A few hours I attended a concert from the legendary metal band GWAR. For those that aren’t familiar with GWAR, they’re a heavy metal group that combines over the top theatrics, controversial lyrical content, and a clever mix of political and social satire. If you want more information on those guys, check out their website.
Anyway, a typical GWAR concert involves the "deaths" of several popular figures, including George W. Bush and the Pope. From here, fake blood (among other substances) is spewed all over the crowd while paired with a soundtrack often filled with death and destruction. For those who "get it", it’s a mix of the darkest of dark comedy and entertainment, and quite frankly is an awesome concert. This is my second time seeing GWAR in concert, and here are some videos from the show:
As you may have heard already, a video of everyone’s favorite conservative Bill O’Reilly has surfaced which shows him losing his cool during his days on Inside Edition. Of course, this comes to everyone’s surprise considering that Bill is such a lovable, open-minded individual who is composed of nothing but journalistic integrity. The video was released this Monday, and it is already one its way to becoming a huge internet sensation. As with every video that gains popularity on the interwebs, parodies and remixes are sure to follow. Let’s take a look at a few of these remixes and parodies after we look at the original video:
This weekend I was itching to pick up a case of "everyday" beer. For me, there are beers for all types of occasions. Some beer is meant to be enjoyed in small quantities (depending on hammered I want to get), while others are for special occasions such as reviews or sampling. So I walked into the beer distributor (yeah, Pennsylvania has "distributors", you can’t buy beer in grocery stores or gas stations) and picked up a sampler case from Redhook Ale Brewery. Having enjoyed their ESB beer on tap, I decided to give this a try. Lets see if this IPA is stand out amongst the other beers in the sampler pack.
So I’m sitting here in a hotel room in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania on a business trip. I’m watching Wheel of Fortune and I’m drinking beer so I figured, what better time to update my site? Earlier today, I visited the Appalachian Brewing Company in downtown Harrisburg and sampled some of their beer (as well as picking up a six pack for the hotel). Perhaps I’ll give one of their beers a review if I don’t drink it all tonight.
Anyway, here’s a video that I dug up on Youtube starring former WWE wrestler Ahmed Johnson. You see, old Ahmed wasn’t exactly the best on the microphone. In fact, his interviews and promo’s caused more people to scratch their heads rather than to be excited for his wrestling matches. So when Ahmed was forced to cut not one, but four promo’s for the Playstation game WWF Warzone, hilarity and confusion ensued. Luckily there is this video that subtitles three of these promo’s with interesting results:
