I guess it's wicked, we have very little money and so far have 34 bands "signed" with us. We can barely distribute and mass produce albums and we work so hard with other bands to keep their interest, that we never have time to record our own shit.

We did/have recorded several pieces, and we've sold every last copy. One of our fan favorite albums, The Paper Mongoose Album, has been outsold everywhere and I don't even have a copy of it anymore, I think someone stole it, haha.

I did get back from tour, I toured Miami, New York, Rhode Island, Ontario Canada, Antarctica, Alaska and finally Northern California.

oh yeah. must be real hard work. and with college and that scat porn course or whatever you're doing you must be busy

We've been doing this since we were all 13, so for nine years, we probably have earned around $17,000 to $19,000 a year just by gigging and selling cds and merchandise ofcourse. Although, it's so f*cking hard to sell a damn record since everyone burns them, shares them, steals them, or pirates them. I like this occupation because I'm in the spotlight and it's tax free.

Because at the moment we have 23 members, our asking price per gig is $3,000 just to make sure everyone gets a cut they can live off of. If they can't afford that, then we charge $850 for five of us to play half of our song catalog. I don't really tour around the world since it's hard on me physically, but I do local tours and they bring in an easy $15,000. World tours are rare for me, and they're where the real money is, my last tour grabbed me an easy $49,000 which all went to the buidling of Kaya and I's new house.

No sir, it was a benefit gig that a rich guy I know hooked us up with because his son loves us. We raised half a million dollars along with the plethora of other bands that attended the benefit gig. Paul Gilbert was there and so was Flea. Didn't get to meet Flea, that pissed me off. Also, there's nothing in Antarctica, nothing...

I guess... I'm going to retire soon. This line of work is stressful on a relationship with all the women who attend my shows and whatnot, and the money is never for certain.

Yes, lead or I sometimes take turns with Bass, DJ or Drums, whatever needs my skills. Sometimes we just trade off instruments before going up there, it's a change of pace for the same day at the office.

Yes, we can range anywhere from Ska to Deathmetal and anywhere in between. We have so much talent this time around, this is like fourth generation Vigaku. I'm the only original member now and I'm glad with who we have. They're all brilliant.

We're going to live on the farm my brother, my parents and I are almost done paying off. It has 65 acres of land, so there's room for generations of lil Scythes and Kayas.

Paul was great. He took me, this dude named Lance, and a few other guitarists to jam with him, it was unforgettable.

Well when I retire I'll have to look for a boring job that wastes my talent in front of a computer.

We record from my house, so in a way, yeah. Haha. We have empty egg carton shells and mattresses we sometimes put up to record metal.
