I shit my pants last night.
I did.
Went out and had a great meal, just a great fucking meal.
I had to go to the bathroom, so bad in the car.
I'm going, Trout, who are you?
I got shit.
I had fucking shit in my pants.
I'm good twice a year for that.
When was the last time you shit your pants?
Me?
Yeah.
Been a while?
That's been a long time.
I was in Vegas a couple years ago.
Just an honest to God true story.
Staying at the Bellagio.
I went over to the Mirage for dinner and met some friends of mine over there.
Went to Kokomo's, a great little steakhouse.
The guy brings out some fresh crab legs.
He just came in, I got to give them to you guys.
I'm eating them.
Then we go play gamble a little bit.
I had a tea time early in the morning.
So I said, look, I got to get going.
I'm walking back to the hotel.
I get three quarters of the way out of the lobby.
All of a sudden I go, oh, fuck.
And I'm standing here like this.
I got my butt pinched so fucking, I'm fucked.
I can't move.
All of a sudden, you know, felt all right.
I went just like this.
Water.
I had some food poisoning from the crabs.
Take off my leather jacket.
Tie it around my waist.
I'm just standing there and it's just running down my leg.
I got jeans on black bucks, no socks.
And I just start fucking walking.
Every time I'm walking something's coming out.
It's water, straight fucking water.
Then just how sick I was.
Tell you how sick I was.
I said, Larry, you won't believe this.
I'm standing outside the fucking blage.
I can't move.
I got shit everywhere.
I shit all over myself.
And Larry's about a 48 waist.
So he brings me over a pair of pants and then some towels and some towels.
And some towels and some towels.
And some towels and some towels.
And some towels and some towels.
And so he then he comes over and he meets me where I'm telling where I'm standing.
He finds the closest bathroom.
When you go up the escalator and go into the fuck.
I can't get in the elevator.
So.
So he goes in.
He finds the closest bathroom in the lobby of the hotel.
And then I get in the escalator and he kind of sounds like he dropped something.
So no one gets behind me.
Tells me where it is.
I go in there.
He goes and gets the towel all wet for me.
Throws it over the fucking stall.
I take off all my fucking clothes.
Just wipe off.
Leave my.
Shoes.
Left my shoes.
My pants.
Everything right there.
The towels right there in the stall.
And I'm walking barefoot with my shirt and his pants that are 48 waist through the lobby like this.
Midnight.
Got up in the morning.
Took the perfect double tapered shit I've ever had in my life.
True story.
Who's the pitchers in this game?

Hey, what's going on, everybody?
It's the More Music Radio Pod.
It is Thursday, May 19th, and this is episode seven.
All right.
Yeah.
Golf claps.
Golf claps.
Tonight, our guests will be 400 Blows.
We got Scott and Scott from 400 Blows.
Hi, Mom.
That's Alexander and Martin.
Hello.
And we got Lee in studio.
Lee from the Piñata Hour that you can catch every Wednesday at 7 o'clock.
And we have Jeremy controlling the whole shit.
What's going on, Jeremy?
Yo, what's up?
What's going on?
Yeah, man.
So last week, we had Stab City, and those guys were pretty cool, man.
I've always liked their band, and it's always good to just see them.
It's good to see a good band playing, especially nowadays when it's just a sea of just, like, shit.
You know what I mean?
And it's good to know them.
And they were cool dudes, too, man.
Like, the drummer Bobby was telling us about his burger adventure and shit.
He was trying to eat a burger.
This is, like, a skinny dude.
Picture this skinny dude, whatever, and he's like, I'm going to have a burger every day, you know, and I'm going to document them.
And I think he's, like, on day 56 or 57 or something, and he kind of went through burgers and stuff.
And the bass player, Dan.
And, you know, aside from being a good bass player, he was actually like a paramedic.
And he helped like all these people and stuff.
And he did that for a few years, he was telling us.
And there was like, I guess like it got too much for him.
He got like post-traumatic stress and all this stuff.
And here's a clip of why he quit being a paramedic.
What made me stop was that I always was really good, at least I thought I was, with separating work from my real life.
Because I just would say it was at work.
But then one day, actually, I was dropping off some drums or picking up some drums from Bobby's house.
When he was living near MacArthur Park.
And it was Halloween.
And he had an alleyway behind his house.
And I dropped off the drums.
We were about to play like what was going to be one of our biggest shows ever down at Alex's Bar in Long Beach.
With Spinner Rad and some other bands.
And I was like, I'm going to do this.
And I was driving away.
And I saw like a clump in the road.
I was like, what's that?
Is that a homeless guy sleeping?
And I was like, I don't know.
It looks like a Halloween joke.
That popped in my head immediately.
So I backed up out of the alley.
And I was like, I have to go see what was up.
I got a really bad vibe.
So I drove around, found it.
And it was a dead guy.
It was a hit and run.
Like it was obvious.
He was dead, so I really couldn't do anything.
And people had been passing him for 45 minutes.
Et cetera, et cetera.
Man, people don't give a shit, man.
Yeah, they just don't care.
Dude, not in that neighborhood.
That was a fucked up neighborhood.
Yeah, so I called the police and all that.
And that was the reason I quit.
Because I felt like it really, like that sent me in a crazy spiral.
You know, like PTSD, all sorts of really heavy stuff.
Really?
Because I felt like the, you know, like there's a saying when you look into the abyss, the abyss looks back at you.
Right, right.
I kind of had that feeling.
Like it was starting to chase me.
Right.
Oh, man.
What a crazy fucking job, man.
Could you imagine fucking working and fucking just seeing the worst shit every fucking night?
Absolutely not.
So you, Scott, you were listening to that and you told me that you kind of had the same thing, right?
Oh, yeah, we did.
We did.
We were coming, we were done from a show in San Diego and we were driving down the street.
And there's this dude just all laying in the middle of the street, jacked up.
And I thought it was some drunk dude who was just coming home from the bar.
And he was like.
Oh, fuck it.
This looks like a good place to lay down.
So I walked up and I was like, hey, hey, dude, you're in the middle of the street.
Get up.
You're drunk.
And he didn't say anything.
He didn't say anything.
So they're like, everyone in the band's like, what's up with him?
And I'm like, I don't know.
Let me nudge him a little bit.
And I nudged him and he didn't move.
I was like, fuck.
Did he feel hard?
This dude is really drunk.
And then I kind of kicked him over and half his head just come apart.
Like a car ran over.
Oh, my God.
I was like.
That's insane.
You know, I was a little drunk.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, you don't want to see this.
Don't get out of the van.
And then some lady pulls up.
She's like, is he dead?
Is he dead?
And I'm like, yeah, lady, he's dead.
Can you take care of this?
Because we're a little drunk, man.
We don't want to be a part of this.
I just wanted to get the fuck out of there.
She's just crying.
And we just took off because we didn't hit the dude.
But we didn't want to be there when the cops came and tried to figure the whole thing out.
Yeah.
So you say you didn't hit the dude.
That's my story.
And I'm sticking with it.
Oh, man, dude.
Well, this is the kind of shit that that guy would see all the time, man.
And like for me, I couldn't do it.
And I told him, too.
I was like, you know, like, I don't see how you could do that and be able to just like take that on in your life and stuff.
And I kind of commended him for it.
And, you know, in fact, he even mentioned, too.
He's like, you know, I went from, you know, that and, you know, I quit that because it was too much.
He goes.
But then he jumped into like.
Disaster relief.
And he like helped out with Hurricane Katrina.
And he was talking about like helping out in Haiti after the earthquake.
He said it was complete devastation.
You know, it's just like the whole city is in a shambles.
He was saying that, like, there's two million new like homeless people.
And, you know, these people didn't really have a good quality of life to begin with, you know.
And so, you know, he had to help out over there.
And something weird came up, too.
Like a zombie.
Zombies came up.
Have you heard of like, you know, there's, you know, the zombies in the movie?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he said that he saw a zombie in Haiti.
I saw a zombie.
Really?
I swear.
But, you know, for them, zombies are different than our zombies.
So what kind of zombie did you see over there?
Zombies for them are like.
It wasn't a real zombie, was it?
That wouldn't make any sense.
No.
And it wasn't one of those fucking fast fucking Olympic sprinter zombies.
He started running at me and screaming.
Oh.
I hate those zombies.
I hate those zombies.
I hate those zombies.
I hate those zombies.
No.
I was at a homeless camp because I would go to a different homeless camp every day.
And across the river, there was a guy walking around just carrying stuff all day, hours.
And one of the guys in the camp I was at was like, look, it's a zombie.
You know, you've seen your first zombie.
It's like, whoa.
He's like, yeah, he's had a spell cast on him.
And he now is in servitude to somebody else.
That's like they're kind of zombie.
So there's like some special mineral.
I can't remember, but it smells really bad.
And they would, you know, use it to cast a spell on people and kind of make them their slaves.
Wow.
So you do believe it's a zombie or is it just like some kind of drug induced like state that they do?
It's a who knows, right?
It's a drug induced state, but drug those drugs don't last for, you know, weeks and weeks and weeks.
Well, if it looks like a zombie and it walks like a zombie in the head.
Fuck it.
Yeah, man.
Those guys are cool.
Do you know those guys?
You play shows with them?
Who are they?
Stab City.
We don't know.
I know we know who they are, but we don't know them.
