Man, were we DRUNK(With IAN)


So, about 3 and a half years ago Conspirators KEN AVIDOR, SEAN TENHOFF, and myself(DANNO) appeared on an early episode of Minneapolis' own cable access hit DRINKING WITH IAN(drinkingwithian.com).
And man...did we get drunk!
Then we filmed an interview.
I'm still not sure if thats a good premise for a talkshow.
ANYWAY....
The other day at the library I noticed DRINKING WITH IAN SEASON 1 on DVD. I checked it out, and lo and behold there was commentary on our episode.
So here are some exerpts of IAN and Co.'s thoughts on drunken cartoonists:

**The commentary of our segment begins with Ian saying: "Speaking of drunken buffoons..."
and he goes to suggest we were "not familiar with bars or drinking...except (Avidor)."
**He points out "Danno is the only one coherent...intelligible, and can talk....but has no mike."
As well, Danno is a "Good guy (Ian) still see(s) around town."
**They sat Ken next to Ian because of his long history in comics and his plan to run for (drunk) mayor of Minneapolis, hoping that would produce good interview material. However Ken was so inebriated the interview was "not spectacular".
**Ken is "Funny, despite how embarrassing he is". All of Ken's comments are "drunken gibberish" that was painful to edit.
**Sean had done a pre-interview with lots of good stories that were "gone" by the time we took the stage.
**The audience "couldn't give a shit" and Ian "couldn't blame them".
**The people doing the commentary wished they could just fast-forward thru our interview.
**Kens drunken rant on enviormentalism at the end is the "best part of the interview" but it's "no wonder he didn't get elected".
**Ian rated it as for sure one of the "fifteen bad interviews".

There you have...cartooning, drinking, and talking don't mix.
And thats one to grow on!
