Hepcat
Interviews | Feb 24th, 2005
What’s a hepcat and do they meow?
A Hepcat back in the old days was considered to be hep because he was cool. If you were slick, it would be ” hey check out that Hep-cat “. If you did good by other folks it would be “Man, that dude sure is one Hep-cat “. If you were knowledgeable about music and the scene surrounding you were regarded the same. When referred to by others you were “that Cat Timmy “. You dig what I’m saying? Not a meow, not a word- Dig?
if you were stranded on an island which two things of your choice…..What would you choose?
A girl with a big ass and one with a little one.
How long has hepcat been around for and how has ska changed since your first day?
12 years and counting chief… It’s gone from grapes to wine, marbles to dice, and from kisses to love..

No, I didn’t. But I did have to take E.S.L reading class in the 2nd grade of primary.
is there anything you guys regret doing as a band? if so….. what is it and why?
I think right now we all regret not playing. But that’s about it..

Efren has one or two but I don’t really go looking inside my man’s shorts too often.
Would you guys come to New Jersey to play my 23rd birthday party?
You didn’t come to my 23rd birthday party in California did you?
When people leave your shows………. what message would you like them to leave with?
Pretty much anything other than what they came in with.. The point is to give an alternate perspective chief..
What is your favorite song to perform and why?
Any of the instrumentals because then I get to be cheerleader and not look stupid like the male cheerleaders back in high school.
What’s it like going on tour with Hepcat? What do you guys do in your spare time…. etc?
None of us talk much really.. There are a lot of nods and grunts and gestures meaning agreement.. So we walk around a lot, meet people, and talk to them..
