MH: After the many years of performing, are
there any bands or artists that you all
opened for that are your favorites?

TH: We have not played with a lot of big bands,
but all the local bands from the scene back in
the day were some of my favorite times, like
Spiders N Snakes and the Glitter and Glam
nights, punk rock shows, and the Undercover
Slut tours we did. We always have fun playing
live and look forward to it anytime we can.

MH: This is a favorite question I've been
asking lately. 2020 and 2021 have been really
challenging years for all of us. Just when we
thought concerts were starting to open up,
we're now seeing some being postponed.
How has all this changed or challenged the
band and what has been the biggest
obstacle for you as an artist and in your
personal lives?

TH: We kept rehearing and writing all through
the pandemic and got our live fix by playing
private living room shows here at our
headquarters with close friends in attendance.
We posted some of the songs online, but for the
most part, have not played out. Here in Los
Angeles, shows picked up again, but we have
not jumped back into it as of yet. We look
forward to playing out again soon when people
want to go out again and getting COVID does
not interfere with being able to make a living with
our day jobs.

MH: Where do you see yourself in the next
couple of years? Any music projects or
tours/shows coming up?

TH: We have a new release coming out later this
year and will be re-releasing our ‘Best Of’ to the
digital platforms. People can get most of our
physical releases and other merchandise
directly from our website. We plan on
performing live in 2022 when things are safe for
everyone and there is no hassle to perform
shows due to the COVID restrictions. We are in
our third decade as a band and not even the
pandemic will stop us!
