Special hairy edition of the Friday Five to celebrate tomorrow’s Whiskerino & Crafterino festivities. Holding the coveted Golden Chicken trophy for Best Overall (two years running!) is Jack Passion, a World Beard Champion, standing with MC Bill Hammerman.
Hit play and peruse a few pics from the 2009 contest below. Enjoy thoroughly.
Take 5 minutes to watch this insane music video for The Singers ‘Firecoat‘. Do. Not. Miss. The. Ending.
Be sure to check out the director Matt Hewitt’s other vids, too. He’s also the man with the insane Charles Bronson original poster collection. Not to mention an actual bottle of MANDOM.
Ogilvy Labs partnered with LoveLive to offer the first live concert stream from the Ogilvy London office in Canary Wharf. The acoustic show by Turin Brakes just went live and will be available for the next two weeks here.
Holy crap! This mashup’s a few years old but the video’s brand new. Together, they’re freakin’ epicly epic.
Mostly Black Sabbath‘s “War Pigs” and Led Zeppelin‘s “Whole Lotta Love”. With some bits of “Communication Breakdown” and “Black Dog” mixed in, too. Super talented work by Wax Audio. (Thanks, Furr!)
The above was just a regular ‘ole moonrise over some Sonoma vineyards. Tonight’s gonna be a doozy. For the entire northern hemisphere.
This evening’s Autumn Equinox brings the first Super Harvest Moon in 20 years; a rare combo of Summer setting on a full moon. It’ll make nearby Jupiter the second-brightest object in the sky. Step out, crack open some pumpkin beers, and turn up the tunes. Fall’s a-comin’.
For the latest Arcade Fire print (the sixth, I believe) from Burlesque Design North America, they created this video. The show is Wednesday night in St. Paul. All those who aren’t attending can snag the 4-color print on their site Thursday, September 23rd. (via UP)
Robinerd created this 8-bit cover using DrPetter‘s Musagi chip-esque softsynth and sequencer (via BoingBoing). It lacks the dulcet, back-of-throat baritone of the original Trololololololololololo, but keeps the infectious smile and cheer.
I’d love a side-scroller game with this as the soundtrack. As Edward you’d wander around using your mouth’s Trolololo-lazer to happily obliterate buildings, objects, and living creatures in your path. See how many points you’d get before the song’s over. Any developers wanna take this on?
