Interesting Road Trip Stories:
Was interviewed by Terry David Mulligan on MuchWest after bumping into him on the streets of Gastown (Vancouver). Later that night, we had to defend our van from a butter-knife wielding attacker. A week later (the day the interview aired), we ran into a deer at 3 a.m. somewhere outside Kenora. During Crash 13's 1995 summer tour, we once played 4 shows in 40 hours in 3 different provinces (B.C., Alberta, & Saskatchewan). Was once so poor during the 1996 Crash 13 tour, I had to purchase a block of cheddar cheese and a loaf of bread on my nearly-maxed credit card in order to eat for the next 36 hours.
