Ted Leo: THE MUSICAL!
Earlier this month, one of my favorite musicians, Mr. Ted Leo (he of “and the Pharmacists” fame) added fuel to the fire of his apparent eminent retirement.
Rumors had run fast and furious across the web that he would be leaving the music industry, and according to a very lengthy blog on his website, he would be leaving the world of music…and entering the world of music theater.
It turned out to be a gag (of course), as it was viral promotion for his latest music video. For the great track “Bottled In Cork” off his new album The Brutalist Bricks, this video includes cameos from a number of great comedians (including Paul F. Tompkins and John Hodgman), and in general, is a hilarious and great video for a downright great song.
