Netflix - No Installation Required



A funny Netflix ad featuring local comedian Jason Goliath as an installation technician, takes the piss out of DSTV's laborious process for connection. The ad launched shortly after MultiChoice announced their disapproval of Netflix not being regulated like other TV stations in South Africa.

Star Wars: Disney's Death Star Canteen



Death Star Canteen by Eddie Izzard is a golden oldie that cracks me up every time, enjoy!

...but is this how the future of Star Wars is going to look?

LucasFilm, the makers of Star Wars, founded and solely owned by George Lucas, has been purchased by Disney for $4.05 Billion! Some say Star Wars is not for kids and this is the death of Star Wars, the founder says it's a way to keep the films alive and in good hands. George explains that he wants to retire and "be a fan" for a change, watch the brief interview on Star Wars' future [here].

The Evolution of Drums with Gino Fabbri [and me]


Gino Fabbri, South African comedian and drummer, I dig this! Remember the Evolution of Dance? It's approaching 200 million views. The Evolution of Drums brings back good memories for me... Insanely cool compilation, recorded by smartphones, apparently, with a song selection of note, nicely done! All the classic 80's tunes, even some Johnny Clegg, Nirvana and Shakira's WakaWaka. I'm not just saying this, but it is rad, right to the end. Don't know how he remembers the order or feels the timing!

The good memories? 'Did You Know'... throughout school and studies, drums were a huge part of my life. Always liked them, always will, just not playing nearly as often these days. In grade 5, I started saving for a drum kit, the income was much smaller back then, so things took a while longer for a purchase of this size. Had to be a quality drum kit from the start, to avoid wanting a better one at a later stage, musical instruments are like that. In grade 7, I bought my drum kit, Pearl Export series and it has been with me ever since. I was in a band with two of my mates, Charl and Tim, we were the punk rockers of our world :) having a GOOD laugh right now going down memory lane, good times, some things change, playing music always rocks. I managed to find some pics:

Rocking... or was I? That t-shirt definitely was!

Pablo Francisco's Mexican Music in 2006 (prepare to laugh)



A classic performance by known comedian, Pablo Francisco. Pablo does the 'preview guys voice' better than the 'preview guy' does his own voice! After hearing that Pablo was performing in Jo'Burg, I sat waiting to hear if our souls in Cape Town would bear witness to the stomach ache from laughing so hard, of Pablo Francisco's funny voice impersonations. This video is a classic of his sounds, music and singing talents. I heard last night on "Tonight with Trevor Noah" that Pablo would be coming to Cape Town in about 4 months time. That is around December time, so still hopefully this year! Looking forward to seeing him at the Nandos Comedy Festival. I for one am very excited to see the show. I went to the last Nandos show and it was brilliant!
