In this episode, Simone shares details on one of her biggest fan-girl adventures to date as she headed down to Santiago, Chile to see Faith No More, a band very important in her formative years.

Simone by the pool in Santiago, sipping a caipirinha, or however the fuck you say it.
(l-r) Roddy Bottum, Bill Gould, Mike Patton and Trey Spruance performing on stage together for the first time. Last together to record ‘King For A Day’ in 1994.
‘Everything’s Ruined’, one of Faith No More’s greatest song with one of the world’s most brilliantly crappy videos.
Faith No More end the set with ‘Just A Man’ complete with chorus. (Chorus kicks in at 3:47) Doesn’t quiet capture the majesty of being there unfortunately, but you get an inkling of an idea.

Simone took this of Beth Gibbons. She had a good seat.
Pedro The Lion is one of the two cover bands Stephy ever loved. Here is Bazan, Dongtini listener and force behind Pedro the Lion, playing “Once They Really Get To Know You They Will Run”:
Stephy was at this Death Cab For Cutie show (1/23/99) that Pedro the Lion opened for:
Stephy’s least favorite opening act ever
Official song of Dongtini, if they would just change “head” to “dong”:

No joke, that last soundwave, the one that looks like a dong, IS Simone saying “dong”!
