We'll do it live.
Broadcasting from downtown Los Angeles.
We'll do it live.
Fuck it.
It's the More Music Radio Pod.
Do it live.
I'll write it and we'll do it live.
On skidrow.la.
Fucking thing sucks.
In 5, 4, 3.
We're gonna dump that.
That's a radio term for when you fuck up, you just cut it out.
It's Thursday, April 21st.
It's the same thing.
It's the More Music Radio Pod.
I'm a little shaken up again because we have Karen Centerfold and she's doing the same shit that she did the last time.
Shaking everybody up.
Trying to whip everybody into shape.
We showed up late.
Again, I got a chronic problem of showing up to places late and had to pick up Karen again.
I wanted to have a three-way, with Vince and his girlfriend in the car.
She just lives around the corner from me.
We had to come down here and get Matt Teardrop, the incredible, famous Matt Teardrop of Manhattan Murder Mystery.
We have Manhattan Murder Mystery in studio tonight.
He is high-class white trash.
I want to tell you that we did a show at Spaceland, which is now Satellite in Silver Lake.
We did an incredible live show before a million people.
It looked like at the Sunset Jubilee.
That was great.
Here he is.
Here's Matt Teardrop.
Everybody give him a round of applause.
I'm just going to kick back.
We want to welcome Matt from Manhattan Murder Mystery.
We have the whole band here tonight.
This is episode three of the More Music Radio Pod.
Last week we had Arlo from Mr. Tease Bowl.
You guys know Arlo.
You know Arlo, right?
Yes.
He was here last week and it went, you know, not as crazy, but it was good in a different way.
And we have some clips of Arlo from Mr. Tease Bowl.
And here's Arlo talking about Mr. Tease when he started.
Good job, everybody.
Joe Tease, do you know what any of these dogs do?
To this day, I do not.
But that's kind of pretty much how it started.
We started doing shows twice a week and then a lot of bands started wanting to play so we started doing three nights a week and then a lot of would-be drunk people wanted to be stars so we started doing karaoke and then music four nights a week.
Pretty soon it was seven nights a week and it was fun.
I got to see, you know, a lot of bands every week, a lot of live music and real cool people.
Right.
And whiskey.
We love Arlo.
It was cool having Arlo.
I think Arlo might be calling in.
He's working at Tease right now but he said that in between sets that he would try to give a call to see if he can kind of chime in.
Is somebody playing at Mr. Tease now?
Yeah, like, probably like three or four people are playing at Mr. Tease and that's total because Mr. Tease is a little different but, you know, we always, every once in a while like to go down and say hello to Arlo.
But so he'll be calling back.
Arlo's a funny guy and he said this last week.
He said this last week.
He said this last week.
I played Little League Baseball right down there at Montecito Park and we used to go up on the hill and smoke weed.
I mean, the other guys did.
I would just like, you know, tell them you shouldn't do that and stuff and try to talk them out of it.
Not inhaling and stuff.
Come on, guys.
We got the big game.
We got to stay in shape.
It helps you focus on the ball, I think.
I don't know.
We're not going to make it if you guys are going to get high.
Kids do listen.
Still don't.
Still don't.
I like that one.
Oh, man.
He also talked about some of the bands that played at T's and there were some, you know, pretty well-known names that played at T's.
Yeah, like who?
Who played there that's that well-known?
Besides the Parkers, Manhattan Murder Mystery, the Mormons.
Right.
There's been others.
But, like, right now, he mentions his experience with Steve Malcomus from Pavement and here it is.
Hold on.
I got it.
Bebeck played there.
Patrick's trying to say in his way, in his way, he's trying to say Yes, that's true.
Leaf blower thing, Beck with the leaf blower.
But he doesn't piss me off quite as much as Me?
the guy from Highway or Cement.
Oh.
Pavement.
Oh.
Passport.
Passport.
Yeah, the singer from that time Billy Milkman.
Yeah, yeah.
I almost socked him.
Really?
Is he a jerk?
I don't really want to talk about him now.
We should.
What happened?
I don't know.
He is no longer welcome at Mr. T's Bowl.
Let's just leave it at that.
Okay.
What happened?
What happened?
What happened?
What happened?
No comment.
What happened?
