Be interesting to hear your reaction if you do decide to listen to it again.

Didn't the KDAF era have a song called 'I Wanna Fuck Myself'?
this was a GG Allin cover version, and a good one at that

Speaking of Patton and (intentional) assholery, per the INXS anecdote (whether or not it is real). I remember hearing about them having a miserable time opening for GNR in Europe, culminating (supposedly) with Patton taking a shit into Axl's stage shoes or something.

(LOL it was supposedly not his stage shoes but into his orange juice carton! And the FNM camp has denied it, so oh well.)

Though I did find this catalog of him pooping and peeing on or in everything. True or not, esp. from a famed bullshitter, it's certainly ... gross.

I fell into some sort of wikipedia worm hole and didn't know that three members of the band were a third - Preston Lea Spruance III, Roswell Christopher Bottum III, and Charles Henry Mosley III.

I guess that's why they called him Tre

I've never gotten into Mr. Bungle, despite loving Faith No More and Zorn/Naked City. I just don't like Bungle's players that much.

Ah, see I'm something of a Trevor Dunn superfan, so it's the opposite for me (I really like Spruance too)

I still can't believe Jim Martin was in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey

The ultimate Mike Patton story is the one about the Farriss brothers from INXS ringing him to ask if he wanted to be their frontman for their upcoming tour. He replied that he would do it on one condition . . . that he be allowed to re-enact Hutchence's death on stage every night.

i feel like patton was just really into autoerotic asphyxiation
he also wrote that song "dead goon" for the first mr. bungle album
the only song from "angel dust" i have still in my library is "malpractice", i don't know if anybody ever talks about it but i listened to the whole album at some point between 2009 and 2016 and that song stood out as the highlight

Patton's big thing back then was what he referred to as "shit terrorism". Find a hairdryer in someone's hotel room, take a dump in it, screw the front back on, then carnage would ensue the next time somebody switched the hairdryer on.
A very odd man.

Yeah, I became much less enamored of him as a personality the more stories like this I heard.

I posted a link to a full catalog of his tall tales. which may in fact be just that, bullshit.

It can't be a coincidence that the bands he is always accused of feuding with, like guns n' roses or the red hot chili peppers, seem like the biggest assholes of all time.

Has to be full of it cos most of those would be arrestable offenses

Good point, rock bands would never do anything illegal on the road.

Difference between "trashing a hotel room" and "giving someone an e coli infection".
Dave Matthews hasn't recovered from dumping shit and piss on innocent bystanders

And then there was the Chicago River Incident
Replacements used to put a dead fish in hotel ice dispensers, iirc. And God knows where they peed.
