Glow Party Chaos And Camp Lore

SPEAKER_00 3:24

Dude, okay. We went to a glow party till four o'clock in the morning.

SPEAKER_07 3:27

Get away.

SPEAKER_00 3:28

Well, okay. Well, no, yeah. I did.

SPEAKER_07 3:33

No.

SPEAKER_00 3:34

No, so like, okay, around 3:30 at the glow party, I'm like, we're slut, we're slut, but we're not like shaming. Like, we're not going to be able to do that.

SPEAKER_07 3:40

No, no, we were embracing our whorness. It was great.

SPEAKER_00 3:43

And I was yelling it, wasn't I?

SPEAKER_07 3:45

You were yelling so many times.

SPEAKER_00 3:47

Evidence is all over this whole camp.

SPEAKER_07 3:49

Oh, you were yelling about some coming and like, yeah, yeah, you made a whole chorus on this EDM song about coming. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 4:00

I did.

SPEAKER_07 4:00

Yeah, you did.

SPEAKER_01 4:02

I didn't have my phone on it. In my own world and dancing. Yeah. I don't record everything, record shit.

SPEAKER_00 4:07

So, I mean, that's why we're documenting this right now. Is that is that what we're doing right now? We're trying to document things that way we can go back and be like, yeah, Jesse, you did this.

SPEAKER_07 4:14

But for the most part, I I don't really focus on what you're doing, but when you're yelling above like all the other however many people were there talking of singing about some coming and stuff.

SPEAKER_00 4:25

Yeah, he's the cut of bucket. I remember naming a five-gallon bucket Larry Flint. Yes, he did.

SPEAKER_06 4:34

It was the Home Depot bucket.

SPEAKER_00 4:38

So there's a five-gallon bucket at the Glow Party. Everybody had to dance around it. And they were like all shaking their ass, but like dancing around this fucking.

SPEAKER_07 4:46

And like stepping over it. And they had a little twerk every time they stepped over it.

SPEAKER_00 4:50

It had a weird white substance in it.

SPEAKER_01 4:52

I think it was their grease trap.

SPEAKER_00 4:53

I think that's where they were.

SPEAKER_01 4:55

So they have like a full setup of food.

SPEAKER_07 4:59

It was Larry Flint's body juice that fell off when they twerked over it.

SPEAKER_00 5:03

It's kind of like popcorn Sutton's moonshine. Whatever's left, that's Larry Flint's jizz in that bucket.

SPEAKER_01 5:09

That's what's left.

SPEAKER_00 5:10

Yeah. That is the only thing left.

SPEAKER_01 5:13

Ophelia.

SPEAKER_00 5:15

Lindsay has stories.

Feeling Old And Mother’s Day

SPEAKER_01 5:16

We went to fucking, we're at Rockville. So what made you feel old this week?

SPEAKER_00 5:21

Nothing can make me feel old, Lindsay. I'm at fucking Rockville, the best place on earth. I don't feel old. I'm tired, but I don't feel old. We're allowed to feel tired, right? I mean, and moist, um, like as you say.

SPEAKER_01 5:32

We're not gonna feel really old till Tuesday. That's when that shit's gonna set in. But right now, we're on adrenaline and good vibes. What made you feel old this week?

SPEAKER_07 5:41

My daughter mothering me makes me feel old. Like I'm 90, and the the old folks home have to be told what to do when we're gonna go.

SPEAKER_00 5:49

And by the way, we're recording this on Mother's Day.

SPEAKER_01 5:52

Yeah. So happy post-Mother's Day.

SPEAKER_00 5:54

No, this is a reminder when you hear this, just fucking tell them. If there's somebody that you feel like that is a mother to you, tell them happy Mother's Day, and thank you. Just tell them. Yeah, that part too. Either way, if some if there's a female that stepped up or a male, yeah, you can have a male mother, right?

SPEAKER_07 6:14

I mean, I feel like I mean there's a lot of single moms that their kids tell them happy Father's Day because they did it both. Why can't the same be for men? There we go.

SPEAKER_01 6:22

And so there are a lot of very amazing children that have two dads.

SPEAKER_00 6:28

Yeah. So nothing wrong with that.

SPEAKER_01 6:30

One of them is or both, or also the mom.

SPEAKER_00 6:32

Love it.

SPEAKER_01 6:33

Yes.

SPEAKER_07 6:33

Yeah, so happy parent day. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 6:38

Maybe they should just make two parent days a year. That would be fun.

SPEAKER_07 6:41

Yeah, I mean, you know, it's awful to be celebrated just as a mother, though, but also there is Father's Day. But what about the ones that ride the line between or don't? There should be one more day. It's Happy Parents' Day.

SPEAKER_01 6:53

They should be a Parents' Day that's just fur babies are included because my bestie over in Jacksonville has my niece and nephew pups.

SPEAKER_00 7:03

So they take as much care as if you're a real good parent to animals. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 7:12

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 7:12

Take them for a while.

SPEAKER_07 7:13

Animals are easier to raise children, honestly. But you know, shout out to Aaron because I love him. Yes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 7:20

Yeah. We're here. Lindsay's got stories. I am talking into a tampon, by the way. A crocheted.

SPEAKER_07 7:27

It's a sperm.

SPEAKER_00 7:28

It's a crocheted sperm.

SPEAKER_07 7:29

It's a spermie.

SPEAKER_00 7:30

This is Larry Flint's.

SPEAKER_07 7:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 7:32

Okay, I'm talking to Larry Flint today.

SPEAKER_07 7:36

It's just a big giant sperm blob hanging off of his microphone.

SPEAKER_00 7:40

Crochet sperm blob from Larry Flint.

