Live And Let Liver

“I can get you one. It’s no trouble.”

“It’s just not my style of hat, Croz.”

“You’d look good in one. Plus, it’s got the holes in it so your head stays nice and cool.”

“Really. I’m good.”

“How about underwear?”

“What?”

“Crocheted underwear.”

“That’s a thing?”

“I’m wearing a pair right now.”

“Are they comfortable?”

“It’s like a yarn shop is making love to my balls.”

“So…uncomfortable?”

“No. They’re great. What size are you?”

“I don’t want macrame skivvies, man.”

“Your loss. Well, your balls’ loss.”

“So be it.”

“Hey, uh, Lesh.”

“Yeah, buddy?”

“I got a weird question.”

“Shoot.”

“It’s kinda weird. And personal.”

“We’ve known each other for 50 years,man. You can ask me anything.”

“Okay, cool. Here goes: does your liver talk to you?”

“Constantly.”

“Oh, thank God. I thought I was going nuts.”

“Been having an active, though sub rosa, conversation with the thing since I got it.”

“So good to hear. What do you two talk about?”

“Buffalo Sabres.”

“Huh?”

“My liver’s a big fan of the Sabres.”

“Weird.”

“Tell me about it. I had to learn about hockey. And Buffalo. But, yeah, you’re cool.”

“That puts my mind at ease. Listen, I’m just gonna get you a hat and you’ll decide whether or not to wear it.”

“I’ve already decided. Do not buy me one of those Weird Harold hats.”

Friends Of The Band

Hey, Grateful Dead archivist David Lemieux. You’re blurry.

“It’s just the photo.”

You sure?

“Positive.”

If that guy offers you a drink, don’t take it.

“Crosby. With an R. Not Cosby.”

Ah. Steal his hat.

“I wouldn’t do such a thing.”

Steal it.

“I’m not going to.”

STEAL DAVID CROSBY’S MUSHMOUTH HAT!

“Can we stop speaking? Is there any way to opt out of being a character in this foolishness?”

I’ll tell you what: you can stop being on the site if you can produce a Jew.

“Produce a Jew?”

Make a Jew appear.

“Boom, eh?”

Wow.

“Canadians can conjure Jewish people at will.”

I did not know that. Hey, award-winning author Steve Silberman.

“Leave me out of your garbage, too.”

Everyone’s mean to me.

It’s Always Taco Tuesday Somewhere

Hey, Croz. Whatcha thinking about?

“A beach where the sand is all cocaine.”

Nice. What about you, Phil?

“I’d like tacos.”

“Oh, I could go for tacos.”

“Couple of beers?”

“You’re speaking my language.”

“Let’s hit it.”

“I’ll drive.”

ROCK STARS LEAVING THE ROOM NOISE

Guys?

Guys?

Did they just leave?

Yeah. They went to get tacos.

Oh, I could go for tacos.

ITALIC-AMERICAN LEAVING THE ROOM NOISE

Hello?

Anybody?

“Hey, motherfucker.”

Hi, Mr. Davis.

“Get the fuck in. We’re getting tacos.”

Yay!

“You’re paying.”

Boo.

Crosby, Hussain, And Hart (Doesn’t Have The Same Ring To It, Does It?)

Hey, Croz.

“Hey, man.”

Say “dia-BEE-tus.”

“No.”

Come on.

“Knock it off.”

What’s Mickey wearing?

“The material is called brocade.”

How do you pronounce that?

“Rhymes with ‘Joe Fade.'”

Is Joe Fade a pool player you used to know?

“Yes.”

You are interesting as fuck, Croz.

“True.”

Say “dia-BEE-tus.”

“Fuck off.”

Bill Graham Addresses The Crowd At Live Aid

“Good morning. We welcome you on behalf of the Ethiopians.

“We’re gonna get started in just a second. We’ve got some great bands on the lineup, and we also have George Thorogood. Both Durans are here. Joe Piscopo is one of our celebrities, so who knows what crazy mishegos is gonna take place? Piscopo’s a wild card.

“Some short announcements before we get started.

“There is a blue Chevy Caprice in the parking lot with its lights on. License plate number RVA-119.

“Fuck Paul Simon.

“And finally: Philadelphia, you are a rock and roll town. Like my good friend Huey Lewis, who can also go fuck himself, says: the heart of rock and roll is in Philadelphia. We couldn’t do this show anywhere else. So, that said: please do not throw D batteries at the performers. If you want to keep throwing them at the cameramen and roadies, then go to it. But not the performers, please. If you must throw batteries at the stars, then keep it to a double-AA.

“Except Stephen Stills. You can throw car batteries at that putz for all I care. You see what he’s wearing, that putz?

“Look at him. Captain of the USS Cocaine. Putz. I’m wearing a long-sleeve button-down shirt with shorts and I still have moral standing to critique his outfit. That’s how much of a putz he is, that putz.

“Okay, so here we go. Feel free to get loose with each other and boogie. Tee-shirt concessions are open.”
