Ryan Shuck of Orgy mentions Videodrone several times in an interview with James Wright of Shoutweb. For a complete transcript of the Ryan Shuck interview, click here, or read on for the Videodrone excerpts. When James asks: "What was the most beneficial tour for you guys? Was it Family Values? To reach that many people on your first tour is amazing!" Ryan Shuck replies: ..."But one of the best tours for us was the tour we did with Videodrone, our label mates. They are all from my hometown and same for Korn. Going on that tour was literally like taking your best friends on the road with you and that was our first headlining tour so we were in all our glory and we brought all our own show, our own lights and just all our stuff. It's like all our tours were different so it's hard to say which one was the best 'cause they were all different experiences. The Sugar Ray/Orgy was really diverse and they were our buddies from back home. The Korn/Family Values thing was huge and monstrous, The Love and Rockets tour we were out with our idols and the Videodrone tour we were out with best friends and getting really popular so it was cool. We were selling out shows on our own which is a neat feeling!" Also, near the very end of the interview when asked if he had anything else to say, Ryan says this of Videodrone and Drown: ". Also by all means go out there and check out new bands like Videodrone and Drown. There are a lot of new bands coming up that they should support cause it'll help bands like us break through and make good music."
