I didn't.
So let's just jump in, shall we?
First off, it wouldn't be SayWAM if I didn't talk about Lady Gaga every other post. This is that post.
Turns out, I'm not completely crazy and Lady Gaga is the new creative director for Polaroid.
The still unnamed camera will have the traditional Polaroid 300 style, instant camera. Rather than producing the beloved 4x4 prints, an ink-made 3x4 photo with the noteworthy white border. And shockingly enough, the camera is said to have a "pretty whacky" design.
I, for one, am pretty excited. Will I have one? Probably not. But I can't say I'm not curious to see what happens with Lady Gaga behind the Polaroid wheel.
Also, today is the two year anniversary of the lovely Lady's first album The Fame, which was actually first released in Canada on August 19th in 2008.
And finally, just because...Well, just because I think it's funny...
Moving right along...
I'm really, really, REALLY into this band right now.
I feel like they're an awesome combination of Panic At the Disco, Mika, and a footnote of Queen.
Aren't they...fun?.........OK, that was easy and cheap and kind of lame, but they are! Also, they're on tour. You should seriously consider picking up a couple tickets, grabbing a friend, and heading out to a show. I know I'm going to because they're going to be at the Varsity Theatre in Dinkytown (Minneapolis) on October 12th. To hear more of their music, get more info, and check out tour dates, check out the link below.

Speaking of fun, this is fantastic.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Bacchantae, Columbia University's cover of Ben Fold's famous cover of Dr. Dre's "Bitches Ain't Shit". The girl in the lavenderish dress-thing? Hilarious. She looks so uncomfortable the whole time.
You may or may not remember many, many blogs ago I discussed Rock Band 3 - due out this coming holiday season. You know...the one that's going to have a keyboard and everything?
Well...The setlist for the whole game might have been leaked...Maybe. At least that's what Time.com's Techland is saying. Here's a few of the track that will be included:
- Amy Winehouse -- Rehab
- Blondie -- Heart of Glass
- Blood, Sweat, & Tears -- Spinning Wheel
- INXS -- Need You Tonight
- HIM -- Killing Loneliness
- James Brown -- I Got You (I Feel Good)
- Huey Lewis and the News -- The Power of Love
- Pheonix -- Lasso
- Phish -- Llama
- John Lennon -- Imagine
- Night Ranger -- Sister Christian
- Rilo Kiley -- Portions of Foxes
- Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
- The White Stripes -- The Hardest Button to Button
There are many, many, many more. And I swear I picked these out of the list completely at random...Except I intentionally left out the B-52s. I just really, really, really hate, loath, and otherwise despise the B-52s.
Last but not least...
I picked this little gem up at my neighborhood Cheapo a couple weeks ago.
I'll let you know if it is, in fact, full of "lotsa larfs & sex" - as the back advertises directly above Rocky's little gold speedo.
That's all I've got for tonight. But you bet I'll be back.
On Sunday, actually.
Because I haven't forgotten about Picture Spam Sundays either.
Tune in.
