- Hella Bus has an engaging, creative, relevant (and short!) video episode about politics in Olympia--including the best fifteen seconds of political film we've seen in ages tucked in at the very end.
- Videogum wrote about 'Nightline's Great Satan Debate--apparently it was a laugh riot!
- The Daily Weekly got a hot tip about a man wearing a jacket printed all over with Asian call-girl ads. Weird.

We Went: Zion I and Mistah F.A.B. @ Chop Suey
A red-bereted, beaming man with diamond-encrusted glasses stepped onto Chop Suey's stage last night around 11pm and shouted, "ChhhhyeLOWWW!" "ChhhyeLOWWW," the delighted crowd screamed back at Mistah F.A.B. It's no mystery why F.A.B.'s so popular. His swooping, playful, sharp music reminds us of nothing more than driving down a busy California six-lane boulevard on one of those stunningly hot summer days, though our sense of heat and motion might have been coming from the writhing, shimmying, cavorting masses of teenagers surrounding us on the floor at Chop Suey. Get hyphy! Get dumb! We got the sneaking suspicion that we're about four years too old for this, but it was fun anyway. Check out this Imeem video of F.A.B.'s song "Ghost Ride It" to get a better sense of what we're talking about:
Zion I, Mistah F.A.B. @ Chop Suey Tonight
In preparation for the Zion I and Mistah F.A.B. show at Chop Suey tonight, Seattlest has been stalking AmpLive a little bit. It's not hard. The producer half of Zion I gained wide-spread notoriety for releasing (at first, sans permission) a collection of chill Radiohead . "I have always wanted to do a song using a harp," AmpLive told Evolving Music earlier this month. Now we HAVE to go to the show, just in case there's some harp action.
