Fantastic video! I went to NOLA every Mardi Gras for about 9 years straight when my BFF lived there. He was driven away by the hurricane, so I fear my visits hereafter will be few and far between. I LOVED the French Market.

Haha someone told my mom to download a LCD single and she thought she got a song by another band with the same name since it sounded nothing like what she was told. It was funny when I told her that was LCD Soundsystem.

Absolutely, we do. The only consolation is the “better way” should triumph, yet!
If there is a “better” way, and it's there somewhere, I guess we'll find it.
But that way is not my way, your way, his or her way or their way, it's just “the way”.
Trouble is, it's not in sight yet, anywhere!
