A Google search shows that Cudi tweeted that song once.

I just had a major eargasm while laying in bed. I had just woken up from a party the day before and i put on Alvin Row and during the 'run' part a constant shiver down my whole body and it was amazing! It also happened during the 'dear alvin' part...

I think this is probably an error, because the band was scheduled to play the Madison Theater on July 18, 2013, as one of the make-up shows after the first few cancellations, but then that date was also cornpilled (and the actual date ended up being December 5)

So here is my hypothesis on where the famous Purple Bottle intro came from ...

the quote comes up at the 4:30 mark check it out friends ...

The "keys to the kingdom" bit?

The lyric, "I've got the keys to the kingdom / and the devil can't do me no harm" is taken from a Washington Philips song. It's a cover!

There's also some intros where they played a snippet of We Bid You Goodnight, a traditional folk song covered by the Grateful Dead.

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:21 am

Thanks for pointing that out. I couldn't place that part, but yeah it's a sort of medley of covers. When was the last time the AC did a cover? Can't seem to remember.

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 09, 2014 4:05 am

They did 2 Nirvana covers: On a Plain circa 2004 and Polly, the b-side to the Purple Bottle single. Other than that I don't know of any, but they could very well exist.

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 09, 2014 4:28 am

I love the on a plain cover. Do you remember when there was all that hype about Amazon.com listing some release with an AC cover of Neutral Milk Hotel's "communist's daughter"? (or perhaps some other song)

That was weird.

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 09, 2014 4:34 am

that was my favorite Dragnet episode as a kid, almost made me want to paint half of my face blue as well until I realized people would think I was just a huge Braveheart fan or something. Thanks Mel.

Made me listen to the whole thing. Daily routine live circa that era is so beautiful :negative:

the untitled song from the Other Music boot never ceases to blow me away. that song is like a blanket of emotion

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 10, 2014 8:50 am

wait why does avey look like hes not doing in anything in all but one shot in the rosie oh on conan video again? and the conan thing... i nvr got the verdict on that

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:27 pm

He never really had much to do when playing that song to begin with besides backing vox, but he doesn't even sing here (was this immediately before or after one of those strep-throat periods? Can't remember)

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:30 pm

He should have done the Bob Nastanovich role and just danced around throughout, that's what he did during the live shows from that time

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 10, 2014 5:13 pm

I'm sorry, I don't even dislike Centipede Hz that much that video has to be the most boring of all AC live videos. Poor Avey.

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 10, 2014 9:09 pm

it just seems rlly awkward, and the camera is forced to avoid avey almost completely. seems passive aggressive that he wouldnt figure out a way to look like he was doing something

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 10, 2014 9:32 pm

iirc that video happened right before the initial cancellations happened, and Avey is like that in the video because he was starting to get sick/couldn't sing

dud · Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 10, 2014 11:23 pm

^yeah yr right, as i remember they weren't even supposed to do rosie oh

Post **Posted:** Fri Jul 11, 2014 1:01 am

poor ave's he could not have look more bored ... at least he's a pretty face C:::

A couple of my favorite non-fans' reactions to hearing AnCo:

My sister, hearing Turn Into Something: "These people sound like they don't bathe."

My roommate, after I listened to Visiting Friends while I took a shower: "What were you listening to in there? It sounded like you were getting abducted by aliens."
