Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hi, you love one to the censure? Why pray young?
Speaker 2 (00:39):
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe
Man W four c Y Radio. And I am back
from Bloodstock, and uh, what a what a journey it
was to get on the road from Bloodstock back to
the US. I'll tell you what. It always bugs me too,
is it so much harder to get into my own
country today than gain others go to the UK? It
(01:01):
takes me two seconds come to the United States. It
takes where I live takes about an hour. And I
got and they have to interrogate me like I don't
even live here, So I don't know. I think I
might be going to the UK more and more and more,
besides the fact I love it there except the bipolar weather,
but I love the festivals there in Bloodstock is one
(01:23):
of my favorite in the world. And we had this
band here that was at Bloodstock, but we didn't get
a chance to do the interview there, so we're lucky
enough to do it now. So let's welcome to the
show Insidious Void and it's Shane.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
How are you.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
I'm great, ma'am.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah, it's been a couple of days of recovering from Bloodstock.
You know, I don't think I'm still quite over it.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
We always get the the term you probably have heard,
the Bloodstock blues, where you just sort of you get
back home in normal life just doesn't just completely unacceptable.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
You don't want to be back at the festival.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And you know it's funny because so I go on
tour and I do festivals all over the US, UK
and Europe, so I definitely know those blues after every
single one, and it's like you kind of come home,
like I have a few days home now, and then
I'm leaving again, and it's like you come home, you seclude,
you got the blues, and then you're like, oh, do
(02:27):
I really want to go to the next one, And
then you get to the next one and you're like, oh,
I'm so happy I'm here, and you're sitting and it's
like this whole cycle of I don't know, bipolar mental.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Jumping all over the place in your head, you know.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Yeah, And it's funny because you know, my youngest storer
I'll bring her to festivals and after half a day
she's like that, I don't know how you do this.
Every weekend, I'm done already, and I sit there and I'm.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Like, yeah, I don't know how.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I don't like it's the best part of life is
doing it, but the worst at the same time.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
It's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Yeah, it's it's I always have this wee this kind
of joke that I think of every sort of every year.
It's no matter how much fun you're having at a festival,
whether you're comping or you're in a hotel or whatever
the weather's good about, it doesn't matter. You can be
having the best time, but you will always have that
one day where you wake up and you're just like
(03:31):
I have mynd just for a second, but it goes
like it goes away. I mean like I get it
every year where I'll wake up on the Sunday and
I'll just be completely like wrecked.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Especially you notice it was like this year, like you said,
with the weather, it was it was hot again this year.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
And you you don't get if you're sleeping in a tent,
you can't really sleep past eight o'clock.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
But yeah, that's just brutal.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
When that sun comes up and you're in a tent,
it's absolutely brutal.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, You've got about five minutes to get
out of there as soon as the sun hits the tent.
Otherwise you're just gonna get microwave. That's you know, so
stuff like that. But it's all part of the fun
of it, really, and like you know, you're enjoying yourself
at the time and then you come home and you
don't realize just how much you were enjoying yourself, and
(04:20):
it just.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yeah, I got off the plane and it wasn't ten
minutes before I was like, Okay, let me get back
and go back.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
I mean we had that long, that drive from from
Bloodstock up to karn Ryan in Scotland, and it doesn't
really whenever because I was the one that was doing
all the drive and I enjoy the drive, but then
it really hits whenever I'm I'm in Scotland. I've got
out of the car after six hours and I'm like,
(04:50):
I will turn this thing around and go back. You know.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
It's so great.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I mean I couldn't really imagine not doing festivals in general,
but Bloodstock in particular, as I missed it one year.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
I kicked myself for it. It was terrible.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
It is one of my favorites, if not the favorite,
for several reasons. First of all, like the people that
run it are absolutely freaking amazing. And I'm also like
in awe of like Vicky and everybody else that runs
(05:32):
it because it's DIY and it's still a major festival,
and like to put on a production like that from
a family business doing it DIY, Like, I am super
impressed because yeah, anybody could probably do it, but not
do it well, and they do it so well, and
it's so organized, and all I ever hear is positive things.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
You know, It's funny.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
So many other festivals I go to, especially in the
United States, you know, all you hear is complaints, and
those are the people that have loads of money and
corporations and thing else and not necessarily do they put
it on right whereas Bloodstock, I mean right down to everybody.
