We are here with Princess Frank. We're listening to some Kill Sonic in the background, man. Oh, yeah. Yeah, what are you playing Kill Sonic? I'm the snare drummer. I know you, but, I mean, the world doesn't, I mean, necessarily. This is going to be interesting talking to you guys. Like, I haven't known you for, like, 15 years. I know, just pretend I just woke up from a coma and you're like, okay, this is your life. This is what's been happening. Yeah, you know, there's, like, people in Germany, like, you know, tuning across the internet dial and being like, what is this? Kill Sonic? Kill Sonic. So, yeah, I think I've known Frank just about as long as I've known anyone in the world. It's about, like, pushing, like, 30 years. You're definitely my oldest best friend. You know, I bet you know them a lot longer than you know Frank. Who's that? Your parents. Yeah, just a little. Who's that? I've known this guy longer than. Anybody, even my mom. No, in Kill Sonic, I play the snare. I'm the conductor. I'm the cue giver. I'm the secretary of hype. I am the electrical conduit. All right. Yeah, you write some songs, too. For people listening, I don't know if they're the reading types, but they may have seen stuff about Kill Sonic in LA Weekly. They had a nice little cover story. That was, yeah. Two years ago. Hey, look at that. Check out the Library of Congress for that. Yeah, you guys are getting, like, really fucking cool professional gigs, man. Yeah. You're not just getting $40. No. And a couple drink tickets like we are. I was saying we did a thing for LACMA. We did the closing of the Tim Burton exhibit at LACMA for Halloween weekend. It was Halloween. Yeah, the weekend of Halloween, and it was a well-paid gig. There was the most incredible costumes I've ever seen. They had a whole costume party. Well, yeah. There better be some good costumes at a fucking Tim Burton party, right? It was expensive, and people put a lot of money into it, and they paid us really well. Who knows? I was thinking that. I was like, I want to see them, but he could have been wearing a costume. He could have been dressed as Brad Pitt. You know, I look at that guy, and I'm like, he looks like he's from, like, on the other side of the country, like Boston or, like, Philadelphia or something. He's from fucking Burbank. Yeah. He was born in Burbank. I know. That's where my dad works. I told my dad. He's like, I've got to see the exhibit. But, yeah, we did the closing. We did the closing for that. We've been just getting a lot of really good high-profile, like, art world gigs. And, yeah, that's pretty much. I mean, we did an opera last year at the Red Cat, the Walt Disney Concert Hall, which got us a lot of press. I mean, that pretty much broke us into the art world. So, like, tell us about Kill Sonic. Like, I mean, like I said, you know, I know you, so, like, I can probably answer the questions for you. But for people that are listening right now and don't know who Kill Sonic is, let them know. Well. Well, Kill Sonic is a upwards of 20-person mobile jazz orchestra, like a giant marching band, but we don't march and play. And it's definitely. It's more like stumbling. Yeah. Stumbling and playing. You ever tried to walk with an instrument while playing it? Actually, yeah. It's kind of hard. Oh, yeah. In fact, we have. Oh, remember? In fact, we still do it. And you guys do it. Oh, yeah. You guys got a mobile unit. We got a mobile unit. We're, I mean, Kill Sonic and the Mormons mobile unit. It's not like a ride. It's kind of a trend. It's a rivalry because it's totally two different things. Oh, yeah. And we got a lot more people, so. It's cool to be at the beginning of the trend. You know what I mean? Yeah. It's just like. Yeah. Then now everybody's going to be buying, you know, Vox DA5s with six C-cell batteries and walking around playing rock music and fucking. No, they're going to have solar panels on them. You know. Oh, that's a good idea. After band practice, they're like, hey, let's just go to the subway and play and stuff. So you guys actually like to invade public spaces and play. Yeah. The whole thing came about because of when we started Kill Sonic. Back in like 2000. It was a more of a jazz, a conventional jazz group. You know, I was playing drum set. We had an upright bass player, guitar player, clarinet player that played all woodwinds, sometimes two at the same time. He's a total badass, Brian Walsh. That was after you guys were going by Blue Metropolis. No, that was Blue Metropolis. And then, yeah, that was after. Blue Metropolis was just an interesting band that Kill Sonic morphed into because of the fact that we were just. It was kind of more traditional. It was more straight ahead. And it was. So that's what started it off. Yeah. It was. Remember when. Remember when Swing was hot for that. Those three months. Like, you know, somewhere back in the 90s. Oh, yeah. I remember. Yeah. Yeah. It's barely. Before the Derby became the Chase Bank. Yes. Yes. So, I mean, we started that way back then. And then we were selling out places and, you know, people were dancing and people loved it. And we were just on stage and it was just we were bored out of our minds, you know, going through the motions. Right. It was, you know, we did that that group for a while. And then we just decided to take it somewhere else. And the Kill Sonic symbol actually came before the name Kill Sonic. We saw the symbol. My partner in Kill Sonic, Mike, his wife, his now wife, girlfriend at the time, saw the image in a dream. And she put it on a flyer of ours. I'm like, where did you see this image? We were like, that's the image. But what is it called? Like, I know that that's what we want it to be. But what's it called? So we waited before we knew it. Were you guys like eating mushrooms the night before? No. We were just. We were just. Sitting around. I had the same kind of dreams, too. But, you know, the name just fell out of the sky. We're like, that's it, man. So Kill Sonic became this avant-garde, you know, jazz group that was like free jazz and, you know, 20th century classical avant-garde music and electrical. I mean, it was just way out there. And, of course, our audience and our fan base in Blue Metropolis hated it. So we lost everyone and started over. Why did they hate it, do you think? Oh, man. It's a big difference. Really? Big difference. We were going. Big difference in music? Big difference in music. Okay. Whereas Blue Metropolis, for example, would have been like a dancer, dancier kind of group and people would dance. So Blue Metropolis was kind of like big band-ish? It was kind of more big band-y, you