News of the Weird...
This is news of the wild!
This is for all the vanilla 'popular' bands out there -
Europe's prog-rock band, Nightwish, has over 25.6 MILLION hits on their YouTube video for Amaranth:
Yes, that's 25.6 MILLION views!!!!! Gotta be a music industry record...
MOVIE REVIEWS
Watched quite a few in the past week...
TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE FALLEN - B
Leave your brain at the door and just enjoy the eye candy!
ICE AGE: DAWN OF THE DINOSAURS - B+
"Buck" and the baby T--Rexes steal the show - and the 3D is amazing! (And I am a total junkie for this series...)
HORTON HEARS A WHO - C+
NetFlix rental. Dr. Seuss is weird enough and the movie tries to make it weirder...
RIFF TRACKS: PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE - B+
Officially one of the most awful movies ever made - and the only way to watch it is with Riff Tracks from the guys who gave us Mystery Science Theater 3000!
And the photo of the day:
God Bless America! Happy Fourth of July everyone!

Thanks for the links. I love Fridays on your blog. There's always good stuff. Loved the video. I was so intent on watching the video, I didn't pay much attention to the music!

Glad everyone enjoys the Friday post - it's my favorite one as well. I've never had to scrap to find good articles, either, and this week it was overload!
Thanks for the info, Diane. I especially like the Esspreso Book Machine thingy. I’m wondering if that’s going to change the future of book marketing, selling, and publishing Happy Fourth!
