What is a Deadbolt show like?
Harley: We have a party. We invite the people to come and have a party. Ole: Talk to the audience and insult them? Harley: Yeah, talk to the audience and insult them. Ole: Is that why Deadbolt is the “Scariest Band on Earth”? Harley: The scariest thing came when we first started playing. We had to play with all the local bands. Steve: Who were the local bands at that time? Harley: The Paladins, Eddie Vedder had his band in San Diego. He did “Bad Radio” on stage with these big posters of like Pete Townshend, one of Sigmund Freud, the others were something goofy. It was like, “Look at me, man. Look at the posters of these people.” What an asshole, who gives a fuck. So, when we were playing with these bands and this chick is like, “You scare me,” in a condescending way, so that’s how we became the scariest band in the world. I like the thing where a band has a title–band needs a good title. Ole: What happened to The Phantom?