Crowd Etiquette And Rail Rage

SPEAKER_01 7:43

I do have something that made me feel old. You do. For the past few rock bills, I have been blessed with um starting, you know, Shark Week. And normal, unshark week me is like fill in the vibes, don't give a fuck if anybody gets in front of me, bumps me, whatever. I've had a little rage. Despite all your rage?

SPEAKER_02 8:05

You're still just around me.

SPEAKER_01 8:06

Not in a cage. But like people, there's in particular, while we were waiting for Avatar last night watching Simple Plane, there was one chick, I don't know how, but she came around three times and got in front of me. Like, I don't know what she was doing. If she was making a circle, it looked like she was trying to find somebody, which I understand, but like every time just bum. Really? And you motherfuckers that bum rush to the front after we have been waiting in the sweat and the heat.

SPEAKER_00 8:44

I hate you. You smell a you you come in, you smell like um flowers when you when the set starts.

SPEAKER_01 8:53

Fuck you. Because that's not fair. We've been sitting there waiting and sweating and for hours, dying. What?

SPEAKER_07 9:02

You know damn well if you were the one rushing up, you would be at the opposite end of this opinion. I think it's too much.

SPEAKER_01 9:08

But I never am. I never am the one rushing up. No, I'm not talking about just making your way up.

SPEAKER_07 9:14

Oh, because I will go all up in that bitch. Oh, I just got here, the band just started, let me get to the rail.

SPEAKER_00 9:18

And they run up and push you like they push you like they don't care.

SPEAKER_07 9:22

I did push somebody the other day, and I got in trouble by my daughter. She shamed me for getting to the rail before this kid, and I kind of pushed him out of the way as we were both on the way. But I was waiting for the two people to leave. I knew they were gonna leave.

SPEAKER_01 9:33

And it's just like you were waiting, still waiting. But I got in trouble.

SPEAKER_00 9:36

You got in trouble by your daughter.

SPEAKER_01 9:38

I am particularly talking about last night, waiting for Lamb of God. We were in the Hucklebook, as Jesse will call it. Where are you know, we had been dried out, but we were starting to sweat from the body heat, everything, and this line of fuckers, like eight of them, just and there's always the one in the texting.

SPEAKER_00 10:00

Are they on their phone?

SPEAKER_01 10:02

That, yeah, that, yes. So I felt like a little boomer last night. A little bit. Yeah. I felt a little boomeress.

SPEAKER_00 10:08

They smell like they just left the hotel. They're showing up at the festival at like 9 p.m.

SPEAKER_07 10:13

Did they do like you said a line? Did they do a red rover line for their arms linked, or did they just like bowl every time?

SPEAKER_01 10:18

No, they were it was one guy literally shoved all of us out of the way and the rest just followed.

SPEAKER_00 10:23

And I was like, if it's one or two, that's fine. But when it's like 30 and you're like, fuck, we like okay. I mean, I don't mind you moving on, but when they when they they bust in front of you, then they stop and stand right there. That that's a thing. I don't know. I mean, uh we're good. We're good with communicating and doing things in the in the in the crowd of the 20,000s and all the stuff.

SPEAKER_01 10:46

And we understand if you're trying to find your people, we've done that.

SPEAKER_00 10:49

And live your best life. Yeah, we get it, we get it. But also be respectful when you're doing that, right?

SPEAKER_01 10:54

Don't try and hug us all motherfuckers over.

SPEAKER_00 10:56

We're old as shit and we've already been out there. We're like the troopers of the troops.

Who Is Randy Blythe

SPEAKER_01 11:02

We're they are working overtime. Yeah. But speaking of moving on, we're gonna move on and we're gonna talk about Sir. Well, he's not really a Sir, but we're gonna talk about David Randall Bly today. His last name is not Blythe.

SPEAKER_00 11:18

We've all said Blythe forever with a TH.

SPEAKER_01 11:22

And it is just Bly. Oh, I tell that. I know, I knew I was gonna blow your guys' minds with that. So this is the front man for one of our favorite bands, Lamb of God. And I I yesterday I cried a little bit because I was just so thankful that you know Jesse came into my life. Like I've always loved metal and rock, but you've just brought me so many more bands. And so Jesse introduced me to Lamb of God with the song 11th hour. It was the heaviest shit I had ever heard in my life, and I was hooked. And then when we saw them live on the rail in 2016, I was in, I was hooked, and now our son loves them. Like Lamb of God means a lot to us. So, and Randy went through some shit back in the day, and we wanted to talk about that today. So, Randy was born February 21st, 1971, in Fort Meade, Maryland, and grew up in Franklin, Virginia, which he describes as a tiny redneck paper mill town. He has two brothers, and his brothers and his dad lived with his grandmother for a couple of years when his parents separated, and his mom moved to uh the beach area.

SPEAKER_00 12:43

So I think that's where the surfing and the skateboarding. I know he's kind of punk rock too for a while.

SPEAKER_01 12:48

Oh, yeah, we're gonna talk about that. So he loved his grandmother, though. He learned a lot from her, and he grew up Southern Baptist and realized at a very young age the hypocrisy within religion, and he just he calls it all bullshit. And you know what, Randy? I wish I'd realized that. He said he was around eight when he was just like snap out of it, this is this is garbage, control, yeah, and like we say, fuck religion. So he loved to skateboard, and he loved, and I have this typed in capital letters, punk music. In fact, he says when he heard the sex pistols for the first time, his life was changed.

SPEAKER_00 13:30

Yeah, and and when we say like fuck religion, there's a more organic really feel when you can be like, Okay, I want to have a connection with a creator, right? There's a more real, organic, personal, emotional bond that you can have with having some people will say it's an imaginary friend, but some people will be like there's gotta be something, right?

