This is over from Whiskey Sunday, and you're listening to Sound Scene Revolution.
♪ music ♪
This week we have a special one-timey local interview, which was originally the concept was like local and underground music, and then we got all famous, and anyhow you'll see it in the behind the music. But we're taking it back to local bands. Last week we had The Forgotten, and this week we are doing San Jose local band Whiskey Sunday, because we can. These guys are from the area. They've been compared to bands like Leatherface, Hot Water Music, a bunch of others. I don't really feel like going through it at the time because I'm lazy. But if you live in the area, you should get a chance to check them out. They just recently got a play the fest in Florida, so they had a big, good time doing that, which we talk all about in the interview.
Most of the interview, we only got like two of the members because Dover is off like being drunk. Dover's the lead singer. And he's off being drunk and listening to the guitar players fuck around. But it's a good time, and I highly recommend you check it out. And if you stay tuned, at the end of the interview, we have corresponded with Eric from Whiskey Sunday. And he says he'll hook you guys up with some free stuff, some vinyl, some porn, I don't know. Whatever Whiskey Sunday feels like giving away. But anyhow, we're going to play the first track before we jump into the interview. And it is called Wall Chaser, or Wall Chasing. It's one of those two. But it's pretty sweet. You should check it out. And be sure to listen to the end of the interview, the last eight minutes, to figure out how to enter to win.
All right.

Hello. Hi. All right. If you guys want to go around and introduce yourselves and what you do in the band and all that, so we can just kind of tell the difference for the audio folks at home. Where do you want to start from? I'll start here. I'm Rob. I play guitar. I'm Eric. I play the drums. I'm Rusty. I play bass. I'm Mike. I'm Dover. What do you do, Dove? Sing. Mike plays guitar. All right. I do many things. What else do you do? Drink? Drink and sing. Fight and fuck. Drink. He drinks. Right, Tom. Sounds like a pretty good hobby there. I guess the easiest place to start is somebody want to give a brief history of the band, how you guys got started and all that. Take it, Rob. Rob, you got it, buddy. Okay, I guess I'll try this.
Yeah, we started in like 2000. There you go. Dover, he writes a million songs and we needed a band and I'm like the band slut of San Jose and we're friends and we're friends and so I started playing bass and we got some other friends to play the rest of the instruments and we've gone through like probably like 50 musicians in the last five years and we're still going. That's the gist of it, I think. Fair enough. Fair enough. We recorded quite a few CDs, well two CDs and a bunch of seven inches, split seven inches and stuff and went to Japan and Europe and who knows what next. Fair enough. Eric had a dream we were going to Iraq. No, that was me. You had a dream you guys were going to Iraq? Because I like to take them to crazy places like Eastern Europe.
I had a dream that Rob took us to Iraq. Like he was like, no, everybody get on the plane, it's going to be awesome. It's weird, I've actually talked to two different musicians recently that actually, one of the guys went to Iraq to play like for the troops and the other guy is like going to Iraq to play for the troops. Oh wow. We're not talking about playing for the troops. No, I know, it's just weird, but what else are you going to, how is he going to get into Iraq? I'm sure there's some squats there we could play. I don't imagine they have a lot of all-ages clubs going to Iraq at the moment. Maybe, maybe we can hit the 21 and over scene, I'm not sure. There you go, the strip joints that they have in Iraq.
I think it's, yeah, but that's kind of an interesting experience, I'm sure. Yeah, probably. So you guys have mentioned you've toured like Europe and Japan and all that, right? Yeah, well we, I guess, I joined the band about two years, two and a half years ago, and we, suddenly they were in the middle of recording a record. They needed a drummer, so I jumped in and we finished the record, and luckily the record was coming out with a cool dude. In the East Bay, Steve-O, one, two, three, four, go records, and Rob here has his own record label called Vine Hell, and he does a lot of stuff with international labels, and I guess he had been talking back and forth with this guy in Japan, Yoichi. Yoichi, who also has a label and puts on tours in Japan, brings bands over from Europe and the U.S., so I guess Yoichi was claiming that he wasn't going to do any more tours, but Rob somehow talked him into doing one more.
