WOW! Bacon Bros.

Sign in to disble this ad
I am here drinking some wine (stressed cause i'm having my mother over to my house for the first time tomorrow for lunch), cracking up with some PM's to Maki and was watching that funny Scottish dude on the Late Late Show..

The musical guest:

The Bacon Brothers

WOW! Either I'm drunk or they had a great sound.. all live and the tune was well written.. I had no idea Kevin Bacon had a band! Time to hit iTunes!

You guys ever heard of them??

Yep, on iO TV there's an On Demand channel called LifeSkool. They did a special on the Bacon Brothers and I liked them a lot too.

Sure beats Footloose.

For some reason I want this thing to fail, but it's really good. I think it's the end of the world. Damn.

I've heard them before. Very good stuff. Now the six degrees of Bacon extends into music as well.

That...was slick.

Much moreso than the other stuff floating around out there he's done.

I guess he's starting to take it a little more seriously.

Good for him.

I haven't had this album off of repeat since I downloaded it last night.

Going through for the third time and I'm still amazed.
