1
00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:08.769
Hey, you're listening to The Adventure of Pumlin on W4CY.

2
00:00:08.810 --> 00:00:09.429
For you.

3
00:00:19.420 --> 00:00:21.399
This is the Pipe Man here on the Adventures of

4
00:00:21.420 --> 00:00:28.440
Pipe Man W4CY radio, and I'm here with... Spike. Nice.

5
00:00:28.460 --> 00:00:28.879
That's me.

6
00:00:29.140 --> 00:00:30.839
Here at Warped Tour.

7
00:00:31.019 --> 00:00:31.719
Yes, indeed.

8
00:00:31.859 --> 00:00:32.719
Montreal.

9
00:00:33.020 --> 00:00:34.200
Jean Drapeau.

10
00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:37.640
You said that really well, because I can't say it

11
00:00:37.659 --> 00:00:38.880
that well. No, it's up.

12
00:00:38.939 --> 00:00:39.200
It's up.

13
00:00:39.299 --> 00:00:39.759
Thank you.

14
00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:43.920
So, first, I just want to say, I absolutely love

15
00:00:43.969 --> 00:00:48.460
your freaking glasses. They are cool as hell. Oh, thank you.

16
00:00:49.189 --> 00:00:52.590
They're like a blue with black mixed in. It's hard

17
00:00:52.630 --> 00:00:56.039
to describe. People just have to see it. But, man.

18
00:00:56.780 --> 00:00:59.740
And the whole motif, like, I had blue hair for

19
00:00:59.780 --> 00:01:02.579
a lot of years up until recently. And I'm like that.

20
00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:05.980
I would match my sunglasses and all to my hair.

21
00:01:06.340 --> 00:01:10.030
My dog matches, too. If you see my dog, she matches.

22
00:01:10.170 --> 00:01:12.530
That's not by accident.

23
00:01:12.870 --> 00:01:13.189
Nice.

24
00:01:13.709 --> 00:01:14.450
What kind of dog?

25
00:01:15.030 --> 00:01:19.290
Chihuahua. She looks like a miniature German... Australian shepherd, that is.

26
00:01:19.409 --> 00:01:23.450
But she's actually 100% Chihuahua, supposedly.

27
00:01:24.269 --> 00:01:25.170
Nice. Is she here?

28
00:01:25.189 --> 00:01:26.909
No, no, no.

29
00:01:26.950 --> 00:01:29.870
We left her back in San Francisco for this trip.

30
00:01:30.969 --> 00:01:34.799
We've flown with her a couple times. But she's kind

31
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:35.299
of a homebody.

32
00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:37.739
She's like, I just want to stay home. You go

33
00:01:37.780 --> 00:01:38.719
do your thing, Dad.

34
00:01:38.859 --> 00:01:41.340
Yeah. She misses us, but..

35
00:01:42.579 --> 00:01:44.739
But then they're so excited when you come home. When

36
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:47.519
you're on tour... And you go home and you have

37
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:50.560
that come down period. It is nice to walk in

38
00:01:50.609 --> 00:01:53.010
the door and have your dog so excited to see you.

39
00:01:53.069 --> 00:01:58.709
Yes, it is. Dogs, cats, macaques.

40
00:01:58.790 --> 00:02:03.849
I don't think we're allowed to have those.

41
00:02:03.930 --> 00:02:07.349
I live in South Florida. Mother-in-laws. Well, that's a whole

42
00:02:07.450 --> 00:02:11.449
other thing. I had a friend that had a lemur

43
00:02:11.889 --> 00:02:13.009
as a pet in the house.

44
00:02:13.550 --> 00:02:14.490
Are you allowed to have that?

45
00:02:15.370 --> 00:02:18.330
Not really, but it's South Florida, so people do a

46
00:02:18.370 --> 00:02:19.069
lot of things like that.

47
00:02:19.090 --> 00:02:20.590
Yeah, you don't have to do anything in South Florida.

48
00:02:20.650 --> 00:02:23.770
Exactly, you know, and it did attack me one day.

