00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:12.320
Hi, you have done to rue for wow, for you you.

2
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:21.399
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures of

3
00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:23.600
Pipe Man W four c Y Radio. And I'm here

4
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:26.199
with Victor from Firespawn.

5
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:28.280
And Alex Impader from Firespawn.

6
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:31.640
Nice here at fucking good to be here.

7
00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:32.560
Thanks for having us.

8
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:34.560
Oh, I'm glad to have you here. I'm glad to

9
00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:38.000
be on the holy ground. That's enough for me. Exactly

10
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:41.759
on holy ground, you know, exactly, that's the way it

11
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:44.439
should be called, you know. But even we know in

12
00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:48.719
the States, this as the festival of the whole world.

13
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:51.240
Yeah, definitely, it's such an honor to be here, and

14
00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:54.280
for us, we're here honoring our late singer Alga Petrov.

15
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:58.000
He passed away in cancer five years ago this year

16
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:01.479
and uh and it was like a big deal festival

17
00:01:01.479 --> 00:01:04.000
for him, and walking was there for him when he

18
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:07.760
passed away, sent flowers to the funeral and that's so cool,

19
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:09.200
super cool.

20
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:12.280
Like, I don't know any other festival that would do that,

21
00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:15.480
to be honest, you know, maybe they would do it

22
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:21.920
for a I don't know, like fucking Judas Priest, But like,

23
00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:26.680
I don't know any other festival that would care enough

24
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:28.200
to do that.

25
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:31.640
Yeah, and during the pandemic they helped musicians and crew

26
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:32.159
as well.

27
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:34.879
Actually, oh my god, I see that's so cool, Like,

28
00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:35.760
you know.

29
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:42.120
For the Stockholm Doesn't the scene, LG were like Judas Priests.

30
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:44.719
You know, he was an icon and a fucking hero

31
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:49.000
and the Stockholm Doesntal scene nice. You know, countless of

32
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:52.560
bands has tried to copy what he did.

33
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:57.560
You know, he was a big deal. But it felt good.

34
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:01.519
When Victor and I attended the funeral and we saw

35
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:03.120
flowers from wucking open air.

36
00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:05.040
Wow, it felt really good.

37
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.719
Yeah. I would be blown away if it were made.

38
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:12.960
I would never expect that wouldn't happen in the United States,

39
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:17.759
you know. So how many times have you guys played

40
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:19.680
voking with firestpawn?

41
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:23.159
This is the first. Actually I played here with Entombed

42
00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:26.039
and Demi Borger and the Witchery as well, but not

43
00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:28.400
with fire Spawn. So maybe it's going to be a tradition.

44
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:33.120
I think the last time I was here was twenty

45
00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:36.080
fifteen with Naglfar Nice.

46
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:41.520
So how did you guys end up together doing this

47
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:42.719
fire Spawn thing?

48
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:49.439
It was like we were in similar situations with Entombed.

49
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:56.360
We had the l G and Alex had I'm assuming

50
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:02.319
all problems that they didn't really dress. They got like

51
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:06.479
a big problem over the years, and there were a

52
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:10.159
situation when there was like an issue about the name

53
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:12.919
and tomb. Then there was like two it developed in

54
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.159
the two versions of the band and Toomed then and

55
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.560
Tom Dad, and it was quite un sexy, to be honest.

56
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:20.680
Yeah, I hate that crap.

57
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:24.840
Yeah, yeah, it really sucked. So me and LG and

58
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:27.240
the old guys, I would say, but we really wanted

59
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.960
just to play music like death metal and stuff. So

60
00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:35.520
I had some songs and we were like, let's do something.

61
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.560
And Alex you had like similar situations with Necrophobic at

62
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:39.159
the same.

63
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:44.560
Time, Yeah, because our singer at the time was locked

64
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:50.599
up in prison, so to say. So, yeah, actually quite

65
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:53.919
interesting because I talked with LG to do something new

66
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:57.599
and fresh, a bit more aggressive and not the typical

67
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:04.159
Stockholm sounds ish, and he told me that I should

68
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.680
get in contact with Victor because he and Victor had

69
00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:10.840
this conversation, you know, just at the same time.

70
00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:13.039
Coincidence.

71
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:16.759
So when I called Victor and said that, you know,

72
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.319
I had the same kind of conversation with LG as

73
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:19.759
you did.

74
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:21.360
Let's do something together.

75
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:29.480
Nice and yeah, so it was. And apparently Victor had

76
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:33.680
like ten eleven songs already written and done, so we

77
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:37.959
had the whole album already done by Victor before we

78
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:41.040
even started the band, you know, because I was fucking prepared.

