Description

The Morning X interviews Ed Kowalczyk of the band Live live from New York, but the conversation immediately centers on the rock star's highly publicized friendship with Dennis Rodman. The singer reveals his own complex personality, comparing himself to a "Jacqueline High character" who reserves his intense side for the stage. Tune in to find out which of his actual bandmates Ed claims is even crazier than Rodman, why he refused to sing from a chopper above the Hamptons at Rodman's birthday party, and how he reacted when he heard a commentator suggest Andre Agassi was trying to look like the guy from Live.

This is from the Best of The Morning X vault.