Steve Malcomus was quite rude, quite arrogant, and just, I didn't really like him.
But he's handsome.
Yeah.
And he was a friend of Nell's client who's a friend of mine, so Nell's put him on a bill and apologized after her lesson.
And I said, don't bring him back.
And he said, I won't.
Really?
And so far so good.
Some people are not welcome back to Mr. T's Bowl.
Yeah.
Unfortunately, at that time, I had no idea who he was.
And one of my sons goes, Dad, Steve Malcomus, he's kind of like, you know, kind of famous.
He's kind of famous.
But I'm like, you know, I don't care.
He can't come back to Mr. T.
Fuck him.
Even if he pays the price books, man.
Fuck that guy.
I'd comb his hair for a dollar.
Okay.
Here.
Do you want to comb my hair?
Is that what you're saying?
I would.
A lot of people ask.
Arlo is handsome, too.
He's going to cost you more than a dollar.
Well, we are going to play a couple more songs and try to get back into this thing.
We'll be right back.
Do you have any pavement?
Arlo's cool.
We actually got to get, like, really close to Arlo.
We lived with them for a few years.
And, man, the guy just has, like, all kinds of stories.
He played on the Bruins.
Fuck.
I mean, he has a story for...
The hockey team?
I think he played on the basketball team and probably even maybe the baseball team.
But, yeah, like, knowing Arlo has probably been, like, one of the highlights of doing this playing in a band thing.
You know, there's, like, certain characters you meet and they kind of leave, like, an imprint in your brain.
And we love Arlo, man.
He's a fucking funny fucker.
And, you know, he's been doing this at T's, you know, pretty much, like, not getting paid too much money, you know, but he just does it because he loves Mr. T's Bowl and he loves, you know, watching, you know, really cool bands, you know, and he loves just being a part of that.
And that was the ghost of Mr. T.
He liked what I was saying and he played the harmonica.
But, yeah, and here's Arlo kind of wrapping it up on how he feels about, you know, working at Mr. T's Bowl.
May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May May at NBC and he had another experience with Miss Mary Tyler Moore.
Mary Tyler Moore cussed me out way before Kim Deal did.
What happened?
How'd you get under Mary Tyler Moore's skin?
I gave her a ticket to the Bolshoi Ballet for Bradley Tarnatoff and she said, the servant's entrance is on the side.
And I said, it's not for your servant, it's for you.
And I walked away and she was like, do you work for Bob Tyson?
I'm going to call your boss.
Is she trying to get you fired?
I got back to the office and I was kind of worried and my boss said, how'd it go at Mary Tyler Moore's?
I was like, did she call?
He goes, no.
Why, is she going to get you fired?
I said, yeah.
She says that to everybody.
She's just a bitch, don't worry about it.
And then the next week People Magazine, she was on the cover of her triumphant battle with alcoholism.
And I was like, she was like, jerk off her ass.
We were sorry, Mary.
My best to Teek.
Wow.
Yeah, man, you did a lot.
Mary Tyler Moore is no longer welcome at Mr. T's Bowl.
No, she's not.
Not even if she pays the five bucks.
Fuck her.
So, anyway, here's a clip of Arlo wrapping it up at Mr. T's.
I'll get better at this.
I'm sorry.
I'm fucking up tonight.
I love it.
I love being part of the, one of the guys.
I don't have any actual talent of my own, but it's fun just to hang out with guys.
And help them out.
Be part of it.
And I got a show tomorrow night.
Four bands.
I have no idea who's playing, but could be people I know.
Could be people I haven't met.
But it's gonna be great.
I look forward to going to work every day.
And it's a cool thing to have at any job.
If I got paid, it would be like perfect.
We love Arlo.
And he's a funny guy.
And throughout the whole show, he was coming up with some really good one-liners.
Like, he's really, like really snappy for a man his age.
And so anyway, Tony kind of sat through the whole show and got all the clips of Arlo's one-liners and he put together a piece.
And it's, this is like Arlo's kind of stand-up, like it's a stand-up routine, like in a jazz club or something.
Thank you.
Good work.
If you go both ways, you never go home alone.
If you know what I mean.
I knew a girl who was eight before she was seven.
Oh!
I golfed with a girl and she had three holes in her body.
I couldn't see too well, so I tried to read their shirt with Braille, you know.
