OK so we like Man Man. A lot. We’re fans, I swear. But we couldn’t pick them out of a crowd apparently because when we went to their show we got up our liquid courage, put on our most benevolent faces and asked these hip-ass mofos for a shot:
We loved the Asics, geek glasses, striped fedora, white clogs and especially the oversized fleece sweater and white deck shoes. HOT.
We were all like, “Oooh! you get to be on a fashion blog! Aren’t you excited??”
And yes, they turned out to be the band pre-costume change. I suppose it’s an understandable mistake when we’re more used to seeing them like this:
But still, a rather un-hip moment.
My boyfriend played a show with them when they were in salt lake city. (www.myspace.com/ddm)
They are pretty awesome, and verrrry funny!
Those are some stylish laddies!
This is so ironic because I just talked to my friend Michel who also had a conversation with Man Man this week at a show they had in Missouri. He also saw Johnny Marr of the Smiths in his pajamas, I’m so jealous. They look like an awesome band!
that is the most adorable story. man man played a show at my university last month and it was fantastic. i too would probably not recognize them without their tennis whites!
the one of the right — very stylish. i’m jealous of his hat, sweater, and loafers.

Ha, that is so cute. At least you get to say that you “met the band” which you totally did.
