ULFChris:First,introduce the band.
My Son Cid: Im John and i play bass, Chris plays lead guitar,
Kirk does lead vocals, and Scott plays drums. We are
still looking for a permanent drummer so Scott can
move over to rythem guitar.
ULFChris: How long have you guys been together and how did it start?
My Son Cid: Well the band originally started in 2002 but has
gone under a lot of different member changes for tons
of different reasons. Some for bad things going on
between members but mostly just people moving on to
where they felt called in life. But this line-up has
been together for about 3 months now. Anything else
before is good history and times for us but this is
who the band is now and we're a whole new entity.
ULFChris: What is yalls main goal?
MSC: Our main goal is to reflect Jesus' teachings and
our beliefs through our music. A lot of people in the
punk scene have a distorted view on what Christianity
is really all about because they see TV evangelist
like Pat Robertson or men like Jerry Falwell who we
believe greatly twist meaning of verses and neglect
some of the most basic and important teachings of
Jesus. We want to show a better side of christianity
to those whose existance is ignored by the church
through personal means. It has never been a main
lyrical subject for us though we do tackle it every
once in a while. but mainly we talk about social
issues that we see plaguing both individuals in
society and society as a whole.
ULFChris: What does this band mean to you?
MSC: This band means everything to me. It means the path
that God has layed before me. It means a voice to say
what i am thinking and believe. It means hope. Im not
really sure if that is what you are looking for but
thats what i feel when i think about MySonCid.
ULF Chris: Any cool stories?
MSC: When we first started we used to try and get a
stuffed animal for every city we played in but that
didnt end up working so well. Uhm, at this festival
called "YeshuaFest" in Mansfield, Ohio our former
drummer Andy was driving his van filled with people
and we almost drove over this cliff cuz it was so dark
and foggy out and the roads were icy. After a show
with SideWalkSlam we went behind the strip mall and
made some "bombs" with 2liters, tin foil, and "the
works" toilet bowl cleaner. it was about 2am and the
police helicopter kept flying in circles around us so
we had to take off.
ULF Chris: Whats going on with the band now?I belive yall have a demo out or something?
M.S.C: Well since the major overhaul in the band (me and
chris no longer singing and kirk putting down his
guitar to just handle lead vocals and scott joining to
fill in on drums) we have been writing new songs and
gigging out. we have about 6 or 7 songs recorded that
we arent sure if we are going to put out an EP or just
wait and do a full lenght, but we'll know that for
sure soon. You can listen/download 4 tracks off of our
myspace (www.myspace.com/mysoncid). But thats really
all we're doing, oh! besides looking for a permanent
drummer!!!!
ULF Chris: Last Words?
M.S.C.:Just thanks for interviewing us and thanks to all
the people who've been giving us tons of support and
encouragement lately. We hope to have the full length
out as soon as possible and possible an EP to pass the
time. Remember that things in this world go beyond
ourselves so anyway we can help anyone else is golden.
lets take care of our brothers and sisters in this
world! And check us out on www.mysoncid.com and