49
00:02:23.830 --> 00:02:26.530
It was a trip. It did? Yeah, like I was

50
00:02:26.569 --> 00:02:29.849
there all the time, and it was always cool with me,

51
00:02:30.509 --> 00:02:34.689
but when they become an adult, wild, exotic animals like that,

52
00:02:34.990 --> 00:02:38.969
something happens, obviously, and just one day it just freaked

53
00:02:39.110 --> 00:02:41.460
out and it was bouncing off all the walls and

54
00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:44.080
And it just came in, like, took a chunk out

55
00:02:44.099 --> 00:02:46.360
of my elbow, and then it was stalking me. I

56
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:48.719
ran out of the house, and it was, like, going

57
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:52.389
side to side, and the sliding glass door was stalking me.

58
00:02:52.409 --> 00:02:55.409
And I'm like, I don't know, maybe I just invaded

59
00:02:55.469 --> 00:02:56.030
his space.

60
00:02:56.650 --> 00:02:58.370
It had you sussed, finally.

61
00:02:58.469 --> 00:03:04.340
I know, right? It was definitely... More exciting than any

62
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:07.919
mosh pit I've been in. Or scarier, let's put it

63
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:08.180
that way.

64
00:03:08.219 --> 00:03:10.680
Yeah, and they're serious little animals, right?

65
00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:14.460
I've been watching these Instagram videos with this guy. I

66
00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:17.400
think he's a Chinese guy that scares macaque monkeys with

67
00:03:17.460 --> 00:03:17.879
a song.

68
00:03:17.939 --> 00:03:19.400
It's pretty funny. Oh, man.

69
00:03:20.740 --> 00:03:23.340
I love when you go to Bali and the monkeys

70
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:26.340
steal your shit and then negotiate with you to get

71
00:03:26.379 --> 00:03:30.750
it back. So I was in Bali and they love

72
00:03:30.780 --> 00:03:33.509
to steal your sunglasses. And then they want you to

73
00:03:33.550 --> 00:03:36.090
give them food. But if they don't like the food

74
00:03:36.110 --> 00:03:39.030
you give them, they throw it away and you can't

75
00:03:39.090 --> 00:03:42.050
come get your sunglasses. Oh, that's great. But the minute

76
00:03:42.090 --> 00:03:44.210
you give them the food they want, they just hand

77
00:03:44.250 --> 00:03:45.210
them back to you.

78
00:03:45.229 --> 00:03:45.580
Yeah, man.

79
00:03:45.590 --> 00:03:46.349
So smart.

80
00:03:46.509 --> 00:03:49.000
They're smarter than we think, than we want to give

81
00:03:49.030 --> 00:03:49.840
them credit for.

82
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:54.259
No doubt. So how's it feel being here after all

83
00:03:54.300 --> 00:03:57.159
these years in Montreal at Warped Tour 2026?

84
00:03:57.139 --> 00:04:02.840
Um. It's difficult to describe.

85
00:04:02.849 --> 00:04:10.060
I love Montreal. It's one of my favorite North American cities.

86
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:12.620
To me, it's up there with New Orleans and San

87
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:18.389
Francisco and New York. Not because of size or relevance

88
00:04:18.449 --> 00:04:20.250
or anything like that, but just because.

89
00:04:19.970 --> 00:04:21.509
It doesn't look like anywhere.

90
00:04:21.529 --> 00:04:22.350
The vibe.

91
00:04:22.430 --> 00:04:25.910
The vibe, yeah. Exactly. I love it here. So I'd

92
00:04:25.949 --> 00:04:31.250
love any excuse to come back is... Very welcome.

93
00:04:32.089 --> 00:04:35.410
And this venue, this venue, like I walked in, I've

94
00:04:35.449 --> 00:04:37.970
never been here. I felt like I was just at

95
00:04:37.990 --> 00:04:40.769
a big skate park. Like it's so cool.

96
00:04:40.829 --> 00:04:42.680
Formula one races here too.

97
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:43.300
I think so.

98
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:47.300
Yeah. Villeneuve, the dad, dad, dad, like they got a

99
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:48.860
whole circuit named after him.

100
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:50.439
Right. Nice. Yeah.

101
00:04:51.300 --> 00:04:54.720
That's where we went today to the wrong address that

102
00:04:54.740 --> 00:04:55.399
we were given.

103
00:04:55.420 --> 00:04:57.170
So we're late today.

