POPULAR INTERNET CATS SING THE HITS
Found on Buzzfeed is this mash-up from Rathergood of all your favorite cats singing your favorite cat songs. Rathergood, you will recall, has been doing weird and entertaining things with animals for a long time. Remember the rats singing in the Quizno’s commercials? Yeah, that’s them. They’re still going with all the weird mash-ups, after all these years.
THE DEAD KENNEDYS PREDICTED THE FUTURE
Blowing up on Digg is the evidence that the Dead Kennedys could see the future, and they had the right idea 28 years ago. Jello Biafra and the gang were certainly ahead of their time, and they did everything they could to help kill the recording industry. Hey, Jello, how about offering the full Alternative Tentacles library in free download form?
GUITARIST WITH NO ARMS PLAYS WITH HIS FEET
Check out this hot video from YouTube. This guy plays better than most of the guitarists we know… with his feet! The guitarist, named Mark Goffeney, leads a band called Big Toe. He’s better than most of the crap on the radio, and he’s doing it all hands free.
FLASHBACK: PUNK ICON PATTI SMITH SINGING “YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE” ON ’80s KIDS’ SHOW
One of the punkest women to ever live (and one of the 20 Women Who Rocked Our Asses), Patti Smith, apparently appeared on an ’80s Kids TV show, called “Kids Are People, Too,” and sang one of the wimpiest songs ever recorded, “You Light Up My Life.” Prepare to have your mind blown and lose just a little bit of respect for Patti Smith.
NOEL GALLAGHER QUITS OASIS AFTER WHINY DRAMA WITH HIS BROTHER
Noel Gallagher has quit the band Oasis. (Who knew they were still around?) The partnership ended after some sort of altercation with his brother, Liam, with who he co-founded the band. On quitting, Noel said “People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.” Shut up, shut up, shut up.
LYNYRD SKYNYRD DRUMMER “FORGOT” TO REGISTER AS A SEX OFFENDER
Ex-Lynyrd Skynyrd drummer Artimus Pyle is facing charges in Florida for failing to register as a sex offender when he recently moved to to the state. We assumed he was moving into a retirement village, considering he’s like a million now. Pyle says it’s all a mix up and he didn’t mean to break the law. Ooops!
