The Young Dubliners have announced they are recording a new album, but doing it independently this time. More and more bands are doing that these days, but it requires a lot of dedication from the fans & listeners. The album will cost a lot to make, so the band has setup a pledge drive our their site (think Kickstarter) and you can purchase various things to help the Young Dubs meet their goal. You can buy a digital download, get signed CDs, t-shirts, and then the pricier pledges will get you VIP meet & greet, dinner with the band, guitar lessons and even a ticket to Ireland with the band in November. Very cool! Visit youngdubliners.com for details! Read more from the band below!

Everything about Bobby Joe Ebola and “Carmelita Sings” is odd and weird and different…and I think I like it. They’re a band that manages to sound like everyone and no one at the same time. The album is also a re-release of a re-release with new artwork, inserts, pins, stickers and downloads provided free of charge.

I love music documentaries, and there’s been a few on The Warped Tour alone already. Maybe this one will stand out from all the rest? You can watch the movie in select theaters on March 1st, or just wait for DVD/iTunes/etc. in May. I’ll probably wait til May since I don’t really venture out to the movies anymore it seems these days. If you’re attending the Slamdance Festival, you can also see the movie on Jan. 22nd as well.

The Muppets Blu-Ray and DVD is coming out on March 20th from Walt Disney. I’ve heard lots of good things about the movie but didn’t get around to seeing it yet. Quite frankly, I was getting sick of seeing the trailer for it every movie I saw in the theater. Plus, it’s always nice to see a Muppet or children movie at home, where there is no crying or talkative kids so looking forward to seeing this one. Press release is below:
