Turn Out The Stars

Greetings, camp Kotaku. It’s friday evening, and that means it’s officially the weekend! I hope you had a fun week. I sure did. We welcomed more simultaneous voices to Kotaku than… maybe ever?

Plus, we rolled out our plan to offer regularly programmed chunks of programming, sort of like we’re a TV network. (They’re still just regular Kotaku posts, though—we’re not actually becoming a TV channel.)

I am really excited about this, too, especially about my “Kotaku Melodic” music thing on Thursdays. It’ll start next week!

This guy reads his daughter’s facebook wall and shoots her laptop – Oh, man. Oh man! This is amazing. And sort of disturbing.

10 Brilliant Rube Goldberg Machines – Maybe it’s just talking about Ghost Trick, but this is awesome.

“Metallagher” – A Metallica tribute band covered by a guy who looks like Gallagher. Okay, then.

“Barack Obama eating Things” – Rule #40 of the internet is, there’s a tumblr for that.

Here’s how Brachiosaurs get it on – I have always been curious about that. They must need one biiig cigarette for after.

Here’s Steve Vai jamming, caught on candid(ish) camera – You know, people make fun of Vai for being an empty shredder, but that is BS. This guy is a freakishly talented musician. Fun to see him doing his thing.

Here is Bill Evans playing “Waltz for Debby” – Because it’s been kind of a long week and we all deserve to just sit back and listen to this.

That’s what I’ve got. Have good chatting, and a lovely weekend.
