Must have been painful for both parties. Just think about those antlers!

The Outpost Cafe / Work clothes make the man?
« on: January 27, 2008, 10:29:49 AM »
Promotional video sent to construction companies by a UK work clothing manufacturer: (caution if you're at work: no nudity, but definitely adult content)
Turns out that the first actress has since become a schoolteacher. At least she was until her students discovered the video on YouTube: http://www.metro.co.uk/news/article.html?in_article_id=84333&in_page_id=34
Now I'm pondering a wardrobe change.

Some very clever ad campaigns. Hadn't seen any of these before, not that I normally pay much attention. I especially liked #16.

Gibson Basses / Gibson NAMM Photos

Here.
No article, just pics. Mostly guitars but I do spy two Birds in the Gibson booth and one seems to have a mirrored pickguard and a toggle switch. These probably aren't Epis, there's a separate Epi booth shot where you can see the Woody and EB-0.

Gibson Basses / Swedish Bird Sighting
« on: January 18, 2008, 05:56:54 PM »
Mark's "Kids In America" video got me thinking about the version I saw a couple of years back by a Swedish girl pop duo called Shebang. Then I noticed a video of their cover of Sheena, and the bassist is playing a T-bird.
No idea who he is, or if they even have a regular backing band. Nothing I can find on their website, at least the English pages.
Oh yeah, I'm in love with Marina Ljung (the brunette).

The Outpost Cafe / A new sensation...in 1934
« on: January 16, 2008, 12:23:44 PM »
Awhile back I discovered that someone has set up a blog with scans of old articles from Modern Mechanix and Popular Science magazines. I've been reading it fairly often. Great stuff, including some bizarre inventions and others that were unheard of but now we take for granted.
Take a look at this entry from today: Outdoor Grill For Barbecues. A novel idea 74 years ago. Too bad this idea never caught on.
The homepage is here.
