I'll always remember seeing the Lounge Lizards in Brussels at the end of their tour. John started complaining that they were dead tired. He fell to the floor and started mumbling "This is our last one... this is our last one...". Then he started to tap that rhythm on the floor and all the Lizards fell in "This is our last one... this is our last one...". What followed was the most frantic demonic lounge jazz concert I have ever witnessed. Legends.
I ordered the "Fishing with John" series on DVD and showed an episode to one of my classes during a shortened-up day before vacation day. It became a cult favorite. Students I didn't know came by my class to ask when we were watching "Fishing.." again. Yeah, the Dafoe episode is great. Willem, with a creep grin: "I get a little sweet around bed time." Classic.

@@fishtolizard3930 Yo, Mr. WiseGuy. It's a different mouthpiece, I can see that. I was just curious about it, never seen that before. Like a trumpet mute. So, don't be rude kiddo.
John CTV s descriptions very largely are unrecognisable to what I'm thinking. Please be aware of this. I am not obsessing and trying to restart this. I'm not playing hard to get I'm genuinely completely turned off by the situation with Natalie I'm not showing what I want this is how I feel. I am not angry not really that is snippy talking. This is over for me as I will never unsee Natalie. I never said you can do better CTV said that. Not that I'm the only person in the world either. I am not a sociopath. Natasha
As funny as the JFK bit is, I hate Conan's nervous reaction to it. He always got that way in response to edgier humor from a guest. He plays it up somewhat for comedy, but there is obviously a genuine discomfort there.
I commented once on this individuals channel saying I have TS. Poor Natalie. Other than that I give her a wide birth and way more comfortable session than necessary. It's an industry mate. U want to pay for it you have my undivided disrespect
That’s not what happened here. Are you suggesting that “Fishing with John” is dumb? ...because it’s TV, too... fake fun public access television. Is TV dumb? If so, then why are we watching old TV clips on UA-cam; the new fake fun public access television? Maybe we should all be watching PBS... but then, there’s “Caillou,” which stands a good chance of making kids and supervising parents dumb, or just driving us all a little more nuts for the trouble of watching such annoying, snowflake drivel.
Do ya think Jimmy Fallon knows who JD Salinger is? that he is a poet? and has not been seen for 45 years? .......But then, I don't believe Conan knew either. pre set set up. fooled me for a sec. hmph noice one mate. took the piss right out of me.

Stranger Than Paradise. Great film!
John Lurie is legend.

“Nope.. Wife hit it with the cahh”
I love Fishing with John, but are you trying to inspire our youth by showing them glorified drug delusions..?
awesome teacher
Lurie, total Jazz in everthing he does.
John is definition of awesome
John Lurie is hilarious. I would have loved to see him with Castro.
...playing baseball.
John Lurie: The epitome of cool.
John is like my dream man
So this is the guy that has narrated a few Mafia documentaries....COOL!!
I looked for him aswell mate. His voice sounds dangerous!
Honestly
Perfect narrative voice for Mafia documentaries!!
Lurie, you are so beautifully sane.
Totally. Very well said and written.
get well soon
Ohhhhhh! I'm a fan now! He plays music too! 😂😃😄
Composes and Plays some of the Most Amazing Music. “Voice of Chunk” Forever!
conan and john are both geniuses, apparently.
Interesting. As he got older he began to resemble Monty Clift, as Monty got older.
*So this the dude that does the narration for the A&E mobsters series...*
Greg Penders from Oz!!!
I saw the movie “down by law” its the first i have ever come across him. And i was caught by his mannerisms and i thought i bet he is a musician .
I dont get the jfk castro joke. Someone wanna enlighten me.
JFK and Castro were enemies. Cuban missile crisis, bay of pigs, etc. Castro is a suspected source of JFK's assassination.

Can someone tell me about that add-on part, on his saxophone? What's that for?
...asks the dude who calls himself “Bearded Jazzman.”

It's a different mouthpiece, I can see that.

So, don't be rude kiddo.
Looks like a cover so the reed won’t get damaged
Yeah like Cody said, it's just a cover that goes over the mouthpiece, when you're not playing. To protect the reed from getting bumped and chipped.
wtf John is my ideal boyfriend
...and much older brother... or father for us.
gyp rosetti.
So he's like the Fishin' Musician (from SCTV) only...not

John Lurie was 100 years ahead of Conan. its sad to watch a smart guy try to dumb himself down for TV
ceounicom Conan went to Harvard

Kleinequietboy Kleinequietboy Conan O’Brien went to Harvard and wrote his thesis on American literature

you would think the fact that he would even have someone like John Lurie on would clue you in on who Conan Obrien is and what his interests are
JD Salinger wrote a classic, I'm sure they know who he is.
