DJ jug Pound. But like people at that show would
be like actively mad at you. It was just like
a dive bar where guys were there trying to get drunk,
like drinking pitches were like professional drunk. Guys would literally
be like shut the funk up, like to you while
you were on stage, like, I ate so much ship.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
It's like that was always happening there. Every single time
you get on stage.

get a pizza. Sometimes they would just get free pizza
for the crowd, and then people would just completely ignore
you and eat the pizza.
