 Thanks to Rob Kelly for providing the graphic. Scott Bateman, author of the forthcoming book Scott Bateman’s Sketchbook of Secrets & Shame (see item below), is creating a new animated movie every day for an entire year. He recently animated a little ditty sung by Kevin Murphy. You can see (and hear) “Aluminum & Beer” at http://www.batemania.com/bateman365/day256.html (Macromedia’s Flash player is required).
You may remember that several months ago we posted a picture of a MST3K-themed float from the Soulard Mardi Gras parade. The band pictured on that float has finally come forward. They are Bonedaddy & the Blues Shakers and you can find out more about them at http://www.bonedaddy.info. The Weekly Blurb. ‘Nuff said.
