Video: Vampire Weekend and Black Keys Fight It Out on ‘Colbert Report’
Grammy-nominated bands are challenged to a 'sell-out-off'
The Black Keys and Vampire Weekend frontman Ezra Koenig stopped by The Colbert Report last night to help Stephen Colbert fill out his Grammy ballot: Since both bands are up for Best Alternative Music Album, he challenged them to a “sell-out-off” in which the musicians showed off the high-profile television ads that featured their songs in 2010.
But after Colbert determined that both bands “equally whored out” their music, things got a bit violent. Check it out.
