Music: Clawfinger - “Pay the Bill”

Hey it’s Marcus Couch, welcome to The Scene Zine episode number 157. We’ve got a lot of great music in this episode. As always we are brought to you by Godaddy Code ZINE3 for $6.95 domain names and also the Nokia N810 Internet tablet. We’ll talk about both of those things later on in the show but let’s give you a band here from Los Angeles, California to start things off this is The Murder Room and “Dead in California”.

Music: The Murder Room - “Dead in California”

Music: Soil - “Shining Man”

From Chicago, Illinois that is Soil with “Shining Man”. Before that of course is The Murder Room and “Dead in California”, though I’m feeling quite the opposite here in the Laguna Beach California studios of The scene Zine. Let’s officially start the show here as I open my Monster Energy drink. This is product placement here; They are not a sponsor of the show but would sure like them to be, so let’s unleash the beast together. (Can Opens) OK let’s take a quick sip here. This is like Michael Butler and the Rock and Roll Geek show how he opens the first Heineken, except I really don’t drink beer, so… Here we go with a Monster. (sips) Ah! Very nice, always wanted to do that. Now I can officially say I’ve got a vise on the show. It’s this monster energy drink. I love these things.

All right let’s talk about some actual paying sponsors. First let’s give you the rundown. We’ve got Godaddy and Godaddy promo code ZINE1 (Save 10% on anything), ZINE2 (Save $5 on any $30+ purchase), and that magic code of ZINE3. If you guys are into flourishing your ideas online like I am, I know I’ve got about 200 domains of various stature that I use for different things in business, different things in music, and some of them are just personal things, but Godaddy is always a place that I’ve gone to and I love em. I’ve really been intrigued by the different services that they’ve got, some of the cool hosting things and all the databases and SQL stuff that goes along with that. So check them out. Godaddy.com use the code ZINE3 to buy your domain names and if you want here’s a really great tip for you. Buy five domains and you’ll get free private registration. For 5 domains your total cost $35.75. That totally rocks!

Okay now let’s talk about the Nokia 810 Internet tablet. This device is incredible. I have one of these in my hands right now. I’d say it’s a little bigger than iPhone. It’s Wi-Fi, it’s Bluetooth, and it’s GPS. It has a built-in QWERTY keyboard, it is touch screen. The thing is just cool! It’s really nice to grab this thing first thing when you wake up, or when you’re doing your daily sitting ritual, seeing what kind of email you’ve got. You can check your Gmail; you can read documents, spreadsheets, that kind of thing. I’ve got a site set up for a Nokia N810 coupon / promo code for the N810 at n810discount.com. At that site you will find all the N810 promo code store links. There are various countries that can take advantage of this and let’s see if I can remember them all from the top of my head. The US, Canada, the UK, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, and Sweden. The site n810discount.com is where you check out the Nokia N810 Internet tablet, and if you use the Nokia promo code SCENEZINE in checkout you can save yourself $72 in the US and Canada and 15%, which is an equal discount, around the rest of the world so it’s a hell of a discount. 72 bucks, that brings the price in the US down to about $407 for this device. I would consider and classify this thing as a laptop that you can put right in your pocket, it is that cool. So check out the Nokia N810 Discount page n810discount.com. It’s where you find all the links to all the different country stores, and I would appreciate you mentioning that you heard about the N810 on The Scene Zine to all your friends and anybody else who might be interested in this device. Okay let’s get back to rocking. We’re going to stick with the Chicago theme here. These are my friends Shadoz Edge from Chicago, Illinois. I used to manage this band and actually did most of the sound effects that you hear in this particular tune, especially right here in the beginning. This is Shadoz Edge from their album Reinvention with “Entity”.

Music: Shadoz Edge - “Entity”

Back by popular demand it’s Karnivool with “Shutter Speed”.

Music: Karnivool - “Shutter Speed”

Wow, that was fast! From Perth, Australia that’s Karnivool and “Shutter Speed”. I have a video of that tune I’m going to be featuring on a new video show coming up. The show is going to be called Hard Audio and it’s a video music podcast. It’s going to be kind of like The Scene Zine. Here’s my palate here, I liken The Scene Zine to not having a lot talk, being mostly in-your-face music, as that seems to be what everybody likes. On Hard Audio I think it is going to be more of my opinions about things and a little more swearing (laughs). So be on the lookout for that pretty soon. I think I’m going to launch that sometime in March. The domain is hardaudio.com and Hard Audio TV will be attached to that as well but there’s nothing up yet so don’t even try. All right, we are going to leave you here with a great band called Coping with Ignorance. This track is titled “Plastic Fixation”, which seems to be what we’re tied up in here in America. If you’ve gone to any stores lately, just go buy a pack of gum and they give you a gallon sized plastic bag with it. Not good for the environment at all. See this just the sort of thing I need to rant about on Hard Audio right here! Anyway, this is Coping with Ignorance and “Plastic Fixation”. My name is Marcus Couch, you been listening to The Scene Zine. Take care everybody!

