EOTO Lotus Stage by Zebbler
While we don't normally condone the use of dubstep, we've got to give it up to EOTO for their gorgeous stage on their spring tour. We know EOTO because they're made of String Cheese Incident members Michael Travis and Jason Hann. What makes EOTO special is that they are 100% improvised, no set lists, no tracks, just 2 dudes jamming on every instrument possible to create a unique electronic sound. We have to give it up to them for doing something different in the realm of 'bass music.' As far as that genre is concerned, no one can top EOTO's creativity.
To see part 2 of the video mapping of the lotus stage and lots more footage of the stage in action, click here.
Now here is where it gets interesting...Zebbler, their stage designer, looked so familiar to us when we first saw this video. We figured we had probably seen him around at shows or festivals, then we found this video. Zebbler is part of the team who created Aqua Teen Hunger Force electric boards that caused the city of Boston to close down for a day due to the fear that the boxes were a bomb. Crazy, right?
If you want to get your rage on to the lotus stage, click here to see when EOTO will be in a town near you.

“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are.
You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an
act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.
There can’t be any large-scale revolution until there’s a personal
revolution, on an individual level. It’s got to happen inside first.”
-Jim Morrison
Neem Spray
image from ag.arizona.edu
Trying to get rid of pesky bugs in your garden naturally?
Who wants to use harsh chemicals on veggies knowing that they will be eating them in the near future? NOT US! We've tried a lot of different organic pesticides to keep these pesky little buggies out of our garden, but they never work and sometimes even damage our plants (sorry Thai hot pepper, RIP.)
Not to worry, we have found our saving grace in the form of neem oil. Neem oil is pressed from the seeds of the neem, which is a type of evergreen native to India, and is perfectly safe for organic gardening.
Potency of your spray can vary on how persistent your bugs are, but we would suggest about a teaspoon of oil to a quart of water to get started. Combine the ingredients in a spray bottle and spray directly onto the leaves of the plant, followed by wiping off the bugs with cloth. Just remember to shake up your bottle every time you spray because the oil and water will separate. Bye Bye spider mites!
The only thing we have noticed that neem isn't taking care of is ants. At the moment we are urban gardening, so everything is in pots on cement. To get rid of the ants all we did was soak a q-tip in 100% pure tea tree oil and run it along the rim of the pots and voila, no more ants!
Repeat treatment once a week or more if necessary.
Hippie gardening y'all!

Rusted Root
Okay, we realize that this video came out in 1996 and it's nothing new...but to this day we get the urge to run around in a field of flowers and play bongos every single time we hear it. Nothing can put a smile on our face faster than this video. They're having so much fun, it's contagious.
Why doesn't anyone ever cover this? Who do YOU think would do a good cover of this Rusted Root classic?
