Florida's Industrial / Cyber Metal Band CROSSBREED played InkCarceration 2024 and has a new single "The Killer Inside".

"The Killer Inside" is the prequel to CROSSBREED's N.F.G. that takes you into the darkness, providing a Never-Before-Seen look as to how your favorite Cyber Metal Band was created.

Not to mention this song should be the lead track for every horror, sci-fi, slasher film from now until the end of time. Also goes well with all existing movies with the volume down, try it. For real, try it!

I love Ink so much. But they just played Ink yesterday. Okay,

15
00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:21.640
I mean they are badasses, They're around forever, and now

16
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.280
we even have new music. Like I don't even know

17
00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:28.079
how bands didn't make new music after like forty years,

18
00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:31.480
thirty years. So let's welcome to the show. Crossbreed.

19
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:33.480
How are you fucking amazing?

20
00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:33.799

24
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:46.480
in person to Ink. I usually do, but tell me

25
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:49.719
how it was when you were performing at the Shawshank

26
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:50.680
Prison man.

27
00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:51.519
Dude.

28
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.000
All right, so first off, let me introduce myself. I'm

29
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:57.359
James and Crossbrey. That's Manicotti, so he does, but he

30
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.519
plays bass and guitar, both him and Derek played both.

31
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:04.040
So but this was our first time ever playing Incarceration.

32
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:07.239
So like we literally we played rock fast and went

33
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:09.560
straight you know, nighttime, I went straight to inc So

34
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:11.840
it's like you get there, you're going straight to the stage,

35
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:14.479
and like, as we're like getting ready and we're set up,

36
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:16.639
you know, I was looking at the stage manager and

37
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:18.680
I was like, dude, this place about to get insane, man,

38
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:21.199
So let's take a moment and just look at where

39
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.199
the fuck we are, like dude, and we just stood

40
00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:26.120
there staring at the whole landscape of it.

41
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:29.280
It's like, dude, look at how fucking cool this is. Man.

42
00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:31.360
We all play concerts in all these different places.

43
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:36.000
We're playing at a fucking prison, like the shit, Like,

44
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:38.319
how fucking badass is at That's like the most metal

45
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:42.000
fucking place you could ever do. So danil Wimmer presents

46
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.800
Daniel Jensen, like, man, these guys are fucking badasses making

47
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:46.680
this shit happen there.

48
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:48.240
It's the coolest event ever.

49
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:51.800
Well yeah, funny story is like Okay, so I go

50
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:53.919
on tour and I do all these festivals and my

51
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:57.960
youngest daughter, Shully say, Dad, so are you excited about

52
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.439
this festival coming up? And I'm like, you know, I

53
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:02.360
love doing it. I don't know if it'xcited. It's the

54
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:05.639
word when you're doing every single weekend, you know. But

55
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:09.400
then when I did Ink for the first time, I

56
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:12.120
was standing out on the prison yard what would have

57
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:15.759
been the prison yard, and I called my door. I'm like, yeah,

58
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:19.240
now I'm excited. I'm sitting on the prison yard of Shawshan.

59
00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:20.840
Yeah.

60
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:23.280
Like, you know, we played early, so like by the

61
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:25.840
time we were done, you know, we got to wrap

62
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:27.879
up and kind of really soak in the event and

63
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:30.639
really see what it's about, like as a fan, because

64
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:32.919
like that was our last show until you know, it's

65
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.319
our you know, a while from now. So like the

66
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:37.479
second we were done, we literally got to walk around

67
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:39.879
and see you know, like fucking mushroom Head, machine Head.

68
00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:41.759
It was like awesome as fuck to even be able

69
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:44.280
to go see all these bands in one place, but

70
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:46.479
to see how the setup it's like you have three

71
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.080
major stages set up with three different locations, none of

72
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:52.879
them interfere with each other, right, and it's.

73
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:56.240
Just cool, man. The every bit of it.

74
00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:59.280
Man, the experience from as an artist, it's just like

75
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.919
one of the best experiences you could have. The crowd

76
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:06.319
is fucking dope as fuck. Man, it's just fun. Man out.

77
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:08.000
You know, before I get away from now, I just

78
00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:10.400
want to give a shout my voice called s Black

79
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:11.159
James love you.

80
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:18.199
And you know, you know what you probably don't even

81
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:23.040
know because you were playing, is I know from covering

82
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:27.120
in the past that they're the new prison that's next door.

83
00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:29.639
People are out in the yard, so you were like

84
00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:33.399
pulling like a Johnny Cash move playing for the inmates

85
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:34.040
next door.

86
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:36.920
Uh, it was like some Star Wars stuff.

87
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:40.839
So yeah, I mean, what's really cool. And you probably

88
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:44.360
don't even realize it because you were playing at the festival,

89
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:48.680
but I've been there and seen the inmates at the

90
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:52.120
prison next store outside, So you were pulling like a

91
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:56.399
Johnny Cash move playing to the inmates at the other

92
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:57.759
prison right next door.

93
00:04:58.040 --> 00:04:59.959
That's awesome, dude. The old day.

94
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.519
It's like when we first started Tampa, we had an

95
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:06.800
event called Livestock, and right across the street from it

96
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:10.720
was a prison. So like you're literally like rocking out

97
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:13.120
right across the street from a prison and it's like

98
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.360
kind of cool and kind of funny and kind of

99
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:18.160
like you're torturing those people because it's like, you know,

100
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:19.959
I mean, it was your decisions while you got there.

101
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:23.040
But at the same time, it's like it's kind of cool.

102
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:25.439
Maybe that was practice for incarcerations like you.

103
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:31.759
Right well down here in South Florida. The Amphitheater is

104
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:34.759
right next to the prison too, and I've literally been

105
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:39.319
at shows where I've seen people a walling from the prison.

106
00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:42.079
Yeah, dude, and that's great.

107
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:44.360
You know, that's scary Florida, man, because like you know,

108
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:47.839
you can go escape, you can go in a swamp

109
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:48.800
and they're coming for you.

110
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:49.120
Man.

