Timmy: Sometimes it's the newer music. I mean we have
written, played and recorded it, but we will go and play a
show with our regular set and come back and have to
practice it a few times to get back in the groove with the
new stuff. (laughs) We will probably do that on our down
time and run through the new record again.
Big Dad Ritch: Imprinted memory, you know you can go
through the regular sets all pissed off about something
without thinking about it. It's when you do new songs
and it's like, “Am I supposed to be singing
here?” (laughs)
DDR: So what are your tour plans for the rest of the
year?
Bid Dad Ritch: This is it for us for right now. We are all
going to go home and get as far away from each other
as we can get (laughs) I'm just kidding. We won't get
much of a break. Next Friday, we will actually be playing
in Ft. Worth for the 9th or 10th annual “Ride for Dime”.
We have been doing that since its infancy. If we haven't
been able to play, we send items to auction off. In fact,
we will be auctioning the hat on my head. I have worn it
through the whole Mayhem tour, so its got a lot of DNA
in it.
Big Dad Ritch: We wear
the state of Texas on our
backs wherever we go
and when we travel
abroad, it's never we are
from America, or the USA.
It's always been we are
from Texas
Timmy: Everyone likes
DDR: If you guys could go back in time, and talk to your Texas (laughs)
younger selves, what would you say?
Big Dad Ritch: It's a lot easier to get laid than you think DDR: Thank you guys for
it is (laughs)
an awesome show and
Timmy: I knew what I wanted to do at a pretty young your time. I’m sure we
age, so I would tell myself that I was making the right will be seeing you again.

Big Dad Ritch: Thank you
Cord: Don't go to college (laughs)
doll, it was a pleasure.
Big Dad Ritch: I think we all knew at a young age what
we wanted to
do, it was
just
finding
our
own
path. I think
we are all
happy
that
our paths led
to each other
and led all of
us to this.
DDR: Being a
band
from
Texas, how
important is it
to get out
there
and
represent
your
state
being that we
are a proud
bunch?
