“The Catskills is the new Williamsburg. There, I said it! There is more artisanal pork being butchered there than anywhere else.” — John Flansburgh of the great, They Might Be Giants.

Read the rest of the interview over at Gothamist where Flansburgh discusses the band’s new album “Join Us“,  Witch House and the Williamsburg Waterfront –among other things.  And, as if we need to remind you, They Might Be Giants will play the Waterfront for free next Friday the 29th with Comedian Eugene Mirman kicking things off.

For now we leave you with TMBG’s first ever music video for the song “Put Your Hand Inside the Puppet head” which was shot at the Williamsburg Waterfront in 1986,  presumably before artisanal pork was being butchered in its vicinity.
