00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000
Harambe used to listen to our original show, Two Dipchats and a Cheap Radio Shack Realistic Tape Recorder.

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Harambe does not listen to our original show, Two Dipchats and a Cheap Radio Shack Realistic Tape Recorder anymore.

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:20,000
You might ask why Harambe never listens to our original show, Two Dipchats and a Cheap Radio Shack Realistic Tape Recorder.

4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Well, it's because Harambe is dead.

5
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:28,000
Senselessly murdered because some idiot did not watch her child properly while looking on her phone.

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:36,000
Sadly, Harambe does not listen to our original show, Two Dipchats and a Cheap Radio Shack Realistic Tape Recorder, or any other show anymore.

7
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Sorry, Harambe.

8
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Somewhere in the heavens, your great Grammy Gertrude is crying because her little Bebo is listening to this film.

9
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Two Dishbags and Microphone is the only podcast available anywhere with Gusto.

10
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,000
That's right, I said Gusto.

11
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:59,000
Gusto is a magical ingredient in Schlitzbeer that makes it so damn delicious.

12
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,000
So enjoy a little Gusto with your podcast today.

13
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Yes, it's true.

14
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Mark is an old bastard.

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,000
It's also true that Mark uses a lot of ibuprofen.

16
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:20,000
But Mark would like to tell you, if you see any pictures of him roofing ibuprofen, it's obviously fake, and you're to take the pictures and tear them up immediately.

17
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Okay, I guess we are doing a combo of the Music Creeps and the Sports Bastards.

18
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,000
I think so.

19
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,000
Okay.

20
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Well, let's start off with those sports.

21
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000
I've got a couple of things I want to point out here.

22
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Oh, wait a second.

23
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Just a moment.

24
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Oh, okay.

25
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,000
All right.

26
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,000
I fixed it.

27
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,000
Okay, good.

28
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Well, do you want a beatbox because we're eventually going to go to the Music Creeps?

29
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Why not?

30
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,000
Okay.

31
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:59,000
We are the Music Creeps.

32
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,000
We are the Music Creeps.

33
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,000
We are the Music Creeps.

34
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Okay, enough.

35
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,000
There we go.

36
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Look at Sammy.

37
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,000
He's like, hey, what the hell?

38
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Yeah.

39
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Okay, I guess we're going to start off with a little football.

40
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,000
I've got a couple of things.

41
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:24,000
Yeah, football is kind of wrapping up and going into its slow time, so there's not going

42
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,000
to be a whole lot to talk about.

43
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,000
But we'll have free agency we can talk about when that comes around, the draft.

44
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:37,000
The draft ought to be a pretty good subject because, I mean, most elite teams or near

45
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,000
elite teams are like this.

46
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,000
They're going to have to draft well because of the cap.

47
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,000
They're not going to be able to attain everybody, especially with the high price of quarter

48
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,000
bats.

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:56,000
So, first thing I want to point out is the, I'm looking for the guy's name.

50
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,000
The GM for the Philadelphia Eagles.

51
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,000
Oh, yeah.

52
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,000
I don't remember his name right.

53
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Oh, here he is, Howie Roseman.

54
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000
Yeah, that sounds right.

55
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,000
Okay, Howie Roseman was nailed in the head by a full beer can.

56
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Oh, my God.

57
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000
At their parade.

58
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
Oh, that's right.

59
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,000
They had a really crazy parade.

60
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,000
That's kind of the norm anymore.

61
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,000
It's sad.

62
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,000
We have shootings that kill innocent people.

63
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Yeah.

64
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,000
I don't want to sound elitist, but we're not used to that kind of behavior in Kansas City.

65
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,000
It's like that happens elsewhere, but not here, but oh, and that's happening here.

66
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,000
The famous one is the guy that got deep-hanced by the tree.

67
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Yeah.

68
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
That was probably, I don't know if they will.

69
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,000
That was so awesome.

70
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,000
No one will ever beat that.

71
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,000
I don't think so.

72
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,000
I mean, I don't know.

73
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,000
There's a guy that ate shit in Philadelphia the first time they won the Super Bowl.

74
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,000
Oh, my God.

75
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,000
And then they grazed the light poles because people climbing.

76
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,000
I mean, so all that, but we have a guy that's deep-hanced.

77
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:01,000
So, I mean, I would have to right now rate deep-hancing by a tree as number one.

78
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,000
Yeah.

79
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Yeah, number one embarrassment.

80
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Then maybe the eating of the horse shit, then probably climbing poles.

81
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:12,000
And then this is just sad testament is the shooting.

82
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,000
Yeah.

83
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,000
I mean, one thing if doing all this crazy stuff got you the Super Bowl win, but you already got it.

84
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,000
So why are you doing the crazy stuff now?

85
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,000
It doesn't do any good.

86
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:28,000
You know, I mean, you're talking about a system like the old veteran stadium.

87
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,000
I forgot and don't even want to call them by that name.

88
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:37,000
Anyhow, I mean, it has its own judicial system inside it.

89
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,000
Yeah, most NFL stadiums have little mini jails.

90
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Oh, they do?

91
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,000
Well, okay.

92
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Well, they have a judge that tries you right there and says, well, we got you on video right there.

93
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,000
That makes sense.

94
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,000
Yeah.

95
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,000
So here's your punishment.

96
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:56,000
And if they have to be transported to another jail, so be it.

97
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,000
But if not, if they get a huge fine, you got to pay that up by the fifth.

98
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:06,000
You know, I worked at the stadium complex here in Kansas City the summer after I got out of high school.

99
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:16,000
And one of the concerts I went to there, I saw a friend of mine being led away in handcuffs to the jail that's under Royal Stadium.

100
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,000
I haven't been able to contact him since.

101
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,000
This is like 1979 and that was like almost 50 years ago.

102
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,000
Oh, shit, they killed him.

103
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,000
I don't know what the hell happened to him, but I saw them taking him away in handcuffs.

104
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,000
And that was it?

105
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Never saw him again?

106
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Never saw him again.

