Bob's Bizerko Lounge
|
The "Fright Night" was a
production of the grain achohol crowd in the early 70's. The show
was called "Bob's Bizerko Lounge." Ran Saturday night,
very late. Imagine the condition the players were all in!
Came from a comic skit in the record library that Paul Warhanick used to
play on the a.m. show. Characters included Fat Jack and Emma Caulfield. Even Ramon himself was dinged for losing his temper .... SGM Ed Waddell for being " overly liberal" and anyone else who had cross their paths during the week. The show was live .... so just think of the mistakes or mis-statements that could have been made. It was a great "in crowd" put-on while it lasted .... how they got away with it is still a mystery. Woody's show was supposed to end on a certain date but one of the TV directors ran the tape for the closing of the last show (which showed these two giant hands -- Woody's -- lifting up the haunted house and fading away like an old soldier) several days early. This actually wound up prolonging the life of the show since the long-term schedule was now off... This of course, gave Woody many more opportunities to ad lib his lines... a pair of jump boots found at the Venado Beach Drop Zone, several more references to Bob's Bizerko Lounge, etc |
