So freaking rad.  I saw them last September when they opened for a very cool band called Nero.

The lead singer Robert was the guy who played the romantic lead in The Princess Diaries.  His brother is Jason Schwartzmen who's been in some movies and is the drummer for Phantom Planet...another very cool band.

Their new CD comes out on 5/20.  Such a rad band...my fave song is "Popstars".

hey baby
you've hit me again one more time
you've said bye bye bye bye bye bye goodbye
i don't want to be with you tonight, forever
do you understand my monologue?

these are the words of the popstars
these are the words of the unsophisticated money machines
for the killers of rock and roll

hey digital
you're nothing but a bitch on strings
you'll be back milking cows before you cash the check
i'll just wait around till you fade away like the rest
like the best of the best
do you understand my monologue?

these are the words of the popstars
these are the words of the unsophisticated money machines
for the killers of rock and roll

do you understand my monologue?

said these are the words of the popstars
these are the words of the
these are the words of the popstars
these are the words of the unsophisticated money machines
for the killers of rock and roll...



Me and Rene with Robert
I think you underestimate the level of my sneakiness

The only date they have in NY is in NYC...don't remember which club though.  I'm going to see them 6/19 in SF.  Should be good times.

Rosie, he was wandering about outside and my friend REALLY wanted a pic with him but was way too chicken to ask.  Since I didn't realize who he was, and there wasn't anyone really around him, I just walked up and was like "Can me and my friend get a pic with you?"  He said sure so we posed and took a couple of pics.

OMG...the CD is sooooooooooo good.

Other recommended songs include "Bluside", "Stay Away", "If It Were Up To Me", "I'm Shakin", "Sorry, Sorry".

To me, they have sort of a surfer vibe...so very cool.

I first heard about them from my friend at school. I've only heard "blueside" though and I like it.

I think they are great and I'm gonna go see them in Dallas for only $10.50 on June 16th  at the Trees venue. Same place I met VC and Michelle Branch. Odds are that I will definately meet Rooney as well :-)
