• 1:38
  Speaker 14: bringing you coverage from the recent West Fest 2. Yes,
• 1:40
  Speaker 14: last year provided such a great soundtrack episode that I
• 1:43
  Speaker 14: was thrilled when Heather asked us to come back and
• 1:45
  Speaker 14: be part of this year's show. And for me, I
• 1:47
  Speaker 14: wanted to add something extra this year. So aside from
• 1:49
  Speaker 14: just playing some of the soundtrack-themed songs from the event,
• 1:52
  Speaker 14: I'll also welcome not one, but two special guests to
• 1:55
  Speaker 14: sit in this episode, both of whom were performers at
• 1:57
  Speaker 14: this year's show. So we'll discuss how they decided to
• 2:00
  Speaker 14: approach their performance, as well as their exposure and thoughts
• 2:03
  Speaker 14: on Wes Anderson's movies and soundtracks in general. But first,
• 2:06
  Speaker 14: I thought we would kick off the episode just the
• 2:08
  Speaker 14: way the event did, with our all-around host and house
• 2:10
  Speaker 14: band for the evening. This is Oscar Parsons and the
• 2:13
  Speaker 14: Picket Line with Take These Chains From My Heart, originally
• 2:15
  Speaker 14: featured in Moonrise Kingdom.

  Speaker 9: Down in the boroughs, one of our favorites to play
• 2:20
  Speaker 9: is Penguins.
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: Well, take these chains from my heart and set me free. Oh,
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: you've grown cold and no longer care for me.

  Speaker 7: set me free Take these tears from my eyes.

  Speaker 16: All right, so now we have a special guest here
• 6:22
  Speaker 16: with us.
• 6:22
  Speaker 14: I guess to introduce yourself and then your band that
• 6:25
  Speaker 14: you're affiliated with.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: My name is Jonathan A. Mitchell. I play with a
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: group called Nelly Pearl.
• 6:33
  Speaker 16: And how did you get involved with West Fest?
• 6:38
  Speaker 17: I was contacted by Heather, Miss Hey DJ. and uh
• 6:45
  Speaker 17: she asked if we were interested she actually asked us
• 6:48
  Speaker 17: in like november or december if we were interested and
• 6:51
  Speaker 17: uh our bass player thought he had a gig booked
• 6:54
  Speaker 17: on the same weekend and so we turned it down
• 6:57
  Speaker 17: reluctantly like i really didn't want to do it i
• 6:59
  Speaker 17: remember talking to our drummer and like are we really
• 7:02
  Speaker 17: going to turn this gig down it's.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Going to be great a chance to.
• 7:04
  Speaker 17: Play at the mercury and um just a chance to
• 7:08
  Speaker 17: get involved in a cool event we all like wes
• 7:09
  Speaker 17: anderson and uh it's like what else are we gonna
• 7:12
  Speaker 17: do you know he's booked already so we can't we
• 7:15
  Speaker 17: said we couldn't do it and i had gone to
• 7:19
  Speaker 17: oregon for like three weeks three and a half weeks
• 7:22
  Speaker 17: over christmas and came back and we finally got together
• 7:26
  Speaker 17: sometime in like mid-january and we're just like talking about
• 7:30
  Speaker 17: how sad we were that we couldn't play the event
• 7:32
  Speaker 17: and he's like ask us what the date was and
• 7:35
  Speaker 17: i told him and he said well uh why.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Did we turn that down again? Like I'm not booked
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: that weekend.
• 7:40
  Speaker 17: What are you talking about? And he's like, well, I mean, I, uh, I'm,
• 7:44
  Speaker 17: I'm booked like on the 20th. I thought that's what
• 7:46
  Speaker 17: you said. I was like, it's on the seven, man.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: So I just called Heather immediately.
• 7:51
  Speaker 17: Like right then I called her and she said that
• 7:53
  Speaker 17: they were actually getting ready to make a decision on,
• 7:55
  Speaker 17: they had one more slot. They couldn't fill it yet.
• 7:57
  Speaker 17: And they were getting ready to make a decision maybe
• 7:59
  Speaker 17: that day or the next day. And that since we
• 8:02
  Speaker 17: had called the time we could, We could fill that space,
• 8:05
  Speaker 17: so we were very fortunate.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: I guess.
• 8:08
  Speaker 12: Definitely.
• 8:09
  Speaker 14: Well, I guess, how long has the band been together,
• 8:11
  Speaker 14: and sort of where did it find its origins?
• 8:14
  Speaker 17: Nelly Pearl's been together for over two years now, I
• 8:17
  Speaker 17: guess like around two and a half years. I was
• 8:21
  Speaker 17: playing in a band called Blunt Honey, which is still playing.
• 8:25
  Speaker 17: We're playing next week with Blunt.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Nelly Pearl, actually.
• 8:31
  Speaker 8: Double duty.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:32
  Speaker 17: So it's our first show in like a year and
• 8:34
  Speaker 17: a half. And that band, we had some health issues.
• 8:38
  Speaker 17: And so we decided to take.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Some time off.
• 8:43
  Speaker 17: And I was just writing a lot of music at
• 8:45
  Speaker 17: the time and didn't have any place for.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: It to go.
• 8:47
  Speaker 17: And so me and my friend Jess Langer started singing
• 8:52
  Speaker 17: these songs together. And I knew the guys that played
• 8:56
  Speaker 17: bass and drums and asked if they wanted to play
• 8:58
  Speaker 17: and just got together and did it again and just
• 9:02
  Speaker 17: kind of kept going from there.
• 9:03
  Speaker 9: Definitely.
• 9:04
  Speaker 14: And then how did, did you initially plan on having
• 9:07
  Speaker 14: sort of dual locals going there?
• 9:09
  Speaker 18: Uh, yeah.
• 9:10
  Speaker 17: A lot of the stuff I was writing was for
• 9:13
  Speaker 17: a male and a female to sing together and sometimes
• 9:16
  Speaker 17: like back and forth, which I'd never done before. And
• 9:18
  Speaker 17: that was part of Nelly Pearl was getting away. Blunt
• 9:21
  Speaker 17: Honey was really, um, roots. Like, bluegrass you know like
• 9:27
  Speaker 17: a string band set up and so like it wasn't
• 9:30
  Speaker 17: necessarily traditional bluegrass but it was close and um i
• 9:34
  Speaker 17: wanted to write weird stuff you know like i fell
• 9:37
  Speaker 17: in love with music with the beatles and radiohead and
• 9:40
  Speaker 17: fish and these experimental bands and so i've always wanted
• 9:43
  Speaker 17: to experiment and that's started with the songwriting and now
• 9:47
  Speaker 17: has eventually led to the instrumentation and the band is
• 9:50
  Speaker 17: getting more experimental it's a lot.
• 9:52
  Speaker 9: Of fun well here we are I'd like to bring
• 9:55
  Speaker 9: you the pearls coming up next on stage. right now.
• 10:40
  Speaker 19: Police the thieves in the streets. War on the nation
• 10:47
  Speaker 19: with guns and ammunition. Police the thieves in the streets.

