- Jason Todd talks with Mike Virus of Cheap Sex. We discuss their 20 year anniversary of ‘Launch Off To War’, upcoming festival appearances, his time in The Virus and Evacuate, his record label Evacuate Records, and other Punk Rock Talk.
This was huge for the listeners! Thank you
Man all of Mike's bands were all so good from the virus to evacuate. Again another punk rock friend from the stops in texas and corpitos!
Great show. You’re a great interviewer. Stoked to see the Havoc back!
Such a good interview especially from members of two of my favorite bands havoc and the virus/cheap sex
I played in a band in the early 2000s called riot cuntrol and have shared the stage with both the the havoc and cheap sex I remember opening up for cheap sex early 2000s at this small coffee shop called smart city grinds in azusa ca it was April fools day and was my 1st show that wasn't in a back yard oo man the nervs
And the havoc I belived we played with at venue in down town pomona ca called the tiki room that is no longer there
your wall looks like mine.! never liked lower class brats but i have all those records. punx unite 2 was life changing for me in 2002. cheers!!
Hello from Panama! I still have your. Road Warrior 7" EP in my collection. I ordered it online from Facedown in 2004. It is a treasure to me..
Great stuff! Love it!
Good ole Mike tells it as it is. Definition of working class parent and punk. I was always inspired by how he makes decisions for his family and career. It’s helped my life too. It’s funny, I’ve seen some pictures of him with his eyes rolled back as he described. He isn’t there haha. I feel it, we all have a vise. He almost met up with me in his area when I was on a business trip in LA area too. Humble dude.
Hey that would be super cool to get the Roberts brothers from Discharge, or Robo from Black flag.. literally any interview with punk artists is cool.
52:30 fuck i was hoping it was riot fest in Chicago
We’re you guys talking about action from Ottawa? I’ve tried reaching out to Andy’s new band about that second lp, is there anyways to get ahold of those mp3s?
Yes we were. No clue about getting the mp3s.
@@havocpunks probably my favorite band off punkcore besides you guys and I think chaotic alliance..Do you know if mikes got the songs still?
@@hotwirerecords Yeah, they were a good band. Chaotic Alliance as well. Mike probably does still have the songs. You could ask him by sending a DM to the Cheap Sex IG.
Hell yeah! Ask Josiah if he’s still got that Memphis guitar I sold him in Yorba Linda!!
ACTION were from Toronto. They use to be in a band called The Class that had more of an Oi! influence. I actually prefer their old sound before they became ACTION, you can check out some of the old songs here (th-cam.com/play/PLYofkFjGTYy9bdKKT8q98ZKHGgfQGFl77.html), I uploaded a few that are impossible to find on TH-cam. They had one album that was released on a small record label from Toronto that's impossible to find now days. The drummer Greg, commented on one of my uploads. Here's his channel maybe you can reach out to him: th-cam.com/channels/h2EinoV__xuKUDVwd7T2SQ.html
Couldn't the Action album have been a digital release? Sometime down the line?
sure, but that would be up to the band to make available.
@@1984knockingatyourdoor Oh, that would be a cool thing to put out there! I am really intrigued by the departure in sound comment and would be very interested to hear which direction they were moving in.
@@robsop if any of you want the album shoot me your email ill send it to you my names greg i played drums in the band.
@@gregwhite2808 Definitely want it and willing to pay Greg.
@@keenanaldridge3007 ill just send it to you if youd like
For anyone asking about the Action stuff you should i jusy post it on TH-cam?
Greg, I think so. I have had a few people ask about the tracks since this interview but Its not my place to share the files. Hope you are well!
@@1984knockingatyourdoor hope you are to my man! I agree with what you said definitely different and might not sit well with the people who were in to the first record.
