1
00:00:04.599 --> 00:00:08.339
This is the Pipe Man here on the Adventures of

2
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:09.080
Pipe Man W4CY.

3
00:00:08.980 --> 00:00:12.320
Radio, and I'm here with..

4
00:00:11.849 --> 00:00:13.570
The Antiqueens. Yes, nice.

5
00:00:28.629 --> 00:00:32.829
And she's munching on some of these cheese.

6
00:00:32.969 --> 00:00:35.329
This is for my label manager, Mike McGee.

7
00:00:36.329 --> 00:00:39.630
He specifically said no gum, but he did not say

8
00:00:39.689 --> 00:00:40.200
no cheese curds.

9
00:00:40.229 --> 00:00:42.600
He never not once said no cheese curds.

10
00:00:42.740 --> 00:00:45.179
You have to be specific, for sure.

11
00:00:45.939 --> 00:00:47.579
You're so petty, we will find loopholes.

12
00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:49.500
And I just want to tell you, too, I was

13
00:00:49.579 --> 00:00:52.420
listening a little bit to one of your other interviews,

14
00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:55.060
and we won't be talking about going to the bathroom

15
00:00:55.140 --> 00:00:56.659
on this interview, but maybe. Maybe.

16
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:01.469
I mean, we're open to it. We are open books.

17
00:01:01.549 --> 00:01:02.189
Ask us anything.

18
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:04.189
I thought you said open butts for a second.

19
00:01:04.329 --> 00:01:04.790
That too.

20
00:01:05.450 --> 00:01:08.370
So you know what's funny about that is I'm going

21
00:01:08.390 --> 00:01:11.049
to Rock, Lahoma next. And that is like the most

22
00:01:11.150 --> 00:01:14.829
insane camping in the United States for festivals. And there

23
00:01:14.909 --> 00:01:19.090
is a school bus there that they built a deck on.

24
00:01:19.170 --> 00:01:23.709
And it's called Buses, Boobs, and Buttholes. And so if

25
00:01:23.730 --> 00:01:25.959
you come up to the bus and you show your

26
00:01:26.019 --> 00:01:29.840
boobs or your buttholes, you get Mardi Gras beads. And

27
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:32.939
that happens all over the camping. Cool. Yeah, right? They

28
00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:37.239
have a strip campsite, a strip club campsite. So after

29
00:01:37.260 --> 00:01:41.859
the main band, everybody goes out to that campsite for

30
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:45.250
a strip club show. And then there's stuff all over

31
00:01:45.290 --> 00:01:47.109
the campground just like all of that.

32
00:01:47.829 --> 00:01:50.000
That does not sound like something I'd be interested in,

33
00:01:50.060 --> 00:01:52.159
but I am happy that people enjoy that.

34
00:01:52.299 --> 00:01:53.540
I know, right? It's weird, right?

35
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:54.420
Live your best life always.

36
00:01:54.719 --> 00:02:00.459
It is a trip. The experience there is kind of like, okay, yeah,

37
00:02:00.500 --> 00:02:01.640
we are in Oklahoma.

38
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:06.269
That doesn't seem like on track for Oklahoma, though. Oklahoma,

39
00:02:06.310 --> 00:02:09.009
I think like Bible Belt, I think like modesty.

40
00:02:09.050 --> 00:02:11.569
That's why when they go there, they need to let

41
00:02:11.629 --> 00:02:14.710
it all out. You know what I mean? Literally, yeah.

42
00:02:16.710 --> 00:02:21.250
So Warped Tour Montreal. How badass is that to be here?

43
00:02:21.270 --> 00:02:22.370
Oh my God.

44
00:02:22.409 --> 00:02:25.250
Check off the old bucket list. For me, because Valerie's

45
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:27.659
played Warped Tour, but I haven't. I have played twice before.

46
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:29.080
Have you played Montreal?

