2
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:13.960
you you.

3
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:21.760
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures pate

4
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:24.000
Man W four c Y Radio and I'm here.

5
00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:25.399

It's perfes.

9
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.560
It's like there's there's so many there were so many

10
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:37.079
English festivals and they're great, but there's so few that

11
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:40.640
actually create their own scene. It's copnationwide battle of the

12
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:43.679
bands that actually provides a stage for new material for

13
00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:46.759
new artists to come up. Bruntsell, creater and runway then

14
00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:50.479
incredible and it must have really cheesy. But to be here,

15
00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:52.399
it's just not a we can be happy mate.

16
00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:56.119
I can't agree more. Like you know, I do festivals

17
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:58.520
all over the US UK. You're by do down mood.

18
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:01.840
I do this one. But I got here. I was

19
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:04.120
at Vakan last week. I got here and I did

20
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:06.200
a post on social and like I'm home with my

21
00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:08.799
Bloodstock family, because that's what it feels like when you

22
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:09.280
get here.

23
00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:11.480
It is a family here, It really is a family.

24
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:15.920
Yeah, totally yeah, And you're right about everything they do

25
00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:19.439
to help new artists to get exposed what they do

26
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:24.000
for Sophie Lancaster Foundation. And one thing I've been saying

27
00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:28.079
a lot is there's never any assholes at this festival.

28
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:31.159
That's That's one thing we found is you can go

29
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:33.439
anywhere and you can literally make new friends just from

30
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:36.200
being here over the weekend. It's such a lovely environment

31
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:36.599
to be in.

32
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:37.400
Yeah.

33
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:40.200
I think its size really helps that because it's it's big,

34
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:41.400
but it's not massive.

35
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:41.719
Yeah.

36
00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:43.760
That means if you're at the bar at two o'clock

37
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:45.799
in the fucking morning and you're have the best conversation

38
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:48.599
with the complete stranger Chasa following night, you can see

39
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.519
him again exactly, And I think that's what that's what

40
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:54.239
that feeling of family is, you know. And also when

41
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:58.359
you see like parents with like little mini moshesh there's

42
00:01:58.400 --> 00:01:59.159
nothing more beautiful.

43
00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:03.000
See the like the next generation. Oh yeah, rockings. I

44
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:06.040
love it totally. It's like yesterday two things happened to

45
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:10.319
your point. One is Heavy Sourus was playing and there

46
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:13.759
were all these kids in the pit because it wasn't

47
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:16.800
that kind of pit that they could get that experience,

48
00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:20.759
and that is so cool. Like I've brought my grandparents

49
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.960
and my grandkids in the pit and like they have

50
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:27.039
a blast. And then you know, metal heads are you know,

51
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:30.680
they think we're all evil, mean people and they're just

52
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:33.520
sitting there like taking care of the kids and blocking

53
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:35.319
them and that's the way it should be.

54
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:39.439
One of my favorite quotes is that hippies, all right,

55
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:43.159
douchebags cost playing as pleasant people and metal heads are

56
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:44.039
like really nice people.

57
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:45.120
Cost playing his douchebags.

58
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:48.240
Yeah, exactly, I get do we look a certain way

59
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:50.719
by guarantee, like if you want to create a good

60
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:52.000
time for the nice people coaching?

61
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:52.879
Hear his fucking rock ball.

62
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:54.879
Well, you know what's funny about what you say about

63
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:59.120
hippies because I say a lot the hippies became the

64
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:03.080
yuppies came to boomers, Like how the fuck are you

65
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:06.439
a hippie and a boomer like that makes zero sense

66
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:09.599
to me. To me, the punks are the real hippies.

67
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:12.400
The metal heads are the real hippies, if you're gonna

68
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:16.479
use that term and what it's supposed to me. And

69
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:20.240
then funny story, Okay, last night I'm in the pit

70
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:24.280
for Saxon and I back out a pit as the

71
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:26.960
wall that's forming and I bump into it. I turn

72
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:30.240
around and it was this girl that I met and

73
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:35.039
pressed at vakking last week, like where does that fucking happen?

74
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:38.639
Like, you know, unbelievable. We just looked at each hether like,

75
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:39.840
holy shit.

