glad to see the interviews back Sleazy and great interview Q's with Greg!
OMFG greg... you interviewed Jerry Garcia... that just bumped you up to "serious potential drunk & passedout guy I'd possibly take perverted advantage of at shows" (if i wasn't already married) status. I was way too young to experience being a deadhead so you are soooo lucky...Comment

I'm looking forward to this!
MediaGuy is someone I often see around at the shows but I don't know that much about him
I enjoyed doing my interview! Keep em coming SleazyComment

#6 part two: the Twilight Zone producer...
This was my first "break" story and has nothing to do with Jerry Garcia hah...
I was just in my twenties and snagging jobs working as a grip, gaffer or gofer on movie sets around Montreal. At one makeshift production office set up in a basement in old Montreal (I always seem to veer back to the Old City....) for what turned out to be a really bad movie (or so they said; I never saw it).
But I saw this name listed as producer, Buck Houghton... and it jangled a bell... so I did some research (pre-Google, Wikipedia or IMDB, remember) and realized I'd seen his name at the beginning of nary every episode of Rod Serling's Twilight Zone series while I was growing up (and probably as early as the week before).
So I contacted and snared an interview with the venerable old movie vet and managed to sell it to Starlog magazine. Still have a photocopy of that check, and copies of that issue somewhere...
For those geeks in the know, it was in the special summer issue that featured the veggie-gremlin from Gremlins II on the cover...
That's about it! Oh, and Starlog only took it after Twilight Zone magazine turned it down - wtf?!?
:D

Ultimately nothing really... everyone I knew crashed and burned out of it lol.
It was fun, though, and it's more of an MC job than a DJ job.
Again, I came in on the cusp - of the CD revolution, so at first it was a turntable dance, spinning disks, cueing and synching and announcing all at once. I had a great Frank Zappa/Herb Tarleck voice and dancers loved my individualized styles of announcing for each one...
Then CDs came in and the job got pretty boring on some levels.
But five nights a week is too much, and too long at it drives down your enthusiasm. You still sound the same, but the feeling's not there. People and dancers sense it. So ya gotta be the guy even when you don't feel like it, and you take a line of coke here, a beer there, and it just turns into your morning coffee... not a good habit to get into.
But to answer your question, what's great about it is the constant action, the all-night boogie, sorta guiding the mood of the evening to a pitch, orchestrating it like a conductor when you can.
I especially enjoyed the high tension nights with special shows, like bachelor events, hockey or post-concert nights (the only nights the boss would let us play Black Sabbath and heavier metal bands), as well as some features like Stephanie Evans' shows (she's the Alice Cooper snake chick).
Not a carreer and not one you stick to once you have babies...
:D

Yeah, hippies... like many things American I have a love/hate relationship with hippies.
On the one hand, this whole sense of human community, and support, and big cuddly hugginess...
I remember just trudging across this dry farmlot populated with 45,000 cars in Kansas at a Dead show. And these self-appointed watchers of dehydration with a spritzer bottle full from a cooler full of ice spraying me as I passed on the way to the facilities. It was a purely gratuitious act of kindness and compassion.
And any time any one needed that and some support, they almost didn't have to ask. It was acceptance and sharing on a kind level... it was relief from the intolerant, judgmental conservative mentality (which is in itself judgmenta on my part) I encountered all too often in the US.
It's funny 'cause Hippies treated me the same very often on first meeting me. I was bald. They thought I was a narc. My buddy was a long-hair, but still... we often saw one "real" cop narc with no hair and some poor schmuck from the drunk tank acting as his hippie "legitimizer" at Dead shows, sitting in a repo'ed VW bus smoking "stuff" that was fruit resin from a "bong" and saying it was "good shit", etc etc...
But the community was strong and wise and stuck together nicely.
But sometimes the whole "Heey Maaan" patchouli barefoot dirty smelly thing just got to be too much of a geek thing to me, so I craved crooner lounges and straight people, and my baldness always helped with that
When I got into adult I encountered the same spirit - the same communal "Us against Them" thing that, though we might have our beefs against each other, though we may compete in the same niches and media, keeps us bound somehow since we're all we've got, after us, it's the sharks, the mainstream, the FBI, the church committee or the neighbourhood decency squad, whatever...
I remember one fine moment after the Ashcroft version of 2257 when JD Obenberger at Qwebec Expo referred to the adult industry as the frontline in the fight for freedom of expression. I was a proud porn guy then.
Good morning GFY, btw :P

9. What?s the oldest cat you ever knew?
The oldest cat wasn't no cougar (wink, yeha you know who) but just a regular housecat I got when he was 1 and I was eleven.
I named him Jack because the minute my sister brought him home (she was always bringing home stray cats, but this one was going to be put down by the local pet shop for being too old for their inventory so they sold it to my sister for a dollar), it adopted me, and was lying on my belly while I was reading an interview with Jack Nicholson and watching a documentary on Jack the Ripper, when the wind slammed the door shut and the cat JUMPED off me, ripping into my skin with its back claws... go gifure. I named him Jack.
So yeah I had that cat until it was 26 or 27, when it kinda wandered off into the wild back alleys of Montreal, where he sorta reigned as a scourge to both toms and stupid, curious dogs, to die, i figure. Heard it was a cat "thing", that.
He was a pretty groovy animal, very gentle, intelligent, and civilized even. I mean, he would do stuff like dip his paw into a cup of milk to drink it, draining off any excess in the cup before he licked away... little things.
Anyhow I have a great picture of my daughter at 6 or 8 months, when we had a pro over for some Classic Baby pics with Cassandre in her little dress and all that, and during the session that big old cat, who loved her very much, was wondering what was up, so he hopped up onto the cushion next to where she was sitting. So I have this great picture of them, well taken, that is forever.
Actually, "Jack" was also my daughter's first word, before even daddy ("da" doesn't count).

10. How did you get involved with 2much?
Basically I've known Mark Prince since high school, around September 1980. We actually took "Data Processing" classes and learned how to enter data by making little holes in punchcards, frack me!
I knew him when he started his BBS he hosted on his home TRS 80, called "Datamate". People posted to each other and got to know each other and arranged GTs or Get-Togethers and even instant-messaged each other live.
Pretty impressive, but I wasn't so techy and the first time I got a computer was years later, a 386 IBM clone running MS DOS and a word processor!! I had joined the technological revolution and stopped typing on typewriters :P
Anyhow we went our separate ways when I ended up married and living in farmland, but he started contacting me about commissioning scripts for video projects for the web. I had experience in writing in general, and did some script doctoring at some point so I knew what he wanted without him explaining it.
And, since I had shooting and editing experience, he would get me to come down, learn the new tools and cut those together, driving down to Montreal on Friday and back three hours both ways to get back to the farm Monday morning at 5:00 AM.
Seeing what could be done, Mark hatched more project ideas and was basically ready for me when my marriage nuked out and I hopped a bus back to Montreal (my wife had totalled my car, but that's another story).
So I started in the old 2much offices 6 years ago learning first the programs to do what I wanted to do, and then new things you could do on the web. But the video thing was a little too ambitious, and I started wondering how come search engines had nothing about us... which took me back to words, and writing...
:D
