While you may not have heard of a band called Eastern Conference Champions just yet, you will soon enough. Snagging a spot on the newly released ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ soundtrack, their song ‘A Million Miles An Hour’ is but one of their already amazing collection of accomplishments.
Bitchin’ Lifestyle chatted with ECC drummer Greg Lyons about the scarcity of soft pretzels in Los Angeles and got the 411 on how they are a part of the most widely talked about movie franchise around.
BL: How did ECC get involved with Twilight – are you aware of what a big deal it is?
GL:  The Twilight thing was months of hard work for us, lots of stress, lots of hearing “maybe” and all that. We knew we had a chance but we also knew that hundreds of other bands – most of whom were more well known than ECC – were going for it as well. When we got the placement the three of us knew it would be a big deal but probably didn’t anticipate how big it actually is.
BL: Robert Pattinson has legions of ravenous female fans willing to sell their first born for chance at meeting him, how do you think you all would react to such a level of fame?
GL:  We would cower and cry in a dark corner.

BL: Tell us about “A Million Miles An Hour” – what’s the song about?
GL: The song came together in a late night recording session just hours before we were leaving for Las Vegas to celebrate Josh’s birthday. It’s about how we feel we’re able to turn it up and come through with what we need to do at any given time and also about the never ending “hurry up and wait” moments that happen.
BL: What would you say are your musical influences? If you had to choose, which musical decade would you want to be a part of?
GL: We all grew up on a variety of music ranging from The Stones and The Beatles to The Pixies and The Jesus and Mary Chain, to anything and everything else.  As long as the music is good, we’ll like it.  This decade works fine for us as long as it has room for ECC.
