Road trip! Who wants to go?

I came across a sketch revue show opening in Chicago in a few months, and from what I’ve seen so far it’ll be great. It’s called “It’s Good For You” and takes a dark, satiric look at high school, abortion, the media, and why we believe what we think is the truth. There are a few preview videos on YouTube, a couple of which I lol’d at very heartily. Here’s my favorite:

Tickets are $10 apiece and it’s at the Gorilla Tango theatre in Chicago. I’m seriously thinking about going.

Remixing Brad Sucks

The lazy remixer guy rides again. I have been a fan of Brad Sucks since April 2006 or so and at times I’ve been known to play around with the source to his albums. This past week, the second Brad Sucks CD, “Out of It“, was released unto the world and all was grand. Then came the source and me playing with it. I noticed that two of the tracks I had the source to had the same tempo and decided to see what I could do to twist them together. I slapped the drum track of “Understood by Your Dad” onto the rest of “Total Breakdown” and it fit perfectly. It’s almost like Brad himself had hidden two pieces of a puzzle in his album. The only roadblock was the fact that one song was longer than the other, so I had to improvise… normally I am very uncreative and remain so, which is why I don’t make truly awesome remixes. The result is on ccMixter and I call it “Misunderstanding a Total Breakdown”. I know it probably sucks.

Check it out.
