CHAPTER 50

Larry interviews Marc Maron for the same feature,

Marc: I’ll tell you something about some of the clubs in this city. I mean, they haven’t been what they used to be in a long time. The scene isn’t what it used to be. And they are very strong personalities, and that’s putting it lightly, you know, what they encourage and what they don’t. Each club picks their own little stable of people. You know what I mean? And it’s all based on that particular club owner’s sensibility. Club owners, for the most part, aren’t known to be visionaries, you know, and they want to keep asses in seats and they want to sell drinks. So you can pretty much believe that most clubs pander to competence, you know, if not pure fucking hackiness.
