You know something? He *did* say "well, yeah" a lot. (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 5 August 2014 18:17 (eleven years ago)

all gone now. here's hopper's story of the photo:

John Houston (sic) and I were doing an ad for whisky with Victor Skrebneski. I asked Huston when was the last time he had seen John Ford. “I haven’t seen him in 20 years” he responded. So we decided to visit Mr. Ford in Palm Springs and take Victor with us. After talking for a while, I told Mr. Ford that I had gotten permission from his wife to get him into his wheelchair so we could take a photograph together. Mr. Ford replied, “Kid, you know what your problem is? You’ve got no sense of drama — because if you had a sense of drama you’d get in bed with me.”

amazing story, amazing pic

The beer was cold, but so was the glass, which drives me crazy. (stevie), Tuesday, 5 August 2014 20:26 (eleven years ago)

That pic probably made me the happiest of any on the thread

Since seeing everything's photo last night I've had "oh bondage up yours" stuck in my head but in Carol Channing's voice. Which is actually kind of awesome

joygoat, Friday, 8 August 2014 15:03 (eleven years ago)

wait what?

Ed Beg was . . . a singer?

how did I never know this?

amazing

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Friday, 8 August 2014 15:47 (eleven years ago)

supposedly he has one of the biggest "talents" in Hollywood but I think that's pretty well-known at this point

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Friday, 8 August 2014 15:48 (eleven years ago)

I'm only going by what it said in Rob Javanovic's biography of Alex Chilton, but apparently it was a stand-up routine that Begley did, not singing.

everything, Friday, 8 August 2014 18:09 (eleven years ago)

Yeah, that makes sense but I kind of wish he had this secret singing career nobody knew about.

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Friday, 8 August 2014 18:13 (eleven years ago)

Well, he was the original drummer in Spinal Tap!

Dali, Harpo

I Don't Wanna Ice Bucket With You (C. Grisso/McCain), Wednesday, 3 September 2014 03:41 (eleven years ago)

Very much expected IMO, Dali was kind of a "look at me, I'm All-American goofy fun for all ages" postwar, right?

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 3 September 2014 16:26 (eleven years ago)

Harp with barbed-wire strings designed by Dali, who also wrote a script for them called "The Marx Brothers on Horseback Salad".

Sir Lord Baltimora (Myonga Vön Bontee), Wednesday, 3 September 2014 16:32 (eleven years ago)

Yeah, they were friends for years. And Dali did a few drawings or paintings of or inspired by Harpo (Groucho too).

surrealists loved Harpo, Buster Keaton too

son of a lewd monk (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 3 September 2014 16:42 (eleven years ago)

I saw one earlier, but it had Dave Grohl in it, kind of our generation's Alice Cooper/Salvador Dali.

pplains, Wednesday, 3 September 2014 18:32 (eleven years ago)

Yeah, here it is. All three are musicians, so I guess it's no big deal.

Didn't know who the guy in the middle was, at first. I'll let you guess.

(Guy on the right obviously what's his face from the "Diners Drive-Ins & Dives" TV show... *quickly snaps fingers twice*... Val Kilmer.)

pplains, Wednesday, 3 September 2014 18:36 (eleven years ago)

don't know about the middle guy, but I really wish it were Jarvis Cocker partying with Dave and Sammy. If anything's gonna cheer him up, it'd be a lil' Cabo Wabo

Thanks for playing along with the charade, VG. Don't see any reason to change.
