Golden Shellback is an amazing technology that waterproofs devices such as GPS devices, iPods, mobile devices and even laptops. This is all done with a waterproof polymer that seals the electronic devices and protects them from liquid destruction.

SuperTramp is better known for many other songs like “Breakfast in America”, “The Logical Song”, “Goodbye Stranger”, and many others.

I’ve always loved “The Wanderers” which was originally released 30 years ago in 1979. It was based on a book written by Richard Price and starred a young Ken Wahl. The story centered around a group of friends in the early sixties as they came of age along with the rest of the country after…

They achieved major stardom with the work they did with Janet Jackson but they created an incredible amount of fantastic work with other artists. For…
I just learned that the Knack’s leader singer Doug Fieger died at the age of 57 from lung cancer on February 14, 2010! Sharona, the girl he loved that inspired his biggest hit, My Sharona, was by his side during his final days. Here’s an excellent piece from NPR about the real Sharona. I loved…
The Verve’s “Bittersweet Symphony” is itself a bittersweet experience. It’s a beautiful song with some sad sentiments in it such as “You’re a slave to money then you die”. The story behind the song is also rather bittersweet as it was the Verve’s only big hit here in the states and all the royalties had…
