Ted: “This…one side of the Factory double album should be out shortly anyway. It should have been out last April actually.
Charlie: “Why was there such a delay?”
Pete Creese: “I never thought there was any delay – that’s how fast they move. Releasing it now is like On Time.”
Ted: “I agree with you entirely and I’d like to retract everything I’ve said so far – I”d like to say what a very together company Factory are, and I’m really impressed about the inevitability of their progress.”
Charlie: “You don’t think they rushed out that Joy division album because Ian Curtis died, do you?”
Ted: “Oh, never!”
Pete: “That was planned five years ago.”
Ted: “The snuff clause in the contract – I do think it is rather indecent – that. I just hope it’s not contagious.”
Jake Milton: “He is here now! His molecules have been re-adjusted slightly, that’s all, he’s here, in the air, inside us now.”
Ted: “I’m surprised you’ve been taken in by this video experiment.”
Charlie: “What video experiment?”
Ted: “The demise caper…the snuff movie…he probably never existed, he was probably a laser. Maybe he was a martyr! He sort of suffered from an automatic obedience syndrome, and he died trying to obey two people simultaneously. (Laughs). Charlie’s really enjoying this, it’s so bad, Charlie’s not sure how to resolve it.”
Charlie: “You seem to be fairly effective in dealing with hecklers.”
Ted: “I’ve got children. I’ve got a cat that answers back a lot but apart from that I used to do things like putting puppet stages on rock and roll shows and get mightily barracked and – I tried to turn it to my advantage in order to stay on the stage for the allotted fifteen minutes. Thank you, Charlie. Allen Ginsberg used to crawl around the stage naked screaming “Fuck me like a dog, master”, in front of thousands of people. If you’re trying to set me up, you cunt, you’ve got another thing coming. (Laughs) Thank you, Charlie.
