Keytar Featured, Supergroup Vetoed

I've been watching Flight of the Conchords. I am deeply in like with it. It's not belly laughs but I find it amusing.

Anyway, I bring it up because last night's episode featured the band breaking up, and Jermaine, or Brett, being replaced by Demetri Martin. Demetri's instrument was the keytar. Also, later in the episode, there was a proposal to form a supergroup from the two splinter Flight of the Conchords, which was nixed. Also, Jermaine, or Brett, did this Kevin Bacon/Footloose dance.

I only bring this up because of the following reasons:

1--I have a longstanding fascination with the keytar
2--I am always going on about supergroups
3--I used to do the Kevin Bacon thing in the living room of 1453 Q St--I would punctuate it with a leap off of the ottoman, much like Bacon's leap off of the grain elevator

Furthermore, I have a feeling certain people, if they watched this show now, will claim that it's boring and it sucks. Later, in about 4-5 months, after it gets big, they'll do a 180 and say they liked it all along. Sacklunch did this with Austin Powers. Some people just need to be told what's good.

And also, I would like to point out that, despite my recent entry into the ranks of America's dads, I am still relevant, bitches. Eat a dick. Eat two dicks.
