This was a dope show. I've been bumping "Murs For President" all day! Here's the opening act, local boys "XI". I know the bass sucks in the videos but that's what happens when you're standing two feet from the damn speakers!



Right up next was Isaiah, his set was pretty good, too.



Kids in the Hall crew rocked this place.



Finally, the reason we were all there, MURS! His set was ridiculous! In this video, he performed "Can It Be".



This was an amazing show. Even though it was Sunday night, I still had a blast. Thanks for stopping by Murs!

Wow, the new MacBooks are looking very sweet. I was a bit disappointed with the price points not dropping, but hey I'm definitely doing to pick up one of these sometime next year. I'm just wondering, which one. What do you guys think? That 24" cinema display is pretty sweet, too!

I'm not a big fan of rebates at all. I'm still waiting on a $30 rebate which will probably arrive when I turn 45. This, however, is a rare exception to that rule. Memory for the Mac is very hard to get because of it's price point. I'm pretty sure it's because of the not-so-public Apple Tax. Whatever, if you need to bump up your precious MacBook or MacBook Pro (especially if want to snag one of those new ones that were announced today!), then this a great deal. Be weary of the the mail-in rebate, though (groan).
