Video Matt headed down to San Francisco this weekend to meet up with our friends The Fall of Troy and they discussed everything from what the band members miss while they’re on tour to the band’s burgeoning list of endorsements. Check it above then check our YouTube channel for past TFoT interviews and a shit ton more.

One of the more tiresome aspects of having any sort of job related to the music industry is the obligatory “MAN ARE YOU LUCKY!!!!! YOU GET PAID TO SIT AROUND AND LISTEN TO MUSIC!!!!111″ conversation that happens 345349 times a week. Though, on it’s face, that statement is more or less false, I have to admit that there are indeed times that, yes, I get paid to sit around and listen to music (like this morning when I drank my coffee and stared longingly out the window listening to the spectacular forthcoming Copeland B-sides and rarities collection Dressed Up & In Line). But this took many years of hard work and sitting around NOT getting paid to listen to music, but rather do other less fun things underneath the people getting paid to listen to music (many of which I still have to do, ie: THIS POST)…

ANYWAY, the point to all of this is that, instead of just whining to me in bars and at shows about how much you hate working at Cingular and totally LOVE MUSIC and BANDS and BLAHBLAH why don’t you get off your ass and get a fucking job in the music industry. “BUT HOW?>??!!!” comes to chorus of helpless fucktards. Well how about this: our friends over at the amazing Equal Vision Records are currently looking to fill not one, but TWO staff positions which you can read about here. Equal Vision is of course home to a litany of amazing bands, such as Circa Survive, The Fall of Troy, etc, etc. NOW’S YOUR CHANCE MAN. I mean, you’ll have to move to Albany, but hey, at least you’ll be able to check out the Tulip Festival.

Interview with The Fall of Troy from The Boardwalk in Orangevale, CA…yesterday!!! How’s that for some realtime SON? ON a related note: since when did Video Matt get so fitted up, rocking all sorts of ill ass gear and shit? ON THE GRIND MAN
