No, you idiot, that wasn’t Bonnie Prince Billy at the Pitchfork Festival in Chicago yesterday. As far as I know Mr. Billy has yet to receive his cosmetology license, and I’m sure he would charge a lot more than $2 to introduce the business end of his scissors to the sweaty heads of Sebadoh fans.
I don’t know who that maniacal barber is, but he sure was fun to watch.
UPDATE: Thanks to eagle-eyed, highly informed readers (see comments), I now know that the barber in question is Tim Harrington, singer of Les Savvy Fav, who apparently also was generously administering massages at the festival. Major dude!


tim harrington?
Hmm, don’t know. Is Tim a Chicagoan?
Pretty sure it’s the singer of Les Savvy Fav. Fantastic.
Yes, Tim Harrington of Les Savvy Fav! Thanks folks!!
