Hockey Stay Up Late with a Man Named Jools

Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 9:22 AM

The Gossip aren't the only Stumptown dwellers big on the other side of the pond, as the local Hockey gents just performed a pair of tunes on the BBC's Later... with Jools Holland program. Other guests included Oumou Sangare, Bat for Lashes, and Yusuf Islam.

Wait, the band that was playing Portland basement shows a few months ago just played a television show with Cat Stevens?

My head just exploded.

End Hits: That clip is the only scene I have ever seen from Scanners. I really hope the entire movie is like that.

After watching both of their performances on Jools, I say the U.K. can keep them.

They should change their name to kickball. I can't imagine too many hockey players liking their tunes. Air hockey players, maybe.

Totally contrived fashion sense is just as contrived as the music. They're a perfect balance of mediocrity.
