Yeah I saw it. It was almost weird hearing the word be used on TV,
it's so rarely done. In addition, they played a Future Clouds and
Radar song and had Robert on the show performing (albeit lip synched
for some reason, but cool nonetheless)
The show was created by Rob Thomas who is from Austin originally and
so mentioned another Austin band I forget now. On his previous show
Veronica Mars, he played a couple Cotton Mather songs and had Paul
Rudd play an aging rock star whose one "hit" was a Cotton Mather song.
So if we stick with Rob Thomas maybe we can get a power pop overthrow
on TV!!!
