Sara: For the record state your name and what you do in Lucky Boy’s Confusion.
Adam: I’m Adam, I play guitar and sing

Sara: What would you change about the current music scene?
Adam: I don’t know if I would change a whole lot. I think there is a lot of band copying each other and there is a lot of stuff on TV that is kinda a carbon copy of the other groups who are up there. I think it would be nice to see some things in television and radio that are stuff that we listen to a little bit more eclectic.

Sara: How have your fans received your newer release How To Get Out Alive?
Adam: The response has been good I think people are starting to get used to the fact that our music is not as all of the place as it was when we younger. Usually when we would put out records, ever record gets a little bit more focused and a little less eclectic and people at first would take that kinda rough now they are used to it. We got a really positive response.

Sara: What’s your favorite song on the new record?
Adam: I think it’s a song we never play is my favorite it’s called “When Bad News Gets Worse”
Sara: Is there a reason why?
Adam: Maybe cause we never play it so I’m not sick of it yet.

Sara: With every CD release is there something you try to do different personally and as a band?
Adam: I think, I don’t think it’s a conscious thing it’s just a part of progressively moving forward basically. I don’t know I think we try to get more focused and less all over the place with each record we do probably

Sara: How have you grown or changed as a musician since Lucky Boy’s Confusion started?
Adam: I don’t know I think we’re a little bit more- we know how to work with each other you know we’ve been playing with each other for so long that we know what the person is going to do next something like that when you are with the same people for so like you start have that telepathic kind of thing.

Sara: And on that you guys celebrate your 9th birthday as band in July-
Adam: Yeah
Sara: Have you accomplished everything you thought you were going to accomplish?
Adam: No, I don’t think we really had any hard goals when we start we just kinda had sort term goals like what we were going to do the next month. The only expectations we had when we started was to get a bunch of kids to come to the local YMCA or the and as things started getting bigger then we talked up record deals and once we got a record deal and that happened. We started doing this and that so it all kinda was short terms goals.
Sara: Is there a goal you really want to accomplish just overall?
Adam: I guess just be remembered. I guess just leave some of our legacy behind us.

Sara: So 9 years ago when you first started the Internet wasn’t as popular as it is right now how has the Internet changed music?
Adam: I think it makes music a lot more accessible obviously and it makes is possible for smaller bands to be successful without the help of a record label, without the help of publicists, or mass distribution. It kinda essentially the bands that are good are getting noticed and the bands that aren’t, aren’t without the help of any sort of media well, radio or television media.
Sara: So it’s a good thing?
Adam: Yeah

Sara: After the Get Happy Tour you are going on tour with Spitalfield, what do you think it’s going to be like and what do you fans have to look forward too?
Adam: I don’t know if we are going to do that tour anymore but if we did, I think it would what you can expect from a headlining Lucky Boy’s set which is 45 minutes to an hour of intense music and hopefully a lot of new stuff.

Sara: What are you plans after this or that tour?
Adam: We might put out an acoustic EP
Sara: That’ll be cool.
Adam: Or maybe and acoustic full length. We recorded a live show in Chicago, we might put that out.

Sara: How would you describe your music in 3 words?
Adam: I can’t say Lucky Boy’s Confusion can I?
Sara: No.
Adam: Abrasive, sloppy, and honest.

Sara: Name one artist you thing has made an unforgettable contribution to music.
Adam: Joe Strummer.

Sara: Do you have any advice for younger bands?
Adam: Yeah, I think instead of listening to whatever is on the radio or whatever is popular they should delve into other influences maybe search a bit for a person more obscure things to listen to. If that doesn’t happen, I just think everyone is going to just start sounding like each other and it’s just going to be really boring. I think younger bands have an opportunity to be unique and different. I think if they search a little bit deeper and dug through their parent’s record or looked up some b-sides or things from the 70s, 80s, earlier 90s and took influence from that I think it could be a really interesting music revolution.

Sara: So if you are walking down the street and you meet a magic genie out of the blue and you are granted 3 wishes what would they be and why?
Adam: I think I would wish for a Budweiser bottomless tap in my living room, I think I would wish that my record player would still work because it’s broken and I can’t find anyone to fix it, and then I think I would wish for a lot more wishes.
Sara: Okay, that’s a little cheating but-
Adam: Yeah I know
Sara: But it’s okay
Adam: Everyone if they had 3 wishes would always make one of the wishes wish for more wishes.
Sara: Yeah
Adam: So c’mon.

Sara: Do you have anything to say to the Internet world?
Adam: Not really no, I think like I said earlier as far as Internet goes I think it’s really helping out bands. I think though the whole music for free thing is sort of it’s helpful, it helps little bands get big and bands that are already huge it doesn’t effect them but I think it sort of screws the middleman that need people to buy the records so they can go on tour and eat dinner and stuff like that. That’s my comment on that
