1969 Deep Purple album art

Not a fan of the music, but have always found their album art quite amazing. This 1969 album (self-titled) rom Deep Purple is so twisted, it could only come from a Hieronymous Bosch night terror. Digital music has ruined the album sleeve/j-card piece of music that was always so special to us. I hope this can change somehow. Buy Deep Purple music here.

Vintage mugshots

This is a close look at criminals of the 1920s. Things always seem more frightening in black and white, and these vintage mugshots are no exception. The camera had a way of capturing the deviance in their eyes back then. See more photos here. (via Twisted Sifter)

Tommy Lee’s Drum Rollercoaster

Motley Crue fans who see them on tour this summer will get to see Tommy Lee’s latest drum rollercoaster innovation. Check it out below.

This type of thing is not new for Tommy. He has always worked hard to make the drummer stand out and look cool during a show. Here’s an example of what he did back in 1987.

If only he knew how ridiculous he sounds saying the F word.

1991 Twins

Could the Minnesota Twins go from worst to first like they did in 1991?

How can politicians and business leaders from around the world meet in secrecy at a Swiss resort this past weekend and it not be covered by the mainstream media? See leaked Bilderberg list.

Do supporters of gay marriage in Minnesota realize that boycotting the Basillica Block Party would only take away money from the homeless?

If home daycare providers form a union and decide to go on strike, who would they bargain with? They are self-employed! (news story)

Bruins fan allegedly stabbed in neck during riot

I am seriously considering not wearing a team jersey if I am watching a sporting event in a different city. With Bruins fans being stabbed in Vancouver and Giants fans being beaten in Los Angeles, I think I’ll dress a little more inconspicuously.

Best Week Ever has highlighted a YouTube channel called Cringevenom that is a resource for scary things that somehow made it onto television that were suppose to educate our kids. Take this video of a clown ventriloquist doll for example. Good luck sleeping tonight.

The four chord formula to every pop song ever written

The four chord formula to every pop song ever written. Maybe this is why everything sounds the same these days. In C major they’d be C, G, Am and F. The comedy band shows us how they work with any pop song while playing in the key of E I think (E,B,C#,A).
