Pre-Fourth of July Trip

What do you say to a pre-Fourth of July Trip?  This one is going to be ALL about rock and roll though.

Click 1 - Burning Beard - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nIAnCJL1f0
I love me some Clutch, not really the guys, just the music!  Strange video.

Click 2 - Hank is Dead - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgV7hnjoyt0&list=RDkHxiouKy8Ho&index=3
Two thoughts, one, how weird is the whole shower scene at the beginning?  Two, its nice to see someone drinking cheaper beer than me!  OK!  So maybe I have a third thought, how funny is the whole air guitar contest.

Click 3 - Save me from Myself -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMz3DmVUHQI&index=41&list=RDkHxiouKy8Ho
Holy Cow, so you know my love of Orange Goblin and my love/hate relationship with the videos that are nothing more than the album cover and the song!!!!  This is no different!  This my favorite song on the album (maybe second favorite?) but there is not a real video.  I hope you like it.  I like the pseudo-harmony sound in the middle of the song.  I also like the whole concept of "saving me from myself".  There are times when I understand this particular lyric more than anything else.

Click 4 - Doomsday Machine - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2SdzgPj3_o&list=RDkHxiouKy8Ho&index=40
Kadavar has burst onto the scene with this super thick 70's sound.  I really like this song and band.

Click 5 - King of the Road - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zko7pBeHkk&list=RDkHxiouKy8Ho&index=26
Fu Manchu is awesome !!!!!  Their music has been used for various shows on AE and other skateboarding and bike building shows.  I originally found this song on one of those Jesse James bike building shows.

Click 6 - Space Lord - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dscfeQOMuGw&list=RDkHxiouKy8Ho&index=6
This might be a repeat, not sure in my current mind space, but Monster Magnet is one of my favorites.  I love this video!!!  This is another one of those guys that I wish I was half as cool as.  Dave is a strange combination of lots of things that make me wish rock and roll had called me into the fold earlier in life (or that I had had the talent for rock and roll).
