I am a fan of this band, but I’ve become lucky enough now to call them friends, too. That’s a great thing. We’ve shared a piece of the road together, many sleepless nights, many ridiculous stories and, of course, much pints. Ladies and gentlemen, please let me introduce you to Graeme Philliskirk and Dickie Hammond from the band Leatherface from Sunderland, England. More
Dry Ink: Where are you right now?
Tom Cheshire: I am in Puerto Varas Chile, about 14 hours South of Santiago. It’s a small German town.
DI: What are you doing there?
TC: Writing songs, drinking Stella and trying to find myself.
DI: What else have you been drinking? More
We drank Stella, and then I moved on to gin and tonic. A great time, a really good interview. I really like John and his band. They stopped in Atlanta last week and played the 529. A great rock band and just a great bunch of lads. There aren’t may of them around these days. The songs are strong and you find yourself humming the chorus days later. That is a good sign. I got a little bit drunk. More
I had a fantastic time doing this and hope you enjoy it. I’ve been a fan of Peter Stubb for a minute now but I never thought we would do an interview. He was very talkative and very sweet. A true Southern gentleman.
Dry Ink sits down and drinks with the legendary Peter Stubb from Dalton, Georgia. He has put out over 100 tapes since 1992 about demons, wolves, Christmas, suicide, pussy and food. We drank Pabst Blue Ribbon, some whiskey and later sangria and talk women, food, songs and mental institutions. More
This man wears a lot of hats and goes under a good amount of names. He has been referred to as The Real P. Diddy, DJ Sars, Parking Lot Paul, The D.I. Dubs, Reactionary Paul, PLP and about 10 years ago a kid called him Sally Hoops. I just know him as an old mate. He has been nothing but a true friend to me over the years and when this kid is on, he can make you piss your pants. Very, very funny man and a heart the size of Jersey. More
A chat with Paul Bearer of the now defunct Sheer Terror and the current band, Joe Coffee
Dry Ink: First things first, are you really a reverend? How did that come about?
Paul Bearer: Not a “legally ordained” one, whatever the hell that means. I subscribe to no one’s niche, save my own. More
Hebrew National, My Bagel’s on Lock-Down, Matsa Rhymes, R Jew Kidding & MC Sideburns. These are all names that he has thrown out there in the middle of the night. I know him as Steven Beeber, Jew Punk and the author of the book “Heebie Jeebies at CBGB’s.” Gin and tonic, much cider and several martinis on a Wednesday night in Atlanta. We had a great “Drinks With” session so here you go.
Dry Ink: Please introduce yourself.
Steven Beeber: I am Steven Lee Beeber, otherwise known as Steven Beeber, aka Steve Beeber, alias S.L. Beeber, nom de plume Little Steven Beeber, alter ego, The Bebop Deluxe, sometimes going under the assumed name Bebe Le Strange, in anagram form Ever Been Beatles, simply known as Buddy to you and yours.

When Tom Cheshire, the man behind the Drinks With interviews asked me to join him at El Myr for a sit down with Dave Railey, the man behind Corndogorama, I figured I’d bear witness to a one of a kind conversation. There’s something undeniably surreal about the idea of throwing down shots and having a frank discussion regarding a festival dedicated to deep fried tube steak on a stick. More
