Vampire Weekend didn't win anything at the Grammys, but maybe they will in 2k13/2k45. It seems like the still went to try to improve their market share in our post-Arcade Fire 'best band in the world' indiemainstreamosphere. Do yall think "Contra" was better than "The Suburbs"?

Anyways, they were interviewed by some 'talking head gossip losers' who are trying to end up hosting Entertainment Tonight [via John Tesh], but right now they are stuck working 'the side stage' of the Grammys, interviewing bands that they aren't really familiar with even though Vampy Weeks sold mad albums.

Feel kinda bad 4 the band 4 having 2 talk 2 these schmucks. Wish they had the 'indie etiquette' of a music blogger, doing the proper wikipedia research and asking 'unique, innovative questions' that the band 'has never answered before.'

Here are some sample questions that these ppl asked:
-"So every1 here is more famous than yall...Who do yall want 2 meet that is actually famous?"
-"How did u get ur sillie band name?" -u can see Ezra Broenig pausing because he wanted to 'lie' and throw down a meme
-"So yall play basketball with Win Butler of the Arcade Fire?"
-"Short films can lead 2 something, huh?"
-"Blah blah bloo blee indie blah, right?"

Do u think it was a good thing that Vampy Weeks went 2 the Grammys?
Do u think enough tweens found out abt who they were, or did tweens stop watching because Justin Bieber didn't win anything?
Was Rostam 'too nice' 2 these lamestreamers?
Does Ezra Koenig look 'mad pissed' to be there? Do u think he is upset that they lost 2 the Black Keys?

Is Win Butler the #1 basketball player in the indiesphere?

"I'M TAKING MY TALENTS TO CANADA." -WIN BUTLER LEAVING THE SUBURBS OF HOUSTON

Really feel like I could take down Win despite his size if u just 'get into his head' with tons of trash talk abt Regine / Haiti / the Suburbs / "I know who u really are" [via playing hoops in ur driveway in Texas].

Remember last year when the MGMT was interviewed on the red carpet? [link]

Remember the time Phoenix was interviewed on the Grammy red carpet? [link]

Can Vampy Weeks write the next great indie album/reclaim glory 4 American indie music?
