Limberlost Release New Single "Give it to Me(Redux)"New EP Villian Due Out Later This Year! 

Interview with Limberlost. Steve Unger is in the band. He is formerly of metal Church and Autograph

Explosive. Fierce. Unapologetic. Limberlost kicks off 2026 with a re-imagined version of their 2023 only released in Europe, fan-favorite anthem "Give it to Me", transforming it into a modern rock powerhouse that hits harder than ever. Reborn from its original roots, this version fuses high-energy guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and powerhouse vocals that redefine the band’s signature sound. 

“Give It to Me (Redux)” is a declaration of strength, passion, and pure rock ’n’ roll adrenaline — a sonic punch that dares listeners to take back their Power and Claim what’s theirs. With production that’s both cinematic and raw, it bridges classic rock intensity with a cutting-edge alternative edge, appealing to fans of Halestorm, Evanescence, Linkin Park, and The Pretty Reckless.

Lyrically, the song captures the hunger for authenticity and emotional connection in a world of noise and distraction — a cry for something real and uncompromising. Backed by their acclaimed new album Beautiful Scars, three SMR Top 50 singles, and 2 award winning videos with over a million views each, Limberlost proves once again that their fire only burns hotter with time.

Turn it up, feel the pulse, and demand it all — this is “Give It to Me” like you’ve never heard it before.

Limberlost is a powerhouse American rock band delivering a bold fusion of modern and classic rock with soaring vocals, electrifying guitar riffs, and thunderous rhythms. Known for their anthemic sound, raw energy, and emotionally charged storytelling, they create music that resonates with fans of classic rock legends and contemporary rock revivalists alike. Their songs capture themes of strength, resilience, and empowerment, making them a force in the rock scene. With a commanding stage presence and dynamic compositions, Limberlost is redefining female-fronted rock, bringing authenticity, passion, and rock authority to audiences worldwide. 

Limberlost’s rise is backed by Paul Crosby Management, led by Paul Crosby, drummer of the multi-platinum rock band Saliva. His industry expertise and strategic vision have positioned the band for massive success in today’s rock landscape.

Limberlost is known for their captivating female led vocals. Leads Brittany Lauren and Sammie Gorham both classically trained and accomplished opera singers that bring their beauty, power and precision to cut through rock’s sometimes predictable expectations.

Adding to their momentum is the recent addition of Metal Hall of Fame bass player Steve Unger, known for his work with legendary bands Metal Church and Autograph. His veteran stage presence and technical prowess bring a new depth to Limberlost’s already dynamic sound, elevating their live performances and recording capabilities to the next level.

If that’s not enough the addition of Steve’s son Devon Unger on Lead Guitar. Not only can his melodies mesmerize, and his shredding solos make you want to scream “Hell Ya!” but he will have the ladies eating out of his hands. 

Wrap it up with Anthony Ciarochi on Keys and Mike Burt (Founder) on drums. Two solid industry veterans that anchor the stage presence and the sound.

5
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:25.600
deep beside all the.

6
00:00:25.559 --> 00:00:29.239
Dreams of the girl you want me to me think.

7
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:30.120
Gush.

8
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:32.399
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures Pipe

9
00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:38.000
Man W four c Y Radio, and I'm here with

10
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:43.600
an amazing band that has some incredible new music.

11
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:50.039
So let's welcome to a show. Limberlost. Wow.

12
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:50.960
Thank you.

13
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:54.719
So I gotta tell you it's actually funny.

14
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:57.359
I mean, I'll know how funny she'll think it is

15
00:00:57.399 --> 00:00:59.840
when she hears it. But so, I was just getting

16
00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:04.120
my hair done similar to yours Britney, because I have

17
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:08.840
this side shaved, uh, you know down but uh and

18
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:14.519
somebody there who I know, she actually lost an arm

19
00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:19.439
during COVID. So and while I'm saying your name and

20
00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:23.280
consider it was right after that I'm like, well, that's

21
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:28.239
kind of weird because it kind of said like, oh, Limb.

22
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:29.959
Limb, Limb is lost.

23
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.359
I know, I know, Well that's been my big joke

24
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.439
actually being here and in a fitness camp in the

25
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:41.959
middle of nowhere. Is that my limber you know, always lost.

26
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:45.599
All the time.

27
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:48.200
So it's pretty great. I love I love the name

28
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:48.480
of the.

29
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:51.159
Band, but actually it comes from the name of a forest.

30
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:51.799
And where is it?

31
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:52.280
Georgia?

32
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:52.920
Is that where?

33
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:53.959
Uh?

34
00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:54.560
Indiana?

35
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:56.120
Indiana?

36
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:59.879
Because Georgia kind of scared me, you know, I'm a Yankee,

37
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:02.719
and like I'm thinking that it's like in the deep

38
00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:06.159
woods of Georgia where they're like still lynching people or something.

39
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:09.680
Whoa no very possible.

40
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:13.680
Our our original guitar player, who was the guy that

41
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:17.719
I started the band with his grandparents or he's from

42
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:21.680
Georgia and his grandmother used to call the woods out

43
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:23.400
behind their house where they send him to get a

44
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:24.719
switch to get his ass beat with.

45
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:25.360
Uh.

46
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:29.120
He called it the Limberlost and the Room.

47
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:31.400
But then we did the whole research of it and

48
00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:34.319
it's actually a there's actually a story and a legend

49
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:37.080
of a swamp up in Indiana, and that's where the

50
00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:38.039
whole thing came from.

51
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:41.400
So I want to hear that story. Let's hear that story.

52
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:46.319
Oh well, well, well.

53
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:48.759
To make it real brief, it was a guy his

54
00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:51.960
name was Limber GYM. Don't know how he got that name,

55
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:54.719
but that was his name. He walked himself into a

56
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:57.199
forest and he got lost, and.

57
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:10.159
He uh Limber Jim that's right, Limber Jim.

58
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:11.800
And he walked.

59
00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:14.879
Himself into a forest and he got lost, and he

60
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:18.199
was to the point of thinking this would be the

61
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:21.479
end for him, and he calls to a higher power

62
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:24.360
and he prayed and he got himself out. He walked

63
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:26.719
into straight lines in that moment, and he went forward.

64
00:03:26.759 --> 00:03:29.000
And so the story is a funny little story when

65
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:30.840
I say it like that. But the message that we.

66
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.639
Take from it is that no matter how lost you

67
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:37.319
are or how lost we feel, we have a our

68
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:39.360
mission is to just keep going and that we will

69
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:41.520
we are on our straight path, and that it will

70
00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:42.719
we will find.

71
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:44.599
Our way out, you know, and everyone.

72
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:46.759
And that's the message we give to all of our fans,

73
00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:49.120
to the lost ones we call them, because everybody gets

74
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:50.400
to a point in their life where they feel, how

75
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:52.199
am I going to get out of this? Or how

76
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:54.479
there's no way that this could move on for me,

77
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:56.240
And that's kind of where our music comes from. It

78
00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:58.719
stems from that place, and it's supposed to be a

79
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:00.000
beacon of light to help you out.

80
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:00.800
So there you go.

81
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:01.719
See.

82
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:06.000
I love that because eka binds both of my personalities,

83
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:10.159
like you have my music metal head personality, and then

84
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:14.439
I'm also a motivational speakers and a motivational personality all

85
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:17.560
in one. I love that, and I would never out

86
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:19.399
I would never out you brought up the story. I

87
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:21.439
wouldn't even never ask how you got your band name

88
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:27.240
because it's the stupidest question ever last Okay, but I'm

89
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.639
glad the story came out because it is a pretty

90
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:32.199
funny and good one and I like the message.

91
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:37.120
So there you go, so tell us.

92
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:42.040
About the new kind of formation of the band and like,

93
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:44.839
you know, you got Steve with you now, and like

94
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:49.560
just like it's being reborn into something better.

95
00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:55.240
You want to say this one all right?

96
00:04:56.360 --> 00:04:59.720
For Steve, She's pointing to the people at the fitness camp.

97
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:04.680
Okay, for myself.

98
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:08.319
I've known these guys for a long time, and you know,

99
00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:12.920
go back twelve fifteen years, and you know, we crowsed

100
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:13.319
a lot of.

101
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:17.399
Paths doing shows together and such, and we've always liked

102
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:18.240
each other as people.

103
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:21.199
And I always thought they were a really good band

104
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:24.319
at the time, back in the day, wasn't really my

105
00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:27.720
style of music because they were more like, you know, bluesy.

106
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:31.399
There's anything wrong with blues, just not really my thing.

107
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:35.920
But when they came back from Europe on their tour

108
00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:39.160
and they decided to rebuild the band because it kept

109
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:43.600
tell the pieces. After that tour, they went to woodshed

110
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:45.720
and started writing some new material and they wanted to

111
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:48.519
take the band in a little bit different direction. And

112
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:50.800
when they send me the tracks of what they were

113
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:51.519
coming up with.

114
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:54.759
I was like, damn, this ship is really really good.

115
00:05:55.480 --> 00:06:00.160
And yeah, and it's funny because they were originally to

116
00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:04.079
my son Devin to play the guitar, and you know,

117
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:06.519
my son being what he is, he took like a

118
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:09.360
week to get back to him, and so Mike reached

119
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:11.160
out to me and he's like, hey, man, we're looking

120
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:13.199
for a guitar player and a bass player, and you know,

121
00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.439
if you know, we can grab your kid and you know,

122
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:18.360
if you know anybody that's interested in the bass. And

123
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:21.639
that's when he sent me the material and I was like, shit, man,

124
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:23.959
I think that I got your bass player and your

125
00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:27.279
guitar player and my son Devin and I listened to

126
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:29.240
it and we called him back and then dude, if

127
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:32.759
you guys are aware in and so here we are

128
00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:35.360
a year later, and you know, a couple of videos

129
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:37.279
later and the songs that hit the charts and things

130
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:38.079
are going really good.

131
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:40.000
All we got to do now is get her asses

132
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:41.480
out on the road and do the live show.

133
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:43.680
There it is, there, it is. But you know what

134
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:46.439
I love about that is you got the father and

135
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:51.000
son thing going there, and like I think about it too.

136
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:53.480
So that's why I'm asking you, do you do you

137
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:57.639
think back in the eighties that you have ever imagined

138
00:06:57.839 --> 00:06:59.959
playing in a band with your.

139
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:04.959
Back in the eighties, I couldn't even imagine having a kid, right.

140
00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:07.439
I having it.

141
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:10.240
I thought that having a kid would be.

142
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:17.040
Like a death sentence, you know, my my career would

143
00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:19.560
be done, and uh you know, I wouldn't be able.