And then you know, this year was an emotional year
(06:19):
because you know, doing media, I dealt a lot with
Michelle Kerr, who is the publicist who is Bloodstock when
it comes to media. And then Rob Flynn did this
dedication during machine had set. You know, before that I
was in the pit and then afterwards I was just
(06:39):
standing there and they did that. I was like, I mean,
I had a tear coming out. You know, I went
from being being this masher in the pit to like
totally emotional with tears.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, breaking down a little bit. Yeah, no, exactly. It's
Bloodstock is just such a it. Obviously it's over the years,
it's grown and grown. But it's just I think, especially
once you are in the sort of VIP area or
the press area and it doesn't quite hit just how
much of a big operation it is and how La
(07:11):
actually managed to make it, you know, work, until you
you just get that even that little glimpse back there
and you see what all is going on that you
would never normally see. But yeah, no, like you were
saying that Machine Heads, that that tribute just before Darkness Within,
you know, that was that was amazing. I think I
always I never try to sort of say what the
(07:33):
you know, the best band of the festival is, because
I enjoy so many of them whenever there's like at
different times. But I said to everyone that I was
with there that at that point, at that time I'm
with that particular tribute, Machine had kind of stole it
from me.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
It was just it was perfect. It was like the
perfect storm. Everything just lined up.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
And I was like, yeah, yeah, I'm not going to
forget this one. That was brilliant.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
It's funny you should say that because Okay, like Trivium,
they're from my area. They're like two hours away from
where I am, and so I've seen them a lot obviously,
and I was blown away by their set because I
was like, oh my god, that's the best I've ever
seen them. And you know, they had all the guests
come up, including Rob Flynn and you know, and they
(08:25):
did the Sabbath song that like caught my attention because
it was like I was out there watching it and
I went back to media because I had to do
something for an interview, and I was sitting there and
I heard like the first note of Symptom of the Universe.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
I was like, holy shit.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
And then they just kept beating it after that, like
it was one thing after another. But then like you're right,
I mean when machine Head came on first of all
between the Pit the Wall of Death, but then that
whole dedication in Michelle, it was like, okay, yeah, I
(09:01):
had to give it to this one.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Yeah. It was just.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
It was such an emotional little drop in there that
it just completely tipped out and obviously, like you said,
Trivium there were amazed and I was. Actually I didn't
get to see as much of Trivium as I would
have liked. Same with Emperor because of where our set was.
There was a lot of moving like moving parts, so
I didn't get to see as much of them as
(09:26):
I would have liked. Obviously, it's not a big deal,
but still Yeah, and then go je.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Era, well they killed it too.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Yeah, that was I haven't seen a fireworks display like
that in the UK, you know.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Ever, that was just they were as well.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
That was I saw something like from from somebody from
media or whatever. Somebody said something I can't remember where
I got from, but it basically said, if you think
Machine had, you know, fireworks and stuff were something way
do you see Gojira? Yeah, and that was on point
(10:09):
because it was insane and I was even thinking about
the time again, a family run DIY festival that did
that kind of production and kept us all safe at
the same time.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Again blows my mind.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, I couldn't really, I don't think I'd be able
to get my head around how much planning is involved
to make something like that happen in the massive spectacular
way that it did, and like you said, keeping everyone
safe at the same time, it's that my hot goes
off to them.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
I mean that is. I've been to quite a few
fast most, but Bloodstock is still my favorite, you know.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I think the first year I went was twenty sixteen, Wow.
And there was only one year I didn't go, and
it was just because, like I went to another festival
and I didn't have the money and I was raging.
