Showlist for May, 22, 2009

Hey All-

The list is here, so now you can make your Memorial Day Plans.

This is not a new thing, but I saw it a few months back, and meant to post it. It was produced my Mean Magazine (which apparently has people do these little video vignettes all the time) and it is pretty weird. The Oscar winning actor, who played Gandhi now plays DC's own Ian MacKaye. Well, it's fun. And while I certainly can not speak for Ian, I would be pretty psyched if Ben Kingsley played me.

You can find the video here.

Anyway, I hope you all have a good weekend, and I will see ya next week.


later,
pete
