If you've got that kind of money lying around and are hankering to lay down that song you wrote on your battered guitar at college, here's the tab at some of the world's top facilities. London...
...first glance, Knipfing, Lamont’s lead singer, seems the usual indie rock character who might not feel out of place in Harvard’s own Lamont; trucker cap, vintage t-shirt, the requisite tattoos and appropriately intellectual glasses.