76
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:42.680
Right about me?

77
00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:45.159
Yeah? Yeah, yeah exactly.

78
00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:48.199
And you know, to your point of what you were

79
00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:52.199
saying before too, Like I saw Vicky did a posting

80
00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:55.840
where somebody asked her are you gonna start building up

81
00:03:55.879 --> 00:04:02.919
like Download? And she said absolutely, fucking without hesitation, you know,

82
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:06.639
because yeah, you take you take other festivals like that,

83
00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:11.719
and you're gathering different groups of people, and that's where

84
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:13.800
the problems end up occurring.

85
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:14.280
I think.

86
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.759
I think it's when it's kind of the point you yeah, great,

87
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:18.680
The point you're making is when people who are unfamiliar

88
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:22.079
with how this how there's like, for example, in the moshpit.

89
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:23.879
We all know the one central of the mosh pit.

90
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:25.800
Someone goes down, you fucking pick.

91
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:26.959
Them up, no doubt.

92
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:28.600
But someone outside of that, they just see a big

93
00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:30.240
old fight, so they just coming with their elbows.

94
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.600
It's that's not how this rolls, you know, right, Well,

95
00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:35.720
Like I was at Download this year, and I was

96
00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:39.759
at the Architects Show, and fucking I love that band too,

97
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:44.480
but there were they were stopped, like I think five times.

98
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.680
I saw that. Yeah, I just say that because people.

99
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.399
Were just going into fucking punch people. That's not what

100
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:52.040
the pit's about. The pins about going in there so

101
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.040
you don't punch people in the real world.

102
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:57.519
Yeah, it's a cathartic expression of anger. It's not actual

103
00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:58.800
fucking anger exactly.

104
00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:03.680
Like anybody that looks at videos of me in the pit,

105
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:07.160
I have this big grin from ear to ear. There's

106
00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:10.639
zero anger in there, you know, And you might have

107
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:13.079
had anger going in for whatever's going on in the

108
00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:15.319
outside world, and then you come out and none of

109
00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:16.759
that shit matters anymore.

110
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:18.279
It's the best therapy there is.

111
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:20.040
And that's kind of like what we try and do.

112
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:22.079
Like a lot. We get called a party band quite

113
00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:23.480
a lot, and I'm kind of make you my piece

114
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.560
with it, because yeah, we won't have a good time.

115
00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:27.879
But I think we a little bit different from the

116
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:29.800
party bands, you know, other party bands that are like

117
00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:36.040
I don't be rude, a bit vacuous, don't you say? Yeah, Yeah,

118
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:38.040
I think we're a little bit different. We we acknowledge

119
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:39.439
that actually there's a lot of shit in the world,

120
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.600
and we acknowledge the bad things happen and will continue

121
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:44.079
to happen. Yeah, but when you're one of our shows

122
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.240
for four or five minutes to an hour, none of

123
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:48.279
that shit's gonna touch you. You can have the best

124
00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:50.079
fucking time and you're gonna but switch it off.

125
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:54.600
That's so key because like listen, if I wantn't just

126
00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:57.040
hear your music or listening album, I go to a

127
00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.959
show to be engaged, to have fun and not perfection.

128
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:05.600
And you know, I feel like on album like you're listening,

129
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:08.040
but when you're at a show, you feel it, Yeah,

130
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:10.839
sense of escapism that you don't get.

131
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:13.959
Listening, and there's this connection exactly that Yeah, if you

132
00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.560
make the connection. Now there's bands out there that they

133
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:18.639
just play like they're in the studio and then there's

134
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:20.000
no connection exactly.

135
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:22.439
You could be the best musician, but if you don't

136
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:23.920
know lot you're having a good time, that's not.

137
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:25.319
Going to translate exactly.

138
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:26.639
That's what's even to care about.

139
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:29.079
Yeah, we just love to bring the energy and that

140
00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:30.839
is reciprocated from the crowd.

