This is a rare clip from the 1984 Bay Area Dance Party tv show that used to air on TV20 back in the day.The school featured is none other than Hogan High in Vallejo.Check out the dude near the end performing "Radioactive".Sources say that it is I, your LostHighway9 host,Cassius.I must say that this is yet another imposter...and not me.Also,look for Lost associate Black Ken at the 2:15 mark.

Here is a great scene from 1987s "Barfly" starring Mickey Rourke.The movie is loosely based on the life of poet Charles Bukowski,and his drunken exploits through life and art.

This is where the site gets its namesake.Directed by the master David Lynch...enjoy the demon Robert Blake as he gets the best of Bill Pullman in "Lost HighWay".

Ken Ski and T Ross are members of the LostHighway9 crew....here they are with "Let Em Know".

Oakland,Ca. 1987.

Tonight we bring you a Double Shot from the Hip Hop Icon Rakim.

Double Shot from The R.Part 2.

Super cool song by Tears For Fears before they became famous.I used to listen to this on The Quake 105.3 back when I was a sophomore in high school.

You walked into the room, I just had to laugh
The face you wore was cool, you were a photograph
When it's all too late, it's all too late
I did not have the time, I did not have the nerve
To ask you how you feel, is this what you deserve
When it's all too late, it's all too late

Change, you can change…Change, you can change…

And something on your mind became a point of view
I lost your honesty, you lost the life in you
When it's all too late, it's all too late
We walk and talk in time, I walk and talk in two
Where does the end of me become the start of you
When it's all too late, it's all too late

Change, you can change…Change, you can change…

What has happened to the friend that I once knew, has he gone away?
When it's all too late, it's all too late

Change…Change, you can change…Change, you can change…
Change, you can change…Change, you can change…
Change, you can change…Change, you can change…

What do people do for money? They Watch This!!!

I cant believe it.The 80s pop group Scritti Politti has recorded new music with of all people...Mos Def.WTF????I used to make fun of an old girlfriend Liz Torres,because she had a cassette tape by this band back in 1988.LOL!!

"Dirty Cash" from Stevie V. 1990...killer track.This reminds me of these twin sisters I knew back then who would always meet me at Club DV8.

Watch how David Lynch builds the tension to a boiling point in this scene from "Mulholland Drive".

Heres another great little Flash game.How many nights can you survive????

One of my favorite directors...Dario Argento..this is from his film "Inferno".Enjoy the work of a master of giallo( italian suspense) film.His use of color and sound are unsurpassed in the genre.

Our amazing LostHighway9 time machine has captured this remarkable footage of the July,1981 Rick James concert in Long Beach, California.Look for a special guest star around the halfway mark....

A stranger has posted his image to our servers...quickly..I discovered who he was!LaVey was born in Chicago, Illinois, to Gertrude Augusta Coulton and Michael Joseph Levey, a liquor distributor from Omaha, Nebraska.^[3] His family soon relocated to California where he spent most of his early life in the San Francisco Bay Area and later in Globe, Arizona. According to his biography, his ancestry can be traced to French, Alsatian, German, Russian, and Romanian stock.^[4] His parents supported the development of his musical abilities as he tried his hand at various instruments, his favorite being ....

Our LostHighway9 editor from Thailand intercepted this video from our orbiting station...WTF???
Thanks to editor John Jinata.

The recent tragedy at Virginia Tech has concerned the LostHighway9 this past week.My intensive research into the matter leads me to believe if Cho could have gotten laid once in a while, we would have 33 people still alive today.However, dating on college campus appears to be very tricky,especially for a guy like him.
The video here is very funny...but has a real underlying message.Watch for the 13:49 mark in the clip for the tables being turned....

The Magic Negro!

The magical negro is typically "in some way outwardly or inwardly disabled, either by discrimination, disability or social constraint," often a janitor or prisoner.^[5] He has no past; he simply appears one day to help the white protagonist.^[6] He is the black stereotype, "prone to criminality and laziness."^[7] To counterbalance this, he has some sort of magical power, "rather vaguely defined but not the sort of thing one typically encounters."^[6] They are patient and wise, often dispensing various words of wisdom, and are "closer to the earth."^[3]

The magical negro serves as a plot device to help the protagonist get out of trouble, typically through helping the white character recognize his own faults and overcome them.^[3] In this way, the magical negro is similar to the Deus ex machina; a simple way for the protagonist to overcome an obstacle almost entirely through outside help. Although he has magical powers, his "magic is ostensibly directed toward helping and enlightening a white male character."^[5] It is this feature of the magical negro that some people find most troubling. Although the character seems to be showing African-Americans in a positive light, he is still ultimately subordinate to whites. He is also regarded as an exception, allowing white America to "like individual black people but not black culture."^[8]

To save the white protagonist, however, he would do anything, including sacrificing himself, as Sidney Poitier did in The Defiant Ones, the prototypical magical negro movie.^[3]

Oh, Man...I went all the way to Japan Town in the City(begged mom and dad) to get the action figure of this dude back in 1977.I found the huge 2 foot version, and promised to mow the lawn and pull weeds for a month just to have it.
A great show from the early days of anime.

My favorite TV show of all time.

Well...heres the news...Edward Norton has been cast as Bruce Banner in the next Hulk movie set to shoot this summer.....

Punk Rock Dance Funk....Ladies and Gentlemen...The Rapture.

The Clash bring the funk.One of the all time great basslines here.

This is a fucking classic from The Smiths.I remember first hearing it at a club back in the 80s.This song opened my ears to a whole new sound,and remains a favorite today.Johnny Marrs guitar work here is great.

The above link will take you over to The Hollywood Saloon, where they have compiled a great collection of the all time car chases from the movies...check it out....

Don't!

In the immortal words of Donald Trump..."You're Fired!!!!"Good riddance ass.

Awesome imagery and commentary in this video by Faithless.The track is only so-so,but the direction is genius as it shows the juxtapostion of everyday western life and culture vs the ongoing horrors of war.

I forgot how good the 1990 version of "Night Of The Living Dead" was, until i saw it again the other night...."They're coming to get you,Barbara"....

News Flash!!! First pic of the original gray armor from the upcoming"Iron Man" motion picture starring Robert Downey Jr. This is the suit Stark builds while being held prisoner in Afghanistan.
Looks tight!

Looks like after all the hype..Grindhouse has flopped.We already have studio honcho Harvey Weinstein talking about splitting the movie into two and rereleasing it.He also says that they didnt "educate" the south on the movie..and that audiences were yelling that something was wrong with the screen.( Too dumb to realize that these were intentional effects made to look the film look like it was from old film stock.)
The fact that it came in third after "Are We Home Yet?" and "Blades Of Glory" does not bode well for the sophistication of the American audience.....

Rob Zombie impressed me with "The Devils Rejects". Can he tackle this all time classic? I guess we have to wait until August to find out....

Courtesy of Black Ken comes the the lovely Andrea Rincon..viva las boriquas!!

Whats that you say? Its Saturday night,and you want action? Well starting tonight our top film experts are going to bring the Lost Highway9 viewers the very best action scenes ever put to celluloid.Tune in every week for a slam bang bonanza of thrills.

I thought Russia was cool...seems they have the same problems....

Nice cover to the new Rolling Stone.

P.J. Harvey simply rocks. "Down By The Water" is one of my favorite songs by her."Little fish, big fish swimming in the water, come back here and give me my daughter.." Kind of reminds me of this....(click here).

You know..If you want to see what happens to white chicks who are into gang signs, check out "Havoc" starring Anne Hathaway...its a pretty cool movie.Click on the movie title to watch the trailer...
