Two things I’ll tell ya right off the bat, buddy.<\/p>\n

  1. This<\/a> is an awesome song<\/li>\n
  2. Nobody from Electric Six appears in this video<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Some comedian made the video.\u00a0 And he did a damn fine job.\u00a0 Come, let us laugh at him.\u00a0 Ha!<\/p>\n

    I think it was this song that made me actually break down and purchase some Electric Six.\u00a0 And I’m very glad that I did.\u00a0 They’re my favorite band of the 00s.\u00a0 I’m an old fogey, and for me to actually like a band that existed past the 90s is kind of rare.<\/p>\n

    The message of this song is positive too.\u00a0 The part about technology.\u00a0 I won’t get too deep into that, because Electric Six tend not to have meaningful lyrics.\u00a0 Their lyrics are, for the most part, a big joke just like most of their music.\u00a0 It’s the kind of joke that you either don’t get, get, or GET.\u00a0 And friends, I GET the joke.<\/p>\n

    Fantastic band.\u00a0 Anyway, I’ll have to go and Mikeify (edit) their latest album to get the volume down a notch because it’s way too loud and sounds clipped<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    I was going to actually do up a little tutorial on how to Mikeify music.\u00a0 But I didn’t.\u00a0 Meh.\u00a0 Some day I will, then you will know what I’m talking about.\u00a0 I made a post or two earlier about what I do to audio files to make them sound better.\u00a0 If you’re really interested, then search for the term “Mikeify” in that search bar at the bottom of the page.<\/p>\n
