Mesopotamia - musical weirdness with the B52's

Mesopotamia - musical weirdness with the B52's Mesopotamia Mesopotamia was the third album from new wave rockers B52s from Athens Georgia.  It is also arguably the worst selling album of their career, but for a short record (there was only 6 songs on it) it had the band deliver music past their trademark kitsch to alien musical landscapes.  Most of the direction in this avenue probably came from the producer David Byrne (of talking Heads fame). B52s - Ricky Wilson, Keith Strickland, Kate Pierson, Fred Schneider, Cindy Wilson Certainly, the experimental vibe of the albums Remain in Light, and his union with glam pop scientist Brian Eno My life in the bush of Ghosts continued in the quirky songs of Mesopotamia.  Starting off with the weird pop mantra invocation 'Loveland' Cindy Wilson turned in one of her strongest vocal showcases.  Next was the weird 'Deep Sleep; with Kate Pierson leading us into the realm beyond sleep...definitely weird and atypical for t

Missile to the moon

Missile to the moon When you think of the innocent gee whiz 50's sci fi films, few are easily earnest than The Missile to the Moon.  A remake of the schlocky Cat women of the moon, essentially a by the numbers sci fi film that begs a mystery science theater 300 treatment.   With black spiders, sexy cat women, and moon monsters that lumber and betray their cheap costuming.  Worth a look for spandex and monster fans!

UFO's and bigfoots in Kentucky

UFO's and bigfoots in Kentucky UFO and Bigfoot sightings in Kentucky In Kentucky in the Anderson county area, there has been a strange connection of UFO's and bigfoot sightings.  Is there a link between Crytpids and UFO sightings?  I will be doing some research on a possible connection.  If anyone has a story about an encounter with UFO's. weird creatures, or weirdness in general, you can leave it in an anonymous comment (UFO's are still a social stigma).  The strange thing is there is a wide spectrum of strange creatures all around the country. Recently I spotted a UFO over Versailles, Kentucky.  Not sure what I recorded, but it definitely was not a star since it was stationary.  I zoomed in with my camera, and then I realized it was a moving light that quickly alternated colors.
