Article on video, and the single

Shitting Glitter are playing in Santa Ana - now an all girl band they are gonna rock and you should check it out if you can. Kegs 120 North International Boardwalk Redondo Beach, CA
4. On Saturday my pal Robert is throwing together his monthly mash up night called
Blender. It will be at The Palms on Santa Monica Boulevard in WeHo and promises to be awesome. Also at around 8:30 before Blender starts my pal
Devin Tait & The Traitors will be playing. The theme is fucked up Disney and you should go in costume.
5. My boss just emailed me and told me he is going to pay me my third quarter commission despite not meeting his goal... this is very exciting as now I can buy some Christmas presents.
6. I am probably going to be missing both the Friday and Saturday things I just told you about as this weekend (October 9th) is my two year wedding anniversary... that's right 2 years, still in love and the haters can't take away my marriage license (yet)
7. And finally on Monday, October 11th, it's my husband's birthday. Now I need to find him some amazing present....

A Few Of My Favorite Things
A few of my favorite things this week:P!nk's fly highing performance of
"Sober" on the
VMAs last Sunday:
The film
Coraline - absolutely lovable - dark and dingy like The Corpse Bride but funny and hilarious (thanks to Dawn French & Jennifer Saunders to name a few) and hilarious animation of Teri Hatchetface.. Rent it - you'll love it. We rented it in 3D and thanks to the glasses they gave us in the Blu Ray for My Bloody Valentine 3D we got to see it in all its glory.
and finally today is the birthday of one of my all time fav celebrities - Miss Cassandra Peterson or
Elvira, the Mistress of the Dark. If you haven't seen her 1988 film or Elvira's Haunted Hills, you're only abusing yourself...

BubbaTUNESday - All Kinds Of Special
This week is a very special week here at BubbaTUNESday - as the brand new
P!nk CD comes out today - which I've been putting off listening to (since it's on the web right now) and instead will be heading my cha cha heels over to Virgin after work to pick it up! Which is where I have to veer off and bitch a minute, back when Tower Records still existed and was located just up the hill from my house, it would be Tuesdays like this that I would head over there BEFORE WORK and pick up the newest releases and thus I could spend all day listening to my new CDs, and now I have to haul my cookies all the way to Hollywood to get a new CD - I know my life can suck!
In other music news (that is what BubbaTUNESday is all about), I recieved the most exciting news ever -
Lisa Hartman is finally coming out on CD. Well kind of. You see way back in 1988 her album
Til My Heart Stops was actually released on CD by Atlantic Records. These days that CD goes for like $100 sometimes on Ebay and the like.. luckily I found a copy for only $26 and bought the sucker.. but now everyone can own it and not just in Bubbatunes version.. as Wounded Bird Records is re-releasing Til My Heart Stops next month! Here's the little blurb from Wounded Bird's website:
Lisa Hartman/'Til My Heart Stops ....CD $11.99
Lisa Hartman is known a as a country singer, an actress and as the wife of country singer Clint Black. She has only issued a few albums over the years, but one of them, 'Til My Heart Stops', has been one of Wounded Bird's most requested CDs to bring back to the fold. It was originally issued on Atlantic Records in 1987.
But now onto some even better news -
Halloween is my ultimate favorite Holiday and making music is one of my all time favorite loves, and luckily when
Flexible Records was around my pal Mr. Flex Rex himself, Patrick would get all of his bands from the roster of Flex to do a Halloween compilation (instead of those oh so boring Christmas comps most people do) and Swivek was on each and every one of them (there were only 3 really) ... but since Flex Rex is no longer and it's almost Halloween, I thought I'd let YOU, my fan (s?) relive those awesome
Swivek Halloween songs with one added bonus!
Yes that's right I said bonus, you see last year when Patrick came up with Musik Fer Spinnen, the 2007 Halloween comp, I submitted an electro clash version of the old murder anthem
"Banks Of The Ohio" but I had actually also completed an original that I didn't give to him, so keeping in the tradition of a new Swivek Halloween song you can listen to
"The Night", it's on
My Space and you can run your digits over there and give it a gander.
As for the other SWIVEK HALLOWEEN SONGS here they are:
the creepy
"Stalker" from
Black Rubber Bats (2006)
and my favorite, a fun little zombie love song
"Crypt Keeper" from
Ghastly! (2005)
Enjoy bwahhhhhhh
