00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
Somewhere in the heavens your great Grammy Gertrude is crying because her little Bebo

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,800
is listening to this felt.

3
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,800
We're off to the races.

4
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:13,800
Okay.

5
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,800
Let me switch notebooks here.

6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:17,800
Alright.

7
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:23,000
So, um, can you beatbox any or not?

8
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,000
I can.

9
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Okay, alright.

10
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,000
I can beatbox very badly.

11
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,000
Yes, good.

12
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:35,000
And I can do the music creeps intro very badly, so let's go ahead.

13
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,000
We are the music creeps.

14
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Yes, yes, we are the music creeps.

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,000
As a nice addition.

16
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,000
As a very nice addition.

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,000
I have to remember that for the next time.

18
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:56,000
We are, we are, are the music creeps.

19
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Alright, there we go.

20
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Okay.

21
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,000
That was sufficiently unpleasant for everybody.

22
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,000
You know, I mean, if I wasn't such a dick, we'd just record it sometime.

23
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Or I'd separate it, but.

24
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,000
If we really cared, we'd make something that actually sounded good.

25
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,000
Yeah, but we don't.

26
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,000
So, yeah.

27
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,000
I've got a little story here I'd like to start off with if you don't care.

28
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Sure.

29
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Okay.

30
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,000
Billy Corgan, you know, Smashing Pumpkins.

31
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Pretty talented guy.

32
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Smart guy, obviously.

33
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:32,000
He once asked his hero, Tony Iommi, why Black Sabbath Volume 4 sounded so weird.

34
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,000
And I do agree with him.

35
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,000
It didn't really fit into the other ones with the sound.

36
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,000
I mean, it still had that sound, but there was something different about it.

37
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,000
It was odd.

38
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,000
It was kind of a peculiar album.

39
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,000
It did, it did okay, but.

40
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Yeah.

41
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:52,000
So, and apparently and perhaps unsurprisingly, the Metal Pioneer believed it was,

42
00:01:52,000 --> 00:02:02,000
came all down to the liberal availability of when he was recording the Sabbath 1972 album, was Drugs.

43
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000
Oh, okay.

44
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,000
I thought it was going to be some like equipment change or the way it was mixed, but.

45
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,000
No.

46
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,000
This makes more sense.

47
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Yeah, yeah, it does, but he said that the speaker boxes were filled with cocaine.

48
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,000
And they were delivered to the studio.

49
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Yeah.

50
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,000
And he said that the drug guy would show up once a day when they got rid of the,

51
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,000
when they snorted up all the stuff in the speaker boxes.

52
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,000
And the guy would come by every day like clockwork and give them the rest of their cocaine.

53
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,000
And their management was the one arranging all of this.

54
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:41,000
And he said that they were, that their availability of drugs on that particular album was insane.

55
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Oh, gosh.

56
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,000
Kind of like the Fleetwood Mac when they were recording Rumors.

57
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Yes, yeah, yeah.

58
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:52,000
And he said that that is probably why volume four sounds so weird, if you will.

59
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Yeah, yeah, people tend to think of cocaine as an 80s drug.

60
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,000
But I remember, what was it, Hard Day's Night by the Beatles?

61
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,000
What was that, 64, 65?

62
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,000
Something like that, yeah.

63
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000
There's one little bit that slipped past the sensors.

64
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000
John Lennon has a bottle of Coca-Cola.

65
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:14,000
And in one scene, he tips the bottle up to his nose, plugs one nostril and gives a sniff.

66
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
Oh, wow, I didn't know that.

67
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,000
So John Lennon was making a cocaine joke in 65.

68
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,000
That's a good point.

69
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:28,000
And that was during the hallucinogenics and all that stuff, yeah.

70
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Yeah, that was a little before acid.

71
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Yeah.

72
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,000
But, you know.

73
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,000
Well, it stands to reason.

74
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000
They've been using cocaine to help people have surgeries.

75
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,000
I mean, oral surgeries have always been with cocaine generally.

76
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,000
I mean, so that would make sense that people would know that this drug makes you feel pretty damn good

77
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,000
and would probably take advantage of it.

78
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Yeah, yeah.

79
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,000
And all sides in World War II supplied their soldiers with amphetamines.

80
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,000
They had to.

81
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,000
Yeah.

82
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Yeah, because it would make them faster, stronger, and also not know that they're dead.

83
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,000
Yeah.

84
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:11,000
So it was, let's see, the Americans were using like morphine sulfate.

85
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Yeah.

86
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000
No, not morphine sulfate.

87
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000
It was a different kind of amphetamine.

88
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,000
But the Germans invented methamphetamines.

89
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,000
And that's what the German soldiers had.

90
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,000
Yeah, I forgot.

91
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,000
What the hell was it that they had?

92
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,000
Yeah, it was a different type of amphetamine.

93
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,000
It was a little bit safer for you.

94
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,000
And it was a little bit of a painkiller more to.

95
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000
Yeah, appetite suppressants.

96
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Yeah, all that.

97
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,000
Yeah.

98
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:41,000
The Japanese had their own concoction that they gave to the guys that got in the mini-subs

99
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,000
and then had to live in this mini-sub for like three days.

100
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:50,000
And it killed a number of them, and the rest of them, it drove insane.

101
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,000
Wow.

102
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Because they couldn't sleep for three days.

103
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000
It just kept them awake.

104
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000
So they were never able to sleep, never able to dream.

105
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,000
So they lapsed into a psychosis from that.

106
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:07,000
And the whole Japanese miniature submarine idea was just a bust because of the amphetamines

107
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,000
they were giving the personnel.

108
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Yeah, anyhow, sorry, I got to write it out.

109
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Go ahead and keep going.

110
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:22,000
But yeah, when the American soldiers were overrunning positions formerly held by the

111
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000
German soldiers, they kept finding these little tiny pill bottles all over the place.

112
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000
And they're like, what the hell are these?

113
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:34,000
But that was what the amphetamines were distributed in, was little tiny round bottles.

114
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,000
And I've seen some examples of them in the museum.

115
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,000
Okay, cool.

116
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,000
It's interesting that we had the whole just say no to drugs.

117
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,000
I know.

118
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,000
And then we had a government that was drugging us so we'd be better killers.

119
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,000
And that's not even the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the government and drugs.

120
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,000
There are so many different subjects on this and I think a lot of people know.

121
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000
A lot of people don't know.

122
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,000
So anyhow.

123
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,000
All right.

124
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,000
It's fascinating though.

125
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,000
We had the top 10 rock songs.

126
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,000
We did the metal songs and I think we pulled it off pretty good.

127
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Yeah, top 10 rock solos.

128
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Yeah, rock solos, not songs, sorry.

129
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000
Anyhow, you want to go ahead with yours?

130
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Sure.

131
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,000
I've got some that might overlap into metal.

132
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000
I do too, but I considered it a rock song.

133
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,000
Yeah.

134
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,000
Yeah.

135
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Okay.

136
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,000
So this one was misunderstood by Dream Theater.

137
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
It's on six degrees of inner turbulence.

138
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Trying to locate that song in my head.

139
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Yeah.

140
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:38,000
It starts out really slow and soft and gentle.

141
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:43,000
But the solo at the end, it stands out to me.

142
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,000
John Petrucci is the guitar player.

143
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000
And he composed a solo.

144
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,000
And then he reversed it.

145
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,000
So it was playing backwards.

146
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:59,000
And then he learned to play along with the backwards version of his original solo.

147
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:06,000
So on the album you get his original solo in reverse and then him playing along with it.

148
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,000
That's insane.

149
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Yeah.

150
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,000
And it's crazy, but it really kind of works.

151
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,000
It really does.

152
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:21,000
And it ends where he goes through the solo and when it's time to resolve back into the bridge leading of the chorus,

153
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,000
it works really well.

154
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,000
He just slides right in.

155
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,000
It's like, oh, okay, this all makes sense now.

156
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Wow.

157
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,000
So I really like that.

158
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,000
That's the song I used to listen to over and over and over for the solo.

159
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:35,000
I'm going to have to listen to that.

160
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Yeah.

161
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,000
Okay, cool.

162
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,000
So.

163
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Number two, Watermelon in Easter Hay by Frank Zappa.

164
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,000
It's on one of the Joe's Garage albums.

165
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,000
That's going back way.

166
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Yeah.

167
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,000
This is like 1980.

168
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:55,000
The whole song is an instrumental guitar solo played by Frank Zappa.

169
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,000
And he's playing, I think, on a Telecaster.

170
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000
I think in the video I saw him play.

171
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Is he the Telecaster or Strat because it's got the single coil sound, but it is the most gorgeous, beautiful guitar playing.

172
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,000
And the song itself is beautiful.

173
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Okay.

174
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:19,000
And it's such a contrast to some of the other things Zappa does because Zappa isn't afraid to get really ugly and nasty in a lot of his songs.

175
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:24,000
But Watermelon in Easter Hay, I have no idea what the title means, but just beautiful.

176
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,000
It's Frank Zappa.

177
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Who knows?

178
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Yeah.

179
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,000
It was probably something he dreamed up.

180
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Probably.

181
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Probably.

182
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,000
Let's see.

183
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Next up I have the solo in Comfortably Numb.

184
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,000
That is a good one.

185
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,000
On Pink Floyd's The Wall.

186
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,000
That was David Gilmour.

187
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,000
We overlapped on that one.

188
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,000
Yeah.

189
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,000
I figured there'd be some overlap.

190
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,000
That one was a no-brainer, really.

191
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,000
Yeah.

192
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,000
And it just fits the song perfectly.

193
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,000
It fit the time perfectly.

194
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,000
It was just everything came together to make that such a classic solo.

195
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,000
Yeah.

196
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,000
That solo is just amazing.

197
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,000
Another one is The Wall.

198
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Yeah.

199
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,000
The solo in that is so good, but I prefer Comfortably Numb like you.

200
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Yeah.

201
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,000
All right.

202
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Number four, Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits.

203
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Oh my God.

204
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,000
That's a good one.

205
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,000
Mark Knopfler guitar.

206
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Yeah.

207
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Very underrated guitar.

208
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Just goes on and on and on and on.

209
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,000
And it's such a sweet, clear tone.

210
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,000
There's no overdrive.

211
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,000
There's no distortion.

212
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,000
There's very limited effect on it.

213
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,000
It's just the guitar sound.

214
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,000
So underrated.

215
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Yeah.

216
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,000
So underrated.

217
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Yeah.

218
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:32,000
He is so smooth and just... His fingers just is like effortless to him.

219
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,000
It's amazing.

220
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Wow.

221
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Very cool.

222
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,400
On a side note, that their song Money for Nothing where he has that real raspy guitar

223
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:40,400
sound in the beginning.

224
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:41,400
Oh, I love it.

225
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:42,400
Yeah.

226
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,640
He has yet to be able to reproduce that sound.

227
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:49,720
He said, I was able to get that sound in the studio on that day and I've never been able

228
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:50,720
to reproduce it.

229
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,720
That sound is so unique, clear.

230
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:52,720
Yeah.

231
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:57,440
The tone on that is just... So when they do it live, they usually just have the recording

232
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,960
of the studio because he can't figure out how to reproduce that tone.

233
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,200
On that song, I would suggest that.

234
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,440
On a lot of songs, I'd say no, go live.

235
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:06,560
But know that one right there?

236
00:10:06,560 --> 00:10:07,560
I would suggest it.

237
00:10:07,560 --> 00:10:08,560
Yeah.

238
00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:09,560
That's great.

239
00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:10,560
All right.

240
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:13,880
Number five, Purple Rain from the song.

241
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:14,880
Oh my God.

242
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,360
From Prince and Prince Rogers Nelson on guitar.

243
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,560
I can't believe I never even thought about it.

244
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:19,560
Yeah.

245
00:10:19,560 --> 00:10:20,560
Insane.

246
00:10:20,560 --> 00:10:23,280
Insane guitar solo.

247
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:28,120
It was for a lot of people, that was when they realized that, oh my God, this guy is

248
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:32,400
such a talented musician.

249
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,280
There was a solo on... I can't remember.

250
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:41,800
There was another song that had a guitar solo in it, but this one, Purple Rain, when the

251
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,320
rock stations got it, they're like, oh my God, we got to play this.

252
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,320
They had to leave it in.

253
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:51,280
Because it's a rock song, a rock solo, but they're like, we can't play Prince because

254
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,760
we're a rock and roll station.

255
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:53,960
They did.

256
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:54,960
They did.

257
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,000
And then the R&B stations are like, we're going to leave that solo in because that's

258
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,000
awesome.

259
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,000
They didn't care.

260
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,000
Well, you see, that's something else that went on too is they used to convince songs

261
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,560
down and take out most of the solo.

262
00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:09,960
That one they had to leave because the solo was so good.

263
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:10,960
Yeah.

264
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,520
There are a lot of songs where you'd be surprised at how the guitar solo sounds.

265
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:15,520
Here I Go Again.

266
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,520
Yeah.

267
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:20,320
That one, that solo there has been butchered so many times.

268
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:27,360
Sometimes they put in a really quick orchestra sounding, and then sometimes they put in like

269
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,360
a third of the solo.

270
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,360
And they change it.

271
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,000
It's really disgusting to me.

272
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,000
Yeah.

273
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,720
A lot of times they'll delete the solo and put in a few more choruses.

274
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:36,720
Yeah.

275
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:37,720
And it's just like that.

276
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,880
And people who know the difference are like me and going, fuck you guys.

277
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,280
Number six, Highway Star, Deep Purple.

278
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:46,280
That's a great one.

279
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,280
Richie Blackmore on guitar.

280
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,280
See, I got, well, now I'm going to.

281
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:51,280
Okay.

282
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,760
Highway Star was my second.

283
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,360
I got one that I think is even a little bit better than that.

284
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,360
Okay.

285
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:57,360
I mean.

286
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:02,000
I've heard a local band who is really talented play Highway Star live.

287
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,680
And he did a really, really good job on that solo.

288
00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:10,880
But there's something about the way Richie plays it that's just not, you can't imitate

289
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:11,880
it.

290
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:13,360
It's just got to be him.

291
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:14,360
Yeah.

292
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:20,960
He was so good at not only the rhythm and the structure of the song, but also the solos.

293
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:21,960
Yeah.

294
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,960
He was just like one of the rare people that could do both of them so well.

295
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,320
And I think a lot of times he didn't have to plan it out.

296
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,560
It was just, you know, stream of consciousness, consciousness kind of playing.

297
00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:33,560
Yeah.

298
00:12:33,560 --> 00:12:35,560
That's the best way to do it.

299
00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:36,560
I agree.

300
00:12:36,560 --> 00:12:38,080
All right.

301
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,720
Next up, number seven, I had Voodoo Child, Slight Return by Jimi Hendrix.

302
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,360
Jimi Hendrix, of course, the guitar player on that.

303
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,000
I think we went over on that one too.

304
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Yeah, we did.

305
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,000
Yep.

306
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,600
But that's kind of a classic.

307
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,440
That you just kind of got to include.

308
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,240
That whole thing is a solo almost.

309
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:57,240
Pretty much, yeah.

310
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:58,240
Just like, yeah.

311
00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,240
Yeah.

312
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,960
He gets to a mountain and chop it down with the edge of my hand.

313
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:03,960
Yeah.

314
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:08,720
I know that What's His Name wrote and Bob Dylan.

315
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:09,720
Yeah.

316
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,720
But that's one of those songs that nobody cares.

317
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,960
It's just kind of like Hurt, you know, when Johnny Cash did it.

318
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,960
It's like, we know there's another version, but this is the one.

319
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:20,960
Yeah.

320
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:21,960
Yeah.

321
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:22,960
Yeah.

322
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,200
All along the watchtower is also Dylan, but Hendrix version.

323
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:31,960
And then Manfred Mann's Earth Band did a couple of remakes of Bruce Dreenstein songs.

324
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:32,960
And they did it well.

325
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:40,560
Spirits in the Night and, oh gosh, Spirits in the Night was the second one.

326
00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:41,640
What was the other one?

327
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:49,400
I can't remember what the other one was, but Spirits in the Night gathered the most steam.

328
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,280
Wrapped Up Like a Douche, Another Runner in the Night, Blinded by the Light.

329
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,280
Blinded by the Light, yep.

330
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:54,280
That was the other one, yeah.

331
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,960
And they had another song called I Came for You, but I think they wrote that one.

332
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:57,960
Everybody thinks it says douche.

333
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:58,960
Yeah.

334
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,200
The original is Cut Loose Like a Douche.

335
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:02,200
Yeah.

336
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,120
And when Manfred Mann redid it, they just slurred the word douche.

337
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,120
Yeah.

338
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:08,120
So, anyway.

339
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,960
Yeah, and they did it very well.

340
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:14,000
I mean, I like it much better than Springsteen, but I'm not really that much of a Springsteen

341
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,000
fan, admittedly.

342
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,000
Yeah, not really.

343
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,000
No.

344
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:22,960
The one time it went to the Rock Hall of Fame, the second floor is a changing exhibit.