144
00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:21.199
To tour and I'd be stuck home with a kid

145
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:23.399
and all that kind of stuff. And uh, you know,

146
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:25.560
it ended up being a dating It happened to me.

147
00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:27.120
I love it.

148
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:30.279
But yeah, he came out of the room with a

149
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:34.040
guitar in his hand and ever since and uh, I

150
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:36.920
what I know? And then I sent him to lessons

151
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:39.319
and they now as far as there past a teacher.

152
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:41.800
Man, he's way better than I am on it on

153
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:42.839
a guitar or a base.

154
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:45.720
But uh, yeah, it's pretty cool looking over and watching

155
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:48.240
my son just blow people away, and.

156
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:52.439
It's cool that we can have that nowadays. Like back then,

157
00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:56.959
I've never been in a band with my dad because

158
00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:00.839
whatever music he was listening to was definitely And it's

159
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:04.399
like so great now. Like I do coverage up music

160
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:08.680
festivals all over the US, UK, Europe and you see people,

161
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:12.959
you know, it's parents and kids at metal head shows

162
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.920
and like I put my son in his first mashpit

163
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:22.240
ever and two of my grandkids and it's like it's like, wow,

164
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:24.399
I would have never thought that, like I would.

165
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:26.040
And you know, it's funny.

166
00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:29.360
Me and my bro used to always say, like, you know,

167
00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:33.759
when we get older, what are our kids gonna listen to?

168
00:08:34.759 --> 00:08:38.799
That makes our stuff seem like, you know, like we're old,

169
00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.080
you know, like we're listening a Slayer and of course

170
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:46.159
metal Church and Metallica and Exous. It's like, what could

171
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:50.879
possibly be more rebellious that our kids would do?

172
00:08:51.639 --> 00:08:54.200
And it went the other way, it went, they're just

173
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:55.200
joining us.

174
00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:55.879
Yeah.

175
00:08:55.960 --> 00:08:58.960
We Luckily for me, my kids grew up around the

176
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:01.480
eighty stuff, so that's kind of what they fell in

177
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:04.559
love with. And then Devin's first concert was a Kiss

178
00:09:04.600 --> 00:09:07.799
concert when he was five years old. Uh, my agent

179
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:12.240
ended up getting me front row tickets. I had tickets

180
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:13.399
to go to the show, but they were, you know,

181
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:15.879
somewhere back in the nosebleades probably, And he called me

182
00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:17.320
up like a day or two before the show, and

183
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:18.360
he's like, you're.

184
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:20.200
Gonna love me, and I'm like, nick, I already do

185
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:21.960
love you. And he's like, no, you're gonna really love

186
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.080
me now. I got your three front row tickets for

187
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:27.399
Kiss tomorrow night. Wow about shipped my pants, and uh

188
00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:31.480
so I brought my son front row, dead center and

189
00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:34.720
he ended up becoming part of the show. Paul Stanley

190
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:38.279
pulled him up on stage and gave him his guitar

191
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:39.600
and everything, but we still got.

192
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:42.399
The guitar here at my in my studio and it's

193
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:44.720
uh with as experience and probably a life changing thing

194
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:48.039
for him. So uh as for him seeing Kiss his

195
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:50.960
first time and being pulled on stage and ended up

196
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:53.200
with a guitar that kind of set the hook of

197
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:55.159
what was already I was already trying to, you know,

198
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:57.559
get him to go that direction, and you know, Kiss

199
00:09:58.080 --> 00:09:59.960
got the hook with them, kind of like Elvis Presley

200
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:03.039
for me because that was my first concert and you know,

201
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:04.919
first time you're at a show, and you see something

202
00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:05.600
blow you away.

203
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:07.120
It leaves an impression on you.

204
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:10.120
So oh, I know that feeling, like we all have

205
00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:12.240
that feeling, like, you know.

206
00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:15.679
For me, it was the first club show actually.

207
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:20.360
Cause my dad moved me from Jersey to LA in

208
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:23.519
May of nineteen eighty. Imagine what a time to move

209
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:27.720
to LA. And I went to the Roxy to a

210
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:30.320
Motley Cruise show before they ever had an album, before

211
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:34.159
they were glam, when they were basically like horror punk,

212
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:36.639
and I remember walking out of that show, I'm like,

213
00:10:36.799 --> 00:10:39.159
I'm never going to a real concert ever again.

214
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:44.200
It is really cool to see big bands in a

215
00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:48.000
smaller vent. You can actually get to see them, you know,

216
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:50.639
and see all the little things that they do that

217
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:52.799
you don't see when they're in a big, enormous stage

218
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:55.080
and you know, twenty thousand people in the crowd and

219
00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:56.759
you happen to be back in the nosebleeds. You know,

220
00:10:57.159 --> 00:10:58.960
you don't get to really be part of the show,

221
00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:00.879
even though you're there exactly.

222
00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:05.159
And I love to hear that about Kiss bringing your

223
00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:07.799
kid up on stage, because everybody likes to throw shade

224
00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:10.279
at Kiss, but Kiss is what got me into music.

225
00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:14.080
I remember being at the Jersey Shore at the Boardwalk

226
00:11:14.840 --> 00:11:17.159
the first Kiss album first came out, but I didn't

227
00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:19.000
know who they were. I was playing some game and

228
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:21.080
I won, and it was for record albums. I picked

229
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:23.519
the ones for record albums, and I just saw their

230
00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:26.919
faces on the album, like, that's the one I want.

231
00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:29.639
And then I became like a Kiss fanatic right after that.

232
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:37.240
And the cool thing about that concert was that after

233
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:40.480
Paul gave him the guitar, Doc McGhee came up to

234
00:11:40.559 --> 00:11:43.000
us and invited us backstage after the show, and Paul

235
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:44.559
came in and hung out with my son for about

236
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:47.960
twenty minutes. And I didn't I didn't have a camera

237
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.919
with me at the time, and he took a picture.

238
00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:53.360
He had some buddy backstage take a picture, and he

239
00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:55.600
took my address and he's like, hey man, this picture

240
00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:56.039
turns out.

241
00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:56.600
I'll make sure you.

242
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:00.240
Get a copy. Oh yeah, yeah sure. But like three

243
00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:04.960
weeks later, a big package showed up eight by ten. Hey, Devin,

244
00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:07.080
you know, it was great to see you keep rocking

245
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:10.320
with your dad, you know, Paul Stanley and you know,

246
00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:13.320
wrote a letter and signed all the pictures and everything,

247
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:16.840
and he followed through and you know that, Yeah, definitely

248
00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:17.960
blew me away because it was like.

249
00:12:17.879 --> 00:12:19.759
I've been a Kiss fan since I was my son's

250
00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:21.000
age at that time.

251
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:24.759
And you know, it just kind of like renewed my

252
00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:27.200
sense of you know, I made the right choice just

253
00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:29.080
as a bitch and band, you know, they actually followed

254
00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:31.240
through and did something like this for a fan.

255
00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:34.360
I love hearing that because as big as they are,

256
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:36.720
you know, like some of the bands out there, when

257
00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:39.320
they get that big, a ghosted or head or whatever,

258
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:43.240
and you know, it's it's good to hear when bands

259
00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:46.360
are acting like that because that's going to create the

260
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:49.679
future generation that's going to be into the music, you know,

261
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:55.960
and like you made like he made your kid's life forever. Yeah,

262
00:12:56.080 --> 00:12:59.600
you know, I had that experience with my couple of

263
00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:03.399
micro children. Like one of my grandchildren his favorite band

264
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:06.519
was and he was like, I don't know, nine was

265
00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:11.000
five Finger Death Punch, So I was. I used to

266
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:13.519
bring him to festivals with me, and I brought him

267
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:18.519
and he actually got interviewed by Ivan because I had

268
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:19.519
an interview with Ivan.

269
00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:19.960
Ivan.

270
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:23.399
While I'm setting up his interviewing him, Ivan brought him

271
00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:26.840
up on stage and then you know, we went upside

272
00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:31.039
stage for Tremanney and and Mark and his other guitarists

273
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:33.200
were sitting there, coming over to him and playing guitar

274
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:35.919
to him with their back to the crowd, and like

275
00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:39.320
you never forget crap like that, you know, Did.

276
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:40.960
I haven't beat anybody up while you were with him?

277
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:42.360
Say that again?

278
00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:44.679
Did I haven't beat anybody up while you were with him?

279
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:46.039
Uh?

280
00:13:47.200 --> 00:13:49.679
No, he was still, he was sober.

281
00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:55.639
I seen him come back at backstage.

282
00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:57.720
I was hanging out in your bus and he came

283
00:13:57.759 --> 00:14:01.399
back out stage. And so guy that was wearing his

284
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:03.799
his shirt said something that.

285
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:07.320
He didn't like. He's like, give me that shirt. You

286
00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:10.879
don't worthy wearing that shirt? You like, rip the shirt

287
00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:11.639
right off the guys.

288
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:16.159
Oh my god. Those were the drunk days though, right yeah.

289
00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:18.240
And he goes, he runs on the bus and you

290
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:20.000
went you had like picky bucks and the dude's the

291
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.720
guy to get back from the shirt.

292
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:23.600
Wow?

293
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:25.759
Yeah, kid walked off without her shirt.

294
00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:28.919
Yeah. He was a hot mess during those days, for sure.

295
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:31.519
Oh man.

296
00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:35.840
Yeah, So like this is why it's all about right here,

297
00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:38.320
And like that's why it's cool that I think your

298
00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:41.799
son's in the band too. And you know, how do

299
00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:45.399
you guys feel about having a father and son in

300
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:45.960
the band.

301
00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:49.960
Oh, I love it. I think it's amazing.

302
00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:53.480
It's it's you know, like Steve said, Steve and I

303
00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:58.000
go back probably fifteen years and what was really funny, Devin,

304
00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:00.519
I don't know how old he was. He had to

305
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:04.120
be probably fourteen or something like that. Actually, his one

306
00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:05.480
of his bands. I don't know if it was their

307
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:07.679
first show, but we used to have this club called

308
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:11.240
Louis G's down in Tacoma where we're all from, and

309
00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:15.720
my eighties band was doing its thirty year reunion show

310
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.240
and this little band since Circus opened up for us,

311
00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:22.240
and I guess, I swear to god, you had to.

312
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.279
I think Steve even got up and sang at that.

313
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:26.240
Weren't you singing for him back then?

314
00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:28.279
Oh? I think we got up a jam to Detroit

315
00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:29.440
Rucks City or something like that.

316
00:15:29.559 --> 00:15:31.120
Yeah, something like that. Yeah.