  Speaker 5: Oh yeah!
• 13:33
  Speaker 13: Police, police, police, police and thieves.
• 13:36
  Speaker 21: Oh yeah!
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: Genocide. Revelation.
• 13:46
  Speaker 7: Next generation.
• 15:03
  Speaker 14: Because that was what I thought was so different and
• 15:05
  Speaker 14: kind of striking about what you guys were doing was
• 15:07
  Speaker 14: the way that the vocals were worked in and the setup.
• 15:10
  Speaker 14: And any of those that's like, especially a guy and
• 15:12
  Speaker 14: a girl, I always get like an X thing.
• 15:15
  Speaker 16: Like that was such a massive, like entertaining thing that
• 15:18
  Speaker 16: they always did.
• 15:19
  Speaker 14: So anybody who can kind of capture something similar, I
• 15:21
  Speaker 14: always love that.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
• 15:24
  Speaker 17: But yeah, we, that's always been a, focal point for
• 15:28
  Speaker 17: the band is the male-female. And now Greg, our bass player,
• 15:32
  Speaker 17: he's a great singer. And it just kind of, I
• 15:34
  Speaker 17: don't know, took him a couple years to really feel
• 15:36
  Speaker 17: comfortable and start finding his niche with us. And he's
• 15:40
  Speaker 17: got a great falsetto. And so he can throw in
• 15:44
  Speaker 17: these strange harmonies now. And so we're singing a lot
• 15:46
  Speaker 17: of three-part. West Fest was really one of the first
• 15:49
  Speaker 17: shows where we've sung a lot of three-part because it's
• 15:52
  Speaker 17: the first time that we've worked on a lot of
• 15:54
  Speaker 17: new material.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: For three of us singing.
• 15:57
  Speaker 17: And, um, so we tried to put that in a
• 16:01
  Speaker 17: lot of places.
• 16:02
  Speaker 16: What was a good example that night of that?
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Um, well we did, uh, let's see. Oh, jumping Jack flash.
• 16:10
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 16:37
  Speaker 11: I was born on a crossfire hurricane. And I yelled
• 16:45
  Speaker 11: at my mom in the driving rain.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Well, it's all right now. In fact, it's a yes. Yeah,
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: it's all right.
• 17:01
  Speaker 22: I'm a jumping jet, flashing some gas, gas, gas. I
• 17:12
  Speaker 22: was praised by.
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: A bearded, toothless head. I was screwed with.
• 17:18
  Speaker 15: A strap right across my back. Well, it's all right now.
• 17:23
  Speaker 23: In fact, it's a gas.
• 17:25
  Speaker 24: Yeah, it's.
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: All right. I've been jumping, jamming, flashing.
• 17:37
  Speaker 21: It's a gas, gas, gas.
• 18:11
  Speaker 11: I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead.
• 18:17
  Speaker 11: I looked down at my feet and saw they'd bled.
• 18:23
  Speaker 11: I drowned at the crumbs of the crust of bread.
• 18:31
  Speaker 11: I drowned with a spark right through my heart.
• 18:37
  Speaker 15: When I saw.
• 18:44
  Speaker 21: It's all right.
• 18:48
  Speaker 15: I'm a jumping jack blast. It's a gas, gas, gas.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: Jumping Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas.
• 19:40
  Speaker 17: I think my favorite was Needle in the Hay. The
• 20:02
  Speaker 17: first time we went through the song or through the chorus,
• 20:05
  Speaker 17: Rachel sang the same exact not as me saying in
• 20:08
  Speaker 17: unison with me to give it like that layered Elliot
• 20:10
  Speaker 17: Smith feel. And, um, but then we also like, we
• 20:14
  Speaker 17: didn't want to sing it just like Elliot Smith and
• 20:16
  Speaker 17: put everybody to sleep. And so we wanted to put
• 20:18
  Speaker 17: her on spin on it.
• 20:19
  Speaker 16: And you definitely didn't by the end.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: People were awake.
• 20:24
  Speaker 16: Um, It kind of breaks halfway through, and I'm like, oh,
• 20:28
  Speaker 16: this is awesome.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: It kind of took a Nirvana turn, I guess. A
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: 90s grunge.
• 20:34
  Speaker 16: Which was really easy.
• 20:36
  Speaker 17: And appropriate, I felt, because Elliot Smith is from the
• 20:40
  Speaker 17: Pacific Northwest. He lived in Portland in the 90s and
• 20:44
  Speaker 17: was making music himself. So it just naturally sounded good.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Just like that. It was perfect.
• 20:52
  Speaker 14: And especially where it gets used in context with the movie.
• 20:55
  Speaker 14: It's like, I guess, in the original form, it's sort
• 20:58
  Speaker 14: of that weird juxtaposition of how calm it is with
• 21:01
  Speaker 14: the horrible things going on.
• 21:03
  Speaker 16: And you kind of flipped it and.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: Went the other way.
• 21:04
  Speaker 14: Like, okay, this is sort of the real mood of
• 21:07
  Speaker 14: what you're probably dealing with.
• 21:09
  Speaker 16: And then you offed yourself. For anyone who wasn't there,
• 21:13
  Speaker 16: I guess.
• 21:14
  Speaker 17: I actually just saw the video of it for the
• 21:17
  Speaker 17: first time.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: And, like, I mean.
• 21:21
  Speaker 17: I guess for anybody that wasn't there, we staged a
• 21:24
  Speaker 17: scene from a movie where a man cut his wrist
• 21:28
  Speaker 17: and attempted suicide to no avail. And we staged this
• 21:34
  Speaker 17: on stage. And so I came up with the idea
• 21:38
  Speaker 17: as soon as we chose that song.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: I love that movie. I love Elliot Smith. I love
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: that scene.
• 21:45
  Speaker 17: And I was dressing up as the same character. And
• 21:47
  Speaker 17: so it was perfect. We have to do this tune.
• 21:50
  Speaker 17: But I knew that we couldn't just do it all
• 21:53
  Speaker 17: soft and sad, and we wanted to really show that
• 21:58
  Speaker 17: we're a rock band. We get put on acoustic bills.
