It was a dream come true to talk to Josh about this. Hopefully you all enjoy.

Just saw Smoking Popes a few weeks ago. Fantastic ..Same exact energy as 25 +years ago...

 

[Anonimyth]

Great band. They had trouble with Capitol Records too. I hope they support Morrissey again!

 

[Thewlis]

Great band. Born to Quit is a 90s classic.

It was fantastic and very interesting, I loved to hear everything you both said about Morrissey. Thanks a lot for the video!

 

[Gaylord Deepstar]

They truly are a great band! Just like Duvall, another band Josh headed. Amazing stuff!

Enjoyable chat.

Scroll down this page for my resumé of The Smoking Popes in the archived support acts collection I put together years ago.

That list starts with Sack who are actually playing Vicar Street Dublin tonight supporting Haircut 100.

It's weird because I was at the Battersea power station and Chester concerts in '97 for the Maladjusted tour and I don't remember The Smoking Popes playing support at all. I guess he's referring to an American tour?

Second leg of Maladjusted tour in America.

Ah okay. For a second there I thought I'd arrived late and missed them but now I remember there were no support acts for the two gigs I mentioned. Thanks for the heads up.

This was a good one.
Glad ya asked Josh some extra questions about Moz.

Saw the Popes open for Elastica at Double Door in March of '95. Still, Q101 was shit in the '90s and they're shit now, Josh Caterer interview notwithstanding.

They have a new single out, really good!
