Greetings from the new geek…

This is Molly, I’ll be posting on here now. If you want to get an idea who I am you can check out my website at FunnyHairpin.com. To get things rolling here’s one of my latest musical finds.

I just discovered Morningwood‘s new EP, Sugarbaby. It’s totally chick rock and I love it.

You may know their song “Nth Degree” from their last album, if nothing else you heard it on the Nissan commercial. I kinda liked the self-titled album, but I’m ADORING the new EP. Much more rock and way less schizophrenic.

Even better is the video, featuring a Muppet like you’ve never seen.

And if you’d prefer, there is a “clean” version. But who’d want that?

Steve Foley RIP

This sad news comes from Fivehundy in the forums
:
Steve Foley, best known as the drummer who replaced Chris Mars in The Replacements, died over the weekend of a prescription drug overdose. Foley also played drums in Tommy Stinson’s first post-Mats project, Bash and Pop, and several other Minneapolis bands, including Swing Set, Wheelo and The Overtones.

Butler Note: From everything I read about him, he seemed to have it together pretty well so this is a huge surprise to me and makes me extremely sad. The Bash and Pop record is one of my favorite records.
