  • why is that dude naked?

  • One of the hazards of rock and roll.

  • Wow I have no idea why all those people were dirty and unhappy with each other. They all lookd like they would have gotten into a fistfight with each other if they had the energy. Was this real or an Andy Kaufman thing?

  • It was real. The full film would go on to provide more context. But essentially what happened is that several of the band's fans decided that it would be a good idea to attack the band with whipped cream and chocolate syrup near the end of the show.

  • The fans had every reason to expect that the band would find this funny and take it all in good humor, except (1) they neglected to tell the band about it in advance and (2) they didn't think about the fact that this would get sticky goo all over the band's expensive instruments and equipment. So combined with an underlying tension between members of the band, and the fact that it was their "last show ever," the band members were rather pissed off.

  • However, to me, it isn't really about them being pissed off as it's about the intensity of the band project and the way it affected the lives of the people involved in it. Perhaps they took themselves too seriously, and perhaps this was all apropos for the band's final moment.