317
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:34.360
So I mean that's that was my first exposure to these, uh,

318
00:15:34.519 --> 00:15:37.360
to Steve and his and his boys. But you know,

319
00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:38.919
i'd know Steve, I think a little bit before that.

320
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:41.759
But you know, it's it was just kind of odd

321
00:15:41.799 --> 00:15:43.879
how it all came. I mean, Brittany can attest this.

322
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:46.200
We're driving down the road and we're starting to figure

323
00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:48.000
out how we're going to get players and doing all

324
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.679
this stuff, and and I, you know, we talked to

325
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:54.120
our manager, Paul Crosby, you know, from Saliva, and he's

326
00:15:55.039 --> 00:15:57.600
and he's like, oh, yeah, dude, we can get players.

327
00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:00.440
Man, national's full of players. This ship's great. We'll get players.

328
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:01.200
Don't worry about it.

329
00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:03.799
And I'm like, yeah, but and I'm telling Brittany, I go, yeah,

330
00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:05.679
but you know, there's this one kid I've been really

331
00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:07.960
wanting to play with. You know, he's just such a

332
00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:10.120
cool kid, and it's never worked out, and he's he's

333
00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:13.120
just really professional. And I said, I'd like to throw

334
00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:15.919
this at Devon. I never, in my wildest dream stopped.

335
00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:18.879
The busiest man in show business was going to listen

336
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:20.840
to it and go, shit, I want in, you know.

337
00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:24.799
But like Steve said, I I went about a week

338
00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:26.639
and I didn't hear back from Devon after I text

339
00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:30.120
him a couple of times, and and we're we're sitting

340
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:31.960
I think we were out shopping or something. We were

341
00:16:31.960 --> 00:16:33.879
sitting in a parking lot, and I said, you know,

342
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:34.799
I'm just gonna call Steve.

343
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:36.559
I don't want to think I'm coaching his kid. Here,

344
00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:38.759
you know, and all that. So I called him.

345
00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:41.080
I called him up and he's like, well, shit, send

346
00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:42.519
me the stuff. I'll listen to it and i'll get

347
00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:43.799
it over to him. And what are you looking for?

348
00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:46.120
And I go, guitar and bass. Okay, cool, I'll see

349
00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:46.600
what I can do.

350
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:47.840
And what was it?

351
00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:50.320
Two days later, day later, two days later.

352
00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:53.480
Something like that, he called up and and we both

353
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:55.679
were just like looking at each other when he says, well, yeah,

354
00:16:55.679 --> 00:16:58.000
I want to be your bass player, and we're like, okay,

355
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:02.759
I'm wondering how that's all going to work with, you know,

356
00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:04.680
the Metal Church and the autograph at the time, because

357
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:06.960
he was pretty busy and and you know, he has

358
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:11.400
his other project with his Elvis tribute. And I was like, yeah,

359
00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:13.559
this could be interesting, but you know, the universe has

360
00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:16.119
a way of shaking things up, so at least one

361
00:17:16.119 --> 00:17:16.599
of those.

362
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:18.039
Deals I don't got to deal with anymore.

363
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:22.599
But but we're looking, uh, we're looking to you know,

364
00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:23.119
get it out.

365
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:24.920
Yeah, you know, it's just fun having them both.

366
00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:26.240
I mean, like I said, Steve and I have been

367
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:28.640
you know, throwing jabs at each other on the internet

368
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:31.400
for ship probably at least last ten or twelve years,

369
00:17:31.400 --> 00:17:34.680
so it's it's now we're just doing now. We're just

370
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:36.960
doing it across the studio, you know, So it.

371
00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:37.519
Is what it is.

372
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:40.920
Speaking of jabs, the funny thing is, if you add

373
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:43.759
my age and my son's age together, we're still.

374
00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:45.039
Younger than Mike.

375
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:53.160
Wasn't wasn't the bad kiss short for kiss my ass?

376
00:17:56.599 --> 00:18:00.839
God? Yeah, this is.

377
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:05.200
Why you guys are a great band right here, Like

378
00:18:05.200 --> 00:18:08.480
like you're just having fun together and like each other

379
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:13.119
like bands out there that are just like pissed at each.

380
00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:16.400
Other all the time. I'm like, dude, you're a music.

381
00:18:16.160 --> 00:18:20.160
We're just getting it's early. We're gonna just get started early.

382
00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:26.279
Yeah, if you're not having fun in this industry, it's

383
00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:27.680
the wrong one to be in.

384
00:18:29.839 --> 00:18:32.119
Way too hard to not have fun with it, man.

385
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:33.200
No doubt.

386
00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:36.359
You know that was a really cool thing about Steve

387
00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:38.960
coming on board too, is it's just like the the

388
00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:42.240
fun factor went up because both of us are kind

389
00:18:42.240 --> 00:18:44.079
of the same guy when it comes to certain ship.

390
00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:49.720
So you know, I you know, we haven't turned on

391
00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:51.880
each other yet because you know, there's still too many

392
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:53.519
helpless victims out there.

393
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.720
But you mean one of you didn't go across stage

394
00:18:56.759 --> 00:18:59.279
and try to punch the other out during the performance.

395
00:19:02.519 --> 00:19:05.920
Not even so much. It's more like the backstage antics.

396
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:09.000
And when we're in hotels and his time, you know,

397
00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:11.319
and we're just working with each other, and you.

398
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:16.920
Know, yeah he doesn't he draws wieners on people's faces.

399
00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:24.200
I trace him. Yeah, yeah, still trying to figure out

400
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:24.680
what happened to.

401
00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:25.920
His toothbrush that one time.

402
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:32.720
There's that my teeth that brown.

403
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:37.119
See.

404
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:42.319
This proves that there's still fun things that go on backstage.

405
00:19:43.880 --> 00:19:48.519
Yes, yeah, Well, the world's a fucked up place, and

406
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:49.920
this is supposed to be an escape.

407
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:50.079
You know.

408
00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:52.599
Music for me now has always been an escape. If

409
00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:54.880
I go see the concert, I don't want them preaching

410
00:19:54.920 --> 00:19:57.200
politics to me. I don't want them to preach and

411
00:19:57.480 --> 00:19:59.880
you know, whatever their thoughts are or whatever the bun

412
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:02.799
going off in the world, I paid money to the

413
00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:06.920
show and had an escape for reality, no doubt.

414
00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:10.319
I'm with you, man, like I actually came up with

415
00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:12.559
an idea of how we could solve all the world

416
00:20:13.119 --> 00:20:17.319
world's problems, and that is to have one big music festival,

417
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:21.680
specifically rock metal punk, not the ones where people fight

418
00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:26.200
at and uh you know where the whole world has

419
00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:27.319
to attend.

420
00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:31.279
Because everybody's handed to joint.

421
00:20:31.839 --> 00:20:38.400
There you go, because that's where we were united.

422
00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:40.160
That's where there are no outsiders.

423
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:43.440
Funny story about that is like I had somebody working

424
00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:45.400
for me. She was also a co host on my show,

425
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.279
and she was a country girl. And one time, one weekend,

426
00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:51.519
I had to cover two festivals at once, which of

427
00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:54.799
course I couldn't do, and so I sent her to one.

428
00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:57.200
And she had never been to a rock show in

429
00:20:57.240 --> 00:21:01.319
her life. And even Danny Wimmer festival with I think

430
00:21:01.400 --> 00:21:04.759
Slipknot was headlining, or and Bring Me the Rising and.

431
00:21:04.759 --> 00:21:08.759
Stuff like that, and she I said to her, I'm like, listen.

432
00:21:09.519 --> 00:21:12.079
She was really scared about it, you know because like

433
00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:16.440
us metal heads, we scare people. Uh, And she go

434
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:19.880
I said to her, listen, you're gonna have so much

435
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:23.160
fun at this thing, Like it's not like your country shows.

436
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:25.319
You get to go to where the rednecks are getting

437
00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:27.960
drunk and beating the shit out of each other. Like

438
00:21:28.319 --> 00:21:31.160
you're gonna make new friends. You'll probably meet some dude.

439
00:21:31.440 --> 00:21:34.279
And and I just paid this like picture of how

440
00:21:34.319 --> 00:21:37.519
great it is. She comes back after the weekend and

441
00:21:37.599 --> 00:21:41.319
she goes, oh my god, you are so right, like

442
00:21:41.599 --> 00:21:44.880
I may, I had all these great new friends. I

443
00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:54.640
tea bagged some guy and he's now my boyfriend. She goes,

444
00:21:54.799 --> 00:21:57.200
I have this new favorite band. I don't think you

445
00:21:57.319 --> 00:22:00.319
know them, you're called bring me the Horizon. I can't

446
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:04.839
think I kind of know who they are, and like

447
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:07.680
there you go. That's how you convert them right there,

448
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:10.319
Just send them to a festival. And like that's why

449
00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:12.880
I think, like we would all get along if we

450
00:22:13.079 --> 00:22:16.160
just all went to a festival, had one huge mosh

451
00:22:16.279 --> 00:22:18.720
pit and just let all the bullshit out in the

452
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:19.359
wash pit.

453
00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:23.079
Man, that's the way it's big. Just leave it all

454
00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:24.880
in the d Fuck.

455
00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:28.000
The wars, fuck the bullshit, just leave it all in

456
00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:30.599
the pit and we can all have a joint and.

457
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.559
A beer afterwards. That's the way it goes. You go,

458
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:36.920
and we're not beauty of music.

459
00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:40.039
It's the best therapy there is too, Like anything that's

460
00:22:40.039 --> 00:22:42.960
ever been shit in my life, Man, all I have

461
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:43.559
to do is go.

462
00:22:43.519 --> 00:22:45.920
To is show and it changes things immediately.

463
00:22:46.359 --> 00:22:51.680
Yep, you know, so, yep, you got the EP coming

464
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:54.920
out later this year, and tell us about that, and

465
00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:57.319
you know, tell us about the other songs, like you

466
00:22:57.440 --> 00:22:59.920
have the new single, give it to me, but give

467
00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:02.960
give us an idea of what other songs on there

468
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:03.519
are going to be.

469
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:12.319
Like, oh my gosh, Okay, I'm so excited for this

470
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:15.599
next one because it's it's a bit of a continuation

471
00:23:15.920 --> 00:23:16.640
on our last.

472
00:23:16.680 --> 00:23:20.200
Their last album, Beautiful Scars, was a concept album taking

473
00:23:20.240 --> 00:23:24.119
on the Japanese art form of kinski or kinsigi on

474
00:23:24.279 --> 00:23:27.599
as a as a person and as you grow and

475
00:23:27.799 --> 00:23:30.960
gain experience and you get scars, sometimes we make them

476
00:23:31.000 --> 00:23:32.680
mean negative things, but what if we made them mean

477
00:23:32.680 --> 00:23:33.240
beautiful thing?