• 22:01
  Speaker 17: We're on a bluegrass festival bill coming up soon.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: We're the only band with.
• 22:06
  Speaker 17: Drums, and so we're trying to make it known that
• 22:09
  Speaker 17: we can throw down pretty hard.
• 22:11
  Speaker 16: Branch out.
• 22:12
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 22:13
  Speaker 17: And so when we picked that song, I really wanted
• 22:15
  Speaker 17: to go for it. And I wanted to stage that scene.
• 22:19
  Speaker 17: And Rachel, our singer, didn't necessarily.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: Like that idea. And I know she had seen the film.
• 22:24
  Speaker 17: It had been a while. And so we watched the movie.
• 22:27
  Speaker 17: And we kind of bounced some more ideas around off
• 22:30
  Speaker 17: of each other and decided that everybody could get involved.
• 22:33
  Speaker 17: It wouldn't just be me. And we had lots of
• 22:36
  Speaker 17: different ideas. And we finally settled on a few ideas.
• 22:39
  Speaker 17: And I was just all about it the whole time.
• 22:42
  Speaker 17: It wasn't until afterwards when people were like, man, you
• 22:47
  Speaker 17: took one hell of a chance up there with that
• 22:49
  Speaker 17: kind of stunt, man.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: That was pretty intense. I was like, really?
• 22:53
  Speaker 17: They're like, yeah, we actually didn't really know what the
• 22:56
  Speaker 17: hell was going on until she lit that cigarette. I
• 22:58
  Speaker 17: think it was Heather was like, man, we were all
• 23:00
  Speaker 17: kind of like, oh, my God, this is really morbid.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: And then she lights the cigarette and takes a puff.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: We're like, oh, my God, that's a freaking piece of art.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: It was like, oh, but, like, now it makes me
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: kind of nervous to talk about it.
• 23:13
  Speaker 14: I mean, that was the best part, is, like, the
• 23:15
  Speaker 14: fact that by the end, she's just sort of ignoring
• 23:17
  Speaker 14: the fact that you're killing yourself and smoking your cigarette, and, like,
• 23:21
  Speaker 14: that was kind of awesome.
• 23:22
  Speaker 17: Yeah, because, I mean, like, in the end, like, I
• 23:24
  Speaker 17: felt like Margot didn't really return the love to Richie
• 23:27
  Speaker 17: like he always had to her, and so it was
• 23:29
  Speaker 17: really appropriate that she just kept her cold composure.
• 23:32
  Speaker 16: That was awesome.
• 23:34
  Speaker 17: Yeah, because initially, it was just, like, the idea was
• 23:37
  Speaker 17: I was going to, cut my wrist with the fake blood.
• 23:40
  Speaker 17: And then we came up with the, with the plan
• 23:43
  Speaker 17: for her to do that. And I'm so glad that
• 23:45
  Speaker 17: we did now because, uh, apparently my girlfriend was in
• 23:49
  Speaker 17: the crowd and she said that a woman behind her
• 23:51
  Speaker 17: didn't realize that it was an act at first. And like,
• 23:55
  Speaker 17: why is nobody helping that man? Like how, how come
• 23:58
  Speaker 17: no one's helping him?
• 23:59
  Speaker 15: Don't interrupt the show.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 24:03
  Speaker 16: Move the bodies later.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: I think our bass player, I came over and actually
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: kicked my leg.
• 24:08
  Speaker 16: He'd been waiting to do that for years.
• 24:09
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 24:10
  Speaker 9: Probably.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: He certainly has.
• 24:13
  Speaker 16: Well, I think it is kind of.
• 24:14
  Speaker 14: You can't do it any other way but the finale.
• 24:17
  Speaker 16: I mean, it'd be hard to then get up and
• 24:19
  Speaker 16: continue on.
• 24:20
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 24:21
  Speaker 16: Like, that's your opening number.
• 24:22
  Speaker 17: We had not planned on doing that last. And so, like,
• 24:27
  Speaker 17: we had planned on doing the Rolling Stones Jumpin' Jack Flash.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: And doing that last.
• 24:35
  Speaker 21: And.
• 24:37
  Speaker 17: Even like doing the scene, like cutting the wrist and whatnot.
• 24:40
  Speaker 17: And then like, we had talked about even like if
• 24:42
  Speaker 17: we could cut my hair and shave my beard, like
• 24:46
  Speaker 17: if it could like actually be done on stage and
• 24:48
  Speaker 17: the amount of time, I'm just.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: Like, man, there's no feasible way. Even if I had
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: somebody helping.
• 24:53
  Speaker 17: Me, I'm going to be able to... I was dozed
• 24:56
  Speaker 17: down to go all out for the part.
• 24:58
  Speaker 16: You're going to start losing people at that point. They're
• 25:01
  Speaker 16: going to be like, let's go get a drink.
• 25:02
  Speaker 17: It's going to take 20 minutes to actually shave. But
• 25:07
  Speaker 17: I was willing. We've bounced a lot of ideas around
• 25:10
  Speaker 17: for that. We were initially going to do it second
• 25:13
  Speaker 17: to last. Once we played it, and played Rolling Stones
• 25:20
  Speaker 17: and that back-to-back.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: You can't. There's no other song. You can't play another
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: song after you've played all that.
• 25:27
  Speaker 16: There's no coming back from that. It's the all-in at
• 25:29
  Speaker 16: that point.
• 25:31
  Speaker 17: It will be interesting to see where that pops up
• 25:33
  Speaker 17: again in our live shows.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: What venue? We're going to break that one out.
• 25:37
  Speaker 17: We plan on using all of those songs at some point.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: We're very excited about them. It's a huge benefit to
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: playing West Fest.
• 25:45

