pipe Man W four c Y Radio
And I'm here with Shane Told from Silverstein
7
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.079
here at Riot Fast. Yeah.
I love it. I love it.
8
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:04.000
It's great. We got a very
loud band behind us, but it's the
9
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:07.280
Breeders, so I'm not that mad. I love the Breeders. And then
10
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.640
this is like throwing back to my
youth in the nineties, you know.
11
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:14.560
And they'll be in a background music
for your interview. That's cool. I
12
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:18.879
love it. How much do you
love riot Fest? Though? I think
13
00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:23.040
it's one of, if not the
best festival in the world, and we
14
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.400
have done all the big ones.
It is awesome. People come from all
15
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:30.719
over for this thing. They do
such a great job. And I think
16
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:37.239
for me musically, it's like it
hits me where I need to be hit,
17
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:42.200
you know, like like I love
punk and rock and alternative and hardcore.
18
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:45.879
So this works, you know,
like this isn't one of the festivals
19
00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:48.200
that's like, oh, it's a
big rock festival. And then there's like
20
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:51.400
a stage where that has a bunch
of like electronic music or something like.
21
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.840
They don't really do that here,
And for me, that's what I like
22
00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:59.319
because I'm you know, I grew
up with punk rock and and nineties stuff
23
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:01.560
and that's you know, that's what
I love. Yeah, I definitely dig
24
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:05.680
the vibe here. And I know
what you're saying because I do coverage.
25
00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:08.960
Had a lot of festivals and it
is weird, like what I was doing
26
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:15.759
last week that I won't talk about, but it's like they had hip hop,
27
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:20.360
like a lot of it, Like
you usually have like one hip hop
28
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:23.840
bad but they had like a whole
lot of it, at least metal heads
29
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:30.240
sitting there dancing the hip hop while
slip knots playing on spage And I'm like
30
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.719
scratching my head a little bit.
But you know, it's cool to blend
31
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:38.120
the genres, but I like to
community vibe where all the same don't get
32
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:40.680
don't yeah exactly, don't get me
wrong, Like I have no problem with
33
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:46.439
diversity in different lamps and stuff.
But I think riot Fish just does what
34
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:49.680
I want for because I was,
you know, if I was paying money
35
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:53.199
to be here, which I would
if I wasn't playing, you know,
36
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:58.000
I would definitely be buying a ticket
first in line. But you know,
37
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:01.120
they're just what I want, you
know. It's like, I don't want
38
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:05.639
to go to a festival and like
only care about half the bands. That's
39
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:08.240
just my personal opinion. But they
do an amazing job here and it's a
40
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.120
it's fun, great setup too,
Like they still have huge stages, but
41
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:17.439
everything's pretty compact, you know,
and it's yeah, it's it's great.
42
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:22.520
My photographer and I were talking about
that walking in today. It's like,
43
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.319
it's so nice to come in on
the first day and know exactly where the
44
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:30.840
media tent is because every other festival, every year it's like, okay,
45
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.000
I gotta search for me at ten
and you ask everybody. Nobody knows where
46
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:38.599
I know. So it's cool to
come back and though, Okay, this
47
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:42.039
is here, this is here,
and you know it's it's like all exactly
48
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.159
the way you remember a hundred percent. No, I know, it's it's
49
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:47.080
they do a great job here,
just through and through. I's there a
50
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:52.960
band playing here at riot Fest that
you guys have not played with, not
51
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:57.159
played with like anywhere else. Oh
man, that's you know, no,
52
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:00.240
probably a lot though. I mean, if I really went through there's I
53
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:02.280
mean there's bands I've never heard of, and you know that's that's great.
54
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:05.680
You know, I like love that
they're giving some fresh some fresh blood.
55
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:10.879
There's a band that played right before
us called the Res. Never heard of
56
00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:13.639
them. They were awesome, you
know. So it's like, I think
57
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:16.040
it's important. You know, there's
like great bands and punk rock and other
58
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:20.439
styles of music that are killing it
and are newer bands that maybe I'm not
59
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.720
that familiar with, and I think
that that's awesome. Like let's let's keep
60
00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:28.639
the keep it fresh. But of
course, like we got the food Fighters,
61
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:31.000
Turn Style is a band making huge
ways in the last few years,
62
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:36.240
say anything, a band I absolutely
love too, you know kind of boom
63
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:41.319
back to back to back to close
out tonight. That's just the first day.
64
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:45.040
So you know, all the other
stuff happening here, it's just it's
65
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.439
I can't wait. It's beautiful bungle. Yeah. I've been seeing so I've
66
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:55.519
been seeing footage of on like Instagram
and stuff of people recording because they are
67
00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:58.759
on tour right now doing some stuff
leading up to it, and it's going
68
00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:02.079
to be a trip. Dude,
dude, Mike Patton, Oh my god,
69
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:05.720
what a guy legend. Oh amazing, unbelievable, you know. And
70
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:12.519
it's like, I'm from the eighties
of the whole thrash metal scene, and
71
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:15.279
like, that's one thing I love
about RIOFS two. When I was in
72
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:18.319
the eights, I loved punk.