47
00:02:29.780 --> 00:02:33.439
I played Quebec City once in 2005. That's close. It's

48
00:02:33.500 --> 00:02:34.139
pretty close.

49
00:02:35.060 --> 00:02:37.930
But this venue's pretty cool, man. I haven't been to

50
00:02:38.009 --> 00:02:41.490
this venue before. I walked in, I'm like, Oh man,

51
00:02:41.530 --> 00:02:43.550
I wish I brought my skateboard. It's like one big

52
00:02:43.650 --> 00:02:44.569
skateboard park.

53
00:02:44.930 --> 00:02:47.050
Oh, awesome. We actually haven't been in yet.

54
00:02:47.110 --> 00:02:50.830
We got here, we missed the band check-in, we waited

55
00:02:50.889 --> 00:02:53.090
in a parking lot for half an hour, and then

56
00:02:53.129 --> 00:02:54.110
we came right here.

57
00:02:54.949 --> 00:02:58.229
Well, I feel good about that, that you're here. But

58
00:02:58.349 --> 00:03:01.069
you're not the only band that has had that issue today.

59
00:03:01.090 --> 00:03:01.770
Oh, okay.

60
00:03:02.069 --> 00:03:05.629
So don't feel bad. Like almost every interview I've had today,

61
00:03:05.689 --> 00:03:08.560
it's been late because they had a problem getting in.

62
00:03:08.810 --> 00:03:09.250
Oh, okay, good.

63
00:03:09.569 --> 00:03:11.289
So now you can feel good about yourself.

64
00:03:11.310 --> 00:03:13.669
It's a norm for us, but it's good to know

65
00:03:13.689 --> 00:03:15.430
that people are following suit.

66
00:03:15.590 --> 00:03:18.960
It means we were on time today. See? I like that.

67
00:03:19.020 --> 00:03:24.060
There you go. Craziest story, good or bad, in your

68
00:03:24.099 --> 00:03:26.960
whole musical career, what would it be? And you two

69
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:29.000
probably have different stories, but maybe not.

70
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:30.650
I got mine.

71
00:03:31.379 --> 00:03:31.860
Go for it.

72
00:03:31.889 --> 00:03:34.150
I think, honestly, one of the craziest stories for me

73
00:03:34.189 --> 00:03:38.719
personally is a full circle moment where we're touring Europe

74
00:03:38.819 --> 00:03:41.240
and then we're playing a bunch of festivals.

75
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:42.860
This was last summer. We were on tour in Europe

76
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:45.819
for five weeks. It was very hot.

77
00:03:46.060 --> 00:03:48.879
A heat wave followed us for three and a half

78
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:50.939
of those weeks, all the way up into the UK too.

79
00:03:50.979 --> 00:03:52.240
Like it was hot.

80
00:03:52.659 --> 00:03:55.020
Anyways, we finished our tour off at punk rock holiday

81
00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.840
in Slovenia and we played the beach stage.

82
00:03:57.879 --> 00:03:59.729
It was amazing. It was so hot. We did not

83
00:03:59.750 --> 00:04:01.689
go in the river. It was so cold and I

84
00:04:01.990 --> 00:04:04.139
didn't have my swimsuit. And it was too cold.

85
00:04:04.699 --> 00:04:06.099
But we finished.

86
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:06.280
The night off.

87
00:04:06.310 --> 00:04:08.509
We got to jump on stage on the main stage

88
00:04:08.669 --> 00:04:11.430
with Gob and sing one of my favorite songs, I.

89
00:04:11.409 --> 00:04:12.069
Hear You Calling.

90
00:04:12.569 --> 00:04:15.110
That was such an incredible moment for me because I

91
00:04:15.449 --> 00:04:16.290
was such a fan.

92
00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:17.540
I mean, still am.

93
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:20.160
And then suddenly I'm in Europe with them and I'm like,

94
00:04:20.220 --> 00:04:21.879
I used to listen to these guys in high school

95
00:04:21.939 --> 00:04:24.120
and like, I want to jump in. I don't know.

