77,283,486 Views - BlipTV Video 2013 - No ,..It's not the Rutles and their classic 1963 Hit,..it's the Mighty G.e !!! THE WORLD'S MOST WATCHED BAND !!  The GREENHOUSE EFFECT WITH THE "CLASSIC" NUMBER ONE ( 1988 ) ( PHIL KEEGAN AND CLARK HAGINS ). THIS swirling "Dorian" Masterpiece You have no doubt heard on the internet Millions of times and it's tracks like this THAT GET GREENHOUSE EFFECT ( G.e ) THE BIGGEST ATTENTION on the web in 2012 !! And in over 200 Countries, G.E Keeps you GLUED to your SCREEN !! 

"Our debut album was from March of 1988 and we had built one mean collection of tunes over time." Says Clark "The Shark" Hagins in 2012; "We would rehearse at Ted's House." ( Bassist Rick Carmody ) Near El Retiro Park Torrance Calif. "Our goal was to devise a whole new sound that would totally change music ,.. but really, we weren't just another "Psychedelic" Garage band from the 80's which was a common thing back in the day." Hagins says that the song "Precarious" was rehearsed extensively and that "Number One" was the natural follow up track for ROCK CITY PRODUCTIONS BLOGGING 2012; "OUR BAND was just a three piece line up but we had an explosive sound ,.. my drumming went perfectly with Keegan's very reckless and experimental guitar,.. no doubt !" Hagins was reknowned in the "South Bay" area ,. ( Redondo Beach / Torrance California ) as one of the Wildest and Greatest Drummers in town and he had played drums for nearly 30 different bands dating back to 1982 when he was just 17 years old; "I was known primarily as this Great Drummer but secretly at my home studio,.. I worked extensively on my singing and guitar noodlings ,.. I had my own songwriting ideas that were very vast ,.. But for the most part, I kept it all to myself ,.. at least for as long as I could." ( Laughs ),.. Hagins had worked on his own "demo tapes" in 1985 and 86' by himself,.. before he joined G.e officially in 1987; "For about 6 months or so, I only drummed in G.e ,.. but one day I played some of my tapes to them and the next thing I knew,.. I was the LEAD SINGER ,..BUT FROM THE DRUM KIT !!"  HAGINS DRUMMING HAD always been an explosive combination of hard hitting masters like Keith Moon and John Bonham and his hard partying ways seemed to follow those two legends as well; "We all drank a lot and everybody smoked a 'hella lotta weed,..I rarely did though,... it wrecked my drumming" Says Hagins. 

Hagins singing in the studio was a bit like David Bowie ,.. maybe Syd Barrett and maybe with some trappings of the 60's Who from Tommy ,.. but when he sang live at gigs from the drums,.. a new power exploded out of the P.A. System that was almost like Robert Plant!; "When G.e played live, people could not believe how good we were,... no bands wanted us opening for them ,..that's for certain" Says Hagins,.. "We were a very powerful rock band but we could play blues tunes with the best of em' too."

Hagins recalls a G.e. gig at Wilson Park Stadium in June 1990  where the three piece G.e. had "Total Command" of the gig and from the get-go ! "Precarious was our first song ,.. and we just went crazy from there,.. huge crowd ,, we never made one mistake ,..very loud, very powerful ,.. it was fucking insane ,.. Cream and The Who would have been proud of that shit" Says Hagins. 

G.e had diverse influences from Black Flag and The Who and David Bowie to the Chocolate Watchband, Zeppelin, and Deep Purple to Cream and beyond !

"Captain Beyond !!" Barks Hagins. 

The guitar work in G.e from Phil Keegan cannot be talked about enough. This Axeman practically "invented" Grunge but also displayed a knack for total original ideas that were loud , proud, crude, and POWERFUL above all else !

"The early phase of G.e has Flipper's stamp all over it ,.. he was the leader of our band" Says Hagins. "When we played live shows as the three piece,.. the audience knew they were witnessing the BEST BAND IN CALIFORNIA 1988, 89, 90 ! ,..BUT WE BLEW it when we went four piece ,.. because that killed the "Magic Trio" effect ,..as I tried to explain to Phil ,..

