Double Guitar Version Of The Simpsons Theme

 
This is Zack Kim, and Zack plays guitars. Yes that’s right, guitarS.  Zack is a pluralistic plucker who today is performing a verbatim version of the theme from the The Simpsons using TWO guitars. Very clever stuff…
 
 
If you know this theme as well as I do, you’ll know that this rendition is note-perfect, even down to the timing and inflection on particular notes and passages. As a guitar player I’m having trouble following the zipping hands across two guitars, let alone comprehending actually learning to play it THIS well.

A Glow In The Dark Martini Mixer

 
Previously here at WD we brought you the golf-ball episode of Will It Blend. Today we have a special and spectacular double dose of WIB.  Our first contestant is the venerable JesusPhone from Apple. At a cost of US$600 this is definitely NOT something you’d want to try at home.  I really enjoy watching this over and over. Makes up for the saturation coverage this half-baked device has been receiving.
 
 
Next we have a solution for those nights when you’ve been out drinking and you get home and find yourself fumbling about in the dark for the house keys (assuming you’re allowed back in the house).
 
 
Stay Tuned For More…

Sulphur Hexaflouride: The Barry White Gas

 
It’s colourless, odourless, non-toxic, and non-flammable. Just like tofu. And much like tofu, Sulphur Hexaflouride gas is also six times denser than air which means it can be stored happily in open containers without escaping. We’ve all seen the crazy helium voices people can make when sucking in lungfuls of that inert gas.  Have you ever wondered if there was such a thing as anti-helium ?  Well according to the anti-periodic table there is no elemental gas that meets the requirements, however the molecular gas sulphur hexafluoride DOES fit the bill nicely.  Observe…
 
 
Now with the help of sulphur hexaflouride, or SF6 as he’s known to his friends,  you can sound just like soul legend Barry White at a moments notice. Sure to impress the ladies… or have them running onto the streets in fear, it’s all good.

Songs Of Praise - Now With Subtitles

 
Remembering the words to many religious songs can be hard. Now you’ll never have to "fake" those words during church sing-a-long at your local house of worship. 
 
 
Makes a lot more sense this way I think you’ll all agree

Happy 17th Birthday Spencer Elden

 
Who the heck is SPENCER ELDEN I hear you ask ? Well if you grew up in the 80’s and remember the dispruptive musical force that was NIRVANA arriving in the early 90’s, then you’re about to feel very OLD…   Back in 1991 a newly born baby Spencer Elden appeared on the cover of Nirvana’s iconical NEVERMIND album. 
 
This week on June 27th,  Spencer celebrated his 17th birthday.

The Vocal Impression Stylings Of Piotr

 
This is Piotr and he’s quite good at doing voice impresssions. We’ll be bringing you a selection of his work over the coming week here at WD. Our first entry is features SNL Host (Don Pardo,) Peter Falk, Al Pacino, Christopher Lee, Gollum, Robert Deniro, Louis Armstrong, Steve Irwin and Christopher Llyod
 
 
The Al Pacino is excellent, the Christopher Llyod (the professor from Back To The Future.. yeah THAT guy.. ) is also good. My favourite in this bunch is the Robert Deniro. 9.6 out of 10 for that one. Stay tuned for more Piotr.
