SUNDAY, MARCH 15: Well kudos to 98.7 FM in Los Angeles for having the very good taste to play our first single "Happy Happy Happy" on their New Music Show tonight, (coming after such little-known bands as U2, Depeche Mode and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs), but they got our name wrong. We are certianly not happy people now... Ah well. Still very exciting to share the airwaves with Bono... Visit Star 98.7
