The 2010 World Cup is well underway and emotions are running high – and it’s not just to do with the football! The latest entertainment industry skandaal to circulate the internet and the airwaves is the case of SA band, The Parlotones. Their patriotism and levels of commercialism were questioned in a twitter/comment record-breaking article […]
Today brought a multi-coloured shit-storm in the form of an article written on 2oceansvibe to do with the possibly confusing music video made by SA band The Parlotones. We suggested the band had gone too far in aligning themselves with another country, what with the song name being “Come Back As Heroes,” and the video […]
Product endorsements and commercialisation aside; aligning yourself with another nation and singing for their victory in a tournament which is being held on your home soil (a tournament in which your own country is competing), may well be the final straw for Parlotones fans. “Aligning” might be a bit tame. By the looks of their […]
Apart from electrifying conversation, world-class programming and phone-ins from the likes of Ard Matthews and Cokey Falkow (plus a ton of listeners calling in and winning prizes from Havaianas and Sunglass Hut), we also played some killer tunes. Check check check it out.. PLAYLIST Kiss Me – Indecent Obsession Armada Latina – Cypress Hill Red […]
And there you were thinking it would be something to do with the 2010 World Cup! Hah! No no, my friend. we need to pause that vibe and make way for one of the funnier pics I received today in and amongst the BARRAGE of crap that you sed me. THIS, is a prime example […]

John Smit receives word that he will be on 2oceansvibe Radio Besides Friday being the first […]
I sent the incredibly awesome “Drummer Guy” video to Dom (The Blonde) and Dave (Baby Jesus) of Goldfish fame, before I put it up on 2oceansvibe the other day. I emailed it to them with the subject, “a gift for you – thank me later.” They responded that it was, indeed, genius. So today, Dom […]
It’s been a while since we all had a crush on TV character Winnie Cooper (real name Danica McKellar) from the hit TV show “The Wonder Years,” which ran in the late 80’s, early 90’s. Well she went on and became a mathematician (no spice) and then finally did then right thing and came back […]
As we reflect on the life of one of the Hollywood greats, Dennis Hopper, we observe a post-production video taken from his film The American Dreamer, circa 1971. Here we see Dennis Hopper quietly organising an orgy. The video is on YouTube so it is not overly graphic. Although I cannot comment for the drug […]
As most of you will know, I have a US iTunes account. So imagine my excitement when I was cruising around the iTunes Store the other day and saw this: What’s that at Number 7? GOLDFISH – FORT KNOX I know… PLUTZ! I immediately bought the song, even though I already had it. I just […]
Besides being at the age where his main desire should be trying to play online bingo for free, KISS bassist and all round grand daddy of rock, Gene Simmons, was recently accused of dry-humping an ESPN make-up artist, as some of you may have heard. After said make-up artist demanded $185 000 from Gene for […]
John F Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe We found a webpage out there with a whole stack of rare celebrity photographs, including the one above, showin JFK and Marilyn snuggling together in the floor. As they do. Here another awesome pic – this time of Sean Connery holding Brigitte Bardot in a head lock!
