They covered Bob Dylan’s 1983 Infidels song “Jokerman,” a song title that bears the same name of Koenig’s latest “Time Crisis” podcast episode where he interviewed the designer behind the late ’90s typeface Jokerman. Vampire Weekend also did a rendition of the Honeycombs’ “Have I The Right” and played “Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa” from their self-titled 2008 debut album. Watch it all below.
