Band Arrested After Blocking 101 Freeway
“In what is believed to be an effort at promotion, authorities said that members of a band called Imperial Stars blocked all but one lane of the southbound 101 with a large truck advertising the band. The group has a song called “Traffic Jam 101.”
Let me state emphatically for the record, this is not rock and roll. This is world class douchbaggery, and with LA traffic, it should be a hanging offense.If you saw this incident and your instinct involved extending your pinky, index finger, and/or thumb into the air, please get the garden shears out of the shed, because you need to be taught a fucking lesson.
Imperial Stars? Are you kidding me? Look at those idiots on the side of that truck. They would have been stale as an SNL sketch much less as an attempt at an actual band.
Counterpoint.
I really want to believe this is an elaborate joke. It has to be right? I mean look at them. They’re one face painting session away from being a juggalo.
Granted, all this press is leading them to their homepage, which has a mission statement about helping homeless children. But did they have to do it in such a fuckhole manner? Probably not. They also now require an email address to read more about them. Protip: putting “fuckyou@fuck.com” works.