478
00:23:33.319 --> 00:23:35.240
So that was the store of Beautiful Scars is.

479
00:23:35.279 --> 00:23:37.920
Kind of coming into your own and owning everything that

480
00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:39.839
is that you are and that you have done and

481
00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:43.359
that you have been through. And then Villain is the

482
00:23:43.839 --> 00:23:46.880
working title of our next EP, which will be a

483
00:23:46.880 --> 00:23:49.200
little bit of a different release because we're not going

484
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:50.720
to release it all in one. We're going to give

485
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:53.480
it to you all slowly, so one song at a time.

486
00:23:54.359 --> 00:23:57.799
And I think the first one is that, Yeah, so

487
00:23:57.880 --> 00:24:01.119
the first one, that's.

488
00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:01.960
Right, you know, That's that's what.

489
00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:04.079
Everyone's telling us to do, So of course we're we're

490
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:06.160
gonna do it. But also it's a good thing because

491
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:09.359
it allows us to just keep ourselves on the radio.

492
00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:11.359
Here's another one, here's another. We have a whole bunch,

493
00:24:11.720 --> 00:24:14.279
and then there will be one special track and maybe

494
00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:18.759
a hidden one on the album for you to find

495
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:21.960
that won't be released until the album. So but Villain

496
00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:24.359
is a continuation of that, and this is where you've

497
00:24:24.400 --> 00:24:26.559
not only come into your own, but you accept who

498
00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:30.759
you are and everyone else's story to So like Villain,

499
00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:33.200
the title track is about exactly that. I'll be the

500
00:24:33.279 --> 00:24:36.240
villain of the story in your head. And the song

501
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:38.759
on the radio, give It to Me, is about owning it,

502
00:24:39.039 --> 00:24:41.799
like you know what I'm not. I'm not gonna take it,

503
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:43.960
You're gonna give it to me. Having that kind of

504
00:24:43.960 --> 00:24:46.519
confidence to walk into a room and know exactly who

505
00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:49.119
you are and how you stand and how you can

506
00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:53.200
and how you gain you know what? It was the

507
00:24:53.200 --> 00:24:57.000
word I want to think of, But it's not independence,

508
00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:59.240
but it's sort of like you gain. I guess confidence

509
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:02.480
is really just that word that's very sem powered. It

510
00:25:02.519 --> 00:25:07.200
has a lot of language that's testosterone driven language sung

511
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:10.799
by a female, so it's just a very strong feminine

512
00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:12.440
song and I love it. That's give it to Me.

513
00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:15.119
Oh my gosh. We have a lot on this album.

514
00:25:15.160 --> 00:25:16.279
We have a cover song that I.

515
00:25:16.279 --> 00:25:17.960
Don't want to give away, but I'm.

516
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:20.319
Super excited about it because it's the one that most

517
00:25:20.319 --> 00:25:23.400
people do very very slow, and we put a bit

518
00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:26.559
of a heavy drive to it. We brought out a

519
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:28.599
little bit of emotion in it, and we bring in

520
00:25:28.640 --> 00:25:30.799
some big guitars to it, and it's a very well

521
00:25:30.839 --> 00:25:34.160
known song. So I'm excited about that one. Oh my gosh,

522
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:36.799
I did I forget amusing. We have one on our

523
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:40.480
O that we were re resurrecting, so Give It to

524
00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:43.000
Me was a resurrection of one, and we're also going

525
00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:47.720
to resurrect another one, potentially from Volume one. So again

526
00:25:47.759 --> 00:25:49.200
I won't say which one. I'm gonna keep them all

527
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:54.559
a little secret, unless unless Mike says we can share.

528
00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:58.680
Oh yeah, yeah.

529
00:25:57.279 --> 00:26:01.400
Okay, yeah, okay, okay.

530
00:26:01.920 --> 00:26:05.160
I have a meeting with our radio guy next Thursday

531
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:11.279
just for the order of release. But yeah, everything's already

532
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:13.680
packaged and ready to go, so you're you're free to

533
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:14.680
move about the country.

534
00:26:15.319 --> 00:26:15.599
Nice.

535
00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:16.960
Great, Well, you.

536
00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:22.559
Will hear another redo of our song Babylon, and this

537
00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:25.279
one is I'm so excited about because I took it

538
00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:28.119
to a different level. It's just that total fevered dream.

539
00:26:28.200 --> 00:26:29.160
It's just amazing.

540
00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:32.920
And the cover song, which I'm very excited is a

541
00:26:32.920 --> 00:26:35.680
Beatles one because I've been I love the Beatles, that

542
00:26:35.720 --> 00:26:37.160
grew up on the Beatles and we're gonna do it

543
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:37.839
in my life.

544
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:39.640
Oh I love that song.

545
00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:45.440
Interesting going back to a Kiss, like I was also

546
00:26:45.519 --> 00:26:48.000
Beatles for that because right after I got that album,

547
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:51.680
some other kid I think I was like first second grade,

548
00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:54.440
I don't even remember, but they came into the oral

549
00:26:54.519 --> 00:26:58.240
report on the Beatles and I was like, oh, they're cool,

550
00:26:58.799 --> 00:27:03.440
and you know, my my walls as a little kid

551
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:08.640
in my room no wall, it showed my uh, I

552
00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:11.640
don't know. I guess schizophrenia or whatever because down the

553
00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:15.319
middle I had Kiss on one side, Beatles on the other.

554
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:17.640
As far as posters ball the wall.

555
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:21.359
Yeah, but they're so similar and people don't know when

556
00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:24.160
I say how similar they are, there like Beatles and

557
00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:27.400
Kiss come on, and then I tell them that different things,

558
00:27:27.400 --> 00:27:29.880
like you know, it was always Paul and John if

559
00:27:29.920 --> 00:27:32.519
either one of them wrote a song, and just like

560
00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:35.559
Gene and Paul and you and you know, whoever wrote

561
00:27:35.559 --> 00:27:39.160
the song sang the song, you know, and there was

562
00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:44.160
just the formula was pretty similar as far as that goes.

563
00:27:44.240 --> 00:27:48.680
And then even the fact of branching out in different directions.

564
00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:52.039
The Beatles were known for like going in so many

565
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:53.319
different areas, and I think.

566
00:27:53.319 --> 00:27:55.400
Kiss did a lot of that too throughout the years.

567
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:57.720
Oh yeah, absolutely.

568
00:27:58.480 --> 00:27:59.160
You know, so.

569
00:28:00.640 --> 00:28:03.359
I love that you're doing that cover, and I love

570
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:05.759
that you're doing it not slow.

571
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:07.000
Well.

572
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:09.559
It was very interesting because she was.

573
00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:15.680
Singing it one day and it was just kind of

574
00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:18.279
like I'm hearing this thing and I'm going, what is that?

575
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:21.279
And she's like in there, just belt in this song

576
00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:24.119
and I go, I'm just like that is amazing, and

577
00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:26.240
she's like, yeah, we should, I want to do this

578
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:29.119
and stuff, so, you know, and it was really interesting

579
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:32.359
that there's there's a little bit of a I don't

580
00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:33.599
want to give too much away out of it, but

581
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:34.880
you know, it is what it is.

582
00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:37.559
There was, you know, just like she.

583
00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:40.599
Said, we we went and scoured and listened to all

584
00:28:40.640 --> 00:28:44.200
the different covers out there, including Ossie and Slash, and

585
00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:47.920
nobody ever had the I don't know if it was

586
00:28:47.960 --> 00:28:51.880
the desire or the feel or the courage whatever, you know,

587
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:55.240
to take that song up a couple of notches, you

588
00:28:55.279 --> 00:28:56.839
know what I'm saying I'm not talking about going full

589
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:01.160
undisturbed with it now, right, you know, But it was

590
00:29:01.200 --> 00:29:03.039
just that there was there was a lot of power

591
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:05.359
in the emotion of that song. Can I put it

592
00:29:05.400 --> 00:29:10.519
that way, Brittany. It's very, very emotionally powerful, and I

593
00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:13.519
don't think the emotional power of that song ever really

594
00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:14.200
got tapped.

595
00:29:15.119 --> 00:29:16.519
And that's a good point.

596
00:29:17.000 --> 00:29:17.799
And we did that.

597
00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:21.119
And there's a lot of Brian Mayish style kind of

598
00:29:21.119 --> 00:29:24.759
guitar stuff coming into it. Very melodic in its sense,

599
00:29:24.799 --> 00:29:27.440
but there's a lot of hit to it. There's We'll

600
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:29.240
take you to the cliff and drop you off.

601
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:29.960
It's it's a.

602
00:29:31.400 --> 00:29:33.519
I mean, if you don't, if you don't when you're

603
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:36.240
done listening to the song, if you don't feel something,

604
00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:37.960
then you either weren't listening to.

605
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:38.759
It or you hate music.

606
00:29:39.319 --> 00:29:40.559
That's why I can't lay.

607
00:29:42.200 --> 00:29:47.160
And so there you go. But yeah, so Eric scited.

608
00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:48.400
I mean, it was just kind of one of those things.

609
00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:51.880
It's like, yeah, that works. You know the story of

610
00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:54.480
Give It to Me, the song that we're talking about today.

611
00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:58.480
You know that song actually got released in twenty twenty three,

612
00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:01.000
but never got released in the United States.

613
00:30:02.240 --> 00:30:03.920
Oh that's interesting. I didn't know that.

614
00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:04.920
Yeah, it was.

615
00:30:06.279 --> 00:30:07.640
It was just kind of a thing, you know.

616
00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:09.319
Brittany and I were like coming up with all these

617
00:30:09.359 --> 00:30:12.519
little marketing plans we had for our European tour with

618
00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:14.759
ing Bay, and one of the things that was like,

619
00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:16.319
you know, what we should be doing, and of course

620
00:30:16.359 --> 00:30:18.000
I was talking to Paul too, is man, if we

621
00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:19.880
had a song we could put out, then we could

622
00:30:19.960 --> 00:30:21.920
hire a PR person over there, we could get some

623
00:30:22.039 --> 00:30:24.559
radio spots, you know, we could build up a little

624
00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:26.799
gin up some you know, obviously Ing Bay's going to

625
00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:28.920
sell out, but it'd be nice to have some Limberlost

626
00:30:28.920 --> 00:30:32.039
shirts in the crowd, right, you know, and being our

627
00:30:32.039 --> 00:30:34.039
first trip to Europe, that's a tall order too. But

628
00:30:34.079 --> 00:30:37.039
it was like, you know, we had some internet traction

629
00:30:37.119 --> 00:30:39.119
over there, so we figured we try and get that.

