Damn you Amber Mac. I just wasted the last hour playing Asteroids online with other people. It’s actually not really Asteroids. You don’t blow up asteroids, you blow up each other. There is just something cool about blowing up some body else. I was totally getting schooled by this Chris kid. Then somebody else joined in and we teamed up against him. Fun stuff, but man what a time waster.

Over the weekend I order meself a Jobby Roger. I thought it would be a good sticker to be the first on my MacBook. I got them in the mail yesterday. I just put in on today and lo and behold it is Talk Like A Pirate Day. I didn’t even know.

Oh, I can’t talk, or type like a pirate very well. I will just be sporting my Jobby Roger.

Well, today is the day. Motion City Soundtrack’s new album comes out today. I am heading to buy it after this post. Here is the first video off the album for the Song “Broken Heart”.

They recently played what I think is their second video for “This is for Real” on their Webisode 7.

Now I am off to buy the album.

Another old video off of Motion City Soundtrack’s first album.

“Hold me down” is one of Motion City Soundtracks slower songs. I like the video because it almost looks like they recorded it on a frozen lake in Minnesota. I don’t think they did though because of the Mountians in the background.

This song is also on Commit This to Memory. I like the video because it looks like they made in in the spring in Minnesota.

Motion City Soundtrack’s secon album came out in 2005. It it titiled Commit This to Memory. Here is the video for the first single off the album.

If you have been reading my blog you would know that Motion City Soundtrack is one of my favorite bands. If you haven’t been reading my blog, well, Motion City Soundtrack is one of my favorite bands. They are from my home state of Minnesota, and I have seen them four time. Sadly I have to miss them in November when they come around again.

Well, their new album hits stores Tuesday. You can listen to it now here.

All weekend I will be posting videos to get you hooked so you buy their CDs. This first video is from their first album, I Am the Movie. It came out in 2003. I fell in love with them the second I heard it. I was lucky enough to see them play in Grand Forks that year. The wife and I were jumping up and down, singing to every song, and nobody else knew who these guys were opening for Dashboard Confessional.

Yesterday was a great day. The wife had to work, so I spent the whole day watching football. I don’t get too many days anymore where I can watch three games with no interruptions. It was even better now with a fridge full of beer and the new HDTV.

Today I am hoping for good news from Kevin Everett. He is a reserve tight end for Buffalo who hurt his spine in the game against my Broncos. It was nice that my Broncos were able to squeak out a win, but it was terrible what happened to Everett.

Two more games on tonight. Too bad the wife will be home tonight so I won’t be able to enjoy the games in peace. Then again maybe she will let me. Who knows? We will see….

I just saw this awesome animated video about Internet superstars on Amber Mac’s blog.

It’s scary how many of those people I recognize. Brings back memories from a lot of classic YouTube videos.
