Stryker Interviews The Interrupters at KROQ's Summer Pool Party chords
Start Jamming...
Hey everybody, it is Striker.
Welcome to my interview in a cabana series featuring the
Interrupters and Irration.
Check it out!
[G]
[B] What's up everybody?
It is Striker at the K-Rock Summer Pool Party, Morongo Casino,
joined by the Interrupters!
Hey!
What's up?
Wow!
Normally, at least in my [G] world, I'm never allowed in a fancy cabana at a pool.
What
about you guys?
Well, you [N] know, this is like a first for us.
To be in a cabana, morongo, poolside, this is awesome.
Now, I've been to many pool parties in my life.
Normally, it's just because of work,
I don't get invited much.
But have you guys played pool parties in the history of your [G] band?
We played one pool party in Vegas two years ago at Warped Tour.
And there was a circle
pit in the pool.
Everyone jumped in and there was a circle pit in the pool and it was awesome.
There was a lot of people drinking adult beverages in the pool but nobody getting out to go to the bathroom.
Were you expecting a mosh pit in the pool?
No.
No, but we kind of requested it, to be honest.
And we're going to request it tonight.
Now, for me, these are my only clothes.
I can't get in a swimming pool mosh tonight.
Yeah, I mean, we didn't wear flip flops.
We got Doc Martens on.
We're kind of, this is
our short sleeved pool version of The Interrupters right now.
[D] One thing I've never asked you and we've been in each other's world for a little bit [G] now
and I appreciate it so much.
And after today, you can just unfollow me on all socials and
be like, I'm sick of you, Stryker.
It's fine.
[F] What was the first [E] show you guys played and
where was it as The [G] Interrupters in LA or Orange County?
It was the Alpine Village in Torrance, which is like a Oktoberfest kind of German-themed
restaurant.
[Gm] But our friend Elvis was putting on punk shows there [Cm] for a long time.
And when
we first started the band, [C#] he also plays [D] guitar in The Transplants, which is another band
I play in.
[A] And we were at practice and told him about The Interrupters at the very beginning.
He's like, well, I'm putting on shows at this place called the Alpine Village and you guys
could get on one of the shows.
And then we went out there.
We had some, they had like
pastrami egg rolls and weird snacks.
And it was cool.
It's a lot of fun.
[G] And Amy, were those shows in the beginning when you played a show like that, did you
have total confidence going in like you do now?
I've always known you as complete confidence.
But what was it like going into those shows?
Well, they [C] were like, it was tough at first.
You know what I [D] mean?
Like, it was kind of
like, it was a little nerve wracking because we're coming in and it was like a kind of
like a tough, [F] tough, like
It was [C] a tough room.
Tough room.
I [G] remember two songs in, they [C] started the dance and we were like, all right, we're going
to be okay.
Yeah, but we, but from the beginning, I mean, [G] we're like family.
And from the beginning,
like, we're like, we got [Fm] it.
We got each other.
If anything goes wrong, at least [C] like, you
know, but we had a lot of fun.
[Gm] And putting yourself in that [N] situation as a band can only make you super strong.
It's
like, look, it's like a comedian the first few times out.
Even though you know what the
heck you guys were doing.
It's tough when no one knows who you are.
And I'm always, like to this day, I'm always nervous before I go out on stage, you know,
I'm always nervous.
Like they say that, you know, after like the first song, like you
just relax and you're not nervous anymore.
No, I'm nervous the whole time.
I'm always
just like one, you know, I'm always like thinking about what's next, you know.
For many people out there who possibly just know of you guys now, Jesse and Justin, give
them the mic.
I want you guys to talk.
What's up?
I want some history bullet points.
Where did you grow up?
Oh, we grew up in Van Nuys, [C] San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, California.
What high school did you [G] two go to?
Well, we took a bus across the hill to Hamilton Music Academy.
Which is right off the Tannery Freeway, which is near K-Rock.
And the two of you growing up, did you [Em] always want to be in a band together?
Oh, [F] yeah, we did.
And the funny thing is, growing up, going through school, there was
never room for both of us in our [C] friends' bands.
So like I'd be in a band and he wouldn't
be.
I was pretty much, I wasn't in a band.
Get the mic closer.
I wasn't really in a band until this band playing my [G] instrument.
That's true.
[C] What has been the best part about succeeding as brothers?
[G] Oh, that's a good question.
Just being able to do it together.
I mean, I think that goes
for all four of us.
But, yeah.
Who do you want?
Maybe that wasn't my best question.
I'm sorry.
No, no, they don't like to eat meals apart, ever.
So [C] at least now, we go [A] on tour, they
still don't have to have meals apart.
They have breakfast together every morning.
Yeah, they do.
They have to have breakfast together every morning.
It's kind of adorable.
I'll wake up and go to the front of the tour bus and then they're there with avocado toast.
One [F] avocado, they split it in half.
One guy gets half, the other guy gets half.
It's all
very formulaic.
There's no place to reef it in, ever.
[G]
Kevin, my question for you is, as we wrap this up here at Morongo at our pool party,
do you ever feel pressure because so many of the comments about The Interrupters are,
wow, these guys [B] are keeping blank music alive, whatever it is.
Ska, [G] punk, rock.
They play
their instruments, they're writing their songs, they're so legit.
Do you feel pressure
[B] doing what you're doing or is it free for you?
You know, I do [G] have to say that the amount of love we've been getting as of late is,
we have so much [A] gratitude and it's just been, [G] it's not lost on us that for most bands, [G] don't
get that kind of love on radio with you, you know, and like, especially a band of our genre.
So like, whatever, keeping whatever alive doesn't really matter because it's always
alive everywhere we go.
Like, it never went away, but just, you know, there's no real
pressure for us, especially now that we've kind of gotten to this point where we're just
so lucky to just be [Gm] here, you know, like we're just trying to enjoy it [G] as much as we can.
Well, it's great to see you three succeed and the four of you together, just all doing
it.
And whether you add five radio spins or a zillion, you guys have built up the fan
base in such the most respectable way by just going out and earning the fans by playing
live shows that are great and incredible songs.
So kudos to you guys.
Thank you for believing in us from the very beginning.
Thank you so much.
Our very first radio spin right here on the 420 family.
Even dumb guys like me get very [N] lucky.
They are the Interrupters and I'm Striker and it's the K-Rock Pool Party.
See you guys later.
Bye.
Bye.
