Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?!
I... I got nuthin'.
UPDATE
Looks like this video got flagged (Who knows...?)
and has had its embedding disabbled.
But that's okay, you can still find it here.

If knowing is half the battle, then what does it take for the win?
I admit, as a geek and a child of the eighties,
I have, up until recently, been really excited about
the up coming G.I. Joe movie release.
I was.
But now they've released the new tralier and I have to say
I'm all but covinced this is going to be even more
fluff filled than X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Looks like they're doing there best to really grab hold of the campy,
cartoony silly sci-fi of the old cartoon, and not giving what the matured,
original audience has ben hoping for; a more serious Tom Clancy styled action thriller.
Oh, but there is good - and some what ironic - news;
Adult Swim on Cartoon Network has given us just that.
So, now I'm reconsidering the new movie even more.
Yo Joe...

First look! Megan Fox on the set of Jonah Hex!
I admit I had no idea Jonah Hex was in production,
let alone it would star John Malkovich
and Transformers hottie Megan Fox.
Here's pics of Ms. Fox from the shooting set.
Note the tiny waste that corset give her... OUCH!

IronChuck says: Listen to this!
And welcome back to a far too long neglected feature here at The Conductor's Office. Since we're brushing the dust off this topic, let me start it off with a real bang by presenting to you one of last year's real stand out indie releases...
From the mountains of North Carolina comes Matt King; Blue Grass in his heart, and Rock 'n Roll in his throat. With harlots, coal miners turned bootlegger, and murderous scorned women in his family tree (As well as a Gospel singing family), Matt cut his teeth touring under a major label; learning the ropes to break away solo.
Matt's music has a country sensibility lit up with a rock flare. Mixed with lyrics rooted in traditional mountain style blue grass and country are hard beats, radical instrumentation, and a flamboyant sense of showmanship. However, his art as a song writer never loses heart; well illustrated on his album Rube in songs like "American Dream" -the woes of a worker and the broken promise of a future, "Shanty Town" - beating back the trap of the small town monster, or the reflective "Graveyard Shift". Take a spin with "Cursing the Ohio"; the tale of country love gone wrong.
Much like Alabama 3 did for Gospel style Soul fused with Techno, Matt King brings to the country rock fusion. I found that once I had this disc spinning, I didn't want to... no, I couldn't... make it stop. This is one of those albums that gets inside you and gets everything rocking... HARD. There are rocking songs, soulful songs, and fun songs.
"Songwriting forces me to try and connect to the world," says Matt, "most of the time it has the opposite effect and I swear that I'll never get out of my own head."
IronChuck gives Rube, by Matt King SIX out of a possible five shots of whiskey!
Matt King's Rube is available from Montage Music.