  Speaker 14: Once again, here's Nellie Pearl putting a different spin on
• 26:38
  Speaker 14: a classic Bowie song.
• 26:39
  Speaker 16: This is Queen Bitch.
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: Two.
• 27:02
  Speaker 25: I'm up on the 11th floor and I'm watching the
• 27:05
  Speaker 25: cruisers below. He's down on the street and he's trying
• 27:11
  Speaker 25: hard to pool sister flow. My heart's in the basement,
• 27:18
  Speaker 25: my weekend's at an all-time low. She's hoping to score,
• 27:25
  Speaker 25: but I can't see her letting him go. Walk out
• 27:28
  Speaker 25: of her heart, walk out of her mind. Yeah, she's
• 27:33
  Speaker 25: so pushy and a static.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Chat And her frock coat and bibbity-bobbity hat Oh, God,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: I could do.
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: Better than that.
• 27:49
  Speaker 25: She's an old-time ambassador of sweet-talking, not-walking games And she's
• 27:56
  Speaker 25: known in the darkest of clubs for pushing ahead of
• 27:59
  Speaker 25: the dames.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: If she says she can do it, then she can
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: do it.
• 28:06
  Speaker 15: She don't make false claims.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Cause she's a queen and such a queen that your
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: laughter is sucked in their brains.
• 28:14
  Speaker 20: Now she's leading them on and she'll.
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: Lay them right down.
• 28:18
  Speaker 15: Now she's leading them on and.
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: She'll lay them right down.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: But it could have been me, oh yes it could
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: have been me Why didn't I say, why didn't I
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: say No, no, no She goes with the innocent intent
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: In her black coat and bibbity-bobbity hat Oh, that I could.
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: Do better than that.
• 28:43
  Speaker 25: So I lay down a while And I look at
• 28:49
  Speaker 25: my hotel wall.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Oh, this cot is so cold, it don't feel like no.
• 28:57
  Speaker 15: Bed at all.
• 29:01
  Speaker 25: Yeah, I lay down a while, and I stare at
• 29:04
  Speaker 25: my hotel wall. So I can't feel nothing. Now I'm
• 29:13
  Speaker 25: calling a cab, and my stomach feels small.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: There's a taste in my mouth, and it's no taste
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: at all. But it could have been me. Oh, yes,
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: it could have been me. Why didn't I say?
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: Why didn't I say?
• 29:28
  Speaker 15: No, no, no.
• 29:29
  Speaker 21: She's so pushy, understanding, and chad.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: In her bright coat and bibbity-bobbity hat.
• 29:35
  Speaker 13: Oh, but I could do better than that.
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: Hey, Chadwick.
• 29:31
  Speaker 15: With no beard, oh my gosh.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Shaved my beard, too. Now I wonder what happened. Well,
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: we have a special guest.
• 30:05
  Speaker 16: Introduce yourself and your band.
• 30:07
  Speaker 6: Hi, I'm Late. I'm Shadwick. I play in a band
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: called Quiet Hollers.
• 30:13
  Speaker 14: So we were just discussing working covers into your normal
• 30:18
  Speaker 14: kind of song choices.
• 30:20
  Speaker 12: So I don't know.
• 30:21
  Speaker 16: What were you saying?
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: We really... We like to.
• 30:27
  Speaker 17: Just pull out the weirdest cover we possibly can. And
• 30:30
  Speaker 17: every time we have a local show or go on
• 30:33
  Speaker 17: a tour or something, we like to try to work
• 30:36
  Speaker 17: in something strange that we've never heard a band play.
• 30:39
  Speaker 17: And we had a lot of luck with that this
• 30:41
  Speaker 17: last year, a few different tunes. And so playing with
• 30:46
  Speaker 17: West Fest gave us an excuse to just learn six
• 30:48
  Speaker 17: new awesome songs that we can take on the road
• 30:51
  Speaker 17: with us and sprinkle in.
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: Very excited about it, definitely.
• 30:57
  Speaker 14: Chadwick, you're in a very different spot than everybody else
• 31:00
  Speaker 14: on the bill as you've been there before.
• 31:02
  Speaker 16: So I guess what.
• 31:03
  Speaker 14: Was, because you did a great job last year, so
• 31:06
  Speaker 14: I was like, now where do you go? How did
• 31:08
  Speaker 14: you approach it this year as to what you were
• 31:11
  Speaker 14: going to bring to it that was different from the
• 31:13
  Speaker 14: previous time?
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: Well, the producers of the event made it really easy
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: for us, and in that... they suggested slash told us
• 31:24
  Speaker 6: that we were gonna do basically the same songs that
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: we did last year we played first last year um
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: so i guess a lot of people missed yeah um
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: we did we were able to kind of convince them
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: to let us do a ramon song that i really
• 31:40
  Speaker 6: wanted to do yeah and other than that uh we
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: still kind of had at least half of a handle
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: on the cover songs from the year before, having only
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: played one of them regularly. That was the Hank Williams song,
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: Ramblin' Man. We pulled that one out a few times
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: in the aggregate between those two Westbests. But, yeah, it
• 32:04
  Speaker 6: was a pretty easy thing for us to be able
• 32:07
  Speaker 6: to just pull out the ones from.
• 32:09
  Speaker 16: Come back into it.
• 32:10
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 32:10
  Speaker 16: Well, Shadwick's right.
• 32:12
  Speaker 14: We actually heard quite a few of their songs from
• 32:13
  Speaker 14: that performance last year. So first off, I'd say go
• 32:16
  Speaker 14: back and listen to the original West Fest episode from
• 32:18
  Speaker 14: last year and check out their great performance there. But
• 32:21
  Speaker 14: since we're playing quite a bit of new music from
• 32:23
  Speaker 14: this show, from Nelly Pearl, I thought we'd balance things
• 32:25
  Speaker 14: out a little and play the latest single from Quiet Hollers.
• 32:28
  Speaker 16: This is called Liar Song, and.
• 32:29
  Speaker 14: It's actually getting quite a bit of airplay on the
• 32:31
  Speaker 14: radio station here. So if they're not playing it in
• 32:34
  Speaker 14: your town, call up and request it at your local
• 32:36
  Speaker 14: radio station. If, in fact, they still have radio stations.
• 32:40
  Speaker 14: I mean, with awesome shows like Attack of the Killer Soundtrack,
• 32:43
  Speaker 14: I don't know why you'd.
• 32:44
  Speaker 16: Need a radio station.
• 32:45
  Speaker 14: But assuming you're one of those people who still listens
• 32:47
  Speaker 14: to one, call up and request Liar Song. And on
• 32:50
  Speaker 14: that note, you can find both these bands and all
• 32:52
  Speaker 14: the bands from West Fest online. So go find videos
• 32:55
  Speaker 14: on YouTube. You can download their songs on iTunes and
• 32:58
  Speaker 14: Reverb Nation and Bandcamp. I'm sure you'll probably find them
• 33:01
  Speaker 14: on most of those avenues. So go support all the
• 33:03
  Speaker 14: bands from West Fest. But right now, we're going to
• 33:05
  Speaker 14: play that latest single from Quiet Hollers.
• 33:08
  Speaker 12: This is Liar Song.
• 33:10
  Speaker 27: I was born a liar Thrown into a fire Raised
• 33:17
  Speaker 27: in anger like a gun Beat down into the.
• 33:21
  Speaker 28: Mire When my first steps on crutches I stumble into
• 33:28
  Speaker 28: their clutches And it never crossed my mind to resist
• 33:33
  Speaker 28: They told.
• 33:33
  Speaker 15: Me I was born for.
• 33:36
  Speaker 21: This Thank you.
• 33:50
  Speaker 15: Just change the channel for a while.
• 33:53
  Speaker 26: I'll be asleep here, so.
• 33:57
  Speaker 13: I do not care to know what's happening outside this room.
• 34:04
  Speaker 29: You drink your tea and I will sit here stony-eyed.
• 34:10
  Speaker 26: If we can make it through this one, I think
• 34:15
  Speaker 26: we'll be alright.
• 34:32
  Speaker 13: I'm sorry, but it came out all wrong I told
• 34:40
  Speaker 13: you not to worry And then.
• 34:42
  Speaker 15: The liar came along.
• 34:59
  Speaker 26: Party dress on and I'll wear my one good soul
• 35:04
  Speaker 26: and we don't even have to talk to anyone just
• 35:10
  Speaker 26: drink their wine and.
• 35:13
  Speaker 13: Eat their food I was born a liar my friend
• 35:19