know. That's when we just started working together. And luckily we realized that we didn't want to do that anymore. So we challenged ourselves and challenged the audience and took things in a more textual, just visual kind of way instead of just writing music conventionally. We started getting into Ornette Coleman. We started getting into. We started getting into Gorky Ligety, who's an avant-garde classical composer. Stravinsky. We should have Arlo in here because he's a big jazz guy. Arlo from Mr. T's. Arlo, yeah. You'd have a really long show if Arlo came in here. Yeah, we did. We had like a two and a half hour long show. You guys would be here till like two talking to Arlo because he is a wealth of information and stories, that guy. He's still, yeah, he taught me how to play the drums. You know, the thing about Arlo is he's a drummer. Like he says, he's always playing drums and stuff behind the console. And everything. But like me and the guys are always like, you know what? Like Arlo says that he knows how to play drums. But like I don't know anybody who has seen Arlo play drums. Exactly. And I want to see him play drums. He probably does it when nobody's there. And I bet you tried to get him behind the drum set. I have. I have. But it's always, it's always at Mr. T's. Yeah. There's never any time. It's always like, hey, blah, blah, blah, blah. Oh, I got to go back to the booth. Oh, I got to go. Yeah. He's like, oh, no, I guess I got to go and, you know. Oh, hey, break. I got to go get a Pepsi and a wishy. Right. So Kill Sonic started from all that. And then we turned it into this large format group to stick it to the man. No. We put it together to just change the format and do something a little more challenging to ourselves. Because like with the changeover from the band before, to take it to this large format was like, all right, well, now we can play wherever we want. We don't require electricity. We don't require venues. That's great. You know? Yeah. And in this town, especially, like the bands get screwed over. They get screwed over all the time. So tell us about the first time that you went out. Like, what made you go like, hey, you know what? Why don't we just jump out on the street? Why don't we just jump out on the street and start playing? Well, yeah, we actually played at a place called Il Corral that used to be around. And they asked us to play. And they expected us to play in our old conventional setting with the drum set. And we were like, let's do this. Was it a Sean Carnage show? I'm not sure. Yeah, because Sean Carnage used to do shows when he first started doing shows in L.A. over at the Il Corral. Yeah, possibly. That's right. I was wondering why that name was. Yeah, I listened to his show on the weekend. Yeah. On that other, on that station. Oh, this isn't a radio station. It's a radio station. But it is. This is a radio station. But not the radio. You could have maybe said that about the last place because it was up at Jeremy's, like, apartment, like penthouse apartment up in the sky. It's like the Jeffersons, except Jeremy lived there. And up on the loft, he had like a whole studio. He'd still do the walk, though. Yeah. He has his own, like, you know. You call him the judge. Or the neighbor would come. And Jeremy would have to step on his back to crack, to fix his back. Wow. He had like a Mr. Bentley. But he was Mexican. But, so, yeah. So, I mean, it's a lot different. I mean, right here we're up at a real, like, radio station. Yeah, this is nice. Like, it's a real place. And there's a lot of shit going on, man. There's a mural being painted by Tony T. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Last week he was working on Zach Delaroche's face. And now he's, it looks like he's completed, Zach Delaroche. And he's working on. Zach. Zach. He's working on Bukowski right now. Bukowski over there. Yeah. In fact, when we were kids, we played a show at his warehouse. Oh, man. In Highland Park. That was in the 90s. Yeah, I was like 15. And he's like, you know, Rage Against the Machine is huge. And he just got in a car. Yeah, and he's like setting up my drums. I'm like, dude, this is crazy. Yeah. I remember setting up my drums. That was back in 93 or something. Yeah, yeah. Wow. Yeah, and as it turns out, the Mormons took over his practice. He took over his space at ABC Studio after he moved out. Oh, nice. Over the next 10 years. Did it still smell like him in there? It did smell kind of like old beard. Smelled like communism. Old beard grease. Communism. Wow. So, yeah, man. So, you guys decide, okay, we're just going to fucking. So, you're at the Il Corral and that's when you decide to just take it to the street? That was the first time we decided to take it, yeah. So, you guys were playing inside? Yeah, we just kind of started around the corner and just marched in. They were like, what the fuck is going on? We're like, we're here. It's Kill Sonic. Oh, okay. We played. We played. Marched right back out. So, it was you and Mike, right? Me and Mike. So, who was the one that had the idea about this? Mike. Mike had the idea. He and I are partners on everything, man. It's like we excite each other about shit, you know? Yeah. Like, hey, I want to do this thing. And I'm like, oh, yeah, fuck it. Let's do it. Yeah. So, he called people. And the craziest part is the more people he called, the more people were like, I want to do this too. So, before we knew it, our first setup with a large scale group was 15 people. I mean, that's a lot of people. Right. Right. And now I get a. Solid, steady 18 to 22 heads. Wow. That's a lot of people. All the time. Yeah. And so, I mean, with all those people, I mean, all those people are probably like in other bands and stuff, right? Do you want to give a shout out to. Oh, my God. Shout out. I always say shout out, but I think it's shout out, right? Right. Do you want to give a shout out? Oh, let me see. If you were a Canadian. Let me see. It'd be. Shout out. Shout out. Shout out. Shout out. Yeah. There's El Harucuroi. And what bands? Yeah. Yeah. So, what bands are there? Yeah. There's El Harucuroi. El Harucuroi. Who else is in there? Let me see. You got any names for the whiteys? A.K.A. Nikoleshnikovs. Yeah. And then there's people who like play with other people. I don't know. I just. Yeah. I just played a show with Dorian Wood, who was also in Kill Sonic. So, there's a lot of people, man. It's a lot of heads. Everybody's got their own thing going on. And you just got to. Hey, can you do it? Yeah. I'll be there. So, how many years going now? In this format? Four. Four years, man. Four years. Yeah. We were