The Catheters.


THESE GUYS ARE a full-steam rock outfit hailing from the Seattle, WA area. Although their name is something that might make you wince, especially if you've had surgery where morphine was used and you couldn't piss on your own afterward, they can blast the rock music with the best of them. They formed in high school (note: if you are in high school, you could be starting a band right now and then in six years be touring England and the US if you've got what it takes) and have gone through a couple lineup changes since then. Their latest LP Static Delusions and StoneStill Days on Sub Pop shows their fury and angst, sort of like a guy writhing around on broken glass after getting a big fishhook caught in his guts while trying to cast for lost souls into a lake of fire. OK, that was a bit much, but whatever, I'll let them do the talking from here.

Hesh or fresh?

Davey: I'll go with hesh. I saw GNR GNR Gram-negative rods Infectious disease Bacilli that don't absorb gram stain–ie, are pink; most clinically important GNRs are coliforms: Enterobacteriaceae–eg, Escherichia, Klebsiella, Proteus, Pseudomonas, Salmonella, Shigella  on Friday. Buckethead is a piece of horse shit.

How about getting some of the usual BS out of the way: How long a band, who plays what, how old are you guys, what are the day jobs?

Davey: We've been together for about six years. Within the last two years we got more "serious" and went on tour a lot. Brian and Derek went to school together and started a band with two other friends. One of them quit and I joined. Then the other guy quit and Leo Leo, in astronomy

 joined. Prior to that me and Leo were in a band together which was way better than the Catheters at the time so Derek and Brian begged us to join. After lots of strippers Notable strippers of the past

I am 20. Leo is almost 21, Brian is 21, and Derek is 22. Derek is a bar back, Brian goes to school. Leo hops trains, and I do this job at the Seattle Opera The Seattle Opera is an opera company located in Seattle, Washington. Founded in 1963 by Glynn Ross, who served as the company's first general director through 1983, Seattle Opera's season runs from August to late May, with five or six operas offered and with eight to ten  house. Don't ask because I won't explain what it is. And no, I don't like opera. Oh yeah. Leo plays bass, Derek guitar, Brian sings, and I play drums. Derek's favorite color is red, Brian's is black, mine is blue, and Leo likes the mustard brown.

Anyone skateboard?

Leo: Used to...never any good though. Tore the meniscus meniscus /me·nis·cus/ (me-nis´kus) pl. menis´ci   [L.] something of crescent shape, as the concave or convex surface of a column of liquid in a pipet or buret, or a crescent-shaped cartilage in the knee joint.  cartilage in my knee and can't ride no mo'.

Davey: I tried but could only ollie and the rest are not super coordinated. Wait, this is Thrasher thrasher: see mimic thrush.

What shall we do with a drunken sailor Drunken Sailor is a famous traditional sea shanty also known as What Shall We Do with the Drunken Sailor?. It is now rarely called by its other name Sailor’s Holiday. ?

Davey: Leave him alone, he probably hasn't gotten laid in a long time. Give him a break. What would you do with a drunken sailor, assbole?!

Leo: What they do to drunken women in Okinawa...

Anyone had a catheter? I had shoulder surgery, and they told me unless I pissed by a certain time they were gonna stick a catheter up my dickhole. 10 minutes before the deadline I got up and pissed a gallon, avoiding the catheter. Any of you guys had anything stuck up your urethras? Since you guys are called the Catheters, should people think of painful tubes up their urethras when they hear your music? Or is your music somehow designed in some scientific way to increase urine flow in those who listen to it?

Davey: The old bass player had one but nobody currently in the band has had a catheter. We don't really like to talk about what we stick up our urethras, but you know, being on tour there are lots of broken drumsticks, guitar strings, long finger nails, and cigarette butts so I'm sure you can imagine. Our music is meant more to block you up so you don't have to go, and then once we're done you just let it all out. You know you're asking the drummer; I'm the wrong guy to ask.

Leo: Well now...a catheter can be any kinda IV device, see? Like a piss tube or a hypo hypo: see sodium thiosulfate. . I've had IV's in the ER and all, but never in my dick. Just my finger, but it was before I knew any better. Don't hold it against me and I won't hold mine against you.
