Hot Swabbable Man





As Molly and I learned at the ACL Festival this weekend, people can get pretty dirty in 107 degree heat and dust clouds so thick they look like fog. It was a great festival anyway and even though Mike Doughty might have been singing about Hot Swappable Men, all Molly heard was Hot Swabbable and as she put it, 'I don't think I want one of those, because that would be gross.'

One of the highlights of the event, however, was brought to us by The Kaiser Chiefs, who were real troopers, performing at the hottest part of the day and refusing to limit their stage antics just because of a little heat. Of course, Molly and I were afraid the lead singer was going to pass out in front of us from the heat, but he hung in there, even if they did have to cut it short by 15 minutes. Hey they weren't the only ones. Rilo Kiley also called it a day 10 minutes early. We love them both though and now I have to go buy their album, Employment.

Here's to Sunday's best Hot Swabbable Man.