107
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,000
Of course, that doesn't mean he disappeared.

108
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
It just means I lost track of him.

109
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Yeah, yeah.

110
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,000
He heard that or he had a word.

111
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,000
And you know, how they have the kiss cam up.

112
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,000
Yeah.

113
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,000
Somebody, hey, that's a guy we've been looking for.

114
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:51,000
So another really kind of chilling thing about all these major sporting venues is they all have sniper nests built in.

115
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Yeah.

116
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Yeah.

117
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,000
Yeah.

118
00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:02,000
Because you never know what visiting dignitary is going to be there, so you got to be prepared to take out a lone praised gunman or somebody with a bump.

119
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:08,000
There are snipers watching you every time you go to a football game, basketball game, baseball game.

120
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,000
There's snipers watching you.

121
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,000
Wow.

122
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,000
That's creepy.

123
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000
That is creepy.

124
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,000
And you know, on the one hand, it's like, oh, they're protecting us.

125
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:23,000
On the other hand, it's like, I didn't realize coming to a sporting event was so freaking dangerous that we need snipers on hand every time.

126
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Sure.

127
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,000
That's something to think about.

128
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,000
It's that dangerous here.

129
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Maybe I shouldn't be paying $50, $75 a seat for it.

130
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Yeah, maybe not.

131
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Maybe she bill me 20 bucks a seat because it's freaking dangerous.

132
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Oh, yeah.

133
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:43,000
Well, on the sports thing, I guess, damn, I forgot his name, the owner of the Royal Sherman.

134
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:50,000
John Sherman says that he has some deal in place over a new stadium that it's going to reveal.

135
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,000
I hope it's Washington Park because we're really in that downtown if they're going to put it anywhere.

136
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:07,000
Yeah, I would really like to see baseball, the Royals baseball stadium be something that is heavily dependent on mass transit.

137
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Yes.

138
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,000
No big ass parking lots.

139
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,000
Yes.

140
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,000
Because tailgating before a baseball game really isn't a fan.

141
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,000
No, nobody cares.

142
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,000
No.

143
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:20,000
So just have parking like in the plaza or crown center or town or square.

144
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,000
And then you go up by the street cars?

145
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,000
Yeah, and then you get on the street car and it takes you right to the stadium.

146
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000
And then when you're done, you hop on the street car, it takes you right back where your car is.

147
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,000
Yeah.

148
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,000
And you don't have to pay parking.

149
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,000
That sounds great.

150
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:44,000
And also if you park at some designated lots in Brookside or in the plaza or whatever, you can dedicate more cars going down there and coming back.

151
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:49,000
And your car will be more secure in that type of area.

152
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Yeah.

153
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,000
We'll see what happens.

154
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,000
I hope they do that.

155
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,000
I hope they have a heavily mass transit.

156
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,000
Yeah.

157
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:03,000
And the reason I say that it has to be downtown is because I think if it's not downtown, we're losing them to another county.

158
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Yeah.

159
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,000
And it kind of makes sense to put them downtown because that's a central location.

160
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,000
A lot of traffic goes in and out of that area.

161
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:17,000
And again, if you had people all driving down themselves, it would be a nightmare.

162
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,000
Every single home game would be a nightmare.

163
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,000
So it's got to be mass transit.

164
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,000
And that's more revenue for our team.

165
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:30,000
So maybe we could be a little bit more competitive except every nine or ten years.

166
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:36,000
That would be nice because we all know that the baseball structure sucks and they don't care.

167
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:45,000
And whatever revenue the team loses from parking revenues, they can make up for in a kickback from the streetcars in the city.

168
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,000
Yeah.

169
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:51,000
Because the city will be happy because now they can say, look how much use our streetcars are getting.

170
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,000
Now we can build more.

171
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,000
So that makes the city happy.

172
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,000
I'm sure they'd be willing to give a kickback to the Royals.

173
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,000
Yeah.

174
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,000
There's all kinds of angles that can be taken on here.

175
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,000
So we'll see what happens.

176
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,000
I mean, I am pretty sure we're going to lose the Chiefs to Johnson County.

177
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:11,000
Johnson County has the money and they are talking about these retractable roof and all this stuff.

178
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,000
So if that's it, we're going to have to lose them to that or Wyandotte County.

179
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,000
That's the way it is.

180
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:23,000
Yeah. And seriously, the New York Giants and the New York Jets left New York for New Jersey.

181
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,000
Nobody cares.

182
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000
No, no, no, no. They still go there.

183
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Yeah.

184
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,000
They still go there.

185
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,000
So it's no big deal to move to Kansas.

186
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,000
East Rutherford.

187
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,000
It's still the Kansas City Chiefs.

188
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,000
East Rutherford is just not that far away.

189
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,000
It's just like a little skinny little bay, whatever.

190
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,000
Yeah.

191
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,000
It's not that far away from New York.

192
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,000
It's within smelling distance of the Jersey Shore.

193
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,000
Yes.

194
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,000
Where those crazy people live.

195
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Yes.

196
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,000
So that's pretty good.

197
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,000
But no, no, the Eagles GM got nailed in the head with a full beer can.

198
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:57,000
And I, okay, that never happened here because people are always scared to death.

199
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Brett Beech is going to leave.

200
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,000
Yeah.

201
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,000
Don't give him a reason.

202
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,000
Yeah. Don't give him a reason.

203
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,000
So no one would do that here.

204
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,000
But if I was, I just said his name, fucking Roseman.

205
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:16,000
If I was Roseman, I would say, all right, I want an announcement on every major newscast in the city in Philadelphia.

206
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:21,000
Gets on there and he goes, if you know who did this, turn them in.

207
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,000
If you did do it, turn yourself in.

208
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Because if not, I'm leaving.

209
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,000
The end.

210
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Yeah.

211
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,000
Yeah.

212
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,000
I can see that.

213
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:38,000
You tell the people if this is how you're going to treat me, then I don't have to have my team here.

214
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,000
Yeah. Yeah.

