It’s been a while since I looked though you tube
Talking Heads -Life During Wartime video bootlegg 1980 Featuring Adrian Belew. Awesome.
Adrian Belew (and David Bowie) – Pretty Pink Rose video
King Crimson – Easy Money live 1973, super low quaility
King Crimson – Sleepless video
King Crimson – Elephant Talk Live on “Fridays” in 1981. Awesome. Two of my favorite guitar solos back to back.
King Crimson – thela Hun Jineet From the same show. Great version of Thela.
Merzbow – live in korea
Merzbow – Minus Zero A Merzbow video? Sure, why not.
Killing Joke – Millineum
Killing Joke – 80’s (live>
Killing Joke – Money Is Not Our God
Killing Joke – A New Day. That video is so 80’s it hurts.
Geordie (from Killing Joke) in the studio
Rush – Fly By Night. So 70’s it hurts.
(This is a good point that I’ve thought that Geordie from Killing Joke and Alex from Rush shared some stylistic elements in their guitar playing. Mostly the use of suspended chords featuring lots of open strings, and heavy tones drenched in chorus. Granted, this isn’t a great example of a Rush song like that)
Rush – After Image. A better example of my above comment.
Dead Kennedys – California Uber Alles – Live
Primus – Welcome To This World over a Missy Eliot video. W.T.F
Primus – To Defy The Laws Of Tradition Ancient live version from a radio show.
Primus – Too Many Puppies

Booker T and The MG’s – Green Onions. Totally. Bad. Ass.
Sun Ra’s verison of “Pink Elephants” from Dumbo with the video synced to his version.

Interesting looking Raleigh specific blog.
The power strip that should not be
Not quite the CableThulu I’ve never gotten around to actually building, but close.
road geeks
Every once in a while, I’ll stumble into a little corner of the internet I didn’t know existed.
Today, while looking for interesting roads to ride on, I stumbled upon a large assortment of websites devoted to roads. Big roads, small roads, old roads. And that road geeks exist.
To start with some local flavor, check Ncroads.com and NCRoads.com Annex. Or maybe the NC pages at gribblenation. If you have to get to the end of the road, check out the NC Ends site listing all the highways that end in North Carolina.
For more national info, check out Highway Heaven or US Highway.
Or maybe you just like Road Signs, and more Road Signs.
There is of course, mailing lists, and a newsgroup and a FAQ.
And a portal or two.
You can create Road signs and interstate shields.
Pour out a I-40 for a few of the lost highways,
both famous and not.

Random interesting blogs I stumbled upon today…
processing/context free
All the cool kids seem to be playing with Context Free and Processing these days.
I love the name “Context Free”. I used to always describe a coworkers conversational style as “context free”.
Tim Prentice, interesting kinetic art

Definitely the best review of “Tiger” I’ve seen. Very detailed, and even mostly spin/marketing/zealotry free.
Though, it does certainly dim my expectations of Tiger. “Spotlight” seems to just be the revenge of eazel/ nautilus/ medusa/ fam/ gnome-metadata/ gnome-vfs . (And I suspect, a lot of the same people are involved). Not a bad thing, but definitely not all that the hype promised. Seems like a decent first step though.
Automator sounds quite potentially useful, but hard to say without using it. Any thing that provides easy hooks for extending functionality is always a plus.
Even the shiny marketing hype made Dashboard seem kind of boring and useless, and with more details, it seems even more so. I can only hope there is a scrolling rss reader widget so I can pretend like it’s 1998 again. “Hey dude! It’s not a homepage, it’s a ‘channel’! And it’s on my desktop! Whoa!”.
CoreData should be useful for ISV’s, so hopefully some interesting apps will come out of it.
