Lunachicks Interview

Interview by HELL7 on  Halloween night, 1995 at The Boathouse in Norfolk, VA. The 'Chicks opened for Rancid on that tour.

T=Theo, S=Sindi, G=Gina, C=Chip, SQ=Squid, and H7=me

NOTE: This interview was my first band interview even and thus, it was longer than it probably should've been. Nobody tells me these things! I will have to put part of it up and then transcribe some more and add to it as time goes on. Also, Sindi had some sort of eye infection and nobody told me to shorten the interview so she could go wash her eye out….And, thanks to the 'Chicks!

H7: How would The Lunachicks be different if you were from one of those states that  doesn't exist like Nebraska?
S: We wouldn't be able to kick everyone's ass.
G: We wouldn't be as cool 'cause we'd have to be like, "Hi, we're The Lunachicks and we're from… Nebraska."
C: We'd have songs about corn a lot. Well, do we have songs about corn, though? No. We need songs about corn.
T: Uh, we have songs about
a corn.
H7: Do you guys have cars, and if not, what's your dream car?
SQ: I have a car, it is my dream car. It's a 1964 Chevy II Nova, blue, four-door, thank you.
T: I know what I would have, I can't even drive but if I had a car I could drive I would have an El Camino with huge monster truck tires and it would be the f*ckin' bad-ass car of the universe.
C: I have a 1970 pick up truck, but um, I really want a muscle car. That's the next one.
G: I have a Big Wheel--hah!
S: '63 white Ford Falcon, red trim, red interior. I've seen it already.
H7: I have a '65 white Ford Falcon but it has black trim. No radio, no tape player.
S: You do?!
C: That'll work.
G: Wow!
S: Take me for a ride!
SQ: Mine has the original radio in it and it's like Christine and it plays only old music. It's cool.
H7: How do you guys like playing on this tour?
T & S in unison: Love it!!!
G: These guys [Rancid] are really, really cool. The audience has been a lot of fun.
H7: I noticed that the attitude of the crowd was a whole lot different than from the shows you headline. I didn't feel very safe.
T: [with a quizzical expression] Really?
H7: It's kinda embarrassing but this guy kept grabbing my boob so I told him to stop and he didn't so I had to grab his balls and…
C: Sh*t!
T: You know what? If people do that to you, first of all you should fight back but second of all, go get a f*ckin' bouncer and point out who did it.
C: Or let
us know.
T: Because those people shouldn't be here.
S: People get thrown out all the time for doing sh*t like that. All the time.
G: 'Cause that's f*cked up you know, we're not into it and it pisses us off when it happens but a lot of times we don't know that it's happening.
C: We like to find out about that sh*t.
T: The other night, actually, this girl I was talking to after the show told me that a bouncer grabbed her ass when she came in. So I went and told somebody who told the management and they knew exactly who it was and he got f*ckin' sh*t for it, and we're all about that.

To be continued when I locate the interview tape again...
