The routine was based at least partly on his experiences with the draft in the Sixties, and also on his friendship with Alice and Ray Brock. There actually was an Alice's Restaurant (actually the Back Room Rest) in Stockbridge, MA, and they actually did live in a church. Arlo Guthrie bought the church in 1991, and created the Guthrie Center. It's a nondenominational, interfaith worship space.
Arlo's father was Woody Guthrie, famous for such songs as "This Land Is Your Land" and "Talking Dustbowl Blues". Arlo came by the music honestly. He's a pretty good songwriter in his own right. He put out a greatest-hits album a number of years back that has not only the Masacree but another routine involving a motorcycle, a traffic cop, and a four-foot-long kosher dill pickle. (Don't ask.) Then there's the one about going through customs at LAX while dropping acid. It's a good album, check it out. [ Ignatz's advice column | Ask Ignatz A Question ]
