Want to have a hand in getting a brand new children's television show off the ground? What if I told you Foxy Shazam's Eric Naly and Bowling For Soup's Jaret Reddick were behind it? How about I stop talking and show you a teaser for it?
Looks pretty cool, right? They're trying to raise $150,000 to film a pilot so if you'd like to help out, head over to their Kickstarter page and check out The Shagoolies.

Rock With Humor: Our Interview With Bowling For Soup's Jaret Reddick
The first time I heard Bowling For Soup's "1985," I fell immediately in love with the song. But how could I not? With its great hooks and references to Springsteen, Madonna, Nirvana, U2, Blondie, MTV, Breakfast Club, Pretty In Pink, St. Elmo's Fire, Wham!, Duran Duran, Van Halen, Motley Crue, and Ozzy (not to mention having one of the funniest music videos of the past decade), it was right in my wheelhouse. I've been a fan ever since.
The band is getting ready for a US tour with Patent Pending, Freshman 15, and Sandlot Heroes, but frontman Jaret Reddick was nice enough to drop by and talk about touring, Christmas music, his sense of humor, and Phineas And Ferb.
Hi Jaret! How's it going today?
Things are good. Still recovering from a trip to the Middle East. I need sleep. Other than that, I am awesome!
Along with bassist Erik Chandler, you're about to embark on an acoustic UK tour followed in April by a US tour with the entire band. Do you prefer one type of tour over the other?
I love them both. Way different tours, both show-wise and even not show-wise. The bus is a lot quieter when it is just Erik and I.
There is absolutely nothing like a full band show, nothing in the world. But the acoustic thing is fun for us and for the fans. It is just really different.
Have I just said anything?
