If you like to read your music videos, here’s a video that makes sense of the “Be Stupid” Diesel ads. The clip features “Honeytrap” from We Have Band.

Just to update you guys, we’ve added a top 10 male celebrities in skinny jeans for you to the original skinny jeans post written back in January 2009. Don’t like our choices? Feel free to love to hate us.

We had a lot of fun last week going out to see a B.E.A.R. showcase at Jimmy’s Lounge in Hollywood. We didn’t get to see the whole show, but everything we heard was great. Would you expect any less from The Briefcase Rockers though? The crowd was an interesting mix at the show and the music that B.E.A.R. pushes is unique. We said it before and we’ll say it again: everything we’ve heard from The Briefcase Rockers is music worth listening to.

We got six video clips of the show (after the photos), two of Juan Huevos–who came all the way from North Carolina to make it out to the show–and four of ERAs. It was too bad that we couldn’t get more, but that’s all spilled milk now.

On Juan Huevos, we think he is a dope live MC and his performance was get-up and kept the crowd locked-in. Bringing a cover of Avril Lavigne, and getting half-naked towards the end of his show, it’s a performance we’ll never forget. However, we like Juan Huevos’ flows and instrumentals and find his style exciting even without the show and dance. Huevos’ is upbeat and different. Good things.

People like a good show, but if there’s not substance to the music, you could put on the best show in the hottest venue out there and it would be like eating a burnt grilled cheese sandwich at a five star restaurant.

Nathaniel Eras, or ERAS, really rocked out as well. Twiddling knobs and having fun while he played, things stayed engaging. Even though more abstract, glitchier music and melodies are more of an acquired taste, if you spend much time on the site you’ve probably noticed that we love experimental music in general and especially where technology and music meet. ERAS had a high-tech gadget-driven sound that we always enjoy hearing like sipping on a unique-flavored foreign drink.

At any rate, the show was hot. The videos are a bit dark and aren’t the best representation of what the show was like, especially since we didn’t manage to record all of the artists that performed, but that’s why you have to go out to these events for yourselves. We look forward to future shows from B.E.A.R.: rock, rock on.

What better way to open a new Diesel store than by feeding some musicians dinner? Diesel jeans are notorious for being some of the best jeans out there, while also carrying one of the biggest price tags. We’re not so into the whole “For Successful Living,” slogan of Diesel, but we do think they make good quality jeans. It’s also cool that Diesel is an Italian-based company. Their location in Rome is pretty different from any location in the US though. For instance, the pants sold there are typically sold in one longer length that you then have to get hemmed, as opposed to having a selection between different pant lengths. That’s not an issue though, because the store has a tailor there who will custom-fit the pants to you–free of charge–but only on certain days of the week (which may be too bad for you if you’re just a tourist in Italy at the time).

Our two favorite artists from the video that follows are Theophilus London and Spank Rock, but we’ll probably be getting back to you on the rest of them at some point in the near future. Looks like the food was pretty good at the opening. Diesel doesn’t have to pay-off hipsters to sell cool clothing, though: it was just a coincidence!