Rather than return to the Trio format, G.e got in to debates about September 1990 ,.. about the groups's direction and huge arguments ensued ,..fragmenting the band ; "I wanted to go back to 1988 type shit,.. be a three piece,.. Phil didn't want to,..he liked the new Four Man Format with new drummer Mike Valencia now on board" Says Hagins; "Things boiled over at a show in Camarillo California organized by a guy named Larry Coven; "We got to this gig ,..and well ,..it was kinda this huge deal ,..but it was right in the middle of some indoor Strip mall" Says Hagins,.. "Keegan said there was no way he was playing that gig ,.. and I was like ,.. dude we drove all the way here, let's just do this shit" ,..but the other three members of G.e. agreed against Hagins and the gig was cancelled and the band all drove back to Torrance; "That was the end of the first phase of G.e right there" Says Hagins " but a new G.e. would soon arise,.. STAY TUNED !

GREENHOUSE EFFECT

No. 1 Lyrics

Do what you can
To make sure that you
Can get it your way
Can live for today
'poor mans on the run
But no. 1
Is doing ok
... is tired of complains
That the effort ain't there
To make sure we all
Do live as one
"He gives from his surplus"
Ain't that good enough?
Ain't that good enough?
God,... I don't know
God,... I don't care!
I can see you!
I can see me
I don't need more
... and neither should we
So live for today
So boogie on down...

'Cause we ain't gonna be around...

Note; the Second refrain has lyrics from the G.e. Song "Precarious"

Mixed in...

"So what can I do for you?
You say you'd like your soul saved
Suddenly you believe in me
Now that we're standin'
Face to face
'I didn't give you a fair chance
With my precarious human race
; You were fair game?
Farce human test
It took you so long boy,
You figured why waste your breath
It took ya so long boy
You just never asked...

Hagins: That's because of way back in the day,..listening to a diverse collection of shit,..from David Bowie to,..Like Harry Nilsson to Atomic Rooster ,..to like and,..and Neil Innes and THE RUTLES; FUCK YEAH THE RUTLES !!

METAL JIMMY; THE RUTLES ?? YOU mean that Monty Python shit, Eric idle ,.?

Hagins; Yes,.. probably me favorite band,..SO LIKE,..just think of us ,..G.e ,..we're like today's Rutles,..to reality ,..instead of how they were just to the Beatles,.. we are the Rutles to like 50 different bands,..lol,..

Metal Jimmy; so what  happened back in 1990 ,..why did you guys go separate ways with Dr. Phil,..the Flip-Meister himself,..Phil Keegan,..the MASTER OF STRAT DISASTER,..THAT LIVE SHIT WAS SO KILLER ON YOUTUBE,.. bro ! LIVE IN SANTA MONICA BRO,, SICKEST SHIT !! Just three ,..piece up the ass jammin' Ginger Baker Boss shit man !!

HAGINS; WELL,..I was a kinda a young impish weirdo kid,.. immature,.. or maybe too grown up,..listenin' to my Beatles and my Stones,..MY Bowie,.. and all my weird artsy fartsy shit,..Flipper was into Deep Purple,.. guitar shit,..Zep , Clapton,..don't get me wrong,..I'm into that shit too,..I dig Cream,..only ,.I think i like the early Deep Purple with Rod Evans,..an fuck yeah,..later on,..I loved the CAPTAIN !! FUCK YEAH CAPTAIN BEYOND !! 1972 !! ALBUM IS AMAZING !!,,...And of course Zappa !!

METAL JIMMY; WHY DO YOU think your music goes so good with my surfing shit ??

Hagins; uh,..fuck ,..you could put anything with surfing ,..but yes,..I think my drumming locks onto surfing nicely ,..surf beats,.. 

Metal; Seeing that you guys are so popular all around the world now,..300,000 fans and followers at Jango and shit,.,.. why don't you tour,..?

Hagins; I already told you ,...I'm 54 years fucking old now ( laughs ),... Hella old here bro !! Now,..

Metal ; Tell me about The early days,..at Ted's House,... Torrance,..El Retiro Park,..era,..

Hagins,..; Well ,..those were amazing early times,..and like I mean we drank early TIMES, BRO,..AND WE PARTIED, GENERALLY GOT WASTED FROM 1985 TO 1990 ,..BUT we recorded such great shit ,..important times !!

to be continued,.. 

Metal Jimmy; OK,... ok , I really want to FOCUS NOW ,..I want to talk about that "early period" of G.e. especially ,.. those days at El Retiro Park in Torrance CA, just You, Carmody and Keegan,.. how did that come to be ? 