the first band in L.A. to do a subway tour, which got us the write-up in the L.A. Weekly. It was because we decided, hey, well, since we don't need electricity, we got all these accordion players. I mean, pretty much the accordions took the place of the guitar. Right. You know? And then the tubas take the place of the bass. The drummers are all my limbs. And, you know, the horn players. So, I said, well, why don't we, you know, play in the subways? He's like, let's make a tour. I'm like, yeah. So, we made a train schedule. Told everybody, hey, here's your. Here's your train schedule. From this time to this time, Kill Sonic will be here. Then Kill Sonic will be here. Then we're going to be here. And we just started at the red line from Universal. Did you play in the subway? We're not actually allowed to play in the tub. But as soon as those doors shut on the subway train, we go off, man. Oh, really? And then as soon as they open, stop. And then just wait. It's the middle of somebody's solo. Oh, that's a good idea. You know what? We've, like, taken train trips and stuff. But we're working. We're worried about getting, like, a ticket. So, like, we don't play, like, on the platform. Yeah. And we pretty much followed the rules that they told us. Pretty much, like, also, like, I guess it's, like, the, like, 18, 20 people. You feel, like, more confident and stuff, you know? Yeah, definitely. And it's just, like, four of us. So, and then there's, like, a lot of fucking weirdos on the train. Right, right. So, we're just like, fuck. Like, we can't wait to get to where we're. No, the way we did it. We can't wait to get to the Grammys at the Staples. Right. And fucking. We cleared it with the Metro. So, we told them ahead of time, like, hey, we want to do this. There's a lot of, you know, we pitched it to them. That's the way you do in any kind of business, right? Hey, a lot of our people ride the Metro, and it's good for you, and it's good publicity for you, and you're good publicity for us. They said, all right, you can do this. You can't do this. You can do this here. You can't do this. And they gave us an okay. Really? Wow. Did they give you, like, a, was it signed kind of, like, permission slip or something to do it? I'm not sure. I wasn't on the end of that deal. But they didn't. So, let us know. Let the Mormons know. What are the rules? Give us the rules. The rules, no. Don't play on the platform. There's certain, like, Hollywood and Highland cannot play there. Not even up on the street. Really? Yes. Cannot. Hmm. Yep. Even, like, by Man's Chinese and shit like that? They'll get pissed off? That's, that's, they have their own cops there. Oh, shit. That are not part of the... They have purple shirts and stuff. Yeah, they have the... The purple shirt cops. The purple shirts. Right. I fucking hate the purple shirt cops because, I mean, they don't even, they don't even wear, like, dark shirts, like, intimidating shirts. I mean, would you... You don't even have a... Gun. This guy doesn't have a gun. You don't even have a taser. He's on a fucking bicycle and is wearing a lavender polo shirt, you know? But they're cute. Not intimidating. But they're cute. So, now, yeah, that's, that's one of the first things we did with Killsonic, which got us a lot of press in the weekly, and then we got offered through one of the trombone players. We, I don't know how it happened, but the, you know, the people at the Red Cat got a hold of us for the, um, the Now Festival in 2009. Or was it? No, 2009. Yes. Cool. And, uh... Yeah. We did an opera. We did, uh, we wrote a whole opera, and everybody within the group, I mean, we had an opera singer, we had 15 female opera singers with megaphones. I had the whole band. I had five people on cast that were people within the band. I had a lighting guy, sound guys that were all within the band. Costume designers, makeup designers that were all in the band. Um, you know, set designers, everybody in the band. You guys got to wear makeup? Yeah. We don't have no makeup, people. It was an opera. We don't get to wear makeup. It was, it was an, it was like a, they called it an absurdist opera. And it was very refreshing to the, uh, to the theater community because we were a band trying to do an opera, and it was wild. I mean, we took that place over, man. The Red Cat Theater was ours. There was, they said they never made so much money off a band at the bar because we were just, I mean, there's a lot of us in work. Yeah. Yeah, we were buying up beers all the time. Oh, we're going to go rehearse. Yeah. They made so much money off of us. They made so much money. Damn, then they gave it right back to us. Yeah, that's nice. Yeah. Yeah. Like free drinks. Yeah, totally. So yeah, we did that. We've been doing, you know, we did, uh, LACMA, second time we do LACMA. We worked with West of Rome Public Art. West of Rome is like a public art, uh, organization here in town. Right. And, uh, yeah, we got, went to New York this year. I flew 22 people out to New York. Oh yeah, that's right, man. How are the logistics of that? How do you do that? How do you organize 20 people to go? How many texts and emails that shit takes? And then you have to get everybody's names. And it just, you have to be, you have to do things early enough to allow for what we like to call chaos time. How much time did you allow yourself? Well, we tell people way ahead of time, way ahead of time. We need this. We need this. Oh, so everybody has their stuff. You could still be like, Hey, I still need you two people and, you know, get the money. That's fundraising, getting the money together. That's getting. And you're tracking people to see if they have the money to do the thing. Are you paying for it? Everybody's paying for the ticket. This is all within the band. This is fundraising that we did within the band to be able to get the money to do this. I mean, it was like eight. So you guys had to like play a lot of shows for it. Yeah. Almost $9,000. Wow. Round trip? Well, for everybody. Everybody got their trip paid for. We had enough people out there. So everybody had a place to stay for free. And we bought everybody a MetroCard. So everybody got a MetroCard for the week while they were there. And we went out there like, Oh, we got these shows booked. It's going to be awesome. We go out there. We land on a Tuesday. Oh, there's a hurricane coming. Fucking hurricane came that weekend. It shut down the whole city. We didn't make any money. Oh, fuck. But we had a hurricane party and it was badass. We came back totally broke. Oh, well. Because we were supposed to make like upwards of like two, three grand