Bop: Do you ever start writing a song and then think, "Oh no, I can't record that; it's crazy"?
JC: Everyone's telling me now, "A.D.I.D.A.S. is great," and I'm like, "Are you kidding me?" I just did it for fun. I did it cause I had it in my system and I was just getting it out. We did that song in under two hours, and it turned out to be a lot of fun. It's so much fun to play live. It's silliness, but it's so much fun.
This quote reminded me of a story by Helen in which JC tells Chris that Digital Get Down was a ruse, and he was shocked when the guys asked him what chord it's in. Chris doesn't find this revelation amusing. "It's funny every time we sing it," JC says. I laughed and laughed. And am now beyond charmed that JC sees A.D.I.D.A.S. for the campy, irreverent romp it is and seems genuinely surprised that people are taking it seriously.
( From the same interview: )
I'm working on a list of places I'd like to see in LA. So far:
-the Ralph's where Joey and Lance went shopping for the All Access special
-an In 'n Out Burger
-a Trader Joe's, if there is one that far south
-JC's diner/deli thing in WeHo
-a Jack-in-the-Box
And some other places that I swear won't have anything at all to do with food.
The interior of the Spreckles Theater (with thanks totallories for the link) reminds me of the stage set the boys were photographed on as marionettes. I'm smiling like an absolute loon just thinking about JC up there. No strings indeed.
( This quote has also made the rounds, but I really love his philosophy on the club tour. )
Today was lovely, relaxing. Did Kickbo and grocery shopping with Miranda, read oogobs of TrickC, and will now go watch The House on Haunted Hill with Jon. The things I do for Geoffrey Rush.