Hagins; In 1986, I was driving this Vw piece of shit Fast back around Torrance and Redondo ,..and I had 'just learn to drive" ,..other kids drove at like  15 and a half and all that shit,.. but I never drove a car til I was like 21,..no shit ,.

Metal; No shit ?? !!

Hagins; No fucking shit bro,.. that's how fucked up I was,..and I would always go to this dudes garage to get my shitty Vw's worked on,.,..and i would hear in the distance,..that Douchebag Ted,..jammin' with these 2 dudes,.across the park ,..I always thought Ted was kinda a back-stabbin' creep ,.me and him had a band before ,..we jammed with this dude Steve "Stevo" Stepanian,..from like 1984 til 85, 86' ,..Stevo was amazing,..we played this insane heavy blues rock,..it coulda gone some place,..great songs we had,..I arranged all of Stevo's shit,..and turned them into organized songs,..i had the mad skills ,..and we were like this tribute to the Who but like as good or even better than the Who; we were insane,..but it never really took off,..out of the garages,..I mean,..the potential was there,.. we smashed our gear and we even had like these mad cat punk rock moments,.. to be honest , it was a better band than G.e. ever was,..We called it "Soul Clinic" ,..we played this most unbelievable gig one night '86 in Lomita, I was just 21,.. where we opened for the Twisters, blew them the fuck off the stage,..! and they were the biggest band in Los Angeles,..a bit old by 1986 though ,..anyway ,..long story short,..Stevo liked to hang at the beach, get high, play volleyball, meet chicks,...then one day I heard he was movin' to Grass Valley way up North, ,..bummer the Soul clinic faded into oblivion ,..but then suddenly ,..the Mighty G.e. was born !!

Metal; So how did that hook up ?

Hagins ; I went over there,..and like Ted and Flipper were jammin' in Ted's room which was such the famous jam room, South Bay Torrance 'n all ,..and they were playin' with this pretty amazing John Bonham type drummer a kid named Rich Hebben,..a way better drummer than me ,..so I grabbed a mic,..and started singin' one night,.. then I showed up one day and they said Rich was bailin' the band to go to cooking school or some shit and suddenly I found myself doing what I love,..jamming with a Cream three piece ! AND PLAYING MY DRUMS !!,.,, like fuckin' Rush meets the Who,..Keegan was amazing on guitar and it's weird,..because I knew Phil longer than anybody ,..since like we were in first grade,..1971 '72 era,.,... Park Way Elementary School Torrance by the beach,..me walkin' there in the mornings and hearin' Nilsson "Without you" comin' from somewhere,..great memories,.. you could walk to a school then ,.. at age 7 ,, without being abducted,..LOL

Metal Jimmy ; How did that first album,,which was so fuckin' trippy and rad,..1988 ,..how did that come to be,.. ??

Hagins,; "well ,..we jammed for what seemed like forever at Ted's house 1986 to 88'  and "Precarious" seemed to be our signature original, we played it over and over,. ,..they had played it with Hebben for a while long before,.,..but with me,..it got even more powerful ,.. "Number One" was this Dorian Guitar  amazing shit that Keegan wrote and would play just fucking insane ,.. these 2,..and a cover of the Yardbirds "Think about it",.. these were THE EARLIEST AMAZING EARLY WORKS OF GE !!

WHERE DID YOU GET THE NAME GREENHOUSE EFFECT?

HAGINS; I think A guy named Andy Vest suggested it ,..some say I thought it up,..but I don' think so,..we were all gettin' drunk in a room,..and there it came,.. I keep the memory ,.

Metal Jimmy ; You're kinda a Fox News douchebag,.. a rightie ,..Why did that name click with you ??

Hagins; ( Laughs ) ; I wanted a name that was in conflict with my beliefs ,..something that I can debate with myself,..like masturbate,..( Laughs) 

Metal; But you were lookin' for some kinda appeal ,.like environment,..or green ,..like marijuana or somethin,..to connect?? with douchebags,. ?? around the South Bay,..

Hagins ;  yeah definitely ,..fuck I donno,..I am into the music,.but yeah,.I get all self worried and conflicted,..no doubt,.. and those times, the late 80's were weird times,.

