He's biting into one already Marcel. It's what they gave people back then prior to brain surgery to prevent them from biting off their own tongue.

Oh man, that was so hilarious when Clay Pigeon interviewed Alexander Haacke from Einsturzende Neubauten.. cant remember the details but I laughed my ass off. Alex ended up walking out...
Avatar Ken Marathon 2025 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:17am -Ken:

YES!! It was Nitzer Ebb!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:18am Polyus:

He also thought Alex was Larry Seven.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:18am Marcel M:

@Ken: That too is a favorite WFMU moment for me. That was great. Do you think he was really flustered/mad? He seemed to be amused by it at least a little. And you know they will probably meet again... looking forward to that. He kept calling him Larry haha.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:19am Marcel M:

Yeah and like, his wife kept talking about how great Larry Seven was and praising him, and Clay was like,... "Wow, you've got a devoted wife who loves and respects you..." or something.. hahaha.. ahh man too good.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:25am Marcel M:

@Rev. Druid: Yes! Good observation!

This Nirvana smoothness is unnerving.
  10:27am F۞F۞ (:

This is how Einsturzende Neubauten is pronounced:

Ein (as in one)
Turzende - (as in Turd)
Neu - (as in new)
Bauten - (as in baton)

One-Turd New-Baton

I pretty sure is pronounced like that because I took a German course in 1998.
