I'm your host, Eric Andre. Duh.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
We got two absolute legends of experimental rock, Stomy and
Greg from Deer Hoof, with my partners in crime Derek
Beckels and Nick Rutherford riding shotgun. We bend all sorts
of sounds on this episode, talking about their bombs over
twenty years, bombs on tour, and what hot human excrements
they've had thrown at them on stage. The band's latest
twentieth album, Noble and Godlike in Ruin, is available to
(00:37):
stream everywhere except Spotify.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
They've been bending.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Sound breaking rules and making beautiful chaos for over two decades,
so who better to talk about musical disasters and glorious mistakes.
Speaker 3 (00:47):

Speaker 4 (00:57):
Ladies, please give it for Greg. It's tell me from
Dear and hosts and Nick Ruther chas old friends.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
I think there's too many people hosting this.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Yeah yeah, okay, so we're big fans and we I
have a podcast about bombing where I did anybody tell
you guys anything?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
You know? I yeah, that's why you need to know.
We just asked like about your worst gig of all time,
and I put I surrounded you guys with garbage, yeah,
Junkyard instruments to make you more comfortable.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
We just asked artists over there, like their worst gigs
of all time? What was the worst show you ever played?
Speaker 6 (01:44):
I think in San Francisco?
Speaker 2 (01:46):
What happened you guys started there?
Speaker 5 (01:48):
Yeah, but now you're just throwing it right under the
bus started bomb.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
And now you hate it. You turned your back on
the people of San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (01:58):
Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, no, you know.
Speaker 7 (02:01):
We used to play improvisation, like noise improvisation and then yeah,
and then I was on the floor heating like base
with my like with sticks and stuff.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
Yeah yeah, you know, just free, free improvisations. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (02:17):
And then there's like a really weird lady like like.
Speaker 6 (02:21):
Was on stage like this in front of me. My
head is almost on the stage, so she was like
ninety five ninety six start. Yeah, and there was the
bar called what not Igana?
Speaker 7 (02:35):
What's the the perry was working there.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
Yeah. But anyway, she's like.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Anyway anyway, crawling towards you had on the stage.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
No, she was right there.
Speaker 7 (02:52):
I was on the band, the band with a higher level,
higher level.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Was there a body attached to the head or is
it just.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
A it's ahead? But she's like, why don't you sing?
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Why said that's reasonable?
Speaker 8 (03:11):
Are you going to start?
Speaker 6 (03:11):
When you going to start?
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Pretty?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
People say every time this podcast.
Speaker 7 (03:17):
San Francisco, there are always this weird audience.
Speaker 6 (03:20):
You know, all the.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Reasonable question, though I don't know how weird that is
all the time. If you're banging on your base, when
does it start? When are you going to start?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Franciscans?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
We have stuff to do, woman, my mother, it's not
a dress for herself.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
When are you going to still been obvious that we
had started, I mean the passion with which we were engaged.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, has it been the same members the old Thomp
since ninety four?
Speaker 8 (03:47):
Not the passion however, just on YouTube since ninety four,
we we still have. Yeah, she joined ninety five and
immediately she bombed.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
And you're like, we gotta work with her for thirty
more years.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
She doesn't know how to start a show.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
I like, what.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
You want to work together for thirty more years?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
So what happened to that lady? Is she she died
shortly after that show?
Speaker 6 (04:20):
Probably she was just ahead.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah, it's hard miss after the day after your show.
Speaker 8 (04:27):
Yeah, do you remember the one time we played San Francisco?
We did return? You know this didn't scar us, permit?
Speaker 9 (04:35):
Did you leave your heart there in any way, shape
or form?
Speaker 10 (04:40):
What?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Okay? Now, now I regret.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
We're gonna We're gonna get him out of here.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Don't worry about that. We're gonna get him and any
Tony Bennett Reverend. He's sponsored by Old Lady Catheters.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Now, you guys all live in four different cities. How
do you guys function in a long distance relationship?
Speaker 11 (04:59):
And what is your deal with in San Francisco?
Speaker 8 (05:04):
Continue to like San Francisco and continue to return.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
That's not a very strong word. You don't love it,
though we love.
Speaker 8 (05:12):
My point is that there have been times, over the
course of our storied career in which we have played
cities to which we have never opted to return. And
one of those cities not so far from San Francisco,
(05:33):
but but another universe. In terms of audience appreciation of
what most people consider extraordinarily beautiful music, our music and
that is modesto.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Califno be has a song?
Speaker 8 (05:56):
Did that okay? Could you recite the lyrics to me
in full so that I.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Know I could do?
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Could you do it in Farsie?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I could do it in Farsi, but I can't do
the whole thing. No, I don't. I don't know. That's all.
That's the only fact. You really put me in a corner.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
That's what this podcast is.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I feel like I feel like a headless woman had
an experimental dy brought to you by Corners?
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Is it? Is it modesta like the Carrier Wife Capital
of the World is true?
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I think so it might be. That's not very modesto
of that. So I'm trying.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
To do the math and I can't put it together.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 9 (06:40):
Look modesto Spanish for modest I thought.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
We were.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Well, mister know it all over here?
Speaker 8 (06:54):
Whose flashlight was normally used to check identification, you know,
to to accurately judge a person's age and whether they're allowed.
This is in the door in the Modesto. Once we
started playing exactly it was the size there was four
(07:15):
bean bags in opening band was already sketchy biscuit I
don't mean the band was sketchy, but the band.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
They were, you could tell that they.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Didn't have full commitment. Let's say the Trevor who was
playing who was playing bass in that band, never really
took his coat off.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Long.
Speaker 8 (07:46):
Yeah, it's like in his mind he was already on
the drive back home. Once we got on there and
began the door Man's by the second song, his flashlight
was no longer pointed to identification. It was pointed at
the stage into our eyes, trying to get us to stop.
Speaker 11 (08:10):
Yeah, Dorman's laser pointing me like that, you're a drone pilot.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Wow, a doorman only venue, have you? They didn't know
they did no research exactly.
Speaker 8 (08:25):
No, this is this was in the mid nineties.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
There wasn't research was a bottom. You had to get
a book cyclop library. Yeah. The Internet was just like
ship stable to lamp posts. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Wait, so you've never been back to Modesta.

