Ryan Adams and Bryan Adams
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
Did you know Ryan Adams and Bryan Adams share the same birthday? It’s one of the many things that makes Ryan bananas when it comes to Bryan. Which makes us a little troll-y and want to remind people.
Play “Summer Of ’69” Ryan!

The Killers and Mitt Romney
When Sarah interviewed The Killers last month the band were careful to appear as politically neutral as possible. They did, however, suggest they though Mitt Romney might have been namedropping them a little bit to appeal to the kids. As in, he was kinda fakey fakerson.
It turns out America agreed.

Pumpkin Rob Zombie
Every year music publications do a “dress like your favourite musicians” story around Halloween.
This year I did something different and instead contemplated which musicians might actually be monsters.
Jack White, Rob Zombie and Lana Del Rey were amongst the non-humans.

Esthero
If you’re reading this post, it’s too late. You’ve officially lost your opportunity to have your name tattooed on electro pop soul singer Esthero‘s ass.
Sorry.
To find out why you’ve lost this glorious opportunity you’ll have to check out the story Sarah wrote about Esthero’s ass for Spinner.
I happened to walk into the room during Sarah’s interview with her and the pair were clearly getting on like seven year old besties. So I’m sure you’ll be hearing more about Esthero’s ass and potentially other stuff in the future.

Here’s a spooky cello thing
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
This one features some talk about one of the greatest songs ever recorded — the “Monster Mash.” Monster fucking Mash. It’s the best. Seriously. Also, Leon Theremin, the guy responsible for the spook-noise machine the theremin, he died.
