If you’re a Van Halen fan, you probably already know that EVH is doing a couple of tracks for his friend Michael Ninn’s new porn flick "Sacred Sin". The two tracks are now up on the Ninnworx site. Great to hear Eddie back on the strings where he belongs. Apparently the DVD (out next week… that’s why I’ll be buying it… for the EVH soundtrack… ) will also have film clips for each track and there’s a short version of the RISE clip on the site. It’s pretty funny / sad. Even Michael Ninn, the great porn artiste, can’t bring himself to put the camera on Eddie apart from a few quick glimpses. As we’ve shown you before, EVH looks like death warmed up these days. Keef Richards looks healthier. Eddie looks like something from EVIL DEAD. But you can’t listen to RISE and not know instantly who’s playing the guitar.

I’ve had a couple of audio editions of G’Day World planned for evenings over the last week but none of them have come together. If you’re missing you’re regular dose, grab these instead for a bit of recent Cam ranting.

Caught up with some of the Microsoft guys yesterday to talk about my current Biztalk projects for TwoConnect (btw, any Biztalk developers out there looking for something better should contact me) and David Lemphers told me about his current project to build a robot out of a mini-ITX board, a paperclip and a 12V battery.

Someone tell Gus his blog is down. I don’t have his email address and I just googled it but came up stumps. I was just reading his review of the recent "Countdown Spectacular" in Newcastle and I wanted to leave him a comment to say how much I enjoyed reading the review. I especially loved his comments about Sherbet:
As soon as the band starts, the stage is rushed by fat middle-aged women who could care less about the earlier strictures from the guards. I can see an immediate look of panic in the guitarist’s eyes: “Fuck, this is what my groupies look like now?†But given that the band members now mostly look like elderly accountants, that’s not such a bad mismatch.
Countdown was obviously a huge part of all of our lives (now if Molly had died from a barb of some kind… and I’m thinking it wouldn’t be in the chest… then I might have some emotions). What will be the Countdown of the 21st century? Obviously it will be some form of blog/podcast. Video was a huge part of Countdown and I think the new music show should be video based. How many bands on MySpace are making their own video clips? Someone should be packaging up the best ones and putting them out as a video podcast. Ewan, are you listening mate?
