Awesome Solo: Guy Plays Guitar With His Mouth.
Who needs a guitar? Who needs a plastic fake guitar? Not this guy.
He takes air guitar to the next level by actually pushing some air through his lips and shredding.

Awesome Video: Tiffani Thiessen No Go For SBTB Reunion.
At this point, I think I've watched more about the Saved by the Bell reunion than actual Saved By the Bell episodes.

Awesome Prank: Bearsuit Guy Invades Web Chats.
People actually chat like this? Thank goodness for Bear Suit guy. He's a much needed antidote for the lameness that is video chats.

Awesome User Generated Video: Dayman, for Sunny Season 5.
Check out this sweet compilation of clips of fans singing "Dayman." Amidst the amateur talent (cute baby, college girls on keyboards) you'll be able to spot semi-famous indie stalwarts Ted Leo and Of Montreal.

Guns. Cups. Minesweeper. Reloading guns. Shooting guns. Making pizzas.
It's all here and it's all awesome -- except for the clapping guy. Not awesome. Sorry.

Awesome Juxtaposition: Nelly Plus Bat.
Found this on Fallon's blog, too. There should be rules about going back to the same blog well more than once but I'm making an exception.
Awesome Collabo: The Roots + Paul "Graceland" Simon.
"Late in the Evening" is one of the funkiest Paul Simon tunes. And actually I think Drake or Kid Cudi used "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" as the basis for a mix-tape track.
Geez. What's next? Is RZA going to use "Scarborough Fair" on the next Wu joint?

Mostly Awesome: Michael Jackson Flash Mob Tribute.
So, this whole viral dance mob thing? Well it's pretty much jumped the inter-shark at this point -- but I think it's okay to let one more out onto the stage of JOA.

Awesome Video: Lily Allen's Chinese Gets a Kid's Choir Makeover.
I always find it interesting that with MTV no longer playing music video, music videos are bigger than ever. In fact, YouTube is basically the new MTV in that sense.
This video is pretty cool and was apparently put together by the music teacher that actually discovered Lily Allen.
found on Buzzfeed.

Close-to-Awesome Trailer: Couples Retreat.
Favreau and Vaughn take another stab at recreating their Swingers chemistry. And this is probably a tiny bit funnier if you're married. Or have been married.
Thing I'm excited about: Adding Jason Bateman to the mix. He has one priceless moment in this trailer.