215
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,000
And then after that, all he's got to do is go, well, you guys figure out the punishment.

216
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Just send it to me.

217
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,000
Yeah.

218
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:52,000
I wouldn't be surprised if NFL owners started writing their name to the contracts they have with cities and their stadiums.

219
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,000
It's like, okay, if something in this category happens, then this contract is no good.

220
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,000
And I get to move any time I want to.

221
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,000
Oh, yeah.

222
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,000
We got a 10-year deal.

223
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Well, sorry.

224
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,000
The rest of the last seven years are void because somebody beat me with a beer can.

225
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,000
Yeah.

226
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,000
If that's written in the contract, then that's why it is.

227
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,000
Yeah.

228
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Yeah.

229
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Oh, well.

230
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,000
Yep.

231
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Well, I guess T. Higgins is very unhappy.

232
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,000
They're talking about franchising him again, and he does not want that.

233
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:27,000
You know, it's funny because when I initially heard about the franchise tag when they came out with it, I thought that that was a really good thing.

234
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,000
It's like, wow, you get paid the average of the top-fired players in your position.

235
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,000
That's a ton of money.

236
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:37,000
But then I realized, well, it's a one-year deal, and if you get hurt, your career is basically over.

237
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Yeah, it pisses him off.

238
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Yes.

239
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,000
You can do it one time.

240
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,000
They did it last year.

241
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Now they're going to do it again.

242
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,000
He's going to demand the trades, probably.

243
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,000
I think you can only franchise tag them twice.

244
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,000
And that's it.

245
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,000
That's it, yeah.

246
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,000
But I'm sure he is insanely pissed off.

247
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Yeah.

248
00:11:52,000 --> 00:12:04,000
And OK, I said this first all of last season that I think that Joe Burroughs speaking out against a team like he did is a sign that he is planning on being traded.

249
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,000
Yeah.

250
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,000
OK, T. Higgins doing this, they're blotting out.

251
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:15,000
Even Colin Cowhert has been saying this lately that he thinks Joe Burroughs is going to demand to be traded.

252
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Yeah, if he starts losing all the—I mean, he pointed out the other players that he thought were actually trying hard, and T. Higgins is one of them.

253
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Yes.

254
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000
If they get rid of him, then he's—I don't see what holds him there.

255
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,000
No?

256
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,000
So why would he not want to move on from there?

257
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:36,000
So I said that, and now that Cowhert's saying that, I think, you know what, there's some legitimacy to it.

258
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Yeah.

259
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,000
I was thinking that, but I wasn't sure how legitimate that was.

260
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,000
I know the Cincinnati Bengals organization is flat out denying it, but that means nothing.

261
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,000
It means absolutely nothing.

262
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,000
It means absolutely nothing.

263
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,000
No, no.

264
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,000
That's what you would expect them to say.

265
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,000
Isn't that sad that we expect them to lie to us?

266
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,000
We just—oh, well, they lied to us.

267
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Yeah, whatever.

268
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,000
Yeah, that's what they do.

269
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,000
Yeah.

270
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Yeah, they're protecting themselves.

271
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,000
How sad that we just accept that for people.

272
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,000
Oh, you're going to lie to me?

273
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,000
Okay, I still like you.

274
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,000
Yeah, that's weird as hell.

275
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,000
You're like, that sucker lied to me.

276
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,000
But people are like, oh, that's what they do.

277
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,000
Yeah.

278
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,000
It's like when the Democrats lied to us about Joe Biden's mental situation.

279
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,000
And we're all supposed to go, oh, well, that's okay.

280
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,000
We understand why you lied.

281
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Yeah.

282
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,000
No, not me.

283
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,000
No, no.

284
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,000
You lied, motherfuckers.

285
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,000
You got to pay.

286
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,000
That dude was crackers and crayons, and everybody could fucking see it.

287
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,000
And you know the Dems were all over Reagan when he got the mention in the White House.

288
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,000
Oh, yeah.

289
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,000
They're all screaming and yelling.

290
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,000
And now when it's Biden, they're like, oh, this is different.

291
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,000
Yeah.

292
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,000
The plaintiff cry of the hypocrite.

293
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,000
Oh, this is different.

294
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Face it.

295
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Both sides are equally corrupt and evil and dirty.

296
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Oh, yeah.

297
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,000
And you know what?

298
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,000
It's just pick your parasite.

299
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,000
That's true.

300
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,000
Pick your parasite.

301
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Which way do you want to get eaten alive?

302
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Yeah.

303
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,000
Okay.

304
00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:00,000
This is kind of douchebag stuff right here, and we talked about it a little bit ago.

305
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,000
Southwest is laying off like 1,700 workers, right?

306
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Mm-hmm.

307
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,000
Normally, how does a layoff happen?

308
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Flight attendants, maintenance personnel, airport.

309
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,000
The lower tier.

310
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Yeah, the people who are on the ground.

311
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,000
The grunts, if you will.

312
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,000
Yeah, the ground crews and things.

313
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Yeah.

314
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,000
Yeah.

315
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Okay.

316
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Well, this is not them.

317
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:25,000
This is some of the top people in the administration at Southwest Airlines.

318
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,000
Now, where do you think they got that idea from?

319
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,000
I think it's from Mr. Swastikaar himself.

320
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Swastikaar.

321
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Yeah.

322
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,000
Yes, I think so, too.

323
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,000
Yep.

324
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,000
They looked over and said, look at that.

325
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,000
He gutted the government, saved them a trillion dollars so far.

326
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:48,000
And they said, you know what, I think we got the same thing going on here.

327
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:54,000
Fucking Mr. Williams' brother is some sort of a made-up gimmick or something.

328
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,000
This is all a joke, you know.

329
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:01,000
Yeah, he's in charge of flight administration over Guatemala.

330
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,000
You know.

331
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:12,000
I think eventually you realize the system they've had is cut the productive employees

332
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:18,000
and make the ones you have left work harder and then keep the fat cats on the top rolling

333
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,000
in the gravy.

