Theme song question
« on: December 28, 2007, 06:10:18 PM »
specifically about the end of DT's Theme

From what show/circumstance does Tom's ultra-angry GOMP audio come from?

Thanks!

Whatcha eatin' there, some Doritos?

probably a No Smokin' Joe or Capt Jack call is my guess.

I could be wrong, but I think it's the infamous "Get off my phone forever" from:

December 7, 2004: Tim And Eric From 'Tom Goes To The Mayor' Stop By For Some Fun. Gene Simmons Tries To Sell Tom Some Stuff. Some Talk Of How American Chocolate Is The Best, And The Absolute Final Captain Jack Appearance.

I myself would like to know the origin of the big "The" at the beginning of the theme.

If I'm not mistaken, that "the" comes from the first opening that Tom made for the Best Show back when it first started.

That's true, but where was it before that?  I always thought those were found, not recorded, sound clips.

Thanks!  As a Red Sox fan, I'm glad I didn't recognize it before.
