Congress of Cow was my first band which eventually changed into Lanemeyer. It consisted of Myself, Chris Barker, Jeff Demiceli, and Andrew Spratt. This is how I got into the scene. I’ve had a few episodes that were clearly just for me and this is one of them. I lost touch with Jeff years ago and he emails me out of the blue saying he heard the Jay Blanda episode, and I quickly set up an interview. And this is what we chat about: Lifting weights How he started playing drums How he connected with Mr. Barker Practicing in his parent's basement his thoughts on double bass pedals His feelings about Sean from Lanemeyer The show where we got unplugged by the sound guy How we both remember parting ways Seeing Warped Tour at Action Park in 1996 Meeting Blink 182 before the blew up Modesty Panel And a ton more Check out my new book The Couples' Checklist for my webcomic dailyBred. It's a great gift for Valentine's Day.
