I'd be more excited if noise rock was getting exposure to a wide audience. Most people have never even heard of it, let alone listened to it.

Thurston Moore Totally Fits In With the Boys From Gossip Girl Photo: Rolling Stone At first, our inner disaffected teenager kind of recoiled at the idea of edgy nineties band Sonic Youth appearing on consumer-porn soap Gossip Girl, even if it is our favorite show ever. But looking at this picture of Thurston Moore, Chace Crawford, and Ed Westwick, all looking totally comfortable and compatible, like none of them has ever shot heroin into his eyeballs or anything like that, makes us feel like its not that weird. If it were H.R. from the Bad Brains, that would be weird. But this? Fine. [Rolling Stone] |

So if they relearn an acoustic version of this song, it´s not to far away to re learn the whole song and starting to playing it!!!
This would be the best Sonic Youth news ever, considering it´s one of their best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

"edgy nineties band"? see, the problem isn't selling out. the problem is the risk of losing historical perspective...

Sonic Youth Report In From the Set of “Gossip Girl”
9/3/09, 2:01 pm EST Sonic Youth have finished filming their cameo for the October 12th episode of Gossip Girl, in which the downtown art rockers meet the uptown rich kids by guesting as a wedding band and performing their Eighties classic “Star Power.” “Kim [Gordon] and I are pretty fanatical viewers of the show,” Thurston Moore tells Rolling Stone. “It’s sort of our dose of Shakespeare every week.” One of the show’s stars, Zuzanna Szadkowski (who plays awesome Polish maid Dorota — Number #7 on our 50 Reasons to Watch TV story in the new issue), tells RS the band was more than welcome on set. “I’m really looking forward to that episode because I think they have a cool contribution to make to that scene.” A few weeks back, Moore himself sent us an e-mail with a photo of him kicking it with G.G. stars Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick. (His daughter Coco, who is also a huge fan of the show, took the picture.) “Ed and Chace seemed aware of who we are, but they were more interested in Kings of Leon,” says Moore. “Those are their boys.” Moore got a chance to impart some advice to Taylor Momsen, who’s got a budding music career of her own with her band the Pretty Reckless. “I asked her about her [recent] tour and she said it wasn’t exactly the kind of tour she wanted to do,” says Moore. “And I said that it never really is. Then I told her to read Henry Rollins’ Get In the Van.” Moore has been involved with Gossip Girl before. Last year, he teamed up with ex-Be Your Own Pet frontwoman Jemina Pearl to cover a version of the Ramones’ “Sheena Is a Punk Rocker,” which aired as background music. But is there any chance of more Sonic Youth cameos on G.G. in the future? “I’d like to have a role on the show,” says Moore. “I’d love to be a 51-year-old ex-indie rocker who hangs out in some capacity. Maybe I can be kind of an art-rock nemesis to Dan Humphrey or something.” |