You guys should fucking hook up a show with them, man.
Those guys are really fucking cool.
Yeah, that would be an insane show.
I will go for that one.
We'll have our girls talk to their girls.
Hash it out.
Are you talking about the guys with chick pants?
Yeah, man.
So it was fun having those guys in.
And I want to thank you.
I want to thank you.
I want to thank you.
I want to make sure that I say to go see those guys and follow the drummer Bobby Vega's burger adventure.
He's doing that right now.
But tonight we have 400 Blows in studio.
We have Lee from Bastidas.
We have Jeremy, the founder of Skid Row Studios.
And we're going to play a couple songs.
He's sitting in the corner in his jacuzzi right now.
Yeah, man.
He's fucking with the cigar shit.
He loves cigars, man.
Cuban shit.
He has a real shit too, man.
Got a bottle.
A night train in one hand.
A big gold chain.
We're going to bust out that bottle.
One tooth with a diamond in it.
We're going to play a couple songs.

It's either that or spending too long in bed.
Have you ever done that?
To where you're...
You get back pain from being in bed too long?
Yeah, and the bed sores, man.
If they get infected, they're hard to, you know, whatever.
Me being the tender age of 22 and buff.
I don't experience these things.
I have to have my girlfriend turn me, you know, every like 24 hours or something.
Or is she turning you into dudes?
She's like, I want to see you with another guy.
Turned you.
And I'm like, you know what?
I got the hottest guy kind of into the studio.
He's a singer of this really cool band, and I'm going to try to bring him home tonight.
Is this a set up for...
I don't think it's going to happen.
Is that a set up for a song you're about to play?
Yeah, man.
Hey, you know what?
We're going to...
In fact, like, we're going to jump to a couple of songs, and we got another call.
We're getting calls right at the break.
But anyway, we're going to let you through and talk to 400 Blows.
Caller, you're on the air.
Yeah, I got a question for you guys.
All right, what's up?
Which guys?
When you guys played at Spaceline with Unsane.
Yes.
Remember that?
Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
For some reason.
Did anyone hear that?
Did anyone hear that?
Did anyone hear that?
Did any of you guys lose, like, a fat bag of meth?
No.
I heard about that, though.
No, it wasn't us.
But somebody did, and then somebody found it and went into the bathroom.
Oh, really?
Oh, my God, because I found it.
Oh, really?
I'm the one that found it.
All right.
How are you?
Are you okay?
I'm all right.
It was...
I didn't do it, but I was just like, whoa.
Can you feel your dick again?
That's really crazy, because somebody else found a bag as well and went into the bathroom thinking it was coke, and then, like, it was, like, 10 people that were just, like, really sad.
Really sad.
Yeah.
Yeah, because that will really...
You can tell right away.
I could tell.
Yeah, but it got to, like, 10 people.
Like, it was...
Like, they were just like, ow!
And...
I thought it was coke.
I was like...
I looked to the floor and...
Don't do drugs, man.
Hey, man, it wasn't mine, dude.
I don't do crystal meth around people.
Yeah, I know.
Just alone.
It would just make me want to, like, lock myself up into a dark corner for 16 hours of porn.
And you did, right?
I just want to tell you, though, I think it's really amazing.
It's amazing, though, that you just pick up drugs off the ground and just do them and not know what they...
I didn't do that.
That's actually the best way to do drugs.
You're like, I don't know what this is.
Hey, I found this powder.
I'm going to put it up my nose and see if it's meth or if it's coke.
Hey, look, this is green and there's fire coming out of it.
Dude, look it.
He's tangled again.
Maybe I can put it in my butt.
This fucking guy's tangled again.
How the fuck does that work?
I keep getting tangled.
It is.
Scott keeps tangling.
That's so funny because it's two different bags of meth.
It's because I'm riding around in the studio.
Well, hey, it's me, Bobby.
From the Burger Adventure.
Hey, what's up, dude?
Hey, Bobby.
What day is it, man?
Did you break it or are you still going strong?
Thanks for doing my meth, bro.
You're at 59?
I think so, yeah.
Congratulations, man.
That's awesome.
I'm doing a bunch of internet shit right now.
So what was your last burger, man?
Where'd you have it?
The last one was the Sticks.
It's right there on Hyperion.
And it's delicious.
You got a picture of it?
Oh, dude.
Do you want a good burger?
Do you want a burger recommendation?
There you go.
Yes, I do.
From 400 Blows?
Yeah.
Hi, my name's Scott.
Yes, please.
Nice to meet you, by the way.
Yeah, it's really great.
The Chateau Lanes Bowling Alley.
It's in Korea.
Oh, yeah.
Dude, the fucking cheeseburgers there are retarded good.
They're really, really good.
Oh, my God.
That's a great recommendation because I live, like, right near there.
Oh, yeah.
That place is awesome.
It's, like, one of my favorite burgers in LA.
I never thought to order food there because, you know.
It's totally sketchy looking.
It's, like, $18.
I've never seen bad guys working there.
Yeah, it looks kind of scary.
Just like that bartender who stands in the box.
I go on Mondays when they have bowling for, like, $20 for, like, four hours.
Hey, I recommend the McDonald's cheeseburger.
Make sure you get nine of them, though.
I get the McDouble at Big Mac Sauce.
That's what I had for lunch.
Oh, yeah.
Burgers in between the burgers.
That was the most Tim McDonald's order I've ever heard.
That's the one that has a burger inside of the burger, right?
Oh, yeah.
You're up on your shit, man.
You know how to do it.
That's a 400-blow burger right there.
Put Oscar's meat inside of duck meat and then inside of fucking buffalo.
I got to try the Chateau.
Wrap it up with the Neapolitan burger.
Hey, meat is murder, but of animals, so who cares?
By the way, that was just Scott.
Scott Martin from Portland.
Yeah.
Thank you.
You guys are awesome.
We love you guys so much.
Thank you, man.
Love you, too.
Love you, too, very much.
Hey, thanks, Bobby.
Hey, let's set up a fucking Chateau Lanes fucking bullet on Stab City, 400 blows.
You don't even realize, like, twice.
I love that place.
There's been, like, twice where Stab City almost got to play with 400 blows, and we were just like, it's too good to be true, and of course, it always gets like that.
Oh, yeah.
Wow.
These guys are hard to get a show with.
That's not true.
I did not know about it at all.
They got to really like you.
Even less on the site.
That's not true.
Yeah, we didn't pass the 400 blows.
It's like files thrown on their desk, and they're just like, they look at it, and they're like, all right, nope.
Dude, I get files thrown in my jacuzzi.
They're like, no, no.
Hey, in that song- They're like, where the fuck did you dig up these guys?
And he throws it.
In that song that they played the Stab City song earlier, were you saying over and over and I had another pizza or some shit like that?
Yeah, because the song is about like one of- Go ahead.
What?
No, no, you go ahead.
Go ahead.
Say that.
Yeah, it's about like this guy that keeps eating and eating until he becomes like as big as the universe.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, that pizza- Sounds like my life.
Fucking writing songs about us, man.
Yeah, writing songs about our band.
That's why I like you guys.
You can identify with your fucking songs.
No, that really stoked me out.
I was listening to it.
I was like, that's fucking awesome.
So, kudos to you.
Yeah, it's funny because when we were first writing that song, those were just like the test lyrics.
And I was like, no, you have to keep that.
Yeah, those are great.
Those are fantastic.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So that's how the song came.
And I love that line.
That's like one of my favorite lyrics that we've ever written.
This burger could be your life.
Yes.
That's your film.
Hey, Bobby, it was fun having you guys in last week, man.
I really appreciate you guys coming in.
Yeah, dude, we had a lot of fun.
Oh, dude, I think I fucked up this line.
Thanks, Bobby.
Thanks, Bobby.
All right, man.
We'll see you guys.
All right, Bobby.
Yeah, we'll do a show sometime.
Hey, Bobby, when is Stab City playing again?
Yeah, let's do a show sometime, man.
Oh, that's a good- Yeah, thanks for the plug.
Stab City's playing at the Silver Lake Jubilee this Saturday, which is my birthday and the apocalypse.
Oh, no.
Happy birthday.
Hey, stay away from blow-up dolls.
And we're playing at 8.30 on the Eagle Stage.
Oh, cool.
I'm going to try to make it out to that.
Also, earlier in the day, we're playing at the Pasadena Japanese Fundraiser at the Memorial Park in Pasadena with the Binges and Holy Grail.
Nice.
So we're doing two festivals back-to-back.
Oh, the Binges.
Nice.
We're racing across town.
Right on, man.
So yeah, check it out.
All right, cool, man.
Everybody check out Stab City on the day of the apocalypse, man.
Take care, Bobby.
That's right.
Wraps your time.
Later, Bob.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, man.
Yeah, man.
So, all right.
Well, let's take a break and play a couple songs, and we'll be right back on the More Music Radio Pod with 400 Blows.
Don't take this offensively.
The More Music Radio Pod.

More room on the stage, more room for us to run around More room on the stage, more room for us to run around and do our, do our calisthenics and the things we do.
Well, you do a good job filling in for him, man.
It's really good.
It sounds great.
Thank you.
I mean, I can't wait to hear it when you guys get him in, when he actually can make it.
Yeah, he doesn't even really know the songs.
