Sunday Dinner: Cassoulet
A few weekends ago I got a craving for cassoulet: the day was cold and dreary and I was in the mood for a provencal French dish. It was a completely illogical desire: I've never spent time in the French countryside and I've never made cassoulet at home in my kitchen. After consuming cassoulet a few times at restaurants, I suddenly was ready to take a stab at making it on my own.
Weezer's Geekalicious Video: Geekish or Freakish?
With the new Weezer album cover getting some flack for being a little weird, I have to say that when it comes to their tunes, I'm still a fan. "Pork and Beans" is not only the standout track from their new record, it's also the one song that holds true to their signature sound. And since their album is hitting shelves on June 3, it's only fitting that these guys release a new (and ubergeeky) video.Internet People, We Love You!
If Weezer's Pork and Beans Internet meme-athon video was not enough for you, then Dan Meth's Internet People just about gets every single Internet phenomena into his animated music video, with a super appropriate title.
I might even like this a little more than P&B, for its sheer vastness of variety.
Forewarning: you will NOT, I repeat NOT, be able to get that song out of your head for hours.
That Viral Weezer Video, Deconstructed
OK, geek confession: I've spent way too much time watching the new Weezer video for "Pork and Beans" and trying to catch all the allusions to viral videos. I'm familiar with most of them, but some I had never seen and had to look up, and some were old favorites — in fact, I think alienated few friends this weekend with bar after bar of "Peanut Butter Jell-ay, Peanut Butter Jell-ay".
Thankfully, video kid Nick McGlynn edited together all of the viral clips that Weezer alludes to, so you don't have to look them all up on YouTube yourself.