that weekend. But that was the weekend the storm came through and shut down the whole city of New York. I couldn't believe it. Wow, man. Yeah. But you still had a good time. Oh, hell yeah. That's like the spirit of it, right? I've never been in a hurricane, dude. So I got on the roof of this building. I got in my underwear and it was a hurricane. Did you have the electric tape on your nipples? No. Everybody loves talking about that. Well, you're Princess Frank, right? That's right. And that was my trademark for a long time. Usually guys wouldn't be like, hey, you know what? I'm Princess Vince. You know what I mean? But you embrace it. You love that. Oh, yeah. What does it mean, Princess Frank? I'm just as much a lady as I am a gentleman. Are you gay? I mean, we've talked about this before. Yeah, we've talked about this. No, that's the fun part. I like the confusion it causes. I'm not gay at all. Yeah. I mean, I love women. I smelled your face right now and it was a little... It's legit. A little tangy. No, Princess Frank just comes. It comes from... Shit, I've been Princess Frank for like eight years already. I'm serious. I have. I just decided one day, I'm Princess Frank. That's a phrase that hasn't been said a lot. Yes. But when I came up with it, you know, people were always telling me in my other band, Master Slave, oh, you remind me of Prince. I'm like, fucking, that's an awesome compliment. Thanks. And then people lost it. And Prince was kind of gay, too. So you're like, you know what? Fuck that guy. I'm Princess. Yeah, exactly. That's what it all came down to. They were like, oh, you remind me of Prince. Oh, well, I can't be Prince. And I'm not a... I'm not... I can't be the king. And I'm not a queen. I'm Princess. I'm Princess Frank. And all of a sudden, these lights shine before my eyes. Like, oh. I was like, fuck that Princess Frank. So is it because it's kind of like you're very demanding or something? I can, you know, I can be lots of different ways. I can be demanding. It all... I can be demanding. I can be serious. Do you get like that with your women in the bedroom? Shh. Yes. I always want to know about like what people are doing, especially Princess Frank. A guy, Princess Frank, you want to know what he's doing, I guess. Or I do. I don't know about you, Dan. With the name Princess Frank. Dan, you've known him for... I already know too much. Yeah. All right. With the name like Princess... With the name like Princess Frank, I've gotten to do the most incredible things that I would not have been to do otherwise. You know what? With a name like that, too, like it would probably bring like girls like defenses down, too, right? And they're... Yeah. Yeah. It's exactly that. It's right. All the way down to the ground. I tell my girlfriend, too, it's like, you know, whatever. I'm like really jealous. Like I fucking hate it when like dudes are talking to my... It's just like, say it's okay. Say it's like I have low self-esteem, whatever, no confidence, whatever. I'm fucking jealous. I hate it when fucking dudes are like trying to fucking hit on my chick and stuff like that. Or I hear that my chick is like talking to like dudes or something. Like, you know, they're friends. So you have to like be cool with it. Like, okay, you're friends. You know what? You know what? You know what? You know what? You know what? You know what? You know what? Half the planet, half of the planet is dudes. Yeah, I know. So they got to talk to each other. Even still, I hate it. So anyway, she has... I'm like, oh, fine. Hey, just take it off my hands for like 10 minutes. That's fine. Sometimes she's like, oh, no, that's my friend. Oh, no, he's gay and stuff like that. I'm like, baby, he's... Yo, baby, why are all your friends gay? What's up with that? Don't you know about the pretending to be gay to get pussy trick? Yes. So you're here to say that it works. I think you got this. I think you got this. Oh, boy, it does. Well, cool, man. Hey, you know what? Let's take another break and play another couple songs. And we're going to hear some Master Slave coming up, right? Awesome, yeah. And we'll be back and we'll talk about Master Slave. And we're also going to hear some Tripod coming up, too.

You ever seen her Frankenhole? I think that was one of her movies. Stankenhole? Yeah. No, she does parodies. She does Not Another Teen Movie, Not Another Porn Movie. Her movies have an element of comedy and realness in them. It's just pretty interesting. She has a series of videos called Come On My Tattoo. Which I did want to write a song for as well, but we never got around to it. Sounds like a nice... She's a nice girl. She's a nice Jewish girl. But she started... Is she circumcised? You know, they do that shit in Africa for reals though. What was I going to say? Oh. She wanted to start a new series of movies called Rock and Roll in My Butthole. So I had met her a couple times and through a friend of a girlfriend I had then, she was working behind the scenes in the porn industry and I got to meet a lot of porn stars and watch them get fucked. Oh really? What was that like? My favorite was watching Sasha Gray doing her point of view anal. Oh shit. Yeah, it was great. So you enjoyed it, right? Did you pop a boner? I didn't get... Yeah. Yeah. Were you hoping they were asking you, hey, we need somebody to stand in, somebody to scream their dick? I would have totally wanted to do that if I hadn't seen like two guys, three guys go before me. That's cool. You didn't want sloppy thirds. But yeah, for Joanna Angel, yeah, so I wrote this song with her called Rock and Roll in Your Butthole. We went over there, she's like, I want to write a song about buttholes. Alright, well, I took over my acoustic. You know, I love the Mormons. I think she said that and then Patrick said that one time too. No, but I so I went over with my acoustic and I came up with the, all I want to do is rock and roll in your buttholes. Like, oh shit, that's it. I played it for her. We wrote the lyrics together and I was like, you know, I kind of want it to be a duet. She's like, alright, well, we have to get it done really soon. I'm like, well, like when? She's like, in three days. I'm like, well, fuck, alright. What do we do for two days? Just put rock and roll all in the butthole. So we just did the song. We went and did the song. Did you have to do any butthole research for that song? No. She didn't let me rock and roll in her butthole though. I was like, bitch, I've seen the inside of your ass. And I don't get it. Alright, it's cool. Did she try to make the moves on her and stuff? No. The thing about porn people is they