To Generate Buzz, Clap Your Hands on the 'Net!

These guys started off at Conn. Why am I always the last one to hear about this stuff? "Over two weeks this past June, all of those forces mobilized to support a group called Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!, a five-piece rock combo based in New York and Philadelphia. It was one of scores of bands making music without the help of a record label, pressing CDs themselves and selling them at concerts and on the Internet." - Link (All Things Considered)

Joe Shit, The Rag Man

I heard a new expression today, and I absoluuuutely loves it. Besides being colorful and having an association to a specific sub-culture (always of interest to a writer/word-hound), it also suites my taste in mature and evolved humor (read infantile/scatological). "Joe Shit, The Rag Man" is apparently: a generic screw-up or an un-squared away Marine. - Link (devildogs.cc)
