    Sorry but Vampire Weekend did something fresh and new that no one had ever really done before, and they did it with talent and with honesty.


    There's no way you can make fun of that unless you're an absolute art miser and all around crabby crusty heart failure.

    @Pope John Peeps II: I'm ambivilant about their music, but something that's simply "fresh and new" and done "with talent and honesty" sets a pretty low bar.

    @TalbotSmith: Not really. How many times in a year do you really, genuinely hear something and think "wow. That sounds like nothing at all I've ever heard or read before".


    It's actually incredibly rare.

    Uh oh. I just realized (from watching that video) that I like Vampire Weekend. I did not want this to happen.

    Ugh, I live right near there but I feel like shit today and can't deal with Vampire fucking Weekend (80s Paul Simon and Bob Marley karaoke tribute band), no matter how much I like Talib Kweli.

    Plus, there's a smelly street fair between my block and Columbia right now. It's officially summer.

    I would totally go to this Vampire thing, but I've already committed to attending the opening of a new mall in Meadville PA that will be hosted by Jaleel White (a.k.a Steve Urkle).

    Making fun of Vampire Weekend is more hipster than liking Vampire Weekend.

    @Amarain824: Oh, I have no doubt that they'd be located in NW somewhere. Never NE and if the put them in SE, it'd be the Capital Hill part, not Anacostia. Though I may just watch the show if did and started hanging out at bars like Tune Inn and Phase 1.

    @WashingMyHair: the RW house will either be on 18th Street in A-M, U Street (maybe -- but probably much too hip), Capitol Hill (which won't be cool at all but will scream "Washington"), or -- brace -- Georgetown somewhere, where at least we can corral the Real Worlders together with the Northern Virginians.

    I was just in DC last weekend -- while there may be a bit of "buzz" around DC since Obama's arrival, I'm sad to report that the city is actually as boring and depressing as ever.

    Um, in one episode could the more annoying of the bunch take a merry jaunt on over to B-more (about 45 min away) and have a fateful, if not fitting, discussion about life, love, and the way of the gun with all surviving members of The Wire? That would kinda make my millennia. Sucks Bodie, Snoop, Omar, and Stringer Bell are all dead. I'd like pay to see that, though. Damn! That was a good show.

    @Spirit Fingers: you know they've got an ad campaign with billboards all over town stating 'believe in baltmore? they should change it to something more realistic, like "BALTIMORE - NOW MISERY HAS A NEW PLAYGROUND"


    probably they'd just party with the kids at MICA... one of them could wander off while tripping on shrooms, and have a looong conversation about whatevs with the hookers of the skinned knees who hang by the hamden rite-aid, center of all misery in the western world. oh, wouldn't THAT be a joy to watch.