I was so so angry that I couldn't go. And
from then on I was just like, I'm never missing
that again. But that's not happening again.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
And so now you got to play yep, and that's
bad ass. Tell us about the road to Bloodstock of
getting to play at.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Bloods Yeah, well, there's, as you can imagine, there's a
lot of prep work that goes into it, as every
band's going today. We had a sort of idea that
we wanted to you know, drop something in advance, specifically
for Bloodstock, So we had kind of like a loose
or a roadmap almost laid out of what we were
(11:46):
going to be doing going forward as a band in general,
and then Bloodstock got kind of dropped into the middle
of it, so we rejigged it and we were working
on a single at the time, which we then actually
just sort of put it's gotta be done. So we
released that single before about a week before, called Magnitude,
(12:09):
and then obviously that but like we were pumping out
everywhere saying that we've got a new single, Light, We're
gonna be playing at a bloodstock, this is what we're
gonna do.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
But there's like that.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
That was just the you know, what we were going
to promote, going into the amount of prep work behind
it in terms.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Of how we're gonna get there, what gear are we
going to bring.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Obviously haven't been to the festival quite a few times
and seeing the e MP stage in many different ways,
I was doing all these things of how much space
am I going to have to work with?
Speaker 4 (12:41):
Am I going to be walking forward or back? Left
and right? All these week things that that I think about.
But yeah, it was a lot of work.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
And just on the Friday, you know, I went up
and I got the T shirts into the you know,
like in the morning, I got the teats into the
march stands and there was a lot of then you know,
into the VIP area, going out meeting people, and then
before you know it, it's six o'clock and oh shit,
(13:12):
it's time to go. Like we got to get everything backstage,
and it just all blurred in so.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Fast, and when it was done, I was riding such
a high. But I was like, I can't believe it.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
It's sort of four or five months of what set
list are we going to do, What merch are we
going to bring, what songs are we going to release
if any in the run up to the festival, what
little things are we going to get, you know, in
the run up to it, and then it just it
just happens, but you just it all just fades away.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
Sometimes that can be so stressful and.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Other times it's like, well I really enjoy it in general,
but sometimes, as you can imagine, things can get away
bit stressful. But you're just standing there on the stage
and that was just so much par Like I was,
I was feeding off that like so much. And I
know my drummer was sitting back there and he once
(14:13):
we got all the gear back to the car, he
was just like, I don't know, go back to work
after this.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
You know, it was just it was such a big thing.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
It was so much fun and it doesn't blow your
mind how many people are packing it in for that
stage that you played on.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Yeah, it's always full.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
I mean I think it actually is a really great
stage is especially for bands. You know, smaller bands like us,
we're probably a bit more used to the stages that size. Yeah,
so in that sense it's quite comfortable. But the crowds,
I mean you can sort of whenever you're on the stage,
(14:52):
you can just see like a sea of heads, and
then the sun comes down and you see that's the
end of the tent, but there's still people there and
you're like, well, what, it's just it's always full.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
It's incredible.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
It's a brilliantly stage I think a lot as well
as to do with where it is.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
It's right in the center of everything. Yeah, you know,
I love that.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
I love that stage too because it so it reminds
me of how things used to be where there wasn't
barriers to the stage. You know, like nobody can really
stage dive anymore on bigger stages because they have that
big separation.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
There's no way you would make it to the other side.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Yeah, you know, but it's just that that whole intimacy
That really got me into metal because I felt this
closeness to the band as a teenager, because I was like,
you could touch them if you wanted to, you know,
and sometimes you would get up on stage and just
(15:54):
be chill with them and stuff, and like that's really
that kind of can unity and that kind of intimacy
is what I think has made metal such a huge
family as it is today.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
And like as a as a bond, every now and then,
you'll you'll get offered up obviously as you as you progress,
hopefully you get to do bigger and cooler things. We
got the chance a couple of years ago to play
a big venue in Fast called the Mandela Hall, and
that's sort of uh place you're talking like, it's one
(16:33):
of those tall, wide stages of a proper.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Big stage, right. But then that's that's great.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
But I think like you do in that respect, I
like the sort of down and dirty being right in
the face of the of the bond.
