Rock and Roll's Most Infamous Tour Manager

[@langstongrandma]

Thank you, Phil, for what you did for Gram.

[@jessewjames-ym1rc]

Martha Langston 💙

[@fastinbulvis2223]

He can yuckity yuck about it all he wants, and of course he has. But he's still a 5 Star Creep no matter how you slice it. #RIPGP

[@jjfallnov]

Really wanted to hear the Zappa and Cocker stories :/

[@PowerHog]

"I hope I haven't offended him. Those murderers are so touchy." Lol

[@scottwolff6946]

If you liked this doc then I recommend the film "Grand Theft Parsons", it's all about the coffin/corpse stealing incident. Stars Johnny Knoxville as Kaufman. It's legit.

[@Josh-oj1pd]

Thank you Scott! Just watched it. 👍

[@bombingcontent]

'those murderers are so touchy' hahaha legend

[@lobomatt]

why is everyone hating on the host? i think he's great.

[@Mr1FineDay]

At 7:17, you have some filler footage that is not Nashville. We don't have electric trolleys here.

[@jameshighers6083]

Mr1FineDay that's what I was thinking...

[@jond2458]

I was thinking the same thing, I live in the Boro 30 minutes outside of Nashville but I work around Nashville every day and have never seen a trolley here....

[@GotLakai686]

Brilliant! Awesome documentary on an awesome topic!

[@JackVGallivan]

My dad grow up in Nash... I picture his teenhood was something like this

[@kharna2167]

When i was kid this is the type of things that i want to experience like 70's type party

[@Axelrckr]

Knock, knock

[@anthonyfoutch3152]

You could do a day on Phil. He was also in lots of movies and TV shows including Spartacus.

[@michaelclark9762]

Phil Kaufman did have bit parts in a few films, including Spartacus, before he went to prison for trafficking MJ. But it should also be made clear that Phil Kaufman (tour manager) and Philip Kaufman (movie producer) are two different people.

[@amanduhhexohh]

because of this story i went straight to amazon and ordered his book! cant wait to dig in! thanks vice! :)

[@johnmc99sf]

"I wanna know Sweet Connie" lol

[@_StandardIssue]

this is sick, keep at er vice!

[@RoninAgain]

A true grit hero in our times

[@timrizzo3941]

Wow, I wanted to find out more about Phil, but the interviewer being my favorite frontman of all time was an unexpected bonus! Then leaving Phil and showing up to a basement show at Danzig's place in a sidecar? Definitely buried the lead on this one.

[@linda.cafaro4284]

I am not a fan of either one of them, they are partly responsible for what happened to Gram

[@Marsriegelvollzug]

Well, Amy Ashworth was the music supervisor for this Video. "I like music" "I like films" "I can help you put the two together" Is what she writes on her Website, and her email adress is in the line right below. So write her a friggin email, and ask her what song it is. She is the only one that can help you i think, and she must know!

[@h.j.w2783]

sweet, sweet Connie

[@xen423]

was in the wrong part of town when i was there, awesome vid!

[@lemonhead162]

His book was so entertaining & funny! I would've loved being friends with this dude!

[@tontonremi]

this is zee kind of people i met when in san francisco living n annie leibovitz studio while she had her first job with rolingstone magazine zeitgeistely

[@Glaurung000]

Where's Glenn when everyone is thrashing his house? :P

[@caseymurphy6561]

The negativity about Vice and its hosts lately needs to stop! If you all haven't noticed they are putting out more material than ever, as a result, they are hiring more hosts for their segments. These people are going to be crazy, weird, outlandish, hip, and maybe a little nerdy, just like their videos!!! They are by far the best channel on KZbin and the best source of current accessible underground media. If you don't like it go like watch the news with normal people:) Keep it up Vice!

[@aholocaustoflove]

i wouldn't say he's terrible but yes more of Phil Kaufman.

[@yaledelay]

He is the singer of a great band called Les Savy Fav.

[@wilsonmandudebro]

This guy is so high.. on himself lol

[@bhartman7893]

I like this host and I don't care if he's interviewing hipsters

[@StickYaSelf85]

that's why I got a mailbox python now

[@TheBlankMan-hq4le]

thats awesome he met mick

[@grotynski_dop]

The disclaimer is awesome.

[@L_E_L_0_U_P]

Was really hoping to see Glenn Danzig

[@TheSupFactor]

You can see the bassist from American Sharks at the party at the end

[@Deejaynext]

it's simply the nature of the medium, which is still in it's infancy. suddenly there's instant feedback from anyone, anywhere in the world. along with that there's also "false feedback" from countless forms of trolling to confuse the issue. average it out. the truth is somewhere inbetween.

[@CameronWasmund]

This guy is great.

[@shirankao69]

4: I don't ever want to receive mail in Glenn Danzig's (?) house.

[@thefertlson]

Tim Harrington is the coolest guy ever. Long live Les Savy Fav

[@ben70542]

I wonder where he found those trousers

[@DudeMyHairIsOnFire]

awww yeah, waking up to something interesting to watch

[@WanderCampesino]

Its okay to stop watching at 7:32... its a commercial after that until 10:00...erh just stop at 7:32

[@jesuswatchesyouwank]

This was entertaining, but I had to wait for the vid to buffer every 2 minutes and I have a fast internet connection. It's a numbers game, they can't all be winners.

[@SodapopMeow]

This shoulda been longer :/

[@maddudus]

Cielodrivedotcom has Kaufman's police interview from 1970.

[@B0WERS117]

WHAT THE FUCK ARE WITH THOSE PANTS !!!! hahaha

[@eviltvcompany]

people used to live, now we browse

[@smackenurjunk]

This guy seems like that awkward kid in high school

[@stabtime]

The title of this video is misleading. I thought we were going to get 12 and a half minutes of Mangler. Instead the video ends at 7:16, and is followed by some stupid unrelated bullshit.

