Foo Fighters teasing ‘X’, Confirmed For SNL with Dave Chapelle

November 5, 2020 | Kevin

Dave Grohl and the crew, could be teasing a new album based on signage that fans have shared online in and around the Los Angeles area. This would be the Foos 10th album so that might explain the “x” but we do not know much more thant that. You can check out the teases have been popping up that also include images of a burning coffen down below. You can see also quick teaser videos from the band themselves with the hashtag “lpx”.

As if that was not enough good news from the Foo Fighters, we got confirmation the alternative band of bands will be performing this weekend on NBC’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ with comedy legend Dave Chaepelle hosting. It will be interesting if we see the band use this national TV opportunity to play a new song possibly. Two great Daves on one show together, 2020 has some bright spots I guess.

November 4, 2020 | jnettlebeck

You know what the worst possible thing that could happen to Mitch Trubisky after losing his job to Nick Foles?

Getting injured on the only play that he got in on during last weeks game.

Oh wait…

The extent of the injury is unclear. Luckily he’ll still be able to fulfill his  role of standing on the sideline.

Poor guy.

Dreams do come true…

When you think “dream job,” what comes to mind?  Getting paid to play with puppies? listen to music? (it rules) browse the internet?  If you said browse the internet then this job for Opera is for you!

Imagine getting paid for browsing the web. Imagine no more. We’re looking for a personal browser – a person whose task is to browse the web. Yup, you heard us right.

Sounds like a joke? It sure isn’t.

As a “Personal Browser” your task is to browse the far corners of the web and talk about the fun and the weird stuff you come across. We will help you to find the good stuff – as, quite frankly, we have seen it all. Your work days will be shared online.

For this important role, we’re looking for the kind of person who loves silly memes, watching baby seal videos and studying conspiracy theories. Yes, you.

You can think of it as a damn great gig. You’ll get paid €8,000 for two weeks of something you’d otherwise do for fun. You can finally turn your pleasure into business, browse for money. Now, that’s the easiest coin you will ever earn. And you can do it from anywhere in the world.

We don’t demand much from you

  • You love the web
  • You know what a browser is
  • You talk to yourself, a lot
  • You have a computer and a stable internet connection
  • You speak fluent English

A Japanese adult film company Soft on Demand  just opened up their very own five story ‘adults only’ theme park in the red-light district of Tokyo, Japan. They are calling it SOD Land.

The 18 and up theme park only costs $5 to enter, and has real life adult film stars serve guests.

Sorry kids, Mickey and Goofy are no where to be found at this theme park. This one is just for grown ups!

A New App Lets You Set Up a Legally Binding NDA Before Sending Nude Selfies

November 3, 2020 | Tim Virgin

If you REALLY want to start sending people naked pictures of yourself . . . and who doesn’t? … but you’re worried about those pictures getting leaked, here’s a solution.

There’s a new app called e-gree that lets you create a legally-binding non-disclosure agreement with someone before you start sexting.

Once you both sign the NDA, if they leak your nude photos, you can sue them and have the same legal standing you’d have if a lawyer had drawn up the contract for you

You can download e-gree for free for Apple or Android, and if you want to set up one of these sexting NDAs, it’s only 99 cents.

Happy Birthday to Tim McIlrath of Rise Against!

November 3, 2020 | Kevin

Happy Birthday to Tim McIlrath of our beloved hometown heroes Rise Against. His passion for music, doing what’s right, and representing Chicago in such a special way has never wavered since the band broke out to be a worldwide sensation. Over the years at PIqniq, the Nights We Stole Christmas, and even just running him into on the streets like right after playing Wrigley Field, Tim has always just been down to Earth around these larger-than-life situations. Let’s celebrate our special times with Tim and the RA gang down below.

Listen to our new long-form interview on our new History of Alternative with Tim McIlrath about how politics have inspired some incredible songs in the alternative space.

Feeling a Halloween candy hangover? Listen to RA’s Tim sing Misfits ‘Halloween’ with Frank Iero of My Chemical Romance, Mike Herrera of MxPx/Goldfinger,  Angels & Airwaves drummer Atom Willard, and Ryan ‘Fluff’ Bruce from Dragged Under.

At Piqniq saw two superheroes unite to bring ‘power to the people’ as Tom Morello had McIlrath join him on-stage with a lot of WKQX listeners. It was surreal to say the least. Watch this wild video of that here.

 

Spend some time with this special Lounge session we taped with Tim and our various interviews with him through the years.