What did Quincy Jones eat?
Quincy Jones ate crow.
Because he didn't know shit about that.
I put her to medical school.
Just came here if you're listening.
I went to AA and the sound booth at Mr. T's is 12 steps from the bar.
But, what do you think of the rectum as a whole?
I swear she had, she had ID.
She told me she was 18.
She told me twice.
She said, I'm nine.
I'm nine.
So I came in here with 18.
Now I'm going to have to drink some whiskey.
That was the first time I tried that.
That was rough.
I lived in Hyderabad.
I used to just go and sock guys in Eagle Rock.
But, you know, whiskey, I do whiskey.
I have more than two every day.
Quartz.

We have Matt.
We have Katia.
We have Laura.
We have very special guests sitting on the futon.
And it is now officially a party.
All right.
Yeah.
So, we like you guys, man.
You guys are a really good band.
And we met you guys a couple years ago over at Tease when we were doing...
Yeah.
I love you.
I think...
People Tuesdays.
Oh, yeah.
Those were the...
That was a long time ago.
That was back in the day.
I think we played two...
I think we played two Mormons residencies.
Yeah.
I think out of four, we played two.
If I remember...
If my math is right.
Yeah.
You probably played...
I think you probably played like three of them.
Yeah.
Wow.
We were probably on the same residency.
We pretty much did like a nonstop residency at Mr. Tease for like two years.
Then we did like a...
Mr. Tease residency.
What?
And then like...
I'm sorry.
Go ahead.
We didn't play there again for a long time.
Yeah.
So, tell me about...
I never asked you guys this, but like where are you guys from and like how did the band start?
Well, I'm from Virginia.
Just outside of Washington, D.C.
And I moved to L.A.
on kind of a whim.
And I can't remember...
I don't know if I answered an ad or if I put out an ad, but I met Laura from that.
And we played for a little bit with like different people.
And then we met Katia.
And ever since then...
We've been one.
Yeah.
We've been one.
That's beautiful.
I really think that's really nice.
Now, Karen wanted me...
She wrote down some more questions again like she did two weeks ago.
But she wanted to ask me, did the Southern people get down on you?
Because you like traded country western for rock and anarchy.
Well, what I was asking, Matt...
I was asking you that because I keep meeting these artists that they want me to put them on TV and they don't really have it.
And when you're in West Virginia, Matt, isn't it kind of like...
Did they try...
What Vince and me want to ask you is did they try to sort of like brainwash you to be...
a holy kind of a Rube and an Elvis Presley fan and a Willie Nelson fan instead of a Mick Jagger kind of a Sid Vicious fan?
Or what...
Well, I actually probably am more of an Elvis Presley and Willie Nelson fan than Mick Jagger and Sid Vicious to be fair.
But I don't think that's really due to brainwashing.
I think that's just due to...
Musical taste?
Musical taste.
Maybe that's just the...
the southern...
What was the question again?
The question is when you were growing up in the South, you knew you were going to come out here and be a success, which you pretty much are.
In other words, people are trying to get you record deals and stuff like that.
You're worth it.
You know how to command a show, draw a million people.
You've got the energy, your songs.
Like, I sometimes back you up in the song in the parking lot, you know?
What do you play on that?
Oh, I sing in it.
I back it up, Vince.
Do you think you might want to sing tonight?
Because I think Manhattan Murder Mystery is going to play a couple of acoustic songs here at Skid Row Studios.
Sure, I'd like to back them up.
I'm sure I'd like to back them up.
But what I'm saying is a lot of kids...
What I'm saying, Matt, is...
You might want to take a drink of water or something.
All right.
A lot of kids are...
Just take a big chug.
They get brainwashed in the South.
They get brainwashed in the South.
They get brainwashed in the South about religion and things like that.
You might want to take a breath.
You weren't brainwashed or anything like that, but can you tell us about that?
That was my question.
You know, I mean, like, you went for rock and roll.
Were they against that?
No, they were for it.
I have full support of the South.
They told me that I was doing a really good job and that...
I did.
They told me...
Everyone from the South, all 100 million of them, told me that I'm doing a great job and that, like, they're going to stop brainwashing people.
Yeah, I personally called him.
All right, next question.
Next question.
Telegraph.
