Toadcast #90 – Honeytrap Toad Session
We’d already recorded the FOUND Toad Session earlier this same day, and Honeytrap had just recorded their session with Off the Beaten Tracks. So basically, the sun was baking and we were all absolutely shit-faced. Consequently, to describe the interview as any sort of conversation as opposed to some kind of deranged, cataclysmic cluster-fuck would be to massively flatter it. In all honesty, this is a complete and completely splendid mess – enjoy!
Again, all the videos can be seen on the Song, by Toad Vimeo or YouTube pages, and the photo galleries can be perused on our Flickr page. Dylan from Blueback Hotrod took all the photos, and the set he has posted has a few more pics than the one on the Toad Flickr page, so go and have a look to view the full set. The whole interview is below, in the podcast file, and after that there are all the session mp3s which you are welcome to pass around as you see fit. Good luck with the interview; it’s fucking mental.

this hadn’t occured to me until now, but should it turn out that this band have inadvertantly ruined the final series of Battlestar Galactica for me I will hunt them down and do terrible things to them…..just saying.
You managed to listen to that whole podcast without your brain exploding, then?
I thought it was well funny.
I also think the idea of a combined Meursault/Honeytrap covers band specialising in the music of Bowie and Prefab Sprout has promise.
Oh dear god.
That was a fun night.
The montage video is a work of genius.
Is there any sort of awards ceremony or Oscars for these sort of things?
“And the Oscar for out of control drunken mayhem goes to…”
We’d clean up every year.
