Modern Fossils PARS532

On episode 532 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show, Modern Fossils make their debut to talk about the band and their album “Incredible Edibles”. Segment 1 with Modern Fossils Where did your band name, Modern Fossils, come from? If there was a catastrophic event that erased almost all the humans off the earth, which Modern Fossils song should survive and help with the repopulation of the Earth? Tell me about an embarrassing moment that someone else in the band had on stage? If you were headlining a worldwide tour, what bands from the Pittsburgh Scene would you take with you to open? If you could open for any band in the history of music, what band would you want to open for and why? If you could sit down on a bench for 1 hour and speak to a musician, but only ask them one question, who would you talk to and what would you ask? If I was flipping through a social studies book, why would I find Modern Fossils in it? Who would be your “Dave Grohl”? If you were on tour and I was following you around, what would the soundtrack to our trip be? Segment 2 with Larry, Billy, Danielle, & Brendon Do you have any shows coming up? If someone was trying to book you, how would they do that? Besides not having shows, how else has the pandemic affected your band? What is something your fans would be surprised to learn about you? If I were to play one of your songs backwards, what would we hear? What is something that you absolutely love about the music scene and something you hate about it? If you band was secretly a group of superheroes, what superpower would each of you have? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOmM2OjfKNk

Both bands will be featuring songs live from their records and have CDs available for sale, and they want to share it with YOU, Pittsburgh! July 28, 2017 Doors at 9, Show at 10PM $5 In our first segment, Bill is visited by Moe, Larry, and Curly… errr Jason, Johnny Metal, and RuDawg of Fist Fight in the Parking Lot. We start out talking about the writing process and how circumstances allowed them to sit on the songs and go back to them later, we smoothly transitioned into the history of the band (yeah smoothly haha) and talking about about festivals and competitions… throughout the whole interview you get bits and pieces about their writing  & recording processes. I asked about the title of the album, and got a lot of different answers (haha). They were much more forthcoming about where the band name came from. Segment 2 starts out with a conversation about social media and websites and then we move on to learning a bit more about the pieces that make up FFITPL. Sammy or Dave? It was around this time that we learned that Chris embarrasses Fist Fight in the Parking Lot. We move on to name every band we could think of and even talk about Overlord Brom (Dethlehem) and his helmet. Somehow we even included Orko… we then move onto having them create their own super group from local musicians. and well… ya… listen to the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KecIdlEAKhU Bob Price was the member of Dog Day Sunrise that I couldn’t remember during the show, tattoos at Inferno Studios.
