They were on the Henry Rollins show last year, and it was pretty great.

I saw them in Dallas, and the show was an absolute riot. It was a funky, diverse audience, too. I highly recommend checking them out if you have a chance.

What's so sad is how incredibly simple of a job that SHOULD have been. I installed a nearly identical unit in my own car in about 4 hours. The majority of that mess is because of their decision to hack and splice instead of waiting for that (less than $20 retail) adapter. Otherwise, you only have to splice (in a more professional manner) two wires if I remember correctly. (One to your speedometer to measure speed, and one their lawyers require you patch into a brake signal light so as to prevent you from programming while driving.) Otherwise it's so "plug and play" it's silly. What a shame.

I forwarded this story to a couple of friends. One wrote back:

"'Violent, Tangled, and Deeply Weird' - I think that's a great t-shirt slogan."

I couldn't agree more, so I threw something together and put it on CafePress. That's way too good a turn of phrase not to emblazon on clothing.

So here's a link, if you're so inclined.

I set the markup on everything at a buck, and any dough CafePress sends my way will be donated to Creative Commons.

I have especially high hopes for the boxers and thongs.

I'm just waiting for the world premiere video from P^2! (That's the PARTY POSSE!) "Yvan Eht Nioj!"

Don't sue me, bro!

...Or the other 1200 people who take the architectural boat tour each day. (Which I highly recommend!)

He didn't say "Simon says FREEZE" did he? No? Geez Xeni, you totally could have kept walking!
