Amir and I got to interview The Lonely Island this past week. It was incredibly intimidating since, similar to Amir, I have been a fan for a very long time. In fact, I was an avid Lonely Island visitor before I ever was a regular to CollegeHumor.

One cool behind the scenes thing that will give you an idea of how nice and down to earth Jorma, Akiva and Andy are is this: When we got to the interview room the lights were incredibly dim and shooting was going to be next to impossible. As we were standing around trying to figure out a way to brighten the room the guys got up themselves and found a way to angle the ceiling lights towards their seats to brighten the shot. The cameras weren’t rolling, It was something they totally didn’t have to do.

I don’t usually ask, but this would be especially cool for both me and Amir if you’d digg it.
