Vampire Weekend

Well folks, it's time for "Things that are Awesome" which hasn't been around in a long while, but is bound to make a comeback starting with:

Vampire Weekend by Vampire Weekend.

Vampire Weekend is comprised of four guys who went to Columbia together, and put together an African style of music together, all the while singing and integrating fantastic lyrics into their music. My favorite song of theirs is "Oxford Comma" and you should all hop on YouTube and check it out.

Things that are awesome...

Shirt.Woot.Com's December 26th's Shirt o' The Day.

Two things...

The First thing is that Cameron Crowe has a new project. I don't know what it is, but: CAMERON CROWE HAS A NEW FUCKING PROJECT.

Also the final one-sheet (that's a poster people) has landed for Southland Tales. Now, this flick has been ...held back for-fucking-ever. No joke. The poster looks serious as hell, but it stars Dwanye "The Rock" Johnson, Seann William Scott, Sarah Michelle Gellar (looking hot on the poster even if it is just half her face), Mandy Moore, Jon Lovitz, Kevin Smith, Cheri Oteri, and among others, Justin Timberlake...who may or not be on the poster there...I'm not sure. Regardless, I've got a plot outline for you, and if you liked Donnie Darko you may very well love this flick. I mean, it just sounds fucking intriguing. Anyway, here it is.:



California is at the epicenter of a political and environmental disaster that threatens to destroy the world in this ambitious fusion of comedy, drama, dystopia science fiction, and music. In the year 2005, a nuclear attack wipes out part of the state of Texas, and three years later America is a virtual police state, with the government taking control of nearly every part of people's lives, supposedly for their own good. A German firm has found a way to generate energy using seawater, but both public and private concerns are desperate to prevent the new technology from being introduced in the gasoline-starved United States. A Marxist underground based on the West Coast is determined to bring down the federal government through violent revolution. In this midst of this chaos, we follow a number of stories that continually return to three principle characters. Boxer Santaros (The Rock) is an actor famous for his role in action films; he's trying to secure financing for a new project, but reality keeps mirroring the events in his script and he struggles to hold on to his identity following a bout with amnesia. Krysta Now (Sarah Michelle Gellar) is a porn star (yay) who is reinventing herself as a television pundit offering her views on politics, contemporary culture, and teenage sex. And Roland Taverner (Seann William Scott) is an L.A. police officer whose identity has mysteriously split in two and he struggles to track down his other half.

Paolo Nutini's Last Request (Things that are Awesome)

I don't know what it is about music. Something just happens to me, and I'm taken over. I love music. I always have. From Barry Manilow to the Beach Boys to the Arctic Monkeys, I just love music. Paolo Nutini is no exception. He incorporates an amount of soul and acoustic sound that's almost too good for words. His song "Last Request" had me mesmerized for a moment while I watched the video on VH1 the other night. I don't know why it too me so long to write, but regardless said song is fantastic. I will definitely attempt to buy the album too, because yes, I do buy albums occasionally.

Black people hate me, cause I rhyme better.

Okay, maybe that's a lie. I don't know. I'm wasted right now on Tequila and Budlight, and feeling quite loopy after watching Dave Attell's Insomniac Vol. 1. Therefore, I don't know what I'm even doing right now! Fuck the heck!? Regardless, I would suggest that everyone go to their local Circuit City and buy Rooney Calling the World for the 6.99 that it's going for. It's a phenomenal album, and you should own it.

AND!
