Mr. Lisp, a Punk Rock band from Philadelphia, joins Bill on Episode 491 to discuss the band, their music, and the Philadelphia Music Scene. Segment 1 with Mr. Lisp Where did the name Mr. Lisp come from? If I were to go on tour with you, what music would we listen to between stops? Let’s talk about the movie Rock Star, you’ve been tapped to replace the lead singer of a successful band after have been in a tribute band, which band would I see you front? Sticking with the movie theme, 10 years from now, they decide to make a movie about Mr. Lisp and their rise to stardom. Who would play you in the biopic? Last movie related question, like the movie Almost Famous, a writer has been assigned to accompany you on tour. What would be written about Mr. Lisp after the tour ended? If one of the bands from the scene here in the Pittsburgh scene wants to come to the Philadelphia scene to play a show, which venues should they check out and why? What is the one best thing about the scene in Philadelphia and the one worst thing that you wished you could change? You can pick 1 album that you’ve already heard to erase the memories of having heard it, and go back to listen to it like it’s the first time again. What would it be? Tell me about your song, Birch Boys. Segment 2 with Mr. Lisp If you were going to create a supergroup from your scene to manage, who would be in it and why? Tell me about an embarrassing moment you had on stage, or one that your band mates may have had. Who would you say has supported you the most as a musician? Can you tell me about the moment that you decided you were going to play music? What is something that your fans would be shocked to find out about you? Where can my listeners get a copy of your music, and find you online? If there was an apocalyptic event and all of your music except for one song was destroyed, which song would you want to survive and help “recreate” the human race? Do you have any upcoming shows that you’d like to promote? https://www.facebook.com/MrLisp/ https://mrlispband.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/mrlispphilly/

The Crowning

September 22, 2017 Build the Scene All Podcasts, pars 1:03:26 Comments Off on The Crowning

We starting things off making reference to Jack Black…I mean why not? Micah, of The Crowning,  gave us a look into how he became a musician by telling us about how he avoided rock music because his older brothers liked it. He told us about his music collection. Paula Abdul, Vanilla Ice…and a few other questionable albums haha. He cited Nirvana as a very influential band in his musical journey. He also talked about being influenced by Tool, K0rn, System of the Down, Disturbed, STP, Velvet Revolver, and more. Vertigo, no… not U2 but a stage moment that Micah had in his old band. Micah then goes on to tell us about his band mates and how they met, as well as, an odd story about a bass player that responded to his advertisement looking for band members. We talked about the way they’re releasing songs as singles instead of EPs or Albums and why. You really need to hear why, it makes sense to me and I never thought of it. We also took a moment to talk about a that The Crowning will be hosting in Stroudsburg on October 6th. We then talked about their new song “Hard to Find” which you will hear on the show. Don’t forget to join their mailing list, they’ll send you some physical “stuff” in the mail. Lastly we discussed how the band name came about. (Unless you talk about the conversation about roads and temperature). Don’t forget to check out the Band Blast this weekend in Memorial Park in New Kensington!
