New Addition to the Daily Wierdo...

In addition to the very infrequent music related posts, and the Weekly Weirdo podcast, I am creating something new.  In celebration of all the other weirdo's I see around the city on a daily basis, I have decided to include a segment called "Weirdo of the Day".  In these posts you will see a candid picture of said weirdo along with a caption from yours truly.  I must warn you, most of these weirdos will be a lot more extreme on the weirdo scale.  I also should tell you, I cannot do this alone.  As much as I'd like to make that promise, I couldn't even keep up with the regular posts.   That being said, this is a call to you folks.  I know you recently snapped a phone picture of that guy on the train with a lizard in his pocket and tie dyed wolf t-shirt.  Send it in! I will put them up for everyone to enjoy and credit you if you would like credit.  Dailyweirdo@gmail.com. Let the weird go wild!

Weekly Weirdo Numero Cuatro

-Greg tries his luck at "vegan speed dating"but could really care less about it.
-Greg gets in touch with an old flame to find out what went wrong. In doing so he learns that she is now a clown.

Internet Celebrity "Grumpy Cat" Schedules Public Appearance.

It has been announced that everybody's favorite internet meme, "Grumpy Cat", will be showing up at South by Southwest.  I am pretty sure that this will be against Grumpy Cat(whose real name is Tardar Sauce)'s will.  It's unlikely that a cat that already lives in a constant state of annoyance, wants to be thrust into the spotlight at a loud music and art festival where every annoying drunk hipster will be clawing their way through to snap a picture on their iphone 5.  But, as well as hanging out in the Mashable tent all day being gawked at, the cat will also be shooting a friskie's commercial which will make Tardar Sauce's owner, one rich bitch.  I guess that's all that matters right? 

Dave Grohl's Soundcity movie Soundtrack up for streaming

Dave Grohl's debut in the film world, Sound City: From Real to Reel, now has a soundtrack which is streaming at NPR.org.  The film is a documentary about Sound City studios in Van Nuys, California where Grohl recorded one of the greatest records of all time Nirvana's Nevermind.  On this soundtrack, Grohl collaborates with several different artists that have also recorded at the studio to write and record new songs.  Artists include Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, Rick Springfield and more.  Grohl also recently played two US concerts featuring many of the artists, to promote the movie.  You can hear a really spotty review about the NYC show on the first Weekly Weirdo podcast.

Mike McCready and Duff McKagan's Neck Forming New Band.

The word is out that Mike McCready of Pearl Jam and Duff McKagan, best known for his work in punk band the Farts (but also the lesser known Guns N Roses), are starting a new band together. Also involved is drummer Barrett Martin formerly of the Screaming Trees. McCready and Martin played together back in the early 90's in the band Mad Season alongside deceased Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley(before he was deceased).  The idea was sprouted by McCready and Barrett when they began reviewing old unreleased Mad Season demo's while preparing the re-release of the first and only Mad Season album Above, due out April 2nd.
