Today at work, I discovered an abandoned stereo and decided to give it a home and love it as my own.
I wanted to see if it worked, so I grabbed some CDs from my car, figuring that if it did, I could just listen to all of them and it would keep me entertained and make the day go by faster. An incredibly simple concept I just realized today. Cool.
The only CDs I had with me, though, were Andrew Jackson Jihad’s Knife Man, Alkaline Trio’s Good Mourning, and The New Pornographer’s Electric Version. I figured Catholic educators might not be too thrilled about profanity or Satanism, I decided The New Pornographers was the way to go. Sure enough, the first person to pass by after I started listening was an seventy-year-old nun. The only non-lay person who works in the whole school. What are the odds? She asked me what I was listening to. “The New… Photographers.”

A nearby catholic university who sometimes books indie shows (saw Mountain Goats, Final Fantasy and the Decemberists there) tried to book The New Pornos, and the school canceled the show because of their name.
