PipemanRadio Interviews Ruled By Raptors 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.

Next year is the 25th Anniversary.  Get your tickets now at https://www.bloodstock.uk.com/  #BOA26 6th - 9th August 2026, Catton Park, Derbyshire

This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.199
Man W four c Y Radio and I'm here.

With Matt from Rulebi Raptors and also Will from Chris

6
00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:28.960
Nick from nice here at Bloodstock.

7
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:32.039
Thanks for taking the time man, oh my pleasure. Thanks

8
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:34.799
for being here at Bloodstock. How'd you get here? Anyway?

9
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:36.479
I don't mean how did you get here today?

10
00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:37.880
Not just the van.

11
00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:41.039
We came through the Newcastle Metal to the Masters competition.

12
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:43.159
We played the new Blood stage to day on Sunday

13
00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:46.079
six forty five. We are absolutely thrilled to be here.

14
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:47.159
Wow.

15
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:51.119
Did you even think you were going to win that competition?

16
00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:55.000
Absolutely no, So that at the second time of asking

17
00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:57.119
first year we had a really good run and it

18
00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:00.240
was amazing. We thought we'll come back second time and

19
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:04.719
the competition was insane. The Newcastle's got some amazing bands

20
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:05.760
in the heavy scene right now.

21
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:08.560
So that's why I hear from every one of these

22
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:13.079
mented Masses competitions is like the bands that won, aren't

23
00:01:13.079 --> 00:01:15.879
the ones that think they were never gonna win. But

24
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:20.760
also the camaraderie. It's not a competition. Everybody's rooting for

25
00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:24.079
everybody and telling everybody and saying how great everybody else is.

26
00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:27.400
Absolutely like the scenes are getting more close and before

27
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:28.799
everyone just try to build each other up.

28
00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:29.560
It's beautiful.

29
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:32.159
That's the way it should be, right, Hell yeah, hell yeah,

30
00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:34.519
And that's why you're at blood scot and Bloodstock, because

31
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:35.840
that's what Bloodstock's all about.

32
00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:36.599
One hundred percent.

33
00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:39.159
Everyone here has been so lovely, so friendly, Like the

34
00:01:39.239 --> 00:01:41.120
vibes have been immaculate all weekend.

35
00:01:41.879 --> 00:01:44.359
So I got a funny story for you before we

36
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:48.120
get more into your music, since you're from Newcastle. Okay,

37
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:51.120
So I was married to a British girl. She came

38
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:54.680
over to America before I met her, and she acted

39
00:01:54.760 --> 00:02:00.680
like a total royal spoke the queen's proper English snobby

40
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:05.799
towards Americans. I'm better than you, blah blah blah. Years

41
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:09.000
later I found out where she was from. Can you guess?

42
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:12.400
I'm gonna say suddenly, and just for like commonality, but

43
00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:13.280
is it Newcastle?

44
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:13.879
It is?

45
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:15.800
Hell yeah?

46
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:20.080
And everybody I say that too, that's exactly what you did,

47
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:25.439
not even if they're from Newcastle and laughs.

48
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:29.560
There is no pretense up there, but it is just yeah, no,

49
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:30.800
Queen's English, no nothing.

50
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:33.360
That's probably why she came to our country because she

51
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:34.599
didn't fit in with you, guys.

52
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:36.919
Oh dear, bless her, bless her.

53
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:39.199
I wish they would send her back to you guys.

54
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:44.680
Ahaa. So how would you describe your music?

55
00:02:45.159 --> 00:02:48.680
Not a genre, not a label, not boxing you in,

56
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:51.520
but you, guys, as an artist? How do you feel

57
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:52.439
your music.

58
00:02:52.280 --> 00:03:02.560
Is energetic, cathotic, political, socially conscious and just all around shouty,

59
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:03.439
shouty rah rah.

60
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.280
Let's have some fun kind of music.

61
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:08.719
Fun, that's the key. If you're not having fun in

62
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:10.280
this industry, it's the.

63
00:03:10.039 --> 00:03:12.400
Wrong job, okay, one hundred percent.

64
00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:15.639
Like our live shows, it's just myself and this beautiful

65
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:19.840
bearded man here throwing ourselves at the nearest person. This

66
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:22.840
man's throwing shapes, this man's willing our drum kit. We're

67
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.319
having the best time. That's what we're doing it for.

68
00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:26.520
Oh man, that's what it's about. And when you're having

69
00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:27.879
the best time, so we're.

70
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:28.680
Weird one hundred percent.

71
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:30.439
And that's the key. When I see a band up

72
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:32.599
there that looks like they're not having fun, or like

73
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:35.560
what happened with James addiction, I'm out.

