A Jimmy Kimmel segment in which interviewers at SXSW ask festival-goers about made-up bands, and many people confidently claim to know and like them.

For what it's worth, there is also a hilarious sample of the 'hipster' population in this Youtube video (Jimmy Kimmel 0:53 mark) ▶ this video Of course interviewees in this video are probably paid actors playing dumb, but boy it doesn't the stereotype ...
