Gonzo Chicago recently caught up with PILE last time they were in town and filmed singer/guitarist Rick Maguire performing acoustic renditions of Jerk Routine favorites "Haunt," "The Moon," and more. Accompanied by Fax Holiday's Eric Schermerhorn (PILE's fill in guitarist on that tour), this video is not to be missed. Here's what they had to say...
"Pile is a band from Boston. We originally heard about them when a buddy from Milwaukee wouldn't stop raving about their record "Magic Isn't Real", and they just so happened to be playing Casa Donde the next night, so we went to check it out. As you can see in that video, they're great live. Pile used to be just Rick Maguire, playing the songs he has written. He's since recruited a stellar team of hard hitting cohorts that are really something to see live. He was nice enough to play us a few songs solo after a show we set up at Swerp Mansion. We'd suggest you catch Pile when they come through your town. They're spectacular."
