Bunky @ Bowery Ballroom

The best news ever came when Bunky was added to two of Sufjan Stevens' recent NYC shows. I'm already a fan of their album and legend has it they put on a great show. That's what the people of their hometown San Diego say anyway. I got the chance to find out on Sunday (August 21, 2005), and it's true!

It was pirate night at Bowery Ballroom (said Sufjan who headlined the show), so Bunky told pirate jokes in between songs. Here's one someone transcribed in the comments of another post:

A pirate walks into a bar. The bartender says "Excuse me, sir, but I that you have a ship's steering wheel sticking out of your pants."

The pirate nods and says, "AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH, it's driving me nuts!"
