Play that Funky Music White Boys

Vampire Weekend took the plane back to New York to show the kids how it's done on SNL. The Columbia University Preps with a propensity for African musical stylings showed they are more than just a buzz band with a tight set.

Go for "A-Punk." UPDATE: The video was removed due to copyrights. Instead enjoy the official music video for Vampire Weekend's "A-Punk." 

Check out how high guitarist/vocalist Ezra Koenig's guitar is hanging! Now, that's a proper rock star!

Wilco - Kicking Ass, Taking Names on SNL

Wilco rocked out with fellow hipster Ellen Page, Juno, on Saturday Night Live this past week. First, Jeff Tweedy and Wilco performed their ode to the everyday mundanity (like doing dishes and mowing lawns) "Hate It Here".

Next, they rocked out to "Walken" featuring Nels Cline on a lap steel guitar, proving that he is a complete and total badass. UPDATE: The video was removed due to copyrights. Instead, enjoy Wilco live on "Later... with Jools Holland" performing "You Are My Face" with Nels Cline being just as badass on a 12-string guitar.

Check out "Hate It Here".

Next week SNL will have Vampire Weekend!