Metal; How about the song "The Magic Man" ? that's classic fucking shit,..whats that all about ,. ??

Hagins; Well,.I was like 23,.. tryin' to branch out,..and that was sorta this accidental tribute to my mother,..in comparison to what pro athletes make money wise vs,..her school teacher gig,.. (laughs),..

Metal; so you guys had this amazing album goin' all around the South Bay and L.A ,.. were you guys blowin up or just blowin,..lol ??

Hagins; We started to blow up kinda big and get a great reputation,... the whole scene in Los Angeles was Heavy metal ya know like Motley Crue Poison typa shit,..but we hated that shit,.. we kinda like Maiden though ( laughs ),..AND SLAYER !!! Bands that are kinda techical ,.. but,..WE were JUST three REGULAR DOUCHE guys who dressed normal,.. just t shirts ,..well ya know we dressed like shit ,..especially me n Ted,..we felt like shit,.,.Flipper was a little more normal HE had like this way better upbringing than us,.,..he had a clean demeanor , nice guy clothes, dude looked like Greg Brady but played a mean fuckin' axe !! it was like this total contradiction ,.a little reminded me of Angry Samoans typa vibe,..lol ,,

Metal ; A lot of your life seems to fuse into G,e, ,..it really get's into those lyrics in "Racers" almost makes me cry n shit,..great fuckin' tune; EARLY Proto GRUNGE ALL THE WAY 1988 !! man !!

HAGINS; YEAH ,..that's a fuckin' amazing track,..I wish we could go back in time and re-recorded it a bit tighter ,..though it does sound pretty rad,.. as it is,.

Metal ; So the year 1988 was pretty rad ?

Hagins ; No,..not really ,..my personal life was trippy,.. there was this chick I was into,..she got married to someone else,.. I felt like shit,..but survived it and moved on ,..all kindsa shit,.. lotsa family shit,..

Metal : Why are there so many songs not on Jango ?? ,.. why do you not have up that song "Actor" such a great fuckin' tune,..from 88' ,..and Little Man,.. ?? and others ! Bro ??

Hagins;  I will probably find those and put them up soon someday ,.. lol,.."Actor" is kinda lame and cheesey ,..but I knew you might like that lame shit ,..lol, sounds as lame as like some Deep Purple metal tribute,..( Laughs ),..anyway,..the live gigs 88' were rad,..some legendary break through shit,.. We knew we had something totally unique, different, a full resurgence of like 1966 to 68' shit ,.. we started sending all this shit to labels,..indie AND MAJOR ,..WE KNEW WE WERE THAT FUCKING RAD,.. WE COULD sign with a major label deal ,...but I also knew,..We could improve too !!

Metal; Then comes early 1989 ,..and you guys are then gettin' into trippier shit,..what was the deal with "A Current Affair" ,.. fuck that shit was rad !! 

To be continued ; @ Jango #Radio

October 8, 2019

Hagins; Yeah 89' was when I was turning 24 ,... listening to a lotta shit like Captain Beyond ,...and experimenting with weird drum beats,... I was getting a bit of a reputation for drums by 89 era,..  which I kinda hated because my singing was so important to me,. but I was a pretty rad drummer, no doubt,.. our three piece line up was BY THEN PRETTY MUCH  unbeatable shit,..the way we looked, the way we stood there, rocked out,..my drumming definitely propelled those 2 clowns,..to a higher level,.. but being a singer from the drums,..took a lotta practice back at THE 251 garage,... I was a perfectionist ,..I had to nail the drums with energy exact like Keith Moon or Neil Peart ,..but I had to nail the lead vocals as i drummed,.. live, ,..AND,..the vocals were way different from the studio,..nothing like them,.. in fact,..much more bass in them live,..had to be,..to get above the drums,.. We were starting to play amazing shit live ,..but we totally struggled with "A Current Affair" ,, that weird beat ,..sorta like "Dancing Madly Backwards" By Captain Beyond,..I just couldn't pull it,..but all the 4/ 4 shit was very doable,..and we were insane live,.. THE BEST !! THE LOUDEST, THE SWEATIEST !! 

Metal-Jimmy; Yeah Yeah Blah Blah ,..you're a self proclaimed legend ,.. the Ty Cobb of garage rock,.. but let's get to the real story behind G.e. ,..Now,..when did you meet the 2 douchebags who later signed Nirvana , the Geffen Connection n' all ,..lol ??