96
00:04:24.500 --> 00:04:28.199
That is one of those weird moments when you're in

97
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:30.180
this industry, when that happens, right?

98
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:33.410
It's like the fact that we're making friends with people

99
00:04:33.449 --> 00:04:36.850
that have inspired us to bring ourselves here. You know, that's,

100
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:38.660
probably the craziest thing for me.

101
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:41.399
It's the coolest thing. And I'll tell you what, speaking

102
00:04:41.420 --> 00:04:43.939
about what you were saying about going, I just got

103
00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:47.649
here from Europe and UK and it was brutally hot.

104
00:04:47.790 --> 00:04:48.870
I did Vakan.

105
00:04:48.889 --> 00:04:50.129
It was really bad this year.

106
00:04:50.329 --> 00:04:53.519
Oh my God. It was so bad. And, uh, So

107
00:04:53.540 --> 00:04:56.300
I was doing Bloodstock, but then my friends were doing

108
00:04:56.339 --> 00:04:58.300
Rebellion because it was the same weekend.

109
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:00.300
These are all festivals we hope to one day play.

110
00:05:00.540 --> 00:05:03.379
Oh, fucking Rebellion. You guys definitely should be at Rebellion.

111
00:05:03.610 --> 00:05:05.250
Is that the one we've been invited to before?

112
00:05:05.310 --> 00:05:08.209
But it was early on in Antique Queens and we

113
00:05:08.569 --> 00:05:09.250
couldn't afford it.

114
00:05:09.709 --> 00:05:13.689
Oh, yeah. It is definitely a bucket list you need

115
00:05:13.709 --> 00:05:14.470
to put on your list.

116
00:05:14.490 --> 00:05:15.350
Yeah, and Bakken too.

117
00:05:15.410 --> 00:05:16.709
I'd love to go play that.

118
00:05:16.769 --> 00:05:17.300
That'd be amazing.

119
00:05:17.329 --> 00:05:19.819
Just to say that we did. Let me tell you something.

120
00:05:20.189 --> 00:05:22.569
I do Hellfest every year. This was the first year

121
00:05:22.610 --> 00:05:25.649
I did Vakken. I'm like, how much bigger than Hellfest

122
00:05:25.689 --> 00:05:28.649
can it be? And I was like, holy shit.

123
00:05:28.670 --> 00:05:29.970
That festival's enormous.

124
00:05:30.610 --> 00:05:32.850
I didn't even see the whole festival. I had a band,

125
00:05:32.870 --> 00:05:35.490
and they're like, can you come to our stage to

126
00:05:35.529 --> 00:05:38.610
do the interview? And I'm looking, and it's like an

127
00:05:38.709 --> 00:05:45.550
hour walk to their stage. An hour walk to one stage.

128
00:05:46.370 --> 00:05:47.430
That sounds like a lot of work.

129
00:05:47.949 --> 00:05:48.110
Oh, pfft.

130
00:05:48.629 --> 00:05:50.379
I don't know. Do we still want to play it?

131
00:05:50.540 --> 00:05:51.500
You still want to play it?

132
00:05:51.519 --> 00:05:53.660
There's golf carts, yes. As long as there's carts.

133
00:05:54.459 --> 00:05:57.560
What was really cool about it, too, is like in

134
00:05:57.620 --> 00:06:01.089
the beginning of it, it was like very old school.

135
00:06:01.110 --> 00:06:04.870
They had these gates like you're at the racetrack, the

136
00:06:04.910 --> 00:06:09.699
horse racetrack. And security's there. And they play Ace of Spades.

137
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:13.300
And they open the gates. And a stampede comes out

138
00:06:13.339 --> 00:06:16.850
to go head and toward the stage. And they had

139
00:06:16.970 --> 00:06:20.310
smoke everywhere. It was like that was the biggest party

140
00:06:20.370 --> 00:06:24.430
event was the opening of it. Crazy. It is crazy.

