New Orleans Beef

Crikey! If you like Of Montreal, make sure not to mention their hookup with Outback Steak House* in front of their frontman, Kevin Barnes:

our show was a lot of fun. the highlights for me were the debut of the three headed tiger bull and the first live performance of "the past is a grotesque animal". the low point was when a group of misguided creeps chanted "steak,steak, steak" after we played "wraith pinned to the mist". it just proves,no matter how much you want to add something positive to the world, there will always be people who try to bring you down. not to say our selling of a song to a corporate steak house was something positive, but sometimes you have to suck a little dick to get by. that's just a hard fact of life. but really, of all the evil organizations out there, it's hard to imagine the thought process behind heckling of Montreal. oh well.

Word. New Orleans Indie types -- please go heckle Freeport McMoRan, or Ruth's Chris instead. Leave self-proclaimed indie cocksuckers alone. George Carlin's character articulates a similar philosophy in Jay & Silent Bob, but I think he was joking. Also, did Elf Power steal your shift key?  More generally, if you want to chant "Steak" at a rock show and not ruffle the singer's.... ruffles, see when you can catch up with the Rev.

ps- If anyone has an mp3 of "Eat Steak" send it, and I'll post it on up. The commercial is here, btw.

*Make sure safe search is on before you do a Google Image search for "Outback Steakhouse."

Update: The Revernend Horton Heat "Eat_Steak" (a tip of the fin to Ms. Fury)

Other Update: Do not watch the clip. You will get the Outback theme lodged in your head like it was Khan. If you find yourself at your local Outback, a Glock in the waistband of your Depends, don't blame me.

Are you sure they aren't the Society for Van Helsing and, thinking that someone wearing such ruffles could only be a member of the undead, were yelling "Stake Stake Stake?"

Maybe...
