saw Mike Doughty a few years ago in Asheville NC, just him and an electric guitar. 10 dollars. One of the best shows I've ever seen! He sat on the stage afterwards, a foot above the floor, and sold copies of his latest cd at the time, blank silver cds in a white sleeve pack :p He signed my old beat up copy of rubyV ^_^
Funny part of the show was when he told some of the regulars in the back to stfu, if they wouldn't mind, so the ppl that paid to get in could hear lol
This song is cool. most people think it's about rape, but ACTUALLY they talk about ego, and how he wants to throw it off a roof. He used to work with his buddy stamping peoples hands in front of a venue, and would make up little raps and came up with "You get the tickets and I stamp the wrist" haha. That's what i heard, at least.
Totally agree! Seems nobody knows them, but somehow they are known all over the world. I loved their mix of all different elements. During a time when lot's of experimental music was being released, they succeeded in being even more inventive and creative than most other bands.
This was the first song I ever heard from SC, and it scarred me for life :oP... luckily.
I got this album in 94 on cassette, I didn't have much expectations, I wound up playing the thing to death over the next several months....haven't heard another album they've done that i liked as much, but I do recall numerous Rolling Stone articles on these guys from the mid and late 90s...they became this type of dork jazz rock, which is too bad, I thought they were legit to be mainstream, but I guess not
those are the andrews sisters (the 'boogie woogie bugle boy' chicks) saying 'anyone else but me' . it's from their 1940s hit 'don't sit under the apple tree' (with anyone else but me... no, no, no)'
"Rape" Really?
Get a clue.
