Shall we start with a nice lil soundtrack to pump while browsing down the rest of the list? Sure, why not? Let's crank up the way back machine to 1996.
The band: Medeski, Martin, Wood.
The venue: Liberty Lunch in Austin, TX
The Minds: Blown
If you don't go for fan-shot video (and frankly, I dont blame you.) there's also this to whet your whistle.. Not a "Full Show" yet still packs as many face melts as any full show you will find out there..
While Eric Clapton jammed with the Allman Brothers Band at MSG for last month’s Crossroads Guitar Festival,
it was not the first time the acts met up in recent years. Back in 2009
Clapton sat in with the Allman Brothers Band as part of their 40th
Anniversary March Madness Run at the Beacon Theatre. Slowhand guested
with the Allmans on March 19 and 20 for each show’s entire second sets.

A 105-year-old woman from Richland, Texas says that the key to long life is bacon.
Pearl Cantrell’s love of bacon is so strong that the Oscar Meyer
Wienermobile made a stop through town last week to wish her a happy
birthday, all because she told a local news station her amazing secret.
“I love bacon, I eat it everyday,” she told a reporter for Abilene-based Big Country Homepage in April. “I don’t feel as old as I am, that’s all I can say.”
Wesley Warren, Jr. rests his scrotum on a
milk crate after boarding a bus in Las Vegas, in this Oct. 4, 2011
photo. Warren has a condition called scrotal lymphedema, which has
caused his scrotum to swell to over 100 pounds.
For five painful years, Wesley Warren Jr. watched his scrotum slowly
swell into a 134-pound mass that hung to his ankles. It all started with
a bad dream.
"I quickly sat up on the side of the bed after bursting out of an
incredible nightmare," said Warren, 48, recalling the mid-sleep maneuver
that "slammed" his right testicle. "I felt the most enormous amount of
pain that one could possible imagine."
The pain quickly subsided, though, as if "a big rig was rolling off" his
scrotum, Warren said. "I felt like I'd dodged a bullet."
But the nightmare had just begun. By the following day, the sack had stretched to the size of a soccer ball.
"I went to the ER and they treated it as though I had some kind of
infection," Warren said, recalling a course of antibiotics that had no
effect on the bulging mass. "I went to other doctors, and no one was
able to figure out anything to for me. They'd refer me to another doctor
or surgeon, but because I don't have insurance or the financial means
to pay for these folks on demand, the appointment would be six weeks
away or three months away."
Finally! We now know who was on the other end of this phone call!
7. And in Snoop News
You think he's just playin' when he says he's a pimp? WRONG! You think he was a pimp before he got into the rap game? WRONG! He was a pimp AFTER he got in the rap game.. why? Just because he's Snoop... that's why.
'It was never about the money; it was about the fascination'
When Snoop Dogg
called himself a "pimp" back in 2003, he wasn't joking. "I put an
organization together," the rapper-turned Rasta artist Snoop Lion tells
contributing editor Jonah Weiner in the new issue of Rolling Stone. "I did a Playboy
tour, and I had a bus follow me with ten bitches on it. I could fire a
bitch, fuck a bitch, get a new ho: It was my program. City to city,
titty to titty, hotel room to hotel room, athlete to athlete,
entertainer to entertainer."
While he doesn't name names, he claims professional athletes would use
his services. "If I'm in a city where where the Denver Broncos or the
Nuggets play, I get a couple of they players to come hang out, pick and
choose, and whichever one you like comes with a number," he says. "A lot
of athletes bought pussy from me."
My money's on Elway. You know those two are tight...Besides, he can't get Pussy on his own with those horse teeth.
8. You Like Jams? We Got Jams...
I've been on a weird kick lately of listening to phish/dead/whoever tracks that are long. And when I say long, I dont mean your garden variety 20 min YEM or your 25 min Playin. I mean your 40+min Tweezers.. your 50+min Foams.. your 35+min Dark Stars.. Anyway, all of those are put to shame by young upstarts the national...
The Nationalplans to release its ridiculous six-hour long art museum performance
of “Sorrow” as an LP—or, rather, as a nine or 10-LP set. So far there’s
no hard plan of when or how this extremely for-diehards-only set will
be released, but in a Reddit AMA, the band’s Matt Berninger says he
hopes proceeds from the release will go to benefit charity.
Playing the same song for six hours might seem like torture to some,
but, during the AMA, the group’s Aaron Dessner said it was a
quasi-religious experience. According to Dessner:
“As the hours went on I think we all realized that this experience
was something special for us—there was a weird hypnotic resonance and
spirituality to repeating the song over and over. We almost didn’t want
to stop and we learned something about our capacity for endurance and
the song opened up in surprising ways...by the end it didn’t feel like
we were playing it anymore.”
A Duncanville, Texas school district says it is looking into a cell
phone video-gone-viral of a student telling off his teacher about her
poor teaching skills.
The video shows a teen, apparently
told to leave the classroom, lecturing the teacher for being ineffective
and "reading packets" as he makes his way out the door.
"You
want kids to come into your class? You want them to get excited for
this? You gotta come in here and make them excited. You want a kid to
change and start doing better? You gotta touch his freakin' heart. Can't
expect a kid to change if all you do is just tell 'em," the student
says in the video.
"This is my country's future, my education," he says as he exits.
Deep, yo.. Deep. But not as deep as this:
10. MJ vs the Sheens
Words cannot describe this find from Grantland.. so I'll just let the video do all the talking. The play by play in the article is pretty amazing as well.

Internet is beautiful, in the sense that certain fads, memes, and
obscure pieces of media have multiple life cycles, with each rise to
relevancy enjoyed by new generations of online sleuths. Rarely are
things that have been dug up true Internet "firsts."
I had to remind myself of that today, as a clip made its way to my
inbox that, for a split second, I was sure had never previously been on
the Internet.
But of course it had.
Five years ago, on April 13, 2008, NESW Sports posted an article titled "Michael Jordan vs Charlie and Martin Sheen, Video." The post described a show, War of the Stars, and at the end of the description were two video clips.
Note.. they both happen to be in Florida.. That's clearly no coincidence.
12. Your Welcome I just saved you thousands of seconds over the course of your life.. of course, if you waste them all here, I guess that makes us even.
