Lips to Back Beck on Tour
Oklahoma rockers will also play their own set

The Flaming Lips and Beck will team up for a fall tour following the release of Beck's new album, Sea Change, on September 24th. But the arrangement is far from the standard opening act gig for the Lips. The band, whose own Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots was recently released, will not only open up for Beck but will act as his backing band during his headlining set.
Head Lip Wayne Coyne compares the tour to another similar joint venture. "Beck would be Bob Dylan in this case, and we would be Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers," he says. "We would play as the Flaming Lips, then Beck would come out and we would be his band. And Beck would sort of be in front of the Flaming Lips and we would play Beck's music."

"He's [Beck] very charming and very nice so I don't think there's going to be any struggle from that way," Coyne continues enthusiastically. "Not having done his music before, you know, it's a new territory but, I think it's going to be good!"

COOL!

Holding out till that glorius day. Creeping up in a couple years will be my 25th birthday. Those insurance premiums will go down, down, down! I can't wait. Luby's will be holding the door open for me and those trips to the post office will become more frequent. The golden dusk of my waning years are stretching from horizon to horizon.

Dude! Somebody dropped a bomb in the men's bathroom with something fierce! I'm not joking. Brotha can't even have a decent morning moment without breathing through my mouth. The worse part is it began to permeate throughout the front of the building. It can't be escaped. Resistance is futile--you must smell the rank pumice of somebody's ass. Cans upon cans of air freshener has been released to combat the foul cloud. Oy vey!

Song of the Day:
1.) The Smiths - Frankly Mr. Shankly.

Are you watching this American Idol stuff?! It's way too funny man! What the hell is Burt Bacharach doing with these slew of losers?! Oh yeah, I don't care what anybody says, Simon's the man.

I really appreciate a player like Marshall Faulk. I mean, in all seriousness, one of the greatest backs ever, can catch a pass like an elite reciever and is one of the nicest guys in the league. On top of that, the dude takes a less than stellar amount of money for the caliber of player he is, just so he can ease the salary cap for other talent. The downside? That bastard Jake drafted him!

Meet my folks. Anybody watch this stuff tonight? Basically, three suitors are picked apart by the girls parents and one is finally chosen. Didn't get to watch the end, but the lie detector test where they asked that one guy: "Are you gay?" and he shakingly says: "No". A tumulteous five seconds pass with intimidating music, and then the lie detector guy finally gives the thumb of approval. A sigh of relief sweeps the room.

Funny stuff.
