			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="/wp-content/uploads/retro/927blog_dr_breeze.jpg"><br />The eccentric Phil Thomas Katt of <a href="http://theunchartedzone.com/" title="The Uncharted Zone" rel="external"><em>The Uncharted Zone</em></a> (the best TV show you&#8217;re not watching) has done it once again. <a href="http://www.vulturedroppings.com/droppings/mark_gormley_should_win_a_grammy/" title="mark gormley" rel="external">First, he discovered the amazing Mark Gormley</a>, and now he&#8217;s got a new talent. </p>
<p>He goes by the name Dr. Breeze, and it&#8217;s easy to see why. Just listen to &#8220;Because of the Brave&#8221; and tell us you don&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re driving a Mustang convertible down an empty winding road. To say that Dr. Breeze is smooth is a sheer understatement. Relaxing and patriotic, this song is perfect for a 4th of July cookout. Keep it on repeat all day, you&#8217;re not going to get tired of it. And thanks to the blue screen expertise of Phil Thomas Katt, the video is a doozy.  </p>

<p>As great as Dr. Breeze is, we would also like to acknowledge his backup singers, particularly the enthusiastic young man in the black t-shirt. Your intensity and energetic hand gestures ring every bit as loud as the freedom you proudly sing of. Great job!</p>

Dude, you&#8217;re just creepy, and your little song there isn&#8217;t helping you out one bit.</p>
<p>You want our advice? Get rid of the ridiculous hat, plush bow tie, belly shirt and diaper, and go buy yourself a suit. It doesn&#8217;t matter how old you are, Baby Huey, but if you <em>sound</em> like a man, then you <em>are</em> a man, so dress the part. And get a haircut while you&#8217;re at it, your current one looks stupid.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="/wp-content/uploads/retro/912blog_ryancabrera_samsclu.jpg"><br />This is probably the weirdest thing we&#8217;ve ever seen for sale (and we&#8217;ve seen our share of Sky Mall catalogs). <a href="http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?dest=5&amp;item=355121" title="sam's club will sell you ryan cabrera" rel="external">Wal-Mart-owned Sam&#8217;s Club is selling personal concerts by the once-quasi-famous Ryan Cabrera</a>. And it costs a whopping $24,500 to boot. This is Ryan Cabrera we&#8217;re talking about here folks, not some <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Lambert" title="adam lambert" rel="external">current pop semi-sensation</a>. We wouldn&#8217;t even drop a quarter in the guy&#8217;s guitar case if we saw him playing on the street, much less pay $25k to ruin our party.</p>
<p>If you look at the Sam&#8217;s Club page, it&#8217;s really bizarre how they describe him like they would a product, giving you a brief description followed by bulleted advantages. </p>
<p>The best part, though, is the shipping description. Reading it, you would have no idea they&#8217;re talking about a live human.</p>
<p><em>This product ships to all 50 states. Estimated delivery time is 4 weeks if shipping to an Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico or APO/FPO address via standard delivery. Tracking information for USPS shipments is unavailable.</em></p>
<p>They really make it sound like if you ordered a Ryan Cabrera personal concert, he&#8217;d come in a box (probably with ventilation holes and some dry ice to keep him from overheating).</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re thinking about buying the Ryan Cabrera personal concert, keep in mind, 1) Your daughter doesn&#8217;t like him anymore, and 2) This is what you&#8217;re getting for your $24,500:</p>

Now Aqua is getting in on the action and they&#8217;ve even released a new song, &#8220;Back to the 80&#8217;s.&#8221; It&#8217;s a magnificently deep song that spans three decades (written in the &#8217;00s, sounds like the &#8217;90s, talks about the &#8217;80s).</p>

More specifically, what the hell&#8217;s wrong with Harry Shearer&#8217;s arms? He&#8217;s got three of them! Who the hell does Shearer think he is growing a third arm, Marty Malt from <a href="http://campmoviecamp.blogspot.com/2009/03/dark-backward-1991.html" title="dark backward" rel="external"><em>The Dark Backward</em></a>?</p>
<p>Either Harry Shearer underwent a gross mutation since we last saw him, or somebody went a little Photoshop happy. (The mutation is definitely more likely.)</p>
<p>
If you haven&#8217;t heard, the Spinal Tap boys are touring the nation performing songs from <em>Spinal Tap</em>, <em>A Mighty Wind</em>, and <em>Waiting for Guffman</em>. They&#8217;re calling the tour Unwigged &amp; Unplugged on account of their performing songs as themselves and not their on-screen characters. Here&#8217;s a clip:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="/wp-content/uploads/retro/909blog_devo_middle_school.jpg"><br />In our middle school days (mid-&#8217;90s), it was cool for headbangers to write the name of their favorite bands on their backpacks with White-Out. NIN, Metallica, RATM, and Green Day were all really popular. </p>
<p>There was one kidÃ¢â‚¬â€he was newÃ¢â‚¬â€who decided to be trendy and give it a go. One look at his freshly-painted backpack, and it was obvious that this new guy <em>just did not get it</em>. The dude decided to let the whole school know that his favorite band was none other than <strong>Diana Ross and the Supremes</strong>.</p>
<p>Needless to say, <em>everyone</em> tormented this kid. Even yours truly took a break from sitting quietly and keeping to himself and got in on the action. </p>
<p>We share this story with you, not because we&#8217;re proud of bullying a clueless newbie, but because after watching this video, those all-too-familiar feelings of wanting to make a middle-schooler cry have come back. </p>
<p>Honestly, if you watch this video and you don&#8217;t clench your fist, you&#8217;re lying to yourself.</p>

<p>We&#8217;re on our way right now to shove these kids into lockers and take their lunch money.</p>
