JC BERDOO New York Rider Magazine Interview 6

Krit: I know you met our friends LJ James and Preacher Chuck, and have done their radio show. How did this come about?

Berdoo: LJ and Chuck are the coolest dudes and re a lot of fun live on radio and in person. LJ and I hooked up on myspace about a year and a half ago and he really dug the Berdoo songs and asked me to join him and Chuck on there Biker Lowdown Radio show live in NY, well hell you know me as i said sure that would be a blast, so I called in the following Wednesday night after I sent out only 50,000 emails to friends to check out the show and it was just great, they were so cool and positive with the call in I did and we talked and joked and had a great time, i truly believe that when something like that happens it is meant to be, we all were very responsive to one another and complimented each other as it should be, will it took off like a bullet and they were laughing as I was also live on air and the many, many listeners they have everywhere were having a great time and the calls came in and the ratings meter was pushing the red zone and then the beers I had kicked in and it was just a crazy live time. Then LJ asked me to come perform at there Skullfall fest 2009 and they played some of the new Berdoo material and I guess it caught the attention of their massive listeners, so then more songs were being played. They also had other guest speakers coming into the show, which was cool. They have a great group of people that come on and speak about every issue that involves bikers world wide, that is also how I met Elisa from the Indian Larry events and all the great brothers and sisters in New York from the Mortal Skulls, They sure know how to have a great kick ass party and I want to do that again really soon...

Krit: What makes you laugh?

Berdoo: Oh great question, The 3 stooges, Obama, Married with Children, the Flintstones, Felix the Cat, Broken Strings, Broken can opener, wanna be bikers riding with sandals, that fucker that took Jax son on SOA when he gets caught, some of my guitar playing when I have a few to many cold brews, these answers...!

Krit: Who do you look up to and why?

Berdoo: First is God, my two wonderful daughters Tabatha and Zgizgi, all HAMC and BHC, all pro musicians, Ozzy, Zakk Wylde, Eddie Van Halen, Billy Gibbons, Joe Satriani, Dimebag Darrel, Randy Rhoads, Sonny Barger, all brothers and sisters world wide from the red and white, Everyone of these great people i have mentioned have made me open my mind and heart so i can see the true light within my own soul and press forward into the next adventure of life...

JC BERDOO New York Rider Magazine Interview 7

Krit: In your own words- Who is Berdoo??

Berdoo: Well, as you can see I have been around for a very long time.. I am a 123-year-old vampire, and a longhaired, tattooed guitar player! LOL! I think I maybe one of the most famous unsigned bands around, and although many record companies have approached me over the years, they all wanted too much money and control of what I do, so I have always told them to “f” off! I am not the kind of guy that will change who I am or what I do for the sake of a quick buck. Besides, I don’t think I would look good in plaid and polka dots on stage! LMFAO!! So, I have always just kept on doing what I do figuring one day it would come back around. I never did care about the money or the big house on the hill. Still don’t.

Krit: Where do you see the music industry heading in the next 5 years?

Berdoo: Well, it is not the same anymore now that the bigwig record labels have taken over. I do know that rock and hard rock music is on its way back in a big way. In my opinion, the days of rap and alternative and stupid music is done. They tried to ram it down our throats and it didn’t work- at least not with me! People are smarter than that stuff, and they are sick of it. I have been to all 48 states and damn near every major City and people want to hear rock music. They want to hear what they grew up listening to, songs that hold meaning to them during certain times of their life. There are millions of people who all have their favorite songs, and for whatever the reason, they have made a lasting impression in their lives.

Krit: How does that relate to your music and your concerts?

Berdoo: I personally think that the songs that I write, and play, can change someone’s life in a positive way, and that sometimes it scares me. Like the new “Biker’s Law” track, for instance. Each time that track is downloaded, 50% of the sales are going to the 81 Brothers Fund, which I have set up the help Brothers and Sisters and Families in need. I mentioned this on The Biker Lowdown Radio Show I did back in June 2009, and have gotten a good response to it. It is available on iTunes and Amazon and on my site as well. Besides, I play biker shows others are leery about playing, always have and always will.

Krit: Tell me more…

Berdoo: Well, I have always put my heart, feelings and soul into my music. It got to the point that I’d have someone listen to my music while alone and it would make them trip out, or even cry. I don’t use any foot pedals or whammy bars or anything extra- just my fingers, and my guitar. Once the sounds travel out of the speakers and into a persons mind and heart, it makes a full circle- that is the magical part about it for me. There are only three things on the planet that can heal anyone: they are Love, Time and Music- well maybe four things- Beer! We all have the need to feel something during a certain point, when the time is right and the music takes over and we can feel what we want, or need, to make it through. I am still here and will always be, it is what I do, and I can’t just quit. I’d never make it as an employee at Jack in The Box! I plan on playing as long as the fans and friends want me to! Thank you to the NY Rider Crew for allowing me to give you and your readers a chance to see and hear what Berdoo is all about. We kick major ass at every show so come check us out. We will be performing at Indian Larry’s Block Party on September 18th, which is up your way… and as always my motto is this: Tune In, Turn It Up and Stand Back- Hell Yeah!
