Nissan Yahoo Live Sessions, Jimmy Kimmel Live and the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas...

So it's been a busy week...and alot of fun.

First off on Wednesday, we did the fourth installment of the Nissan Live Sessions on Yahoo Music. A joint venture between Nissan and Yahoo, which tapes at the 20th Century Fox Studios in Century City. Very cool. It was my second time on that lot and I really love it...I need to get another movie gig soon so I can work on the lot again. That live session will air sometime in January...I'll keep you posted.

Then on Thursday, we did Jimmy Kimmel Live. Now, the funny part is that we are not airing until December 14th...this coming Thursday...so set your VCR's or Tivo's. It was a fun day...and I met the guy from Borat who is his producer...if you've seen the movie you know who i am talking about...He introduced himself to me and I said something like..."Um....I've seen your balls..."

So...then Sunday night we did the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas at the Gibson Auditorium at Universal Studios. Wow....what a show...lot's of celebrities...Dr. Drew from Loveline, Lindsay Lohan, The White Stripes, Blink-182, Foo Fighters, the Killers, Evanescence and others. The show was packed, and we did a short set...13 songs...but it was a great one...full of energy and really so much fun.

A nice way to spend a week, to be sure.


Also...I got interviewed for an online paper! You can read it all here: www.keetologue.com

Anywho...that is about it in regards to puppet stuff for now...

I had an interview today with a dog-adoption agency...met Farley...a 2 year old boxer/american bulldog mix...very cute...a bit defiant but that'll pass once he's in a safe and permanant home...well...mabey...

so anyway...i'm considering a dog...we shall see.


that's all for now...

well, it's been a while...

how time has flown.

let me play catch up with y'all, as i have neglected my blogging duties for far too long....


after we ended our tour playing saturday night live, i spent a few extra days in new york seeing friends and having a lovely time. then i took the train north to boston, and from there got a ride up to new hampshire to visit my folks for 10 days. it was pretty great. halloween was awesome, with my little brothers (my mom remarried and had twins, so i have seven year old twin bros) and it was great to be home and chill out for a bit.

well...after that fun i headed back home to los angeles...and it's been nice to be home. i have been working hard with several people to develop new projects, and it's now clear i have to start my own company if i want any of these things to happen.

it's a big step for me, as i've always been one of those guys who enjoys the ride, but not necessarily the business side of what i do...this would put me up front for sure...making a director and producer out of me...which i don't think would be a bad thing.

we shall see. i think 2007 is going to be a very life-altering year. i know that 2006 has been pretty incredible, with both good and bad changes.

i'm seriously considering getting a dog...never been a dog owner, so i have no idea how i'll do with it, but i think i am ready for it. i am considering adopting 1 or 2 year old...i don't know if i have the time or energy for a puppy. a slightly older dog already has his personality already established, so i could get a sense of who he is before i begin the adoption process....

something i am thinkin about anyway...


ok...now for the news you've been waiting for....the beck tour.

beck has asked the puppeteers to appear with him on three dates this coming week. on wednesday, december 6th we will be doing a taping for Yahoo....a special recorded session for Yahoo...i don't really have more details on that at this time...

we will be on Jimmy Kimmel Live on thursday night, so set your tivo's! yes this thursday night, the 7th of december.

and then sunday we will be doing a show at the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas in Los Angeles.

so if you are in LA come check us out on sunday night!!!


after that we are once again done...they have not mentioned the puppets for anything else, but you never know!



so, i am sorry i have been out of touch with this blog, but as all of these wonderful things start to get going in the coming months, i am sure i'll have plenty more to share with you!

best to you all.

October 28th....SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE.

SO...it's true...

Beck is doing Saturday Night Live this coming Saturday the 28th, and the Beck Puppets are making what may be their final public appearance on SNL.

Hell of a way to go...

We will not be doing Letterman, as per the rules of SNL...which is sad...but I'll still take it!

We had rehearsals yesterday, it was amazing fun to stand on the SNL set and see how it works...to be a part of something that i have long dreamt of....it's pretty crazy to know that i can now live my life saying that i have performed on saturday night live....

anywho...tomorrow night....watch it...love it...tape it....whatever you have to do...just do it.

best to yall.
