Brokeback Companion Piece
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
One of the best concerts of all time?* Possibly. OJ called me last night after a "dude's night out" viewing of Brokeback Mountain, asking me about Just Be Friends lyrics. For those who don't know, Just Be Friends is Je Suis France's alter ego where we turn into gay, fucked up on drugs, dirty as hell cowboys and sing cowboy songs. Six dudes, one acoustic guitar, two bales of hay, one fake campfire, one big bottle of whiskey, and lots of beer.
I found a video tape of it last night and laughed my ass off. Probably the funniest part was OJ's botched guitar solo during Ice's song. Here's the setlist:
1. Theme Song
2. Crog's Banker Song into Every Rose Has It's Thorn
3. OJ's When You're Alone You Got a Bone It Needs a Home
4. Ice's Song
5. Blue Shadows
6. OJ's Covered In Drugs/Bugs
7. Dark's I Ain't Drank Whiskey Since Baby Jesus Pissed In My Eye
8. Jeff's the Only Arabic Cowboy
9. Theme Reprise
*Our 2nd show was so bad that we never played again. Part of the blame goes to the sound and another part goes to Robbie Beers' negativity and the rest falls on us.
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
