Title: My Morning Straightjacket and the uninformed...
Post by: vwxg14a on Aug 31, 2010, 12:24 PM
So I am at work and I decided to stream the American Dad episode while working.  I am 48 and just hired a an accountant who is 22.  While training her, I have the episode streaming in the background.  She asks if I like American Dad, which I reply not really, but I love this episode.  I said it described how I felt when I saw the boys on Conan for the first time 7 years ago.

She replied, "that was a real band on the episode, I thought they were made up".  

wow.

Here's a 178 MB .avi file of the episode without commercials.  I think the link is still good.

Actually she redeemed herself and said that she should take a listen to them.

Converting one fan at a time.

Good, good! World domination coming up! This seems to be a common mistake though, I've heard it from more than one person, it's a bit weird (for many reasons) but especially considering the clip from Okonokos at the end, but maybe people didn't watch until the end?

And my personal journey of conversion to the House of MMJ will continue with the T5 shows.  I have 2 tickets for each show and I plan on dragging one friend a night to a show.  Also, my daughter and her boyfriend will be seeing their first MMJ shows (Z and EU).  

I think we should be like the old Breck commercials, they told two friends, and they told two friends, and so on...

Of course, maybe we should keep it our secret, because I have been able to get tickets for every show I wanted to go to so far.

I remember when that episode first aired there were A LOT of people that thought (and probably still do) that it was a made up band. Which to me is weird because of the LIVE CLIP they show at the end...LOL

Also, MMJ on ACL re-airs next weekend on PBS!
