I thought I’d create a blog post of all the stupid, 30 second videos we’ve put up on youtube over the past couple months. These videos by themselves really don’t warrant any views or recognition, but together, they are one big pile of crap.

and finally, here is a test promo video for our new CD:

In our first blog post “The Speed at Which Last Nights Vice Happens” I talked about creating a blog post where Andrew could write about the scary depths of his tormented mind.

Here’s a video of Brandon demonsrating how Andrew’s mind works:

and here is a video of Andrew fanning a fire, wearing a robe and singing what I think is a ~~Jimmy Buffett~~ Zac Brown Band song:

Spotlight Stl interviews Last Nights Vice

Brandon, Andrew and Chris sit down with Kari Williams with Spotlight Stl. The interview is below. For the whole thing, go to Spotlight Stl’s myspace page.

Last Nights Vice Lead Vocalist Brandon House described the band’s music to George Clooney as “a mix between Motley Crue and Frank Sinatra meets Daft Punk.” Clooney responded, “So, you’re telling me that you wear tight leather and croon like Frank Sinatra, and you have a drinking problem?”

House, Chris Blake (Bass Guitar), Andrew Ghiassi (Drums), Joe Fitzsimmons (Lead Guitar) and Jordan Phoenix (Guitar) formed Last Nights Vice three years ago when Ghiassi and Blake’s former band, Blame Gary, lost two of its singers, and House served as their replacement. As the new group came together, the name for their band came up in a brainstorming session.

“I heard ‘Last Night’s Fight’ in my head for some reason, and I kept seeing the color purple,” Blake said.
“Violet,” Ghiassi corrected him.

“[I thought…] violet sounds like vice, and I was like, “What is a vice, guys?” and they told me, and I said, ‘Last Nights Vice.’”

According to House, their namesake also derives from the type of music they play.

“We wanted to be a party band…we basically figured, if we’re going to be playing for crowds that are going to be…smoking, drinking, partying [and] having fun, we want to be the soundtrack to that.”

Each of LNV’s members helps to personify the distinctive atmosphere they create.

“We’re all like cartoon characters. You could definitely make a comic book out of us.”

Since its formation, LNV has played in local venues such as The Pageant, Pops, Ciceros, and Old Rock House, which the band considers their home base. At least four of their shows have contributed to charities. One function, the Washington University Carnival, had House and Phoenix judge and announce a Guitar Hero contest.
Contrary to a typical scenario where a singer/song writer brings a song to a band, LNV works collectively to put lyrics to a melody.

“It starts with a small idea, and we keep playing it over and over…until new parts evolve from that idea, and then we make a song out of it,” Ghiassi said.

“It’s like a big jam thing,” Blake added.

“I just make jibberish up. Really, I literally sing about nothing. You’ll hear me talking about how a baby needs to go get gas before Sunday because the malls are closed…just to get the vocal melody down. Then I go into the studio and write the lyrics,” House said.
