John Lennon New York City sleeveless shirt
John Lennon was in a buzzband called The Beatles. He once wore a classic sleeveless New York City shirt.

Charlie Sheen is a human meme from 2k11, but also used to be a relevant actor. He wore a sleeved New York City shirt on his classic interview with Piers Morgan.

Nikolai Fraiture is the sexy hot bass player from The Strokes. He wore a sleeveless New York City shirt on The Strokes' Saturday Night Live performance, stealing all of the attention from the other band members. [link]

It's so weird how indie music is going mainstream, and every blog is starting to cover indie celebs like they are mainstream celebs, doing our best to photograph them, even when it seems like they deserve a bit more privacy. But I guess if you're getting paid with that much buzzbucks, you sorta have to understand that it 'comes with the territory.' In these EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS, we see Noah Lennox (stage name: Panda Bear) sharing intimate moments with his wife Fernanda Pereira, his daughter Nadja Lennox, and their son (commonly reffered to as Panda Bear Jr.). While some might say these photos 'crossed the line', we also see a tender side to the AnCo-frontman that might make u want to build 4 walls and adobe slabs ever more than ever now.

Reading Panda Bear Jr. a bed time story.

Intimate moment between Noah Lennox, his wife, Fernanda Pereira, and their daughter Nadja.

Panda Bear Jr. 'acts up' and is put in 'time out.'

Fernanda Pereira tries to get Panda Bear Jr. ready for school.

Panda departs from Portugal to go on tour.

Do Noah and Fernanda seem happy?
Do their kids look happy + healthy?
Is it sad when Panda has to go on tour?
Will these tender moments help us to 'understand' and 'appreciate' TOMBOY /help him to gain 0.5+ bonus p4k points?
Do you think Panda Bear's spawn will become the next generation of relevant buzz humans in 10-20 years?
Will Panda Bear's kids be more creative than Bjork's kids?
Will Panda Bear's kids become more relevant than Sofia Coppola + Thomas Mars' children?
Who will be the more relevant spawn created by 2 relevant present-day humans?

The Strokes bass player ruins the Strokes' collective brand by wearing a sleeveless shirt on SNL

The Strokes were on Saturday Night Live, and it was potentially good, but also potentially 'hella boring.' The only real shocking part of the performance was the decision of The Strokes bass player Nikolai Fraiture to wear a sleeveless shirt. I guess maybe he is just trying to ride summer-style chilwaves. Usually members of bands wear 'jackets' and other shit that 'makes them look kewl' on stage even when they are playing on TV because they are trying to just 'look how a band is supposed to look.'

Did Nikki ruin the Strokes collective personal brand, or did he take his own personal brand 2 such great heights?

Is Nikolai Fraiture the 'most alt' member of The Strokes?
Should Nikki 'go solo'?

Here is the other song they played called “Life Is Simple In The Moonlight” which seems 'okay', but still really couldn't take my eyes off Nikolai and his sleeveless shirt.

Are sleeveless shirts gonna be 'big' this summer?
Should I wear a sleeveless shirt to Coachella?
Are tanktops 'effing dead'?
Do u have a mancrush on Nikolai?
Did he 'ruin' The Strokes brand, or will his sleeveless shirt be the alt touch that 'saves' our perception of The Strokes progressiveness/kewlness?

Did the Strokes 'crush it' on SNL? Or were they 'whatever'?
can the Strokes replace the Kings of Leon as the #1 bro band in the USA?
Are sleeves on t-shirts gonna be 'so out' this summer? [via the slarf]

Laters yall. Gotta go buy a sleeveless shirt for Southby/Coachella/Bonnyroo/Lollypalooze/_____.
