Popularity rank 1 #352. Unofficial representation

March 18, 2010

JOEL: Listen, I can't OFFICIALLY represent you, but here's some free advice: the real single is the second to last song in your set.

JAMES: Dude, why don't you just UNofficially represent us?
JOEL: Can I... DO that?

JAMES: Why NOT?
JOEL: Wow... it'd be like I was ACTUALLY in the music business.

JAMES: You ARE in the music business.
JOEL: No no. I'm in A&R.