104
00:04:57.370 --> 00:04:59.189
So I think there, there's a lot of sort of,

105
00:04:59.689 --> 00:05:08.209
questionable information being given from, you know, official sources.

106
00:05:08.230 --> 00:05:10.430
But you made it. We did make it.

107
00:05:10.430 --> 00:05:14.290
Our drummer's not here yet. He's had many canceled flights

108
00:05:14.550 --> 00:05:21.360
and one was diverted to Dulles instead of... So it's been...

109
00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:23.660
It's been crazy.

110
00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:26.560
I know that feeling. Yesterday I did that all day.

111
00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:28.839
They, you know..

112
00:05:30.029 --> 00:05:38.129
And then with a bunch of big gun cases, you're.

113
00:05:35.220 --> 00:05:36.019
A square peg.

114
00:05:36.740 --> 00:05:38.639
You always were a square peg, but these days.

115
00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:42.779
We're moving into a different... We're really turning a corner

116
00:05:42.819 --> 00:05:43.680
in the world, I think.

117
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:47.300
I think so, which is why I think bands like

118
00:05:47.339 --> 00:05:50.990
you and Warped Tour and punk rock in general is

119
00:05:51.060 --> 00:05:52.439
needed more than ever.

120
00:05:52.579 --> 00:05:57.670
Yes, pleasure, enjoyment... Even carefree.

121
00:05:58.990 --> 00:06:02.290
Because we don't get political, and I certainly have political

122
00:06:02.850 --> 00:06:09.009
ideas and beliefs, but we're pretty serious about keeping it

123
00:06:09.129 --> 00:06:09.420
out of.

124
00:06:09.509 --> 00:06:12.000
Our oeuvre, so to speak.

125
00:06:12.500 --> 00:06:16.699
Just because we would like to be an outlet. Everybody

126
00:06:16.740 --> 00:06:21.959
knows what's wrong. Half of them are wrong about it. Right.

127
00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:23.980
But everybody knows that something's wrong.

128
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:29.310
And they don't need some middle class white dude screaming

129
00:06:29.350 --> 00:06:30.160
to them about it.

130
00:06:30.230 --> 00:06:31.329
You know what I'm saying?

131
00:06:31.350 --> 00:06:35.649
So we try to provide a different form of entertainment.

132
00:06:36.649 --> 00:06:39.029
This is our escape. Trolling.

133
00:06:39.410 --> 00:06:39.870
Well, sort of.

134
00:06:39.910 --> 00:06:43.459
It's weird, though, because, you know, like on the nights

135
00:06:43.500 --> 00:06:46.139
that we get the loudest boos, because we do try

136
00:06:46.180 --> 00:06:49.850
to provoke a crowd. to and past the point of

137
00:06:49.970 --> 00:06:53.209
vocal displays of like displeasure and disapproval.

138
00:06:53.790 --> 00:06:55.410
Um, and then we try to reel them back.

139
00:06:55.750 --> 00:06:57.990
And on the nights when the booze get the loudest,

140
00:06:58.350 --> 00:07:01.730
that's when we sell the most t-shirts. So we definitely

141
00:07:01.829 --> 00:07:06.120
understand our role. Um, we're not just like a friendly,

142
00:07:06.540 --> 00:07:10.319
fun cover band. We're, we're something maybe a little darker.

143
00:07:10.339 --> 00:07:13.560
Um, Troublesome? Troubling?

144
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:15.439
Still fun, though. Still fun.

145
00:07:15.750 --> 00:07:19.790
Because for the same reason I hope that comedians are fun.

146
00:07:20.149 --> 00:07:22.350
Because you look at one another, you're like, did he

147
00:07:22.370 --> 00:07:24.509
just mean what he just said? Or did she just mean?

148
00:07:24.850 --> 00:07:28.449
And those to me are the genius comedians. And so

149
00:07:28.490 --> 00:07:31.540
we've been on many festivals like this, obviously. And we've

150
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:35.220
been on tours. where we opened for the likes of

151
00:07:35.259 --> 00:07:42.050
the Violent Femmes or Flogging Molly. And very quickly, we

152
00:07:42.470 --> 00:07:46.769
began to understand our role, given that everybody else was

153
00:07:46.850 --> 00:07:47.800
very earnest..

154
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:49.779
Very well rehearsed.

