From BoingBoing.net:

"Infringing teenager's awesome They Might Be Giants video"

"Dave Logan is a high school senior who just finished his latest animation, which is a music video for They Might Be Giants' excellent song ' Bloodmobile.' This is a really excellent video, and I hope we can all appreciate a good science song. I think this is pretty in-fringe-ified, but I imagine it's just a matter of time before it's available on the Giants' site. What's the status of student work and fair use anyway?"

From Billboard.com (3/17/05): "They Might Be Giants will be the subject of their first anthology on 'A User's Guide to They Might Be Giants: Melody, Fidelity, Quantity.' Due May 3 via Elektra/Rhino, the package features 29 songs packed onto a single disc, including late '80s/early '90s staples such as 'Purple Toupee,' 'Particle Man,' 'Birdhouse In Your Soul,' 'Istanbul (Not Constantinople)' and 'Ana Ng'.

Also rounded up is 'Boss Of Me,' the band's theme song for the Fox comedy 'Malcolm in the Middle,' plus the track 'Dr. Evil' from 'Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me.'

On the heels of last month's release of the family-oriented CD/DVD 'Here Comes the ABCs,' the group is playing a handful of in-store performances this month in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle."
