Cindy Adams is clearly irritated with her intern’s indie-rock-chattiness: “I am full of – now, watch your mouths – information about heavy-duty music makers. Spoon, the indie band out of Austin, Texas? Well, they got a lead singer. Whatever his name is he was at a free South Street Seaport concert . . .” Aw, no mention of Britt Daniel’s name, even? That intern is so fired. [NYP via extrawack!]

Spoon, the indie band out of Austin, Texas? Well, they got a lead singer. Whatever his name is he was at a free South Street Seaport concert.
To paraphrase Lisa Simpson: I know those words, but that makes no sense.
@mike a: No shit. I am so fucking confused. Happy Monday, kids!
In case anyone was wondering, his Brittness was checking out the Fujiya & Miyagi/Black Moth Super Rainbow show on July 6. Musically good, visually meh, and good for people watching. And yes, the Cindy Adams quote barely qualifies as English.
Hm, I guess they must have gone down to the South Street Seaport just after being interviewed by the *real* paper.

@Catbirdseat: Aww. That puffy fangirl piece is so blindingly adorable.
