Poll question: The Polyphonic Spree: Am I the only person freaked out about these guys?
Or what?



Okay, an all-white, secular choir... No big deal. But I get this whole freaky, cult vibe from these guys: Like if Marshall Applewhite decided to get on the mic.




What do you think?

2. ask Crispini. I'm just saying
saw them in concert last summer. They filled the Botanic Gardens. I would say they have a local following for certain.

It was a fun concert.

Still haven't established the freakiness level, however.
