Fred Armisen Holds “Old Punks” Focus Group on John Mulaney’s Netflix Show
The post Fred Armisen Holds “Old Punks” Focus Group on John Mulaney’s Netflix Show appeared first on Consequence.
A number of legendary Los Angeles punk rockers appeared on the Tuesday (May 7th) episode of the new Netflix show John Mulaney Presents Everybody’s in L.A. Members of Fear, X, Minutemen, Germs, and more were featured in an “Old Punks” focus group hosted by Fred Armisen.
The focus group included Minutemen members Mike Watt and George Hurley, Fear frontman Lee Ving, X’s Exene Cervenka and DJ Bonebreak, Germs drummer Don Bolles, Avengers leader Penelope Houston, Cramps/Gun Club guitarist Kid Congo Powers, Saccarine Trust’s Joe Baiza, the Plungers’ Trudie Arguelles-Barrett, and Johnny Ramone’s widow Linda Ramone.
The funny segment began with Armisen driving around L.A. and gathering up all the senior punks for a focus group. Once it started, Armisen asked a number of questions like, “What is the punk-est type of food?” To which Linda Ramone answered, “Pizza,” and Ving exclaimed, “Budweiser, the King of Beers!”
The veteran punk rockers then lamented being spit on at shows, with Ving declaring, “Any motherf**ker that spits on me, I wanna kick the shit out of them!”
When the focus group was done, the punks got together for an all-star jam session to perform an original song called “Ghosty Ghost Place Superstar,” with Cervenka and Ving taking the lead on vocals.
The full episode, which also featured a performance by Joyce Manor, is currently streaming on Netflix.