I couldn't go to a punk show why
73
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:21.439
because I had long hair. It
was fucking stupid. It's crazy, right,
74
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:25.720
you know, And they couldn't come
to our shows. It was like,
75
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:29.240
are you fucking Kimy. We're both
the groups are getting our ass was
76
00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:32.040
kicked by the jocks in school.
We should have teamed up together instead of
77
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:36.519
fighting each other. It's like,
let's all be together. It's crazy because,
78
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:41.680
like I hear about that stuff.
You grew up in Chicago. Actually
79
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:45.759
I moved to LA in the eighties, so I was there for that whole
80
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:50.560
scene. That's the Metallica's first show
ever, Slayer's first show ever, Motley
81
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:56.360
Crew when their first shows ever.
So I say, you know, if
82
00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:59.759
Metallica was always an interesting one though, because they were like obviously a metal
83
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:01.120
band, look at their name,
and they had long hair, but they
84
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:05.639
were always repping like Dead Kennedy's and
like, that's part of how I got
85
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:10.680
into punk was from Metallica, the
first one of the first bands ever heard
86
00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:15.319
covering all these punk songs, right, you know, whether it was Misfits
87
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:18.439
or uh, you know whatever.
You know, So it's kind of kind
88
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:23.800
of crazy. Did you see the
video of Jerry Only saying that Cliff Burton
89
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:29.000
was one of their biggest promoters of
their band, Like he's like given Cliff
90
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:34.199
Burton the basis of Metallica credits for
Misfits being popular. I mean the Misfits.
91
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:38.240
I heard about the Misfits three Metallica, and I mean I was see
92
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:42.079
I'm I'm I'm born in nineteen eighty
one, so I'm a lot younger than
93
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:45.480
you, I'm sure, but like, yeah, for me hearing about Metallica
94
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:50.040
around the early nineties, you know, around around when the Black album came
95
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.519
out, so you know, obviously
Cliff had already passed, but like I
96
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:57.439
saw the photos and everything, and
yeah, they were wearing a Misfits shit
97
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:00.879
and yeah, die die my darling, they covered that, right, So
98
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.920
no, you're right, it's but
I didn't realize. I've heard the stories
99
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:08.199
about like the long hair thing,
I didn't really realize that it was that
100
00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:11.120
much of a thing. Like you're
gonna actually get your ass kicked. I
101
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:15.399
tell you a story that happened to
me. So I wanted to get my
102
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.879
spikes at this place on Melrose called
Posers. It was a famous punk place.
103
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:24.360
I know it. In fact,
I heard about it recently because I
104
00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:27.680
was at the Punk Rock Museum in
Las Vegas. I was doing some tours
105
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:33.319
and Darby Crash. They have his
little book of like phone numbers, his
106
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:38.720
little rolodex and it says poser and
it has the phone number. And at
107
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:41.680
first everybody's like, oh this they
didn't like. So he didn't like this
108
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:44.279
guy, so he put him in
his and his Roodex as a poser.
109
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:45.959
And then I was like, no, no, no. That was a
110
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:48.399
store in La Yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah. So I went there with
111
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.800
a couple of my punk friends because
you couldn't go there as a metal head
112
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:58.560
alone. And I walk in and
like literally sixty seconds later, my friends
113
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:01.399
are like and they knew the owners. They're like, we have to leave,
114
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:05.480
and I'm like why, I'll tell
you, but we need to leave
115
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:09.120
right now. And we walk outside, like, yeah, the owners came
116
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:11.519
up to me and because we're friends
with them, they gave a little respect
117
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:15.759
and let us take you out of
there because they were going to kick the
118
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:20.639
shit out of you because you had
long hair. Insane? Was the world
119
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.680
that insane? That's so crazy,
man, that's kind of awful. Honestly,
120
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:30.040
it is so. I was also
at the first ever crossover show with
121
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:33.480
punk and metal for the first time. Yeah, it was in the Sun
122
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:39.960
Valley Sportsman's Lodge. It was a
fucking elks lodge with no security. First
123
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.559
time metal had some punks in the
same building. You can imagine how crazy
124
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:50.559
that show was. Cooc when they
have hardcore punk or pepper Suicidal before they
125
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.639
crossed over. I don't remember who
the third punk bands metal bands were Possessed,
126
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:01.720
Dark Angel and this band Savage Grace
is absolute fucking mayhem. One of
127
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.960
the best memories of my life,
Like crazy, such a crazy show.
128
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.480
Do you know what year that was, because that seems like a really important
129
00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.480
like I think it was about eighty
three. Yeah, and I interviewed both
130
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:20.159
Woody I'm separate interviews. Woody and
Mike from coc I brought up the story.
131
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.159
I'm like, you probably don't remember
this, and I started talking about
132
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:26.559
that was like at an Elks lodge, right, yeah, that was our
133
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:31.799
most epic show ever, you know, and it's like, it's so cool
134
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:35.159
to think your teenager are going to
ship, but the band that was actually
135
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:39.279
playing there thinks it's epic. Two
if totally right, totally, But I
136
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.399
mean when you look at the history
of it, and I'm sure that they
137
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:45.360
look back at it and they're they're
probably like shaking their heads too, like
138
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:48.799
can't, can't. It's almost doesn't
feel real, I guess right now because
139
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.360
everything now it's like everyone we're so
accepting of everything, you know, it's
140
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:58.080
like crazy. That's like last year
at Hellfest, I was at my first
141
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:01.600
Discharge show in my whole life because
I couldn't go to one back then.
