Video - A day in the life of Eric Coomer

Nick Waugh, bassist from my band KNAPSACKHEROES!, is a great friend and it turns out he's a great videographer as well. Check out this video he shot of me over the course of a few hours in downtown Nashville. The soundtrack is of me playing ambient electric guitar, which was challenging because I had broken my volume pedal the night before. I think this turned out great.

U2's "Magnificent" Video

Here's the video for the best praise and worship song of the year.

Oh! So, that's why no one's sung that song this season...

I don't know why I haven't blogged more about American Idol this season.

On the whole, this season's contestants pick crap songs just about every week. I mean, come on...they could pick anything from any movie and they do not one but TWO Bryan Adams songs? Seriously? No "Somewhere" from West Side Story? No "When You Wish Upon a Star" from Pinocchio? How about "As Time Goes By" or "Rainbow Connection"? Nope.

But I digress...

Just about every week I tell my wife, Daphne, what song I would've sung if I were on American Idol that week. She's the only one who would care and I don't really know if she does care.

A few weeks ago during the "anything that's popular on iTunes" episode, I think I would have sung "Taking Chances" by Celine Dion. I seriously think it's one of the best radio songs of the past several years. I thought it would have been really cool if one of the guys--Danny maybe--sang it. I like to think no one did it because (AI judge) Kara DioGuardi wrote it with Dave Stewart.

Check this video out. If you want to hear it done really well, go look for Celine's version on YouTube but Kara is actually a really good singer. I still want her to stop talking every time she opens her mouth on the show...even if her words are more helpful than just about anything Paula has said in eight seasons. There's just something about her that annoys the crap out of me but I'd still kill to write a song with her.



P.S. You think Dave Stewart might have traveled to Paris, TN a few years ago and stolen my guitar? Looks just like the one that was stolen from me there.

So, who do you think will be in the final two? Who do you think will win?

New KNAPSACKHEROES! Video

Have I mentioned my father is a Kentucky Colonel?

Yep. So was my grandfather. Here's a trailer for a movie about another one.

Jimmy Kimmel has the most random stuff on his show. Maybe that's why I like him... That and that Conan has been in re-runs a lot lately.

Check out this video.
