I Like Records 44
Wednesday afternoon, middle aged guy, not drunk.
GUY-Do you have Kiss “Crazy, crazy nights”, I just saw them and that’s the only song I don’t have by them.
ME-(look it up) Yeah, we should have that (get it from the Kiss section)..here you go Crazy Nights.
GUY-No…no man….no…This isn’t it…it’s Crazy CRAZY Nights…This is just crazy nights
ME-yeah…but there’s a song called “Crazy, Crazy Nights” on there.
GUY-...oooooohhhhhh yeeaahh…it is….I guess they were messin’ with me, with the title…yeah…that’s pretty tricky of them…(takes a deep breath) Okay, now I have a second question….Arlo Guthrie…..what’s his newest album?…..Do you know if that’s what he’s playing in concert now?
ME-.…uh….Let me see what his newest album is (look it up)…it’s called Tales of ’69, it came out last year.
GUY-Is that what he’s playing live?…cause that’s what they usually do…with the concerts……sometimes.
ME-...Yeah, I don’t know what he’s playing live, you should check his website, maybe they would know.
GUY-(puzzled look)…yeaahhh…so why do you think Kiss did that….why didn’t they name it Crazy CRAZY Nights?
ME-...uh…I don’t know…maybe two crazy’s was too much
GUY-(blank stare)…yeah…but why?……that’s weird isn’t it?…I think so…but the song is on the cd…mmmmm (leaves)
[about an hour later]
Phone call-(it was the same guy) ...uh..do you got the new Arlo Guthrie album?
ME-Weren’t you in here asking about that?
Phone call- um…uhh…..(click)
You know he was drunk when he called back, right?
And isn’t Arlo Guthrie opening for Kiss these days?
Arlo dons the Ace makeup these days and is actually playing guitar in kiss…. Shhhh… its a secret.
definitely belongs in the shovel club, PAAAAANG!
