You’ll have to watch the whole video because Petey will show up in the last video.

AwesomeBomb.net did an interview with Petey Williams this past Wed. It’s a really good listen especially at 17:00 minute mark. Just letting you know…lol.

Also The High Crusade will be doing a show November 19th @ the Lake Effect Festival at Blondie’s in Detroit!

It’s not out of the realm of ordinary that professional wrestlers delve into projects outside of wrestling, with music and movies being near the top of the list.

The latest wrestlers to follow their musical interests are Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin, TNA’s Motor City Machine Guns, and ex-TNA star Petey Williams.

Shelley, Sabin and Williams, along with friends Adam Tatro and Chris Plumb, are known as The High Crusade and, on September 7, released their debut CD, It’s Not What You Think.

The band members recently conducted a Q & A session with SLAM! Wrestling and tackled such topics as balancing wrestling and music, Dixie Carter’s feelings on the subject, groupies and following in the footsteps of past wrestlers-turned-musicians.

Okay while I know this is a Sabin interview he talks about The High Crusade and plus it’s a good read. xD

Today the Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) take a look at what they do in their free time away from the TNA Wrestling ring.

It’s been an enjoyable week off, BBQs, video games, relaxing, hanging out with friends and best of all The High Crusade finally got together after a long absence to practice.

The High Crusade is a rock and roll group based out of southeast Michigan consisting of:

Alex Shelley – Lead singer and fellow Motor City Machine Gun with myself.

Petey Williams – Rhythm Guitarist and fellow pro wrestler who fans will always remember as the man with “The Canadian Destroyer.”

Adam Tatro – Amazing drummer for THC and all around amazing musician. We grew up together and as much as I committed my life to pro wrestling, he committed his to music.

Chris Plum – Lead Guitar and another amazing musician. He and Adam have another band called Idol and the Whip, which are definitely worth checking out.

And myself on bass guitar. We have been working our asses off for the last several months putting an album together and all the hard work, long nights, and free studio time has paid off.

Yes, free studio time. We are fortunate enough that Adam owns and operates his own music studio: Mainstay Audio Recording located in Whitmore Lake, Michigan. Being able to have unlimited studio time is such a huge advantage for any kind of band. We have been able to smooth out any edges and make the music the very best it can be, without the burden of having to pay for more and more studio time.

The album is so close to being released, and all of us are very excited. All five of us have a shared common vision of rock and roll conditioned by different backgrounds, so we all add a little different flavor to the THC stew, with influences from bands like The Stooges, MC5, and Led Zeppelin. And it doesn’t hurt that Adam and Chris are amazingly talented musicians, either.

Watch for our debut album very soon, around late Spring/early Summer, and if you get a chance to see us live, come say hello. We are looking to play more live shows, but with the Pro Wrestling schedule, it’s not easy.

Until next time, Rock and Roll.

I heard it on the radio oddly enough seeing as how I hardly ever listen to AM but I caught part of an intervew they were doing that just so happened to be with Petey Williams.