345
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,240
It's like every year they put a different...

346
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,240
Oh yeah.

347
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,240
That year it was Bruce Springsteen.

348
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:28,240
It's like, meh.

349
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:29,240
Oh well.

350
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:30,240
Yeah.

351
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,680
It was mildly interesting, but I'm just not a real fan of his music.

352
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:33,680
I wouldn't have went through it at all.

353
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:34,680
I've been like, that's okay.

354
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,000
I'll be better off going to the Burger Joint across the road.

355
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Yeah.

356
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,680
Okay, number eight.

357
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,560
Train Kept A-Rollin', Aerosmith.

358
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,000
Oh, that's a good one, yeah.

359
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,400
Steve Hunter playing the guitar.

360
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,440
Everyone thinks it was Joe Perry who played it.

361
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:48,440
No.

362
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,440
It was Steve Hunter.

363
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:50,440
Steve Hunter, yeah.

364
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,640
He just happened to be in the studio recording something else, and the producer came and

365
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,640
said, hey, you want to come play on an Aerosmith track?

366
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,600
So he just went in and knocked out Train Kept A-Rollin' just off the top of his head.

367
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,760
And also Mick Mars is on Aerosmith albums, inadvertently.

368
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,800
Marilyn Manson played guitar on a Nine Inch Nails album.

369
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,840
Wow, I didn't know that.

370
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,740
Mick Mars would not turn down his music.

371
00:15:15,740 --> 00:15:19,840
He was in there rehearsing at the same studios, and they kept asking him to turn it down.

372
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,600
He wouldn't turn it down, and they looked at each other and said, we'll just leave it

373
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,600
in.

374
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:24,600
Yeah.

375
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:25,600
So I'll have to look up his songs.

376
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,520
I'm going to do a report on it on the next music creation.

377
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,120
I thought that was cooler than hell.

378
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,880
They're just like, we like the way you played.

379
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,880
Let's just leave it in there.

380
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:40,920
The song Sweet Home Alabama, right when it starts, you hear somebody say, turn it up.

381
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:45,240
That was the, I think the singer was telling the engineer to turn up the volume in his

382
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,240
headphones.

383
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:47,240
Oh, and it just fits so well.

384
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,240
Yeah, so they left it in.

385
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,240
Yeah, people are going, yeah, listen to this song.

386
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,160
Turn it up.

387
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,400
So now that you know he was just selling, hey, I need more headphones.

388
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,480
It's funny to hear, it was like, turn it up.

389
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,640
And actually it's kind of said like that, although you don't think of it like that.

390
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,440
You think like he's like, turn it up.

391
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,080
It's because he said it in time with the music.

392
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,080
Yeah.

393
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,400
Instinctively as a singer, he said turn it up in time with the music, so it sounded like

394
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:13,720
it was just part of the song.

395
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:14,720
That's a good point.

396
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:15,720
Yeah.

397
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:16,720
Okay.

398
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:17,720
That was pretty cool.

399
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,440
All right, number nine, Limelight by Rush.

400
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:21,440
Oh.

401
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:22,440
Alex Lifes and so on.

402
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,240
What an underrated guitarist.

403
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:25,240
Very much so.

404
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:26,240
Oh.

405
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:33,040
An interesting thing about Alex Lifeson is he could only afford one good quality professional

406
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,940
grade guitar when they're starting out.

407
00:16:34,940 --> 00:16:40,040
So he bought a Gibson semi-hollow body ES335.

408
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,880
And that's what he played through 2112.

409
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,520
You think that's a Les Paul, it's not.

410
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,840
It's a hollow body guitar.

411
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,720
And the solo on Tom Sawyer, he plays on a hollow body.

412
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,960
In fact, most of the rhythm parts on Tom Sawyer are on a hollow body.

413
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:57,960
Wow.

414
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:02,360
And he has since made the transition to solid body Les Paul style of guitars.

415
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,200
In fact, he has a signature model out now.

416
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,200
Excellent.

417
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:12,560
But a lot of the rush you heard was what was basically designed as a jazz guitar.

418
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:13,560
Wow.

419
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,560
Yeah.

420
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:15,560
You wouldn't have guessed it.

421
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:16,560
No.

422
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,200
But he could only afford that one good guitar.

423
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,640
But there are times on tour where he'd rent one.

424
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,040
Yeah, he'd go get a Gibson.

425
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,040
But in the studio, he recorded almost everything on that one ES335.

426
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,040
Wow.

427
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:29,040
Yeah.

428
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,040
All right.

429
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,840
So that's my Alex Lifeson moment.

430
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:32,840
Okay.

431
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:33,840
I like it.

432
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:34,840
Yeah.

433
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:35,840
Great information.

434
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:36,840
It is.

435
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:37,840
All right.

436
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:38,840
Number 10 on my list.

437
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:39,840
Europa Santana.

438
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:40,840
Carlos Santana.

439
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:41,840
Oh yeah.

440
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:42,840
Carlos Santana.

441
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,120
If you've never heard Europa, go look it up and listen to it.

442
00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:46,400
Chances are you've heard it before.

443
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:47,400
You've heard it.

444
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,400
You know it.

445
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,400
Yeah.

446
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:50,840
It is so beautiful, so expressive.

447
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,440
It's a slow kind of meandering song.

448
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:59,960
It's classic Santana with all the feeling and the different directions and the...it's

449
00:17:59,960 --> 00:18:00,960
beautiful.

450
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:01,960
Yeah.

451
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:08,000
I mean, picture yourself sitting on a nice warm beach watching the relaxing waves come

452
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:09,000
in.

453
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,640
You've got the beverage of your choice and everything else.

454
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:12,640
That's it right there.

455
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:13,640
Yeah.

456
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,440
And listening to Europa, that would just make it so perfect.

457
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:17,440
It's that kind of song.

458
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:18,440
I would agree.

459
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:19,440
I would agree.

460
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:24,920
And that really helped put Santana in the consciousness of a lot of people who had dismissed

461
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,520
him as, you know, oh well it's just kind of ethnic music because he's got all those bongos

462
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:29,520
and congos in it.

463
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:30,520
Yeah, that's right.

464
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:31,520
Yeah.

465
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,080
But that really is like, oh hell, this guy is an excellent guitar player and he can write

466
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,280
hits, which he really can.

467
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,280
So that was my number 10.

468
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,280
Oh, good one.

469
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,280
Okay.

470
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:42,280
My number one...oh well, you know what?

471
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,120
Yeah, I'll do number one to number 10.

472
00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:47,080
But my mind weren't really in order.

473
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,080
There was just...

474
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,080
Yeah, me neither.

475
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,640
I could have took a bunch of these around.

476
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:57,480
Okay, my number one or whatever, the first one I have on my list is Jimi Hendrix all

477
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,040
along the Watchtower.

478
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,040
Oh yeah.

479
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,040
Yeah.

480
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:08,400
I mean, some of those notes that he hits, I guess, with the different ways of doing

481
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:13,680
his distortion and the tapping that he did and the picking.

482
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,360
A lot of times he didn't play with a lot of gain.

483
00:19:16,360 --> 00:19:23,280
It was more tone and a lot of the effects he was using were brand new, just being invented

484
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:28,040
and he was getting the advanced versions of them like fuzz and the delays.

485
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,800
It's like he was using them first, the wah pedal.

486
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,080
It's like, what the hell was that?

487
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:37,520
They'd listen to the Jimi Hendrix album and go, whoa, there's new guitar effects out.

488
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:38,960
And he was already the master of them.

489
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:39,960
Yeah.

490
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:44,640
The wah pedal was actually featured on all along the Watchtower, but it was done differently

491
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,640
than what most people use it as.

492
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:47,640
Not like Kirk Hammett.

493
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:48,640
No, no.

494
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:49,640
Metallica.

495
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:50,640
Kirk Hammett.

496
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:51,640
He can't play a solo without the wah pedal.

497
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,640
No, I know, and it sucks.

498
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,600
He is one of my most hated soloists.

499
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:57,600
He's horrible.

500
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,160
Yeah, I would really like to hear him learn to play without that wah.

501
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,160
I would too.

502
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,240
The thing is, he's really good at classical, actually.

503
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:09,000
I mean, you listen to those earlier albums like Ride the Lightning and Anjustice, he really

504
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,000
picks really well.

505
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,720
I mean, it's with electric, but no, it's picking.

506
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,760
He does that very well, but the solos, he doesn't have a clue.

507
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:17,760
Horrible.

508
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:23,200
So, my next one would be November Rain by G&R, Guzz or Roses.

509
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,960
That thing with the bridge is just like really very emotional.

510
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:33,200
You can tell that Axl Rose had a lot going on in his life, the divorce, all this stuff,

511
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,040
his sadness, his tragedies, his triumphs.

512
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,440
All of this is featured in that solo.

513
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:45,320
Yeah, I would put, emotionally, I would put that up on the same level as the real tear

514
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,880
jerker songs that will always hit you hard.

515
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:54,920
Just the emotion that's in it, all the instruments, all the vocals is just all completely on point.

516
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:55,920
Even the title.

517
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:56,920
Yeah, yeah.

518
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:03,520
I mean, the title is like, just like, I mean, it was, it's a wet blanket, it's horrible.

519
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,520
It's like November Rain, ugh.

520
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,240
All the trees are bare, it's raining, it's cold, and all you can do is sit out here,

521
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,840
look out your window and wish for better days.

522
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:12,840
Yeah.

523
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:17,320
That's the way that this song is arranged, composed, and done.

524
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,760
It is such a brilliant song.

525
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,040
I would put it up there with one of the most brilliant songs ever written.

526
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,040
Yeah.

527
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:30,520
I mean, I know any one of these other people that are like this, supposed to be experts

528
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,520
and be scoffing at it, that song is a masterpiece.

529
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,360
Yeah, I agree.

530
00:21:37,360 --> 00:21:38,800
It's really good writing.

531
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:39,800
Yeah.

532
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,480
And then, watch the video.

533
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:46,160
The video tells so much about the song that I almost say, if you're going to listen to

534
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,520
the song, watch the video with it.

535
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,360
Yeah, it really is like the soundtrack to the movie.

536
00:21:50,360 --> 00:21:54,600
Yeah, yeah, the Axl Rose movie up to that date, that was the soundtrack.

537
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,880
So, alright, next one, I'm going completely different.

538
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,920
This is Anger, Bulls on Parade.

539
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:02,920
Oh yeah.

540
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,880
By Rage against the Machine.

541
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:05,880
Tom Morello.

542
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,320
Tom Morello is so angry on that solo.

543
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:09,320
Yeah.

544
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,120
I mean, he's making Zac D'Aloroche look like Neil Diamond.

545
00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:14,120
Mr. Rogers.

546
00:22:14,120 --> 00:22:15,120
Yeah, Mr. Rogers.

547
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:16,120
Yeah, that's-

548
00:22:16,120 --> 00:22:20,400
Tom Morello fucking goes off on that thing.

549
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:26,560
And because of that, that solo fit and described the song, that's what a solo's about.

550
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:27,560
Yeah.

551
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,160
It's a song that describes a song inside the song.

552
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:35,360
Yeah, that's, I know it's kind of overplayed, but that's got to be my favorite Rage against

553
00:22:35,360 --> 00:22:36,360
the Machine song, Bulls on Parade.

554
00:22:36,360 --> 00:22:37,360
Oh, it's fucking awesome.

555
00:22:37,360 --> 00:22:40,440
Yeah, I mean, and just the riff.

556
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,120
It's got like three hooks in it.

557
00:22:42,120 --> 00:22:43,120
Yeah.

558
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:44,120
It's amazing.

559
00:22:44,120 --> 00:22:45,120
It is.

560
00:22:45,120 --> 00:22:47,480
That riff makes you want to punch someone in the face for no reason.

561
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,080
It's like, ugh!

562
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,080
It's fucking awesome.

563
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,080
Bulls on Parade, yeah.

564
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,080
Excellent solo.

565
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,080
Yeah.

566
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:56,680
Yeah, it's great stuff.

567
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,360
My next one would be Deep Purple, my Deep Purple song.

568
00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:01,840
My one star is just as good.

569
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,840
I chose Lazy.

570
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,880
Oh, yeah.

571
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,840
That is just such a, I don't know, a finger snapper.

572
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:11,840
Yeah.

573
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,760
And the song's in a straight eight shuffle.

574
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:16,760
Yeah.

575
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,440
So that lends itself to kind of a swingy, moving kind of-

576
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,240
Boogie-woogie type of a deal.

577
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:23,920
But actually, it isn't.

578
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,800
It isn't boogie-woogie, but it kind of, yeah.

579
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,680
No, it's kind of got that flavor.

580
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,560
It's more swagger than boogie-woogie.

581
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,960
Yeah, it's swag, and it's like, nothing to see here.

582
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:34,560
Just hanging out at the bench.

583
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:35,560
Tom Catten.

584
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,560
Lazy Tom Catten.

585
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:39,560
Rawr, Tom Catten.

586
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:40,760
Yeah, it's-

587
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:45,120
I was thinking about the solo from Burn, but I couldn't remember it right off the bat.

588
00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:46,120
Burn is a great solo.

589
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:47,120
Burn is another good solo.

590
00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:49,040
That could have went in there too, yeah.

591
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,560
That's another one I've heard a local band do live, and they did an excellent, excellent

592
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:53,560
version of Burn.

593
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,600
Boy, that's one of those songs, if you do live, you're going to get everybody's attention.

594
00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:58,600
Yeah.

595
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,520
Everyone's going to drop their beer and go, what the fuck?

596
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:01,520
Hang on.

597
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:07,800
This was a band called The Only Look Dead, and that was one of the songs that was requested

598
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:08,800
over and over.

599
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,120
It was Burn and Whipping Post.

600
00:24:11,120 --> 00:24:12,120
Yeah.

601
00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:14,080
Burn was particularly an interesting song.

602
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,040
Whipping Post would be great too.

603
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,640
Because all the members that left Deep Purple, they're like, there's no way they can replace

604
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:23,640
Ian Gillan.

605
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,840
That was like a factory of excellent musicians.

606
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:26,840
Yeah.

607
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,520
They're going to have a way they're going to... Rainbow the same.

608
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:29,520
Yeah.

609
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,280
That was Richie Blackmore and his excellence, his perfectionist, the man with perfectionist.

610
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,480
Although he is a huge Ozzy fan.

611
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:36,480
Interesting.

612
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,480
It is interesting.

613
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,960
But okay.

614
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,200
They called him dead.

615
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,200
No way you're replacing Roger Glover.

616
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,400
No way you're replacing Ian Gillan.

617
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:48,880
And he did.

618
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:49,880
Yeah.

619
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,440
And that song hit so big, it tore up everything.

620
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:53,440
Yeah.

621
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:59,240
And even the stuff, I can even go a step further, Stormbringer that had a... What's his name

622
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:00,240
on it?

623
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:01,240
The guy that's dead.

624
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:02,240
He died.

625
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:03,240
Mark Bowling?

626
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:04,240
No, Tommy Bowling.

627
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,240
Oh, okay.

628
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:06,240
Mark Bowling, his brother.

629
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:07,240
Yeah.

630
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,480
Tommy Bowling, still catchy as hell and good.

631
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,080
But it didn't do so well.

632
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,920
Richie Blackmore went to form Rainbow.

633
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:12,920
Yeah.

634
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,160
Then later on they got back in 1984 and did the Perfect Strangers.

635
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:17,160
Oh, I like that one.

636
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,680
Which burned up the airwaves like nothing.

637
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,440
So all right.

638
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:27,200
My next one would be Cream, Sunshine of Your Love.

639
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,620
Yeah.

640
00:25:28,620 --> 00:25:31,000
That exemplifies Eric Clapton and his wah-wah.

641
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,000
He does wah-wah.

642
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,840
Yeah, and kind of a hooting fuzz too.

643
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:35,840
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

644
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:36,840
He does that.

645
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:41,520
That far away sound.

646
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,920
That again is a song inside a song.

647
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:45,920
It's just fucking amazing.

648
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:46,920
Yeah.

649
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:51,800
I mean, that is a guitar player's dream right there.

650
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,000
An average person listening to it would just be like, oh, okay.

651
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:01,360
But someone that actually kind of knows music would be like, fuck.

652
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:03,760
It exemplified Clapton at that era.

653
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:04,760
Yeah.

654
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,640
Because later on he went on and he did other stuff.

655
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:12,600
I mean, anything from Tears in Heaven to the one he wrote about, not Layla, but the other

656
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,400
one he wrote about, George Harrison's wife who became his wife.

657
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:16,400
Oh, Wonderful Tonight.

658
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,960
Wonderful Tonight, yeah.

659
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,160
He went into stuff like that and sang so beautifully.

660
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,160
Yeah.

661
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:28,960
I think back in the Layla and White Room and Badge kind of days.

662
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:29,960
White Room is a good one.

663
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,480
And Badge is one of my underrated songs of all time.

664
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,800
Back then he was doing a lot more drugs with a lot more abandon.

