I'm guessing it's:

IDIOT---->Microphone of some sort------->Dusty valve box with knobs--------->Recording thing.

the correct chain is:

autistic genius -> neumann u-something -> probably avalon -> 192

How does autism effect his work? How can this be considered genius? What am I missing? Hidden metaphors? It all seems amusingy literal to me.

Cherry pie? A Midget...midget....midget...midget....

The most hilarious moments in music, ever. One after another.



Unless, of course, he IS a comedy genius who knew that it would sell and sell because people would buy it ironically, while he laughs his way to the bank. If that's the case, he's a genius, autistic or not.

Still, hat off to him trying something 'different', I suppose.

Damn, I saw the thread and had the audacity to think I could be the first to make a joke.

Hilarious guys, thanks for making me laugh.

actually a friend of mine was on that session. r. kelly to a u87 vintage, of course, instead of a mic stand he had a 14 year old girl hold the mic whilst he peed on her and then i think that did go into a 737 to a 192 to pt. and the crazy thing was he made uday husseins monkey watch the whole thing. really wild. seriously.

is that his name? uday. uday really did used to take advantage of girls while his pet monkey watch. whoa!
