On this episode of the Adventures of Pipeman, Pipeman speaks to Buddy Neilson from the band Senses Fail at Welcome to Rockville. They discuss the unique experience of playing at the Daytona Speedway and the surprising angles of the turns. Buddy reveals that they were not allowed to drive on the speedway and shares his realization of how dangerous it would be to drive on the embankments. They also talk about the incredible lineup of legendary bands at the festival, including Tool, Deftones, and Incubus.

The conversation takes an interesting turn as they discuss their shared passion for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Buddy mentions that he has been practicing it for a long time, even longer than Maynard from Tool, and considers it as one of his main passions outside of music. They explore the concept of mastery and creativity in both music and martial arts, emphasizing the importance of continuous growth and pushing boundaries.

Pipeman and Buddy reflect on the importance of live performances and the energy that sets bands apart. They discuss how a captivating live show can change someone's perception of a band and how it adds a unique element to the music experience. Buddy shares his approach to live performances, often deviating from a script and embodying an exaggerated version of himself, akin to a superhero. They express the desire to engage the audience and make their time worthwhile, especially when performing alongside well-known bands like the Deftones.

The conversation concludes with a discussion about the journey of bands and the challenges they face along the way. Buddy shares his experience of playing to small audiences and highlights the perseverance and dedication required to reach larger stages. They appreciate the stories of bands starting from humble beginnings and emphasize that success is not just about the destination but also the journey itself.

You can follow the band on social media, particularly on Instagram and you can find Buddy personally all over TikTok so go check him out. Also be sure to keep an eye out for their upcoming tour and see if you can get yourself to a gig!