British version of putting a layer around somebody's neck.
Speaker 1 (10:16):

So that's why the act it's an active couple. There's
a gay sex there's a famous gay sex club in
Germany where the ship basement. You gotta see. It's the
it's the modesto of Germany. You know what I'm talking about? Sure,
sure you did it. People's mouth for urinals. Yea. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (10:44):
Bombing in Germany is that it's always a little more subtle.
They could say, oh, if they clap, they clap, they
make it seem like they clap. And then after the
show they come up to you and say, I liked
your show. The snare drum was a little too loud.
(11:05):
I liked the show. It was better last time, wasn't it. Yeah,
And this, this characteristic of the German music personality is
so well documented and famous that somebody actually started a
Twitter account called German Music Opinion. Everybody just writes in,
(11:32):
you know that, just at German Music Opinion, all the
almost you know xerox, you know, identical experiences they've had
post show with it with what theoretically are their own fans.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah, like critiquing the Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:46):
But I don't know if you consider it a bomb.
It's definitely a deflation, but not expose.

piss up in the air and like letting it shower
down on them.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
It's a nice minute. It's not.
Speaker 11 (14:12):
It's probably refracting in the life.

What are some of the worst nationalities.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
People? There? You go, you gotta go Steve Miller style,
Steven Miller Band ever played.
Speaker 8 (20:41):
I was thinking the same thing, but it was too
slow on the uptake.
Speaker 7 (20:45):
But you know our first Like when I joined the band,
there was a bass player, bass player Rob. He went
to g Allen show. You remember the story he didn't
His friend went show in San Francisco and then of
course on the stage and then picked up the pool
(21:07):
and punched what's friend in the face lunch.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
Yeah, so the poop goes.
Speaker 11 (21:20):
His story for you could imagine, I got like logistical questions.
Speaker 5 (21:25):
So he stuck it to his knuckles first.
Speaker 9 (21:33):
Smushing through his knuckles from the It's like brass knuckles.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
But ship it's it's not like brass.
Speaker 8 (21:41):
No, no, no, because brass knuckles. It's just one and done.
Kind of just at an event he played a contact.
I think this was more like boom and then kind
of opened.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
It was like a Jackson Pollock painting. Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
It was alright.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
And he ever watched his face again. He's a super fan.
He's a face. His face is going for one million
egg on his face, already on his face, digested egg
on his face.
Speaker 11 (22:13):
So you you've been in Deer Hoof longer than yeah,
and anybody really.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
You were the first.
Speaker 8 (22:23):
I wasn't the first, but the first, the first who
exceeded me by one week. Quit the band after you
heard that gg Allen.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Story after he was on the podcast.
Speaker 11 (22:38):
Has anybody who's quit the band then later been like, hey,
can I come back again in the band.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
You guys are killing it.
Speaker 8 (22:45):
We are we're bombing.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
What are you talking about today? Last night brother.
Speaker 8 (22:54):
So Rob moved to Berlin and I would say that
we we did have a bit of a a bit
of a what's German for faux pas?
Speaker 5 (23:06):
Folk?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
I don't know what.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Ah, it's a mistake. It's a public mistake, social.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
Embarrassment of a mistake that that causes you incredible amounts
of shame. And when I stepped up to the microphone
while opening for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who if
they weren't throwing things at us, it was only because
(23:40):
they were more invested in the booing that they were doing.
Or would checking in a in a in a hockey
arena in Berlin.
Speaker 15 (23:51):
Uh, readers from Canada, I woke up from my ancient slumber.
Speaker 8 (24:05):
Okay, yeah, so you know hockey, So you know what
the acoustics are like in an arena. You try to say,
you try to express your excitement by saying Berlin is tice.
Berlin is hot, and I'm sweating. I'm the drummer, and
you know, I'm working hard and I'm excited. You know,
(24:26):
the Chili Peppers are coming. This is going to be cool.
I'm sweating and I'm trying to describe the audience as hot.
What they hear in the blurred you know, it's someone
like that other band blurred acoustics. You've seen them, huge
fans you have to talk about.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
I don't want to go there. You don't understand.
Speaker 8 (24:55):
That's what you don't understand. And on no other podcast
would this story be appropriate to Is that in the
blurred acoustics of a Berlin hockey arena, Berlin is tice.
Sounds like Berlin is Yeah. Yeah, that did not improve
our standing.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
The audience.
Speaker 8 (25:19):
Ship into the microphone to amplify a million times, and
your people who only want to hear one Bili Pepper song.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Anyway, why are you saying Berlin is hot because that's
kind of strange.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
That's strange though, too.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
Your vocabulary being less limits.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Berlin is great.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
Thank you. That is so close to I understand.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
We come on on your show, tell vulnerably.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
We criticized.
Speaker 9 (25:59):
Sorry, we give you some German praise.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
We're just We're the girls and girls the movie. But
also you.
Speaker 5 (26:12):
Could say that Berlin is the ship.
Speaker 13 (26:16):
It was.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
What happens after you say Berlin is ship.
Speaker 16 (26:21):
Accidentally the already somewhat attenuated level of interest in our band,
which was not on anyone's ticket and was not on
the website where they were touring.

