Science Rocks
 

Just throwing this out there into the wilds of the internet. This Thursday (tomorrow) at the Detroit Science Center there’s a big ol’ bash.

They are showing some of our music videos (and Quack’s) in the Toyota Engineering 4D Theater. 4D? Yes. So much D. So much.

Plus, Zoos of Berlin are playing while an IMAX movie is shown, which will obviously be the best thing ever.

G-damn
 

It seems like Livenation Michigan have been getting more and more horrible each time they have a change in staff. Just got this email (open copied, of course):

Hi guys and gals!!

Would you like to see Saosin, Innerpartysystem, POS, and Eye Alaska play this Saturday night in Detroit, MI at Saint Andrew’s Hall??

Here is what I would like you to do:
Post something about the show on your myspace, facebook, twitter, or artist page.

Here is what I will do:
Get your band into the show for free, and also give 1 pair of tickets to give away on your site.

So post the show update, tell your fans they can win tickets through your site, and then send me the name of the winner.

Thank you,
Chad Verwey

Ever get tired of just imitating Britt Daniel in your own, not very cool-sounding voice?  Now you can rest your pipes and yelp with just a click of the mouse.  It’s probably the only (quasi)useful website I’ve ever made, so I hope you like it.

Drummer from the Sword offering drum lessons
 

I think this might be a joke, but I can’t tell. Maybe it’s an outward expression of an inside joke.

Drummer from the Sword posted this:

I’ve totally lost my mind and decided to offer drum lessons here in Austin.
My rates are very economical starting at $40/hr.

I am only interested in SERIOUS students who want to WORK and learn how to really destroy on both the mental and physical planes.

Here’s my email:

wingoschool@​gmail.​com

DO NOT:
1.) REPLY TO THIS POST.
2.) ABUSE THIS EMAIL ADDRESS - ONLY THOSE SERIOUSLY INTERESTED IN INSTRUCTION SHOULD CONTACT ME - THIS IS NOT FOR FAN TRIVIA.

Best Regards,

1) The Barefoot Burglar

I want to see this movie so bad. These people are kind of awesome too.
