I'm Big Business and i approved this message.

12/15/2008 6:10:45 PM

lol good lord public access in the 90s was glorious

they just don't have the variety of goofballs they used to

from that "how to play metal" show to "et rock" to "dan savage and the sex kittens"

12/15/2008 6:18:39 PM

METAL METHOD with SLEDGE

("get yourself a guitar with some humbucker pickups, because single coil pickups are for wussies")

the big bad show was terrible but i couldn't turn away

the ET ROCK guy made a record this year...there are copies for sale at michael spikel's used vinyl shop in the flea market mall

12/15/2008 6:30:05 PM

i remember him

i won some contest that got me a segment on the show, and i called him and was like "are we gonna write something or what"

and he told me the show was improv

and i said "i know that, but at least give me a framework so i know what to where and what state of mind to be in"

because it wasn't straight improv, they had costuming and stuff

dude never called me back

12/15/2008 6:31:43 PM

the LP show where the local cats flow

gossard and I would get in the LP live chatroom during the show, and we had him so convinced that a crowd of people gathered in the Owen Underground TV room every week for his show that he wanted to come out and do a show there.

What about Tim Duncan? His show was just him staring at the camera for 30 minutes and taking calls of people telling him his show sucked because all he did was just sit there.

The phone calls on the Big Bad Show were hilarious...
caller - hey am i on the air?
jon - yep, you're live
caller - FUCK

I <3 the Big Bad Show

"...IN THA SNOW!"

Was Larry Pickett really a narc?

Quote :

"rom that "how to play metal" show "

The Metal Method was awesome! Maybe the world is ready for a "How to Thrash" hour.

ET Rock was absolutely terrible. One of my roommates liked it, but he wouldn't admit it. He was always looking for a reason to put it on. For example, if you said anything he didn't like he would switch it to ET Rock and claim it was your punishment, but I know he really just wanted to watch it.

9/11/2009 11:50:47 AM

haha

sometimes it looked like that dude would just go to the beach and film girls, put his music behind it and call it a day

9/11/2009 12:01:03 PM

I lived in Raleigh for 22 years and I have no idea what you're talking about. Perhaps a thorough explanation will jog my memory.

Wait, now I do. Actually I think the show came on channel 10 after WWF? Or am I getting stuff mixed up. Local access in Raleigh was ok, but local access when I lived in Florida in the 2000s was even better. Shows about the local vampire scene and LARPing. Awesome.

there were two LP shows

one was on cable access, and one was on wncn

i wish to reiterate that the big bad show was fucking awful, and not in a good way

monty the mechanic, however, was sort of genius

9/11/2009 12:58:34 PM

I don't know what's going on here

But this shit makes me want to cry

Larry Pickett was the poor man's mix of that Sway dude from MTV and Sal Masekela

9/11/2009 1:01:04 PM

I thought that was just one guy

9/11/2009 1:01:50 PM

What about that mentally challenged woman that had a talk show?

jesus lord

i hope that was a pro bono job

9/11/2009 1:06:00 PM

Oh, public access

There used to be a local wrestling talk show that came on the PA channel broadcast out of Mt. Airy. My friends and I called in all the time in middle school. I pretended to be the ghost of Louie Spicolli for an entire summer.

lol...It's like an 8th grader who just got his first computer is trying to get into graphic design.
Pro tip: If your website looks like shit nobody is going to hire you to do design work.

We had a local news show hosted by a guy whose name I'm pretty sure was Frank Rouse. Unfortunately Frank Rouse was just a little less articulate and attractive than Tom Carvell of those unfortunate ice cream ads.

8/15/2010 1:26:23 PM

I still wanna know why he was considered a narc.




I'll be honest with you guys, I've met LP a few times (and pranked his show at least twice) and he was always a nice guy regardless. But yeah, his designs kinda make me cry on the inside.

8/15/2010 2:00:39 PM

On the set of Ed
