Check out the Brook-Veg comments section

This was my favorite:
"so this is the best anti-folk has to offer, eh? no wonder nobody likes it"

(PS I was there and it was pretty darn fun.)

Yeah. You gotta love that

Yeah. You gotta love that hipster crowd obsessed with calling out wanna be hipsters. It can't get any hipper than that.

You're supposed to be

You're supposed to be aggressively and publicly against them thus securing your place amongst the truly hip. It's like reverse psychology or a secret handshake....

we're all hipsters

the labels New Yorkers tend to place on each other is one thing, but to most family members and friends who don't live in NYC or a cultural area of a major metropolitan area, if you're playing music in NYC, gigging, touring, playing festivals, releasing records...you might as well be a member of the Arcade Fire. I'm being hyperbolic, but you know what I mean? All of us are "hip" to way more cool bands, albums, places to play and underground events than folks who don't travel within or tap into the same channels that we do. Within these walls, most hipster name calling is all black pots and kettles.

I like Kerouac's hipsters, man. They were really about something, y'know. Like, really about something man.

Yes. I wrote this.

Yeah, the idea that somebody

Yeah, the idea that somebody is commenting on the music news in a website called Brooklyn Vegan is calling somebody else a hipster kind of shows how meaningless the term has become.
