LittleBook:
Why and How did you become a DJ @ Pirate cat Radio??
Bassy Stacy:
I became a Pirate Cat DJ because I had a metal show before on the Fox radio
station in Santa Rosa called the mosh pit. I love music. All kinds. I
fortunately grew up with metal.
LB:
What's your most memorable moment as DJ??
BS:
My Most memorable moments would be when I interviewed Jason Gellis (Suburban
Death Camp & WarKrime) cause he is so witty. Also, when I interviewed Dave
Brokie (singer of Gwar) he is so funny.
LB: What do you drink during the show? BS: Beer & water :)
LB:
What’s the hardest thing about being at an underground radio station??
BS:
The hardest thing would be that the record company's & some bands don't take
you seriously yet. Also, you have to pay dues & work hard to get bands on
the air.
LB:
What's the best thing about being at an underground radio station?? BS: The best thing would be that you can say & do pretty much whatever you want. Pretty much....
LB:
What do you want people to know about your show, what are you doing next?? BS: I want people to know that my show is about hard music & will always be different & entertaining. I am not a professional fake dj. I am real. I am having fun. Next I am hoping to get more live bands in the studio. Has to be acoustic which metal bands can do if they tried.
LB:
How can people listen to your show?? BS: People can listen to my show Sunday's 3pm to 5pm pacific time in S.F, some parts of L.A. & Berlin. Also, online @ www. piratecatradio. com & on iTunes.
LB:
Favorite San Francisco Band or a memorable show?? BS: My favorite S.F. band right now is actually Saros. My favorite show would be when some members of Destroyer (kiss tribute band) played live.
LB:
Favorite venue to see a show in SF?? BS: My favorite venue to see a show in S.F. is The Great American Music Hall. I've played there too.
LB:
You also play music too, right??
BS:
Yes, I play bass, and work on my own stuff. |

Moving the Band From Seattle to San Francisco in 1979 The Lewd along with other local SF Bay Area bands like Flipper, VKTMs, No Alternative, Dead Kennedys helped create the 80's Hardcore sound SF became known for. While The Lewd's records have been out of print for years, songs from the "Kill Yourself" single have reappeared on a few '70s punk compilations. Recently, all their material was compiled onto a bootleg vinyl release entitled "The Lewd - Complete Discography". At last, the Lewd's material has been officially made available on CD by Seattles own Chuckie Boy Records, including a slew of never-before-released early demos and outtakes. The Lewd have had their songs covered by bands such as The Loudmouths, Turbonegro, The Dipshits and The Safety Pins. Yet no one can totally recreate that demented Lewd sound, so check them out Live Nov. 28th @ the Bottom of the Hill, All Ages show!!