334
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:27,000
But somebody proposed the idea of let's take a look at what we're getting for our money.

335
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:32,000
And we're getting a whole hell of a lot more from the workers for the money we give them.

336
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:36,000
And this guy, we're giving several million a year and he's doing nothing.

337
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000
Why are we carrying his ass?

338
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,000
Exactly.

339
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,000
Yeah.

340
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,000
I guarantee you, they looked over there and said, you know what,

341
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,000
Elon Musk is not going after the ground floor people.

342
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,000
He's going after the higher ups that are waste.

343
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,000
Because that's where you pack all the fat and the waste and the greed and the corruption.

344
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,000
It's not the workforce.

345
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,000
It's management.

346
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,000
It used to be an old boy network.

347
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,000
Yeah.

348
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,000
It'd be like, well, you know what, this guy's been with the company forever.

349
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,000
We're not cutting him.

350
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,000
Well, what do you ever do for the company?

351
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,000
That doesn't matter.

352
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,000
He stayed here.

353
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,000
We've got loyalty here.

354
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,000
Yeah, loyalty here.

355
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,000
We can't do that to him.

356
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,000
Now, there's a guy down below that just bought a house and he has four kids and a wife.

357
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,000
They don't care about that.

358
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,000
No.

359
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,000
I cut that guy.

360
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,000
He's a grunt.

361
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,000
Yep.

362
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000
That kind of bullshit has to stop in America.

363
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,000
You know, we can talk about England all we want in the classes and complete bullshit.

364
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,000
Yeah.

365
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,000
We're probably worse over here.

366
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Yeah.

367
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,000
Our classes are based strictly on wealth and power.

368
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,000
Exactly.

369
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,000
England, there's a little bit of everything involved.

370
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Reading and yeah, that kind of stuff.

371
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,000
Yeah.

372
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:45,000
All that cool stuff like you're not as good as me, look at our lineage and that stuff.

373
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:51,000
This kind of situation, anybody can suddenly come into a crap ton of money and all of a

374
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,000
sudden they're important and they get to get away with stuff.

375
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,000
Oh yeah.

376
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,000
But you know, in England, I mean, I'd love to see whenever in a higher up needs a blood

377
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,000
transfusion.

378
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,000
Oh, hang on, hang on.

379
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Where did that blood come from?

380
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Oh, okay.

381
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,000
Do you have any royal blood in there anywhere?

382
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,000
Hang on, let me look through here.

383
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,000
You know what?

384
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,000
I don't want blood from any of those dirty people.

385
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,000
No, no, no, no, no.

386
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,000
I would be a commoner like them and that cannot happen.

387
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,000
Yeah.

388
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:21,000
I remember watching a show the other day about the Korean War and that was the first major

389
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:26,000
conflict to occur after the army, armed forces were integrated by Truman.

390
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,000
In World War II, there were still very much segregated units.

391
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,000
Yeah.

392
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:37,000
All the units with people of color had white officers to lead them.

393
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:41,000
But in Korea, it was just kind of everybody's everybody.

394
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:46,000
And there was a lot of pushback from the white soldiers who needed blood transfusions.

395
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,000
They wanted assurance that the blood was coming from another white person.

396
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Oh, I remember reading that.

397
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,000
Oh my gosh.

398
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,000
How fucking back ass.

399
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,000
I know.

400
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
You've got to blame the public education system for that.

401
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,000
No, exactly.

402
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,000
The public education system is the people who are promoting it.

403
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,000
The people who are promoting it.

404
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,000
They promoted these people are lesser than us.

405
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,000
Yeah.

406
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,000
It's like, well, it's just like the quarterback situation.

407
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:12,000
Now, how many African American quarterbacks do we have in the league?

408
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,000
Nobody bothers to count anymore.

409
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Exactly.

410
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,000
Nobody cares.

411
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,000
And they're somebody usher echelon.

412
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,000
And the funny, the number one guy is both.

413
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,000
He's both.

414
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,000
Yeah, this whole thing.

415
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:29,000
I mean, you know, that classism came from somewhere and it came from.

416
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:35,000
And we're worse over here because people, you know, view brunts differently than they do someone higher up.

417
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,000
And I find this remarkably refreshing.

418
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,000
I don't like anyone getting laid off.

419
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,000
Don't get me wrong.

420
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Yeah.

421
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:49,000
But I find it remarkable, remarkably refreshing that Southwest chose to look at their upper echelon and not their lower.

422
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,000
They didn't, they didn't get the brunts.

423
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,000
They didn't get the guys on the ground, the ground crew.

424
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:58,000
And let's face it right now, the way things are going in aviation, they need as many guys on the ground as they can get.

425
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,000
Yeah, they really do.

426
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,000
Yeah.

427
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,000
It was yesterday, a Delta plane landed upside down.

428
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,000
Everybody managed to survive.

429
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,000
But what's with all these planes crashing all of a sudden?

430
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,000
Well, OK, I thought of that.

431
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:19,000
And OK, first thing I thought was, OK, if you want to go real conspiracy, someone's interfering with our communications.

432
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:27,000
I've noticed that absolutely everything I have that's connected, internet connected, has started having slowdowns and glitches and failures.

433
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:33,000
And it's at a much increased rate just in the last couple of years.

434
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:37,000
Yeah. Now that is that terrorism sponsored?

435
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:41,000
Or is that too many people getting on the same grid?

436
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:42,000
It's probably both.

437
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Plus a little bit of when they told us about 5G and promised us the world they were lying their asses off and they really can't deliver and they don't have the capacity.

438
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,000
It's like when YouTube showed the football games and they kept crashing.

439
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Yeah.

440
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,000
And then what's happening is they've told us we have this great internet infrastructure, but we don't.

441
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,000
We've got crap.

442
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,000
And it's starting to show through the seams and they're still going to keep telling us, oh, it's great, it's wonderful, it's your device.

443
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,000
Don't worry about it.

444
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,000
Just buy a new device and it'll fix it.

445
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,000
Why do you think Netflix had to fight for free?

