Monday Quick-Links

• Watch the fourth installment in the "You Suck at Photoshop" series, in which Donnie (rumored to be Dane Cook, which would make this the funniest thing he's ever done) adds a background to his wedding ring (ring_of_infinite_sorrows.jpg) in order to sell it on eBay:



And yes, the ring is really up for bid on eBay no longer up on eBay (it did manage to fetch bids of over $700 before being pulled though). Watch episode 1, episode 2, and episode 3.

Daytrotter hosts casual recording sessions with bands, typically indie rock, passing through their area and then offers free mp3 downloads of the sessions.

• Deciblog's "Top 5 Most Inappropriate Things We Witnessed at the Neurosis/Mastodon show in Brooklyn Last Night."

And in the spirit of drilling/scraping/sawing holes in skulls, here are a few tracks:
