You have ten words to describe your act, no more no less…
Four idiots trying rock music in spite of the circumstances
As an act how how does it feel to be back post-COVID?
We’re still in COVID & taking lots of precautions – mask up homies!
Given the myths and legends theme of Belladrum 2022, can you tell us a myth or legend of the band?
Cans in the car
Which legend (non-musical!) would you have appear on stage with you and what song would you play with them?
David Steel @_davad, Islands in the Stream
There have been a few musical legends play Belladrum over the years which performance would you most like the opportunity to see again?
Grandmaster Flash on the Hot House stage
How are you preparing for your Belladrum performance, what are your plans after you have played?
Lots of stretches. Afterwards we’re watching King Wine :)
If your set only consisted of three songs and one extra cover, which ones would they be and why?
Jangled up in Blue, Pig Fat, Hardtack, then a ska cover of I Gotta Feeling by the Black Eyed Peas, so that the combined length of our three songs would virtually equal the entirety of I Gottska Feeling.
And a wee bit of festival madness…
Who’d win a fight between Nessie and Godzilla?
They wouldn’t fight they’d kiss
You’re out for a few drinks, what other artist that you know, would turn it in to a legendary night?
Peter Cat and Bin Juice iykyk
Is Nessie real?
Yes, but small
What would you rather fight, a unicorn the size of Nessie or 20 unicorn sized Nessies?
Tiny unicorn
What is your favourite urban legend?
Goatman, I’m dancing on your bridge – it’s my bridge now! You hear that? You want me off this bridge, you’re gonna have to kill me! You’re gonna have to throw me off this bridge yourself! Look at the way I dance on it! I disrespect your bridge, Goatman! Goatman? They’re going to put my name in graffiti. Children will come here and tell tales of me!
If you had to form a 4 piece band from legendary creatures what instrument would each play and why? Also what would you call the Mythical band?
THE CRYPTIDDIES:
-Mothman – lead vocals & guitar (great butt}
-Thunderbird – bass (tall)
-Bigfoot – drums (likes to throw rocks, already percussive)
-Chupacabra – keys (seems like a good time)
