  • Jason Hook, guitarist of Five Finger Death Punch, stops by and talks in depth about how he got in the music world. His story began in Canada and then things shifted into overdrive when he made his way over to Los Angeles, CA. Hook also shares what it took to put together the documentary Hired Gun, touring with Five Finger Death Punch and his time touring with Alice Cooper. He'll also be our next guest on My Favorite Riff This Thursday.

    I didn't know who Jason was until Hired Gun. ( which was a brilliant doc btw ) But now am a huge fan. What a fantastic player but also a very down to earth guy. Much respect and great interview!!!

    This by far one of the best interviews i have ever watched. I'm a huge fan of The Crue and now in the last 8 yrs, FFDP is by far one of my favourite bands. Seen both bands a number of times.Both bands are amazing Live. Live music is the ultimate way to experience any band. This interview has a lot of everything. I love talking about great musicians, and these 2 Nikki and Jason seem to me like their old friends. Enjoy and wouldn't it be great to see this 2 collaborate?? Enjoy, you'll be hearing from me a lot more. Cheers folks!

    This is the BEST interview I've seen in so long! Real talk, legit discussion from some serious industry heavyweights. Great insight for fans! Rock stars are people too! You guys are under so much pressure, but it's worth it to you so you can do what you love...all for our enjoyment. This makes me appreciate every entertainer so much more! Thanks for doing what you do! ☮️❤️🤘

    This was a great 'interviewsation' (interview/conversation) that gave me a much better understanding of the Rock Star life and challenges. I have a tremendous respect for Jason Hook for his passion in creating this documentary and will definitely check it out. I really like FFDP and hope Ivan can get and keep it together. Great Show! Keep them coming!

    A great interview, Nikki! Jason Hook - a great player and a great guy. Hired Gun - one of the best rockumentaries ever. SO interesting to hear you guys talk about the reality of touring, and how the long hauls can affect you. John Lennon said the same thing about how there's always someone (from the moment you leave the hotel room to the moment you shut the door in the next one) who needs something from you. It ain't just 2 hours a night on stage.

  • @tracymuller3983
    @tracymuller3983 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have to say I do understand what it’s like when you’re on tour and it finishes and then you’re like “Well what do I do now?” I’m not in a band I’m actually still in school but I work in my schools musicals. I’m crew not cast but 2-3 times a week and on an odd Saturday or full school day we’ll be rehearsing. So after the musicals finish Im kinda like, well what do I do with all this free time now? I spent 2 and a half hours after school backstage, and it’s like so weird when I no longer do that. So in a way I can understand what musicians are like when their tours end. I hope that one day I can be a musician performing on stage, I really look up to Jason Hook

    I have to comment after hearing about Jason jumping off the drum riser in converse shoes. And he and Nikki should write a Rule Book of what NOT to do on stage. While I was touring with " the impotent sea snakes " , We did a Huge show playing the Wacken Open Air Fest. Well.... I jumped down to the lower level at the end of the set... Total jump first and land... While I was wearing my "Mad Max" motorcycle boots with the metal plate on the shin. Remember those? Well I ended up slicing the top of my shins as the metal slid through. I knew it , but kept on holding that last chord as to not ruin the DVD they were recording.... Good stuff

    I think 5 finger death punch is cheesy bad metal but I love Jason Hook. He is super cool. I respect 5 finger's success. Just not my type of music but man he is a cool dude.

  • @thehighhopes5336
    @thehighhopes5336 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I met Jason years ago when he was playing with Vince Neil. They played in Baltimore and Jason came out after the show. He was really nice to everyone and I talked to him for a long time. Now he blew up and I'm happy for him . His band sucks but he's not bad.

    He left out Berklee and Mandy Moore! I want to know what that was like touring with Mandy Moore as opposed to some of the other acts he’s played with, and I’d also like to know about how he felt when Death Punch got their first big stage show, with giant props, explosions and fire (since he’s a big KISS/Motley/Alice fan)!

    I love The Hired Guns I think what Billy Joel did was rotten she was my go to in music. I've always been more of a heavy metal hard rock type of guy but Billy Joel was my soul music Escape music and I'm hurt emotionally and spiritually by what he has done to his band members. They're not hired guns their band members their people. It sucks that I can't listen to that asshole anymore it's a whole part of my life and I loved and some selfish son of a bitch have to take it from me. Thanks Billy hole

    I like Hook as a player. But I can't stand his band, Five Finger Death Punch. I don't know what it is..but something is strange about thing. They are kind of 'hick' or something. I've always referred to them as the Insane Clown Posse of rock. There is just something 'try hard' about them.
