  • Thanks to fans Barbara and Edward, we’ve got a bunch more looks at the festivities in Brantford over the weekend, including the first shots from Saturday’s live SModcast. There’s a lot more where these come from via their online galleries (1, 2, 3, 4) as well. There’s some nice shots of Puck U in action here, along with some Kevin/Walter stuff. Thanks to all who sent in their photos.

The Twitter Report…

  • Kevin’s been a little more active in the Twitter feeds lately — Including the big announcement of Forgeticus, Part 2, the free SModimation we’ve all been waiting for, which we’ll lead off with here. There’s also more links from Brantford, reminders of upcoming chances to see the live shows, a hope for a street hockey tournament on the east coast, and lots more. Here’s the best of Kevin’s tweets over the past few days:

      Go watch FORGETICUS Pt2 – the brand new SModimation from @Starktoons! http://www.smodcast.com/smodimations (My FAVE moment: the slap @ 2:52)

      I just came from SModcastle tour. @CamelToad fucking crushed it! The place exceeded my hopes. Has the absolute feel of being in my house.

      Via @amadcow2 “any roundup on how PuckU did in the tourney?” Puck U won the ViewAskewStreetHockeyLeague Cup this year, going 3-0. No puking!

      Dear @NHLDevils. Can we hold a Street Hockey Tourney in your massive Rock parking lot this October? We can get about 100 teams, I imagine.

      Via @mylifeasrach “How Smith @smosier & @BryAndWalt rocked my sat night: http://bit.ly/cwNEzL ” Very nice. I agree about STEVE-DAVE.

      Via @WhosMikeus “How was the hockey tournament” A metric shit-ton of fun. Watch! See for yourself: http://ustre.am/:vjn9

  • View Askew alums Morris Day and The Time (“Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back”) have announced that they’re reuniting for a new album and tour. Welcome back, fellas.
  • Jason Lee’s new show, “Memphis Beat”, premieres June 22nd on TNT. If you’d like an early look, AMC movie theaters have been running a segment on it during its 20 minute pre-show news lately. So far, we’re liking what we see — Lee should knock this one outta the park, too. It was weird not having “Earl” back on the tube this year, but it’ll be nice to see Lee in front of the cameras again this summer.
  • This week on Retro Radio, “Clerks”‘s Marilyn Ghigloitti takes on John Wesley Shipp, “The Flash” — Listen right now at the official Retro Radio portal on the web. Her new show covers film, tv, comics, music and more, with a retro slant of the 1980’s.