Well, I wanted to ask you, like, when you're writing your songs, like, what kind of, like, music are you listening to at the time?
You know?
Like, what's in your CD player, like, when you're writing your songs?
You know?
Usually, I have some Liza Minnelli.
Right.
You bump that?
She has this really good album that the Pet Shop Boys produced.
That's true, isn't it?
You're not making that up.
No, I never lie.
That's very true.
I listen to Willie Nelson.
And Elvis.
Sometimes, usually when I write a song, I just think about what, like, Karen Centerfold has to say.
But what I'm trying to get at is, like, what kind of music influences your songwriting?
You know what I mean?
Oh, I don't know.
Yeah.
Like, who cares, right?
What's the...
What does that mean?
Right.
Yeah.
Okay.
I mean, he's asking you, he's asking you about how you write your song.
Because he's asking you about how you write your songs because you write them very originally and you write them for the times we're living in right now.
Like, what is that song you do where I back you up and I go, like that.
What is that song?
Take Out the Papers in the Trash.
Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I don't think, I don't think that's, that's not what that is.
I can't get the verse right.
I don't get the verse right.
But you've got...
Right.
You've got, you've got your songs down, you know, like how do you, what influences you to write songs like that?
Well, here's what I do.
I like, I just play my guitar a little bit.
Come up with like some, something that I think sounds pretty good to me.
Right, some crazy stuff that's going on in my head.
There's always crazy stuff going on in my head and if I can enunciate it, then into a melody, then there you go.
That's, that's the secret to Manhattan Murder Mystery.
You can do it yourself at home.
You could be as big as, you could be big stars like Manhattan Murder Mystery if you just follow that formula.
You guys have a new record.
What's it called?
Yeah.
It's self-titled.
Manhattan Murder Mystery by Manhattan Murder Mystery?
Yeah.
Oh, cool.
All right.
Well, if you guys want to call up and talk to Manhattan Murder Mystery, you can call 1-800-893-9562.
Skid Row Studios.
And there you go.
We got a call.
And hopefully, Yeah, I'd like to say something too.
What would you like to say, Karen?
Let's connect them, you know.
Let's see if somebody's on the phone.
Yeah.
That's what I said.
We could talk to them for a second.
What are you doing?
Give them a warm, sensuous evening, you know, that kind of thing.
On one of the most provocative radio stations, Skid Row.
Peter Tintle?
Peter Tintle.
Peter Tintle.
Peter Tintle.
What a name.
That is a name, right?
Right.
Peter Tintle.
That is a name.
Hi, Peter.
Sir, are you Caucasian?
Are you Caucasian?
Peter Tintle.
Peter Tintle.
I am Caucasian.
I also used to play bass for the Mormons.
Right, right.
Oh, you did?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
This little band, Way Back When.
You were one of the good ones.
Oh, really?
In the day, I was actually.
And you left us.
So what happened to that?
Yeah, what happened to that, man?
Tell them the story.
Oh, man.
Right now, you're getting an international call from our former bass player, Pete, from the Mormons, circa 2007 or 2008 or something, right?
Which one was he?
Yeah, it was like three years ago.
You're up in Canada, right?
He's so white, he got miscarried.
No, I'm in Seattle now.
Oh, yeah?
What happened to Canada?
Canada's bullshit, man.
Yeah, it's really.
I hear the mist is nice, though.
Because the story is, I mean, you were playing bass with us and then you fell in love.
You met the woman that completed your life, you know?
And you left us.
I know it was a hard decision, you know?
I didn't want you to leave.
I was actually kind of secretly hoping that something would happen, like, you know, she slipped.
I fell on somebody else's dick or something.
And then I'd be like, yes.
And I'd be like, it's okay, Pete, man.
That's just the way it is.
Well, yeah, you were going to get me arrested at one point, I remember.
Like, that was the plan, is you were going to get me arrested so that I couldn't go to Canada.
Yeah, that's right.
I was going to start, like, a high-speed chase.
But I drive a Toyota, so I can't really, I can probably get, like, to 80, 85.
Yeah, I remember we started doing a lot more mobile units.
To try and, like, get me arrested.
Right, right, yeah.
And we almost got arrested, too, a couple times.
Yeah, it was close.
You know what?
