James Black and Rick Jacket from Finger eleven.

11
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:11.159
Nice here at Louder than life.

12
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:11.640
That's right?

13
00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:17.680
How's it? Yeah? Right, It'll be even louder tomorrow night

14
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:20.959
when Slayer plays and Slipping out tonight, Oh my god,

15
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:24.879
slip not tonight, that's why. Okay, So I have this rule.

16
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:27.879
I never wear a shirt unless you're iconic, like I

17
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:30.239
do have my Slayer shirt for tomorrow. Yeah, but I

18
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:32.439
never wear a shirt of a band that's playing at

19
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:34.959
the festival while I'm doing there, because if I'm doing

20
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:37.599
their reviews, it's kind of insulting, I think. So I'm

21
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:40.599
wearing a Vended shirt. Do you know vendd No, No,

22
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:43.599
that's Clown and Cory's kids.

23
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:47.400
Okay, yeah, and that's like a deep cut, I guess.

24
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:53.400
Yeah. They sound very much like h Griffin. Cory Sun

25
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.359
sounds a lot like Corey even talking sounds like Corey. Okay.

26
00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:01.640
So yeah, so I fair I can wear this shirt.

27
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:06.000
Yeah yeah, they're not playing here, so I didn't break

28
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:11.039
my role. So have you guys played it louder in

29
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:11.680
life before?

30
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:14.000
No, we haven't. This the first for us.

31
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:16.080
What do you think of it so far?

32
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:18.280
You know what I was? I was blown away by

33
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:19.360
the size of the audience.

34
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:23.439
I was right, I know, first day at the festival,

35
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:27.680
early in the day, like, who's showing up? You're faked.

36
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:30.080
I mean, I'm sure there'll be more people later, but

37
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:31.879
it was. It was great man. We had a good

38
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:32.319
time of it.

39
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:36.080
That's the cool thing about that Danny Wimmer festivals is that,

40
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:41.000
like there's always crowds for the early bands, and Danny

41
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:44.000
just knows how to promote it. And from what I

42
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.439
understand every artist I've ever talked to, he knows how

43
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.199
to treat the artists. Would you agree, Well, so far,

44
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:50.680
so good?

45
00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:51.240
Yeah?

46
00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:52.080
Right, awesome?

47
00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:54.120
Yeah, I mean we woke up right back to our

48
00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:58.080
buses parked right behind the stage. Nice and so it's

49
00:02:58.199 --> 00:03:00.280
from the second I opened my eyes I was in

50
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:01.319
this concert.

51
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:05.120
It's and it's awesome. Yeah, it's awesome. So are there

52
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:08.280
ain't bands you're sticking around yourself to go see today.

53
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:10.960
I mean definitely slipped on, like really slipped on is

54
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:13.560
something we listened on the bus and stuff. So it's

55
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:15.680
like we're fans. I'm excited to see the guys from

56
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:17.599
see Either. We haven't seen them in over a decade,

57
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:19.759
so that'd be cool. And then I'm like we were

58
00:03:19.759 --> 00:03:22.039
talking like we're not all offspring fans, but I am so.

59
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:24.719
I think when Austin gets up there and like the

60
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:26.840
songs get going and their sound list gets going.

61
00:03:26.759 --> 00:03:29.000
The crowd is gonna really get worlded, like whipped up me.

62
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.560
But yeah, this is a is a new first for us.

63
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:34.080
This whole Danny's world is like he invited us in

64
00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:36.360
and we're very very excited to play.

65
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:39.240
And I think we did what we do, which is fun.

66
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:41.240
You had to have killed it to have that kind

67
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:43.800
of crowd, right, otherwise they're walking away like we.

68
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:46.840
Got paralyzer and I've never seen anybody mashed a paralyzer,

69
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:48.360
but we did today and it was pretty cool.

70
00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:50.120
We had to go for one thing.

71
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:52.719
They were watching for our acoustic songs, So that's how

72
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:53.759
you know it's going good.

73
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:57.560
Yeah, isn't it funny too when people like sometimes I'm

74
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.719
like old squam, Like really you're mashing too that. Yeah,

75
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.319
but it's kind of cool. It takes over.

