Shep and Ramzi of Weedeater playing it slow
To the uninitiated, Dave “Dixie” Collins can easily be perceived as a scary guy. Known for making crazy Manson eyes on stage and accidentally shooting his big toe off while cleaning a shotgun, he’s certainly not a hippie death cult leader lacking in firearms safety skills. What Collins has accomplished is surviving 25 years in the music industry without compromising a damn thing.
Collins joined proto-sludge pioneers Buzzov en on bass in 1997 and stayed for three years as their reputation for dangerous and violent shows grew. He then struck out on his own with current guitarist and a favorite of The Melvins’ King Buzzo Dave “Shep” Shepherd, along with original drummer Travis Owen, who years later helped launch Atlanta’s noise lords Whores. Former Buzzov en drummer Ramzi Ateyeh joined Weedeater in 2019. After creeping along for more than two decades, the band has not sped up at all.