era of research in Germany. They weren't able to figure

Speaker 8 (36:09):
It sounds funny, but what's.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
The That's all I need, That's all I need. This
is a low bar production.
Speaker 5 (36:16):
She had at hell. You've never been on you never
performed drunk.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Well, well, hold on now.
Speaker 7 (36:27):
I think our first tour we did ninety ninety.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
Five, ninety percent of it was drunk. No, no, no,
it's just I thought, that's what you're saying, are very short.
Ninety percent of it that was fucking no.
Speaker 7 (36:40):
We didn't I didn't sing melody or anything, so you know,
I didn't improvisation.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
You didn't sing melodies.
Speaker 6 (36:47):
I used to just improvise just screen.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
You guys are real loose with it in ninety five. Yeah,
you were winning it for the first couple of years. No, no,
and then somebody goes, let's write a song just.
Speaker 7 (36:59):
First tour because you know I even last two years. Yeah,
you know, I joined the bond and we went on tour.
Speaker 6 (37:06):
So I don't have any you know what I.
Speaker 2 (37:08):
Mean memory of it because you're drunk.
Speaker 7 (37:10):
I don't have any kind of a professional attitude tours,
the you know, playing.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
When you guys start getting serious, when did the professionals
have kicked?
Speaker 7 (37:20):
Well, when I started, you know, singing.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Doing at first you started to see we're just screaming. Yeah,
when did you start? We have video of like the
earliest show. Yeah, can you can you look up earlier
like the earl like I want to see. I want
to see footage of like the earliest show.
Speaker 5 (37:41):
The Headless Lady who asked when you're going to start?
She actually, yeah, when you started to drunk.
Speaker 7 (37:48):
It's just I screamed so much. I had one beer
and then screaming I lost my voice.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
You know, so I'm careful.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
You know now you have and you whisper.
Speaker 8 (38:03):
I just thought of another great bombing incident. We're at
the Filmore. Okay, it's a big moment for us, the
biggest show we've ever played at that time. It's nineteen
ninety six or ninety seven, and we're opening for Sonic
Youth Dream Come True. We're playing the show. Unlike the
shows with the Chili Peppers. It's going quite well. People
seem to like it. We get to one really quiet
(38:25):
part of one song in which so Tony, for the
final time in our career, does scream, and it's an
extraordinarily exposed moment of utter silence in which all instruments
fall to no sound whatsoever. It's pin drop level of
(38:46):
concentration in the San Francisco audience, who now love.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Us Germany is ship Germany?
Speaker 8 (38:55):
That was not said, he to the situation, So tell
me does the scream? And then from the far end
of the film, were all the way at the other end, somebody.
Speaker 2 (39:09):
Goes, she goes, and then we hear this.
Speaker 8 (39:17):
It's like, it's so embarrassing, you know, it's the most
exposed moment imaginable. You know, it was like a total
like gong show, you know. And then we get to
the end of the performance and as we're passing sonic
youth like we're getting off stage and they're coming on.
They're like, oh did you see Nicholas cage? Heckling question
(39:39):
by the way show.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
And then we didn't believe it.
Speaker 8 (39:47):
And then our friend's roommate, our friend was at the show.
You your actual roommate, and she came to the show.
Tell that part of the story, you tell that part
really well, this is not this maybe the fifteenth podcast.
Speaker 7 (40:02):
She got on the bus on the way back, you know,
thirty thirty eight gear or something.
Speaker 6 (40:08):
But then Nicrol's cage came after she sat.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Down into Europe, but.
Speaker 7 (40:14):
Into the bus Geary thirty eight Geary bus where my roommate.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Was from What's going home?
Speaker 6 (40:21):
You know, because I put her on the guest list
and stuff.
Speaker 7 (40:24):
But she's like she doesn't help the coins, you know,
you know, classic Nicholas.
Speaker 6 (40:33):
You needed cash. You know, it's like, hey, someone got
