Last time Cloak & Dagger pranked someone, they asked Ben Gibbard for Colin Meloy’s phone number. This week, it pays off when Cloak & Dagger rings up Colin and ask him about the formative sexual experience that inspired “The Chimbley Sweep” and his inspiration in writing “Billy Liar” from Hillary Clinton’s perspective. He’s a good sport about it (turns out “Billy Liar” is actually about Mitt Romney killing Hillary when they were orphans in Boston) but he doesn’t give out the Thermals‘ phone number at the end.

Speaking of pranks, Oregon, with the Wind is a fake, but to what end? If you’re going to trade on someone else’s fame, you might as well get two alligators and a house out of it. At least when music players are faked, they get awesome names like “Sasmung” slapped on them- Oregon with the Wind? Really? Anyway, promotion gone wrong or long, boring weekend for someone with GarageBand? Who do you think was behind this?

fail!
