ICE ROD CHATROULETTE DORM ROOM freestyle rap show!!!



The stage is setup like a college dorm, complete with Bob Marley and
Pulp Fiction posters - a snowboard in the corner. ICE ROD (Michael
Gaughan), acting as just another bored kid in the dorms, surfs
Chatroulette making individual freestyles for other lonely,
thrill-seeking, sexually obsessive chatters around the world.
Gaughan wears an inconspicuous microphone, situates his laptop so only
a bed and "dorm" background are visible to chatters, then creates
detailed, hilarious, often insightful raps about them. The audience
watches the in-person performance, but they also see a projection of
the unknowing Chatroulette participants and the virtual dorm where ICE
ROD lives. Audience members are invited on stage to act as college
buddies and Resident Advisors.
Much of the fun comes from the chatters' reactions: some simply watch,
some laugh, some curse him out. Often the biggest excitement comes
when the laptop camera is turned and the chatters realize they're in
front of an audience. At one show, a budding rapper was overcome when
he realized he'd just rapped in front of a live audience. At another,
a closet-exhibitionist found that there is perhaps no better thrill
than ejaculating to the encouraging cheers of hundreds.
Gaughan, always the gifted lyricist, creates a show above and beyond
the prank with his ever-changing library of beats and his freestyle
skills honed over years in the Minneapolis underground.
