about

The first time I saw Black Helicopter was at TT the Bears, and they were a sonic steamroller, but lyrically I was lost at what was going on. My first attempt at an interview was scrapped and instead I got called to their practice space to chat and came to understand that all of the lyrics for what became their first album were transcriptions of a lunatic who would nightly harass Tim and Matt at work at a convenience story.

Somehow I quickly turned from suspicious journalist to a guy who was helping turn knobs during recordings while the band was in the other room creating a din. A din I got to contribute some percussion and backing vocals to along the way. Heck, I even spent two weeks in a van driving to Texas and back with them and found a place for some keyboards in the mix for those shows.

Now we're all a bit grayer, but they jumped at the chance to contribute to Pipeline! @ Home, the biggest problem was waiting for significant others to allow them to gather and actually record this. Technology helped them demo some ideas and the results are magic. When we can't all get together to rock, it's so nice to at least help give a band a reason to get together so that the whole world can relish in that din.