SPEAKER_07 13:51

I think there's uh a big difference between religion and spirituality. And I think those lines, you know, get they they get skewed and crisscrossed and all that. And I think the problem is organized religion when it's nothing but like fear-based, like either you act right and you do what I say, or you're gonna burn in hell forever.

SPEAKER_00 14:10

By the way, I thought God was forgiving it. Make sure you fill it in the street. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 14:14

Make sure you give us, you know, 10% of your your income while we're out of here. Let's just jack it up to 15% because nobody can afford to buy milk.

SPEAKER_03 14:21

Right. Right.

SPEAKER_07 14:23

And then look at what you're wearing. How dare you, you dirty whore! How dare you come to the Lord's building dress like that?

SPEAKER_01 14:30

And by the way, we just re-released our three-parter on West Mist Three last week, and those boys were persecuted because of how they dressed. So Randy says he even became quite like the snob about punk music and thought that only good punk came from England until he would visit his mom, who lived at the beach, and um this was in Wilmington. Okay, and he was tuned, you know, tuned on to more American punk bands like Black Flag and Bad Brains, and Bad Brains is like his favorite.

SPEAKER_00 15:03

I love it. I love Bad Brains and Black Flag. Yeah, yeah. Silas's favorite band for about a minute.

SPEAKER_01 15:09

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Oh, yeah. When he saw them here, he was turned up. Loved it. Now Randy says that he really didn't fit in at uh public school. So his family sent him to a magnet school for the arts, and then uh he joined his first band called Black Friday. Oh, right. So that was his first little band. It was like garage, you know. Punk rock, I'm sure. Yeah. Yeah. And in 1989, after graduation, he moved to Richmond, mostly because of the killer punk shows, but it was under the guise of going to college. So he went to college there, but he really wanted to move there because of the punk scene.

SPEAKER_00 15:49

When it's this caliber though, Lindsay, I think you uh have to say Richmond, motherfucking Virginia.

SPEAKER_01 15:54

Richmond, motherfucking Virginia.

SPEAKER_00 15:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 15:58

That's how Randy says it. So the music scene was morphing more into metal or what we recognize as metal today. Back then it was just like, let's be weird as possible. Let's figure out all these new cool guitar riffs and shit like that.

SPEAKER_00 16:15

Exactly. And, you know, being original. I get it, yeah.

From Punk Kid To Lamb Of God

SPEAKER_01 16:19

Well, then he joined Steak Hogan, which was changed to Furious George, and then he was in Pig Face, and then he joined Burn the Priest, which would become Lamb of God. Now they changed the name uh because um they didn't really want to be labeled as a satanic band, you know. But during all this time, uh he was in and out of college. He worked as a line cook in restaurants and uh he did some roofing. Then he made it over to Berkeley, hopping on freight trains and squatting, pretty much living as a bum for quite a while.

SPEAKER_00 17:03

Randy does look like a roofer though, doesn't he?

SPEAKER_07 17:05

That was more about hobo than a bum, though. Yeah, because the hobos hopped the trains and do the trailer.

SPEAKER_00 17:11

He's not asking for money, he's just gonna be able to do it.

SPEAKER_01 17:12

Well, when he got to Berkeley, when he got to Berkeley, he was bumming.

SPEAKER_07 17:16

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 17:16

He was bumming and squatting.

SPEAKER_07 17:18

And you know, but he hoboed is living on the street.

SPEAKER_00 17:21

But that's like the the number one way to find yourself, like in humanity, where you're just like doing your things and figuring out life.

SPEAKER_01 17:30

So then he came back to Richmond. That's when he joined Burn the Priest, and this was all because joking around, he kind of would imitate George Fisher, aka corpse grinder really from Cannibal Corpse. And they were like, Oh shit, we like that. Can you can you do that all the time? You know? So, like I already said, Burn the Priest uh turned into Lamb of God, and Randy's friend Mikey, who he had been a squatter with, he helped Burn the Priest record their first album and then helped Lamb of God and so Lamb of God, they start playing a lot of local shows, and this is just a reminder, listeners, that your favorite band was one time a local band. So support local music, yeah, go to the shows, buy the merch because you never know when you can see them on a stage, like we just saw Dave Garden on last night. And Jesse and I and Amanda, we have all watched many bands come up from one o'clock sets where they get to play 20 minutes on the smallest stage to now they have Pyro, they're on the big stage, and that's just it's it's been fun watching the journey. I love it. It's it's such a beautiful journey.

SPEAKER_07 18:54

When they start small and then watch them come up and get the huge and getting to experience that small, intimate time with them when we could. Yeah, oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01 19:06

It's like our little babies we watch grow up. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 19:08

Oh, yeah, there's nothing like seeing a good band and a tiny little dive bar where everybody's all packed in, nud to butt, and like, oh, and then the chilling on the on the sidewalk outside with the artists outside.

SPEAKER_01 19:20

Yeah, but it's fun too. We've been there, yeah. We have been there.

SPEAKER_07 19:24

It's so, and we'll be there again.

SPEAKER_01 19:27

So they did some mini touring, they finally got a bigger record label and blew the fuck up with Ashes of the Wake. So now they're touring with big dogs and other bands of their caliber that gained a lot of popularity around the same time. So they're doing their thing. And Randy says, even though he never aspired to be in a battle band because he was super punk, he absolutely loves writing and performing and is very grateful and blessed to be able to do what he does. It's very great, very humble. Uh, I'm gonna plug some books and interviews that you know I used for this research in a little bit, but like I got to hear Randy Blythe narrate his book for 10 hours in my ears, and it was just it was wonderful. I feel like we're friends now.

