FIRST TAPE FROM MY PAL MARK
Mark had a temporary fascination with hemmorhoids, due to a weird little event that happened in his senior year of high school (my freshman year at college.) He started out the year taking Anatomy, but them decided to drop it in late September. But the teacher decided that he couldn't drop it - I still don't know why. So as his revenge, he did his "special project" for the year on the topic of hemmorhoids. He spent several months researching and preparing a presentation for the class on hemmorhoids. It was kinda weird, but kinda cool. I don't know if the teacher ever got it.... but I'm pretty sure it made her uncomfortable. Anyway, this tape is mainly little comedy bits done by Mark and my other friend Andy, plus some comedy stuff stolen off the radio. Song listing: Intrigue - The Brady Bunch - We've Got That Holiday Spirit - The Twilight Zone - I'm the Man - My Pets Are All Dead - Doom - Anything Goes (Chinese Version) - Movie Ad - Boldman - Eddie! - Elvis - Dead Puppies - E - Butterfly - Butterfly (remix) - 2nd Grade Blues - Face - The Contra Rap Coolest stuff: "Eddie!" is a deconstruction of Eddie Murphy's standup routines, in a cut-up collage style - way before we had ever heard of negativland. "Twilight Zone" is the story of one of our high school teachers (beloved, but easy to imitate), who gets transported to a weird dimension where everyone does nothing but imitate him. This tape is pretty sophmoric and scatological. and that's only fair - we weren't sophomores yet. |
