-Matt: Not exactly. Don't get me wrong, I can do it, but that's not why. It's named after a wonderful piece of artwork that was featured in one of the York High School art shows. Sean Ahmad, thank you for your inspiration.

-WCWZ: Besides making your penis growl, what other things do you do while you're not playing in Boy Lion?

-Matt: Well, I am the Vice-President of the DePaul Dodgeball Society...there are currently over 60 members and I'm more than a little disappointed with the fact that you never come out. Travis is working on a band called "something" North Star and some DePaul kids and I are starting the Fucking Brown Party. We work and go to school too.

-WCWZ: Tell us about your relationship with MOC Records.

-Matt: Well I guess Nick (drummer) sent out our demo CD to MOC and Voss liked it and came out to see us and liked that too and offered to put out our CD. Right now we are still looking to record a full length to be released this summer. He's been super nice to us and has been promoting our shows and helping us out and we couldn't be happier.

-WCWZ: Both you and I play tennis. Do you think I could still beat you 6-0, 6-0 if I lost one of my legs and one of my arms?

-Matt: More than likely. I played my Dad a bit over winter break and I still can't beat him so I'm going to assume that you'd whoop me like usual. I'm willing to give it a shot whenever you are ready.

-WCWZ: Why is Elmhurst better than Villa Park… wait, let me rephrase that, why will Villa Park never be better than Elmhurst?

-Matt: It's like this... we are. Period. I don't really want to get into it all. I mean, we love plenty of kids from across the border but when it comes to the actual town... Elmhurst will take V.P. any day of the week. I mean, our town motto is "Elmhurst, A Proud Community." I think V.P.'s motto is, "The McDonalds Indoor Playground is really nice."

-WCWZ: What would Boy Lion sound like if you had no members in the band?

-Matt: It's like the sound of one hand clapping, without the rest, there isn't much rock you know? The actual Boy Lion sound is halfway between a kid going through puberty and a lame roar.

-WCWZ: Explain to the readers a little bit about the anti-Mojo's movement that you seem to be apart of?

-Matt: Ok. This "venue", if you want to call it that, just bends customers over and screws them all. If you haven't heard the story it goes a little like this. We arrive to play at 5:30 for a 6:00 show and are then informed that the show won't begin until 9. They make anyone who is waiting to see the show buy a drink to stay in the building. At 9 they make everyone exit and stand in the cold, pay to get back in, then buy another drink. Buy now everyone has paid at least a good $10 bucks and then the bands play and before God's Reflex even gets a chance to rock they close the place down and yell at us to get out. It was the most unprofessional and exploitative thing I've ever seen. I don't recommend anyone go or play there. Sorry that's a long story.

-WCWZ: Any words of wisdom?

-Matt: Go to www.boylion.com. I don't know when this is being put out but we are playing like mad in April so come check it out. You should also come to Dodgeball Monday nights at DePaul at 9 PM. And check out the new MOC records site at www.mocrecords.com. I love you Durkin. Fucking Brown Party!!
