Wow, who new Brian Williams was so hip to digital music and hot indie bands? Follow this link to watch him give Deer Tick props as one of his favorite bands in a clip filmed backstage at the Rachel Ray show. Rachel, with her annual SXSW bashes, and Brian Williams, with his massive iTunes playlists, are really making us think big media moguls are hip beyond their day jobs!