446
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Because they didn't want to issue 10,000 refunds.

447
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,000
So they're like, just give it to them for free and we're going to gauge that and fail by it.

448
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:29,000
But I'm noticing that every connected device is starting to screw up more and more and more just random weird crap.

449
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:38,000
I think it's that combined with people not being able to do an air traffic controller job correctly.

450
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,000
The dumbing down of America is finally sweeping into key positions like that.

451
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:50,000
And now, since you have a lesser education system, you have a bunch of dummies that cannot do that.

452
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,000
My uncle Mike was an air traffic controller.

453
00:20:53,000 --> 00:21:06,000
And back before 9-11, the security was less and he took me and my ex-wife down to the center in Olathe where they handle a lot of the overflying traffic.

454
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,000
There's nothing landing here or taking off from here.

455
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Pretty cool.

456
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,000
They handle the overflying stuff.

457
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,000
And it's an incredibly high pressure job.

458
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,000
You've got to have a quick mind.

459
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:22,000
You've got to remember details instantly and remember them correctly.

460
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,000
And then when you're done, you've got to be able to forget it and remember the new thing.

461
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,000
It's incredible.

462
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,000
Not everybody can do this either.

463
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,000
No, very few people can do it.

464
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,000
And the number of people who do it is getting fewer and fewer.

465
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:41,000
And I think instead of trying to train people and get smarter people to do it, they're just going to turn it over to AI.

466
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,000
Yes.

467
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,000
And that's going to be a real fucking tragedy.

468
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,000
Oh my God.

469
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Because AI could crash every airplane all at once if it wanted to.

470
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:56,000
You can't think of the Netflix movie that AI fucked up and then all the planes were crashing, all the boats were crashing.

471
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,000
Everything was ruined. Everything was just destroyed.

472
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,000
I think I saw a preview of that.

473
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:04,000
It was like this family is on the beach and this giant oil tanker is coming in.

474
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,000
It's like, oh my God, this thing isn't stopping.

475
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:07,000
Yeah.

476
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,000
Yeah.

477
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,000
I forget what that movie, too, but I remember seeing the trailer for it.

478
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,000
It was pretty freaky.

479
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000
It was a freaky movie.

480
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,000
I watched it.

481
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,000
So anyhow.

482
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:24,000
I'm wondering if the salary cap is going to get used a little differently with all the things we're talking about,

483
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,000
about franchise tagging and players wanting to trade and stuff.

484
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,000
Yeah.

485
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Because there's been a lot of times where teams have signed someone to a huge deal and then said,

486
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:42,000
well, if we need to, we'll try to restructure it later and try to get out from the salary cap implications.

487
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,000
I really think it's probably better in the team's better interest.

488
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,000
Somebody's getting arrested, aren't they?

489
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,000
I know.

490
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,000
That's the other road, isn't it? It's not that road.

491
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:54,000
No.

492
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,000
I can never, people can recognize the difference between like a fire siren and a police siren and an ambulance siren.

493
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,000
I can't tell the difference.

494
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,000
So that just sounded like police to me, but it could have been an ambulance.

495
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,000
The rhythm.

496
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,000
The rhythm's just a little bit different.

497
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,000
It must be.

498
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,000
I'm surprised you can't catch that because you're a musician.

499
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,000
I guess I've just never paid attention.

500
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,000
You will. Now that you know that, you will.

501
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,000
I'll figure it out.

502
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:17,000
But I'm thinking with a salary cap, maybe teams are going to start going, you know what?

503
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:24,000
Let's not base anything on whether or not we can restructure later because maybe we can't.

504
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:29,000
Let's give ourselves the flexibility and sign into a good deal now that we won't have to restructure.

505
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,000
And if they won't sign it, we'll move on because there are more players out there.

506
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,000
We're not going to get stuck with a Russell Wilson ever again.

507
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,000
Yeah. Yeah, exactly.

508
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,000
I mean, not to pick on Russell Wilson.

509
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000
But if you do, you trade him to Denver and get out of it.

510
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,000
And really none of that was Russell Wilson's fault because nobody had to pay him that.

511
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,000
They chose to.

512
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:52,000
Yeah, it's the Seahawks' fault for not seeing that he probably wasn't worth it anymore.

513
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,000
Yeah.

514
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,000
Just like every athlete that's taken number one overall and turns it out to be not so great,

515
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,000
it's not his fault he was picked number one.

516
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,000
It wasn't his choice.

517
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:04,000
Ryan Leaf got paid a shitload of money, although he squandered it all.

518
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:09,000
I mean, Ryan Leaf was paid a shitload of money to do nothing.

519
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,000
It's not his fault.

520
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,000
Someone offers you that much money.

521
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,000
You're like, I don't think, you don't go, I don't think I can do this.

522
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,000
It's like, where do I sign?

523
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:23,000
Yeah, if somebody offers me $100,000 to tie their shoelace, I'm going to tie their damn shoelace.

524
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Yeah, if someone offers us $100,000 to come up with a decent podcast, we'll say yes, but we probably wouldn't be able to do that.

525
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,000
Probably wouldn't be able to do that.

526
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,000
But we'll sure as hell sign that.

527
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,000
Yeah, absolutely.

528
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,000
Give me the money.

529
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,000
And another thing to remember is a lot of the most successful teams do the Tom Brady,

530
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:46,000
where you take lesser money and each year you defer a little bit more, take a little bit lesser.

531
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:51,000
That way it offsets the salary cap and having to get new people.

532
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,000
Yeah, I think we're going to have GMs that are going to be of that mindset.

533
00:24:55,000 --> 00:25:02,000
It's like, if the guy is unwilling to take less to better the team, then we don't want him because he's not a team player.

534
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,000
And we're going to pass on this awesome quarterback because we're going to have to pay him too damn much money.

535
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,000
We'll let some other team bankrupt themselves on this guy.

536
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,000
We'll just get somebody else.

537
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:16,000
Now remember, Joe Burrow is one of the guys that spoke out against Mahomes giving the sweetheart deal.