79
00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:43.160
I love that. That's great.

80
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:43.399
Ye.

81
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:46.319
It was the three of us, so I think about

82
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:51.000
two years something like that, and then Frederick Volker joined

83
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:55.079
because he played in Ecrophobic at the time as I did,

84
00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:57.480
so I asked him if he want to join because

85
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:02.040
I wanted his type of solos. And then later Victor

86
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:06.720
talked to when he was in Gothenburg recording drums for

87
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:08.079
Raised Fists.

88
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:12.519
But we knew he were previously in Dark Funerals.

89
00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:14.759
We knew that he was fast as a fucking shark,

90
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:17.720
you know, the kind of drummer that you wanted your Firestbonn.

91
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:26.040
So yeah, for two years we checked checked our options

92
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:30.079
in the musicians, and yeah, it's like I think we

93
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:31.399
found the best ones.

94
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:36.360
It's kind of like you're like a super group in

95
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:40.759
my opinion. Uh oh, it's kind of like your supergroup

96
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:42.160
in my opinion. You know.

97
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:47.240
You know a lot of people say that, and you know,

98
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:51.040
it's it's a it's a compliment, no question about it.

99
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:54.720
But I'd like to see Firestbon as a group of

100
00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:58.600
friends that's more like to hang out and liked the

101
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.920
kind of music that we play, and we do play

102
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.439
in other bands, and we are non musicians in the

103
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:05.800
Swedish scene.

104
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:05.759
So.

105
00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:11.560
For people on the outside, it could seem like a supergroup,

106
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:13.240
but that was never our intention.

107
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:16.240
I don't think it should ever be that intention, Like

108
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:19.079
you said it right, like it should be fun, yeah,

109
00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:21.600
and it should be for musicianship.

110
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:22.160
Yeah.

111
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:24.639
You know, we are a group of friends who really

112
00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:27.839
enjoy hanging out together and play the kind of music

113
00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:31.480
that we really enjoy both playing on stage and listening

114
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:33.439
into at home on the stereoid.

115
00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:35.319
You know, that's the only way it should be. And

116
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:38.360
I think that's why you're at Vakin because Vakin is

117
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:41.240
a certain kind of community and we're all friends.

118
00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:46.120
Definitely, definitely. Yeah, it's as you said, see you know

119
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.720
friends and like life as similar sort of people. Like

120
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:55.000
when we were sound checking today line checking, I saw

121
00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:56.920
people frontroll waiting for the show, and I in my

122
00:06:57.079 --> 00:06:59.279
instant thought was like, yeah, that's that's me standing in

123
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:01.759
the front troll. It's like I could be there, you know,

124
00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:05.079
we're all the same. But one other thing that came

125
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:09.120
to mind with Firespawn is that even though all of

126
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:13.560
us are in different bands at the same time, it

127
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.879
it doesn't mean that it's like an obstacle or a

128
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:22.800
problem sort of thing. It's we're actually used to being

129
00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:28.519
in active bands and scheduling with different bands and stuff,

130
00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.639
so it's actually kind of helpful. We don't have any

131
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:33.439
jobs that's you know, taking up our time.

132
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:36.319
And do you think too that it makes it even

133
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:39.480
more interesting and more fun that you don't have to

134
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:41.839
do the same thing all the time by having being

135
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:45.759
in different bands that you can like can explore and

136
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:50.519
all your different wants and musicianship in different ways.

137
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:53.120
Exactly likely for us was a blank canvas and with

138
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:55.680
fire Spawn and they're like, really, you know, fun to

139
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:57.879
do something that we haven't done before.

140
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:03.040
Right, So what was your both of you, what was

141
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:09.480
the first time what happened where you knew death metal

142
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:10.639
is what you wanted to do?

143
00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:18.600
Oh very early, Like I remember heard the side for

144
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:25.720
the first time and that was like like like wow,

145
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:27.759
this is for me, Like this is so brutal, this

146
00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:30.920
is so cool for me, Like d Side, Morbid indod

147
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:36.360
and Candle Corpse. It's like the like three major bands

148
00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:40.440
that really shaped me. Nice and Suffocation of Death as well,

149
00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:42.559
of course, and that's a lot of little bands. US

150
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:46.559
is amazing for death metal Sweden as well, and the

151
00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.159
bunch of Polish death metal bands the great as well.

152
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:54.919
So I was, I don't know, ten or eleven. I

153
00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:57.840
think it was quite early on, and of.

154
00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:02.840
You, yeah, I remembered quite clearly. I think I was

155
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:06.759
eleven or twelve, and I heard the Sebatura album Kosad

156
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:10.840
that was like a musical fucking bitch slap.

