Nine minutes of awesome awesomeness.
Buster Wants to Fish gets, unsolicited, a pretty cool theme song.* The BWTF Jam (*The first recognized blog theme song in recorded history goes to a fly fishing blog. Suck it Kos.)
Ween covers Van Halen and whacks stripers on the Jersey coast. That’s about all you could want in a rock outfit. (Plus, they put out 12 Golden Country Greats.) Check out Brownie Troop Fishing Show, put out by Dean Ween. (Link via Moldy Chum)

This painting of a dobro suddenly appeared on the lobby wall outside my office. Nobody saw anything, nobody knows how it got there.

There was a time when MTV, which stands for Music Television, actually played music. I can’t remember when it switched to an all-reality, all-crap format, but I’m no longer in their demographic anyway, so what’s the difference. But when they did play music videos, a few seminal ones stood well above the others. Here are the FJ top five of all time. These are not reflections of my favorite bands or songs in the least, I am basing this purely on the video. (What does this have to do with fishing and a fishing blog? I have no idea.) 5. Put ‘Em on the Glass. Sir Mix-A-Lot. Have you seen this one? Probably not since it could never be aired on anything but late…
