Rumor has it that Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder sang “I’ve Got You Babe”, “Where the Streets Have no Name”, and “Yellow Submarine” at the Mesa Dobson Ranch Inn the other night. Here’s the video!

Editorial note: The You Tube video was taken down by the submitter. So another offering that will no doubt date myself….here’s J. Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.) and David Cross playing against each other in Guitar Hero.

The East Valley Tribune has profiled some of the more eclectic Valley museums in today’s Saturday paper.

My favorite museum in the metro area is the Arizona Wing CAF Aircraft museum. About six years ago I stopped in the museum on a Saturday afternoon on my way to the office to catch up on some work.

After about an hour I gave up on work and spent the rest of the day walking the museum with the enthusiastic docent. If you have any interest in aircraft or U.S. military history I’d highly recommend the AZ CAF museum.
