Ass Clowns manager Jerry Gold issued a statement early this morning apologizing for the fake Time magazine cover. “This is all a big mistake,” said Gold. “We were just having a bit of fun and people took it seriously. That’s not our fault.”

As it turns out, Gold has actually been promoting the cover for years. In 2011, he said to a reporter for High Times, “Hey, my band is on the cover of f*cking Time magazine. Can you believe it? Now they’re totally legit. Think about it. This is a real Time magazine cover. Lars is really on the cover of Time. How amazing is that?”

When asked about what he said in that High Times interview, Gold coolly declared, “Hey, I never meant that seriously. I’ve always said that it’s a fake Time magazine cover. It’s not my fault if the media is going to go ahead and take something I say in jest as serious.”

Gold grew defensive when asked if he was being serious now or was he still kidding. “That’s a trick question, and I’m not going to answer it. Good day, sir.”

Fake Time Magazine Cover Not a Shock To Fans, Clubs

Several rock clubs that had framed the fake Time magazine cover started taking them down as soon as the story broke. “I put up that cover myself six years,” said Cisco Rocco, the owner of Consumption Auditorium in Kings Nose, NJ. “Now, I find out that it’s all fake. Am I disappointed? No, not really. These are the Ass Clowns we’re talking about. They’re pigs. This is pretty much par for the course with them.”
