If those don’t strike yer fancy, then how about something from Barbara Walter’s year end “Fascinating People” list? Except for the bizarre question about her sexuality, this video of Babwa Wawa and Rady Gaga is not that interesting of an interview. Although it is worth it to hear Barbara say “Bluffin with my muffin.” Via MOKB.
Those Darlins are coming back to Chicago. Normally I would say, “hey, there an awesome band, but I just saw them,” but not this time. They are opening up for the amazing King Kahn and BBQ Show. Tickets are $15 and its at the Logan Square Auditorium on Dec 2. Who’s in? Norah, you’re back in town, right?
This website hasn’t been the place where I/anyone alerts people about deals, but Restaurant.com has a deal till the 14th for getting $25 gift certificates for $2. There are usually restrictions like not being able to use it on the weekends or having to spend twice the amount you buy. But its a cool way to eat a bunch of food at restaurants you haven’t tried before for cheap. Just use the discount code: FOUR. Check it out here.
Stereogum does a user voted year-end-wrap-up that resembles the MTV Movie Awards with categories like “Indie Rock Crush.” One category, “Best Web Videos,” is actually worthwhile. Check out how out of touch you are just in the last year (or maybe how ‘with it’ you are). If you haven’t seen the Cleveland Tourism video, I recommend you do. Also, I thought the SNL sketch about the Underground Festival was pretty funny without knowing that it was a parody of this video.