630
00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:42.160
So it just so happened that Give It to Me

631
00:30:42.319 --> 00:30:45.599
was kind of in that almost done space, so we

632
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.880
kind of pushed it and produced it and got it

633
00:30:48.960 --> 00:30:52.000
out and then released it and whitelisted all the stuff

634
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:55.200
in the Western Hemisphere, but we only released and released

635
00:30:55.240 --> 00:30:56.880
it all over there. So yeah, if you were in

636
00:30:57.759 --> 00:31:02.079
the UK, you could spotify this that song In twenty

637
00:31:02.119 --> 00:31:03.599
twenty three to today.

638
00:31:03.599 --> 00:31:05.920
In fact, it still gets a lot of spins over there.

639
00:31:06.839 --> 00:31:09.160
But then we got back and it was kind of like,

640
00:31:09.559 --> 00:31:11.799
now we've got to release it here. But then we

641
00:31:11.799 --> 00:31:13.839
were kind of like, I don't know if this is

642
00:31:13.880 --> 00:31:15.440
the band we want to release it with.

643
00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:17.000
This is the I don't know if this is the

644
00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:21.799
direction we want to go hurt to go ahead.

645
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:25.400
Our songs were sounding different, right, and if I remember correctly,

646
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:26.039
we were like.

647
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:28.799
It doesn't sound like our new material now, Oh no,

648
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:30.079
you know, and so it be what.

649
00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:31.039
Do we do with this song?

650
00:31:31.480 --> 00:31:33.400
I remember that, And we had a couple of them.

651
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:34.880
There's a song we wrote with a friend of ours

652
00:31:34.920 --> 00:31:37.599
named Sammy called Rusia, and it's kind of sitting in

653
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:39.480
this nexus, like what do we do with this song?

654
00:31:39.799 --> 00:31:44.039
But you know, the.

655
00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:47.200
Then the sound changed dramatically, and so when this new

656
00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:49.519
EP started to take shape, it was kind of like,

657
00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:53.960
you know, if we gave this song a modern makeover,

658
00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:57.440
and when I say modern to this band, to this sound, right,

659
00:31:57.519 --> 00:32:00.519
this energy, this would be a good time to release

660
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:00.960
that song.

661
00:32:01.039 --> 00:32:03.920
So that's that's what you have. And it's just kind of.

662
00:32:03.839 --> 00:32:08.039
A reimagined version of what we what we wrote back

663
00:32:08.039 --> 00:32:12.079
in twenty twenty three, and I personally, even though I

664
00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:14.920
penned it, I personally like this version way better than

665
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:15.519
the old one.

666
00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:17.039
Nice.

667
00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:20.000
I think that's true of a love artists. Though.

668
00:32:20.039 --> 00:32:22.880
It's like I've heard Hatfield say all the time, like

669
00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:25.319
I don't know why they play the old version is

670
00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:28.119
seeking destroy at the San Jose Sharks Games. I can

671
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:30.640
sing a lot better now, you know. And it's like

672
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:33.160
I find that a lot of artists when they redoce

673
00:32:33.160 --> 00:32:36.200
stuff for their music later, they like it better. Why

674
00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:39.480
because you're a better musician at that point, Like when

675
00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:41.960
you're a teenager doing this stuff, you don't really know

676
00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:44.960
what you're doing yet, so like you want to grow

677
00:32:45.079 --> 00:32:47.759
into your craft and get better at your craft. And

678
00:32:47.799 --> 00:32:50.200
I think that's what happens, and that's probably what happened

679
00:32:50.240 --> 00:32:50.799
with this song.

680
00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:54.200
Yeah, well we've got we've got the players, you know.

681
00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:58.480
I mean, you know Steve Is, you know, renowned metal

682
00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:00.680
Hall of Fame bass player, his son as a Beat.

683
00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:03.119
In fact, we just released a short out today of

684
00:33:03.240 --> 00:33:06.799
him covering this, his solo in this and playing and

685
00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:08.279
it's just like, you know, you listen to it and

686
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:09.519
then watch him play it, and you're.

687
00:33:09.359 --> 00:33:11.920
Just kind of like, Wow, this kid's good, you know.

688
00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:14.279
And uh, and then of course we've got you know,

689
00:33:14.400 --> 00:33:18.119
Beaker the Wizard. You know that our keyboard player, Tony.

690
00:33:18.759 --> 00:33:23.680
We have lots of names for Tony. There's there's Tony,

691
00:33:23.759 --> 00:33:24.759
there's tea bag.

692
00:33:26.359 --> 00:33:34.720
Doctor. Yeah, I mean, and uh, well he's the coffee roaster.

693
00:33:34.960 --> 00:33:41.640
Was he won baldies now because he's roasting coffee on that.

694
00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:45.640
But anyway, uh, you know, but uh, you know, and

695
00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:49.119
then of course these two lovely opera singers that you know,

696
00:33:49.319 --> 00:33:51.839
just are you know, top of their craft, you know,

697
00:33:51.920 --> 00:33:53.000
I mean, what do you do?

698
00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:54.640
You know, what do you do with that?

699
00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:55.000
You know?

700
00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:58.759
And and uh and the material and this that has

701
00:33:58.799 --> 00:34:00.960
been we've been able to write and the way we've

702
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:03.440
been able to produce it. I I don't know, it

703
00:34:03.640 --> 00:34:06.200
just was kind of like one of those lightning in

704
00:34:06.240 --> 00:34:09.119
a bottle moment. But I think it's definitely where we belong.

705
00:34:09.239 --> 00:34:12.440
I think we are strong here and you're just seeing

706
00:34:12.519 --> 00:34:13.199
the beginning of it.

707
00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:14.840
You know.

708
00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:16.639
We've took a couple of these songs that are on

709
00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:20.159
the albums Sugar and Dyllaan. We actually took those out

710
00:34:20.199 --> 00:34:24.800
on the road last year. We had just finished writing those.

711
00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:27.960
I think about the time we were rehearsing to go

712
00:34:28.000 --> 00:34:29.639
out on tour and we were like, shit, let's put

713
00:34:29.639 --> 00:34:31.760
these in the mix, you know. And so we've been

714
00:34:31.760 --> 00:34:34.480
playing those for a little while now and those those

715
00:34:34.519 --> 00:34:37.480
haven't been released yet, but they went over really well

716
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:40.239
on tour. So yeah, we're really excited. You know, there's

717
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:43.960
it's it's you know, it's an interesting year. It's gonna

718
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:45.840
be uh, gonna be fun, like Steve says, you know,

719
00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:48.840
our biggest challenge right now is we kind of went

720
00:34:48.880 --> 00:34:52.599
through a couple situations where we don't quite have the

721
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:55.960
uh booking management that we thought we were going to have,

722
00:34:56.039 --> 00:34:58.239
so we're a little slow off to start getting out

723
00:34:58.239 --> 00:35:01.320
this year. We do have some shows coming up. Of course,

724
00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:03.639
there are things we've signed that we can't talk about

725
00:35:03.719 --> 00:35:06.639
yet because there's bigger names on those bills that haven't

726
00:35:06.639 --> 00:35:12.039
announced yet. But you know, so we do have stuff

727
00:35:12.079 --> 00:35:14.719
coming up, but you know, the fun stuff is going

728
00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:17.199
to be releasing these songs of course, and then we

729
00:35:17.280 --> 00:35:22.000
also I'm personally very excited about the summer when I

730
00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:23.719
think we're going to do it. When we hit Sturgis.

731
00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:29.599
We picked up a very very talented and very experienced

732
00:35:29.599 --> 00:35:30.519
front of house guy.

733
00:35:31.800 --> 00:35:32.880
That's important.

734
00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:36.480
And he's worked with I don't know Steve Cot speak

735
00:35:36.480 --> 00:35:37.880
to a better because we met him through Steve. But

736
00:35:38.079 --> 00:35:42.559
he's dropped names like the Commodore's, Lady Gaga, Bondie. He

737
00:35:42.679 --> 00:35:44.400
was just supposed to go out on tour with Ghosts,

738
00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:48.119
but got got COVID right before it, so they had to.

739
00:35:47.880 --> 00:35:48.800
Find somebody else.

740
00:35:49.880 --> 00:35:52.199
You know, he's he's worked the board at Whack and

741
00:35:52.239 --> 00:35:54.159
he's you know, I mean, he's he's.

742
00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:59.840
Really really good. He's actually a serial killer in our video.

743
00:36:02.679 --> 00:36:09.159
Uh actually moving on.

744
00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:13.119
Yeah, actually it's a delivery, I.

745
00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:15.639
Know, right exactly.

746
00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:20.000
Uh, but but so we're just gonna actually he is.

747
00:36:20.079 --> 00:36:22.199
Actually we did this on tour and we kind of

748
00:36:22.199 --> 00:36:24.880
tested the waters a little bit and it sounded pretty good.

749
00:36:24.880 --> 00:36:27.480
We just didn't have the right setup for it at

750
00:36:27.480 --> 00:36:29.760
this one venue. But uh, we're going to have the

751
00:36:29.840 --> 00:36:32.679
right setup in Sturgis. So we're he's going to record

752
00:36:32.679 --> 00:36:34.079
it and then we're gonna get together with him in

753
00:36:34.159 --> 00:36:38.039
Vegas probably for a few days and uh do all

754
00:36:38.079 --> 00:36:39.960
the mixedowns and stuff like that, and we're gonna put

755
00:36:40.000 --> 00:36:43.480
out a live record probably around the just before the holidays,

756
00:36:44.079 --> 00:36:45.800
and you don't know that too often from a band

757
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:47.280
like us so at our level.

758
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:48.800
So right, so I didn't do that.

759
00:36:49.199 --> 00:36:51.559
I love it, and you know what we're gonna.

760
00:36:51.639 --> 00:36:54.199
I'm just playing the buzz out there because I promote

761
00:36:54.239 --> 00:36:56.360
all their festivals. But we got a need to see

762
00:36:56.360 --> 00:36:59.199
you guys at like Ladder than Life and Aftershock later.

763
00:36:59.079 --> 00:36:59.440
In the year.

764
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:09.559
Please hello, right, line up the other one you actually

765
00:37:09.599 --> 00:37:12.960
your band like with just that song alone, which by

766
00:37:13.000 --> 00:37:15.719
the way, I was listening to, I'm like, man, that

767
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:18.639
song could seriously have commercial success.

768
00:37:18.920 --> 00:37:21.320
I don't say that often because I'm not into most

769
00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:24.360
songs that are gonna have commercial success, you know, but

770
00:37:24.519 --> 00:37:28.800
it definitely it has the components to it and I

771
00:37:28.840 --> 00:37:32.960
love the message too. Like to Steve's point, you know,

772
00:37:33.079 --> 00:37:37.519
fuck all other negative bullshit that people musicians are talking about.

