fuzmeister: Chuck Berry Endorses Obama

---

Obama rocks harder than McCain. It's a proven fact now that the great Chuck Berry has given his endorsement for the democratic presidential nominee.

Apparently, McCain was interested in using Berry's tune Johnny B. Goode during his campaign as well.

Well, Mr. McCain, hopefully you'll consider using something more up your alley, like Scott Joplin. Actually, he probably would've endorsed Obama too. Tough luck, ol' buddy.

Mood: Rockin
Music: Chuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode

Sadness. Bo Diddley has passed away.

I heard it on the radio this afternoon and was quite saddened to hear of his passing.

fuzmeister: Pork + Beans

---

This is the new Weezer video for the song Pork and Beans. It's definitely got a cool style to it, but what I want to point out is all the cameos by YouTube "stars." Overall, I found it quite interesting... but why does Rivers Cuomo have that creepy mustache?

Mood: Amused

fuzmeister: Might have found a new drummer

---

So there is a good possibility that Steve Thompson's new drummer will be none other than Stephen Peck (States of Melba, ex-Zao). I'm not 100% sure on any of it yet, but there's a good chance.

Here are some videos from last weekend's States of Melba show (probably their last). You can see that I am playing bass in the corner all sad and lonesome.


Moon Bones


Just The Head of an Unassembled Cyborg


Lost Innocence / Phantom Cyclist

Sorry about the bad recording quality. Thanks for Jon Atkins for forwarding these to me.

Mood: Eh
Music: George Harrison - The Lord Loves The One (That Loves The Lord)

fuzmeister: Soul Coughing

---

They were one of the most creative bands of the 1990s. Anyone else a fan of these guys? Last night, Kate and I went to see Mike Doughty (ex-frontman of Soul Coughing) with Dave Trinh and his girlfriend (as well as Steve Scott).

I don't know. He's got a tight live act and solid solo career going, but I don't think he will ever measure up in terms of innovation as when he was with his old band.

Mood: In Thought
Music: Soul Coughing - Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago
