No, not with our kid! What do you think we are? It did not involve children. Explain, please. I was the paint loader of David's ass - and I say that because I want a little credit. Frankly, I don't think he could have painted as well [without me]. What did you paint? You don't exactly paint with your ass. Well, really, you do paint with your ass. Oh, what you do is load up the person's buttocks. I don't mean "load up." Let me say, just pat it in a general area and use different color schemes. You can imagine what will happen when you take the canvas and sit on it. And when he did sit on it, some were the perfect sit, some of them we spanked a little bit, no smearing because that didn't seem like such a good idea. We put them up for an animal rights auction, [the slogan of] which is "Meat. Don't eat it, paint with it." Did the paintings sell? I think we got 3,500 bucks for one. Did you paint also? No, no. I loaded, he assed.

Granted that it's probably 99.9% crap, but I'm sure that >there's some interesting stuff to be found. Not necessarily good, but >interesting. I have an outstanding Pickwick record called THE EARTHY SIDE. It's a collection of bawdy folk songs, performed by an anonymous crew that call themselves something like "The Society For Preservation of Prurient, Obscene, And Scatological Material In Its Original Form" (I'm sure that's not exactly right, but the record's at home.) Unlike most records of this ilk, the performances are quite musically accomplished, in a style that would be too genteel for most folk music but in this case accentuates the humor perfectly. And while it's clearly completely uncensored, the raunch is always leavened with wit. What's more, it comes in a gatefold sleeve with liner notes by Truman Capote. In short, it's the Rolls Royce of dirty records. I also have a bootleg copy of "The Ostrich", Lou Reed's single for Pickwick. It's not as funny as you'd think from reading about it. In fact, it's nearly unintelligible. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jul 2001 16:14:38 -0400 From: Dan McCarthy Subject: Re: [loud-fans] =?iso-8859-1?Q?Re:_=5Bloud-fans=5D_Re:_Re:_=5Bloud-fans=5D_RIP_ =?iso-8859-1?Q?Mimi=5FFar=3F=3D_i=F1a?= At 09:23 AM 7/20/01 -0700, Andrew Hamlin wrote: > >Since, as we all know, it's important for posts to this list to have Loud > >Family content, I thought I'd point out that further digging around this > >site reveals the existence of a Gentle Giant tribute album, put together > >by members of the GG mailng list (ya think they talk about Scott Miller > >much?)...which features Mike Keneally, guitar guy on "Nice When I Want > >Something." > > >Keneally's also on a new album I like and didn't expect to: Steve Vai's >ALIVE IN AN ULTRA WORLD. Anthems for a world that just might need'em. Totally unaware of any Scott Miller relationship, I picked up Kenneally's "Nonkertompf" earlier this year.

To be honest, I didn't like it that much- > it struck me as very Zappa-esque (Frank, not Dweezil). Not surprisingly, since Mike Keneally played with Zappa. His appearance on "Nice When I Want Something" greatly expanded the possibilities in the six degrees of Scott Miller separation game, so we can now go from Scott to Captain Beefheart, not to mention both Moon and Dweezil Zappa, in just three moves. To that end, his appearance is almost as important as Earl Slick's appearance on "Shark Pretty"!

(ns) >However, "Excerpts from a Teenage Opera" didn't come out until July of '67, >so the likelihood that it was an influence on my least-favorite Beatles >record, which came out in June, is pretty remote. Aha, I misremembered. According to Ian MacDonald's REVOLUTION IN THE HEAD (if you haven't read it--"Well, get on it then!"), McCartney cited "Opera" as an influence on side two of ABBEY ROAD. It was thirty-two years ago this month, Andy A man lay sprawled across three entire seats in the posh theater. When the usher came by and noticed this, he whispered to the man, "Sorry, sir, but you're only allowed one seat." The man groaned but didn't budge. The usher became impatient. "Sir, if you don't get up from there I'm going to have to call the manager." Again, the man just groaned, which infuriated the usher who turned and marched briskly back up the aisle in search of his manager. In a few moments, both the usher and the manager returned and stood over the man. Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move him, but with no success. Finally, they summoned the police. The cop surveyed the situation briefly then asked, "All right buddy, what's our name?" "Sam," the man moaned. "Where ya from, Sam?" With pain in his voice Sam replied "the balcony."