Since you've been gone, we did get arrested.
We went to South by Southwest.
Oh, that's Texas, prick.
That's what I hate about Texas.
You know, those cowboys, white trash.
Yeah, these guys.
They're joining us right now.
Yeah, we played, we actually did a mobile unit trip to South by Southwest last year.
And, you know, just to go do mobile unit.
And we drove all those hours and we got stopped in El Paso because we were hiding fruit.
And it's illegal.
It's illegal to hide fruit.
The dogs smelled our fruit and we were like, oh, shit.
Never, if you ever go to Austin, never bring drugs with you to South by Southwest.
Hell no.
Texas is a bummer.
Fucking apple haters.
Texas is a bummer anyway.
Like, it's so much bad luck and so many racists over there and so many bad luck, bummer things happen.
I went to South by Southwest a few years ago.
It was okay then, but now, like the pigs there, the cowboy pigs, they just want to bust anybody they can.
And I really encourage most people, you know, not to necessarily go there too much.
Yeah.
But I heard it was a good thing anyway this year.
It's a little bit.
Yeah, I'd like to hear from Matt.
But also tell us all about it, maybe.
All my exes live in Texas.
Hey, so Pete, how does it sound over there, man?
What are you up to?
Like, do you want to ask Manhattan Murder Mystery a question?
Actually, I want to ask Karen's cell phone a question.
Okay.
Karen Centerfold, yeah.
Oh, Centerfold, sorry about that.
Karen.
Right, right.
A lot of, you know, a lot of adult stars these days, they get molds made of their asses.
Yep.
So, like, you can, you know, you can walk into a store and, like, go and buy their ass.
It's got little suction cups on it.
Yeah.
And you, like, put it on your table and fuck it.
Oh, yeah.
Have you ever, like, made one?
No, but I dunked my boobs.
I dunked my boobs in cement.
I dunked my boobs in cement a couple times and autographed some things for some, like, more like R-rated sex movies.
I don't mean to interrupt, Karen, but he's beaming.
But just...
Right.
This is a, you know, this is theater of the mind here.
Exactly.
So we really need to explain what's going on for the listeners.
Sure, sure.
We're talking about rock and roll.
Let me do this slowly because, man, my loins.
So, yeah, I mean, I've done it with my boobs.
Like, what's your favorite adult film?
Are you asking Pete?
I don't know.
Edward Penis Hands, I guess.
Yeah, I mean...
I remember that one.
I saw that.
I saw that.
That was all right.
That was cheap.
There's a consistent one that's pretty good.
I thought it was cheap.
There's a new what?
It didn't have a good story.
There's a new Simpsons one.
Oh, there is?
Yeah.
I've seen not quite the Simpsons.
If I could just interject for a second, we have a new album out.
It's for sale in Los Angeles at Origami and Vacation.
And it comes with a download card and also a mold of my dick.
Oh, really?
Yeah, I just did that, actually.
So, like, if anyone is interested, like...
There was Record Shop Day and there's also Sex Shop Day.
You can pick it up there.
Yeah.
Oh, nice.
It's next to the fleshlights.
You guys...
So, can you still get Canadian Mist?
Or still get a Manhattan Murder Mystery record with Canadian Mist?
Our 7 Inches, right now, you can get them at King Liquor, House of Spirits, and Paul's Liquor, which is right next to Silver Lake Lounge.
We're selling our 7 Inches there for a dollar or if you buy a bottle of beer, buy a bottle of Canadian Mist whiskey, you can get them for free.
Wait a minute.
Do you mean to tell me that you can buy your record at a liquor store?
Yes.
You can buy it at three liquor stores, actually.
So, you buy a bottle of Canadian Mist...
Have you been to Paul's right next to Silver Lake Lounge?
Paul's TV?
I used to buy a bus pass.
Paul is a real treat as a person.
He's a really wonderful man to meet in your life.
He's a really wonderful man to meet in your life.
He's a really wonderful man to meet in your life.
Is Paul, he's the owner of the liquor store or what?
The one right next to Silver Lake Lounge.
Not the Silver Sun Liquor because that's like too trendy because it's like Silver Sun fuck-ups or whatever.
