I just read the wikipedia info on the band and the picture showing them was taken in Hamburg… back in November, I remember I wasn't even in the city that day, but it just… they've been here?!???… AND in the molotow? (that's like the best location for a concert, I've been there twice and both times so close to the band that I had to look out for the guitars…) Aaaaaah, that kills me..
Oh and another thing… I can't pick a favourite song… usually I have one or maybe two songs I really really like on an album, but I just cannot decide (quite similiar to OK Go)
It's great to wake up and first thing you do is watch some videos biggrin.gif And I like their scarf-wearing too, it's so cute.
And I LOVE that first SNL promo video, the way Chris looks.. haha biggrin.gif



Surfer Rosa- You're my hero ^^ (even more even more!!!)

GRR I didn't tape long enough last night so I didn't get to see them on SNL. But here's the only video on YouTube I could find that wasn't taken off for copyright infringement. They played A-Punk and M79, but it's not on YouTube anymore. Did you guys watch it? =D

Ah so many links and I don't have time to watch!
Huge fucking paper to write this weekend and it's killing me!
I did see the first performance on SNL last night and it was adorable!
But then I went to sleep because I knew fucking daylight savings time was going to fuck me over.
I can't wait til this paper is over so I can check out all this videos!
Vinnie how did you find so many wonderful pictures?!

oh, and i found all my pictures on flickr. there was like 2000. i'm sure i didn't make it past half of them…

ahh! i was so nervous the whole day…my body couldn't take their cuteness!!! i was totally freaking out. at the end of the show they were just hugging everyone, awwwww…it made me happy. oh! and then there was that pic they showed with their chins on their hands and then their elbows on their knees (if that makes any sense…) well it was super adorable. wub.gif they're going to kill me!!!

i think i had some sort of vw dream but i can't remember it sad.gif

aww, yeah, they sold out fast. i didn't buy them at first because i didn't have any money so i had to go on ebay. i got a pair for about $80…i think that's decent…but i guess considering that they were like $14 that's pretty high…

okay, so I totally fell asleep after they played A-Punk!
and I missed M79, which sucks cause I haven't heard that one as often.

but I found it on youtube, thankfully, even though apparently snl are control freaks about copyright enfringement?
M79
A-Punk, in case that other link up there dies…
hopefully they won't get deleted right away smile.gif
but anyways, they were totally adorable, and I love the little string quartet playing with them, that was very cool.

and yeah, I completely found out about them AFTER they played Boston… and it was the MFA, too which would have been supercool. sad.gif
oh well. Maybe eventually they won't sell out? Maybe?

biggrin.gif

But you give me something, something like hope so long, and thanks for the fish <3

and Vinnie, those mtv clips are spectacular!! wub.gif
poor Chris Baio, he was so cute trying to ride that bike smile.gif
and the PSA… classic smile.gif smile.gif
I love when bands have a sense of humor. It just makes everything better.

Oh sad.gif I feel really out of the loop cause I can't watch the videos. That PSA is the only thing I can watch (fuck you mtv) It was great though! Laugh" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Angelaaaaaa, lovely darling beautiful sexy Angela wub.gif Could you please upload your fanvid somewhere else for me? I need to see it! Especially after all the fuss it caused.

Also, as of today, I've burned their CD 5 different people. I know it sounds bad but the band make hardly a skerrick off of album sales and I'm spreading the love at a more rapid pace than if these people had to go out and buy it (if they bought it at all.)
Sorry. I had to unload. I'm OK yeah?


Cutie bums!

Just to let you all know, NPR is webcasting their SXSW show (which includes Jens Lekman and Shout Out Louds. I wish I could go. sad.gif). You can read about it here: http://www.npr.org/templates/s…..ry/story.p…toryId=87924284

Also, I have to add this because I love Daytrotter and Spinto Band: http://www.daytrotter.com/arti…..re-weekend

You're welcome! Your Tommy is going to be at SXSW? He's going to be here next week. I'm thinking about going, but I have no one to go with and it's at a place that I don't really know how to get to. If it was at a different venue, I wouldn't mind going by myself.

Now, to get back on topic, both of the VW San Francisco shows are sold out, but I could only have gone to one anyway (damn age restrictions).

I won't be out of school in time to hear Jens or the Shout Out Louds, but I'll get to hear VW at least.

(oh, and Spinto Band? wub.gif )

haha I still haven't bothered to figure out who Tommy is… it's almost more entertaining when I don't know, haha. But seriously, who is he? tongue.gif

So today after school this pretentious indie snob kid was playing music in the art department, and he goes "let's put on everyone's favorite new band" and I was immediately like "VW!?!!?!", just in my head
and then it turned out he really did mean Vampire Weekend.
and I started singing along and he and his friend were really impressed that I knew who they were.

good story, right? tongue.gif

Oui. I had a friend that heard me say Vampire Weekend a couple of days ago and she started obsessing with me. And then I made a song reference by saying the kids don't stand a chance…she just gaped at me. haha
