I saw a YouTube video (YouTube had just been invented) of a bunch of kids (in 2006 these were people my age, ie, 16-18) really enthusiastically busking in a mall and drawing a huge crowd. The performance went lightly viral (before viral meant 'being on the regular TV news that evening'), to the extent that they ended up releasing a little self-produced album. I found the youtube performance charming enough and I had the spare change from my Wal-Mart job at the time and I also had enough experience supporting my friends' crackpot band projects so I was like "why not."
So I buy the album, it's all right but doesn't really match the magic of the YouTube clip, that's fine, whatever, the future is ahead of us, time passes. I never hear about the band again.
