I've been a fan of Isaac's bands since I was a teenager. So almost 20 years now. I still regularly listen to his music (and play it as a guitar player of two decades who also just picked up drums 8 years ago). I actually just learned the main Truckers Atlas drum groove and have been playing it constantly lol. Jeremiah's playing was a huge reason why I also picked up drums after playing guitar most my life. So between Isaac and Jeremiah I'd say there's a lot of inspiration to go around. I also build tube amps and guitar pedals as well as restore and repair them (and old tube radio receivers when I get the opportunity) so I absolutely get the pedal obsession. I'm one of those guys who's likely to start a pedal company, build some stuff that I put all my heart into, then go bankrupt and have all my pedals end up in the "we gotta charge you something" box lol.

After I learned his version I watched some covers and looked up some tabs and refined it from there. It's such a a fun groove to play. But learning it showed me just how much work my left foot needs. Im working on keeping time on my left foot now like Jeremiah did which will help with those off beat accents. Anyways I hope you're able to learn it quickly cause it really is such sick groove.

It’s just such a funny weird time thing, the way this one story bridged between the first interview (early in their career) and the second (after they became popular) and the fact that the article actually wasn’t making it up but rather was referring to an interview that even Isaac had long forgotten-and probably he was drunk anyway-is for some reason really funny to me. Any time I hear about vehicles striking dogs, which is surprisingly often because I live in a place where very little happens except for the dogs and cars stuff.

I remember I had a couple songs of his(off of Limewire) of those old phone recordings. Wish I still had those.

I met Dr. Brock in the late 90’s at 1st Ave. He was claiming to be the “extreme sports coordinator” was riding around before the show on a razor scooter through the crowd- arranging pool matches between strangers. He told me that they were gonna raise the stage up a couple stories, and then just show video of the band. At the end, the band was supposed to bungee jump off the stage. I told him it was a bad idea…but it wasn’t. Later that night they were taking requests and I shouted out “trucker’s atlas” and they played it. Nice memories.

listened to his music for decades, never heard the man speak. He was great, like I would totally listen to him just talk about a random subject.

That 5 second bit of Doin' The Cockroach before the pedal section just led to me spending the most money I've ever spent on a vinyl record...what an album.