142
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.799
Yeah, and then I and I
interviewed them. We were talking about it,
143
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:09.120
and even they were like, yeah, that was pretty fucked up back
144
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.600
then, like it was just stupid, Like why not be all? Now
145
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:16.600
we're all big family, That's the
way it should have always been. Man
146
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:20.519
unite and be one. We're all
in that same boat. So wow.
147
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:26.320
All that so wow? So what
else you got going on after Riots Us?
148
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.360
Well, we're flying. We fly
tomorrow to Massachusetts to do a festival
149
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:35.559
out there. Massachusetts is for lovers, so that'll be a lot of fun
150
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:41.799
with some of our best friends like
bas uh sorry actually Based it's not playing
151
00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:46.279
Hawthorn Heights, Emory Uh, Further
Teams Forever, so a lot of bands
152
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.480
that we came up with. It's
really really, really fun. And then
153
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:54.480
after that we're heading over to Asia
and Australia. We do some shows with
154
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:58.679
The Emity Affliction in Australia, which
will be really cool because they're massive over
155
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:03.200
there. And then that brings us
into another US tour November December, where
156
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:09.159
we're doing our sixth album, This
is How the Wind Shifts in full So
157
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:11.799
I love celebrating ten years of that. How do people check out all the
158
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:16.080
tour dates, the new album by
your merch all that good stuff. Yeah,
159
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:20.360
just go to the Google I guess
Silverstein and Ad'll probably it's probably the
160
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.679
best way. We have a website, a silver Sin music dot com.
161
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:28.080
I don't know. We're on social
media, well you'll find us. Crazy
162
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.080
is it's so easy to find everything
you know, no doubt. It's not
163
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.440
like the old dates where we like, you know how I got found out
164
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:37.080
about bands. This will trip you
out. There was this record store in
165
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:41.840
the valley called OZ Records. There
was this store clerk there, not even
166
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:46.639
the manager, he was just a
store clerk. His name was Brian Slagel.
167
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.879
You know who that is Metal Blade? Yeah, right, the beginning
168
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.279
of Metal Blade. So we used
to walk in there. I told him
169
00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:56.480
a few years ago we were hanging
out. I'm like, I was so
170
00:11:56.759 --> 00:11:58.360
genius what you fucking did because we
used to walk in there, and he's
171
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:01.679
like, hey, this band out
because you gotta listens shit Like now,
172
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.120
okay, hey go to this band
at the Troubadour. They're gonna they're gonna
173
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:11.799
kick ass. And that's how we
found out about our music, from going
174
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:16.759
to this record store and the dude
owning Metal Lake, never knowing that would
175
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:20.720
be around today, right saying here
here here it was in Gene. I
176
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:24.559
love it, man. It's it's
the people that care the most, the
177
00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:28.360
real fans that end up doing the
most important stuff in the industry. It's
178
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:33.200
really how it works. True story, craziest story ever in your musical journey.
179
00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:37.360
What is it my craziest story?
Yeah, yours? Oh my god,
180
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.200
dude, that's a hard question,
right, that's a really hard question.
181
00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:46.320
I don't even know where to start. I mean, bat landed on
182
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.440
my face one time. Well,
I was sleeping at a kid's house.
183
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.080
Wow, that's a NAUSI moment right
there. I didn't take a bite out
184
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:54.120
of it. No, I got
the funk out of there. I went
185
00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:56.919
and slept in the van. That's
a that's a favorite. That's one of
186
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.480
my favorite stories. But one time
too, we also were staying at a
187
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:07.360
kid's house. This is in La
at Los Angeles Sound in California, maybe
188
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.240
it was Orange County and h this
guy's like, yeah, you can stay
189
00:13:09.240 --> 00:13:13.279
at my house. Cool. So
we got there, really nice house,
190
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:18.440
and we found out very shortly after
that it wasn't his house. It was
191
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:22.159
his neighbor's house and they were out
of town. Whoa, So we were
192
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:28.080
breaking into his neighbor's house. Then
he decided, as he thought this would
193
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.480
impress us, He's like, I
got a cool trick, Like all right,
194
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:39.559
pulled down his pants and lit his
genitals on fire. Holy fuck,
195
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:41.919
What the kind of drugs was he
was? I think he was sober too
196
00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:46.279
at the time, which is wild. And uh, you know what what
197
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:50.960
I remember most about that is the
smell turns out fiery balls don't smell so
198
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.120
good. Now. Yeah, it
was really weird. And then we don't
199
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.960
know what to do. A couple
of people want and slept in the van.
200
00:13:56.200 --> 00:14:01.480
I slept like in some child room, I guess. And then at
201
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.720
seven o'clock we got I got hear
a bang on the door. We gotta
202
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.600
go. They're coming back, Like
what I didn't even know it was at
203
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.720
that time time, I didn't even
know. We weren't supposed to be there.