Hey, if you're listening, do you hear them calling?
Yeah.
The fans?
Yeah, if you can hear us, man, just let us know you're okay.
It's been a while since you've called.
I'm sorry I lost your bag of meth at that show.
But that guy found it.
Sounds like it went to a good cause.
Hey, look, it went to a good home.
Bobby, yeah.
You don't have to punish us.
We didn't do it.
Well, he made it himself, so he's attached to it.
But you guys are a three-piece, and it's a drummer and a guitar player and Scott Alexander sings, man.
Yes, yeah.
And you guys got like a look.
You guys are always in black.
What is your uniform?
Rock, a simple color, rock and roll.
I don't know.
Fuck.
I've been wearing.
I'm wearing powder blue shirts these days with my black.
Something uniform to look nice.
Something lace underneath that nobody knows about.
Oh, yeah.
Who told you?
Just a wild guess.
Something lace.
Something nothing underneath.
You got my number.
Gotta get loose, baby.
So what is the relation to the classic foreign film?
Here we go.
I worked at a video store.
When I came with the title, I worked at a video store, and it was back in the early 90s, and all the titles were separated by directors.
It was one of those first artsy video stores that made real film buffs feel good when they walked in.
And the Francois Truffaut section was there, and Foreigner Blows, and it's a 1959 French film that was kind of cutting edge.
I think to your average kid these days, it would be a little boring.
It's not like ADD like all the movies today.
It's not in 3D.
Fuck it.
It's a brilliant film.
When you go to film school, you'll probably have to see.
And it's one of the first films of French New Wave.
But really, the title of the film is a coming-of-age term.
It's used to describe a young boy or a woman when they're growing up, and they're going through those years of getting in trouble and pushing people's buttons and nagging them and ticking them off.
And they say, oh, he or she is just going through their 400 blows.
And I thought that was just kind of apropos for a band.
It's kind of what you're doing.
It's a terrible twos, but hold on.
That's cool, man.
I never knew that.
Yeah.
I did.
I thought that it might have something to do with Clockwork Orange or something.
That was our last record, Angels, Trumpets, and Devils Trombones.
It was kind of a line.
And if you guys saw Clockwork Orange, there's a scene where he's all out and all dudded up and just feeling like meeting ladies and shit.
And he's in a record store, and he walks up to these two girls that are sucking on lollipops.
And he said something like, you know, what you call to play in your pitiful, you know, I don't know, portable picnic play.
Yeah.
And they're like, I don't know.
And he's like, why don't you, my dears, why don't you come to my house and hear Angels, Trumpets, and Devils Trombones?
Okay.
I thought that it was just a perfect example of a musical listening experience.
And I don't know if the record came off that way to most who heard it, but that was my intention of the title was, I don't know, I'm going to call it Angels, Trumpets.
Just, you know, a nice description of a musical listening experience.
You know?
So that's where the title of that record came from.
That's where the clock records reference is.
And that was your last record, right?
Yeah.
That was five years ago.
But we have a new one out.
Yeah.
Hey, man, we know how it feels, man.
We haven't released anything in about that many years, too.
So it's hard to do, man.
So what were you doing in those five years?
Did you guys kind of stop for a little while or?
No.
You know, just making.
There was member changes and then there was.
Just trying to figure out what to do with our earnings, you know, the millions.
Yeah.
There's that too.
Yeah.
Lawyer fees.
All that.
All that shit.
You know, just deciding which island to vacation on.
You know, these are things that take up my entire days.
The royal bathers.
Yeah.
The royal penis is clean.
Whose party I should attend and whose I shouldn't because, you know.
I shan't attend that party.
One may or may not have nudity, you know.
Yeah, man.
Yeah.
Cool, dude.
Cool, dude.
So.
Five years later, you guys have your new record.
Mm-hmm.
And what is there like a concept to that record or anything?
Tell us about the title.
Sickness and Health.
I don't know.
It's one thing that means the complete opposite of the other thing.
But yet they look so good in the same line together.
I agree.
I guess the record's kind of about that.
It's about dealing with, you know, your demons and dealing with overcoming them.
I don't know.
For lack of a.
Or partying.
To give a very therapeutic description.
You know.
You guys are getting remarried or something.
Yeah, there you are.
Something of that nature.
Reacquainted with.
I never thought of it that way.
Reacquainted with putting a record out, you know.
Yeah.
So are these songs like kind of recent, like recently written or.
All within the last year.
Oh, okay.
It was.
Yeah.
It took the new formation of the people in the band to actually.
Now it's.
Now we.
Yeah.
It's the first.
Once we finally worked together fluidly, then we started writing and then boom, it came out.
It's the first record with Scott and Kevin, the members that have been in the band, the new, the guys that came in after the old guys.
Right.
A couple of years ago.
It's the first record that we that we've put out together.
And it's a.
I'm excited about it.
It's I love all the stuff we've done, but this is, you know, by far sort of my favorite because it's just kind of.
I don't know.
There's there's.
It's.
I don't really care for it.
It's good.
I mean, I think.
I don't want to get all.
It sounds like really powerful and I like that kind of shit.
You know what I mean?
It's like a it's kind of like a fucking kick in the fucking stomach.
You know, it sounds good, man.
I like it.
I approve of it.
Being kicked in the stomach.
Yeah.
If I didn't approve, then I'd be like, oh, all right, good.
At least you're in the moment when that happens.
It's always good to have your approval.
Thanks, man.
Yeah, no problem, man.
Thanks.
Imagine if you didn't.
I'd fucking suck.
Who you got playing drums right now?
Kevin Fitzgerald.
Um, he was in a band.
He's been in bands.
He's been in a lot of really great bands.
He's a great guy and a fantastic, amazing drummer.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He plays in the Circle of Jerks.
He was in Geraldine Fibbers in the 90s.
Further.
He's just one of those guys.
Yeah.
Tons of bands.
And he's just one of those guys that just, uh.
Fantastic.
You give him a part and he just starts, his mind just starts going crazy trying to come up with something.
Yeah.
He's probably one of the better songwriters I've ever met in my life.
He's great.
Yeah.
He's a really good drummer.
And he kind of still stuck to the, uh, the original drummers kind of, uh, cause I think that the drums were.
I don't think that's the original drummer.
It's the, it's the, the style of the band is really what it is.
Right.
And when you join, when you're in this band, it's, it's kind of, it's a very kind of specific style of music.
Uh huh.
Yeah.
I mean, it's endless, the possibilities, but you got to kind of, you can't, you're not writing songs like you're writing for, you know, if you were in Motorhead, you know, it's not that kind of band.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
I'm just kidding.
You're not going to write something to like a four, four beat.
You know?
Right.
Right.
Right.
There's a lot of changes and drops and stuff.
Yeah.
A lot of rhythmic things that are like, oh, this is a little different and you got to kind of go with that, you know?
And so, you know.
It's very syncopated.
Everyone's.
It's kind of mechanical.
I don't know what that means.
Everyone's style that would come into this band.
It's like, it's got to, it's got to, it's got to, it's got to realize those issues.
Thank you.
So who writes the songs?
Like Scott.
Who does the songwriting?
We all do.
Yeah?
Yeah.
We all do.
So you bust out the guitar and be like, hey, I got this idea.
It's very, it's very organic.
It happens in a million different ways.
I mean, it's, I think that's how it is for everybody.
A lot of times it just comes from mistakes.
I think, oh, what was that?
Oh, you know, you're trying to write a part.
Yeah.
And then someone kind of flucks it up a little bit.
You're like, oh, oh, yeah.
Oh, rewind.
Back up.
What was that?
Oh, I like that.
Let's keep that, you know?
We do all of our, we do all of our band practices over Skype.
Yeah.
Have you seen that commercial?
Via Skype?
That was our idea.
I saw that commercial.
Yeah.
So that's how we do it.
And we usually write.
In the suburbs.
Yeah.
And we can, we can text each other tablature.
It's funny because Scott's always in his bedroom, you know?
Yeah.
And then he's always got dragon pants on.
Yeah.
Well, I also.
Dude, this is Skype, not a show, buddy.
And the drummer's playing in the washroom.
What's that?
And the drummer's playing in the washroom and stuff.
And you see like tiles in the background.
Yeah.
Great sound in the washroom.
It's just all the tiles and he's got, it's a cement floor.
Dude, all talk, no rock on this, on this show.
What's.
You guys watch television?
Define television.
Define what?
Does it have people fucking all the time?
A commercial.
They were saying earlier how they were kind of disappointed that, uh, that cow guy is not an American Idol.
Now it's Steven Tyler.
And it's like, they think Steven Tyler.
Oh, I haven't paid attention to that.
Oh man.
I love Steven Tyler.
She is the best thing that ever happened to American Idol.
Yeah.
She's very pretty.
He has those dick sucking lips.
My favorite thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I like her tan the most.
And Scott, Scott Martin, you play in other bands too, right?
You were telling me earlier.
Yeah.
You play in a big business and stuff.
A band called Crom.
Yeah.
And, um, I don't know, we have websites.
I don't know.
Yeah, cool.
Well, we'll get to the plugs in a bit.
Yeah, no, it's, uh, you know, this is a 400 blows.
Plug, lug, lug.
Video show.
Yeah, man.
It's all about 400 blows, man.
