Not sure if it was posted, in this video he explain the Eskimo story. He says it happened after the record company asked them (Juniper) to write uptempo songs. And he almost cracked his friend's guitar (to the radiator)...

Hey guys I've been lookin' at this thread on and off and thought it's about time I contribute something. I found this vid on YouTube and it was actually by chance but it also shows Damien performing from quite an interesting angle. There's also a Leonard Cohen reference and you actually hear quite a bit of Lisa, enjoy!

Just accidentally found another I Remember story:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=M5ZFWUUn3...elated&search=

never heard it before, mentions things that are new to me, like that he played I Remember for his band (Juniper) and that they hated it because it was not heavy enough lol!!!

I added the Wank Test Story to my 4shared folder. It's a file with Vyv's Never Leave and then that story at the end. It's super funny. Basically he says that if you're into someone and wanna know if it's for real, go to the toilet, have a wank and see what you feel for the person once you're back. He also talks about women having their menstrual cycles, while men have daily cycles and millions of sperm

Thanks borneoman! (and I love how you even named it "wank story" )
I've never heard that before.....oh gosh that is soo funny!!! daily cycles, misunderstanding the natural process


Sorry if this is a repeat...I'm getting a bit confused as to what's been posted . It's about Cross-eyed bear....and while it's not funny, I quite like it because it's so detailed....

At the Philly gig in May he talked about Grey Room a little bit and if the tape ever sees the light of day you can get a better idea of what I'm talking about.

Aaaanyways, he basically said that it was about being in one of those moods where you just want to feel sorry for yourself and you think life sucks and that things can't really get much worse. Then you get a phone call or something of the like from someone that needs your help and they've got their own problems and it sort of puts things into perspective for you. It makes you snap out of your funk and to stop being so selfish because other people need help too.

(something like that)

I 'm not cutting the grass anymore"

it seems like lisa is kinda hard on damien. telling him that he only talks about himself, and now hating his metaphors! perhaps something unexpected broods beneath her angelic facade?
