They Might Be Giants played last night (Apr. 24) at UCLA Royce Hall. They had a special first hour with three different authors reading poetry. Dave Egar had a story about a boy who, during the reading, listened to The Smiths song "Well I Wonder." While reading this story, They Might Be Giants played the music to "Well I Wonder" and John Flansburgh sang it! It was a great show and just another surprise "tribute" to The Smiths.

  • I certainly want a recording of this. That sounds nuts. I used to like They Might Be Giants a ton when i was younger!

    I wonder if they'll post it on their site....

  • The writer you spoke of is named Dave Eggers, author of "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius" and "You Shall Know Our Velocity". FYI. I would also love to hear this.
