situation room story than an anderson cooper 360 story, anderson ran with it. i know three things one, if i was in charlotte, north carolina, tonight, i would be going to the chop shop to see man-man on tour. two, i would steal that tunic during soundcheck. three, we finally have an answer to a question that a young balloon boy posed many, many years ago as he awaited his interview with wolf blitzer. say hi to wolf. wolf dish. hi. hi, guys. who the shall wolf? i ll tell you who the hell wolf is. he is an enigma. he is a muse, and forever in song as a vodka-swilling baby eater, he shall be remembered. all right h, i know a few things. one, if i was in tucson tonight, i d go to the man-man concert at club congress and bet i d get in for free. two, i know a band called cryptic murmurs once wrote a song about you. maybe you re jealous because my song kind of kicks your song s butt.
sleeping baby at night. you might think is typical indy rock imagery, but oh, no, you re wrong. the congress isn t about any wolf. it is so much of the art that surrounds us inspired by none other than wolf blitzer. oh, yes, let s hear some more, shall we? wolf cuts loose in the barrio lemon vodka mixed with churros scratched the 8 ball watching girls through the window baby dance inside the belly grooving to the cumbia beat teethes out a soothing melody hang on, did wolf blitzer just drink vodka and eat the baby? sounds like wolf ate the baby and a churro, as well. but we trained, we don t assume. so we asked ryan, the front man of man man, for the real story. he confirmed that when he began writing the song the basic story line was about a wolf that eats a baby but that premise seemed a bit passe.
so, quote, i thought it d be more interesting to reimagine the wolf being wolf blitzer sneaking into houses and devouring children. just picturing wolf s calm face. the kind eyes, smiling gray beard with a baby dancing in his belly while drinking lemon flavored vodka. still gets to me. now, i don t know if you noticed in that picture there, but the lead singer of man man is wearing a custom made tunic that is emblazoned with multiple wolf blitzer heads. how do i get that was my first question? as ryan notes, it turned out gorgeous and wolf looks very handsome and devilish and might i say hungry. ladies and gentlemen, i know three things. one, if i was in charlotte, north carolina, tonight, i would be going to the chop shop to see man man on tour. two, i would steal that tunic during a sound check. three, we finally have an answer to a question that a young balloon boy poised many, many years ago as he awaited his interview with wolf blitzer.
