OMG there's a Ghostbusters Pachinko Machine!

I. Must. Play! Ghostbuster Hadokens? Hells yes! There is so much going on with this machine, it's insane...from the super cute cartoon versions of the busters (notice no Winston :-p), to the crazy flashing lights on the machine. Check out the official webpage for more info.

Yoshida Brothers

If you've seen the Nintendo Wii commercials then you've heard the Japanese band, the Yoshida Brothers. The duo uses the ancient Japanese guitar called the shamisen and combines old school with new school. It's a really sweet mix. If you like groups such as Kodo, then you'll love these guys.

"Rising":


"Nikata (Renaissance)":


Monkey Majik ft. the Yoshida Brothers - "Change"
