Interview with John Gidlund

2005-11-14T14:41:00.000-06:00

I recently met John Gidlund at a Texpert show at the North Beach Halloween show. I've seen them in concert 2 times already. John's really cool and super nice! We've been e-mailing each other ever since. I e-mailed him an interview and he answered it. It's really cool. Texpert is awsome! I love them! Their website is www.texpertmusic.com. Check them out! They signed a poster for me at the show! Check out this awsome iterview!

How long has Texpert been around for?
October 24th 2003 was the first time all four of us got together to play music. That day was more of a jam session to see if we liked playing together. I had a handful of songs at the time and we ended up jamming one of them called "Hey Kids". We actually just recorded Hey Kids to release as a Christmas song at the end of the year.

How did you get in the band?
There is a long back story to the creation of Texpert. Johnny Smoke and I were in the same class in high school. So that is how I know him. Both of us played in different bands all through high school and after. Right around the year 2000 both of us quit our bands and stopped playing for a while. Johnny Smoke started a cover band sometime in 2002 called "Special Guest", mostly to play for fun. He needed an emergency guitar player to sit in for a set of music. So he called me up and we started to rehearse for the show. Right away I was amazed by his vocals and I asked him to start an original band. Jason Smith was the bass player in the cover band and I really liked his playing as well. Johnny Smoke knew Mike Dixon from college and we asked him to come over to play drums. That is how it all came together.

Why does Texpert usually wear shirts and ties (which looks cool) when your playing live?
I think we do it to separate ourselves a little from other bands and maybe even the audience. It is kind of fun to dress up at shows and look a little ridiculous. The white shirts are bright so it does stand out quite a bite when the lights are on us. It used to be more common to dress up in the early sixties and even into the 70’s and 80’s but I think the hair bands took it to far.

Who's idea was it to wear that?
Johnny Smoke used to wear a white shirt and tie in his last band call Split Habit. So he kind of encouraged us to go that route. It took me a little longer to be convinced on the idea but now I wont take the shirt off.

In your opinion, what bands does Texpert sound like?
When we first started I was really interested to hear what other people thought we sounded like. I have a hard time explaining it to people. I think a lot of young musicians, including myself when I fist started playing, feel like they need to imitate other people to be respected. This is the first band where I said the hell with what anyone is doing I am going to be completely myself. With that being said, I think we sound like a cross between the Smoking Popes and Jimmy Eat World.

I loved the Ghostbusters costumes at the Halloween show! How did you think of that?
We wanted to dress up for Halloween and all look the same. So we were just sitting around after practice thinking of movie characters and Johnny Smoke said lets be the Ghostbusters. I was given a gift certificate to Target, so when I was shopping there I went down the costume isle and to my disbelief there were four Ghostbuster outfits with backpack and all. So I snagged them right away.

Your EP is great! Do you know when the cd's coming out?
We have three songs recorded for the next release now and we would really like to have it out by no later then July of next year. The next thing we are going to release will be a full length. The plan is to record about twelve songs and put the best ten on the album. I would really like everyone to hear what we have done so far but I guess it will have to wait.

What is your favorite Texpert song?
I am really happy with the way Ozone Bloom came out. Out of the four that we did for the EP I feel we nailed that one. I love the harmonies and the fact that it starts with vocals right away. I like to write short pops songs and Ozone is the epitome of what I am looking to accomplish with Texpert.

I love you cover of Weezer's "Say it Ain't So"! Do you ever play any other covers?
We did do two other Smoking Popes covers but it is hard to beat Say it Ain’t So. As soon as we can think of a song to top it, I think we will play a different one. Plus people are always asking us to play the Weezer cover so we might as well do it. We have always been more of an original band I guess.

You're awesome at guitar! When did you start playing?
I started playing right around 8th gradish. Right around that time there were some really good bands coming out and it was pretty inspiring. Bands like Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, and Sound Garden dominated the radio. They made it possible learn four cords and be a rock star. Other bands had done that before but never made it so mainstream. Plus my Dad played guitar and my Mom was singer so I grew up with music as a way of life.

What was the first song you could play on guitar?
I brought a guitar home that my best friend gave me. I asked my Dad to show me how to tune it and play a few things. The first thing I learned to play were two songs that my Dad wrote when he was in high shcool. About a week later I had about three songs of my own. They weren’t very good.

What are your top 3 favorite bands?
The hardest question to answer. I would have to say The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and Led Zeppelin.

How did Texpert get it's name?
We are huge Beatles fans so it is an obscure Beatles reference. Listen to the words of the Beatles song "I am the Walrus" off of the album Magical Mystery Tour. One of my favorite albums by the way.

Hope you injoyed my first ever interview!

