| The Doctor is in...your head, that is! Kick back and twist your already bent minds with this conversation between Scary Jerry and Dr. Gigglez, as they discuss cheap strippers, green vomit, kicking bloody babies, naked monkey dances, and Japanese horror. Call it sick. Call it disturbing. We call it entertainment! Scary: First, thank you for taking the time to do this interview for Scary Entertainment. We look for the best, and you're next. Dr. Gigglez: No problem. Anytime. Thank you, as well. I love talking with folks about what's going down in the underground !!! Scary: So how have things changed since hooking up with Daddy? Dr. Gigglez: A lot, I have to say. My world has opened up. I've gotten to play shows I probably would have never gotten, such as an opening slot at Twiztid's Bootleg Banner Tour...opening for Tech 9. I also had my own set at the Gathering of The Juggalos last year. I have also been a masked guy for Wolfpac on tour for Twiztid and Insane Clown Posse. Plus, I have gained tons and tons of fans, and it has been a great feeling to be able to hit the masses of people...great networking between artists. Scary: It really is who you know in this business. One connection can turn your whole world around. Wolfpac, despite their success, has remained pretty grounded. When I met up with them at ICP's first show of "The Tempest" release party, I and my friend were treated like old friends. Venue management didn't want to let us in, but Buddha hooked it up in minutes. Everyone says they won't, but, honestly, do you think you'll be as personal with your fans as you are now, as your popularity grows(and I'm sure it will)? Dr. Gigglez: I love hanging out with fans. I treat them as one of my homies, because if it wasn't for them there would be no Dr. Gigglez. A lot of times I've hooked up fans with free shit cuz they had no money. I was like fuck it, I'm a people person. So for those reading this, when you see me, say "what up?" I do not bite!!! Scary: I've been crucified by other band members(one more reason I'm glad I went solo) and managers for giving shit away and letting people in free. For example, giving away discs and free downloads helps spread the word better than anything. It also lets your fans know you appreciate them. What's the craziest fan experience you've had so far? I know there are plenty more to come. Dr. Gigglez: Well, I have had a couple: one that was strange, and one that was pretty cool. The one that was strange was I was taking a piss at a show that Wolfpac was playing in Worcester, and a kid spotted me and, while taking a piss, asked me for an autograph. The other really cool one was at the Gathering last year. Some kid caught the bloody baby I kicked in the crowd and wanted me to autograph it. A lot of fans have smoked me up, which is ill. All in all, I have never had a bad situation with fans. Scary: I always appreciate a fan sharing the stash with me. The only time that back-fired on me was when I just came off stage at an outdoor festival wearing three shirts, including a black vinyl sleeveless trench, and I asked for something to drink. I meant water. This guy handed me a bottle of green liquid, which I gulped down entirely, thinking it was Kool-Aid. It was apple Pucker. With all that heat, I was puking green foam in about an hour and had no idea why until someone told me. So, any embarrassing stage incidents. Don't be shy about it. Alien Poop, guitarist for PT Grimm, leaped from the rafters and crashed through the stage(remarkably, the band never missed a beat), and I have done everything from forget and make up the lyrics to falling off the stage. Dr. Gigglez: Well, one show I did in Attleboro, MA at this place called Jarrod's, during Wolfpac's set, they called me on stage, and the strippers took my clothes off and ripped off my boxers and next thing ya know the naked monkey dance was born...lol. Scary: That's one of the coolest things ever. I actually think everything to do with monkeys, public nudity, and silly dances is amazingly funny. I never got de-pants on stage, but I did get my boxers yanked down in front of a Jehovah's Witness. They never came back. Go figure. So, how 'bout the chicks? You starting to get a little more attention now? Don't even lie. I've seen pictures...haha! Dr. Gigglez: Chicks are real cool. They love being examined by the doctor, Any pics you go I'd love some copies...lol. Scary: I've just seen the ones on MySpace. Speaking of chicks, I've booked plenty of female acts for A Midsummer's Nightmare '08, but I think we need dancers. What do you think? I was thinking of maybe checking on some cages. I have a friend who owns a wholesale company. He claims he can get anything. Dr. Gigglez: I say get some cages and get some strippers and some horny sluts for the crowd to have fun looking at!!! Scary: Strippers are expensive around here. I used to blow several hundred a night on my parties, and that was per hour. Where can we get volunteers...or maybe some that will do it for weed and pizza? Dr. Gigglez: Go to the really crappy ones. Thats where you get the best blow jobs for cheap money. Scary: That's also where you find the ones with fresh c-section wounds...lol. At least that's how it works around Newport, KY. I saw Wolfpac recruiting in the parking lot when we first rolled up. That's the way to go. Anyway, I wanna change gears a bit and ask my weird questions that no one expects(like this conversation has been perfectly normal...lol). So what do you do in your spare time? Any hobbies...legos, Magic:The Gathering, making skin suits from fat chicks? Dr. Gigglez: Well, my spare time I spend taking care of my 2 kids. I go fishing, to amusement parks, smoke insane