Hockey Learn to Watch What They Drink the Hard Way

Warning: the following story about Portland new wave darlings Hockey is about the harm caused by urinating in the confines of a touring vehicle. It's revolting. Read on if you dare, but don't blame Spinner if you get sick.

Most bands that travel the world will have their fair share of tour mishaps, and Hockey is no exception. In fact, they might even get our vote for having one of the most vile stories from the road we've heard in some time. Take it away, gentlemen.

"Jeremy drank my pee once," drummer Anthony Stassi tells Spinner, referring to the band's bassist Jeremy Reynolds. "We were coming home from Colorado. You know, when you're on the road and you're driving with a bunch of guys, you don't want to be stopping every ten minutes, so you pee in bottles. So I peed in a Sobe bottle, a Sobe berry bottle."

Lead singer Benjamin Grubin continues, "...and then Jerm dropped the car off to be fixed. When he went to pick it up he said he was so thirsty, he just saw that sitting there and thought it was like, ya know..."

"He just unscrewed it and chugged the thing, and kind of had a flashback of what it was," Stassi says. "He swallowed it, then he went and bought, like, a fifth of whiskey and drank it in the hopes of killing any bacteria."

So, did Reynolds think it was an effective remedy? "Probably not. It probably didn't work. He was probably just drunk with my pee in his stomach."

Apparently, as Hockey can more than attest to, boys really will be boys. Disgusting, dirty boys
