What Happened To Us? Chapter 2: Losing Your Memory

A/N: I edited this myself so please be nice haha. See the end for more notes!

Read the chapter on AO3

“Hello Forsythe my name is Doctor Francis.” A handsome doctor greets Jughead. Jughead can’t help but think they pulled this doctor straight out of a Hollywood soap opera.

“I go by Jughead.” Jughead notices the police officer sitting in the corner of his hospital room.

“We met briefly last night. It is nice to see you again. How are you feeling Jughead?"

"Like I have been stabbed."

"Making jokes is a sign of great progress." Doctor Francis opens his file. "You have suffered a few wounds. A stab wound in your abdomen and a tramatic brain injury from hitting your head.”

“What’s with the police escort? Sheriff Keller too busy working on gentrifying the Southside Side?” Jughead mocks Sheriff Kellers vendetta against the Southside. He has had it out for Jughead for years and Jughead knows it. Ever since the incident at Riverdale elementary.

“Well it is good to know that you haven’t lost your sense of humor Jughead.” The Police Officer jumps out of his chair to greet Sheriff Keller.

“Right on cue.” Jughead says annoyed. Sheriff Keller always finds a way to visit his dad or the serpents. Jughead is put on Keller's bad side by association.

“Thank you Officer Daley you can clock out now.”

“Thanks Sheriff.”

“Doctor, do you mind if I ask Mr. Jones some questions?”

“I do actually. Jughead has very serious injuries including memory loss. I have not been able to run any tests yet. Right now Jughead needs to focus on his recovery, not getting grilled by the police.” Jughead decides he likes the soap opera doctor.”Jughead and I were about to discuss his injuries. You can sit in if you would like in order to help the investigation, but if you give this boy any issues I will have to ask you to leave.”

“Deal.” Sheriff Keller sits down in the chair that the other police officer had occupied previously.

“I know I all ready asked you this Jughead, but do you know what today’s date is?”

“It’s July 2nd isn’t it?” Jughead asks confused. Why is he asking him this again?

“No Jughead it is April 28th." Jughead's head begins to throb at this news. "We believe that the injury in your head has resulted in memory loss. We do not know the full damage of your brain injury yet, so I cannot give you any answers about the memory loss right now. I think it is best if we run tests straight away, so that I can give you the answers you need.”

“Thanks.” Jughead feels overwhelmed. Today is April 29th. He is certain that today is July 2nd. That is almost ten months of his life that have been erased. Has anything changed in his life? Is there a reason his brain doesn’t want him to know about the last nine months?

“The blonde that was here when I woke up? Was she there during the fight?” Jughead asks. Why else would Betty Cooper be by his side? He has hardly talked to her in several years, since he cut her out of his life. He thought he had successfully pushed her away. He didn’t want to believe after how awful he was when he walked away from their friendship, that Betty Cooper would still be here for him. Of course she would. She has the biggest heart of anyone he has ever met.

“I am not sure.” Doctor Francis answers. Jughead looks up at Sheriff Keller.

“We will talk about it later Jughead. Rest up. I will be back later with questions.” Of course he will.

_______________________________________________________________________

Betty turned off the hot water. She saw the blood still going down the drain. Jughead’s blood. She shut her eyes trying to forget about today’s events.

Betty slipped on a pair of pajama pants and a baby blue t shirt before heading into her bedroom.

“What the fuck is wrong with you Archie Andrews?” Betty sighs as she hears Veronica and Archie still arguing.

“I though of all people you would be on my side Veronica!”

Betty walked over to her window and closed her curtains.

“Jughead and your dad are now in the hospital! I guess you got what you wanted Archie!”

Betty looks up to see her sister appear out of their shared bathroom that connects the girl’s bedrooms. Polly looks at her little sister with worried eyes.”How are you doing?”