773
00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:41.360
Let's talk about stuff like this because that's what we

774
00:37:41.440 --> 00:37:42.360
need right there.

775
00:37:42.840 --> 00:37:44.440
And yeah, and.

776
00:37:44.400 --> 00:37:49.840
I sor you know, I can also tell you and sorry,

777
00:37:49.920 --> 00:37:52.880
but I could also tell you that the other wimmer festival,

778
00:37:52.920 --> 00:37:55.960
Bourbon Beyond, which is not the metal hard rock one,

779
00:37:56.400 --> 00:37:58.880
you guys could probably play there too, because you're the

780
00:37:58.920 --> 00:38:02.880
type of band, based on what I heard, that can go.

781
00:38:03.360 --> 00:38:05.880
There's some bands that play Bourbon Beyond that can be

782
00:38:06.159 --> 00:38:10.239
in louder in life and Bourbon Beyond, you know, and

783
00:38:10.320 --> 00:38:12.079
I think that's what you guys are.

784
00:38:13.159 --> 00:38:14.039
Well appreciate that.

785
00:38:14.280 --> 00:38:17.800
Yeah, if you have, if you have any tricks for

786
00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:20.320
us to line up into those areas, I'm all theres

787
00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:22.559
because those are those are actually big goals of ours

788
00:38:22.920 --> 00:38:25.440
to get to find our way. That's one of the

789
00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:28.280
reasons we're pushing so hard on radio too. And you know,

790
00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:30.440
I think we're actually gonna this song might even be

791
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:32.880
going It's not gonna, Paul.

792
00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:35.159
It looks like we might even be getting up, you know.

793
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:38.519
And again nothing's guaranteed, but we might be getting pushed

794
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:41.679
into possibly a test drive on octane with this nice

795
00:38:42.880 --> 00:38:45.000
you know, at least an opportunity, you know, at least

796
00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:46.480
put on the table, you know.

797
00:38:47.559 --> 00:38:50.360
But you know, but then again, like you said, we

798
00:38:50.440 --> 00:38:54.280
can go you know, you know, we can go softer too.

799
00:38:54.360 --> 00:38:54.599
You know.

800
00:38:54.920 --> 00:38:57.840
It's it's how do I want to say it? I

801
00:38:57.880 --> 00:39:00.719
think I think we are built for those type of deals.

802
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:04.000
That's what this band has actually been constructed for, is

803
00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:07.599
the live show production.

804
00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:09.559
Energy.

805
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:13.480
When Brittany and I sat down and put beautiful scars together.

806
00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:16.559
One of the biggest conversations we had during all that

807
00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:19.199
was how it was almost looking at it from a

808
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:22.679
musical theater standpoint, is how does this How does the

809
00:39:22.719 --> 00:39:25.840
whole production? How does the whole stage show look per song?

810
00:39:25.920 --> 00:39:28.239
And so we really put a lot of thought into that.

811
00:39:28.280 --> 00:39:30.320
When we're writing and producing these songs too, it's like,

812
00:39:30.519 --> 00:39:31.760
what are we going to do here? What are we

813
00:39:31.760 --> 00:39:33.480
going to do there? Oh, we could do this with

814
00:39:33.559 --> 00:39:36.119
this part, you know, and and stuff. Because at the

815
00:39:36.199 --> 00:39:37.840
end of the day, with all the bs going on

816
00:39:37.880 --> 00:39:40.400
out there about music and all the computers and AI

817
00:39:40.519 --> 00:39:41.920
and all the stuff going on, at the end of

818
00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:45.239
the day, you still have to go out and deliver it,

819
00:39:46.199 --> 00:39:47.800
you know what I'm saying. You still have to be

820
00:39:48.760 --> 00:39:53.239
that connection to somebody, you know, Paul Stanley to little

821
00:39:53.239 --> 00:39:56.679
Devin Hunger. You still have to provide that, you know.

822
00:39:57.039 --> 00:39:59.960
And so that's what our Those are our major goals.

823
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:02.000
So when you say things like Louder and life and

824
00:40:02.039 --> 00:40:04.159
actor Shop, I'm kind of chubbing up over here. I

825
00:40:04.239 --> 00:40:05.000
can't really see.

826
00:40:05.119 --> 00:40:15.599
But it's small, you know, But well that's great.

827
00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:19.519
I'm just saying, you know, that's those are our bucket

828
00:40:19.559 --> 00:40:21.760
list items, right now at least on the space side thing.

829
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:26.159
And you know you you made a comment about the

830
00:40:26.159 --> 00:40:28.519
positive and stuff too. I got to share one little

831
00:40:28.559 --> 00:40:31.559
story with you from our last tour, sure, and we

832
00:40:31.599 --> 00:40:35.079
wrote a song back in Oh God, I think we

833
00:40:35.119 --> 00:40:38.480
recorded back in twenty nineteen. We had a very famous

834
00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:42.840
producer come to town and named Timothy Eaton, and he

835
00:40:42.840 --> 00:40:45.960
he took this song on and there's a whole story

836
00:40:46.000 --> 00:40:48.320
how that happened, but you know the the yeah, and

837
00:40:48.360 --> 00:40:51.159
he produced this song and we did a video and

838
00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:54.159
it's it's a very long song. It's not a radio song.

839
00:40:54.199 --> 00:40:56.199
It's like a six and a half minute song. But

840
00:40:56.519 --> 00:41:00.199
it's just so impactful. It's got so much message to it.

841
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:02.960
And we were out on tour and we just finished

842
00:41:03.000 --> 00:41:06.280
our show in Atlanta and we were, you know, we

843
00:41:06.280 --> 00:41:08.519
were driving O RV and the boys were in the hotel.

844
00:41:09.519 --> 00:41:11.760
But we hit this little out of like the day

845
00:41:11.800 --> 00:41:19.679
of hey, let's stay here our V park and mobile Alabama, Alabama.

846
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:22.239
As we do, I pull in with our fifty three

847
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:25.360
foot land yacht here and I you know, I go

848
00:41:25.440 --> 00:41:28.440
into the you know, check us in and of course

849
00:41:28.480 --> 00:41:30.440
I talk to the person, I tell them who we are.

850
00:41:30.480 --> 00:41:32.280
I give them a CD, because that's what we do.

851
00:41:32.360 --> 00:41:35.880
You know, we're spreading the word right, And she goes, oh,

852
00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:38.239
my daughter will love this. She listens to this kind

853
00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:40.400
of stuff. And she tells me a little story about

854
00:41:40.400 --> 00:41:44.000
her daughter and some trauma she'd went through and family

855
00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:47.039
stuff that had happened, and how she was really into

856
00:41:47.079 --> 00:41:49.960
music now and dah dah. So as I'm leaving this

857
00:41:50.039 --> 00:41:52.239
young gal, the young gal walks in. I didn't know

858
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:54.280
it was her daughter. And then we go and park

859
00:41:54.320 --> 00:41:57.119
and start setting up our stuff for the night, and

860
00:41:57.480 --> 00:42:02.079
about what twenty minutes later, they roll up. They roll

861
00:42:02.159 --> 00:42:04.280
up in their little golf cart and the daughter had

862
00:42:04.280 --> 00:42:08.119
walked in as I was walking out, saw the CD

863
00:42:08.280 --> 00:42:11.039
sitting on the counter and said where'd you get that?

864
00:42:11.880 --> 00:42:14.320
And she goes, uh, well there's that. The drummer was

865
00:42:14.320 --> 00:42:15.639
just thing there. They're staying here and you gave me

866
00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:18.440
their new CD, and she goes, shut up, I have

867
00:42:18.559 --> 00:42:22.800
them off my Spotify, and we're like, so they drove

868
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:24.960
down to meet us, and she's and I mean, I

869
00:42:25.119 --> 00:42:27.400
don't want to go into the story because it's it's

870
00:42:29.360 --> 00:42:31.679
well and it's not for public consumption, but you know,

871
00:42:31.800 --> 00:42:34.400
she went through some heavy trauma and it was our song.

872
00:42:34.280 --> 00:42:35.599
Good Fight that got her through it.

873
00:42:36.119 --> 00:42:36.480
Wow.

874
00:42:36.719 --> 00:42:39.519
And we're a little band out of Seattle and she's

875
00:42:39.639 --> 00:42:41.400
a little girl in Mobile, Alabama.

876
00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:44.039
I love that.

877
00:42:44.039 --> 00:42:47.719
That's what music's all about, right there? Yeah, oh yeah,

878
00:42:48.480 --> 00:42:51.719
that's that that. It's moments like that for people like you, guys,

879
00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:53.519
that that's what you do it for. That's when you

880
00:42:53.519 --> 00:42:56.280
get that moment here, even if you're in the moment

881
00:42:56.280 --> 00:42:58.639
of like, oh, it's so sick of this business, why

882
00:42:58.639 --> 00:43:01.239
am I doing this? And then something like that happened

883
00:43:01.679 --> 00:43:04.320
and you're like, that's why right then?

884
00:43:04.360 --> 00:43:07.039
Yea, every affirms it. Every you know, it brings you

885
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:09.119
back to why, you know. I think that's the whole

886
00:43:09.159 --> 00:43:11.159
thing is that if you get up in the morning

887
00:43:11.199 --> 00:43:13.159
and you've lost your why, well then what the hell

888
00:43:13.159 --> 00:43:13.599
are you doing?

889
00:43:14.199 --> 00:43:15.559
No doubt, one hundred percent.

890
00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:19.519
But I think we're all we're all, you know, rockers,

891
00:43:19.559 --> 00:43:23.480
so we're naturally immature. So I know, my grandmother says,

892
00:43:23.480 --> 00:43:25.239
you're only you're only young ones, but you could be

893
00:43:25.280 --> 00:43:28.239
immature forever, you know. So I think that, you know,

894
00:43:28.800 --> 00:43:31.559
we have that natural immaturity that comes along with it.

895
00:43:31.960 --> 00:43:33.480
Hey, what's great about that?

896
00:43:33.519 --> 00:43:36.719
As my grandkids like me a lot better than their parents,

897
00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:38.679
because I'm a lot cooler and a lot more fun.

898
00:43:41.360 --> 00:43:46.440
Yeah that's right, I said, say, don't take them into

899
00:43:46.480 --> 00:43:50.760
posh mosh. But I'm like, okay, whatever I'm taking I was.

