Sub Pop's Chad VanGaalen does a stupid human trick


Posted at 12:01 am

In today's paper, I gave a B-plus to Chad Van Gaalen’s new album, "Soft Airplane."

I also mentioned that the songwriter popped up on David Letterman. He wasn't there to sing. No, he was there to perform a stupid human trick.

As promised in the review, here's the clip, which finds the tall singer and a smaller friend getting very close to one another. If you don’t have time to watch the whole thing, skip directly to the 2:34 mark for VanGaalen.