76
00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:06.280
That's like I know, but I can't stop myself. It's like,

77
00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:08.439
that's what you want. You want that frenzy, right.

78
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:12.719
Yeah, So now how you're going to top Louder than Life?

79
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:13.639
What you're doing next?

80
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:15.120
Making a record?

81
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.360
Finish a record and releasing that record, which has been

82
00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:21.240
about eight years for us, But the music's there and

83
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:24.720
it's like the creative flow is there, which is really

84
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:25.800
exciting for us.

85
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:30.480
We have a few dates left with Creed that we've

86
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.120
been playing with the last like I don't know how many.

87
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:35.519
Is that like a flashback for you because that's how

88
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:37.920
you came up in the beginning, you know. Like so

89
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:40.240
it's like but what's great is that we kind of

90
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:44.680
now we're a different entity, right, like same people, but

91
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:49.399
the the songs are kind of bigger than they were

92
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:50.920
when we were the opening band.

93
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:53.480
So there's a different feeling when we're doing it. Even

94
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:55.399
though it's a throwback.

95
00:04:55.319 --> 00:05:00.079
It's a different vibe. Yeah, and every like it's it

96
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:04.399
sort of has this positive I don't know, there's something too.

97
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:04.800
It's like.

98
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:09.519
It's it's like it's not trying to be mean. It's

99
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:13.560
all about like arms wide open and being having fun.

100
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.160
So I don't know, it's kind of neat at this point.

101
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:18.959
Well, I think going into it, I definitely it felt

102
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:21.439
like a nostalgic play, you know what I mean, because

103
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:23.240
all the way bands were lined up, even the name

104
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:24.680
of the tour Summer at ninety nine, you know what

105
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:28.680
I mean. Yeah, But in the moment, there's something different happening,

106
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:30.480
and I think it's a generational thing, and I think

107
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:32.920
there's a young generation and an old generation to join

108
00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:35.519
the music on the same level, which I don't know.

109
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:37.040
That's a trip too, right.

110
00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:39.199
It is like we've done a lot of concerts.

111
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:41.319
I've been to a lot of concerts for my whole life,

112
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:43.279
and there's an energy at that concert.

113
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:45.720
I don't know what it is, but it's different. It's happy.

114
00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:47.160
It's a very positive vibe there.

115
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:49.439
Say. I love that because even when it comes to

116
00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:54.920
bands like Slayer, they're a positive vibe, but people think

117
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:55.800
they're not right.

118
00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:59.199
Tom's personality between songs, there's nothing but joy and happiness,

119
00:05:59.240 --> 00:05:59.399
you know.

120
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.800
Oh dude, Okay. I was at their first show ever.

121
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:05.800
But I was just saw them at riot Fest on

122
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:10.800
Sunday and I can't stop commenting about how much fun

123
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:14.639
he was having on stage. He was smiling and laughing

124
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:19.720
the whole time. Well, like Carrie's like mister serious, and

125
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:22.519
Tom's just like up there, like you don't think he's

126
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:25.759
singing these songs about death and destruction. And he even

127
00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:28.399
made a comment about it, we're having fun here, so

128
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:32.120
singing some songs about death and destruction. He's laughing and

129
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:36.639
smiling while I was saying, it's pretty cool.

130
00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:37.759
That's what makes it so special.

131
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:40.199
I mean, that's like that yin yang of him and

132
00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:43.000
Carrie is what makes that like, I don't know, increase

133
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:46.040
that sort of cyclical like energy that goes around on

134
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:46.360
the stage.

135
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:46.800
It's cool man.

136
00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:52.879
And so I also have a question for you, because

137
00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:56.360
you're coming out with new music, you're touring with Creed again,

138
00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:04.959
do you think that COVID it helped renew your artistic desire?

139
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:09.560
Like I kind of feel like that's the positive. You

140
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:11.439
know what you can't do without, And.

141
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:15.920
It's like and you can't cancel concerts out of life, like.

142
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:18.600
There's no virtual that works.

