00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:05.919
Hi, you have done too.

2
00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:07.320
Yes, that's true.

3
00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:12.279
Se Wow for you.

4
00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:21.239
You say, it's the pipe Man here on the Adventures

5
00:00:21.239 --> 00:00:23.239
of Pipe Man W four c Y Radio. And I'm

6
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:27.920
here with so sworn enemy in the house. Nice and uh.

7
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:30.920
We were hanging out together, not knowing each other, waiting

8
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:34.920
for the publicists to connect us for the interview.

9
00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:36.479
That was quite funny, wasn't it.

10
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:39.399
I know right, It's like and she she was saying

11
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:42.200
to me, She's like, uh, I don't know where he is.

12
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:45.159
He says, he's by this sign that says must have pockets.

13
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:48.359
And then I'm like, oh, that is the dude that

14
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:49.600
was standing next to me.

15
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:52.679
Having an awkward moment when I'm trying to get up

16
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:54.079
on the ledge over here.

17
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:54.799
I know that.

18
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.159
But and I said to you third times a charm,

19
00:00:57.159 --> 00:00:58.640
and you did on the third time.

20
00:00:58.479 --> 00:00:59.520
The third time. I got it.

21
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:03.000
It is a high. I mean to be fair, to be.

22
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:05.000
Fair, that's easy I should have been.

23
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:08.000
I'm trying to give you kudos.

24
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:08.359
Man.

25
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:13.280
You know, I'm trying to save your reputation, not that

26
00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:15.799
it could probably be saved at this point maybe.

27
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:16.719
This point, who knows.

28
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:20.159
Oh man, So here we are at Milwaukee Metal Fest.

29
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:22.879
How bad. Is this? This is crazy? I love it.

30
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:24.519
I mean, I'm having a good time so far. I've

31
00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:27.000
only been here for four hours and it's been amazing.

32
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:28.400
I've seen so many people I know already.

33
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:33.079
I just bring around aimlessly and Hey, South, what's up, y'all?

34
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:37.000
South's going on? South? Y'all? Sworn enemy? Sworn enemy? What's up?

35
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:39.040
You know what's funny about that?

36
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:39.680
Okay?

37
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:43.280
So your friends walked up while we're staying here, and

38
00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:46.079
I heard the word interview out of my out of

39
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:48.840
my ear. I'm like, oh, I bet you one of

40
00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:51.560
them is probably the one I'm interview. And so I

41
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:54.680
got to listen to see how fucked up other interviews were.

42
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:01.239
Now those are just friends, no interview by I know.

43
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:03.680
They weren't interview. I just heard the word interview. So

44
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:05.959
I'm like tune it in, Like all right, let me

45
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:07.640
see what I shouldn't fucking do?

46
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:09.360
You know?

47
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:14.080
But I do feel that way, like interviews in metal

48
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:18.199
should not have a script. They should not, you know,

49
00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:20.919
like it should be a conversation number one, number two.

50
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:23.039
If you're a metal head or a punk and you

51
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:26.000
need a script, there's something wrong.

52
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:29.840
I agree, I don't you know, you see some people

53
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:32.199
who do the interviews, they have a paper with all

54
00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:33.000
that questions.

55
00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:35.360
It's like it's gotta be more organic.

56
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:38.879
Yeah, and you know what, I watch it like it

57
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.199
it looks that way like you're reading it, you know,

58
00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:45.800
And it does start you off, because what if I

59
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:48.039
were the artists and I know artists that do this,

60
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:51.360
they'll throw you off so that you're like.

61
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:52.319
Where am I?

62
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:55.159
Where am I? Like this way, I'll give a fuck

63
00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:57.520
where the interview goes. Well, just let it like take

64
00:02:57.560 --> 00:02:58.639
a life of its own.

65
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:01.520
Exactly. I agree, And those turn out to be the

66
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:02.680
best interviews.

67
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:04.439
Oh yeah, cause you find out some great stuff. Like

68
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:07.280
earlier today I did an interview upstairs and we had

69
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:10.039
the backdrop was the hotel across the street.

70
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:11.479
That's nice.