538
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,000
Yeah, he wanted Mahomes to gouge the Kansas City Chiefs.

539
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,000
Yeah, that way he could come back and gouge the Cincinnati Bengals.

540
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:28,000
So his contract may have something to do with this stuff coming to fruition before the Chiefs stuff.

541
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:35,000
And the Ravens and the Bills and people that were a little bit quicker to the game to them, they've been in the game longer.

542
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:42,000
It's too bad more players can't have Travis Kelsey's attitude of, I've got all the money I need.

543
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:48,000
I'm going to be okay, so I don't need a fat paycheck. I just want two championships.

544
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:56,000
And another thing to tell his heart is this right here. If he comes back, it's because he wants to win again.

545
00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:01,000
Because he knows he's going to water down his stats. He knows he's going to hurt his body more.

546
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:07,000
The only reason he would come back is because he wants to win another ring. His legacy is always security.

547
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:17,000
Yeah, yeah. The quote I heard from him is he's going to think about it, but he wants to make sure if he does come back that he can assure everyone he's giving it 100%.

548
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:22,000
And he's not half-assing it and he's not just kind of, well, this is all I can do.

549
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:28,000
He's basically saying if he's not capable of being 100% then he's not coming.

550
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,000
Well, I read another article, and I don't know how true this is, about the Chaser using them different too.

551
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,000
True.

552
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:39,000
Because he's older, they thought, well, we're going to use them as a block or a decoy more than anything.

553
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:44,000
So all of this may not be his fault.

554
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:53,000
Yeah, you can still tell the way he moves and runs that he's hurt and he's not as flexible and he doesn't have the resilience he used to.

555
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:58,000
But as far as how they're using him, yeah, that's not up to him.

556
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:02,000
No. And I think that that has something to do with the stats being down too.

557
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:08,000
They're like, look, we can't rely on him. Noah Gray might be able to do a little bit quicker turn around.

558
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:17,000
Or a route, or even Watson or somebody like that could maybe do it a little bit quicker because age has caught up with Travis Kelsey.

559
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,000
And don't get me wrong, he's still a hell of an athlete and still one of the best.

560
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:27,000
But the thing is, he's getting older so people will be faster.

561
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:37,000
But it's a good idea to take advantage of that little brief window of time when people are still expecting the old Kelsey, but now you're using him in a new way and it confuses them.

562
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,000
And then when they get used to Kelsey's new role, then you change it again.

563
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,000
Then like the Texans, the playoff game. Playoff?

564
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:49,000
Yeah, we always did that. He had what, 117 yards? Yeah, just blew right up.

565
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:56,000
That's a game that they used him like, hey, we think he can get open against these guys because of the scheme, so let's do it.

566
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:05,000
That's another good point is don't have him out there busting himself left and right against a team that he's really not going to be able to get open against.

567
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:13,000
Use him differently. Don't waste your time going after something that is most likely not going to work and hurt you. Fail.

568
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:21,000
Just like the Super Bowl, I thought that they should have did more pitch outs and smaller routes to Worthy.

569
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:25,000
Because Worthy was able to get open and get down the field.

570
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:31,000
I saw Jalen Hurts doing that with Saquon Barkley. He was pitching out to the flank, not really even the screen.

571
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:39,000
He was there as an outlet receiver, but just flip it out to him. He runs ahead for 5-7 yards. That's like an awesome running play.

572
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:44,000
Yeah, that game was there to be won and the Chiefs blew it. Quite simple.

573
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:52,000
There was a way to beat the Eagles, but they couldn't get their head out of their ass when the Eagles came up with something that they didn't quite know what was going on.

574
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,000
But anyhow, that's then, this is now.

575
00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:01,000
Do you want to go into the music creeps now? Sure.

576
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:09,000
There was a huge backlash of the Ozzy Sabbath, the very last act of the game.

577
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,000
Yeah, his last hurrah concert.

578
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:17,000
Well, number one, it does kind of frighten me how soon they are fast-tracking this.

579
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:27,000
The word is out that Ozzy can't walk. Per Sharon, Parkinson's is a progressive disease. It doesn't get better, it gets worse.

580
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,000
Eventually takes over your mind.

581
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:42,000
Yeah, it is a neurological illness. It's all about the brain. It's not attacking his actual body parts, it's attacking his brain. His brain is losing control of it.

582
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:50,000
And this will eventually kill him. How fast is up in the air, but I know this. No one survives Parkinson's. No.

583
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:58,000
And it's a horrible disease. It affected his legs. But he's going to do his final concert.

584
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:08,000
So, okay, they have this final concert for the fans. All the proceeds are supposed to go to Parkinson's and children's funds and stuff like that.

585
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:15,000
Maybe it is. I don't know what the administrative costs are or whatever because I do know people like Jakey Lee are going to be there.

586
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:22,000
I don't know how much capital he has to work with since evidently he doesn't have writing credits on anything and that's part of his beef.

587
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:33,000
So, I don't know, maybe Badlands sold enough and he has enough on there. I don't know. I'm sure he's probably okay. He's not horrible. He lives in Vegas.

588
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:42,000
He's not being shot. Yeah. I mean, he may not be much over a millionaire, but he's probably got seven figures on there.

589
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:53,000
Oh, I'm sure. I'm sure. Yeah. So, okay, so let's say he's barely a millionaire still. I mean, how much discretionary funds he has to fly to England and do this concert for charity.

590
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:58,000
Yeah. I would think that part of the administrative costs are getting everybody there.

591
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:07,000
Yeah. Yeah. I think that a lot of people are getting help with the airfare and help to get out of, you know, maybe they've got a commitment somewhere else they have to pay a penalty on.

592
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:16,000
So, it's like help me pay off that penalty so I can come do your thing and they get a replacement. Yeah. Yeah. So, there's all sorts of ways to do financial incentives.

593
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:27,000
So, okay, they, the astronomical ticket prices, people are pissed. They're like, you know, I want you to go pay my respects to this guy, you know, who's not going to be around forever.