So, um, you guys got, you know, you got, you got, you got, you got, you got, you got, you You guys got this new album out.
Yeah, that's what the rest of the world thinks.
Are you guys planning on going on the road?
When are you guys going on the road?
Probably in August.
As soon as the record is released, I think we're going to just fucking go out for as long as possible.
As soon as they introduce a van that just runs on happiness.
Oh, I thought that you already...
You don't have that yet?
Oh, fuck it.
I don't know.
Then I don't own it.
I mean, you guys want to go in on that.
I need somebody to produce it.
There's going to be some days that van is not going to run.
If we were on tour, though, and a van ran on happiness, wouldn't we be stuck a lot?
Yeah, there'd be long nights in the middle of Lubbock, Texas, just fucking crying.
Why won't it start?
What are you going to think?
It just reinforces the whole thinking positive thing.
You make your van run.
Positive mental attitude, man.
Yeah, man, got that PMA.
Kevin reinforced the PMA on this last tour, and it was life-changing.
It was great.
Yeah, man, you can visualize it.
Visualize it.
I never thought that a 400 Blows tour could go so smoothly.
It's really good.
I think we have the right crew going on.
Positive mental attitude.
No matter how fucked you are, somebody else is more fucked than you.
Exactly.
It could always be worse.
It could always be worse, man.
You could be in fucking Haiti, a zombie and shit.
We heard about that.
Dude, yeah, that's so brutal, that shit.
Have you seen that thing?
I don't know.
Never mind.
You could be a guy with that.
I don't know what I'd do.
If I saw a zombie, I'd just probably look around for, you know, filming equipment or something.
No way.
A real zombie movie?
Yeah, this can't be.
No.
I'm going to make the first real zombie movie.
Where's Woody Harrelson?
Well, don't get too close.
That's all I can tell you.
Yeah.
I don't know.
And they're slow, you know what I mean?
So you got a chance.
Well, that was the cool thing about 28 Days Later is the zombies finally ran.
You're just like, holy shit.
Those weren't, but see.
They were infected, okay?
No.
Yeah.
Okay.
Is there some kind of...
I didn't know there was some kind of zombie etiquette.
I'm sorry.
I did not mean to be insensitive.
Yeah, man.
I don't like...
The zombie community will be upset.
The infected is fine.
They walk down Hollywood all the time and all kinds of other dumb shit.
Infected people, diseased people are fine running around.
That was, you know, Dan O'Bannon's kind of takeoff on the zombie genre where it was, this is the real thing.
But zombies, they don't need brains.
You guys want to go see some zombies?
Go to one of those bars right down the street.
Yeah.
No, we are.
We are actually.
We're in the Resident Evil district of downtown Los Angeles.
We were here last Thursday.
It was, yeah, I could relate to that.
It was like a different kind of zombie.
Christian Otterger's zombie army.
Fashion zombies were here last week at the art walk, man.
It was so hard to get in here, man.
They're just like, oh.
What happened to Dan?
You should have had a machine gun on you.
The only thing about that is all those people are going to go on a zombie walk next Thursday.
Yeah.
Fuck yeah.
Let's all take the subway together.
Hey, look at all the people asleep.
Ooh, what?
Make sure you have the right transfer.
We'll get tickets.
Well, cool, man.
Back to zombies.
They're ghouls, okay?
It's not zombies.
That is shit.
Sorry, man.
Fuck.
This guy's a purist, man.
Yeah, you know, and I don't want to offend any group.
Yeah, I'm getting a little bit uncomfortable right now, to be honest.
It's like calling a midget a dwarf.
Yeah, man.
It's like a slur.
Again, I'm removing myself from the conversation.
It's just I don't want to offend anyone.
It's like calling a chick a broad.
You know what I mean?
No, no, that I could be hungry.
Or a tomato.
Is it?
That's rude.
Tomato.
I got to tell my girlfriend that.
I just found something out, honey.
If you guys want to call up and talk to 400 Blows, call 1-800-893-9562.
We're going to play a couple more songs, and we're going to be back with 400 Blows on the More Music Radio.

You know, I've never been into the whiskey.
Never paid a play.
I'm really proud to say that I've never been.
The whiskey actually wants to email me or something.
They want us to do a show there.
And I called them up and said, yeah, sure.
We'll do a show.
They're like, yeah, you got to give us like $600 for tickets and sell them to your friends.
I was like, fuck that, dude.
What are you talking about?
And he goes, oh, you must be one of those like Silver Lake bands.
I was like, actually, we're in the Meckle Park.
I was like, well, I don't pay to play.
And I was like, this is bullshit.
You guys make bands fucking pay to play?
You don't have to be from a certain city to like, you know.
And he was like, he started getting all like, fuck you, man.
Like, I'll come down there and beat your ass.
I'm like, all right, dude, I'm in Echo Park.
These are the bars I hang out at.
I go and drop a nuclear bomb on your ass.
Was that M Productions?
Yeah, it was them.
It was years ago.
What about your fucking issues?
You're fucking idiots.
Well, you know, they do.
Yeah, just a bunch of piles of mud with eyeballs.
The reason why they're still doing business like that is because there are like young bands that want to play.
There's young bands.
You know what comes to mind is Sean Healy.
You guys remember that?
That's what I was just saying.
Yeah, that fucking idiot.
That guy.
Oh, you know.
God, what a fucking moron, dude.
These fucking guys take everything off the top and pay nobody.
It's just.
I remember when I played at the Clown Show.
You guys are lucky to be playing the Viper Room on Wednesday at 45 AM.
Hey, you guys ever play at Coconut Tea?
Fuck no.
No.
That was way back in the day.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
I played there a few times.
I had a good time there.
I remember that night coming down.
I've been there, but I don't remember it.
I always tried to set up shows.
Yeah.
You know what they do too is if you don't come up with all the money, they'll fucking hold on to your equipment until you come up with the rest of the money.
They can hold on to my nuts.
That's badass.
Yeah, exactly.
The shitty thing is if there are any kids listening starting a band, they'll play a fucking Sunset.
Never fucking pay to play.
Dude, fuck no.
Worst idea.
Yeah.
What's that?
What?
What?
There is a rapture, and the rapture is here.
Follow the blowup dolls.
Hey, you guys, I'm leaving my body right now, but it was cool meeting you.
Just want you guys to know that I've, you know, I know you all are sinners, but Jesus is coming for me, I have never sinned, so I'll see you later, or maybe not.
Jesus is coming for you.
Gross.
I always love it when a man in a dress is running right at me.
It's like, dad.
Who's scared of him?
Who said it was the end of the world anyway?
I don't know.
Some dude.
Some fucking idiot.
All of a sudden, people are talking about that, and I'm like, don't we have another year or something?
I thought it was 2012.
Oh, yeah.
That's 2012.
Yeah.
Who pays attention to the Mayan prophecies, man?
It's all about some weird fucking...
I don't know.
Who is this one guy who's like, oh, by the way, Saturday.
The calculation...
I'm an asshole.
It came up based on Noah's Ark.
So his theory, his calculations are based on another thing that's fake.
You mean the boat that carried all the animals in the world?
Yeah, every single animal in the world.
What?
How come...
And now why didn't he...
Hey, make sure you take some pigeons, because people need to get shit on in the future.
Hey, you know what?
I've been through like four ends of the world, and if you're going to go through another one, you got to do this.
You got to...
What the fuck is that noise?
You got to go to a grocery store right after it's supposed to happen and just see the place ransacked and like all the water's taken, all the canned soup, but there's plenty of fucking beer.
For some reason, nobody wants beer, you know, in the afterlife.
That's the first thing I would do.
That would be the first thing I would grab, you know.
It's food and it's drink all in a bottle.
Get the food.
Get the beer.
Get the fleshlight.
You know, get a couple of magazines, you know.
It's a fucking...
It's a weed party.
So let me understand what's...
So you're saying the whole Noah's Ark thing didn't happen?
Wait a minute, dude.
We don't want to ruin your vibe.
No, it could have happened.
I mean, thinking about it, you know, it seems pretty realistic.
I watched the cartoon.
It is.
And it looked pretty good to me.
I don't know.
So what did Noah's Ark say that it was going to be the end of the world?
Like, was it etched in?
The etch into the wood?
Something with the...
I don't know.
The Vindabar.
Who the fuck knows what these fucking things, right?
Well, apparently that one guy...
I think maybe some monkey scribbled it in the side of the boat in the hole.
The whole part, you know?
It's like, yeah.
I know I'm losing after that shit.
That dude's kind of...
I think what you're thinking about is he's definitely making money somehow.
And we're talking about...
Oh, absolutely.
You know?
And there was like just a lot of like judgment day parties this weekend and stuff like that.
All I can say is...
Everybody I know is like celebrating.
All I can say is if the rapture is coming for you, try it.
Try not to jump out of your sunroof in the middle of the freeway.
I heard that one.
That's definitely...
That's a good story.
You will definitely have a rapture of sorts if you do that.
What do you think?
That chick went to heaven?
She did that?
I hope so.
Probably not considering there's no heaven, you know?
So what happened to her?
She jumped out of the sunroof and got chopped in half or something?
I don't know.
I don't even know if that's a true story.
I just heard it the other day.
It sounded really funny.
He doesn't...
No fact checking.
It might be an urban myth.
I'm not much of a fact checker, you know?
Of that.