work. That's their job. You know what I mean? They don't just do it like, oh, let's fuck because you fuck all the time. Oh, okay. No, you're paying me some fucking money. You know what I mean? So I got to go with her. I got to go to this ex-biz expo for like a I don't know, it was at the Hard Rock Cafe. She paid for me to go out there and we played. She, yeah, she was just, you know, I was hanging out with all these porn people. And they were saying like the most vilest like, oh yeah, one time I was doing this like, you know, five guy mouth rape and da da da da. And then I got a fucking comment like, oh my god. Oh, and this one time I was getting like double penetrated in my ass and blah blah blah blah. And they were just like saying the dirtiest, filthiest shit and you're just at the bar, chilling. Everybody's talking about, oh yeah, one time. Then I had to take my kids to soccer. It was terrible. Exactly. So yeah, it was really fun. I actually got nominated for an AVN award, which is the porn awards in 2009. So I got to go out as a nominee to the porn awards. They even, you know, invented a category to put us in. Of course we lost because that year Pirates 2 had come out and it was like the biggest, most expensive porn movie ever, ever made. And that won everything. You know that one, Pirates 2? Yeah, Pirates. Well, the first one was like Pirates of the Caribbean, but it was, you know, the second one. But yeah, I got to go to AVN and party with the porn stars and do a lot of freaky deaky shit. It was great. Did you hook up with any porn stars? Oh yeah. Really? How many? Oh, just one. Were you worried about getting like any diseases or anything or did, or is it the fact that they get tested regularly kind of put your mind at ease? Alcohol. Really? That explains it. That explains it. Because, you know, I heard like they do tests for like HIV. All the time. Chlamydia, syphilis, all the time, but they don't test for herpes anymore. Because they say that 80% of the porn stars have herpes. Just get the chance you got to take. God, I feel like such a filthy bastard saying that. Guitarists have calluses, you know? Yeah. Part of the job. Yeah, I got some dick calluses. Been wearing jeans for some years, no underwear. You know, you get a little callus on. Got a couple dick warts. They even have dildos with like dick warts on it, you know what I mean? Chicks like dick wart bumps. Right? You ever see those dildos with like the fucking dick wart bumps? Oh yeah. My ex-girlfriend who introduced me to this pornstress, she has got an incredible collection of dildos. Really? And most incredible collection I've ever seen. She likes to use them on her friends. So yeah, man. So you get involved in like all this really cool stuff, man. Is it the power of positive thinking? What is it? That's what I was attributed to, man. I mean, I'm usually a pretty positive person, you know? I don't really try to let things get me down too much, but I mean, they do, you know? But I'm always... I don't know. My grandmother always told me to just manifest things, you know? Yeah. Kind of make things in your mind happen. And I also call it, you know, like sometimes it'd be like as a nerdy kid, I'm using the force, you know? It's kind of... Yeah. It's a similar thing. You kind of just like make things happen. Yeah. Because everything begins on the plane of thought. Yeah. And that's how things materialize. You think about something and then you start tending to just be around... Yes. You know, what you want to do and just by thinking about it. But I'm still not a big... You know, I'm still not a big star making lots of money. I'm still a local hero struggling to pay my rent. Yeah, but you're doing some really cool shit. But I get to do a lot of really cool shit. I mean, I get to go all over the place and I have... And make some money at doing something cool. Yeah. I mean, and it's just the art. My art is my life, you know? Right. And my music and all the stuff that I do, you know? But knowing a lot of people helps. And having been born here in L.A. and been playing music for 21 years already also helps. Right. You know? I mean, I've played with so many people in this town. I've played with my friend Holland Greco. I played with Dorian Wood. I played with Josie Cotton. I did a tour with her. She wrote the song, Johnny, Are You Queer? Oh, really? From the 80s, yes. Oh, that's cool. I went to Montreal and played on her last album on Josie Cotton's last album, which I don't remember the name of. And then, I played with the fabulous Miss Wendy. She plays around town. Oh, yeah. That's right. Isn't she the girlfriend of the guy from Devo? Is that true? I'm not sure if that's still going on, but yeah. I played some on her record. He used her up and spit her out, huh? I don't know. I haven't talked to her in a while. Like a filthy piece of bubble gum. She is. Did you ever go out with that chick? No. She was dating what's Gerald at the time. You ever date anybody famous? No. Okay. Let's see. Next question. Not that I haven't tried. You ever date anybody famous for something that's like the best at something? No. No. Alright. Well. Well, that sucked. Well, hey, man. You actually set up your bass drum and tuned up your guitar and you're going to play some songs for us right now, right? What are we going to hear? Let's see. I'm going to do Waited So Long. That's a Master Slave tune which I've since then flipped to a solo act. I do a solo act with the bass drum on the floor. I stomp the bass drum and I play guitar and sing. And I pull off as many songs as I possibly can like that because it was such a stripped down configuration. You kind of have to figure out how it's going to work. This is one of the songs that I've really taken straight from a drummer and guitar set up to one drum and voice and guitar set up. Cool, man. I'm anxious to hear it, man. Let's hear it. You ready? Right now? Right now? Yeah. Dan will give you a hand. Just make sure that the thing is turned on. I don't know. I guess we're going to do it right now on the More Music Radio Pod. Princess Frank. Alright, man. Alright. So, the setup is you got a kick drum and a guitar and you're going to play both of them, right? Both of them. Alright. Because I'm a drummer and I got this dexterity thing. Cool. Alright. Dexterous. Let's see here. In the meantime, here for a second. Do you want to hear something real quick? Remember that 7-Eleven in Eagle Rock? Yes. Remember that 7-Eleven in Eagle Rock? Yeah. On Colorado Boulevard, we used to call 7-Eleven. Hello? Hello? Hey, Mr. Manager. Huh? Hey, Mr. Manager, please. My manager ain't not here. Fuck you.

