Musings on the Most Ridiculous Band I Can't Stop Listening To

And Featuring Bobby’s Serial Killer Glasses

Hey, Pig. Whatcha doing?

“Freezin’! Got t’ get back t’ California where the ol’ Pig c’n roast in the sunshine! You c’n put an apple in my mouth f’r all I care! Jus’ gimme some more fahrenheits, man.”

Is this Europe?

“Looks it.”

What did you think of Europe?

“Ain’t for me! Everything’s all wrong here. Can’t find a Mr. Pibb to save my life!”

I don’t think they had Mr. Pibb in Europe in 1972.

“Or ribs! The ol’ Pig had hisself a hankering for a rack o’ babybacks, but no can do. Didn’t matter which country we was in, I’d ask and the waiter’d look at me funny! Sometimes, they’d say somethin’ in European. Now, the ol’ Pig only speaks American like a good Christian, but I got the gist! These garcons was not being complimentary!”

Barbecue is kind of an American thing, Pig.

“Then fry a man up a chicken! Gimme somethin’ I can eat! Suckers kept tryin’ t’ get me t’ order organ meat. Whole continent o’ people thinkin’ a pancreas is lunch! No wonder they lost the Big One! Wasn’t fed right!”

You got a point.

“I could have all the points in th’ world. Still won’t get me a decent cheeseburger over here.”

True.

    I had a cheeseburger in Spain, they put a fried egg on top – over easy- and the bun had a little round hole in it so as not to damage the yolk.

    Not saying Pig Pen would like it, but well it was pretty good, I bet the rest of the band would have liked it.

    I just sort of ramble here, I hope that is alright, I mean don’t ban me.

    How was he both half-dead and filling out that puffycoat so much?

      Was a VERY puffy coat for early ’72.

      This is the actual 47 year Anniversary of the 1st show @ the Empire Pool, incidentally.

    I suspect Pig & Pelty Johannrengensen had some late night Wimpy’s