141
00:06:25.139 --> 00:06:25.839
We saw a.

142
00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:28.899
Ton of vans on the highway, on the Autobahn last summer,

143
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.050
with Wacken signs on their vehicles.

144
00:06:31.430 --> 00:06:33.230
We were like, oh, they're going to Wacken. Oh, they're

145
00:06:33.250 --> 00:06:33.709
going to Wacken.

146
00:06:33.910 --> 00:06:36.329
That was what was great, too. Driving every day to

147
00:06:36.350 --> 00:06:38.769
the festival, I had like a half an hour drive,

148
00:06:38.949 --> 00:06:41.290
and I was on the Autobahn, so I'm like, oh,

149
00:06:41.350 --> 00:06:43.329
it only took me 10 minutes. It's the best.

150
00:06:44.970 --> 00:06:46.629
That was actually very much like Warped Tour back in

151
00:06:46.649 --> 00:06:47.250
the day.

152
00:06:47.490 --> 00:06:50.889
In Ontario, we'd go up to Barrie in Molson Park,

153
00:06:51.069 --> 00:06:53.629
and we'd take the one highway, the 400, and you

154
00:06:53.649 --> 00:06:56.410
could always see who else was going to Warped Tour

155
00:06:56.430 --> 00:06:58.769
because you'd see a mohawk in one van, or you'd

156
00:06:58.810 --> 00:07:01.579
see stickers on the van, or you'd just see a

157
00:07:01.620 --> 00:07:02.339
foot hanging.

158
00:07:02.139 --> 00:07:05.319
Out of the passenger window over here. It was amazing.

159
00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:07.639
I love that sense of camaraderie and community.

160
00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:10.980
Oh, totally. And I freaked out one day, too, because

161
00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:13.649
I was doing Punk Rock Bowling, And I thought maybe

162
00:07:13.709 --> 00:07:17.269
I caught the wrong weekend. I got off the plane. And, like,

163
00:07:17.329 --> 00:07:20.870
downtown Vegas for punk rock bowling is, like, all punks.

164
00:07:21.329 --> 00:07:24.920
And there were all these deadheads. And I'm like, did

165
00:07:25.009 --> 00:07:28.879
I come the wrong weekend? Like, why are they? And

166
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:31.259
it was dead and company playing at the Sphere. So

167
00:07:31.300 --> 00:07:35.680
there were, Las Vegas was all deadheads and punk rockers.

168
00:07:36.220 --> 00:07:40.019
The whole town. What's a deadhead? Grateful Dead.

169
00:07:40.259 --> 00:07:42.110
Oh, I don't know. Oh, okay.

170
00:07:42.129 --> 00:07:42.990
That's what they're called.

171
00:07:43.009 --> 00:07:43.250
Yeah.

172
00:07:43.290 --> 00:07:43.810
I didn't know that.

173
00:07:43.970 --> 00:07:49.529
And they're the hippies. So now your story.

174
00:07:50.449 --> 00:07:51.149
My story.

175
00:07:51.310 --> 00:07:52.389
We gave you enough time.

176
00:07:52.649 --> 00:07:53.230
Oh, you did.

177
00:07:53.269 --> 00:07:55.769
And I totally blanked out on my story. That was

178
00:07:55.829 --> 00:07:56.970
a great story that you had.

179
00:07:57.050 --> 00:07:58.930
Full circle moment. Was that the question?

180
00:07:59.379 --> 00:08:03.000
No, basically the craziest good or bad in your whole

181
00:08:03.060 --> 00:08:03.980
musical journey.

182
00:08:04.019 --> 00:08:07.560
Rock and roll. It's me joining the band, right? It

183
00:08:08.300 --> 00:08:09.660
was the day I met Valerie.

184
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:10.920
There it is.

185
00:08:11.430 --> 00:08:13.089
She's lying. Come on, you've got something.

