During a recent interview with Ghost Cult, Kirk Windstein offered an update on Down’s new covers EP. According to him, the group “just need to get [their] butts in a room together and pick the shit out and Down it up a little bit.”
Windstein said the following:
“A lot of people have been asking about that yet; that’s true. We just need to get our butts in a room together and pick the shit out and DOWN it up a little bit, so to speak. But that’s the only thing in the future as of now. But it’s something.”
He also added the following when asked if Down are still planning to head out on their “NOLA” 25th anniversary tour, which was scrapped due to the pandemic:
“I sure hope so. I mean, we have [shows booked in] Dallas and I believe we have one in Atlanta, and we have [Welcome To] Rockville, we have a festival in Florida — as far as I know.
But yeah, I’m optimistic [that we will be able to do a short ‘NOLA’ anniversary tour], I get it that maybe DOWN is not in a position to do a lot of touring anymore or anything, but for god’s sake, we can at least do mainly Southeast of the United States, a bit of the Midwest — not to dick you over on the West Coast, but without going thousands of miles away — do something. But we’ll see. Right now, of course, everyone’s concern is just doing what we have booked already and hoping that that goes smoothly.”
Here’s the band’s current dates:
05/19 Daytona Beach, FL – Welcome To Rockville
05/20 Atlanta, GA – Buckhead Theatre
05/22 Dallas, TX – Amplified Live
