Maybe it was just too early in the morning for Billy Bob Thornton but what a hilarious and cringe-worthy appearance (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJWS6qyy7bw) on Q.  Needless to say, ego is a big part of being a performer, whether your’e an actor or a musician, but most are able to do a slightly better job of masking their delusions of grandeur than the Joaquin-like Billy Bob.  I’m not the biggest fan of Jian Ghomeshi, but I thought he did an admiral job of dealing with the supremely uncooperative BBT.  I felt badly for his bandmates as their efforts to plug their music were hijacked by a BBT whose ego overwhelmed any sense of irony, as he proceeded to bring more attention to the very thing he had wanted to avoid discussing – his acting career – which Jian had made a cursory and obligatory mention of in his intro.   Hopefully, their music stands on its own because it will be hard for new listeners to take them seriously.  Good job, Billy Bob.