2005-07-16T08:23:00.000-05:00

I've been gone for a while. I was busy, but I started a lot of playlists for my blog when I was gone. On the 3rd of July, I saw my second favorite band of all time in concert. Can you guess who it is? It's kinda obvious. LOCAL H!!!! I got to meet them before the show! I talked with Scott and Brian for a while. Then they signed my new shirt and my "Whatever Happened To P.J. Soles?" cd. It rocked! I was first row in the pit for the whole concert! Local H is great live! I made a Local H playlist for everyone who loves Local H, or just discovered them.Here is the song list:
1. Sports Bar - Local H
2. I Saw What You Did And I Know Who You Are - Local H
3. Hit The Skids Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Rock - Local H

11. 'Cha!' Said The Kitty - Local H
12. Hey, Rita - Local H

Another concert I went to was Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers. The Black Crowes opened up for them. It was awsome! I went with my Aunt to see them on the 15th of July . She took me for my birthday present. My birthday's on the 30th of July. If anyone wants to say "Happy Birthday" on the messages boards that would be cool.

Today is the 16th, and I'm going to the Pitchfork Music Festival with my dad , The Covalent Bond. Yeah. He's my dad. Did it shock you? Is it like starwars? "Creep, I am your father!" Anyways, It's gonna rock! We were gonna go on the 17th also, but my mom planed this huge, stupid, family party for my birthday that day. Doesn't that suck? All the bands at Pitchfork are good, but I'm looking forward to seeing Death From Above 1979. They're cool.

As you all know, today is valentines day! In honor of valentines day, I wanted to share some stuff I love with you guys. Check it out!

TV Show: Everyone knows MTV sucks, but they have a few good shows. My favorite would be Subterranean on MTV 2. It's all the underground music videos that they never play. It's on Sunday's at 11:00pm-12:00am.

New Music: If you like to discover new music that no one knows about, I suggest this site. It's called Epitonic .They have free and legal Mp3's to download. You wont find bands like Green Day on it, but you will find bands like Pretty Girls Make Graves. You don't even have to join anything to do it!

2005-02-13T20:12:00.000-06:00

Did you see the performance at the beginning of the show? Los Lonely Boys and Franz Ferdinand were on with a bunch of crappy rap and pop people. I had no clue they were going to be on! Also, a little while ago they were talking about Led Zepplin and showing some pictures of them and stuff. They got the life time achievement award!

I also wanted to tell you guys that you can make posts on my website, and you don't have to be a member to do it.

2005-02-13T17:19:00.000-06:00

In rock news today...

On The Zone (94.7 FM) today they played Bound to the Floor by Local H, but they didn't list it on their website. The Zone always list every song they played in the last hour and what they're playing currently on their website. Isn't that weird? To see for your self, Click Here
The Grammy's are on tonight on channel 2 at 7:00pm. The Grammy's SUCK, but there are a few good things about them. Here are some reasons (the ONLY reasons) to watch...

1. Los Lonely Boys are up for Best New Artist

2. Los Lonely Boys album, Heaven is up for record of the Year

3. Velvet Revolver's album Contraband and The Killers album Hot Fuss are both up for Best Rock Album

4. Franz Ferdinand's self titled album, Modest Mouse's album Good News for People who Love Bad News, and PJ Harvey's album Uh Huh Her are up for Best Alternative Music Album

5. Take me Out by Franz Ferdinand, Somebody Told Me by The Killers, and Vertigo by U2 are up for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal

6. Best Hard Rock Performance:
Megalomaniac by Incubus
Some Kind Of Monster by Metallica
Feelin' Way Too Damn Good by Nickelback
Duality by Slipknot
Slither by Velvet Revolver

7. Nymphetamine by Cradle Of Filth, Whiplash by Motörhead, and Vermilion by Slipknot are up for Best Metal Performance

8. Onda by Los Lonely Boys is up for Best Rock Instrumental Performance

9. Fall to Pieces by Velvet Revolver, Float on by Modest Mouse, Somebody Told Me by The Killers, and Vertigo by U2 are up for Best Rock Song

10. U2 is Performing

I guess that's a lot of reasons, but if you think about it less than half of those things will be shown on TV. Besides the stuff I listed, it will probably be all that pop and rap crap. Also, if your wondering why I never listed Green Day, it's because I like their old stuff from Dookie, but I'm not that crazy about their new stuff.

CD Review For What ever happened to pj soles? by Local H

2005-02-12T11:12:00.000-06:00

I bought the cd a few weeks ago, and I thought it was great. It has a sort of grunge feel to it. If you don't know who Local H is already, they are an underground band from Illinois. I think this cd is one their best cds yet. If you like bands like Nirvana, Kasabian, and The Wipers then I recommend this cd. All the songs were great, but my favorite tracks are How's the weather down there?, Money on the dresser, and That's what they all say. I give this cd 5 stars and Highly recommend it. If you like this one, check out their other cds too.
