Who would you consider your enemy? On here? Who would enemy? Why go on tour with? That's my eighties battle vest I.

0:48 Mean, come on, Metallica, I mean that's you ain't better that? Yeah, I'd have to say Metallica, it's been through some wars. Yeah, man, that is it's a venom patch. Nice Suicidal Tendencies and Metallica Slayer. Okay, so we'll have the Big four of enemies. Yeah, dude, that's sick. Hopefully we're not enemies. We'll be friends with them. Yeah, Megan, holy shit. Nice And look at that. That's the original Exodus logo. Love it. Did you do all the all the artwork? I did?

1:28 Hell? Yeah, man, that's awesome. Dark Angel, that one's almost perfect. That's what my notebooks, all my notebooks in school look like that. Just band logos we used to have peachy folders. They were these orange folders that had like sports stuff on it, and you would just draw all the band logos everywhere on them in class while you were supposed to be doing work. Yeah, exactly. And Slayer at this at the point I started this, they didn't even have a patch yet. So I got these velvet letters and I was in l A and they were and people thought it was a gang banger and that was my gang name, Slayer. Not a not a bad gang banger name to have, I know.

2:10 Right, So there you go, we'll have the Big five of Enemy. It'll be Slayer, Metallica, Megadad An Enemy's headlines. All right, no way, no Way. Thirty opening band. Yeah, yeah, we'll open. So what do you guys do that you got sent to prison? Well, we we we heard a lot of talk on Facebook. We're like, we wonder what this group is and then I don't know, there's a lot of campsite stories that we heard about. I joke, I joke with the guys, I'm like, during our set, I'm gonna say something to reference that, because I feel like there's a lot of people that need to.

2:53 Go to Horny Jail. There's a lot of people out there just looking to have a good time. Where where's horn Jil. I want to know where that is. We're gonna find out. I think they're gonna reopen this place and uh put some of these people away. Well, they already have some of the old inmates in there, but you might not want to run into them. Yeah, I've heard it. I heard it's haunted. It is definitely haunted, Railing whiling revis of you know, a killer's confession and mushroom ed. He told me that he filmed the video in there in the torture room, and he came out and had scratched his eyes body that we're bleeding. Nobody was in the room.

3:37 I going in there. I ain't going in there. See, people think metal heads are so. Scary, and every metal head I know are like fuck that. I'm not going in there. Now. I heard that's where the messus is. I might, I might sign up. Oh she's about as tall as this. She's got some sharp teeth, but don't worry about it. Yeah, you guys, are you guys gonna go tour the prison? I think we're gonna tour the prison after we do these interviews so nice. Yeah, it's good. It is fucking cool. Like I keep telling people, like my daughter shows us, are you excited about this festival coming up? And I'm like, well, when you do it every weekend, is it exciting?

4:21 No? I love it. It's great. I don't know if exciting is the right word. First time I came here, I called her. I'm like, I'm calling you from the prison yard of Short Shank. Now I'm excited. Yeah, how cool is it to fucking half short Shank as the backdrop of your set? No, it's sick. Trevor actually just told us a couple of days ago that he watched Shawshank for the first time. That's wild. I know I'm a little behind, but it's all right. We got there. Don't feel bad. There's a media person here, okay. Yeah. They were gonna go on me on the tour and we asked them, do you know about shaw Shank the movie? No, never saw it, And I said to him, well, you better after the festival tonight go and watch it, because you can't go on the tour without watching the movie, Like you wouldn't even know what's going on.

5:13 You're right, right, You're right. You know. And and did you know too that there's inmates next door out in the yard, Like you guys are like Johnny Cash performing for the inmates. We uh so. Actually, a few people I had told them that we're playing at INC and I was like, yeah, it's a reformatory and they're like, oh, you're playing in the prison. I was like no, I mean like out in the yard. But they thought it was like a similar situation. I'm like, man, I wish that'd be that'd be pretty cool. How fucking cool would that? Yeah? What would be Eve the Core if you did it down in the basement where all the ghosts are and they're your audience. That actually sounds like some of our first few shows. No, I'm just kidding.

5:56 You could have like a ghost circle pit. Yeah, dude, do it start a spiral. Fuck the holograms. Let's do ghosts instead, Like, listen, don't do a Ry James Dio hologram. Just bring his ghosts. Get some kind of medium and bring his ghost to do the show. Please. Do we need some holy divers out here? I know, right, he is on point, right. I'm trying. I'm trying. So well, you guys, how are you going to top this. Oh yeah, I don't think. Yeah, I don't think there is topping this. I feel like we just have to keep doing as many Danny Wimmer shows as we can.

6:39 Fingers crossed, how many have you done already? We played Louder than Life last year, as I talked to you then, Yeah, and this is our this is our second Danny Wimmer and we're looking forward to hopefully more. Okay, so let's compare which do you like better? I don't know, man, they're both pretty cool. Like Louder was sprawling, it was huge, all right, I'll I'll let the rest of the guys answer. So, I mean, I kind. Of dig this one just because the whole backdrop, but the prison is, uh, it's different, it's unique. I like, I don't know, I'm kind of different, Like I like having fewer stages and then I don't know, everything just feels more close knit and everything, and I don't know, it's pretty cool.

7:23 So I like both. Yeah, I'm not to go with this one. The camaraderie here, everybody's just real tight in here, and everything's closer together, so it just brings everybody naturally together. This has been crazy. Nice and I feel like, I didn't realize this until so I came here last year just as a spectator. Guess what we're getting? How spit code red? Fucking every festival I do, it's code red. Three out of four days at Rockdale Rock Belt code red. So now real quick, tell them everything else you need people to know.

8:04 All right, we're enemy E N M Y. You can find us on all social media and streaming platforms. We've got a new album coming out. It's our third full length, stay Tuned. We've got a lot of cool stuff in store. You guys fucking rock. I'm so glad you're here at incarceration and thanks a lot for blowing my fucking interview by bringing the storms here.
