Whirly Ball Makes Death Cab A Better Band

posted by Matt on June 16th, 2008 in Death Cab For Cutie, Music, Television

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE have been picked to be a 52/52 artist on MTV. Meaning for a week straight, clips of the band will air in between programs on the (former) music channel.

Rather than just air some live performances, the band decided to record a few clips of them performing at Whirly Ball recreation center in Washington. We know they have a sense of humor by seeing clips of Ben’s side project, Just Jazzin’ but watching this clip where Ben “Stretch” Gibbard explains to us Whirly Ball makes Death Cab a better band, might take things to a new level.

Seeing Chris Walla walk around in a cast, he’s either acting well or things might have gotten a bit too competetive on those bumper cars.
