Band Math

McSweeney’s band math.

Weezer – Air Supply = Grateful Dead

Chuck Klosterman works out a statistic to figure out the worth of any musician in any band.

My initial answer to this query was, “Of course not, that’s stupid, it will never work, it’s antithetical to the very concept of creative endeavor, art is by nature ephemeral and impossible to quantify, and there isn’t even anyone who wants this to statistic to exist.”

But then we did it anyway.