204
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:16.840
I thought it was like I thought
it was his house. That's so
205
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.000
old school punk rock though, Like
there were places in La we're all the
206
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:24.360
homeless punks. There was a hotel
that was a bandon called it used to
207
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:30.399
be I guess when it was alive
Hotel Hello, but the o wis gone,
208
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:35.039
so it was Hotel Hell or Motel
Hell, and all the homeless punks
209
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:39.159
lived there. Yeah, like even
like the Go Goes when they were punk,
210
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:43.240
like when they first started they were
like hardcore punk, yeah, you
211
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.120
know, and bands like that,
all those bands, they just that's where
212
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.559
they lived. It's a band in
motel in Hollywood. Yeah, man,
213
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:52.000
no, we we had a lot
of a lot of those moments in the
214
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:56.120
early days of like we're not are
you kidding me? We don't have forty
215
00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:58.559
bucks for a motel, right,
who's got a floor? You know?
216
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:03.679
And that was me and that made
for some of the best stories. Uh.
217
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:05.759
I don't think I can go back
to that, but yeah, exactly,
218
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.720
but those are those are the times. But that's how you get to
219
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:11.919
hear you know, you have to
go pass that to get to hear.
220
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:18.399
Absolutely any last words you want to
leave with the listeners that we haven't covered
221
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:20.919
already, not really stay safe,
to take care of each other out there,
222
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:24.200
you know, be good, call
your mom, U, eat your
223
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:28.080
vegetables, you know, all that
good stuff. Yeah. I don't know
224
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:31.279
if you uh, if you're interested
in want to do, check out my
225
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.720
band Silverstein, and also check out
my podcast Lead Singer Syndrome, where I
226
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.840
talked to other lead singers, probably
very similar to your show, but just
227
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:43.159
lead singer on lead singer. That's
my that's my premise. That's pretty cool.
228
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:46.399
I like that. Who was your
favorite interview? Oh that's tough.
229
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.279
I've be done over three hundred.
Yeah, So you know, I think
230
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:54.200
I had Dennis Lickxon from Refused.
I saw him walking around here. He
231
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:58.159
was a great, great interview.
I had d Snyder uh hed. He
232
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:00.840
speaks his mind, that's for sure. But man, it's hard. It's
233
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:04.799
hard to pick a favorite. I
appreciate every person that's that's done my show.
234
00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:10.120
I hear you because I've I did
an interview last weekend. That's somebody.
235
00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:12.759
He decided to interview me and he
asked me that question. I'm like,
236
00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:18.480
I've done almost three thousand interviews.
I three came and pick one,
237
00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.039
you know, and it's like,
I can't even pick one. I don't
238
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:25.039
know. I can tell you the
worst, which I won't tell you,
239
00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:27.720
but I can tell but I can't
tell you the best, my my worst.
240
00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:30.879
This is a great story. You're
gonna love this. So I have
241
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:33.600
a recorder. You had a task
am, I got a zoom. So
242
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:38.000
look at this ship too. This
shit's like a whole fucking daw And no,
243
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:41.559
I know, I know that that's
great. My zoom is similar.
244
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:45.200
But so I see that you hit
the record button. Congratulations. Right.
245
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:49.039
I was doing an interview one time
and this this guy sucked. Man,
246
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.799
I was like, I was,
I was supposed to do forty five minutes
247
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:55.960
with him. I was about seven
minutes in and he's just stonewalling me,
248
00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:59.360
like just not give me one more
responses, and I'm like, I don't
249
00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:00.600
know how I'm gonna get through this. I think I know who that is.
250
00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:04.720
So then I get I finally I
get, I get through about thirty
251
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:07.920
two minutes and I and I go
and I go, man, that was
252
00:17:07.960 --> 00:17:11.559
awful. I don't even want to
release this. And I go to hit
253
00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:17.119
my stop button on my recorder and
I had never hit record, and I
254
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:19.240
was like wow. I was like, that's that's I don't believe in God
255
00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:22.559
or anything, but hey, that
that is intervention right there, because like
256
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:26.319
I don't have to release this ever. Thank god. You know, that
257
00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:30.039
made my decision easy because yeah,
it's old. And that's the only time
258
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:33.480
I ever forgot didn't forgot to hit
the record button. I just three thousands.
259
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:37.640
He's probably hit it once, probably
forgotten once or twice. No,
260
00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:40.880
you know what, Yes, but
you know what was the worst because that's
261
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:42.920
a big fear of mine. Like
if you notice, I keep looking to
262
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:45.960
make sure it's still record. Yeah, you know, I like I'm like
263
00:17:47.160 --> 00:17:52.400
paratlid about The worst was I was
on a golf cart going to interview Rob
264
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:57.480
Zombie and while it's on the golf
cart holding the task, and I hit
265
00:17:57.640 --> 00:18:03.359
a button or something and it changed
all the fucking settings and I had like
266
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:07.359
a five minute interview, like that's
all I had, and I'm trying to
267
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.079
figure out on the golf cart I

00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.079
here at Riot Fast. Yeah.
