I know, aren't they great? Too bad they're in Steve from Boerum Hill's hate pit! They have fun with the preppy, privileged white guy thing, though I'm pretty sure Rostam Batmanglij is not white. He looks really nice in an oxford shirt and scarf, though! Also, Ezra Koenig is most likely Jewish or at least half-Jewish like me, so he's not exactly a WASP either. Either way, they're fun and put on a really great show and also pronounce Louis Vuitton correctly!
The Cake Shop thing was just a rumor, but they did play an in store at Other Music. Other Music were kind enough to provide free coffee, bagels, muffins and assorted baked goods for those standing in line. They even saved your place in line for you! Also, Peter of Peter, Bjorn, and John and Demetri Martin were in attendance, as was a hungover girl who spilled hot coffee on my shoes. How nice of them to play a show literally hours before they left for a European tour!
