I love you, intertubes.

the Hit On List live at La Cave, 23 Feb 2010 from the Hit On List on Vimeo.

Sadly, the Local Music Showcase that happened each Tuesday at La Cave has ended. We had a great last show this week. I opened it with the songs you see above. I would like to thank Paul Hines for hosting a real quality evening of music, Boris Bengin for running the sound and shooting video each week and making sure we all sounded and looked as good as possible, and of course, La Cave for allowing us to hang out in their lounge and play tunes.

Played entirely on instruments ThinkGeek sells. Awesome.

I don’t really know what to think of this video of Kirsten Dunst singing “Turning Japanese.” It combines two of my favorites things — Kirsten Dunst and manga — with one of my least favorite: that damn song. But it would be cool to see Kirsten as a J-pop princess. She needs a reboot. I wrote a song about Kirsten Dunst years ago.

UPDATE: I’ve had to re-embed this video three four times because the content keeps getting removed. Most likely because whoever created it is trying to control its distribution. Which is fruitless and just upsets people like me who like the content and want to share in its distribution. It’s out. Share it.

PS: Here are some stills from the shoot.

I played the Local Music Night on Tuesday at La Cave as I have been doing for 6 weeks or so. Unfortunately, they’re shutting it down after next week’s show.

I played Your Own Yoko, Women Round Me and Nina. Boris recorded the whole show, of course. Of those, only Women Round Me is fit for release (new mp3 on the page). I laughed in the middle of Your Own Yoko and forgot some lyrics. I wouldn’t have a problem with posting that video except that later the sound goes a little screwy on the video so I salvaged what audio I could.