Hagins: This happened long before indie and Alternative rock would break out in the Early 1990's ,... I would meet Craig Aaronson at a record shop up in Hollywood one day while putting down flyers for a G.e. gig ,.. but this was some time back in 1988 ,.. he told me that he "was connected" to A & R People but that he did not yet actually have a job at any Record Labels , he told me that he played in bands around town ,..and he also wondered if I was 'connected to anything" ,.lol,..

Metal-Jimmy ; Did you give him a G.e. tape then ?

Hagins; "yes,..of course,.. he got Global Warming and my phone number, etc,.. and it wasn't long before he called me ,..at 251,..

Metal-Jimmy ; So what happened,..did he like it,..??

Hagins: FUCK ,..DID HE LIKE IT ??,...he was completely Blown away and he said he would "give it to others" ,.he gushed to me that he had NEVER heard a sound like "Precarious" and "Number One" and all this shit,.. he said it was the highest Energy shit,.. like maybe the Yardbirds,..type shit,...very 60's vibe,..yet totally up to date,.. he mentioned that he was going to give all my stuff to this guy named Gary ,.. and he gave me an address in West Los Angeles,..to mail him more stuff that he needed,..8 X 10 glossies ,..etc,.. better pics than I had already given him,.. I put together one of our Promo packages,..which were always the best in rock ,.. and mailed all the Shit to the guy ,..then suddenly ,..I would see him down in the South Bay,..I would bump into him at record shops DOWN HERE,.. he seemed big interested in Redondo Beach quickly I saw,..lol , I remember telling him,..the odds at finding another G.e. around here are slim,..BUDDY ,.. and that we were a rare thing and that we "Were not the typical sound,..of the South Bay" lol,.. rummaging around Hermosa won't do ya much good !"

METAL JIMMY ; DID you ever hear anything,.? did you follow up ?? with your tapes,.

Hagins; I mean,..i would call the guy,..I did what I could ,.. but I didn't wanna bug the dude too much ,..shit,..sheesh,..believe me,..  bro,.I TRIED,..I AM ME BRO,..A PRETTY PESKY PERSISTENT ,..DUDE HERE,.. I remember I told Flipper and Ted didn't seem real interested JUST thought I was full of shit as usual,.lol,..,... We were drunks n stoners,..remember,.. but I "knew" we were onto something and that,..it WAS UP TO ME,.. !!,..ALSO I KNEW,..We had to keep moving forward,..with our music,..our sound,.. !!I explored 'other" connections too,.. I would meet up with ,..a guy named Larry Coven who said he was connected to Electra Records, etc,.. I mean dude shit,..bro,..I met all these people,.but you know L.A,..it's crowded,..it's tough ,..and it was ALL HEAVY METAL 1988, 89, 90, ,...EVEN Most of 91' !!

METAL ; I SEE FLIPPER sings a track from your second album,..I  should say your Ep,..the colored vinyl,.. "Six Feet Under" kinda rad little song,.. 

Hagins: yes,.. "The Four Song Ep" ,..cost me like 1000.00 $ to make ,..a lot of money back in 1989 !! ,..to still be putting out a vinyl !! I sold them all out though,..now,, I wish I had one,..( lol ),, My wife today Veleda,..she loves the song 3/4 which was about that chick named Tania ,..( lol ) who got married,.. 

Metal: the vibe for G.e. must have been growing huge !! 89'

Hagins; Yeah,..it was,..but things come and go,..ebbs and flows,.. the way I look back at it now,..1988 was a way better year,... no way to cut through that L.A Hair metal scene , and Bam Magazine shit n all,..1989,.. these were simply "Not" alternative rock or emo times,..at all,..lol ,, believe me,..a douchebag like you would have loved 89' ,..LOL !!

Metal-Jimmy ; So you get to 1990 and now you guys have some amazing shit,.."Coke Snorting" and "Waiting for your Love to Fail" , Immorally Moral ,.. the buzz must have been ridiculous ,.. 

Hagins,.. By 1990, G.e. were playing bigger shows,... a huge gig at Wilson Park in Torrance in front of like 2000 people,.. and no doubt, Hollywood had taken notice of us,.. but the shit with Bam Magazine was weird , They fully took my shit out of context , printed weird shit, I was talking to Attorneys,..'wanted to sue these Losers,, ! ,..my sister died in May 1990,..right in the middle of our recording,.. all kindsa weird shit goin' down, alotta people hated me,.. South Bay drama shit ,.. but things were about to get really odd for G.e. ,... we were about to take a turn,..into the Twilight Zone,...

