By turns hysterical and heartbreaking, frantic
and thoughtful, The Slip-Knot is a spellbinding comic
monologue unlike any other. Journey with the incomparable TJ Dawe
as he mans a giant truck, becomes the unhelpful voice on the other
end of the phone line, and takes stock of euphemisms while he stocks
the shelves in a drugstore. In between are ruminations and wise
observations on long-distance relationships, the history of Santa
Claus, recreational Gravol, and why you should never mail meat,
no matter what the clerk at the 7-11 tells you.
"The Slip-Knot has extremely funny yet
deeply saddening tales of crappy jobs and troubled relationships
familiar to us all. But it also has the most entertaining hallucination
stories since Hunter Thompson and the most profound anti-consumerist
rantings since Kalle Lasn. Evern though you coouldn't ask for anything
better than this, it also has an incredibly uplifting and sweet
ending."
— Charleston City Paper
"If you could listen to a juggler, and
if that juggler were the most accomplished juggler in the world,
the experience would be something like listening to TJ Dawe in
The Slip-Knot"
— Orlando Sentinel