So he booked us a tour in Japan, and we, the band had been rehearsed, we had a new record out, and we got a new bass player, and shit was tight. Nice. It was awesome. So we got, we went to Japan and played about, what, ten shows in 13 days, something like that. Wow. We had like a day off in Kyoto, beautiful. That's awesome. How was it compared to here, though? Like the crowd? It was crazy. I mean, they were paying $20, $25 to get into our show. Seriously? Like some American band they've never heard of. Wow. Honestly, I mean, we're, you know, no one would pay that much for anything from us around here, you know? Yeah. But like the, we were playing in mostly like rock clubs that were like high, you know, amazing sound systems.
The loudest you'd ever hear. Loudest sound systems. It was awesome. But like places were full every night. Like people rode trains from cities to come see these bands. Wow. And we toured with a bunch of cool bands. We made a lot of good friends like iXQs and a band called Blotto that's actually been over to the States a couple of times.
Yoichi has his label, Snuffy Smile. And he put out a split 7-inch with us with one of his bands, iXQs. So yeah, it worked out really well. We went over there, played a bunch of shows, came back and started, you know, started over. Well, every tour you, you, you learn about like one fuckin' great band and the Japan tour was Morgsside Cinema. Yeah. Every tour you get just this one band that you just, you fall in love with. And that's how we ended up doing all these split 7-inch, we think we have like 5 now. So we, uh, we came, we were talking about it earlier. Yeah, and then you go, like, I got the record and then you actually do it because you kind of really like it. No, we come, yeah, we came home from, from Japan going like, these, there's a band called Morgsside Cinema we played with from Osaka, Japan that we immediately, like, we walked in during the sound check.
We're actually coming to the U.S. next year. Yeah, we're going to do an amazing band, like, some of the best, one of the best things I've ever seen, just sound check was enough, like, we all just, like, gonna stop at our tracks. Awesome. And, uh, like, they were just amazing, so we said, and then we partied, you know, we drank all night with them, and, you know, shook hands and kissed. Oh, yeah, we got a picture of Dober kissing the singer. We did a split, we actually did a split seven. Was the singer a man, or what? He's a man. He's a man. Oh, and he had the yuckiest mouth. Oh, he's got some, he's got some teeth. He's a bad man. Yucky like white. Hiroshi is his name. Anyway, but we did a split seven inch with them, and, uh, they're, like, fantastic band.
I would love to play with them every night here in the States and let everybody else see them, but, like, I don't. Probably, probably the best band we've ever played with. It's amazing. Like, and then, uh, we got, luckily enough, like, we, they decided to do a split with us. We have them, we have seven inches, they came out about two months ago. You can get them through Vine Hell, Rob's label. Right, right, and the CD2, they, uh. And there's a CD2 that they did in Japan. Actually, on the seven inch is their best song. I think we all agree their best song is on the seven inch. Yeah, we actually did a cover of each other's song as well. Oh, wow, right on. So we did one of their songs, and they did one of our songs.
No, I, they cheated, though, because, uh, they did cheat. They did a song where we just say one word, so, like, they don't speak any English. They didn't have to learn anything. Well, we, well, we were lucky because the song that they, their song was in English. Well, yeah, we did it because they, we did the song that they did in English. So they sing, they sing songs both in Japanese and English, and we picked an English one. Ah, so. But they, they picked one of our songs that only has one word. I don't understand how a band can, uh, can, can, can sing in English when they don't, uh, they do not speak it or understand it at all. Oh, it's awesome. And I don't know how they do it. You should check the lyrics and, and, and wonder what the heck they're talking about.
Do the lyrics make sense or the lyrics just, like, oh, the lyrics are insane. They're just words picked out of the dictionary. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We come to the movie. His name is John, uh, that's, that's, that's. I don't know, I don't know what they're saying. But anyway, yeah, we went to Japan, we met some friends there, uh, Europe was cool. We had three weeks out there, uh, playing with a bunch of bands, we had a great tour guide, uh, Jan, he has Yo-Yo Records out in Germany, he brings a lot of bands out and takes them around Europe, uh, from all over. He's got a label as well. But, um, so we came back from, uh, Europe. We, uh, changed two members, and we were fortunate enough to get, uh, some friends of mine, Rusty and Mike.
And we're only on the second question? How many, let's, how many questions do you have? Are you on the second question? I know, we got, yeah. We got seven, but they overlap. We roll with it as it goes. You do editing, right? Oh, yeah. I'm very dynamic. Thank you. As long as you didn't say, oh, I got 20 questions, okay, we better move on. We got 47 questions, it's gonna be eight days long, so, we got time. We got, we got power outlets and you can bear, so. Well, we got, uh, yeah, we got home from Europe and we had to regroup and it took a couple of weeks just to get over jet lag and shit and we made some calls and luckily, uh, these guys agreed to come and start jamming with us and they learned some songs because we had some shows.
