    There's an article in Artforum, I think it was, written by Kim Gorden in the extremely early eighties about what corporate shills and sellouts some artists have become. I think she was taking offense at Laurie Anderson, but I might be remember it wrong -- stumbled across it writing a college paper like two decades ago.

    I love it when folks get apoplectic about favorite "indie" bands "selling out." Especially a band with a high public profile like Sonic Youth. Not saying they are bad or good, but c’mon. Who cares?

    Now let’s please talk about the The Doobie Brothers on What’s Happening... Because that taught us all about how taping concerts was a bad, bad, bad thing.

    Sonic Youth can do whatever the fuck they want. It's not going to make me watch Gossip Girl, though.

    @Soup: Co-sign on both counts. (Although everything about Gossip Girl makes me feel like it's tailored more to the Sonic Youth demo than the kids-on-the-show demo. Sort of like the old "no one who's 17 reads Seventeen" maxim in reverse.)

    At least she had an awesome, artistic career for years before she decided to do something like this. Not like P Diddy/Douchey who basically created a career solely based on the goal to eventually sell out. I, the drinker of many vodkas, staunchly refuse to drink Ciroc because of its association with the ass clown trying to reinvent the "Rat Pack".

    @HypocriticalOath: Because Sonic Youth is appearing on a CW show according to a schedule that you deem artistically appropriate, it's okay?

    When I get drunk later, I'll be thinking of you.

    I just love how the older Thurston Moore gets, the more he looks like Mick Jagger. Who would have predicted this?
