So Portland, Oregon’s most recentish hype band,The Gossip just dropped this dime of a vid on us and are about to release their next single “Standing In the Way of Control.” Their sound doesn’t seem to be my cup of tea, but it seems as though the ladies love them, so I figured I’d give them a shout out here.
Though it may seem that there’s not much going on in this video, aside from the usual….hanging out and knitting. I did notice three ingredients that put this video above many others. Pizza, Riot Grrls 1, and yes, the Cowbell. If its good enough for me, its good enough for you. That is all.

- Although I’m probably physically and dance-ablly stronger than those grrls, Im sure they could each kick my ass single-handedly in a fist fight or dance-off, don’t ask me why.










Even the cute, tough chicks couldn’t make this video impressive to me. I didn’t dig the song much either. Eventhough I get the jist of it, why does the fat chick have to be eating all the time? Ain’t right I tell you, just ain’t right…
Nothing about this post interests me. I got up and left during the video, which should tell you something.
I really liked your article. My compliments!! Thank you!