111
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:51.839
They'll send the dogs in there, or they'll wait for

112
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:54.279
you and see if an alligator gets you. So you

113
00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:57.639
know how it is here, man, we're Florida man strong.

114
00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:03.279
That's right, that's right. I tell women that aren't from here,

115
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:07.759
like I met this woman at grass Pop recently and

116
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:10.680
she lives in Germany. I'm like, yeah, come visit me

117
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:13.160
in Florida and I'll I'll take you out and feed

118
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:14.399
you to the gators.

119
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.519
I have a galligator in my backyard always staring at

120
00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:22.639
her Chihuahua. It's like you, oh boy, like you better

121
00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:24.279
stay away from my fucking dog.

122
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:29.800
No doubt, no doubt. My son used to go and

123
00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:32.519
go wrestle the alligator's when he was in high school.

124
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:37.519
But that's the Florida shit right there, man, right, But like, uh,

125
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:39.839
one time, my wife and I went up to Wisconsin

126
00:06:39.959 --> 00:06:42.720
in there and family were pointing us in the direction

127
00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:45.319
of a lake so we can go fishing, and my

128
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:47.360
wife was like, oh my god, there's no alligators.

129
00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:49.480
So she just fucking walked right into the water.

130
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:52.560
And peop were like, you gotta watch out from water moccasins.

131
00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:54.439
And we're like, man, we live with fucking sharks and

132
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:56.240
alligators and fucking pythons.

133
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:57.040
I could eat us.

134
00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:04.279
Whole, no doubt of a shit, exactly one hundred. If

135
00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:06.959
you get if you can survive Florida, you can pretty

136
00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:08.079
much survive anywhere.

137
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:13.240
But it's cool, man, Like, dude, honestly to be four

138
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:15.439
to people and going up to Ohio man and played

139
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:20.040
Our Acarceration, it's just dope, man, Like that's a show

140
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:22.759
that like you always want to play. I got jealous

141
00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:25.240
watch another band's fucking play with Muddy and came back

142
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:28.680
and played. I was like dude, good event, dude, Like

143
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.360
I'm so jealous. I wish I could be there, Like

144
00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:33.360
when a shit stay, don't care, I just want to

145
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:33.759
be there.

146
00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:36.879
Well, you know it's funny too because we all have

147
00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:39.920
the same reaction. Like one year was Eara in the morning,

148
00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:43.040
I was, you know, before everything started. I'm taking pictures

149
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:45.879
of the prison and there's this other dude next to

150
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:49.120
me from a band. He's taking pictures and he goes

151
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:51.360

161
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:20.160
Yeah, I have pictures of me in the prison cells,

162
00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:22.560
on the toilet in the prison cell.

163
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:25.920
Take you want to hear his crazy story we heard

164
00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:29.839
when we're there, was was James forcultis Black singer. He

165
00:08:29.920 --> 00:08:32.240
used to be a MOTI grader, and he said, there's

166
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:35.879
a video there's Motigrador where they had arranged it to

167
00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:40.039
be brought into the prison there and they're supposed to

168
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:42.559
be locked in there for a night with security guards

169
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:45.159
and stuff, and the security guards bailed on them and

170
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:48.919
locked them in the van in there by themselves. And

171
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.039
he was like, dude, it was pretty fuck scary.

172
00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:53.919
Man, Well check this out.

173
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.240
By the Twaying season, that prison.

174
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:03.480
Is haunted, okay, like for real. And Waylon Raves, who's

175
00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:05.679
a friend of mine, we were sitting talking.

00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:13.799
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I love because I could do him very I toured

00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:19.919
with him so much, like I learned all his mannerisms

180
00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:25.279
and stuff. And yeah, I'm sure he loves it, but

181
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:26.240
I do.

182
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:28.279
I mean I imitated him all the time.

183
00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:32.039
Did he tell you the story of filming a video

184
00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:34.679
at that prison and what happened?

185
00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:39.519
He probably? He probably had a horror story then too, didn't.

186
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:42.559
He He did? He did totally about like it's in

187
00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:48.720
this room where like prisoners got tortured and he he said,

188
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:50.960
some really wicked ship happened.

189
00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:52.840
That would be the first room I would want to.

190
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.360
Go filming, no doubt. Well check out what I do.

191
00:09:57.399 --> 00:10:00.559
So if they let us do that, because then I

192
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:04.960
would do that, Like right, yeah, give us their black

193
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.639
nights and cameras and well that's fun.

194
00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:11.320
That's right, that's right. And you know what I do

Is it raining in Georgia there? Yeah, dude, I can

213
00:11:06.919 --> 00:11:11.440

00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:17.159
Hear it right. You know it is Florida knows that

215

went right off the stage of rock Fest at nighttime

218
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:27.279
and then.

219
00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:29.440
Rolled into Ink early and almost.

220
00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:31.519
Still had our outfits on and everything, and most of

221
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:33.399
those did you get sleep? So we actually did two

222
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.200
sets with like basically no sleep.

223
00:11:36.279 --> 00:11:40.080
That's the rock star right there.

224
00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:44.399
Weird. That was it, man, We're ready for it though. Yeah,

225
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:48.200
oh you did? I still have I still have pain

226
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:48.919
in my legs.

227
00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:51.120
Oh that's funny, that's great.

228
00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:52.360
Hey check out my legs.

229
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:55.440
Bro, there's there you go.

230
00:11:55.720 --> 00:11:58.399
That's gonna go up on only fans.

231
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.559
They'll have the pain on compliments of cults is black

232
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:06.320
and really really thick.

233
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:06.840
Yeah.

234
00:12:06.840 --> 00:12:10.320
I do want to say one thing that the the

235
00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:14.879
one for me personally as a fan at Ink yesterday,

236
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:18.919
a moment that like just genuinely just made me happy

237
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:22.519
was seeing Gravy from Mushroom had come out, who doesn't

238
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:25.159
normally play in the band anymore, but to see him

239
00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:28.240
come out again is just fucking cool. Man, because that

240
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:31.759
dude is so awesome and just to like see him

241
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:34.399
up there again in that band of him his bro built,

242
00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:35.879
it's fucking cool as fuck.