SPEAKER_00 20:19

And doing all this, you felt like you've you're really connected personally a little bit more into the the the whole realm spectrum of Randy Blythe. I can I can you you have it written all over your face. We seen them last night, they just absolutely killed it, dude. It was an amazing show.

SPEAKER_07 20:35

The only crowd ever tapped out on was a like crowd. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 20:41

And I didn't that that was my first time seeing them, and I felt like I had made it through war when I got done because it was they were the end of a seven-hour stretch for me on the rail. All day, all day. No bathroom, no food, a little bit, little sips of wool tech because they did the lefty righty stage that year. So we caught so many bands. Was that 10 years ago? It was 10 years ago this month.

SPEAKER_07 21:07

Now, this is what makes me feel old.

SPEAKER_01 21:09

Ten years ago, that was 26 years old.

SPEAKER_00 21:11

So I was overhanging out with Seven Dust, yes? And I come back and literally Yes, talk about the pit. The pit, the mosh pit that opened up when they played the song Redneck. So if you're ever at a Lama God show, know that you're gonna go ham when they fire up Redneck. Just know it. And okay, this pit was a half a mile long and probably a quarter mile wide. Huge pit. It opened, it was the biggest thing I've ever seen. It looked like World War IX.

SPEAKER_07 21:40

It's like the whole like sound siege, like the sound booth in the center of it. Like they circled up.

SPEAKER_00 21:45

Engulfed the whole area.

SPEAKER_01 21:47

Yeah, and I look back area. I look back from the rail, and all you can see is like this tornado of dust. It was one of the most glorious things I'd ever experienced. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:00

I believe in Florida that is the biggest mosh pit uh record.

SPEAKER_01 22:04

We've never seen a bigger, we haven't seen a bigger.

SPEAKER_07 22:08

Nah, not that I can recall.

SPEAKER_00 22:09

And I've watched a lot of videos. I've never seen now. Okay, we watched we watched Alex split the split have the biggest wall of death that I've ever seen, right? But Randy had From Slaughter to Prevail. Yeah. Lamb of God had the biggest pit I've ever seen in my life, and I've been going to shows forever. That was the biggest mosh pit. It looked like carnage. And then, like literally. In the middle of it, that the very end, here comes Lindsay. Completely sooted. She looked like she crawled out of the chimney, dude, from Mary Poppins. Yeah. She was up there chim chimney in the front in the rail.

SPEAKER_07 22:41

At the rail. Amanda done dipped out. Giant mosh pit. Like, no, I was still there for most of it. But and then the giant mosh pit happened behind us. So everybody that was in front of that mosh pit went forward. And we were forward. And so it was a whole big squish, like press, and all the chaotic craziness and crowd surfers and moshin, and everything. It was a lot. And it was beautiful. It was so this. Oh no, this is me describing like my happy place. Exactly. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 23:11

This is fun for us.

SPEAKER_07 23:13

I don't want to be at the grocery store if the there's more than two people in the aisle. I'm not going down that we can be here in the thousands. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 23:20

The big guys running in underwear with somebody else on their shoulders.

unknown 23:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 23:24

In the middle of just moshing and just chaotic, just living their best lives.

SPEAKER_07 23:29

Everywhere. It's amazing.

SPEAKER_01 23:30

It's absolute bliss.

SPEAKER_07 23:31

It is.

SPEAKER_01 23:32

So he shares that most uh most success does not happen overnight, and it's literally a long way to the top. If you want to rock and roll. Like he said, I can't remember, I should have written it down while I was listening. But there was um a front man for another band that was pretty big at the time that literally told him that. Like he's like, it's a long way to fuck the top if you want to rock and roll. And he's like, Did he just fucking quote ACDC to me? Because I uh Randy was just like not having a good day that day. But he made the best of the situation. It's listen to the books that I'm gonna plug. So anyway, he said you have to be very comfortable with being very broke and sleeping on couches or floors or friends' house for a very long time before you get paid. He also does say that he considers himself like a glorified t-shirt salesman because that's where most of their profit comes is the merch sales. So make sure y'all are buying your merch. We've got lots of it.

SPEAKER_07 24:33

Traveling bands, like you don't buy it off of like whatever weird website, go straight to the bands.

SPEAKER_00 24:39

To the table.

SPEAKER_07 24:40

To the table if you're at a show. If you can't make it to a show, go to their website, order it directly from them so they get that, not whatever weird vendor you click on their social media.

SPEAKER_00 24:50

So in that workability, in that workability, when you're traveling the nation, now you've locked in, you're actually wanting to make this a career, you have to find pockets of people that you can trust and be like, okay, I'm going to Virginia Beach, I'm going to Daytona, I'm going to um, you know, any anywhere, Louis, across the country, across the world. Okay, we're coming to LA, we're in a van. We kind of want a place where we can, you know, do do some laundry that, you know, that afternoon before we go to the show or whatever. You have to have that workability and friendship all across the nation.

SPEAKER_07 25:23

Fan support is huge. So if you're a fan support, yeah, yeah, that's what gets these fans to get to the smaller shows to be able to get to the bigger shows and then the bigger ones, and then bam, they're the headliners you love. But they they have to get there.

