9fingers: Ok, to start, what do you guys do for fun on here? (the bus)
Chris: Play video games, watch movies...
9fingers: Yeah, I saw somebody back there playing Tony Hawk (Pro Skater for Playstation).
Chris: Oh yeah. Play alot of cards, you know, shit like that. Fuckmonkeys (laughs), go bowling,
umm, lets see...
9fingers: Do you play Tony Hawk?
Chris: Yeah.
9fingers: High score?
Chris: I don't know, (thinks for a second) I can't remember. I think like 30,000.
9fingers: (laughs) Nah, see if you can beat 70,000.
Chris: Craig's got like 90,000 in one move.
9fingers: Damn. I've only got the demo version with the Chicago Skate Park level. Can't pull
off phat combos in the demo.
Chris: Yeah...
9fingers: (looks around empty bus) So, where's everybody else?
Chris: You mean, where are they at?
9fingers: Yeah, the rest of the band.
Chris: They're all inside, hangin' around, doin' stuff.
Chris: Yeah, I saw it when we were in the studio, but I didn't really look at it too hard.
So I haven't seen it since, it's just kind of a joke now. You know?...
9fingers: Uh huh.
Chris: ...after what happenned.
9fingers: What'd they say about Purity and Frail Limb Nursery? Were they like "Take those
songs off or we'll sue!!"?
Chris: Yeah umm, I'm not really too sure at this time. I don't know what's been going down
with that, but we'll see.
9fingers: So, you still play "Purity" live, right?
Chris: Absolutely, it's a good song.
9fingers: Indeed it is. Do you play "Me Inside" and "Get This" live too?
Chris: Uh huh.
9fingers: I heard "Me Inside" for the first time last week. It's a dope song.
Chris: Yeah it is!
9fingers: Any word on the condition of Corey's grandmother? Last time I was here, he spent
a while talking (during our interview, which can be read here) about how his grandmother was sick and how badly he wanted
to finish that leg of the tour and get back to her.
Chris: Yeah dude, she's better now.
9fingers: Good to hear.
Chris: Definitely.
9fingers: So you're gonna be on The Late Show (Conan O'Brien).
Chris: Yeah, in February. (Feb. 25th)
9fingers: Know what you're gonna play?
Chris: Probably "Wait and Bleed."
9fingers: Thought so. Are you gonna play the toned-down (mellower radio) version?
Chris: Nah, we're gonna play it straight up. It's gonna be live, so yeah. It'll be brutal
dude. I'm gonna trash some shit for sure.
9fingers: (laughs) I can't wait to see the look on Conan's face. You know?
Chris: (laughs) Absolutely! We'll do our thing and see how it goes.
9fingers: People are saying that if the Conan appearance goes well, then MTV is gonna try
and get a piece of the action.
Chris: Fuck them.
9fingers: Thank you!
Chris: Yep. You know, even if they do play it on MTV, I could care less. None of my favorite
bands ever got played on MTV, except when Headbanger's Ball was on.
9fingers: Ahhh yes, the ball.
Chris: (laughs) Right on.
9fingers: I hear Shawn's making a new mask.
Chris: Mmm hmm.
9fingers: What's that gonna be like? Cuz I can't imagine him as anything but a clown.
Chris: I'll let you find that out for yourself. I've seen it, and all I can say is, it's
still a clown, and it's pretty sick.
9fingers: Ever gonna change yours?
Chris: Maybe in the future, might get it to do some stuff.
9fingers: Ok, that's about it. Anything you wanna say?
Chris: It's gonna be a brutal show dude.
9fingers: Alright, thanks for the interview.
Chris: You bet.