I love it. I love it.
8
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:04.000
It's great. We got a very
loud band behind us, but it's the
9
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:07.280
Breeders, so I'm not that mad. I love the Breeders. And then
10
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.640
this is like throwing back to my
youth in the nineties, you know.
11
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:14.560
And they'll be in a background music
for your interview. That's cool. I
12
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:18.879
love it. How much do you
love riot Fest? Though? I think
13
00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:23.040
it's one of, if not the
best festival in the world, and we
14
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.400
have done all the big ones.
It is awesome. People come from all
15
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:30.719
over for this thing. They do
such a great job. And I think
16
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:37.239
for me musically, it's like it
hits me where I need to be hit,
17
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:42.200
you know, like like I love
punk and rock and alternative and hardcore.
18
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:45.879
So this works, you know,
like this isn't one of the festivals
19
00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:48.200
that's like, oh, it's a
big rock festival. And then there's like
20
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:51.400
a stage where that has a bunch
of like electronic music or something like.
21
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.840
They don't really do that here,
And for me, that's what I like
22
00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:59.319
because I'm you know, I grew
up with punk rock and and nineties stuff
23
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:01.560
and that's you know, that's what
I love. Yeah, I definitely dig
24
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:05.680
the vibe here. And I know
what you're saying because I do coverage.
25
00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:08.960
Had a lot of festivals and it
is weird, like what I was doing
26
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:15.759
last week that I won't talk about, but it's like they had hip hop,
27
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:20.360
like a lot of it, Like
you usually have like one hip hop
28
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:23.840
bad but they had like a whole
lot of it, at least metal heads
29
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:30.240
sitting there dancing the hip hop while
slip knots playing on spage And I'm like
30
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.719
scratching my head a little bit.
But you know, it's cool to blend
31
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:38.120
the genres, but I like to
community vibe where all the same don't get
32
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:40.680
don't yeah exactly, don't get me
wrong, Like I have no problem with
33
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:46.439
diversity in different lamps and stuff.
But I think riot Fish just does what
34
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:49.680
I want for because I was,
you know, if I was paying money
35
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:53.199
to be here, which I would
if I wasn't playing, you know,
36
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:58.000
I would definitely be buying a ticket
first in line. But you know,
37
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:01.120
they're just what I want, you
know. It's like, I don't want
38
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:05.639
to go to a festival and like
only care about half the bands. That's
39
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:08.240
just my personal opinion. But they
do an amazing job here and it's a
40
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.120
it's fun, great setup too,
Like they still have huge stages, but
41
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:17.439
everything's pretty compact, you know,
and it's yeah, it's it's great.
42
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:22.520
My photographer and I were talking about
that walking in today. It's like,
43
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.319
it's so nice to come in on
the first day and know exactly where the
44
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:30.840
media tent is because every other festival, every year it's like, okay,
45
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.000
I gotta search for me at ten
and you ask everybody. Nobody knows where
46
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:38.599
I know. So it's cool to
come back and though, Okay, this
47
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:42.039
is here, this is here,
and you know it's it's like all exactly
48
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.159
the way you remember a hundred percent. No, I know, it's it's
49
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:47.080
they do a great job here,
just through and through. I's there a
50
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:52.960
band playing here at riot Fest that
you guys have not played with, not
51
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:57.159
played with like anywhere else. Oh
man, that's you know, no,
52
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:00.240
probably a lot though. I mean, if I really went through there's I
53
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:02.280
mean there's bands I've never heard of, and you know that's that's great.
54
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:05.680
You know, I like love that
they're giving some fresh some fresh blood.
55
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:10.879
There's a band that played right before
us called the Res. Never heard of
56
00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:13.639
them. They were awesome, you
know. So it's like, I think
57
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:16.040
it's important. You know, there's
like great bands and punk rock and other
58
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:20.439
styles of music that are killing it
and are newer bands that maybe I'm not
59
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.720
that familiar with, and I think
that that's awesome. Like let's let's keep
60
00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:28.639
the keep it fresh. But of
course, like we got the food Fighters,
61
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:31.000
Turn Style is a band making huge
ways in the last few years,
62
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:36.240
say anything, a band I absolutely
love too, you know kind of boom
63
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:41.319
back to back to back to close
out tonight. That's just the first day.
64
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:45.040
So you know, all the other
stuff happening here, it's just it's
65
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.439
I can't wait. It's beautiful bungle. Yeah. I've been seeing so I've
66
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:55.519
been seeing footage of on like Instagram
and stuff of people recording because they are
67
00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:58.759
on tour right now doing some stuff
leading up to it, and it's going
68
00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:02.079
to be a trip. Dude,
dude, Mike Patton, Oh my god,
69
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:05.720
what a guy legend. Oh amazing, unbelievable, you know. And
70
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:12.519
it's like, I'm from the eighties
of the whole thrash metal scene, and
71
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:15.279
like, that's one thing I love
about RIOFS two. When I was in
72
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:18.319
the eights, I loved punk.
