Glitter Parade

gearin up for sxsw, but check this out: played a show with these guys on friday, was doooope:

I ain’t forget about you short stuff:

What’s better than being written up in a dutch pop culture magazine?

It’s maybe a tie between the article title being “Derision: You shake your buttocks on YouTube” and the subtitle to my video being “The sociable convex man.” Oh, and I’m in the company of 3 strippers and some booty dancers. Could be worse.

Also, someone commented on a youtube video and called me an anvil, according to babelfish. I guess that makes me metal? \m/

SXSW is this week so I’ve been trying to get to as many free shows as possible. Yesterday I saw Jack Penate, who I believe have a record coming out on XL soon. Way good! Here’s one of their songs:

Jack Penate - Second Minute or Hour

PS Fujiya and Miyagi put me ont heir official site I am so happy about this, they are fucking awesome.

Hey I got mentioned in NME, a weekly UK music magazine with a billion readers:

They called me fat, though, stupid brits.

I’ll be back dancing soon, as soon as I stop eating.

(In case you missed it, I was on spin.com too, but they totally borked the link…)

Gotta, run, but here we go:

Sergio Mendes and Brasil 66 - With a Little Help from my Friends

You can also hear a crappy punk version I recorded this weekend here.

As requested by Ken C:

Wham - Wake Me Up Before You Go Go

Guys, I am not the number one search for “glitter parade” on youtube. This is:

I am honored to be in such company.

Since I left you last, Kayla’s gotten sick (she’s better), I’ve got a new job (it’s WAY better), I’ve cut my hair and shaved, put up shelves in the dance-cave, and generally been doin’ pretty swell. I’m sorry I left you guys. It won’t happen again (for a while). I think I’m probably going to move to three times a week to avoid burnout and keep the songs fresh, but we’ll see. Maybe more, if you guys will leave comments / use that fancy IM box up there (assuming I’m online) / just plain old e-mail me!

Without further adieu, here’s two for the price of one (plus the bonus archival from yesterday!)

First: Black Before Red - Underneath Gold - My buddy Kevin is the bassist in this band. They are awesome. Check their myspace for more info. If you want their CD, e-mail me and I will buy one for you and send it to you (if you paypal me the moneys, 10bux).

Second: Quincy Jones feat. Bill Cosby - Hicky Burr - As I was posting this to youtube this showed up as a “related video.” I am so honored. It is so amazing.

Edit: Cross-posting to my livejournal now. Hey livejournal!

Alright guys, I’m back on the scene tomorrow, probably just 3 days a week (but maybe more!) E-mail me if you have suggestions, or leave them in the comments, or if I’m online, you can use the meebo box at the top of the page. In the meantime, here’s a leftover from December that never got posted:

Peter Bjorn & John - Young Folks
