WASTOIDS is coming to the Rough Trade and Rockefeller Center’s Indieplaza September 17 & 18, hanging in the Merch Friend’s Artist Merch Market in honor of Band Shirt Day.
Today on WASTOIDS With, we’re talking with country singer and raconteur Dale Hollow. “Yours truly” might possess signature yellow lens glasses and a Manu Ginobili-like frame—with a wit and tongue ‘n cheek bravado to match—but behind all that is a distinct voice, delivered with the ease of a natural songsmith. For this WASTOIDS chat, Hollow sits down with Duwaun Johnson of The Country Brothers to talk about how he hooked up with masked singer Orville Peck, his love of basketball, his cover of the 2010 dance sensation “Dancing on My Own” by Robyn, and his favorite Coen Brothers movies.
Crack open the new vinyl edition of The Special Goodness’ Land Air Sea, and what you’ll find in the gatefold liner notes isn’t an essay on the recording process, an invocation of the band’s songwriting influences, or anything related to the actual tunes. Instead, you’ll find a statement from Pat about his and Atom’s shared obsession: vintage cars.
The Special Podness returns with another episode devoted to The Special Goodness, with Pat Wilson of Weezer, Atom Willard (Rocket From the Crypt, Against Me!) and Weezer historian Karl Koch. This episode focuses on the MTV Music Awards, Atom Willard meeting the Weezer/Special Goodness crew, and that time Jay Leno ended up knocking on Pat’s door—and by the way, Elvis is involved.
