Less Queer Than His Fans: Buddyhead VS Mountain Goats

Posted by Chip Norman on July 12, 2009 at 3:37 am


John Darnielle might be a pussy, but he ain’t no poseur. So don’t worry yourself with leaving comments about how he’s a pussy; we all know he goes to bed at 8 o’clock. What’s important here is that John is a rad dude that keeps it real.

Do we listen to his music? Gods, no! But neither does he. John’s too busy being a professor of metal. In fact, this idol to the nerds recently wrote an entire book on Black Sabbath! Travis really wants someone to read it to him every night as he lays down for bed, his hopes are set on the author.

Anyway, when I told John Darnielle I was with Buddyhead, his face lit up and you could practically see pussies getting nuked in his eyes. [Editors note: Chip is the closest things Buddyhead has to Kim Jong-il, cept instead of dropping H-bombs on America like Kim Jong wants to, Chip focuses on dropping the Buddyhead name on nerds in bands and any chick with a laptop, job and wireless connection - Hey man, we don't blame him. Take what you can get champ!]

Anyhow… Mountain Goats love Buddyhead! But he’s still a dork and so we were going to publish his phone number and home address. It only took one look at his creepy message boards to forget about that idea. Mountain Goats fans only live in diaries and the deepest, darkest parts of the internet, but one of them could figure out how to come into the real world and John wouldn’t last an hour. Those would be some nasty murder-suicide reports. And the surviving fans would be after Buddyhead in revenge.

NO, THANK YOU!

So, instead of incurring the wrath of the world’s most dangerous dorks, we’ll just call it Family Night here at Buddyhead and let you watch Huxxxtable interview John Darnielle.