But like, if you go, if instead of going across the street, you stand in front of Silver Lake Lounge and take a left and go like two or three doors down and then take a right into the door, then you got Paul's Liquor and he's this like old Asian man who can't see anything.
He can't hear, can't speak English.
But he can sell you Canadian mist with a Manhattan Murder Mystery seven inch.
Yeah, he's a really great guy and he's just one of my favorite people in the world.
He is the king.
I just love him so much.
Do you?
Hey Pete, you still there?
I'm here, dude.
I miss you, man.
You should come back.
I miss you too, man.
How are you doing?
How's your thing?
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
I'm doing great.
Dude, I'm not.
Just because you stopped asking.
I'm not with her anymore, man.
Pete, Karen is, uh, uh-oh, wait a minute.
Hold on a second.
It's okay.
Karen broke the mic.
How's that?
Can you hear me?
What happened, man?
She always breaks the mic.
That's like you broke the mic last time.
Yeah, you did.
Last time you were holding the same thing.
Yeah, it's working now, I think.
I don't know.
Are you talking to it?
You remember Pete last, a couple weeks ago, she broke the mic.
What was your question?
So, Pete, what happened, man?
You broke up with your chick?
Dude, if I, if I've learned anything, it's love what you do and fuck chicks.
Oh, man.
What?
Yeah.
Fuck what?
Chick.
Dude, what happened?
What do you fuck?
Uh, you know.
Dude, do you mean that you fucking left the fucking bed to fucking be with this fucking bitch that broke your heart?
You should have grabbed me and slapped me harder than you did.
Yeah, but you're, you're bigger than I am, man.
I'm not gonna do that.
Yeah, but you should have still done something.
You should have had Patrick jump in or something.
Dude, man.
Where's Patrick?
And now you're stuck in the worst place, Seattle.
God.
Seattle's actually pretty cool, man.
Seattle sucks.
I dig it.
Does it?
Yeah, I was into the, the music scene, it ain't no HLP, that's for sure.
I was, I was into the grunge movement, like, uh, with Kurt Cobain in Seattle.
And, uh, I was into the grunge movement I knew he wouldn't, I knew he wasn't gonna make it, like, um, like, it was so obvious.
You were right.
Yeah.
Totally, man.
And Courtney Love, same thing.
She was just too much, you know?
But Karen, what do you think about this?
This guy, he, he, like, pretty much gave up, like, his life to be with this woman and, and they broke up.
What do you think about that?
How long were they, how long were they together before they broke up?
Out of curiosity.
Are you talking about Kurt Cobain?
No, I'm talking about Pete.
Pete?
Kurt Cobain.
Uh, we were, we were together, like, a couple years.
Oh.
A couple years.
And we lived together for, like, six months.
Oh, man.
That's a shame you broke up.
That's a shame you broke up.
Want to say hello to Matt of Matt Teardrop?
Not really.
Oh, you don't?
Okay.
Easy, easy.
Yeah, yeah, hey, what's up, Matt?
Hey, how are you?
Not too good.
Good, good, man.

That was pre-Pete.
Yeah, that was right before me.
Yeah.
Pre-Pete.
Yeah.
It was, like, uh, pre-Pete B.C.
or some shit.
Man.
I can't believe that.
Hey, Matt.
Yes?
Hey, uh, hey, there's that song that you used to sing.
I can't, like, find it anywhere, but, uh, it's, like, about the photo and I can see you anytime I want to.
Oh, yeah.
I'm sure it's probably called the photo or something.
That's, that's, from our Skull EP.
It's called Safe Case of Sex.
Can you, like, can you play it tonight, man?
Do you have it?
Ooh.
Play it tonight on acoustic.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
We're, we're gonna have, uh, Manhattan Murder Mystery play some acoustic, uh, That's a challenge.
You want that?

That's a real challenge for me.
That's a real challenge for me.
He wants it.
Hey, Matt, he broke his chick, dumped his ass.
I'm requesting songs, man.
He's requesting a song that means something to him.
You got it.
I'm gonna, Karen is, uh, I'll be acting on that.
My breakup, man, and, and, you know, all the hard struggles I went through with my chick.
If Karen will back us up, we can do anything.
She's gonna take us to the moon, man.
I know.
I'm gonna back up Manhattan Murder Mystery, but we gotta interview Matt first, and it's, and it's good talking to you.
