So I did an interview this past weekend for bonus content on my re-release of I was a teenage Strangler. The original distributors uploaded a private screener tou his YouTube account so all the actors could watch the movie before being interviewed. Within 5 minutes his account was banned. He lost his entire archive. The movie is so gross my friends were all crazy people. We had poop eating wire hanger abortion and girl scout rape like super graphic. That's what we did for fun in the suburbs of NJ.

He ate a fetus in anthropothagus. My friend Mikey ovum ate fake poop in my movie. Fun fact. My other friend Austin was in my movie and he was on project runway season 1 and was a character on SNL I think Fred played him.

I can't remember exactly, but it was near the center of town. The Blind Pig is north of the Second Chance, not in city center. I liked the Del Rio, too. Del Rio was a cool place, and one night some guy bought me a beer there because he thought I looked like Duane Allman.

True story: I was at Verve when this album was released. Tina Turner was going to be in NYC for a very brief visit and made herself available to perform this with Herbie’s band if a tv show would be interested. Every single show i offered it to turned it down. I’m still mad about it all these years later (18, by my count). I should probably get over it.
