If your into screwed up morality tales featuring animated children and rabbits this might be up your alley.

Uhh…it was made in England I think.

Blog Watch: Scatter Shot

Friday, October 6th, 2006

My buddy, Nate Buchik, wrote a long running column for the University of Arizona’s Daily Wildcat. He covered music, movies, and other pop culture stuff in sort of a scatter shot kind of way.

He’s since put the column online and turned it into a blog. Check out this recent post on Michael Cera’s new band who plays George Michael on Arrested Development.

The kids of AD always seemed super cool behind a nerdy front, and this was confirmed when my friends spotted Maeby and Bland checking out the Mountain Goats in-store at Amoeba L.A. a few weeks ago. “Where was George Michael?” I asked.

Apparently practicing with his band, The Long Goodbye, who are actually AWESOME. Only 18-years-old, Michael plays guitar and sometimes sings for TLG - which cites influences like Neutral Milk Hotel and Weezer (I’m sure only pre-Green Weez, though). Michael even sports a serious Rivers Cuomo style in most of the band’s pics on their MySpace page.

Between chasing his cousin and selling frozen banana’s who knew George Michael had time for a band?! Nate is a serious television, music, and all around pop culture junkie. Best Week Ever recently gave him some link love and so should you!
