Bathroom Break Podcast #17 - Deron Miller: Musician - 96 Bitter Beings

[@chrisholian5778]

I met Deron after a 96BB show. I simply just wanted to tell him how much of a fan I was but we ended up talking about how I lost my mom last year 2 cancer.Deron cared so much about my story. This dude hugged me as I cried and vented to him about my life(keep in mind I’m a 24 year old grown man) everyone please support this dude, he’s a true musician and a great guy.

[@phillipthethird3424]

deron is sorta nice to me but I get what your saying. sorry for your lost man, lost my brother to congestive heart failure :( Nov 2019 :( and 24 I'm 27 so your sorta young

[@jamesb1988]

Judging by the song 'Sara's Mask' I'm guessing he could somewhat relate. Still awesome to hear, have always loved DM. He's an emotional dude who wears his heart on his sleeve which is too much for some people to deal with (coughchadjesscough) but I think it's all the more reason to like him.

[@williamrogers9004]

@@jamesb1988 i don't think Jess so much, they're like brothers. I think Deron and Chad just can't work together

[@angellopes9353]

@Chris Holian and @phillip the third Glad to read about all your experiences with Deron and I thought is amazing and pretty nice about how he treated both of you, and what I can say from my heart is I'm sorry for your losts. All I can wish from you both is May God comfort your hearts. Especially that you guys be strong and be ok.

I heard deron sucked a couple cocks in his lifetime

Sweet. Keep em coming Raab! Get us a Dico interview PLEASE!!

[@peterohanraha-hanrahan3022]

He's in PA for the holidays so here's hoping!!

[@jnelson145]

Raab said on his instagram that Dico isn't interested :(

[@doejohn915]

Thanks for doing this interview. Deron is one of my favorite guitar players and such a riff master. CKY achieved something 99.9% of bands never do which is have a unique sound. Deron should be proud of that.

[@brayingdonkey5972]

THE SWEET SOUNDS OF CKY!!!

Dico! That would make for a great podcast

Deron Miller. So nice to see what he's up to now. Always have, always will love this man. Great visionary.

[@troyisfilming]

This was a great conversation with Deron, always loved his vocals on cKy.

[@harminoffendl]

Two hours? Damn! Thanks Raab!

[@JRose342]

This was awesome! Everything I wanted to know about the behind the scenes of the sound of CKY. One of my favorite interviews on KZbin from one of my favorite musicians

[@1fightdragons]

Same thoughts exactly

[@zachmcnamer3563]

When Deron said ”I don’t know if your listeners care” I said out loud “ Fuck yeah we care! Keep talking!!”

[@deangelobayley7079]

if anyone found this podcast..most likely its people that really do wanna hear all of it lol

[@bradpity]

poor dude is so used to getting shit on & told nobody cares abt what he has to say lol man that’s sad

[@jtapp2222]

This is my favorite episode so far! Deron is my main influence on guitar/singing/songwriting. Also I'm loving the quality of this video and the camera editing Raab!

[@Megadextrious]

Awww man I love Deron so much! Thank you for this, it's so nice to know you guys are still friends :) even if this was like 3 years ago

[@DrFumesta]

Didn't know this podcast existed. Thank Deron for the sub

[@hartj87]

This was rad to listen to, 96 QBB made me want to play guitar so I loved the guitar talk; I've been playing for 19 years because of it! Thank you for the amazing interviews.

[@tonyasylum32182]

I love the longer format of this one, you get so much more out of it rather than just an hour or less. If it's interesting to listen to people really will listen for hourssssss

[@tousled_birb7089]

Thanks for adding the song at the end of this! I had a hard time figuring out why CkY's newest album just felt underwhelming to me. Don't get me wrong, still love the guys but the current sound is just missing something for me. After listening to this, I can safely say it's Deron's sound. I will definitely be checking out 96 Bitter Beings after this!