243
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:37.399
Dude, Love that dude.

244
00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:41.679
Yeah, Like, there's a lot of good stuff that happened

245
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:44.320
at INC this year, So it's pretty cool that you

246
00:12:44.360 --> 00:12:46.360
were on the bill because that's one of the good

247
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:47.559
things that happened this year.

248
00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:51.679
One of the cool things is that, like you you know,

249
00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:54.679
at the festivals, why the bands all love is that

250
00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:56.519
it's like one of the only times that we all

251
00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:59.519
get to like network and meet each other where it's like, oh, man,

252
00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:01.759
like you know, like Il Nino, I met them before,

253
00:13:01.799 --> 00:13:04.039
but it's a dope that they're just there like eating

254
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:05.679
food right next So it's like, hey, man.

255
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:06.320
What's up y'all?

256
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:10.240
And I treat every single ban yeah, every band there

257
00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:10.480
you go.

258
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:12.960
It's the first having a long time, I've been a

259
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:16.679
situation where every band was treated equally. It didn't matter

260
00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:18.320
how big you were and how small you were.

261
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:21.360
Everybody was in the same area, everybody was eating the

262
00:13:21.360 --> 00:13:23.080
same food, everybody.

263
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:26.039
Had the same treatment. We had a dressing room and

264
00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:28.360
a green room to share with. Man, it's just like

265
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:33.080
every other man, it was phenomenal. The treatment was the

266
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:33.720
best ever.

267
00:13:34.279 --> 00:13:36.480
That's Spammy Wimmer and I love hearing that.

268
00:13:36.919 --> 00:13:38.840
Yeah, man, it's like that dude.

269
00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:40.960
Honestly, when I was getting ready for the shows and

270
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:44.559
you know, doing on the paperwork and shit, it's like, hey,

271
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:48.000
this is literally the top of the chain. You've maaidend

272
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:50.320
to how they do this stuff. Pay attention to all

273
00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:50.960
those stuff that.

274
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:53.039
They give you. They provide you a pr list.

275
00:13:53.120 --> 00:13:55.519
It's like, hey, man, these guys are all pros, so

276
00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:59.679
let's literally take advantage of this. Let's literally get into

277
00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:02.480
it all all the documents so that I mean, that's

278
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:04.799
how even this interview started. They literally teed it up

279
00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:06.360
for us all so a lot of bands they don't

280
00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:08.559
even bother taking the time to go through the paperwork

281
00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:10.399
in the packages, and I was like, Yo, let's see

282
00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:13.399
what every single thing they're sending us so we could

283
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:16.279
learn and upgrade our own education on because that's the

284
00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:17.320
top of the line right there.

285
00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:20.240
You want Danny Wimmer presents of it, that's what you want.

286
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:22.440
Oh yeah, listen.

287
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:24.200
That's our goal is to go play all of this,

288
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:26.639
all of his festivals. If all we did.

289
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:30.519
Was just festivals for twenty twenty five, that would be

290
00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:32.679
one of the most successful years, if not the most

291
00:14:32.720 --> 00:14:33.519
successful year.

292
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:38.039
Of crossper I love hearing that, and you know, that's

293
00:14:38.039 --> 00:14:42.080
the one thing doing festivals for so many years since

294
00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:45.759
like the beginning of the Danny Wimmer festivals. Yeah, like

295
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:51.039
they're every They're the only festivals that I do that

296
00:14:51.320 --> 00:14:55.879
I never hear one complaint from an artist at all.

297
00:14:56.480 --> 00:14:59.720
Like artists all say the same thing as you. They

298
00:14:59.799 --> 00:15:02.519
all praise it. And I think that's so important because

299
00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:05.120
there's other festivals where the artists are treated like shit.

300
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:09.000
You know, like for thirty years man, it's like I've

301
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:11.840
played all these different shows and stuff, man, and it's

302
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:15.200
like tours and like when you land at an event

303
00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:18.000
like that and you see that behind the scenes, finally

304
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:22.240
we're in. We're in the best best festival chain there is.

305
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:25.679
And now you see how they You're prepared for it

306
00:15:25.720 --> 00:15:29.360
because paperwork wise, the details are amazing, but once you

307
00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:31.399
get in there, you're like, wow, like this is it, guys,

308
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:34.399
This is like why do we want to play small stuff?

309
00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:34.600
You know?

310
00:15:34.639 --> 00:15:37.039
And it's not that we wouldn't, it's just like this

311
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:40.200
is what we as Cross Free. This is our goal

312
00:15:40.679 --> 00:15:43.000
is to be a festival band gap. That's where we

313
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.080
are ending. That's what we wanted to become, so we

314
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:49.840
could just grow our production, grow our show and really

315
00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:52.960
just like that. That's just what we actually care about

316
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:53.320
the most.

317
00:15:53.320 --> 00:15:56.080
The festivals. They're just fun. There's nothing more fun than

318
00:15:56.080 --> 00:15:56.919
a festival.

319
00:15:57.080 --> 00:15:59.200
Oh yeah, They're totally fun. That's why I love doing

320
00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:01.840
it too. And like you guys are going to be

321
00:16:01.879 --> 00:16:02.399
on all.

322
00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:03.399
Them, you got you.

323
00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:06.480
You have to love festivals really because there's some bands

324
00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:08.279
you know, I want name names, but it's like, man,

325
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:11.159
I fucking hate festivals, Like are you fucking stupid? It's

326
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:15.320
like they're literally the events that could launch your band,

327
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:16.200
no matter what.

328
00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:19.279
No doubt. And that's where I find new music too,

329
00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:22.759
like even as a fan, like I'll go see bands

330
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:26.279
at a festival that I would probably never see and

331
00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:28.240
they become my favorite band.

332
00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:32.440
The festivals creating an opportunity where you get bands that

333
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:34.480
maybe wouldn't play together play together. Like when it is

334
00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:36.159
Crossbrea's gonna play with Offspring.

335
00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:37.679
We're not gonna probably play with Offspring, but we can

336
00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:38.679
at festivals.

337
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:41.240
Yeah, exactly, you know what band?