71
00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:14.759
And I made a comment, Now, I didn't put two

72
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:17.439
and two together at first, Like yesterday I bought one

73
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:20.800
of the shirts up here as Dahmer on the back right, Yeah,

74
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:23.479
it's Wisconsin that I put together. I didn't put that

75
00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:26.360
hotel together. And that's the spot. And so I was

76
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:29.080
talking about they had a new song Flesh. I'm like,

77
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:33.120
you know, is that about Dahmer? Since we're here, and

78
00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:36.400
then they brought up that's the hotel right there.

79
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:38.280
I'm like, doma hotel.

80
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:40.840
Well, an idiot, I didn't put two and two together,

81
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:44.520
you know, yep, but that is a trip like that.

82
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:46.199
We're right across the street.

83
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:48.000
How many people got killed in that place?

84
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:50.639
Oh my god? Like I think that's where they have

85
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:53.919
artists catering though, I'll pass.

86
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:55.840
If that's where I got to go to eat, I'll

87
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:56.400
pass on that.

88
00:03:56.560 --> 00:03:57.280
Oh my god.

89
00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:00.840
So have you ever played this fuss before?

90
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:02.240
A few times?

91
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:05.280
Yeah, yeah, back in the day. We haven't played two

92
00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:09.039
thousand and four. Yeah, a few times before that, Like

93
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:10.719
I think two thousand and one we played there, two

94
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:13.319
thousand and two and two thousand and four, that would

95
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:13.960
be the last time.

96
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.120
So from your short time here so far, what do

97
00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:21.199
you think of it with Jamie taking over? How the

98
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:23.240
festival is now awesome?

99
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:27.920
I mean, if you take a look around, there's people everywhere.

100
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:33.040
Everything is running smoothly, there's anything you need, you know,

101
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:34.480
they're taking care of the bands.

102
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:37.560
There's an artist lounge, just catering.

103
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:40.439
You know, it's all the stuff that you would ask

104
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:42.480
for if you were in a band you're getting.

105
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:42.920
See.

106
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.959
I love hearing that because, as you know, more than anybody.

107
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.920
There's some festivals that are like that, and there's some

108
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:51.560
that are really a disaster.

109
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:53.680
Well, if you notice the ones that are a disaster,

110
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:55.600
those are the ones that don't really last long.

111
00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:58.959
Exactly so, and I also know's they're the ones that

112
00:04:59.079 --> 00:04:59.879
don't take care of.

113
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.879
The artists absolutely. You know, Jamie is an artist.

114
00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:09.000
He knows he's been doing Hate pread since what ninety three,

115
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:12.639
ninety four, So he understands the concept of taking care

116
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:16.759
of people because there's times when I'm sure when he

117
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:19.600
first started out he wasn't getting taken care of, and

118
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:22.120
he doesn't want anybody to feel like that, so he

119
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:24.439
makes sure that he takes care of everyone. I know

120
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:27.199
Jamie for a long time, and that dude has always

121
00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:30.800
been one of the best people that I know. He

122
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:34.519
totally helped us with our career getting started, Like he

123
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:37.560
put us out on his record label, still Born back

124
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:38.040
in the day.

125
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:41.519
He got us tours. We played so many shows with Hatebreed.

126
00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:43.480
He put us on so many Stillborn fests, and even

127
00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:46.839
to this day, he's still hooking us up, blessing us

128
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:49.920
with the Milwaukee Metalfest. He blessed us with the thirty

129
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:53.519
years of Hate preed last year in Hartford, we played

130
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:58.120
that the Oakdale Theater. I mean it's a forty eight

131
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:01.000
hundred capacity plays and he is asking a band like

132
00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:05.439
us to join him in my celebration of the thirty

133
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:06.480
years that he's been playing.

134
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:09.360
So and you don't find that a lot, do you?

135
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:12.720
No? That dude is a hard worker, a great guy.

136
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:15.680
Good for the scene, and any any other good words

137
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:18.639
that I could think of throwing there, because he deserves

138
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:19.040
all those.

