Good ole Lincoln asked me, since you are already in the answering mood, his own questions, Far-L!

Let me begin..ahem (Don't shoot me later!)

How many times have you had accidental contact with another male actors penis? Be honest.

Why would a grown man wear yellow underwear?

Has a female adult actress ever asked for and smoked a cigarette while you were performing anal sex on her?


Have you ever been in a grocery store check out line buying candy, booze, baby wipes, KY, condoms and enemas with another man and no women?

Explain your actions upstairs with Ms Whip in Florida a few years back. Details please.


Have fun! Lol!

I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin', but I think Far-L is a cool dude:)

I have done that... Seemed like nothing when shopping but then the reality hits when you have to put the items on the counter to be rung up... Ohh well..

Good read so far.. :thumbsup

Niceeeeeeeeeeeee

Yo we met awhiile ago when i was in SD by the boardwalk KB was with me i think You gave me swag!!!!!!!!!!!!

San Diego in d'house!

I remember when Jeff came in and asked us if we could do a line of his "peeping" videos where he had secretly shot upskirts of girls on the beaches of SD.

We were scared to death of the content for legal reasons but we definitely liked Jeff. We gave him the best advice we could give at that time:

We told him "We can't do anything with this but you can distribute it yourself on the net which is better margins anyway compared to the glutted VHS market.

Two months later he came in driving a new car - "busting" out big time and schooling us in the biz.

Wasn't your original function at BA like in-house dj or something? And the HGV crew had dj Phil Aye and Luois whose dj moniker escapes me now... Many congrats on your rise to success and glory on your own merits btw!

(huge props to D$ and KB too for being influential members of that early scene too)

Just returning the favor for the compliment you gave me in Florida. :thumbsup

You gave me the hat i think!!!

Remind me to fire Lincoln today, then hire him back just so I can fire him again.

I will get to these as soon as i come out of the closet.

5. Is it true you went to the AVN awards this year with Tom Green? Are you friends with him?

Tom and my friend Mike performed as "Keeping it real Crew" at the AVN award show party in the VIP lounge. A lot of people don't know that Tom used to be a kid rapper and was kind of a Canadian Kid Rock with a couple of radio singles back in the day. The first album Mike ever produced was Tone Loc's first record back when we were just getting out of school. His next was the Beastie's "Paul's Boutique"... anyone who was back there can attest to how they got the room bouncing old school style.

Certainly would call Tom and friend we shared many laughs together at the AVN show. I still crack a smile thinking about his whole "how big is the truffle?" in the truffle reduction sauce riff he did on the waitress at the resturaunt before the show.

Before I go any further, many many thanks to Sleazy for the opportunity and Rochard for helping put the questions together!

I will do my utmost to keep the read entertaining, informative, and worthy of the Ambush legacy.

Great interview! Homegrown is seriously one of the most inspiring companies around, would actually love to meet with someone from HV in A-dam..

I know the good stuff will just keep coming from Far-L...Yeah Baby:thumbsup:1orglaugh

Unfortunately we won't be attending the Amsterdam show this year.

Always enjoyed the tales of real life Far-L adventures..
This will be a good read and so far i am not dissapointed.

and just for the record, i have met the hgv crew several times and always have a great time. Far-L is always there hanging with the crew making sure everyone is having a good time..

One thousand heartfelt thanks to all the people paying such fine compliments here!

I have authorized several people to remind me that I once had to pick up used condoms and clean the employee toilets for a couple of years if my head starts to swell about any of this.

Then of course there is that Mr. Teabaggins picture that is sure to pop up eventually...

Finally something good to read here!

You go go buddy!

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

PS. I remember a few stories myself. Some that can be told and some that CANNOT! :pimp

lol - if you are talking about that night after the first Player's Ball then no worries from me - that story never gets old...

Good read so far :thumbsup

Some day Far-L... Some day...

You are out of Portland, right?

Thanks! :thumbsup

Nope - right now out of Seattle most days - unless I am down in San Diego or Irvine Cali offices.

This is gonna be a great thread!

Far-L, why does your chick dig me?

:winkwink:

That waco texas shit is unreal. lol!