Metal Jimmy ; Virus O' Syrus ,..the sickest "metal" shit you ever recorded,..not on Jango, hard to find online,.. you need to make videos for that shit and put that shit up !! ,..but ,.. I know you parted ways with Flipper 1990,..what the fuck happened,..?? That must been some heavy drama shit !!
South Bay type shit ??

Hagins: Our egos had gotten huge ,... I made the stupid suggestion to put me at lead singer only and for us to look for a drummer,.. We found a guy named Mike,..this Mexican dude,..who was pretty good on drums,.. we found him in the Recycler Paper -the CraigsList of the day ( lol ),..AND ,.. a lot of people were like "Shark,..yer the Great Drummer,..why are you just singing,..? you are killing the special magic trio thing that IS G.E. " ,..I DIDN'T CARE,.. I wanted to get signed badly and I figured a more "Normal" 4 piece band was the way to go ,...

Metal-Jimmy ; "But G.e. is NOT A FOUR PIECE,... YOU GUYS were a natural three-some,.. you guys going 4 ,..that would be like Rush putting Geddy on lead vocals and hiring a bassist,..bad move !! IT KILLS YOUR WHOLE IMAGE !! MIKE WATT WOULD ,..be bummed,.. 

Hagins: yeah,..we didn't think it through,.. We didn't ,.like,.. know it at the time,..but I sorta did,..the Mike Valencia Version of the band was actually kinda Professional-ish live,.. trouble was,..G.e. were not Pro's,..we were HOBBIEST'S ,..very skilled high energy amateurs,..very erratic,.. yet tight also,..very exact !! Think like,..The 1967 ?Who !!  Perfectionists ,..yet idealists,..performance art,..self destruction !! THEATRE OF THE ABSURD AND,...UH,...  With Mike, we almost became like just any other metal band,.. and I wanted no part of metal !! I listened to stuff like Black Flag,.. AND,.. stuff like firehose or the Minute Men and their three piece,, very appealing !! I wanted to be in Flipside magazine ,..Not Bam !! I WANTED REAL CRED !!

Metal Jimmy; How did the final days with Flipper go ?

Hagins "; Very awkward,.. I had all these songs at home,..THAT OVER MANY YEARS,..I had WRITTEN 'ON GUITAR",,..kinda secretly ,..sorta like a Dave Grohlish TYPE Douchebag,.. .. I wanted G.e. to go in the direction of a Flipside like Punker three piece,..yet still have long hair,.. I don't really know where this inspiration was coming from AS I WASN'T REALLY INTO THAT SCENE MYSELF ,.,.. all i knew was that I no longer wanted to jam with Flipper,..his stuff was getting way too metal,.. there was this awkward meet up where me and Ted saw him with another band at the studio,..very weird,..but in late 1990; America the Beautiful, Wilson Phillips, and Ben is Dead,..they had to be BORN !! AND THEY WERE !!

METAL JIMMY; THE NEW PUNKER G.E. !! GRUNGE ,..LOL ! late 1990 !! and I never got to see you douchebags Live either , damn !! Let's go south bay surfin' !!

HAGINS; AWE YES,... LET'S BE ,.."GOING LEGIT " 1991 !!

METAL JIMMY ; NOW,..YOU GUYS TURNED IN A WHOLE NEW DIRECTION,,IT WAS THIS WHOLE NEW SOUND AND "STAR" WAS DEFINITELY SOME KIND OF INDIE ROCK "REVOLUTION" ,..WHERE THE FUCK did that and all these new songs originate,.? ?? 

Hagins; Like I said,... building up a ton of demo songs from over the 1980's ,..jamming when I lived below Cindy in 1986, cranking Sabbath,..but also getting into Bowie, The Who, and GENESIS ,..THE GABRIEL YEARS,..AND JUST 'AFTER",..the first three Phil Collins Singing records,.. AND ROXY MUSIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

METAL JIMMY; STAR, Ben is Dead, and hey Negrita,..22nd Street, God's Joke,..heavy shit man !! AMAZING ALBUM !

