Keep a close eye on your inbox next week as some of you will be getting an email to give you first dibs on an Owngig concert that you’ve been bidding for quite a while. If there’s any tickets left after this first round, then details will appear on our site. There’s also a few other gigs that are getting quite close to that magic moment so as we always say in these emails, keep bidding.
This week on the web we’ve been loving…
This week’s round up is a mixture of the silly and the serious. As it’s Friday and the weekend is almost upon us, let’s start with a bit of fun. Christopher Walken is a scary man in many movies but he’s also great at using his scariness in the service of humour – a fact demonstrated by his star turn in a Fatboy Slim video a few years back. Well this time a straightfaced reading of Lady Gaga’s Poker Face song makes for similar straightfaced mirth.
In a similar silly vein, we found this video of dancing ferrets made us smile due to its pure charm. Plus the fact that they appear to be dancing to an easy listening version of Weezer’s Buddy Holly adds to the appeal. But don’t take our word for it click here.
Now we’ve made you smile we’d like to make you think. There’s been a lot of doom and gloom about what internet downloads have done to music in recent years has done to the artform, which is why this opinion piece by John Harris is a breath of fresh air. Are we living in the Golden Age of Infnite Music? Read for yourself.
Finally a link to bookmark and come back to. We’re almost at the end of the first decade of the millenium and one music blogger has started a ‘list of lists’ documenting all the inevitable best album/gig/single/video etc of the 2000s. Worth a look to see what you missed. See you next week.