139
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:23.240
Adjectives absolutely, And like his first time, I'm doing Milwaukee, Malifess,

140
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:25.120
I go on tour and I do festivals all over

141
00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:28.800
to US, UK and Europe, and this always overlapped with

142
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.560
something else I was doing. But I'll tell you I'll

143
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:35.079
do this every year because just the way the vibe,

144
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:37.639
the way it is, it's like it's old school.

145
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:38.480
Yeah.

146
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:43.480
I was at the Violin show last night and I

147
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.600
sent I send videos to my door because it was

148
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:51.040
it was old school crazy like CBGB's crazy. Yeah, And

149
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:54.040
I bet and I sent it to my door. My

150
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:56.720
door is like, oh, is that how you knocked out

151
00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:00.279
your front teeth? Because all the people are stage. Because

152
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:04.560
I did like in La way back when climbed up

153
00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:09.800
until Marshall Stack went full swan, crowd moved hit the floor,

154
00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:13.800
and I was having flashbacks to that last night, but

155
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:17.199
in a good way. I wasn't gonna do it, but

156
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:20.240
I was watching, like this is the way it should be,

157
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:23.439
you know, like a lot of the festivals you do,

158
00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.959
you're like this far apart from the stage and the

159
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:30.560
band is separated from and it's like Sean Wents just

160
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:33.879
having the best time as of his life because he's

161
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:35.920
interacting with the crowd, which is great.

162
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:37.319
And that's how it's supposed to be.

163
00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:39.600
You know, it's supposed to be intimate atmosphere like that

164
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:42.040
where you could go like this and say yo to

165
00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:43.319
the guy in the front right in front of you,

166
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:44.600
just give him a pound or whatever. You know what

167
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.040
I'm saying, give him a fist bump or whatever.

168
00:07:47.399 --> 00:07:49.600
You know, it's all that's how it's supposed to be.

169
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:51.879
That's part of what the fun is, and that's what

170
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:55.519
hooks people like you and I in even when we're young. Yes,

171
00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:58.360
you know, like one of my interviews later is with

172
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:03.800
my longtime friend Joey Era have armored saying and basically

173
00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:05.920
that's how I got so into it because I was

174
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:07.639
one of the first club shows I ever went to,

175
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:09.439
and it was like, all of a sudden, you know,

176
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:12.360
they're hanging out with you. You're a teenager there hanging

177
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:15.240
out with you. And then it becomes this thing that

178
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:19.160
where you're part of something, yes, and all of us

179
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:22.439
are the people that weren't part of something well, and

180
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:23.439
now we're a family.

181
00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:27.120
That's one correct that I mean in this scene, it

182
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:30.879
is so as huge as it is, it is so

183
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:33.240
small because everybody it's a community.

184
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:34.840
Everybody knows everybody. Yeah.

185
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:38.360
You know, like even if you don't know somebody, that

186
00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:40.679
person knows somebody and you're friends with that person. They

187
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:42.639
introduce you and you wind up knowing that person. It's

188
00:08:42.679 --> 00:08:44.679
like everybody knows everybody.

189
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:49.279
Yeah. And what's cool about nowadays, and I'm sure you

190
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:52.480
have noticed this too, is I was a long hair

191
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:55.399
back in the eighties. I couldn't go to hardcore or

192
00:08:55.399 --> 00:08:58.000
punk shows. I get my ass beat, but I wanted

193
00:08:58.039 --> 00:08:59.799
to and vice versa.

194
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:02.919
You know what's funny. I was a metal head back

195
00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:05.600
in the day. I had long hair. Used to have

196
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:08.480
to be careful of some certain shows. If I went

197
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:11.679
to see the Chrome Eggs, I would have to stand

198
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:13.120
in the back right now.

199
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:17.919
I remember, back in the day before Suicidal crossed Over,

200
00:09:19.279 --> 00:09:23.159
they would be in the pit with switchblades to suey boys.

201
00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:24.639
Wow. See that's crazy.