you know that money for me. So like my roommates
I heard.
Speaker 8 (40:44):
Here, your roommate was the one to get it.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
Sounds like he was nickel.
Speaker 8 (40:57):
Wow, good night everybody.
Speaker 5 (41:00):
We gotta get him.
Speaker 2 (41:01):
Out of here. Oh I'm fucking dizzy. Wells left to
be said any other bombing stories you like to throw
in there.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
So we have people call in with problems and we
have the guests try to help them with their problems.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Okay, let's hear this guy's bombing story, because I don't.
Speaker 10 (41:25):
Know this is a So my brother and I we
used to go to the y m C A swummer
camp back a swummer camp consumer. You know, pretty white
lady you know she would take it. Yeah, the sleepovers
on the weekends. So I pull up, you know what
I mean, getting some pizza. I was like, yo, I've
(41:45):
never had five slices of pizza, so I pounded them in,
you know what I'm saying. Next thing, I know, to
go to the swimming pool for like you know what
I'm saying, the evening activities. Lo and behold a whole
pull full of like one hundred kids. You know, I'm
assuming that all of a sudden, the pizza started talking.
(42:08):
Next thing, I knew, I got five slices of cher
all over the British everybody gets out on.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
The one weird.
Speaker 11 (42:27):
So do you guys have anything to say to that?
Speaker 8 (42:31):
He said, that was a pretty white lady at the
y m c. A. He said he was going to
the y m c A.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
His voice was hot.
Speaker 8 (42:41):
Yeah, so where did he go wrong?
Speaker 2 (42:43):
Which he turned right? No?
Speaker 8 (42:47):
No, no, that was the result. What was the mistake?
Speaker 2 (42:50):
Five slices? Are you even paying attention? And he doesn't
normally eat five slices? He established that that's what guys are,
Just like I got a sound intelligence, So just throw
in some is there somebody? Is there anything better than
that haunting fucking what was spine shattering? Butthole clunching? Prison confession?
Speaker 1 (43:14):
Yeah, anyway, I'm getting the electric chair later, but I
wanted to confess this crazy pizza story a lot of
people before.
Speaker 19 (43:24):
Let me tell you a story about pizza. I'm about
to get lethal, but I wanted to make one, but
Judge said I could make one final from prison.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
All right.
Speaker 13 (43:42):
First of all, love the fact that this is a
seven one six number. Go Bill, here's my bombing story.
When I was in high school, I used to volunteer
around the holidays at UH, this daycare program for adults
with disability UH. And I remember one year, sixteen seventeen,
(44:02):
we were playing bingo with some of the adults and
the Wham song Last Christmas was playing and everyone was
kind of singing along to it, and I had been
chatting to this one.
Speaker 2 (44:13):
Guy playing Bengo with him for a.
Speaker 13 (44:15):
While and I felt like we had a good rapport
going on. So when the line give it to someone
Special came on, I thought it would be really cute
to point to him and sing the line. So the
song said give it to someone Special, and I pointed
to him and I said, like you, and this.
Speaker 2 (44:34):
Man looked me dead in the eyes.
Speaker 13 (44:37):
And said, the fuck is that supposed to mean?
Speaker 2 (44:41):
And I said, this is jazz. I don't know, and.
Speaker 13 (44:46):
I just thought it would be cute and funny. I
should mention that we all wore Christmas themed costumes, so
I had a big Rudolph nose on and my face
basically turned as red as that nose. So he proceeded
to tell me, you know what, you look special with
that nose on. And there are very few nights where
(45:07):
I try to fall asleep and don't think about that story.
Speaker 2 (45:12):
So, uh yeah, all right.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Well, Trouble Murderers called it Trouble Sleepy Murderers called it.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
There's a death row.
Speaker 11 (45:26):
In a staphole segment on the show for a while,
giving given.
Speaker 5 (45:30):
Guys a voice, I really appreciate.
Speaker 9 (45:33):
That you guys are letting people bomb when they tell
a story.
Speaker 18 (45:38):
There, I go, all right, listen up, we got some
special for you.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
Got a burning story that you're itching to tell about
when you bombed or absolutely fail in life.
Speaker 2 (46:00):

