Ryan Adams: The Motion Picture

"History Lesson" a film by DRAdams from Ryan Adams on Vimeo.

More video! This a short movie by Ryan Adams. In his own words:
"HISTORY LESSON! -- rough idea, rough editing, even borrowed ideas i know, but i come from where people make their own records, and learn along the way, hoping for the best. like punk/harcore records. sometimes the rawness is the very thing that makes it BE just what it is. anyway i’m damn proud to leave this here, a little new york city note to myself, to remind me of home as the west calls and i miss it so."

Check out Ryan Adams' excellent new blog.

an awkward message from michael stipe

Awkward but funny. I love R.E.M. Ed. note -- this is the first video on the blog. Kudos to the tireless Awkward Monkey staff.

a page from scandal past

Ah the good old days. I miss Bill Clinton. Spiegelman = Genius.

and now, back to the monkeys

From artist Jill Greenberg. Check out her amazing stuff.

there will be blood

A bizarre classic. This is still Sherwin Williams Paint logo. I love the splatter on the North Pole.

robot basketball

This is the original logo of the Fort Wayne Pistons -- now the Detroit Pistons. This makes my favorite team all the more awesome.

it's all about grooming

Some of the finest facial hair this side of Rollie Fingers.

pour some ketchup on me

Bizarre. Maniacal. Tasty.

long live the king

The rat king!

drunk clown = scary clown

But the neon clown is scariest.

monkeys of the rising sun

True fact: Japan has the highest per capita GDP for a nation with an indigenous primate population. From the looks, even the monkeys seem to be living well. They also have the best gadgets.

wigity whack

I recently had a request to feature wigs. Done. (Note the picture on the wall in the background).

cute (not awkward)

In answer to complaints that this blog has gone too disturbing and weird. Enjoy.
