THE NEW GAY
 
 

School of Etiquette includes another song called Back to Bed”; Leslie Satterfield thinks that a playful video for this song was misunderstood.  In a 2009 interview for an online magazine called The New Gay, she was asked about “inter-band dating”.  After acknowledging that there was some – at one point, Boyskout put a stop to the practice since it was causing so much tension in the band – Satterfield then went on:  “One of the members that I really loved and felt like was a really great member for our first record was this girl Hannah [Reiff].  In one of our videos – everyone was like, ‘Oh, all the BoySkouts are kissing each other’.  That really wasn’t true.  Hannah and I made out, but we were dating at the time.” 

 

Speaking in the 2009 interview in The New GayIngrid Dahl says of the band:  “Right now we’ve been adjusting to new members.  Boyskout is very transient, members come and go a lot.  We’re all in different projects.  We’re only playing 4 or 5 shows a year.  Playing Phasefest is a big deal.  We’re not even playing Brooklyn where we have a pretty strong fan base.  We’ve declined tours with bands.  We’re all in new projects.”
