This is Danny MacAskill in "Way Back Home" - a short film showing his street trials riding.
It's incredible and worth watching all the way through.

Pitch Invasion!

It starts off fairly normal, but just wait until 30 seconds in.
There's another example at 2:36 & 3:02 if you can wait that long.
Superb!

The Saturday Men (West Bromwich Albion 1962)
This is brilliant and well worth half an hour - even if you're not an Albion fan.
There's a youthful Bobby Robson & Don Howe, plus Derek Kevan, Bobby Hope & Clive "Chippy" Clarke.
It shows how things have changed over the years. Stuart Williams is still Albion's most capped player, but he had to take a job selling machine parts when he retired. Can you imagine Marek Cech doing that?
See http://www.twohundredpercent.net/?p=4831 for more details and some other football stores.

BTW, it is SFW despite the YouTube warnings.

Midlake - Head Home
via youtube.com
Saw an excellent gig by Midlake at the Shepherd's Bush Empire last night. Hopefully they'll be back in the UK again soon.
The new album's a bit more laid back, almost like early 70s mystic/folk rock if that makes any sense. Anyway, this is my favourite from their second album, "The Trials of Van Occupanther".

After sitting through the slightly ropey song for the first minute or so, things pick up quite quickly. And then get stranger and stranger.
I'll leave you to make up your own minds about what the exit is all about...

Spoiler Alert - There are no short bald men or women in bikinis in this clip.
However, the driver does add a particularly impressive touch at 0:56.

Hadn't listened to this for while - I'd forgotten how good "The Trials Of Van Occupanther" is.
