adding two drummers from the caribbean for a tour is such an amazingly 80s gimmick. waiting on a red red wine cover.

I'd guess the model is I Zimbra/Remain In Light era Talking Heads, with additional disco dub 12"s.

best meta episode of SNL was the Charles Grodin ep from (I think) season 1?
No, third season. See bumped Grodin thread.

Personally I loved the line in the drunk ex-porn stars sketch about "some shoes are flat... they are for nurses." Truth bomb right there.

fwiw I loved those Arcade Fire performances and the subsequent concert was so much fun, I might actually be getting into the band after years of my husband trying to make me like them.

Their new sound finally made me feel free to not feel bad about finding them bland for years. Thanks Arcade Fire!
I wish the older ex-pornstars ads were still up somewhere - SNL and Hulu are way overzealous about pulling shit off of the internet.
