(8) Doin' The Anal Boogaloo (9) Mbishkodran Fields Forever (10) Ay-Yay-Yay-Yay-Yay-Yay (11) Lacrosse Bitches In provinces within Mbishkodra, people still talk about what they were doing the day 'Macedonian Daughters' was released. They were buying the album and listening to it, that's what they were doing. In an unprecedented move, just prior to being shut down by the Albanian Government, Radio Mbishkodra FM, broadcast the whole album repeatedly for 6 months, whilst in Yukostrakinsarta, twelve fans committed suicide as they felt that they did not deserve to live on the same planet as Giovanni & Sebastian. "They were quite right" guffawed Giovanni at the benefit gig for their families (Giovanni & Sebastian did not actually perform at the They Killed Themselves Because They Do Not Deserve To Live On The Same Planet As Giovanni & Sebastian Musikfest however, they did train the Gwako Anskiorala dancers to perform their rather risque "Lacrosse Bitches" dance routine)"Those ladies! Oh, those ladies! They were all I could bare," whined Sebastian,"Amateurs! I had to be so thorough with them, they kept me up all night but I feel I finally brought forth the effulgent Inskora ouvre and in the end everyone came good." The album had its controversial moments too. When invited to the Albanian minister of agriculture's daughter's wedding, Giovanni & Sebastian launched into an accapello version of 'Doin' The Anal Boogaloo' which caused the bride to call off the wedding and start a sordid three in a bed Inskora romp scandal with the two wily Albanian love rats. "It was my first album," recalls Tattoo the dwarf,"I remember my nerves were fraught as I served biscuits throughout the recording sessions. Giovanni finally broke the ice however. As I lay the Rich Tea biscuits upon the solid silver tray, he kicked the tray from my hands, picked me up by the scruff of my neck and threw me in a bucket which Sebastian had deliberately shat in. After that, we were friends for life - I can still hear them laughing and laughing and laughing at me - and spitting on me too." |
