Time for Oscoda, After Dark

Saturday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with BLONDIE!

Johnny was terribly sad to see Blondie drummer Clem Burke passed away a couple weeks back. Beyond being a fantastic drummer, not many in his class, he told wonderful stories on the Twitter. Always a positive guy. Let's do Mr. Burke's memory a friendly and go with 'Dreaming' to kick things off tonight.

Saturday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE FOUNDATIONS!

Johnny and the crew got together for another movie night this weekend, There's Something About Mary which can only mean 'Build Me Up Buttercup' up next.

Saturday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with LOS LOBOS!

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with LINDA RONSTADT!

A Good Friday-themed night and that theme being every song on the Music Series will have the word "Good" in it. Kicking things off it's one of Johnny favorite artists with one of his favorite songs, 'You're No Good'

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with FINE YOUNG CANNIBALS!

Some serious Quadrophenia vibes in this video. That's a very 'Good Thing'

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with JOE WALSH!

These same lyrics from a lot of music artists would sound like they are claiming things they never did for attention. This is Joe Walsh, these may be humble brags. 'Life's Been Good' taking us out on a good Good Friday.

How about those Broncos?!

Though he's an Eastern Michigan guy Johnny was jazzed to see Western Michigan win the NCAA Division 1 hockey title last night 6-2 over Boston University. This means every college in Michigan playing Division 1 hockey now has a National Championship to their name: Western Michigan, Michigan, Michigan State, Ferris St., Lake Superior State, Northern Michigan and Michigan Tech.

The state of hockey indeed!

The Movie Night movie this week was Goodfellas. A perfect time for a Henny Youngman joke: I told my wife the truth. I told her I was seeing a psychiatrist. Then she told me the truth: that she was seeing a psychiatrist, two plumbers, and a bartender.

Feel free to argue this one out in comments, better album 1999 or Purple Rain? 'Let's Pretend We're Married' starting things off tonight.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE ART OF NOISE!

You better believe that's Duane Eddy on the guitar. 'Peter Gunn' theme up next with a little Music Series flair. 

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with KANSAS!

Sure, Johnny could have not gone with the official video and just a static card that said Kansas 'Point of Know Return' but when you have a video that's this bad, you show it. 

Johnny can hear Butthead telling Beavis these effects aren't very special.