Yeah. Yeah. You know, I think we're underselling it a bit. I'm a huge fan of, not just the fact that he's, like, one of my best friends, but Frank is honestly one of the best drummers, like, in the city. Oh, thanks, Dan. And if you're one of the best in the city, you're kind of like one of the best in the world. Oh, thanks, Dan. No, no, it's for real, brother. I'm telling you. Oh. So if you get a chance to see Frank play some drums, it's quite a thing to watch. See, Dan's known me way before Princess Frank, so he doesn't ever call me Princess Frank. You told me not to even mention one of the names. Oh, yeah, that's cool. That's my high school name. So I'm not going to say it. Why did people call you that? I don't know. It came from a friend of mine. And why does it bother you so much where you send me a text and say, hey, let's not bring up this quote-unquote nickname that he's called me. It doesn't bother me. It's just that it's so silly. I like it. I think it's cute. Exactly. It is cute. But there's – I humiliate – Can I say it, please? I humiliate myself on such a regular basis, and I don't want to take it any further. But the thing is, is like when I'm like, yeah, you know, Princess Frank, this guy, they're like, who? I'm like, yeah, Kill Sonic. You know, they're like in a blue – and they're like – and I'm like, that dude. No, Frukey. I'm like, Frukey. They're like, oh, yeah, okay, Frukey. My career's ruined. You don't like that. I'll never be taken seriously as Princess Frank. That's what I thought your name was in high school pretty much. Yeah, right. That's what everybody called me. That name came from an accident. A friend of mine had just come from the Philippines, and he was trying to speak English, and he said, Frukey. And he was like, oh, that's so funny. Of course, when you're a little kid, you know, by lunchtime, everybody was calling me that. And I was like, all right, dude, fine. I'll be Frukey, whatever. I know what you mean, man, because my uncle and his – whenever I'd be like hanging around with my uncle and his friends and shit, and they'd be like, hey – he'd be like, hey, check out Garp right there. Remember when World According to Garp came out? World According to Garp. I was like, oh, my God. Like I didn't even know what he was talking about, and then I saw the movie on cable. When they had the box where you had to push the buttons, it's all clunk. Oh, man, that's old school. And like, yeah. And I saw that movie, and I'm like, oh, my God. Like I'm fucking like disgusting, so disgusting looking that people are comparing me to like gross-looking people, I think. In my opinion – I think you look more like John Belushi. Exactly. I hate that, too. I hate that, too. Hey, at least you don't look like Jim Belushi, though, okay? So it's cool. I got one of those looks, and I was telling my girlfriend, and I was like thanking her for like loving me like she does because – So glad you love me. Am I? In my opinion, like I have one of those looks that like as soon as people look at me, they're like, ugh, fuck this motherfucker. And I just have one of those looks. And because I look at some people, and I have the same reaction as some different people and just like, ugh, fuck you. Get the fuck away from me. I don't like your face. Meanwhile, I know I have the same reaction. So like when meeting people, I already have like a couple points against me and stuff. And I'm fat. You're fat? You know what I mean? Oh, my God. That's all muscle. People can't see that. There's radio. Yeah. You can hear it, too. My jaw. My jowls are kind of like constricting my throat and I'm all – You can hear fat people like their cheeks are fat. You can hear their throat is fat. I just thought you had a flappy mic. Flappy. Flappy. Well, yeah, man. I got two strikes against me already, man. I was watching this fucking one thing about this that's called fucking Freaky Eaters or something like that on fucking – my girlfriend likes to watch all these fucking shows on Your girlfriend sounds pretty kinky. Freaky Eaters. Freaky Eaters. Yeah, Freaky Eaters. I think Frank did the soundtrack. I like to that. There was this lady that was addicted to – and they have these food addictions. She was addicted to only eating for her whole life for like 30 years, only eating cheesy potatoes. And she's all, oh, I love cheesy potatoes and stuff. And she was a giant woman. And I'm a fat person and I'm like fucking, ugh, shut the fuck up. You're making us look bad. Fat bitches fucking make us. You're annoying the fuck out of me. You're making us look bad. And then like, yeah, it's annoying, too, because like when other fat people are like fucking like with their – like, I don't know. I don't know. They're like, oh, cheesy potatoes. Nummy, nummy, nummy. And I'm like, ugh, God, shut the fuck up. God damn it. Keep it to yourself. Maybe she just had a proper portion of cheesy potatoes and be okay. Was she eating a lot of cheesy potatoes? She was eating every fucking meal, which was like five or six meals. Different kinds of cheesy potatoes, too. Is it like one cheesy potato? Yeah, like fried potatoes, like chips. She would get chips and put Velveeta on it and stuff and then just like shred the cheese. And then she would just buy the cheese that's already shredded. Uh-huh. You know? That's even worse. She's fucking just like, I don't even want to shred the cheese. I just want to sprinkle it. I'm going to sprinkle it on and I'm going to put it in the microwave and I'm going to eat it. That's like the cheese you buy at 99 Cent Store. That doesn't say cheese anywhere on it. I'm like a self-hating fattest, you know? But yeah. I don't know how we went down that road. We're just being teenagers, man. We're all in the room together. That road was greased. Yeah. It was easy to slide down it. Hey, man. Patrick just got here. Hi, Patrick. Hi. So do you have another song that you want to pump out? I don't know. Do I? Yeah. Do you got one?

