Hipsters are Scary with Moujan:

MZ is scared of hipsters. You should be scared as well.

Why hipsters scare her:

1. Their clothing

2. Their hair

3. Their attitude

4. Their way of talk

5. Their love of neon clothing

6. Their musical tastes

7. Their so called "thrifty" attitude

8. Their love for American Apparel

9. Their constant denial of their hipster identity

MZ does not mean to offend. She is sure that hipsters are very nice people with charming personalities.

Music with Heather: TV on the Radio

TV on the Radio rocked Treasure Island with songs from their epic new album: Dear Science,
Favorite record from 2004: Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes

I'm disappointed they didn't mention Tegan and Sara! they only got a second of airtime on the scroll list of bands =P. Good coverage though, Moujan was great, and looked good with her bangs all done up.

As my last.fm profile shows, I love Tegan and Sara, The Raconteurs, and Goldfrapp, The Kills, and CSS are pretty cool too. I hadn't heard Loquat before, they sound good. Thanks sirens!

Whatever people may say, they're following trends in music and fashion. They may not even be aware of this group behaviour.

Ha!
Hipsters are always in denial.
The first rule to being a hipster is denying that you are a hipster.

How come when Sarah tosses to Heather it's light, but then it's dark when Heather is on the Ferris wheel, and then it's light again when Sarah starts yapping again? How'd they do that?

wow.

At least I liked the outtakes.

Not that the content was bad, mind you. Just not for me.

IMHO, "hipsters" = "hippies"

And, as much as I enjoy some Nordic bands like Enslaved and Emperor, I HIGHLY doubt that's what Sarah was talking about when she's talking about Heather's review next week.