with my like with sticks and stuff.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
Yeah yeah, you know, just free, free improvisations. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (02:17):
And then there's like a really weird lady like like.
Speaker 6 (02:21):
Was on stage like this in front of me. My
head is almost on the stage, so she was like
ninety five ninety six start. Yeah, and there was the
bar called what not Igana?

Speaker 7 (03:17):
San Francisco, there are always this weird audience.
Speaker 6 (03:20):
You know, all the.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Reasonable question, though I don't know how weird that is
all the time. If you're banging on your base, when
does it start? When are you going to start?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Franciscans?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
We have stuff to do, woman, my mother, it's not
a dress for herself.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
When are you going to still been obvious that we
had started, I mean the passion with which we were engaged.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, has it been the same members the old Thomp
since ninety four?
Speaker 8 (03:47):
Not the passion however, just on YouTube since ninety four,
we we still have. Yeah, she joined ninety five and
immediately she bombed.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
And you're like, we gotta work with her for thirty
more years.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
She doesn't know how to start a show.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
I like, what.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
You want to work together for thirty more years?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
So what happened to that lady? Is she she died
shortly after that show?
Speaker 6 (04:20):
Probably she was just ahead.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah, it's hard miss after the day after your show.
Speaker 8 (04:27):
Yeah, do you remember the one time we played San Francisco?
We did return? You know this didn't scar us, permit?
Speaker 9 (04:35):
Did you leave your heart there in any way, shape
or form?
Speaker 10 (04:40):
What?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Okay? Now, now I regret.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
We're gonna We're gonna get him out of here.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Don't worry about that. We're gonna get him and any
Tony Bennett Reverend. He's sponsored by Old Lady Catheters.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Now, you guys all live in four different cities. How
do you guys function in a long distance relationship?
Speaker 11 (04:59):
And what is your deal with in San Francisco?
Speaker 8 (05:04):
Continue to like San Francisco and continue to return.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
That's not a very strong word. You don't love it,
though we love.
Speaker 8 (05:12):
My point is that there have been times, over the
course of our storied career in which we have played
cities to which we have never opted to return. And
one of those cities not so far from San Francisco,
(05:33):
but but another universe. In terms of audience appreciation of
what most people consider extraordinarily beautiful music, our music and
that is modesto.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Califno be has a song?
Speaker 8 (05:56):
Did that okay? Could you recite the lyrics to me
in full so that I.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Know I could do?
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Could you do it in Farsie?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I could do it in Farsi, but I can't do
the whole thing. No, I don't. I don't know. That's all.
That's the only fact. You really put me in a corner.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
That's what this podcast is.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I feel like I feel like a headless woman had
an experimental dy brought to you by Corners?
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Is it? Is it modesta like the Carrier Wife Capital
of the World is true?
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I think so it might be. That's not very modesto
of that. So I'm trying.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
To do the math and I can't put it together.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 9 (06:40):
Look modesto Spanish for modest I thought.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
We were.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Well, mister know it all over here?
Speaker 8 (06:54):
Whose flashlight was normally used to check identification, you know,
to to accurately judge a person's age and whether they're allowed.
This is in the door in the Modesto. Once we
started playing exactly it was the size there was four
(07:15):
bean bags in opening band was already sketchy biscuit I
don't mean the band was sketchy, but the band.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
They were, you could tell that they.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Didn't have full commitment. Let's say the Trevor who was
playing who was playing bass in that band, never really
took his coat off.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Long.
Speaker 8 (07:46):
Yeah, it's like in his mind he was already on
the drive back home. Once we got on there and
began the door Man's by the second song, his flashlight
was no longer pointed to identification. It was pointed at
the stage into our eyes, trying to get us to stop.
Speaker 11 (08:10):
Yeah, Dorman's laser pointing me like that, you're a drone pilot.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Wow, a doorman only venue, have you? They didn't know
they did no research exactly.
Speaker 8 (08:25):
No, this is this was in the mid nineties.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
There wasn't research was a bottom. You had to get
a book cyclop library. Yeah. The Internet was just like
ship stable to lamp posts. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Wait, so you've never been back to Modesta.