Of that type.
No.
But yeah, man.
The End of the World.
You guys ever see that movie, Night of the Comet?
I want it to be like something cool.
Like a comet comes and turns everybody to dust.
Leaves a few people to run around and shit.
Fucking run around in the mall and fucking try on all sorts of new pumps and stuff.
Steal TVs.
Like, what do you need that TV for?
There's going to be nothing on.
You can get some DVDs or something.
Netflix isn't going to work.
I would just jog through the mall at five in the morning if that happened.
There's going to be no internet connection, man.
Yeah.
I know.
That's going to suck, right?
But everybody is going to be dead.
Or who's going to be dead?
I don't even know.
Which brings you to...
You know, I'm no expert.
It brings us to a point, too.
We're not going to have to pay bills anymore.
Everybody's so dependent on technology right now.
You know, like everybody's dependent.
Like, if you really wanted to throw us into chaos, all you got to do is really knock out the power.
Al-Qaeda, if you're listening, knock out the power grids.
What are you guys doing flying into buildings?
Knock out the power grid.
You're going to fuck everybody up.
Everything's digital.
Everybody's money is digital.
Yeah.
And you really...
This camera's in my food.
I remember a long time ago when the beeper came out and I got one.
I was like, yeah, man, the beeper, dude.
This is fucking cool.
Hey, will my beeper work?
I'm like, hey, man, anybody know where there's a payphone, man?
Shit.
That's rad.
I got a page.
And now it's like fucking cell phones.
Everybody's connected, you know, so...
I saw a payphone the other day.
I wanted to steal it.
I thought it was going to be...
I thought it was like an antique.
Speaking of...
Probably sell this.
Beepers and payphones.
Yeah.
I'm at that refrigerator magnet to do this.
I was looking up on the internet the way to actually do it.
What was that called again?
Where you do the grid thing?
Where you live off the grid?
Is this some Tron kind of shit?
No, no, no.
It's like when you use the grid and you don't want to use it anymore.
You mean living off the grid, right?
No, no, no.
The one where you blow shit up?
I don't know what you're talking about.
You're talking about like battleships?
Living on the edge of the aerospace zone?
Yes.
You suck my battleship.
Oh.
The one non-stone guy here.
Yeah, I know.
Fucking us all up.
Starts making sense and fucking throws us all for a fucking loop.
That wasn't cool, man.
Sorry.
I was trying to make a point.
I know I read this on the internet where you could actually, you know, create your own solar flare.
I know the sun's supposed to be doing that right now.
Oh, yes.
With a bag of...
I know the whole...
The trick with your...
You light a bag of dog dew on fire.
Not aware...
Not familiar.
Well, if you're not familiar, this is what you do.
My mom really didn't like that.
This is what you do.
You get a...
You're talking about feces, sir?
No, I'm talking about stool.
What I'm talking about is...
Feces, sir?
Yeah.
And you put that in a brown paper bag.
Oh, good Lord.
Handling it?
Well, you could wear gloves or a trash bag over your hand.
I'd care for that.
Whatever you like.
And create a solar flare.
I see these people...
You're not up to that point.
This is how you do it.
All right, come on.
Hang in there with it.
It's a horror movie.
So what you do is you put that in the bag.
That sounds terrible.
And you get matches, not a lighter, because you just want to drop the match on top of it while it's flaming.
What?
All right, all right.
Come on.
Move it along, man.
Come on.
You do that.
And then you knock on the door and you say, dominoes, and you run.
Yes.
And that creates a solar flare.
Same here.
I don't know what...
Sometimes when I hear the show back, then I understand what you're talking about.
But right now, I don't know what you're talking about.
No, I get it, man.
Yeah, totally.
I get it, man.
You just fucking start a solar flare.
Yeah.
You just stone out, man.
Yeah.
You know, you can get solar flares if you get really a bad case of athlete's foot.
Athlete's foot, man.
It's like, you know, women...
What you do is you got to pee in the shower to get rid of that shit.
No, women are controlled by the moon.
Men are controlled by the moon.
Men are controlled by the moon.
Men are controlled by the moon.
Men are controlled by the moon.
Men are controlled by the sun.
No, I think that's super man.
And the most manly...
I peed on myself in the shower and cured myself of AIDS.
No, that's Windex.
Again?
That's a true story.
Use Windex for that.
That shit always works for you, man.
Windex, man.
Pee on yourself.
He's a survivor.
That's nice.
Destiny's Child, man.
Pee on myself.
If a girl just broke up with you and you're really hurt, you know, and you want to pee on yourself, clean that up a little bit, just pee on yourself and you're...
When you do that, you feel free.
You're out dating that night.
You feel free.
Have someone come and lay a hot towel on you.
Hot Carl on your chest.
Carl from that show?
Listen, we didn't agree to do a porn show.
Let's agree to it now.
That's the after show.
I'm in.
So what do you guys think about dicks going into vaginas?
Yeah, you guys got...
Time goes to marry and what's going on?
We don't have sex.
Sex is boring.
We only have time for the band.
That's for you hippies.
We only have time for the band.
That's all we do.
We don't have time for personal lives.
Well, how's that?
Does it have to be personal?
Will you guys get a lot of chicks at the show or what?
No.
No?
Oh, dude.
It's a lonely road, man.
Is your mom a chick?
Yeah, my mom's pretty cool, man.
Actually, my mom...
I don't want to look at my mommy that way.
That's gross.
To actually, you know, to be completely honest, my mom's pretty cool.
Hey, your mom's cool, too?
My mom's cool, too.
Thanks.
Does anybody in this room has a cool mom that isn't cool?
I don't think my mom was not cool.
Uh-oh.
You think your family...
I think my dad was cool.
I think my dad was cool.
I think my mom was cool.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I don't know what you guys are talking about.
I don't know what you guys are talking about.
Dude, my mom bought me a cheese grater for Christmas.
Yeah.
That's pretty cool.
And she said, here, fix yourself.
She said, this is for your rocks.
Oh.
Oh.
This was Christmas?
Or birthday?
That was this...
No, that was my second birthday.
I said, this is for your rocks.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.

Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
I think we did, right?
I mean, there's not really much to tell.
We have a record coming out, and we're not doing any shows, so...
It's tight and shiny.
Nothing really to talk about.
What do you guys like to play?
Not really much anywhere anymore.
No.
No.
What do we like to play?
Gee, you guys make it sound like so much fun.
I don't know.
It's just so tiring.
It's like, oh, God.
It's about as much fun as a toddler's funeral.
I don't know.
I don't know.
It's just so tiring.
Yeah, what a bummer, man.
I'll stay playing it bad for you.
Do you guys practice once a month, or...?
It's like six times a year.
So, yeah.
No.
Once every two months.
That's good.
That's a great schedule.
It depends on if there's a show coming out.
You guys are established.
It's like six times a year, so eight times.
No, we practice all the time.
It's great.
It's fantastic.
Is that a show when you practice?
It kind of is.
Kind of.
Some shows you kind of practice.
So, we actually practice seven times a year.
It shows the socks that you condom as a practice show.
No, we practice all the time.
Yeah.
We have a great time.
Yeah.
So, what do you think about what's going on in L.
A.?
What are some of the bands that you like to play with and stuff?
Oh, the Mormons and Stab City.
Bullshit.
You never played a show with us.
Those are bands we...
No, actually...
We play with them a lot.
Ninja Academy.
We might have played a show like a...
Did you just say Ninja Academy?
We did play a show.
We played with...
He said Ninja Academy.
The Spanish rock band.
Those guys are going to be pissed.
We played a show.
It was like a tease.
It was...
You guys and the Griswine and us.
It was so long ago that Griswine played a tease.
It doesn't...
And Fargo was there, too.
It doesn't make any sense to me.
Well, all right, man.
I guess we've talked enough for this block.
And now it's time for some rock on the More Music Radio Pod.
I'd like to thank you guys, really.
Thanks, everybody.
I'm sorry.

You are listening to the More Music Radio Pod!
Again, he's right.
We have no idea.
Is this on?
Yes.
I didn't know you were capturing me.
And we're back, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to the Meatball Extravaganza.
Oh, boy.
Pasta pachul.
Welcome back to the More Music Radio Pod.
We have 400 blows in studio.
And we're...
Do people still say that?
Kind of wrapping it up.
Nah, I think that was like, probably like a good eight years ago or something.
Well, then I'm sorry.
I like the commercial.
I still sneak one here and here and there, you know, when it's appropriate.
Oh, I didn't mean to offend anyone.
I'm sorry.
The New York Academy.
Yeah, man, you know Ninja Academy, right?
Yeah.
Of course.
Yeah, they're great.
They're fucking awesome, dude.
Yeah.
The bass player...
The bass player is probably the fucking...
They're stealthy, too.
Most extraordinary bass player I've even fucking seen play.
You know what I like is how when they play, how they like jump up in midair and just hang out there like a...
Yeah.
You know.
Oh, man.
You should try that, man.
Like Crouching Tiger hitting Dragon.
It's way too heavy.
No, we...
We played with them at the Old Town Pub in Pasadena.
And they had two people.
They had two people scale the wall and then fucking do nunchucks on the bar.
Yeah.
Fucking...
Not like pussy nunchucks either.
They were like for the real deal.
It was a donkey punch.
I don't know.
