I e-mailed a few of my favourite bands asking if I could have permission to use their music in my next animation yesterday- and today, I got a response from none other than my FAVOURITE band, Gogol Bordello!
As soon as I got the message, I started converting my mp4a Gogol song into mp3 so I could put it into Flash. I'm that excited. This is gon' be awesome.
Anyways, here's a picture of the e-mail I got back, signed "gb." Pretty cool. I wonder if anyone in the band actually read it? Probably not. But it doesn't hurt to imagine so.

I have never heard of Gogol Bordello.
hoorayformeallright
Just about nobody has. They're a Gypsy Punk band, which means they fuse traditional Gypsy Music with punk music. Which means they're amazing.
Rolling Stone said their latest album was... 17th best of the year or something? Whatever that means. If you like punk music at all, chances are you'll love them. Even if you don't love punk music.