Yeah, when you get here late, the parking attendant leaves and you can park free in the parking lot. I think he's trying to say to turn it on. Turn the thing on. There you go. All right. All right, we're going to hear one more song from Princess Frank on the More Music Radio Pod. All right? Yeah. Yeah.

And I'm there every Sunday afternoon. I always have a different guest artist come in the middle to play. I do the first set by myself, a guest set in the middle, and then I do a last set by myself. And I'm out of there by 5.30, but it's a great gig. You know, like anybody. It's free. Come on down. Hang with your old boy, Princess Frank. Smoke the stickiest of the icky. What were you going to say, Dan? Oh, no, don't worry about my stuff. Don't worry about it. Whatever. Thank you. I just got out my little red book the minute that you said goodbye. I went back through my little red book. I wasn't going to say goodbye. Then I went from A to Z. I took out every pretty girl in town that danced with me. And as I held them, all I did was talk about you. And hear your name and watch Dr. Cry. There's just no getting over you. Oh, no. There ain't no girl in my little red book who could ever replace your charms. Woo! And each girl in my little red book knows you're the one I'm thinking of. Oh, won't you please?

Oh, that guy. That's that one white dude, no? That's that one. Oh, okay. I know that dude. Well, cool, man. Hey, you know what? Princess Frank, thank you very much for coming to the More Music Radio Pod. Oh, my God. Thanks for having me. It was a lot of fun, man. I feel like we got to have you back so we could learn some more. Yeah, you know. About what's going on. I'm in your hood. Yep, yep, yep. We could reminisce, you know. We know you. Yeah. For like a long time already, too. For like, you know, like 20 years and shit. Oh, my God. Maybe that's what made it so easy, too. 20 years. That's a long fucking time. We should just stop it right there. We'll just say it's, we'll always just say it's 20 years. Yeah. If it's more than that, it's going to be like, man, you fuckers are old. We all met when we were two, so, you know. 22 already, man. Oh, man. It's been a long, hard road, man. Woo, I'm getting old. Damn. Well, cool, man. Hey, so where can people find out about what you're doing? Like, where can people find Princess Frank and Kill Sonic? You know, a Facebook account. I have a fan page because I actually don't spend enough time on the computer to keep up with Facebook land. But you can, you know, you can contact me through there. Okay. Yeah. That's Facebook. Facebook. It's actually, I have a particular spelling to my name because I'm a princess like that. And Facebook won't let me spell it that way. It's all cat. It's all. It's lowercase letters except for the capital F in the middle. And it's all one word. So. Princess Frank. Yeah, it's all one word. And I, in order to get it how I want it on Facebook, I have to put an underscore. So you'd have to go underscore Princess Frank. I know that could be confusing, but you can contact me through there. My wonderful, my wonderful girlfriend, Taryn, runs it for me. Google knows everything. And I'm sure if you put Princess Frank as one word, you'll find out what you're doing. Yeah. You can find me through there. Also, KillSonic.org. It's got. Oh, yeah. That's right. Some of the new KillSonic. We did four new tunes. We recorded about three months ago. They're on there. You can listen to or buy. I also. Are you guys, is KillSonic playing anytime soon? No. No? But I did put a new project together called Princess Frank and the Kill Sisters. It's all the accordion girls from KillSonic and the drummer girls from KillSonic. Right. So it's four or five accordion girls, me singing, conducting, playing the drum, sometimes the guitar, and three female drummers from KillSonic as well. Oh, cool. So it's Princess Frank and the Kill Sisters. And we're going to be playing at Fado Do for the Accordion Babes event on January 21st. It's a Saturday. Oh, cool, man. That's coming up. It's all accordion girls. And, you know, it's like it's one of those shows that's like has, you know, 15 bands and everybody gets like, you know, 10 minutes. So Fado Do. Is that like on Adams? Yes. Isn't that like an extinct club? I keep hearing that, but it keeps coming back. Fado Do? Yeah, I never know. It keeps coming back. I drive by it sometimes. Mikey. There you go. You're on. Hello. Yeah, you're on. Hi. Hi. Did you like that joke, Patrick? What is it? He said Fado Do and I said, isn't that like an extinct nightclub? What? It went way of the dodo. All right. Cool, man. Well, I want to check that out. You know, I think we should have KillSonic come on the More Music Radio pod. Oh, man. We wouldn't fit in here. Oh, we can make it work. I'm saying we got a lot. We rehearse in a place. We rehearse a lot this big, so. We also have the lobby there, which is also, which is currently an art project right now. Right. What I love about my band is like, there's just so many of us. People are like, oh, yeah, come and play. It's like, shh, we don't even fit on the stage, dude. Yeah. Like, we played at the Troubadour and we played on the stage and took everybody right out the fucking door onto Santa Monica Boulevard, played in the middle of the street right there. That's cool. Stopped cars. People from the club next door came out. People from Dantanas came out. People were honking, but people were loving it, man. Nobody was mad. Everybody was just like, you know, jumping on the street. We took everybody. We took everybody. We took everybody from in the club right out into the street. Wow. And just didn't get fined. Just don't do it at a farmer's market. Yeah. Yeah. White people will get pissed off at you and they'll fucking try to take your bullhorn and try to fight you and call the cops on you. Otherwise, it's basically like the same experience where everybody just likes it, you know? It's almost scared, like, oh, I'm going to go play. That's, go play in the street. It's scary, but everybody likes it. Usually, yeah. People love that. Usually people like will, usually people will like the, as far as like, I mean, it sounds like you guys get like a really good reception with Kill Sonic. Yeah. Well, I mean, half the band is females. I mean, who doesn't like that? You know? We got a bunch of girls. Well, see, like, I have tits. So, like, it