Luckily, uh, our friends downtown at the Blank Club liked Whiskey Sunday and asked us to play a show, but we were short a couple of members. So, I asked, uh, my buddies to come in and see if they can help us out and play a show. It was no use for a name. Like, you know, how are you gonna pass up that opportunity? It's kind of hard to be like, no, no. Yeah, so, uh, so I, I kind of pitched it to them like, uh, hey, uh, we got the show coming up. You guys want to sit in, learn some songs. We're opening. It'll be cool. It'll be a lot of fun for everybody and now they're still sticking around and we're. They're still here, man. Can't get rid of them. We played a couple of other shows. We went to Florida and got to play at the Fest.
It was amazing and, uh, and now we're back home writing and we're getting ready to record a new record. Cool. I wanted to ask, uh, about the Fest because I just found out probably, I think when you first started emailing me that you guys were playing on that. How did you guys get hooked up with the Fest? Like, who did you talk to? Did they approach you or? Rob started bugging them last year. Like, I guess our music kind of puts us in that whole lump of, uh, like the whole genre. I don't even know how. No, well, it's because. You just showed up. Yeah, I'm there. I, I heard about the Fest a couple of years ago and like the Snuffy Smile bands are playing at the Fest last year and, uh, I'm like, man, we need to play this because like all these bands, you know, we work with really well, like our sound is similar and I've been bugging them for about, uh, you know, a couple of years and then this, uh, past year they let us play, so.
That's cool, man. It's cool. They got invited. That's awesome. All right. Um, talking more about what you guys have done recently. You were on the, uh, We Will Inherit the Earth tribute, right? For the replacement? Yes. That was, uh, that was, uh, that was kind of a strange thing. Uh, we had started working, we put our record with, uh, Steve-O, one, two, three, four, go records. Uh, and, uh, we had done some stuff with them and, uh, you know, we're not that active. Well, we hadn't been at that point like that active of a band, you know, around in the Bay Area, especially like, I had just started playing with the band and they finished the record, the record came out and then we actually switched bass players at that point.
So then we started playing some shows again, but we didn't, and then we started doing a little bit of touring and then we ended up going out of the country. So we weren't like playing around here a whole lot, um, but we had recorded this song because Steve-O, uh, was putting out this comp. Because we had to be on the comp or else he would kill us. Yeah, like this replacement's comp. So we recorded this song kind of, I don't want to say half-assed, but like, you know, we learned it really fast and like, we recorded it and like, that was it. And we sent it to Steve-O and then like, this comp kind of just never came out. And then now, like it came out, well, like two months ago. Yeah. And fuck, everybody's on it.
Yeah. Like, all the best bands ever. The Draft. The Draft. My favorite, I've been listening to it over and over again, is the Against Me track. Yeah. It's amazing. Yeah. Drunken Boat's on there. Just everybody. Yeah. It's like a pleasure to be involved in such a comp. And if you look closely on the back cover of the comp, there's a white stripe that goes right through the center and Whiskey Sunday is completely highlighted perfectly. It's like track, I don't know, I think it's track 12 or something. Nice. But like, we somehow got like the lucky spot of being like right in the highlight area of the artwork. Cool. Props to Steve-O, man. He did a good job on that. Yeah, Steve-O's a really cool guy. He works really hard.
We were kind of tripping him out, like, is that thing ever going to happen? Yeah. And then it happened and Rob was saying earlier, he sold out. Like, he sold out in two weeks. He sold, you know, pressed a few thousand copies and it was gone in two weeks. So it's obviously going back into... If you like replacements, I guess it's cool. But I've never got into them. Just happened to be on the tribute. No, no, no. Our singer Dover is one of his favorite bands to replace me. She loves Paul Westerberg. Yeah. Very good. He picked... Paul Westerberg. What do you think? I have his mic on. I got A+. A+. So Dover's a big Paul Westerberg fan and he was really stoked to be able to do a replacement track. Unfortunately... He picked the song.