594
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:36,000
He's on the very last tier of his life, obviously. They fast-tracked this show. It's going to be the original Sabbath, all of them. Now, how come I can't go?

595
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:44,000
How come I can't go because I've been a lifelong fan, supported them all my life? Yeah. Well, they got priced out of a charity event and they are pissed.

596
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:51,000
I bet. Yeah. And I don't blame them. No kidding. Yeah. I mean, you know, your lifelong fans are just being kicked in the curb.

597
00:31:51,000 --> 00:32:02,000
They can say that it's for Ozzie and a farewell. Doesn't Ozzie want to see his fans, his true fans, not the people that paid money and don't quite know who he is, but they just want to be there?

598
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Yeah. I think if Ozzie had final say on ticket prices, they wouldn't be this high. Yeah. I think that it's kind of disgraceful to do that, in my opinion.

599
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:20,000
Yeah. It's looking like a big-ass money grabbing. Yes. Especially since they moved it up to make sure they could get the money before he's unable to do the show for whatever reason.

600
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:28,000
Well, there's more coming up, so let me go to this. And you're going to be raising your eyebrow like I did too.

601
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:34,000
Okay. They now have, they added some bands, I think probably because of the outrage. Yeah.

602
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:46,000
So they now have Black Sabbath, Ozzie Solo, Guns N' Roses came aboard, which is a very huge act. I mean, you know, with all the originals except for Adler.

603
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:52,000
Didn't Steven Adler die? No, no. He might as well be. Yeah. I think they just don't want anything to do with him.

604
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:58,000
Well, he did so many drugs that he's like, yeah, he sounds, he probably had a stroke. That's what he sounds like.

605
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:12,000
So anyhow, Slayer, Pantera, which has Zach Lyall in it. What? Alice in Chains, Hailstorm, Anthrax, and Plethora, lesser known bands that I couldn't really get a shit about, but other people may like.

606
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:26,000
Yeah. Then there's going to be a super group that gets together. Okay. And this will consist of Duff McKagan slash Billy Corgan. Oh, for a Durst. Oh my God.

607
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:44,000
KK Downing. Yeah. Jake E. Lee. Wolfgang Van Halen. Yeah. Tom Morello. Oh wow. Andrew Watt. Yeah. Chad Smith. Dave Ellifson. Oh yeah. Rudy Sarzo. Sammy Hagar. Ellifson.

608
00:33:44,000 --> 00:34:01,000
See, he used to work with Megadeth. Yes. Yeah. Okay. Yep. Sammy Hagar. Wow. It's got, I'm the man, Ian. So plus more. And this goes back to see musicians that are bands that I don't really give a shit about, but some people do.

609
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Yeah. The rest of the people are that. At a certain point in that list of bands, it stops being bands that are playing there for free for the charity and it starts being bands that are paying for the privilege of being there and getting exposure. Bingo.

610
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:29,000
All those lesser known bands that you're saying you don't really care about, they're paying to be there. Yes. Yeah. Yep. They want that exposure. Yeah. It's like the entertainers that buy the halftime show from the NFL, they pay to be able to perform on that.

611
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:46,000
Yeah. And the thing with this is probably go on pay-per-view too. You know, that would be the smart thing to do is to be able to broadcast live on pay-per-view, but you got to worry about the time difference. It's going to be in London, which is six hours ahead of us. Yeah. Well, yeah. So if it goes on at 8 o'clock at night there, it's going to be 2 in the afternoon here.

612
00:34:46,000 --> 00:35:01,000
It's going to be an all day event obviously with all the names. So we'll see how they do that. That's going to be interesting. Yeah. So they may run it on the tape delay if you want, or they run it live and you want to get up early. All for the option I would think would be the smart thing to do. Yeah, I agree.

613
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:23,000
You know, one thing that I, okay, Ozzy said that he's only going to do bits and pieces of Sabbath Petunia. Yeah, not whole songs. Yeah. And we're talking about that having the melody, a medley, you know. Yeah, he's going to do that. And, you know, and probably he'll do a couple of whole solo songs if he's able to and probably a medley of them too.

614
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:40,000
And then I think it will be a lot like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Dutch where he's sitting there in a wheelchair watching other people and he's over smiling. Yeah. Yeah, seriously. I think if that's all he's able to do is just sit on stage and chair while the songs are played around him and he never makes a sound.

615
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:51,000
I think he will be all right with that. People don't care. Yeah. People just want to see him and hear his music and enjoy his last public performance. Yeah. Whatever he's able to do, it's going to be fine.

616
00:35:51,000 --> 00:36:04,000
And after this, I know he's doing all his podcasts and new songs and stuff like that. I'll bet you will not see hardly anything of him. Yeah. Whatever we'll get has already been produced. Yes. It's nothing that's going to happen from this point on. Yeah, I think so.

617
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:24,000
I did see there was a video the other day I saw on YouTube about celebrities and they've had health issues. And Ozzy was not one of the ones listed, but he was in the little preview trailer. And it was footage that somebody got of him walking down the street.

618
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:43,000
And he's leaning to the left and he's he's stumping like Frankenstein. And it looked just the way my dad walked. Yeah, because my dad had Parkinson's. And I thought, well, that's pretty mean to use that image of Ozzy as a come on to get you to watch the video.

619
00:36:43,000 --> 00:37:02,000
We spoke about this on the music creeps a little while back. And I noticed I saw that. I saw that walk. Well, unfortunately, one of my best friends, probably my best friend, Davey, his mom passed away from Parkinson's. Ozzy's face. He has Parkinson's face. Yeah.

620
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:19,000
And that's where you're you would know because your dad had it. That's where your jaw becomes square because you're clenched up because that disease is affecting the way you talk and everything. Yeah, it's kind of a grimace. Yeah, it's kind of a grimace. It's like a frozen hell.

621
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:40,000
So it sucks because he's he's in the in the advanced stages of it, I would say. So but I want to see Jakey Lee and Zach are going to be there. I'd love to see them play together. Oh, yeah. You know, two of the best known ever since Randy Rhoades can't be here.

