Thanks to a post on Metafilter, I’ve been spending way too much time perusing this web site: Show and Tell Music. As the site says, it’s “sort of an orphanage for thrift store music and album cover art.” It’s plenty of fun to look around. There’s just way too much good stuff over there.
Anyway, I came across a band on that site and one of it’s members looked strangely familiar to me. I decided to research it a little further. After hours and hours of research I have come to the following conclusion: Michael Ivins from the Flaming Lips is secretly moonlighting in a band called Vince Vance. I know this is big news. If Wayne found out, he would surely be super pissed. I don’t want to get Michael in trouble, but I feel that this news is too important to keep to myself. I weighed all the pros and cons in my head, but ultimately I decided that the world deserves to know.
So, here you go, world: The Michael Ivins Mystery.
I hope Michael doesn’t hate me.
I hate you.