I picked a stupid song. Aww. Apparently, it's a popular song. Yeah. Isn't it? But it could be worse. They're all good songs. It's got bells and whistles, but we left those out. Yeah. There's so many good bands on that thing. Like, Blotto's on that. Like, a lot of our Friends bands, and This Is My Fist is on there, like, tons of bands. Like, you know, Friends bands or Friends of Friends. It's just a really good... Have you heard it? You like replacements? I know some of the replacement stuff, I've not heard the cover. It's a pretty good little problem. Yeah? It's a great... I've heard a lot about it. I'm just... I don't know. It's great. It's getting a lot of press, and Steve-O did a good job. I'm really happy. He got Christy Road to do the art, you know?
Oh, wow. That's, you know, the whole thing is really cool. It's, like, the whole community that's involved with it. It is, yeah. I mean, it's got to be... I mean, especially because you kind of recorded a while ago, it's got to be kind of cool to see everyone who ended up turning it up for the whole thing and being a part of all that. Well, strange, because we thought it kind of disappeared. We were wondering, like, if it was ever going to happen. Yeah. And then it finally happened, and it was, like, you know, tenfold what we thought it was going to be. Well, cops are a pain in the butt to put out, I'll tell you. Oh, I'm sure. He sold it out in a month. Yeah. No, no, seriously. By the time we were at the Gainesville thing, for the month...
Did we already go over this? Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. You repeat. This is a... This is our singer. He writes songs, and, you know, he sings. Mike is a horrible influence on me. That whole side's never going to remember the interview. They're just going to know the Metallica song real well. Yeah, we drink a lot. These guys are working on Metallica right now. It's all right. It's fine. Trust me. We can edit that part out. No, no, we're keeping that. No, no. That's it. Edit the exclusive track. Edit, just edit my voice. Check it out. We can do that with those computers. We'll put an effect on your voice, too. We put echoing. We put a song on a replacements column. We did? He's excited, man. Oh, that's awesome. What song is that one?
All right, we're going to take a quick break there from the middle of the interview. Get back into a little bit of Whiskey Sunday's music, and then we're going to hop back in to more of the interview. You guys will want to check it out, because at the end, we're going to have a little contest where you guys can win free shit given to you by Whiskey Sunday, and you should do it, because if nothing else, it's free stuff. Yeah, the band's good. But even if the band sucked, dude, a free CD is better than anything else, and then you can re-gift it to somebody in a white elephant exchange, in exchange for some fucking oven mitts, which, dude, everyone needs oven mitts, so just look at it like that. Anyhow, second half of the interview, we're going to talk with the band about all sorts of different stuff, like some albums, some trouble with their album artwork, some dealings with other record labels and shit like that.
So it's a good time, and at the very least, you know, you'll get to hear more music, which we're going to bring you now, and it's called Thanks for the Violence. It's by Whiskey Sunday, of course, and the lyrics are good, and the music you should expect nothing less, as it was done by Dover, who is, after meeting him, I would say on par with possibly John Steinbeck as the greatest wordsmith of our time, or any time prior to this, it's obvious he reads a lot of Maya Angelou, perhaps, and the man is a genius. I highly suggest, if you see him in a show, you engage him in metaphysical conversation about the meaning of life and shit. It'll be a good time. Just don't try and email him, because apparently he doesn't own a fucking computer.
He has an Etch-A-Sketch hooked up to a rotary phone. It's kind of fun. Alright, so this is called Thanks for the Violence. It's by Whiskey Sunday, and then we're going to get back into the interview.
♪ song played ♪
There's no Animals Conf coming out. The herbs did an awesome version. We did Misunderstood. I want to play that. You weren't in the band at that time, I see. No, no, that's on the 7-inch that just came out. We could do that as well. That's cool. Rusty and Mike are the new guys in the band. It's like, it's a typical man. At the same time when we recorded the second record, Maldicito, we also recorded, no, actually, no, no, we recorded that at Joe's, didn't we? No, we recorded it all at the Maldicito session, but we had some extra tracks for a 7-inch companion to the full length. Yeah, so we did an Animals song. We did Misunderstood, which just came out. Steve-O put it out on 1, 2, 3, 4, go. It's a 7-inch with Misunderstood.
