Adjust Your Guitar Strap

What an entertainer! Anthony Gomes, while playing Rock Me Baby somewhere in Florida, loses the screw that holds the strap on his Fender Strat guitar. But he doesn’t miss a beat, holds his guitar close to his chest and still plays his solo. Then he involves the crowd in while the roadies fix his strap back for him. Great performance, great improvisation!

Rebooting The Lizard Visitors

All of you kids out there who were growing up in the 1980′s would probably remember the sci-fic series V. Well if you don’t, then you probably did not watch much tv except for those cartoons. I remember watching V with several other kids in the building – at the ages of 8,9,10, V was considered to be a bit scary and there was strength in numbers.

Although we now laugh at the special effects and the make up, I still think that it was a great show. I’ve been trying to see if I could either dowload the series from the net or buy the dvd collection somewhere here (best of luck Roshan, the selection in Cochin stinks).There’s the two mini-series and the tv series.

And then I just read that the has been plans to remake the entire series. Not a continuation or an adaptation of the novel V: The Second Generation, an alternative sequel to the first mini-series. A rebooting! Not another one. Why do they want to reboot all the science fiction series.

Oh and it’s also Jane Badler’s (pictured above, she played the lead villainess Diana) birthday tomorrow. So happy birthday Diana!
