00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:11.279
Hi, you have lent too, Yes, that's true, fee wow
2
00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:20.679
for you you. This is the pipe Man here on
3
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:22.839
the Adventures pipe Man W four C Y Radio.
4
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:27.079
And I'm here with Mick and Herb from Visions of Atlantis.
5
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:31.839
Yes, here at the Holy Ground of Vakan. Have you
6
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:33.240
guys ever played here before?
7
00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:34.799
Multiple times?
8
00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:37.719
Yeah? See, I'm not from here, so I didn't know
9
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:38.640
last time.
10
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:42.520
I think it's four years ago. Yeah, it's four years ago.
11
00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:45.960
When is the first time you played Vadkin so Visions
12
00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:46.799
played here?
13
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:49.079
I think in two thousand and seven the first time, wow,
14
00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:52.399
if I remember correctly, without us, without the two of us,
15
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:53.880
but it was a dozen yeah, two. I think it
16
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:55.799
was two thousand and seven. There are some videos on
17
00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:59.799
YouTube about it. Yeah. But last time we played it
18
00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:03.159
was twenty twenty two, and we even recorded a live
19
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:05.560
album that you can find on Spotify. All the platform
20
00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:07.400
is called Pirates over Vakan.
21
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:12.079
I love that. That is so cool. And so from
22
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:14.799
what you've seen so far, do you see any changes
23
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:16.239
from the last time you were here?
24
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:18.040
Did you see anything so far?
25
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:22.519
I haven't seen anything, apart from maybe the artist area,
26
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:28.040
which changes every year, and this year it seems especially organized.
27
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.239
And well, well, I like hearing that because you know,
28
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:33.640
I do a lot of festivals all over the world,
29
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:37.319
and the worst thing I ever want to hear is
30
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:40.640
when an artist has a lot of stress at a festival.
31
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:45.719
It can be very difficult. How do you find like
32
00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:48.319
from last time you played here and what you see
33
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:51.879
so far of how Vakin takes care of its artists.
34
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:55.159
So true to be told, because this is important for
35
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:57.640
the listener because they don't know. It's early in the morning. Yes,
36
00:01:57.680 --> 00:01:59.959
so we just arrived, so we still did our next
37
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:01.560
floored the festival exactly.
38
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:03.280
That's why important.
39
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:07.719
But I can I like we already feel like every
40
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:11.080
year it steps up. I have to say, like you said, well,
41
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:14.240
this is the holy ground, this is the festival in Europe.
42
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:16.639
I think together with Health Fest, let's give tribute and
43
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:20.360
let's mention this. I love health because it's growing. But
44
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:23.240
you know, vucking is valking. You know it's this is
45
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:24.960
the twenties, no, the.
46
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:29.919
Thirties, thirty fifth, thirty fifth, thirty thirty five years years.
47
00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:32.080
So it started when I was six years old, can
48
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:35.120
you believe it? And every and every time it steps up,
49
00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:36.719
you know it's it's it's unbelievable.
50
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.520
It blows my mind. It started like I'm interviewing a
51
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:43.120
band later that was the headliner thirty five years ago,
52
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:45.879
when it was like probably as big as this room
53
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:50.280
maybe yeah wow right, And so it blows my mind.
54
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:52.479
That's why I love about Europe too. You have these
55
00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:55.719
like little community festivals like this and health Fest. It
56
00:02:55.840 --> 00:02:59.120
start off as these small things and just become these
57
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:03.280
monster communities. I say community, it's not just a festival,
58
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:04.360
it's a community.
59
00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:09.400
Yeah. And as an artist here, you feel really welcome,
60
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.879
really well taken care of. It's always a pleasure to
61
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:14.280
be here.
62
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:17.759
See, that's so important to me. And I've heard the
63
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:20.360
same thing like at health Fest, like every interview I
64
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:24.039
ever did at Healthfest. I went the first time I did.
