Keyboard Cat: Endgame

Fatso sure did have a good run there for a couple of weeks. It seems only yesterday that the ghost of this musical feline had returned from 1987 and was deemed to be having the Best Week Ever. But all good things must come to an end, and so it is with Keyboard Cat. It was a matter of time before someone decided that re-creating this sensation with an angry, unwilling, and belligerent cat would somehow be a funny concept. So, like "The Landlord 2" or a million "Lazy Sunday" spoofs that came before, our friend of the last few weeks has now been retired to the virtual graveyard, executed by some faceless moron with a video camera. RIP, Fatso. I will try to remember the good times.

IT/TI

It has been a long time coming for ten minutes of comedy, but IT/TI is finally here! This split 7" finds myself and my good friend "Lookout" Joe Hasan each mining our own territory to dig up comedy gold. We are working on putting together a release party here in NYC, but for the time being you can have this treasure to admire on your mantle for the basement price of $6.00 (includes shipping). You will get the fabulous artwork seen here done by the legendary Neil Numberman, and one vinyl piece of heaven. Limited to 200 copies. It's yours by PayPal to forrestsimmons@gmail.com. Otherwise, stop by my apartment with half of a large Papa John's pizza. That works too.
