I don't think I have to explain what Entourage is. If you're not aware of it, do your homework NOW!
Despite its premises, the series features four (five, actually) of the most charming characters ever to appear on a tv show.
And since we're charming (and huggable), I decided to compare the five main men from the HBO hit to the four E.B.I. boys. All casting decisions are final.

Eric = Frigo
Eric's the good guy and Frigo's the good guy, Eric always falls for blondes, Frigo always falls for blondes. And I could go on and on and on.

Vince = Nop
I don't know if Nop is superstar material or if his looks are as good and Vince's. But he's definitely the top man.

Turtle = Sbando
Last wheel of the cart as he is, Turtle is still a nice fella, a bit of a loser but good at heart. Dresses like a rapper too (although I have twice his age).

Drama = Sbando (2)
He's the ultimate wannabe/washed-up/has-been/pretentious/funny-against-his-will/banned-from-the-Mansion joker. Choice was easy.

Ari = Bunny
NO CONTEST. So alike, it's freakish!

Not a typo! It's the BAPE watch, as in "famous people wearing BAPE" (A Bathing Ape, that is).

Two more usual suspects: The King Ad Rock, on a book cover. And Micheal on Conan, wearing an AMAZING red shark jacket that will now sell on eBay for twenty million dollars (+ shipping).


(If you're aware of any BAPE lover, or if you've spotted some celebrity waving the ape flag, let me know.)

The NEW TGP (Aug 15, 2006) is ready. :) Enjoy eurobabes in all their nakedness, or various state of wetness (and then some).

Not a typo! It's the BAPE watch, as in "famous people wearing BAPE" (A Bathing Ape, that is).

And who else if not the Monkey King himself?


(If you're aware of any BAPE lover, or if you've spotted some celebrity waving the ape flag, let me know.)

109 KB, sources are Hot Vidéo and, of course, Pierre Woodman. Starring Lolita.

How about Sasha & Diggers live at Events Hall? Isn't that hot? Don't you feel ecstatic?

And the sexy little devils are all around you!

I think I recognized the beautiful girl from the icecream ad. What do you think?

The Maxibon ads are very popular in Italy. They even helped launching the career of The Last Kiss star (and Laetitia Casta's very lucky significant other) Stefano Accorsi. From angelic French goddesses to Latvian sirens?

Not a typo! It's the BAPE watch, as in "famous people wearing BAPE" (A Bathing Ape, that is). Starting with hyphy god Josh "DJ Shadow" Davis.

If you're aware of any BAPE lover, or if you spotted some celebrity waving the ape flag, let me know.

This one's really cute. Stop the press! Thanks to master Viv, you're getting the scoop. I cloud 9 when I want to!

This is an in-joke (of some kind). Only a few are meant to get it.

Thank you to be there in my hour of need, y'all.
I might as well be a stiff by now and completely forgotten.
And when I'm a stiff, I mean Kurt-stiff, will I finally be happy?

Later, I'll post a list of people who has screwed me, taking (good) money from me. It's a promise.

For now, a request:
STOP ASKING FOR TRAFFIC, LINKS, SPACE, if you have NOTHING TO GIVE IN EXCHANGE!!
And: if somebody PAY YOU (up to 10.300 euro, you know people. Names will follow), FUCKING DELIVER!!!

At present, I'm in a position in which I need a little to pic to be cut in Photoshop and a little banner done. And I feel ASHAMED TO ASK! Like *I* have done something bad.


On the other hand, the site is still on sale: 350.000 $ and it's yours.

Ok, no Roadrunner, Pablo Picasso or Ice Cream Man allowed, too easy.


You Can't Talk To The Dude
is a song about misanthropy. Not just the difficulty to communicate with your s.o., but the complete unwillingness to. "Your sense of humor has gotten worse/Now that you live with a guy who can't converse.../And things will never be right/Until you go, go go.". Gem n. 1.

Fender Stratocaster
or "everythin' your parents hated about rock 'n roll". The Velvets' number 1 fan, Jonathan loved the wangin', twangin', tough sound of a Fender Stratocaster. Let girls play Gibsons.

Velvet Underground
I can't remember how many times he watched them play live. Dozens, at least. And the reaction was always the same: "How in the world were they making that sound?". And remember kids: "Bold and brash, sharp and rude,/Like the heats turned off/And you're low on food. So, if the lead singer's dad runs Elite Models or something, he's most likely a poseur.

Summer Feeling
Lyrics too beautiful to quote just a few lines. They're about that summer feeling that comes and haunts you when you start growing up. And things you've lost for good.

My Jeans
"I said my jeans they are a frayin'". But he wants Wranglers: "And don't talk Levi's because I've tried/My hips they had no room to play in/and my little bum felt all trapped inside".

