The previous Friday video GIF is an all time best. Not sure we'll top that one for awhile but a bootleg pumpkin dance man ain't half bad. Let's get to it.
- Foxwarren - "Deadhead" - Director Joe Cappa should win every award available for this delight. The gift that never stops giving.
- "How to Orchid" with Matt Berry and Jemaine Clement - 12 minutes of this instrument being demo'ed in a way that only these two could do. Dry, frustrating and perfectly amusing.
- Modest Mouse's discography but only every time Isaac Brock says well - actually surprised it's only 93 seconds.
- GBoard Dial Version - a very dumb idea that these Google employees fully commit to. Bravo!
- Catfish Haven on Chic-A-Go-Go - revisited this band recently and stumbled on this performance. Let's all hope that Cable Access TV never goes away. What a gem.
- Ace Frehley on Tom Snyder - I do not consider myself much of a KISS fan, especially their band interviews. However, this one is quite special as Frehley is especially funny and affable the whole time as Gene Simmons wants to look like a bad ass so hard. The silent clash is wonderful. Maybe don't watch the whole thing but skip around to whenever Frehley talks, it's great.
- The Dark Half 1992, DOS Playthrough - for some unknowable reason, the 1992 film The Dark Half was made into a point-and-click video game. On one level it's impressive that this much work was put into such a thing but on another level, why did they do this? It does not look particularly fun but it has some incredible cut scenes. Consider this an endurance challenge - 1 hour of a game you did not know existed about a movie you've probably never heard of.