[@Cignas6]

This channel is the shizni+!

[@trad08]

"by far the best channel on KZbin" ahahahhahahaha your fuckn blowing it

[@thorsteinselvik6211]

emmylou var i bergen med the nash ramblers i -95 og phil kaufman, hennes road-mangler de luxe, drakk øl med oss og fortalte war stories

[@caseymurphy6561]

I do have respect sir, and my youtube profile is not set up because I have never felt the need to post a comment before. Furthermore, your picture obviously is not of you, so I'm not sure why you would ask others to post a picture of themselves. This isn't facebook! And just so you know, I do share Vice with many many people and send videos to friends and family daily that I know they will enjoy. Take care Mr humbolt

[@MrKFNeverGiveUp]

Was that on Halloween when you tried to do that lol?

[@weflyhigher420]

best disclaimer ever. ...after south parks lol

[@chrisinspects007]

i want part 2,3,4,5 how ever many you have

[@kingdavey87]

Omfg those are the funniest pants ive ever seen.

[@wstone2010]

Mick Jagger is a fucking bad ass.

[@Coffee_and_SpentBrass]

rocking the Infidel cover...awesome.

[@Cynical2012]

the host fronts Les Savy Fav which is a very good band

[@benitodegeronimo8334]

I just subscribed two months ago and I've already noticed a slight change. French rappers? Fresh Off the Boat, in L.A.????

[@ACKOFFICAL]

so cool!

[@cocodrile100]

i thought this was going to be good...

[@jacksonbigdog2]

good job.

[@onalyd]

poor man's zach galifianakis

[@gare0089]

way cooler than 15 year olds on crotch rockets

[@Anti1989Creative]

I'm pretty sure Casey Murphy has a face. Casey Murphy probably used his/her face to laugh at you before dignifying you with a response, because that's the generous type of human Casey is. If getting a profile is the most important thing to you, then I'm sorry your parents are incestual cousins.

[@x05reyeo]

Question? is the presenter Tim Harrington from Les Savy Fav???

[@NoRestForTheWeary]

for a second i thought that was nick swardson

[@ManiacMac596]

Man, this dude is 75.

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

In his 80’s now.

[@jmbaugh81]

sweet connie! nice!

[@Pdub0000]

dude im totally whale watching tonight.

[@N64orGTFO]

i wanted to hear that zappa story wtf

[@r0llskyay0]

and thats terrible how they wasted half of the video looking at stuffed ducks and a stupid college party, i feel like vice always does long pieces about boring stuff and then the interesting stuff is always like 2 minutes

[@cobyporschifer221]

Glen Danzig's House ??? In Nashville 😏 Obviously not the Glen Danzig from The Misfits

[@2ndsonofbowie]

9:15 - PLEASE HELP ....What is the name of that instrument he is playing!???

[@rodchamp7510]

Trevor Sesma - I need to know too, thought maybe it was a track

[@danclow7861]

It's the Teenage Engineering OP-1

[@javiceres]

Teenage engineering’s OP-1

[@libertycaps666]

i tryed to paint a man black before... i was called a racist

[@UEGUNDISPUTED]

My last name is Kaufman! haha

[@SenorPumpkinEscobar]

Whats the name of the song Natural Child are playing at the party??

[@marianomejia6765]

SenorPumpkinEscobar what is it

[@DuchessandHammer]

Redhead at 12:00 would get it.

[@stephen88hox]

tried to burn grams body,but failed and got arrested

[@MrKFNeverGiveUp]

Cool. I bet the Rolling-Stones tried to paint him black. :-)

[@RandyTheWildHorse]

I though Phil "The Mangler" Kaufman was interesting and they should of interviewed just him. I was going to like this video but I decided not to rate it at all!

[@CancunMimosa]

everyone just rock the fuck on

[@bozokarl]

ugliest pants ever!

[@pokemonmaster19]

This dude is hilarious and I wish he was my dad. Why do Vice videos get so many douche-fucker haters on every video? This shit was all great.

[@Ayowrya]

i bet all the hosts who do the vice videos read the comments and get SOOOO SADDDDD :(

[@xValerianx]

This guy sounds like Seth Green.

[@great4snacks]

where was Danzig?

[@PeopleR2sensitive]

the only thing this host is mangling is the narration

[@GotLakai686]

ye, Shane Smith is awesome

[@Deejaynext]

02:02 - melbourne, australia! woot!

[@r0llskyay0]

thats what comments are for, if you dont like something in the video you can comment below. its not called the 'compliment' section, and just because vice is big and makes a lot of stuff doesn't excuse them making bad choices. This dude dresses like a total fruit to meet some badass roadie, if you can't see how that could have a negative effect on the interview then you must be blind.

[@RMAGEDN740]

about 35 too many toucan sams in this documentary!!

[@charlieujdjh3993]

12:06 right side of screen. Jonah Hill.

[@jasonlajoie]

-Gram- theft Parsons

[@Hadrorex]

Dude does the interview still in his fucking pajamas!

[@aaronhebert5808]

Worrrd.

[@ablemagawitch]

Phil Kaufman used to run one the best industry forums and websites that all the real roadies and many posers posting and making lists. The top Ten lists were one of our favorites. Sadly www.roadie.net isn't online as it used to be but you can how it was in the hey day web.archive.org/web/20041010010807/www.roadie.net:80/topten.htm

[@jerseyboy7711]

i'm not really into this music but i thought this was good

[@MrGilberTable]

who hired nick swardson at 3rd man 7:36

[@chenzhensifu]

MOAR KAUFMAN PLS
