Making people get up off the couch since 2004

About Me

LOS ANGELES: Three out of the five Broken Remotes on stage at the last show had the last name "WOOD." This is not some Ramones "everyone's got the same last name" thing... (in which case I guess we'd be called The Woods?) This is in fact just a crazy coincidence. What's even crazier is that two of the three Woods also have the same first name. I'm pretty sure none of this affects the sound of the music.

"Pages of The Weekly" on One Tree Hill...

Yeah, there goes our last shred of indie cred. Pretty cool that they went for the slow 6/8 jam, though. We weren't even sure this song belonged on the album, and here it is paying the rent. Go figu...

I'm a sucker for these old TV appearances. Howlin' Wolf's only US television appearance and he's introduced by no less than Brian Jones and Mick Jagger. Poke around YouTube and discover all the othe...