665
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:37,800
Yeah.

666
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,800
So he was just, he was being pretty raw and wild.

667
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:40,800
He was on a psychedelic trip.

668
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:41,800
Yeah.

669
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:42,800
It was just like.

670
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,200
And the music biz was such at the time that that was good.

671
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,200
That was it.

672
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:48,200
Yeah.

673
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,840
And then do what Eric Clapton does.

674
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,480
And then in the 70s they went more for perfection and uniformity.

675
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:57,240
In the 80s it got to be, you know, here's the sound.

676
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:01,000
I like the way he admitted that he wanted the Yard Roots to fail after he left.

677
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,000
He admitted it.

678
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:06,920
He goes, yeah, he goes, I wanted to fail so bad, but they said they went on and did great

679
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,760
things and you know, Led Zeppelin was birthed out of it.

680
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,560
He's like, fuck, what do I do?

681
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,760
You know, he was actually laughing about it.

682
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,120
He thought it was funny because his mindset at the time was like, fuck those guys.

683
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:21,560
And then he's like, okay, they did not go away.

684
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:28,320
So all right, next one, Rod Stewart, Jeff Beck, of course.

685
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:29,320
Hot Legs.

686
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,360
Oh yeah.

687
00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:39,240
That has so many subdued little sounds and little stuff in it.

688
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,540
What would you call that type of a?

689
00:27:42,540 --> 00:27:45,000
It's like everything he's playing is feel.

690
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,200
Feel.

691
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,240
It's like his personal style and feel.

692
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:54,040
It's like when Brian May did the intro to Fat Bottom Girls.

693
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,040
Yeah.

694
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,040
You heard the long intro.

695
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,040
That's what should have come on in your entry.

696
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:00,040
Yeah.

697
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:05,640
But everything he's playing is just, you know, straight from his brain that nobody else can

698
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:06,640
really replicate.

699
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:07,640
Yeah.

700
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:15,600
I mean, from the riff to the bridge to the solo, I mean, that song is just so catchy.

701
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,920
Anybody in any genre of music would like it.

702
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,160
They go, man, that's pretty cool.

703
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,160
Yeah.

704
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:25,920
Ironically, this is in the category for me of really good guitar solos in songs that

705
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,840
I don't really care for.

706
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:32,480
Because if Hot Legs came on, I wouldn't necessarily listen to it except just for the solo.

707
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:33,480
Yeah.

708
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:34,480
No, that's me too.

709
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:35,480
Yeah.

710
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,880
The guitar is what gets me on it and not just the solo, the whole thing.

711
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,880
That exemplified Jeff Beck and how he didn't have to do what everyone else did because

712
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,840
he had his own thing.

713
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,060
There you go.

714
00:28:47,060 --> 00:28:51,920
My next one, you already covered, but I agree with it 100%, Pink Floyd, Comfortably Numb.

715
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,600
I mean, what can you say?

716
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:58,080
That's like one of the most perfect solos ever done for a song that needed that.

717
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,000
And the way the band builds up behind him is perfect.

718
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,000
That's a great way.

719
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:07,240
Because by the end, they're all just back there smashing cymbals and drums and pounding

720
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:08,240
on the bass.

721
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:09,240
Yeah, it's beautiful.

722
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:10,240
Yeah.

723
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,680
It is orchestrated beautifully.

724
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,760
So yeah, the next one is Ozzy Osbourne, but it's Jakey Lee.

725
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:18,760
Okay.

726
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:19,760
Killer of Giants.

727
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:20,760
Yes.

728
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,680
I don't think I'm familiar with that one.

729
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,520
When you get a chance, listen to it.

730
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:29,240
He starts out acoustic and then he goes into, the song never does go into the crunch or

731
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:30,240
nothing.

732
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:31,240
Yeah.

733
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:32,480
The song is fairly laid back.

734
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,080
But when you go to the solo, it is such a song inside the song.

735
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,000
It's like you could have taken it out and made another song.

736
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,000
Yeah.

737
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,000
It's really good.

738
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,000
Cool.

739
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,520
I've always had the utmost respect for Jakey Lee's playing.

740
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:51,440
He is like an unsung hero in Ozzy or anything else.

741
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:56,240
Technically and precisely, that guy was one of the best that's ever been around.

742
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:01,880
I mean, his insightfulness on these chords that he played in different progressions and

743
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,600
how he would pick them and make them be the song instead of progressing with another chord.

744
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:07,600
Yeah.

745
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:13,600
I dare anyone to just read the music if you can or listen to someone explaining the music

746
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,440
and they can tell you what this guy is doing.

747
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:17,440
Yeah.

748
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:18,440
Yeah.

749
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,680
There are a lot of places where a musician can get to a certain point.

750
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,800
It's like, okay, I can go this way or that way and both of them are pretty standard.

751
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:26,800
Yeah.

752
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,440
Jakey Lee goes, oh, how about this way?

753
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:29,440
Yeah.

754
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:30,440
Yeah.

755
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:31,440
He's one of those guys.

756
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,120
And that's one of those ones like Richie Blackmore.

757
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:34,120
Uh-huh.

758
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,120
Everybody thinks smoke on the water is one way.

759
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,120
Yeah.

760
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,000
It's like it's slightly different, but it's different enough to where you know that he's

761
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,800
the one that did it and nobody else did.

762
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,640
That's similar with Jakey Lee on this song.

763
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:45,640
Yeah.

764
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:46,640
Is that.

765
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,240
You know it's him because of the way it was done.

766
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,240
Yeah.

767
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,480
Some guitar players you recognize for their tone.

768
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:52,480
Yeah.

769
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,640
Others you recognize for what they played, what they choose not to play.

770
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:56,640
What's in their head.

771
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:57,640
Yeah.

772
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:58,640
Yeah.

773
00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,640
Yes.

774
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:00,640
Yep.

775
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,040
And that goes along with the greatest music ever.

776
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,440
It's a lot of what you left out.

777
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:04,440
Yeah.

778
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:05,440
And not what you put in.

779
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,440
So.

780
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,480
I mean a perfect example is Vinnie Vincent to Richie Blackmore.

781
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:10,480
Uh-huh.

782
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:11,480
I would be.

783
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:12,480
I had no doubt.

784
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:13,480
Yeah.

785
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:14,480
Yeah.

786
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:15,480
So all right.

787
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:16,480
Um.

788
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:17,800
Next one is Jimi Hendrix, Voodoo Child.

789
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,360
We already went into that, but I mean that thing is just.

790
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,360
The whole thing's a solo.

791
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:26,760
And it's also important to remember that at the time nobody was doing anything like that.

792
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:27,760
It was so new.

793
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:28,760
No.

794
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:29,760
No, you're right.

795
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:30,760
It was.

796
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:31,760
People were turning their heads going what?

797
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:32,760
Yeah.

798
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,800
And a lot of people was like what the hell instrument is that?

799
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,400
They couldn't even recognize it as a guitar.

800
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:38,400
No, they thought it was synthesizer.

801
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:39,400
Yeah.

802
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:40,400
A lot of people thought it was synthesizer.

803
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:41,400
It was not.

804
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:42,400
Yeah.

805
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,560
I mean it was Jimi Hendrix with some of the newest stuff around and also some of the oldest

806
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:47,560
tricks in the book.

807
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:48,560
Yeah.

808
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:49,560
A little bit of everything.

809
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:50,560
So.

810
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:55,640
Then finally there's another Ozzy Osbourne song, but this will be with the late great

811
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:56,640
Randy Rhoades.

812
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:57,640
Mm-hmm.

813
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:58,640
Goodbye to Romance.

814
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,480
Oh, that's another one I'll have to listen to.

815
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,720
That is really, really good.

816
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:04,720
Um.

817
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:11,480
The solo on it is a song within a song, but it's like the perfect song and the only song

818
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,360
that could go along with that song.

819
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:14,360
Yeah.

820
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:15,360
So.

821
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:19,560
Well, I thought of an honorable mention once while you were doing yours.

822
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:20,760
Okay.

823
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,240
The song is Bad Out of Hell by Meat Loaf.

824
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,880
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

825
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:31,200
Todd Rundon plays the guitar solo and he made his guitar sound like a motorcycle revving

826
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:37,480
up and then driving off and then he seamlessly transitions into the guitar solo, which is

827
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:38,800
a pretty awesome guitar solo.

828
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:39,800
Mm-hmm.

829
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,680
But it uses the exact same tone.

830
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,720
You know how many people don't know there's Todd Rundgren playing that?

831
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:50,320
I mean, it's a large, I would say more people don't know that Todd Rundgren actually played

832
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:51,680
the solo on that.

833
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,120
And do you know who the drummer was all over that album?

834
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,800
Um, I do, but I can't think of his name.

835
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:57,800
Max Weinberg.

836
00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:58,800
Yeah.

837
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,000
From Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band.

838
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:05,720
He also was on one of the late night talk shows in the studio band.

839
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:06,720
Yeah.

840
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:07,720
Max Weinberg.

841
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:08,720
Yeah, that's right.

842
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:09,720
Yep.

843
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,040
That was the drummer all over Bad Out of Hell.

844
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,520
You're talking about one of the greatest compositions ever written in rock history.

845
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:15,520
Oh, yeah.

846
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:21,120
And like I said, I was making fun of this, but I was talking to Rob on the douchebag

847
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,920
saying about how Jelly Roll is in New Meat Loaf.

848
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:25,920
Yeah.

849
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:31,160
They're both, look, no disrespect to either one of them.

850
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,920
They're both big fat, greasy bitches, but nobody cares.

851
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,600
They have so much swag that it overrides anything.

852
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:38,600
Yeah.

853
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,120
That was the image of Meat Loaf.

854
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,720
It was like that voice out of that guy.

855
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:49,080
Yes, but the women went nuts over him because his swag.

856
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:50,080
His charisma.

857
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,080
His charisma.

858
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:52,080
Yeah.

859
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,360
I mean, everybody was like, look, the guy is highly overweight, but look at him.

860
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:56,360
He's fucking awesome.

861
00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:00,040
He would turn around and everyone would look at him.

862
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,040
Yep.

863
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:02,720
And same way with Jelly Roll, he has that same swag.

864
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,320
He has that same charisma, and that is one of the things that makes him the it, just

865
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:08,960
like it did Meat Loaf.

866
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:13,200
And it shows you like sometimes, man, we're not even talking dad bod.

867
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,000
We're talking about fucking sweating ham chunks on top of the gym.

868
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,000
They don't care.

869
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,000
Yeah, like Pawn Stars bod.

870
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,000
Yeah, yes.

871
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,000
Chumbly bod.

872
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:26,000
Yeah, and this is the highest compliment that I can give a person.

873
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,000
I'm not making fun of him.

874
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,000
I'm overweight.

875
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,000
Not making fun of him.

876
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,000
No, me too.

877
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:34,080
I'm telling you, man, I'm illustrating probably a little bit through the absurd yes.

878
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,840
They're not sweating ham chunks on him, no.

879
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,920
But I think I'm trying to get the point across.

880
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,960
They were, they're beautiful at what they do.

881
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,440
They're the best at what they do.

882
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:45,440
Yeah.

883
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:53,920
And it kind of shows that if you get past the physical and visual and look at the person.

884
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,440
Women are able to do that a lot better than men.

885
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:57,440
Yeah.

886
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:01,720
There's a certain subset of people that are all over social media that are all about image

887
00:35:01,720 --> 00:35:02,720
and appearance.

888
00:35:02,720 --> 00:35:03,720
Yeah.

889
00:35:03,720 --> 00:35:07,560
And if you're like three ounces overweight, you're a loser.

890
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,260
Those are the people who miss out.

891
00:35:09,260 --> 00:35:11,240
They miss out on so much.

892
00:35:11,240 --> 00:35:15,840
Because when you're so judgmental and close yourself off from so much, there's so much

893
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:16,840
you miss out on.

894
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:17,840
Yeah.

895
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:18,840
It's nuts.

896
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:19,840
Yeah.

897
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,360
I mean, you'd never think someone like Jenny, Jelly Roll was a panty dropper.

898
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:23,360
Yes, he is.

899
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:24,360
Yeah.

900
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:25,360
Yep.

901
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:26,360
So is Meat Loaf.

902
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:27,360
Yeah.

903
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,360
God bless his soul.

904
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:29,360
Hello.

905
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:30,360
Hey, did you see Mrs. Golf and Steen walk by earlier?

906
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:31,360
Yes, I did earlier.

907
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:32,360
Yeah, I was worried about her.

908
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:33,360
She's got a new look.

909
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:34,360
Yeah.

910
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:35,360
Yeah.

911
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,120
So that's nice that she's still around.

912
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,160
She's jazzing it up just a little bit with the bright colors.

913
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,120
She wasn't yelling at any walls or slamming any chairs.

914
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:44,120
No, no, no.

915
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:45,120
She's not mad at the wall anymore.

916
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:46,120
Yeah.

917
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:47,960
Her and the wall made amends.

918
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,200
And I was going to mention it, but we got onto something else.

919
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:51,200
Yeah.

920
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:52,960
Yeah, Mrs. Golf and Steen is alive and well.

921
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:53,960
That makes me happy.

922
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:54,960
Me too.

923
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,200
Because God bless her crazy soul.

924
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,200
She's awesome.

925
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,920
See, she added so much flavor to our podcast.

926
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:03,920
Yeah.

927
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:04,920
Running by screaming.

928
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:08,040
You know, it's probably because it's getting colder.

929
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:09,040
It is, yeah.

930
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:10,040
So she's inside now.

931
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:11,040
She's a little warmer.

932
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:12,040
She doesn't come in here all that much.

933
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:13,040
You know what she thought?

934
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,040
Oh, fuck.

935
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,040
It's those guys again.

936
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:16,040
Damn it.

937
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,000
I'm just going to walk by real quick and hopefully they don't see me.

938
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:19,000
She's probably thinking podcasters.

939
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,000
Oh, there goes the neighborhood.

940
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,000
Yeah.

941
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:22,000
They're ruining it for us homeless people.

942
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,000
How can it just be a nice bunch of homeless people?

943
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,520
No, it's got to be these morons.

944
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:28,520
Yeah.

945
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:29,520
All right.

946
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,080
That is my 10.

947
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,800
You said you had some stuff that you wrote down and you come up with.

948
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:36,800
So let's hear it.

949
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:37,800
Yeah.

950
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:45,920
So it says, how much choreography do you like in a live performance?

951
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,400
Okay.

952
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,960
Let me think of how to describe this.

953
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,160
I don't want so much as distraction.

954
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:55,200
Yeah.

955
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,580
I want it to complement the music.

956
00:36:57,580 --> 00:36:58,580
So Kiss.

957
00:36:58,580 --> 00:36:59,580
Yeah.

958
00:36:59,580 --> 00:37:02,200
Kiss did a great Alice Cooper.

959
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,840
Motley Crue used to do a great job of it.

960
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,200
It has to complement the music.

961
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,640
It cannot take over the music.

962
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:09,640
Yeah.

963
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,560
Woss just did a great job of it.

964
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,000
Yeah.

965
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:18,880
There's bands that can pull it off because they know what they need to do with the choreography.

966
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:22,200
And there's bands that cannot because they need it as a crutch.

967
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:23,200
Yeah.

968
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,080
So I can only describe it like this.

969
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,840
If it takes over the music or challenges the music, they miss the point.

970
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:30,840
Yeah.

971
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:36,120
That's kind of how I'm leaning is, you know, have the lights synchronized, have the special

972
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:43,680
effects synchronized, have like the rear projection screen, all that stuff is fine.

973
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:49,420
If you start getting into wild sound effects not produced by the people on stage, I'm not

974
00:37:49,420 --> 00:37:50,420
so much of a fan.

975
00:37:50,420 --> 00:37:51,420
You've lost it.

976
00:37:51,420 --> 00:37:53,640
To me it's not a live experience anymore.

977
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,960
It's more of a, I don't know, an event.

978
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,560
I mean, now I know Kiss, Alice Cooper, all that were events.

979
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:03,560
Yes.

980
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:07,520
I'm talking about the event being the event and not the actual music being the event.

981
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:08,520
Yeah.

982
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:13,000
Because here is Alice Cooper and all of a sudden billion dollar babies come on.

983
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,000
The pop is crazy.

984
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,720
All of a sudden everyone's like, yeah.

985
00:38:15,720 --> 00:38:19,560
Well, that's because the show didn't override the music.

986
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:20,560
Yeah.

987
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:29,240
Here's the breaking point for me on a lot of stuff comparing like 70s and 80s to now.

988
00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:33,120
If there are more than two people on stage that aren't playing instruments and they're

989
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:34,120
just dancing, I'm out.

990
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:35,120
Oh, yes.

991
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,120
You know what?

992
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:37,120
Me too.

993
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,120
Me too.

994
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:39,120
Two I can handle.

995
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:40,600
The most I'll go is the backup dancers.

996
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:45,000
I forgot what they did on Motley Crue even though I don't even want to see them anymore.

997
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,800
But back in the day I think they're the Nasty Habits, they called them.