• 37:18
  Speaker 15: But I got.
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: To the river so lonesome I wanted you to die.

• 39:53
  Speaker 23: Yeah.

  Speaker 16: Works for us.
• 39:55
  Speaker 14: I mean, it's one of those that his stuff, it's
• 39:57
  Speaker 14: funny how well it translates, no matter how many years later,
• 40:00
  Speaker 14: the different styles, like Hank, the real Hank, Hank Sr.
• 40:05
  Speaker 6: The only Hank.
• 40:05
  Speaker 16: The only Hank I acknowledge, really.
• 40:07
  Speaker 6: Acceptable to refer to as Hank. Yeah. As far as
• 40:09
  Speaker 6: I'm concerned.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: The other two aren't even named Hank, right? They're not.
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: There were two other ones?
• 40:15
  Speaker 14: For marketing purposes, yes, yes, they are.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: They're not even named Hank.
• 40:19
  Speaker 10: Hank.
• 40:20
  Speaker 6: Three is Sheldon, I think.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was thinking Eugene, but I think it is Sheldon.
• 40:26
  Speaker 16: No wonder nobody wants to come see.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: I saw the show at the Mercury last year. I
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: enjoyed it. He played for like four and a half
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: hours or something. It was ridiculous.
• 40:35
  Speaker 16: I haven't listened to much of Three. I was not
• 40:37
  Speaker 16: big on Junior.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: I like part of his music.
• 40:41
  Speaker 14: I think he started, even Junior started a little better
• 40:45
  Speaker 14: and then just bought into the whole.
• 40:48
  Speaker 16: redneck yeah thing that got on board.
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: Are you ready for some football yeah.
• 40:52
  Speaker 16: That's that's where i think i was just like i'm
• 40:55
  Speaker 16: out now i'm.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: Okay i'm not much of a junior fan.
• 40:57
  Speaker 14: You know i never never want racism thing he's not
• 41:02
  Speaker 14: a fun guy really but yeah i i feel like
• 41:07
  Speaker 14: he his really old stuff is closer to his dad
• 41:10
  Speaker 14: and then like the more He gets the hat and
• 41:12
  Speaker 14: the beard and the leather.
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: There were also some pretty tasteless overdubs and videos of
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: his dad, like archival footage that he would splice into
• 41:22
  Speaker 6: his live show that he was doing in the 70s.
• 41:26
  Speaker 6: Just cringeworthy.
• 41:27
  Speaker 16: And then he did a duet with Nat King Cole. No, wait,
• 41:31
  Speaker 16: that wasn't him at all. There was a lot of
• 41:33
  Speaker 16: feeding off their parents for a while there in the
• 41:36
  Speaker 16: music industry. All right, well, enough of Junior. Let's go
• 41:42
  Speaker 16: back to Wes.
• 41:42
  Speaker 14: So was everybody a Wes Anderson fan always as you
• 41:46
  Speaker 14: came into these?
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.

  Speaker 16: What was your introduction.
• 41:51
  Speaker 9: To him, I guess?
• 41:52
  Speaker 14: I think last year I asked everybody what their first
• 41:54
  Speaker 14: Wes Anderson movie was that they remember.
• 41:56
  Speaker 6: Royal Tenenbaums for me.
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, me too.
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: And then Life Aquatic, I guess.
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: My sister was.
• 42:05
  Speaker 17: Hip for like a year in high school or something
• 42:08
  Speaker 17: and she watched royal tenenbaums yeah and for like maybe

  Speaker 17: grade and had no idea what it was about but
• 42:23
  Speaker 17: like royal tenenbaums especially was like really aesthetically pleasing like
• 42:28
  Speaker 17: the you know every all their costumes are interesting.
• 42:31
  Speaker 10: And uh.
• 42:33
  Speaker 14: The whole set i think that's really when he sort
• 42:35
  Speaker 14: of found himself like.
• 42:37
  Speaker 16: I think because that's the thing i think i saw
• 42:39
  Speaker 16: bottle rocket like the first real you know full-length feature.
• 42:43
  Speaker 14: He did yeah but i didn't again at that point
• 42:46
  Speaker 14: there was no wes anderson so i just sort of
• 42:47
  Speaker 14: watched it as a movie and it was like oh
• 42:49
  Speaker 14: that was pretty good and like you know both of
• 42:50
  Speaker 14: those guys were still kind of new actors and like
• 42:53
  Speaker 14: i just sort of entered in as he did and
• 42:55
  Speaker 14: like it wasn't until like i think i missed rushmore
• 42:58
  Speaker 14: at the time too so it was like I remember
• 43:00
  Speaker 14: seeing Royal Tenenbaums and going, okay, this is sort of
• 43:03
  Speaker 14: its own thing.
• 43:04
  Speaker 16: And I think from.
• 43:05
  Speaker 14: That point on, like, everything sort of just gelled into
• 43:08
  Speaker 14: this Wes Anderson thing.
• 43:10
  Speaker 16: Like, now they all kind of hit.
• 43:12
  Speaker 14: But I think he's almost getting a little better about
• 43:15
  Speaker 14: turning into it. So I think the Grand Budapest Hotel
• 43:18
  Speaker 14: is sort of like the first time he's broken out
• 43:21
  Speaker 14: of that a little bit.
• 43:22
  Speaker 16: Like, he still has the aesthetic. He still has the quirkiness.
• 43:25
  Speaker 16: But I think he's sort of honing in on the
• 43:27
  Speaker 16: characters a little better now.
• 43:28
  Speaker 21: So.
• 43:29
  Speaker 14: I think he's still kind of growing as an artist.
• 43:32
  Speaker 14: But yeah, he found his stride, I think, from Royal
• 43:35
  Speaker 14: Tenenbaums on.
• 43:36
  Speaker 6: I think what he's going to do next is he's
• 43:38
  Speaker 6: going to try and do a movie that is not
• 43:40
  Speaker 6: about moneyed white people and their problems. Or he's going
• 43:45
  Speaker 6: to step out of that rich white people perspective zone.
• 43:49
  Speaker 16: He almost did with Wilderness Animals.
• 43:53
  Speaker 14: That was the most, I guess, which I thought was
• 43:55
  Speaker 14: kind of amazing for the kind of filmmaker he was
• 43:58
  Speaker 14: to like, switch up and do an entirely different medium
• 44:02
  Speaker 14: and do like a totally different style and yet still
• 44:04
  Speaker 14: his own weird quirky thing.
• 44:06
  Speaker 16: So yeah, I give him credit for being pretty adventurous.
• 44:09
  Speaker 14: It'd be nice to see him do something really hard
• 44:13
  Speaker 14: left turn.
• 44:14
  Speaker 16: Just go do an action movie or something. Which there's
• 44:17
  Speaker 16: a little element of that in Grand Budapest.
• 44:19
  Speaker 6: I mean, he can do that.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: Give Bruce Willis on the cast.
• 44:24
  Speaker 16: Well, he's already done that.
• 44:25
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 44:27
  Speaker 16: So yeah, he's already friends with Bruce. Yeah, he can
• 44:30
  Speaker 16: do this. He can do this.
• 44:32
  Speaker 6: I did see Moonrise Kingdom. I've cried several times.
• 44:36
  Speaker 16: Again, it's so well put together.
• 44:38
  Speaker 6: If that makes a fan, then I'm... It's so well orchestrated.
• 44:41
  Speaker 16: Like all of his stuff. Just visually and musically. Did
• 44:46
  Speaker 16: you notice coming in?
• 44:47
  Speaker 14: Because it's funny, I don't think I paid as much
• 44:49
  Speaker 14: attention to the music until she put this festival together
• 44:53
  Speaker 14: last year.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: And I went, Oh, yeah.
• 44:55
  Speaker 14: He's so obviously catering everything to music.
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: So, I don't know.
• 44:59
  Speaker 14: Do you remember noticing that as you watched him before
• 45:02
  Speaker 14: this event happened?
• 45:04
  Speaker 6: Yes, but only in that a lot of his imagery
• 45:08
  Speaker 6: and costumes and sort of light filters are very evocative
• 45:13
  Speaker 6: of the 1970s aesthetic that we mentioned earlier. And those songs,
• 45:19
  Speaker 6: a lot of them being from that era, just lend
• 45:21
  Speaker 6: themselves to that.
• 45:22
  Speaker 16: That's definitely his.
• 45:24
  Speaker 6: favorite area to pull from.
• 45:27
  Speaker 17: I was kind of surprised by a lot of his
• 45:30
  Speaker 17: song choice. Actually, when I was looking at the list,
• 45:33
  Speaker 17: I expected it to be more in left field and
• 45:38
  Speaker 17: was curious how I didn't notice the Beach Boys song,
• 45:41
  Speaker 17: I Get Around, what movie that popped up in.
• 45:44
  Speaker 14: Once again, this is Nellie Pearl with I Get Around
• 45:47
  Speaker 14: from the Fantastic Mr.
• 45:48
  Speaker 11: Fox.
• 45:48
  Speaker 21: I Get Around I Get Around I Get Around.
• 46:06
  Speaker 25: I'm getting buzzed driving up and down the same old street.
• 46:09
  Speaker 25: I gotta find a new place where the kids are hidden.
• 46:16
  Speaker 25: My buddies and me are getting real well known. Yeah,
• 46:19
  Speaker 25: the bad guys know it so they leave us alone.

