How long as it been since you guys have played, besides that last show in Rochester? That was your first show back right? |
| Ken |
The last show we played was in Europe, Bremen. Was the end of 1999? |
| Alex |
It was 1998, that sailors bar. |
| Mike |
No remember it was Hamburg because we had to park the van on the sidewalk next to the door because it was such a sketchy neighborhood you wanted to be able to see the van while you play. |
| BDC |
Are you guys psyched to do this again? What brought you guys together again? |
| Ken |
I'm psyched. I mean think the things that really lead us to being able to do more than just a one-off is we got an invitation about a year and a half ago from John McKaig, who does a lot of shows up in Syracuse. It was a benefit and it was a really good cause so we talked to everyone and everybody thought it was fun and we got Colin involved. It was really a lot of fun to play those songs again. So since then right when we got off that show we said we should do something else. |
| BDC |
Was it really easy to slip back into what you were doing before as a band? Is it different? |
| Mike |
I definitely think that it's different. Everyone is in a different part of their lives but it feels natural to be recording and play music again. What opened the door for me is that Ken and I are doing a side-project called When Tigers Fight and that was the first time that I had done something musically in a long time. Things are different but it's definitely going to be harder because we're not teenagers anymore. Responsibility sucks. We're just going to see what happens. |
| BDC |
Do you have any plans for touring? |
| Ken |
Really the only things on the table are some stuff in April and I think maybe 8 shows in the USA. We also do have a European tour with Most Precious Blood (which Colin plays with them as well) and Ringworm. |
| BDC |
Where are those US shows going to be? |
| Ken |
DC on the 15th and the 29th in Massachusetts at this metal fest and then the 30th is in Baltimore. |
| BDC |
How excited are you about the DC show on the 15th? |
| Mike |
It's going to be fucking great. You know what, playing DC again, I mean we played the show in Syracuse but we never got to say goodbye to DC. It's going to be cool to come back and play for old friends. |
| BDC |
Thanks dudes. See you on the 15th. |
