Burka Band
The Burka Band was an all-female indie rock band from Kabul, Afghanistan, now disbanded. They performed anonymously, all of the members wearing burqas in an apparent protest against the Taliban’s rules regarding Islamic dress. They released a single, “Burka Blue” and a self-titled album in 2002. They have been called the “Spice Girls of Afghanistan” and played Western rock instruments – electric guitar, drum kit while wearing traditional head-to-toe burkas. Their hit single features them singing about burkas, in English: “…My mother wears blue jeans now, and I am so surprised, the things are changing faster, I don’t know if it’s right…”

The 2000 Year Old Man, 50 Years On
The 2000 Year Old Man sketches originated in a party when Carl Reiner started asking his friend Mel Brooks a few ad-lib questions that resulted in some hilarious answers and kept the guests laughing for over two hours. According to an interview the two gave to Ari Karpel of the New York Times they came up with the idea in a lull in the writers room of “Your Show of Shows” for which they both wrote.According to Reiner:
I always knew if I threw a question to Mel he could come up with something… I remember the first question I asked him. More >
The end of art: How to paint the Mona Lisa with MS Paint – another youtube first
Once upon a time, not so long ago, it took a genius to paint a picture like the Mona Lisa. For years art students around the globe have spent days learning the techniques and attempting to create a fair copy of da Vinci’s masterpiece. Now thanks to the wonders of Microsoft Paint (found amongst your Windows applications) and a clever guy on YouTube all that has changed. Is nothing sacred anymore?
The Truth is all Fiction Baby
Lucy is no longer with us. The four year old girl who was the inspiration for Julian Lennon’s kindergarten picture (see right) is now one with the stars and the diamonds. For years no-one believed that the premise for Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was actually so simple. Not L.S.D. at all! But then the idea that the winner song was all about a trip made much better press and at some stage the then dead McCartney just gave up and allowed everyone to believe what they wanted – yes you were all right it is about a More >

British Radio Comedy: Goon but not Forgotten
The Goon show is probably the most famous, popular and idiotic radio show ever to hit the air. The combined talent of Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers and Harry Secombe can’t be beaten and was a major influence for comedy to come such as I’m sorry I’ll Read that Again, Monty Python, Soap and The Museum of Everything. Milligan did most of the writing and regularly played the parts of Eccles, Minnie and the devious Moriarty, Sellers was Bluebottle, Henry Crun, Major Bllodnok, Hercules Grytpype Thynne and of course Secombe was Neddie Seagoon. One of the most popular running jokes More >
Currently from Current: The Rotton Tomato Show
Anyone with an Iphone or Ipod Touch can easily download audio or video podcasts via Itunes. Many of the podcasts, that promise TV shows on the fly, actually offer no more than two minute teasers and are really not worth the effort. The guys from http://www.current.com/ offer the real thing – full half hour shows without commercial breaks. The shows are full of comic interludes though the actual reviews are 100% serious. The most fullfilling show from current, in my mind, is the Rotten Tomatoes Show, hosted by the talented Brett Erlich and Ellen Fox. The show borrows it’s reviews More >
