PipemanRadio Interviews My Diligence at Bloodstock Open Air 2025.

The Pipeman Radio tour landed at The UK’s biggest independent metal festival featuring not only some of the biggest bands in Heavy Metal and Hard Rock, but also some of the best emerging metal music out of the UK and Europe competing in Metal 2 The Masses for a spot to play on New Blood Stage. The festival also features The Sophie Lancaster Stage dedicated to the memory of Sophie being brutally beaten and murdered just for being Goth and different. Sophie’s story particularly resonating with anyone who has been bullied, abused, or attacked for simply being who they are. The mission of The Sophie Lancaster Foundation is to stamp out prejudice, hatred and intolerance everywhere. This festival is more than just great music, fun, awareness, and togetherness. It's a family driven DIY Festival that cares where there ar eno outsiders. We join together for a common cause.

1
00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:08.640
Hi you Lunt, Yes that's true.

2
00:00:09.400 --> 00:00:12.359
For Wow, crazy Young.

3
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.120
This is the pipe Man here on the Avengers pipe

4
00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:20.239
Man W four c Y Radio and I'm here with.

5
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:25.760
My diligence from Brussels, Belgium, just cross the channel.

6
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:28.239
We love to come to the island and we will

7
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:28.679
come back.

8
00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:31.960
I love it, I love it, and you're here at Bloodstock.

9
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:34.439
How the fuck did that happen that you're at this

10
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:35.479
great festival.

11
00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:38.600
Wow, for us it's a bit like waking up dream

12
00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:43.240
because it's our very first time in a major festival

13
00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:47.200
in England. Actually it's our second every show in England.

14
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:50.119
We were out. We were eight months ago. We were

15
00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:54.840
playing London for a showcase festival called the Iff, and

16
00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:58.240
so for us it's the very first time we are

17
00:00:58.280 --> 00:00:59.920
confronted to Britoldian.

18
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:02.280
We love it and how.

19
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:03.399
Do they love you here?

20
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:07.640
Well we don't know yet, but from the London one

21
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:08.319
I know.

22
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:12.560
There was no audience. It was a showcase professionals. But

23
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:16.200
if you're talking about the audience today, I would say

24
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:19.599
they can love it because they were head banging so much,

25
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:23.799
and also they stayed for our show, which is a

26
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:27.680
pretty good spy. I would say I took that picture

27
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:32.840
from the stage with a fully backdup marquee And actually

28
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.599
this is what we need as newcomer artists. We need that,

29
00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:40.159
we need the supports of the people. And I think

30
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:44.040
that also the audience from the metal scenes. They are

31
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:48.280
so smart intelligence and they are so respectful, and these

32
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:51.480
guys are looking for everything, are not scared to discover

33
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:54.959
new shit, and they're super great audience. We love them,

34
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.280
we love them, We love our audience. But you see

35
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.439
all these people head bangings in front of us. It's

36
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.120
tucky gifted those moments.

37
00:02:03.359 --> 00:02:05.920
And so do you speak Flemish too?

38
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:07.840
Non French?

39
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:08.680
Just friend?

40
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:09.879
Yeah, I mean a.

41
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:12.599
Little bit Flemish, little bit, a little little bit.

42
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:16.080
So I was laughing because I was at grasp Pop

43
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:20.759
last year covering it and what's the fuck? I can't

44
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:23.520
believe I'm drawing blank because I love them, but Dave

45
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:27.800
Lombardo and Mike Patt and fuck, I can't.

46
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:28.960
Believe we're drawing the blank.

47
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:32.840
Yes, yeah, yes, mister, thank you.

48
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.960
They did their version of speaking was your die of

49
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:40.719
s O D. But did speak Flemish or die?

50
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:43.680
Well? The thing is that in Belgium it's a very

51
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:46.479
small country. I would say like we have the same

52
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:48.319
issue as Switzerland, but.

53
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:50.039
Without the money.

54
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:51.199
And the thing is that.

55
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:58.840
So we learned Flemish at school, but unfortunately we were.

56
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:01.919
Not smart enough to ignites it.

57
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:05.719
Nowadays it can tricks us a little bit because it's

58
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.400
very important in Bedium nowadays speak Famish.

59
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:10.919
So we regret a little bit. We should have, we

60
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:11.439
should have to.

61
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:16.199
Do our homework, but unfortunately we didn't because we are

62
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:22.080
like crazy dudes, not thinking about tomorrow and what. But

63
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:24.319
in another life, whether it is a.

64
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:27.719
Problem in Belgium, I think all the people can speak

65
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:31.639
in English in Belgium and if you I think, I

66
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:34.439
speak a little bit Flemish and everything is cool with

67
00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:37.759
all the people in the music seeing them, and we

68
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:39.960
don't have the barrier from the language.

69
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:42.560
That's the beauty of music.

70
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:47.159
Like it's amazing when some bands they speak another language,

71
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:50.680
or even bands that come from America over to another

72
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:54.520
country and people are singing the lyrics but they can't

73
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:58.080
speak the language. That's the beauty of music is it's

74
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.960
the universal language.

75
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.759
What it is. But unfortunately the business of music is

76
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:09.280
not that so universal. That's for sure, that's for sure.

77
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:12.120
But we really.