British version of putting a layer around somebody's neck.
Speaker 1 (10:16):

So that's why the act it's an active couple. There's
a gay sex there's a famous gay sex club in
Germany where the ship basement. You gotta see. It's the
it's the modesto of Germany. You know what I'm talking about? Sure,
sure you did it. People's mouth for urinals. Yea. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (10:44):
Bombing in Germany is that it's always a little more subtle.
They could say, oh, if they clap, they clap, they
make it seem like they clap. And then after the
show they come up to you and say, I liked
your show. The snare drum was a little too loud.
(11:05):
I liked the show. It was better last time, wasn't it. Yeah,
And this, this characteristic of the German music personality is
so well documented and famous that somebody actually started a
Twitter account called German Music Opinion. Everybody just writes in,
(11:32):
you know that, just at German Music Opinion, all the
almost you know xerox, you know, identical experiences they've had
post show with it with what theoretically are their own fans.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah, like critiquing the Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:46):
But I don't know if you consider it a bomb.
It's definitely a deflation, but not expose.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
So they just like taking a little break. Wait, so

Speaker 6 (12:06):
No, No, that was a Blur.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
You gotta start over.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
You know, it's just you know, in u K.

shy in Paris. Then he got to Vermont and Amster, so.
Speaker 9 (14:06):
It's not as bad as it sounded. They're just throwing
piss up in the air and like letting it shower
down on them.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
It's a nice minute. It's not.
Speaker 11 (14:12):
It's probably refracting in the life.
Speaker 5 (14:20):
That's a sign of respect.

book your own tour, there was this fucking phone book
called Book your Own Life that had the phone numbers
(15:07):
of every single punk, every venue, and every every band member. Yeah,
it was basically.
Speaker 9 (15:15):
Every place that was basically was every place that was
going out of business that would let a band play.

What are some of the worst nationalities.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
People? There? You go, you gotta go Steve Miller style,
Steven Miller Band ever played.
Speaker 8 (20:41):
I was thinking the same thing, but it was too
slow on the uptake.
Speaker 7 (20:45):
But you know our first Like when I joined the band,
there was a bass player, bass player Rob. He went
to g Allen show. You remember the story he didn't
His friend went show in San Francisco and then of
course on the stage and then picked up the pool
(21:07):
and punched what's friend in the face lunch.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
Yeah, so the poop goes.
Speaker 11 (21:20):
His story for you could imagine, I got like logistical questions.
Speaker 5 (21:25):
So he stuck it to his knuckles first.
Speaker 9 (21:33):
Smushing through his knuckles from the It's like brass knuckles.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
But ship it's it's not like brass.
Speaker 8 (21:41):
No, no, no, because brass knuckles. It's just one and done.
Kind of just at an event he played a contact.
I think this was more like boom and then kind
of opened.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
It was like a Jackson Pollock painting. Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
It was alright.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
And he ever watched his face again. He's a super fan.
He's a face. His face is going for one million
egg on his face, already on his face, digested egg
on his face.
Speaker 11 (22:13):
So you you've been in Deer Hoof longer than yeah,
and anybody really.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
You were the first.
Speaker 8 (22:23):
I wasn't the first, but the first, the first who
exceeded me by one week. Quit the band after you
heard that gg Allen.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Story after he was on the podcast.
Speaker 11 (22:38):
Has anybody who's quit the band then later been like, hey,
can I come back again in the band.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
You guys are killing it.
Speaker 8 (22:45):
We are we're bombing.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
What are you talking about today? Last night brother.
Speaker 8 (22:54):
So Rob moved to Berlin and I would say that
we we did have a bit of a a bit
of a what's German for faux pas?
Speaker 5 (23:06):
Folk?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
I don't know what.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Ah, it's a mistake. It's a public mistake, social.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
Embarrassment of a mistake that that causes you incredible amounts
of shame. And when I stepped up to the microphone
while opening for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who if
they weren't throwing things at us, it was only because
(23:40):
they were more invested in the booing that they were doing.
Or would checking in a in a in a hockey
arena in Berlin.
Speaker 15 (23:51):
Uh, readers from Canada, I woke up from my ancient slumber.
Speaker 8 (24:05):
Okay, yeah, so you know hockey, So you know what
the acoustics are like in an arena. You try to say,
you try to express your excitement by saying Berlin is tice.
Berlin is hot, and I'm sweating. I'm the drummer, and
you know, I'm working hard and I'm excited. You know,
(24:26):
the Chili Peppers are coming. This is going to be cool.
I'm sweating and I'm trying to describe the audience as hot.
What they hear in the blurred you know, it's someone
like that other band blurred acoustics. You've seen them, huge
fans you have to talk about.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
I don't want to go there. You don't understand.
Speaker 8 (24:55):
That's what you don't understand. And on no other podcast
would this story be appropriate to Is that in the
blurred acoustics of a Berlin hockey arena, Berlin is tice.
Sounds like Berlin is Yeah. Yeah, that did not improve
our standing.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
The audience.
Speaker 8 (25:19):
Ship into the microphone to amplify a million times, and
your people who only want to hear one Bili Pepper song.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Anyway, why are you saying Berlin is hot because that's
kind of strange.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
That's strange though, too.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
Your vocabulary being less limits.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Berlin is great.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
Thank you. That is so close to I understand.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
We come on on your show, tell vulnerably.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
We criticized.
Speaker 9 (25:59):
Sorry, we give you some German praise.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
We're just We're the girls and girls the movie. But
also you.
Speaker 5 (26:12):
Could say that Berlin is the ship.
Speaker 13 (26:16):
It was.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
What happens after you say Berlin is ship.
Speaker 16 (26:21):
Accidentally the already somewhat attenuated level of interest in our band,
which was not on anyone's ticket and was not on
the website where they were touring.
Speaker 8 (26:36):
Yes, but full tour, yes, but this was before the
era of research in Germany. They weren't able to figure
out that we were on the tour. They thought they were.
They The thing is I started. They did not like it.
Version longer, version is the.
Speaker 7 (26:57):
All Every opener is for red pippers. I don't think
fans like open.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
They don't like they want to see they paid for
who they want to see you open.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
They're angry, you think.
Speaker 11 (27:10):
Just then this shoeless hippie comes up.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
Yeah, they don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
How to start this show.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
They mean her there's than you to, right, Who are
they mean her to?
Speaker 6 (27:23):
I don't really. I mean, they're so far away from the.
Speaker 9 (27:27):
State associated so you don't care.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Like but he's like Berlady ship us a.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Sh and I don't care for the red Chili Peppers
and I'm like, Hey, the Germans do like ship. Yeah,
they do like ship.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
So it could have been a it could have been
a you know, Grand Slam, but it sounds like this
show is not The show is not good.
Speaker 8 (28:04):
It became less uncomfortable when I saw the same audience
also totally bored and looking at their phones throughout the
entire chili until they hit one of two songs. O man,
So yeah, it was what was.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
The song that they came to hear Californication dream of Telephone.