900
00:43:50.760 --> 00:43:53.760
Around this way. I'm old enough that I saw the

901
00:43:53.840 --> 00:43:58.280
original I waited every Friday night to see the original

902
00:43:58.320 --> 00:43:59.280
Batman series.

903
00:44:00.079 --> 00:44:02.280
Yeah, me too, man, me too, all right?

904
00:44:02.639 --> 00:44:04.039
And I hate old people.

905
00:44:07.519 --> 00:44:07.800
I don't.

906
00:44:07.920 --> 00:44:09.840
I mean, I mean, I'm I'm an old. I'm just

907
00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:11.679
saying I just don't want to be. I mean, I

908
00:44:11.719 --> 00:44:12.480
don't want to be that.

909
00:44:12.599 --> 00:44:12.760
You know.

910
00:44:13.039 --> 00:44:17.559
It's so true though, they've lost their limber.

911
00:44:17.599 --> 00:44:19.079
I don't know that.

912
00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:23.119
Yeah, of course, that's what it is. It's so true though.

913
00:44:23.159 --> 00:44:25.440
Like I have this brother that's six years older than me,

914
00:44:25.719 --> 00:44:28.159
and I swear he's like thirty years older than me.

915
00:44:28.639 --> 00:44:28.960
Right.

916
00:44:29.239 --> 00:44:31.519
He was just telling me the other day, was complain

917
00:44:31.599 --> 00:44:36.519
because some kids were playing their music too loud, and

918
00:44:36.559 --> 00:44:38.760
I'm like, well, that.

919
00:44:38.679 --> 00:44:41.079
Would have been fun. What the fuck are you complaining about?

920
00:44:42.559 --> 00:44:42.599
You?

921
00:44:42.719 --> 00:44:46.000
I would have been over the partying with him, right exactly,

922
00:44:46.079 --> 00:44:46.280
you know.

923
00:44:47.039 --> 00:44:50.119
And it's it is. I think that's the is the.

924
00:44:50.119 --> 00:44:53.719
True thing about rockers is that, you know, we never

925
00:44:53.760 --> 00:44:56.599
get to that point where it's like, like my parent

926
00:44:56.639 --> 00:44:59.800
would have been, well, you and your mot like crew

927
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:03.760
turned that ship off satanic music.

928
00:45:04.519 --> 00:45:06.360
Oh yeah, it's like.

929
00:45:11.280 --> 00:45:11.519
Shit.

930
00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:14.679
Oh man, uh it was I.

931
00:45:15.119 --> 00:45:18.440
By the way, speaking of that, I figured out how

932
00:45:18.440 --> 00:45:20.760
to get rid of Jehovah's witnesses when they come to

933
00:45:20.800 --> 00:45:21.199
your door.

934
00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:25.280
That's a good one too.

935
00:45:25.360 --> 00:45:26.440
I'll have to try that.

936
00:45:27.719 --> 00:45:30.280
But the pizza, I think it was like I was

937
00:45:30.360 --> 00:45:34.679
like sixteen years old and I had Slayer playing through

938
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:38.039
my guitar amplifier when they knocked on the door, and

939
00:45:38.119 --> 00:45:42.599
I had Ozzy Diary of a Madman shirt on, and

940
00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:45.719
they started their thing and I just looked at him

941
00:45:45.800 --> 00:45:49.199
very dead seriously. I'm like, yeah, I'm a devil worshiper.

942
00:45:49.239 --> 00:45:51.719
Can't you tell they freaking ran?

943
00:45:51.920 --> 00:45:52.119
Man?

944
00:45:52.239 --> 00:45:54.480
They believed me, They freaking ran.

945
00:45:57.039 --> 00:45:57.239
Yeah.

946
00:45:58.159 --> 00:46:00.440
I had a similar story like that because I used

947
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:02.840
to have a pet snake who sadly passed away. But

948
00:46:02.920 --> 00:46:04.960
one time I answered the door with a pet snake

949
00:46:04.960 --> 00:46:08.360
around my neck. To this was witnesses who talked for

950
00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:15.440
a minute until she looked up and went, so, if

951
00:46:15.480 --> 00:46:17.159
you haven't, you know, just whip out the snake.

952
00:46:17.280 --> 00:46:32.400
I think in any way, no, no, no, I think

953
00:46:32.440 --> 00:46:35.800
that in general, that's probably the message we all shared.

954
00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:37.559
There was kind of wibout the Snake.

955
00:46:40.280 --> 00:46:42.119
I need you to send me that sound clip.

956
00:46:46.400 --> 00:46:53.159
I think I am going to go into serview distribute

957
00:46:53.199 --> 00:46:54.679
that part as a real.

958
00:47:01.239 --> 00:47:06.599
Play that repeat, play on like without the sy.

959
00:47:08.599 --> 00:47:12.880
Oh boy, the next ep that we'll.

960
00:47:12.719 --> 00:47:19.719
Have, don't Jehovah's Witness whip out the Snake.

961
00:47:20.400 --> 00:47:24.880
That's it's funny. We actually have a song on this

962
00:47:25.000 --> 00:47:27.159
mo sings.

963
00:47:27.599 --> 00:47:31.440

merchandise stores because we have just about everything you could

988
00:48:58.840 --> 00:49:02.960
think of, including Steve's refreshing limber lube.

989
00:49:05.039 --> 00:49:05.920
Perfect.

990
00:49:06.519 --> 00:49:08.840
Uh, but we do have a lot.

991
00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:10.239
We have a lot of stuff that we have.

992

We have dog.

993
00:49:11.159 --> 00:49:17.280
Collars, luggage and just anything you'd want on a Saturday night.

994

I guess tennis shoes. You can get limber lost tennis shoes.

995
00:49:20.199 --> 00:49:20.760
It's really cool.

996
00:49:20.920 --> 00:49:21.880
You can tis.

997
00:49:22.519 --> 00:49:22.960
Here's all.

998
00:49:24.320 --> 00:49:25.360
Here's what you need to do.

999
00:49:25.679 --> 00:49:31.519
Alien alien what alien g string? But no, I don't

1000
00:49:31.559 --> 00:49:34.679
know do we have any.

1001
00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:38.440
Here's here's what you gotta do. I have a pair

1002
00:49:38.480 --> 00:49:51.000

00:49:52.519 --> 00:49:56.800
You know, you can buy my drumsticks.

1005
00:49:57.199 --> 00:49:57.519
Nice.

1006
00:49:57.719 --> 00:49:59.679
Yeah, we even have instruments.

1007
00:49:59.679 --> 00:50:00.800
Actually, we've got a lot.

1008
00:50:00.920 --> 00:50:02.519
We have like all kinds of fun and death.

1009
00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:03.719
It's definitely worth a look.

1010
00:50:03.760 --> 00:50:06.239
But you can find us in all the social media

1011
00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:09.360
platforms where you know, Limberless music dot com. You could

1012
00:50:09.400 --> 00:50:13.760
just google Limberlost, Limberlost Music Shopify. We're on that, like

1013
00:50:13.920 --> 00:50:16.880
just all the things there. There isn't a place you

1014
00:50:16.920 --> 00:50:17.920
won't find us.

1015
00:50:18.320 --> 00:50:20.880
How about how about this? Do you have a limber

1016
00:50:22.360 --> 00:50:23.159
a limber cano?

1017
00:50:23.760 --> 00:50:30.760
Yes, oh my gosh, you.

1018
00:50:30.800 --> 00:50:35.000
Know it's from a band that I interviewed. I think Bloodstock.

1019
00:50:36.000 --> 00:50:39.599
I can't remember which band, and it was a death

1020
00:50:39.639 --> 00:50:42.880
metal or metalcore band, so I can't read what the

1021
00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:46.880
band is either, right, can do?

1022
00:50:47.280 --> 00:50:48.239
We do have an.

1023
00:50:48.119 --> 00:50:51.000
Air freshener that can go in your car, though, and

1024
00:50:51.079 --> 00:50:53.719
it's our logo and it smells like coconut.

1025
00:50:54.519 --> 00:50:55.360
That's so funny.

1026
00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:57.599
You should say that because I like that, because I

1027
00:50:57.639 --> 00:50:59.960
was driving down the road just literally two days ago,

1028
00:51:00.360 --> 00:51:04.119
and I saw somebody with those old school look like

1029
00:51:04.320 --> 00:51:07.760
pine tree uh air freshers, and I'm like, man, why

1030
00:51:07.800 --> 00:51:11.960
are people still buying generic ones? Like like you're get

1031
00:51:12.039 --> 00:51:15.159
hanging that in your window like that looks stupid.

1032
00:51:15.239 --> 00:51:23.320
Get something cool, you know, so right, that would be

1033
00:51:23.320 --> 00:51:24.159
a good one.

1034
00:51:24.800 --> 00:51:27.199
Yes, we've got that on there. We got all kinds

1035
00:51:27.199 --> 00:51:30.079
of stuff, but there is there is Steve's limberloob, so

1036
00:51:30.159 --> 00:51:32.400
that's it. It really smells nice.

1037
00:51:32.440 --> 00:51:40.000
It's got very nice.

1038
00:51:36.480 --> 00:51:40.039
Yeah, but you all seriousness though. We also have all

1039
00:51:40.079 --> 00:51:44.519
of our music downloadable and for straight there on our website.

1040
00:51:44.599 --> 00:51:47.639
So uh we as much as we love all the

1041
00:51:47.679 --> 00:51:50.320
distribution platforms and you can get our music everywhere, but

1042
00:51:51.159 --> 00:51:53.079
if you buy it from us directly, we don't have

1043
00:51:53.119 --> 00:51:55.920
to share, so it really helps us as independence. If

1044
00:51:55.920 --> 00:51:59.760
you're gonna download our music, download our singles, uh, download

1045
00:51:59.800 --> 00:52:02.400
you know albums. You know, we have all the you know,

1046
00:52:02.440 --> 00:52:05.360
all the digital downloads available. We also have some physical

1047
00:52:05.400 --> 00:52:08.760
copies depending on how new it is, but we all

1048
00:52:08.800 --> 00:52:11.199
of that is on there also, so we're kind of

1049
00:52:11.199 --> 00:52:14.639
a self enclosed one stop shop. We also have a

1050
00:52:14.679 --> 00:52:17.599
VIP section on our website if somebody wants to support

1051
00:52:17.679 --> 00:52:20.119
us that way, it's what thirty five bucks a year

1052
00:52:20.159 --> 00:52:21.639
or something like that, and then you get all the

1053
00:52:22.119 --> 00:52:24.480
you know, you get all the outtakes, all the cut ups,

1054
00:52:24.519 --> 00:52:27.000
all the you know who got the wedgie on tour?

