Wingnut Dishwashers Union


We of Drop made our way to the Tinderbox in Brattleboro, Vermont to talk to Patrick Schneweiss, aka Pat the Bunny, the main man of Wingnut Dishwashers Union. It was a cold, snowy, and typical Vermont day, despite the fact that it was already March 28. After our trek through the snow and into the colorful Tinderbox, it looked for a second that we may not get our very first interview after all. However, after assuring Patrick that we were not in fact actual members of the music industry, he was more than happy to talk to us, saying that he had never really gotten press before. During our interview in the Tinderbox bathroom (vibrantly painted), Patrick told of his experience touring Australia and the US, his years as a nihilist, revealed what kind of tree he would be if he was one (in the best answer to any question in any interview, EVER), and told us he believes drinking and hitchhiking your way through life “leads just as much nowhere” as the college-bound kids. We love this man and his music, and we’re confident that he’s the nicest punk-rocker, possibly even just person, you’ll ever come across. Download the full interview now, and you’ll probably find that you are just as fond of him.

The interview download isn't working. I'm writing a research paper on pat the bunny and would really like to get a copy of that. Can someone tell me where I can get it? Or, if possible, post it somewhere and provide a link? Thanks a lot.
