    John Lurie and Waits fish for red snapper in Jamaica. Tom periodically becomes grumpy. A game of cards on dry land makes Tom feel much better. Waits catches a fish and puts it in his pants.

    Beginning of the trip: "I'm invigorated. I could disappear out here and never be heard from again."
    End of the trip: "This is ridiculous. Why did I let you talk me into this."
    And that, my friends, is the perfect representation of camping I've ever heard.

    0:17 This young Japanese woman is Kazu Makino and, according to the end credits and the IMDb, she provided vocals to the soundtrack; she's likely seen also at 0:12 and her voice might be heard at 0:42. A couple of years later Kazu Makino founded noise rock band Blonde Redhead with Italian twin brothers Amedeo and Simone Pace. They still record and tour after more than thirty years.
    I once read a Facebook post by Kazu Makino saying that she met John Lurie in Japan. Judging from the tone of that post I had the feeling that they were in a relationship and he brought her to New York where she later met the Pace brothers. This TV series is produced by a Japanese broadcaster by the way.

    • @robertmorselli4358
      @robertmorselli4358 3 года назад +20

      the reason for that is because a Japanese broadcaster funded the entire series - John Lurie TRIED to get American funding dollars for the project, but no one would touch it, citing that it's too weird, bizarre, etc. Shows what American broadcasters know.

    Leon (acknowledging): "ohh".
    Leon thought they were still talking about another weirdly named fish (chickenfish, goatfish, cheesefish).
    8:03 lol

    John decided to throw in this little non-sequitur story that had nothing to do with fishing.
