vampire weekend on take away shows

vampire weekend has three videos up in the latest installment of la blogotheque’s take away shows.

bojan krkic

having just turned 17 in august, bojan krkic might just be this world’s next great footballer.

need proof? try this video from the champions league match against stuttgart last wednesday.

wow.

come on you spurs

tottenham look poised to ascend the premiership standings after a four-nil drubbing of Wigan.

my prediction – spurs will be in the top half of the table by new year

great story

so one day patrick moberg is on the subway and sees the girl of his dreams.

he wants to find her again, so he creates a website detailing the events asking people to help him find this girl.

a few short days later, the girl is found, they meet, and soon they’re on morning television.

only in this day and age.

marta marta marta

the american ladies bowed out of the women’s world cup earlier this morning to brazil, thanks to two goals from the best female player in the world – marta. do yourself a favor and watch her second goal (fourth of the match). ronaldinho would be proud to call that his own.

scatterbrained thoughts

- If you have not seen Sigur Rós in concert , watching this is an imperative

- One of my professor freelances on the side, here’s his product: Congressionalbadboys.com

- From that site: “CREW’s annual most corrupt members of Congress” list

-Weslyan’s Rap Anthem: New Teen Force – “Party On Fountain”

- Congrats to David at Culture of Soccer for getting an article published by Christian Science Monitor

- My new favorite awful video

- Ronaldinho moving to Chelsea?

– [even better] Jose Mourinho to come to Tottenham?

i can’t think of many other sites that continually present the caliber of quality live music videos as La Blogotheque’s Take Away Shows. Please enjoy their latest addition, young Zach Condon and Beirut performing “Nantes” of the forthcoming Flying Club Cup. Watch the video here.
