Today on 'In the FOT Seat': Mrs. Jarvis Cocker

[Shaggy 2 Grote]

To answer your question, Laurie, I'm more of an El Duce figure.  At least I thought I was, until TL burst my bubble.

Shit, there goes my dream job.

I wouldn't take it too personal. TL takes Thug Jesus very seriously. I've heard some of his new songs live, and they're basically all about Him. If I'm interpreting the lyrics properly.

[Laurie]

TL, if you come to Miami, we can make a pilgrimage to Thug Jesus. Hell, you could even play the White Room! It would be magical.

I couldn't remember which band El Duce was in, so I googled. This NSFW site came up. My favorite part is this:

The Church of El Duce is open to anyone to join with certain exceptions : no gayes, no children allowed as well : only sexually liberated swingers

No one named Gaye is allowed. That's oddly specific.

Did Spike start this thing?

[Martin]

Laurie, I don't understand your current occupation. What happened after you left the bank thing? Did you find a new gig?

That's what my mom wants to know.

SHOCKING REVELATION: I am Laurie's mom

[Shaggy 2 Grote]

In case you couldn't find it, Laurie: El Duce was the fat sweaty guy from a gross misogynist 80s hardcore band called The Mentors*, and as far as I could tell (from seeing them at City Gardens in 1987 and a cursory internet search), he was primarily there to defecate on stage.  Hence my erstwhile Thug Jesus gig, though I was hoping to do it classy.

Oh, and he murdered Kurt Cobain for Courtney Love.





*I'm sure there's a Mentors fan here somewhere, feel free to debate/correct me

SHOCKING REVELATION: I am Laurie's mom

This comment made my morning.

Worse, still, it has my least favorite song: "Ye Sleeping Knights of Jesus."

Wow, after the title track, that's my favorite on that album. Different strokes! That would be a high quality desert island disc, though.

Did the Earth-3 Grote write this?  I know I forget my posts all the time, but I don't think I've ever even heard that song.

[Spoony]

"Johnny Sex Fuck?"

Yargh! There is no one worth meeting after midnight.

I've only been to Miami once, and I'm going to guess that's still considered PG-13.

He was quoting your first post, silly! Where you printed Mrs. JC's answers.

[Shaggy 2 Grote]

OK.  Whew!
