Tokyo Police Club Interview

The Tokyo Police Clubs first Gorge experience was delayed after the missed their flight and incurred an additional sixteen hundred dollar expense to get here. Josh and Greg were nice enough to sit down with us and still seemed to be taking in their surroundings.

Growing up in Nemarket, Ontario a suburb of Toronto the music scene for Josh and Greg consisted of Friday and Saturday night Punk/Ska shows at the local youth center or bus rides into Toronto for the bigger acts. Josh let us know that his first concert experience was a Radiohead show, and Greg chimed in to let us know his was Ringo Star at the Casinorama.

My favorite story was Josh talking about the day he met Greg while riding the bus in the eight grade. According to Josh there was a kid on the bus with a guitar and he wasn't so great at playing it, eventually though Greg got his hands on it and began to play Radiohead's Paranoid Android which got Josh to turn around in his seat and listen. The rest of the crew have all known each other since the fourth grade.

The topics ranged from sound problems for the guys and others at Coachella this year, to Greg's not so impressed views on the new Smashing Pumpkins single "Tarantula."

After the Gorge show the guys are off for two months before heading out on their second European tour and are working on putting together new material. Of course we had to ask what some of their guilty pleasure songs/bands were. Greg said he still likes to crank up the Blink 182 and Josh is still a fan of The New Radicals "You Get What You Give."

They truly seem to be enjoying their success and are some of the most down to earth guys we've met. Best of luck to them in the future and we can't wait for the set today.
