Something
Moldy That Way Goes -Matt Kennedy & Noah Salasnek
What happens when you drink the water in Mexico? Walk through
the ghetto alone, at night? Go see a Fungus show? You take chances.
The Fungus has arrived and it's sweeping through towns like the
plague. This star studded group has its eyes set on the big time.
They wrote 6 songs and headlined at 4 large venues. Since then
they've added 3 songs and are on there way to cut a few tracks.
These guys aren't messing around, they mean to inflect some lethal
sound on the unsuspecting music scene.
I met up with the band at Palm's house in South lake. They were
getting ready for a show when I tried to get some info from them.
The band doesn't usually allow interviews, but gave Heckler an exclusive.
Heckler Magazine: So who are the members of Fungus?
Palm Dog: Well ah Bob Klein is on drums. Brad Holmes is bass. Dan
(Poz) Pozniak is lead. And I sing.
H.M What kind of musicBrad Holmes: Punk
P.D Hey Salaz, you call any chicks for tonight?
Noah Salasnek: Yeah Dori is suppose to bring some friends.
P.D Is she bringing that one...Jen?
N.S Yep
Jeff Toland: Hey Palm you got any mags?
P.D Yeah there's some new dirty one's on the rack.
B.H Any one bring beer?
N.S Yeah in the fridge, go easy.
J.T Here's one, I'm going to the head.
H.M So who are your influences?
P.D No one, were going big.
Bob Klein: Hey Heckler, wanna head out back?
H.M Yeah, we're over this.Noah takes over the interview at this point, and we're not sure
where the thin line between fact and fiction is from here on out, or
on the AV interview either. Ed.
N.S. Hey Palm, what's all this business about big feet?
P.D. Ease up buddy.
N.S. Why did you try to milk me for four G's on the van that you rolled?
P.D. Cause you're the bald turkey that was supposed to drive
N.S. What's up with Simon Woodstock, is he in your band?
P.D. He sent me some sample lyrics but we'll have NUN of that. I
figure one clown is better than two.
N.S. Who do you respect for snowboarding?

N.S. All right then.
P.D. I'm so bad, I'm the Palm Dog. I do big transfers.
N.S. Are you friends with Chris Roach?
P.D. Yeah, he taught me grassers. No, I'm just kidding, I invented
that move and it's called the "Palm-Air," but he's pretty rad, he's got
the new school skate style bro.
H.M. So you ride at Boreal right?
P.D. No, I ski at Kirkwood or Heavenly with Glen Plake you idiot, get
it straight. The only time I snowboard is at contests, and I win.