Prague Arrest And A Fatal Fall

SPEAKER_01 25:37

They have to, and it's a it's a long way. So with the touring and recording life, Randy's alcohol and drug abuse became more and more of a problem, as well as depression. But in 2010, he made the decision to get sober and has been ever since. And the fact that 2010 was 16 years ago also makes me feel a little old. Um, and by the way, he's been married since 2005. So good on him, good on her, because it is not, it has to be a very hard situation to be married to a touring rock star. Like it has to be just something you just have to learn how to, that's a whole lifestyle you have to learn to be comfortable with and adapt it to. Trust has to be there, things like that. Now, on June 27th of 2012, some really crazy shit happened. So Lamb of God is said to play a show in Prague in the Czech Republic. And when Land or when Randy or when the band lands to get off to play the show, he is immediately arrested. And uh, and it's crazy because he was like, he says in his book that they were actually gonna have time to go sightseeing, which is like a rarity for a touring band. They were gonna have time to go sightseeing, looking forward to it. And I mean, he literally gets off the plane and they get him in fucking handcuffs. Um, so that didn't happen. He didn't get to do no sightseeing because two years prior, Lamb of God was playing in Prague, and a 19-year-old named Daniel uh Nosik, I'm hoping I'm saying that right, he was a fan in attending the show, and he jumped on stage, which is something you should never do. And Randy did push him off because there's fire, there's equipment, there's everything, and you just can't jump on stage, you just can't do it.

SPEAKER_00 27:51

No, I mean that you you have to respect their spot when they're up there performing. Uh, we have seen so many controversial things on stage. Yeah, we really have so many. And some of it you're just like, oh my god. But you know, these performers they have a career and they're they're scared. Right. We all know John Lennon, we all know the Beatles, we all know that there could be somebody up there that's gonna do something insane, dying back Darrell. Exactly. And you so you don't know what's gonna happen. This person just bum rushes your stage and then they're up there, right?

SPEAKER_01 28:26

And he's and you know, in the moment, that's probably just what he thought was necessary.

SPEAKER_07 28:34

Or maybe it was just a reaction because you know, when you're listening to music, you get in that vibe, you get in that zone, and you're focused on that. And imagine being on the opposite end of that and performing it and having block out everything around you, and you're in this bubble, and then all of a sudden, something unexpected comes into the bubble, and you're startled and you react.

SPEAKER_01 28:56

Now, Randy does say, you know, in hindsight now and everything is over, that he should have just stopped the show. And um unfortunately, this young man did pass away, and Randy had no idea for the two years later. He had no idea until he gets arrested.

SPEAKER_00 29:16

And deep dive for me, like I've seen the video of what went down and transpired at this. It's pretty small venue. I mean, uh, well, appropriately speaking, compared to Rockville, but like it's okay, it's a pretty small venue. I mean, there's probably like maybe a maybe 500 people in it, maybe, right?

SPEAKER_01 29:32

I think it was more than that from what the book said.

SPEAKER_00 29:35

Okay, yeah, because I mean from the video, I all I seen was this this young person just run up on stage, and it wasn't like visceral fucking attacking by Randy. It was just the fan, and then Randy kind of just more of a stiff arm type, like you kind of held him more back, but at the same time, he did lose his footing, right? That's all I remember seeing before all this transpired. Right.

SPEAKER_01 29:59

So, like I said, Randy had no idea that this young man had passed away until he goes back in 2012 and he's arrested as soon as he gets off the plane. Now he's put into a Sheck prison and he shares this whole story in his book. I've got it in the dashboard of my van right now, called Dark Days, uh, that he released in 2015. And he also wrote a song about this experience called Five.

SPEAKER_00 30:28

Is it 512 or 512? I've heard it both. He's even said both. This song is called Five. It's one of our favorites. Yeah, it's one of our favorites.

SPEAKER_01 30:37

And I'm not gonna give away too many details about the book because it is his story to tell, and he he wants you to he wants you to buy his book, and it's really good. He's a very good writer.

SPEAKER_00 30:47

I mean, he hasn't even pushed that on stage too much. He just says this song is called Five One Two.

SPEAKER_01 30:53

Well, one time when we saw him, he says this song is about an experience or uh something I went through in the Czech Republic. Yeah, yeah. I do remember that at one of the shows.

SPEAKER_03 31:02

He was an elaborate, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 31:04

Right, because we've been, yeah, because you don't need to. If you're a Lamagod fan, you know. Um, we've been we counted last night, we've seen them five times now. Every time it's been fucking superior, but we do have to agree the best was at Daily's in Jacksonville, because they played 11th hour.

SPEAKER_00 31:21

And that is Lindsay's first Lama God ever hearing those vibrations and tones.

SPEAKER_01 31:27

And when you experience a band for the first time, that first song you hear, it's just it sticks. You you love all of their shit. You learn to love all their shit, but that first song will always just be We were still kind of new Gen Z, right?

SPEAKER_00 31:44

This is almost pre-Gen Z. And I'm we're so we're we're playing like she we're listening to the corn, we're listening to some of the things.

SPEAKER_01 31:49

It was like we really have been dating like two, three months.

SPEAKER_00 31:51

And it was like, well, Lindsay, let me let you hear the heaviest song that I've ever heard in my life. And I just dumped it on her, and it was and she was like, That is something awakened in my soul.

SPEAKER_01 32:04

Yeah, and that when that that whole fucking breakdown, that I I can't even make it with my voice. I don't know. It's just I was I looked at him with wide eyes, mouth open, and was like, I agree.

SPEAKER_00 32:17

That's the heaviest thing I've ever heard. And we've heard some really deep guttural, heavy stuff.

SPEAKER_01 32:23

But that I at that point, I really had it, other than maybe some Corpse Grinder, um, maybe a few other that they never really now I love corpse grinder, but they never really like stuck with me to where I became stuck.

SPEAKER_00 32:37

That's a treasure too. Oh, yeah. Corpse grinder is so amazing.

SPEAKER_01 32:40

I mean, they inspired Brandy.

SPEAKER_00 32:41

Yeah, and and well, like as aesthetically and rhythmically groovy as a metal band, I still feel I don't care what you put out there in music and heavy music or whatever, that is still the heaviest song for me.

