Nashville Pussy Interview – October of 2001 by Antimusic

This is a great video interview for those of you who haven’t heard it yet. I don’t know who the guy is doing the interview but he’s really good. His pen name is Phil Dis., who is probably a real sober respectable type journalist because he asked good and sometimes tough questions. If you can’t get a chance to talk to the members of Nashville Pussy before or after a show, this interview will give you a little bit of their off stage essence. They are real down to earth people who love their music, fans, and lifestyle.

The interview is approximately 12 minutes long. It has very poor video quality and some gaps in the sound, but it’s still a really great listen. NP talks about touring and how much they love it and how they go crazy when they are off the road. Phil asks Blaine what direction the third album would take considering the first album, “Let Them Eat Pussy” was more raw and punk than the second album’s, “Highway to Hell” hard rock sound. Blaine tells him the new album will be pretty much where the last album left off. They were hoping the new album would be out this past Christmas but were having problems with the album title…probably cause they want to call it, “Keep On Fuckin”…lol. Or maybe it’s what BMF and I were discussing…they are trying to come up with a cover design that will come close to the last two covers although the cover for “Let Them Eat Pussy” is one of a kind and will be hard to ever top. The album is first being released in Japan before being released here in the USA sometime in April.

However they have been playing a few of their new songs on tour since May or so last year … “Drunk Daddy” , “Say Something Nasty”, and “Keep On Fuckin'” . I also learned from the interview “You Give Drugs a Bad Name” is also a new song. I don’t know why but we thought it was one of their older songs. I guess because we saw them perform it at the Echo in Atlanta this past November. So it seemed like a oldie or someting but oh contrare because it’s really one of the highlights of their live show…the part where Blaine starts his storytelling and really gets the crowd cranking. We have a small piece of video of it from Colorado. After hearing the interview and reading this and this, it’s pretty clear the song is about Corey Parks. Blaine was real cool about it though when asked if Corey quit or was fired…he confirmed Corey was the one who quit the band.

One part of the interview seemed a little sad considering Tracy has now left the band under strange circumstances. Phil asked Tracey how she liked playing with NP and how it compared to her experiences with Helldorado and Wives. Tracey seemed really cool talking about how much more organized things were and how nice and “uncrazy” everyone was in NP. Phil also asked who wrote the new songs for the album for which Blaine replied he wrote all the songs except for the two Tracey had written for the new album. Ouch.

Other stuff they talked about: what kind of cars they drive…mostly souped up Chevrolets..their musical influences..who they listen to now…discussion of the controversial Pussy name…and favorite places to play. Plus Blaine recalls a funny story about Slayer.

Hey Pussy Fans, I have some news about Tracy leaving the band and some news on the new bass player Katie. I had the chance to talk to Ruyter after their show last night in Colorado Springs. It turns out that even the band themselves have no idea as to why Tracy quit the band. Ruyter said she sent the band an E-Mail simply stating that she quit. No explanation, no nothing. Ruyter says they were blown away cause as far as they knew things were going along great. She went on to tell me that they sent email after email to Tracy begging her to at least tell them why she wanted to quit, to say she was ok or something, anything to explain why but they only recieved one other email from her saying,” My decision is final.” Ruyter told me that they were truly upset over the whole deal not only cause she quit abrubtly, but because they truly love her and are concerned about her. So it seems only Tracy can answer why she left the band cause the rest of the band sure in the hell doesn’t know.

Ruyter asked me if I liked their “Katie” and I told her hell yes and asked her if the band liked her. Her response “oh fuck yeah!” She went on to tell me that they feel like things have actually worked out better for the band this way and described Katie as “a cross between Corey & Tracy, and after only her 3rd show with the band she is kicking ass.”

Last night’s show at the Colorado Music Hall did kick major ass. It seems like they get better with each show. The majority of the crowd last night were obviously there for The Reverend. Three songs into Nashville Pussys show, I had to go out into lobby for a second and there were a buttload of people out there just hangin around. I wanted to go up to each one of them and tell them they were missing one kick ass band. So I watched the crowd when I got back in the arena and they were just kinda standing there not sure how to react. By the middle of their set though, NP had obviously won them over as the crowd started moving and screaming. Katie gets better with each show. Ruyter rules over the stage every night, this night being no exception. Blaine is a BadMotherFucker period. Jeremy seems to effortlessly bash the drums like no other, proven by the way he splinters his drumsticks. I love it when Blaine talks between songs. Their new song,”Keep on Fuckin’, gets better every night. This tour is KICKING FUCKING ASS and I’m so fuckin’ happy to be here doing this. No matter how star struck I may get though, the only person that really gets me is Miss Chicky. She cuts me the deepest every night. I love you baby.
