Help The Coup!

Pick a Bigger Weapon

So scary: The Coup--whose Pick a Bigger Weapon was one of my favorite hip-hip albums of the year--were in a terrifying bus crash last week while on tour. They're all (mostly) physically okay, but they lost all of their equipment, clothing, personal effects, &c.

If you haven't heard The Coup, you should--listen to some of their songs. And then, if you can, help them out by donating via the Paypal button on their MySpace page.

I can see the scene when I get back from Europe:

Ben: Hey dear, welcome back... oh by the way, I donated all our money to the Coup.
Mena: What?!
Ben: They're the Best. Band. Evah!
Ben: Oh, and I gave them Maddy. Bands need dogs too.

[this is good] I'm listening to them right now on Rhapsody while reading blogs online.  I find myself totally bouncing to the beat.  Pooka justcame out asking, "Ma, do you like that song???"

"Yah, I do, do you?"

Smiles and shakes her head and said, "Sounds kinda funny..."

Haha!  This was when the Laugh/Love?F*** was playing... :)

Wow... that's really sad.  Glad they're okay.
