fiogf49gjkf0d Luke Ski Update - April 6th, 2008
Hey everyone, Luke Ski here.
It's been about a month, and a bunch of stuff has happened or is about to happen, so here's what's up,
Here's a review of "Baconspiracy" by Baron Dave Romm: www.suprmchaos.com/bcEnt-Mon-033108.index.html
And speaking cool funny music revues,
Attention people in or near Rochester, New York! My good friend ShoEboX of Worm Quartet is going to be the opening act for MC Lars this Saturday, April 12th at Water Street Music Hall, 204 N. Water Street, Cost : $5.00!
And speaking of nationally seen nerds,
"Happy" Steve Chai (of Yankovic.org fame) has a lot more reason to be happy these days. He was on "Wheel of Fortune" last week where he won $80,350.00, and a trip to Thailand! Congrats Steve!
And speaking of winners,
You can see the winners of the MarsCon 2008 Dementia Macros contest at lukeski.livejournal.com/277401.html .
And speaking of MarsCon 2008 related competitions,
Dementia Smackdown Wrestling presents: The 2008 Marscon Dementia Track Battle Royal
Recorded live at Marscon 2008 in the Dementia Radio Party Room, this battle royal pits the artists from the Marscon Dementia Track and have them battle for supremacy:

And speaking of brutal, bloody dementia,
My newest song posted at the FuMP (www.thefump.com) is "The Chainsaw Juggler"! I closed the MarsCon 2008 Dementia Smackdown concert by performing a cover of the original version of the song "The Chainsaw Juggler" by the Four Postmen. Not only was this song the #1 song of 1999 on "The Dr. Demento Show", but it is also possibly the greatest comedy song of the past decade. With the approval of the mighty mailmen themselves, I now present my studio version of the song, featuring cameo appearances by Art Paul Schlosser, Carrie Dahlby, The Consortium of Genius, DJ Particle, the Gothsicles, Hot Waffles, Possible Oscar, Power Salad, Raymond and Scum, Rob Balder, Robert Lund, Seamonkey, Sudden Death, Throwing Toasters, Tom Smith, Whimsical Will, Worm Quartet, and Wyngarde. Rock out, dude!
And speaking of the FuMP,
In case you missed my track from last month, check out my tribute to one of my favorite movies of 2007 in a song titled "Wilbur Robinson" (www.thefump.com/fump.php?id=1027). Also, "The FuMP: Volume 7" CD which features my songs "Jack Bauer" & "Everybody Get Weird" (the Art Paul remix) is now for sale at the FuMP Store. Check out the cover & back designed by yours truly: www.lukeski.com/Vol7front2web.jpg & www.lukeski.com/Vol7backweb.jpg .
And speaking of the usual plugs, here the are,