Did you really see the guy with the swords and shit?
They were professional.
They were professional nunchucks.
I didn't see any swords.
I saw the nunchucks and repelling the wall.
I thought that was fucking cool.
Is it two of us?
I know the main guy there was Donkey Punch.
Yeah, there was a guy.
They had like different characters.
His name is Donkey Punch?
That's not his real name, but that's what they call him.
He's like a martial artist.
And he fucking pulls out these fucking swords and is fucking doing this fucking ninja shit.
Yeah, ninja shit.
Swordsman of sorts.
Professional nunchuck.
It's one of those sex moves that no one ever does.
Player.
I saw the movie.
I was disappointed.
So how you guys doing, man?
Are you guys getting sleepy now?
What's that?
No.
I'm getting kind of a little groggy, man.
Fucking how many beers did we drink?
There's like a fucking...
I don't know.
Well, thanks to all those rails you guys laid out on the table here.
Where is this at?
Yeah, we're making a train track.
I found a baggie.
We got another six hours, don't we?
I found a baggie.
When does this stuff wear off?
It's off, man.
Fuck.
Why are my jaws so strong right now?
I could pull a fucking 747 right now.
Yeah.
Dude, I just cornered a guy for an hour and a half.
While smoking a cigarette.
I think we're married now.
Yeah.
You guys were pretty close.
Yeah.
What's the worst drug you guys ever took?
Uh...
Really?
Worst drug I ever took?
Aspirin.
Probably.
Probably.
Alcohol.
Probably.
Cigarette.
That's a really...
I stole candy from a baby once.
I don't want to out myself from fucking freebasing and shit, you know?
You got to work tomorrow.
Well, I'd say fucking smoking a crock rack.
Nerds aren't very good for you.
What's a crock rack?
Pop rocks?
A crock rack?
You said crock rack.
Yeah, I did, man.
Dude, apparently...
Because I'm smoking a crack rock.
I was thinking of like a rack of crocodiles.
That's a fucking good band name, man.
Crock rack.
Fucking crock rack, man.
Oh, my God.
I'm not even kidding.
I'm not even kidding.
I'm not even kidding.
I'm not even kidding.
Apparently, if you...
That's our new band.
That's our new band.
Let's do it, man.
Someone practice this tomorrow, dude.
Show up.
Apparently, if you eat pop rocks and drink soda at the same time, you'll become president of the United States.
So what's the worst drug you've ever done?
Tell us some really good drug stories.
Yeah, man.
That's what the world is.
A really good drug story.
You've got several.
Let's break down these walls, man.
Well, I've heard a lot of people say, well, I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
That's what I'm trying to preach.
I can talk about drugs that have actually knocked people's hands and crushed.
Dude, what about that time that me and you did mushrooms at four in the morning?
And then we went to buy beer.
And Scott on mushrooms, by the way, is a thing to behold.
Yeah.
And we were...
Come on, dude.
It's like, yeah, dude.
It's like everything is flying at him at once.
But we went to this Korean store and this poor 80-year-old guy, he was like, I'm gonna go to the store.
I'm gonna go to the store.
I'm gonna go to the store.
I'm gonna go to the store.
I'm gonna go to the store.
I'm gonna go to the store.
I'm gonna go to the store.
I'm gonna go to the store.
But he was like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, or what?
Yeah, I was like, oh, like he was like, it was like there was a machine pulling him in the opposite direction.
Yeah, it was like a leap of faith kind of thing.
I was like, is that guy real for one?
And this old Korean store was like, freak the fuck out.
He didn't know what to say.
Scott's like, oh yeah, my friend here.
I was like, that's my little brother.
Yeah, he's really retarded.
Don't worry.
Just take his money when he gets close to you.
Yeah, I wasn't making a whole lot of sense that day.
Did you guys get a mogwai too?
No.
Do we go to mogwai?
Yeah.
Or get a mogwai?
I saw a mogwai at Coachella this year.
They were great.
You went to that garbage?
No, I didn't.
I've never been to goddamn Coachella and I never will.
I did go to Coachella this year actually.
Yeah, and this guy calls me from Coachella.
I'm on 15 hits of ecstasy.
Oh my God, it's the best time ever.
We got to play here.
I'm like, yeah, that'll never happen and no, and I got to go.
I was driving.
We're going to play inside of the Tesla coil next to Coachella.
Oh yeah, that Tesla coil.
We're going to play at the top of the Ferris wheel.
My favorite stage at Coachella was the beer garden.
Yeah, that's usually my favorite stage at any place.
I'd probably miss every band.
I was holding court.
I was so high and I was, you know, I think like a crowd of like med students from Mexico City were like my best friends for like an hour and a half and then it was a bunch of Australians and oh man, dude, it was magical.
It sounds disgusting.
I mean that.
I mean, it's totally gross.
It was magical.
So, you guys never played like anything big like the Coachella thing or something?
Would you guys, what if you guys got offered it, would you do it?
Fuck yeah, money rules.
As long as I get paid, we'd do it too, but it's never going to happen.
At least, I mean, maybe you guys might.
Yeah, no, we're lucky enough to get paid to have a guarantee.
Maybe us, pop stars.
We played at Coachella.
Oh yeah, we played at Coachella.
We got kicked out.
Yeah.
We got a spot in the We got a spot escorted out by the cops and then we played by the cop car.
The mobile unit got kicked out of Coachella.
That's badass, man.
The mobile unit got kicked out of the front of the FYF fest.
I don't know what that is.
Well, our band, The Mormons, has a mobile unit where we play like in the streets and stuff.
We walk around the streets.
He was telling me today.
Yeah.
I've seen you guys play, but I've never seen that.
That sounds fucking awesome.
It's awesome because you can play anywhere you want pretty much.
So, if there's an event where like, hey, let's go and play for people in line waiting for fucking two hours.
We played the Grammys.
We went to the Grammys and fucking busted over there.
What kind of pocket amps do you guys use?
I use a I use a Vox DA5 or something.
It's like a little, you know, whatever, I guess.
Oh, so it's like that.
It's a cube.
Yeah, yeah, but it's like really loud.
It's really good.
It's one of those little clip-on guys.
With their Mormon outfits.
It's so cute.
It is.
Kids love it.
What was that shit you guys used to have before you played with that robot voice?
Shit, don't pick them up.
Yeah, you should, man.
We'll fucking take those home with us, man.
Somebody put a beer in my backpack one time.
The funny thing is, like everybody, I never have silver dollars on me.
Yeah, if you did, just throw them.
And we have ran into you doing the mobile unit a couple times, too.
Yeah.
And I noticed that you had, that you watch us for a little bit and then you're like trying to figure out when's an appropriate time to leave.
You're like, oh, okay, later guys, I'm out of here.
You're like, why did I run into these guys again?
I fucking see these guys everywhere.
As much of a side it must be to behold, it's when you, you know, play as Zillian.
What am I gonna do?
Stay in there all night?
I'm not a newspaper machine.
Why don't you come home with us?
It'll make you breakfast.
Let's do some crock racks, man.
Dude, I'm down.
Do you have any?
We should go to Pat's house.
I'm fucking hungry, dude.
Crock racks would be great.
You don't wanna make breakfast for me.
It's a blowjob and a V8 juice.
That's what I meant, man.
That's my breakfast.
It's a line of cocaine on a paper plate.
That's my breakfast.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I do.
Don't spill any of this.
Oh.
Then I'll fry some eggs on my hot plate.
I like hot plates, man.
They're good.
They're always hot.
Better than an oven.
So what, like, what was your most, like, memorable show?
Like, what was your biggest show?
Oh.
That, you know, you're chasing the dragon and try to hit that one again.
I don't know.
You know, I think...
They're all big.
For us, I think, like, and I'm not even being facetious, it's like a house party, like, on tour.
Yeah.
Like, somewhere where it's just a bunch of kids that, like...
We've never been there, but it's a bunch of, like, cool kids that are just like, dude, we're so stoked, you know, and it's like...
They don't even know what they're seeing.
And it's just, everyone is like, and it's like 16-year-old kids just shithoused, like, barfing on each other and, like...
Yeah.
It's like fucking complete chaos.
There's no parents around and it's like, was it in a small town?
Well, yeah.
In a benevolent way.
Like, you know, like, Midland, Texas or Flagstaff, Arizona, where people are just like, dude, like, the Flagstaff, Arizona show was so recent, man.
I mean benevolent.
There was this fucking, like, two homeless dudes, like, while we were playing, like, fucking screaming, like, Jimmy Page and shit.
And you're just like, shut up, dude.
And it's like such chaos.
You're just making sure no one breaks all your equipment.
That's the shit right there.
You gotta tell them I come from the West.
Yeah.
Well, no, I'd rather do a whole tour of just house parties because they pay.
People fucking, like, pass a hat around.
Yeah.
You know, it's...
It's way different than it is here in LA.
It's all ages, and it really is because there's nothing like that here.
People just...
People just stand around here and fold their arms and watch the bands.
They don't, like, move around and shit.
Nine out of ten times the Finger Foods buffet in the kitchen is pretty solid.
Yeah.
That's great.
Our rider's very extravagant.
Ice sculptures, everything.
It's great.
Chainsaw?
It's the life, you know?
I would like to see somebody, like, sculpt the ice with a chainsaw.