338
00:16:41.240 --> 00:16:43.679
I was mad, I'm not mad, but upset that they

339
00:16:43.960 --> 00:16:48.159
canceled because, uh, my wife and I were super excited

340
00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:48.679
to see them.

341
00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:50.039
Was that Mongolian band?

342
00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:52.759
Oh yeah, they are cool. I've seen them a bunch

343
00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:53.279
of times.

344
00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:56.039
We've you know, i'd seen the last year.

345
00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:59.679
We went through the YouTube, you know, rabbit hole of

346
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:01.960
of that band because we just stumbled into like, who

347
00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:05.759
the fuck is this so cool? And then you know,

348
00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:10.079
America's America's fucking you know, America's sweetheart. We all had

349
00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:13.279
to go down that rabbit hole. Corey Feldman Man, holy shit,

350
00:17:16.039 --> 00:17:18.519
I mean that dude really is just on fire.

351
00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:22.160
I interviewed him at riot Fest last.

352
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:25.519
Year that all holy fuck, the one where he freaked

353
00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:30.119
out and like made the band start again. Yes, dude,

354
00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:32.960
I couldn't stop watching that. I even watched it from

355
00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:35.240
multiple angles and I was like, I can't believe he

356
00:17:35.319 --> 00:17:35.680
did that.

357
00:17:35.839 --> 00:17:36.759
That is so.

358
00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:40.599
It's like I can't wait to see this dude live.

359
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:43.440
I mean everyone, it's like he's that guy. It's like

360
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:46.960
I'm not gonna say Snoop Dogg is Snoop Dogg's super talented,

361
00:17:46.960 --> 00:17:49.279
but Snoop dog could literally just go seeing anything or

362
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:51.079
do whatever he wants and no one will care if

363
00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:51.440
it's good.

364
00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:51.799
Or bad.

365
00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:55.960
It's fucking Snoop Dogg, right, and Corey Feldman will never

366
00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:58.960
be as legit as Snoop Dogg. But he's running the

367
00:17:59.000 --> 00:17:59.920
same model.

368
00:18:01.079 --> 00:18:04.079
Right, and you know what, he's having a good time.

369
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:05.759
So that's what ka dude.

370
00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:08.640
At the end of the day, it doesn't matter, man.

371
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:11.359
It's like we're sitting here talking about fucking Corey Felman

372
00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:15.119
so right, or whether he's serious about what he's doing

373
00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:17.440
or he knows what he's doing and just trolling people,

374
00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:18.359
it doesn't matter.

375
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:19.319
He's winning.

376
00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:24.160
As long as you're having fun, You're winning as far

377
00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:25.480
as I'm concerned.

378
00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:28.240
Because who's the one to judge you what you decide

379
00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:30.519
is to success totally.

380
00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:32.759
It's like what is success like?

381
00:18:32.920 --> 00:18:35.079
Is it money and fame or is it like achieving

382
00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:36.960
the things you want to do with your friends and

383
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:38.359
like getting out there.

384
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:40.440
So I would gladly accept money.

385
00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:43.279
So if anyone wants to donate money to Crossbreed, you know,

386
00:18:43.319 --> 00:18:44.960
attention to James Reves, I would take it.

387
00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:47.960
That's not why we do this, man.

388
00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:50.559
It's like, you know, I was gone for a decade

389
00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:53.440
and I came back legitimately because I just had the

390
00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:56.839
love for music. So I have a very you know,

391
00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:59.319
high clarity as to what I'm doing, why I'm here,

392
00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:01.359
and what I want to do, what the strategy is

393
00:19:01.400 --> 00:19:04.799
for the band. And I can't even say I ever

394
00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:07.279
had that before. I mean I knew what we were

395
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:09.799
trying to do. I knew how to network and stuff,

396
00:19:09.799 --> 00:19:11.920
but like I didn't have a night. You know, if

397
00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:13.680
you asked me, hey, what are you guys doing six

398
00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:16.319
months from now, I wouldn't have known. You know, now

399
00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:18.359
it's like I already know because I'm working on like

400
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:19.319
nine months from now.

401
00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:24.640
I love it. That's so cool to hear because now

402
00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:27.200
we know for sure you're doing that for the music,

403
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:28.640
and that's the key for sure.

404
00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:32.160
You know, our new song, The Killer Inside, like one

405
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:35.240
of the important things what we wanted in that song

406
00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:39.680
was was to recapture our sound of who Crossbreed is

407
00:19:39.680 --> 00:19:42.119
is that we were club kids and metal kids from

408
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:45.079
from Ebor City, Saint Pete, you know, so you got

409
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:48.759
that fusion of that vibe and uh, you know we

410
00:19:48.839 --> 00:19:50.920
came out no fuck given. You know, that was really

411
00:19:50.920 --> 00:19:53.079
to hit the metal dudes and like, hey man, we're

412
00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:54.839
back and like guess what, you know, we can still

413
00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:57.240
do all this shit. Lose to that voice lockfuck screen

414
00:19:57.279 --> 00:20:01.559
still motherfuckers, you know, but it didn't hit the mark

415
00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:04.200
as to like the style. You know, it was a

416
00:20:04.279 --> 00:20:06.440
great song, Like we loved the song, but like we

417
00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:11.440
really wanted to recapture our sound because it's important. So

418
00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:14.599
one of the important pieces for the future of the

419
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:17.119
band was to rebuild it into a local band again,

420
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:22.559
of Florida band. So so now we're officially a Florida

421
00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:26.200
band again. You know, we've been scattered throughout the country

422
00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:29.920
once we came back, you know, like dudes in Ohio, Cleveland,

423
00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:35.279
you know, Cleveland, Ohio, Detroit, Georgia, you know, Florida, South Florida.

424
00:20:40.039 --> 00:20:44.799
I guess we're practicing never you're not going to grow

425
00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:46.359
at all. You're just gonna keep showing up like a

426
00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:48.480
cover band. And that wasn't good, yea, So we had

427
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:50.640
to change the band what it was, what it needs

428
00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:53.680
to be, so it can be you know, the actual

429
00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:58.839
creative force that we wanted to be, because like, man,

430
00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:01.200
you give us a state a man, we will fucking

431
00:21:01.359 --> 00:21:03.720
do a real fucking crush as much as we can.