141
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.879
So and it's so common here at Bloodstock because I

142
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:38.120
have the most fun at certain sets at Bloodstock because

143
00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:41.560
of that yesterday heavy Sores. I'm in a pit with

144
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:46.040
a bunch of dinosaurs, okay I mean and then next

145
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:51.680
Evil Scarecrow, like they were the funniest motherfuckers ever, and

146
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:55.879
there's like crabs and spiders and it was just like

147
00:06:55.920 --> 00:07:01.199
a fucking blast. I sent video to my kids and

148
00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:04.480
my daughter's like, what the heck I'm like, and I explained,

149
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:07.800
it's just that's what this festival is all about. We're

150
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:11.480
just having fun and not taking ourselves so seriously. And

151
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:13.959
that's when I interviewed them. That's what they said. They're like,

152
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:16.639
we don't take ourselves so seriously. We're just here to

153
00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:20.560
have fun. There's too many gate keepers out there that

154
00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:24.199
take metal way too seriously. This is supposed to be

155
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:28.800
fun and it is exactly best. However, Oh yeah, no doubt.

156
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:31.839
Like since the first year I came here, I'm like,

157
00:07:31.959 --> 00:07:34.000
I will come here every single year.

158
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:36.759
Have been to Radar firsts that one haven't been to

159
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:38.800
you again? To check that out.

160
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:41.519
We're talking about like diversity of acts, not the sense

161
00:07:41.519 --> 00:07:45.279
of community and family. Radar is incredible. Like for me,

162
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:48.519
like I love rock and heavy rock, but I like

163
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:51.160
I need to like mixing up a little bit as well.

164
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:54.240
And Radar is again that community theme. You don't know

165
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:56.439
what you can listen to, and I love that and

166
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:57.959
we're so good about those. I know we should do

167
00:07:58.040 --> 00:07:59.399
it bus and we are, and it's amazing.

168
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:00.399
Now we can talk about that.

169
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:03.920
The festival that needs like some recognition. They set up

170
00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:07.040
so this there's two stages, but one one one's on,

171
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:09.079
one's off, says no clashing.

172
00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:12.680
I love that, right. I hate when I go to

173
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:15.720
the festival. I actually get to get out of here

174
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.319
and go to sets, and then there's two bands that

175
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.920
I want to see playing at the exact same time,

176
00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:22.759
and I have to make a choice.

177
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:23.560
Usually I don't.

178
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:25.319
I'll stand in the middle and listen to one in

179
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:27.040
one ear and one in the other ear because I

180
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:28.560
don't want to make the fucking choice.

181
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:33.679
Yeah right right. It kind of sucks, you know.

182
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:38.120
But exactly it's like, oh, I can't go to this one,

183
00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:41.360
you know, and it's like you have to. I don't

184
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:43.519
want to make decisions. I just want to go have fun,

185
00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:47.879
you know. And so that is another thing that is

186
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:52.960
cool about festivals like that. It's like, you know, just

187
00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:57.720
like here that they're about the fan experience and that's

188
00:08:57.799 --> 00:09:00.440
so important. Then all the bands are about it too,

189
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:05.279
and that's what's killered too, you know. And it's good

190
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:08.080
to hear from artists of how they feel playing at

191
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:10.720
a festival like that, because one thing from my sale

192
00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:15.720
offense being in the audience, but you playing whole other world.

193
00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:18.320
It's like, I mean, it's at the every every performance

194
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:20.519
like sends pretensions, but every performance, every piece of art,

195
00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:24.320
is a dialogue between the creator and the people having

196
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:26.480
that experience, and it doesn't work if one.

197
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:29.679
Of those people are absent exactly. And it's a transfer

198
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:32.679
of emotion. So if you have no emotion on stage,

199
00:09:32.679 --> 00:09:33.879
how am I supposed to have emotion?

200
00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:36.480
Exactly? And that that's goes back to what I was

201
00:09:36.519 --> 00:09:37.039
saying earlier.

202
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:39.440
It's like when the band on stage, you're given the

203
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:41.799
energy that translates to the crowd. Yeah, you know what

204
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:44.039
I mean, and it just makes everyone feel like good.

205
00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:44.639
No doubt.

206
00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:48.200
Like example too, how does it feel when you're up

207
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:51.080
there and people are like singing your words back to

208
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:53.519
them and you're like blowing your mind that they actually are.

