The Gameshow Started Today

I’ve been playing Jason Zahn’s GameShow religiously for the past few months and you should, too. The object is to complete a phrase or word with the most common answer. For example, one day the phrase was SPIDER_____. The winning answer was MAN, but I stupidly put WEB so I didn’t get the full points. The new game started today, so check it out!

Kilpatrick @ A Gazebo in Haddonfield

On Saturday I watched about half of Pat Hipp’s set in front of a gazebo near mars-red. He makes fun of himself and others in between songs and that’s the best thing about Pat’s gigs. He even announced to the bewildered crowd his identity in the current game of odd man out, and by crowd I mean 7 people.

Still, people were listening on a relatively poor weather day in Haddonfield. Various dogs and cats were making a lot of noise during the set, sort of like when they sense an earthquake forming, a tsunami approaching, or a Pauly Shore comeback. They proved to be correct when Pat ended his set with his rendition of Sisqo’s “Thong Song.” I liked how he started the intro normally, “This thing right here, Is lettin all the ladies know,What guys talk about,” but then said, “Actually, I’ve never heard any guys talk about this. In fact, I prefer full bottoms.”

I also liked how he performed a pre-emptive strike on an unfinished song by saying most of the lyrics to his original song were “made up.” If not made up, I still wonder where the rest of the lyrics came from.

Open Mic Recap @ The Caribbean Crab (10/27/04)

Last Wednesday I went to the open mic Halloween party at the Caribbean Crab. Who did I go as? The Greatest American Hero (pics here, history of the character here). I thought I had the costume contest locked up, but I ended up in 5th place! I even played the freaking theme song. Maybe next year I should be something people remember.

I played “Believe it or Not,” the theme to the Greatest American Hero, along with 99%, and Why Now Satan. I was pretty pissed that my pickup wouldn’t work, but I figured out what the problem was. A wire inside my guitar came loose and it worked fine when I fixed it. Thanks to Justin for letting me borrow his guitar.

Some of the other costumes I liked were the swing state, Shaq Daniels, and Brooke the alien. I still have no idea who Justin was supposed to be. Check out pics of the event here.
