Last Saturday morning before FUN FUN FUN FEST. here in Austin, Ben Seligson and I and a few of his buddies set up an interview with the Dead Milkmen. This weekend is Fun Fun Fun Fest, so we were like "Let's get some bands!" The Milkmen JUST reunited for the first time in four years, so we were like "yeah right that'll never happen." So we asked a bunch of other bands to come in for in-studio shows/interviews. We asked Minus the Bear, the Spinto Band, Dan Deacon, and a few others. We figure, "Well at-least we can get to do some of these guys since the Milkmen won't wanna come."
Guess who was the only one of all the above bands to not cocktease us by never confirming a show or interview with KVRX even though their managers kept emailing us telling us they were totally working on it or that it was 99% possible.
The Dead Milkmen. And their show was so good, it knocked all the other bands I saw that day out of the water. Excpet Municipal Waste who were pretty awesome. "BEEEEEERRRR PRESSURE!!!!"
Check out the interview below. I'll be honest, I always kept getting the guys confused, especially when I met them. I thought Rodney was the singer, but when I met him he didn't act like a singer, so I thought wait "Dean sings? No he plays drums." It was confusing, but as soon as Rodney Anonymous got on stage last night he was like 18 yr. Rodney all over again. They sounded so great!!!! And they covered Bauhaus.