The best thing is trying to fall asleep on a couch in the living room and having two lesbians that have been partying all night trying to figure out whether or not they want to take you home with them or not.
Oh, God.
He does sing in a band.
That was so gross.
We are lesbians, but...
No, the one girl...
Should we jack him off?
No, no, no.
The best is the one girl going, come on, let me put my tit on his head.
And the other girl going...
The other girl going, he's not Marilyn Manson, by God.
Leave him alone.
It's like, oh, dude, please leave.
It's a different attitude, though, outside of L.
A., man.
It's like people actually appreciate you going over there and playing, you know?
Yeah, and we appreciate them, and it's fucking badass.
I love fucking anybody who gives us things.
People appreciate us here, though, too.
Gives us the time of day.
That good?
That good?
Yeah.
Anybody who's...
But you gotta admit, it is different, though.
Of course it's different.
You know?
I think people appreciate the underground in small towns more than they do in the, you know, like L.
A.
L.
A., everybody's going to the hardball.
It is different, dude.
If you're in Midland, Texas, dude...
It's a show.
Oh, I'm going.
A sack of Doritos is orange gold, man.
No, it's...
Everybody's really like...
Yeah, it's cool to, like, you know...
People got nothing else going on.
It's like, I mean...
Being in jail.
It's like being in jail and there's nothing to do and then finally, like, oh, my God, something.
I don't give a fuck what it is.
Fuck yeah, you know?
Like, and it's cool to...
Because Kings of Leon don't play the small towns.
They do not.
Unfortunately, no.
Man, God.
Yeah.
They come here and they play...
Great band, though. ...the art walk.
It's a way different attitude.
The first couple albums were really good.
I'm going to have them play...
The first 17 albums were fucking fantastic.
I want them to play my funeral just to bum everybody out.
Yeah.
That'd be cool.
Ladies and gentlemen, stick around.
I'd definitely go.
Stick around after the death of this guy for Kings of Leon.
They're actually really boring to watch.
I saw them one time.
Well, thank you very much.
That's my band.
Yeah, Scott's in that band.
I love them, by the way.
I play cello for that band.
That's very rude of you.
Oh, shit.
I'm sorry.
All of a sudden, there's tension.
Well, I mean, you're in, like, so many bands, man, that it's hard.
I mean, it's like stepping on a mine, dude.
Oh, shit.
I just said, oh, shit, I got, I blew my foot off with the Kings of Leon.
I'm playing them, too.
I mean, I'm in Spider-Man.
It's more like stepping on a part.
You're in Saliva.
Yep, I was.
They were a great band.
We branched out, though.
We formed Snot, and then they stayed Saliva.
Oh, that's right.
And then they just called themselves S-Dogs now.
I think.
All right.
They're great guys, though.
They play with Nickelback a lot.
Have you been one of those festivals, the S-Dogs?
Say that again, man.
Nothing.
Nothing.
I don't know.
I'm a juggalo.
He's taking the fifth.
Pleading the fifth.
Pleading the fifth, taking a two.
How did you guys meet?
Because this guy's been in like 20 bands with, I mean, you were telling me you're in a band with members of the Melvins and stuff.
Does it make you uncomfortable talking about stuff like that?
No, no.
I mean, but it's a 400 Blows interview.
Yeah.
No, yeah, yeah.
Like you said, you already said, we're making the album.
The album's done.
It's going to come out.
Yeah, no, I play, I like to play, if I don't play in a bunch of bands, I tend to make really bad decisions, you know, socially, I guess.
If you say it nicely.
Drug wise or something.
I don't know.
If I'm not super busy, if I'm not playing music all the time, then I turn into a kind of a degenerate.
So, yeah, I keep myself very busy.
Right.
And I'm really stoked on everything, you know, and namely, you know, 400 Blows, fucking, I'm really stoked on it.
Well, I just want to say I love the Kings of Leon.
Me too.
And I don't know what this guy is talking about.
Man.
Yeah.
My sex is on fire.
But see, that's the thing, man.
It's just like everybody has like an opinion, you know, and that's kind of the cool thing about it.
Some people like some stuff.
Some people don't like this.
Some people like that.
I don't like very much of anything.
Really?
Except, well, you, I like.
I like the Scots too.
Oh.
I'm, I'm, I'm, What's in your iPod?
You know, I think my iPod's at his house.
My iPod's at his house and I haven't updated it in a while.
And it's probably, I don't know, embarrassing right now.
I don't want you to look at it, no.
You know what, man?
I know what you mean.
Just all Beatles.
All Beatles songs.
No, it's like probably all U.
S.
Maple, I think.
Oh.
Oh, I've got, I don't know.
I never get to see them live.
It's one of, yo, man.
I heard like one story One of the greatest fans I've ever seen live.
I don't know who this is, but I'm going to smoke it.
I've been listening to a lot of Afro beats.
I remember hearing a story where the famous last words.
I don't know what this is, but I'm going to smoke it.
I want to hear it if it's about U.
S.
Maple, please.
No, and it's like, I think it was like, I don't know, maybe wrong.
I remember it was like Tony and Andy talked about seeing them and there was like something happened where they got somebody out of the audience and he held a knife up to his neck while he was singing.
That doesn't sound like something that U.
S.
Maple I don't think so either.
I never saw him live.
But I know a very famous front man that stole a move from the singer and told me about it because he's a famous front man in a band and was Does he move around?
I have.
Why do you always have to bring Axl Rose up?
I know, I know.
Okay, Axl, if you're listening, I'm sorry.
But he told me that he stole a move from Al Johnson from U.
S.
Maple where he like just puts his mic in his pocket and walks over.
He just, he does these really creepy things the whole time.
It's fucking amazing.
It's really great.
But this isn't the U.
S.
Maple show.
Yeah.
I want to focus I want to focus more on 400 Blows right now.
I'm sorry, if you get me going on U.
S.
Maple and I think I got me going on U.
S.
Maple.
Sorry.
You guys should try to get on a porno soundtrack.
Okay.
With a name like 400 Blows, that'd be perfect.
Do like some kind of Snoop Dogg like hosting thing like where he just is in there with like chicks with their top socks like, yo, this is my porno and then boom and then it's just hardcore fucked up scenes from other videos and like we get money for some reason.
Paris Hilton got famous that way.
Not that way.
Well, yeah, not by being on a soundtrack, but by you.
That was just part of fame, I believe.
She did one blow and that got her famous.
She got little titties and stuff.
Like, what's, I don't get that.
That's fucking awesome.
You like big fat old titties?
I like all titties.
I think all titties are fantastic.
We can't be in a porn unless it's internet porn.
I will say this, man.
Raise your hand if you're breastfed.
Fred, what?
I will, well, since it's on the radio, nobody could see the hands being raised, but like, I always say that what really makes it, it doesn't have to be big, what really makes the tit is it has to be a nice nipple.
You can have big titties and they have the fucking big sand dollar fucking black marks that are just like smudge marks on the tits.
Or they could just have like little tiny, like not even nipples and stuff like that.
You got a problem with Roman coins.
The thing is, how do you know this, Vince?
Have you seen those in person?
I mean, porn I understand, but, you know.
Well, feel nicer than they look.
I have had the pleasure of viewing.
I think women, if you're listening, probably not.
You're all beautiful.
We've been to a lot of chichi bars.
That's the thing.
Me too.
That's Sam Softbrow, by the way.
I want to give them a plug.
Right there next to the TV.
They only get bikinis there, aren't they?
No.
It's a bikini bar?
Nope.
Topless?
Fuck yeah.
I haven't been to that one.
They keep it really well.
All dudes.
Let's just say you could stink a finger up if you wanted to.
I'm all about the Alameda strip.
There's no cover and the dances are $10.
But you're next to a paisa dude.
What's wrong with that?
The stripper's like 40.
That dude has the best coke in the room.
Cowboy hat means cocaine.
Yeah, it's on the rim.
I'm just gonna take your chances and snort it.
But it ain't those bars.
My stashes are poor, man.
I don't know.
You gotta walk out of the bathroom looking like you just ate a powdered donut with your hands tied behind your back.
You're bobbing for donuts.
That's a way of romanticism.
What are you guys talking about?
I have no idea.
Movies.
Well, cool, guys.
So for people listening, how can people get a hold of you?
How can people await the new album?
We have a website.
What?
Catch them on MySpace.
Yeah, don't catch us on MySpace.
Yeah.
That's all about MySpace.
Is that thing fucking over?
If you look on our website, foreignerblows.net, actually, our MySpace link is a picture of a tombstone.
It has MySpace engraved on it because it's like, who fucking cares?
But yeah, foreignerblows.net and then if you subscribe and we send out mailers and we let everybody know what's going on.
But yeah, we're working very hard on this next record and the next tour is going to be really big and it's going to be really cool.
Yeah, man.
I'm looking forward to it.
We'd like you guys to be a part of it as well in some respect.
We've been beating that into your heads since you guys have been here.
I know, I know.
I've seen the light.
I've come.
I've come across the table and, you know.
And we practice in Echo Park too, man.
So we'll walk to your house or something.
Bedrock.
And hang out with you until you die.
I got roommates, man.
You practice in Echo Park, man, with Nina Academy?
Where do you guys practice at?
So everybody can go.
We practice in a room at Bedrock Studios.
A room is it?
Yeah.