998
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:48,800
I think so, yeah.

999
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:49,800
Yeah.

1000
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,520
And they each had their own nasty name.

1001
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,120
But anyhow, that was perfect.

1002
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:56,240
Yeah, if they're backup singers they're contributing to the music.

1003
00:38:56,240 --> 00:39:00,800
But there's some acts you go on stage and there's just like a dozen people that all

1004
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:05,280
they're doing is dancing to a routine they've memorized.

1005
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:06,280
I don't think the singers...

1006
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:07,280
I don't like that.

1007
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,960
I don't think they sang anything but at least they portrayed singers so you're right.

1008
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,600
No, I agree.

1009
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,680
You got people on stage with no purpose.

1010
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:15,680
No.

1011
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:17,840
Yeah, see you and I put the music first.

1012
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:18,840
Yes.

1013
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:24,040
It's like this is a musical performance and anything visual needs to enhance the music.

1014
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,800
But it's gotten to be physical overrides the music.

1015
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,720
In fact, the visual is more important than the music.

1016
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:32,880
To me, it irritates the fuck out of me when it takes over the music.

1017
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,440
It's like I don't even want to see this anymore.

1018
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:36,440
Yeah.

1019
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,440
So, yeah.

1020
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,360
And a lot of shows have too much distraction on stage.

1021
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:47,280
Like every five seconds there's lights going crazy or confetti blasting out or fog or

1022
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:54,680
something or someone leaps in from off stage or just every five, 10 seconds there's some

1023
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:55,680
wild distraction.

1024
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:56,680
I don't need that.

1025
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:57,680
And also...

1026
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:58,680
The music is enough for me.

1027
00:39:58,680 --> 00:39:59,680
Me too.

1028
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,960
And also, an artist needs no one to grow up with the people.

1029
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:04,960
Yeah.

1030
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:05,960
Yeah.

1031
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:06,960
So...

1032
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,440
That's something that Madonna didn't figure out.

1033
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:09,440
No.

1034
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,040
She's still trying to be that 80s girl and...

1035
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:13,040
It's not working.

1036
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:18,800
And there's a few of her diehard fans that still love her and love on her on social media,

1037
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,240
but they don't buy enough music.

1038
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:21,960
Far and large, they're cringy.

1039
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:22,960
They're cringy.

1040
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:23,960
Yeah.

1041
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:30,440
And she can't make money on just the very few people who want her to stay the way she

1042
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,000
was when they were kids.

1043
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,000
No.

1044
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,000
I know.

1045
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:40,400
And also, the people that are doing that, let's face it, they're not regular society.

1046
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:45,360
I see that all the time on reactions to things that's like, oh, I don't care that Vince Neal

1047
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:46,920
is fat and can't sing.

1048
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,720
He's Vince Neal and I remember him in the 80s.

1049
00:40:49,720 --> 00:40:54,680
Well, they're going to the show to relive a memory.

1050
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,960
I would go to the show because I want to hear what he can do now.

1051
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:02,800
So that's the different philosophy is they're going to relive the childhood.

1052
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:07,120
I'm going because I want to hear if he's still good and what he can do.

1053
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,120
So it's a different approach to it.

1054
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:10,120
Okay.

1055
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:14,600
If I want to relive my childhood, I'll go play the album.

1056
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:19,160
I'm not going to go to an Alice Cooper concert and pretend he can still do everything he

1057
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:20,160
could in 72.

1058
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,160
Yeah, I agree.

1059
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:30,240
Anyway, I wanted to talk about the Primus auditions because long time drummer Tim Herb

1060
00:41:30,240 --> 00:41:33,720
Alexander quit Primus for the second time.

1061
00:41:33,720 --> 00:41:38,520
He left a while back and then came back and then here recently he said, you know, this

1062
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,840
isn't what I want for my life anymore.

1063
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,480
I just don't want to do this.

1064
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:49,000
For me to be a healthy person living a good life, I need to step away from this and I'm

1065
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,000
just done.

1066
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,600
I haven't really been keeping up with Primus and that didn't show up on my feed.

1067
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:54,600
So I had no idea.

1068
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:55,600
Okay.

1069
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,160
So a lot of people are sending in audition tapes.

1070
00:41:58,160 --> 00:41:59,160
Okay.

1071
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:04,040
And my friend, Sean Sharp from the Mushroom Brotherhood, he's going to audition for Primus

1072
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:05,040
as well.

1073
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,080
I hope he gets it because then I will know the drummer for Primus.

1074
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:09,080
Yeah.

1075
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,280
But maybe you'll get to meet Claypool.

1076
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,400
Yeah, that'd be nice.

1077
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:22,600
But I've been watching some of these audition videos and just about everybody I've seen

1078
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:27,320
is trying to imitate the previous drummer.

1079
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:32,400
And it's to the point where Les Claypool put out a statement saying, look, we're not looking

1080
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,160
for a clone.

1081
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,440
Bring what you have to the table.

1082
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:41,560
That's why Jakey Lee got hired instead of all these other ones that sounded just like

1083
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:42,560
Randy Rhoades.

1084
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:43,560
Yeah.

1085
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:44,560
And they wanted another Randy Rhoades.

1086
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:49,520
That had been done and he was no longer with us and they wanted to move on.

1087
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:50,520
Yeah.

1088
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:51,520
Yeah.

1089
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:55,880
I mean, for some bands, they do want a direct replacement, but Primus is like, no, we're

1090
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,200
ready for somebody who's got fresh ideas and a different way of playing.

1091
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,000
And this was Steely Dan.

1092
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,000
They'd want a replacement.

1093
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:03,000
Yeah.

1094
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:04,600
And Journey wanted a direct replacement.

1095
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:05,600
Yes.

1096
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,720
And for obvious reasons because, you know, the sound.

1097
00:43:08,720 --> 00:43:10,440
Bad boys.

1098
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:11,440
Yeah.

1099
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,440
So yeah, they didn't want a clone and I get it.

1100
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:15,440
They're Primus.

1101
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,680
They're just like, bring something else out.

1102
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:22,920
And being a three piece band, every member is super important because you're carrying,

1103
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,920
you know, apart from the vocals, you're carrying a third of the music.

1104
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,760
So you got to have something interesting to say all the time.

1105
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:29,760
Yeah.

1106
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:30,760
Let's face it.

1107
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,320
They're not worried about their sound per se at this point.

1108
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:37,000
They're just worried about another chapter in their careers and they just don't want

1109
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:38,800
somebody that sounds just like him.

1110
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:39,800
Yeah.

1111
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:46,640
I remember another example back in seventy five, I think, at the height of Elton John's

1112
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:47,640
fame.

1113
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:48,640
Excuse me.

1114
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,920
He busted up his band.

1115
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,840
He fired the bass player, the drummer.

1116
00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:03,080
And the bass player he got was different, but the drummer sounded just like the one

1117
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:06,200
he fired.

1118
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:11,160
And eventually he fired that guy and got a different guy and he sounded just like the

1119
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,480
drummer that was fired, Nigel Olsen.

1120
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,760
And eventually he hired Nigel Olsen back.

1121
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:25,080
Well, coincidentally, his brother Elton Dan took on all the rest of the band.

1122
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,560
Elton Dan is that tribute band.

1123
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,560
Melton John.

1124
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:32,560
Molton John.

1125
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:33,560
He's like plucking his feathers.

1126
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:34,560
Yeah.

1127
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:43,440
The other day I was watching a music video from the Edgar Winter group and the song Frankenstein.

1128
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:44,440
I remember them.

1129
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:45,440
Yeah.

1130
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:46,440
I remember that song.

1131
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:52,320
It's an instrumental and it was a live performance and Edgar Winter starts out with a keyboard

1132
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,200
that he's wearing around his neck.

1133
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:56,200
And then he.

1134
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:57,200
I used to love the keytar.

1135
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:58,200
Yeah.

1136
00:44:58,200 --> 00:44:59,200
Everybody hated it but me.

1137
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:00,200
I was like, hey, right on.

1138
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:08,240
And then he picked out a saxophone and then he went over and played the drums too along

1139
00:45:08,240 --> 00:45:10,000
with the other drummer.

1140
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:17,800
But the thing that struck right off the bat was you've seen Eddie Van Halen doing his

1141
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,320
two handed finger tapping arpeggio.

1142
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:22,920
Yeah, when he quit turning around to the amp.

1143
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:23,920
Yeah.

1144
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:24,920
Yes.

1145
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:25,920
Yeah.

1146
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,440
This was a song from 72 or 73.

1147
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,080
And Edgar Winter was doing that on the keyboard.

1148
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:33,080
Wow.

1149
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:34,480
Finger tapping on a keyboard.

1150
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,240
Two handed finger tapping on the piano keys.

1151
00:45:37,240 --> 00:45:40,720
And it sounded just like Van Halen.

1152
00:45:40,720 --> 00:45:46,040
So there's a full four, five years before Van Halen's first album came out in what,

1153
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:47,040
77 or 78?

1154
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:52,080
Well, there's such an argument going on whether Randy Rhoades started finger tapping or Eddie

1155
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:53,080
Van Halen.

1156
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:54,080
I don't think either one of them started.

1157
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:55,080
Or Alan Holdsworth.

1158
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:56,080
Yeah.

1159
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,680
Alan Holdsworth would have actually probably been the correct one.

1160
00:45:58,680 --> 00:45:59,680
Yeah.

1161
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:02,960
But they're talking about Ace Frehley doing the guitar pick tapping, which led to the

1162
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:04,640
finger tapping because it was easier.

1163
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:05,880
I remember seeing guitar pick tapping.

1164
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,280
But I was so stunned.

1165
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,960
Here's Edgar Winter, 1972.

1166
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:14,000
And he's over there up and down the keyboard with both hands.

1167
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,200
It was like, son of a gun.

1168
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,400
That would be something that someone would look at and go, yeah.

1169
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,360
I thought that was so cool.

1170
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:26,360
But no, I think it was done a long time ago because I think some bluegrass has finger

1171
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:27,360
tapping.

1172
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:28,360
Yeah.

1173
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:29,360
Yeah.

1174
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,400
I'm pretty sure some bluegrass music does have finger tapping.

1175
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:33,400
Why not?

1176
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,120
I mean, people experiment all the time.

1177
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:36,800
You know people have come up with all this stuff.

1178
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,080
I refuse to believe that these two people were the first ones to ever figure it out.

1179
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:41,080
They popularized it.

1180
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,080
Yeah, they popularized it.

1181
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,080
That's what they say.

1182
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,080
Yeah.

1183
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,880
It's just like that email I got that said, anybody can finger tap?

1184
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:48,880
Yeah, that's true.

1185
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,160
But not everybody can make it sound good.

1186
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:52,160
That's the main thing.

1187
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:53,160
Yeah.

1188
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:57,800
Another interesting thing was in Edgar Winter's backup band, the guitar player was Rick Daringer.

1189
00:46:57,800 --> 00:46:59,280
We were just talking about him last week.

1190
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:00,280
Rick Daringer, yeah.

1191
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:01,280
Rock and roll.

1192
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:05,040
He didn't have much of a solo career, but he was a heck of a guitar player.

1193
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,040
He really was, yeah.

1194
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,400
And he opened up for a lot of really good bands, too.

1195
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:09,400
Yeah, he did.

1196
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:13,480
He was like a great opener because he was a good guitar oriented guy and he could get

1197
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:16,920
the crowd to pump it a little bit but not overtake it.

1198
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:17,920
Yeah.

1199
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:22,360
He wasn't quite the guitar hero kind of guy.

1200
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:23,360
No.

1201
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:32,400
But he had kind of a raunchy, accessible sound, kind of an everyman.

1202
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:33,880
He was British, I think.

1203
00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:34,880
Was he?

1204
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:36,200
I don't remember.

1205
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:37,200
But he seemed American.

1206
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:42,040
I mean, he could pull off being American in American sound.

1207
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:44,240
So that kind of helped over here.

1208
00:47:44,240 --> 00:47:46,120
But anyway.

1209
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,160
That's interesting, I'm going to look that up, Edgar Winter.

1210
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:50,160
I want to see that.

1211
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,160
Yeah.

1212
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:52,160
I want to see that.

1213
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:53,160
That was fun.

1214
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:54,160
I want to hear it, too.

1215
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:59,720
And the transitions that you get in the studio version, he would have to, you know, the band

1216
00:47:59,720 --> 00:48:03,400
would have to kind of vamp for a little bit while he changed instruments and then he'd

1217
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:04,400
come in.

1218
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:09,160
So it's not quite as seamless as the studio version, but it's still pretty awesome.

1219
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:10,160
That's cool.

1220
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:11,160
I still love it.

1221
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:12,160
Anyhow, okay.

1222
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:17,480
I also read a story about Larry Mullins Jr., the drummer for U2.

1223
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:18,480
U2.

1224
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,560
Okay, I couldn't remember where the name was.

1225
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:25,760
He also drummed on Alice Cooper's Paranormal album.

1226
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:26,760
Okay.

1227
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:31,760
That's an album that I never really did get into that much, so I don't know.

1228
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,840
Yeah, there's some oddball songs on it, but there's some really tasty ones.

1229
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:35,840
I remember it.

1230
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:37,840
It was in the 90s, wasn't it?

1231
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:38,840
Paranormal?

1232
00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:39,840
Yeah.

1233
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,680
I think that was like five, six years ago.

1234
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,040
Oh, was that late?

1235
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:46,040
Pretty recent, yeah.

1236
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:49,880
Because Cindy and I went out to Starlight and saw them on that tour.

1237
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,960
Okay, I thought it was before that, but okay.

1238
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,800
Hailstorm opened and Motionless and White opened, too.

1239
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,320
So that wasn't all that.

1240
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,880
It was after Cindy and I got married, so it was in the last 13 years.

1241
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:02,880
Okay.

1242
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:03,880
All right.

1243
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:04,880
Hailstorm.

1244
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:05,880
I'm yet to see them, but I hear they're fantastic.

1245
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:06,880
They're a lot of fun.

1246
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:08,080
Now, the drummer's amazing.

1247
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:09,800
Yeah, Lizzy Hale is...

1248
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,480
Is this true that Lizzy Hale is the sister of...

1249
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:17,200
I forgot the name of her name now.

1250
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,200
Sings in another very prolific band.

1251
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:20,200
Shit, anyhow.

1252
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:21,200
I don't know.

1253
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:24,440
The only relative of hers I know is the drummer, A.J.

1254
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:25,440
Hale.

1255
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,480
Okay, it doesn't matter.

1256
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:28,480
Yeah.

1257
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:34,160
So the drummer is her brother, so that has helped her stay grounded in the band to always

1258
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:35,160
have her brother there.

1259
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,440
So there's always somebody in the band who's got your back.

1260
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:38,440
Yeah.

1261
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:39,440
Pretty awesome.

1262
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:40,440
Go ahead and keep talking.

1263
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,360
I'm gonna look this up because I think that was true.

1264
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:43,360
So Larry Mullen...

1265
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:44,360
Is it Mullen?

1266
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:52,160
Yeah, there's no S. Larry Mullen Jr. has been diagnosed and has recently gone public with

1267
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,160
a condition called dyscalculia.

1268
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,160
Did I get that right?

1269
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,600
Yeah, dyscalculia.

1270
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:05,320
It is the numbers version of dyslexia.

1271
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:09,600
In dyslexia, you get letters and words mixed up and backwards.

1272
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,400
You can't see them quite right.

1273
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:21,520
Well, in dyscalculia, he has so much trouble with numbers and he can't do math.

1274
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:25,240
And it makes it really difficult to count.

1275
00:50:25,240 --> 00:50:30,080
And it makes it really especially difficult to understand and play along with music.

1276
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:31,640
Oh, I would bet.

1277
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:37,960
So he has been overcoming this all these years to be the drummer of U2 and also be on demand

1278
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:38,960
for other albums.

1279
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:40,960
Wow, that is incredible.

1280
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:41,960
Yeah.

1281
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:46,200
And he said, people used to say, you know, man, you look so pained and strained when

1282
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:47,200
you're playing.

1283
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:48,960
You know, your face looks like you're not having a good time.

1284
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:50,760
And he said, it's tough.

1285
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:55,520
I'm out there trying to count and counting for me is like climbing Everest.

1286
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:56,520
It is so tough.

1287
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:57,520
It would have to be.

1288
00:50:57,520 --> 00:50:58,520
Geez.

1289
00:50:58,520 --> 00:50:59,520
Yeah.

1290
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:04,160
And in performance, you're just like hanging on by your fingernails because you can just

1291
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:05,440
barely do it.

1292
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:06,440
The Lizzy Hill.

1293
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:07,440
That's amazing.

1294
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,320
That was fake news there, apparently.

1295
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:12,080
I just saw an article that said that's bullshit.

1296
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:13,800
So forget everything.

1297
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:15,920
I'm glad I couldn't remember the person's name.

1298
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:16,920
Yeah.

1299
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:17,920
Yeah.

1300
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:18,920
I get a lot of those fake stuff.

