Aphex Twin chat just reminded me of the time my friend did a hosed-up set at a badly organised village fete type thing and it was incredible, totally inappropriate for the setting. The dialogue between the nan and her grandson cracks me up every time, as does the 'ice rink' which consisted of a tarp covered in soapy water and some bags tied to the kid's feet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGAnEwFkXcc

Chris Pistols posted:Why did nobody tell this man to stop? I didn't know him very well when I filmed this. He is an awesome guy, really kind and gentle but he has this horrible thing called Usher Syndrome where he is going steadily deaf and blind. He hangs out with a lot of earnest crusty types who organise these kinds of antics all the time. I hung out with them and joined in with some things until I realised they were not really very good at making these events enjoyable for anyone, except their friends who were in on it. And most of the time they were part of the performance. This was another thing they did, except this time I was in the audience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LISHZ4DmpvE I wish there was a video of the Christmas puppet show they did where they picked the most miserable, depressing stories possible and got my 6 foot 4 mate up there to dress like Krampus and be the compere.

Well don't be a tease, what meme is that?

A million years ago when I was working at my small-town ISP which did websites for local businesses in the mid-90s, a radio station came in to have us buy a domain for them matching their slogan, "Today's Hits, Yesterday's Favorites". The station owner was one of those loud, angry, perpetually aggrieved types who stomps around yelling at everyone who always fucks everything up because everything is always everybody's fault but his own, so the relationship was tenuous from the start. He filled in the form for the domain, "TodaysHits.com". We took one look at it and said "uhhh are you sure about this? You don't get capital letters in a domain ...." He interrupted and yelled at us to JUST DO WHAT HE'S PAYING US FOR and stomped out of the office. We bought the domain and set up the website, and the next day he lit up our phones screaming about how the domain looks in his browser, and why didn't anybody tell him, and this is all our fault and he would sue us for defamation.

I played windowlicker on the juke box at Applebee's one time and someone spent probably $20 to bump the song and play the entire best of Queen album

Juke box wars are awesome. What decision process even leads to having Windowlicker on a juke box? Should start including 4'33", a song you might actually want to hear in an Applebee's once in a while.

The fact that an Aphex Twin song at all is a choice on any jukebox is a bit impressive. Was it one of those online ones with an app? Where a handful are normal priced and the ones that aren’t on it are like $2? My mind still thinks jukeboxes are with cds or records even though I know they are all online digital. I am an old.

Poopelyse posted:of course have to link The Boys are Back in Town jukebox story This was linked in the article: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnkrL42R7gk I had the same thing happen with a group of friends back in roughly ~01,02 (I'm old gently caress off). Hanson's MMMBob loops perfectly. Much like Mulaney's bit, it takes at least most of the way through the second time for people to realize it had looped. My friend played in 10X. They unplugged the jukebox after 4. It's also very obvious in a bar full of angry people with one table of giggling idiots who is responsible.

I once went into Whiskey Bar early in the evening with all the coins I could find and filled the queue with literally every non-heavy metal track in the jukebox (which would've been zero if not for the fact that they had a bunch of movie soundtrack CDs that had one or two popular heavy metal tracks on them but also other stuff). By about 21½ the crowd was getting so angry that some dude who'd seen me do it quietly told me I'd better slip out before I got a pint to the head. (They switched to plastic pints at some point but this was before that.)

We had one of the jukeboxes you could play from an app on your phone, so my friend would walk past the bar when I was setting up in the morning and play something for me, it was sweet. I was also working the day after Bowie died, and everybody was putting his tracks on and sulking around. It was fine for a while, but I eventually got bored and queued Who Let the Dogs Out. Everybody got pretty upset and blamed each other for spoiling the mood.

There was a sports bar in Brooklyn I didn’t like so I used one of those apps to line up Alice’s Restaurant and rupaul. There was a surprising amount of really long songs on there. My only regret is doing it from home.
