Street Justice - Sep 15 @ Knockout with Get Dead and Rat Damage

Double Tim, Quincy, Susie, Ko, and Jeff

LittleBook: Why did you start a band??
Street Justice: We were a crack commando unit imprisoned for crimes we did not commit. We promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the San Francisco Underground. Today, still wanted by the government, we survive by singing the song of true pure justice. If you can find them, and nobody else can help, you can hire Street Justice.

LB: How did you find each other??
SJ: Casual Encounters on Craigslist.

LB: What's your most memorable moment as a band??
SJ: Our first published interview in a real music magazine.

LB: Where do you practice?
SJ: In The Basement/Holding Cell.

LB: What do you drink at practice?
SJ: Water mostly.

LB: What do you do at practice when you’re not practicing?
SJ: Argue mostly.

LB: What's the hardest thing about being a band in 2009?
SJ: Having to be around each other. The same thing as has always been tough about bands. Like that saying, "too many cooks ruin the soup."

LB: What's the best / worst thing about being a band in San Francisco??
SJ: Best is that there are plenty of awesome shows. Worst is that nobody goes and if they do they don't really get very stoked.

LB: What do you want people to know about your band, what are you doing next??
SJ: Trying to play a lot of cool shows with bands we like and go some awesome places. Like Montana or the South Pacific. We're looking for an amphibious van right now.

LB: What’s up with your CD where can I get it, where did you record it??
SJ: Step one is to find/build a time machine. Step two is to travel to the not-so-distant future. Step Three is to find one of us or go to one of the record stores that will agree to sell our crap and Step Four is to buy it. We're recording with Greg Wilkinson at Earhammer Studios in Oakland. It should be ready in a month or two.

LB: Favorite local Band or a memorable show??
SJ: We are the best local band, and we don't play shows that aren't memorable.

LB: Favorite venue to Play??
SJ: The Knockout.

LB: Have you played The Knockout before?
SJ: I think we may have but I doubt it was very memorable.

LB: What do you like about it?
SJ: It's very close to The Basement/Holding Cell.

LB: Do any of the members ever take their shirts off at a show or at practice??
SJ: NO STOP ASKING

LB: Who's the smelliest member after a sweaty gig??
SJ: The dead rapist in the trunk.

LB: Favorite pre / post show; food, indulgence or ritual??
SJ: Tim likes virgin sacrifice and the rest of us do Yoga.

LB: Where do you think live music is heading??
SJ: Gettin' worse all the time, exceptin' for when we play shows. Techno and electronic music are ruining the planet.

LB: How do you feel about people downloading your songs for free , do you offer free downloads??
SJ: Music should be free.
