He may be, he said, one of the last of the truly angry men. Im putting a lot of this total hostility and angst into a book for Random House that will cover my life so far and deal with my antithesis toward Madison Avenues advertising over the years, he said. Satirists are basically angry people, but being angry is easy. The hard part comes in trying, somehow, to be entertaining and funny. When I did Green Christmas, I started out with absolute rage at Madison Avenue creeping worse and worse every year into the celebration of Christmas. I was so angry I had to write it four times before it finally came out funny. well-sprin- T-2- 8 ing to them that older people cant fathom and it weans them away from reading. FREBERGS PARALLEL effort, on behalf of Prince spaghetti, is designed to wean people away from other brands and, as usual, he is lampooning another public idol to get the job done. It occurred to me when this rock star, Prince, came along: Hey, thats interesting; he has the same name as my spaghetti company, Freberg said. So I came out with a long shot of this rock concert, just starting. The lights are coming up and smoke is coming on the stage and I say (dropping his voice to a pretentious basso profundo), Ladies and gentlemen, in concert: Prince! and the word Prince comes slamming into the screen. I cut to an audience of about 100,000 kids just going crazy and I cut back to the stage and theres nothing there but a box of Prince spaghetti, and a kids voice says, Oh, that Prince. FREBERG CHUCKLED, OBVIOUSLY pleased with his work. World class pasta, he boomed. An sauce from Prince the original. I can't tell you bow the guy will react, be said of the technicolor rocker. I dont necessarily want to run into his bodyguards right now. I keep hoping Ill raise as much furor over this as I did when I claimed that the Salada tea company was being picketed in Wolburn, Mass., (the firms headquarters) by the American Federation of Gypsies back in the 60s. In that campaign, Freberg advised his client to print fortunes on their tea bag tags, then put out the word that the gypsies were rioting because Salada was livelihood. He then taking away their tea n took strike ads in a major newspapers saying, Who threw the gypsies out of work? The New York Times sent a woman all the way to Wolburn to cover the story, Freberg said. She went there with a photographer and she was mad as hell when she found out it was a joke. I keep hoping that the Prince thing is going to mushroom into that sort of thing. Were waiting now to bear from (rock star) Prince's attorneys.
