>Parker and Stone became acquainted with Crowe at an award show around the time that the duo got awards for Bigger, Longer & Uncut. They described Crowe as "a really cool guy" accompanied by easy-going "Aussie" friends. One day, the two were invited to a studio by Crowe, who was finishing his album and asked the duo to listen to it and provide feedback. Flattered, they accepted the invitation. However, when they arrived, about eight of Crowe's acquaintances were also there. Crowe then proceeded to play a CD of the album, which seemed completely mixed and finished already. No one in the room seemed willing to comment on the songs, and it soon became apparent to Parker and Stone that Crowe simply wanted everyone to sit there and listen to the album. Parker said that while Crowe was "a very talented actor," he was a poor musician, describing his record as "Bon Jovi meets Hepatitis B." At one point, a song came along which featured handclapping. Parker, trying to think of something constructive to say, suggested that Crowe mix out the handclaps. "And literally, the place just got quiet," Parker said, with all attendees supposedly in shock that Parker would dare to critique Crowe. According to Parker, Crowe then nonchalantly took a drag of his cigarette and said, "Well, maybe I'll mix them off the version I give to you."
