Ben Kenney talks Playing for The Roots and Transitioning to Play for Incubus (by renmanmb)

Random Incubus facts: Brandon Boyd got arrested for attempting to bring Switchblade  on a flight. The reference to 2012 A.D in ‘A Certain Shade of Green’ is referring to an ancient Mayan belief that the world would end on December 2012 A.D. Hours before their first show, the band was forced to come up with a band name. After rejecting Dirk’s ‘Chunk-O-Funk’, and Brandon’s ‘Spiral Staircase’, Mike turned to a nearby thesaurus. The first name he saw was Incubus, which means nightmare in Latin. The band all thought that the name sounded cool, so it stuck. Every member of the band surfs except Kilmore—he tried once in Orlando but found surfing stressful. The song “Smokin’ the Herb again” of When Incubus attacks volume 1 isn’t actually by Incubus, the song was put on their CD by mistake. The song was from another band, so Incubus decided to just keep it in their CD. Chris Kilmore was adopted by white family. Ben Kenney played in the hiphop band called ‘The Roots’ before he came into the band. Brandon and Mike are both vegetarians. The noises at the end of ‘Aqueous Transmission’ are thousands of frogs recorded outside the Malibu Mansion that Incubus recorded ‘Morning View’ in. Brandon once obtained a job working in the concession area of a movie theater. He made it through training but quit when he realized that he would have to wear a uniform that required wearing a bow tie. When Mike Einziger was 17, he tried out for Alanis Morissette’s band but didn’t make it. The song ‘Are You In?’ was not really meant to be a song. The band had a argument and someone started the groove and without talking, each member joined in one by one. Brandon went out of the room with his microphone pointing to his bandmates singing, “It’s so much better when everyone is in…  Are you in?”

isadori: Did I tell you all that I have Brandon’s handwriting tattooed on me? It’s from A Crow Left of The Murder.  Look….Find….Free with the Crow in red. I think that was my 3rd or 4th tattoo? I can’t remember, I have so many, but I do remember the one I got in Denver like it was yesterday. My old friend and I went to get them done and the next day we went to Red Rocks and I stood on that stage and sung…the acoustics are amazing there, you don’t even need a microphone to be heard.
