kind of old but really funny

So for years now I've been trying to be cool and know about all the hot new indie bands before everyone else does and I was doing a respectable job at it but then the OC came along. All of a sudden everyone knows Death Cab, Modest Mouse plays live on the show, and every other new discovery of mine ends up on one of their continously releasing mix soundtracks. Anyway, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, currently one of the aforementioned hot new indie bands, was asked to do a live gig on the OC, and they turned down the opportunity! Gothamist had already been asking bands they interview whether they'd play the Bait Shop, so Daily Refill posted a rundown of the responses. I'm still not really cool enough to recognize all the bands but it was still funny.

Oh and I've never heard of Man in Grey, but one of their members said that her dream was to play the Bronze on Buffy so bonus points to them and I'm now going to check them out. =)