202
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:28.879
And it's like fuck that, you know. Or like I

203
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:32.320
was telling this story yesterday, there was this place in

204
00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:35.120
the valley on Melrose called Posers and that was like

205
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:38.440
the best place to get your spikes. Metal Heads couldn't

206
00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:42.120
go there though, because punks owned it. So I took

207
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:44.240
a couple of my punk friends. I'm like, hey, bring

208
00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:47.200
me to Posers, and we go, and they were friends

209
00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:51.120
with the owners. I'm there for like thirty seconds and

210
00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:52.799
my friend comes up to me. He's like, we need

211
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:55.480
to leave, and I'm like, what do you mean. I'll

212
00:09:55.480 --> 00:09:58.480
tell you outside. We need to leave right now. Wow,

213
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:02.720
it's like that, and he said. The owner pulled them

214
00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:05.799
aside and said, the fuck are you doing bringing that

215
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:08.200
long here in here? Because you're a friend of mine,

216
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:10.399
will let you take him out. If he's not out

217
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:12.440
of here in like thirty seconds, we're gonna.

218
00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:13.200
Beat his ass.

219
00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.639
I always thought that was so stupid, Like the jocks

220
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:20.039
were kicking our ass in school, band together, and we're

221
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:23.279
just similar type of music, and that's what we have today.

222
00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:29.240
We're banded together, one big family. It doesn't matter song, hardcore, metal, whatever,

223
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:33.639
big Melton pot now exactly, and we all get along

224
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:35.399
better than everybody else in society.

225
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:37.759
I agree, especially nowadays, I agree with.

226
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.919
So anything you want to talk about that we haven't

227
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:44.679
discussed already that you have coming up on the horizon.

228
00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:49.120
Well, I'm super stoked. This summer we're gonna go to

229
00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:52.559
Europe at Bilehozard No. So we're gonna spend a couple

230
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:55.039
of weeks there with them, and I like the thank

231
00:10:55.159 --> 00:10:56.639
FM Music Management for hooking that.

232
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:57.279
Up with us.

233
00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:02.240
There you go, Jeff Buttermark, dude, Chris Canela, great dude,

234
00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:02.519
you know.

235
00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:06.600
And I'm really happy to be part of that team.

236
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:09.799
So yeah, that's gonna be special for.

237
00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:12.159
Me because bau Hazard growing up has been, you know,

238
00:11:12.519 --> 00:11:15.120
one of my all time favorite bands. I love them

239
00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:18.720
like they were a game changing band, like life changing band,

240
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:21.440
Like that band made me want to do music. So

241
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:25.720
it's great that I've become friends with them. I know

242
00:11:25.799 --> 00:11:28.279
them personally, and now I'm gonna get to you know,

243
00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:31.159
share a bus with them and be on tour with them, and.

244
00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:34.840
It's you know, it's for certain, it's like a dream

245
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:36.639
come true. You know what I'm saying. It's like it's

246
00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:38.440
fucking cool as hell and I just love it.

247
00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:41.799
So I want to like, take me back to when

248
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:46.840
you first experience them. What was it about that that

249
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:49.720
made you become where you are today?

250
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:53.559
The music was so fucking it just brought you in.

251
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:58.320
You know, you never really heard lyrics like that, Like

252
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:03.879
they are herb and they are city. They are everything

253
00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:07.399
that you know, I am growing up and that's the

254
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:10.960
sit they talk about, all the shit that I went through,

255
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:14.879
I've been through, I'm doing I've have done, and you

256
00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:18.279
know that was the element that drew me in.

257
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:20.000
And then on top of that, you just put good

258
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:20.720
music to it.

259
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:25.320
And right now you got lyrics music and it's just

260
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:27.759
that put it together for me, and I was like

261
00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:30.519
I was done. Plus let's not let's not forget that

262
00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:32.919
you throw in the element of a violence. I like

263
00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:35.679
to see people, you know, sometimes get a little a

264
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:38.000
little hurt in the pit, you know. And and boy,

265
00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:40.399
I'll tell you, every time they played Lamos, which was

266
00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:44.720
hometown for them, Brooklyn, it was the sickest shows you've

267
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:45.399
ever seen in your life.

268
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:49.279
You want to talk about people like probably so many

269
00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:51.120
people didn't die at that place when they played.

