But I like thinking about this as a post-genre power trio because we're three people with three equal parts, three equal voices in the band, and one thing I get from both of these guys and I've gotten for years before I'd even gotten to know them was the fact that you don't have to have these divisions in music, the best thing about music is when you don't have these dividing lines and you can mix everything and make something new and original out of it, so that's what this band is about musically, too.
(driving drum music) (slinky powerful bass) (discordant electric guitar) - This band is called MSSV, and it's made up of me, Mike Baggetta, Stephen Hodges, on drums and vocals and effects, and then Mike Watt on bass and vocals and no effects.
Me and Watt made a record called Wall of Flowers a few years ago with a drummer named Jim Keltner, and when the record came out, I wanted to tour around that record, and Jim, being an older gentleman, doesn't wanna travel anymore, which makes a lot of sense, but we still wanted to try to do something so I called Stephen and asked if he could play drums for us and we're so lucky that he agreed and we started playing music and decided to keep it going as a separate band called MSSV, which stands for main steam stop valve.

You can collaborate, especially during the situation and it's like, musical lifeline.
This is very different for me in some situations, usually if I help other people, I play the music from the dead guy.
125 months of Stooges, but still, it was the dead guy's part Mike wrote me basslines and they're really fun to play.
So, if you're asking how, Internet.
If you're saying why, it's cause I needed it, and it's fun.
