Philoceraptor is Justin, Phil and Steve. I caught this new local band at the end of a session in their Yaletown practice space. They were a couple of beers into the night, which made for a perfect time to chat.

The band is unique because Philoceraptor is a two guitar and drum kit trio. When I asked them what it would take to get a bass player in the band, Steve told me that he was the taco eating champion of the band. And that any bass player would have to beat his taco-eating record, 39 tacos in one hour, in order to join Philoceraptor. “Not a single note until you are at 40 tacos in one hour.” I think this sums these guys up perfectly.

Listen to our excellent chat for some more crazy moments, including when I get the guys to do a Philoceraptor cry. Beer does wonders.