1301
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:19,920
Yeah.

1302
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:27,240
But I thought, congrats on Larry Mullen for being able to be as good as he is and successful

1303
00:51:27,240 --> 00:51:30,920
as he is with that incredible disadvantage.

1304
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:35,880
He is so good on YouTube because he just does what's required and it sounds great.

1305
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:36,880
Yeah.

1306
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:37,880
You know.

1307
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:38,880
So, yeah.

1308
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:39,880
Wow.

1309
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:40,880
Yeah.

1310
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:41,880
That's overcoming a lot, actually.

1311
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:42,880
So good for you.

1312
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:43,880
Yeah.

1313
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:48,880
Let's see what else I got here.

1314
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:57,560
Well, I think the last music-related one I have is REO Speedwagon is done.

1315
00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:00,920
They have announced that they are over.

1316
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:04,240
But, Kronen, Kevin Kronen is touring.

1317
00:52:04,240 --> 00:52:05,240
Yes.

1318
00:52:05,240 --> 00:52:06,240
Yeah.

1319
00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:07,240
He's touring as a solo act.

1320
00:52:07,240 --> 00:52:09,840
He bills himself as Kevin Kronen of REO Speedwagon.

1321
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:11,600
Oh, is that what he's doing?

1322
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:12,600
Uh-huh.

1323
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:13,600
Okay.

1324
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:20,120
So, we went down to Kevin Kronen, the singer, and Bruce Hall, who is the bass player, and

1325
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,280
Neil Doughty, who is the keyboard player.

1326
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,320
Those three owned REO Speedwagon.

1327
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,200
REO Speedwagon name.

1328
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:27,200
Yeah.

1329
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:28,200
And they had a vote.

1330
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:29,800
I mean, none of them were really active.

1331
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:30,800
They weren't touring.

1332
00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,280
They weren't performing, doing anything as REO.

1333
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:38,840
So the other two said, let's just retire and be done with it.

1334
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:40,160
And Kevin Kronen voted no.

1335
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:41,520
I want to keep going.

1336
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,960
And the other two voted, yeah, we're done.

1337
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:44,960
So it was two to one.

1338
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:47,680
It looks to me like he's getting just as many gigs.

1339
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:48,680
I think he will.

1340
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:49,680
Yeah.

1341
00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:50,680
I think he will.

1342
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:52,600
Neil Doughty was a heck of a keyboard player.

1343
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:53,600
I agree.

1344
00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:54,600
An amazing keyboard player.

1345
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:55,600
I agree.

1346
00:52:55,600 --> 00:53:00,800
And the last concert I saw from them was probably less than 10 years ago.

1347
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:02,800
And he could still play.

1348
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:03,800
Wow.

1349
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,640
Crazy good keyboard player.

1350
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:12,400
They played a few years ago, Southern Missouri, Arkansas, as REO Speedwagon.

1351
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,680
They didn't come around here.

1352
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:21,240
Kevin Kronen already has a gig in Springfield this year coming up, some sort of a Rockfest

1353
00:53:21,240 --> 00:53:22,240
type of deal.

1354
00:53:22,240 --> 00:53:23,240
Yeah.

1355
00:53:23,240 --> 00:53:26,600
He's touring with Styx and I forget who else.

1356
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:27,600
There's one other.

1357
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:29,040
There's another old classic band.

1358
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:30,040
Yeah.

1359
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:31,240
But it's not quite the old classic band.

1360
00:53:31,240 --> 00:53:32,240
It's a version of them.

1361
00:53:32,240 --> 00:53:33,240
Yeah.

1362
00:53:33,240 --> 00:53:34,240
Yeah.

1363
00:53:34,240 --> 00:53:37,920
And in a sense, a lot of people hated Dennis DeYoung.

1364
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:43,480
It's not Styx without Dennis DeYoung to me because it was Yen and Yang, again, that makes

1365
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:44,480
music perfect.

1366
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:45,480
Yeah.

1367
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:48,360
It was so much of the sound was that softer edge that he brought to it.

1368
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:49,360
Yeah.

1369
00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:54,560
Dennis DeYoung to me was almost a Freddie Mercury that he brought to the Brian May.

1370
00:53:54,560 --> 00:54:00,240
You know, where Freddie Mercury was like this operatic guy, you know?

1371
00:54:00,240 --> 00:54:01,240
Yeah.

1372
00:54:01,240 --> 00:54:03,760
Classical influence on a lot of different levels.

1373
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:08,160
Brian May was a guitarist guitarist with the crunchiness and the riffs.

1374
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:09,600
But they made it blend.

1375
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:14,200
They made it blend so well and they constantly fought about the music but loved each other.

1376
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:19,080
You know, another one like that was Gary Sharone and Noodle Betancourt.

1377
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:20,080
Yeah.

1378
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:23,680
They said that they were constantly fighting each other, constantly on the music.

1379
00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:27,680
It's the same way with Tommy Shaw and Dennis DeYoung.

1380
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:28,680
Yeah.

1381
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:29,680
They hated each other music.

1382
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:34,040
Well, now they don't like each other at all but before, you know, they got along but they

1383
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:38,320
hated each other's music style and they constantly were butting heads.

1384
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:41,320
But what they figured out was that made great music.

1385
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:42,720
Steven Tyler and Joe Perry.

1386
00:54:42,720 --> 00:54:44,120
Oh, that's a great one.

1387
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:45,960
They were nicknamed the Toxic Twins.

1388
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:46,960
Yes.

1389
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:47,960
Yep.

1390
00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:50,800
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.

1391
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:52,100
That's another, that's a really good one.

1392
00:54:52,100 --> 00:54:53,920
They were nicknamed the Glimmer Twins.

1393
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:54,920
The Glimmer Twins, yeah.

1394
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:55,920
They fought like crazy.

1395
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:56,920
Yep.

1396
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:58,920
But they made a heck of a lot of good music.

1397
00:54:58,920 --> 00:54:59,920
Yeah.

1398
00:54:59,920 --> 00:55:00,920
Yeah, the Glimmer Twins, yep.

1399
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:04,880
There was a lot of other great examples too and a lot of-

1400
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:05,880
Lennon and McCartney.

1401
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:08,880
Lennon and McCartney's a great example.

1402
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:09,880
Yeah.

1403
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:11,880
Only that did end pretty badly.

1404
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:12,880
Yeah.

1405
00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:19,680
I can't even remember, did McCartney even go to Lennon's funeral?

1406
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:21,280
I don't know.

1407
00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:25,240
I know McCartney was the holdout in the Beatles reunion on Saturday Night Live.

1408
00:55:25,240 --> 00:55:26,340
Yeah, that's it, yeah.

1409
00:55:26,340 --> 00:55:30,640
The other three were there ready to go and McCartney's like, yeah, I can't be bothered.

1410
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:31,640
Yeah.

1411
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:35,000
And the whole thing started out as a joke on Saturday Night Live because they were offering

1412
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:44,120
joke prizes and then Lennon called up and said, I'm in.

1413
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:46,160
Yeah and-

1414
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:50,160
I think at the closing credits of that episode of Saturday Night Live you can see Lennon

1415
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:55,480
and Harrison and Star standing there, or at least Lennon and Harrison.

1416
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:59,120
He's like, we were here, we tried.

1417
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:00,120
Yeah.

1418
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:08,200
Yeah, he was a cop a couple of years ago before that in Canada so I think he was kind of intimidated

1419
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:09,200
by showing up there.

1420
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,200
That's true, that's true.

1421
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:13,200
Yeah.

1422
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:14,200
Billy.

1423
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:15,200
Yeah, Billy.

1424
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:18,200
Billy McCartney, I mean Paul McCartney.

1425
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:19,200
Paul McCartney.

1426
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:24,480
And I think you're right about John Lennon symbolizing his death to him through that

1427
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,800
and that's all it was, was him symbolizing-

1428
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:31,560
Yeah he was mentally killing Paul McCartney over and over and over.

1429
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:33,640
And he was that type of guy that had to do that to him.

1430
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:38,020
Yeah, that's how he could handle dealing with him on a daily basis like, yeah, in my mind

1431
00:56:38,020 --> 00:56:39,020
I've already killed you a hundred times.

1432
00:56:39,020 --> 00:56:42,120
Yeah, you're dead, I know, I have to worry about you.

1433
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:44,920
And let's face it, they both did very well without each other.

1434
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:46,800
Yeah, that's true.

1435
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,840
I still say that Lennon probably wrote better songs but whatever.

1436
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:50,840
Yeah.

1437
00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:51,840
I know a lot of people-

1438
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:52,840
I like Lennon songs better.

1439
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:54,560
I mean, McCartney's were more pop and-

1440
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:56,040
Well, with the Wings-

1441
00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:59,840
Booky and radio friendly and that really wasn't what I was into.

1442
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:00,840
Yeah.

1443
00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:02,360
I like some of the stuff he did with the Wings.

1444
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:03,960
Yeah, Wings was a good band.

1445
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:07,320
Wings was a really good band but then after that I really didn't care for anything.

1446
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:08,320
No.

1447
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:11,800
He did that much to me like you and it's just poppy and no substance really.

1448
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:12,800
Yeah.

1449
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,440
Yeah, where Lennon's right and imagined.

1450
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:19,920
And you know, I think what bugged me the most is everything Paul McCartney put out, no matter

1451
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:25,320
how poppy or schlocky or easy listening it was, it was still played on the rock and roll

1452
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,000
stations just because it was Paul McCartney.

1453
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,440
Which pissed me off because it was horrible.

1454
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:30,440
Yeah.

1455
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:37,040
You know, you listen on KY and you hear Aerosmith or Deep Purple and then they go into Paul

1456
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:41,360
McCartney and I'm like, no, I don't care if he was a Beatle.

1457
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:42,360
No.

1458
00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:43,360
You don't play that here.

1459
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:44,360
Get it out of here.

1460
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,880
Yeah, that was after they stopped listening to us, the listeners, and started going with

1461
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:52,280
what the programming services told them was, this will optimize your profits.

1462
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:53,280
Oh yeah, yeah.

1463
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:58,640
That was something that KY did so well was they did what they wanted to and they always

1464
00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:01,480
have program directors that didn't give a shit.

1465
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:02,480
Yeah.

1466
00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:05,840
And at the end of the day they had a lot of challengers but at the end of the day they

1467
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:06,840
won all of them.

1468
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:10,160
I mean, you know, until big corporations killed them.

1469
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:14,320
Yeah, there really were kind of two kinds of radio stations, the ones that would play

1470
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:18,600
you what you wanted to hear and the ones that would try to make you listen to what they

1471
00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:19,600
wanted to play.

1472
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:20,600
Yes.

1473
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:21,600
And you know what?

1474
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,880
There's a political party kind of like that that wants to make you listen to what they

1475
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:25,880
want to play.

1476
00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:29,400
And they're not doing so well right now, are they?

1477
00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:32,360
We won't mention any names because there's more than two political parties.

1478
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:36,920
Yeah, they're kind of looking at each other going, how did that happen?

1479
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:44,680
Well, Joe Worker here and Joe Retirement there, we know why it happened.

1480
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:45,680
So, anyhow.

1481
00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:48,880
All right, but do you have anything else you want to go into?

1482
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:51,760
Oh, I got some non-music stuff but it's still interesting.

1483
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:58,400
Okay, we can go back into some of the music stuff a little bit later because I have some

1484
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:03,960
more of the rock musicians that went broke.

1485
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,640
A lot of them came back afterwards but they did go broke and it tells why.

1486
00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:11,560
But could you pause this for a second?

1487
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:12,560
Sure.

1488
00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:14,560
All right.

1489
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:16,520
All right.

1490
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:21,060
Well, one last thing I was going to mention was lately I've been watching some reaction

1491
00:59:21,060 --> 00:59:24,840
videos from a guy in England.

1492
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:28,240
He's probably 20, 24 years old.

1493
00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:31,680
Goes by the name Molly Boy.

1494
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:38,880
And he grew up listening to hip hop and the only rock he really liked was Nirvana.

1495
00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:43,080
So he started this YouTube channel that a lot of his friends kept saying, you should

1496
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,400
listen to this song and try out this song.

1497
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:48,720
And so he's like, well, I'm just going to do reaction videos.

1498
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:55,040
So he's listening to a lot of songs and bands for the very first time.

1499
00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:57,160
And his reactions are just amazing.

1500
00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:01,660
I love his expressions and the way he talks.

1501
01:00:01,660 --> 01:00:03,440
He's a sucker for a guitar solo.

1502
01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:05,400
He just loves guitar solos.

1503
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:06,400
That's cool.

1504
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:11,960
Now, one of the things he keeps mentioning over and over was the sound of all the instruments.

1505
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:14,520
It's so good.

1506
01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:20,880
Even like back in the 70s and the 80s, it's like this snare drum sound is just so excellent

1507
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,760
as I can't believe how good this thing sounds.

1508
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:31,160
And it occurred to me that he's actually hearing real instruments played by a real person in

1509
01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:34,200
real time.

1510
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:40,080
What happens now is somebody will record the perfect snare hit and then they'll just use

1511
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:43,280
that recorded sample over and over and over.

1512
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:45,680
That's your snare hit for the whole song.

1513
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:50,040
But he's hearing music where there was an actual drummer and every time they hit that

1514
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,960
drum, it was slightly different.

1515
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:58,320
And you're getting all the nuances of that drum and that shell and that microphone and

1516
01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,000
that recording studio.

1517
01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:02,560
He's never heard anything so amazingly organic.

1518
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:04,840
It is just blowing his mind.

1519
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:06,240
That is cool.

1520
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:10,360
So much music is processed now and compressed and homogenized.

1521
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:11,360
Yeah, I know.

1522
01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:12,360
It's amazing.

1523
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:13,360
There's no feeling.

1524
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:16,400
They took out all the feeling in it.

1525
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:19,880
I have Rob's Top 7 Country One Hit Wonders.

1526
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:20,880
Oh, excellent.

1527
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:26,240
Yeah, I forgot to get to this on the last one because your voice was going out rapidly

1528
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:28,240
and there's nothing we could do.

1529
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:34,920
Alright, he sent in the Top 7 Country One Hit Wonders and this is what Ronnie from Tulsa

1530
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:40,520
King, he came up with this one for him knowing that he is a country music fan.

1531
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:46,040
So, okay, the number one that he has on the list is Dust on the Bottle, 1995.

1532
01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:47,520
Oh yeah.

1533
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:49,280
David Lee Murphy.

1534
01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:50,280
I remember that song.

1535
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,440
Yeah, I don't remember David Lee Murphy but I remember that song.

1536
01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,400
So what Rob said there is perfect right there.

1537
01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:00,240
I played in the country band for a few years so there's going to be some of these songs

1538
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:01,240
I'll know.

1539
01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:07,200
Yeah, and I remember the song but not the artist so he is absolutely 100% right on that.

1540
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:11,680
So number two that he has on the list actually doesn't have numbers on them.

1541
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:18,400
So okay, Should've Asked Her Faster by 1995 by Ty England.

1542
01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:19,520
I don't think I know that one.

1543
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:25,400
I don't think I know that one either but it sounds like a 1995 country song because that's

1544
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:28,200
when they're coming in big with all the pop stuff.

1545
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:29,200
Yeah, yeah.

1546
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:33,000
You know, rock went dirt and then they went pop.

1547
01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:40,160
Yeah, there's so much of modern country that sounds just as hard rock as hard rock of the

1548
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:41,160
70s.

1549
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:42,160
Yeah, yeah.

1550
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:43,160
It's crazy.

1551
01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:47,360
It's written in the same chords and scale a lot of it.

1552
01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,400
There's not that much difference.

1553
01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:52,800
Just the way that they sing it and they throw in a little steel guitar here and there for

1554
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:54,800
good measure and that's about it.

1555
01:02:54,800 --> 01:03:03,160
So the next one he has is Feed Jake, 1991 Pirates of the Mississippi would be the artist.

1556
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:06,800
Don't know that one.

1557
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:07,800
You know what?

1558
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:11,800
I mean tonight on the Douchebag Show I'll ask him.

1559
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:12,800
Yeah.

1560
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,880
I'll ask him to describe the songs or go in depth on them.

1561
01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:16,880
Yeah.

1562
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:17,880
There we go.

1563
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:24,480
The next one, I remember this one, Strawberry Wine, 1996 by Dina Carter.

1564
01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:25,480
Yeah.

1565
01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:29,760
Again, don't remember her but remember the song.

1566
01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:35,920
I think she was trying to imply that she was part of the June Carter Cash family.

1567
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:36,920
I think you're right.

1568
01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:37,920
Yeah, she wasn't.

1569
01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:38,920
Yeah.

1570
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,480
But she kind of tried to insinuate herself in.

1571
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:43,760
She got called out fairly early on it.

1572
01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:47,680
But now you have nothing to do with them and we know this.

1573
01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:50,480
Remember Paul McCartney's wife, Linda?

1574
01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:51,800
Yeah.

1575
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:53,480
She went by Linda Eastman?

