Freaky Dan Pt. 1 (Pt. 1) (Live)

from The Juvenalias by William Remmers

lyrics

9TH GRADE

Entering High School, I was given the opportunity to perform in our literary magazine's open mic nights, five each year. This is a live recording from my second-ever of those nights. Eventually, I would always perform with a full band, but at the time, we didn't have an act together so I would do these insane solo performances of whatever odd stuff.

This gives you a good insight as to particular features of these performances: hecklers, responding to hecklers, making mistakes, calling out mistakes that had just been made. The school cafeteria was an unforgiving venue, especially when your audience were some 40-53 upperclassmen standing as far away from you as possible. Or there was the hardcore band (yes, this was Long Island) that chased me all throughout this year. For some reason I was a threat to their dominance.

You'll also see that I don't even remember how to play my own song, I was making it up as I went along in the first place anyway, and it's not like I was going to listen to it over and over just to learn it.
