They exploded onto the 90s Britpop scene with fresh faces and clean teeth. Steven Spielberg wanted to turn them into the next Monkees. Instead, this UK phenomenon eschewed America and just did it their way. It's SUPERGRASS week!
Joining the show is a long-time musical hero of Alex and Jon: lead singer and guitarist of the legendary Boston-based band Piebald, Travis Shettel! The guys and Travis talk through the past and present of Piebald before breaking down the unique and winding career path of Supergrass. Gaz Coombes and co. bus in all their Oxford buds for their TV debut on The Word. Ray Cokes of MTV Europe has the band flush a smashed watch down a toilet in between peformances of the big 'I Should Coco' hits. And Jonathan Ross returns to the show to the dismay of all involved. Plus the debut of "Chunk, Drag, or Grass?"!
