Freddy Cricien (Madball, Hazen Street)

"Demonstrating his smile," Freddy Cricien of legendary New York Hardcore band Madball stops by "the pit" to drop some terrible tour tales (and presumably some suckas) including playing in flip-flops to no one in Nag's Head, North Carolina one night and later to 120,000 at the uropean Dynamo festival (while nursing a killer cold).  Along the way Freddy touches on his band's infamous reputation, the importance of the ethnic makeup of the original NYHC scene, some awful jobs he's had, singing lessons, his love of hip-hop and Phil Collins, and what his parents think of his music.  Make no mistake, we "set it off" on this week's WORST GIG EVER!