Music: Coping with Ignorance - “Plastic Fixation”

For those of you that think this is a downer or a setback, think again. Radio is an old, tired model lost in a new media landscape. Which would you rather own.. Sirius or YouTube?

My audience is 99% podcast listeners, with hundreds of thousands of rock and metal fans spanning every continent. For those unaware of the process of getting the show on Sirius, it involved significantly lowering the quality of the audio in order to fit into their ancient technology platform. Editing, uploading, and notating 24 minute segments for Sirius added 40% more workload for that 1% of additional audience resulting from the work. Though it was a nice personal accomplishment, I’d much rather chalk this one up to experience and dedicate my resources to delivering fresher content to an exponentially growing podcast audience.

A telling sign for me was when I listened to an episode of Keith & The Girl where they were guests on the Jay Thomas show on Sirius. Jay didn’t have a CLUE as to what podcasting was, who Keith and the Girl were, or even the fact that Podshow podcasts were being featured daily on the same channel he was broadcasting on! To me, Jay Thomas is completely representative of traditional and satellite radio. Absolutely clueless as to the power of podcasting. Perhaps I should forward Jay some of the recent emails I have received from heavy metal fans in China, Australia, Brazil, Europe or South Africa. My guess is that neither Jay, nor his fellow Sirius dinosaurs have ever known the feeling of having a truly global audience like the one podcasting can bring. I love being a podcaster. I love introducing hard working independent artists to rabid fans of hard rock and metal. More and more you see traditional media trying to bail from their own media platforms and into podcasting. It’s all over the front of iTunes. Podcasting is where its at. Satellite radio is where it WAS.

Two guys that I really need to thank are P.W. Fenton and Brian Noe. They helped to make sure The Scene Zine kept pace every single weekend on Sirius. I very much enjoyed sharing the airwaves with fellow members of the Podshow Family.

Everyone at Podshow is great. They continually make my dreams come true. I enjoy being a Podshow success story and will continue doing so with every challenge and opportunity presented along the way.

Your loss Sirius. We loved you in your prime.

I was in line at STAPLES in Aliso Viejo, CA to buy a Compaq Presario V5303NR Notebook, which was advertised at $399.98. I arrived at 5:10am for a sale that began at 6am. When I found my place at the back of the line, there were already 40-50 people in front of me. A mere 20 minutes later, there were over 100 people in line behind me!

At 5:30am, a Staples employee emerged from the store, addressing the crowd that he would be walking down the length of the line to distribute coupons for the most popular sale items. He called out various items. People held up their hands. The employee found them and handed them a coupon for the item. Item after item was read off, but no laptop.

As I waited for the employee to walk back to where I was to inquire about the laptop, I witnessed something I’ve never seen before. At the front of the line were two Mexican men in their 30s. They were grabbing every coupon that was offered. Then, it happened. A white mother in her 40s and her teenage son got out of a black BMW 7 series, walked to the front of the line in place of the Mexicans, and the Mexicans handed their sale tickets to the woman and went back to their beat up car and drove off. THIS WOMAN HIRED THESE MEXICANS TO WAIT IN LINE!! Can you believe this? (Well, it IS Orange County!)

Just after this event (Now 5:35am), the Staples employee finally made his way back to me. I asked him, “Sir, I’m here for the Compaq Presario V5303NR Notebook that is on the front page of our ad. Do you have any tickets for that item remaining?”. “Let me check” he replied, where he did an about-face and marched into the store to see what was left. After a few minutes the guy returned to me in line and stated “Sorry, but that item is not available in our district”.

So in essence folks, Staples ran an ad for something NATION WIDE that isn’t even available. This item was on the FRONT PAGE of the Staples circular. False lead, false advertising. In other words, this was a LIE.

In line I overheard even more stories..

A woman behind me described the scene at COMP USA. Apparently Comp USA was open on Thanksgiving from 9pm-Midnight, yet their sale didn’t take effect until the 24th. This meant that people were loading up on items that scanned FULL PRICE at the register. When they complained that the price should have been the sale price, the employees then informed them, “Oh, those items don’t go on sale until tommorow!”, meaning COMP USA opened their stores with the false pretense of a sale.

Another man in line described an experience he had at a CIRCUIT CITY that was just up the road. Apparently some early bird shoppers were using shopping carts to block aisles in the store, and some even abandoned their carts some 10 feet inside the store entrance, so that other shoppers wouldn’t get ahead of them in the mad rush for merch.

I doubt I will ever do this again. It made me sick to watch all the blatant consumerist greed out there. Not to mention I went home with no laptop for my wife! Looks like after-Christmas sale hunting is on at my household!