155
00:07:50.500 --> 00:07:56.509
And talking about their ideas or their music, being very

156
00:07:56.990 --> 00:07:59.850
serious about it. They definitely want to be the heroes

157
00:07:59.889 --> 00:08:03.709
of their own story. We don't share that sickness.

158
00:08:03.990 --> 00:08:06.449
You just want to be a musician and have fun.

159
00:08:06.490 --> 00:08:08.839
No, we want to troll crowds, man. Maybe it comes

160
00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:11.439
from getting beat up. so much when I was a kid.

161
00:08:11.980 --> 00:08:14.699
I know Bill Burr talked about it. He said it

162
00:08:14.899 --> 00:08:17.180
was the only way to come into a room where

163
00:08:17.220 --> 00:08:20.639
I could make everybody like me. Because I watched one

164
00:08:20.660 --> 00:08:23.000
of his specials the other night. I was like, wow,

165
00:08:23.060 --> 00:08:26.959
that's a really interesting way to put it. Because when

166
00:08:26.980 --> 00:08:32.120
you go through rituals of humiliation and beating..

167
00:08:32.210 --> 00:08:34.470
Hi, Kenny. How are you?

168
00:08:34.490 --> 00:08:36.549
Good to see you. It's okay.

169
00:08:37.529 --> 00:08:38.250
She's around.

170
00:08:38.330 --> 00:08:39.049
She's around.

171
00:08:39.889 --> 00:08:41.690
She just dropped me in a golf cart.

172
00:08:42.289 --> 00:08:45.909
Good to see you, baby.

173
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:55.960
And so, given that that is sort of the way everybody...

174
00:08:56.970 --> 00:08:59.950
I mean, pretty much everybody in music, certainly in punk music,

175
00:09:00.309 --> 00:09:02.470
which I don't think everybody had that sickness in the

176
00:09:02.529 --> 00:09:05.129
70s where they had to be serious and had to.

177
00:09:05.090 --> 00:09:09.389
Really present ideas. No, it was vibe and image propulsion.

178
00:09:09.450 --> 00:09:09.870
No doubt.

179
00:09:09.889 --> 00:09:14.549
And even cool surrealist, like, we were talking, and I

180
00:09:14.590 --> 00:09:19.169
love The Clash, but we were talking recently to Captain Sensible.

181
00:09:19.289 --> 00:09:21.159
They came up and played a few songs with us

182
00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:21.720
in Vegas.

183
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:25.960
A few years back, and played some damned songs with

184
00:09:26.019 --> 00:09:28.279
Pinch on the drums, who plays drums with us.

185
00:09:28.860 --> 00:09:30.519
And I remember.

186
00:09:31.899 --> 00:09:34.710
Captain Sensible being sort of derogatory about a lot of

187
00:09:34.730 --> 00:09:38.549
the other, you know, punk bands of the era because

188
00:09:38.590 --> 00:09:40.629
they were serious and these bands that i still like

189
00:09:40.730 --> 00:09:43.940
i love in fact like the clash but but thought

190
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.399
about it from that perspective like when you see and

191
00:09:46.460 --> 00:09:49.419
understand a band like the damned and what they were

192
00:09:49.460 --> 00:09:52.539
trying to present which was not political ideas no any

193
00:09:52.580 --> 00:09:58.730
kind of cogent anything just raw rock and roll that's

194
00:09:58.789 --> 00:10:03.259
really what energy and they didn't even have a word

195
00:10:03.340 --> 00:10:05.659
for it nobody was saying punk at that time they

196
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:12.389
were just going out and being weirdos you know continuing

197
00:10:12.470 --> 00:10:15.789
the great weirdo tradition and that's what we're trying to

198
00:10:15.830 --> 00:10:21.960
do weirdo rock and roll um There's elements of American trash,

199
00:10:22.580 --> 00:10:26.590
as you'll see. My wife, Audra, who does our wardrobe,

200
00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:32.000
she likes to call it... American Schlager culture. So if

201
00:10:32.009 --> 00:10:35.259
you're familiar with Schlager music from Germany, I don't know

202
00:10:35.299 --> 00:10:36.320
why you would be.

203
00:10:36.340 --> 00:10:38.570
I just came from Wacken, so..

204
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:39.559
Okay.

