FUNK: Resurrect Jerry Garcia So the Grateful Dead Could Play
Posted by Bradley under et al.
I’M EXCITED THEY ANNOUNCED ELTON JOHN IS OPENING THE SPRINT CENTER!!! This will be fabulous!!! But I digress…
Mayor Mark Funkhouser said this week that he knew who the opening act was [Elton John] and that he was enthusiastic.
But he said if it were up to him, AEG would resurrect Jerry Garcia so the Grateful Dead could play. (HA! Funkhouser is great!!)
Elton John to open Sprint Center:

Did Michael Bay Recycle Pearl Harbor Footage into Transformers? YES!
Posted by Bradley under Entertainment
How lame. If the movie wasn’t lacking enough! Don’t get me wrong, I was entertained but left feeling empty. If you don’t HAVE to see this movie right now, wait for video.

Oh Thank Heaven for Marketing
Posted by Bradley under et al., News
Here are 60 pics of the strangest thing to happen to the fast stop in years! BTW, Seven Eleven isn’t paying a dime for all this — the movie studio forked out over a million to do this in 11 cities around the US. Kansas City, unfortunately, didn’t make the cut.

Indiana Jones and the Pompadour of Labeouf
Posted by Bradley under Entertainment
They are filming the new Indie movie in New Haven, CT at Yale University and the Yale Bowl. It’s open to the public to watch production and people are leaking pictures like crazy. Does Shia look like an angry lesbian in all that leather to anyone else? You are looking at one of several pics available at this link:
Looks like there are some support cables hanging from out of frame attached to both actors. It’s either for safety or they get in some kind of accident and fly off the bike. We’ll just have to wait and see.
OHHHH!!! VIDEO FROM THE FIRST DAY OF SHOOTING!!! I’m glad Spielberg is drinking!
