Cousin Ed

[irondiva]

OK, so we all know that Cousin Ed is the DJ at V-Rock, and Lazlow is the "host, almost." Later (or earlier) on in Vice City, Lazlow is the main host. What happened to Ed? I remember him calling in, and Lazlow making fun of him, but I don't remember exactly what went on.

This is straight copy and paste from this wallthrough, here.

 

Jazz Torrent: This is Jezz Torrent from Love Fist. If you wanna take on

the chin, you'll remain listening to V Rock.

 

Lazlow: Vice City's home of rock and roll for 75 years. Let's go to the

V-line. Hello you're on V Rock.

 

Ed: Dude! You took my job alright! I got a major beef with you!

 

Lazlow: Who is this?

 

Ed: Ed! Maybe you remember me! Now I'm out driving a bus, standing on

unemployment lines getting yelled at by my wife because I don't make

enough money!

 

Lazlow: Look man! The station is taking another direction. It's heading

in like in a new direction, it happens to be a Lazlow direction.

 

Ed: No! It's not a new direction, it's a cheap direction! They're saving

money on you! You are cheap! Lazlow equals cheap!

 

Lazlow: Listen this is rock and roll man! It comes and it goes! It's

better to burn out than fade away!

 

Ed: So-you're calling me a burn out! Is that what you're saying?!

 

LAZLOW: Well I heard you applied for this job with a resume written on

rolling papers, come on!

 

Ed: Oh yea, and you sent yours in hand written calligraphy with a

bouquet of flowers... that's not rock and roll man! Rock and roll is a

life style! You got to live it, you got to know it! You don't know a

damn thing about music! Twisted Sister "I Wanna Rock" I came up with

those profound lyrics, I helped Dee! Autograph "Turn up the Radio"!

Their talking about me man! Turn up the radio, turn up Cousin Ed! What's

the mascot's name for Iron Maiden? Do you even know? Give me a clue!

 

Lazlow: Listen dude! First off, Cousin Ed is a really weak radio name!

What're you like a red neck?

 

Ed: Wha-What did you do? Let me ask you about high school! Did...Were you

in the high school band?

 

Lazlow: No!

 

Ed: You were in the band? Weren't you?

 

Lazlow: Yes!

 

Ed: Yea! While you were learning the Star Spangle Banner, I was in a

garage drummin to Def Leppard songs!

 

Lazlow: Ah listen... I know who the mascot for Iron Maiden is...

 

Ed: Who!?

 

Lazlow: It's a puppy!

 

Ed: No! His name is Eddy! Cousin Eddy, where do you think it came from?

Cousin Ed, Eddy, Iron Maiden! Put two and two together my friend!

 

Lazlow: (scoff) Listen that was old rock! This is new rock man! You got

to step aside!

 

Ed: New rock! I don't even use the playlist! You probably have a

playlist; I rolled mine into a big fatty and smoked it!

 

Lazlow: Listen! I'm a rock station DJ ok! Let's get some rock severed

up! This is V Rock!

 

Male VRock Radio Voice: V Rock!

[Donaldson]

Oh yeah that was pretty cool.eh

[Canoxa]

Although Lazlow is the best radio character ever, not knowing Eddy's name is low, really low.

[Sly_Madman]

Their VCS banter is priceless.

 

(During Balls to the Walls)

Ed: That was Balls to the Walls! Lazlow, get up and put your balls to the wall!

 

(During Breakin' the Chain)

Ed: Yeah, Breakin' the Chain! I keep Lazlow on a chain so he doesn't ruin my show.....

 

 

 

....or touch my ass!

[irondiva]

Now I remember!

 

Thanks alot. That was fantastic!

Hey, while we're talking radio DJ's, does anyone know who voiced the two guys on the fishing show on VCPR? I'm almost certain one of them is Dennis Leary, but the game manual doesnt list them.
