Today in the world.
This morning I read an article in the New York Times about a Saudi Arabian girl rock band called The AccoLade.
Not only do they have several piercings and teased hair, but they went to a coffee shop to give an interview.
This morning, when I visited their MySpace, they had 17 friends. Not even 24 hours later, they have 584 friends.
Tons of people have posted on the wall saying how amazing they are and what a great thing they're doing. Changing the world, one garage band at a time.
And my fuckin' MySpace is all screwy and won't play the damn song. I don't even know what they sound like.
Oh well. I'm just proud to live in the world today. Just for this group of punk rockers in some basement in Saudi Arabia that got over 500 MySpace friends in a day because of a New York Times article saying, "DUDE, these girls are amazing cuz they're in Saudi Arabia and they're DAMNING THE MAN!"
Thanks to the NY Times for printing this article. Thanks to all those people who have friended them. No thanks to MySpace for being slow but I guess that's because that song is now the hottest new thing. This makes the world feel a little smaller in a good way.