Down In Bermuda
is the sweetest song ever, with a girl asking "Jonathan, Jonathan/I wanna know something/Well have you ever been to Bermuda?".

Important In Your Life
Let me know that I'm important in your life.

Roadrunner
Ok, I cheated. But I got the AM!! I got the power of Massachusetts when it's late at night!!

There's Something About Mary
Yes, the movie where Ben Stiller fights the pooch and Cameron Diaz uses spunk instead of hair gel. Jonathan plays the Greek Chorus and gets shot in the end.

Back in Your Life
By now you'll be wondering: "who the heck is Jonathan Richman??" And: "your top tens don't even have ten entries, man!!". But that's the spirit.
If you get it, then you won't mind a list of obscure songs by that basker from "Mary". It includes: The Velvet Underground, New England's twilights, Wrangler jeans and faraway seas. Anybody who can sing:

"I will wait a long time, if that's what it takes,
But someday I wanna help your mamma when she brings out the pancakes"

will always have my admiration.


(Lyrics from this page)

No, it's not a song by Nine Inch Nails. We have RSS Feeds!

Add these to your RSS reader of choice (personally, I'm using my espresso machine):

LATEST BABES
LATEST SNIPPETS

All courtesy of Nop's scripting skills (I wonder what the Python community thinks of the traffic we send them :) ).

Wherever you are, lazee boy and lazee girl, on your hammock, under your porch or by the lazy river, it's that season of the year again! Bees are buzzing, birds are chirping and cherubins are singing again (or you simply had too many disco smarties).


Goldfrapp, Black Cherry
Alison flies really high on this one, although I suspect the song is about fellatio (but with love). Golfrapp is always a good choice. This track in particular was conceived in the bluest spot way above the clouds.

The Shamen, Move Any Mountain
I can move move move any mountain! In my mind, that is, 'cos my perception is a bit altered. And is that sunlight, inside my mind? (Archive under "Second Summer Of Love, The")

Kelli Ali, Groupie
Kelli is one of our heroines, sexy and just a tad sleazy. She can be my groupie every time she wants, by day and by night, when it's summer and in winter too.

DJ Shadow feat. Phonte, Backstage Girl
Wow, one the most haunting songs ever about looking for love everywhere but in the right places. I don't know who's telling the story here, Shadow or Phonte, but it rings so true it hurts. "I told her straight up 'I got a significant other'/She said: 'For tonight I wanna be your insignificant other'"

Tiefschwarz feat Tracey Thorn, Damage (Buick Project Mix)
It's not EBTG, nor Massive Attack or Deep Dish, but it's still Tracey, people, and this is a nice mix.

Neneh Cherry, Buffalo Stance (Baker Fast Pop Mix)
I used to have a HUGE crush on Neneh, back then. What a cool track, produced by Tim Simenon and Mark Saunders.

Ice Cube, Today Was A Good Day
"Today I didn't even have to use my AK/I gotta say it was a good day". Although I did have, you know.

Dusty Springfield, Am I The Same Girl
Sometimes I'm also wondering, am I the same girl?

Tin Tin Out feat. Shelley Nelson, Here's Where The Story Ends
They could craft a shiny pop song (or cover), WEHT Tin Tin Out?

Jamie Liddell, Multiply (Live at Jools)
Jamie Liddell is a tech head from Warp Records but he sings like the Revend Green and the mighty Otis himself.

DJ Shadow, This Time (I'm going To Try It My Way)
If you really want to look on the bright side, this is a wonderfully soulful piece. Dreams need to be followed thru.

Looky look what I found here, browsing an old IDJ mag. Does that look familiar :)? We never found out who the cutie is, by the way. If you know, IDJ people, let us know. We'll let you know the name of the uncredited photographer :).
Full page here. (BEWARE! Evil dwarf lurking at the right bottom of the page!)

As you can see, according to them, Budapest is "Eeastern Europe's best-kept dance music secret", Bulgaria probably being the most talked about dance scene right now. In the article inside, they mention the Budapest Parade and the Haijogyari island clubs. And they drop a few names too, heavy ones, Van Dyk, Tong, Seaman. But we know that many more faves of ours have been playing there (see Desyn Masiello's epic sessions from various Hungarian clubs).

And if you're looking for more info and you're maybe planning a trip there while your girlfriend is in Greece with her friends: Heaven Budapest. Geez, boys, "HEAVEN BUDAPEST", it must be something good, right? There, more events and more pix (correctly credited :)). You can also listen to "69", by Shane54 & DJ Junior feat. MICHELLE WILD!


Suggested iPod tunes: Desyn's Balance 008

Suggested friends: hey, look around! You're practically surrounded.

Love: 200%, clouds: none in sight (ok, I copied that).

Sbando Boy doesn't want to work. He just wants to bang on the drum all day.
