How sad is the state of music when King's X can't make a living with what they do?! One of the most, if not the most, underrated bands of all-time! Everything dUg does is gold!
Chris Branco Thank, in part, the fuckers who rob them -and all bands- by posting their albums here on the world's biggest illegal music streaming site.
ROOKTABULA im not sure it's piracy lots of bands sill thrive its just this weird thing where everyone who likes kings x is a musician and its not a big enough market
@@ROOKTABULA Truth!
I so agree they are one of the best original band if have ever heard the music today is all shit King's X is real music nobody sounds like them it's so good!
Nothing but love, respect, and admiration for this guy. Let's all buy his solo record and get two people we know to buy it. It's a downright crime that he's not set for life off of kings x.
Sometimes in life you look back and realise how lucky you were to be in the right place at the right time - in 1991 I saw King's X support AC/DC in Glasgow, Scotland. I instantly knew watching Kings X that I was seeing the kind of band you only get every now and then. Great songs, amazing players and what really blew me away was that all 3 of them sang in harmony perfectly in all the songs. It sounded like 5 guys on stage but it was only the 3 of them creating this amazing sound on amazing songs. I immediately bought 'Out of the Silent Planet' and 'Gretchen..' and I was blown away. I played my 'Gretchen' cassette constantly until I had to buy the CD!
Every single King's X fan cannot understand why they never got far, far bigger selling millions of albums but sometimes I like that they are not too popular - it still feels like they are a 'secret' band that only few people know about and I don't want them to turn into something like U2 or Metallica in terms of numbers, I love that I really dig this band that still so many music lovers are unaware of. I do want them to be financially ok because compared to some high-selling crap music out there, these guys are just legendary to me. I hope I get to see them again some day but if it does not happen, at least I'll always know that 'I WAS there....' Peace.
I seen King's X with AC/DC on that tour also. they put on a helluva show!
I was at that gig too, I just wanted to see Kings X.
Great interview, Mike! dUg is such an amazing person...it breaks my heart to hear him say that he can't make a living in King's X, but I totally get it. Buy this guy's stuff!
Dug Pinnick - 63 in 2014. Man I can't believe it - he looks so youthful and he hasnt changed much. It'sUnbelievable that this band can't make a living at what they do. They should be huge - incredible band. Great, great musicians. I am so looking forward to seeing them at the Sage, Gateshead later this year.
I wish Dug all the success he deserves. His singing and playing have influenced me since the beginning of Kings X.
We as a planet of idiots are SO fortunate to be able to hear this gentleman's voice DUg = Absolute Genius All you earthlings bow down to Mr Pinnic
You're the stuff Doug.
Thanks to you and the boys in King's X for all the quality throughout the decades.
Hope all is well with Jerry and Ty as well.
Superior drums and guitar
For the longest time Ty Tabor's sound/tone was so incredibly awesome and he kept his amp's a complete secret... Finally he let it out that he had some old Lab Series Amp's and I realized that I used to have one of those solid state rigs. Great sound.
Dug is the man....he lives and breathes music.i hope he sells a zillion he deserves it
Such a shame. Kings X should be enough to make a living!! I bought all the records so far. Hope the rest of you Kings X fans did also... Love you dUg
The most underrated band ever.
Second most after Extreme maybe.
Such a class act! I don't know any 63 year olds that look as half as good as Dug!
Absolutely!
Dug's a trooper & a damn inspiration! I wish them the best and all success because he deserves it!
KXM album is really good! Worth checking this out!
well, KXM charting as respectfully high as it has been could shake things up a bit for the king's x world..i kind of had a feeling that X wasnt making a living because they tour so sparingly..but its true, the industry is like that. ive loved king's x since 1990, they are so versatile, truly talented. really good to see dug livin' the dream. love to dug always!
Life sucks. The world needs a new King's X record.
It is coming this year...