209
00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:57.360
It's honestly the most surreal thing because it's like, you know,

210
00:09:57.480 --> 00:09:59.879
a band they write material and then they write these

211
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:02.159
lyrics and it's like you're going and you're playing in

212
00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:04.559
front of people, and to hear that back it's just

213
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:05.360
so surreal.

214
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:07.159
I think that that's the word for it.

215
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:09.919
It's like you never expect that when you write these songs, right,

216
00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:12.320
they translate that well, that people just learn the words

217
00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:12.879
word word.

218
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:15.000
It's strange. Yeah, strange.

219
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:17.320
It's always it's always a little bit scary, Like I mean,

220
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:20.279
I don't do the writing, but you know, creating something

221
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:22.279
putting into the world. It's like, I feel like this,

222
00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:22.960
do you do you.

223
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:24.000
Feel like that? Right?

224
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:26.159
And having a room for people going I know exactly

225
00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:28.080
where you're coming from and we're there as well.

226
00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:32.320
Or they put their own meaning to it and everybody

227
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:35.799
can feel it, but you don't have to feel the

228
00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:36.399
exact scene.

229
00:10:36.799 --> 00:10:38.399
So I always like to use a term of like

230
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:40.799
a dandy lion. So you write a song and then

231
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.240
the dandelion it blows into distance and it's no longer

232
00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:47.120
your song anymore. People take that meaning to the lyrics

233
00:10:47.159 --> 00:10:49.600
and the songs and they make it their own, like

234
00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:53.799
music can translate a certain point in someone's life, or

235
00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:56.679
you know, or it has Yeah, yeah, people grow up

236
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.200
and they associate your music with a certain point in

237
00:10:59.200 --> 00:10:59.559
their life.

238
00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:00.519
And that's so amazing.

239
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:02.000
That's a key to a good song.

240
00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:04.279
Like there's some AARs out there is like, oh, you

241
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:07.120
should have the meaning that I have, But that's not

242
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.200
gonna work out. Like let people they always have their

243
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:15.200
own interpretation, their own perception. Let them have it because

244
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:18.039
do they know what you mean by the song? Not

245
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:23.240
necessarily and does it matter no, because music's the best therapy,

246
00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:25.919
therapy for you the artists, to get it out of you,

247
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.279
and therapy for us to the audience to take it

248
00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:32.960
and apply it to our own life. And that's a

249
00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:36.320
good song. Yeah, So what else do you have going

250
00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:37.919
on for the rest of the year that you want

251
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:38.960
the listeners to know about.

252
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.840
We are heavy in writing in the moment. We're writing

253
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:43.399
on a lot of new matter. We've got a bunch

254
00:11:43.399 --> 00:11:47.440
of new songs coming up. That's that's really a primary

255
00:11:47.440 --> 00:11:49.679
focus at the moment. However, we got like a bunch

256
00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:54.200
of bunch of other amazing shows, so we are let

257
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:57.399
me see, so where please excuse my memories over us

258
00:11:57.399 --> 00:11:58.879
on that's all right.

259
00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:01.799
It's tough too, And you're hero festival because you're like

260
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:04.919
in a zone and you're there are some things I'm like,

261
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:06.440
oh fuck, some male say.

262
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:06.840
Something like that.

263
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:07.919
I'm awful.

264
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:10.720
I can start a sentence and then when I get

265
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:12.480
an edit sentence, I forgot my original point.

266
00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:14.600
So we have Yeah, thank you man.

267
00:12:14.759 --> 00:12:17.039
So let me see. So we've got we're playing tuch

268

Then in September we're back in Nightingham supporting mc devote

283
00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:01.440
just getting our heads down, just writing, watching, watching, very

00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:03.679
full on froust, isn't it. So we're looking to release

I love your energy.

288
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:11.519
I just want the listeners to know that this is

289
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:14.559
what it should be about. You should be pumped to

290
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:17.039
play a show. Otherwise you're in the wrong business.

291
00:13:17.039 --> 00:13:19.799
It's the best feeding in the world, doing right, the

00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:24.200
best job in the If you're not having fun playing,
