Weekend Of Magnetic And Rock Band Love

Posted by admin on

A LOLmagnetz shoutout on LiveJournal degenerated into a discussion worthy of the ages. It was pitched as a gift for Death, apparently. LOLMagnetz. You know. If you have a fridge. I imagine you don't eat much. I wonder if Death has a sense of humor. Bret, social games guru and friend/drinking-buddy of breadpig, gave the band some love on his recent entry: The Rock Band Effect and the Historical Value of Musical Performance And while you're rethinking the entire music industry, check out Popcuts -- yes, breadpig is one of their featured bands.

Achtung! LOLmagnetz!!

Posted by admin on

The breadpig is in Austria right now and getting Google News Alerts auf Deutsch. This is fantastic. Here's a blogger named Nimue, who needs a kit of LOLmagnetz, badly. Mein Inner-Geek-Girl braucht diese Kühlschrankmagnete… I think we all have a little inner-geek-girl inside us who craves these refrigerator magnets. There was a very thorough writeup on neuerdings.com, which indeed covers new things: LOL Magnetz? Manche werden sich denken: “Was zum Teufel ist das?” Aber Vorsicht: Cieling Cat hört alles! LOL Magnetz? Some will ask themselves: "What the devil is that?" But caution: Ceiling cat hears everything! It then goes on...

Autobots Heart LOLmagnetz

Posted by admin on

LOLmagnetz recently made some more appearances. Bordom.net deigned the kit worthy of combating boredom. That's when you know you've arrived, when you're on a site that's dropped the "e" Flickr-style for maximum Web 2.0-ness. But the coolest appearance to date was on a Transformers forum. No word yet on whether or not it's a favorite of Autobots or Decepticons, but my money is on the former. Or maybe these magnets are the one thing that can bring these two warring groups together at last...

The Breadpig Renaissance (How Many Times Can The Breadpig Be Reborn, Anyway?)

Posted by admin on

After the Internet Superstar appearance, the breadpig band had a nice renaissance. To that point, breadpig salutes all of the new converts and thanks you for all the shirt orders. Spintown showed some love, but I should correct a comment he made: This video was made by one of the creators of Reddit.com. I think it's the only band I'm talented enough to play with. You think it just anybody has the talent to play in breadpig? You've got another thing coming. Between the three of us in the band, we've got a combined 39 years of musical education at...

Breadpig Officially An Internet Superstar

Posted by admin on

Breadpig was invited to bring some LOLmagnetz and a shirt to and interview on Internet Superstar, hosted by Martin Sargent. +10 points if you noticed the shirt I was furtively showing off Both breadpig and the SF-SPCA (our partners in LOL) got some nice plugs and Martin was a gentleman and a scholar. I think we might see each other again over drinks and with candlelight. And to top it off, LOLmagnetz got a nice shoutout on Gigababy's Buffet. No, we at breadpig hadn't heard of it either, but that's OK. That sounds like a very big baby, which implies...
