If I had a nickel for every time a man in an alt band had a weird spelling of the name Jeffrey then I'd have two nickels. Which doesn't sound like a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice.

Thursday's Geoff Rickly

By Auren Suicide Mar 6, 2009

Geoffrey Rickly has been singing for the critically acclaimed, post-hardcore band Thursday for over ten years. But only now could he release an album as acomplished as Common Existence. Finding a balance between his bookish smarts, taste for social and personal awareness, and a decade of being in a band, Thursday have compiled their most aggressive, mature and best work to date. We called up Geoffrey to talk about it -- and share a 'Common Experience.'

Auren Suicide: Can I tell you a funny story?

Geoffrey Rickly: Absolutely.

AS: I actually met you on the Warped Tour. I'm in a band, and the first day we were on the tour, my band and I were wandering around, completely miserable in the heat, and you let us come on your bus to hang out in the air conditioning.

GR: I remember that! What's the name of your band?

AS: Rocket.

GR: I totally remember that. You gave me some stickers! We totally had Rocket stickers up.

AS: We did give you stickers! You do remember! We were so grateful the whole rest of the summer. We were like, "What a nice guy that Geoff is!"

GR: [laughs] Alright! Can I tell you something kind of funny?

AS: Sure.

GR: To tell you the truth, I was sort of wondering about this interview because the last time I did an interview with SuicideGirls was at Warped Tour in LA, and there were three women who interviewed me. I didn't know what SuicideGirls was yet. This was maybe in 2002 or 2003. After the interview they were like, "It's a really bad neighborhood, can you walk us to the bathroom?" And I was like, "Yeah, sure."

AS: Okay…

GR: And then they were like, "Can you come inside with us actually?"

AS: No!

GR: I was like, "Uh, no, I don't think I can do that, that's not appropriate, there are probably other girls in there." And they were saying, "No, we'll check-there's no other girls in there." So I just said, "No, I'm not going to do that." I really didn't know what was going on. Then later it just hit me and I realized that they were trying to get me to go in the bathroom and make out with them. So…I seriously didn't know what was going on. I couldn't figure out why they were trying to make me go in the bathroom with them!

AS: Well at least this interview is on the phone, so don't worry, there is no danger of that happening.

GR: I was worried that this interview was going to be with one of those girls and that they were going to be like, "Man, you had no idea what was the fuck going on."

[No previous interview with Geoff has been featured on SG -- we therefore must surmise that some imposters tried to lead him astray -- Ed.]

AS: That's incredible. Are you sad you didn't go in the bathroom?

GR: I don't know. Truth be told, if I had known what they wanted to do I might have been into it. I was a lot younger then, and it was before I was attached or anything.

Geoff Rickly will write multiple songs about sparks and talk about how he ran around “putting out fires” all day and then he’s surprised when the equipment sparks and tries to start a fire on stage.

Make that man go outside, spin around three times, spit, swear, knock three times, and then ask to be let back inside before he can play another show because he’s got a fuckin curse.

GEOFFREY WILLIAM RICKLY

[acitybythelightdivided2006]

this is the most heartbreaking page in the book so far to me but i do find it mildly amusing that geoffrey rickly knows full well that he is like a little puppy dog to so many people
