Words and Pictures by Dave MacIntyre Illinois rockers Cheap Trick stormed the stage at Toronto’s Sound Academy Thursday night, putting to rest any doubts that there’s life after 50. The Rockford quartet—consisting of front man Robin Zander (lead vocals and guitar), Rick Nielsen (lead guitar and backing vocals), Tom Petersson (12 string bass and backing vocals) and Bun E. Carlos (drums)—put...

Audi has always raked up good stature in terms of ad placement and content. In the latest Superbowl 2010 Audi came up with the latest and most Hip concept of all “Go Green”. Audi green police – Audi’s New Mantra “Green Police” In the one-minute ad, ordinary citizens are arrested for using plastic instead of [...] Related posts: Audi Green Police Commercial: Interesting...
By Debbie Schlussel . . . Does Audi know this is what we fear . . . and that a “green car” isn’t the panacea? It’s part of the problem. Gotta love the tribute to Cheap Trick’s “Dream Police.” Watch more Green Police video here. And note that the green crowd loves this. That’s [...]
So how was did the super Sunday go? Don’t know about you but I had a blast! It was great to see the New Orleans Saints mark their first ever Super Bowl victory smashing the Indianapolis Colts by 31–17. And what a wonderful display of performance by Drew Brees! Absolutely amazing! The dude completed 32 [...] Related posts: Betty white commercial super bowl – Super Sunday, Super Bowl,...
The T3 Series Electric Stand-up Vehicle was featured in last night's Super Bowl XLIV broadcast. Four of T3's vehicles were featured in a 60-second commercial by Audi entitled "Green Police." The commercial main focus was to promote Audis' diesel wagon, the A3 TDI . Cheap Trick also rewrote the lyrics to their hit song, "Dream Police," for the soundtrack to the commercial which aired...
I miss the Super Bowl of old (re: before I can remember them) when brothers from another planet like Vince Lombardi (greatest line, ever: "Show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser"), Hank Stram, Bud Grant, and the immortal (read: dead for about a decade) Weeb Ewbank helmed squads of fat, non-muscled off-season insurance salesman to early onset arthritis for about $9,500 a year. Why...
The Superbowl was surprisingly exciting last night, although most of the ads were sort of lame and formulaic. Look elsewhere for analysis of the game. Although the very existence of a sports commentating and analysis industry proves that I’m wrong, as far as I know, it was just a football game. Yay [...]
By Noel Sheppard One of the reasons many people watch the Super Bowl is for the ads, and one that surely will be talked about at watercoolers Monday is Audi’s Green Police commercial. In it, ordinary citizens are arrested for using plastic instead of paper, throwing away batteries, not recycling orange rinds, possessing incandescent light bulbs, and [...]
First off, I don’t know what was more lame, the Tebow ad or that anyone got upset over it. There was supposed to be a stance on abortion in there? OK. (I couldn’t find a video to embed, but it is available at the Focus on the Family website. Was this ad a funny tweaking of [...]
{Widget type="youtube" id="ckAoPLBK9Gk"} Is it me or have this year's Super Bowl ads been pretty underwhelming thus far? There's about five and a half minutes to go in the game as I write this, so there's still time for a miracle, but so far? Eh. That much-hyped Google ad? Vaguely clever yet supremely boring (seriously, who wants to read an entire TV ad'). I kind of liked the VW...
My story today on changing out my incandescent recessed lighting for high efficiency LED units couldn’t have come too soon. I don’t have to worry now. This video below is one of the most talked about Superbowl commercials today. You have to watch it more than once to catch all the visual gags in it. Watch the [...]

Fourth Quarter: Vizio - :60 spot by Venables, Bell & Partners, SF directed by Wally Pfister and features Beyonce Knowles-Carter. Review: @caff ok, so this spot totally went off on the whole internet swip-age but, it makes sense for the brand (unlike other SB ads of the night).
