Nic Offer and John Pugh, the vocalist and drummer of the New York dance-punk band who go by the moniker !!!, are on a mission to liberate butts everywhere, but right now they're hungry. It's a sunny spring day and they're sitting in an Ebisu bar and promoting their debut album, "Louden Up Now."

A woman from their record company dumps a basketful of convenience-store treats on the table in front of them and they dig in. Offer, a curly-haired scamp, snaps up the Pretz, those long, skinny breadstick-like things that come in every conceivable flavor.

He's complaining about the cable porn in his hotel room, specifically the use of strategic powder puffs to prevent people from seeing what they've paid to see.