“Fine.” Betty lies. She is an excellent liar when she wants to be. Nobody can be perfect all of the time, but Betty Cooper can sure convince people she is. She has years of practice. If there was anyone not to crack in front of, it is her 9 month pregnant sister.

“Gosh they are so loud.” Polly refers to the explosive fight between Archie and Veronica that has been going on for almost an hour now.

“Where is Alice Cooper nosy neighborhood watch when you need her?” Betty jokes. Polly is surprised her sister is all ready making jokes, considering her earlier state.

“She and dad went to dinner.” Betty rolled her eyes. For months, her parents have been acting like nothing ever happened. Their marriage had obvious issues, but her parents preferred to tuck them away. The revelation that Betty and Polly have a brother out there in the world has not sat well with Betty. She has thought about it every single day. The fact that Polly and Betty got to grow up in this nice house with their All American family, while her brother is somewhere out there in the world unsure of who is birth parents are. Betty thought there was no returning for her parents after Alice threw a brick through the register window at Hal. She was wrong. Her family has just forgotten about all of their issues. Betty has learned this year that she is different from her family. She cannot sideline her problems. Her parents were a terrible example on how to deal with life issues.

“Everything that is coming out of your mouth is bullshit Archie!” Betty sighs. As angry as she is at Archie, hearing her friends argue is killing her. Despite what people think, she wishes the best for their relationship. She wants to see them happy. This Riverdale civil war is ripping everyone apart. Even people on the same side. ”All of this fighting is just going to get more people killed.” Polly begins getting worked up.

“It will end soon Polls.” Betty does not even believe the words coming out of her own mouth. She knows that things will only get worse after this. The serpents who were the passive party, will now turn in the aggressors. The Northside made a death wish when they invaded the Southside.

“When?” A tear begins to roll down Polly’s cheeks. Betty walks off of her bed to wipe her sister’s eyes.”I am so sorry Betty, you have had the night from hell and I am here being selfish.” Betty grabs her sister’s hand.

“Polly you lost your fiancé and you are pregnant with two beautiful babies. You have every reason to be emotional.”

“I am so lucky to have you as my sister. I am so happy that Jug is awake. If you need anything just let me know!”

“I need you to go in your room and rest. My niece and nephew are due at anytime. Let’s focus on the good.” Betty moved her hand to Polly’s stomach where she feels a kick. Polly smiles.

“They love when Aunt Betty is around.”

“I can’t wait to meet you cuties. Hurry up and get here.”

“If I were them I would stay cooped up in their mother’s womb for eternity to avoid this Riverdale drama.” The red haired vixen appears in the bathroom.

“We do have a doorbell Cheryl.” Betty says.

“As your grungy boyfriend likes to say, this is the dark ages Betty. Do you know how easily I just got into your house? Your front door is exceptionally quiet.”

“How do you think I ended up seventeen and pregnant?”

“TMI Pollykins. The point is that nobody’s safety is guaranteed these days. I am not letting JJ’s babies spend one more night without protection.”

“Thanks Cheryl, but we are all right. Really.”

Cheryl walks over to Betty’s window. She opens the curtains and the window.”Hey! There is a girl who is days away from popping out two babies and another whose boyfriend was just put in the hospital, if you could take this episode of the Jerry Springer Show somewhere else, maybe even the Southside might be better suited, that would be great.” Cheryl shuts the window.

Betty and Polly look at Cheryl surprised. They have witnessed Cheryl’s savage attitude on many occasions, but never on their behalf. This girl burned down her own house. She is not one to mess with.

“Betty, I am sorry about Jughead.” Cheryl says sincerely.

“Thank you Cheryl.”

“Don’t worry about Polly, I will make sure she and the babies are all right.”

“Good night.” The two head to Polly’s room. Cheryl’s sleepover at the Cooper household have been very common the past couple of months. After losing her home, twin brother, family business, and father all in one year, the babies and Polly were the closest thing Cheryl had to family. Betty had definitely seen a different side to Cheryl. She almost seemed human.