  Speaker 3: at the pier by way of the Green Line bus.

• 53:41
  Speaker 5: These days These days.
• 53:50

• 54:02
  Speaker 8: And I wonder if I'll see another high. I don't
• 54:27
  Speaker 8: think I'll risk another these days These days.

  Speaker 20: life that I have made it so, it's just that
• 54:54
  Speaker 20: I've been losing.
• 54:59
  Speaker 15: So long.
• 55:10
  Speaker 8: I've stopped my dreaming. I won't do too much.
• 55:18
  Speaker 6: Dreaming these days.
• 55:22
  Speaker 15: These days.
• 55:28
  Speaker 8: These days I sit on cornerstones and count the times

  Speaker 8: in quarter tones to tell. Please don't confront.

  Speaker 15: Welcome to Movie Meltdown, in a world of total darkness. Hey,
• 56:57
  Speaker 15: you guys, this is a.
• 57:00
  Speaker 21: King song.
• 57:06
  Speaker 5: Hey, you guys, this is a King song.
• 57:09
  Speaker 31: This time tomorrow, where will we be?
• 57:17
  Speaker 29: On a spaceship somewhere, sailing across an empty sea.
• 57:28
  Speaker 31: This time tomorrow, where will we go?
• 57:35
  Speaker 15: Will we still be here?
• 57:38
  Speaker 29: Watching an in-flight movie show.
• 57:42
  Speaker 23: I leave the sun behind me. And I watch the
• 57:50
  Speaker 23: clouds as they sadly pass me by.
• 57:55
  Speaker 15: Seven miles below me.
• 57:57
  Speaker 29: I can see the world and it ain't so big out.
• 58:14
  Speaker 29: I don't know where I'm going, I don't want to.
• 58:19
  Speaker 5: See me I see the world in a lonely, looking on.
• 59:00
  Speaker 33: And the worst about us, they sadly pass me by.
• 59:07
  Speaker 33: And the perpetual motion and the.
• 59:11
  Speaker 34: World below doesn't matter much to me.
• 59:18
  Speaker 5: There's time tomorrow where.
• 59:23
  Speaker 7: We will be on a spaceship somewhere sailing.
• 59:29
  Speaker 30: Across This town tomorrow What will we be?
• 59:43
  Speaker 34: This town tomorrow What will we see? This town tomorrow
• 59:53
  Speaker 34: This town.
• 59:56
  Speaker 15: Tomorrow Thank you guys so much!
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 14: And that was This Time Tomorrow, as mentioned at Kink's song,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 14: originally from the Darjeeling Limited soundtrack. I had to go
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 14: back and look at some of them. I was like,
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 14: I don't know that I remember that one. And then
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 14: I'm like, where was Jumpin' Jack Flash? And a lot
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 14: of these are.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 16: Like, I'm trying to pinpoint.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 14: Because then he got really specific as he gets to aquatic.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 14: Everything is tailored to a very specific thing. He kind
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 14: of did that with Moonrise Kingdom again. He's working in
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 14: that traditional music.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 17: It seems like he likes to do that with the
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 17: costumes and the sets and everything. I think in my
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 17: research for the festival, I read something about an article
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 17: by one of the girls that helped design all the costumes,
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 17: and he was like, I want you to make everything.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 17: He's like, don't go buy anything. Make it all yourself.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 14: Yeah, especially this last movie, like, Because he just creates
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 14: his own world. Like, the fact that it exists in
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 14: its own, like, their own countries and their own, like,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 14: war going on.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 16: And, like, it's, I think you would have to just
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 16: start from scratch to be that, you know.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 16: Coming up with everything out of nothing there. What was
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 16: the last movie that he made? The Grand Budapest Hotel.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 12: That was the last one?
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 6: Because I remember, I think that that came out the
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 6: weekend of the first West Fest.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 14: Yeah, I think it just came out, but nobody even
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 14: showed up in costume because they hadn't seen it yet.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 16: Nobody was prepared for it.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 14: Where it was funny, that was just between these two years.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 14: I think that's a big difference now is watching how
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 14: many versions of the girlfriend, like the one with the birthmark.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 16: There were so many of them.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 14: In one year's time, last year it was nothing but
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 14: Gwyneth Paltrow. You saw a lot of Owen Wilson and
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 14: Luke Wilson. Yeah, you saw a lot of Luke Wilson
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 14: last time.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 6: A friend of mine's mom showed up in a costume
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 6: that I later found out was like a hippie kind
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 6: of new agey mom.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 20: Nice.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 6: Which I totally did not pick up on at first
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 6: because she is in fact a kind of hippie new
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 6: agey mom.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 16: So she just came as herself. Which I guess works
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 16: for Wes Anderson.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 6: A lot of stuff went over my head.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 14: But yeah, it's funny that I guess that's an aspect
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 14: to it now, that as his movies continue to grow,
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 14: there will be all these new weird costumes and.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 16: Song choices and all that stuff that comes along.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 14: But that one kind of took over this year, the
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 14: girlfriend with the birthmark. There were like 12 or 13
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 14: of those wandering around that night for such a new
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 14: movie entry. That was kind of cool to see people
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 14: latch onto that one. As far as other songs, aside
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 14: from your bands, did you get a chance to see
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 14: anybody else? And were there other songs, specific performances you liked.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 6: Throughout the night? I showed up late again to that.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 6: I have a problem with tardiness that I'm okay with
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 6: talking about. I do have a great excuse, though. My
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 6: wife is about nine months pregnant right now.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 16: That's a pretty good excuse. You have to bring the
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 16: baby as proof, though.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: I do anything.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 23: I do.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 16: You have to come in holding the baby as you're
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 16: like hall pass.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 6: I will say, though, that Nellie Pearl's performance was the
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 6: most talked about easily of the evening.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 16: They did kind of raise the bar a little bit.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 6: I really appreciated Oscar and the picket lines on stage
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 6: banter that sort of blurred the line between stage performance
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 6: and perhaps while you were there.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 14: It was sort of, banter is a good thing, because
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 14: I was like, I'm not sure if he was like,
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 14: he wasn't really doing jokes as much.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 16: He was just sort of buffering the setup from one
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 16: band to the next.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 6: With a kind of monotone.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 16: Yeah, well, Wes Anderson-y. But yeah, it kind of was
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 16: fun to mix in, in between the songs.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 9: All right. Christo. Christo only wears underwear made of mature... inorganic,
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 9: free-range platypus hide. Well, I'll tell you what. In my underwear,
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 9: I've gotten a lot of platypus in my time, so
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 9: I'm not impressed.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 17: They ask us for information to do that, for him
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 17: to make jokes. We all came up with a bunch
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 17: of really weird shit. He took the most, I don't
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 17: know if it was him or Heather or who did
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 17: it exactly, who made the note cards, but like, I.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 6: Think he did.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 17: I saw him working on it on that stage. All
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 17: he said for me was that I was born in
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 17: a taxi cab in San Antonio. And I was like,
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 17: that was like, the first of all, that's not even true.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 17: Five that got progressively weirder and weirder.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 6: Is that true? Were you born in a taxi cab?
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: No, not at all. That's why it wasn't funny.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 17: Because it was like, that was like, is he born
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 17: in a taxi cab? And then the next sentence was
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 17: some real weird shit. They're like, this is all this
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 17: made up. And no, he didn't read the.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: Rest of it.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 17: So people were like, were you actually born in a
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 17: taxi cab in San Antonio?
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah. Like I just asked you.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 16: It's fact now.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 17: I got that from Tom Waits anyway. Tom Waits said
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 17: that on Letterman in the 80s. I was born in
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 17: a taxicab in.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 16: Terre Haute, Indiana. I was born in a taxicab in Indiana.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 6: Always some obscure Midwestern.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Terre Haute, Indiana. I was like, no, he was not.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 6: They pulled our description from our Twitter account. That's trouble already.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 6: We are Quiet Hollers, our occult gang band. These are
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 6: separated by slashes, and Oscar and I had a brief
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 6: discussion before he was to read these note cards where
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 6: he was clarifying what I meant by that. And I