432
00:21:04.279 --> 00:21:06.839
We'll put everything on the line, you know, but it's

433
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:08.359
all about the people in front of you. Man, if

434
00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:12.279
those people are not enjoying while you're playing, it doesn't

435
00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:14.839
matter how good you are or where your songs are.

436
00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:18.440
You failed, I mean, and that's the measure, that's that's

437
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:19.640
the true test.

438
00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:23.319
I think that also comes from you, guys, enjoying yourself,

439
00:21:23.319 --> 00:21:25.680
because if you're not enjoying yourself, we're not gonna be

440
00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:26.720
enjoying ourselves.

441
00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:30.640
So like I didn't enjoy myself anymore. I didn't enjoy

442
00:21:30.920 --> 00:21:35.039
doing Cross Fret anymore. I didn't enjoy the fucking the

443
00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:38.079
bullshit that you know, the music business was really not

444
00:21:38.119 --> 00:21:40.920
knowing what to do. Uh, every A lot of the

445
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:43.680
artists out there, including guys in my band, were just

446
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:46.839
like you know, no one was positive, no one was

447
00:21:46.880 --> 00:21:49.039
doing it for the right reason anymore. And now I said,

448
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:51.880
the cross bands it out and that band way before

449
00:21:51.960 --> 00:21:54.559
we were like sucking up a stage, you know, because

450
00:21:54.640 --> 00:21:56.400
I give a shit about why we did it and

451
00:21:56.400 --> 00:21:57.440
the people in front of us.

452
00:21:57.480 --> 00:22:00.400
So that's why I stopped and I didn't play for years.

453
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:02.359
I needed to learn how to be an adult because like,

454
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:05.079
you're not going to learn that, you know, in the

455
00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:09.400
music business. That's right, But now, I mean, but think

456
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:11.559
about it, so like we ended the band and then

457
00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:14.880
when Ian and I brought it back, we'd already been

458
00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:17.839
gone for a decade. We already did some of that

459
00:22:17.960 --> 00:22:20.200
adult journey of how do you become an adult?

460
00:22:20.319 --> 00:22:21.880
Like how do you own things? How do you buy

461
00:22:21.880 --> 00:22:23.240
a car? How do you own a house?

462
00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:26.839
You know, and once you get down that that that

463
00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:32.000
that path of like actually learning skills beyond the music world.

464
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:37.039
You there are places out there for guys like us. Right,

465
00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:40.440
skills that we learn in audio engineering and stuff is

466
00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:43.839
all transferable skills that you can bring into a corporate place.

467
00:22:44.440 --> 00:22:49.519
It's just understanding how to make that transition. And what

468
00:22:49.599 --> 00:22:53.960
I find and suggest to band guys is media, radio TV.

469
00:22:54.599 --> 00:22:58.039
These are natural fits for people like us because they

470
00:22:58.079 --> 00:23:01.359
know what to do with with our raw talent because

471
00:23:01.400 --> 00:23:03.839
they need it, and we need a place to learn

472
00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:08.440
how to monetize the art that we make beyond music.

473
00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:11.160
So even though I wasn't doing music, I was still

474
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:15.440
creative the whole time making stuff. But at some point

475
00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:18.720
after COVID, and you know, I was kind of ready.

476
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:21.519
Before COVID, well absolutely lockdown. I was pretty ready to

477
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:23.759
you know, you only live once.

478
00:23:24.519 --> 00:23:26.960
I mentally care as to what I want to do,

479
00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:31.759
you know, and we're all doing it for the right reasons.

480
00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:33.519
And if someone's in this band and then they're not

481
00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:35.720
doing for the right reasons, go go have fun.

482
00:23:35.599 --> 00:23:37.680
In some other band, you know, because like that's that's

483
00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:38.400
not cool with us.

484
00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:41.400
So and you know what, I don't even get people

485
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:44.440
that don't do it for the right reasons because it's

486
00:23:44.720 --> 00:23:47.279
it's not even like it was way back when where

487
00:23:47.279 --> 00:23:52.839
people were throwing partying and money at band. You know.

488
00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:56.079
It's like, if you're not having fun in this business,

489
00:23:56.119 --> 00:23:58.880
it's the wrong business because that's really the only thing

490
00:23:59.119 --> 00:24:00.079
that you got.

491
00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:01.799
Yeah, you know.

492
00:24:01.839 --> 00:24:03.599
And that's a scary thing too when you start out

493
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:05.519
so young and all you know is music. When happens

494
00:24:05.519 --> 00:24:08.039
when you're forty a that make it? You know, you're fifty,

495
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:10.519
so to make it and it's like all you know

496
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:14.039
is what you learn. It's like that's why I don't

497
00:24:14.119 --> 00:24:16.000
tell people they should take a break, But it is

498
00:24:16.039 --> 00:24:18.000
healthy to take a break from it all so you

499
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:22.039
can reset your focus because you're on a path that

500
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:25.160
you set yourself on as a teenager. Yeah, Like, have

501
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:27.160
you first stop to think about am I doing what

502
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:30.240
I even want? Like I know, so many musicians that

503
00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:33.599
get stuck in bands as a you know, as just

504
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:36.160
like a hired on gun and it's like, hey, when's

505
00:24:36.200 --> 00:24:38.279
the last time you actually played.

506
00:24:38.079 --> 00:24:39.359
Music you loved?

507
00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:42.880
Right, And the answers would scare you where you're like wow,

508
00:24:43.039 --> 00:24:45.640
and it's like you'll watch them be like, fuck, man,

509
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:47.319
it's been a long time when I've actually since I

510
00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:48.799
made music that I want to make.

511
00:24:50.160 --> 00:24:53.680
And I think that's the benefit of you taking a break,

512
00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:57.319
and even COVID, you know, even for bands that didn't

513
00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:00.480
take a break till COVID because they had to, I

514
00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:03.079
think it re energizes you.

