You sat on my shoulder (figuratively) as I tried to write something decent from 2,000 miles and 40+ degrees away. Yes, yes... The Vampire Weekend boys seem to be pretty familiar with MA. I dig them too -- a musical way. :-) ~r </p> http://bostonist.com/2008/03/22/boston_to_austi_1.php#comment-1319812 http://bostonist.com/2008/03/22/boston_to_austi_1.php#comment-1319812 Comments Sun, 23 Mar 2008 11:34:16 -0500 <p>great post, sorry i didn't help out with it. don't forget that the infamous VAMPIRE WEEKEND, despite being a bunch of columbia boys, have several mass shoutouts in their songs, including "walcott"'s chorus, "don't you wanna get out of cape cod tonight?" the song also name-checks several cape locations like wellfleet, provincetown, & hyannisport (though the mentions aren't necessarily positive...). plus they've got an entire song about "boston (ladies of cambridge)." and they're really cute. yes, i've bought into the hype. bought and SOLD.</p>