74
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:38.520
We've been close to like tearing each other's heads off,

75
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:41.960
don't get me wrong. Yeah, in a fun, fun way. Yeah, sure,

76
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:43.840
spin kicks in a fun way.

77
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:48.159
Well, yeah, that's fun. Not because you're drunk and an asshole.

78
00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:49.919
Want to punch out your guitarists?

79
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:53.199
No, I mean, I mean, to be fair, I would

80
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:55.199
love to punch out our guitarist.

81
00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:58.800
For yourself, but do that off stage.

82
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:02.159
Oh yeah, yeah exactly. I am a nightmare.

83
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.479
That is where it would because like, how the hell

84
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:08.560
do you guys travel around in a van and not

85
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:09.439
kill each other?

86
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:12.280
That's why I want now to be honest. Actually, we

87
00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:13.360
get on really well.

88
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:15.840
I've been in other bands before this, but we learned

89
00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:18.319
pretty early on that we get along. After we had

90
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:23.079
a really horrendous gig very early days in Liverpool. The

91
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.920
owners told us the loading time and unfortunately the loading

92
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:29.600
time was actually the door opening time and we were

93
00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:31.639
three hours away and we're like, you need to get here,

94
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:35.519
so we rushed over. We hit the Mazy Side Tunnel

95
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:37.800
and ended up going taking like the wrong route and

96
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:40.399
having to come back through the Merseyside Tunnel. Got there,

97
00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:42.360
opened the door, the bass amp fell out of the

98
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:44.720
van on the floor, Matt punched the van.

99
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:46.199
I told Matt I'd punch.

100
00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:49.040
Him if he did it again. He stormed off to

101
00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:50.399
go and get a drink. He says, I'll let you

102
00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:52.920
cool down. We're loaded in and then we had loads

103
00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:57.600
of bother inside Matt's strings, yes, strap.

104
00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:00.639
It was strings, straps and the face of my all

105
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.319
smashed him. Within nine minutes, whoa.

106
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:06.480
And it basically there was loads of things running behind.

107
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:08.279
So we ended up where we got about four or

108
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:10.439
five songs done. We came off stage.

109
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:12.199
We were fed up and we thought, right, we'll take

110
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.959
the gear back to the hotel. We'll come back, and

111
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:16.959
we left. We told the venue and said, look, what

112
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:18.560
could have come back. We're gonna have a few drinks

113
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.399
and just chill out after everything that's gone on. They

114
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:22.920
said no, ba, and we went back to the hotel

115
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:25.399
to find that the train back in Liverpool was off,

116
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:28.360
so we just sat there for it, just just in

117
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:31.480
total dismay, got a Peter, watched some family guy and

118
00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:34.560
then we're back there everybody just getting on again. So

119
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.600
at that point we realized we could pretty much.

120
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:37.240
Go through anything.

121
00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:40.279
Listen, that's the way to experience it in the beginning,

122
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:44.600
because it's like dating. I tell women, I want to

123
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:47.680
know your worst habits. I want to know the worst

124
00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:49.399
part of you, because if I could deal with that,

125
00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:50.639
then I could deal with every day.

126
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:51.319
Yeah.

127
00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:54.199
Absolutely, No, I mean we all know each other's eccentricities

128
00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:58.399
as well. I mean we're all neurodivergent in some different ways,

129
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.759
and I think we're all quite tolerant of like the

130
00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:03.519
sort of eccentricities of each other.

131
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:05.199
And that's the main thing.

132
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:07.759
It is like dating three other people that you don't

133
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:10.439
want to be in a relationship.

134
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:14.439
With, right, right, And it is important to know all

135
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:17.920
those things. I guess then you can be tolerant.

136
00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:18.279
Yeah.

137
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:22.399
Understanding, Yeah, I suppose it's a bit like the whole

138
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.360
couple psychiatry thing, where you have to be understanding of

139
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:29.040
someone else's position when you look and go why doing that?

140
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:32.560
But that's and I think we're pretty good at that.

141
00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:35.199
I think we're in age. This band's probably the band

142
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:38.680
I've been in the longest where I'm happy with.

143
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:39.920
Everybody that's in the band.

144
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:42.759
You always have somebody that you sit there and you go, oh,

145
00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:44.360
for God's sake, are you doing this again?

146
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:45.800
You know, But it's.

147
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:49.000
Hard to have in the chemistry again for sure, Like

148
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:51.759
it's probably one of the most difficult things to being

149
00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:54.639
a musician, like your people.

150
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:56.800
If you don't get on, you won't vibe well on

151
00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.639
stage as well. You'll end it with an Oasis situation.

