God Save The Princess

God save the princess

We mean it man

And there is no future

In Mushroom Kingdom dreaming

No future, no future,

No future for you

No future, no future,

No future for Mario

(God Save The Princess by this is kuwahara)

Ille Qui Nos Omnes Servabit

Even with two episodes left I still hold out hope that Locke (or Smoke Locke) will be proven not to be evil. Of course that seems unlikely, but still...

Don't be told what you want
Don't be told what you need
There's no future, no future,
No future for you

If you hold out any faith, there is Locke Honor by Marky of Glamour Kills. And I got to put Latin on my blog. Damn I'm cultured!

Never Mind The Sex Pistols Saturday Morning Cartoon

"What if the Sex Pistols had a cartoon in 70's produced by Hanna Barbera?" If you're illustrator Dave Perillo you don't have to wonder, you can just draw it. Pretty vacant? Hardly.  And the British punks had a companion show with the Ramones.

Perillo: "They could drive around and solve mysteries and argue with each other, they'd even have a scrappy alley cat sidekick named Bonzo." I only wish they existed.

Never Mind the Hall of Fame

The Sex Pistols have given the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame the finger.

Last year the band, Black Sabbath, Miles Davis, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Blondie were all inducted into the Hall, with the ceremonies to take place in March. Many would say the recognition is long overdue.

Well, the Sex Pistols aren’t coming, writing the organizers a polite little note on frontman Johnny Rotten's site:

"Next to the sex Pistols, rock and roll and that hall of fame is a piss stain. Your museum. Urine in wine. We're not coming. Were not your monkey and so what? Fame at $25,000 if we paid for a table, or $15,000 to squeak up in the gallery, goes to a non-profit organization selling us a load of old famous.

“Congratulations. If you voted for us, hope you noted your reasons. Your anonymous as judges, but your still music industry people. Were not coming. Your not paying attention. Outside the shit-stem is a real Sex Pistol."

Nice to see a little of the punk attitude still alive – even if it is over something like a Hall of Fame induction.
