Can you imagine a guy breaking into your car, and he steals your guitar case cause he thinks its a guitar, and he gets it home and opens it up and theres a rake inside it, an electric toilet plunger and a dog skull? That actually happened. – Eugene Chadbourne
I want to be taken seriously as the type of musician that plays stuff like an electric rake. I mean, how seriously do you take someone like Spike Jones? They take him pretty seriously – a really good musician who made a great contribution in terms of humor, which is part of what I try to do too. – Eugene Chadbourne