205
00:10:39.620 --> 00:10:43.080
So there's a culture around it, too. Schlager doesn't just

206
00:10:43.139 --> 00:10:44.990
sound like something. It looks like something.

207
00:10:45.110 --> 00:10:47.629
It sounds like shit, to be perfectly honest.

208
00:10:47.649 --> 00:10:51.529
But it looks really good, really trashy, a lot of

209
00:10:51.610 --> 00:10:56.990
mylar and shiny microphones. And I think, if I'm not mistaken,

210
00:10:57.110 --> 00:10:59.759
you know... Audra might rake me over the coals for

211
00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:03.009
saying this, but I think that was sort of her

212
00:11:03.690 --> 00:11:08.190
inspiration for how she dresses us. And, you know, I

213
00:11:08.230 --> 00:11:11.860
just try to stuff a wild monkey suit and live

214
00:11:11.909 --> 00:11:13.440
up to the costume.

215
00:11:13.500 --> 00:11:15.159
Live up to the threads.

216
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:16.440
There it is. There it is.

217
00:11:17.250 --> 00:11:19.289
It's all image propulsion, and I don't know what the

218
00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:20.460
image is, even.

219
00:11:20.700 --> 00:11:23.779
Well, you know what? The thing is, there's a phrase

220
00:11:23.799 --> 00:11:26.759
that I'm going to say that says it all. Shit

221
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:27.220
the bed.

222
00:11:27.539 --> 00:11:31.139
Shit the bed. Yeah. It wouldn't be the first time.

223
00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:34.820
Oh, my God. I just love that.

224
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:36.840
And burn the sheets. You know what I mean? That

225
00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:39.080
doesn't wash off. You know what I mean? Just burn them.

226
00:11:39.580 --> 00:11:42.440
Burn your record player after you listen to our record,

227
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:46.419
because it won't be fit for anything else afterwards.

228
00:11:47.179 --> 00:11:50.000
We're going to shit your record player. We're going to

229
00:11:50.110 --> 00:11:52.649
shit the bed and we're going to shit your ear holes, man.

230
00:11:52.990 --> 00:11:54.350
But you do it so well.

231
00:11:54.409 --> 00:11:57.090
Oh, thank you. I think so. And I think this

232
00:11:57.129 --> 00:11:57.929
is our best yet.

233
00:11:58.669 --> 00:12:00.789
And you know what? I love that you don't take

234
00:12:00.850 --> 00:12:04.039
it so seriously. It's music. Let's just have fun. Escape

235
00:12:04.820 --> 00:12:09.299
the seriousness. That's why we're here. I don't want to

236
00:12:09.340 --> 00:12:12.700
hear that shit. I'll have people call me during a

237
00:12:12.740 --> 00:12:16.000
festival and be like, Did you see the news? I'm like, no,

238
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:18.879
I don't give a fuck. Go obsess over the news.

239
00:12:19.139 --> 00:12:19.620
I'm here.

240
00:12:19.980 --> 00:12:22.600
I'm with them. I obsess over the news, but it

241
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:24.720
doesn't come to my metier.

242
00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:25.700
Right, not here.

243
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:28.279
I'm very disciplined about keeping it out of my metier.

244
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:32.490
We all know, man, you know, I'm moving. They say

245
00:12:32.509 --> 00:12:34.549
you're supposed to move right in your old age. I'm

246
00:12:34.590 --> 00:12:37.590
moving way to the left, man. I'm almost a commie again.

247
00:12:37.610 --> 00:12:44.620
Jesus Christ. Like, what's going on in the world? But anyway.

248
00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:46.700
You're here at Warped Tour.

249
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:47.879
That's not what you're going to see. That's not what

250
00:12:47.899 --> 00:12:49.570
you're going to hear from us. You're going to hear

251
00:12:49.590 --> 00:12:54.129
us shit the bed literally and figuratively. And you're going

252
00:12:54.149 --> 00:13:00.649
to enjoy more covers and appropriations and intellectual property theft.

253
00:13:00.750 --> 00:13:01.549
And just fun.

254
00:13:01.629 --> 00:13:02.110
That's right.

255
00:13:02.649 --> 00:13:05.250
So let's have fun here at Warped Tour. And thanks

256
