Here's a funny story. When I was in San Francisco a couple months ago, I went into a tiny little coffee shop right off Haight. The music that was playing was very enjoyable and familiar to me; I instantly recognized it.
There were two baristas working, both "hip/artsy" looking girls around 18-19.
Barista A: This music is cool, what is it?
Barista B: Like omigod, it's the new Arcade Fire!
Barista A: Wow, really?
Just goes to show, even in the big city people can be pretty clueless.
Jimmy the Squid:
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Is it that the music wasn't the Arcade Fire? Or that Barista A is an idiot for not recognizing it instantly? Honestly I wouldn't know Arcade Fire if the band were to set my apartment on fire and then play a 40 minute set as I burned to death trying to save my beloved possessions (I love material things).
a pack of wolves:
I don't get it either. Arcade Fire are pretty dull and even if they weren't not recognising them hardly makes somebody clueless.
KharBevNor:
I think his point is that those girls had not had the secret hipster initiation, and thus were unworthy to serve him coffee. Did you subtly check for the scars of the whip upon their back, and the dark mark of Steve Albini upon their wrists?
Did you try the secret handshake?
