“We’re driving along and I see these shapes out of the corner of my eye. At that moment Pete asked if I had any ideas. I don’t know why he asked at that moment, but I told him there were these shapes back there. Everybody turns around and we walk out onto this slag. I look up after a minute and Pete’s pissed on it. I started taking pictures. The others couldn’t piss, so we filled old cans with water and dumped it on the thing. I took maybe 14 pictures. Today, I’d take about 400. It was nothing like today. No art directors. No stylists. No nothing. It was off to the record company in two days.”