65
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:27.199
Healfest was right after covid with where they have three
66
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:31.120
hundred and sixty bands over two weekends, and people were
67
00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:35.400
telling me not one band went on late and everybody's
68
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:38.759
sound check was like five minutes and perfect, like and
69
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:43.319
that doesn't happen in the States.
70
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:45.560
Good, yeah, yeah, it's.
71
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:48.960
And I imagine vaking is probably on that same level.
72
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:53.080
These are these festival where you know, we use radio
73
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:56.800
microphones and you know wireless, microphones, wireless in years and everything.
74
00:03:57.319 --> 00:03:59.919
You can tell by the fact when the festival sends
75
00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:03.159
you the radio frequencies in advance and you don't discover
76
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:05.240
on site what you have to do, you know that
77
00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:07.400
this is going to be a well organized festival. This
78
00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:11.719
happens here, and this happens a tail festival. This is
79
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:14.919
so are signed to recognize when you can stay safe.
80
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:18.879
And that is true. Like as you're saying, I'm thinking, yeah,
81
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:21.720
that would be beautiful because if you just show up
82
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:25.040
like I didn't know anything this first time doing Voking
83
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:27.639
for me, and like every other festival, I know the
84
00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:29.519
lay of the land, I know where to go, I
85
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:32.000
know what to do. I didn't even know where to
86
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:35.000
go to park where I was supposed to park, like,
87
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:37.560
and I came in here and like nobody knew where
88
00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:40.920
the press tent was. I'm like, huh, but I found it,
89
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:44.920
you know. But it's like, if you have to find
90
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:47.240
out that stuff as an artist when you get on
91
00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:50.480
that's too much stress to have to do a show.
92
00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:53.519
So like what you're saying makes me so happy. It's
93
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:56.639
like it's nice to know ahead of time that everything's
94
00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:59.360
taken care of, so you can just show up and play.
95
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:01.040
One hundred percent.
96
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:04.839
But this is also thanks to our own crew, who
97
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:07.519
is has been on the stage for more than an
98
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:10.399
hour now setting everything up, getting everything ready for us,
99
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:15.560
and we are doing interviews, press, other stuff, and for us,
100
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:20.360
it's really right going on stage, getting our instruments, rocking
101
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:25.399
the hell out of Vakan and then we can eat.
102
00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:31.360
Yeah, right, don't miss catering after you play. That's why
103
00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:33.959
it's better to do the press now, because I know
104
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:35.959
a lot of times bands will do press after and
105
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:39.000
then they miss catering, and that that's rough. You want
106
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:42.079
to get some food in it. One thing I gotta
107
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:45.399
say is I brought the weather over here because I
108
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:49.240
don't think Vadkins usually this hot. And I feel bad
109
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:52.279
for you guys dressed up like that and being pirates
110
00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:54.879
and getting up on stage and giving it. You're all
111
00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:55.319
up there.
112
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:59.439
But we've done worse, Yes, we've done worse. So healthast
113
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:02.920
Probably half of it was hell like for real, like that
114
00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:04.680
that's the name, that's where the name comes from, you
115
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:07.319
And it was thirty eight degrees thirty eight degrees celsius.
116
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:12.279
So yeah, so that that was that was on the edge.
117
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:14.759
I think I wasn't the verge to pass out. I'm
118
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.519
you know, I'm not exaggerating, you know, I was saying, nah,
119
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:19.639
you know, I I mean, I'm a rockstar. And now
120
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:21.720
I was truly on the edge to pass out like then.
121
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:22.720
And I think it was the same for.
122
00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:24.160
You, right, Oh, I believe it too.
123
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:26.879
Yeah, And back then I was wearing a different outfit,
124
00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:30.959
which with lots of black letter not the best idea
125
00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:37.040
in retrospect. Three times I was really getting black before
126
00:06:37.079 --> 00:06:39.560
my eyes, black and gray and very close to fainting.
