#482 - Brann Dailor (Mastodon)

This week on The MetalSucks Podcast, we've got the one and only
Brann Dailor, of Mastodon! Since the band's upcoming tour with
Gojira and Lorna Shore is coming up soon, we get down to business
and discuss topics like why they have two legs booked of their
upcoming tour. We also chat about the time they had two weeks'
notice for their first post-pandemic show, what went into the
decision of performing a majority of songs of their latest album
while on tour, and how that setlist conversation occurs with the
Mastodon camp. Dailor also chats about the art of playing the right
deep cut for the fans, what he feels is the sweet spot for the
length of a concert, what food he wishes he did not see backstage
after a show, and how his diet has changed through the years as a
touring musician. Aside from the interview, Petar and Sylvia
discuss the tragic events that occurred at the Morbid Angel show in
Illinois over the weekend, as well as our thoughts about yet
another mass shooting at an American elementary school. They also
find the time to talk about the six arena headliners performing at
the inaugural Power Trip Festival. Song: Mastodon “Pain With An