1055
00:52:27.079 --> 00:52:30.639
You know, all that kind of stuff. You know, that's

1056
00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:33.159
all in that little little corner there. So we call

1057
00:52:33.199 --> 00:52:35.280
that our VFP section. Plus you get a chance to

1058
00:52:35.320 --> 00:52:36.920
get things a little bit before they come.

1059
00:52:36.800 --> 00:52:41.320
Out, so all on our website. So we're we're becoming

1060
00:52:41.320 --> 00:52:42.239
our own little country.

1061
00:52:42.679 --> 00:52:45.039
Do you have a eight tracks?

1062
00:52:45.039 --> 00:52:45.679
Eight tracks?

1063
00:52:46.119 --> 00:52:49.079
I have eight tracks, but I don't have any limber

1064
00:52:49.119 --> 00:52:51.159
laws ap how do we make Yeah?

1065
00:52:53.719 --> 00:52:55.719
Yeah, it's hard enough to make.

1066
00:52:56.119 --> 00:52:57.679
Records, which we do have.

1067
00:52:57.880 --> 00:52:59.159
We do have a way to buy.

1068
00:52:58.960 --> 00:53:02.239
A record and cassettes now again too. Yeah.

1069
00:53:02.440 --> 00:53:05.440
So I came back the eight track like I missed

1070
00:53:05.440 --> 00:53:07.960
my Blizzard of Oz eight track where I had to

1071
00:53:08.000 --> 00:53:11.880
put the matchbook underneath and it shifted from track two

1072
00:53:12.239 --> 00:53:14.880
track three in the middle of mister Crowley and.

1073
00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:19.199
It fades out when you go the speed.

1074
00:53:18.920 --> 00:53:20.239
Bumps would have changed automatic.

1075
00:53:20.440 --> 00:53:23.679
Yeah, I wore I wore a two neck my sharonas

1076
00:53:24.280 --> 00:53:26.639
you know, and and my of course you know the

1077
00:53:26.639 --> 00:53:28.559
problem with eight tracks. The reason I had so many

1078
00:53:28.639 --> 00:53:30.159
is I was one of those dumbasses that did the

1079
00:53:30.199 --> 00:53:30.960
Columbia House.

1080
00:53:31.280 --> 00:53:32.280
You know I did too.

1081
00:53:32.880 --> 00:53:36.639
I let oh them probably like ten million dollars, like

1082
00:53:36.639 --> 00:53:38.679
because it's interesting.

1083
00:53:38.920 --> 00:53:41.719
The only mark on my credit history is those guys.

1084
00:53:43.559 --> 00:53:45.599
Here's a here's a big intel about me.

1085
00:53:45.840 --> 00:53:49.320
I found out like later in life my father owned

1086
00:53:49.360 --> 00:53:53.840
one of those companies like Columbia House, like before.

1087
00:53:53.519 --> 00:53:56.679
I was born, Like damn, I could have had a

1088
00:53:56.760 --> 00:53:58.800
lot of good ship. Man.

1089
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:01.960
Yeah, oh man.

1090
00:54:02.119 --> 00:54:04.559
I think when I was a teenager, like it was great.

1091
00:54:04.599 --> 00:54:07.000
I didn't have money, so I just gave my penny

1092
00:54:07.039 --> 00:54:11.199
and like once a week and I got all my music.

1093
00:54:12.440 --> 00:54:22.639
Yeah, oh man, so say that again, say it again.

1094
00:54:23.360 --> 00:54:24.360
I said what it was, like.

1095
00:54:26.679 --> 00:54:28.639
That's for a dollar or for a penny, and then

1096
00:54:28.800 --> 00:54:30.199
you had to buy like two or three over the

1097
00:54:30.280 --> 00:54:31.559
next twelve months, right.

1098
00:54:31.880 --> 00:54:34.159
Yeah, and they would keep sending them to you. They

1099
00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:36.559
would keep sending it to you. I just kept them

1100
00:54:36.599 --> 00:54:45.800
like I was underage, Like sure, bill me. So anything

1101
00:54:45.880 --> 00:54:49.519
else we haven't we touched on so much. This actually

1102
00:54:49.559 --> 00:54:53.280
borders on like I think my third longest interview ever

1103
00:54:53.400 --> 00:54:55.559
have like over three thousand of them.

1104
00:54:56.159 --> 00:55:00.639
Yeah, that said something about you guys though, serious because

1105
00:55:01.320 --> 00:55:05.119
like it's just good. There was no dead air.

1106
00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:08.400
There's I'm not bored like there's some bands like sometimes

1107
00:55:08.440 --> 00:55:11.679
you're bored hate to say it, but there's like my

1108
00:55:11.800 --> 00:55:15.320
worst ever. The dude is one of the best guitarist

1109
00:55:15.360 --> 00:55:18.840
ever wears makeup and it starts with D But I

1110
00:55:18.880 --> 00:55:21.320
won't say who it is, but everybody knows who it is,

1111
00:55:21.400 --> 00:55:26.679
even without me saying. And like, you know, it's like

1112
00:55:26.800 --> 00:55:29.480
some you're like just like artists. Some I'm like, oh,

1113
00:55:29.519 --> 00:55:31.920
I can't wait till his interviews over. And this one

1114
00:55:32.039 --> 00:55:33.480
was just a lot of fun. And that's the way

1115
00:55:33.480 --> 00:55:36.519
it should be. Interviews should be fun, you know. I

1116
00:55:36.599 --> 00:55:39.280
always say that to the other press people at the festival,

1117
00:55:39.360 --> 00:55:42.559
especially the ones I see that like they're boring me

1118
00:55:42.679 --> 00:55:44.880
and I feel like I'm sitting there doing another interview

1119
00:55:44.920 --> 00:55:47.480
and I want to slip my throat hearing nerves behind me.

1120
00:55:50.920 --> 00:55:52.519
And U, yeah, walked up.

1121
00:55:52.639 --> 00:55:54.480
Well, first of all, the ones I have scripts, I

1122
00:55:54.599 --> 00:55:56.360
just take them. I'm like, get rid of this shit.

1123
00:55:56.480 --> 00:55:59.519
No metal head wants to interview with you with your script.

1124
00:56:00.599 --> 00:56:05.519
I'm like, just chill out and just they're normal people.

1125
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:08.960
Just have a conversation. They'll tell you everything that you

1126
00:56:09.039 --> 00:56:11.840
need for the interview. You don't like it takes a

1127
00:56:11.920 --> 00:56:14.000
life of its own that way, that's where you get

1128
00:56:14.039 --> 00:56:17.599
the stories. You know, not with how do you get

1129
00:56:17.639 --> 00:56:20.159
your band name? Even though we started out somehow there

1130
00:56:21.159 --> 00:56:22.039
fucking happens.

1131
00:56:24.199 --> 00:56:28.920
Yeah, but it was unscripted.

1132
00:56:31.800 --> 00:56:34.559
You know, we were getting I always give a mulligan, bean.

1133
00:56:38.639 --> 00:56:42.599
I do have I do have two great stories I have

1134
00:56:42.719 --> 00:56:44.400
to do with that.

1135
00:56:44.400 --> 00:56:45.280
That'll tell quickly.

1136
00:56:45.679 --> 00:56:47.679
One of them, Like one of my best friends is

1137
00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:49.960
Damn Spits, and he always used to say to me,

1138
00:56:50.760 --> 00:56:52.719
you know, I wish they would just ask us on

1139
00:56:52.960 --> 00:56:55.880
when we were on tour what skin conditioner we use,

1140
00:56:55.960 --> 00:56:59.320
because I'm so sick of every fucking other question they're

1141
00:56:59.360 --> 00:57:04.559
asking us million times, you know. And then right and

1142
00:57:04.599 --> 00:57:07.760
then uh so I was interviewing August Burns Red and

1143
00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:10.480
I like, I used to say all the time, I'm

1144
00:57:10.480 --> 00:57:13.039
not gonna ask you dumb questions like how'd you get

1145
00:57:13.039 --> 00:57:13.760
your band name?

1146
00:57:13.840 --> 00:57:14.800
Or if it's in Wikipedia.

1147
00:57:14.840 --> 00:57:17.800
He goes, well, you're lucky then, because we fuck with

1148
00:57:17.960 --> 00:57:21.280
everybody to ask us that question. See that girl next

1149
00:57:21.280 --> 00:57:24.320
to you, she goes, and she was a friend of mine,

1150
00:57:24.360 --> 00:57:26.719
and he goes, she asked us the question. We do

1151
00:57:26.800 --> 00:57:29.199
it a total straight face, and we make up a

1152
00:57:29.199 --> 00:57:32.519
different story every time. But for her, we were like, yeah,

1153
00:57:32.679 --> 00:57:35.199
me and my sister we were teenagers.

1154
00:57:35.320 --> 00:57:37.199
We got this dog. It was her dog.

1155
00:57:37.360 --> 00:57:40.719
She named it August. We were partying out in the street.

1156
00:57:41.199 --> 00:57:43.039
We thought we were all high and thought it would

1157
00:57:43.079 --> 00:57:45.239
be funny to light August on fire and watch it

1158
00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:46.239
run down the street.

1159
00:57:46.679 --> 00:57:46.920
Ergo.

1160
00:57:47.119 --> 00:57:55.639
August was red and the look of horror on her face,

1161
00:57:55.679 --> 00:57:57.480
and he could not break character.

1162
00:58:00.400 --> 00:58:05.199
God, there you go.

1163
00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:09.079
See, there's so much you could do with that.

1164
00:58:09.400 --> 00:58:10.239
You should even.

1165
00:58:10.199 --> 00:58:14.559
Bring bring Steve's lube to the interviews to do to

1166
00:58:14.719 --> 00:58:15.719
fuck women.

1167
00:58:16.559 --> 00:58:19.320
You know what we would, except somebody bought it at

1168
00:58:19.320 --> 00:58:20.800
one of our shows.

1169
00:58:20.400 --> 00:58:21.440
So we did.

1170
00:58:22.159 --> 00:58:22.360
Yes.

1171
00:58:24.440 --> 00:58:28.519
Well, see now at the story from them of how

1172
00:58:28.559 --> 00:58:30.840
they use it, what happened, and turn that into a

1173
00:58:30.960 --> 00:58:32.880
song that was.

1174
00:58:32.880 --> 00:58:34.880
Gone in a box of cleenex.

1175
00:58:36.840 --> 00:58:42.840
Oh god, it's been a pleasure. Your music is badass.

1176
00:58:42.880 --> 00:58:46.280
Everybody better listen to it and buy merch or they

1177
00:58:46.360 --> 00:58:52.280
can just fuck off. And but seriously, you guys are badass,

1178
00:58:52.320 --> 00:58:55.360
