Title: Ballad of AP Mike Contest
Post by: B_Buster on October 31, 2013, 06:40:38 PM

As announced earlier on twitter, I'm looking for an answer song to counter Captain Bayonne's "Ballad of Captain Bayonne" for his appearance on The Best Show next Tues. I have already received a strong entry:

This is not really in contention for Mike's theme, but I wanted to share it again. This is a sound collage I made several years ago (Could this be where Tom got the idea? No, of course not) featuring the most horrifying portions of The Mike Show with Therese episode about childhood trauma. Featuring some wonderful people who I will miss hearing on my radio: Mike, Therese, Evan 'Funk' Davies, Terre T, Julie Klausner, Bonnie from GA, Fredericks, Dave from Knoxville, Larry Da Perv, Mike from Manhattan, Laurie from Miami and Paul F. Tompkins

Ever since Mike's response song to Gary the Squirrel I've kind of wanted to hear him cover this:

The Trip by Kim Fowley (1965) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2U5QuVX96M#)

In a pure-cheese sort of style, of course.

Also not a true contender, but same sentiment:

I think this one sounds a little better.
