3 Chords & the Truth Episode #5
We cheated a little since Echo was going to be gone this past weekend. This is a second episode from Times Square. A little double-dipping. But come on, you're getting this rubbish for free.

In this, a very special episode of 3 Chords & the Truth, Echo is all kinds of fired up. He takes it out on the tourists. We'd like to apologize in advance to the residents of Lawrence Kansas.

I promised I would be more of a team player and shut my big mouth this time. Then Echo introduced the show as "2 Chords & the Truth." He may be relegated next week.



Yes, we used to work at The Late Show with David Letterman. Good times and shenanigans aplenty at the Ed Sullivan Theater.

Bonus: The Ratso Rizzo scene we referenced can be seen here.

Another good one, guys..although to be honest, I didn't watch last week..sorry.. How about filming the next one on location in beautiful Nutley, NJ?..there are no tourists to speak of here.. well, except you guys, I guess. Sadly, there aren't any tall buildings to look at, but I could take you past the local Shoprite. That's where the action happens. Well, let me know and I'll make a bundt cake. Bring the cute kitty with you, Echo/Adam.

Thank you Cindy. Oh, doctor did you miss a barnburner last week. Cat orgies and anonymous gay sex were the topics. It was like Meet the Press.

I don't see any reason we couldn't do a 3 Chords in Jersey. I love going to the country. We could interview your kids. I better pack along my six-shooter in case there are bears.

said Johnny Wright on May 26, 2009 10:28 PM.

Johnny, the kids would love to be interviewed. Jack can recite for you all of the 4328 Pokemon characters ever created. Scintillating stuff..

Not sure about the bears, but we did have a possum in our trash last week. I think it would be a good idea bring the biggest gun you own.

"The ball goes down in the southern end."

Is that some sorta code for where the cruisin' has relocated?

said Tim on May 26, 2009 10:40 PM.

This video is a perfect example why some people hate New Yorkers. The arrogant "get out of my town" attitude - as if the city belongs to him. Side note: if you hate tourists so much, why did you decide to shoot a video in the most TOURISTY place in New York??? That's like going to Chinatown and then complaining about all the Asians.

Self-centered New Yorkers like you should try traveling to the midwest some time - you might find out that we aren't all stupid hicks and that we can actually afford to own a car AND a home for what you pay for 2 years rent in an apartment the size of a closet.

Finally, Lawrence Kansas is the home of Kansas University and is a great, kick-ass American town.

said ChrisM70 on May 26, 2009 11:48 PM.

KU is in Lawrence? Really? I had no idea...

said Johnny Wright on May 26, 2009 11:59 PM.

The previous comment (ChrisM70) is a perfect example of someone that doesn't understand that humor-based social websites tend to provide humor-based content.

Better stay clear of this one, Sarcastic One ... you're too sophisticated, m'lady.

said Tim on May 27, 2009 12:05 AM.

thanks for the warning Tim....
I try to avoid having a battle of wits with an unarmed person...

I've said for years that NY is in the import/export business...people move from all over the country and world to NY, then NY ships 'em out to the rest of the states.
So there are good odds that someone from Lawrence, Kansas moved to NYC...and, crazier still, vice versa.

1. I heard Times Square was going all pedestrian. Is this true?
2. Can you still get hookers there?
3. Cindy - What the hell was in your back yard? A human head? You can tell us. We won't say shit.

said E on May 27, 2009 12:10 AM.

You can't get a hooker in Times Square anymore. You can get 3 t-shirts for $10 bucks and a guy paints your name using dolphins and giraffes as letters, but no hookers.

You need to get a few blocks out of the Disneyfied blast range. So I've heard.

said Johnny Wright on May 27, 2009 12:25 AM.

I say....Who let all these asian chaps loose in chinatown......Most Curious.....

said Sheriff Pablo on May 27, 2009 12:27 AM.

I was wondering the same thing, Pablo. It looks like an Atlantic City junket made an unscheduled stop in Times Square.

said Tim on May 27, 2009 12:46 AM.

Hey, great causes like Saving the Jackelope draw a crowd--what can we say?

said sarcastic one on May 27, 2009 12:53 AM.

Plus Echo begged and begged for people to follow him.

Then they flock to NYC and he bitches that there are too many people from out of town around.

Go figure.

said sarcastic one on May 27, 2009 12:54 AM.

I found this funny.

Perhaps next episode would get more traffic if a monkey were involved?
You'll find plenty at the Central Park or Bronx Zoo....

said Baierman on May 27, 2009 10:24 AM.

Save the jackalope!

said Johnny Wright on May 27, 2009 10:27 AM.

JW,
When you think, jackalope....do you think Texas Ice Hockey?
Maybe, you should....

Truthfully I think of an animal that I want as a pet. Perhaps I should reevaluate my Texan amigo...

Is your name really Joey?

said sarcastic one on May 27, 2009 11:39 PM.

(sorry, Full House reference).

so, after reading this:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090527/sc_nm/us_climate_usa_sealevel_1

I'm wondering if you guys will need to break out the water wings and kayaks for the next installment?
Or maybe just a trip to Cindy's...she'll have fresh baked cookies and a guest house for you to stay in (see Scara's twitter pics for explanation)

said sarcastic one on May 28, 2009 12:01 AM.

Uhm...Adam/Echo....sorry brotha...get out of your town???...from the looks and sound of you, you beamed into NYC from Wonder bread world too at one point, so easy on the tourists.

Other than that, Olive Garden sucks and Letterman rocks. Peace out, cub scout.

said Mattybats on May 28, 2009 11:59 AM.

True, I beamed in from the most Wonder Bread of states, said state being Connecticut. But I've lived in New York for almost 9 years ... so I'm getting closer to the "official" resident card one receives after 10 years.

No if you'll excuse me, I have to go yell at these tallywackers who parked their fishing boat in the shadow of my yacht.

said Echowood on May 28, 2009 12:56 PM.

He's got a nautical themed pashmina afghan.

said Johnny Wright on May 28, 2009 1:07 PM.

JW -

Who doesn't?

said mattybats on May 28, 2009 1:28 PM.

Only people not worth their salt, Matty. Heathens.

said Johnny Wright on May 28, 2009 1:32 PM.

The unwashed masses...aye, aye.
