Taco News Roundup ~ July 1, 2008

11:39 AM PDT on July 1, 2008

The above video is one of about 100 unofficial videos for LA-based band Never Heard of It's "Taco Song" which is still sweeping the internets. The band barely mentions the song anywhere on their website or myspace, so we don't know much about their connection to the taco lifestyle. Anyway, enjoy this week's roundup!