78
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:17.720
Musician, not the industry of music. But in the for

79
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:21.040
the all the musicians, I think it's the beautiful thing.

80
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:25.040
We speak not the same language, but we understand the

81
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:25.879
music and the.

82
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:31.040
Beautiful, beautiful. It's a beautiful art. You don't need to talk.

83
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:35.040
We don't just joy the real momont.

84
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:39.079
Just head bang and mush all together like one big family.

85
00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:42.839
The thing is that us artists, we're I think all

86
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:45.759
the people who are performing on stages here at the

87
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:48.199
Bloodstock today we're not thinking.

88
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:52.079
We're thinking differently of other people. We are very fragile.

89
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:56.199
We're like satellites who's taking all the emotions of the

90
00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:59.720
world and we're trying to write it on a paper

91
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:01.720
as music or whatever.

92
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:03.519
And this is really complicated.

93
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:08.560
And first things first, we're doing what we think we

94
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.439
want to be. We want to do sorry, and we're

95
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:13.920
not doing music for the Organs. First, we're doing music

96
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:15.920
for us. That's the only way it should be and

97
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:16.600
if it works.

98
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:18.879
But we're not going to sell us to the devil.

99
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:22.279
Just unless it's Ausy, then you could sell it to

100
00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:25.040
AUSI exactly think of the Devil.

101
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:26.800
Oh, yeah, we love us.

102
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:30.680
I mean Ossy, I mean, well, he's a perfect example.

103
00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:33.319
He didn't go by any rules. He didn't give a

104
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.600
shit about anything. It was just auzsy exactly.

105
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:39.759
I mean it's amazing because they're staying in a hotel

106
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:43.800
in Birmingham and we say we're leaving tomorrow and we.

107
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:45.800
Say we have to go to the Black Stubbo Bridge.

108
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:48.519
Yes, and to pay tribute. I went there on the

109
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:54.439
way here. Okay, what's crowded, No, not anymore. So what

110
00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:58.439
was cool is they have a live stream going that

111
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:02.240
you hit this QR code that they have there and

112
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:04.160
it'll take a picture of you.

113
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:05.480
And send it to your phone.

114
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:09.720
Amazing, badass. So twenty twenty five ish.

115
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:13.360
Right, but yeah, you can't leave here without going the

116
00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:14.560
Black Sabbath bench.

117
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:18.120
But it's it's also to pay tribute, yeah, because obviously

118
00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:21.519
Black Sabbath. You know, we're doing this kind of using

119
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:26.879
that osciate between Doom, Psychololic STONA and Boss hardcore. So

120
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:29.879
obviously Doom is something that Blacks but created that were

121
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:30.879
bionies of it.

122
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:31.639
It's must do.

123
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.439
If you think about the first Sabbath album, that is

124
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:39.319
the first Doom album right there, clearly, I mean one hundred.

125
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:43.519
I mean, was that in the seventies you had the Beatles,

126
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:48.120
the Doors, I mean, and they just push that fucking

127
00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:52.079
distortion buttons like new others, and they committed to it

128
00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:56.759
and they created a new pause, a new sound, a

129
00:06:56.800 --> 00:06:59.120
new era, a new everything.

130
00:06:59.319 --> 00:06:59.519
Yeah.

131
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:05.399
Yeah, hey, all of us are here at Bloodstock do

132
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:09.120
the Aussie and Black Sabbath, but eximple.

133
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:11.399
That's completely what it is.

134
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:17.480
Exceptions give him the mic. It's the foundation of our

135
00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:18.639
music exactly.

136
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:22.519
We wouldn't even know what this music, about this music

137
00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:23.439
if it weren't for them.

138
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:27.639
For sure, When we perform, we don't like to speak

139
00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:31.439
that much because first we're we don't believe that our

140
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:32.879
English is good or whatever.

141
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:33.160
Us.

142
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:36.600
We're a bit shy and we're not talking a lot

143
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:40.920
to the agents when we start the concert. Then we

144
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:45.839
do our music, music, music, music. And obviously while we

145
00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:49.199
were performing today, we were thinking about Birmingham, when we

146
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:52.600
were thinking about Hosey, we were thinking about all that,

147
00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:54.920
what's this means.

148
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:55.839
To the medical community.

149
00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:59.279
Yeah, but it's not for that, what that we speak

150
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:02.959
to the agents about it because also it's in our position.

151
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:06.600
It's in your mind and a channel to your music.

152
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:08.519
And I really hope your.

153
00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:12.600
Music not a guy talk all the concerts. Oh yeah, music,

154
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:17.240
just the first thing in a concert, not a guy I.

155
00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:20.160
Want told them it went to our mind if when

156
00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:25.519
we started the band, if we were musician artists or nentitainers,

157
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:28.160
and obviously we're not the last one.

158
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:32.919
Well, I'm glad you're here a bloodstuck because we're very badass.

159
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:34.039
Thank you so much.

Michelle Kerr was my press officer for my entire fucking

career here in the UK, my entire career with Machine.

175
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:28.320
She recently passed away and it was a very very

176
00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:31.039
sad day and I can tell you the reason that

177
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:34.960
I'm gonna tell this story is because she was family.

178
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.960
She was Bloodstock family. She was heavy metal UK family.
