Fake Italian started and became sort of the lingua franca of Silkworm when
Silkworm did a tour of Italy and they were traveling with Agostino Talotta.
Agostino is a Sicilian.
His English is pretty good but when he speaks English
his English is very measured and very slow and so what he says takes a long
time to reach from his mouth into your ears but you know it's come a very long
journey from the heart to the head and then out the mouth through the air into
the ears then into your your own heart is a long journey and so if it takes
some time it takes some time and Agostino he says things when he says
things he doesn't just say the thing he says maybe something else about life
that brings you to the point where you hear the thing and to speak the fake
Italian she's so nice because she takes the pain from a
criticism you know to say to someone in English in a plain English you say I
don't like the way you're playing the bass you're playing the bass way too
aggressively is maybe kind of an insult to say in fake Italian this music we're
making she is like a beautiful dolphin she moves a smooth but quickly through
the water you know but the way you're playing the bass now accidentally I
think you have made this bass into some kind of a rhinoceros and [Eb] rhinoceros
cannot play with the dolphin because of rhinoceros she will drown so I the fake
Italian she make a she make a criticism a sound like a poetry and she make of
the mundane sound special today she is a day it's like a beautiful flower she
opens I have seen many flowers I have not seen this one particular flower she
opens slowly and I see finally what this flower looks like okay she is very much
like all these other flowers but is a one-of-a-kind never before this flower
has opened to see the day I fake Italian I it's it's annoying when people around
you are speaking fake Italian if you're not into it but it's incredibly
infectious and so everyone in silkworm circle gradually started communicating
almost exclusively in fake Italian you know like hey what are we gonna do for
lunch today maybe we're gonna eat some salamis do you think maybe we're gonna
have some salamis you know it became almost impossible to have a normal
English conversation because fake Italian is just so much easier on you
you know it allows you to say things in a way that doesn't offend anybody if you
want to say something that's critical it makes mundane things more
entertaining to talk about and it allows you to it you know it it it plays