Speaker 4 (16:47):
It's just a lot more personal.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
It's it's you're kind of disconnected right when you have
that separation, it's kind of like it's you and them,
where when you don't, it's like it's just all yeah, people.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
I love that, just right it right in the face.
It's just it's so good.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
And especially like we we got a pit at the
end of one of our at the end of our
last song, and just when you're that close and at
that level and you see that going on and you
realize that's for you, it just makes it.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
Yeah, it hits hard.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
It makes you want to jump in.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
If I didn't have a guitar in my hand, I
would have been getting stuck in. Yeah, a proper like
a moment of just I don't know, raw energy where yeah,
you almost sort of lose it a wee bit. I know,
it's it's hard to describe, but that's that's what I
sort of feel, and that's what I felt whenever I
(17:50):
was there. I saw it happening, and I was like, yeah,
we've had one or two marsh pits, but nothing like that, right.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Well yeah, I mean I wish we could go back
this week and Bloodstock.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Yeah exactly. My sunburn's going away, so I'm ready to go.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
There you go, and I'm I'm partially have my voice back. Yeah,
it's coming back slowly. I was talking people yesterday and
you're like, are you all right? I'm like, yeah, yeah,
I did forty seven interviews this week and I have
no voice, that's all.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
And actually, from talking to people in the in the
press tent and in the press area, I think you
guys came out of a little bit worse than the
Bonds because you're you're having to do so much more
talking all the time, whereas we have to get up
there and bark for thirty forty fifty minutes and that's.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Us, right, And you're yelling over the background noise too,
so it's like, yeah, you know, I'm yelling the whole
interview pretty much.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
You know, man, my.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Engineer even to like, when my engineer does the settings,
we practice in the studio, but we practice as if
I'm at the festival and I'm going, so he sets
my mic for me to be like, really, what would
be normally distorted? Yeah, if we didn't set it that way,
And because it's like for the other person to hear you, yeah,
(19:24):
you know. And the best way I could describe it
is like if you've ever been to a concert and
you're trying to talk to somebody next to you.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah, that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Yeah, exactly, and you're not just it's not just like
leaning into their their ear, you know, whenever you're if
you're interviewing someone, it's like you're standing there with the
microphone and that you sort of keep it fist to fist,
but you're not getting right.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Yeah, you almost have to read lips because if you're
getting in closed it would be kind of weird.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Saying yeah, well, some people uncomfortable with it. Obviously if
you've done it, I'm sure like me, and you've probably
done that a million times anyway, So it's just it
comes with the.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Territory of the second nature, like it's probably first nature.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, it would be a bit weird if someone didn't
do it, I'd be like screaming at them, right, you
know exactly.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
And you can always tell if you're a good interviewer.
You can always tell if you have to raise your
voice even more, because like I've watched the band's body
movement and their facial movement to determine whether they can
hear me or not.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yeah, yeah, I suppose the little cues like that, the
blank look coming across someone's face, or just them just
saying yes to the.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Question and not kind of like if you're speaking another
language and the reaction to the other person.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
Yeah, and you're so, Yes, that happens probably quite a lot.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
There's also, I guess probably people that aren't going to
be too as you know, comfortable just being interviewed in general.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
And yeah, you probably got all sorts of characters that way.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Oh totally.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
And a good interviewer just gets learns how to read
the person they're interviewing. And that's why I do my
interviews the way I do and set instead have some
boring script or whatever, I just let I just let
it take a life of its own. And that's how
you're gonna get the artists to really want to talk
because they're so used to hearing the same boring questions
(21:29):
all the time that they don't give two shits about.
So that makes for a hard interview, Like I don't
even know why I can. Didn't people continue to interview
like that, because to me, that would be very difficult.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
It be like pulling teeth.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Yeah, they're like, just let you tell a story and
then you'll tell me everything I need to focus on
by what you say.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Yeah, I think it's a great way because I'm very
much that sort of guy of things need to sort
of come naturally and be like and work naturally for
it to actually appear natural.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
You can't force that. So yeah, they sort of wonder.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I like bigger bands that maybe every time they're out
at at a festival, if they're landing up festivals back
to back or shows back to back, and they've got
maybe ten interviews every night, and it's the same script.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
Yeah, you I wonder did they just sort of sit
there and think, well, fuck me.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
You know, I say it when I hear other press
people that are like that, I say in my head,
in my head, I'm like, man, if I was the artist,
I'd slip my throat right now.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Yeah, it's gotta be like I've never I've never had that,
Like it's such a long string of interviews, but I
imagine that does happen. But it's just like as well,
it's it's the same sort of thing that I apply
myself just in a lot of things, like when I
go on stage, there's the in between song talk and stuff.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
I don't know what I'm gonna say. I just go
up and I say whatever.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
See.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
I love that because you know, doing as many festivals
as I do.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
You'll see the.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Same band play all the time, and I'll be with
people out in the crowd and I'll actually be saying
the stuff that the dude's gonna say in between songs.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Before they say it, and they're.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Like, how do you know what they were gonna say?
Speaker 3 (23:26):
It's it's magic, I'm psyched.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Really, it's like definitely didn't see his script in the
corner right exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
You know.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
So there are bands that sit there and they'll say
the same thing every time between songs, and then there's
other people like you, which is what I dig. It's
like just whatever happens. Like, I think every experience should
be different. I think that's where The Grateful Dead was
really smart, because you could not go to any Grateful
Dead show and it be the same as the last
(23:56):
one ever.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Yeah, why do they got the cultish following that like
travel and want to see every show?
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Yeah? Exactly, because it's it is, it's like different. It's
another thing.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
I read a few years ago that Pearl Jam did
something that one of their one of their tours, the
the set list for the entire tour was not set.
They basically just changed the set list at every single show,
And I was like, that's a lot of work, but
that would be amazing because you can't go and check
online you know what the set's going to be for
(24:32):
the next show.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
You just got to tick what you get. And I
love that sort of stuff because it's easy.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
To spoil things that way now just with with the
internet and all. But I love it when if Bonds
can do if they can pull off something like that,
I think it really really works.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah, and then somebody who's going want to go see
your show multiple times because they never know what they're
going to expect, you know, so well I already saw
them this here, you know exactly.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
I mean that it would annoy me if you like,
saw a band after two years of turning and they
played the exact same set.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
I know, some band's good, you got to get the
hits in there and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
But even even Iron Iron Maiden this year on their
latest tour, seemed to do load to like stuff that
they were pulling out of, like out of the catalog,
a lot of the like stuff from Killers and Seventh
Son that you wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Normally have seen all that often. And it was just
like I was.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Really annoyed that I didn't get to go to that
they were playing in Dublin or just outside Dublin, and
my dad was tying to meet you get tickets, and
I just couldn't afford it.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
That's another one. I was annoyed aut.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
But yeah, it's it's stuff like that, just keeping everyone
guessing because you know we're not it's musicians. I don't
think they're not like movie stars right for anything. So
I don't think like just sticking to script works.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
I guess it does, but it does.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
But it's gotta get old if you're as the artist too,
like playing the same set every single night, you know, yeah,
I would be bored to death, probably.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Exactly, and there's always going to be a battle to
stay fresh. But surely it makes sense then that if
the if you if you want to stay fresh, you
can't be saying the same stuff. You just gotta you know,
it's got to change. That's why I don't really think
about it. I might have like a loose idea that
at some point I need maybe need to make a
reference to a new song that we've that we've released, but.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
That's about it. I'll it'll just be like a mental
note in there somewhere. Oh yes, say something about that.
I don't care how you do.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
It, just do it right there, you go, that's the
way you do it. How do people reach out to
you guys on socials on the web? Go buy your merch.