SPEAKER_01 32:57

And I just want y'all to know that maybe are not a fan of metal music or are like, you know, I don't really know what they're saying, just listen a little harder. That's all you gotta do. And I mean, like, honestly, most of Lamb of God's lyrics like just clicked, you know, because he's not um hard that his aren't hard to understand to me.

SPEAKER_00 33:20

Right.

SPEAKER_01 33:21

I mean, there's some metal bands that I really like.

SPEAKER_00 33:24

I do not know what they're saying, but I still love the aesthetics, and the rhythmic and the sonic fucking the production of everything. The assault of that as using as an instrument, that's that's the part of the screaming and all the the craziness in the background for vocals. It's more of an instrument, you know. There's a there's a drive that they're actually using vocals for lyrically, and some some of them you'll never understand it unless you actually look back at the lyrics, right?

Surviving Prison And Getting Cleared

SPEAKER_01 33:52

Right. So he's in prison in the Czech Republic, scared, you know, you're in a foreign country, you don't know what's gonna happen to you. He said that there was a guy in the cell uh next to him, and they because he went straight to isolation um for depression. And the guy next to him said, Whatever you do, don't say that you don't like it here because they will keep you here longer. And Randy took that shit and ran with it. And that way he can so when he was evaluated and all, they put him in the general population area instead of the isolation because he took this guy's advice. Like, no, I'm great, I'm good, that's wonderful here, you know.

SPEAKER_00 34:37

Right, because cell 512 didn't have it till later on.

SPEAKER_01 34:40

Right.

SPEAKER_00 34:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:41

Now he was the only American that he can remember, you know, at the time. There was a lot of people from other countries, though. Uh, but he was the only American. Now, one prison guard happened to be a fan and brought him cigarettes. And Randy told him, if I ever see you again, if I ever get out of here, I'll buy you a beer. Now, luckily, Randy was released uh after about on bail after about five weeks, and then was found not criminally liable. And the blame was actually placed on security and promoters. And I do think that that's that's fair.

SPEAKER_07 35:20

That's their job.

SPEAKER_01 35:22

That is their job. That's what I mean.

SPEAKER_07 35:23

They're not gonna be able to exist in that bubble without fear having to worry about anything else. Because that's what that entire crew is for, like all of them, the the security that the head of the venue provides, and then whatever he might bring personally. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 35:37

So the guys up front are for the their security for the people and for the bands.

SPEAKER_01 35:42

And there's usually what six in front of each stage at least.

SPEAKER_00 35:46

At this venue, I'm thinking there was there was at least six uh security people that I seen in in the city.

SPEAKER_01 35:50

And that's just the ones that you see that are gonna be catching the crowd surfers. Then there's you know, there's usually guys over to the side with the headphones on, and the they look a little bit more professional. Layers of security. Right.

SPEAKER_07 36:05

All the securities which is good.

SPEAKER_00 36:07

Uh spend the money and make sure everyone has a good time, a good experience, and safe.

SPEAKER_07 36:12

Everybody gets back home.

Giving Back Through Music And Charity

SPEAKER_01 36:14

Now, I heard this story um on an interview that he did uh on YouTube. You can look it up. Uh so a few years later, Lamb of God was playing on a cruise, and guess who was also there? The prison guard who brought him cigarettes. Oh, wow. Yeah, and Randy made sure he got his beer and told everyone on the boat that was listening to the Lamb of God show to take care of that guy the rest of their voyage. So that guy lived it up, lived it up. So uh Randy has done quite a bit of charity work. He's a really good human, really, really good human, just from what I can tell about the things he's wrote about. Now, he doesn't, you know, he's not trying to glorify himself, he's just sharing experiences. He auctioned off his Grammy that he got for Redneck and raised funds for myotonic muscular dystrophy. And the song The Duke, are you familiar with The Duke? Have you guys heard that one?

SPEAKER_00 37:16

I'm sure. I'm sure.

SPEAKER_01 37:17

So I listened to it because I don't think I had heard it before I heard this story, so I made sure I listened to it. Now, this song was written for a fan that Randy met and became friends with who was dying of leukemia. And like I said, you'll have to uh read you first, so first read Dark Days and listen to the audiobook if you don't have time to read as much as I would like to. So uh just beyond the light, you can get on book and audio, and Randy is the narrator. And that full story is just absolutely amazing. But this inspired Randy to advocate for Be the Match, which is run by the national uh marrow donor program. And they what they do is they register people for bone marrow and stem cell donation. So uh this song, The Duke, inspired another fan to register and has already helped save one life. And he is when this book was written, this same guy was getting matched up to save another person's life. Oh wow. That's awesome! Yeah, and Randy was there, like he met that guy, this fan, like sat there with him through the uh bone marrow, like is it a chance harvesting and all the things? Like he was there for him, and I was just like that is awesome.

SPEAKER_00 38:36

And that was what we were talking about last night at the show, right? Randy was like, give it up for this cancer patient, right? Yeah, in the middle of the show. So Randy, Randy Bly.com. You can see all the stuff on his website. I just wanted to put that here. We're gonna tag it as well, right?

Surfing Photography And Festival Community

SPEAKER_01 38:53

And then uh his author name is D. Randall Bly. I mean, of course, it's spelled like Blythe, but like I've learned. Bly, yeah. Yeah, it's just Bly. So you were talking about Randy surfing earlier. So he actually found his love for surfing and photography in his 40s and loves to do both in his spare time as much as possible. Yeah. So he didn't really, you thought he would always been a surfer. He didn't, 40s. He is 55 now.

SPEAKER_00 39:21

He started in his 40s.

SPEAKER_01 39:22

40s, yes.

