-Okay, I've had my share of psychedelic mushrooms
but they were always picked off the side off cow
shit I thought. What's the trip like on ones plucked
from horse shit?
They don't exist but if they did and long ago the climate was right for
it and there's rumors of it but not no more. Its more of a definition
really.
-What's your favorite all time prank?
Never got to pull one but the Ramones did tons of em enough for
us all. I mean how many records did those dudes make?
That was their biggest prank of all.
-Bigger than Elvis?
Who's Elvis? Oh yeah...no Elvis didn't pretend to be
cool like those wankers. Look at where his wardrobe
went-plus who can gain that much weight as a pill popper?
Not I?
-What room do you do most of your recordings in?
Basic tracks=pot in the living room area, overdubs=drugs in the
bedroom unless we do 8 track at our friends house which usually involves whisky.
-So Psychedelic Horseshit is a "we" and not just a "me"?
I was wondering about that.
Yes we're a three piece. Met Jason when I felt the strange presence of the black saint and the sinner lady in his storage garage and Rich I met once three years ago and two years later on the day of our first practice he randomly calls and says he's in. An instant band.
-8 track? Like an 8 track player? The continuous loop?
Like jammin' out Deep Purple or 'Crystal Blue Persuasion'?
Never heard 'um...like a reel to reel-spinny thing is what we call 'em.
-What kind of whiskey?
Well. Does it matter?
-I think it depends on the pills you're mixing them with
really. What are your favorites?
The ones with acid on them.
-Do big breasted hippy chicks always have the best
weed compared to other chicks?
No but they get down to business pretty well. Their
weed is good too.
-What happens if you smoke too much weed?
Headache or you die. One or the other every time
-Which do you find more useful-caffeine or Cocaine?
Aren't they the same? Oh well, I'd go with caffeine
today-not a huge fan of anxiety and rather long
comedowns but coke is fine too if you don't mind those
things, actually more useful would probably be coke
cause its stronger and more immediate but caffeine is
more popular overall. I don't know they should have a
fight. I've always wanted to see a TV show called "vs."
where they just pit different things against each other
in a dual to the death. then we will know which is
better-then we will know.
-Name for favorite planet? What are the life
forms like there?
Wish I even knew a damn thing about them. The fact that they even exist is a total headtrip. I'm more interested in being shot into a black hole-truly an achievement/adventure.
-Word association time. In a couple of sentences
give an opinion on each one.
ART-got lost long ago in a sea of analysis and looking backwards for boundaries
FELINES-supposedly magical but I think they're just jealous
EFFECT PEDALS-only for pussies that got no originality to their playin'. Also too expensive to make yr instrument sound like ice cream
CANDY-can't stand it unless Phil Spector is handing it out, even then it can be awful (see Ramones)
CHEESE-seems like its everywhere these days; on the radio, at the club,
on the telly, yr favorite band's new album, casual conversation, hipster
circles, deli's and the moon.
-The mix-tape cassette? How do you feel about
'em? Are they on their death bed?
Maybe if I could find enough music that's good to put on the damn
things...no they once were great and they might have their return
yet. I can picture the day when they eat breakfast with us and do
our laundry, maybe even go on a date but truly the next mix tape
craze is gonna be homemade mix tapes done with palm recorders
and such almost like a letter but with talking and people playing
their own music, trading songs and so forth.I'd rather
listen to someone ramble about shit and sing in the
shower than hear a bunch old news hacks spliced
together...actually that might be cool if you split the
signal and had two songs going at once for a whole mix
tape. Song's aren't enough any more. Let's get personal.
-Who was the last person you made a mix-tape for?
God knows, I probably never gave it to whoever it was-always
kept the good ones for the car which sorta ruins it as a type of
correspondence thing which is what makes it cool.
So what tapes do you have in the car right now?
TAPE PLAYERS BUSTED, USUALLY DRIVE IN SILENCE.
-What are the ultimate driving tunes?
Out on the weekend-Neil Young-everything sounds better set to moving images
-Any ideas on how to change the world?
Through mixtapes, HAHA! Kill important people, burn yr money, stop listening to shit music like Fugazi who are a bunch of sissy faggots, do one nice thing a day and one awful horrible thing each day and make love not babies.
Now what can a poor boy do?
Lie steal cheat sleep in the gutter get a sugar momma become a hippie grow oats or telephone the mayor.