515
00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:07.880
Well, I mean I wasn't doing it then, so it's

516
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:10.359
like I was feeling shitty as fuck for my my

517
00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:14.160
you know, my my fellow you know musicians. But the

518
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:17.559
difference is that I chose my break. It wasn't chosen

519
00:25:17.640 --> 00:25:21.079
for me. Yeah, So there's a lot of anger that

520
00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:23.400
still comes in that COVID time because man, in the

521
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:27.119
hospitality industry, the music industry, everything was just fucking wiped

522
00:25:27.119 --> 00:25:28.119
off the face of the earth for.

523
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:28.799
A couple of years.

524
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:32.519
Yeah, so it's like, you know, they're all eager to

525
00:25:32.519 --> 00:25:34.319
get back out there because they all had to take

526
00:25:34.359 --> 00:25:34.759
it away.

527
00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:38.200
But it's different when you choose to.

528
00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:41.039
Take that that time off because now like when you

529
00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:43.359
come back, like it's all for the right reasons, you

530
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:46.559
actually love it again. So you see us playing on stage,

531
00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:50.440
you can genuinely tell we're actually having fun, like we're

532
00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:53.599
fucking with each other. You know, I'm in I'm barely

533
00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:55.359
even on stage. You give me a stage with a

534
00:25:55.400 --> 00:25:58.880
fucking barricade. I'm not even on stage that much. I

535
00:25:58.960 --> 00:26:02.640
want to be with the people, you know. The Ramstein tour,

536
00:26:02.680 --> 00:26:06.279
I toured with the tournee and I used to hop

537
00:26:06.319 --> 00:26:08.039
off the stage to get by the people. So they

538
00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:10.160
didn't really know, like why I wasn't moving around as much,

539
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:12.519
but it's like I couldn't. I literally fucked my need up.

540
00:26:13.359 --> 00:26:15.759
So after doing that and then it healed up. I

541
00:26:15.839 --> 00:26:17.640
just kept doing that because it was just so much

542
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:20.000
more fun just being in the crowd, fucking with the crowd.

543
00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:24.039
Right. But I think it's cool too when bands like

544
00:26:24.079 --> 00:26:26.640
they jump in with us into the pit and stuff

545
00:26:26.680 --> 00:26:28.680
like that. It's just so much fun.

546
00:26:29.079 --> 00:26:33.200
I went into the pit when we were playing. I

547
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:35.960
just started running around and I ran back up. I

548
00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:40.079
don't even know why. It was just like sometimes it's

549
00:26:40.119 --> 00:26:42.599
just fun. Man, Like Colts as Black was playing and

550
00:26:42.599 --> 00:26:45.359
I was like, hey, let's go out there and fuck

551
00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:47.000
with them. So we threw our shot on, jumped in

552
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:49.279
the crowd and started being fans. And I saw some

553
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:52.160
little kid with the cults bat Colts Black mask on,

554
00:26:53.119 --> 00:26:54.400
and then James came down to.

555
00:26:54.400 --> 00:26:57.160
The to the crowd seeing up to them.

556
00:26:57.160 --> 00:26:58.759
So I picked this kid up and I put him

557
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:01.000
on the rail man so that little kid can have

558
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:02.799
a moment with James. It was like, we're just there

559
00:27:02.839 --> 00:27:06.519
to fuck around, but identifying, like, yo, that little kid, man,

560
00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:07.920
this is a moment that kids.

561
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:09.240
Could remember, no doubt.

562
00:27:09.559 --> 00:27:10.359
So let me help him.

563
00:27:10.480 --> 00:27:13.000
Let me help out my brother James and and make

564
00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:13.960
a moment for him.

565
00:27:14.359 --> 00:27:15.480
And it was just cool to see.

566
00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:17.759
Man. It was like, wow, you know, that's the kind

567
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:19.480
of ship that when you think about when you first

568
00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:22.720
started going to these concerts, you know, like when like

569
00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:24.319
I hop up with Colts Black and.

570
00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:26.359
Your stuff, Dude, that's just dope.

571
00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:28.119
And you see bands that you like and they they

572
00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:30.319
go hop up on each other stages having fun with

573
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:32.519
each other, Like that's what it's about.

574
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:33.839
Bass fucking rock and roll.

575
00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:36.920
Man, that's what it should all be about.

576
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:37.519
Man.

577
00:27:38.359 --> 00:27:40.440
I was trained by Bill Poynt, So I don't know

578
00:27:40.480 --> 00:27:43.680
if you know him or remember Bill point, but he's

579
00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:47.400
not with us anymore. He was he was original manager

580
00:27:47.400 --> 00:27:51.559
of Kiss. Yeah, yeah, he was our manager for eight years.

581
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:55.039
But he's no longer with you know, our role any longer.

582
00:27:55.039 --> 00:27:57.599
But everything he taught me, man is now making so

583
00:27:57.720 --> 00:28:00.519
much more sense as an adult. Well, I was like, oh,

584
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:02.039
you know what when he told me I need to

585
00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:06.799
be hydrated, drinking water all the time instead of soda, you.

586
00:28:06.799 --> 00:28:10.160
Know, as an adult now, like a real adult, I.

587
00:28:10.119 --> 00:28:13.480
Can say he was right, right exactly.

588
00:28:13.599 --> 00:28:16.720
I drink a buck ton of water when you practice

589
00:28:16.759 --> 00:28:19.359
and stuff. You know, the next day your voice feels fine,

590
00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:23.559
your body's fine. And it was like, oh, I need

591
00:28:23.559 --> 00:28:25.319
to take care of my body and then my voice

592
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:28.559
would just be straight. I just never knew that, right,

593
00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:31.720
you know, Smoking weed is you know, it's a huge

594
00:28:31.759 --> 00:28:32.799
benefit most of the time.

595
00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:39.319
Yes, sometimes you forget shit.

596
00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:42.839
Yeah, especially in Florida with when you gotta deal with

597
00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:43.720
shit in Florida.

598
00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:45.880
Dude, I got my medal from car Man. You know,

599
00:28:46.039 --> 00:28:49.440
I am prescribed for my PTSD.

