Exclusive! Interview With Green River Ordinance

Posted in Interviews, Music on February 2nd, 2010 by drfunkencherry


This week we got a chance to talk with up and coming rockers, Green River Ordinance, also known as “GRO”. You’ve probably heard their hit single “Come On” (check out the video below) and already, the band is burning up the road with 324 dates in 2009 alone and a debut album, “Out of My Hands”.

We talked with the GRO drummer, Denton Hunker (how great is that name??), who shared with us what it’s like to finally be “making it” in the music biz, what life is like on the road, how they work hard but manage to goof off too, and their experiences touring with top acts like Bon Jovi, Collective Soul and American Idol winner David Cook.

Green River Ordinance will be touring this month with their buddies, Sleeperstar:

Feb 10: Jammin’ Java | Vienna, VA
Feb 11: The Note | West Chester, PA
Feb 13: Harpers Ferry | Allston, MA
Feb 16: Mercury Lounge | New York, NY
Feb 17: Club Café Live | Pittsburgh, PA
Feb 18: Musica | Akron, OH
Feb 19: Radio Radio | Indianapolis, IN
Feb 20: The Basement | Columbus, OH

The interview is in 2 parts, apologies for the audio (that’s what happens when a rocker calls into an interview on his cell phone!). We also added a couple of GRO songs to the DrFunkberry radio on the sidebar. Enjoy! -Dr.FB

P.S. – Got more questions for the band? They’re hosting a live chat this Wed (2/3) at 6pm EST.

The Who was announced as the performers at this years Super Bowl.

The Super Bowl this year will be in Miami where it will be 3 years since the last Super Bowl was played there as Prince gave a Super Bowl performance to end all Super Bowl performances.

I am not excited that The Who was chosen. The day after the Super Bowl, I am going to petetion hard for Bon Jovi to be the halftime show for the Super Bowl in 2011 at Texas Stadium.

Are you ecited that the Who was chosen?-Dr.FB

NFL Week 2: Are You Ready For Some Football?

OK, so here we are week 2 of the season and time for me to make more predictions or what not…just for fun.

Let’s see if anything I said last week is true yet;

I said Tom Brady would be Tom Brady and he has. I said Donavon McNabb would get hurt sometime this season and Vick would start. Mcnabb is not playing tomorrow because he is hurt. Michael Vick, however, cannot play until week 3. I picked San Francisco to upset the NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals and they did. So far, you can call me butter because I am on a roll.

Now, let’s get to some questions? Are the Panthers that bad? Are the Eagles that good?  We will find out with Carolina this week but since the Eagles do not have Donavon, we won’t know.

The game of the week is Cowboys/Giants. It would have been Saints/Eagles if not for McNabb. Tony Romo and the Cowboys open the new Texas Stadium with over a 100,000 fans and the site of the 2011 Super Bowl.

Upsets of the week: Jags over Cards, Rams over Washington, and Baltimore over San Diego. (I really wanted to choose Miami over Indy tomorrow but since it is a Monday Night Game, I chose the Ravens.)

If the Jets didn’t talk so much smack, I woulda picked them to upset the Patriots. But talking smack about Tom Brady and the Patriots before a game is like breaking wind on a first date in the presence of your date; You. Just. Don’t. Do. It.

Again, this is all in fun and if you have anything you want to add regarding football and the games, please go ahead and do.

Bon Jovi still has not been announced as performers of this years halftime show. Let’s make it happen! Have a great Sunday and Go Cowboys!-Dr.FB
