"During the 1997 Lollapalooza tour Perry Farrell was always riding around on golf carts surrounded by beautiful exotic dancers. I was unwittingly dressing like a Nation of Islam member in bow tie and jacket and there were death threats on Snoop Dogg so the Nation were there protecting him, which made me feel funny, like they might think I was fucking with them by dressing like them. An odd coincidence. Anyway, one day I saw Perry drive by with a dancer dressed as a bird, making a call on her cell phone and an EELS B-side was born."
