(in case you hadn't already heard about this)

I am friends with the Decemberists on myspace, and because of this (who needs pitchfork eh?) I have become aware of an epic battle that has been raging between the band and Stephen Colbert. Apparently they have ripped off Colbert's green-screen challenge, the one where he was flailing around with a light saber and fans supplied the background, and are currently running just such a contest to provide the background of the music video for their new (and not all that good) single "O Valencia!" In an act of revenge Colbert has now challenged viewers to incorporate the original light saber footage into the msuic video. "Let's see how well they perform their trademark brand of hyper-literate prog rock when I'm slicing off their legs at the knee," quoth he. The decembrists promptly issued a counter statement, claiming that Colbert had in fact stolen the idea of a light saber battle from the Decemberists, providing as proof a link to a youtube video of the band live in San Fransisco staging, sure enough, but not sure why, a light saber battle! Well anyway, they ended up challenging Colbert to a guitar duel, including in their official statement the phrase "let's SHRED", so you know it's serious, and he has just accepted, insisting that, "I am going to jam out a solo with so many dominant sevenths and ascending pentatonic patterns it'll make Yngwie Malmsteen sound like Raffi." The battle is to take place December 20th (supposedly to give the band the home field advantage) on Colbert's show, and I for one am looking forward to it.
