HardLore is joined by close friend of the show and vocalist of the first ever band on the HardLore Records roster: Mac Miller (real name) of COSMIC JOKE. Fresh off of their brand new 12" EP "Forced Perspective", we hear all about their goal as a band to carry the torch for the classic style of California Hardcore Punk made famous by their influences (Bad Religion, Adolescents, Circle Jerks, etc...) and the long road as lifelong touring musicians and crew that got them there. From growing up at the Cobalt Cafe, connecting the dots between Ska and Hardcore, doing Warped Tour with The Sheds, finally playing Sound & Fury, transitioning into being a career merch guy for bands like Wallows, Death Cab, Denzel Curry and MUCH, much more.Pick up one of the last few copies of HardLore's exclusive color of Forced Perspective on our store while you still can: https://closedcasketactivities.com/products/cosmic-joke-forced-perspectiveEdited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf)HardLore: A Knotfest SeriesJoin the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepodJoin the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggefCool links:HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.comGet 15% off MADD VINTAGE with code HARDLORE15! https://maddvintage.com/ FOLLOW COSMIC JOKE: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/cosmicjokelaTWITTER | https://twitter.com/cosmicjokelaFOLLOW MAC: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/macxmillerTWITTER | https://twitter.com/macxmillerFOLLOW HARDLORE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepodSPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrpAPPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2FOLLOW COLIN:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/FOLLOW BO:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE00:00:00 - Start00:02:47 - Colin Meets Mac00:08:22 - Cosmic Joke Self Titled00:11:01 - Finally Playing Sound & Fury00:13:42 - Forced Perspective00:16:31 - Finding Punk, Hardcore, and Ska00:22:01 - First Show Ever00:23:20 - Young Morgan Miller00:26:37 - Feeding the Band With $500:27:40 - Clean House00:31:36 - First Tour00:34:41 - First time attending Warped Tour00:39:42 - PLAYING Warped Tour00:50:09 - Mediaskare00:53:40 - Top 4 Bald Guys00:59:20 - Tony Hawk01:03:17 - Attila Shirt...01:05:40 - Highs and Lows of doing Merch01:15:12 - Pardon This Interruption01:16:01 - Worst venue In the Country01:22:50 - Merch Cuts And How To Navigate Them01:30:20 - Merch Pet Peeves01:32:11 - Whats Hot?
