Youtube is running a comedy skit competition at the moment. The rules of the competition were to make a sketch that was about a roadtrip and somehow featured a musical instrument. I think the sketches were all done by amateaur members of the public (although some of them do look a little too professionally done).
So I've included the sketches which I thought were funniest on this blog.
The competition is in the semi-finals stage at the moment so members of the public (ie you) need to vote for sketches they like the most the winner gets an amount of money. Cick here or if that doesn't work www.youtube.com/sketchies2
Even if you don't vote you can always just watch these sketches just to piss some time away - and isn't that what's important here?

I think the only person this post is going to appeal to is future me, but tough.
The other day I was reading an article on Cracked.com entitled 5 Important Lessons Learned from Street Fighter 2 the article was mildly funny as per usual (I should point out there are some absolute brilliant comedy bits nestled deep in cracked.com which is why I have now added a link to this website in the sidebar).
Anyway about two thirds of the way down the article I found a picture of these guys.

These dudes are Kid n Play and they were a comedy rap duo from 1983-1993. The reason I bring them up is that they were in a cartoon I used to watch when I was a kid and it's taken me over 10 years to findout who the hell they are or were.
I won't explain the format of the cartoon but everytime I tried to explain it to anyone they told me kid was Vanilla Ice - people are such idiots.
That's the beginnning of a show and the into
That's the full song Rollin with Kid n Play
Also it must be said that Kid's hair is "off the hook".

Previously on pancake day
It seems to be the curse of the blogger that whenever they say "I'm going to update this blog more regularly" that infact what happens is they take the longest time possible to write a following update.
This has happened to yours truly and it is only now do I realise I haven't written a single update for February.... how annoying.
Still nevermind, we all have our crosses to bear and I'm sure I'll get over it.
Anyway February 5th (or Pancake day) saw Scottish band Biffy Clyro perform an impromptu acoustic gig which I was lucky enough to witness. And yes they were very good and stuff and I've included a couple of pictures for whoever it interested.
But this blog doesn't review gigs. Infact usually what happens is it complains about stuff. Which is what is about to occur:
1. The BBC are pissing licence fee money away on the TV programme Sound.
On Saturday afternoons there is this TV show called Sound which is basically the BBC trying to make a music show to engage with Teenagers. It's shite. Really shite. Nearly all the performances get interrupted with talking or they only show 30 seconds of the band playing. The Biffy Clyro acoustic gig was on Sound the following Saturday and featured only a fraction of the footage taken, (I know how much was filmed I was there in the audience having to put up with camera getting in my bloody way).
Also the male presenter Nick Grimshaw is an arsehole click here to see why you should hate him as much as I do.
2. Couples at gigs. I'm a sad bitter old man - that is a given but even when I was younger and hadn't had my heart crushed by a riotous stream of idiot bitches I hated couples at gigs. Why you ask? Because two people supposedly in love always seem to be lauding it over you - there's no hand holding, that's too subtle what we need is full on face suckering and always during the most inappropriate song.
For instance I like Glassjaw. Now I know for a fact that a load of the singers songs are about not being able to get a girlfriend due to his terrible bowel illness. It would be at a point during an "I'm so bitter, I keep pooing and can't get a girlfriend song" that the stupid couple in question would get off with each other.
So how would the singer in Glassjaw feel about that? It's just rubbing it in his face - and that is just spiteful.
So the next time you are enjoying a band with your girlfriend remember hand holding and cuddling is ok but a larger showing of affection is impudent behaviour.
