Gladiator Birthday Party?

Nick's birthday is coming up again, and after the smashing success of last year's fan project (may the 'stache rest in peace), I was wondering what the thoughts were for this year. Yes, we should do something else...or no, let's not overdo it?

I'm thinking if we DID do something, it should be something ridiculous and gladiator themed. Why? Because of this (and because Laura mentioned it):



I'd be more than happy to put something together again. I just wanted to know if you all thought it'd be too much of a good thing, what the interest really was, etc.

Let me know!

Oooo, tumblr blog!

Just wanted to point you all in the direction of a FANTASTIC source of great pics, Nick Cave's Moustache over on Tumblr. The blogger there posts from some sites we're familiar with (including this one!), but there are many pictures even I have not seen before. Seriously, GREAT place to while away some time and expand your Cave collection.

THIS ALONE was enough to sell me. I don't know where that came from, but they found it. :D

Woohoo! Go check it out!

I don't know what he's talking about 'cuz I am too fascinated by his sweater.

Rolling Stone to the Booyah

Okay, my lovelies, I got this Rolling Stone CD-Rom for $4.99 at Borders. These were the only noteworthy Nick Cave goodies on it I could share. ENJOY!!!!

Click for the big. He mentions Tom Waits in the second one. :DDD

Babe, I'm On Fire GIFS (Part Two)

The next post is going to be something more akin to the huge batch of original Kicking Against the Pricks stuff I posted a bit ago.

For now, as I prepare to start celebrating my weekend, here are some more "Babe, I'm On Fire" gifs I keep forgetting to post. The first batch IS HERE. Oh, and Blixa ones ARE HERE.

Using a weird site to host these, so hopefully they work.

If you click them, you can see better-quality full-size...in another window that is rather annoying, but at least not overrun by ads.

The king of strange, spastic dancing.


Milking a kangaroo?*


The thumbs-up sign is super badass, apparently.


Blixa attempting to impale Nick with his guitar.


Sadly, he dances better than I do.


Oh, a birthday party...haha. Clever. ;)


Don't remember the character, but I love this.


Aww, a sweet little goth!


Most horrible moth ever.


The clever circus flea is hypnotic.


This one particularly gets better when you click it.


*there's a ZITS comic strip where the main character, Jeremy, is preparing for a dance. His friend says he looks like he's milking a kangaroo. Just if you thought I came up with that...nope.

Grinderman News! BOOYAH!

New Grinderman release date (September 14th in America)! European Tour (please come Stateside)! New band photo! Promo video!

Nick Cave Fixes' post.

Those NCF lovelies may have beaten me to that, but via Jamie Warren, who found this on the Grinderforums, I bring you this. The most amazing concert flyer of ALL FREAKING TIME. NOT an edit. This is a REAL ad, from Grinderman's forum AND their facebook. Hahahaha.

Oh, click it...it gets bigger and more hilarious.


Nice undies, Nick.

The Singer

Not sure if I've ever seen this performance. I think I'd remember the weird, slightly creepy way Nick is looking at the camera at the beginning.

Video from marcoscraggs. Nick looks so handsome. And I love that he's chewing gum. Is it just me or are his live vocals not in this? Isn't that the album version? I don't know; it doesn't sound live to me.


And my favorite N.C. song (along with "Are You the One..."), from StinkyBohoon. I never have seen this done live, so I think the quality is forgivable:
