Hi, you have unto Yes, that's true.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
W W forre you young.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe
Man W four c Y Radio.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
And I'm here with I'm from pale Face. Nice to
meet you.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Nice to meet you here at bloodstock Man right. Oh
my fucking guy. I do a lot of festivals. This
is my favorite because it's nice.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
It's such a true metal festival.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Oh yeah, I heard that.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (00:34):
I also heard that this festival is at they festival.
So yes, it's like I'm even more stoked to be
here because of that.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Isn't that cool?
Speaker 4 (00:43):
Like crazy?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
See?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
I love that because I'm from the States. I do
all of them in the States, I do UK, I
do Europe. Then the States has become typical America, like
these corporate festivals that you know, it's just all about
the business instead of the music. And that's why I
(01:07):
love Bloodstuff because they're so into the music and they're
so into it.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Yeah, music should be a passion, definitely.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I've always said that when it comes to the creativity
of music, the business people do your business part, but
stay away from the artists. I came from the eighties
where I sat backstage and watch these artists being told
by record labels how their music should sound.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Creativity. You are to create, you know.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Of course there has to be business parts for that.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
Everything works right, but everybody has their part, right, it
has to be splitting up and listen.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
The best artists in the world have always just not
listened to those suits and just did what they want.
Ozzie perfect example, like Ozzy always was on the apologetically
Ozzie and did whatever the fuck he wanted.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Yes, definitely, you know, and that is.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Why he's the legend, and that's why he lasted so long.
And you would never think with all the Shenanigans that
he would have been who he is today.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yes, right, but that is why.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
What was that for you when he passed away.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
I've seen him every year since nineteen eighty I saw
you a year.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
I saw him at Randy Rhodes.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I knew it was coming though, Oh my god, because
even a few years ago, I said, Jaron was trying
to get him to retire. I'm like, if Ozzy doesn't
do live shows, he will probably pass away because he
just so loves being up there. That was amazing and
I felt that his last performance, he said better than
(02:48):
he had in years.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Yeah, right, like he was the same good. I thought
the same. That was actually surprised how good.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
They were, right, Like I didn't think Also he as a.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Person, he was so oh, barely find words for this.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
It's amazing. Like even like I was just saying the
last interview, I was seeing an interview with Tony Iomi
just this morning and he said, yeah, Ozzie used to
come up to me on stage, not of the crowd
would see, like backstay crowd, and he would make faces
at me during the show.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Nice, that's how it works, right right, I always have
a good time just having a blast.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Right because listen, if you're not having a blast in
this business, learn the wrong business.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
There's a lot of shit of the business.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
So you might as well be having fun. And if
you're not having fun on stage, how am I having
fun out there?
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
I love looking at bands and just look at him
at I'm more concerned than them having fun than playing
the notes properly.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
And that's key too. We were talking. I was talking
about that with somebody the other day.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
It's like, I like when bands fuck up on stage
because that means they're really playing the music. Yes, if
you're not really playing the music, it's not going to
be perfect. So for the listeners out there that have
never heard your music, how would you describe it? I
don't mean genre fuck genres that artists should not be
boxed into a fucking label.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
I think we already heaviest spent on this planet.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Yes, there you go.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
But we love to experiment, so you can expect anything
from our music.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
But we always try to follow this the heavy route.
But we do whatever we want to be honest.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
That's key right there.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
If you want me to put us in our box.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I don't want to box.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
I could not because we do everything.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I love it. I love it and so have you
played Bloodstock before?
Speaker 5 (04:36):
It's our ever first it's our first ever UK festival today.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Wow, Wow, unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
I also sell you.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
So you're gonna be on tour in Australia, Yes, which
I'm a surfer so I love that.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Nice. Have you been to Australia?
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Well, here's the flying thing.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
I've been all over the world, ewnans in Bali for
a couple of months, but I was gonna go to
Australia because I'm like, oh, Perth, there's only three hour
flight and then I looked up. I'm like, oh fuck,
you have to do this whole process to even get
a visa to go there. I didn't realize. So now
I have to go back because it is to make
gold mine since I'm a teenager. They go to surf Australia, Yes,
(05:13):
do it because like where else in the world is
it better to right?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
You know? So are you excited about that tour?
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Of course, it's our first headline tour in Australia. We
toured there a year ago and the response was unbelievable,
was crazy.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
So we thought I'll just not come back as a headliner.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
What do you think of the crowds there?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Like it's crazy, like the energy is on match, that's
i'd say. I'd say, yes, yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
I'm super stoked to go back there as a headliner.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
So how do you think how did they receive you
last time, and how you think it's going to be
this time?
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Even more crazy? Right because the people they come because
of us.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
What's the craziest thing you've seen in the crowd at
any of your shows.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
I saw a lot of crazy things, but once there
was a wheelchair like crowdsurfing and.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
I've seen that too. That's badass.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
It's pretty sick.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
And I also love like good old like pushpits, good
old circle pits, so me too.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
See, I want CrowdSurf because I when I was like seventeen,
I was at show. I got up on the stage,
I climbed up on the.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Marshall stack swan dive.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I was midair and the crowd moved and I hit
teeth first into the floor. So now I'm fucking trust anybody,
but I'll go into a pit because then I'm in
control sick and it's best therapy.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Man Like.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
People don't get what the pit's all about. It's not
about hurting and naming people. It's about getting that aggression
out so you don't hurt and name people in the
real world. Right, you know, I've had things happen in
me that like, we're devastating, and I just went to
a show, got in the pit, and laid all that
pain in the pit.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
Yes, that's what the male community is here for, exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
People don't get. It's funny. I'll tell you a funny story.
So one year I had to do two festivals in
one weekend. So obviously I can't do that, so I
sent somebody else from my station to do one of them.
She had never been to a rock show ever, much
less a metal show. She was a country girl. And
I said to her, I'm like, you're gonna have the
(07:29):
best fun ever. Yeah, right, like country shows, I said
to her. Country shows are no fun. It's a bunch
of rednecks drunk getting into fights. Yes, And you're so
scared of going to because she's scared of them. You're
so scared of going a smell show. We don't have fights.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Nope.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Everybody loves each other. We're like this big family.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
And I said, you'll probably meet a guy, You'll make
all these new friends. Blah blah blah blah. She comes
back of der the weekend She's like, oh my god,
you're so right. Like I have a new boyfriend now,
and I have this new band that I really love.
I don't know if you know who they are. They're
called Bring Me the Horizon See. And I was like, there,
(08:10):
I go see.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
I love that story, right, super nice.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
You know, we're just this big family and in some
ways a bunch of softies, and it's like people think
we're like some bands have said to me I'm like
friends with let's keep them thinking we're scary so they
don't ruin it.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Yeah right, I love that thought.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
So what started you on this journey? What's that one
moment where you're like you knew this is what you
had to do.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
I once met the guitarist of Elis Cooper okay, and
he played some riffs for me, like like schools out
and whatever, so and that was like and then we
were driving back in the car and my mom was driving.
I was like, Mom, I want to do this. I
want to play guitar. And that's why I stand here
basically nice.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
So yesterday I was in the campground hanging with some
dudes and they asked me if I was interviewing your
band and I was like yeah. And one of them
I forget his name now, but he said, well tell him.
I said, fuck you. But he's a fan, not in
a bad way. It's like somebody I think that knows you, Okay, okay,
personally all right, it's being funny, so I don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
So I relayed the message.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
All right, But let's hear how people can reach out
to you on socials, on the web, how they can
buy your merch because they can't listen to my show
