WITH FIREHOUSE BASSIST PERRY RICHARDSON

Welcome to another huge ass interview, this time with Firehouse bassist Perry Richardson!  We interviewed Firehouse guitarist Bill Leverty a few months back, and now it’s Perry’s turn to get asked stupid questions and get his 15 minutes of fame.  

1. What are you currently up to? (This is your only chance to plug your CDs, websites, tours, and other shit.)

PERRY:  here’s whats up with me. First of all, Firehouse is due to start the summer tour on May 26th. We will be releasing our 5th cd, “Category 5″ sometime this summer. We also just returned from a japanese tour where we recorded a live cd. It will be released in japan in july and sometime before christmas in the U.S.

     In other news, Michael Foster, myself, and our partner in Myrtle Beach, Scott Hyman, has started a business together. It is called “3930 MUSIC GROUP. It includes an independent record label(3930 records), a booking agency, a production company and a backline company. We have recently released our first cd on the label. It is a pretty heavy band called “UP SPOOK HILL”, who are already getting some great airplay in the south, midwest, and a few european countries.

2. Other than The Dollhouse, what are the coolest bars in Mrytle Beach to pick up chicks at?

PERRY:  the coolest bars to pick up chicks in myrtle. I really wouldnt know anything about that. While i’m in town i try to be a good boy. I know where to go hear a good band though!

3. You guys always take the time to meet your fans after your shows for free. How do you feel about certain bands (Slaughter) who make their fans buy merchandise before they get to meet them?

PERRY:  i dont think there’s much wrong with making the fans buy something to get to meet you. Although, we would never do that. But, at least the fans have the opportunity to meet them if they buy something. Thats better than not caring and not meeting the fans at all.

4. Do you think ?Up Spooks Hill? has a snowballs chance in hell of every getting a record deal?

PERRY:  i  think “UP SPOOK HILL” has a very good chance of getting signed by a big label. They are incredible live and their song writing is outstanding.

5. What rock star deserves the biggest smack in the mouth?

PERRY:  the biggest smack in the mouth would have to go to David Lee Roth. He once came out during our show and demanded that the plug be pulled on the p.a., just because we were kicking his ass. If you’re scared the opening band is

going to kick your butt, you should go home!

PERRY:  name one that shouldnt give up!

8. Was their any rock star/celebrity that you really wanted to meet, and when you did you found them to be a dick?
