Midnight Pals: Tunes for Writing (Patreon)

Stephen King: alright, time to get to work King: gotta get some writing done King: and that means King: i gotta put on King: SOME TUNES [King rolls a fedora down his arm & pops it on his head in one fluid motion] King: [flailing wildly] A LITTLE BIT OF RITA'S ALL I NEED

Tabitha King: [busting into room] NO Tabitha King: [smashing record player] NO Tabitha King: IF I HEAR THAT DAMN MAMBO ONE MORE TIME Stephen King: i know, i know, you'll divorce me Tabitha King: NO STEPHEN Tabitha King: THE TIME FOR HALF MEASURES HAS PASSED Tabitha King: I WILL END YOU

Tabitha King: I WILL Tabitha King: joe, owen, cover your ears, boys Tabitha King: I WILL MAKE A WIDOW OF YOUR WIFE AND ORPHANS OF YOUR CHILDREN Stephen King: but Stephen King: but Stephen King: but YOU'RE my wife, tabitha! Tabitha King: that's right

Stephen King: so anyway tabitha said i couldn't play mambo no 5 anymore Mary Shelley: damn this tabitha sounds pretty cool King: she said she was gonna end things if i kept listening to it Shelley: i like this bad bitch more and more Shelley: me and tabitha should hang out more

Barker: damn if that's the reaction mambo number 5 got, i'd hate to hear mambos 1 through 4 Poe: i don't think those mambos actually exist Poe: its kind of a leonard part 6 situation

Stephen King: so i need some new music to listen to Craig DiLouie: hey how about black sabbath? King: naw i don't really like black sabbath DiLouie: King: i just don't like their sound DiLouie: what DiLouie: what do you mean DiLouie: they sound just like music King: they don't sound just like music

DiLouie: you don't like black sabbath?!?! DiLouie: but surely you like Ozzy Osbourne?? King: Ozzy Osbourne IS black sabbath DiLouie: Barker: he's got you there

Todd Keisling: steve have you ever considered prog rock King: you mean like blue oyster cult? Keisling: Keisling: pffft yeah if you're a baby Keisling: if you're a little bitty baby with a bottle and a diaper going goo goo ga ga i want baby food wah wah wah King: so King: not like blue oyster cult?

Keisling: i'm talking REAL prog Poe: todd don't talk like that in front of dean Poe: you're being a bad influence Koontz: i listened to jethro tull once Poe: see??? Keisling: kids can listen to jethro tull Keisling: it's totally safe and nonaddictive

Ronald Malfi: have you considered the alterntive indie acoustic space folk pan flute music of veer? King: i dunno, whats it sound like? Malfi: imagine floating through the infinite realms of the cosmos, all time condensing into one solid cube, all matter diffusing into obsolescence

Malfi: imagine that the essence of your being has been haunting this existential plane since the dawn of being, pondering the infinite nature of time and the deafening silence of hope and despair fused into a single omni-emotion Malfi: its all a little hard to describe in language

May Leitz: have you considered the screamatological sounds of black death shit testicular torsion metal? King: is it incoherent screaming Leitz: yes

Mary Shelley: i want to hear this Leitz: ok it's [incoherent screaming, rising in volume and pitch until reality implodes and the universe ceases to exist] Shelley: hell yeah Shelley: this is pleasant to me King: [ears bleeding] what

King: thanks for the suggestions, everyone King: but honestly i think there's only one choice for me King: and that choice is King: mambo no. 5 Poe: steve i thought you said tabitha King: [rolls fedora down arm, pops it onto head] its worth the risk
