Ned: "Stalker" and "Good Authority". Earlier on we were also playing "I Feel Good", but we haven't played that song for some time. I-94 Bar: Is there a reason you don’t play more old songs?
Ned: King Felix didn't play the song "Shit Town" 'cause we couldn't do the song justice at the time. We did try and rehearse it but other Freak Bros songs sounded better and we stuck with those... Carl: The songs that worked we kept. I-94 Bar: So what are the key influences for the band initially and/or more recently?
Ned: Speaking more for myself, at the time when the band began I was drawing a lot on country, folk and funnily enough punk as well as 60's R'n'B. There's a lot of roots rock in there everything from Chuck Berry to Woody Guthrie to Bob Dylan to bluegrass and stuff. Everything though came back to rock and was played with a rock attitude which comes from my love of stuff like 'The Stones and '70s punk and '60s garage, but we combined all those roots rock influences and revved them up.
