Of course our name refers to the fact that we met in Somerville. But, it also refers to a ridiculous cable company billboard with headshots of three too cool for school twenty-somethings. An asian guy with chunky glasses, a white girl with mini pony tails, and some other forgettable but hip guy. Across the top of the billboard it read, "What's Up, Somerville."
We then used that phrase to describe all people that tried too hard to fit the image of cool, hip urban dweller. Many "What's Up, Somerville" people could be found at art gallery openings, coffee houses, and underground indie rock clubs.
The complication is that we wanted and still want to be a bit "what's up somerville" too. So, what qualifies as What's Up Somerville? You'll see!