I couldn't go to a punk show why
73
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:21.439
because I had long hair. It
was fucking stupid. It's crazy, right,
74
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:25.720
you know, And they couldn't come
to our shows. It was like,
75
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:29.240
are you fucking Kimy. We're both
the groups are getting our ass was
76
00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:32.040
kicked by the jocks in school.
We should have teamed up together instead of
77
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:36.519
fighting each other. It's like,
let's all be together. It's crazy because,
78
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:41.680
like I hear about that stuff.
You grew up in Chicago. Actually
79
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:45.759
I moved to LA in the eighties, so I was there for that whole
80
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:50.560
scene. That's the Metallica's first show
ever, Slayer's first show ever, Motley
81
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:56.360
Crew when their first shows ever.
So I say, you know, if
82
00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:59.759
Metallica was always an interesting one though, because they were like obviously a metal
83
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:01.120
band, look at their name,
and they had long hair, but they
84
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:05.639
were always repping like Dead Kennedy's and
like, that's part of how I got
85
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:10.680
into punk was from Metallica, the
first one of the first bands ever heard
86
00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:15.319
covering all these punk songs, right, you know, whether it was Misfits
87
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:18.439
or uh, you know whatever.
You know, So it's kind of kind
88
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:23.800
of crazy. Did you see the
video of Jerry Only saying that Cliff Burton
89
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:29.000
was one of their biggest promoters of
their band, Like he's like given Cliff
90
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:34.199
Burton the basis of Metallica credits for
Misfits being popular. I mean the Misfits.
91
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:38.240
I heard about the Misfits three Metallica, and I mean I was see
92
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:42.079
I'm I'm I'm born in nineteen eighty
one, so I'm a lot younger than
93
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:45.480
you, I'm sure, but like, yeah, for me hearing about Metallica
94
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:50.040
around the early nineties, you know, around around when the Black album came
95
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.519
out, so you know, obviously
Cliff had already passed, but like I
96
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:57.439
saw the photos and everything, and
yeah, they were wearing a Misfits shit
97
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:00.879
and yeah, die die my darling, they covered that, right, So
98
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.920
no, you're right, it's but
I didn't realize. I've heard the stories
99
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:08.199
about like the long hair thing,
I didn't really realize that it was that
100
00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:11.120
much of a thing. Like you're
gonna actually get your ass kicked. I
101
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:15.399
tell you a story that happened to
me. So I wanted to get my
102
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.879
spikes at this place on Melrose called
Posers. It was a famous punk place.
103
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:24.360
I know it. In fact,
I heard about it recently because I
104
00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:27.680
was at the Punk Rock Museum in
Las Vegas. I was doing some tours
105
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:33.319
and Darby Crash. They have his
little book of like phone numbers, his
106
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:38.720
little rolodex and it says poser and
it has the phone number. And at
107
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:41.680
first everybody's like, oh this they
didn't like. So he didn't like this
108
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:44.279
guy, so he put him in
his and his Roodex as a poser.
109
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:45.959
And then I was like, no, no, no. That was a
110
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:48.399
store in La Yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah. So I went there with
111
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.800
a couple of my punk friends because
you couldn't go there as a metal head
112
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:58.560
alone. And I walk in and
like literally sixty seconds later, my friends
113
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:01.399
are like and they knew the owners. They're like, we have to leave,
114
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:05.480
and I'm like why, I'll tell
you, but we need to leave
115
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:09.120
right now. And we walk outside, like, yeah, the owners came
116
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:11.519
up to me and because we're friends
with them, they gave a little respect
117
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:15.759
and let us take you out of
there because they were going to kick the
118
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:20.639
shit out of you because you had
long hair. Insane? Was the world
119
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.680
that insane? That's so crazy,
man, that's kind of awful. Honestly,
120
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:30.040
it is so. I was also
at the first ever crossover show with
121
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:33.480
punk and metal for the first time. Yeah, it was in the Sun
122
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:39.960
Valley Sportsman's Lodge. It was a
fucking elks lodge with no security. First
123
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.559
time metal had some punks in the
same building. You can imagine how crazy
124
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:50.559
that show was. Cooc when they
have hardcore punk or pepper Suicidal before they
125
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.639
crossed over. I don't remember who
the third punk bands metal bands were Possessed,
126
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:01.720
Dark Angel and this band Savage Grace
is absolute fucking mayhem. One of
127
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.960
the best memories of my life,
Like crazy, such a crazy show.
128
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.480
Do you know what year that was, because that seems like a really important
129
00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.480
like I think it was about eighty
three. Yeah, and I interviewed both
130
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:20.159
Woody I'm separate interviews. Woody and
Mike from coc I brought up the story.
131
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.159
I'm like, you probably don't remember
this, and I started talking about
132
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:26.559
that was like at an Elks lodge, right, yeah, that was our
133
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:31.799
most epic show ever, you know, and it's like, it's so cool
134
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:35.159
to think your teenager are going to
ship, but the band that was actually
135
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:39.279
playing there thinks it's epic. Two
if totally right, totally, But I
136
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.399
mean when you look at the history
of it, and I'm sure that they
137
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:45.360
look back at it and they're they're
probably like shaking their heads too, like
138
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:48.799
can't, can't. It's almost doesn't
feel real, I guess right now because
139
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.360
everything now it's like everyone we're so
accepting of everything, you know, it's
140
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:58.080
like crazy. That's like last year
at Hellfest, I was at my first
141
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:01.600
Discharge show in my whole life because
I couldn't go to one back then.
