Great interview 🤘What kind of world is this where living legends who have influenced so many bands and made so many people happy for the past 40 years have to worry about making enough money just to get by? I wrote DRI a letter around 1988 or 89 telling them how much they meant to me, and Kurt wrote me back with a hand-written, 2-page letter, and man, that meant everything to this scrawny teenage metal kid living out in the country. I still have the letter today :)

[@MetalRemains]

That’s an awesome experience. It shows how much these guys care about their fan base, even early on! Thanks for watching. Stay Metal! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@julioocasioalbino1782]

Love DRI one of the best punk metal band ever

[@3ofus135]

I met Kurt in 1992 at a show at the Omni club in Oakland. He was so cool...exactly like he is here.

[@redwelder]

Nuclear Blast or Metal Blade should give them a record deal ! Damn i Love DRI we want new Music!!!

[@Mr_Clean]

Crossover, four of a kind, thrash zone, were all on metal blade

[@redwelder]

@@Mr_Clean yes i know , enigma too but I’m just saying they could put them on there again or nuclear blast we’d love some new D.R.I. …hell even one of those European labels Napalm could pick them up

[@MikeHunt90731]

This was a treat! I partied with Kurt and the rest of the band New years Eve 1989 at their Manager Ron's house in West Covina, good times

[@biggoathorns]

[@Phuh_Queue]

Been moshing to DRI since the 80s east bay thrash scene……..always a class act!

[@PaddyByrne931]

Love this band

[@karbon4437]

DRI For Ever !

[@rogerrabbitonpcp6021]

Kurt is straight n honest

[@LeopoldoAvalos]

hace 3 dias los vi en Munich. Los tipos no paran de girar. Excelente show. Increible que no haya una compañia que les ofrezca un buen contrato para grabar.

[@MetalRemains]

Es una verdadera pena porque es una banda que aprovecharía muchísimo los recursos de una disquera grande. Muchas gracias por tu comentario. Stay Metal!

[@noforgiveaction4694]

Saw DRI last night in Hawaii, freakin wild show

[@riceshaddow]

Met Kurt in 2022, they came down here in South Texas, he’s really awesome in person

[@streetsshallprovide2029]

Very good interview

[@MetalRemains]

Thanks for watching!

[@elsalvadorinmortal]

Que buena entrevista, diablos siempre quise ver a D.R.I. ellos tienen razón cuando hablan de promotores algunos son muy desordenados, lastimosamente pagamos los Fans y hay muchos que están en contra de ellos, pero la experiencia y los años, les hace ser más serios al momento de llegar a un acuerdo y establecer un contrato, que bueno que se mencionó a Thrash Family y las Pupusas, envidia de la buena Meme

[@MetalRemains]

Hola Javier muchas gracias por ver en la entrevista y por comentar, disculpa la demora en contestar pero andábamos ocupados y quería leer bien lo que habías puesto. Te agradezco las palabras. Thrash or Die!

[@dimitrisdm6997]

DRI legends

[@zeikerd]

bad ass! I love DRI....

[@toxicyouthofficial1769]

Of course we want new stuff

[@refluxcatalyst7190]

"You stole our logo!" "yeah, of course!" -laughter. Kurt knows whats up.

[@MATTMEISTER1]

HE SAID ITS BETTER 2 SEE THE WORLD,THAN STAY@HOME!

[@danielluera5932]

So Who's starting a Go Fund Me For DRI to have a new album?

[@bassboi2001]

❤❤❤❤THRASHARD❤❤❤❤❤

[@gorkasjoso]

Hola amigo. Gracias por la entrevista. Sería posible traducirla con Audio al español. O con subtítulos. Soy fans de DRI y está es una muy buena entrevista.

[@MetalRemains]

Hola Omar! Muchas gracias por la sugerencia, vamos a trabajar en unos subtítulos, te confirmo cuando estén listos. Stay Metal! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@peehandshihtzu]

Saw them in the early 2000's in Seattle, the whole band was cool except the drummer who was being a deva over a drum stick. I mean we all have our moments right???

[@guillermomontoyo]

I wanna get dat kinda jean jacket wid medal patches

[@anfrankogezamartincic1161]

" I am not from America, i'm from Salvador". Isn't Salvador part of South/Middle America?

[@MetalRemains]

Thank you for pointing this out! El Salvador is in Central America as in the subcontinent, but it’s not in America as in the country 😁😁

[@this-is-slammin-549]

No DRI without Felix

[@FalLenpug]
