Living in interesting times...

I bought a CD today that had a sticker on it that said "as heard on the iPOD COMMERCIAL".

Now, personally, I have never seen that commercial, or if I did, I didn't know it was this band, the Gorillaz, who in itself is a made up band of animated characters who play music, created by Damon Albarn and a guy who goes by the name "Danger Mouse."

Obviously, a guy like me is fascinated by the concept of an animated rock band, which is why I bought their first album, but I liked it enough to buy the second.

Is it selling out if you created fictional characters to do so?

Kooky.