That place is expensive.
So you're in a room with like 50 other bands?
No, we get stuck.
It is expensive.
It is expensive.
We share it with another band and, man, we're just fucking day jobbing and trying to do it, man.
Trying to get to the point where we get a guarantee.
That sucks for you, man.
We got in there kind of early when they were kind of first setting up and we didn't have any place to practice.
We were at ABC for a long time.
That's what I was going to say because we were across from you guys, right?
I was telling him today and he's like, I don't remember that.
Oh, yeah, there you go.
The things we needed, like, well, whatever.
This place is starting up.
Those were the salad days.
I tossed so much salad that day.
We're just there.
We're still there, but, you know.
You never go ass to mouth.
You never go ass to mouth.
Did, when you guys practiced at ABC, did you guys run into Chris Holmes from Wasp at all?
Did we?
I don't know.
The guy in the white Corvette, the tweaker guy?
Ran into Pat Smear and, uh, fuck.
And I don't know who else practiced.
Oh, you know, the breeders were practicing there.
Yeah, I remember that.
No, but Chris Holmes, though.
Fuck all those other people.
Chris Holmes, the guy from Wasp.
Is that the cellist?
Yes, he was the cellist.
That's funny.
He had a buddy.
He had a buddy who hung out with him all the time and he had a Chris Holmes tattoo on his arm.
Autograph tattoo.
And he also had the word shit tattooed on his arm.
They were always tweaking.
What about that one girl that hung out with him?
It was all, like, hunchback.
She had, like, an inverted vagina.
She walked all weird.
Yeah.
Did she have inverted nipples as well?
I don't, I can't say I got to know her very well.
She had a concave chest.
Dude, listen to this guy, man.
The FBI might get a hold of your porn collection.
What?
What?
You said it's all streaming.
It's okay.
It's not on there.
Well, cool, guys.
So, Jeremy, tell us what's going on with Skid Row Studios.
We got a show tomorrow.
Yeah, so tomorrow's the LaFrost and Moe show.
They're going to have Chud in the studio.
Those, a bunch of guys, you might know the one guy, Vice.
He's a regular on the LaFrost and Moe show.
He's in Chud.
And then...
You got Mike Watt coming in.
He's coming on Saturday, man.
Yeah, so the pinata hour is interviewing Mike Watt on Saturday morning.
Oh, that's cool, man.
So look for that on the next episode of the pinata hour, which is on Wednesdays starting at 7 to 9.
So you're just, it's not going to be live?
This one's not going to be live because, you know, we have to work with his schedule and he has to do it super early and I don't think anybody that listens to this show has to go practice with the stooges.
Yeah.
So nobody's going to be up at 9 a.m.
So we're just going to cut that in into a feature episode.
I'll wake up that early.
I'll listen.
That's going to be Wednesday?
Wednesday, 7 to 9 is the pinata hour.
Skid Row.
LA, man.
This fucking shit is taking over.
We got 400 blows in studio.
And you're not going to have us.
Thanks for not listening.
Oh, yeah.
I appreciate it.
No, thank you.
Thank you guys.
You guys are very loose.
Thanks a lot for coming in.
You guys are very sweet.
Yeah, man.
We really appreciate the pizza and the beer.
Hey, Vince, aren't you supposed to have somebody on the next show?
What's his name?
Buddyhead?
Oh, man.
I'll call in as Trevor Scottsville.
Yeah, we're going to have to have Trevor Scottsville come in because the thing...
Well, Buddyhead, actually, the guy, Travis Keller, was supposed to come in.
Tonight?
Yeah.
Do you know that guy?
Yeah, yeah.
He's not generally the most friendliest of persons, you know?
No.
And we had him...
Well, we had him scheduled to come in and everything was cool and, I mean, long story short, he's not coming in.
The last message I got him was, fuck your show.
I'm not doing it.
Eat me.
Yeah, he woke up at noon to ask him something.
Wait, wait.
And he was supposed to be on tonight, but instead of him, you got us?
No, no, no.
Actually, he was supposed to be on next week, but it didn't really work out, man.
It turns out that...
He's a busy man.
Yeah, I guess he's a busy man, but I don't think that really had anything to do with it.
You know, it's just like...
Sometimes, I mean, we don't really mix well with a lot of people, you know, whatever.
He's one of their assholes.
Somebody like that, yeah.
Especially that dude, you know, whatever.
I didn't know him personally.
Fuck, yeah.
And I had him coming in and it didn't work out.
Fantastic gentleman.
And, you know, so he's not coming in.
So what happened, Vince?
That's his way of telling you that he loves you.
Why don't you tell us some details about what actually went down?
Well, you know, like Scott said, you know, it's like, we're not here to tell you We're not here to talk shit, man, you know, but if you really want to know...
We're not?
No, we're not here to talk shit.
Yes, we are.
We're here to talk about 400 blows and stuff like that.
I mean, we can.
No, we can talk shit.
It's just, you know...
I got nothing bad to say about nobody, especially Travis Keller.
Yeah, no, Travis is cool, man.
I know him in a very cursory manner.
I don't know him very well, but he's never been not nice to me.
Aside from that, he wasn't very nice to me and I just wanted to have him on the show.
What all happened?
What all happened, man?
Well, he was...
I guess he was on tour or something and when he got back, he was having like a party.
Like he was DJing at the Golden Gopher and he's like, hey, man, can you text this thing?
Can you tweet it?
You know what I mean?
I'm like, oh, okay, sure.
I'll tweet your shit, man.
And fucking...
So this week, I'm like, hey, man, you know, fucking show's coming up, all this stuff.
Can you tweet this thing?
We have a...
Oh, the Mormons have a free download at Bandcamp, themormons.bandcamp.com.
Yeah.
Pick that up.
It's our new EP that's going to be out in a couple of weeks.
Do they have a website or where can I get that?
You can get that at themormons.bandcamp.com.
Okay.
So I had this link.
So I had this link set up and I'm like, okay, dude, I scratched your back last week, whatever.
I'm like, hey, Travis, can you tweet this thing?
Thanks, man.
And he sent me back the bitchiest fucking message, man.
And it's like, you know what?
I know, I understand.
He's like, you know, whatever the kind of...
That's his thing.
That's his thing, you know?
That's his thing and stuff, you know?
But he sent me the bitchiest fucking message back saying like, fucking, dude, like he's like, dude, if you tweet me one more time about...
Dude, and this is where it gets retarded with this fucking social networking thing.
If you tweet me or text me one more time, man, I'm not going to come to the show.
I'm not going to do it.
You know, you woke me up.
Fucker, chill, fucker.
And I'm like, what?
And dude, I looked at the clock.
It's 12 fucking 45 in the fucking... in the afternoon, dude.
Oh, maybe he has a good schedule.
So whatever.
For some people.
For some people, that's such a lie.
That's pretty early.
I don't know.
I let him off the hook.
I love being somebody that's defending Travis Keller.
I'm just kidding.
I let him off the hook.
I said, fine, that's no problem.
You don't have to come in, you know, if you're going to be a fucking little bitch about it.
I mean, I don't know the guy.
He might not have been feeling well, man.
Yeah.
Let's just leave it at this.
Some people don't get along, man.
This is the way it is.
We can't all get along.
And that's the way it is.
Yeah.
So, yeah, we won't be having a buddy hitting.
Travis Keller has his detractors.
Yes, he does.
Hey, Travis.
Make call me.
No, I'm not sure.
It's me, Scottie Martin.
You know what?
He's not going to call.
Travis, if you're listening, it's me.
I don't think he's going to call in.
This guy is, I don't think he has the guts to call in 1-800-893-9562.
He's probably not listening.
Let me just put in a plea.
It doesn't matter, man.
That's a different.
Mr. Keller, please.
He has a hair appointment next fucking week, so he has to kind of prepare for that.
Dude, getting woken up at 1245 in the afternoon, that's fucking hipster hours.
Those are my hours.
I'm certain.
Well, I do agree.
I'm a custodian.
I don't go to work until 2, but I don't know what that guy's doing.
I throw up a lot.
He's still a jerk, though.
No, but anyway, and actually, we're not going to have a show next week because Jeremy's going to be out of town, but on June 2nd, on Thursday, June 2nd, we're going to have Very Be Careful in.
Oh, great.
And we're going to have them, I think the brothers are going to come in and play a couple songs.
Those guys are awesome.
Yeah, those guys are cool, man.
So fucking anyway, you guys want to stick around and in a couple weeks, come back and listen to this.
So next week, you'll probably hear the best of the more music radio pod or something, you know?
All right.
I'll be in a hot air balloon at that time. a marathon or something while I'm gone.
Yeah, man.
And we'll be sure to tweet Buddyhead at 1245 and wake him up.
Travis is going to be DJing the Black Boar on...
Let's ask him to listen to the radio show.
I'm sure he'll do it.
You know, I'm going to really try.
You know, I don't know, man.
I mean, to be honest...
I'm going to reach out to him.
That fucking shit really, really, really fucking rubbed me wrong, man.
You know what I mean?
Because it's like...
I mean, we're just trying to do a fucking radio show, man.
Well, I know he's not listening.
And have people come in and stuff.
I lie to that guy.
I lie to that guy constantly.
He always texts me.
He's like, hey, man, I'm DJing.
And it's always when we're playing.
And I go...