142
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.799
Yeah, and then I and I
interviewed them. We were talking about it,
143
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:09.120
and even they were like, yeah, that was pretty fucked up back
144
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.600
then, like it was just stupid, Like why not be all? Now
145
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:16.600
we're all big family, That's the
way it should have always been. Man
146
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:20.519
unite and be one. We're all
in that same boat. So wow.
147
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:26.320
All that so wow? So what
else you got going on after Riots Us?
148
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.360
Well, we're flying. We fly
tomorrow to Massachusetts to do a festival
149
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:35.559
out there. Massachusetts is for lovers, so that'll be a lot of fun
150
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:41.799
with some of our best friends like
bas uh sorry actually Based it's not playing
151
00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:46.279
Hawthorn Heights, Emory Uh, Further
Teams Forever, so a lot of bands
152
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.480
that we came up with. It's
really really, really fun. And then
153
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:54.480
after that we're heading over to Asia
and Australia. We do some shows with
154
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:58.679
The Emity Affliction in Australia, which
will be really cool because they're massive over
155
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:03.200
there. And then that brings us
into another US tour November December, where
156
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:09.159
we're doing our sixth album, This
is How the Wind Shifts in full So
157
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:11.799
I love celebrating ten years of that. How do people check out all the
158
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:16.080
tour dates, the new album by
your merch all that good stuff. Yeah,
159
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:20.360
just go to the Google I guess
Silverstein and Ad'll probably it's probably the
160
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.679
best way. We have a website, a silver Sin music dot com.
161
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:28.080
I don't know. We're on social
media, well you'll find us. Crazy
162
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.080
is it's so easy to find everything
you know, no doubt. It's not
163
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.440
like the old dates where we like, you know how I got found out
164
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:37.080
about bands. This will trip you
out. There was this record store in
165
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:41.840
the valley called OZ Records. There
was this store clerk there, not even
166
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:46.639
the manager, he was just a
store clerk. His name was Brian Slagel.
167
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.879
You know who that is Metal Blade? Yeah, right, the beginning
168
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.279
of Metal Blade. So we used
to walk in there. I told him
169
00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:56.480
a few years ago we were hanging
out. I'm like, I was so
170
00:11:56.759 --> 00:11:58.360
genius what you fucking did because we
used to walk in there, and he's
171
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:01.679
like, hey, this band out
because you gotta listens shit Like now,
172
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.120
okay, hey go to this band
at the Troubadour. They're gonna they're gonna
173
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:11.799
kick ass. And that's how we
found out about our music, from going
174
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:16.759
to this record store and the dude
owning Metal Lake, never knowing that would
175
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:20.720
be around today, right saying here
here here it was in Gene. I
176
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:24.559
love it, man. It's it's
the people that care the most, the
177
00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:28.360
real fans that end up doing the
most important stuff in the industry. It's
178
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:33.200
really how it works. True story, craziest story ever in your musical journey.
179
00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:37.360
What is it my craziest story?
Yeah, yours? Oh my god,
180
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.200
dude, that's a hard question,
right, that's a really hard question.
181
00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:46.320
I don't even know where to start. I mean, bat landed on
182
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.440
my face one time. Well,
I was sleeping at a kid's house.
183
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.080
Wow, that's a NAUSI moment right
there. I didn't take a bite out
184
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:54.120
of it. No, I got
the funk out of there. I went
185
00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:56.919
and slept in the van. That's
a that's a favorite. That's one of
186
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.480
my favorite stories. But one time
too, we also were staying at a
187
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:07.360
kid's house. This is in La
at Los Angeles Sound in California, maybe
188
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.240
it was Orange County and h this
guy's like, yeah, you can stay
189
00:13:09.240 --> 00:13:13.279
at my house. Cool. So
we got there, really nice house,
190
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:18.440
and we found out very shortly after
that it wasn't his house. It was
191
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:22.159
his neighbor's house and they were out
of town. Whoa, So we were
192
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:28.080
breaking into his neighbor's house. Then
he decided, as he thought this would
193
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.480
impress us, He's like, I
got a cool trick, Like all right,
194
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:39.559
pulled down his pants and lit his
genitals on fire. Holy fuck,
195
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:41.919
What the kind of drugs was he
was? I think he was sober too
196
00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:46.279
at the time, which is wild. And uh, you know what what
197
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:50.960
I remember most about that is the
smell turns out fiery balls don't smell so
198
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.120
good. Now. Yeah, it
was really weird. And then we don't
199
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.960
know what to do. A couple
of people want and slept in the van.
200
00:13:56.200 --> 00:14:01.480
I slept like in some child room, I guess. And then at
201
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.720
seven o'clock we got I got hear
a bang on the door. We gotta
202
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.600
go. They're coming back, Like
what I didn't even know it was at
203
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.720
that time time, I didn't even
know. We weren't supposed to be there.