You know when you’re watching a movie and you see this guy? Bob Gunton is “That Guy” (awesome fist action, by the way) That’s when my ex-digs mate, Mark Pfuhl (The Fabrics Guy), would say to me, “Hey Seth, there’s that guy again!” And then I would say to Mark, “Yes Mark, his name is […]
We’ve kept a close eye on Microsoft co-founder, Paul Allen’s two main yachts over the years – both of which have spent time in Cape Town. The first one I ever saw, cruised into Cape Town late August, 2007 (see original article here). It was a good one to see first, as it was, at […]
With the Cannes Film Festival carrying on just down the road from where I am, I thought I would give you some images from the days when people were infinitely cooler than we will ever be. I got these from the LIFE website – check it out: Bardot on the Beach French actress Brigitte Bardot […]
Those of you who caught Jack Parow on 2oceansvibe Radio the other day would have heard some leaked tracks from his new CD. You will therefore be well aware of how radical and awesome it is. Well check it out, the official Jack Parow album launch will be happening on Monday, 10 May at the […]
Yeah, thanks for asking. Look, I’ll be honest, things are going pretty well. I basically made the first move with the “piece” I wrote the other day about SkyNews anchor, Mark Longhurst, and the terribly awkward crush he has on SkyNews presenter, Charlotte Hawkins. You can read up on that here. Naturally the story was […]
That’s correct, the podcast from this morning’s 2oceansvibe Radio show with Jack Parow, is LIVE on the instanet! Jack Parow – by jou moeder se huisie. Follow the link to get access to the podcast in jou moeder se huisie. And yes, it was hilarious. We chatted about everything from Joost van der Westhuizen and […]
It’s always a pleasure to see 2oceansvibe Weather Girls killing-it on the instanet. Take Lyndall Jarvis, for example, who joined Julz for the debut “On The Couch” episode for Car Magazine’s website. “CARtv’s Juliet McGuire chats to her friend Lyndall Jarvis, who was voted FHM’s Sexiest Woman in the World, about her motoring adventures, what […]
Well it really is all the rage now, isn’t it? Models without Photoshop and now models without makeup. In five years from now the big brands will be bowing down again to further pressure and will be using the ugliest girls they can find. You know, to show how “real” they are. Not that I […]
We’ve covered the Swedish royals on the pages of 2oceansvibe before. You will recall the heartwarming story of Princess Victoria who took a shining to her fitness trainer and went on to marry him. Not exactly what King Carl and Queen Silvia had in mind, but hey, you can teach him to use a knife […]
Yes, that’s right, my lover – Goldfish are playing at Moyo at Spier in Stellenbosch on Monday night (Tuesday is a holiday). Those of you who tuned in to the first 2oceansvibe Radio Show (podcast available here) will know that Dave from Goldfish was our guest on the show (with a sick Dom joining briefly […]
That’s right my fine feathered friends! It’ll be two shows at The Assembly, Harrington Street, Cape Town. Since being back in SA, Just Jinjer have performed at major festivals, corporate shows and at a jam packed Kirstenbosch Gardens. In April, they will be back in the mother city to set the Cape Town nightlife alight […]
I’ll be honest, I do feel slightly bad that I refused the advancements of young Minki van der Westhuizen, a few weeks back – when she was tweeting about being a Weather Girl etc. Had I known she would have been resorting to this kind of behaviour, I certainly would have made an exception and […]
If you’re one of the people that made up 20,000 views of our last Weather Girls show with Landi Swanepoel, you’ll appreciate this. If you didn’t watch that video, you’re making a grave mistake – because you will more than likely fall off your chair – for a variety of reasons. Not least of which […]
20 days ago we got hold of a group shot of a number of South Africa’s top comedian (here) and we asked you if anyone knew what it was about. The comments under the article identified names of comedians in the picture, including Barry Hilton, Nik Rabinowitz, Marc Lottering, John Vlismas, Loyiso Gola, Mark Banks, […]
It’s quite fortunate that one doesn’t have to think too clearly when dealing with photographs, because my head is not in the correct space to entertain thought. For example these pics. You don’t have to THINK too much to decipher the fact that the angels at The Vibe party were smoking hot and the party […]
God, how emboerrissing! “Pistol” Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi ended up at each other’s throats during a Haiti charity event in California this weekend. 16,000 people turned up to support the action, which included a doubles match with Pete Sampras and Roger Federer on one side, and Andre Agassi and Rafael Nadal on the other. […]
I was leaving my Saturday morning session with Bob Skinstad at KFM, when I noticed a truck offloading some goods. The side of the truck had a man and a woman advertising a brand of mattress. They were in a state of undress and it was very clear that this couple were on the verge […]
I’ll be hanging with Bob Skinstad (also known as The Character Formerly Known As The Loose Forward) during his 8am-9am Saturday morning slot on KFM (94.5fm). That’s tomorrow morning, for those of you who are still slightly sleepy. We go way back, Bob and I, and the banter is bound to get you going as […]
