America

The great social commentator of our times.

Steely Dan

Still ill after all these years....

Eric Burdon and WAR

Eric Burdon, better know as The Animals' frontman, formed WAR in the early 70's. They were a band that innovated early forms of funk and just all out rocked. Here they cover Paint it Black by The Rolling Stones. It's definitely some funked out shit.

Stevie Wonder x Sesame Street, 1973

Stevie Wonder not only influenced the whole of music as we know it, but he helped out a couple tripped out furry space monsters as well...

David Lynch x COMMERCIALS?

The following are a series of filmmaker David Lynch's commercials. These commercials all have a similar style that is synonymous with the filmmakers' name.

The Steve Allen Show

Steve Allen was a 1950's and 60's grammy award winning talk show host best known for being the first host of THE TONIGHT SHOW. Following THE TONIGHT SHOW, Allen hosted a new show entitled THE STEVE ALLEN SHOW. Many artists made early appearances on this show.


BOB DYLAN


Lenny Bruce


Frank Zappa

Are Birds the sign of genius?

Recently, a friend of mine made a discovery that geniuses enjoy the company of birds on their shoulder. The following are examples:


Captain Beefheart- Assorted craziness, musical genius


Salvador Dali- Surrealist Artist


Marcel Duchamp- Founder of dadaist movement and artist.

SHAQ FREESTYLE

The self-proclaimed new B.I.G...this song is absurd. But he does take a couple of stabs at Kobe Bryant and the Lakers losing the finals, and another aimed at former New York Knicks star Patrick Ewing.

Robin Sparkles

There are no words to describe what goes on in this video. Just wait for the Keytar solo

Quote of the Day

Naomi Campbell recently was arrested on a plane for attacking two British cops and sentenced to 200 hours of community service.
Her response :"I was called a 'gollywog supermodel'. I don't think that's really fair - do you?"

DUEL

Steven Spielberg's premiere directorial debut...This film is a great example of Spielberg's mastery of his craft at such a young age. He was 25 as of the release of this film. This film is a tale of businessman who becomes terrorized by a giant truck on the highway. If nothing else, this film shows how Spielberg was innately a master of pacing and editing, and how this went to influence his later work.

MANchild's made up word of the day

Hip-Hopologist- A person who studies the genre of hip-hop and how it relates to society.



Conceptual artist Joseph Kosuth with the leading hip-hopologist Paul D. Miller (Dj Spooky)

Terry Gilliam

In 2000, Director Terry Gilliam (Brazil, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas) began production on a project entitled "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote" starring Johnny Depp. Shooting was shut down after one week on the set. This is the only finished clip of the film.

Tim Burton

Made in 1982, Tim Burton was merely 24 years old when he made this remarkable short film.

Guy Maddin

This guy makes great films. Born in Canada, this is the Canadian film maker's psudo auto-biographical fantastical documentary film based on his life.

The Virgins

The Virgins just released their first self entitled album. Here is their first video. It's like a public access television show.

Marty McFly Dunks

These could become reality...The Shoes that Marty McFly wore in Back to the Future II. Even though in this photo, the person constructed their own...ballin'.

801

This band rocks...Really rare....The band 801 consists of Brian Eno and the members of Roxy Music without Bryan Ferry. They only performed several times as a band. This is a cover of The Beatles song Tomorrow Never Knows.

BEACH BOYS VS. MANSON

The Beach Boys perform a song written by incarcerated psycho path and underground social icon Charles Manson.

Get with it

This is a truly great band. SPARKS. They recently did a series of 21 concerts for 21 nights in order to commemorate their 21 albums. Seriously underrated.

The Summer T

Let's Get Lost

Early 90's banger.

life of MANchild ch.1

i am MANchild. I am not elderly nor young, neither an infant nor an adolescent. I am not the father, and I am not the son. I am one thing, and one thing only. But I am only that one thing. And, I am the only one of that one thing. I am bearded like a goat, but have legs the size of chickens' arms. I am MANchild. And these are the things i LIKE.



KANSAS, this rocked my shit. Totally overshadowed by phonies.