186
00:08:14.949 --> 00:08:17.899
Okay, well, we were talking about how you volunteered at Rockfest,

187
00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:20.079
and there's some cool people you've met.

188
00:08:20.100 --> 00:08:22.930
Actually, I have another one for me, for after.

189
00:08:24.189 --> 00:08:27.290
I think right now it's just, like, I've gotten to

190
00:08:27.550 --> 00:08:29.889
meet and be friends with so many artists that I

191
00:08:29.949 --> 00:08:33.759
grew up, like, obsessing over. And now I, like, have

192
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:36.200
them in my phone and they're my friends. And it's, like,

193
00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:38.639
that never, like, that will never get old to me.

194
00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:41.080
It's very strange to, like, hang out with someone that

195
00:08:41.100 --> 00:08:43.470
you listen to as, like, a child, you know?

196
00:08:43.490 --> 00:08:45.169
No doubt. No doubt.

197
00:08:45.470 --> 00:08:48.389
It's funny to, like, scroll through my phone, like... Oh,

198
00:08:48.429 --> 00:08:49.049
this is funny.

199
00:08:49.070 --> 00:08:51.169
I'm totally going to send this to Jarrett from Bowling

200
00:08:51.190 --> 00:08:53.350
Horse Zoo. I'll send him a happy birthday or a

201
00:08:53.389 --> 00:08:53.809
funny thing.

202
00:08:53.850 --> 00:08:56.870
Or a gob. I love harassing Theo.

203
00:08:58.190 --> 00:09:01.049
You know, on that same note, what blows my mind

204
00:09:01.090 --> 00:09:03.149
all the time, too, is there's times I'll be out

205
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:06.000
in the crowd after I'm done with interviews, and there

206
00:09:06.019 --> 00:09:10.399
could be like 50, 100,000 people, and some band member

207
00:09:11.059 --> 00:09:13.840
who I'm friendly with comes and he's like, hey, what's up,

208
00:09:13.940 --> 00:09:16.720
Pipe Man? And I'm looking, I'm like, who the fuck

209
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:17.220
was that?

210
00:09:18.149 --> 00:09:19.039
Happens to me all the time.

211
00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:24.100
Right? It's like you're in a different environment. You know

212
00:09:24.179 --> 00:09:27.220
who they are, but you can't place it.

213
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:30.169
Well, when you're interviewing a ton of different artists all

214
00:09:30.210 --> 00:09:32.110
day and then you're also seeing, watching a ton of

215
00:09:32.129 --> 00:09:33.850
different bands and then you know a ton of different

216
00:09:33.870 --> 00:09:36.769
people in the crowd too, I imagine that gets overwhelming

217
00:09:37.429 --> 00:09:38.269
or daunting perhaps.

218
00:09:38.669 --> 00:09:41.879
It's just weird. It's like... You just sit there and go,

219
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:44.830
I know who that is. Oh, fuck. That's who it was.

220
00:09:44.850 --> 00:09:46.230
You're talking like full brain fart.

221
00:09:46.490 --> 00:09:48.309
Oh, yeah. Totally. All the time.

222
00:09:48.330 --> 00:09:48.909
It's rock and roll.

223
00:09:48.929 --> 00:09:50.850
Who gives a shit? All the time. Or it's like,

224
00:09:51.230 --> 00:09:53.710
I'll sit out with our set, like wear makeup on

225
00:09:53.750 --> 00:09:55.769
stage and I'll sit with them and stand with them

226
00:09:55.809 --> 00:09:59.049
in GA to watch a set. And I laugh because

227
00:09:59.269 --> 00:10:03.570
nobody knows. it's them. You know? It's like, everybody's like,

228
00:10:03.929 --> 00:10:07.769
nobody has a clue. Or like, times like, I've hung

229
00:10:07.830 --> 00:10:10.889
out with GWAR without their costumes, and I'm just laughing

230
00:10:10.929 --> 00:10:14.279
that they'll pull shit that people should know it's GWAR,

231
00:10:14.899 --> 00:10:17.259
you know? And they don't know. Like, it's happened during

232
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:20.990
interviews where they're like, hey, hey, Give me to some

233
00:10:21.049 --> 00:10:23.690
other media. Give me your Gubby Bears. They sound just

234
00:10:23.769 --> 00:10:27.549
like Blothar and Gwar and like nobody knows. I love

235
00:10:27.590 --> 00:10:28.070
that part.