Betty sits down on her bed and pulls out her diary. Her favorite place to vent. Whether she writes about her good days or bad days, it is therapeutic for her.

For the first time ever, Betty stares at the blank page in her diary unsure of what to write. Her hands begins to shake.

There is a knock at the door and Betty drops her pencil.”B is it okay if I come in?” Betty sighs recognizing the familiar voice. She does not know if she wants to listen to Veronica vent about Archie right now, but it would take her mind off of her current situation.

“Um ya.”

Veronica opens the door. Betty is surprised at the sight of her. The always composed Veronica Lodge has mascara stains. She looks tired and broken.

“Betty I am so sorry!”

“It’s okay.”

“No it’s not okay.” Veronica sits on the end of Betty’s bed.”I had no idea he was going to go this far. I had no idea I swear!”

“None of us knew V.”

“I am sorry for the fighting too. You are here struggling and Archie and I are just- well that doesn’t matter- it’s over. I should have been here with you all night. How are you doing?”

“I am okay.” Betty lies.

“Elizabeth Cooper the I am okay excuse may be enough to get other people to drop it, but I know that is far from the truth. It’s okay to be hurting.”

“Jughead is awake. He is talking. As long as he is okay, I am okay.”

“How do you feel about the memory loss?” Betty is still processing the news about the memory loss herself. She has no idea what this means for her relationship.

“It is a small price to pay for his life.”

“Betty you are allowed to be upset. You can be selfish for once.” Betty feels the lump growing in her throat. The ache in her chest. She has been kicking herself since she got home for being upset. Feeling selfish, for not being completely excited about Jughead being awake.

“Veronica you don’t know this, but before you moved here Jughead, Archie, and I were always best friends. His mom and sister left almost two years ago and he cut me out of his life. He let Archie back in, but not me until this year. I got my best friend back. Then I fell in love with him and he loved me back. And now that is all gone. He is back to the boy who did not want me to be a part of his life.” Betty admits sadly.

“Betty he loves you.”

“It doesn’t matter as long as he is okay.” Betty says trying to convince herself more than Veronica.

“Betty?” Veronica looks at Betty unconvinced.

”What if I have lost Jughead forever?” Betty asks Veronica terrified.

Veronica slips off her Louis Vuitton heels and crawls next to Betty on the bed. She wraps her arms around Betty, letting her best friend sob into her shoulder.

A/N: Poor Betty :(! Poor Juggie :(! Sorry that this is a bit of filler chapter with both Betty and Jughead taking in the current situation of Jughead's memory loss. The next chapter we will learn about what exactly happened to Jughead.

Thank you everyone for the awesome feedback! I really appreciate it :)! Come talk to me or follow me on Tumblr at fxyeahriverdale

Article By: Pat ‘Riot’ Whitaker, Senior Writer/Journalist ‡ Edited By: Leanne Ridgeway, Owner/Chief Editor

It was just this past year, 2018, that the Richmond, Virginia based THUNDERCHIEF landed on my musical radar thanks to my pal of many years, and all around great musician, Erik Larson (Backwoods Payback, Alabama Thunderpussy, Hail Hornet).

At the time, he had collaborated on a track with the wizard behind the THUNDERCHIEF curtain, Rik Surly, but we’ll delve into that a bit more later. An online friendship between Rik and I quickly developed, as often does in this modern age of cyber-realm communications and exchanges of information, culminating in our meeting in person at last year’s edition of The Maryland Doom Fest. Speaking of which, there is also more to come on that too shortly, concerning the upcoming 2019 event.

Anyway, Rik is indeed THE man behind the one-man, stand alone sonic crushing that is THUNDERCHIEF, and if you have not experienced that amalgamated bastardization of crusty sludge and industrial doom metal, you will before this article ends, rest assured. Yet, in the time I’ve gotten to know Rik, I have learned of his incredible musical past, including ties to some bands, and people, that utterly intrigues me. Plus, Rik is the living, breathing, type of aural underdog that I love, and love to champion… a true, dyed in the wool DIY’er.