Ninety percent of it that was fucking no.

Speaker 7 (37:20):
Well, when I started, you know, singing.
Speaker 2 (37:25):

Speaker 5 (37:41):
The Headless Lady who asked when you're going to start?
She actually, yeah, when you started to drunk.
Speaker 7 (37:48):
It's just I screamed so much. I had one beer
and then screaming I lost my voice.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
You know, so I'm careful.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
You know now you have and you whisper.
Speaker 8 (38:03):
I just thought of another great bombing incident. We're at
the Filmore. Okay, it's a big moment for us, the
biggest show we've ever played at that time. It's nineteen
ninety six or ninety seven, and we're opening for Sonic
Youth Dream Come True. We're playing the show. Unlike the
shows with the Chili Peppers. It's going quite well. People
seem to like it. We get to one really quiet
(38:25):
part of one song in which so Tony, for the
final time in our career, does scream, and it's an
extraordinarily exposed moment of utter silence in which all instruments
fall to no sound whatsoever. It's pin drop level of
(38:46):
concentration in the San Francisco audience, who now love.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Us Germany is ship Germany?
Speaker 8 (38:55):
That was not said, he to the situation, So tell
me does the scream? And then from the far end
of the film, were all the way at the other end, somebody.
Speaker 2 (39:09):
Goes, she goes, and then we hear this.
Speaker 8 (39:17):
It's like, it's so embarrassing, you know, it's the most
exposed moment imaginable. You know, it was like a total
like gong show, you know. And then we get to
the end of the performance and as we're passing sonic
youth like we're getting off stage and they're coming on.
They're like, oh did you see Nicholas cage? Heckling question
(39:39):
by the way show.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
And then we didn't believe it.
Speaker 8 (39:47):
And then our friend's roommate, our friend was at the show.
You your actual roommate, and she came to the show.
Tell that part of the story, you tell that part
really well, this is not this maybe the fifteenth podcast.
Speaker 7 (40:02):
She got on the bus on the way back, you know,
thirty thirty eight gear or something.
Speaker 6 (40:08):
But then Nicrol's cage came after she sat.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Down into Europe, but.
Speaker 7 (40:14):
Into the bus Geary thirty eight Geary bus where my roommate.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Was from What's going home?
Speaker 6 (40:21):
You know, because I put her on the guest list
and stuff.
Speaker 7 (40:24):
But she's like she doesn't help the coins, you know,
you know, classic Nicholas.
Speaker 6 (40:33):
You needed cash. You know, it's like, hey, someone got
you know that money for me. So like my roommates
I heard.
Speaker 8 (40:44):
Here, your roommate was the one to get it.
Speaker 2 (40:52):

