Random people are standing out to me in the media right now. He's a few to note;
San Francisco Giant and Cy Young Award winning pitcher Tim Lincecum was caught with marijuana in his car after being stopped for speeding on October 30th. He's only facing a misdemeanor which is cool I suppose. If anything this gives me a reason to sort of like the Giants next season. This is where I make the obligatory joke about him and Michael Phelps smoking pot together and everyone laughs at me for how current I am. Did you laugh? Alright, moving on.
Rivers Cuomo fronted alt-mainstream-mega-geek-hip-rockband Weezer released their latest CD last week. For the uninformed, Raditude is the 7th album for a band that hasn't been relevant (or good) since 1995. Rivers Cuomo seems to be working hard on alienating his fan base while trying to up his street-cred by having 'Lil Wayne rap on one of the tracks. I'm having a hard time convincing myself I still love this band when I listen to a lament about an alcoholic father from 1993 to songs dealing with wanting a pool in Beverly Hills and Partying in 2005 and 2009 respectively. Rivers also took time to dance in his underwear with Taylor Swift for a Band Hero commercial. The jokes never seem to end. Sidebar to Activision here; Stick with Heidi Klum.
Finally, after years of trying to either look like a woman or Lestat (I've yet to figure out which one exactly), lead singer of AFI Davey Havok has finally cut his hair. I've yet to decide if this is due to the fact that either a) He's going bald b) He's pulling a Metallica or c) He realized that long haired vampires are so 1998 and is trying to look more like Edward Cullen.
There you have it. Another blogger complaining about Weezer, talking about pot, and making vampire jokes.
With original material like that I'm bound to finally make this a success.