Actually, it's a split release, dude. Split release, I'm sorry. On my level and Steve-O, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, on mine, hell. But anyway, it's got that song. It's a cover of the Animals, and then we also did a song, and there's a remix that we did. Yeah, basically we have three unreleased tracks on there, plus the Animals cover. It's a pretty cool little 7-inch. But Annie from This Is My Fist is on one of these. Oh. Yeah, yeah. Friends of the band. Yeah, we had to remix one song that was from the album, Laughing Academies, because they left out my solo, because that was the one day I didn't show up to the mix. So it was cool, because we got to get it on the 7-inch here with the remix. That's cool, because a lot of the reviews I read actually said Laughing Academy was one of the good...
Well, everybody loves Annie from This Is My Fist, so... How could you not love Annie? Well, you know, it's true, I love her, but everybody loves Annie. But now you've got your solo record. Whenever sells a record, I guess. You should buy a record, because Annie's on it. And she's awesome. Somebody will do it, I'm sure. I wanted to ask, your first album, the self-titled, I had read that you guys had come to, with the artwork, there'd been, like, some copyright issues about that? Is that true? Well, we really never do anything legal, I mean, with anything, really. Right now, we're actually... I had the brilliant idea to make the Jack Daniels cover, and... I was against it. Everybody was against it, yeah, I'm just, you know, I like to do cheesy stuff like that.
Yeah. And, so, but yeah, recently we got a letter from Jack Daniels, and they said, basically, stop making any more, but you can sell what you have, so they were pretty cool about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But, yeah, we couldn't use it anymore.
I asked them, you know, I said, we're big supporters of your products. Tell them a letter you sent back. And, you know, maybe you can sponsor us or something, you know. But I didn't get a reply. I think we're still waiting by the mailbox on that one. They were like, please stop using her logo, and you're like, want to send us free stuff? Come on. Yeah, you know. Case is Jack, and we'll call it even, huh? Yeah. I figured they were going to read the letter, you know, because they'll probably get a million letters from people or whatever, and they'll probably read that one. Now you've got one of the legal, you've got an N at the legal department. That's what I was hoping, yeah. The best part about the story is the recoil is now that, so that CD's completely sold out, like, out of print, et cetera.
But in order to repress it, Rob, he's going to rip off something else. Yeah, he, uh, the next, you gotta, you should see the reprint of the, the, um, the next record. We're going to do the Wild Turkey. Yeah, he's going to, he takes the Wild Turkey logo and cut off the turkey's head. You're just trying to get it in with hard alcohol, aren't you? Yeah, maybe, uh, Wild Turkey will send us a cease and desist letter. Maybe, yeah, yeah. Hey, I mean, you know. Any publicity is good publicity, right? Yeah, that's the thing is, I mean, if they heard about it somehow, I mean. Yeah, that's the best thing. Yeah, I don't know how. Jack Daniels heard Whiskey Sundae. Somebody at their company probably looks on it at a record store or wherever, you know.
A whiskey sponsor would be a good sponsor. Probably some punk, like, drunk punk dude, like, squatter dude that works in the warehouse or something. A squatter dude. Hey, any in that you can get. So, you guys, any, uh, idea when you're looking to re-release it or anything like that? Um, yeah, I just gotta get a remaster. Probably, you know, like, um, before next summer it'll be out and re-released. Cool, cool. So, yeah. Well, hopefully this one, maybe it'll get pulled eventually. It's got, uh, bonus tracks of stuff. It's in. It'll be remastered, so. We should buy it as soon as possible because we don't know when. Exactly, exactly. Seriously, if you can, try to find the old one, buy the next one, and then when we do the third price, we should buy one of those.
Buy as many of these albums. Yeah. That's a good, like, just do it illegally and that way they're bound to get season assist. I mean, these things might not ever come out again. Yeah. Wanna, in case. You might wanna get one now. Yeah. In case you guys don't ever put out, uh, the first album again, are you guys working on a new one? It's been, what, a couple years since the last album? That's what we're doing right now. That's what you hear, all the noise over here. That's what you're gonna do. They're working on some songs. We're at the practice place tonight. We're recording, uh, working on brand new songs. I think we've got, I think Dover's got several dozen. We've got four mics here. We've learned about four or five so far.
We'll record it all after this. Could you? Um, so yeah, the new one, the new one's gonna be the best one, uh, so far. That's what you said last time. Well, we got, uh. The best one of, uh, so it's the first one. Oh, that's true, yeah. So, as long as we top the last one, then we're right. That's right. We got, uh, I think we got new guys. We got, uh, new songs. I think everything's. We got Mr. Mike Fox and Mr. Rusty Pipes. Yeah, everything is, is well in place right now to make a really, really, really good record. Yeah, well, if people don't know, like Dover writes all the songs, but we're finally, like, working as a band to actually put together the songs. The difference now is, like, I'll, I'll, I'll show them the songs and they'll, uh, and they'll, they'll, they'll just fill in all the crap to make it sound good.