127
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:43.759
Oh, I don't doubt that, because like that first year
128
00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:46.800
after COVID, the first weekend of health as it was
129
00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:49.279
in fahrenheit like one hundred and four degrees, which I
130
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:53.439
think is like fifty celsis, and I was doing an
131
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:57.120
interview in one of the containers there, but it's all
132
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:02.839
the presense black and that undes are black. And literally
133
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:05.600
I was in reviewing John from Skillet. I could not
134
00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:09.000
even see him because my eyes were burning from the
135
00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:11.839
sweat going in my eyes. I was just sitting there talking.
136
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:14.199
I know where he was. I found out what was
137
00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:17.160
like to not be able to see, and you know,
138
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:21.279
it's brutal. So I can't even imagine an artist going
139
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:24.160
up and doing a whole set like this. So my
140
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:25.000
head's off to you.
141
00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:28.959
But I think it really helps that apart from some
142
00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:34.480
interviews and press stuff, we can relax and prepare mentally. Yeah,
143
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:37.480
and we have one hour of showtime. It's one hour
144
00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:42.160
of full speed ahead, yeah, pedal to the metal, and
145
00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:44.800
then we can relax again. It's not that we're on
146
00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:47.720
stage for three hours or more where we would have
147
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:49.199
would really.
148
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:51.079
You wouldn't make it the three You wouldn't make it
149
00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:52.160
the three hours. You know.
150
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:55.240
Tennis players have a harder life, that's for.
151
00:07:55.199 --> 00:08:00.040
Sure, especially in Florida. Like this is what it's like
152
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:02.959
in Florida all the time. Pretty much. We have two seasons,
153
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:05.800
hot and hotter. Those are our two seasons, and one
154
00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:07.879
is an hurricane season.
155
00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:11.720
And the humidity is way higher in Florida. Because yeah,
156
00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:15.199
we've been touring the United States quite sometimes and every
157
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:17.839
time we get to Florida, we're like, WHOA, that's really humid.
158
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:21.759
Oh yeah yeah, well listen, we say living in Florida,
159
00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:24.199
we say, to humidity is really low today When it's
160
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:27.720
at ninety five percent, that's low humidity.
161
00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:30.199
You have your own scale to measure humidity VISI by
162
00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:30.959
the way that but.
163
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:34.679
Like I just did Welcome to Rockville in May, and
164
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:37.960
we got evacuated three out of the four days because
165
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:42.960
it's hurricane season. So during hurricane season, you can guarantee
166
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:48.440
there's going to at least be a torrential lightning storm.
167
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:51.200
You can set your watch by it between three and
168
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:55.799
five o'clock like an alarm clock every day. So you know,
169
00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:01.360
I had like fourteen interviews cut because of weather. Yeah,
170
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:06.639
you know. And so but here I'm very happy because
171
00:09:06.919 --> 00:09:11.039
I've heard horror stories about the weather here and crossing
172
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:13.679
fingers it stays this way. I'll take the heat over
173
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:16.080
the mud and the rain and all that.
174
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:19.440
And the weather forecast looks good for the next days too,
175
00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:21.759
it does. Yeah, so it's gonna be a lucky addition.
176
00:09:21.919 --> 00:09:24.159
They it's well deserved. You know, they've done so much.
177
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.840
It's almost you know, Marphy's Low, because Valkan has done
178
00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:31.639
so many renovations to counterstrike the mud and the weather
179
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:34.679
in that they had the last year. So there are
180
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:38.399
like a lot of roads that have been they put
181
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:40.639
asphalt on it or something like, I don't know what
182
00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:43.960
exactly to prevent you know, the mess that they had
183
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.159
in the in the last years, and now they have
184
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:47.759
the best weather forecast since I don't.
185
00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:49.679
Know, I know, right, well, that's how it goes, right,
186
00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:52.519
And I did notice when I was driving into my
187
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:56.519
parking lot that they had those metal things down. So
188
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:59.000
that's cool because when I went to rent my car
189
00:09:59.039 --> 00:10:01.679
at the airport the other day, they convinced me to
190
00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:04.720
upgrade to a four wheel drive because I was going
191
00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:05.240
to vaking.
