Some Oldies but Goodies... and maybe you hadn't seenies?

Back in June 2007 when I first started out on this blog experience, I had really wanted to start posting some of these hilarious cartoons I had seen on this really cool site called Camp Chaos Camp Chaos . When the time came around when I wanted to post them, the site was down, undergoing changes or something, and if I remember correctly, they had taken a few of the best 'toons down!

They had these 'toons drawn, written and animated by Bob Cesca, (who, by the way has a cool blog: Bob Cesca's Goddamn Awesome Blog! Go!) about the Metallica vs Napster controversy. (see: About Camp Chaos) Metallica-especially bandmembers Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield got ripped for their stance against Napster music downloading, and I, being a proponent of downloading (not with Napster specifically, but just the premise of the whole thing-ultra-rich rockstars complaining about a few high school and college kids downloading some of their stuff for free) was happy about that. I didn't like Metallica then at all so those clips were all the more funny. Those cartoons were probably some of the funniest shit I had ever seen! In fact, I don't know if I have seen many 'toons that funny since. You have to know who Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield are, their personas, and how they speak to really get it, although with the dialogue and the visuals alone, it's still pretty funny. Lar's eyes are crazy! You have to see the way those eyes and the way they move around, and those great voices!

I also hadn't been able to find this really funny Toby Keith clip, but I found that one too! See way down below! I think that clip has run into some trouble from either Toby Keith's legal team or maybe Cesca felt it was a little too inflammatory (for post-9/11 feelings) at the time-either way, believe me-that clip is hard to find!

Guess what!? I found some of those cartoons that were the funniest! Here are a few of them! I am posting a Lars Ulrich interview so you can get a "feel" for his mannerisms!