152
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:00.720
But that sort of thing.

153
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:03.639
So that's going back there what Matt said about us

154
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:06.480
being on stage. We've always said when we when you

155
00:07:06.560 --> 00:07:09.399
say like Oasis and stuff like that, they just stand

156
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:12.079
there on stage. And if you're not moving around and

157
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:14.720
enjoying things on stage, why would the audience enjoy it?

158
00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:17.959
And to Ethos, that's the way I look at you.

159
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:21.040
And what do you think? How long is this reunion

160
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:21.759
gonna last?

161
00:07:22.360 --> 00:07:23.199
Yeah?

162
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:29.439
No, I mean the Oasis reunion. I mayn't even think

163
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.279
it would start to be honest.

164
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:35.519
Totally until the money drives up. I think that's about it. Yeah,

165
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:37.279
they're very much an edit for the money.

166
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:39.399
I don't know. I would never have a band with

167
00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:41.240
any of my siblings. I'd kill them.

168
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:43.319
I'm in a band with my wife's brother.

169
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:47.600
That's interesting because occasionally he forgets that it's his sister.

170
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.759
When guys talk guys stuff, it's like, yeah, that's your system.

171
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:52.000
Man.

172
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:55.839
Oh man, that's funny. That is a hard one right

173
00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:56.360
there too.

174
00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:57.439
I don't know.

175
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.759
I I think I would prefer brother law than a

176
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:03.000
brother in my bam.

177
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:05.480
My wife says she's a little worried that he's closer

178
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:07.279
to me than he is to hear now.

179
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:14.839
Right exactly, And okay, you mentioned political Jesus Christ. I

180
00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:17.519
can't believe in twenty twenty five you have more to

181
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:20.759
talk about politically in songs than you did in the eighties.

182
00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:24.560
So Chris is a vocalist, olericist, and he writes from

183
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.040
his political standpoint, well on board with that. And then

184
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:31.639
there's occasions in a lyrics which are a sort of

185
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.720
premonitions which keep happening, like like we write about this

186
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:42.360
tyrannical this fascist regime, it's horrendous oppression, And then I sure.

187
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:43.720
Are you talking about my country?

188
00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:46.720
Like no, no, yeah, no, but we wrote about that

189
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:48.080
years ago and it keeps happening.

190
00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:49.399
It's just getting worse.

191
00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:50.279
Yeah, no doubt.

192
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.159
Hey, at least we've got a well of inspiration to

193
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:53.200
draw from these days.

194
00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:56.919
Unfortunately, Well, it's one thing in my country that got

195
00:08:56.960 --> 00:08:59.279
elected the first time, But how the fuck do you

196
00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:00.720
elect them this second time?

197
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:03.759
I don't get it. Oh, Jesus Christ.

198
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:06.320
I'm in no position to speak on American politics, but

199
00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:09.039
my god, what have they done?

200
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:15.039
I mean, like, come on, I forget everything else. Why

201
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:17.360
the fuck are we electing an eighty year old? That's

202
00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:18.200
what I want to know.

203
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:21.279
They don't trust the young, they don't trust women, and

204
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:23.519
they don't trust anyone outside of an old white.

205
00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:26.639
Dude, no doubt. My daughter has said to me. I'm

206
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:30.679
very proud my youngest daughter. She has said to me, Dad,

207
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:34.320
thank god you're not an old white dude.

208
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:40.360
Oh man, it'll come to us all eventually, I know.

209
00:09:40.440 --> 00:09:45.440
Right, Oh maya. But yeah, So what do we expect

210
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:46.759
from your live show?

211
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:52.919
Okay, okay, energy first and foremost. From minute one to

212
00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:56.720
minute zero point with thirty, I've lost my voice, I've

213
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:01.759
lost whatever I've got. Minute thirty, expect energy. Expect movement.

214
00:10:02.120 --> 00:10:07.240
Expect volumetric air, movement of the highest level.

215
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:07.879
Where loud.

216
00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:12.679
We're fun, without dance, without a mosh, without have a bear.

217
00:10:12.799 --> 00:10:16.799
Release that terrible, terrible world that was somehow inhabits still.

218
00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:19.960
Oh it's unbelievable, But thank god we have bands like

219
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:24.360
you that can spread a message of positivity and uniting and.

220
00:10:25.039 --> 00:10:27.320
One hundred amount the rest of these people.

221
00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:31.200
Jesus Christ. I do want to say, I understand you

222
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:33.840
losing your voice because you're the vocalist. Wait, you're not

223
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:38.080
the vocalist. Why the fuck are you losing your voice.

224
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.120
Because it's a festival. I've smoked too much.

