As always, SPOILER ALERT for any of the movies we discuss!

On this special episode of Piecing It Together, Kris West of Spiral Out, Reel Sick and This Movie Tastes Like Music Podcasts joins me at a special event that took place in Downtown Las Vegas to celebrate the release of Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die! to talk to Danny Carey from TOOL and Scott Kirkland of The Crystal Method. These two had a hand in the soundtrack of the film and inexplicably ended up part of this huge celebration down Fremont Street including a marching band, mexican food and more... And then we randomly got to interview them!

Since the interviews fit more on Kris's podcasts, he did the actual talking so we could fit them onto both of our podcasts, so make sure to check out everything Kris is up to and make sure to watch Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die! and then listen to my previous episode on the film.
