TESLA Interviewed At KSHE 95 'Pig Roast' (Video)

September 20, 2010

St. Louis radio station KSHE 95 conducted an interview with Californian rockers TESLA at this year's Pig Roast, which was held on Saturday, September 18 at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Maryland Heights, Missouri. You can now watch the chat below.

TESLA released a new live album, appropriately titled "Alive In Europe!", in Europe on April 23 via Frontiers Records.

In a recent interview with The Breakdown Room's Brian Heaton, TESLA bassist Brian Wheat that the band was working on two separate live albums — the first consisting of live recordings solely from TESLA's shows overseas, and the second featuring songs performed and recorded in the United States.

"I could have just done one big live record, but I wanted the European fans to have their own piece of TESLA," Wheat said. "We completely ignored them from 1991 to 2006, although we go there a lot now. I just wanted to say, 'Hey, look, this one is for you.'"

According to Wheat, "Alive In Europe!" was to be a more "hits-oriented" collection of songs, whereas its U.S. counterpart would likely focus on some of TESLA's more obscure cuts.

"There will be some overlap, but not much," Wheat said. "Americans got the DVD, 'Comin' Atacha Live 2008', and that had a lot of hits. So the American [live album] will have stuff we haven't played in a long time or played ever."