1576
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,160
That's right.

1577
01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:59,680
And she tried to insinuate that her family was the same as like the Eastman Kodak.

1578
01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:00,680
Yeah, I remember that.

1579
01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:01,680
But they weren't.

1580
01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:02,680
No.

1581
01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:06,080
They changed their name from Epstein because they didn't want people to know they were

1582
01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:07,080
Jewish.

1583
01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:08,080
Yep.

1584
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:12,000
But she could have let it go there but she started implying that she was part of that

1585
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:13,000
family.

1586
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:15,320
And the Eastland family said, no, no you aren't.

1587
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:16,320
You're not.

1588
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:22,760
See, I think she married such a legend and all that that she wanted to have her own legacy.

1589
01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:23,760
She wanted a backstory.

1590
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:24,760
Yeah, yep.

1591
01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:25,760
And well.

1592
01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:26,760
Yep.

1593
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:28,400
And she got him back.

1594
01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:30,320
She got breast cancer and died.

1595
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:31,320
Like there.

1596
01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:32,320
Show him.

1597
01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:33,320
Yeah.

1598
01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:34,320
That was horrible.

1599
01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:35,320
I apologize.

1600
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:36,320
That was, yeah.

1601
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:37,320
All right.

1602
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:39,120
And then McCartney married the gold digger.

1603
01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:40,120
Now who's talking about who?

1604
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:41,120
Yeah.

1605
01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:42,440
Yeah, the one-legged gold digger.

1606
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:43,440
The one-legged gold digger.

1607
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:50,600
That liked to piss in a little porta potty deal.

1608
01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:52,320
She definitely had some bathroom fetishes.

1609
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:53,320
Oh.

1610
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:54,320
Yeah.

1611
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:57,400
How do you go to that from being Paul McCartney?

1612
01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:58,400
The sex must have been great.

1613
01:04:58,400 --> 01:04:59,400
It had to have been insane.

1614
01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:00,400
Yeah.

1615
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:02,920
Must have been something about one-legged chick that's just amazing.

1616
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:03,920
I don't know.

1617
01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:04,920
You know.

1618
01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:09,560
Apparently she was willing to do things that even in France they thought was disgusting.

1619
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:12,560
And that's, wow.

1620
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:17,320
You're really going, yeah, you're saying something there.

1621
01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:18,320
How we got to that I don't know.

1622
01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:19,320
I don't know.

1623
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:20,320
But any, all right.

1624
01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:24,400
I think it's the E. Breakey Heart, 1992 by Billy Ray Cyrus.

1625
01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:27,840
And that would be, what's her name's dad?

1626
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:28,840
Miley's daddy.

1627
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:29,840
Miley's dad, yeah.

1628
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:30,840
Hannah Montana's dad.

1629
01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:31,840
Oh wait, no.

1630
01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:32,840
She's not Hannah Montana anymore.

1631
01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:33,840
No.

1632
01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:34,840
No.

1633
01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:35,840
That was her Disney persona.

1634
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:36,840
Nope.

1635
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:40,880
She's snatch grabbing fucking Miley Cyrus.

1636
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:44,240
But you know, she's still a better human being than her dad is.

1637
01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:45,240
Yeah.

1638
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:48,000
Because Billy Ray has been in all sorts of legal trouble.

1639
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:51,560
And he's apparently a jerk and a bully and a sexual predator.

1640
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:52,560
That's what it sounds like.

1641
01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:53,560
Yeah.

1642
01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:59,120
So there are a lot of people starting to think that he sexually abused his daughter.

1643
01:05:59,120 --> 01:06:02,840
And that her hypersexuality is a result of that.

1644
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:08,720
That would make sense because, and also he pimped her out to Disney to make the show.

1645
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:09,720
I mean, yeah.

1646
01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:11,720
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.

1647
01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:12,720
Yep.

1648
01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,560
That guy, he kind of lost his luster in a big way, didn't he?

1649
01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,000
And not just lost his luster, but he fell from grace.

1650
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:20,480
I mean, he fell so hard that it fucking, yeah.

1651
01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:24,000
And did you know Achey Brachy Heart was a cover?

1652
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:25,000
Somebody else did it first.

1653
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:26,000
I did know that actually.

1654
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:27,000
I can't remember who did it.

1655
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:29,920
It was back in the early 60s I think.

1656
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:31,400
Probably, yeah.

1657
01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:34,320
But it wasn't even his song.

1658
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,840
A lot of people don't know that, but I actually knew that because I remember reading that

1659
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:38,840
and going, huh, okay.

1660
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:39,840
Yep.

1661
01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:40,840
So, alright.

1662
01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:42,880
I guess no one had done it with a mullet before.

1663
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:43,880
I guess not.

1664
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:44,880
And tight Levi's.

1665
01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:45,880
Shit kicker boots.

1666
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:46,880
Yep.

1667
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:54,880
I hear he had a filling full patch on the front of his Levi's.

1668
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:58,400
Yeah, he had a little sock stuffer there.

1669
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:02,640
Hey, I'm Billy Ray Cyrus.

1670
01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:03,640
Look what I'm working with, kids.

1671
01:07:03,640 --> 01:07:04,640
Yeah, that's right.

1672
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:08,640
He took the fake latex balls off the back of his pickup truck and stuffed them down

1673
01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:10,440
his pants for the video.

1674
01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:12,440
His trans pickup truck.

1675
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:13,440
Yeah, yeah.

1676
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:17,760
It's funny how many guys love to have their transgender pickup truck with the balls hanging

1677
01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:20,200
on it.

1678
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:24,720
I keep waiting for a woman driving a pickup truck to drive around in some big vagina hanging

1679
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:27,800
off the back of her trailer.

1680
01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:28,800
Dare.

1681
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:33,080
What kind of truck would she be driving?

1682
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:34,080
A Nissan may I?

1683
01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:35,080
Dodge Dakota.

1684
01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:36,080
Dodge Dakota.

1685
01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:39,080
Yep, there you go.

1686
01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:41,720
Or a Honda Ridgeline.

1687
01:07:41,720 --> 01:07:42,720
Ridgeline, yeah.

1688
01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:43,720
Either one.

1689
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:44,720
Either one will work.

1690
01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:45,720
Subaru Brat.

1691
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:46,720
Subaru Brat.

1692
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:47,720
Yeah.

1693
01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:48,720
That's it.

1694
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:49,720
Hands down.

1695
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:50,720
That's got to be it.

1696
01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:51,720
Yeah.

1697
01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:54,720
She'd go around and stop everyone and go, I lived.

1698
01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,720
Remember that stupid ask a birthday?

1699
01:07:57,720 --> 01:07:58,720
Nobody asked you.

1700
01:07:58,720 --> 01:07:59,720
Yeah.

1701
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:04,720
We're not saying we're happy about it, so don't go around bragging.

1702
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:07,720
Okay, now back to Rob.

1703
01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:10,720
Harper Valley PTA, 1968.

1704
01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:11,720
Wow, 1968.

1705
01:08:11,720 --> 01:08:14,600
I remember when that song came out.

1706
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:16,720
That was on the top 40 for a while.

1707
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:17,720
WHB AM710.

1708
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:20,720
Yeah, it had to have been 1968.

1709
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:21,720
Yeah.

1710
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:22,720
That's before KY.

1711
01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:26,720
KY came out in 74 maybe, was it?

1712
01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:27,720
Yeah.

1713
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:28,720
Yeah.

1714
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:33,000
My family moved back to Kansas City in 68 and I was seven years old.

1715
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:36,400
Did you have a WHB Car Star?

1716
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:37,400
Oh yeah.

1717
01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:38,400
You remember those?

1718
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:39,400
Yeah, I remember those.

1719
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:40,400
Yeah, I saw a lot of those.

1720
01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:41,400
I remember the Chicken Man.

1721
01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:42,400
Chicken Man, yeah.

1722
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:43,400
Chicken Man.

1723
01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:44,400
He's everywhere.

1724
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:45,400
He's everywhere.

1725
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:46,400
Yeah.

1726
01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:48,400
It really wasn't even that funny.

1727
01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:49,400
Yeah.

1728
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:50,400
It was just like, oh, okay.

1729
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,200
Remember Sky Spy?

1730
01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:55,200
That was the traffic guy.

1731
01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:56,200
Yeah.

1732
01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:57,200
He used to yell at people.

1733
01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:00,200
He used to be like, what the hell are you guys doing down there on I-35?

1734
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:05,200
It's just a guy that needs to get a new battery.

1735
01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:06,960
Get up, go get, start moving.

1736
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:07,960
What the hell?

1737
01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:09,240
I mean, he was great.

1738
01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:15,280
I remember what I liked the most about that Harbor Valley PTA was the funky syncopation

1739
01:09:15,280 --> 01:09:20,280
in the... Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

1740
01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:25,280
No, no, that was... They tried to make that song risque.

1741
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:28,520
No, I was thinking of Tallahatchie Bridge song.

1742
01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:29,520
Oh, okay.

1743
01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:31,040
No, Harbor Valley PTA.

1744
01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:34,760
I do remember Harbor Valley PTA, but it was more of a sassy, straight up.

1745
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:39,080
Yeah, that's what I'm saying, sassy... Kind of in the mode of Dolly Parton singing Nine

1746
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:40,080
to Five.

1747
01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:41,080
Yeah.

1748
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:42,080
Kind of along those lines.

1749
01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:43,720
Yeah, I would call risque the way they did it.

1750
01:09:43,720 --> 01:09:47,080
As a day, I socked it to the Harbor Valley.

1751
01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:48,080
Yeah.

1752
01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:55,080
All right, and then finally, I think everyone will remember this, Convoy 1976 CW Cole.

1753
01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:58,080
Just like the bird.

1754
01:09:58,080 --> 01:09:59,080
Yeah.

1755
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:03,080
Except... Actually, I think they're spelled different.

1756
01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:06,080
CW Cole wasn't even his name.

1757
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:07,080
No.

1758
01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:12,480
I can't remember what his real name was, but he's done a number of novelty songs like that.

1759
01:10:12,480 --> 01:10:14,000
He wasn't the country kind of guy.

1760
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,080
He was just whatever he could paint up with.

1761
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:20,080
Yeah, and that's what... The gig he got, and that's what he did.

1762
01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:28,280
After that single Convoy faded, he started the band Mannheim Steamroller, if you remember

1763
01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:29,280
then.

1764
01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:30,280
Yes, I do.

1765
01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:31,280
Wow.

1766
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:32,280
Yeah.

1767
01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:34,280
It wasn't an instrumental, mostly.

1768
01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:35,280
Yeah, it was.

1769
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:38,480
It was like a precursor to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

1770
01:10:38,480 --> 01:10:40,400
I was getting ready to say, yeah.

1771
01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:45,480
They were on a more, let's see, elegant level, maybe, because Trans-Siberian Orchestra gets

1772
01:10:45,480 --> 01:10:50,080
rockers, gets shit kickers, gets everybody.

1773
01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:56,720
That is like... To think that there's members of Sabotage that started that.

1774
01:10:56,720 --> 01:11:00,280
Let's see, one of them died, the guitarist, maybe.

1775
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:01,280
I think so, yeah.

1776
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:02,280
Yeah.

1777
01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:05,280
But it still has his brother in the band.

1778
01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:10,320
But you know the thing always bothered me about the Trans-Siberian Orchestra?

1779
01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:11,320
They didn't wear dresses.

1780
01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:14,000
No, I don't believe they're all trans.

1781
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:15,000
That's what I... Yeah.

1782
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:16,000
Okay, we went to the same place.

1783
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:18,640
It's the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

1784
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:21,960
I was thinking they should at least wear dresses if they're going to be a trans orchestra,

1785
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:22,960
but no.

1786
01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:23,960
If they're going to claim to be transgender.

1787
01:11:23,960 --> 01:11:24,960
I mean, come on, yeah.

1788
01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:25,960
Yeah.

1789
01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:26,960
False advertising, yeah.

1790
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,960
Cultural appropriation, man.

1791
01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:30,960
That's right.

1792
01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:34,080
I can't believe you're using their name without actually being it.

1793
01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:35,080
That's insulting.

1794
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:40,080
Why don't you just call yourself the Bisexual Siberian Orchestra if you're not gay.

1795
01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:44,600
No one has an answer for that.

1796
01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:47,320
Skip next.

1797
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:49,320
You mean words have more than one meaning?

1798
01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:50,320
Huh.

1799
01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:53,580
And some words were in use long before we decided they were a buzzword?

1800
01:11:53,580 --> 01:11:57,120
If you believe Led Zeppelin, words sometimes do have two meanings.

1801
01:11:57,120 --> 01:12:00,120
Yeah, I just heard that the other day.

1802
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:02,240
Yeah, and then you play it backwards.

1803
01:12:02,240 --> 01:12:11,000
It says, Sweet Satan is massaging my foot and ate my pencil.

1804
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:13,000
And buy Goodyear tires.

1805
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:14,000
Yes.

1806
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,720
Because Satan said so.

1807
01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:17,720
Exactly.

1808
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:20,960
That's what I want to put in a song.

1809
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:26,960
I want to make a song and backwards it says, Satan ate my pencil.

1810
01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:31,240
I want to put one that says, Dumb shit, why are you spinning this record backwards?

1811
01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:34,400
Now you've got to get a new one, don't you?

1812
01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:35,400
That's right.

1813
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:36,400
You've got to replace that needle too.

1814
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:37,400
That's right, fuck stick.

1815
01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:40,400
You've got to get a new one.

1816
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:41,960
Oh man.

1817
01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:43,520
All right.

1818
01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:44,720
Let's see.

1819
01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:49,760
You had some other stuff that you wanted to get into, maybe possibly?

1820
01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:51,200
Yeah.

1821
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:55,440
Something I've been noticing on TV shows just is general trends.

1822
01:12:55,440 --> 01:12:59,080
Yeah.

1823
01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:08,440
It seems like on a lot of the, especially situational comedies, it's pretty much a given

1824
01:13:08,440 --> 01:13:14,000
in the storyline that people are going to try to get away with something.

1825
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:18,640
Get extra, get stuff they don't deserve, get away with doing something, even if there's

1826
01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:22,200
absolutely no reason to, just because they can.

1827
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:23,200
That's a good point.

1828
01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:28,160
It really is, and I think it's like that people like the thought of getting away, getting

1829
01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:29,160
by with something.

1830
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:33,960
They like the voyeuristic aspect of seeing this and going, look what they're doing.

1831
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:37,320
Hey, hey, hey Jimmy, come here, look at that.

1832
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:43,560
In the TV show, it's always portrayed as funny or clever or, oh look at him, ha ha, he sure

1833
01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:45,240
got over on so and so.

1834
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:46,240
It's always portrayed positive.

1835
01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:49,320
He took that corpse and just killed it and put it in so and so's closet.

1836
01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:50,680
No, that's true.

1837
01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:56,680
And I'm thinking the reason is it goes back to giving people the illusion that they have

1838
01:13:56,680 --> 01:14:01,120
something that they don't, which is defiance against the system.

1839
01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:02,120
That's right.

1840
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:08,280
I mean, they will let people rebel in little teeny tiny ways, but not in meaningful ways.

1841
01:14:08,280 --> 01:14:13,640
So by portraying it on TV in this fashion, we're all getting the idea that, ha ha, we

1842
01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:14,960
got away with something.

1843
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,760
Psychologically, I think that's spot on.

1844
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:18,760
Yeah.

1845
01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:20,760
It makes sense why it's, go ahead.

1846
01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:25,120
That's why gambling is so popular because every time you win, you feel like you got

1847
01:14:25,120 --> 01:14:26,120
away with something.

1848
01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:28,520
And also gambling is the perfect scenario.

1849
01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:29,520
They lie.

1850
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:30,520
Yes.

1851
01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:31,520
Gamblers lie.

1852
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:33,720
Oh, I won so big and everyone's like, wow, he won.

1853
01:14:33,720 --> 01:14:35,920
He's a stupid ass.

1854
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:36,920
Yeah.

1855
01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:39,480
Everybody lies about their gambling and what they won.

1856
01:14:39,480 --> 01:14:41,960
Everyone's like, oh yeah, yeah, I took them to the bank.

1857
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:42,960
Oh my God.

1858
01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:46,320
Yeah, they, they, they, man, they won't let me in the door.

1859
01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:47,320
Yeah.

1860
01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:48,320
Yeah.

1861
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:53,920
It's amazing that this industry can get people to be their own best promoters.

1862
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:54,920
Yeah.

1863
01:14:54,920 --> 01:14:59,400
They don't even have to spend much money advertising because the gamblers will go out and promote

1864
01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:02,880
it relentlessly just cause they don't want to be the only ones gambling.

1865
01:15:02,880 --> 01:15:03,880
It's a perfect crime.

1866
01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:04,880
Yeah.

1867
01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:07,840
You lose and you go around and tell everybody you won.

1868
01:15:07,840 --> 01:15:08,880
Yeah.

1869
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:11,880
And I think part of it is not to sound like a dumb ass and foolish.

