Bao Nguyen checked out Thao Nguyen (no relation) at her show "with The Get Down Stay Down" at Knitting Factory in NYC last night (Feb 4, 2008). I didn't talk to him for long, but he said the show was good. Thao reminds him (and many others) of Cat Power, and Thao even told a story at the show about running into Cat Power (Chan) at a radio appearance earlier that day. More of his photos below....

That's a lot of Nguyen!

The Nguyens are like the Smiths of Vietnam. Ain't such a coincidence!

"no relation my ass."
40% of Vietnamese have this last name and it's the 57th most common last name in the United States.

Including the Prince of Poker, the great Scotty Nguyen.

"The Nguyens are like the Smiths of Vietnam"
The Smiths of Vietnam are a really good band. Vietnamese Morrissey is not as big of a jerk as the English one.
ps - The Viet Marr is in the Thai Modest Mouse
