Knothead  caught up with Dirtbag Dan in Portland, Oregon in the 4th week of the Hunger Pains tour for an in depth, beard to goatee chat.

In this, part one of a two part interview, DirtbagDan talks: Touring. How he’s being received by the hardcore underground. Playing in front of different types of fans and how crazy it can be. Musical performances vs. battling performances Talks about both Strange Music fans and Juggalos and how they have supported him. His rap battle with Mac Lethal , and with The Madchild & fans reactions to both.

For those who have missed out on him so far Dirtbag Dan is not to be slept on. The man has some of the most prolific lyrics out there. He has been running his own podcast since 2012 and keeps climbing the ladder from the Bay Area to be heard nationwide.
