Boston Concert Recommendation

Two of my current favorite bands are playing together @ House of Blues in Boston on April 29.

If you like indie pop/rock dance jams, you should definitely go to this show.

Penguin Prison is opening.  I saw them in LA last month: they fucking OWNED the stage.  Their album is great: check it out on Spotify. I have a feeling they could get big.  Also, I ended up partying w' the drummer & keyboard player til 6am: cool dudes.



Miike Snow is headlining.  They are a bit more well-known, are releasing a new album this Spring, and I  am excited to see them at Coachella a few weeks before they head to the East Coast.  Their previous album is on Spotify.  If you still don't have Spotify, I don't think we can be friends anymore.

So yea, that is my Spring concert recommendation for those of you residing in the Greater Boston Area.  You will dance your face off: I promise.

Call Your Girlfriend Dance Off

Robyn is a master of pop-y dance hits (Show Me Love is in my Top 10 of All Time Songs). And her latest is no exception. The song and video have been out for months, but I just saw it and it's too awesome not to share.



Also too awesome not to share is the recreation of the video in a tiny office at Saturday Night Live, by Taran Killam and bunch of flashlights. It's remarkably accurate.



Happy New Year!

URGENT--DANCING CORRECTLY AT HIGH SCHOOL DANCES

This just in.

After ENDLESS searching, and ONE question to a friend who magically sent the link straightaway,

Here it is.

for those of you who can't watch the video, here's a preview of what you'll see:

first and foremost.

appropriate dancing

innapropriate dancing.

my middle name is danger.

that's actually a problem?

self-explanatory.

and they bring it home with some quasimodo breakdancing.

enjoy, and always dance appropriately at our school dances. thank you.

Turquoise Jeep Records

I hope that by now everyone has seen this. If not, you must watch before reading any further.

The screenshot alone should be enough to get you to watch this.

Young Humma and the Turquoise Jeep Records team have been coming up with these amazing 1990's ghetto-ass songs for about a year. One day, they were too broke to fix their torquoise Jeep, so they created some YouTube videos to hopefully make enough hits that someone would notice them, help them get Internet Famous and then, they wouldn't be broke anymore.

It worked.

Rappers on their "record label" include such amazing names as DJ Tummiscratch and Watchamacallit performing classic songs like:

Shuyamouf (Just say it out loud)

Fried or Fertilized 

Their entire record is available for download on iTunes. I highly suggest it.

Now, IMHO the only actually talented guy to come out of this is a man named Flynt Flossy. He is a rapper/beat artist that has the sweetest dance moves I've seen in a long time. Wish I had those skills. This is his single, I Like to Dance and he has an actual dance instructional DVD coming out this year.
