Top 5 Tuesday XXXXV

This one is more for you guys than for me, but if you can help me out and return a couple links that you might know of it would be appreciated. Having said that, my current favourite blogs to check out, or to try and find for that matter, are blogs kept by musicians or actors. I've heard about the super-popular ones, like Will Wheaton, which was one of the first, and of course the Fred Durst one, which doesn't really interest me to be honest. Listed below are my current 5 reads, sometimes daily, sometimes weekly or longer. They all seem to have something to say, and with #'s 1 & 2, actually update them every couple of days, which is sweet. Take a look, let me know what you think, and if you come across any others hit me back here!

Top 5 Current "Famous" Blogs
  1. Mike Doughty. I had the first Soul Coughing cd playing the other day, and decided to find out what their singer was up to these days, as i enjoyed the groove of the Coughing quite immensely. Turns out he has just put out a new solo record, and his first with a full band since the last SC record. He also keeps a blog, which is quite interesting, and entries usually include a photo from his apparently always-present digital cam.
  2. Dave Navarro. Dave's blog is updated almost daily, which is really cool that he takes the time to do so. It's a nice easy read, and the topics usually pertain to something you'd find interesting and current. Keep an eye out here as the INXS reality show starts to air. Dave hosts the show and will probably have some insider entries here, i'm guessing, as the show progresses. And perhaps the occasional juicy Carmen bit as well. :)
  3. David Byrne. Dave actually won some awards for his entries here! Very well spoken, as you'd expect, and kept in a journal-style format - ie: more like a diary of what he's currently up to, as opposed to random daily entries. Dig.
  4. Jeff Bridges. Not so much a blog, as a monthly update on what movies he's been working on and what causes he is supporting. It's in a very cool handwritten style, and very casual, as only you'd expect from the man who played The Dude. Mark it.
  5. C.C. Banana. I'm really not sure what's going on here, but it's a dude in a banana suit that seems to have some sweet connections into the LA rock scene. Inspired by the one and only CC DeVille, this crazy cat is worth keeping an eye on.

Honourable Mention - Steve Earle. Steve's blog seems like it would be a great read, except he hasn't posted since March! Keep an eye out for when he breaks out of dormancy.

it appears that i've overestimated the sophistication level of my readers by assuming you actually search out other quality web content besides porn! but if you clicked on one of those links then my work this week is done.
