Revolutionising the music business on a weekly basis...

Everyone is entitled to my opinion...

 

Politics…

 

Look, I’ll be quick so you can get straight to the photo of Dave, but watching that Tony Abbott interview on the 7.30 Report this week was a true train wreck moment… I mean, where to start?

 

Everyone knows that politicians lie. Fact. So hearing Toy Abbott admitting it live on air was, in itself, hardly surprising. But hearing the response to his comments has been interesting.

 

The fact is, we know we’re being lied to. In every political campaign, we KNOW that some things are true and some things are… umm... less true. The electorate is not that naïve that we believe everything they say is “gospel truth” (thank you Tony). But we want to believe it. We want to be seduced by them… it’s like going out on a date… “Does my bum look big in this?”

 

“Of course it doesn’t… would I lie to you?”

 

Spotify Update

 

Spotify are launching in the Netherlands this month. I wish it was here…

 

This week I tried using Grooveshark for the first time. I don’t know why it’s taken me so long as it’s quite good fun and has plenty of music to choose from. In fact, it is now the first place I go to when I get tired of my iTunes library or listening to anything else in the office.

 

It can be a little tricky when clicking and dragging tracks to your playlist, but for playing whole albums, it’s a no-brainer.

 

In other Spotify news, they have discounted their basic subscription rate to €5. You can read about it here.

 

 

 

 

YouTube Turns Five

So a website has lasted more than five years? Wow, in internet-land that’s like a century!

 

You know the internet is totally mainstream when channel 7’s Sunrise has a segment on YouTube’s most popular videos from the past five years. Somehow it’s now way less interesting knowing that Kochie watches YouTube too.

 

Rather than show you my favourite videos from YouTube from the past five years, (which let’s face it, is going have a LOT of hair metal…) I am going to just show my favourite from the last five days. It combines two of my favourite things; thrash metal and poking fun at Christians. Enjoy.

 

 

 

Fog Blog – Doubling Your David Lee Roth Fix!

I couldn’t believe it when I was doing my “research” for the Fog Blog this week.

 

On my favourite music news aggregator site (The Daly Swarm) I actually found a story about our hero and patron saint, Diamond David Lee Roth. It was a sign from Rock Heaven that I am truly doing God’s (read: Dave’s) work. Amen.

 

Read the article here.

 

 

 

What Would Dave Do?

 

 

I don’t know… I think he’d be pretty cool about it.
