    buy a bunch of sponges, bobby pin them to your clothes and when people ask what you're supposed to be, tell them you're self absorbed.

    I saw Art Brut. You'll definitiely want to see the video of the Spinto Band dancing to We Are Scientists' cover of "Bang Bang Rock N' Roll." One thing I left out was the excellent tour shirts -- sadly, they were out of mens' sizes for the one where "Art Brut" is was made to look like the logo for Metallica, with the tagline, "Master of Pop Hits."

    Lynerd - Good idea! Thanks for the link!

    Cap'nCrunk - THAT IS HILARIOUS! If I can find cheap skeleton costume I'll do it!

    this is a bit late, but I saw Art Brut on Sunday night here in Montreal! Art Brut were absolutely fantastic, and the finale was wonderful... WAS covered Hotel California but all three bands went on stage. The Spinto Band danced around with WAS underwear on their faces, Keith Murray rode around on Eddie Argos's shoulders ... it was the best ending to a concert that I'd ever seen.
