Tipsy's Music Digest

On wednesday evening, the O2 Area in London got mad: during Roger Water’s “The Wall” representation, David Gilmour and Nick Mason, former Pink Floyd companions, joined the bassist on stage! That’s the sign of a possible future reformation, that could happen sooner than we think. The latest gig was during the Live 8 concert in 2005! We Love Them!

Check this out: that’s a band we support, Edouard’s band, The Slap Dealers. Born in 2008, this band has been touring around Paris since then. They sometimes play some acoustic concerts as well as they can play some energic and cosy rock shows. Being from different musical horizons, they try to mix their influence in their music. They love what they are doing, and they want to go as far as possible. Wish them as much luck as you can, they deserve it!
Check this out to discover their universe:

Holy crap, if you manage to go to sleep tonight without watching the Predator the Musical video then you need to punch yourself in the face, because that’s just wrong. This is so bad, but so good.
The latest in the series of Arnold Schwarzenegger ‘musicals’ on YouTube, this hysterical video tells the story of the epic conflict between a huge and barely literate Austrian bodybuilder and an alien that wants to kill him. I don’t know what else to say. Just watch it! Be sure to also watch Terminator The Opera!
