Star Wars fans
For those of you not aware of the neo maxi zoom dweebie sub-culture that is super-duper Star Wars fans, yesterday was May 4, so those sci-fi dorkus malorkuses who understand wordplay have turned May the 4th into “May the Force…” as in, “… be with you.” As in, the Star Wars line.
So, in honour of yesterday being international Star Wars day I found a few youtube Star Wars music clips that were entertaining.

Caviare Days
Here are the latest batch of news stories I’ve done for the Spinner AOL empire:
Zeus do a live version of “Strong Mind.” Check out Neil’s hair.
Jack White isn’t interested in dance music.
Sled Island 2012 lineup gets announced.
Coldplay don’t really talk about the Olympics, say U2 rule (they’re probably lying).
Kay, she of My Name Is Kay, makes music with some guy.
Caviare Days: Hot pant-wearing Swedish sisters who make psychedelic dance pop. Yes, that’s exactly what it is.

You can take the girl out of the Star Trek conventions, but you can’t take the Trekkie out of the girl. There’s really no other reason that Sarah started talking to Hanson about Star Trek and Star Wars when they were in town to promote their new album, Shout It Out.
In honour of May The Fourth, she shared their conversation with AOL Music Blog. You can check it out here.
