Sep 14 Interview: Baked, Bueno, and Thatcher

Two NYC bands, Brooklyn's Baked and Staten Island's Bueno, hit up Eclectic last night to play the first rock show of the year. These alliterative indie-rockers have been touring around the Midwest and Northeast together, playing 10 shows in the last 11 days. New and old friendships and family relations tie Baked and Bueno together into an exceptionally goofy, laid-back group of guys. Headlining the show was Wesleyan's own post-punk group Thatcher (Chris Gortmaker '17, Jesse Cohen '17, Ryan Breen '17, Alex Lee '17), who just dropped their debut EP. Thatcher's Chris and Zander Porter of Aural Wes swooped in for a quick interview with the bands before the show.

It started out stupid, like every other night. We pre-gamed in WestCo and listened to nostalgic 90s rap. Everyone got too drunk. Nobody wanted to smoke weed or have sex with my visiting friends. What seemed like any night I may have had at college – or at home in Minnesota, for that matter – soon devolved into a sanguine shit show which the student body of Wesleyan may very well remember for years to come.

Wanna know what a Diarrhea Planet would smell like? Probably not. Hopefully not. But what would it sound like? Apparently, like 6 best friends, 4 riffing guitars, endless chanting, and as much cheap beer as you can imagine. In other words, a whole lot of fucking fun. Hit the jump to read more about the glorious Nashville band known as Diarrhea Planet, coming to The Eclectic Society this Thursday.