Hey, you stuck with a bunch of fucking egomaniacs now. No, no, no. These guys, these guys are great. It's, it's, it's not just, it's not just, uh, my songs now. It's like, uh, it's, it's, it's, it's Dover's songs put together by Whiskey Sunday. Yeah, yeah. Dover's the, uh, the chief, chief songwriter. He walks in with the, the kind of skeleton. He walks in with a case of beer and a, he walks in with a, a good, a good buzz and a half of a song and. And halfway through the rest of the buzz. Yeah. Then we, uh, so it's been good. Actually, today I had, like, a whole song. He actually did. That's it.
Hopefully we're going to finish writing and get recording through the holidays. In 2007, man. 2007, like in the early part. Get this thing going. Uh, hopefully, uh, we can get either our friend Steve-O at 1234-GO to, to help us out and maybe do another record. Or maybe Atlantic Records. Yeah. I saw their, uh, RNA hanging out outside, so. We got solicited by, uh, them actually because they read a review in Max Rock and Roll. Uh, Pacific Records. How weird was that? And the guy called me up and I'm all, like, everybody got a little bit too stoked on that idea. But it was kind of funny because, like, I'm all, Atlantic? Like, ACDC? He's all, yeah. I'm like, okay, I'll send you this CD, whatever. You don't, you've never heard of something, you fucker.
Yeah, he just read the review, yeah. Yeah, maybe listen to some of the stuff on the internet before you start. Yeah. But it's kind of cool that these guys actually do go out and read these little scenes and actually look for new bands, well, you know, so that's pretty cool. I just think, uh, I don't know, we've met a lot of people this year, like, through, like, the Japanese tour and through the European tour and through even, you know, we, uh, got some new friends up in, like, friends up in the Northwest and in Portland and Seattle and, you know, Southern California now. Um, and then definitely going to the Fest, we've built kind of a network of cool, you know, The Fest. We need to go to Quebec and hang out at the St. Catharines.
Yeah, the St. Catharines. We should, we need to go up to Canada. Because they're apparently, when we talk to them, they're like, they never get invited down to the West Coast just because big bands are always like, yeah, we're going to go to New York. And they're like, we never get to California. So going to Quebec's probably the best chance to hang out with them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, and they're awesome. Great. I mean, you know, their record is amazing. Coolbeck's really cool. That's amazing. I mean, yeah. It's not being real misty, but it's on the same continent. Can I put in something like, I'm surprised if somebody's listening right now because Rob, you, and Eric are like the most boring people I've ever heard talk ever in my life.
And like, and I'm not listening to you. I'm listening to these guys, like, play fucking lame cover songs. They're playing hard right now. They're playing hard right now. There's nothing lame about crazy ideas. So I'm just, I'm just, I'm just hoping that, like, this interview went okay. Because I, I won't even fucking paint it. That's how boring you were to me. The best thing about this, check it out, okay. Okay, that's our singer Dover. He doesn't, okay. Dude, you got that monotone fucking talking. He's got a, he doesn't have cable. He doesn't have a computer. I'm just, I'm just joking. He's never going to hear this. He doesn't even have a phone. Oh, that's going to be, he doesn't even have a phone. He can't even call out of San Jose.
He's got a phone, but doesn't go out of San Jose. But he writes great songs. That's what he does. That's the isolation. Well, no, if you want isolation, you should go, you should check, check Dover out. I would, but I don't know how to contact him. He's got a dog, though. Does he have mail? I'm just, I'm just joking, um, of course. Can I send him a letter? I'm just, yeah, you can send him a letter, yeah. He has an address. I think there's an address. Oh, yeah, angry letter, send them to me. I put, I put my address on the album. I, I, I'm not afraid. Yep, everybody has names and addresses. Don't hide behind PO boxes, you know. Send those letter bombs right to you. Right to you. Ask a good question. You can come over and kick my ass if you like.
