"band" news and stories

I thought I'd give you a little musical accompaniment to your coffee-drinking/blog-reading/procrastinating this morning. Blur's "Coffee and TV" is, hands down, the best music video starring an anthropomorphic carton of milk. Seriously. Try to find a better music video starring a carton of milk. I dare you.

Without giving too much away, the video's googley-eyed star makes his way through the city, encountering danger, suspense, and love on his quest. The video is worth watching through to the end, if not for the classic song, then for the oddly sweet, albeit slightly morbid, ending.

Ah, milk. It's tasty, it's satisfying, and it makes a great music video star.

The band KISS recently announced that they are opening a coffeehouse in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The shop, described by the band as "the most outrageous coffee and dessert shop ever constructed" will open its doors to KISS fans and the curious on Tuesday, June 27th - though those going just to take a look might want to be careful, since the shop is said to be "an official KISS Army recruiting office," though Gene Simmons said that "even the non-enlisted will find our treats and java rockin' good!" 

There will be KISS memorabilia, costumes and 20-foot tall smoking KISS boots (outside, not in the eating area). On the menu will be the KISS Cocoa, a variety of branded coffee blends and KISS Frozen Rockuccinos, icy blended beverages that are probably the signature drink of the shop and come in flavors like French Kiss Vanilla, British Toffee Invasion, Moka and Firehouse S'mores. There will also be a variety of cookies, brownies, cupcakes and other pastries and desserts.

From the look of their website, it seems as though they are already looking for ways to expand and possibly even for franchisees.
