Morbid Obscenity

In 2006, upon learning with surprise that their dear friend Mr. Hinty was apparently stunningly fat (they’d possibly been too intoxicated to notice previously), the Unbookables decided to take to the stage, getting together their posse with only one faint cry of, “Hey guys, I know: we’ll put on a show!” Like modern-day drunken Partridges, they suited up and hit the stage at the Skyline Comedy Cafe in Appleton, WI with Doug Stanhope as their ringleader (some might say “sleaze wrangler”), aiming to raise the money that Hinty would need to ratchet down his belt size. Unbookables Sean Rouse, Lynn Shawcroft, and Andy Andrist, along with a cameo by Mr. Hinty himself, offended even themselves, with Stanhope marveling after one set, “‘Klonopin is like a warm hug from your mother that doesn’t lead to sex’?” Yes, dear listeners, this is what you’re in for. Not for the faint of heart, fastidious, or wildly successful, the Unbookables are ready to take the mic and shut the joint down, all in the name of almsgiving. The resultant CD, Morbid Obscenity, is limited to 1500 copies, all autographed by the filth-mongers themselves. All proceeds go to medical costs for Mr. Hinty.
