After a long night of drinking Marc stumbles into the living room where Jeremy is reading the paper listening to music...
- Hey, what's up? Me? Nuthin'. Last night? Not much really...watched a little TV, listened to some records. What about you? Yeah? Cool party? Nice! What was she like? Wow, German huh? Cool, what's that? What do you mean it's leaking? I bet some cream would clear that right up.
(audible music from stereo) "I hate peace and love one another, why don't you just go fuck your mother"
Hehe. Yeah, pretty cool huh? Don't get enough of that in your rock 'n' roll these days. Who? Oh, it's Monkey Paw. Yeah, Mon-key Paw. You'll like this one, the album's called Hating You Is So Easy. I don't know, I'm not really sure...they're some crazy Chicago band. Totally, I know! They rock pretty hard. The rest of the album is pretty solid, too. It's sorta Pixies-ish, y'know? The singer kinda sounds like Billy Corgan - before he started sucking, that is. There's this cool little swing-ish song called "What A Shame," as well as a Spanish-type song called "Señorita." They're kinda all over the place, but it still rocks; I think that's why I like it so much. Yep, horns and everything, the whole deal.
(from stereo again) "My you've grown and I don't mean that in a good way"
(living room door opens, in walks Bill)
Hey Bill, what's up. Me? Nuthin really, just watched some tube, listened to some records. You? Oh yeah I forgot, how was the, ahem, Blink 176 show, huh?, oh 182, whatever. Hehe, stop laughing Marc, don't get me started man, it's too early for that. This, oh it's Monkey Paw, yep Mon-key Paw. Oh yeah, you're right Blink 198 is a much better name for a band. Too loud for ya huh, hear let me fix that for ya.
(as stereo turns louder Bill cringes and exits room)
Works every time doesn't it Marc, that boy needs some fiber in his musical diet, whaddya say we make a copy of this and switch it with his Jodeci album. Jesus, I can't believe we haven't destroyed that by now. Better yet, let's put that first track "Fuck Your Mother" on our answering machine. Yeah, I know, he's had like three people call him back for interviews for some internet companies or some shit like that. I know, that'd be hysterical, let's do it. Oh okay, we can do it after your doctor's appointment man, yeah, I hope the swelling goes down too.
