Guess what we’ve been Netflixing this week… ;)

This morning I ran across a video of Aaron that Janelle had sent me awhile ago. It’s really cool and I wish we coulda been there that night! Crowd sounds pumped too…

I really like this song by Apes and Androids. I wrote the band and asked them where I could get their album and they said they don’t have one yet but maybe in the fall. Darn! I hope they hurry up- more songs would make this hot summer more cool… heh. The video is pretty fun too. I’m really liking some of these new lip synch vids hitting the tubes these days.

Lip Dubbing: Endless Dream from Jakob Lodwick and Vimeo.

I am in debt to Gary Shipes for the rest of my life. He introduced me to Hal Hartley’s work back in the early 90s and to this day, Simple Men is, hands down, my all-time favorite film, ever. I love all of Hartley’s work but this one still stands above all. When Gary handed me that glorious dubbed copy, labeled ever so neatly in his flawless, block handwriting, he told me that this would be a film by which I would judge all future films… he was absolutely correct.

I lost contact with Gary after Tim and I moved to Texas and became tangled up in life & school. If you ever run into him, please tell him “Thank You” for me- his suggestions in film and music changed my life…my perceptions of all forms of art altered forever…in a very, very good way. :)

Looking forward to May 22: Fay Grim

Another one I’ll probably never get tired of watching.
This just cracks me up…

I just absolutely love this video and have watched it something like 10 times in the last month or so. Tonight, I ran across it again on Rodrigo’s MySpace page. I think that I like the last set the best and will probably never get tired of watching the whole thing. :)
