Video Game Music Sorbet: Boombots
Every Saturday the Fair Use Law banditos like to sit down with a shot glass of the finest tequila, siesta with a delicious dish of burritos and nachos, and chillax to the aural splendor that is video game music. Today we step up into the Playstation 1(X) days with Boombots, a fighter that featured some kick ass claymation cutscenes from the folks behind Skullmonkeys, excellent music, and not much more. So instead of wasting a fiver buying the game to play on your own, please to enjoy everything good about this game in one video:
I'm A Hardcore Gamer And I Can Attest That This Is Awesome
Now this is how you advertise a great looking remake of a sleeper hit from yesteryear on a new console:
Chris Jericho and Delirious: Operation Destroy Ladyboy
One of Fair Use Law's favorite wrestlers is definitely indy superstar Delirious, known for being just a little bit less than sane and also right up our alley. Please to enjoy this interview conducted by Y2J Chris Jericho with the Delirious One as they explain everything from auctioning off car doors to how all Japanese wrestlers are Ladyboys, the famous Pay-winda, and even how Delirious prefers to be paid (hint: it ain't money):
Pop Songs Done Better?: Pokerface by Daughtry
In the interest of full disclosure, I must confess before my lord and savior Hecubus and all of you readers that Daughtry has been the only American Idol contestant I've ever voted for. Even more disclosure: I hate Daughtry the band.
Yet seeing Daughtry alone with an acoustic guitar covering Lady Gaga as serious as humanly possible is one of the weirdest things I've seen in this or any cosmos:

Episode 216 - "Always Double Down On Peace"
Welcome to the 16th episode of the second case file of the Fair Use Law podcast, as the Sticky Bandits that make up the triceratops tribunal awake to find the next two weeks of podcasts tattoo’d on on various parts of their body. What does it all mean, faithful listener? Well, we’ll have to play this Momento reference out by posting episodes in opposite order, of course!
This week we also discuss why no one should ever buy Stay Up Energy Supplement as a visual gag for an audio only podcasts, just what UNICEF pennies taste like, the inappropriate way to greet a Catholic priest at a funeral, and more!
Now roll the crap!
Sure, we might be waiting for a lucrative endorsement deal to come in for Stay Up Energy Drink, but even we have to point and laugh at that late night gold that is the ExtenZe infomercial:
Ever wonder what goes through my head as we do these podcasts? I know you do, so here's a little sample:
And using advanced technology, I can also present a 100% true to life representation of what goes through Randy's head not only during this podcast but at all times:
And definitely not to be left out, I give you what goes through Baker's mind at least 4-5 times a minute:
Home Alone 58: Breaking Podcast News
We interrupt your normally scheduled podcast blog to bring you Macaulay Culkin setting Chavo Guerrero up the bomb:
Also, this tidbit from the Sticky Bandits 2000: expect a few changes in the podcast and this site this week. To make sure things hit iTunes in a timelier manner, we will be updating new episodes every Tuesday, complete with new show notes and videos to go along with them before I even hit upload on the mean bean podcast machine. Also, thanks to the wonders of having a second recording studio/Macintosh CSI crime lab in my once breakfast nook, expect this site to get a bit of an overhaul as I finally can go back to my safe, beloved Photoshop after literally being GIMP'd all these PC using years.
That is all. You may resume your work week!

Video Game Music Sorbet: Legend of the Mystical Ninja
Every Saturday, the Fair Use Law Sanitarium/Speakeasy opens its windows and doors and blares the sound of bleep-y video game music glory to all our confused and out of the loop neighbors. Spurred by a recent Wii Virtual Console purchase, I give you the downright catchy and always kitschy Legend of the Mystical Ninja:
Video Game Music Sorbet: Super Adventure Island
Every Saturday, Fair Use Law Labs/Sanitarium likes to unwind and relax by sitting back with a master cylinder of our favorite beverage and some Rainbow-flavored twizzlers as we fill our eardrums with the pleasant bleeps and bloops of nostalgia. This week we visit the original video game play-ah himself, Master Higgins, with his first 16 bit adventure as he warms our hearts with a cool island beat tinged with some smooth R&B for the ladies:
To Be The Muppet...
You've gotta beat the Muppet!
Sesame Street was boring as hell before they added the double ring battle royals and cage matches.

