For those of ya’ll interested in The Dead Weather, the whole cd is playing on them facebooks. Jack White is becoming what I imagine Prince is to another generation. My theory is that there is a large group of people that will always buy a Prince stuff not based on what they hear, but what they have heard before. His albums always do well regardless of radio play or his crazy marketing schemes. I will always buy music that Jack White puts out regardless of whether I have heard it or not because he hasn’t let me down yet.  And now he has a subscription service available from his Third Man Records.  For a fee, you can get a couple 7″ a year plus t-shirts and other things as a member.

(for those of you who don’t know, “Eddie” refers to eddie lopez, a former joke street guard who works in the signature room at the hancock. and the only reason it’s signed “trav” is because he had to go to ‘work’ and didn’t have enough time to finnish signing his name.)

i tip my hat to you austin, you sly little devil, i have a feeling you and math college are going to get along REAL well.

For those of you who have forgotten it was sometime forty years ago that my name-sake, Neil Armstrong, and Buzz Aldrin took those first glorious steps for mankind. Well since then little did I know Buzz Aldrin’s been working hard, where you ask, well in the studio of course with Snoop Dogg and Talib Kweli. Here’s a behind the scenes look at the new cut off his latest album. I can’t wait for it to drop into stores.

happy father’s day all, now here’s some appropriate poop/diaper humor for all you fathers out there