amounts of weed, but that is on a regular basis. I also just finished making a new skin suit from this hot fat chick I fucked. Scary: Oh, you have two kids. That's right. I knew that. I have a little girl, myself. Her first birthday is tomorrow. So do you take your kids with you or keep business separate from family? Dr. Gigglez: I keep them away from the shows, for the time being. I know my little monster will probably follow in my footsteps. Not too sure the take on the other one. But I keep them separate. Scary: What are some of your favorite books? Periodicals count(thanks to musicians who don't read...lol). Dr. Gigglez: HAHAHAHA! Honestly I don't read that much. The things I read recently are Ghost Hunters Para Magazine or video game magazines from time to time, when I'm on planes. Scary: My second love...video games. I sold my consoles a couple of years ago(I had all of them), and I sat and stared at the TV for hours trying to figure out what I did before I bought them. Thank God for PC games. So who would you list as your biggest musical influences growing up? Dr. Gigglez: Gravediggaz, Eazy- E, Dr. Dre. Too $hort, NWA, Wu- Tang Clan. Scary: What kind of films are you into? This is moving into heavy conversation...lol. Dr. Gigglez: I am a horror fan. I will watch any movie. I love movies. I actually wrote a draft script for a movie I want to make, but one of my favorite movies I love is "Cannibal: The Musical" by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, creators of "Southpark". This movie was made before they made "Southpark" and is such a great movie. Scary: That is one great movie, for real. The sheep segment...ha! No words. If you have a treatment, why have you been holding out on me. I have a file folder full of treatments. You gotta email me that shit! I have a DP and a director on stand-by just waiting to make something new. Anyway, I have to ask: what's scarier, American horror or Japanese horror? I'm not talking "The Ring" but "Ringu" and not "The Grudge" but "Ju-On" or "A Tale of Two Sisters" when I say Japanese horror. Dr. Gigglez: I have yet to see a Japanese horror flick yet. So I hear, the Japanese movies are more ruthless than American movies. I hear the "Saw" movies are like PG movies over there...lol. Scary: No doubt. When you send me a mailing address, to mail your fest kit to, I'll send you a couple. The original "Shutter" is great. They're really big on shadows and sudden shock...very little special effects. So what's next for you? Is there any inside info you'll be willing to share with me here...new album dates, style changes, producer or writer change-ups? Dr. Gigglez: Well, next month I start the recording process of my album. Once that is complete, I will have a release date, but I think an exclusive date for the album will be at this year's Helloween show, then the following week release the album . Once the album is done, we are going to start promo for the album. Then possibly try to get this movie made out here. Scary: I'd love to check your shit out. Here's a strange question for you: what's your take on Scientology? Have you been hearing about the war between Anonymous and Scientology? I want to do an album dedicated to it, but I can't get anyone to touch the subject. I was hoping to have guests on every track and release the disc for free. Dr. Gigglez: I really don't follow it. I would be down to get on the track. I'd have to do some research on it. Scary: The short of it is: Scientology is a tax-exempt cult that was founded by a science fiction writer. His story isn't even good fiction. Battlestar Galactica would make a more convincing religion. What's your general take on religion as a whole? Do you subscribe to any belief system? Dr. Gigglez: I'm not very religious at all. Is there a god? Yeah, I think there is. I'm not one for church and all that. I don't think it should be pushed upon like Jehovah's Witness people come knockin' on your door...lol. Scary: I agree totally. Are there any new artists that you are collaborating with on your next album? Dr. Gigglez: Wolfpac, Jason Porter, Fury, J-Scrub, and Dirty J, as of right now. Scary: Cool line-up. Anyone going to perform with you live? Dr. Gigglez: Well, on stage with me, I'm working on getting a full time hype man, but usually Fury or J-Scrub take the reigns and tear the stage up with me. Scary: Cool deal. Before we end this, I have to ask how Dr. Gigglez was born. Where did the concept originate, and how did you get it off the ground? Dr. Gigglez: Well, I used to rap under a different name back in the day. My name was Neva. It is pronounced "kneeva", which a lil' inside info for all those checking this out...it's my middle name. I was just doing plain old boring rap...lol. One day I said let me try something more violent, so i made a song, and boom, I changed my name to Dr. Gigglez. The idea came from me wanting to do the Whole "Dr." gimmick. I laugh alot in person, so I strapped on Dr. Gigglez. To get it off the ground, I was pushed by my friends and family. They liked what I was doing. As a matter of fact, J-Scrub introduced me to Krazy at Rydas Records in 2000/2001. They signed me, then I ended up taking 2nd place in Mike E. Clark's rap contest he had. That is what really got it off the ground and got me to where I am today !!! Scary: That's a great story. Thanks for sharing it with us, and thanks for the interview. Is there anything you'd like to shout out before we wrap? Dr. Gigglez: Thanks for asking me to do this. Just want everybody to go to www.doctorgigglez.com and buy some t-shirts and peep the ill site and hit up www.myspace.com/drgigglez for all the updates and happenings in Dr. Gigglez world !!! |
