A friend of the L Magazine just sent us this transcription of a conversation he overheard while waiting in line for his Iced Venti Vanilla Skim Latte at the Starbucks at Sixth Avenue and 45th Street.

Dude: Have you heard of this new band called Natural Milk Honey? They are very Vampire Weekend and Of Montreal. They just had the number one record on emusic, so I downloaded it. (Dude checks his ipod touch.) No, wait. they're called Neutral Milk Hotel...

Female friend of dude: You have to email me the names of these bands. I can never remember anything.

The original title of that photoshop, which we had to change because it was too long, was ihopetheyservebeerintheaeroplaneoverthesea.jpg, and it was the single funniest joke I have ever made, give or take.

5 Years? Neutral Milk Hotel's last record came out more than 10 years ago!
