Vice's Marshall Headphones: On the Road With Tim Harrington Does Nashville

Posted by on Wed, Dec 21, 2011 at 4:15 PM

Man, this one has been in the works for a hot minute! Back in May, the late lamented Glenn Danzig's House hosted a show featuring Natural Child, Big Surr and Cy Barkley and the Way Outsiders. I mentioned the day of that some outsiders (and not just the Way Outsiders) would be in attendance, and those out-of-towners happened to be Les Savvy Fav's Tim Harrington and his Vice camera crew. Harrington & Co. shot the above installment of Marshall Headphones: On the Road, which features clips from the aforementioned show — at which Harrington shoved an empty beer box onto my dome ... good one, I guess — not to mention a lengthy interview with legendary Nashvillian, road dog and Gram Parsons-burner Phil "Mangler" Kaufman, and a tour of Third Man Records courtesy of TMR honcho and brand-new Cream advice columnist Ben Swank.

Aside from the Kaufman interview being absolutely fantastic — talk of Charles Manson, the Stones, Gram and more — the video also features these priceless gems (spoiler alert!): Useless Eaters' Seth Sutton pissing in a mailbox, Natural Child's Seth Murray pissing on the ground (yes, the urine trail continued to run, clearing its own path through the crowd), Swank vomiting something that is roughly the color of ill-prepared Salisbury steak, some old-fashioned Danzig's crowd-surfing, views from within TMR's mysterious crow's nest and Harrington explaining a practice known as "whale watching." I am proud of Nashville. Enjoy!
