Everything You Know Is Wrong - 1975 - 5/10
Filmed “adaptation” of a comedy album by the Firesign Theatre,
Scattershot ramble through a minefield of ideas, speculations, fantasies.
Canines in space, UFO’s, the comet Kohoutek, grief I don’t know.
The troupe lip-syncs their original LP, visuals are cheap.
I saw this with a stoned out crowd, myself included, and quickly wished I had taken Barbs instead.
Essentially a 1960’s ensemble, the Firesign Theatre was popular with acidheads in the day.
This recent revisit reminded me I never found them funny.
Still goes. For archeologists.