SPEAKER_00 39:23

And I do remember seeing some of his photography and I see Randy running around at these festivals with a camera. Yes, loves it. Speaking of that, our neighbor over here was a famous photographer for metal and rock shows and music and the music industry. Huge. We didn't even get his name.

SPEAKER_01 39:41

I was gonna say, Jesse didn't get his name, and this great man left us an extra tent and an awning to enjoy at the end. And he guessed he's from Virginia. Virginia.

SPEAKER_00 39:51

Yeah. He said he's seen Randy at like the convenience store. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 39:55

That's where I think I saw him at the non-point show last January.

SPEAKER_00 40:01

So we gotta look him up. I'm gonna see if I can find his um his uh because he's like he's got millions of followers on his uh photo phase page and all. He's like, I just live that shit ride. I mean I'm retired.

SPEAKER_07 40:12

With the camera, it was just a dude chilling out in the crowd, leaning against the pole, watching the show, yeah, hanging out like everybody else. I I swear I think it was even when we played Rockville.

SPEAKER_00 40:22

I believe he was in front with his camera because he goes and checks out the smaller bands too. Yeah, I was like, I this guy looks so that's why I talked to him to begin with. As soon as we got here, I started talking to him about it.

SPEAKER_01 40:31

I'm gonna interrupt you both. She's talking about Randy, you're talking about our neighbor.

SPEAKER_00 40:35

Oh, Randy? Yeah. Oh, well, I'm talking about both photographers.

SPEAKER_07 40:40

We're having a whole conversation about two different people, but it's still going so great. I'm fine with it.

SPEAKER_00 40:44

Let's go. No, band photographers, they they really put in the work to authenticate something that'll last forever, and they they share it, it goes to magazines, goes to.

SPEAKER_03 40:52

Oh, yeah, it's amazing.

SPEAKER_00 40:53

And they have they have a uh a job and a career and an aesthetic thing that they're doing, and they actually take these pictures, these images of iconic things. And Randy has had some amazing stuff. And this guy over here, I recognize his stuff, our neighbor, when we showed up at Rockville. So that's all ties together.

SPEAKER_01 41:11

Find him, follow him.

SPEAKER_03 41:12

Yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 41:14

So Randy has done lots of collaborations. He's actually done one with Cannibal Corpse, uh, A Life Once Lost, Overkill, Gajira, Pitch Black Forecast, I Hate God, which is spelled like I, like your eyeball. Yeah. Eluvetti, Bad Brain, Soul Flight, Clutch, Body Count, Devil Driver, Suicide Silence, Doyle Metal Allegiance, Voodoo Glow, Skulls, and Lakuna Coil.

SPEAKER_00 41:41

And I mean, he is just voodoo glow skulls is like punk rock stuff. Yeah, I love that. They were in Gainesville.

SPEAKER_01 41:47

Well, he did with Bad Brains, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:48

Yeah, and Bad Brains, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 41:50

And uh he also has two side pre uh side projects, Halo of Locusts and Over It All. And I I said to myself that I was gonna present this whole episode like you know, the chance that Randy listens. Hey, we love you. Um you're an amazing writer. I enjoyed reading Dark Days and listening to your voice narrate into the light. And I hope I hope he does more books in the future because he's got stories for days, you know.

SPEAKER_00 42:19

I mean And his voice is so captivating.

SPEAKER_01 42:21

It is, it is.

SPEAKER_00 42:22

I wish my voice was that smooth. He is silky smooth.

SPEAKER_01 42:26

Silky smooth. And that's pretty much all I have to say about that. Uh yes, and this was this was a lot of fun. It was an adventure, and I love this band even more now.

SPEAKER_00 42:40

Just and as far as like the true crime world and and tying into that, it's really more on like the security guards from keeping this person from actually getting to the point where Randy might have been in fear for his life, you know? You never know. He might have been like, I'm in another country, I'm touring, and there's this person bum rushing my stage. Is he gonna shank me? Is he gonna shoot me? I don't know. People can have hate because they're controversial, you know? They're kind of controversial when it comes to like religion and lyrics and things, but he's also just like more of an uh eye-opening like experience to using metal music to project that we don't have to live in the uh the church bubble or the realm where people, you know, do the cookie cutter things and spend all their money and support mega churches and shit, you know.

SPEAKER_01 43:29

Two more things I wanted to say really quick that I thought was interesting. So he did not write Redneck, it was actually written by one of the other band members to him.

SPEAKER_00 43:38

Really? Yeah. From where he was from and like how he is, they were just like, yeah, we need to put this out here. And the video of that's really cool because they're that's like a birthday party for a little kid. Then they show up like full on metal bus. They take over this whole like young kid's birthday.

SPEAKER_01 43:55

That would be the best birthday party for our birthday.

SPEAKER_00 43:58

Oh, that video is. So cool. And that was Randy showing up, like, because Randy goes from like full-on huge dreadlocks to like shaved head. Shaved head. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 44:09

Sometimes he grows it out a little bit. We've seen lots of uh different stages of hair for Randy.

SPEAKER_00 44:15

And it's like all the kids are loving it, but the parents are all like, the pearls are clutched.

SPEAKER_01 44:20

And for us, it would be the opposite.

SPEAKER_00 44:23

Yeah, we'd be shoving the kids out of the way, like, no, no, no, no, God.

SPEAKER_01 44:32

Yeah, the only one you will ever hear.

SPEAKER_03 44:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 44:35

But uh, and then he does say that he the recording process is the worst for him because he doesn't get to hang out with his band at all when he is doing the votes. Yeah. He's like, that's the worst part to me because it's like that's sad, you know what I mean? It's like you're performing these amazing songs, so you've got to find this thing inside of you to keep you hype while you're doing the worst part of the project.

SPEAKER_00 45:01

Right.