So, without a lot more further elaborate expounding from me, let’s get down to the nitty gritty of why we are here: I was recently able to pick Rik’s brain about THUNDERCHIEF, his past, his present, his future, and much, much more and thus…

Riff Relevant Interviews: THUNDERCHIEF’s Rik Surly

RIK SURLY

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Rik, a lot of folks are aware of your recent moves with Thunderchief of course but for the uninitiated, share with us a little of your musical background (bands, etc.)… what instruments do you play? Aren’t you originally a drummer?

RIK: Yes, I am a drummer that dabbles in strings. For this project, I am playing drums, bass, and guitar, plus creating my own noise/tape tracks.

I’ve been in bands since 1989, starting with a tech/death/thrash/trash band called Lycanthropy. After hilariously embarrassing myself, showing my young age by blowing an “audition” with a long-haired Neil Fallon, I then made a glorious move to Charlotte, where I joined The Furys with Bradzig from The Dixie Damned. I was doing road work too, and then I started The Irritations out of the remains of The Screamin’ Street Trash, who were being scouted by MCA Records. Of course this was when anything that looked or sounded “punk” was being signed. So we blew that real good.

Then I hitchhiked to Dallas with my dog and drums. I wrote articles for a few Texas ‘zines while looking for a band. I was at Jim Heath’s one day, saw 2 greasers smoking weed and beers across the street from Church Of Sub-Genius. We formed a gritty 3 piece rockabilly trio called Mean Mean Man & The Brass Knuckle Band. Tour, tour, tour – then I had the fortunate experience of having El Duce call me to book/play/drive/babysit his solo tour. When he went to jail, I joined The Spo-Its (notorious sexploitation noise outfit, like Crash Worship, but meaner; known to Jerry Springer as “Shock Rock”), then when he got out of jail, I did The Mentors’ 20th Anniversary Tour.

When that imploded, I hit Atlanta. The hot band in ’96-’98 was Dick Delicious & The Tasty Testicles, so I played with them, he (Dick D.) played with The Spo-Its, and we eventually got Kirk from Buzzoven and Robert Williams of Capt. Beefheart to join in.

Ok….now we go to Richmond, VA circa 2001 where I formed The Deviltones, we did that for about 5 years. This included Demonboy from Texas Terri & The Stiff Ones and Pustulus of GWAR (known as B.)

Being surrounded by Richmond musicians during this time was very inspiring, so many of us were on the edge of breaking thru to the masses.

The Deviltones had a few successes, but we fought constantly, but were still in somewhat of a demand. This is where I had the vision of THUNDERCHIEF – one man, a guitar, with a bunch of amps, drowning out the chaos that surrounded me. When the “big” expensive Deviltones record came out on 3 labels worldwide, we collapsed. We didn’t tour, the band member’s wives were the shittiest they could have been, and my only out was Thunderchief.

Then I diddled a bit live with Thunderchief and an I-pod, which, to me, was the anti-christ. Bobby from The Undead was really my inspiration for a 1-man band – he used to tour as The Undead with a mixtape of his backing tracks, and he would sing, just him and a tape. Very bad, but inspiring. I then spent 7 years as a hired gun/tour manager/tour accountant for several national acts. Then I did it…. I stopped all other ventures in 2013 to focus on Thunderchief, and here we are.

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: What was the catalyst that initially got you interested in music – as far as a particular band, album, or concert?

RIK: I have a pic of me when I was 3 years old, jamming to Elton John’s ”Saturday Night’s Alright” with big-ass headphones and my Mickey mouse guitar. Later, that guitar turned into a KISS guitar, and I was hooked. My sister took me to see KISS in ‘78, we saw the “real” Beach Boys, Stones, Rod Stewart. My sisters were at Cal Jam ’74, so I was always interested in what they were doing with music. I played their records so much, my dad got me a K-Mart record player. Then the next day, he came home with KISS “Rock ‘N Roll Over”. Everyday I would air guitar, or sing along with a brush in my hand, or both at the same time… music was, and has been, my life since I can remember. Hell, I still have those KISS records he bought me.

