Since The Devil Wears Prada's Mike Hranica appears on the cover of Revolver's new supervillain-themed issue, when we caught up with Hranica and Andy Trick backstage at Rock on the Range, we asked them what kind of villain they would be, if they would be sidekicks, and what kind of superpower The Devil Wears Prada's music has, and much more! Check out the video below!

Entry by Middy.

After playing at the YouTube spaces, hanging out with Sebastian Bach and spending a night with our friends at the Rainbow, you can imagine the size of the sledgehammer banging inside my head the day after. The late check-out was definitely in order. Fuck the breakfast, we had to leave straight after the wake up call to LAX to catch a plane to Chicago so that we could hook up with the Amaranth guys and continue the tour. No rest for the wicked, right?

We arrived to Chicago late at night and grabbed our stuff from the baggage claim. Then the Spinal Tap started. We took a cab and stuffed our gear and gave the driver the address where the bus was at. What we didn't know was that it was the wrong address, that we had to drive across the state border and that the ride would eventually take over two hours. It's close by, they said. At the point when even the lady at the gas station looks at your cab outside laughs at you and says that "You guys are in are in the middle of nowhere. Are guys sure where you going?" then you know that you're really lost. Well, we found the bus and got to Mojoes at Joliet, Illinois on time. The show was badass and from this on it was just traveling with the bus. No more airports and no more tight schedules, or so we thought.

Next up was the hometown of Prince or the artist formerly known as Prince or …. damn I don't have the button for that one. We got to the sunny Minneapolis. We loaded in our stuff to the venue called Mill City Nights. That night the place was packed and the crowd was mental. Afterwards we hanged out with some local folks and enjoyed ourselves across the street where these two guys jammed old Bon Jovi songs with two pianos but like always the party popper bus call ended the partys way too early. Next up was three shows in Canada and probably the most memorable show of the tour in Calgary. The show was at this intimate club called Republik and the crowd was insane. It was just a matter of time when the crowd would have taken over the stage. You can't describe the feeling when you go to a city you've never been in and people know your lyrics, they're jumping up and down and as a cherry on top of the cake, this dude in the front row has a Santa Cruz tattoo. We were blown away by the gig and the Canadian hospitality that made us arrive back to bus 7AM.

The next morning. Then we had our first proper and needed day-off of the tour. We spent the day in the Canadian Rockies at a little town called Kamloops and spent the day hiking at the mountains. Yes, rock bands do other things on the road than just play gigs and drink 'til the morning light—at least so I've heard that some bands did it back in the early '60s. Or then it's just an urban tale. Just when things started to roll too smooth it finally happened, yes, you guessed it the fucking bus broke down. Somewhere at the Rockies the cops pulled us over for the broken taillight and further inspections also found out that we had a flat tire, ups. Not that we weren't already late on top of that, we had to wait for a new tire for 4 hours at the side of the road, rock star city life. Well shit happens, but we made it to Vancouver an hour before the doors. As we arrived to the Rickshaw Theater we saw probably the most saddest and fucked up sights of our lives. The people on the street looked like they had escaped from 'The Walking Dead.' Doing crack in front of their four wheel homes that you guys are probably more customer to pile up groceries at Walmart. Not the merriest feeling seeing other people without a chance to taste the high end of low. Thank god the things looked a bit brighter for us as we heard the roar of the engines and started our journey towards U.S. border and the home of the grunge Seattle, Washington.

Stay tuned for the part 3!!! Peace out.
