Coop didn't mention the weirdest distraction during a show.
That honor would go to the Jackalope bar. While the Riverboat Gamblers were playing. they were showing a softcore porn movie in which a black ventriloquist dummy boned (pegged? ha ha) a bunch of women and killed them. I later found out the movie is "Black Devil Doll" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1139783/
It was great hanging out with Frau and Coop. It's always nice to meet and hang out with such knowledgeable and cool people. Special thanks to '82, tileboy, edwardnky, and tiger_mn for spinning on turntable.fm regularly, making it easier to separate the wheat from the chaff.
