    I don't know what she's complaining about, who ever heard of them until Gawker starting covering them? They owe Gawker. MisShapes, Cory Kennedy, that Mouthbreather dude, they should all be kickin' a little upstairs to Uncle Nickie.

    All the boyish anxiety attendant to approaching the belle of the ball really came through in the piece, and you did a great job of putting Leigh on a funky pedestal made of dried bones. Fun!

    Everyone I know who knows this girl remarks on how nice and normal she is. And it's hard for me understand how anyone who anyone who lists "blogger" as their occupation can make fun of her career. Not that that's happening in this particular piece (at least not overtly) but it most definitely has on this site in the past.

    @StonedAndDethroned: Sure they may be nice and normal and sweet. I'm positive they are. But when you get successful for appealing to a certain crowd in a certain way, then you also get made fun of if you're making fun of that crowd. MisShapes became emblematic of a certain thing, so were the targets of funitude.

    Can't we all just agree night club DJ's aren't celebrities? Then these types of interviews won't be necessary.

    @flossy: Seconded! Or fourthed, I suppose, at this point. Take away that Twitter nonsense and revive BSL. (I abbreviated it because I am cool and very busy.)

    (But never too cool or busy for parenthetical asides.)

    Also, I heard about "Breakfast" months ago. I assume, then, that it must have been sooo ovah long before then.

    i wonder if sky parrot remembers the episode of "the a-team" with boy george. boy wins over a bar full of rather unsavory and bigoted rednecks with his rockin' tunes.

    25 years later boy has to pick up trash and as he is publicly mocked you get the feeling that everyone knew how the whole thing would go from the very start but enough of us were satisfied with the various vignettes that nobody issued boy a warning or spoke truth to his power.

    what i am saying is - princess cold and sky parrot - you have the power to win over poorly written rednecks in a primetime tv bar. this power makes the world seem very beautiful but the truth is harsh and must be earned. try to cheat it and you'll have to pick up trash.

    Leigh, as many of you know, is the Queen of the MisShapes, which for several years has been New York's most in-demand deejay trio.

    What a quaint encapsulation of pre-financiapocalypse New York.

    My, how I long for those plasticene, carefree days of 2005.

    what is funny is that she hails from the white trash capital of NJ, Toms River. That had to rough onthe girl.

    @tonilost: toms river is so not the NJ white trash capital, & anyway I'm sure the average downtown DJ would love to claim white trash cred. TR's solid working/middle class. Demetri Martin's from there.

    That...was single-handedly one of the best things this site has ever run in the four years I've been reading it. Ever. Chris: well done.

    Also, Miike Snow's record is pretty wonderful.