You didn't notice but I painted a big pheromone strip down your back as you walked in so that all the chicks would be on you like frosting on a cake. That is what we call Homegrown Hospitality.

Interesting read so far..

My favorite Dead song of all time...

May have to dig out my old photo albums and scan some pix of the Dead that I shot way back in the day (and night)...

ADG

want me to pull some outta the wordwork???? :eek:

hehe, just joking, i have a couple cool ones from our trip down south

great interview Far-L :thumbsup

I was really happy to see this Ambush interview. Beyond the fact that Homegrown and VS are about as close to family-status as two companies could be, I really admire Farrel independently of that. He has proven that his actions are consistent with his words (a rare quality in this industry), and he has helped keep the integrity/consistency of the HG brand. I thoroughly enjoy whenever we get a chance to speak, and his town crier impersonation gets belly laughs every time, without fail.

I was a little disappointed I didn't get to see monkey boy in Florida, but I am crossing my fingers for Vegas... a show isn't complete without it. :)

This will be one interview I'll read every word of - can't wait for the rest of the answers.

:thumbsup

Well damn, Im southern oregon myself.

anyway, well cross paths sometime with drinks in hand...



im sure youve got this before, but you remind me heavily, both your "voice", your ways, your attitude, your growth and most obviously, your image... of Abbie Hoffman.

You wouldn't mean this gorilla would you?

You were lucky Lani went home with YOU that night, her and half the other girls were all a-twitter over 12clicks and his sexy poker ways!

Looks like that dude with the earring is eyefucking the shit out of your wee wee.

Quite an interesting read :)

so THATS what it was! I definitely enjoyed the hospitality. :winkwink:

This is definitely a very entertaining read.

Looking forward to all the answers- Far-l has always been one of my favorite peeps.

sweeeeeeeeeeeet

LAJ was kinda fawning on Far-L in Florida too, I wonder if he's obsessed now?

omg I'm loving this interview!! Thanks for the great read!!!

I keep coming back to read the updates, great interview so far Far-L!

6. What is " Xplor Media?"

When we finally took over the assets of Homegrown Video from the bankruptcy proceeding naturally we were excited to get right down to business and get a new title out. We created a new box design and put together a strong bunch of scenes for it. After spending a bag of loot to get a bunch duplicated we sat down to make our first sales call to a big brick and mortar distributor.

"Hello"

"Hi"

"Who's this?"

"Hi, this is Farrell from Home-"

"Fuck you and fuck you mother!"

Click.

Every call we made. Either hung up on outright or chastized for a few seconds of abuse then hung up on.

Finally we realized that no one was going to take anything called "Homegrown Video" because the previous ownership had destroyed the goodwill of the company so thouroughly. In fact, we couldn't sell a distributor a piece of Homegrown for an entire year. The one sale we thought we made was returned.

Two things saved us from going out of biz almost faster than we had gotten into it. First, we hobbled along on our mail list to sell direct to consumers. Then, we created the name Xplor Media and we started putting together titles that were based on themes that were popular with our mailorder customers.

That is how we ended up being the first company to market series based on niche specific themes. We were the first company out there doing a cream pie series for example and hairy bush, plump, horny over 40, etc. (And this was a huge asset to us when we went from selling vhs videos off bbs sites to actually running a website since we were so deep in niche)

Once the Xplor brand had earned enough respect then we started bringing back the Homegrown and have kept working to make that our marquee brand, today, tomorrow, and beyond.

And you can tell by my wee wee which looks like I just went swimming after the Titantic went down that I have chosen "flight" over "fight" in response to the scrutiny...

7. How many women did you have sex with by the time you decided to stop counting?

I never counted because I never saw it as a competition in which a score needed to be kept. I have had a lot of beautiful, safe sex with wonderful women over the years. No doubt about it. I was born to porn. The only milestone that I can recall is when I realized that physical beauty had absolutely nothing to do with what made for a good or bad experience and that attitude and enthusiasm were everything. I was paid to have sex with the most beautiful porn stars that were about as exciting to fuck as a piece of knotted timber. I am sure someone could produce some of the shots of shoots I did with toothless biker chick amateurs that had seen better days but who loved sex and knew how to ring a guy's bell and left me walking dazed and euphoric for days.