Hagins: Yes ,..late 1990, some awesome music,..working with the late Billy Krodel,.. but then we met this guy named Andy Houston,,..amazing studio engineer,.. and on real minimal gear down there in Harbor City ,..we recorded "22nd Street" and all this aamzing shit !! But 1991, here is where the G.e. story gets weird man , Craig Aaronson comes back into the picture,..and I was like "Where the fuck have you been asshole ?? lol "

Metal-Jimmy ; So he heard going Legit,..what did he think of it,..??

Hagins; he was more blown away than ever before,.. he said it was "Genius" his words not mine and that we had really come along way since that other tape in 88',.. I told him that we actually had like 40 BRAND NEW songs but that,..we could only afford to record like 8 to 10,..LOL,,

Metal Jimmy ; So ,..Let's talk about 1991, a pivotal year for G.e. ,.. You and Ted ,..the "New" three piece,.. So which drummer did you guys jam with first ?? Was it Greg or Marty ?? 

Hagins; Actually ,..it was Mike !! Me and Ted tried to play with him for a few rehearsals ,.. it just wasn't happening because his drumming was suited more to metal,.. then,,..one night I heard this dude just hammering the drums inside a room,..like Bonham meets Moon,.. I waited around and when I saw the big dude unloading his gear,..I was like: You're hired for G,.e Bro !! It was Marty Silva !!

METAL ; DID he play the Drums on the "White Black Song" from March 91' ,, ?arguably the definitive G.e. "Grunge" Song,.. 

Hagins; No ,..that was all me,.. when I heard of all the racial shit in LA, the video taped beating of Rodney King all over the news, I was inspired to come up with this unusual amazing track I DO NOT KNOW FROM WHERE !,..it just came into my brain,..like a vision,..I carefully recorded every instrument on it,.. I knew I had something that day indeed !! Like G n R meets the Cure meets Def Leppard meets The Cult meets Bowie !! Ted knew it too, He plays the bass,.. Marty was one of the early people to hear the track; he was blown away !! So was Aaronson !! AND SO TOO ,..WERE LOTS OF PEOPLE !!

Metal Jimmy; What were those early rehearsals like with Marty ,..? 

Hagins: Amazing,..ya know ,..I had to talk Marty into jammin' with us,.. I think he didn't think we were good enough,..but when he heard that tape,.. he was there like the next day ,.. and the very first time we ever jammed,.. we were insane tight,.. like we had been playing for 8 years or some shit !! all just from the three of us,..independently ,..listening to our tape,..
LOL,.. We were that good !!

Metal-Jimmy; But things didn't last long with Marty ??

Hagins; Marty was a rad drummer,... but I think our personalities didn't click or something,.. it was really weird in there,..he was a cool dude, but smoked a hella lotta pot , we played like three killer gigs with him,.. but I let him go June 1991, that's when we found Greg Tarpley !! And this guy fit RIGHT WITH GE. !! I call "This" the CLASSIC G.E. LINE UP !! 1991 !!

METAL ; Another Wilson Stadium gig ,.. 1991 ,..did you guys film that one ? I heard that was sick !!

Hagins: We should have ! We should have been more organized,..this was a key gig !! Somebody in the crowd filmed it ,.. but I've never seen it ,.. very tight,.."22nd Street" I remember was amazing ,.. Whole gig was insanely good gig,.. Me and Arronson arranged for Craig to be there,..but he never showed that day ,..bummer,..cause we probably woulda got signed ! That was June 1991 ,..an awesome month !! More amazing gigs would follow,..and then comes the legendary one we all know ,..at the Hermosa Saloon August 16, 1991 !! The one you have all seen online ,..all around the world !!  THE CLASSIC !

Metal: Do you think this guy Aaronson ripped off G.e. ?? Do you really believe these guys at Geffen just signed Nirvana ,..all because of you guys ,.? You think YOU ARE REALLY THE ONE WHO REALLY INVENTED GRUNGE HUH ?? AND SO TOO ,.do a lotta people back in the South bay,..??