270
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:52.919
Oh let me tell you what happened to me was

271
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:57.879
at Lemore's. I went to see Slayer, okay, and they

272
00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:02.480
did like four encores, so you figure by the second

273
00:13:02.519 --> 00:13:05.320
it's over, and that's what was happened. People were leaving,

274
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:07.639
they thought after the second and they were leaving, and

275
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:10.360
then another song would play, and then by time the

276
00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:12.879
third song was over, there were like two hundred people

277
00:13:12.919 --> 00:13:15.879
at least by walking out the door and you heard

278
00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:20.679
the first note of Angel of Death and literally I

279
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:24.159
watched two hundred people get fucking pushed right out the door.

280
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:26.840
The whole place was made. Let me ask you a

281
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:29.799
question that wouldn't be when they played under the name

282
00:13:29.879 --> 00:13:31.000
of Angel of.

283
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:32.000
Death, would it? No?

284
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:34.120
No, it was Slaw they actually played on the Slayer

285
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:37.080
because I went to Slayer's first show ever, believe that

286
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.039
or not, in La Oh wow. This was after when

287
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:44.960
I went back to Jersey. There's like nineteen eighty six

288
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:49.519
or seven, and I just remember that that is like

289
00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:52.519
one of my favorite shows ever. And I had seen

290
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:55.159
by that point Slayer like at least one hundred times.

291
00:13:55.159 --> 00:13:57.120
Shit, Dan, you're older than me if you've seen Slayer's

292
00:13:57.120 --> 00:13:57.559
fresh show.

293
00:13:57.720 --> 00:13:59.440
I was at Metallica's first show too.

294
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:01.519
Now you're showing your age, buddy.

295
00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:05.080
I know, right, sayre But I lived through like probably

296
00:14:05.120 --> 00:14:08.039
the best period of time led to today.

297
00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:09.360
I wish I got to see that.

298
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:13.279
Oh my god, and my base player seen Metallica play

299
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:18.600
at Lamar's with Mustange, which is amazing, and I'm like,

300
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:19.759
I wish I could have seen that.

301
00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:23.519
Oh that first show. Mustaine comes down in crowd, I'm

302
00:14:23.559 --> 00:14:26.799
like thirteen. He starts talking to me, hands me his

303
00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:31.440
business card. It's a Metallica power metal Dave Mustaine. Because

304
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:34.399
there was no thrash yet, it was they were considered

305
00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:37.679
power metal ferment. And then there were like twenty five

306
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:39.879
of us at the show and we all go back

307
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.720
to like their place or wherever and partied all night long.

308
00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:45.440
And that was that was the.

309
00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:46.159
Scene back then.

310
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:47.440
That's sick. Yeah. Ye.

311
00:14:47.799 --> 00:14:51.840

00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:35.279
your merch store, but what I thought was really cool

327
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.360
is you had links for to go fund me, you know,

328
00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:43.039
for I can't believe I'm fucking growing blank right now,

329
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:45.919
sick of it all. Oh yeah, yeah, so you're gonna

330
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:47.840
fund me? Is on there for that? Like you have

331
00:15:47.879 --> 00:15:50.000
all these causes at the top of your links and

332
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:52.120
then your merch at the bottom. Yes, And that says

333
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:54.200
a lot about your band in my opinion, because it

334
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:58.799
says it's about being the human and it's about the scene.

335
00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:00.000
That's what I told you.

336
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:04.360
These guys in Sworn Enemy are something special.

337
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:06.000
I could say that, you know, like.

338
00:16:08.600 --> 00:16:12.320
All about taking care of everyone else first, Like let's wait,

339
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:13.639
selfless dudes.

340
00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:15.360
I can't say the same about me.

341
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:18.360
But the rest of the guys selfless, Well that's okay.

342
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:19.519
At least most of you are.

343
00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:22.840
Five of them makeup for me. For people that didn't

344
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:24.840
know we are a six piece. We have three guitar players.

345
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:27.200
Gonna we're gonna change our name soon to Sworn Maiden.

346
00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:31.919
That's funny. Well, thanks a lot for being here. I

347
00:16:31.960 --> 00:16:34.399
