September 22
September 22, 2010 marks the 15th anniversary of The Hanslick Rebellion’s first performance. The Rebellion continues to this day, and remains the coolest band around. Here, I can prove it:
We’re trying to work out the best way to celebrate the anniversary. One thing the Rebellion has yet to do is record a full-length studio album, so that’s a possibility. Another might be a compilation of live, unreleased Rebellion audio, paired with a limited-edition portfolio of original mid-’90s gig flyers.
It occurs to me there should probably be a gig. Maybe in Albany.
“It occurs to me there should probably be a gig. Maybe in Albany.”
YEAH ALBANY! (I Can’t Help You Anymore – 1:09)
For some reason, the “heckler” bits and background voices are some of my favorite parts.
Other notable ones:
Hey baby, want to stroke my beard?
What’s the matter, you don’t like pizza?
I love love!
Fist me Jed!
Brett pulling out the deep cuts!
“I LOVE LOVE!” and “FIST ME JED!” were both Chris Radtke. But where the hell did you hear the other two?! I’ve never noticed either of those.
They’re both background voices during My Brother’s on a One-Way Flight to Heaven. (0:34 & 0:40)
I didn’t notice either one until I listened with “Karaoke Mode” turned on to eliminate the center channel.
Less subtle is the “Wait a minute, who are these masked men in hockey masks?” (0:48)
Most of the background din is either too faint, or drunken musings about how bad The Jets were or how much the singer sucks.
Wow, I never heard any of those… I have to go back and listen for more hidden messages now!
Wow… I didn’t even realize those were in there. I just listened back. All the ad-libs you mentioned came from Alex Dubovoy:
“My Brother’s On A One-Way Flight To Heaven”
