The Untitled Interview #156 – Hopscotch Edition: Starring Dylan Shumaker (Woodsman)

It's not that the gentlemen of Woodsman were born in the wrong time, necessarily. Moreso that they could easily be a part of a scene long gone. The Denver dudes deal a sort of prog-psych-jam card, loud and layered and more than a little kooky. Which, as you know, means I love that thing they do. All this and a drummer that references The Big Lebowski? That Dylan Shumaker's a man after my own heart, y'all.
Fuzzy Logic: How are you getting to Hopscotch: plane, train, or automobile?
Dylan Shumaker: Submarine.
FL: Inevitably, you will forget to pack:
DS: Creedence tapes.
FL: How many shows will you be playing?
DS: Two. Kings Thursday night and The Hive Friday afternoon.
FL: Band you're most looking forward to seeing at the festival?
DS: Earth also Swans if I get the chance. Gauntlet Hair is pretty sick too.
FL: What's the first thing you plan on doing upon arrival in Raleigh?
DS: I actually grew up in Raleigh until I was a sophomore in high school so I've got a bunch of friends still in the area. I think first thing will be to find some of those friends, go to Bojangles and drink some sweet tea.
FL: What was the first festival you ever attended, either as a musician or member of the general public?
DS: Ohio Street Fair sometime in the 90s. RATT probably headlined.
FL: Favorite thing about festivals?
DS: Body paint booths and mud people.
mp3: Insects (Woodsman from Rare Forms) (cheers, Altered Zones)