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 6: was trying to explain that you say it like it's
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 6: one word, like a cult gang band. And of course,
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 6: so he looks at me real weird and he goes,
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 6: cult gang band? I said cult gang band. Of course
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 6: we get on stage and Oscar says, quiet hollers are
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 6: a cult.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 9: Bang!
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 4: Bang!
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: He showed up with bandanas.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 6: No, you couldn't have put a larger pause in between
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 6: those words. And just to clarify, we are not any
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 6: kind of religious cult or violent street gang.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 16: I assumed you were like Bloods or Crips or something.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 2: I thought you were.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 6: I prefer not to take sides in that particular conflict.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 14: I figured half the band would have one bandana, half
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 14: the other. And then by the end of the set,
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 14: you'd have to fight it out.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 16: Did not happen that night.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 6: We are a Germantown-based band. And the mustache street wars
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 6: of 2006 still rage on to this day.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 16: It's a scary neighborhood. You don't want to mess around
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 16: in Germantown.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 17: To answer that original question, I think I saw all
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 17: the acts. I liked Apple Latin.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: They were good. I heard that they didn't even really practice.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: Those guys don't have to. I'd seen them before.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 6: They were pretty impressive.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 17: They're pretty talented dudes. I had actually seen Jose. That
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 17: was the first time I'd seen Appalachian. I saw Jose,
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 17: their bass player, with a four-piece instrumental jazz, like a hardcore,
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 17: cool jazz.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: Group out of the Faulkner Gallery.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 17: And that kid was throwing down hard on that upright bass.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 17: I'd never seen anybody play like that around here. And
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 17: so when I found out he was an Appalachian, I
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 17: thought that was quite a treat. And it makes sense
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 17: that they didn't have to practice.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 14: I like what they were doing too though because especially
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 14: going into this it's like you kind of end up
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 14: pulling from the same group of songs so it's like
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 14: especially if you do two three if you keep doing
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 14: different years you're like how are we going to do
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 14: it that isn't like what they did last year but
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 14: like their style is so different and so original that
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 14: like listening to them do me and Julio down by
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 14: the schoolyard was like awesome like it adds this whole
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 14: new spin on it that like it gives it a
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 14: very different beat a very different style that I I
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 14: really like that one and There's a couple other ones
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 14: they did that were really good.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 6: The Latin music to 1970s kind of classic rock songs.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 6: For me, the first time that I'd kind of seen
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 6: or heard that particular pairing of different styles was the
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 6: Gypsy Kings cover of Hotel California that was used in
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 6: the Coen Brothers movie, The Big Lebowski.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 16: Other filmmakers. There were some echoes of that for me.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 6: But of course there are, you know. not indistinguishable similarities
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 6: between those two filmmaking styles.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 14: So I was thinking there another one that has such
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 14: a attachment to music and finding a way to work
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 14: it in originally.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 16: And it's, yeah, it's pretty cool.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 16: Was there anything else from that night? You guys wanted to.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: Uh, great job.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 14: Thanks.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 2: That's killed it. I've never seen y'all perform before. That
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: was the first time.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 6: We do it all the time.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 16: More than you're comfortable with?
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 19: No.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: All the time. No, I'd seen you guys perform before.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: I saw you at the hoot. At a spring hoot,
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: I think. A hoot nanny. Or maybe a fall harvest
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: hoot or something like that. That's... It might have been like.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 6: You're saying the word hootenanny. It's ringing a bell in
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 6: my head.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: It's the mighty kindness thing they do down on the waterfront. Oh, yeah.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: I think that was the first time I met you.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: I think we met there. That was a spring one.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 6: I want to say 2000... Spring 2014? It might have been.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 19: Yeah.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 6: It was about a year ago.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: I think Blunt and Honey played that. I think that's
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: why I was there. That's right. I remember.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 14: Well, we covered a little of your background, Chadwick. Do
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 14: you want to give people a little like how the
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 14: band came to be?
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, do I?
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 16: It sounds like trouble. Do I?
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 6: I am so prepared. No, I put out, I started, well,
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 6: I played in punk bands from the time that I
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 6: was 16 or 17 and dropped out of high school
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 6: to do that. And then I did that for like
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 6: a while.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 16: I think I remember seeing you back in the day.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 6: And straight-laced.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 21: True.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 6: I got a straight-laced shout-out from the guy on stage.
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 16: I know I've been to a couple of those.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 6: I kind of covered my face.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 16: I think you know Phillip.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, of course.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 14: I've roped him into the show a few times. He's
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 14: a semi-regular, but I've been friends with Phillip forever. I
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 14: used to go see his bands. I remember you from
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 14: different stuff, but now it took a very different turn
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 14: as I came to know the Quiet Hollow.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 6: I said I got really into that punk. touring punk
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 6: band touring drinking mischief kind of life and that you
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 6: know very quickly took its toll like it does that
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 6: will burn it so i got i got real real
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 6: depressed and decided i was going to make this like
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 6: dark kind of alt country solo record and so i
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 6: did that with like very little preparation and forethought and
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 6: it ended up being a thing that that warranted people
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 6: wanting to see it at least enough for me to
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 6: have a band.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 6: And so I started kind of picking up guys from,
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 6: from that scene and be like, Hey, well, do you
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 6: want to play in this weird, like depressing Americana band
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 6: with me?
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 16: And they're like, yeah, I guess so.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 6: So we, you know, gradually started picking up. Now we're
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 6: a five piece band now, you know, it's, it's crowded
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 6: in the van. But, yeah, it just sort of, you know,
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 6: it was just Shadwick Wilde, and then it was Shadwick
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 6: Wilde and the Quiet Hollers, which was this massively too
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 6: long kind of panoply of names.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 16: Depends on how much of the poster you want to cover.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 6: And so now it's just Quiet Hollers. And I just
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 6: want to go on the record and officially say there
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 6: is no the.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 14: I was just going to ask. I was like, did
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 14: you have to pin that down? Because it becomes a
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 14: thing with that. It's in our bio now that there's
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 14: no the. that was i had to take a stance
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 14: my favorite one was actually with the i love the
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 14: rachels but like the fact that they would just go
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 14: back and forth some albums they would put out with
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 14: the sometimes they wouldn't i was like that's kind of amazing.
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 16: That they're like we don't care like we'll use it
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 16: we won't what do we.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 17: Care buck uh buck ellens did that with the buckaroos