600
00:28:51.119 --> 00:28:55.079
There you go, you know, and the State of Florida

601
00:28:55.559 --> 00:28:58.799
deems me qualified for you know, four ounces of the

602
00:28:58.799 --> 00:28:59.880
weed every thirty five days.

603
00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:02.839
Hey, that that's a large amount right there.

604
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:05.319
That's a pretty bump up because I was like, I

605
00:29:05.359 --> 00:29:07.440
really need more, and they're like, okay, we should go

606
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:12.519
for the four I'm like, okay, but you know, I

607
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:14.440
actually use it, man where it actually helps me. Man,

608
00:29:14.480 --> 00:29:17.440
I actually I'm actually use it for vesicine all day long.

609
00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:22.519
I've been a professional. I've learned how to like how

610
00:29:22.519 --> 00:29:24.599
to operate in the workspace and how to actually like

611
00:29:25.240 --> 00:29:27.480
focus on the work ahead of me instead of being like, oh,

612
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:29.240
I could build a business. Is like, or I could

613
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:31.000
just be high and focused on the job in hand

614
00:29:31.039 --> 00:29:33.519
and just knock out that task. So it's like I'm

615
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:35.880
not ripped all the time. It just normalizes me. So

616
00:29:35.880 --> 00:29:38.799
I could actually, you know, you get a there's a

617
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:41.240
bad fucking wrap for people smoke weed. It's like, oh,

618
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:44.119
they're just owners. Like, hey, that's true, but some of

619
00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:46.519
us actually use it, you know, instead of like, Hey,

620
00:29:46.519 --> 00:29:47.920
what's your crazy pills you take here?

621
00:29:47.960 --> 00:29:49.240
I don't do those. I just smoke weed.

622
00:29:49.960 --> 00:29:53.039
Yeah, I'd rather smoke weed than take any of those

623
00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:54.680
big pharm up pills.

624
00:29:54.759 --> 00:29:58.519
Period, because I mean in our world of music and entertainment, man, it's.

625
00:29:58.400 --> 00:30:00.960
Like, how dangerous is it to fall too? I mean

626
00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:01.680
not judging.

627
00:30:02.160 --> 00:30:04.480
I mean I love mushrooms and shit, you know, but

628
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:05.799
that's natural shit.

629
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:09.680
Right exactly. You know the stuff that they're giving us

630
00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:12.880
from big pharm and that's just pure chemicals too that

631
00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:13.519
kill us.

632
00:30:13.839 --> 00:30:17.519
Oh man, here's a good funny thing. You live in Florida, right, Yeah,

633
00:30:18.599 --> 00:30:20.039
you remember voting for marijuana.

634
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:22.880
Yeah, we're voting again.

635
00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:28.960
Yeah, so once you remove that, uh, what other drugs

636
00:30:28.960 --> 00:30:35.440
that we ever voted for? Hmm exactly? How ironic is

637
00:30:35.480 --> 00:30:36.640
that irony?

638
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:38.039
I know? Right?

639
00:30:38.599 --> 00:30:41.279
Like, hey, I don't remember voting for oxy cotton. I

640
00:30:41.279 --> 00:30:42.240
don't remember voting for.

641
00:30:42.359 --> 00:30:45.799
Yeah, that's not true. What a great point. I never

642
00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:47.960
thought of that. That's a great point.

643
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:48.319
You know.

644
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:50.279
I'm gonna bring that up even more now.

645
00:30:50.559 --> 00:30:50.759
Think.

646
00:30:51.920 --> 00:30:54.240
No, it's just a solid point where it's like, hey, guys,

647
00:30:54.640 --> 00:30:56.599
all these bills and you know, marijuana, we gotta be

648
00:30:56.640 --> 00:30:58.880
careful and stuff. Hey man, remember all these bucking crazy

649
00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:00.880
bills that you got people and prescribed him on a

650
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:04.680
regular basis, Like, I don't know, I don't remember voting

651
00:31:04.680 --> 00:31:05.119
for those.

652
00:31:05.680 --> 00:31:09.480
No, I don't vote for him at all. So, yeah,

653
00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:12.640
you guys are bad ass, and you tell everybody how

654
00:31:12.680 --> 00:31:15.200
they can reach out to you on the socials, on

655
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:17.440
the web, your wing tree, all that, I.

656
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:18.440
Think I might feel to do it.

657
00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:20.680
First off, actually just made her link tree, so that's cool,

658
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:24.559
so I can get that out there more. But Spotify, man,

659
00:31:25.000 --> 00:31:28.400
we have all of our songs up on Spotify. Ironically,

660
00:31:28.480 --> 00:31:31.279
Seasons is our number one Spotify song still.

661
00:31:31.680 --> 00:31:34.480
It's one of the first songs I ever wrote. Dude.

662
00:31:34.519 --> 00:31:36.359
It's insane, isn't that amazing?

663
00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:37.440
Yeah?

664
00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:39.960
And then YouTube, man, go check out our new video,

665
00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:42.880
The Killer Inside. We shot it in the h at

666
00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:46.119
the Nightmare Cleveland Haunted House, the Attraction.

667
00:31:46.319 --> 00:31:49.400
Nice and it is a badass video, dude.

668
00:31:49.480 --> 00:31:51.200
And it's like a literal movie set.

669
00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:53.240
You walk in there in every room and the entire

670
00:31:53.240 --> 00:31:56.359
place built out, and we're characters dressed up too, so

671
00:31:56.559 --> 00:31:58.200
like it's a natural fit.

672
00:31:58.240 --> 00:31:59.599
We just need a joke to start shooting.

673
00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:02.599
And it was so much fun, you know, to do

674
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:05.839
a video without the instruments, and shit, I don't I

675
00:32:05.880 --> 00:32:08.279
love it. I don't think we'll ever go back to

676
00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:12.079
doing videos like that because this way you can bring

677
00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:14.000
in some of the old members and stuff that you know,

678
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:15.960
they don't really want to play anymore, but like it'd

679
00:32:16.000 --> 00:32:18.519
be cool to like original guys, get them come out.

