Danny b Funk: january 12

Mark your calendars kiddies.

Everyone's favorite(well one of mine at least) hip and trendy band will soon be releasing the followup to their fantastic 2008 debut. That's right! Vampire Weekend will drop their new album, entitled Contra, on January 12, 2010. I love me some VampWeek (no I don't actually call them that) and I am more than excited for their new album. If you still haven't listened to their first, seriously do yourself a favor and pick it up.

Check out their new single "Cousins"

Contra

Hey There

Thanks for stopping by.

This is a place for all things "entertainment", which is essentially all things me. Music, art, movies, TV, new technologies, "everything" and (maybe) anything involved with entertainment. I put the words "entertainment" and "everything" in parenthesis for the fact that firstly some things I may find entertaining other people may not and secondly there's no way I can really cover everything out there.

Some of my entries may seem completely random but I feel as though spontaneity and randomness should be a part of life. Nonetheless, I hope this brings you some kind of enjoyment, for that's the real reason behind this whole thing.

Thanks again and Enjoy.

Who Am I and What Am I Doing Here....?

Who am I? Where am I? What am I?

I am:

Entertainer, musician, comedian, writer, actor, beatsmith,
lumberjack,wrestler, magician, thinker, poet, wannabe hero
and occasional super-villain.

The exact origin of the name "Danny b Funk" is unknown but it was developed years ago
due to my funky bass playing and all around "funky"
nature (whatever that means).

My outlook and attitude towards life, as well as
inspirations are influenced greatly by:

1960's hippie culture, sounds, noise and beats, Funk, the Grateful Dead, cartoons,
Les Claypool, comic books, the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,
professional wrestling, "the groove", Living in the country, rhymes, The Twilight Zone
Dr. Seuss,improvisation, video games, standup and improv comedy,
old school hip hop, DJs, Shel Silverstein, Drum Machines,
Vinyl Discs, boat shoes, electricity, mythology, Eastern religion and philosophy,
acoustic instruments, Mick Foley, jazz, awkwardness, music as a whole,
antics, shenanigans and tomfoolery.

Thanks again for stopping by.
