Thesp Neil Patrick Harris is in the midst of cutting a deal with CBS and the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences to host the 61st annual kudos on Sept. 20. Insiders cautioned that the deal is not yet completed, but all sides are working toward setting Harris as this year’s Emmycast frontman as soon as possible.
That’s right, no confirmation as of yet but it’s looking like the Emmys this year will be hosted by NPH. Obama, Blink-182, Lakers, NPH…this list just keeps getting longer! Anyone wanna talk about How I Met Your Mother?
The week is SXSW, St. Patrick’s Day and Spring Break, which are three huge reasons to what? Road trip, or as I like to say, Bro Trip.
When the night sets in, drivers on the road wear thin, your pals pass out and you’re battling drowsiness, a great playlist is key towards making it another hundred miles or so. This week’s Flashback! Party Sequence is dedicated to the drivers traversing new territory this week. Good luck, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor.
To start is one of the greatest travel songs of all time, as dubbed by Wes Anderson. Hot off the Darjeeling Limited soundtrack is the Kinks’ “This Time Tomorrow,” moments this epic can only happen once per day.
Just because an epic Kinks moment can only happen once per day doesn’t mean that these memory-makers are over, we’ve got lots of eras to cover! Another awesome and universal roadtrip tune is the Smashing Pumpkins’ “Today.” Yes, the song may be written about suicide, but when you compose a piece that gets as Titanic as this it really belongs to our global society for interpretation, lets just say it’s about a roadtrip that will change your life.
But, as far as road trips go, nothing beats a great time with your pals and, of course, Neil Patrick Harris.
I take off on an 1800mi road trip to SXSW in several hours, so farewell for the next week or so. Gray and Matte will continue to keep your ears occupied.
EDIT: The movie was playing automatically and was annoying me so I’m sure it was annoying everyone else, you can watch it by clicking here.
Alright, so as much as I love Neil Patrick Harris, doesn’t he have anything better to do than make cameo appearances in Harold and Kumar movies and act as Spiderman in MySpace minisodes?
