Badly Drawn Boy - when I first heard of him, I assumed it was some electronic act.

we aren't talking about Radiohead, and if you ever saw a room full of your average GBV fan you would not call them hipsters

Actually, I think people have taken them fairly well, although it still amazes me how you can form such a strong opinion based on 1 night