I'm an asking good questions. No, let's have a good question. I don't think we got time for a good question. Yeah. You got time, dude. You got editing. Well, let's whip through these last couple of ones you got, then. I think we got through them one way or another. I think we're going to, uh, wrap this interview up before it completely degenerates, which probably isn't. Apologies. Probably over there. Yeah, it's, it's not too far off if it is. Um, so real quick, anything you guys want to plug, upcoming shows, websites, CDs. Yeah, uh, absolutely. We are, uh, we are going to be playing in the Bay Area here in San Jose on January 5th at Johnny V's, uh, with some friends of ours from Southern California, some other bands that play at the Fest that we met, uh, Vina Cava, and another band called In the Red, which they were not at the Fest, but, uh, if you're into the whole No Idea Records thing, it's Mike Hale from Gunmol's new band.
They're called In the Red. Whiskey Sunday. And, uh, the 6th, the next day, we are playing in San Francisco. Somewhere. Um, we're not sure quite, uh, well, they're, they're coming up from Southern California, so we're going to hook them up at the Friday show in San Jose, and we're going to try to, you know, get them something going in San Francisco. Yeah. And then, uh, say, yeah, be there, be there. But, uh, also, we are very excited about, uh, we're going to be playing at the Blank Club with our friends Commercial Static, uh, on the 24th, is that correct? 25th is the Friday of that weekend. The 25th, something like that. 25th at the Blank Club. But the really cool show is the 23rd. The 23rd in Santa Cruz, uh, we're playing with Avail, and we're also playing with The Draft, and we're really excited about that.
January 23rd. It's a Tuesday night, which kind of sucks. I'm already nervous. I'm really, really excited about the show. Well, it's like the first time Avail has come to the West Coast. Yeah, it's been a long time. It's a big deal. So it's a Tuesday night, we're playing with The Draft, one of my favorite bands I've been listening to non-stop. Um, with Avail, legendary band. Um, we're also playing with Crucial Unicorn, which is our friend Joe Clement's band, who, uh, ex-Fury 66, and he's the, uh, owner of the Compound Studios. That's his band. Um, so we're excited. A lot of friends, and it's going to be a good time. It's Tuesday night. It starts early, 7.30. It's because it's Tuesday. At the Catalyst in San Francisco, right off the Pacific.
Yeah, it's got to start early. All ages. Catalyst in Santa Cruz. It's all ages. It's going to be great. You said, man. But yeah, anyways, our website, whiskey sunday.com, or my label, vinehill.com, or 1, 2, 3, 4, go records, or, you know, fucking MySpace, dude. Everything's on MySpace nowadays. It's how it works. They can get McDonald's on MySpace. But anyways, yeah, thanks for doing the interview. No problem. Thank you guys, and, uh, all the best. Thanks. Sorry about the interview. Sorry about the diarrhea that I'm out of my head. Alright, thanks, uh, that's it. That's the interview, all of it. I don't know if you could tell this week, but I'm losing my voice, so I'm going to try and cut this short and let you know that we have a contest this week for Whiskey Sunday.
Here's how it goes if you want to enter, and you know you fucking do. Send us an email with your address, uh, and in the subject line, put Whiskey Sunday contest, send it to soundscenerevolution at gmail dot com, and to make sure you guys are listening, in the contest, what you're going to do, Whiskey Sunday got a cease and desist letter from Jack Daniels for putting Jack Daniels on their label, like doing a mock print up with the Jack Daniels label for the album. What alcohol would you put on your album, whether it be like Paps or like some really expensive beer like Duvel or I don't know, some shit like that. What would you put on your album? So include that in the email and Whiskey Sunday contest at soundscenerevolution, or Whiskey Sunday contest in the subject line to soundscenerevolution at gmail dot com.
Make sure to include your address and all that so we can get a hold of you and we can make sure to send it out to you. Otherwise, we're going to send you something like you won, and then you're just going to get a dick in a box.
That's what we're going to send you. And if you don't know what that's from, get on YouTube and search dick in a box and do it at work, for real, so that then everyone at your work can see that you've been searching for dick in a box. Alright, so that wraps up this week's contest and interview and all that. I hope you enjoy it. We're going to play one last song by Whiskey Sunday. It's called Angry Man's Dinner, which if you've ever met Dover, I'm assuming like most of his meals, it's liquid, and so it should be a good time. I hope you guys enjoy it. I hope you enjoyed the interview. We're going to be off for a couple of days to celebrate the holidays and give people dicks in boxes, and I hope you guys should check it out and enjoy your holidays, and we'll see you guys back after the new year.
Peace.
