Tubes
well in the South we didn’t have a big turnout,
except for Atlanta. We had a huge turnout in
Atlanta. We had been there before. But the
other places like Knoxville, Richmond,
Charlotte, N.C. — what do they know from
Tubes? It’s frustrating to play places like that
and work your butt off and thrill these people
and they just kind of look at you like you’re
crazy. It's slow in the South — like Mexico —
everything is manana.
The traveling is pretty hard. Leaving after
the show, driving all night on the bus, trying
to sleep on the bus is pretty difficult.
Emerald: What’s the weirdest experience
you’ve had on tour?
FW: Oh man, we’ve had a million. We’ve
had mothers come and picket our shows
because they thought we were a porno-band.
This was years ago, in Minneapolis — those
Bible-belt cities, you know. We’ve been bann
ed from a lot of cities, mostly in the South.
This tour, on the third of July, we had
played Trenton, N.C., which is a little city next
door to Pope Air Force Base and Fort Bragg.
We played this all-day festival, starring The
Tubes and The Outlaws. We were top-billed.
We went on and it was like playing in Viet
nam. The stage was a little ratty piece of shit
out in the middle of somebody’s cornfield. It
was like Woodstock... in the middle of a cor
nfield — chopped down — and the kids were,
like, behind a fence in front of the stage. It
wasn’t barbed wire, but it might as well have
been. It was fucking railroad ties and wire
about ten feet high. Behind that was about
10,000 drunken Marines. I mean, no shirts, no
hair, sunburnt to a crisp and drunk out of
their fucking minds. Just completely fucking
plastered.
Emerald: Were you worried?
FW: We didn’t figure the fence would
hold We didn’t know if they’d like us or not.
The Outlaws killed them. They do all that
Southern boogie music and we thought they
would throw shit at us. But it turned out they
loved us. The Marines were just crazed for the
dancing girls and climbing up the fence
Security guys were pushing them back to the
other side. There was literally, a foot, about
18 inches of beer cans on the ground. Out in
this gigantic field there was nothing but beer
cans, passed-out bodies everywhere and
drunken Marines hustling chicks as drunk as
they were, falling down together. Oh, man, it
was completely insane. Some crazed Marines
blew up a car in the parking lot. It caught on
fire and spread to about 25 other cars which
all blew up. It was truly unbelievable.
Emerald: Well, I don’t think it’ll be like
that here.
FW: I'm looking forward to getting back
on the West Coast. It’s been tough out here.
The East Coast is tough. There’s a lot of peo
ple — it’s all kind of cramped But it’s good
because you reach so many people.
Emerald: Has the character of your au
dience changed?
FW: It’s completely changed. We get
criticized for copping-out and we do have
some commercial songs, but the rest of the
show is totally crazed. I mean it’s full
production, more than ever before. We’re still
drawing the old fans. They know we re going
to do a big show. We don’t disappoint them.
We do all the crazy numbers: “Wongo” and
the other ones on the album. Then we do the
hits. “She’s a Beauty" and “Talk To Ya Later”
and that gets all the kids. Teenagers, there’s
tons of teenagers, it’s unbelievable. Girls
everywhere, teenage girls, I’m going wild.
Emerald: Well, be good, 15 will get you
20.
FW: I’m trying, but in some states in the
South 16 is legal. I always check on that.
Emerald: Who’s your supporting act now?
FW: We were touring with the Plimsouls,
but they bailed, they couldn’t take it. People
threw shit at them every night. . . screamed at
them get off the stage.’ They had a real hard
time.
Emerald: You must have compassion for
supporting acts.
FW: You get fucked when you’re a sup
porting act. You don’t get a sound check half
the time. You don't get to use all the lights,
all the sound, or all the mixing console. In the
past we’ve always headlined and now we re
doing a bunch of (David) Bowie shows. We’re
doing Seattle with Bowie, Vancouver, Edmin
ton and a show in Syracuse And Journey —
we've done support shows with Journey. So
we know what happens to support acts —
you get fucked
Emerald: We’re looking forward to seeing
The Tubes here in Eugene.
FW: We didn’t play Eugene on the
"Completion Backward Principle" Tour We ll
be there — with the earthquake.

nam,” AuCoin said Tuesday.
"Everything in that secret
session," he said "and more
importantly everything I saw
during my trip in Nicaragua
points to fact that the United
States is moving towards a
war footing."
When U.S. advisers were
first deployed to train the
Nicaraguan rebels, Reagan
said limited rebel troops
would be used for the specific
purpose of interdicting gun
running to the rebels in El
Salvador.
AuCoin said he witnessed
no evidence of any captured
arms. Instead, he saw
evidence of annihilated crops,
warehouses and power sta
tions and viewed forces of
troops (10,000) equivalent to
"what is approximately need
ed for a full-scale invasion of
the Nicaraguan government."
The Reagan administration
has done nothing to en
courage diplomatic solutions,
AuCoin implicated To prove
his point, he said Reagan sent
an eight-ship task force to the
