Our Interview with Dilly Dally

We Don't Understand the Question

Dilly Dally
Joel Frieders | October 15, 2015

Tom went 'SUPER PSYCHOTIC I LOVE THIS BAND' over Dilly Dally after I sent him the link to the track "Desire". Like, he didn't just start jumping up and down in his flip flops touting the cream stout from the brewery that only brews beers with adjuncts grown in puddles along the Mississip (No i, he's old escuela), TOM WENT FUCKING CRAZY FOR THIS BAND.

I like it when I feed Tom bands to pee over, sure, but he went so fucking crazy for the Dilly Dally album that he's already started to fucking bug me when discussing them. 

BUT HEY, THEY'RE GOING ON TOUR AND WE WANT YOU TO SHOWER THEM IN CASH THIS FALL/WINTER OKAY!

In honor of their tour (click here for dates), we had to ask them 5 quick questions to see if we could confuse them like they've confused Tom's sexuality.

OUR DUMB 5 QUESTION INTERVIEW WITH DILLY DALLY STARTS NOW:


SYFFAL: 5. Your first show of your North American tour starts in Chicago on October 21st, 2015, where are you planning on eating before and after? Kuma's, Chicago Diner, or Pequod's? Why the fuck haven't you decided?

Dilly Dally: Ugh there was some diner we went to once that Tom Waits likes or something. The booths were elevated. dope food. Can you guys tell me what it's called maybe? we haven't decided.

SYFFAL: 4. Seeing as how I am an American male and every idea I have is correct and worthy of praise, do you tell people you're in a german electro ska band or just lie to people?

Dilly Dally: No we never lie. 

SYFFAL: 3. #SKALIVES It seems like a lot of your musical influences come from various molds and yeasts, when you guys graduate the seminary, are you going to give back to the community by hosting bunco parties or are you going to be yet another leach on society by merely paying taxes you fucking assholes?

Dilly Dally: No we're gunna throw plenty of bunco parties. whatever those are. We're into it, man. 

SYFFAL: 2. Bunco parties are the parties you throw BEFORE the key parties. When you guys were deciding on a name, why didn't you pick something that would look less awesome in a curvy curly script? What other band names might you have been/might someday be if the Dilly Dally goes the way of those who dilly dally?

Dilly Dally: Ummmm.... the font came later. It was a pretty natural process. I don't have a back up band name handy for this question. 

SYFFAL: 1. Then we'll just go with Hoodie Foodie Spaceballs & The Pilgrim Dieticians. How many tattoos do you guys have between you? Second part of that question, if you were forced into getting a tattoo that differentiated you as being part of the creative class, for each of you, where would it be, what would it be of, and would you wear clothing that accentuated the amazing cheekbones that each of you bare?

Dilly Dally: 20 tats!! We don't understand question.

SYFFAL: Figures. NOW GO FORTH, TO LOVE AND TO MELT THE FACES OFF THE REST OF THE COUNTRY DAMNIT.

Go see this band you assholes. CLICK FOR THEIR CALENDAR!