Hagins; "Well ,...look at the footage from Hermosa Saloon,..that is EXACTLY THE WAY WE LOOKED SINCE ABOUT SEPTEMBER 1990 ,..ME, Ted, and a drummer,.. We would film ourselves, take endless pictures,.. record endless songs, albums, and everybody in town gloated about us,.. YOU TELL ME BRO !,, I THINK Nirvana had similar ideas about rock ,..because they were three guys just coincidentally,..who loved punk rock,..and hated metal too,.,..AND ALL THAT THAT WEIRD TIME !....only they weren't from Los Angeles,..which was all metal,..they were from Seattle !! a better place to be from,...at that IMPORTANT time,..IN ROCK'S HISTORY !! WE MADE THE critical mistake of being From Redondo ,..lol,.

METAL JIMMY; THAT GIG AUGUST 16, 1991,..it sticks with me,..and alotta' people,..so many people,..because of the similarities,... both you and Kurt had these troubled family and childhood backgrounds shit,.,..so alike !! Both weird poets,..!! So strange man,.

Hagins; Yeah,.. I remember ,..We mailed that to Craig ,, we printed up all these copies of that show,..because I "Knew" it was so amazing , My brother Geoff filmed it,..he never liked my band,..but he understood that gig; HE LIKED THAT SHOW !! ,..we had played thousands of gigs,.. but that one was so small and intimate,,.SO SPECIAL ,...it really displayed my genius , vision, for the future of G.e. ,..the future of ALL ROCK !! BUT THEN,..'IT' HAPPENED,..

METAL; That day you saw Nirvana on Mtv,..

Hagins; Yeah,..Flipper confronted me,, he chased me around some cars saying he was gonna beat my ass,..he said; "You got our whole shit stolen Hagins" ,.I'll never forget it,.. I called Aaronson and left him threatening voice-mails,."I was like what the fuck dude,..? You guys can sign us too then !!" Then I found out who this Gary was; "It was Gary Gersh THE A & R GUY AT GEFFEN,. ,..the guy who SIGNED NIRVANA ,... I THINK Craig gave him all our shit,..they built it from there,..they saw how organized we were, that we filmed all our shit, took pics,.. We were pros at a level and we didn't even know it,... nobody at the time thought indie rock could do anything,.. these guys "Knew" from STUDYING G.e. ,..OUR FILMS, OUR PICS, OUR BAND,.,..that alternative rock ,..COULD WORK !!!,..AND IT DID TOO !! 

AND IT'S FUNNY,.. because so many people had laughed at me,..especially my own family,..who were never really all that supportive,.. they thought I was an idiot,..told me to dress nicer and shit,..gimme a break,.. sheesh ,.. there were Douchebags tellin' me back then I should dress like Vince Neil,..lol 

Metal ; I believe you bro,... I believe it's all true ,.. but I wonder why they never signed you, never gave G.e. its rightful chance ,..
Why the happenstance ??

Hagins: I don't know what or WHY it all happened bro,..just God,..or maybe the Rock gods,.. and it's so weird,..because it's just like me and a few close intimate people who really know and talk about this shit,..at all,..it's really weird,.. I will never really understand it ,.. many nights thinking about it,..it's like Dave Mustaine being kicked from Metallica type o' shit,..or Pete Best,.. Beatles,.very odd ,.. Later, when I found out Kurt killed himself in that Greenhouse,, that was quite ironic, poetic, and stunning,..almost like there is a Monster God of Our Universe,..who messes with every one ,..or maybe just me,..like the Truman show,.. I once had this dream,, God appeared to me, and He was like " I got yer back bro",...

Metal; BUT,.... Life went on for G.e. though,..and for one more year; 1992,..

Hagins: 1992 was like  this desperate year,.. I just threw out all the stops ,..and went for it,...recorded like 50 songs,... but it was too late,.. G.e. were the "Leaders" of the whole scene ,..but suddenly, we were like complete unknowns,.. I mean people didn't even laugh at us,..We were gone,..from first,..straight to last,.. Grunge and Alternative were suddenly all over the radio AND MTV,.. ,, not just Nirvana ,..but all that other weak shit,..I mean I hated Pearl Jam and those other bands,..to Kurt and ME; WE KNEW FAKES,.. and Eddie Vedder was a fucking FAKE ,..IF EVER THERE WAS ONE !!

METAL; I wanna go back to late 1991,..and talk about "Brandy" before we conclude ,..because I see you are getting pissed,.. now,.. Clear the air here bro; what was that Song about ?? 

Hagins ; BRANDY DONATZ !! VR !! NAH ,..JUST KIDDING !!
