Got this off the Mish list.

 

Page Six Magazine reports that on Halloween, recently divorced actor Bill Murray showed up at a hipster loft party in East Williamsburg. He drank a few Modelo Especial beers, danced with the girls, and engaged in a conversation with the party's host about how much they both enjoyed sweet potato casserole. Then one of the guests, somewhat tactlessly, approached the actor and said, "I think you're making bad life choices." Mr. Murray thanked the host and left.

Apparently, the youth of New York City have had several encounters of this sort with the actor; he seems to just sort of show up places. On Halloween, Mr. Murray was party-hopping with the dance pop band MGMT, whose show he attended earlier that evening at the Music Hall of Williamsburg. Earlier that month....

I find it hilarious that MGMT are becoming this quiet indie sensation.

I wish Bill Murray would just sort of show up at the parties I go to.

Quiet indie sensation? 

At lollapalooza they had a crowd that was comparable to any of the headliners.

I read that "quiet indie sensation" thing as sarcasm, was I wrong?  There's nothing quiet or indie or sensational about their rise to whatever it is they've risen to.  Hahaha. 

I was unaware of the extent of their success. Either way... it blows my mind. 

 

When I saw them in 05 touring with Of Montreal, they looked like nothing more than a gag act.  

I bet that guy who questioned Murray's "life choices" felt like a real ass when he left.

I hope the guy that said that to Murray feels like an ass.

Yeah that's pretty much what I meant. What a brilliant tactical move by Murray. He def got the last laugh.
