Flutterby™! : Cops trolling musicians

Slate: The Boston police go undercover on the Internet to stop the city’s most dreaded scourge: DIY indie-rock shows.

You don’t have to be a local-music Agent Smith, though, to tell that some of these emails smell pretty fishy. “Hey there, local P native here,” wrote one probable imposter to a local band, (who probably meant to type JP, slang for Jamaica Plain).  “What is the Address for the local music show tonight?"

Via MeFi, which goes both in the "let's mock the cops trying to be kewl" direction and in the "hey, house concert attendees tend to actually care about the music" space.