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 17: too i spelled it b-u-c-k-e and b-u-c-k-a on different records too.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 6: R-e-w-r-double-o i don't know.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 14: Well, I guess to round it out more or less,
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 14: what was, of your own sets, what was like your
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 14: favorite to play?
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 16: If we haven't already mentioned it.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 6: We did get to play a couple of our own songs.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 6: But I will say the most fun was that Ramone
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 6: song that I mentioned earlier, Judy is a Punk. Because
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 6: we don't ever get to play like that fast power
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 6: chord kind of silly stuff.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 6: And that was, for me, immensely enjoyable on a visceral level.
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 24: Y'all heard about Judy? Check in for.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 18: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 5: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 15: 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29,
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 15: .
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 13: .
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 21: .
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah. Dirty in the mud, dirty in the wood,
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 5: we've got to get out of here, we've got to
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 5: get out of here. And oh, I don't know why, oh,
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 5: I don't know why, but it's still alive.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 18: Oh yeah, it's still alive, oh yeah, it's still alive,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 18: oh yeah, it's.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 17: Still alive, oh yeah.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: I would have to say needle in the hay was
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: my personal favorite. We enjoyed all of them. We really did.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 17: Um, but that was, that was the most fun. We, uh,
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 17: our drummer plays in the local villains and like, they're
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 17: pretty hard rock band. And I'm always like, why don't you, uh,
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 17: you know, like use these different sticks or like, you
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 17: don't have to use those brushes.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: Like, why don't you do this? And he's like, I
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: don't play the drums that hard in this band. It
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: was like, I'll get you to play the drums that
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 2: hard in this band. I have the exact opposite problem.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah? Like, I want to get Nick to use brushes,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 6: and he always wants.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 9: To beat the crap out of me.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 6: Maybe we should trade.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm good.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 17: I'm good with my drummer.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 14: That should be like a theme night, where everybody just
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 14: sort of swaps out different people and, like, see how
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 14: it goes.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 16: It'd have to be interesting, if nothing else.
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 2: It certainly would.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 16: I think so.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 6: Oh, drummers are interchangeable, anyway. You don't need a new one,
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 6: you just order a pizza.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 14: Bass players you don't even give them a name right
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 14: they just like show up and if they bring their
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 14: bass you're like all right stand over.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 6: There what do you call a guy that hangs out
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 6: with musicians bass player it's either a bass player or
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 6: a drummer whichever person you're trying to insult at the time.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 16: I feel like the drummers at least have so much.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 14: Equipment you have to acknowledge them but like ben is
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 14: a bass player like we would always constantly be like
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 14: yeah the bass players like they always get the the
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 14: rough end.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 6: You know what you call a bass player that just
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 6: broke up with his girlfriend what homeless.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 16: How long can we go with these? Do we have
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 16: a whole set?
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 6: Do you know how you can tell if a drum
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 6: riser is level? The drool comes out of both sides
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 6: of the drummer's mouth.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 16: Nice.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 6: Okay, I'm finished. I love my drummer and my bass player.
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 6: Please don't quit the band, guys.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 14: I think once you enter into those roles, you know
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 14: your role in the band.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 16: You have to hold down the fort. You're the rhythm section, dammit.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 16: You know how it goes.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 6: It is unfair that there aren't as many of those
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 6: jokes about guitar players.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 16: Yeah. I'll tell you what, though.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 6: Guitarists really have it the roughest of anybody.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 16: They kind of do.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 6: When it comes to being the butt of jokes.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 16: There's no holding your head high when.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 10: You play guitar.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 17: The thing is that you don't have to be a guitarist,
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 17: so that's your own fault.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 6: Some people have to.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: Contractually.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 16: Born with a keytar in your hand. There's no fighting it, man.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 6: People either contractually or spiritually... absolutely have to be keytarists.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 2: I don't know any keytarists.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 6: Not so much in this decade.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 17: I do know one keytarist. There was a band called
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 17: Lotus Blake that played in town.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 16: That had a keytarist. I know that name.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 17: That guy plays in another band now. He's like a tall,
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 17: really tall blonde guy.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: I don't think he plays keytar. I think I saw
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 2: him with another band though.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 16: I want to.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 6: Say, is that Chase?
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 16: Chase?
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 6: He played bass for the band with the name that
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 6: I can't remember.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 17: I don't know what his name is. I remember the
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 17: first time he introduced himself, he spoke with an Australian
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 17: accent to me and my friends.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 12: That is weird.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 2: And I totally tried to, like, play it off, and then, like,
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: partway through, forgot or something, and then tried to jump
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 2: back on it. We're like, no, you're not Australian. He's like,
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: what the hell?
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 6: I've been living here a long time.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 23: Yeah.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 16: Sadly, I've heard that story before from another member of
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 16: the cast. We have a weird town. With multiple people
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 16: pretending that they're from another country when they aren't.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 6: I've done it before.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 16: Another planet.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 6: My family is Dutch, and I actually did live there
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 6: for a couple years.
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 16: I was going to say, where were you born?
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 21: No.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 16: You can at least claim this country.
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 6: But I'm eligible for dual citizenship.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 16: You should cash in on that, though. They probably have
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 16: good health care there.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 6: They have, like, really enough people over there.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: They, like, pay you to go to college?
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 16: Yeah. I saw a hospital.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 2: In Louisville that has a bank in it. We got
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 2: that going for us.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 23: St.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 17: Matthew's Baptist Health or something like that has Republic Bank
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 17: on the sign, too.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: I was like, a hospital has a bank inside.
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 6: I think that hospital also has a McDonald's in it.
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: The Children's Hospital in Indianapolis has a McDonald's.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 14: The Co-Serve in here did, yeah. Unless they came to
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 14: their senses and took it out.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: That is just some straight fucked up shit. That's what
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 2: that is.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 6: Business there.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 16: You're already dying, kid. Here, have some french fries.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 2: That's weird.
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 6: Have a little diabetes. to go with your brain cancer.
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 16: Can we put a milkshake in your drip? I think
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 16: that's what you're missing here. Well, if nothing else.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 16: If nothing else, where can people find both of these bands?
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 16: What's the best place to look for you? I'm assuming
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 16: on the internets.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 6: We have a new video that you should go check out.
