Punk legend, Billy Zoom, makes a vintage tiki cocktail. Part 1 of 2

If you've followed The Hula Girls for a while, then you've probably seen my posts about working for Los Angeles punk rock legends, X. The last 20 years, I've acted as their main graphic designer, designing logos, merch, posters, and shooting live concerts... but I've barely had any interaction with their guitar player (who happens to be one of my absolute guitar heroes) Billy Zoom. I'm proud to announced that tonight on Spike's Breezeway Cocktail Hour, I'm joined by the legendary Billy Zoom for part one of creating the Luau's Jet Pilot!
To make the JET PILOT:
--------------------------------------
1/2oz fresh lime juice
1/2oz fresh grapefruit juice
1/2oz cinnamon syrup
1/2oz falernum
1oz dark Jamaican rum
3/4oz gold Puerto Rican rum
3/4oz 151 Demerara rum
1 dash Angostura bitters
6 drops of Pernod
4oz of crushed ice
--------------------------------------
Mix ingredients in a tin. Flash blend for five seconds.
Pour into a vintage atomic themed double old-fashioned glass.

X is possibly the most unique band that has ever existed

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

I wholly agree.

[@randygravel2057]

Awesome 🫡

[@Hemlock2323]

My favorite Tiki drink and one of my favorite guitarists at the same time?!? Awesome.

[@Johnny_U_Vision]

Billy Zoom, solid score. I can't believe how 'Johnny Ramone' he is. Total sweetheart...hahaha.

[@darrenandtinasale1502]

Even though I know nothing about billy zoom. It was great to hear the stories from the 60’s and 70’s and all the legends he has worked with. Can’t wait for part 2.

[@KittraKittra]

It was Bob Hanson & Annie.(Pinball Annie) Not “Candy.” (Candy was Chuck Berry’s girlfriend. She was a hula hoop champion. Mississippian as best I recall? I’m a big fan of Victor Davis Hanson who looks so much like Bob Hanson. Both from Northern California and both brilliant History teachers. I miss Bob. Miss you too, Billy. BTW, it was your waitress girlfriend who painted the leather jacket silver. You’re welcome. ;-)

Billy Zoom wearing a shirt with himself on it. Nice!

[@oregonreverb]

Had me crying the entire time 😂 Can't wait for next week.

[@pb12661]

Mr. Zoom is a legend. It so weird, he looks just like an uncle of mine. I'd drink that drink. Looks good. 👍 20:32 Manny's Music

Gregory Burton -- Greetings from Craig, Greg!

[@franraffo6503]

Great show. Tiki cocktails y punk rock chat: right down my alley.

[@lromasz]

Amazing!! This was one of my favorites and probably the one that made me laugh the most. 😂 can’t wait for part 2! 💞

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Larissa R. Hahaha... thank you ☺️

[@dofunstuff2333]

Dude! Love the show! You have inspired me to build a tiki hideaway on my patio.. Spending way too much money stocking my bar for tiki drinks. If you are ever in Ventura area hit me up! I am also a car guy. Rebuilding a 64 Fairlane right now.. Cheers!

[@tommygallucci]

On the stairs I smoke a cigarette alone, Mexican kids out shootin' fireworks below And heeeeeyyyyyyyy baby, it's the Fourth of Julyyyyyy

[@karambitmaker]

Billy Zoom 4 life!

[@MagillSvenski]

Billy is the best, wish he did more interviews

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

totally agree

[@craigrainbird6967]

Spike: Don’t you like corks? Billy: This isn’t a cork it’s plastic Spike: Don’t you like corks? Billy: I like sounds! Like the sound of Spikes heart breaking to a million cork loving pieces. Note next guest must like corks to be on the show.

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Craig Rainbird 😂 I don't know why I keep asking people why they like corks 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

[@craigrainbird6967]

The Hula Girls it’s just your thing I bet your Mum would like to have known earlier, what will I get young Matthew for Christmas, I know a cork and bottle for hours of fun. The first time your Mum said Matthew I thought it was someone off camera.

[@pinuppalmer]

Nice one!!!

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Thank you ☺️

[@rfuel1031]

Literally watching this wearing my Billy Zoom on a Vespa shirt.

[@mdpocoroba]

Love Billy. Opened for X in 2002 in Houston and he was very cool. Biggest revelation was his comments on Van Halen. Who'd have thought?

[@brimstonefondue]

Ha! I'd guessed either him or John Doe just from the description in the last video.

[@mikepenhall315]

So awesome I am assuming you had no idea where this would go.

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Mike Penhall yeah, he was hard to keep control of 😂

[@nickmorton8998]

To borrow a phrase from the host,....”so Rad”! Thanks, Matt.

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Nick Morton 😂

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Aloha!

[@turbomustang84]

Easily makes the top ten best guitarists of all time. I saw them more live than any other band but not since the 80s

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Totally agree. Super underrated.

[@captainfun63]

What a great show, man, Billy Zoom! Big time! What a cool cat! Of course he's Billy Zoom! I think he really likes that drink. Did he really fix your amp?

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

Billy was surprised and thankful for the card , no peace sign behind my head this time

[@teenytal]

Billy Zooooom!

[@craigrainbird6967]

I also wasn’t married to Lana Turner but lots were.

[@andrewkoastephens210]

I don’t know why it’s coming as a surprise Billy Zoom got older. Legendary statement, “if I was drinking vodka from a glass I’d be drunk by now.”

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

hahahahaha....

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

The first time I met X, I got pictures with them and Billy made the peace sign with his hand behind my head in the first picture. When I was a little kid,we used to do that in school, trying to make our friends look stupid

[@vintagedrumlessons]

Hey, Billy!

[@Jheat64]

He did not expect the taste of the drink

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Juan Hernandez certainly not 😂

[@seanstephens5749]

Good looking Ice! Sonic Drive in?

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Sean Stephens yep 👍

[@andrewkoastephens210]

There are a lot of Sean Stephens out there, but I’m hoping this my nephew. It’d make me think I was a good influence.

[@Edward135i]

6:45 if its ceramic 99% chance it's made by Kyocera and that would make it a Japanese knife.

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

The second time I met them, I gave him a antique card for zoom porridge it had 2 pictures of a baby sitting on a chamber pot the first one, the baby was smiling with the caption "I use Zoom" the second picture shows the baby crying with the caption "I don't"!

[@mattfink]

If it tastes skunky it’s probably a bad lime or grapefruit

[@BreezewayCocktailHour]

Matt Strickland 🤷🏻‍♂️ they were picked an hour before recording, from trees at my home... so I think maybe I was referring to the flavors from the pot still black rum.

[@neilmahar7107]

Sam Ash is that the story

[@boytardo_clips]

mod af

[@ShlomoZOGelstein]

Billy Zoom is criminally underrated. He's such a phenomenal ax man. Great stage presence and dry sense of humor. Had the pleasure of meeting him at Denny's down the street from my house in San Diego, the morning after their show the night before. Matter of fact, i met DJ and Exene too! The time of my life! By the way, Billy is BASED. He doesn't like Neil Young for the same reasons I don't like him.

[@kingpin19662]

This is painful to watch. The interviewer is disrespectful and not funny.