SPEAKER_01 45:02

And yeah, so that I just thought that was interesting. I mean, the musicians gotta go through a lot.

SPEAKER_00 45:05

The guitar players, they're like they're so rhythmically sonic, uh assaulting, as far as like they they really play the shit out of those guitars. I love Lamb God, dude. And it's technical. I I can't play it. Like, I can I can play we play it a little bit uh on stage a few times, you know, like as a segue or you know, a little montage or something, you know.

SPEAKER_01 45:28

To see who gives the fuck part, yeah, you know, we'll we'll do that. But pop that in a song and it brings it to a whole different level.

SPEAKER_00 45:35

I don't know. I'm not on that skill level, dude. Y'all guys are inspiration and they really have changed a lot for people stepping up. If if you're trying to be a career musician and playing heavy rock music, definitely aspire to learning some of their riffs and their it's an awakening.

SPEAKER_01 45:53

Well, speaking of playing music, Jesse, what bands are you gonna put for us on this podcast?

SPEAKER_00 45:59

Oh now it's my turn.

SPEAKER_01 46:00

On this episode.

SPEAKER_00 46:01

Now it's my turn.

SPEAKER_01 46:02

It's your turn.

SPEAKER_00 46:02

I'm allowed to have a turn. Oh, Lindsay, it's not Lamagado. I wasn't allowed to play that.

SPEAKER_01 46:08

No.

SPEAKER_00 46:09

Yeah. Were they on nap? Maybe one day. Are they on napalm?

SPEAKER_01 46:12

I think uh, you know what? I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_00 46:13

Uh I don't know. Yeah, what record later were they?

SPEAKER_01 46:15

They've been through quite a few of them, actually.

SPEAKER_00 46:17

I have I've been granted permission to play napalm records stuff, but uh uh I'm probably not going to because the if it ever comes into a monetarily thing, if we ever get big enough, I don't want to have to back up and do legal stuff, you know? So I'm just thinking with small band stuff, and I got a cool band and I sound like Steve-O still from Jackass. I love it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 46:37

Well, and their uh Lamb of God's website is lamofgod.com with a couple dashes in there, and they have been on Legion, prosthetic, black market activities, epic, roadrunner, nuclear blast, and century media.

SPEAKER_00 46:49

Nuclear blast is good stuff, yeah. Okay, so never made it to the okay. I'm gonna light some music.

SPEAKER_03 46:55

Yay!

SPEAKER_00 46:55

Yeah. This is PK featuring Frakus, and the song is called Justice Miscarried. You guys are gonna fucking love it. Lindsay, Lindsay, Lindsay, Lindsay.

unknown 50:48

SPEAKER_00 50:49

Wasn't that hot?

SPEAKER_01 50:50

Yes. So Amanda and I have both followed them on Spotify, and they are also on Instagram, uh PKIndia, because they are from India. Wow. And I also followed, I also followed uh Frakus. And both of these bands are followed by bands that we have featured, Scum Love and Alexandra.

SPEAKER_00 51:12

Really?

SPEAKER_01 51:13

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 51:13

All a big circle.

SPEAKER_01 51:14

It's a circle. I love that. I love seeing that every week when I go to follow the band that we're gonna feature, just seeing who else we have featured that are also following that band. It's been it's been a lot.

SPEAKER_00 51:25

And all those bands have been supporting us and helping us so much. I love it. Thank you guys so much. Thank you. Pika and Freakus. So it was it like two bands, I think.

SPEAKER_01 51:35

Is it Pika or PK?

SPEAKER_00 51:36

PK, P P K P K A, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 51:38

It's spelled, uh, if y'all need to know. I'm so sorry. So Pika is P-E-E-K A-Y, and then Fracas is F-R-E-Y C-U-S.

SPEAKER_00 51:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 51:51

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 51:51

That's good shit. Follow him right now.

SPEAKER_01 51:54

Oh my god, that was great. I know Amanda's like typing in my phone right now. Right now.

Final Takeaways And Where To Follow

SPEAKER_00 51:59

We're following. We're following all the follows. Randy, though, he's been through it. It's a good story.

SPEAKER_01 52:05

And you guys, please go get his books. Buy them, support him. He really he's got a great stories to tell.

SPEAKER_00 52:14

He's an inspirational humanitarian too.

SPEAKER_01 52:16

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 52:17

Like he's done so much for the Native American community, for uh just social injustice. He has really stood up and his platforms the best he can and being a uh conduit for just creating awareness for a lot of things, you know, and keep up all the good work, everybody. If you get to this level, aspire to be another Randy Bly. Yes. And hopefully nothing like this ever happens to you in your music career or in anybody's travels. And the true crime in all this, I feel like, was just him trying to protect himself on stage in a foreign country as a performer. It was more of just like a stiff-arm thing that was tragically a fan.

SPEAKER_07 53:06

You don't belong there.

SPEAKER_00 53:07

Nope. And you put people in a situation where it could actually end their career, uh, you know, because I've seen people hit other people when they come on stage. I've seen uh some people try to dropkick somebody on stage. I've seen so many crazy things. And we also do know for a fact that there has been artists actually murdered on stage. You know, we know there's so much.

SPEAKER_01 53:31

Yeah, there's the factor where they've got to protect themselves because you never know who is gonna be crazy coming to see you as a fan. Yeah, so they have to live with that fear as well.

SPEAKER_00 53:40

This episode is is is purely just on awareness where you have to let performers have their platform respectfully because they don't they don't know.

SPEAKER_01 53:51

Exactly. Yeah, they just don't know. They're on they're you know, they're trying to perform, like Amanda said earlier, then that bubble. And they've also got their you know, their spidey senses up, they're all the things.

SPEAKER_00 54:02