143
00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:23.040
It's like pecially concerts, especially that time, Like, I think

144
00:07:23.079 --> 00:07:25.120
that's when we need it most. I think that's why

145
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:29.439
people were so pissed and depressed. You need this outlet,

146
00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:32.959
like this is therapy. It revealed the.

147
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:36.279
Like the the vitalness of it. Like at some point

148
00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:39.639
it's like it's entertainment, but then something deeper is like

149
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:43.279
this is necessary and you can't take it away, Like I.

150
00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:45.959
Will say this, so I will say that. I mean,

151
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:51.000
it happens, so you can't. It can't unhappen. But pre COVID,

152
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:55.720
the audience, the band, the whole energy was different. Phones

153
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:57.639
were out, people were like it was more of a

154
00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:00.639
social event than the actual band performing.

155
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:02.439
Yeah, post Covid is different, man.

156
00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:04.240
They put their phones away there in the moment and

157
00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:06.879
there and we are too, And there's.

158
00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:07.199
That's why it's hoping.

159
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:09.319
The energy that we used to know in the nineties.

160
00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:11.879
It seems to be back that connection between the band

161
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:12.560
and the audience.

162
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:13.639
And that's cool, man.

163
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:14.040
I like that.

164
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:16.000
That's my favorite part of the concerts.

165
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:19.040
That's why I was hoping for COVID because, like, like

166
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:22.079
you were pointing out to your point, I'm looking at

167
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:26.600
these streams and I'm like, for the artists, how can

168
00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:29.360
that be any fun. You're like, you feed off the crowd,

169
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:32.399
and for me, it's like it's not the same energy.

170
00:08:32.519 --> 00:08:34.879
Like I'm gonna be in that fucking slip knock pit

171
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:35.600
tonight sweat.

172
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:38.039
You want the heat, you want you need that bumping

173
00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:41.519
into people as it's going on, like because that's what

174
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:44.360
it's it. It's like all these people that you don't

175
00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:47.240
know came to this one spot to sing the same

176
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:49.519
song you want to sing. Yeah, But when it's at home,

177
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:53.039
that's the same as everyone's microwave in the same dinner

178
00:08:53.039 --> 00:08:53.559
at the same time.

179
00:08:53.559 --> 00:08:57.080
It's not no doubt, no doubt. I also think as artists,

180
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:01.159
you guys have before COVID were on this long term

181
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:06.200
hamster wheel where Yeah lost to Jews because you to

182
00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:09.720
a show after show, you're writing between shows, you didn't

183
00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:12.200
have time to even think about what you wanted your

184
00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:15.399
music to be, Yeah, and that gave you the downtime

185
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:20.440
to really recreate that feeling you had when you first

186
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:21.399
started music.

187
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:26.000
That I think also, it's sort of like because even

188
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:28.120
if you wanted to, well, at least where we were living,

189
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.759
it wasn't happening. So it sort of reminded you why

190
00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:33.600
as well, like that was a big part for me,

191
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:36.240
Like I felt like we've been doing this since we

192
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:37.600
were in high school, and that was the first time

193
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:40.080
and since we started where someone had ever said, you

194
00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:42.480
got eighteen months and you're not gonna be in the band, right,

195
00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:44.240
But we couldn't go anywhere, you know what I mean.

196
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:46.440
But it was enough time.

197
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:49.000
For me to for me personally to we discovered a

198
00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:50.720
guitar and how much I loved because I had nothing

199
00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:53.080
else to do and all but guitar had become the

200
00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:55.519
thing I do on stage and when part of.

201
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:57.799
The job only picked up to right or to play

202
00:09:57.960 --> 00:09:58.480
or perform.

203
00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:00.759
And for the first time since I was like teenager,

204
00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:03.360
it was just in my garage with my Marshall and

205
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:06.159
my turntable and just learning riffs again.

206
00:10:06.200 --> 00:10:08.240
And that was a good thing for me personally.

207
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:09.080
It was out flooring.

208
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:10.320
Yeah, it wasn't even about creating.

209
00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:13.480
It was just about remembering the reason it all started

210
00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:15.360
in the first place, because it had been taken away,

211
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:16.360
and it was a nice thing.

212
00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:19.960
Tell everybody how they can reach out to you on

213
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.039