680
00:32:18.400 --> 00:32:19.519
And do video stuff.

681
00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:20.759
Oh, that would be cool.

682
00:32:21.079 --> 00:32:24.039
Because if you think about Crossbreed as like a comic book,

683
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:27.279
you know, like if we're we're a comic book, Mushroom,

684
00:32:27.279 --> 00:32:30.359
that's comic book. You know, cultsplex comic, all of us

685
00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:31.160
are comics.

686
00:32:31.799 --> 00:32:33.039
It don't make sense.

687
00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:35.960
Man, I love it.

688
00:32:36.200 --> 00:32:38.799
Fill towards you know, because comic Con. Man looks like,

689
00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:40.480
why can't we be there making money?

690
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:43.839
Yeah, they should have like music festivals at comic Con.

691
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:45.039
It's getting there.

692
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:45.200
Man.

693
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:47.400
If you think about like Twisted plays a lot of

694
00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:50.119
comic cons. They go out there and stuff. And Derek

695
00:32:50.119 --> 00:32:53.279
Obscura in our band, he plays the Twisted too, So

696
00:32:53.319 --> 00:32:55.000
it's like one of those ironies where it's like, man,

697
00:32:55.039 --> 00:32:57.079
even one of our bandmates goes and does this stuff

698
00:32:57.119 --> 00:32:57.559
all the time.

699
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:01.079
It's like, why are we not doing this right? So

700
00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:02.720
that's where you know a lot of our stuff is

701
00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:03.680
gonna be hitading tours.

702
00:33:03.680 --> 00:33:06.160
But yeah, I'd just say like let's just stick with

703
00:33:06.200 --> 00:33:08.920
the basics. Spotify and YouTube are the only two things

704
00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:10.680
we really care about, you know, and that or stuff

705
00:33:10.680 --> 00:33:13.079
to play list, you know your playlist and h you know,

706
00:33:13.480 --> 00:33:15.640
I just sit repeated those times.

707
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:20.440
There it is, well, you guys rock and you thank

708
00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:24.880
you for killing it at incarceration and actually it was

709
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:25.640
the prison.

710
00:33:26.440 --> 00:33:28.960
To stand on that stage, see the prison all around us,

711
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:30.559
the crowd in front of us. The man, it was

712
00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:33.160
fucking awesome. It was worth every fucking bit of like

713
00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:36.839
that struggle we had to do, driving twelve hours straight.

714
00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:38.319
It was just badass and amazing.

715
00:33:38.359 --> 00:33:41.119
It's such a beautiful just cap tore the whole run

716
00:33:41.160 --> 00:33:42.079
with faults.

717
00:33:42.440 --> 00:33:45.920
So and we'll have to race on the Daytona Speedway

718
00:33:45.960 --> 00:33:48.599
when you play Rockville in twenty twenty five.

719
00:33:49.039 --> 00:33:51.079
Man, there's no doubt and there's no reason why we

720
00:33:51.079 --> 00:33:55.559
shouldn't be there. You know, I will beg our rough feet.

721
00:33:58.359 --> 00:34:02.519
I just yeah there more than feed. Yeah, we wanted

722
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:04.799
to get into Danny Wimber Presents. We got in, man,

723
00:34:04.839 --> 00:34:06.880
and we did everything you know, best we possibly could.

724
00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:08.440
And now we hope that you know, we can now

725
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:09.639
to eat up for Rockville.

726
00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:13.239
So there it is. Well, you guys are badass. Everybody's

727
00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:17.480
gotta check out your music and listen the new song.

728
00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:20.679
I mean you could put that on any horror film.

729
00:34:20.719 --> 00:34:26.480
There is so like there the listeners that, yeah.

730
00:34:26.880 --> 00:34:31.000
It should actually be for any horror song or horror movie.

731
00:34:31.480 --> 00:34:33.519
That was literally what we were trying to write.

732
00:34:34.039 --> 00:34:38.719
And I dare all the listeners to turn down the

733
00:34:38.920 --> 00:34:43.480
volume of their favorite horror movie and play this song

734
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:45.519
and it will go with it.

735
00:34:45.519 --> 00:34:47.800
It's funny you say that, because we were actually testing

736
00:34:47.840 --> 00:34:50.159
that the other day before we're getting ready to go out.

737
00:34:50.679 --> 00:34:54.159
I started watching different trailers with the volumes off, so like,

738
00:34:54.239 --> 00:34:56.400
when you get back, I could start making into that content.

739
00:34:56.480 --> 00:34:59.039
But I have so much content from the shows we

740
00:34:59.119 --> 00:35:00.920
just did. We did a cam grounded an Asian at

741
00:35:00.960 --> 00:35:04.880
Rock Best to go party and eat and smoke the

742
00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:05.480
People's lead.

743
00:35:08.119 --> 00:35:09.920
We got video footage of all of this. So I

744
00:35:09.960 --> 00:35:11.039
get back, I got a lot of.

745
00:35:11.079 --> 00:35:15.880
Editing to do. So well, man, I can't wait.

746
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:18.079
I don't want to lose you. I think my bone's

747
00:35:18.119 --> 00:35:18.519
gonna die.

748
00:35:18.719 --> 00:35:21.400
Yeah, you're gonna lose me. So we'll let you go

749
00:35:22.239 --> 00:35:24.519
get back safely to Florida and we'll see a lot

750
00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:25.280

Yo, man, let's do fistball.

759
00:35:41.480 --> 00:35:43.760

Do you look at this hand? Dude? This hand is

762
00:35:51.079 --> 00:35:51.840
already broken.

763
00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:53.880
So oh man, I had to wait to.

764
00:35:53.960 --> 00:35:55.679
Get home to fix it because I didn't want to

765
00:35:55.719 --> 00:35:57.840
fuck it up again. So then I'm doing the fist

766
00:35:57.880 --> 00:36:00.679
buss of people and people start fucking full punching my

767
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:03.920

00:36:04.039 --> 00:36:05.920
knuckles and hands hurt so bad.

769
00:36:05.960 --> 00:36:09.320
I'm like, I need a handle hold of my guys.