didn't even help. So, anyway, so, like, yeah, some people get, like, kind of bent the wrong way and stuff, you know, with us. I don't know. Like I said, you know, we have, we don't look right. There's something, like, people, annoying about us, maybe. There's something wrong with you. There's something serious wrong with you. Those fucking Mormons are making too much noise over there. That one's weird. That one's fat. That one's weird, too. And the other one's weird, too. That one's weird, too. That one's a polygamist. Actually, I just heard a story. Well, I heard a news story today about how Mormons are getting a bad rap and how they're trying to, like, fix their public image. It's like. Well, yeah. They're like, we're not accepted as a mainstream. They're mad because they're not being accepted as a mainstream religion. Right. Well, you're not. The next president's going to be Mormon. You're not a mainstream religion. Just somebody needs to shut the fuck up. Yeah. Mormons, just slow your roll. Yeah, they're like, we're not being taken seriously. You know, we're the religion that believes that fucking. Yeah, that's what they all say. Yeah. Believes that we. Do they believe? Well, you don't even know. They read a box. There's like a little crystal or something or like some kind of stone in a box. Isn't that Scientology? And stuff. No, no. Like, this guy just figured out, like, hey, I'll just start another offshoot of the Christian religion and stuff. It's kind of like an updated version of. It's more in depth. It's like if Jesus came back around the time of the. They explained the metaphysical. It's a molten glass planet. Everybody has their own planet. You know, same kind of thing. Same kind of fucking bullshit as any other fucking religion. But it's okay. You Mormons are mainstream. Yeah. Our religion is music. Yeah, we're not. We're just. Take that. We have nothing to do with that thing. We do not. It's just, you know, the Beatles. Were they really Beatles? And even then spelled like that. Yeah. They weren't real insects. You know, they were real insects. That would have been incredible, though. Yeah. The monks were really monks. John Lennon got shot by a can of Raid. I thought it was cool that they called themselves. They called themselves the Beatles because they all like were in the band and they had Beatles haircuts. Yeah. They look like Beatles. That was like a perfect name. That's perfect. That's so crazy. Yeah. They got Beatle haircuts already. You might as well call them Beatles. Call them the Beatles. Hey, so anyway, man, thanks, Princess Frank, for coming to the More Music Radio pod. Oh, hell yes, Vince. Thank you. Please come back. And I'm sure you'll be back. Oh, yeah. And this is the time of the show where Dan reads off what's going on this weekend. All right. Go for it, Dan. So, yeah. A couple of weeks ago, Frank was playing over the Thirsty Crow, which he'll be doing on this Sunday as well as every Sunday until they tell him to get the fuck out. Right. Actually, this Sunday, they're closed for a private party. I just got a text today. Well, hey. Look at that. Look at that. I look like an asshole. I guess I should have told you. So, yes. But anyway. But every other Sunday from then on until the end of the night. You look like an asshole, but I like you, Dan. Hey. As long as I don't smell like one, I don't care. Your wife keeps you clean. But, yeah. Falsetto T played with Princess Frank a couple of weeks ago. Oh, yes. They're playing tomorrow, aren't they? They're fucking awesome, man. Since you people listening weren't there. That's a really intimidating band. Yeah. Because they're like so fucking good. We're just like, it makes your shit that you're doing look like fucking bullshit. Well, you know. Right. There's some serious. Alex might actually be Arian of the Master Race. So, that might be part of the reason that he's so good. It's good to see bands like that because it kind of keeps us on our game. They're very good. We got to keep up. He may or may not be Arian, by the way. He's definitely awesome. But anyway. Nobody's perfect. Catch his band, Falsetto Teeth, at the Homeroom in Echo Park. Yeah. Where is that place? I want to say. It's on Beverly Boulevard. Yeah. It's on the 3300 block of Beverly. I actually went there. That says nothing to me. What's the landmark? Like, what's the street? I actually went to Homeroom. It's actually a cool little spot. Beverly Boulevard and 3300. I'm going to say. Something like that. It's like Vermont. Like I said. It's like past Vermont. Ask your big brother. Google. MapQuest. Yeah. Google why your ass is sore and it'll tell you. And you can also ask where Falsetto Teeth is playing and it'll also tell you. I love that. But moving on. Sassafras was also a guest of ours on the More Music Radio. Oh, yeah. You know what? They asked us to play the Bull Bar. They're going to be there on Saturday. Sassafras is going to be there at the Bull Bar on Saturday. And I don't know. We can't make it because people are doing stuff. And we're working on some new stuff right now. So, hey, everybody leave us alone for a second. Yeah. We'll be back. I have a vigorous workout regimen. Very soon. All Saturday. I don't know if Frank remembers the name Chris Cano, but he's. Wow, I do. He's still playing. He's in a band called Goldsboro. Oh, nice. Which you can catch at the Dragonfly on Sunday. Nice. With the spasmatics, which we often get mistaken for. Oh, my God. Because we look like assholes. No, let's not get into that. They get paid for doing 80s covers. Patrick hates that comparison. Yes, yes. Yeah, I have no idea. It's no comparison, really. I know. It's just annoying. Oh, my God. Is Arlo here? Why are you guys playing this song? So, you know this song, right? Yeah, it's St. Thomas. This song is. We play it on Sunday. We play it on Sunday. We play it on the More Music Radio pod as an homage to Mr. Teasebolt and mainly Arlo. And Arlo, yeah. He loved this song. This is a song that means it's time to break things down. Dan's already almost at the end of his list. We're drinking the last few beers. You know, we got to kill the whole 18 pack before we leave. No problem. All right. Have you finished the list yet? Not exactly, but there's really nothing to do Monday except, I don't know. Jerk off. Ask why you have a job. Man, Vince. On Tuesday, Des told me to tell you to go to the Redwood. Bar in.