236
00:10:28.429 --> 00:10:28.789
That's awesome.

237
00:10:29.450 --> 00:10:31.549
What's your favorite part about Warped Tour?

238
00:10:33.509 --> 00:10:35.990
I like the community. I like that we're all here

239
00:10:36.070 --> 00:10:38.429
for punk rock and I mean ska a little bit too,

240
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:38.769
I guess.

241
00:10:39.389 --> 00:10:40.320
But that's punk too.

242
00:10:40.509 --> 00:10:41.909
Absolutely. I'm just making jokes.

243
00:10:42.250 --> 00:10:42.500
I know.

244
00:10:42.620 --> 00:10:44.759
Because we all love to rag on ska music, right?

245
00:10:45.350 --> 00:10:45.590
Exactly.

246
00:10:45.629 --> 00:10:47.590
It's like, if you honk at me, we're starting a

247
00:10:47.610 --> 00:10:49.970
ska band and you're in it now. I saw that

248
00:10:50.149 --> 00:10:51.360
meme the other day. It was hilarious.

249
00:10:52.169 --> 00:10:54.259
I just love the sense of community, though, because it's

250
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:56.700
not very often that, I mean, for us, I guess

251
00:10:56.740 --> 00:10:58.919
it is. But when we're going to a concert, you

252
00:10:58.940 --> 00:11:01.240
go to like a big, giant punk rock festival where

253
00:11:01.259 --> 00:11:04.700
it's all the same kind of, what's the.

254
00:11:04.659 --> 00:11:05.379
Word I'm looking for?

255
00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:09.419
The scope i don't know um like we play other

256
00:11:09.470 --> 00:11:11.429
festivals and there's a whole bunch of different types of

257
00:11:11.470 --> 00:11:13.769
bands and they're all amazing but yeah it's fun to

258
00:11:13.789 --> 00:11:18.590
play a solely like punk rock uh festival like this

259
00:11:18.690 --> 00:11:20.289
it's you know i was thinking about this the other

260
00:11:20.330 --> 00:11:21.950
night too though it's it's the warp tour it's not

261
00:11:21.990 --> 00:11:25.129
the warped tour festival i was thinking about that what's

262
00:11:25.789 --> 00:11:27.789
but anyways um i don't know why i didn't talk

263
00:11:27.820 --> 00:11:28.970
about brain farts it's.

264
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:32.919
So iconic it's like the most iconic punk rock, rock

265
00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:34.179
and roll festival.

266
00:11:33.899 --> 00:11:34.580
I can think of.

267
00:11:34.899 --> 00:11:37.100
It's a dream come true to be able to play

268
00:11:37.220 --> 00:11:38.990
the only Canadian date that they have.

269
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:40.350
I know, that's pretty cool.

270
00:11:40.549 --> 00:11:46.090
That is badass. Okay, so now they're bringing back MySpace too.

271
00:11:46.710 --> 00:11:49.990
Fun fact, actually in 2006 I played at the Vans

272
00:11:50.009 --> 00:11:52.360
Warped Tour in Barrie, Ontario in the MySpace tent.

273
00:11:52.899 --> 00:11:53.779
Nice.

274
00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:55.879
You jealous?

275
00:11:56.840 --> 00:12:00.299
And is Tom still your friend? What's that? Is Tom

276
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:01.120
still your friend?

