Song of the Day – Friday 2/26/2010 Yeah Yeah Yeahs
MizMuze was out waaaaay past her bed time last night at the Noisepop Zee Avi show at the Rickshaw Stop (more on that later). So…no new band for today’s SOTD. Can’t go wrong with YYY’s, and this song needs no explanation—just watch and listen…
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – skeletons

Funny or Die’s Drunk History – Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln
After two bottles of wine there may be a little distortion in the retelling of the history of Frederick Douglass, but Jen Kirkman gives it a go with the help of Don Cheadle and Will Ferrell…see the whole 5-minute video on HBO’s comedy series Funny or Die…

Song of the Day – Thursday 2/25/2010 Cold Cave
Do you miss the days when you were all about black—clothes, eyeliner, nail polish, lipstick, attitude? Your jet-black hair hanging in front of your face as you stood in the corner listening to New Order and Joy Division and thinking, “only Ian Curtis really understands me.” Well now that you’re all growns up, relive your painful youth with Philly’s (now based in New York) Cold Cave; only now you realize love won’t tear you apart, but love comes close…and just when you think you’ve got Cold Cave pegged as New Order Redux, listen to “Life Magazine” for a disco dance-ready happy-go-lucky “now you’re part of the in-crowd” jam…