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: And yet another musician names KISS as their gateway band! Being the lone, sole member of Thunderchief, I assume this has its Pros & Cons. Care to elaborate on what any of either might be?

RIK:

Pros –

No band mates.

Can do anything I want. Literally.

No schedule conflicts/family issues

Rehearse everyday

Cons –

No band mates.

Booking/recording/touring is much harder

Promotion is difficult for 1 person

Songwriting becomes more lengthy

*People do not take solo acts seriously*

I don’t think anything can take the place of a “band”, but, if the people you work with are not on the same page, it wastes all of your damn years of creating music. I decided to take a chance with a solo project, and honestly, I’ve done as well solo, as I did with the baggage. I don’t want to sound like a dick, but really, I have true recollections man, and even recent tours have proven that sometimes when you get a band with 4-5 dudes with issues, you get eggroll.

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: What prompted you to pursue a project as its singular member like this?

RIK: Thunderchief started as a cartoon of amps and a little dude screaming. I realized that could be me, if only I knew how to play a guitar. I have skater hands, from breaking and dislocating shit when I was younger, so I could never really articulate my fingers to fret properly. I can beat the hell out of drums, Bonham-style, but can’t play power chords. So when the 3, 4, 5-man band thing was clearly not working for me, I had to keep on keeping on… many of those guys I played with just gave up music, but I couldn’t do that, I had to forge my way somehow. I can tour when I want, take my dog, fuck off in Nebraska for a while, whatever I want, instead of waiting for my bandmate’s wife to tell us we can’t go to Europe, ha ha!

The idea is of purity and as little effects as possible. Knowing that very band does not  “master” every song, I decided I didn’t care about being the absolute best – don’t get me wrong, I like it to be more than good, but no band is perfect. Some keep overdubbing and adding on tracks to make a record, like “Dopesmoker”, or some have 1 good song and 9 that you don’t want to listen to… Thunderchief is different in that aspect, if it’s not perfect, it’s perfect.

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Admittedly, I’m not a very tech adept kind of guy… it’s all kind of Greek to me, ha! That said, break things down for us as to how Thunderchief works, in the aspect of you being it’s sole member/player?

What type of equipment or set up do you use, either in studio or live?

RIK: I use the same equipment and settings in the studio, on stage, or at rehearsal. Currently, I have a guitar stack and bass stack with a drive pedal by Sean Ryan Customs, and a huge PA to match. Drums thru the PA, guitar split to 2 amps, and some yelling, you got Thunderchief. I haven’t introduced any effects into the mix, the original idea was to be as straight forward as possible regarding tone. The drums have to be pushed thru the PA from an iPod, but they’re not programmed, they are human.

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Speaking of human, how does a drummer like Erik Larson play with you on the road without actually playing with you live on the road? (Readers, ICYMI – Rik and current Backwoods Payback drummer Erik Larson collaborated on a crushing track earlier this year titled “Stone House”… it’s streaming below)

RIK: I box him up in the back so my dog can sit up front, nobody knows he’s actually there – we wrap his hair in a man-bun!

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: LMAO!! Being based in Richmond, VA., a hotbed for great music over the years, what do you attribute to RVA’s having such a richly fertile, long running underground music scene? Care to name-drop any current bands from that scene that you like or think readers should check out?

RIK: I am not sure what it is about Richmond, maybe it’s the ancient Powhatan curse of perseverance. There has been so many great bands to surface from here, and it continues with bands like Book Of Wyrms, Desert Altar, Lair, and many more. The one thing I have noticed from living in Richmond twice within 20 years, is that the music is still here. There is a good support structure here, and everybody is quite genuine in their craft, it’s nice.

