One local kid band brought their whole community together with their incredible cover of a favorite 1990s classic. These talented children really rocked out while playing “Zombie” by The Cranberries. Judging by the rapt attention they received from their audience, the song seems to have gone over pretty well. Now that they’ve posted a video of their performance to social media, these musicians have amassed quite a few fans online! This impressive kid band is called The Basement, and you can follow them on X. According to their bio, these four musicians are from Omaha, Nebraska. They’ve been together for less than a year, but you’d never be able to tell based on their playing. It sounds like they’ve been jamming together for ages! Thanks @DudespostingWs ! We like to think so too! And here is some more of our cover of Zombie, by @The_Cranberries https://t.co/Jp4XwUICwM pic.twitter.com/qSyQUXRrgO— The Basement (we're a band) (@thebasement402) May 28, 2024 Commenters loved seeing this neighborhood come together to support this amazing kid band. It’s safe to say that these young musicians really killed it with their rendition of “Zombie” by The Cranberries. “I wish I had their number while planning my 6 year old’s bday party,” joked one user. “I’d be the ‘cool mom’ for sure. Every preschooler remembers their first moshpit.” “Shout out to young rock bands, we need more like The Basement to keep rock alive!” another added. These kids are rocking out to all the old hits! Screengrab from X In another video on YouTube, The Basement shared footage of a live peformance at an actual venue!

Songs included “Blitzkrieg Bop” by The Ramones, “All the Small Things” by Blink-182, and, of course, “Zombie” by The Cranberries! Once again, commenters were dazzled by these fantastic musicians! Some adults were especially thrilled to see these children performing the songs they grew up with. This kid band really knows their music history! “Amazing seeing young people of today playing the music from my youth,” one user said. “Amazing covers guys.

Costco, which ranks among the three largest retailers in the US (and globally), is joining the club of big corporations with access to massive amounts of customer data, who are launching various schemes to monetize that data. Costco’s plan, still in the testing phase, is to develop a way to target ads at customers both on its website and in stores. The numbers are staggering and draw from the retailer’s loyalty program: the shopping behavior of people in 75.5 million households. And – a membership card is a requirement for anyone shopping at Costco. The promise of access to shopping habits inevitably includes past purchases and the corporation’s Assistant Vice President of Retail Media Mark Williamson also promised future partners that they will be able to not only target ads (“reach”) members of the Costco loyalty program, but also, “reach the right members in the right context based on past behavior.” Costco’s effort to keep up with the trends in both retail and ad industries is evident in the fact that Williamson’s job was only created last September. The race to start using customer data for advertising is rapidly spreading beyond Big Tech and to the likes of Walmart, and Target, but also mega banks, financial institutions, and hotel chains. Some observers believe these new players in the market have realized they can fill some gaps in the lucrative business created by regulatory efforts, which aim to protect personal data in those places where it has traditionally been harvested and monetized until now – on Big Tech platforms and services. Playing up the benefit that creating the ad network will supposedly have for customers, Williamson is quoted as saying that the huge profit the giant looks likely to generate in this way will be “reinvested to keeping prices low.” What is certain to have a low price tag attached to it is the cost of retailers like Costco getting into the advertising business. It’s cheap to run ads, and customers will keep returning whether the ads are there or not, reports note.
