I love that Louis gets to have the fun of playing so many festivals, festivals are his favorite! We know this! But also it's a very good move, like the problem with getting the scene he wants to get into him is just getting them to listen, once he gets the music in peoples' ears (preferably while they are tipsy and having a good time and ready to have some fun) it does stand up and they will like it and these festivals are exactly the way to do that, it's going to open things up so much for him and advance him so far down his chosen path

The 'Thievius Raccoonus - Rebound' project sign ups are now LIVE!!

For the past three days I have everyone's favorite lounge lizard Dimitri has slaved away over this very intricately designed cover for the book, but he forgot the most important part! The contents! He's going to need your help!

The book is going to need entries on all (canon) ancestors of Sly Cooper, if enough people sign up to claim all canon ancestors there will be room for original characters as well as 'Honorable Mentions' which are canon characters who have helped the Cooper family in some way, shape or form!

This project needs artists, writers and potentially even some extra moderation, depending on how many people sign up. Sign ups will run for two weeks from today, August 16th to August 30th. There will be a short period for the team to get to know each other and be given templates, guidelines and all other information they need to work on their page(s) and since I am a flexible person, I do not have an end deadline in mind yet as I'd much rather wait and see how large the team will become and what their needs will be.

If this sounds interesting to you: 1. ->You can sign up using this form <- as it contains an invite to the server where it will be hosted, so no need to wait for acceptance! This is an incredibly low bar entry project! It's mostly so you can apply for individual (or mixed) roles!

2. Share the post! If you want to see this happen but can't contribute, boosting it helps too as we're going to need all the attention we can get and the success (and size) of this project depends on the size of the team!

Today - March 22nd, 1984 - Queen Story!

London, UK - Queen videoed "I Want To Break Free"

The video for this song parodies a popular British television soap, Coronation Street. The opening sequence features all the band members in drag (Mercury as a housewife, Deacon as grandmother, Taylor as a schoolgirl, and May as a housewife). This confused many people who didn't catch the reference. Brian May was asked in an interview with Q magazine March 2011 whether each band member's character in the video was an accurate reflection of their personalities? He replied: "Of Course! Everybody thinks that was Freddie's idea because it looks like something that he would love to do but it actually came from Roger's girlfriend at the time, strangely enough. It was her idea to pastiche the Coronation Street women."

Location Docklands Limehouse Studio

Directed by David Mallet, with hundreds of fan club members dressed as miners as film extras

Freddie Mercury was all set to shave off his trademark mustache, but director David Mallet put a stop to it: "I said, 'No, the one thing you musn't do, the funny thing is that your mustache is there and you're in drag!' To this day, when he comes around the corner with that hoover I laugh." In this video Mercury is surrounded by the Royal Ballet in a nod to the French ballet L'Après-midi d'un faune and its clean-shaven Russian star Vaslav Nijinsky.

This song became an anthem for the ANC in South Africa in the late '80s when Nelson Mandela was still in jail and the white government's apartheid policies were still in place.
