Ed was doing a sponsor bit, and Johnny was like "Oh yeah, if that's so great, why don't you have some of it right now?", knowing that the audience didn't realize that it wasn't real ice cream. Ed, being a dupe and not wanting to piss off a network sponsor, started eating it. Johnny Carson must've been a mean son of a bitch.Brushbackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14439601217855895036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239910173455706271.post-81189996544195891152012-04-08T00:36:29.663-04:002012-04-08T00:36:29.663-04:00"4.

That "pie" was actually a foil plate filled with shaving cream."<br /><br />I have heard that TV pies are always shaving cream as whipped cream would melt under the lights. But concert pies? Those should be REAL PIES. Remember that Pac-Men show with the cake? Real! Confectionery war paint! But then there was the time somebody had the bright idea of slitting open that bag of cement and cement smoke was all in our eyes ears noses and throats. I'm surprised Newtown Teen Center had us, or anybody else, back after that.Jerehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13448619048422750447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239910173455706271.post-1835261924715054082012-04-07T16:40:57.263-04:002012-04-07T16:40:57.263-04:00Yeah, it's no big deal with Bill, I just threw...Yeah, it's no big deal with Bill, I just threw it out there because I thought it was funny. You should see some of the looks I give people when they walk up to me and say that they used to read a zine that I wrote 20 years ago. Well, actually, it's only happened once.Brushbackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14439601217855895036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239910173455706271.post-79895973302551823552012-04-07T16:36:36.364-04:002012-04-07T16:36:36.364-04:00Okay, so let's clear the air here.

Chalk it up to an off night?<br /><br />2. The quality of several Little Seizures Youtube videos is due to the husband and wife who run Go Ape/Fancy that are putting out our 7" being responsible for making them. The Super 8 one is someone else, as are the Guitar Wolf show ones, but yeah, the "pie" one is all Go Ape as is the Don Pedro gig that opens with a shot of the subway.<br /><br />3. Yes! Both bands are putting out 7"s. Mutant Genes' will be out hopefully next week or so before our late April tour. Little Seizures, as mentioned above, will be out on Go Ape/Fancy, probably around late May or early June.<br /><br />4. That "pie" was actually a foil plate filled with shaving cream. You have no idea how much that burns in the old eye socket. Fortunately my friend John who did it also got himself and was unaware of the inedible nature of the pie contents he was shoving into our faces.tommy perkinsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239910173455706271.post-16780305758691657812012-04-07T14:40:08.153-04:002012-04-07T14:40:08.153-04:00Yeah, they actually have a handful of YouTube clip...Yeah, they actually have a handful of YouTube clips that are all done pretty fancy (one was shot in Super 8, or was mocked-up to look like Super 8 at least). I wonder who's doing them.Brushbackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14439601217855895036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239910173455706271.post-12551813865202324652012-04-07T14:24:47.449-04:002012-04-07T14:24:47.449-04:00Watched a clip of Little Seizures playing a few so...Watched a clip of Little Seizures playing a few songs on YouTube. There's an inflatable banana and then T-Perk gets hit with a pie. Weirder is that it's a multi-camera production.Jerehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13448619048422750447noreply@blogger.com