277
00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:03.710
He would still be in my top eight if my

278
00:12:03.970 --> 00:12:07.009
MySpace page wasn't, like, a disaster right now. It's still there.

279
00:12:07.110 --> 00:12:09.990
It's just, like, it doesn't load. And I thought that

280
00:12:10.309 --> 00:12:13.169
website was dead. But I'm kind of pumped it's coming back.

281
00:12:13.690 --> 00:12:17.110
I'm so excited for the high angles again, you know? Like,

282
00:12:17.129 --> 00:12:18.769
I'm ready for that. I'm ready to have Tom in

283
00:12:18.789 --> 00:12:20.450
my top eight. I'm ready to get rid of Jeffree

284
00:12:20.470 --> 00:12:21.450
Star for my top eight.

285
00:12:21.649 --> 00:12:23.149
Let me learn some HTML.

286
00:12:23.169 --> 00:12:24.370
Yeah.

287
00:12:24.549 --> 00:12:24.809
Right?

288
00:12:24.929 --> 00:12:28.100
I had my cursor was black with blue electric lightning

289
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:28.769
going around it.

290
00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:30.600
I put that HTML in the page.

291
00:12:30.820 --> 00:12:31.980
I love it. That's so cool.

292
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:33.320
I feel like the top eight, too, is going to

293
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:35.639
cause a lot of drama in relationships.

294
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:38.580
Oh, my God. I can't wait. I'm sorry. I can't wait.

295
00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:39.639
I'm so excited for that.

296
00:12:39.659 --> 00:12:42.470
I can't wait to designer ban top eight and kick

297
00:12:42.509 --> 00:12:44.009
people off when they piss us off.

298
00:12:44.070 --> 00:12:45.690
Oh, my God. Cut from top eight.

299
00:12:46.250 --> 00:12:50.389
Nice. Great. That's better than blocking somebody. Yeah. Because when

300
00:12:50.429 --> 00:12:53.929
they're removed from the top eight, they know. Absolutely. Absolutely.

301
00:12:54.850 --> 00:12:57.450
That band was on Andy Queen's Top 8 last week.

302
00:12:57.509 --> 00:12:59.710
Now they're gone. What happened? What's the tea there?

303
00:12:59.730 --> 00:13:04.149
We're just like nonchalantly talking shit through our MySpace Top 8.

304
00:13:04.149 --> 00:13:04.870
It's great.

305
00:13:05.309 --> 00:13:08.539
Oh my God. It is great to be in 2026

306
00:13:08.539 --> 00:13:10.399
talking about MySpace and Warped Tour.

307
00:13:10.759 --> 00:13:12.700
You know what? Didn't see that coming.

308
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:13.539
Right?

309
00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:14.720
Not on my bingo card.

310
00:13:15.179 --> 00:13:17.080
Exactly. But here you are.

311
00:13:17.240 --> 00:13:20.120
It's like 2006 again. 20 years later.

312
00:13:20.139 --> 00:13:21.120
I know, right?

313
00:13:21.139 --> 00:13:22.860
Except I can drink now.

314
00:13:23.509 --> 00:13:23.879
True.

315
00:13:24.340 --> 00:13:26.919
And we have, like, shade, so we won't get dehydrated

316
00:13:26.940 --> 00:13:28.139
and sunstroke. And weed is legal.

317
00:13:28.340 --> 00:13:28.519
Yeah.

318
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:31.019
And weed is legal. That's nice. We like that.

319
00:13:31.340 --> 00:13:34.460
See? Like, we did have some good things happen in

320
00:13:34.500 --> 00:13:35.620
the past 20 years.

321
00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:36.539
Yeah, true.

322
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:39.519
And one of those good things is you guys here

323
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:45.659
at Warped Tour. That's so badass. And tell everybody how

324
00:13:45.700 --> 00:13:48.360
they can buy your merch and check out all your stuff,

325
00:13:48.379 --> 00:13:50.120
because they can't listen to my show unless they buy

326
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:50.679
your merch.

