Are you ready for May 4. That’s this year date for Free Comic Book Day. Be sure to stop by your local comic shop, book dealer and even library that are supporting the Free Comic Book Day. Not every book store or library is participating so check with your local library and if this is a program you would like to see in your library let the librarian know so they can be ready for 2014. Check out the Thomas Jane video below in support of Free Comic Book Day.
R. Thomasin has released their self titled album for download here (http://rthomasin.bandcamp.com/album/r-thomasin). Below is one of the songs from the album “Laurels”. I do like their sound, but at times the instruments are to overpowering for me. The lead singers voice blends in with the instruments really well, I kind of think of her sound like Enya and how her voice blended in with the instruments.

The first time I listened to Color Collage’s “Can’t Stay Put’ I didn’t enjoy it. Maybe it was the mood I was in. However, today while listening to it I really enjoyed the song. Maybe it’s just one of those songs that has to grow on you or you have to be in the right mood for it. Either way don’t take my word for it listen to it below and see what you think.

For those that get BBC America (which sadly I don’t) have a new series starting March 30. The series is Orphan Black and just from viewing the trailer looks to feature a cloning storyline. This is one I will have to watch out for if it comes to SyFy network or when it hits DVD sales. Thanks to the BBC America TV YouTube channel for the trailer:
