A Special Valentine from Rachael Kilgour and Paul Lundgren to All Y’all
Rick Boo is totally comfortable with this song. It is not sitting well with him.

Below is video footage from last Wednesday’s “Paul Lundgren Happy Hour” at Teatro Zuccone. As a primer for the video, you might want to read my latest column.
Props to Dean Vogtman and Dan Fitzpatrick, videographers extraordinaire.
You know you’ve always wanted to see somebody go off those jumps at Chester Bowl, now you can.
Just in time for the Olympics, learn about Duluth’s world-class ski jumping history, and support both Chester Bowl and WDSE public television at the same time. Come take in a movie and hear some stories from Chester’s ski jumping legends. Kid-friendly early and late showings, conveniently overlapping the Paul Lundgren Happy Hour right upstairs.

Prince doing a traditional fight song. ’nuff said.

Very new Duluthian high school indie rock band Excuse Me Princess has released a video for their song entitled “Some Time to Kill”! It’s pretty radical, I’d say.
The video for Retribution Gospel Choir’s single “Hide it Away” on the upcoming album 2 clearly shows the band members burying a treasure on Park Point. I task you, people of Duluth to search out and find (or discredit the existence of) said treasure!

This Jay-Z parody was created by three 17-year-olds from St. Cloud: Matt Aalbers, Jordan Neu and Jack Ashcroft. They’re making a cameo at First Avenue’s Best New Bands of 2009 night on Jan. 15.
Duluth’s Jason Wussow and Dan Dresser are featured in this “On the Road” segment from KSTP-TV.
Here’s a really cool video showing one R&D company’s view of the future of e-readers. Having been in the publication design biz for years, I loved seeing somebody take the idea of an electronic magazine beyond the blog or web site format. Some of the stuff they do in here is really cool, and features the photography and art beautifully.
Somewhat related, I saw a few posts today speculating about the fabled Apple Tablet, what it will actually be, and whether it will be a disappointment or not. I was saving up for an iPod touch, but I think I’ll wait to see what shakes out from Steve Job’s announcement in a few weeks.
