Rocco's Pop Revolution: Seen through the eyes of someone living it

Posts Tagged ‘The Last Goodbye

Together. They rolled in the deep together.

And then he sang “The Last Goodbye” at whatever concert this was and The Skibster and D Man look like waiters.

I’d let them serve me bread and salad.

Where was this show?? When was this??? You all let me down….. why haven’t you been keeping me updated??? How am I supposed to enjoy vacation, if I have to constantly keep up with D Man stuff???

Geeez guys!

Anyway, good show D Man… I like it!

HOO RAH! That’s hot. I don’t even know why he’s doing that, but I don’t care. I love watching people do push ups (real ones) because I can do like 1 1/2 and then I break into tears due to my quivering arm muscles.

There is so much D Man goodness lately, I can’t even keep up (thanks to all for sending me stuff… I really appreciate it). But this is really important because it’s the Wal-Mart Soundcheck and I’m hearing songs from This Loud Morning for this first time.

I have to say… I’m into this album D Man. I’m digging it.

Who names a song “Circadian”?? Only D Man. I actually looked it up to see what that word actually means because I say it, but have no idea what I’m talking about. D Man is smarter than me.

“Time Marches On”…. kill me now. Great drum track during the verse. Enough said.

“Take Me As I Am”. The way the Skibster tickles those ivories drives me banana sandwich. But besides that… this song is pretty. I like it mucho!

And if you click HERE you can see an interview and The Skibster’s haunting eyes some more. But also D Man and is perfectly groomed beard.

Good stuff!!

-Rocco

PS is there a solo interview with The Skibster??? Or was someone lying to me? NOT COOL!

 

(And by Cooks I mean, COOK! I’m leaving it because typos are funny and I’m not a robot.)

“Oh this is where I left my gum yesterday……”

I’m spreading the rumor that D Man ate gum off of that wall.

Want to spread another rumor??? How about David Cook is actually an intelligent man??? I firmly believe all musicians are morons outside of chord changes,  but D Man said the words “sitar”, “sonic landscape”, “romantic idea of the escape of sleep”. D MAN!! SPEAK TO MY SOUL!

Click HERE to see a behind the scenes look at the making of This Loud Morning.

I know you guys are all thinking the same thing I am… there is nearly not enough Skibster happening in that video.

Whoever the photographer was at this Wal-Mart Soundcheck business, was not in the correct business because there are no shots of my boo Andy Skib, or as he is now affectionately known, The Skibster!

All I got is one….

The photographer could have at least yelled “FIRE!” so he’d look up with his big eyes, all concerned and filled with loving warmth. I’m sure The Skibster would turn into Mr. Hero and save all the kittens and puppies in the building. What a dreamboat! (spell check wanted me to change that to “steamboat” which is also a great name for hottie tottie above)

Anyway, D Man and his band performed for Wal-mart Soundcheck and those videos are not released yet, but here are some pictures.

It sounds good via these pictures… so I can’t wait to see the video. You can click HERE to watch this preview over and over again. That should hold you over.

I finally saw “The Last Goodbye” video and thank Oprah D Man is alive. Whose gonna represent the snap pants if he’s not around?? No one is the answer to that question.

I read on another unmentionable blog that this video was “cute.. very cute.” I wouldn’t actually describe it as cute muchacho. It’s more of a Law & Order episode, which is excellent. What is cute is this:

I'm cute

Is that the guy I’m always in love with??? I think it may be and if it’s not than I’m a giant playa playa, which is actually one of my goals in life, so power to me.

Anyway, I have no idea how to embed this Vimeo video because I’m pretty sure Oprah owns that company (because she is the ruler of all) so I click HERE and watch it for the 48753489754839th time as I enjoy it for a 2nd.

-Rocco

Something is difficult for him right off the bat in this video, but what I’m finding difficult is why D Man and Neal (?? everyone in his band is going to be Neal to me from here on out by the way) felt the need to look like twins.

D Man: Hey Neal.. check out my new plaid, hipster shirt.
Neal: Oh I like it… look at mine.
D Man: It’s the same thing.
Neal: Yeah.. is that cool? Or will we look like silly geese-s??
D Man: Silly goose or silly geese we look HOT!! Should we wear out glasses??
Neal: Nah too much.
D Man: You’re right homie.
Neal: Yeah bro! *high five*

That second verse still feeds my soul sour patch kids. Love it.

-Rocco

PS Thank you ljrTR for the video!

**EDIT** I made a mistake, but is that not expected from me. I give nothing but false info all day long. It’s someone named Neal who may or may not have kidnapped David Cook and stolen his shoes. Some freaky stuff goes on when a bunch of guys go on tour together.

D Man is making quite the loud statement with his fashion choices. 

He skinned a albino alligator for those shoes. He regained his Alligator Man status.

-Rocco

PS Thank you ljrTR for this photo.

D Man was playing music, but like Lee D…. I think he has found another source of income.

A novelist. No one wears thick, black rimmed glasses without a plaid shirt to accompany the glasses, unless you are an author. Then you go sans the plaid button down.

James Patterson is my hero. Seriously.

Do you wanna read my first draft of my crime novel??

Maybe I should write sci-fi

I can’t wait to read his first book.

-Rocco

D Man is a busy bee and has recorded an acoustic album and called it the most clever name on the planet.

This Quiet Night

OMFG!!! It’s the exact opposite of This Loud Morning. DAVID COOK IS A GENIUS!

Nothing says Happy Friday like another David Cook album reveal! We’ve told you about the amazing fan edition that features David’s exclusive acoustic EP, This Quiet Night, and today you can now view the official cover of the EP. This Quiet Night features never-before-heard acoustic performances of several songs from This Loud Morning and is included in all of the different versions of the This Loud Morning pre-order at David’s Official Music Store. There won’t be a better fan edition than this!

That is all I have.

-Rocco

I get it. If we are dating for over a month, you already annoy me. Anything over a month means that person chews too loudly and they don’t know how to wash the toothpaste out of the sink. And they definitely don’t laugh at my jokes anymore.

David Cook shot the video for “The Last Goodbye” and it pretty much has nothing to do with the song, because basically it’s the tale of a person gone missing. I really hope Nancy Grace is in this video because that woman loves talking about missing children and people.

He dated Kimberley Caldwell?? Never would have guessed that. Keeping it all in the family. <—- I don’t know why I said that. That doesn’t even make sense.

Thank you ItsMyTime for this video.