327
00:13:51.580 --> 00:13:51.679
Um..

328
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:58.860
For our merch, cutloose.com. We are part of the Cutloose family.

329
00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:01.279
And you can buy our Andy Queen's merch there. And

330
00:14:01.299 --> 00:14:05.210
then I believe there's the band camp. You can buy music,

331
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:07.259
I think. I think you can buy hard copy music.

332
00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:07.519
Yeah.

333
00:14:07.649 --> 00:14:09.889
And then you can order online, too. We're everywhere.

334
00:14:10.389 --> 00:14:13.149
Like, for our physical copies of music, you can get

335
00:14:13.169 --> 00:14:16.690
through our label, our band camp. You can go to Sunrise.

336
00:14:18.509 --> 00:14:20.970
Rough Trade in Europe. We got distribution there.

337
00:14:21.730 --> 00:14:23.509
So, yeah. Love it.

338
00:14:23.549 --> 00:14:25.129
Send us a message if you have any trouble.

339
00:14:25.750 --> 00:14:26.429
On MySpace.

340
00:14:26.929 --> 00:14:30.360
On MySpace, on our non-existent MySpace page. I can't wait

341
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:30.870
to set that up.

342
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:31.620
That's going to be so fun.

343
00:14:31.740 --> 00:14:34.500
I know, right? I'm just hoping like I turn it

344
00:14:34.679 --> 00:14:37.299
on and it's like back the way I had it.

345
00:14:38.419 --> 00:14:40.080
And I'll just keep it that way.

346
00:14:40.500 --> 00:14:42.659
I hope mine loads to where I left it.

347
00:14:42.659 --> 00:14:42.840
Exactly.

348
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:43.620
That's what I'm saying.

349
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:45.340
Because it's like the high angle.

350
00:14:45.100 --> 00:14:47.659
Photo, I've got black hair in it. And it's, like,

351
00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:48.470
in my bathroom.

352
00:14:48.529 --> 00:14:49.210
It's so shitty.

353
00:14:49.269 --> 00:14:52.250
It's, like, such a terrible quality photo. And, like, I've

354
00:14:52.289 --> 00:14:55.850
got that cursor. My username, I hope, is still there.

355
00:14:55.909 --> 00:14:58.149
It's a misspelled version of ostrich eggs.

356
00:14:58.210 --> 00:14:58.710
I can't wait.

357
00:14:59.590 --> 00:15:03.710
Oh, man. It's going to be cool. And you guys

358
00:15:03.870 --> 00:15:07.190
are going to rock Warped Tour here. Oh, fuck yeah, bud.

359
00:15:07.330 --> 00:15:09.429
You're the best band playing here today.

360
00:15:10.110 --> 00:15:12.240
Wow. That is quite the accolade. Thank you.

361
00:15:12.549 --> 00:15:12.840
We know.

362
00:15:13.710 --> 00:15:15.190
Oh, I like your answer better.

363
00:15:15.269 --> 00:15:16.809
I like her answer for sure.

364
00:15:16.909 --> 00:15:18.629
You know, I'm kind of jealous that she did that.

365
00:15:18.649 --> 00:15:20.190
You know what?

366
00:15:20.309 --> 00:15:21.389
We know. Thank you.

367
00:15:21.470 --> 00:15:22.190
See, there you go.

368
00:15:22.210 --> 00:15:23.210
I would agree.

369
00:15:24.409 --> 00:15:28.379
She confirms it. It must be true. Thanks a lot

370
00:15:28.419 --> 00:15:29.940
for being on the Adventures of Pipe Man.

371
00:15:30.100 --> 00:15:31.720
Thanks. Thanks so much for having us.

372
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:37.919
Thank you for listening to the Adventures of Pipe Man

373
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:39.399
on W4CY Radio.

374
00:15:42.990 --> 00:15:43.809
Thank you.
