The Real Congregation :: That Good Time Feeling :: 01/31/12
Hey guys, Cap here. This isn’t just another day at Nerdy Show. It’s an understatement to say that we’re forever changed by the loss of Triforce Mike. But with all the sadness we’ve undergone, both among the team and the community, we thought some levity was in order. This isn’t business as usual for Nerdy Show, but in this bleak hour, it seems only right that we liven things up with music. Not only does Marc have a regularly scheduled Real Congregation for you, but also he recorded an amazing song in Mike’s honor, and I think you’ll agree that he’d have loved it – “The True Story Of Triforce Mike & Marc With a C”
Marc With a C knows what you need.
You were sitting there saying to yourself, “I sure wish that I could hear some new Guided By Voices, and maybe an obscure Chubby Checker song. And I want to hear them on The Real Congregation. And if they could somehow pull off doing an interview with mash-up pioneers that have been at it since 1986, like, I don’t know, say… The Evolution Control Committee? That’d be pretty cool. But I wouldn’t be totally happy unless I could also hear an interview with MC Wreckshin about playing live shows in Korea. Oh, and they’d have to play a couple of their patented Strange Records Of The Week. And unless all of that somehow falls into place and occurs right this very second? I’m gonna find some way to cross a hamburger with a dolphin until it becomes a Hamdolphin or something. I don’t know.”
You’re welcome, internet.