157
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:15.440
I kid you not. That was what the fuck.

158
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:16.360
Is this right?

159
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:18.960
The most brutal thing I've ever heard.

160
00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:22.480
So then there I knew that this is the kind

161
00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:25.759
of music I want to do, and you know what,

162
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:31.159
this is absolutely insane. Like thirty years later, Max Cavalilera

163
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:36.919
rated his ten top songs that he wish he wrote,

164
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:40.639
and I kid you not, guess which song is on

165
00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:45.679
his top ten list tell us the Emperor, Yeah, the

166
00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:47.120
Emperor with firez Pong.

167
00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:48.159
Wow.

168
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:51.799
Yeah, So like there's not much more cred you can

169
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:52.519
get the next.

170
00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:57.200
Exactly, my childhood idol has our song on his top

171
00:09:57.240 --> 00:09:57.759
ten list.

172
00:09:57.840 --> 00:10:02.799
You know that was that's insane, pretty insane, that's totally insane.

173
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:03.440
Yeah.

174
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:09.960
So my first introduction was this band that was in

175
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:12.639
the they were in the beginning, and I saw them

176
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:17.519
at the first crossover show ever. I saw them at

177
00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:21.039
the first crossover show ever where punks and metal heads

178
00:10:21.039 --> 00:10:24.600
could be in the same room. Because like back when

179
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:26.840
I was a teenager, if you were a long hair

180
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:28.639
you couldn't go to a punk show, and if you

181
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:30.879
were a punk, you couldn't go a metal show. And

182
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:34.200
there was a place of Sun Valley Sportsman's Lodge, which

183
00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:38.279
was like an Elks lodge. It wasn't a venue, no security,

184
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:42.200
and it had three punk bands, three metal bands. The

185
00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:46.360
three punk bands were coc pre Pepper, they were hardcore punk,

186
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:52.840
The Descendants and Suicidal before they crossed over. Okay, on

187
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:55.720
the metal side, it was just Span Savage Grace. They

188
00:10:55.759 --> 00:10:58.679
were a fresh band. They toured with Motorhead, but they

189
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:03.759
never really got like, you know, big dark Angel And

190
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:06.200
then you read for the headliner, I'll show it to you.

191
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:09.159
Look at the bottom of the back of my eighties

192
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:14.240
metal vest Battle Vest, Oh, Persistent, yep. They were the

193
00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:19.919
headliner in the very beginning of Possess and I was like, oh,

194
00:11:19.960 --> 00:11:25.039
my fucking god, as it was like it's epic, you know,

195
00:11:25.720 --> 00:11:29.360
set I think it was before even seven Churches came out,

196
00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:33.440
you know, and it was like, you know, cause in

197
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:37.879
my time, it had to graduate. There was no thrash

198
00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:40.840
in the beginning, you know, the heaviest stuff was made

199
00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:44.879
in in priests. And then Slayer Metallica came out and

200
00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:47.799
I was at their first shows ever, and then I

201
00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:51.440
saw it Possessed and to me, it blew both of

202
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:55.759
them away. And I loved Slayer, favorite band, but yeah,

203
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:59.399
Possessed took it to a whole other level. Yeah, so

204
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:04.360
that's really cool, awesome. So what what do you have

205
00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:07.559
going on next? After Vadkin? How you top vaking? You

206
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:09.320
can't really top vokin, right.

207
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:12.679
Yeah, well that's hard to top.

208
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:17.759
But next weekend we will play at parties on in

209
00:12:17.799 --> 00:12:22.879
Germany and Alcatraz I think is Belgium. So we have

210
00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:29.919
two good festival shows next weekend, and then we play

211
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:35.399
I think I think it's the weekend after that also

212
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:41.240
at Cheltenbach, Okay in Austria. Cool, and then we have

213
00:12:42.399 --> 00:12:45.240
a Swedish festival later this fall.

214
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:49.799
You mentioned Gothenburg. By the way, I played hockey on

215
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:54.519
Bondi field. You played bondy No, I played hockey like

216
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:57.039
I went. I was in Gothenburg and they had a

217
00:12:57.039 --> 00:12:59.960
Bondi field, but we had a bunch of hockey games

218
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:02.279
we were playing, like there were like twelve hot I

219
00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:03.919
never saw a Bondi field.

220
00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:06.159
So you play hockey on a Bondi field.

221
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:10.000
Yeah, And I was like, Swede, that's insane, I know,

222
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:11.320
I'm like that.

223
00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:15.759
I couldn't believe how big it was. Yeah, oh my god.

224
00:13:15.799 --> 00:13:18.960
You know it's like it's way bigger than a hockey field.

