Oh man, remember the good old days of the LES in, like 2002? The Strokes existed. Everyone had a mod haircut and a trust fund and did coke all day. Miss u early 2kz.
So do the people behind this, somehow, against all odds, actually contemporary television pilot pitch reel that's essentially a blend of "That 2000's Show!" type budget nostalgia with all the hammy drama and "the darkside of drugs, or whatever" of "Showgirls (at Don Hill's)".
Hard to pick out just one favorite line, but here are a couple to choose from:
Hard to pick out just one favorite line, but here are a couple to choose from:
"You know when there's like something inside you, and you know it's real but there's nothing to prove it? It's like the spirit is inside of me fighting to get out. It's so deep inside me and I know it's real, but there's like, nothing there. Do you know what I mean? Do you know what I mean?"
"Thanks for the tampon. I'm gonna go back to the bar now."
"You keep that up you better have enough in your trust to bail us both out."
"The worst part, Robert from Black Rebel Motorcycle called."
"Oh, I love BRMC!"
"Oh, I love BRMC!"
Check it out, you guys. Total trip down memory lane. Anyone who makes it more than two minutes without bailing get's a $40 bag (empty) that was once used by Carlos of Interpol and that one broad out of Misshapes I've been holding on to all these years just in case. Don't feel too bad though, people who made this, because all the 30 something ex-scenesters broads I showed this too were like "Oh shit yeah, I would watch that."
After you're done traipsing down memory lane, go watch this video of Muammar Gaddafi dead as shit, and see which one makes you feel worse about humanity. Gonna be honest, it's kind of a toss up for me.

I stole an original Makkies off of the wall from Max Fish for a punk rock girl and she left it in a bodega we were so drunk. Good times.
I wonder if younger people's eyes glaze over as much at shit like this as mine do when people talk about the good old days of CBGBs and whatever. WHO CARES OLD MAN.
Seriously though, this video. wowzer.
I do kind of miss those days.
