In this episode, we bring you “The Chalice,” part 2, focusing on the live presentation of the song. The guys explain why the live version is so much faster and more aggressive than the studio recordings. Dusty breaks down his take on the drum parts originally recorded by Pat Bailey. You will also learn the origins of the haunting intro sample. But much of the episode is devoted to Night Demon’s demonized priest mascot, Rocky, who is inextricably connected to “The Chalice” in Night Demon performances. The band describes when, how and why Rocky was brought to life, and how Rocky has become an integral part of the Night Demon live show. Band members and people who have played Rocky share stories and anecdotes of memorable moments, wardrobe malfunctions, snafus, and the unpredictable mayhem that always accompanies Rocky’s appearance on stage. Lastly, Jarvis hints at an expansion of Rocky’s story on forthcoming Night Demon material.