225
00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:22.799
Oh yeah, way bigger than an American football field. Even

226
00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:26.639
like it was we had twelve hockey games going on

227
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:28.080
on the one field.

228
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:32.320
You know, imagine the bandy ball is super small, way

229
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:33.600
smaller than a hockey puck.

230
00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:36.480
Really yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Because I never played it,

231
00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:38.360
I would like to play it though, you know.

232
00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:40.360
Because it's a super fast game.

233
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:42.720
I love that. See, I love that. It's like metal,

234
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:49.480
you know exactly. And so you're also a tattoo artist.

235
00:13:49.799 --> 00:13:51.320
I am, so.

236
00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:56.559
Is that arm your left arm? Is that that reverse thing?

237
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.200
I just found out about it, Like, instead of blacking

238
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:02.879
out your arm, it's like the reverse. I don't know

239
00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:05.679
whether it's it's termed. I forgot what it's termed.

240
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:06.840
That's the right term.

241
00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:11.200
But it's kind of is because I had a sleeve

242
00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:15.679
on this arm before, which I did in the nineties,

243
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:19.039
so it didn't look look very cool, so to say.

244
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:24.960
But it was North themed sleeve with all the North gods.

245
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:28.919
But my wife is also a tattoo artists, which I

246
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:32.120
have my studio together with. Well that's he did a

247
00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:35.159
complete makeover and cover up on my arm.

248
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:36.919
That's why it's so dark.

249
00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:41.440
So I like it though. Here that is brilliant right there.

250
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:43.720
I was looking at that that I've been staring at

251
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:44.799
me at the whole erand.

252
00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:49.919
The eye of odin nice and there's things underneath here,

253
00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:52.679
but you can't really see it because everything is so dark.

254
00:14:53.039 --> 00:14:56.720
Yeah, but I think it looks cool actually, Like I

255
00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:00.679
think that looks cooler than just blackie your arm.

256
00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:01.759
Oh yeah, for sure.

257
00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:03.000
And that's what I like about.

258
00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:05.799
You know, blackout isn't really my thing.

259
00:15:06.360 --> 00:15:11.759
I like blessed overs, but I still like, you know,

260
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:17.480
see some kind of motive on the arm, not not just.

261
00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:20.720
A pitch black blackouts.

262
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:23.960
Yeah, you gotta have some kind of ordistry, right, you know,

263
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:27.000
because that's what it is. It's art, yeah, exactly, you know,

264
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:33.240
so tell everybody how they can check out all fire

265
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:36.919
Spun stuff. Buy your merch because they can't listen to

266
00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:38.919
my show. And let's say buy your merch, and also

267
00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:41.679
tell them, you know about how they can contact you

268
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:43.159
for tattoo art too.

269
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:48.519
Yeah, well, I think easiest way is to go to Instagram,

270
00:15:49.759 --> 00:15:54.879
to the fire Spawn official Instagram and if you want

271
00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:56.039
to buy our merch, we have.

272
00:15:56.080 --> 00:15:58.480
That at helloil dot.

273
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:03.080
Com is it's dot com slash fires bomb, I think.

274
00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:09.960
And if you're interested to see what I do tattoo wise,

275
00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:14.039
you can go to the Morbid Impalement tattoo.

276
00:16:14.559 --> 00:16:16.519
All love that name. That's so metal.

277
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.440
Yeah, it's a wordplay, you see, because it's my wife,

278
00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:25.879
Ida Morbida and I'm the impaler, so morbid in payment.

279
00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:30.399
That's so cool. Did you meet her at the tattoo

280
00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:33.840
shop or they just turn out and turn out you're

281
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:35.799
both tattoo artists, you know.

282
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:41.799
Interestingly enough, she was a big fan of mine way

283
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:45.120
before I met her, so I started to notice her

284
00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:49.279
in the audience on my side of the stage, and

285
00:16:49.320 --> 00:16:54.320
then then all of a sudden she offered me like this,

286
00:16:54.519 --> 00:16:58.519
kind of endorsement tattoo and you know, I'm the only

287
00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:02.159
artist that she endorsed with a tatoo week because she

288
00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:05.640
never do that kind of thing. And it turns out

289
00:17:05.920 --> 00:17:09.359
that she did that only to you know, get the

290
00:17:09.480 --> 00:17:11.680
opportunity to chat a bit with me.

291
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:14.640
I love it, and you know the rest is history.

292
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:15.440
Now we're married.

293
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:20.400
Yeah, there it is. She was a smart woman, right. Yeah.

294
00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:24.039
Well you guys fucking rock. I'm glad you were here

295
00:17:24.119 --> 00:17:26.720