You got some killer ass merch by the way, and
they can't listen to my show unless they buy your merch.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
Well, we've actually got that.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
We have the new T shirts for the Magnitude single
in the merch stand and since I've been home and
unpacking everything, I haven't had the chance to actually upload them.
But that's going to be happening, probably within the next
day or so. The new shirts are gonna go live,
and to be honest, I think there is and I've
actually got one sitting out here.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
You know. I like that? Oh yeah, I love Yeah.
I think it's class.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
I love a good green shirt no backprint on them,
But it wasn't about the back print this time.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
I just wanted to really punchy, colorful.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Well that's why I like about your shirts. Like, unlike
the typical metal shirts, you have cool colors.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
That they just pop out.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
So I'm somebody that I dress different ways, different environments
and it's like some of your T shirts. I'm like, oh,
that shirt could be a metal shirt, but it could
also be a go to the beach and party shirt exactly.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Yeah, I like I always said that. I just like,
you know, bright colors for them.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I mean as much as I like a you know,
black and white, like pretty, it's pretty standard I of them.
I've got tons of them, but I always found that
feel for me, a shirt really stands out when it's
got some really bright colors and.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
You see green, green, just pops.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
And I remember when we got the we had one
which had a purple yea what design on it. I
remember the first show that we played after we we
got that one in.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
And it was just flying out as a march stand.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
You know, everyone wanted it because it was just like
such a standout design, and that was what when it
really clicked me as I'm.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Going to do more of that. For me, bright colors
just sort of stands out.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
I do like just doing ones which maybe aren't like
focusing on that on bright colors, just because I like
variety as well. But for me, it's the ones that
really stand out are the ones that are you know,
the bright colored ones they're all available on We just
used band camp for the for the shirts and all
of our march.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
So the way we have it is on our Facebook
and our Instagram.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
We use link tree and you click in there and
it's everything Insidious Void.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
Is in there.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
So you've got the videos, you've got the music, and
march links to spotify everything that's all in there. So
you'll find that in all of the tiglines on our
social media, or if you just go on to band camp,
you'll find us there as well, and everything will be
up there.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Well, you guys kick the ass at Bloodstock, and uh,
everybody's definitely got to check you out because you're badass.
And thank you for being there at Bloodstock.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
And thanks for being on the Adventures of pipe Man.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
No, no problem, but all thank you very much for
you know, taking the time to have a chat with me.
You know, I'm I'm really appreciate it, and uh, yeah
it was. It was an awesome experience.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
I hope I hope we get the chance to maybe
do it again or even our pass crossing another respect
as well.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
But yeah, that's that's for the future right now.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
I still just enjoyed a little bit of the Bloodstock
after Glue.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
You know.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
Well, we will definitely cross bats in the future. I
hope to see a lot more of you.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Yes, yes, you will. There's a lot in the works.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
We're gonna play a sad song for you, all right.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
And I haven't told this story for the whole tour.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
But I'm gonna tell I'm gonna tell a story.
Speaker 6 (30:21):
That I'm gonna put up a picture of my friend
Michelle Kerr up on the screen right there. If you
do not know, Michelle Kerr was my press officer for
my entire fucking career here in the UK, my entire
career with Machinet. She recently passed away and it was
(30:46):
a very, very sad day. And I can tell you
the reason that I'm gonna tell this story is because
she was family. She was Bloodstock family, she was heavy
metal UK family. Most of the bands that you know
and love you've probably heard of because of that woman
(31:07):
right there, sliptknots, Slayer, machinethead Triviaan kill Switch, Engage, Hey,
you name it. She helped lift everybody up, man, She
helped lift.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Everybody up in so many ways.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
She helped make this entire music scene, this incredible, beautiful
community that lives here at bloodstock Man.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
She helped make it so.
Speaker 6 (31:34):
Ladies and gentlemen, please make some noise.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
From Michelle Kerr, thank you for listening to the Adventures
of plate Man on w for CUI Radio
