I love finding/being showed hidden gems on the internet cause there's a lot of funny stuff and talented people out there. This is where Dave steps in as Champion of the internets. He just finds all sorts of amazing artists all the time. We literally spent most of last night watching YouTube, an activity I rarely partake in since I'm an internet searching failure. I just can't sit there on the computer for hours and entertain myself, I suck at finding cool shit; always have.
Last night I was simply BLOWN AWAY when I heard Dave listening to this:
He said and I quote, "stuff like this makes me want to quit music. They're just so good."
Totally check out more from Pomplamoose, a duo group from San Francisco. Visit their YouTube page (check out the playlist section), add them to Facebook and pick up some of their mp3's on their myspace page. Awesome.
I can totally see Dave getting into something like this with his music, it's simply a matter of time. He should be creating music for a living, it's the thing that makes him so happy. I'm a huge supporter of enjoying what you do for a living. I'm still entertained at my job, buuut, owning a bar sure would be fun too...
The living room has been completely empty,
a fully furnished bedroom
and has finally transformed into Dave's recording studio.
I think the best part of having a studio in the house is that I get to hear the creative process in action. Dave's puttering around consists of a bit of guitar playing, some classical piano, some pop/trance tracks and of course, some Lego Star Wars.
Dave is the one who showed me that it's ok to like Lady Gaga if you are a man. She's an AMAZING artist. A certain YouTube clip of hers frequents DeWalt often. Who doesn't love Gaga??? Pomplamoose does:
If you watch a bunch of their videos you'll see just how hipster they are. Oh ya! Speaking of hipster, I've been wanting to find a way to write about more about the OK Go show!
I have no idea how I got such a cool shot with a simple point and shoot. They had laser guitars; almost as cool as laser sharks. |
OFF TO THE SHOW!!! (some of us were excited)
Before OK Go started, I went to the bar even though I really didn't need any more drinks cause I was pretty good to go already. Then who do I run into but someone from work. It was odd cause the guy is all higher up and stuff and here he is at a completely hipster venue. I know I wasn't dressed like my work self and I kept wondering if he dressed like this normally or not. Yes, I was judging.
The show; amazing.
We were pretty close. |
YES!!! That bells song! |
Custom jackets! |
Look at all the swooning going on over there. Lead singer guy is like two rows away. |
