At first, our inner disaffected teenager kind of recoiled at the idea of edgy nineties band Sonic Youth appearing on consumer-porn soap Gossip Girl, even if it is our favorite show ever. But looking at this picture of Thurston Moore, Chace Crawford, and Ed Westwick, all looking totally comfortable and compatible, like none of them has ever shot heroin into his eyeballs or anything like that, makes us feel like its not that weird. If it were H.R. from the Bad Brains, that would be weird. But this? Fine. [Rolling Stone]