We'll give it a shot tonight.
Yeah, but.
We'll give it a shot tonight.
Yeah, you know, it's just we haven't talked to Pete in such a long time, and I, I really was thinking that everything was going good, and I was like, you know what?
He really did make the right decision, because what the fuck am I doing?
You know what I mean?
Doing this stupid radio show.
But it's, it turns out that I'm actually doing the right thing, Pete.
Nailed it.
You are.
You are.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
Although, like, you know, you know, like, I, I kind of, I kind of look at it as like, you know, hey, it's a chance for me to kind of start something up here, because it doesn't seem like there's much of a scene up here, so it's kind of really hurting for bands to play.
So you're gonna be the little.
It kind of, it kind of makes me excited, man.
Have you been to the, have you been to the Funhouse?
No.
I have been to the Funhouse.
That place is pretty cool.
We played there, we played there last summer.
What was the band that we played with, with the drum?
We played with, we, the media, the media.
We played with El Duce's old bandmates.
You know El Duce?
Oh, no shit?
Yeah, from the mentors.
the guy who was, yeah, we played with the mentors.
Killed with, yeah, killed by a train.
Yeah, and he was hired, he was hired by Courtney Love to kill Kurt Cobain, and we played with his bandmates.
Yeah.
Yeah, we played with the mentors too, man.
It was cool.
I saw the, the drummer from the mentors, he had the same drum set.
Anyway, there's a story, they asked Dave Grohl about like what his favorite drum set would be, and it would be the guy from the mentors drum set.
I don't know if you guys have ever seen it.
Yes, we have.
Yes, we have.
It's so awesome.
We saw it.
Yeah.
We took pictures of it.
It's like these giant drums like, like wallpapered in like, like fat chick porn.
Porn, yeah.
I mean, they're beautiful fat chicks, don't get me wrong.
Oh, they're lovely.
Yeah.
They're not all fat.
They are some fine looking women on there.
I mean, I mean, I mean, yeah, I'm not saying like it's a bad thing.
Don't get me wrong.
Yeah, I was into it.
Yeah.
Hey, how would you like to come to Matt's show?
He's gonna do, I have a venue I'm running.
Yeah, you wanna come down and meet Karen Centerfold, Pete?
On, how about, how about showing up on May 21st at the Little Joy on, on Judgment Day?
It's the last day of Earth.
Yes.
It's not the last day of Earth, but the Christians.
Oh, no, it's the, it's the rapture.
Right.
The Christians are gonna be protesting the magazines I've done, you know, and they're gonna be, they're gonna be, they're gonna be outside and Matt of Manhattan Murder Mystery, the Schomburg Knife Fight Ensemble, Haunted Tiger, and, and, Ensemble.

to play in Fancy Space People and you're invited, I'll give you.
But you gotta pay him his money that you owe.
Can I ask a question?
Right.
Do you know, we're playing on May 21st at the Little Joy, do you know if, are we gonna be playing before midnight, before the rapture?
Um, yeah, you are.
I wanna, I wanna play right at the strike of midnight.
are you talking to Pete?
I don't know if I can arrange that, but we'll see, we'll see how the schedule goes, Cody, and we'll see how the schedule goes.
Yeah, maybe.
I think I'm talking to the Lord, like, I wanna actually, actually, if, if there's any way we can make it scheduling wise, so we can play during the rapture, so I could go up.
Yeah, yeah, you would.
Like, I don't know about you guys, but like, I plan on, you'll be right after the four horses.
You're planning on being beamed up?

I like when Karen goes, you're not thinking straight.
You're calling from where?
I'm calling from California, Glendale.
Oh, good for you.
That's where all the Armenians are, right?
Yeah, it's the dual city.
And the Armenians, their dicks are as big as black guys.
And here's Matt.
Teardrop.
What?
She wants you to elaborate, Matt.
Yeah, their dicks are as big as black guys and they're Arbor Day.
Armenians and...
It depends on the particular black guy, I guess.
The particular Armenian, I suppose.
Yeah.
That must make me black because, I mean, you can ask Mary.
She said I'm kind of black.
I have kind of the black way.
Don't say that stuff to me.
I don't feel that.
I don't feel that.
I might have met you before.
I'm not really sure, but it's good talking to you.
