Interview with Hector of Spider at the Punk Rock Holiday 2.4 in August 2024. The band had already blown me away when they played on the main stage two years ago. This year we were finally able to talk to Hector. He talked about energetic crowds, gaining new fans worldwide, and their unique punk rock style inspired by the early L.A. hardcore scene. The conversation delves into encounters with punk gangs in L.A., and memorable shows at venues like the Hollywood Palladium. They also touch on music influences, favorite pinball games, memories of playing video games, and the purity of tap water in Slovenia. The discussion shifts to emotions on stage, managing anger through music, and maintaining a positive mindset. Hector shares thoughts on engaging with different perspectives, combating right-wing ideologies, responsible alcohol consumption and being a positive influence for the next generation.
