Sellaband

Interesting concept. Pimp your favorite struggling local band, invest a little dough, and get a cut if they succeed.

Boy-Band Member: "I like Boys"


Lance Bass, his eyebrows tweezed beyond repair, has disclosed that he is a member of the homosexual persuasion. In much the same way you would release the information, Lance chose a cover story in a respectable weekly mag. Although this is about as surprising as George Michael or RIchard Chamberlain outing themselves, the news is expected to devastate the boy-band community.

If everything had worked out he would have been the first gay boy-band astronaut.

As always, noone anywhere has any interest in any aspect of Joey Fatone's life.
Now about Justin Timberlake...

Nonagon at the Bottom Lounge this Thursday

nonagonposter.jpg

Well it looks like the swell folks at MP Productions and The Bottom Lounge liked us well enough to make us their Johnny-on-the-spot... no, not the portable toilet... Rather, a last minute addition to an AMAZING bill at The Bottom Lounge THIS WEEK!

The Bottom Lounge is located at 3206 N. Wilton (right underneath the Belmont Red/Brown line El Stop)

On Thursday, December 2nd, the doors will open at 8PM. Shortly after that, we (Nonagon) will play a set similar to the one we played a couple of weeks ago (unless we can throw together a surprise or two). I think that Behold! The Living Corpse is up next, then Pines, a local instrumental combo, and finally Big Business featuring ex-Karp and Murder City Devils members!

Oh yeah! To the left should be a snapshot of the (can I say "kick-ass"?) poster that Jay Ryan designed and Mat Daly printed for us. If you haven’t yet been to The Bird Machine, you are missing out.

Jon Stewart For President?

Morrissey, yes that Morrissey, would like us all to consider "Jon Stewart for a future president of the USA. In the meantime, he would like us to all vote for John Kerry to "bring sanity and intelligence back to the United States".

L=Nickleback1 :: R=Nickleback2

Someone took the time to mix Nickleback's last two hits into a single mp3 file in which song one is in the left channel and song two is in the right. The tempos, breaks and everything matches up. Talk about cookie cutter rock.

Malpractice

Remember this diagnosis:

"I called the doctor on the telephone
Said Doctor, Doctor, please
I got this feeling
rocking and a'reeling
tell me, what can it be, is it some new disease?

They call it Boogie fever
You got to boogie down
Boogie fever, I think it's going around"

Well, apparently, it was really lung cancer.

Should he get a clue???

Steve Burns, the former host of kiddie TV fave ÒBlueÕs Clues,Ó has moved onto his next career with a new indie album called, ÒSongs for Dustmites.Ó

Uh- do you think Blue will sing back-up..."squeak, squeak"?

Please post a comment to this - so I think I am not the only person who sometimes tunes into the show.

Me Likey Hairy Bellys and TuTus.

If you haven't read about it yet..... The new Foo Fighter's video featuring my oddest personal crushes to date: Jack Black and Dave Grohl, was banned. Watch the video and tell me if you can figure out why. (I just can't seem to find anything offensive).

Jack Lemmon, part 2

To all the Jack Lemmon fans I've offended in the past, I'd just like to say I have no opinion on the death of ex-Beatle George Harrison.

The Hendrix/Asteroid/Microsoft Incident

What if you looked like Sonny Bono and could account for almost every moment in Jimi Hendrix's life and then Paul Allen screwed you out of your moment of fame?

Hell, you'd write a book and put together the Rock Prophecy Timeline so the whole world could see!

Lymphoma didn't kill Joey Ramone; Carson "Carcinogen" Daly killed Joey Ramone

Joey Ramone died on April 15, 2001, in a world where the bloated, boring, blonde-and-blue-eyed records he and his colleagues flipped-off are more popular than Peter Frampton could ever have imagined. Our culture is crumbling; a pop stake was driven through poor Joey's heart. Making the Band documents the corporate manufacture of O-Town, whose album was subsequently certified platinum, providing further testament to the public's inability to think or feel.

Satancide - Now that's a Band

A Spinal Tap-like send-up of big-haired, Jersey Shore metal. Lead singer Devlin Mayhem wails like Axl Rose on crack, performing so strenuously that he needs a 10-minute break after the first song. He's backed by Baron Klaus Von Goaten, who preens in a silver mask, licks his own hair, and grunts epithets in bad German; and drummer Sloth Vader.

There are impediments to the band's success, though. "A reputable record company wanted to sign us for $5000," announced Mayhem at the apex of the evening. "But we don't have that kind of money."