[@GooFishLA]

Sales of wound G strings just skyrocketed! Great interview

this was a refreshing great interview. the dialogue between you was chipping away at the depth of the creative process in all things sky/96/deron. thank you for the entertainment

[@NightMare_MediaGroup]

It’s funny how Deron talks about being a big fan of Malevolent Creation, and now he’s their frontman…

[@1fightdragons]

Fantastic episode, Raab and Deron. This one was really special and quite hilarious at points.

there's the cky documentary but deron really nose dives deep into this

[@Rickshaw199]

Awesome podcast! I used to be obsessed with CKY and that style of guitar playing. Still to this day I will never use anything but a wound G string on my guitars. Thanks for all the years of great music deron!

[@FrequentlyFried]

Great interview

[@Garettsfritz]

I wish I went to school with personalities like yours.

[@satchmogames5189]

I always wondered about the g string tone in 96QBB. Thats sick!

[@galacticjuicedaddy1305]

D'addario make packs with a wound G string they're really fucking good

[@MikeCampbellJr.Guitar]

Also if you have trouble finding wound G sets that are close to proper tension for D standard; a trick is to buy a set of 7 string's and you can use the first four strings of the set and the last 2 for your A and D string. So you end up with something along the lines of 56-11 or 54-10 if you like em light. Personally I think 58-60 on the low D plays best for tight rhythms.

[@trainspotter360]

CKYs records feel very timeless. They didn’t really care about musical trends so those albums really haven’t aged at all.

[@othrerir_jussi]

It's really nice seeing the other side of the people that we grew up with. More than the CKY/Jackass thing.

[@samuelstoner1838]

That was cool...I met Darrin at a show in Mechanicsburg PA. Nice guy he signed a dollar bill for me

I got to meet both of these guys at Loaded, a dive bar in Hollywood. Probably one of the most surreal experiences....seeing Raab bob his head to Deron's new band lineup.

[@TheMortician]

This was amazing. I totally forgot it was him that gave me the idea to change the G string on my guitar to a wound one. Loved this entire video.

[@dennisclarkofficial]

Just discovered the BB podcast, like 1 year late but still.. been listening non stop the last few days. Loving the Camp Pain record and stoked about Deron's new projects! Love his voice and iconic style and riffage. I bought an OC-3 last year so my band can basically rip off CKY

[@habitat245]

Dude the wound G sounds so much better and it’s way easier to keep in tune.

[@MrKylederp]

Way harder to bent

[@habitat245]

Not in my experience

[@LaTigerGenesis]

CKY had so much influence on me coming up in bands around West Chester. Wish the area had a stronger music community!

[@lauren.xo.]

I need Raab and Deron's secret for not aging a goddamn bit! They look just as young as they did back in the day. Much love xoxo. 🖤

Deron Miller is amazing on guitar and very underrated.

[@drownthepoor]

I had a friend who idolized him when we were in high school, had the exact model carbon fiber Parker guitar that was like $1300 same amp and all. I was at a Guitar Center a few months ago and there was a ragged out Parker for $250, couldn't believe it. I was really surprised by this interview, Deron is nothing like I would have thought he would be.

[@chris_michael_s]

@@drownthepoor haha I used to have a Parker fly and nitefly. I have a grey parker p42 now

[@ondoidlifestyle5754]

@@drownthepoor i saw this dude on KZbin who pretty much wanted to BE deron Miller. Dude dressed the same. Had the same mannerisms, same haircut, same guitar…played his songs exactly to the note. It was insane man. I’m a fan of deron but I think it’s pretty cringy to get to the point to where you change everything about yourself to try to BE that person. Deron was the reason I got into Parker guitars. I liked CKY and thought deron had a neat guitar. After playing one when I was 13, it’s all I’ll play anymore. Since the last comment I made, I’m up to 14 Parker’s now haha. If that dude still had the one he bought years ago, he would have been able to make some money on it today. I paid $1300 for my first Parker fly, used back in the day. When I was hooked on heroin, I regrettably sold both of my parkers. I paid a LOT more for the flys I have now. More than double the price of my first one. The lower end models can go for less sometimes depending on condition. I’ve seen some really low priced ones but they have issues like broken truss rods and stuff. I think the prices spiked since they don’t make them anymore though.
