Thesis delivered and it's TV season! So much to watch and so little time. That might change soon as Pushing Daises has not been picked up for season 2.5 and thus ends with 22 episodes. What a shame. It's probably one of my favorite shows. Fullers talents will not go to waste as he is likely to return to Heroes, but still, it's not the same. Unfortunately it seems they ended with a cliffhanger that obviously will not be followed up so it's too bad they weren't able to wrap up the series. It's talk of continuing the series in cartoon form so that the story will continue there, but it's all rather new, so we will see. I know I'm going to watch the last 4 or 5 episodes religiously with as much candy, hot chocolate and attention they deserve. On that not I'm going to go cry a little in the bath room, brb.


Ok, all cried out and ready to move on. Guitar hero seems to be the everyman's rock dream, and there's nothing like cranking up the star power and go full out! Now, I'm still on medium so I shouldn't brag too much, but these guys are pretty awesome!

Jubilee with Maynard and Trent

This has to be a great partnership :D Maynard James Keenan contributed with some vocals on this track by Jubilee, and Trent Reznor programmed the drumbeats for it.

Tool

Damn youtube and it's "related videos" section... you can end up there for hours! Anyways, I was doing some music video searches and ended up finding some Tool interviews. Tool is a band that does very few interviews but there are a couple on there. Thought I'd post one of them here. Everyone in the band keeps a low profile and as the vocalist and "main figure" of the band, Maynard is by the music industry portrayed as an almost mythical creature. I for one admire how they let the music take first place, cause to be honest that is the main thing. Another thing is that Tool's music is quite rich so to give the music its full attention during a consert I find it refreshing that they don't try to give us a flaming show with the band members raising hell, but rather let the music and backdrop images play together to create the ultimate visual and auditory experience. With that being said, I think it's about time they do a score for a movie.
