Wait, what? Buddy Guy? The old blues guitarist guy? Yes, that’s precisely who we got on the phone with this time. Actually, what happened was, I got on the phone with him and got almost nothing juicy out of the guy so I played the highlights back to Pinky and we made a show around that.

Buddy had just completed his first album of original songs and was on such good behaviour, I was bummed. I wanted to hear about his boozing escapades and how he always uses the ladies bathroom because he thinks it’s funny (it is). Instead, every well-documented story became a silly rumor and even the boozing became a way to overcome shyness so he could sing. B-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ring.

Anyhiz, we needed to get Suicidal Tendencies off there so we just pulled in the weirdest records we could find and hammered it out off the dome – no editing. This is what our personalities are really like without all the audio make up on our sound face.