I love dUg----great guy. Hope he has gotten better. Was able to catch him at the Jimmy Hendrix Experience ACL 2019...he was the only one that sounded just like Jimmy
Jimi
Love me some Dug !!! What a talented man, I would love to do a record with him !!! Nixon/pinnick !!!!
Have managed to get my hands on a copy of the Doug Pinnick cd. Thoroughly enjoyable as well! An excellent purchase!
I friggin LOVE PGP!
dUg!!! He's amazing!
Just came back to Kings X and actually bothered to look into them. They seem like proper down-to-earth nice guys. Doug in particular here is just such a humble dude.
mike mcgruff, TERRIFIC, and SOLID N DETAILED interview. Filled with alotta shit i didn't even know dUg was into. Thank you so much for not just going over same ol same ol. Had NO IDEA about 3rd Ear Exp and now...starting to digdug in that as well...
Can not WAIT for the KXM record!!!
doug is a living legend, dude just turned 70 last september, wow!
Great to see the success of KXM on the charts.
dUg! In lala land? Happy to run into you some time. Thanks for all the jams!

So you're 63 in this video - I will never complain again.
Be well my friend.
Thanks for your art from Las Vegas.
Hey Dug I met you in Houston Fitzgerald's through psycho Brenda... Take care of yourself. You are awesome brother!
he's 63?!! He looks like he's in his mid-late 40s!
How is it possible that Dug is almost 70.....crazy. He looks like he is half that...
Love this band!
Man...Dug should be a millionaire several times over! I adore KX and i'll always support them and any projects that they are involved in!
❤💚💜💛💙
I met Dug, nice guy

man wtf ,he is 63????? I'm 36 and I look older then him,realy!!
That EXACT same Hernia issue happened to me!
dug rules.....
Bad ass
dUg The Pound Hound!!
I remember when i found out how old he was. I about shit.
This may sound strange... but he's got some absolutely beautiful hands.
You're right, that sounds fucked up.
Can't make a living doing King's X? That's sad. They are so good. I'm seeing them 9/9 in Columbus, Ohio. 🤓
For those of you that download music illegally and share files: You are screwing over the man in this interview and his bandmates. If you like what he does, buy his music, go to his concerts, and buy a T-shirt every now and then. If you don’t, all that amazing music will go away.
sad that he can't make a living doing just King's X albums and shows and merch?
Dang he has more projects going than anybody. Does he ever sleep?
you gotta loose that belt buckle -- hate to see you go down like that bro--- got wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to much respect for ya doug -- one black rocker to another
what does that mean loser?
@@thestrangemanreturnsit means the fallen angels are doomed to hell don't go with them
Before King's X they were Sneak Preview from Missouri with the original members. They hate to admit their old Christian rock roots.
Yeah because it puts them into a small box.
Funny... Kings X draws a big crowd every show I go. How are they not making money at it?
He says he can't make a living being in King's X, but at one time, all three of them did. Back in the early 90's.
and i am still trying to get a successful band going? being a musician = UNDERAPPRECIATED.
Everybody that love's King's X should buy their music and support them it makes me sick that people like Taylor Swift is making the kind of money she make and it sounds like shit!
Hey Hi Ho Yo
Ok then.
"The record companies own everything"... yeah. Everything but the requisite talent to actually create the music. Users & abusers
world’s youngest-looking 63yo
I love Kings X but Dug simply gets on my nerves. Lives in LA, owns at least one house elsewhere and yet he claims to be broke and was e-begging for money for medical treatment. He's pissed his money up a wall and then has the nerve to ask fans for money like that. At 63 years old he should be ashamed of himself.
You don't seem to realise a. How much medical care costs in the u.s.a. and b. How very little any band outside of top 40 radio makes.
sourcescience Fuck you! Do you think he's a multi millionaire? KING'S X has never had a gold record, a hit single, never sold out an arena, apparently you didn't hear him say "we can't make a living bieng KING'S X!" The number one cause of bankruptcy in America is medical emergencies. Why don't you just start barking out loud, you would make more sense.
