- Great bit, great
idea, funny premise, funny set-up...

...100%
fake as hell. Under the guise of radio show,
a forum which leaves little room for such
explanations I can let it go. But in "Journey
Format", a place where I'm my most honest,
I just can't make up some wild story.
The Bottom line is I wanted desperately
to do this for real, but I really
fuggin' thought Andyman would kill me. Like
seriously kill me.

- I told him
about the idea after we saw an advanced screening of
the movie and he made no bones about it: I would
be fired. Star Wars is a friggin' religion to him and
he saw what we did with "Urban Legends".
-
- So I half made the
bit to make him think I had done it and watch him
go ape shit, but I think I still ended up telling
him the truth for fear of what he would do to me.
Shit, the kids in line? Whatever. Andyman holds much
more weight (literally).
-
- To do the bit I
got our crappy tape player and went outside with Tony
Pazelt on Liberty and had him stand across the street
and yell shit at me. Michael Palermo and Steve Gibson
helped out as well. Then the rest was just me acting
by myself running up and down the street. I know,
weak as hell right? But the finished bit rocks.
Seriously. It sounds legit, it was several people's
favorite of all time. The hype for that movie was
simply so big that the thought of someone seeing it
early and ruining it for people who camped for weeks
to see it... damnit I never should've told
Andy.
-
- Oh well. Still
love it.
