ROUND 3

THREE: THE MAGIC NUMBER

Janet Weiss arrives.

L2T (shot of Jägermeister): Third round, three in the band — this is the moment of threesomes. So, uh, anybody ever have one?

JW (shot of Jägermeister): All the time [laughs].

CB (Pabst): If you only knew! I'm starting a website called fantasythreesome.com — I already own the domain.... Here's the idea: People vote on who the hottest threesome would be, and they're able to insert themselves. It's a moneymaker!

JW: Let's give an example: Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon.

L2T: Okay, I'd take Susan Sarandon but replace Tim Robbins with Catherine Deneuve and make it a Hunger kind of thing.

CT (soda): Yes! Mine would be The Hunger too: Susan Sarandon, Catherine Deneuve, and add in David Bowie for good measure.

CB: That's not a threesome, that's an orgy. Orgy.com!

JW: You know, I think orgy.com already exists.

ROUND 4

HEY, STEVE GUTTENBERG

L2T (Jäger): Both your manager and your publicist retired. You've been at this 10 years: When is it time for the Cocoon pool?

CB: (Pabst and Jäger) We just look at bands like Wilco, Modest Mouse. Those bands have been around a long time, and you just kind of hope for something like that. But without the band I'd probably be in a straitjacket.

JW (Jäger): It's crucial we make music we feel inspired by. We haven't just rehashed the last record. We strive for uniqueness. We didn't want to make a passive record. This is an aggressive, heavy, dark record. A lot of that guitar heaviness came from playing live.

CB: I'm feeling a little buzzed.

JW: I've forgotten the question. Did you ask a question?