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: What is currently going on with Thunderchief… and what plans loom on the horizon? And of course, we must touch upon Thunderchief being part of The Maryland Doom Fest 2019’s roster of confirmed bands!

RIK: Man, I have some plans! Of course, being only 1 person hinders a lot of planning, and I rely on fans and friends to help make booking and touring work. Now, I’m writing new material for an album, like I’ve said many times before, haha… but I still have a few unreleased tracks. Booking for 2019 has been a very pleasant experience, I’ll be hitting the region a bit heavier than in the past, tours in the works, and some killer festival dates to be psyched about. And yes, plans do now include playing MDDF V.

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: And what are your expectations / hopes with this appearance at the famed Maryland Doom Fest? For the uninitiated, what can observers expect from a Thunderchief live show, be it on the road or at MDDF specifically?

RIK:  It’s an honor to be a part of the bad-ass MD Doom Fest. I will be on tour at that time, my goal is to play with some, if not most, of the MDDF bands in others cities. I hope to see every band I can by not talking so damn much, I expect it to sell out! I love Frederick, I guess I’ll have to pull out the big guns for that show. Fans will definitely be encouraged to wear earplugs, get stoned and forget the boundaries of the music… Thunderchief isn’t out to reinvent the wheel, or do noodly solos and add rad effects. The idea is to play with a very organic tone, with a little push, and no gimmicks, but I might throw in a surprise for the Fest. [You can find these upcoming Thunderchief live dates below! – Pat]

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Knowing some of your background, I know you have been at this for several decades now… what keeps you so personally invested and still “at it” after all this time”? Care to share some sage advice, insight or warnings for anyone that may just be starting out?

RIK: Man this is all I know – I don’t have kids and all that normal stuff, I’m basically the same 13 year old practicing to [John] Bonham and Motley Crue, just doing it differently. My love for music and everything that comes with it hasn’t diminished yet, I doubt it will. All of my past colleagues have been done for a long time, except 1 ex-bandmate, who plays with a national act now. I don’t want to do anything else man, I just wanna rock out ’til dawn with a spliff and a cool one. Not much bothers me, but when I’m not playing shows, I always remember The Subhumans lyric – “How’s it going there? It’s Not going at all, We’ve got no more gigs”. Probably the most depressing part of it all for me. That, and post-tour blues.

I think I’m the one who should be asking for advice, insights and warnings! I’m not sure of what to say here, but I can help you with all of your problems, just send me $1 per problem, and consider it done!

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Ha! You and I have talked privately about the hardships that (independent) musicians / bands / artists face in today’s current music scene… what are some of the biggest that you have encountered?

RIK: Well, the current “industry” changes don’t really allow for past methods to work for bands – for example, we give away our music for free even more so than we used to. We work hard, we have extremely high overhead, we do all of these things for art, to be given away on YouTube or whatever, which is fine, but in contrast, years ago, we were cool with people dubbing tapes of our music, but we were gaining so much more from that form of free distribution. That’s one major change I’ve seen that hasn’t really helped out artists.

One particular conversation you and I had was… what does a band do if they want to release a single with a B-side?

Why do we have to continue to write and release full length albums in order to be seen, reviewed or taken seriously? I think if there were an avenue for this, we would see bands releasing much more material. Not every band has the desire to release album after album, without EP’s and singles, right? Maybe I’m just old, but that’s how I still buy music I want. Sometimes 3-4 songs are plenty when I’m in my car, and every record/tape/CD in my collection is not a full length, you know?

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Hypothetically, if there was one thing you could change or improve, what would it be and how might you go about it?

RIK: I guess I would like to see more booking agents. They do such a huge service for independent touring bands. If bands could spend more time writing and touring, rather than Facebooking and emailing all night, there would be more productivity in regards to the artist’s future.

