Yeah for some people naming a band is the best part. For others the name doesn’t mean jack, its just a way to catch attention. Yet, what is the point of a name except to represent what the “band” is all about. A band is supposed to share in that meaning. So what does UnNamed Servant mean you ask? Actually, that’s something the band has made somewhat of a pre-performance ritual. Picture four guys huddled in a circle backstage, in a bathroom, or huddled behind a curtain, each taking a turn while looking each other in the eyes and saying, “UnNamed Servant means ______”. Yeah I know its sounds pretty serious…but that’s just the kind of band we are. Here are some highlight answers over the years – “play like its the last time, skill, passion, nothing to lose, a message, …I suppose you could fill in the blank with lots of things but it doesn’t really matter if we the band doesn’t live up to meaning of our name. So like I said in the beginning,  the hardest part of being a band is sharing a name!

Its difficult to pick out a single story but one that sticks out in my mind was the time we had to sleep on sidewalk pavement at a rest stop in the middle of night in Wisconsin (wavy dream lines flashback)

We were on a way back from our midwest OOFDA tour and we were exhausted! Our driver must have been too because he didn’t see the ENORMOUS pothole that he hit full force. It was 3 am so I suspect his eyes weren’t wide open if you know what I am sayin’. Especially considering he had already missed an exit and put us on an hour detour.

When we pulled off the highway the back right tire of our trailer was ripped to shreds it the debris tore our trailer wheel fender clean off as well. We all just stood in awe looking at the destruction, as we slowly realized how in the middle of nowhere we were – no lights, no cars, no people. Just the orange glow of rest stop lights and not a tire shop for miles.

So what about the spare Rob? Ya I was asking the same question. We didn’t have one. Someone forgot to double check that little detail. I might have been me but that’s not important right now…What is important is that we were 5 guys in a 15 passenger, with a tireless trailer at 3 am in the middle of nowheresville Wisconsin with nothing to do but wait til a mechanic shop might open in the morning.

No problem right? Sleep in the van the common sense choice. Well it gets hot on a summer’s night in a van with 4 guys breathing and expelling who knows what else. So we opted for the sidewalk pavement at the rest stop (the clearly more memorable choice). When morning came  we were quite a site, bedhead, gravel on the side of our face, shoeless …You wouldn’t think you could get bed head sleeping on the ground but you can.

Amazingly without even calling a tire shop a really old guy in a truck woke us up off the ground and volunteered to fix our tire. We looked so pitiful he actually gave us the tire for free. When we asked where his shop was he just pointed in a random direction and quickly changed the subject.  I think he was an angel because he was really generous but he also smoked and cursed to try and hide his true angel identity. I guess time will tell.

By the way that trailer was stolen years later with 1,000’s of dollars of our gear. If you see a white 2 wheel straight axel trailer with the right fender blown off send us an email. Welp, until next time I hope you enjoyed STORIES FROM THE ROAD
