Kammi's Entertains You!

My last post was kind of depressing. Despite the ending I tacked on to make it optimistic.


I'd feel like a jerk if I left the day on a sour note...

Let me entertain you!

 

No, not with my usual panty photos (though if I need to throw those in to keep your attention, I wouldn't mind!) - but cool stuff I found on the internet while convalescing?

Who doesn't like discovering new music?

Check out English Softhearts. They broke up in the 90's but just put out a new album which is definitely the greatest thing you'll ever hear in your life. No doubt. And I'm clearly not just saying that because my boyfriend's in the band and I made bet him I'd get his YouTube video more hits.

 

In case you watched that and realized you hate "snot punk"...

My next addition is my friend, Dan (Deacon). He's a relatively well-known electronic musician and is, apparently, now friends with Val Kilmer or something. I'll get to rub it in his face if he suddenly becomes more popular due to my linking to him. And then I'll be friends with Val Kilmer.

 

And, in case you hate puppets, I'll make up for it:

My final musical suggestion is my friend Sean, aka Langhorne Slim. I'm not sure of his genre, but if folky/bluegrass-esque. His live shows are particularly fun and I occasionally get to dance on stage! And, yes, I'm an amazing dancer!

 

 

And if that's not your taste:

I don't know much about Sound Cloud, but it's apparently a good place to either upload your own music, or search for new bands. My friend Snorre, who goes by The North, has a Sound Cloud page.

And he looks like Kurt Cobain.

But since I've been in bed all day, surfing the net and watching Toddlers and Tiaras,

I thought I'd show you cool sites I found!

I'm not totally familiar with exactly what Flavor Pill is intended as culture guide of listing of city events. But, so far, I've been rabidly devouring their blog - particularly because they cover art and literature. Which is particularly interesting, if you've suddenly developed an interest in photography. 

Though I admit, there's a difference between this -

And this -

But there's a bright future, ahead!

Of particular interest to readers interested in art (or philosophy of art) is Art21's blog. And for those of us who don't have TV, PBS's website streams full length programming to watch when you're, you know, sick in bed.

Also on the "total examination of culture" side is TV Tropes - a very strange and wonderful examination of the way various media uses literary technique. I'm not sure if it's a wiki (numerous editors, ala my beloved Wikipedia), but the writing on the site itself, is quite good.

Of course, if you'd prefer something more mature, I have to give props to Solarotica, an "associate" of mine's blog, focusing on self-composed, well-polished erotic writing! 

I'd come up with more "entertainment on the internet" ideas, but I just got shot with a mega-migraine out of nowhere.

Think I need to rest a little more....
