"People under-estimate how much Black Lips play with balls."

From Pitchfork.com

"If you've ever wanted to see a dude in a lobster costume execute an earthshaking 360 dunk over a popular rapper, you just might get your chance on May 1. That's when Converse's Band of Ballers basketball tournament goes down in Atlanta. The three-on-three tournament includes Georgia rock bands the Black Lips and of Montreal, as well as rappers like Jay Electronica, OJ da Juiceman, Pill, Sean Price, Donnis, Shawty Lo, Jermaine Dupri, and defending champion Jim Jones.

Black Lips have pledged to donate the $5000 they'll make from the event to Auditory Verbal Centre, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to the rehabilitation of deaf children. They've also challenged the other participants to donate their fees to charity.

Both of Montreal and the Black Lips have made videos hyping up their participation in the tournament. Neither one should really fill anyone with confidence that either band will be able to take on the elite Jones Family team, which, according to MVRemix, features former Washington Wizards player God Shammgod. You do, however, learn that Cole Alexander calls himself "Crazy Craze the Nightmare Man", so that's something. Both of those videos are below."
