Ben Gibbard, Ted Leo, Patton Oswalt Visit The Best Show

The excellent WFMU is in the midst of their 50th anniversary pledge drive, so last night the unlikely trio listed above variously stopped by Tom Scharpling's The Best Show to help raise cash. You can hear the 3-hour broadcast -- all pledge shout outs included! -- by heading here. Ted could always raise money with his awesome arm wrestling skills. We're pretty sure he could beat Ben. Also as part of the drive, Yo La Tengo Murdered The Classics Sunday night, though that archive's unavailable. Which doesn't mean you shouldn't pledge.

The YLT archive is unavailable because it was a total SNOOZEFEST!

I have to admit, I enjoyed YLT's redition of The Passenger.