204
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:16.840
I thought it was like I thought
it was his house. That's so
205
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.000
old school punk rock though, Like
there were places in La we're all the
206
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:24.360
homeless punks. There was a hotel
that was a bandon called it used to
207
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:30.399
be I guess when it was alive
Hotel Hello, but the o wis gone,
208
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:35.039
so it was Hotel Hell or Motel
Hell, and all the homeless punks
209
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:39.159
lived there. Yeah, like even
like the Go Goes when they were punk,
210
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:43.240
like when they first started they were
like hardcore punk, yeah, you
211
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.120
know, and bands like that,
all those bands, they just that's where
212
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.559
they lived. It's a band in
motel in Hollywood. Yeah, man,
213
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:52.000
no, we we had a lot
of a lot of those moments in the
214
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:56.120
early days of like we're not are
you kidding me? We don't have forty
215
00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:58.559
bucks for a motel, right,
who's got a floor? You know?
216
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:03.679
And that was me and that made
for some of the best stories. Uh.
217
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:05.759
I don't think I can go back
to that, but yeah, exactly,
218
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.720
but those are those are the times. But that's how you get to
219
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:11.919
hear you know, you have to
go pass that to get to hear.
220
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:18.399
Absolutely any last words you want to
leave with the listeners that we haven't covered
221
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:20.919
already, not really stay safe,
to take care of each other out there,
222
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:24.200
you know, be good, call
your mom, U, eat your
223
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:28.080
vegetables, you know, all that
good stuff. Yeah. I don't know
224
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:31.279
if you uh, if you're interested
in want to do, check out my
225
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.720
band Silverstein, and also check out
my podcast Lead Singer Syndrome, where I
226
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.840
talked to other lead singers, probably
very similar to your show, but just
227
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:43.159
lead singer on lead singer. That's
my that's my premise. That's pretty cool.
228
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:46.399
I like that. Who was your
favorite interview? Oh that's tough.
229
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.279
I've be done over three hundred.
Yeah, So you know, I think
230
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:54.200
I had Dennis Lickxon from Refused.
I saw him walking around here. He
231
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:58.159
was a great, great interview.
I had d Snyder uh hed. He
232
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:00.840
speaks his mind, that's for sure. But man, it's hard. It's
233
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:04.799
hard to pick a favorite. I
appreciate every person that's that's done my show.
234
00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:10.120
I hear you because I've I did
an interview last weekend. That's somebody.
235
00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:12.759
He decided to interview me and he
asked me that question. I'm like,
236
00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:18.480
I've done almost three thousand interviews.
I three came and pick one,
237
00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.039
you know, and it's like,
I can't even pick one. I don't
238
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:25.039
know. I can tell you the
worst, which I won't tell you,
239
00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:27.720
but I can tell but I can't
tell you the best, my my worst.
240
00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:30.879
This is a great story. You're
gonna love this. So I have
241
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:33.600
a recorder. You had a task
am, I got a zoom. So
242
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:38.000
look at this ship too. This
shit's like a whole fucking daw And no,
243
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:41.559
I know, I know that that's
great. My zoom is similar.
244
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:45.200
But so I see that you hit
the record button. Congratulations. Right.
245
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:49.039
I was doing an interview one time
and this this guy sucked. Man,
246
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.799
I was like, I was,
I was supposed to do forty five minutes
247
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:55.960
with him. I was about seven
minutes in and he's just stonewalling me,
248
00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:59.360
like just not give me one more
responses, and I'm like, I don't
249
00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:00.600
know how I'm gonna get through this. I think I know who that is.
250
00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:04.720
So then I get I finally I
get, I get through about thirty
251
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:07.920
two minutes and I and I go
and I go, man, that was
252
00:17:07.960 --> 00:17:11.559
awful. I don't even want to
release this. And I go to hit
253
00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:17.119
my stop button on my recorder and
I had never hit record, and I
254
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:19.240
was like wow. I was like, that's that's I don't believe in God
255
00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:22.559
or anything, but hey, that
that is intervention right there, because like
256
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:26.319
I don't have to release this ever. Thank god. You know, that
257
00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:30.039
made my decision easy because yeah,
it's old. And that's the only time
258
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:33.480
I ever forgot didn't forgot to hit
the record button. I just three thousands.
259
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:37.640
He's probably hit it once, probably
forgotten once or twice. No,
260
00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:40.880
you know what, Yes, but
you know what was the worst because that's
261
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:42.920
a big fear of mine. Like
if you notice, I keep looking to
262
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:45.960
make sure it's still record. Yeah, you know, I like I'm like
263
00:17:47.160 --> 00:17:52.400
paratlid about The worst was I was
on a golf cart going to interview Rob
264
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:57.480
Zombie and while it's on the golf
cart holding the task, and I hit
265
00:17:57.640 --> 00:18:03.359
a button or something and it changed
all the fucking settings and I had like
266
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:07.359
a five minute interview, like that's
all I had, and I'm trying to
267
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.079
figure out on the golf cart I
get back to where it's gonna actually sound
268
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:15.640
good, and it was like all
distorted and showed like fuck me, but
269
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:19.960
