What could go wrong if I swallowed a microphone?
Brilliant post. Pure dead brilliant.i am monster face wrote:I had the artist blow bubbles into the bucket with a straw we grabbed for one of those 44 ounce sodas at the gas station (oddly enough, named Kum&Go). She's a small british girl and didn't understand the big manly bubbles I needed her to blow so I had her hold the microphone underwater while I blew through the straw. She was kind of freaked out about the whole experience.

I knew you'd beat me to it!!! I've got it at home on one of the Fracasos CD-Rs... the sickest is when the mic finally comes out of the throat and the music goes "full bandwidth"... it sounds exactly like the music was vommited to life... ew... going to listen when I get home.InvalidInk wrote:ha this is funny stuff.
My bandmate did something similar to what you tried in an old band he was in. They were recording a song live and he had a cheap radio shack lavalier mic in his mouth. They recorded the song and he would open and close his mouth periodically through out the song. I still haven't heard it yet but I really really want to.

That's the way to do it. You need one of those little tiny mic's with the transmitter built inside, like a spy mic you'd see in a movie. Swallow it and some Epicac syrup, then barf it up and start in with the death metal. Rahh!markmeat wrote:I knew you'd beat me to it!!!

According to Al Kooper, in his fantastic book "Backstage Passes" which has now been re-printed, combined with another book of his, on the first Blood, Sweat and Tears album they made the drummer insert a very small mic anally and drummed on his stomach with his hands on one song. I really recommend the Al Kooper book, my local library had "Backstage Passes" when I was a kid. Very interesting read, I don't remember what the new edition is called..
