Shocking Revelations

MINISTRY Frontman Once Scared METALLICA Out Of A Dressing Room By Sticking Vegetables Up His Ass

I've had Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen's new book sitting on my shelf for a few weeks now, but I think I've finally been convinced into reading it after seeing this latest interview bit. Previously, Jourgensen has had very negative things to say about Slayer's Kerry King and claimed to have embarrassed Fred Durst, but this story about Metallica takes the cake… 

Al was being interviewed for the new issue of Record Collector, and a topic from his book about scaring Metallica out of their shared dressing room came up, and this is an image I will never get out of my head:

Record Collector: There's a cool story about you forcing Metallica to vacate your dressing room by sticking all the vegetables on the rider up your arse and then running backwards at them.

Al Jourgensen: That actually has a name: the Flying Dutchman. I attacked them with vegetables sticking out of my ass. Their guitarist, Kirk Hammett, is good. The rest of them were really afraid of me. That singer never wants to see me again. Kirk was the only one who got the humor in Ministry, so I worked with him for a while.

While I certainly see "the humor" in the situation, I would've made just like James and headed for the hills when Uncle Al came barging through the door. Here's another gem from the interview:

Record Collector: It was courageous of you to write about your one gay experience, when you gave a buddy a blowjob.

Al Jourgensen: Wait, I gave a what?

Record Collector: You gave a blowjob to one of the guys in your early band, special affect. It's on page 48.

Al Jourgensen: Oh yeah, I've sucked dick before, Jesus Christ. If you haven't, you're really missing out. Just give a guy a blowjob and he's happy.

Record Collector: I liked the way you wrote "Is this still controversial in this day and age?"

Al Jourgensen: Well, people are still freaked out about this. Seriously, I mean, you're asking me about it. OK, yeah, I gave blowjobs. So what? I was actually pretty good.

So if you're a dude and you're ever in Texas and see Al Jourgensen walking around, ask him for one of his world-famous blowjobs.

You can pick up Al's autobiography, Ministry: The Lost Gospels According to Al Jourgensen here.

Ministry puts out (I think) their final album, From Beer To Eternity on September 6th. You can hear the single "Permawar" here. The band also just released a studio update from the making of the album:
