I'm listening to the Jesus Lizard again; today it's the live album Show. David Yow's stage raps kill me. For instance, just check out "Killer McHann." That's got to be the best song intro of all time. Way better than Paul Stanley's tired-ass "Love Gun" intro. But even better is the part at the end of the track. I beg you to listen to it. If you can't understand what's being said, here's a transcript:

Yow: I say witness! Mac's monitor has, uh, joined the realms of the nonexistent.

random audience yahoo: Is that like Nietzsche?

Yow: Yeah, that's like . . . that's like Nietzsche. That's like I need-cha fuckin' . . . I need-cha fuckin' mouuuth full o' my cock . . .

Something about his delivery just slays me. The song itself is pretty fun, too.

Down is my favorite album. Imagine that I saw the lizard at lupo's with maybe 20 people there... Yow stagedived anyway....
crazy bastard.

-p

Yikes! Did he do the "tight and shiny" thing?

I gotta check out Down again. I have it, but for some reason, when I reach for a Jesus Lizard disc, I almost always pick up Goat.

"Pick up Goat." Sounds like a twisted children's game. Oh well. Enjoy this picture of the "tight and shiny."

dang, yo.

Indeed.

hey dude, I'm on SaintClaire's friend list. Saw her recent post mentioning you so I looked at your profile and see that you went to 'State. My dad went there. I grew up in Jackson and have friends who went there

Right on! It's not too often that I hear from people with MSU connections! I used to go to Jackson a lot for football games (back in the days when MSU had some "home" games there). I'm actually thinking about disavowing the ol' alma mater after our early exit from March Madness. :)

Oh, and my pop grew up in Houston, but he went to the hated UT. Did you go to A&M?

I spent one summer at College Station and definitely am an Aggie at heart.

concerning state, I graduated from HS in 1990, I'm suspecting we may know some of the same people. were you in a frat?

Nah, I wouldn't have been caught dead in a fraternity, and if I'd tried to enter one, I probably would have been shot. ;) I'm sure we probably do know some of the same people, but for some reason I can't think of anyone I knew from Jackson. Most of the people I hung with around that time were either Starkville natives or coast rats!

Does Read Hendon, Skipper Gilbert, Stephen Edgar, or Brian Quarles ring a bell?

Hmmm--nope, don't think so. My memories of that time period are pretty hazy. :)

I have that album. He sounds like he's going to lose it before the band plays Killer McHann.

I know, it's awesome. At lunch today I was driving around campus and playing that part at full blast with the windows down and a look on my face like I wasn't paying any attention whatsoever to what was coming out of my speakers. :)

It also freaks me out that he dedicates a song to his parents, who have supposedly flown in from Texas and are "back by the pool table."

I'm guessing Debbie Harry and David Byrne weren't really there, either.

I'd forgotten that part, but they actually might have been! It was a CBGBs 20th-anniversary shindig, I think.

When I was in high school I listened to that album a lot, and adapted that very exchange for use as a pick-up line for snotty girls at my school:

"You know, you've got a great smile. But it would be a lot wider with a mouth full of my cock."

Such behavior was only partially responsible for my immense popularity with the ladies of Canton.

Oh man, that's great! It only stands to reason that the worldly women of Canton would be able to appreciate such charm.
