Pancake Mountain

Attention parents of children who like to hop around to good music: Want to spend a fun hour or so with your kiddie and the computer? Well then, fire up the old Dell, close your depressing Quicken screen and check out the fun-packed Pancake Mountain website.

It’s “cleverly disguised as a children’s TV show” that makes fun of our absurd culture, features an awesome puppet (Rufus Leeking) and rocks out with outstanding musical guests who play live while a bunch of cute kids and adults bop around. Musical guests have included: Tegan and Sara, Arcade Fire, Anti-Flag, Ted Leo, Craig Wedren, X, The Evens (Ian MacKaye), Fiery Furnaces, Wolfmother and many many more! Please note: You do not have to have a child to enjoy.

    Hey, two of those kids in the Jenny Lewis video belong to my friend Sheryl! The little boy in the white shirt whose face is frozen when it’s paused & his older sister in the pink shirt. Small world, man, small world.
