I am the proud owner of Mark Arm's old futon

Posted by Ernest Jasmin @ 04:49:31 pm

Bought it from a friend who bought it at some rock charity auction long before she moved to the Dubai. And as I started to put the sucker together, I was tempted to call Mark and ask him what all these mysterious splotches are all about. Ewwwww! No, really. Touch me, I'm sick. Note to self: Buy new futon cover this weekend.

That's gross, Mark! Sell the frame, not your funky old mattress.

But maybe, E's lady friend is the one who stained it???

As funny as it is to blame Mark, I suppose that is a possibility. And you can see the possible guilty party on my Iggy Pop post. (Hey, Mark's mentioned in that, too. Weird. He's gettin' a lot of run on this blog this week.)

I wonder if a grunge godfather's sweat stains would make it more valuable on e-bay. And where's that certificate of authenticity when you need it?

go CSI on that thing!

I was thinking the exact same thing, nitsuj. I need to call Horatio Cane and get some DNA evidence, yo!

Gross, really gross. Hopefully just beer and drink stains from many nights of partying. Ugh. Does it smell to boot?

Does not smell, thankfully. The stains look ancient and seem to be beyond biohazard stage. But I'm actually using the mattress from my old futon just to be safe. And after only a couple of trips to area futon stores and Home Depot, I found all the missing parts I needed and put that sucker together.