192
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:08.879
And I'm like, uh oh, yeah, but I mean for
193
00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:11.720
a festival. It's been running for forty five years in
194
00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:15.639
the same time for every summer. People have experience.
195
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:19.159
Yeah, exactly, they're used to it. It's just like me
196
00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:21.519
and Florida, Like I'm used to it, you know. So
197
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:25.000
it's like, listen, when I got the code read for
198
00:10:25.039 --> 00:10:28.440
evacuations during interviews at Rockville, I was like, yeah, I
199
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:32.120
was expecting that. I felt it coming. You can feel
200
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:34.759
it coming to when you're used to it. So let's
201
00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:39.000
switch subjects for a second. Let's talk video games.
202
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:44.240
Which is a very good bridge to the game you
203
00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:47.919
were playing Meek right now, because we did a collaboration
204
00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:53.399
with Sartazio Matis reaches Lee for Assassin's Creet for remake
205
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:58.960
the Wow Black Flag the Pirate one, and I think Mek.
206
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:02.559
Is freak enjoying that one now tell us about it. Yeah.
207
00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:04.799
So the thing is that I'm one of these few
208
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:07.679
gamers that didn't play the original Black Flag, so I'm
209
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:10.519
discovering the game with the remake, and I obviously took
210
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:12.879
the chance because of this collup that we uh that
211
00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:15.159
we released. It was released on the eighth if I'm
212
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:18.440
right of like ninth on. Yeah, so just you know,
213
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:23.759
a couple of days ago, and it's basically the remake
214
00:11:23.799 --> 00:11:27.039
of Drunken Sailor. The song is called Reckless Sailor and
215
00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:29.480
it's like a metal version of the of the Sea shanty,
216
00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:33.480
you know, and this entire vibe. I am a gamer.
217
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:35.279
I like, I like playing video games. I mean, I've
218
00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:37.639
been a gamer. I have to say he he is
219
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:40.879
the real gamer of the band. But I've been a
220
00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:44.639
gamer for for a lifetime basically, and I took the
221
00:11:44.759 --> 00:11:47.799
chance to check the game out and now I'm I
222
00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:51.080
feel like I'm addicted. I was like, do I really
223
00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:55.279
have to go to Waking No, It's it's not like that,
224
00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:57.759
but I'm I'm really into it. I think it's it's
225
00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:00.200
it's a fantastic uh. I mean it's a fantast the
226
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:02.720
game by default, the gameplay and maybe you know better.
227
00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:06.159
I don't think it's so much changed compared to the original,
228
00:12:06.360 --> 00:12:08.519
but the visual aspects are unbelieving.
229
00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:10.200
I'm sure that's the big difference.
230
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.679
I loved the original. I haven't come around to play
231
00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:16.639
the remake yet, but what I've seen and heard and
232
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:19.960
read in reviews, gameplay stayed basically the same. There's a
233
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:23.200
little bit more content, and I loved the original. I
234
00:12:23.279 --> 00:12:26.519
played it multiple times, and in my opinion, it's still
235
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:27.919
the best Assassin's crit.
236
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:33.399
Nice and since he says you're the true gamer. Yeah,
237
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:36.080
how'd that all start for you? How did you first
238
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:36.879
get into gaming?
239
00:12:38.679 --> 00:12:41.840
I think it's the fault of my big brother. I
240
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:44.360
got a brother that's nine years older, and I grew
241
00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:47.559
up in a Nintendo household because my parents were watching
242
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:50.159
the kids and that we don't play the video games
1
00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:11.279
2
00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:20.679
3
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:22.839
4
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:27.079
5
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:31.839
6
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:33.240
7
00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:34.799
8
00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:37.719
9
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:38.640

00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:52.399

00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:53.880
16
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:55.799
17
00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:59.799

00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:03.159