Here's Matt teardropping Vince again.
Yeah, okay.
Thanks, Karen.
Okay.
You're the lovely.
Just like, you know, handing it off.
Hey, Matt, you're fucking awesome, dude.
Oh, you're awesome.
Let's talk to Mary.
Let's put Mary on the line.
Hey, Mary.
We're going to put you on the line.
Okay, set up Pepsi.
Thank you.
Matt's got to get his whistle.
We got some early times and some Pepsi.
My whistle's drying.
I got to wet that shit.
Hi, Katya.
Hi, Katya.
Hello, Mary.
Hi, Katya.
You have to speak into the mic.
Hi, Katya.
Hi, Matt.
Hi, my love.
Who is this?
It's Mary.
Mary Matt.
Oh, hey.
How are you?
I feel so left out because, like, you guys know each other, and I'm like, what?
Mary, have you met Vince?
I feel like I showed up at a party, and I don't know anybody here.
I'm fucking going home, man.
You know, Mary.
Fuck this shit.
Oh, come on.
I feel like you're, like, in junior high school or something.
Yeah.
You're like, fuck these people.
No, I know I've met them over, dude.
You've been unpopular your whole life, Vince.
Why are you acting like it's new?
That's why you started a band.
I'm just sick of it.
God, there's so much going on in this house.
Are you calling?
Are you calling to make a request for Manhattan Murder Mystery to play acoustically right now?
I am.
I think that'd be awesome.
All right.
Well, what do you want to hear?
You guys up to it?
I think I'd like to hear, you know, the parking lot.
That's scary.
You know what?
He can do that.
I sing it with him at the end of all his shows.
It's just, you can do it if you really want it, but see, he's got other songs, and that one that you just heard.
I think that Matt should play Everybody Wants Me Dead.
Oh, that'd be beautiful.
It's just, that'd be good.
Everybody Wants Me Dead?
All right.
Everybody Wants Me Dead.
I want to hand it off to Matt, who's going to play a song.
Okay, I'll play that.
It looks like everybody wants to hear Everybody Wants Me Dead.
Give me a second while we mic up.
Because when he dies, then we all get to go to heaven with him.
Right.
Hold on to his ankle.
May 21st, Manhattan Murder Mystery.
Hopefully God is strong.
May 21st, Manhattan Murder Mystery is playing at Little Joy.
I'm going to be taken in a rapture for sure.
So if you want to go up to heaven, if you're not sure about your status in the rapture, come to May 21st, Little Joy.
I'm going to be taken in a rapture.
Probably Jefferson from Little, from Haunted Tiger is also going to be taken in the rapture.
I think Steve will too.
What do you think, Karen?
Steve, right?
Steve and Schoenberg Night Fight Ensemble or who?
Steve who?
Yeah, Steve from Schoenberg.
I think he's going to be taken up in the rapture.
But I'm pretty sure that in order to be taken up in the rapture, you have to...
If you have strong, if you have strong arms, you're welcome to come with me and Steve and Jefferson.
And DeBenny, like, I don't really know if DeBenny is going to be going in the rapture.
You know what?
I did a show with him.
I don't know if I'm going to make it to the rapture because I want to hear this song so bad right now.
I did a show with DeBenny of Tleilaxa Music Machine.
Seriously, Karen?
Wow.
Monday night at Peer Space.
It was incredible.
He did the Jesus act.
I did the Mary Magdalene act.
And it totally made it.
So I'm going to do an act with him where he portrays Jesus.
I portray Mary Magdalene.
On May 21st.
So it'll be a big deal.
And I'm inviting you to.
Well, hey, Dean, we're going to have Manhattan Murder Mystery play this song.
What's it called again?
I think it's...
Everybody wants to be that.
I'll do that one.
Everybody wants to...
What?
She doesn't have the right harmonica right now for that.
Do you have a G?
All right.
They're going to find the right harmonica.
Dean, thanks for calling the More Music Radio pod.
Do you have D?
Please keep listening.
All right.
I'll do a G.
I'll do a song on a G.
Yeah.
That's from our upcoming album.
That's the same one John Popper uses.
John Popper of blues traveler fame.
You got to be sure.
What song are we doing?
It's a song.
Just play it G.
Play it G.
