Heavy Metal Parking Lot: Van Halen

Michael Butler hosts a great (and regularly updated) metal podcast called the Rock and Roll Geek Show (you can subscribe via iTunes). In addition to being a podcasting nut, Butler just recently got off the road, touring as the bassist for the recently reunited Jetboy. Butler got the gig because he also plays in American Heartbreak with Jetboy guitarist Billy Rowe. I also just learned recently that Butler played with the thrash band Exodus from 1990-1992.

Butler and his Rock and Roll Geek Show co-host Casey Crenshaw (who also is in American Heartbreak) took their video camera down to a Van Halen reunion show and conducted some parking lot interviews. The results are pretty hilarious, especially the part where Crenshaw thinks he’s going to get hit (fast forward to the 4:58 mark).
