Pop Culture Embedded in Pop Culture

In tonight's Gilmore Girls re-run, the girls are planning their summer backpacking trip through Europe and are using Rick Steves' "Europe Through the Backdoor" as one of their travel guides. Emily (that's the grandmother, for those of you having trouble keeping track) even read an excerpt from it. Then I remembered that in a couple episodes I saw late last year The Dandy Warhols were referenced - twice. I'm pretty sure The Dandys would be more amused by their appearance on The Gilmore Girls than Rick would, before being completely annoyed.
