@realitychk69 I mean he was at Occupy Wall Street. I'm sure there were enough indie music fans there who knew NMH's most famous song pretty well. I mean, if you're there and you hear that Jeff Mangum is putting on a show for the protesters and you're an NMH fan, why wouldn't you go see?
What is more amazing is that he was able to find a group of people that knew the words. Such an obscure band, I can't imagine therw would be that many that know the pure excellence of in the aeroplane.
@realitychk69 anyone who had kazaa or napster back in the day knows neutral milk hotel. Dont think for a second that you know about anything about underground or indie music you fucking hipster faggot
For the longest time, I thought the least comparable or connected things on the face of the planet would be the Slav Philosopher Slavoj Zizek and the devastatingly beautiful hipster band from Georgia, Neutral Milk Hotel. And then the lead the singer of that band married the woman who made an entire movie about Zizek, as well as another documentary featuring Zizek as one of the main speakers. Fuckin' hell. Sometimes the wildest things are the most akin.
My fucking heart is so warm right now.........
