FZ: What's your name?
Mr Tickman: I'm Martin Tickman
FZ: And what is your
position here?
Mr Tickman: Front office manager
FZ: The name of this stablishment is . . .
?
Mr Tickman: This is the Edgewater Inn
FZ: In Seattle, Washington. Can you tell me, uh, how
some rock'n'roll groups have taken advantage of this unique situation?
Mr Tickman: They've taken
advantage in different ways, and we do encourage, uh, and advertise that you can fish from your room
and we are glad to have our guests fish from 'em
FZ: Do you supply them with fishing
equipment?
Mr Tickman: No, but we have a shop in the hotel that does rent the equipment as well
as bait
FZ: What sort of bait do they usually use?
Mr Tickman: Uh, it's a preserved minnow
of some variety, I don't know exactly what the fish is
FZ: Well, what do they do after they fish
from the window?
Mr Tickman: Well, rock'n'roll bands and other guests as well often catch shark
and squid and octopus and usually we, it lands up either in the bath tub or dribbled on the floor on
the way to the bath tub
FZ: Mm-mmh . . .
Mr Tickman: But it's not reserved to, uh, to any
rock'n'roll bands, I mean, other guests do it too
FZ: Mm-mmh, but how frequently do you find
squids and sharks and octopuses in the bath tubs of the rooms here at the hotel?
Mr Tickman:
After almost any good weekend of pretty heavy occupancy, say like over half the house filled
FZ:
If you have over the . . .
Mr Tickman: Way, way . . .
FZ: . . . over half house filled you'd
find one, say?
Mr Tickman: Yeah, say, one or something like that
FZ: So how often would you
say that is each week? Twice a week you'd find a . . . ? |
