"Beverly Hills" is still better than the Arcade Fire.

Jus' sayin', which is to mean, Jus' sayin' Pitchfork is not so much an arbiter of taste as cool.

But, anyway, I think it's cute when we hate our friends as they achieve success.

I read ILX all the time now, but the threads move too fast for me to be bothered posting in.

This is funny shit

LA-based Weezer anecdote:

I was in a used clothing store once and this girl was clearing the mens racks, literally buying everything in site. I inquired and she told me she was a personal shopper for Weezer and that they really liked to "look indie" but that it simply too difficult and took too much of their time to cultivate "the look" themselves, so they were paying her to do it for them.

hahhaha i never anticipated this thread getting _this_ big

Haha it's only cuz LA people are insecure about LA = SHITHOLE that the blood got angried up.


er, no. we're just sick of all the bitching that ppl who don't even live / spend any time here give us. based on preconceived notions..and personally i'm just tired of the "its cool to diss LA" mentality which partially originates from LA's default non-indieness (it is the center of wealth / fame / ppl who sell out (l'industry de film):)

if any ppl are insecure about their city's status, it is san franciscans and chicagoans (the "former" second city) !! we already know ya'll hate us since we're the shit, and everything opens here and in NY before it reaches you...

Bee- It’s the only board I feel intimidated at, because I do post there. They just have so many writers from major publications that you have to be on your toes, so to speak. It puts that Hip board to shame
