WATCH: Dastardly serenades Rose Marie

Feb 15, 1:52pm loudloop

We just can't seem to get enough Dastardly . Luckily, the band has released the newest of six videos filmed on a farm in San Marcos, Texas (30 miles southwest of Austin). This time around the band gets together to cover the '50s-era ballad, first made popular by Slim Whitman, "Rose Marie." The band sound excellent and the vocals are top-notch as always. Catch Dastardly in person when the group sets up shop at the Whistler next Wednesday, February 22, with Kentucky Knife Fight.

Jan 26, 2011, 6:12pm Any Major Dude With Half A Heart

In this segment we briefly turn our focus on some of the individuals featured on this mix and the 1950/51 compilation . Pictured on the cover is the 1952 Cadillac in which Hank Williams died of heart failure on New Year's Day 1953, aged 30 (though he always looked much older than that).

Among the more unexpected names in country must be that of Ole Rasmussen , a western swing bandleader who with [...]

Random stuff...

Mar 25, 2007, 2:08pm I prefer their early stuff

The B-52s Lately i've had some strange stuff stuck in my head, so I thought I'd share. First up, Rock Lobster, by a fledgling B-52s. Awesome psychobilly new wave surf rock from 1978.
