Hey! This is hard rock chick remember! Look who showed up on AOL’s list. But number 17? C’mon. Jared Leto at number 3, JT at 1….and the rest just don’t belong.
flight of the conchords
Flight of the Conchords is the new bit of brilliantness showing on HBO. The half hour comedy follows 2 guys in a “digi-folk” band from New Zealand. They’ve relocated to New York to try to ‘make it’.
