all right I'm back to drinking I'm disgusted with myself I was in Atlanta this
week I didn't drink
Wednesday and I didn't drink Thursday and then Friday was coming along and I
was tired now my
buddy was opening for me and I had a couple of drinks I had two beers then I
switched to water
which is a great thing and it usually makes me stop but the thing was is I left
the punch line in
Atlanta that's where I was at I was at the punch line and I walked across the
street to this club 290
and when I don't know somewhere walking from the punch line across the parking
lot to club 290 I
then switched back to uh to alcohol I don't know what happened Jesus Christ
hear my phone ringing in
the background how many times can it ring before you realize either I'm not
home or I'm not picking
it up it's probably some fucking telemarketer oh Jesus there you go person
finally quit
so anyways uh anyway shh I walk over there and people are drinking so I had a
couple more Budweiser's
and then the fucking bartender over there if you guys live in the Atlanta area
and I feel really bad
telling you this all right because it's such a cool fucking thing that I don't
want it to get ruined
you know I can't remember what the name of the thing was just go in there there's
a bartender named Tommy
and just ask him if he can spin the wheel
all right this guy out of nowhere says to me and Paul Verzi who's opening up
for me who fucking killed
all weekend he just pulls out this drum head and it's got an arrow and has a
bunch of shit written
all around the rim of the drum head and he goes spin the arrow and you'd spin
it and he I don't even I
was so drunk I don't even know what I got and uh Paul spun it first he got
something the guy goes okay
you got this then he has me spin it and he goes all right you got you know you
got this and then he
walks over and he picks up this I don't know what it is you know like that
thing like that they put
like uh Jaeger in you know when you do like they have Jaeger on tap you know
those things
he basically picked up something like that that had a door on the front of it
and he just puts it on top
of his head and he's just staring at us and all of a sudden he opens the door
and he has this dumb
cross-eyed look on his face and he starts singing slash rapping I don't know
what and it doesn't even
sound like English and at the end of every sentence it kind of fucking rhymes
and right as you start to
figure out what he's saying he stops makes a weird face and slams the door
right in his face
it's the most fucked up thing when he first did it I was like all defensive
like is this guy gonna
make me look like a fucking asshole and then I and then right as I caught on
that he was just acting
like an idiot he slammed the door on himself and it was the best fucking laugh
I've had in like three
months I can't even imitate what he did and that was just for Paul so now he's
standing he just slammed
the door this fucking thing on his right in his own face this little door and
now he's just standing
there looking at me but he's not looking at me he's got this fucking thing on
him on his head and I know
I'm next and all of a sudden he opens the door again he's got that same dumb
look on his face
and he said ah bill bird up at that I can't even fucking do what he was doing
and me and Paul at this point are like pounding the bar fucking dying laughing
and you didn't want it to end and all of a sudden he just stops with his
fucked up look on his face and he slams the door in his face again
club 290 the guy's name's Tommy
just hang out there I'm telling you out of all the fucking weird shit I've seen
in bars with people doing tricks with matchbooks people telling you jokes and
everything was the
most unique fucking thing I've ever seen in my life and um it's called the club
290 just just go in
there um whatever that's it the next night I was going to bring actually my
video camera and videotape
it and put it up on YouTube but I didn't want to because YouTube ruins
everything because
everything then becomes mainstream and it can't be uh it was just this cool
underground thing so what I
did to keep it underground was not videotape it and then fucking talk about it
on my podcast what an asshole
um
