LL: Oh, the bunny man! It has to be the bunny man.

LL: It was at Bowery East— or Beast.
DS: There was this guy in fishnets and a bunny tail and a thong. He did this worm dance and was rolling on the floor in broken glass and writhing and bleeding!
LL: And then he jumped in our laps. He was like pulling shards of glass out of his skin! I wanted to help him, so I went to the bar and asked if they had a first-aid kit, but they were like, “All we have is water and napkins.”

DB: [Approaches the two] They have the clap.
