The Minneapolis Star-Tribune’s Paul Walsh reports Bloodshot recording artist Robbie Fulks made quite the lasting impression with an appearance on Saturday’s episode of the venerable “A Prairie Home Companion” :
Country songwriter Robbie Fulks sang “Where I Fell” about 50 minutes into the nationally broadcast show Saturday evening at the Fitzgerald Theater in St. Paul, and with it the blasphemy that ends with the syllable “damn.”
Before the late-morning rebroadcast Sunday to MPR’s listeners, an apology was aired and the word was bleeped out the second time around.
“Prairie Home” spokesman David O’Neill said the show issued a “language advisory” soon after the live broadcast Saturday to 670 local stations across the country about the word.
I’m guessing they won’t be having Meredith Graves on anytime soon….
