Swimming Pools and Movie Stars

A band telling their fans to promote a credit card company over the internet to get to hear said band play songs with movie stars and tv characters. Now, this kind of stuff is what indie rock is all about.

If enough viewers tweet reactions to the show using #AmexUnstaged, they will unlock online-only access to Vampire Weekend’s post-show antics, which will include a backstage performance of “White Sky” alongside Buscemi and actor Fred Armisen’s quirky character Ian Rubbish.

I wonder what Ian MacKaye would think.
