Ep. #1068: Sahan Jayasuriya on ‘Don’t Say Please: The Oral History of Die Kreuzen’

Sahan Jayasuriya is here to discuss his book, Don’t Say Please: The Oral History of Die Kreuzen, loving living in Milwaukee, benefitting from the reverence that artists like Beastie Boys and Nirvana exhibited for their own influences and favourite musicians, discovering that people like Neko Case, Matt Sweeney, Dave Grohl, and David Pajo all love Die Kreuzen as he was writing a book about them, what compelled him to tell this story and his perspective on the band’s trajectory, legacy, potential reunion shows and reissues, renewed interest in his own band Good Night & Good Morning, future writing prospects, and much more.