225
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:43.480
Oh yeah, well that's not good. No, and that's at

226
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:44.600
festival dust.

227
00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:49.879
It's ah the pit Dustrial Kubla Cord was insane. Yeah, honestly,

228
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:51.720
I thought it was an Arizona or something. Those mad

229
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:52.919
Oh my god.

230
00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:55.000
And how about Machinehead?

231
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:59.639
Honestly, I say, I mean I saw machine Heads two

232
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:01.320
thou in nine was Slipknot.

233
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:03.960
Yeah, and they were insane.

234
00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:06.720
And obviously it's paying god boys last sixteen years now

235
00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:09.799
since I've seen them absolutely blew me away one hundred percent.

236
00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:12.799
I was in the pit last night and there came

237
00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:16.200
a point that if you wanted out, you weren't getting out.

238
00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:18.919
Yeah. It was yeah, it was like the gulag down there. Man.

239
00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:19.840
It looked insane.

240
00:11:19.960 --> 00:11:22.840
Oh yeah, it totally was. But it was a lot

241
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:23.240
of fun.

242
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:25.159
Hell yeah, man, hell yeah.

243
00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:27.720
So what else you got going on after Bloodstock?

244
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:30.240
So we got a couple of runs of gigs. We

245
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.720
are playing a slighter run around the vague North. We've

246
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:37.480
got a whole Blackpool and white Haven in September, and

247
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:40.600
then we're going down south of November. We'll go to Swindon,

248
00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:43.720
Leicester and Sheltenham and then a couple of days of

249
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:46.320
Newcastle just around things out for the year. We're playing

250
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:49.200
a show at the Grove in Newcastle and Biker if

251
00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:54.159
anybody gets that reference on Saturday, sixteenth week yesterday, so

252
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:55.080
that's gonna be a lot of fun.

253
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:55.840
I love that venue.

254
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:58.759
Nice and tell everybody how they can reach out to

255
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:01.600
your soul on your souls on the web and most

256
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:04.320
importantly by your merch. Kids. They can't listen to my

257
00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:05.519
show unless say buy your.

258
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:07.080
Merch absolutely one hundred percent.

259
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:11.200
We are at ruled by Raptors on every platform, and

260
00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:13.919
then we have a Shopify, we have band Camp, God

261
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:15.440
blessed band Camp, all of that thing.

262
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:17.320
I'm going to hand the mic to Chris for a sec.

263
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:20.919
You can get our merch on Spotify because apparently you

264
00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:23.200
can order that there. There's a Shopify account on there.

265
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:26.720
We also have it's rule biraptors dot band camp dot

266
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:29.720
com for the metch and our link tree is link

267
00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:33.799
tr dot ee, fort slash rule by raptors that has

268
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:36.679
links to everything, including our bands in town account where

269
00:12:36.679 --> 00:12:37.840
you can see where we're playing next.

270
00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:40.399
I think we would be better off, at least in

271
00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:43.720
my country if we were ruled by raptors. Unfortunately, it

272
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:44.919
would be nicer.

273
00:12:44.759 --> 00:12:45.320
To be honest.

274
00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:48.519
Actually, the name is about it's all of your military

275
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:50.879
and a lot of your government agencies. They have birds

276
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:54.279
of prey as the imagery like the US military and

277
00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:56.720
even going back far at like World War two where

278
00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:58.679
you have the Nazis had the same sort of imagery

279
00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:01.000
as well. That it's actually sort of a put on

280
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:02.679
the web being ruled by the fascists.

281
00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:06.919
That's right, figured that. Yeah, and that's why I think

282
00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:11.720
we're better off because I think at leavest my government

283
00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:15.879
I heard yours isn't much better lately. They're worse than raptors. Yeah,

284
00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:22.440
I really want to rossturs rex to eat them, bring

285
00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:25.679
them back. Let's create Jurassic Park to take out all governments.

286
00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:30.480

00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:40.039
Michelle Kerr was my press officer for my entire fucking

290
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:45.840
career here in the UK, my entire career with Machine.

291
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:50.000
She recently passed away and it was a very, very

292
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:52.720
sad day. And I can tell you the reason that

293
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:57.159
I'm gonna tell this story because she was family. She

294
00:13:57.399 --> 00:14:04.080
was Bloodstock family. She was head metal UK family. Most

295
00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:07.600

She helped lift everybody up. Man. She helped lift everybody up,

300
00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:28.919
and in so many ways, she helped make this entire

301
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:33.440
music scene, this incredible, beautiful community that lives here at

302
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.480
Bloodstock Man she helped make it.

303
00:14:36.679 --> 00:14:37.320