Speaker 8 (40:57):
Wow, good night everybody.
Speaker 5 (41:00):

Speaker 2 (41:01):
Out of here. Oh I'm fucking dizzy. Wells left to
be said any other bombing stories you like to throw
in there.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
So we have people call in with problems and we
have the guests try to help them with their problems.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Okay, let's hear this guy's bombing story, because I don't.
Speaker 10 (41:25):
Know this is a So my brother and I we
used to go to the y m C A swummer
camp back a swummer camp consumer. You know, pretty white
lady you know she would take it. Yeah, the sleepovers
on the weekends. So I pull up, you know what
I mean, getting some pizza. I was like, yo, I've
(41:45):
never had five slices of pizza, so I pounded them in,
you know what I'm saying. Next thing, I know, to
go to the swimming pool for like you know what
I'm saying, the evening activities. Lo and behold a whole
pull full of like one hundred kids. You know, I'm
assuming that all of a sudden, the pizza started talking.
(42:08):
Next thing, I knew, I got five slices of cher
all over the British everybody gets out on.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
The one weird.
Speaker 11 (42:27):
So do you guys have anything to say to that?
Speaker 8 (42:31):
He said, that was a pretty white lady at the
y m c. A. He said he was going to
the y m c A.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
His voice was hot.
Speaker 8 (42:41):
Yeah, so where did he go wrong?
Speaker 2 (42:43):
Which he turned right? No?
Speaker 8 (42:47):
No, no, that was the result. What was the mistake?
Speaker 2 (42:50):
Five slices? Are you even paying attention? And he doesn't
normally eat five slices? He established that that's what guys are,
Just like I got a sound intelligence, So just throw
in some is there somebody? Is there anything better than
that haunting fucking what was spine shattering? Butthole clunching? Prison confession?
Speaker 1 (43:14):
Yeah, anyway, I'm getting the electric chair later, but I
wanted to confess this crazy pizza story a lot of
people before.
Speaker 19 (43:24):
Let me tell you a story about pizza. I'm about
to get lethal, but I wanted to make one, but
Judge said I could make one final from prison.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
All right.
Speaker 13 (43:42):
First of all, love the fact that this is a
seven one six number. Go Bill, here's my bombing story.
When I was in high school, I used to volunteer
around the holidays at UH, this daycare program for adults
with disability UH. And I remember one year, sixteen seventeen,
(44:02):
we were playing bingo with some of the adults and
the Wham song Last Christmas was playing and everyone was
kind of singing along to it, and I had been
chatting to this one.
Speaker 2 (44:13):
Guy playing Bengo with him for a.
Speaker 13 (44:15):
While and I felt like we had a good rapport
going on. So when the line give it to someone
Special came on, I thought it would be really cute
to point to him and sing the line. So the
song said give it to someone Special, and I pointed
to him and I said, like you, and this.
Speaker 2 (44:34):
Man looked me dead in the eyes.
Speaker 13 (44:37):
And said, the fuck is that supposed to mean?
Speaker 2 (44:41):
And I said, this is jazz. I don't know, and.
Speaker 13 (44:46):
I just thought it would be cute and funny. I
should mention that we all wore Christmas themed costumes, so
I had a big Rudolph nose on and my face
basically turned as red as that nose. So he proceeded
to tell me, you know what, you look special with
that nose on. And there are very few nights where
(45:07):
I try to fall asleep and don't think about that story.
Speaker 2 (45:12):
So, uh yeah, all right.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Well, Trouble Murderers called it Trouble Sleepy Murderers called it.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
There's a death row.
Speaker 11 (45:26):
In a staphole segment on the show for a while,
giving given.
Speaker 5 (45:30):
Guys a voice, I really appreciate.
Speaker 9 (45:33):
That you guys are letting people bomb when they tell
a story.
Speaker 18 (45:38):
There, I go, all right, listen up, we got some
special for you.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
Got a burning story that you're itching to tell about
when you bombed or absolutely fail in life.
Speaker 2 (46:00):
Now's your chance to tell me all about it, Babo.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
I want to hear your worst, most cringe worthy what
the fuck was I thinking? What just happened moment? So