You know, if a saucy agent would act as a “package promoter”, like, promote package tours for small indie bands (not just his/her friends’ bands), the venues would only need to find those one or two stellar local bands to play with the package they booked. Everyone’s headache goes away, the venue makes bar and food $$, and bands are playing to more people. But the flip-side is, some locals hold out for only “touring acts” – WTF? We are all touring acts!

I can honestly say, I don’t know how to suggest any changes, but what I’ve seen at a small handful of venues does not make sense for the establishment, or the artists. It’s reminiscent of the old days, like at the Electric Banana in Pittsburgh. If anyone reading this emails me with an Electric Banana story, I’ll send them free junk!

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Uh-oh, a challenge! About your aforementioned background, I have a question that’s solely for my own curiosity: I recently read that at one point, you were a roadie for a band I love and want to know more about your experiences with – Nuclear Assault!

What period of time was that and if you don’t mind, care to share one of your more memorable recollections from then?

RIK: Oh man, the times! That was the ’92 Agnostic Front / Nuclear Assault tour. I was at a show one night, working for Polygram Records (age card shown) when Danny [Lilker] asked me to hold his bass. Next thing I knew, I was 20 dates deep, their new guitarist and I started the same day. As much fun as Nuclear Assault was, and everything they were up to, I was in awe of Agnostic Front. It was my first AF experience, and I was hooked. NA was great, definitely a “slam a beer and go” philosophy. Lots of beer, pot, and thrashing about. It felt like a summer camp hanging with those guys.

That was a great tour seeing both sides of hardcore and thrash. I did a lot of tech work for those years. I landed in Dallas in ‘95 and got the ultimate gig…catering for Motorhead/Belladonna club tour. I think there are more “experiences” on that tour than most others, besides Buzzoven, Cramps, Napalm Death, Rev. Horton Heat, Mentors, etc. were all after that. I was so young and in my own world, I don’t know if I appreciated what I was involved in, I took it for granted because that’s all I knew at the time.

So many stories… I remember one venue cancelled the show because Roger was walking around with his shirt off after soundcheck, saw his chest tattoo, and cancelled the show in the name of Catholicism!

AGNOSTIC FRONT Circa 1992

NUCLEAR ASSAULT Circa 1992

Another quickie… I remember Belladonna had a young female tour manager, she was very business, very tough, but a doll behind the curtains. She would make sure to go to as many people as possible and say “Belladonna prohibits any photos”. After hearing that for so long I asked if anyone had tried to take a picture to make her say that, she said “no” (inner laughter).

At that age, talking to Danny and Freddie (Madball) convinced me to back off of helping others be successful and focus on my own music. So I did, maybe not the best choice but I did!

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: Outside of music, what type of things (hobbies, extracurricular things, etc.) do you enjoy doing in your personal life?

RIK: I still travel to skate, I ride BMX less than a mile from my house, I’m a horticulturin’ fool, I grow hot chile varieties and pickling cucumbers, of course hanging with my best girl Sasha and trusty Roadhound Kraut. Music has always been sort of a hobby, but like a permanent hobby that you do everyday for too many hours. [Riff Relevant extends our condolences on the recent passing of KRAUT McMANUS – Rest In Power, Pup!]

RIFF RELEVANT [Pat]: I have a tradition of letting the interviewee have the final word so is there anything you would like to say, share, rant about or whatever, here’s your shot!

RIK: Last words…. don’t be an elitist, enjoy things for what they are instead of finding the “wrong” in everything not suited to you. And time goes by faster as you get older, don’t waste it… and thank you for allowing me to speak, and thank you for reading this far!

Wow, I hope you all enjoyed that as much as I did! I want to thank THUNDERCHIEF‘s Rik Surly for submitting to the previous interrogation… and Erik Larson for bringing us together, ha!

Before closing, let me say, or suggest, that you listen to and support independent music and artists. You can catch THUNDERCHIEF at the following February appearances and The Maryland Doom Fest this June. RIOT Out!
