This shit is Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Today, someone in Negroclash made a post about Cobra Starship. I'm not sure what to call this: a side project? commentary on the current state of pop culture? a comedy routine? Whatever it is, it's the brainchild of Gabe Saporta, lead singer and bassist of Midtown (They did the opening theme song for that Real World/Road Rules challenge where Puck spit on David). On his myspace page is his hilarious response to Gwen Stefani's Hollaback Girl. It's called Hollaback Boy. I laughed through the entire thing.

You can download the track or stream it from Cobra Starships' myspace page.

Gwen should love this. You're nobody until somebody parodies your song.

In other news, Bella Lea had to cancel the rest of their shows scheduled for June and the beginning of July due to lead singer Maura Davis' recent back spasms. She wrote an apology to those who would be missing Bella Lea here. Hopefully, she'll make a quick recovery and get a lot of well deserved rest. The band should be back out on the road in early August.

Head Automatica and theStart are playing a bunch of shows together in July. I'm upset that their tour is not coming anywhere near here. Someone just doesn't want me to see Daryl Palumbo ever again. Here are the dates:

July 08th Portland, ME - The Station
July 09th Clifton Park, NY - Northern Lights
July 10th Danbury, CT - Empress Ballroom
July 12th Lancaster, PA - Chameleon
July 13th Washington, DC - Nation
July 15th Louisville, KY - Headliners Music Hall
July 17th Cedar Falls, IA - The Reverb
July 19th Denver, CO - Bluebird Theater
July 20th Fort Collins, CO - Aggie Theater

July 23rd Seattle, WA - El Corazon
July 26th Orangevale, CA - Boardwalk
July 27th San Francisco, CA - Great American Music Hall

And last but not least, our little Avril is all grown up now. She's engaged to Deryck Whibley, lead singer of Sum 41. Isn't it great when two Canadians fall in love? Why are all these young people getting engaged and married? I feel like I'm living in another time. In a couple of years, I won't be surprised if fathers start trading their 15 year old daughters for goats and chickens.