Good Music You Should Know About - Karnivool
With this band, I might be trailing a bandwagon, but even still I must spread the word of their greatness. I found them on a list of dark metal/industrial bands a few months ago with their first CD, the epic Themata, and they just released a new CD. For fans of Tool and complicated metal with technical time changes a plenty, I give you Karnivool's Set Fire to the Hive:
In These Troubled Times...
Sometimes it's hard to cipher through hours upon hours of media coverage and newspaper articles to find the truth about the American way of life. Sometimes it takes a really good metaphor or a visual aid to help bring the truth to the surface. Worried about tomorrow? Worried about America? Then watch this and learn that everything is going to be alright:
Episode 213 - "I Hear Jesus Has A Death Note..."
Well I hear you came to see a rock show. A big gigantic... uh... Doc Oct show?
I'm afraid that show has been canceled due to "logistical problems." But may I interest you in episode 213 of the Fair Use Law podcast?
I start the weekly show notes off this week with a bit of apology. If you follow us on Twitter, I think it's not exactly the plot of Momento to piece together what's been going on, but I can assure you that things are more or less back to normal thanks in large part to the excellent, post-crisis line of products from our favorite online retailer: Precious Roy!
Another new occurrence this week on the cast o' pod is this week the tricycle momentarily misplaced a wheel, as I co-host the show with the King of Mondays Randy Lewis and we discuss all things Connecticon, which happened just last weekend. I hear it's a place where things such as this happened:
It's an anime fan thing. I can explain it to you but then I will never ever get laid again.
Something a bit more video game geek mainstream (hello oxymoron!) happened this weekend, too, as everyone dressed as Team Fortress 2 characters (which accounted for roughly 187% of the attendees) decided to conga:
One thing that I've always loved about Connecticon were the awesome anime music video contests. And luckily for you, we have this year's winner for Best In Show which is a tribute to Avatar. Enjoy this now while we can, before it has the Taint Of M. Night on it:
All this talk of conventions and video game geekery really makes me nostalgic for the 8-Bit Nintendo days... or maybe it doesn't:
Oh the glory days of 8-Bit. Even the Game Boy can bring a nostalgic tear to our eye, right Action Hero Kirby:
And finally, here at Fair Use Law, we lost a very dear and close member of our family this week.
That's right, Smackdown Superstar and King of the Rally Up Ricky Ortiz was shown the door by an apathetic and marginally thinking WWE. It's times like this where it's best to lie to yourself to make things alright:
Rally up today, listeners. You might not be able to rally up tomorrow.

Video Game Music Sorbet: Fester's Quest
Every Saturday here at the Pay As You Exit/Fair Use Law all purpose recording studio/bar and grill we like to recline in chairs made of fine imitation leather (or pleather) with a sifter of imported brandy and enjoy the finest music of yesteryear. Thankfully, even the worst Nintendo games had some of the best music, and this week is no exception. We're pouring a Game Genie on the curb for our crappy NES game lovin' homies that aren't with us no mo' with this ode to Fester's Quest:
Episode 212 - "Get to the Chemo!"
Welcome back my friends to the podcast that never ends. This week on the Fair Use Law docket we present to you many various and wonderful ideals and concepts, but let's get to the videos!
How would a PG rated 300 fare? I'm sure YouTube can show us already:
I'm sure Sam L Jackson might have a response to this kind of mindless censoring:
And because we talked about Golden Axe and/or Blue Oxen on this week's episode, here's a visual treat for the Sega geek in you: the Golden Axe skeleton warriors need a hobby in their downtime. They chose football, or as we call it in America, ignored:
And lastly, because it's apparently allowed nowadays and we can't keep it to ourselves, here's the entire episode of "Knifin' Around" from Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Share it with a loved one today:

Video Game Music Sorbet: Bubble Bobble
Every Saturday, we here at Fair Use Law like to sit back wearing our finest smoking coats with a sifter of brandy as we cleanse the old palette with some of the best music the 8 and 16 bit generations have to offer. This week, we turn whale ghosts into delicious candy with Bubble Bobble:
