Fun facts from this week's New Yorker: Phoenix bought the Harrison 4032 solid-state recording console on which Michael Jackson's Thriller was made and used it to mix their upcoming album, Bankrupt. The console was apparently on eBay; Thomas Mars told the magazine that "the most mysterious part to me was that no one else — no nerd or music engineer or memorabilia freak — seemed to want it." They paid $17,000, which they will surely recoup when their album goes infinity-platinum just like Thriller. That's how it works, right?