1870
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:15,280
And I think part of it is to bring people in on your misery.

1871
01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:16,480
Yeah.

1872
01:15:16,480 --> 01:15:21,560
But if you're in a watch, if you're watching TV shows, watch for that where they, they show

1873
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:27,280
people getting away with something or, or beating the system or like, I already know

1874
01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:31,520
several examples like on big bang theory, Penny was always talking about, you know,

1875
01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:35,120
this slinky black dress got me out of three speeding tickets.

1876
01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:37,040
That's another, and then the audience laughs.

1877
01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:40,040
And that's another example of getting away with something, gaming.

1878
01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,040
But is that misogynistic?

1879
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:43,040
Yeah.

1880
01:15:43,040 --> 01:15:45,040
Well, wait a minute.

1881
01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:46,040
Hang on.

1882
01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:49,120
Because it's a female, she can do that?

1883
01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:56,040
Well, see, that's up to the, the police officer to not give a damn if she's attractive or

1884
01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:57,040
fit or whatever.

1885
01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,600
It's just like, no, you're getting the speeding ticket.

1886
01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:03,600
What you're saying is, is there's different, there's different things where you can be

1887
01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:05,680
misogynistic and it's okay.

1888
01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:06,680
Okay.

1889
01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:11,320
So they get to pick and choose what's misogynistic.

1890
01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:12,320
Yeah.

1891
01:16:12,320 --> 01:16:13,320
I'm sorry to interrupt.

1892
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:19,040
So yeah, that is, that's a common thing is a woman bragging about using her sexuality

1893
01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:21,000
to get away with something.

1894
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:25,760
And then five minutes later, you see another female character screaming, complaining about

1895
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:28,440
being objectified as a sexual object.

1896
01:16:28,440 --> 01:16:29,440
Yeah.

1897
01:16:29,440 --> 01:16:33,240
And then you realize that Hollywood doesn't have an agenda.

1898
01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:36,280
They're just throwing everything out there, hoping you'll buy it.

1899
01:16:36,280 --> 01:16:37,280
Exactly.

1900
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:38,720
If they find something to stick, so go with it.

1901
01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:41,440
If they don't, then they just go ahead and go on to the next thing.

1902
01:16:41,440 --> 01:16:42,440
That's true.

1903
01:16:42,440 --> 01:16:47,000
But the other trend I've been noticing in a lot of TV shows, and this I'm sure has been

1904
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:53,800
happening a long time, but I'm really noticing it as a pervasive thing is whenever difficulties

1905
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:57,800
or problems arise in the show, like every show has to have some sort of conflict that

1906
01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:03,040
needs to be resolved or a difficulty or an obstacle to overcome.

1907
01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:10,000
Almost all the time, the show will send, will show people spending money to fix the problem.

1908
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:11,000
That's true.

1909
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:12,640
They always spend the money.

1910
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:17,320
It's the only answer they go to constantly is, well, you can get out of this.

1911
01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:18,800
Just buy a new one.

1912
01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:19,800
Yeah.

1913
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:20,800
Yeah.

1914
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:21,800
Or upgrade to the next phone.

1915
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:22,800
You know that's the sponsors that do that.

1916
01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:25,200
Or pay for this service to come in and fix it.

1917
01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:27,320
It's always spend money.

1918
01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:30,960
That's how problems get solved on TV is someone spends money.

1919
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:35,200
Have you noticed the new double, kind of on the same thing, the new double layer commercial

1920
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:38,800
that has Snoop Dogg and Patrick Mahomes?

1921
01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:39,800
Yep.

1922
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:44,520
It's interesting because you got the old wise guy, you know, been around forever.

1923
01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:49,160
You know, he knows a little bit everything and he's the guy that says, don't give everything,

1924
01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:50,840
don't give everything away so fast T-Mobile.

1925
01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:51,840
Yep.

1926
01:17:51,840 --> 01:17:56,960
And you got Patrick Mahomes pimping going, this new thing is the most incredible thing.

1927
01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:59,600
That thing is a very brilliant commercial.

1928
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:00,600
That's pretty clever.

1929
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:05,760
Yeah, it is because you got the older wiser guy that's been around forever going, hey,

1930
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:09,240
stop giving away all this stuff right now guys, you're going to run out of shit.

1931
01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:12,040
And you got Mahomes going, man, this is the best ever.

1932
01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:13,040
Everybody wants everything now.

1933
01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:14,520
So let's give it to them now.

1934
01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:15,520
Yeah.

1935
01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:16,520
Yeah.

1936
01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:17,520
Yep.

1937
01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:21,760
And you got Snoop Dogg clarifying that going, hey, you guys got to slow down.

1938
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:24,440
So yeah, let's just think about that commercial.

1939
01:18:24,440 --> 01:18:26,280
Why did they use both of them?

1940
01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:30,520
The same reason they use Deion Sanders and Nick Saban.

1941
01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:32,920
Nick Saban is the old wise guy.

1942
01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:35,000
He's been around forever, college coach.

1943
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:36,000
He knows.

1944
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:39,400
And he's one that says Aflac means money.

1945
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:40,400
Yeah.

1946
01:18:40,400 --> 01:18:44,880
And Deion Sanders is a goofy guy that's going around with a duck.

1947
01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:46,360
How that happened, I have no idea.

1948
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:48,880
Must be paying him enough.

1949
01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:50,480
No, that's how it happened.

1950
01:18:50,480 --> 01:18:51,480
They paid him enough.

1951
01:18:51,480 --> 01:18:52,880
I mean, why would Nick Saban do it?

1952
01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:57,200
He doesn't, traditionally doesn't do anything, well, did anything but coach you.

1953
01:18:57,200 --> 01:19:02,440
He was kind of a hard nosed guy that knew how to recruit, knew how to bring people down.

1954
01:19:02,440 --> 01:19:06,160
You know, he's not a guy that go around, but he played himself.

1955
01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:10,480
He had his glasses down around his nose.

1956
01:19:10,480 --> 01:19:11,480
Aflac means money.

1957
01:19:11,480 --> 01:19:12,480
Yep.

1958
01:19:12,480 --> 01:19:14,360
Yeah, you know, yep.

1959
01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:15,960
It just kind of like Snoop Dogg.

1960
01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:19,960
Don't give everything away at once, guys.

1961
01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:23,960
That's a formula that I've been noticing quite a bit lately.

1962
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:24,960
Yeah.

1963
01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:25,960
So.

1964
01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:32,040
And some things that I thought were trends before actually all fall under these.

1965
01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:35,280
You know, spend money to solve your problems.

1966
01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:37,840
Like the people who will fly last minute.

1967
01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:40,680
It's like, oh, last second, let's just go fly somewhere.

1968
01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:41,680
Oh, yeah.

1969
01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:44,560
It always works out perfectly because they're spending money.

1970
01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:46,600
When it never does in real life.

1971
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:47,960
Yeah, it doesn't.

1972
01:19:47,960 --> 01:19:52,440
Or they get the new car or the new computer or whatever.

1973
01:19:52,440 --> 01:19:58,320
It always works perfectly because they want to reward behavior of spending money.

1974
01:19:58,320 --> 01:20:03,000
And when you watch that for hours a day of people spending money and the life works out

1975
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:07,720
great for them, of course we'll be in debt.

1976
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:09,600
We're trying to recreate what we see on TV.

1977
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:14,160
Well, I mean, that's what our economy is built on from the government up.

1978
01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:17,000
I mean, trillions.

1979
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:21,040
I think it's even probably thousands of trillions now, not even hundreds.

1980
01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:22,600
Yeah, it's nuts.

1981
01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:23,600
Yeah.

1982
01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:28,080
Every day you hear about a new spending package in the trillions.

1983
01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:30,280
So the whole thing's built on...

1984
01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:31,280
House of Cards.

1985
01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:32,280
Yeah, House of Cards.

1986
01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:35,600
Listen, I mean, the propped up stock market, all this stuff.

1987
01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:40,480
I mean, if I wanted to be a doomsday guy, I got plenty of material, but I'm not.

1988
01:20:40,480 --> 01:20:43,080
I'm just saying, watch your shit.

1989
01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:44,080
Yeah.

1990
01:20:44,080 --> 01:20:48,120
And remember what happened before in 2008.

1991
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:51,120
It could happen again, but only on steroids.

1992
01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:53,440
Because certain things are in place now.

1993
01:20:53,440 --> 01:20:56,920
This one is not one you can buy your way out of if and when it hits.

1994
01:20:56,920 --> 01:20:58,880
You can't buy your way out of debt.

1995
01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:04,960
And Americans have had, since 2008, we've had 16 years to get accustomed to getting

1996
01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:09,080
what we want, when we want, with no interruptions and no fail.

1997
01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:10,400
Absolutely.

1998
01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:14,160
And when something disrupts that, I'm really wondering how a lot of people are going to

1999
01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:15,160
be able to handle it.

2000
01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:18,840
Well, the shuffling of the cards is one of the biggest things that America does, is this

2001
01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:20,480
right here.

2002
01:21:20,480 --> 01:21:23,360
You work all your life to get this house.

2003
01:21:23,360 --> 01:21:24,360
You're doing great.

2004
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:25,600
The economy goes to shit.

2005
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:26,600
You lose that house.

2006
01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,200
The bank gets it again.

2007
01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:29,680
Then they resell it to you.

2008
01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:30,680
Yep.

2009
01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:32,480
What a fucking scam.

2010
01:21:32,480 --> 01:21:34,580
That's what most used car lots are.

2011
01:21:34,580 --> 01:21:36,480
They're not trying to sell cars.

2012
01:21:36,480 --> 01:21:37,480
They're selling loans.

2013
01:21:37,480 --> 01:21:39,480
They're selling car loans.

2014
01:21:39,480 --> 01:21:40,480
Yeah.

2015
01:21:40,480 --> 01:21:43,120
That's how they make their business, is the loan on the car.

2016
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:44,120
Yeah, yeah.

2017
01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:46,280
Because I can prove this.

2018
01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:53,120
Remember Nissan, Raytown Nissan, I think might have been the name of it, on 350 Highway and

2019
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:55,320
Blue Ridge Boulevard.

2020
01:21:55,320 --> 01:22:00,440
I saved up enough money, worked a lot of overtime and everything.

2021
01:22:00,440 --> 01:22:03,640
I had enough money to pay cash for a truck.

2022
01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:05,200
I wanted a new Pathfinder.

2023
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:07,480
Brand new just came off the shelf, Pathfinder at the time.

2024
01:22:07,480 --> 01:22:08,480
I think it's Pathfinder.

2025
01:22:08,480 --> 01:22:09,480
No, Frontier.

2026
01:22:09,480 --> 01:22:10,480
Oh yeah.

2027
01:22:10,480 --> 01:22:11,480
Frontier, not Pathfinder.

2028
01:22:11,480 --> 01:22:13,120
And I love this one.

2029
01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:15,600
I went in there, hey man, I'm ready to buy this.

2030
01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:17,040
Air winds buzzing around.

2031
01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:19,160
I got cash.

2032
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:20,360
Nobody was around anymore.

2033
01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:21,360
They all took off.

2034
01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:22,360
Yep.

2035
01:22:22,360 --> 01:22:26,480
And they only make maybe, and this isn't a lie because I know enough people in the car

2036
01:22:26,480 --> 01:22:31,560
industry, they might make a thousand off of it, but they make the money off of the loan.

2037
01:22:31,560 --> 01:22:35,200
And they can actually even take a loss if they need to to make the sale because they

2038
01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:36,480
make the money off the loan.

2039
01:22:36,480 --> 01:22:40,800
If you do the loan for long enough and with enough interest, they'll sell it to you under

2040
01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:41,800
cost.

2041
01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:42,800
Yep.

2042
01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:43,800
Yeah.

2043
01:22:43,800 --> 01:22:44,800
Yep, yep, yep.

2044
01:22:44,800 --> 01:22:45,800
Yeah, so.

2045
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:49,800
And yeah, I learned my lesson because a guy came over and he goes, yeah, the biggest

2046
01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:52,400
problem is he's there, it's what you need to do.

2047
01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:54,880
You take half that money, put it in the bank and make the payments.

2048
01:22:54,880 --> 01:23:00,040
But right now, you say, hey, I got all the money down I need and I want to buy a truck.

2049
01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:01,720
Everyone will be here.

2050
01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:06,720
Yeah, that's something that a friend of mine did in high school.

2051
01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:11,600
Excuse me, he figured out what he could spend on a monthly car payment.

2052
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:14,200
And then he just started putting that aside every month.

2053
01:23:14,200 --> 01:23:15,200
Yeah.

2054
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:17,740
And eventually had enough to buy the car.

2055
01:23:17,740 --> 01:23:21,200
So he made the payments to himself and then bought the car.

2056
01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:22,200
Yeah.

2057
01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:25,520
Instead of getting the car now and making the payments plus more.

2058
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:26,520
Yeah.

2059
01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:27,520
To the dealership.

2060
01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:28,520
Yep.

2061
01:23:28,520 --> 01:23:33,880
That's a lost artist delayed gratification, putting off the thing you want until it makes

2062
01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:34,880
more sense.

2063
01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:35,880
Well, I learned it from a coworker of mine.

2064
01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:40,880
A coworker of mine came in with a brand new vehicle one day, no payments.

2065
01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:41,880
What?

2066
01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:44,880
And he did the same thing.

2067
01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:50,360
He worked every ounce of overtime he could for two years, threw all that in the bank,

2068
01:23:50,360 --> 01:23:53,440
did not touch it, and had enough for his new car.

2069
01:23:53,440 --> 01:23:55,160
And that's basically what I did.

2070
01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:56,960
My mom bought a house that way.

2071
01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:57,960
Oh my gosh.

2072
01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:02,600
She saved up 85 grand and bought a house outright.

2073
01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:03,600
Wow.

2074
01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:06,920
Did she not have any hobbies?

2075
01:24:06,920 --> 01:24:07,920
She did after.

2076
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:11,960
After he had a house as a hobby.

2077
01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:17,400
And I think the house sold for just under $300,000.

2078
01:24:17,400 --> 01:24:19,000
Did better than the stock market.

2079
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:20,000
Yeah.

2080
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:21,000
Yeah.

2081
01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:22,000
Wow.

2082
01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:26,640
So I learned an interesting thing about Pyrex versus Pyrex.

2083
01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:32,560
Rich Mill with Pyrex, it's the glass brand that's oven safe.

2084
01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:36,560
They make big mixing cups and casserole pans.

2085
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:38,560
Yeah, they're baking stuff.

2086
01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:39,560
Basically, yeah.

2087
01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:40,560
It's glass that can handle high heat.

2088
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:41,560
Yeah, high heat glass.

2089
01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:42,560
Okay.

2090
01:24:42,560 --> 01:24:48,920
But people have noticed there's Pyrex in all capital letters and there's Pyrex in all lower

2091
01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:49,920
case letters.

2092
01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:50,920
Spelt the same?

2093
01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:51,920
Same thing, yeah.

2094
01:24:51,920 --> 01:24:52,920
P-R-Y.

2095
01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:53,920
P-Y-R-E-X.

2096
01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:54,920
P-Y-R-E-X.

2097
01:24:54,920 --> 01:25:00,160
And they are actually both the same company and made by the same company.

2098
01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:02,200
I think they would have to be with the name.

2099
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:03,200
Yeah.

2100
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:09,680
But the difference is the Pyrex with the capital letters is made of the original borosilicate

2101
01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:15,720
glass, which is really strong, tends to bounce instead of shatter, handles heat extremely

2102
01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:16,960
well.

2103
01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:22,520
And those are manufactured outside of the United States for sale outside of the United

2104
01:25:22,520 --> 01:25:23,520
States.

2105
01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:28,480
Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, all those places.

2106
01:25:28,480 --> 01:25:34,620
So they get the capital letter cup glassware with the borosilicate glass.

2107
01:25:34,620 --> 01:25:41,360
The lower case ones are the ones made in the United States for sale in the United States.

2108
01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:46,400
And they are made with cheaper soda lime glass, which isn't as good.

2109
01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:48,680
I'm familiar with soda lime, yeah.

2110
01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:54,320
So isn't that weird that it's an American company making the product here for us and

2111
01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:56,880
we get the cheap version?

2112
01:25:56,880 --> 01:25:58,560
Well that is what America does though.

2113
01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:02,760
I mean this is the Walmartization of everything.

2114
01:26:02,760 --> 01:26:07,120
I think it boils down to we would accept it so that's how they make it.

2115
01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:10,400
Yeah, where other places like it, that's garbage we don't want it.

2116
01:26:10,400 --> 01:26:13,560
So they go ahead and make the good stuff for them because they know they will reject the

2117
01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:14,560
crap stuff.

2118
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:15,560
We'd rather buy it.

2119
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:16,560
We take the crap stuff apparently.

2120
01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:17,560
Yeah.

2121
01:26:17,560 --> 01:26:19,880
I can believe it.

2122
01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:20,880
I can believe it.

