Hey, folks, this is a bonus outtake from our interview with Dee Placus of L7. You can hear Dee's

full-length episode, along with a whole host of other episodes, including one with the Melvins Dale

Crover, if you subscribe to the trap set on iTunes, Stitcher, or RSS. We toured a lot with the Melvins.

Yeah.

So what's something that you learned from each of those drummers?

Like, what did you learn from watching Dale every night?

Oh, God.

Well, okay, so watching Dale, watching the Melvins from the side of the stage was amazing because they're so,

like really in a weird way, they're like opposite of us in the sense that... Well, he's one of those slower, more methodical drummers that we're talking about.

But also, the Melvins are kind of like anti-hook.

Like, you know, like, they have a different trip going on, you know.

It's, you know, so I was fascinated with, especially with Dale, because, you know, it's so, it's so, it was so foreign to me.

Like, I always played in bands that, and I always tended to dig bands that, you know,

usually, like, they're hard or they're raw, but they have, there's a hook.

It's a, you know what I mean?

Like, you know, like Iggy or Nirvana or anything like that.

So the Melvins were very, like, you know, I was just like, wow.

And I remember we played with them, and it was Halloween.

And we decided to steal each other's looks.

So like Danita dressed like Buzz.

Uh-huh.

And at that time, Dale played in his underwear.
