Indie-Rockers – They’re Just Like US!

Episode #53 in the ongoing in-depth reportage of indie-rock publications (Pitchfork, Brooklyn Vegan) closely following and enthusiastically charting the completely prosaic and mundane life of their indie-rock idols (not to mention closely resembling US Weekly). This ridiculous installment has the Arcade Fire engaged in an emotional match of basketball.

Next week, the National go grocery shopping… Sadly, no this isn’t a slow news day. Brooklyn Vegan actually stopped the presses to report about Takka Takka’s self-made Simpsons likenesses. Someone stop the bleeding.

The National actually played Clap Your Hands Say Yeah in a rousing game of footie once and Brooklyn Vegan sent down it’s crack paparrazi team to document the thrilling event.
