Spitalfield on Spitalfield in Five Words or Less:

Fanny pack collectors and distributors.

Well, give us a taste of what you would've been like on Warped Tour. What's the craziest thing you've done on stage?
One time, we played in our band name, and we busted into what we call "Seinfield," which is playing the baseline for Seinfeld and asking questions like, "What exactly is a Spitalfield? How do you even say that word? They're not spital, they're not field" -- just really bad Jerry Seinfeld-type dialogue. And nobody thought it was funny. A lot of our humor involves saying things that are inside jokes or that are over people's heads sometimes -- that's one of the things we do to keep us sane. There was a period of time [where] I started reciting words to '90s songs -- I'd say them as if they weren't lyrics, [like] I'd say the lyrics to "Waterfalls" by TLC. I'd say, "You know, guys -- just stick to the lakes and the rivers that you're used to." Sometimes people catch it, and sometimes they don't. That type of stuff is hilarious to me because that one guy who catches it just loves it!

You Say!
