The Pelican’s Perch

It took two tries and was a long time coming, but my interview with Detektivbyran, my current favorite instrumental band, is finally here.  I sent the questions, both your questions and mine, to the band right as they embarked on their tour for Wermland, and Anders was kind enough to sit down and answer the [...]

Last night’s Family Guy was hilarious.  It was mainly Peter becoming obsessed with the old 60’s song “Surfin Bird” by the Trashmen, which is annoying as can be, and then he meets Jesus and tries to help him reveal himself to the world.  I’d never heard that song before, but even though Peter sings it [...]

I mentioned that Ben Folds would be on Conan last night, and here’s the video!  Whoo!  Figured most of you would enjoy watching it.  Watch the music video for the song too.  It was directed by Tim and Eric from Adult Swim’s Tim and Eric Awesome Show and is really weird, and pretty funny.

Here’s a nice little heads up for you.  Ben Folds is going to be singing is first single, “You Don’t Know Me”, with special guest Regina Spektor tonight on Conan.  I don’t know about you, but I plan on watching that.  Should be good stuff.
Sorry I’ve been gone for awhile as far as posting goes.  [...]

Dexter - S.3.Ep.1 - “Our Father”
I’d say Dexter is pretty easily one of my favorite shows on tv.  It may even get the top spot.  If you’re a fan already, you’ve probably followed both seasons so far and know exactly what I’m saying.  If you haven’t had the chance to see it, or thought it [...]

If I can find it each week, then I’ll post the latest episodes from each week’s It’s Always Sunny.  If you haven’t seen it, the show is mainly improv style feeling like Seinfeld on crack.  Usually no plot and always good for a lot of laughs.  Here’s the first two episodes of the new season.
S.4, [...]

Has anyone been watching the Ryder Cup?  I’m a golfer myself, so I can watch it on tv fine without feeling the need to call it the most boring sport in the world.  But, today’s matches were as intense as golf gets in my opinion.  There were more “USA!” chants during today’s matches than there [...]

Ah, I love it.  I got a simple, unassuming email today with the header, “An Open Letter to Pitchfork from Airborne Toxic Event”.  I smiled immediately knowing exactly what the email would contain; another ridiculously harsch review and a very well thought out, subtlely sarcastic response back from the band.  SOUND Team went the more [...]

Crazy, crazy times lately over on my end.  Sorry for the lack of posts, but I ended up traveling to Kansas City for work from last Friday until this past Tuesday.  And while there I hung out with my family, saw the most God awful Chiefs game imaginable (getting drunk by 10am because of tailgating [...]