2123
01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:27,320
So even an American company like Pyrex knows that they can pass off second rate shit at

2124
01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:32,360
home and sell the good stuff overseas and make money hand over fist.

2125
01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:35,040
That is so...

2126
01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:36,840
This is what America has become.

2127
01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:37,840
Make money regardless.

2128
01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:38,840
Yeah.

2129
01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:45,240
Everyone is talking about side hustles and grinding and they make all that money.

2130
01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:48,200
It's got to come from somewhere.

2131
01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:49,200
Yeah.

2132
01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:50,200
Wow.

2133
01:26:50,200 --> 01:26:57,960
And on a related note, black plastic kitchen utensils, they're everywhere.

2134
01:26:57,960 --> 01:26:59,200
Yeah, oh yeah.

2135
01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:03,960
When they were like a big thing all of a sudden black plastic kitchen utensils were everywhere.

2136
01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:04,960
Remember that?

2137
01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:08,440
Yeah, they just came out of nowhere and they use them all the time now when it used to

2138
01:27:08,440 --> 01:27:10,600
be white ones.

2139
01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:17,240
The reason that they were suddenly everywhere was because there was a huge replacement of

2140
01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:22,400
fire resistant plastics in manufacturing.

2141
01:27:22,400 --> 01:27:26,640
And so they pulled out all this old model stuff and put in the better new model stuff.

2142
01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:31,200
They're like, oh, well now we've got this old fire resistant plastic.

2143
01:27:31,200 --> 01:27:35,280
Okay, let's recycle it into kitchen utensils.

2144
01:27:35,280 --> 01:27:36,280
And that's what they did.

2145
01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:40,920
The only problem is that the chemicals they put in the plastic to make it fire retardant

2146
01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:44,560
are toxic and that's what we're getting in our food.

2147
01:27:44,560 --> 01:27:48,640
Every time you use it, every time you stir with it, you're getting some of those fire

2148
01:27:48,640 --> 01:27:53,960
retardant chemicals that were never intended for human consumption or use.

2149
01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:55,320
That happened so much.

2150
01:27:55,320 --> 01:27:57,560
It was like free material.

2151
01:27:57,560 --> 01:27:59,160
People were like giving it away.

2152
01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:02,720
It's like, take this damn black fireproof plastic.

2153
01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:04,240
We can't do anything with it.

2154
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:07,060
Oh, let's just all press them into kitchen utensils.

2155
01:28:07,060 --> 01:28:09,520
Then people will pay us for this stuff that you can't throw away.

2156
01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:11,240
They took that page from China.

2157
01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:12,240
Yeah.

2158
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:13,240
Took that page from China.

2159
01:28:13,240 --> 01:28:16,520
Turn your trash into something that you can convince people to buy.

2160
01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:18,440
Yeah, China does it perfectly.

2161
01:28:18,440 --> 01:28:19,440
They do.

2162
01:28:19,440 --> 01:28:22,520
They just looked over their shoulder at China and said, we're going to start doing that.

2163
01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:27,960
I have taken every black plastic kitchen utensil out of my kitchen and thrown it away.

2164
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:28,960
Not even in recycling.

2165
01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:31,080
I've thrown it away because it's toxic.

2166
01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:32,080
Yeah.

2167
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:33,080
So, yeah.

2168
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:37,360
If anyone's wondering, this is the douchebag section that I spoke about.

2169
01:28:37,360 --> 01:28:39,040
Yeah, we're kind of getting into...

2170
01:28:39,040 --> 01:28:40,040
Yeah, yeah.

2171
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:44,760
No, no, no, because I got a little bit of flack because you can't, like we spoke about,

2172
01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:48,520
you can't do three people on a conference call and have a successful podcast.

2173
01:28:48,520 --> 01:28:50,120
It's too much time lag.

2174
01:28:50,120 --> 01:28:51,120
Yeah.

2175
01:28:51,120 --> 01:28:54,040
You don't want to be talking all over each other because of the time lag.

2176
01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:55,040
Yeah.

2177
01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:59,680
So, this is our douchebag segment right here built in naturally to the music creeps.

2178
01:28:59,680 --> 01:29:00,680
Yeah.

2179
01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:01,680
So, there you go.

2180
01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:02,680
Yeah.

2181
01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:03,680
Yeah.

2182
01:29:03,680 --> 01:29:06,480
I think the only thing last I had... Oh, I had two more things.

2183
01:29:06,480 --> 01:29:07,480
Sorry.

2184
01:29:07,480 --> 01:29:08,480
I know I'm kind of monopolizing.

2185
01:29:08,480 --> 01:29:10,760
Well, that's all right because I got a get before a whole lot longer.

2186
01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:13,240
So, go ahead.

2187
01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:18,440
Two more things I learned on watching reaction videos.

2188
01:29:18,440 --> 01:29:24,760
One was comparing the infant mortality rate between the US and Norway.

2189
01:29:24,760 --> 01:29:30,000
And infant mortality means when the child is born, within a certain number of days it

2190
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:31,000
dies.

2191
01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:36,800
Norway has a much better success rate than the US.

2192
01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:37,800
That is insane.

2193
01:29:37,800 --> 01:29:38,800
But it's misleading.

2194
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:39,800
With our medical system.

2195
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:40,800
Oh, go ahead.

2196
01:29:40,800 --> 01:29:41,800
It's utterly misleading.

2197
01:29:41,800 --> 01:29:42,800
Okay.

2198
01:29:42,800 --> 01:29:44,840
Because here's the thing.

2199
01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:51,520
Their average citizen in Norway, in fact the vast majority of citizens in Norway are wealthy,

2200
01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:55,360
white, and Norwegian.

2201
01:29:55,360 --> 01:30:04,160
In the United States, if you compared Norway's wealthy white Norwegians to wealthy white

2202
01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:10,000
Americans, the infant mortality rate would be the same.

2203
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:12,740
It's because we have different ethnic groups.

2204
01:30:12,740 --> 01:30:14,400
We have economic disparity.

2205
01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:15,400
I get it.

2206
01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:17,320
We have less access to health.

2207
01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:18,320
That's what's making the difference.

2208
01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:19,320
You know that.

2209
01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:20,320
We are fully capable.

2210
01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:21,320
Yes.

2211
01:30:21,320 --> 01:30:30,320
That makes so much sense because we have groups that aren't as successful or have...

2212
01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:32,720
And look, I mean the reasons are all there.

2213
01:30:32,720 --> 01:30:34,800
You guys can come up with your own.

2214
01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:40,120
But we have people not being as advanced as other people and it's because of all different

2215
01:30:40,120 --> 01:30:42,320
kinds of reasons that have been going on.

2216
01:30:42,320 --> 01:30:43,320
Yeah.

2217
01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:44,320
Here's a big one.

2218
01:30:44,320 --> 01:30:49,400
Black people are still under prescribed pain medication.

2219
01:30:49,400 --> 01:30:50,520
Wow.

2220
01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:55,460
Even though they make a shit ton of money on prescription medication, the racist attitude

2221
01:30:55,460 --> 01:31:00,080
among doctors is still that black people are tougher and they can handle the pain, therefore

2222
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:03,880
they don't need the good narcotics the way the white people do.

2223
01:31:03,880 --> 01:31:06,380
That is still a thing.

2224
01:31:06,380 --> 01:31:07,380
That's insane.

2225
01:31:07,380 --> 01:31:08,380
Isn't it?

2226
01:31:08,380 --> 01:31:09,380
That's insane.

2227
01:31:09,380 --> 01:31:11,260
Racism is trumping greed.

2228
01:31:11,260 --> 01:31:14,880
I mean why wouldn't you sell them every prescription you can sell them?

2229
01:31:14,880 --> 01:31:16,840
Instead the racist attitude takes over.

2230
01:31:16,840 --> 01:31:17,840
Oh, they don't need this.

2231
01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:18,840
They're black.

2232
01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:19,840
So they don't even ask.

2233
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:20,840
No.

2234
01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:21,840
They just under prescribe.

2235
01:31:21,840 --> 01:31:22,840
They'll give them Tylenol instead of codeine.

2236
01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:23,840
Wow.

2237
01:31:23,840 --> 01:31:24,840
Isn't that nuts?

2238
01:31:24,840 --> 01:31:25,880
That is nuts.

2239
01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:32,840
So that's why the United States looks so crappy in healthcare statistics next to the rest

2240
01:31:32,840 --> 01:31:33,840
of the world.

2241
01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:36,120
It's because we're so uneven.

2242
01:31:36,120 --> 01:31:39,920
Some people get excellent care and others get virtually none.

2243
01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:42,600
So, interesting misleading.

2244
01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:43,600
So true.

2245
01:31:43,600 --> 01:31:44,600
Yeah.

2246
01:31:44,600 --> 01:31:45,600
Yeah.

2247
01:31:45,600 --> 01:31:49,920
And then the other interesting thing was it was misconceptions about the United States

2248
01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:55,400
and they were saying people from Europe come over and they expect to see Americans walking

2249
01:31:55,400 --> 01:31:58,800
down the street carrying guns all the time.

2250
01:31:58,800 --> 01:32:01,280
It's just not true.

2251
01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:05,760
I mean I can't even think of the last time I saw anybody with a gun other than a police

2252
01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:06,760
officer.

2253
01:32:06,760 --> 01:32:11,440
Last time was someone I worked with and I was out there looking at their truck and they

2254
01:32:11,440 --> 01:32:12,440
had it in there.

2255
01:32:12,440 --> 01:32:16,680
They have a conceal and carry and I go, here let me move this.

2256
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:17,680
This is my gun.

2257
01:32:17,680 --> 01:32:18,960
And he showed me something and I go, oh.

2258
01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:19,960
Yeah.

2259
01:32:19,960 --> 01:32:20,960
It's like no big deal.

2260
01:32:20,960 --> 01:32:21,960
Yeah.

2261
01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:22,960
No.

2262
01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:24,800
It wasn't a big deal because I know that it's conceal and carry and that's what he was doing

2263
01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:26,920
and I get it.

2264
01:32:26,920 --> 01:32:27,920
I get it.

2265
01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:31,680
But here's the interesting comparison.

2266
01:32:31,680 --> 01:32:39,400
If you are Swiss, a citizen of Switzerland, you are way more likely to encounter guns

2267
01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:43,160
or know how to handle guns than Americans.

2268
01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:44,600
Okay.

2269
01:32:44,600 --> 01:32:46,000
Way more likely.

2270
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:48,800
The Swiss are all about guns.

2271
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:50,520
And you know why?

2272
01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:54,920
Because everybody who's a Swiss citizen is in the military.

2273
01:32:54,920 --> 01:32:56,280
Oh.

2274
01:32:56,280 --> 01:33:00,400
When you're born a Swiss, you're in the military.

2275
01:33:00,400 --> 01:33:01,400
Yeah.

2276
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:03,640
Everybody gets military training.

2277
01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:05,040
Everybody learns how to handle firearms.

2278
01:33:05,040 --> 01:33:08,920
That's why Greece used to do that too but they don't do it anymore.

2279
01:33:08,920 --> 01:33:09,920
Yeah.

2280
01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:16,960
Switzerland takes their neutrality so seriously that if anyone tries to invade, every member,

2281
01:33:16,960 --> 01:33:22,160
every bit of the population of the country knows how to arm themselves and fight back.

2282
01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:23,760
Every single citizen.

2283
01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:26,280
Plus they have a lot of things booby trapped.

2284
01:33:26,280 --> 01:33:33,040
All the key bridges, rail yards, dams, mountain passes, tunnels, they'll blow it all up.

2285
01:33:33,040 --> 01:33:34,040
Yeah.

2286
01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:37,480
And the only way in or out of Switzerland is going to be by air.

2287
01:33:37,480 --> 01:33:39,000
Parachute drop.

2288
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:41,880
That's how seriously Switzerland takes their neutrality.

2289
01:33:41,880 --> 01:33:47,120
Say we will torch ourselves and burn ourselves to the ground before we let them take us over.

2290
01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:48,120
Unlike Ken.

2291
01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:54,080
Ken was like, hey, United States, hey, United States, come here.

2292
01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:55,080
Come here.

2293
01:33:55,080 --> 01:33:56,080
Hey.

2294
01:33:56,080 --> 01:33:57,080
Come here.

2295
01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:01,160
But isn't it interesting that nobody criticizes the Swiss?

2296
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:02,320
They don't.

2297
01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:07,320
For their stance and for having a well-armed and gun savvy population.

2298
01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:09,240
Personally, I think it's brilliant.

2299
01:34:09,240 --> 01:34:14,680
Well, it's been argued over in Greece is this right here.

2300
01:34:14,680 --> 01:34:18,640
The younger generation is more of a socialistic communist view.

2301
01:34:18,640 --> 01:34:19,640
Yeah.

2302
01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:22,080
Well, capitalism hasn't been working for Greece for a long time.

2303
01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:23,080
No, it hasn't.

2304
01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:28,360
This whole mindset took over when they quit making indoctrination two years in the army.

2305
01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:29,960
Oh, yeah.

2306
01:34:29,960 --> 01:34:30,960
Yeah.

2307
01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:35,200
They didn't have their like acclamation to this is what we do here and all that.

2308
01:34:35,200 --> 01:34:39,760
It's been argued that that led to, well, they're probably eventually going to go socialist

2309
01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:43,600
or communist because the younger generation doesn't know better.

2310
01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:51,320
I remember when I was just out of high school, my mom sponsored a brother, sister team of

2311
01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:55,960
figure skaters from Luxembourg who wanted to come over and compete, but they didn't

2312
01:34:55,960 --> 01:35:01,600
have money for a place to stay, so they stayed at our house.

2313
01:35:01,600 --> 01:35:06,440
After they'd done their thing, they were saying, oh, well, we need to go back because it's

2314
01:35:06,440 --> 01:35:07,440
my time for service.

2315
01:35:07,440 --> 01:35:08,440
It's like, what?

2316
01:35:08,440 --> 01:35:12,280
He said, oh, yeah, I do two years in the army.

2317
01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:13,280
Everybody does.

2318
01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:14,280
No exception.

2319
01:35:14,280 --> 01:35:19,600
If you're in Luxembourg, you do two years of military service when you reach a certain

2320
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:20,600
age.

2321
01:35:20,600 --> 01:35:24,200
There's no way around it unless you're just completely incapable.

2322
01:35:24,200 --> 01:35:26,560
They're a very well-off little country, too.

2323
01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:32,080
Yeah, and they're very, very, very small, so they need to have a local militia.

2324
01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:33,400
They need to have the population.

2325
01:35:33,400 --> 01:35:35,960
That's why they have to have the population be part of the army.

2326
01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:42,360
And see, that was the reason behind the Second Amendment, a well-armed militia being important

2327
01:35:42,360 --> 01:35:43,360
for the security.

2328
01:35:43,360 --> 01:35:44,360
Yeah.

2329
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:49,080
Well, people take that whole term completely different than what was meant there.

2330
01:35:49,080 --> 01:35:53,440
And it's like what the Swiss are doing and what Luxembourg is doing is this is your population.

2331
01:35:53,440 --> 01:35:56,240
This is your last line of defense.

2332
01:35:56,240 --> 01:35:59,080
Arm them and let them know how to do it.

2333
01:35:59,080 --> 01:36:04,400
So with the United States right now, I would not want everybody armed because there are

2334
01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:07,640
way too many stupid people out there.

2335
01:36:07,640 --> 01:36:12,720
So it wouldn't work here until American culture changed.

2336
01:36:12,720 --> 01:36:17,200
But I just thought it was interesting how the Swiss did it.

2337
01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:18,200
Uh-huh.

2338
01:36:18,200 --> 01:36:19,920
Yeah, you know what?

2339
01:36:19,920 --> 01:36:24,160
I mean, they have to do it the way they do it, and I think they're pretty brilliant about

2340
01:36:24,160 --> 01:36:25,160
it.

2341
01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:26,160
Yeah.

2342
01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:27,160
All right.

2343
01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:29,040
Okay, well, how long we got on this thing?

2344
01:36:29,040 --> 01:36:30,040
We got hour and a half.

2345
01:36:30,040 --> 01:36:31,040
All right.

2346
01:36:31,040 --> 01:36:32,920
Is that all the subjects you had?

2347
01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:33,920
That was everything I had.

2348
01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:34,920
All right.

2349
01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:38,400
Well, I'm good, too, so let's go ahead and call this Music Creeps a wrap.

2350
01:36:38,400 --> 01:36:39,400
All righty.

2351
01:36:39,400 --> 01:36:40,400
Thank you, everybody, for listening.

2352
01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:41,400
Go fuck yourself.

2353
01:36:41,400 --> 01:36:42,400
Bye.

2354
01:36:42,400 --> 01:36:43,400
Oh, no.

2355
01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:49,200
Looks like the show's over, kids.

2356
01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:53,640
Mark has explosive diarrhea and can't afford a wireless mic.

2357
01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:55,080
Fear not, assholes.

2358
01:36:55,080 --> 01:37:15,080
We'll be back invading your ear holes soon.
