Had lunch yesterday with Andrew Hickey, as smart, sweet, & fascinating a human that exists. (Content warning: Our lunch contained gluten, dairy, and graphic depictions of 2 chubby guys eating hamburgers & talking about Fleetwood Mac. If this may upset you, please read the transcript first.)"
He is the standard.
Peter Green style Fleetwood Mac? Or with the ladies?
History of Rock n Roll in 500 songs Andrew Hickey???!!! That guy IS a genius. I have learned so much from his podcast music and history.
PS - love the trigger warning
Will talking and eating require subtitles or dubbing?
I could not love the content warning more ❤️🍔🍟
Oh Patton...you are still such a hoot 😂😅🤣
This is an excellent photo 😄
Which version of Mac did you discuss. I hope it was the Peter Green version.
👍
😂😂 my fibromyalgia is jealous.
❤️
Peter Green’s Fleetwood or post Peter? I cannot wait for Andrew to get to Fleetwood and have always wanted to write up a piece comparing Mike Bloomfield to Peter. Both amazing guitar players who loved the blues whose demons kept them down constantly.
thats great but did he make 2 Alivë?
this sounds like an overdose of my kinda nerdy
What, no fries?
Love me some Fleetwood Mac.
nothing like a good hamburger
This sounds like an ideal afternoon, in all aspects. <3
All your life you've never seen Patton taken out to eat Would you stay if he promised you burgers...
My favorite podcaster
That’s David Cross doing a bit
Jaunty? Is that the word I'm looking for? You look jaunty!
I love that you love Fleetwood Mac!
I love chubby guys talking about Fleetwood Mac.
You two are adorable
Monkees cap!
This is highly offensive to those of us that can't have gluten. (Just kidding, that was a hilarious warning)
Inquiring minds want to know if cheese was placed on said hamburgers. If so, please state its name and gooiness factor.
Next time you find yourself in southern Va come through we can get a club sandwich at the gas station. Maybe talk about movies.
Two of my favorite people. You suggested reading the transcript first, but as we often say, "There are no first anythings."
You know what's fun to say with a mouth full of burger? "Tusk!"
You had me at hamburger.
Do you guys also think Tusk is an underrated gem?
“…in 500 Songs” is a fantastic podcast and Hickey’s devotion to his subject and huge heart shine through in all of his work.
Joy! ❤️
What an Honor!
I hope it was early Mac!
I thought it was David Cross for a moment there.
Not enough rage in the eyes.
Maybe he got his chicken pot chicken pot chicken pot piiiiiiiiiiiieee
omg I sing that to myself all. the. time.
Hahaha. Same here. It’s weirdly always the 1st thing that pops into my head when I think of him.
Please tell me Rod Stewart tried to join in.
Where did this extra long gray hair come from? Andrew!!!
My kind of meal. Glad you both enjoyed your day together. 👍👍
It is very wholesome to see Andrew looking so happy
I love this!
“Check the transcript…” I didn’t know other people were as dorky as me and listened to this podcast, just fantastic stuff.
You are not alone
I can almost sense the BOOGIE WOOGIE emanating from the two of you. Brimming with both boogie and woogie. A lunch for the ages, no doubt.
Gimme dat beard.
As the person who (very very carefully) trims The Beard: no
Dang, how cool!
Have you ever tried veganism?
pfft you had me at talking about Fleetwood Mac. Go on. XD
U look like elton john. Much love haha
go your own way
Never mind that, where can I get that Love T-shirt?
Got it at a gig by the current touring version (Johnny Echols with Baby Lemonade).
OMG
Thank you for that info, I've just signed up to be notified of future dates. I had no idea
You won't be disappointed. Saw them three times last year (and seven or eight overall since they started touring again in 2016). Great every time.
Lunch in St. Paul Patton?
Thought that was David Cross letting himself go for a sec 😅
That's David Cross. He grew the Lettermen beard again?
It’s so great to see that despite all that sexy Hollywood glamour, you’re still a down to earth guy!
Patton, surely you spoke up for the Bob Welch and Danny Kirwan era.
Love you're glasses 🤓 I feel we'll get along
Oh Patton you were around the corner from my office, you should have popped in for a cup of crap vending machine tea
Hold up, which Fleetwood Mac album?
This is an all-time great nerd meetup, big fan of you both!
500 songs... I am a listener.
Legends. Great content warning.
Love this. Not at all how I pictured Andrew Hickey and I think I love him a little more now.
As long as its Fleetwood Mack, during the Peter Green days
Frodo and Gimli leave the Shire for second breakfast in the Big City.
🤌🏼
"While there is some confusion over who ordered what, I think I've been able to piece together the lunch order as best I can."
Whoa. It's so weird to see two artists, both of whom I love separately, in a photo together hanging out or whatever. Like this one. It makes me so happy.
It's also strange to see Nick Cave looking like kind of an average-sized guy on the street. I think of him as this looming, 6-foot-7 type of guy. Wikipedia says he's 6-2.
In The Birthday Party, he would wear Cuban heeled boots and of course the big hair. That could have caused confusion. Anyway I'm quite small so 6'2" is towering to me.
I imagine short’nin bread was on the menu?
“Ooohhhh, you make gluten fun”
I’m guessing the Danny Kirwan years were much discussed.