622
00:37:40,000 --> 00:38:04,000
He's been in the great beyond since 1982. So Jakey Lee and Zach are the most prolific, most well known two guitarists that Ozzy has had. He's used other guitars and an album here or there. Yeah. Or on tour. But primarily it's been Jakey Lee and Zach Watt.

623
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:21,000
The opportunity like this to get them to play together, especially in these circumstances, you don't want to miss that opportunity. No, no. So I would love to see them both play together. Yeah. It would be great if Ozzy did a song with both of them. Oh, that would be cool. Yeah, the thing that would never happen happened.

624
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:40,000
Yeah, but as bad as I thought it was, though, evidently, according to Jakey Lee, he got a call when Zach and Ozzy were kind of button heads or something. And Ozzy is going to go a different direction. And I think this is when he hired Gus G to do that.

625
00:38:40,000 --> 00:39:08,000
I forgot to name that album. And it wasn't, it was okay. It wasn't that good. Gus G to me is an okay. He's fast. No feeling. Just goes back there. Yeah. Yeah. I'm not a big fan of his. I think his stuff is fair at best. Now you talk about musically correct and tight and talented. Yes. Yeah, but if it leaves you emotionally cold, then. Yeah, you're just going to scream is the name of it. And it's, it's horrible.

626
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:29,000
So, and then he did the downtune and stuff and not the cool stuff, the stuff that where you downtune because you don't really know what downtuning is about. Yeah. So it sounds like they were trying to capitalize on a fad at the time. They didn't really care about making songs that were last. Yeah, they like let's take advantage of this moment in time.

627
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:49,000
And some of it was settled right now. Someone came up to Ozzy and said, you got to put out now. What? Okay. We got you this new guitarist, man. You know, you know, Zach, we're getting along. Well, before they got Gus G, I believe they called Jakey Lee and Jakey Lee demanded credits for Bark at the Moon. And, and I guess Sharon said, we'll get back with you.

628
00:39:49,000 --> 00:40:14,000
That's where the big money is really is songwriting credits. Yeah. Because then you get paid every time it's played on the radio, you paid every time it's performed live. It's yeah. And all this is allegedly, this is what Jake said. According to him also, allegedly, he got held out a window like 10 stories upside down. Like vanilla ice did. Yes. Yeah.

629
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:42,000
And so, and per Sharon, that's what he said. So I mean, but he is gonna be there and Sharon's there. So maybe it was true. I don't know. So but then again, you're talking about people that sling mud at each other all the time. And then when you see them, they get along. It was kind of like how disheartened I felt when Obama and Trump were knee slapping about everything. They look like childhood best friends. Yeah. Yeah.

630
00:40:42,000 --> 00:41:11,000
So you realize what kind of show they put on for us. Yeah. Yeah. Politicians, entertainers, everybody fucking hate each other. Right. Right. That's what they want us to think. You're fucking knee slapping and he hawn at Jimmy Carter's funeral. And I'm like, okay, anyone that didn't see that ruse is an idiot. Yeah. Yeah. There's going to come a day when we realize that the two sides that we watch fighting each other are just the left and right hand to the same person. Yeah.

631
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:41,000
Yeah. Yes. And it's just been a show to distract us. Yeah. Yep. They all get what they all get their thing. And I'll get their thing. Yeah. Everybody with us is getting their cut. Yes. Yep. We're getting distracted. So we keep paying for it all. Yep. Okay. So anyhow, I don't blame anybody for being mad about the ticket prices are astronomical. And the secondary markets can be worse. It shows that they don't care about the average fan just like the Super Bowl that outprices I mean, there are some regular fans that

632
00:41:41,000 --> 00:42:10,920
can afford to go to the Super Bowl. But this sounds just ungodly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like Eagles ticket prices, you know, when they were like over $1,000. Oh, I hate them. They must think they shit gold or something. I hate the Eagles. I can't stand it. Matter of fact, I got to where I don't even like your music. My wife still likes the Eagles. And occasionally, she'll be listening to the song. And a lot of times I'll just get up and leave the room because I just can't stand them. Oh, me neither. Oh, it's

633
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:40,920
like that. That rock and roll part two. Yeah, because Gary glitter. He's such a raging unapologetic pedophile. Yeah, I can't even stand to hear that song. Yeah, he's in prison in London. He was he was let out from the last defense and petitioned and promised to be a good boy. And they said, okay, we'll allow you to have a cell phone. And with weekly checks or frequent checks. And the first time they checked,

634
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:53,440
it there was child pornography. So it's like, oh, here you go. Right back to prison. And every time he claims it's not my fault. I didn't do anything wrong. And just, you know, he never, never will admit he did anything. So I can't stand to listen to his music.

635
00:42:53,440 --> 00:43:09,440
No, me neither. And you used to hear it in all the sports venues. Now you don't hear it anywhere. It's been banned and rightfully so. I heard it like a year ago. I heard it at a family member's wedding reception. And I thought, oh, my God, don't they know what song they're playing?

636
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:24,440
They probably don't. I guess they didn't. But you know, it was a DJ and then you really most DJs know they should know you don't play that song because the guys are raging unapologetic pedophiles. And yeah, and being a pedophile is enough. But he doesn't care.

637
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:39,440
No, he's like, yeah, yeah, there's there's a number of Southeast Asian countries that refuse to let him in because he's such a threat and a danger is like, yeah, you're never getting in crossing our borders. I don't want to hear his song.

638
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:45,440
No, I don't either. So anyhow, I have some 2025 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees here.

639
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:46,440
Love it.

640
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:56,440
So, yeah, I'll take a little bit more. Thank you. Oh, yeah. Topher has like a craft full of coffee here, which is excellent.

641
00:43:56,440 --> 00:44:00,440
Yeah, it's probably just a peel of the coffee. You can always make more.

642
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:08,440
Oh, yeah. That's a good thing about coffee. You can always make more.

643
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:09,440
Thank you.

644
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:13,440
It's kind of nice sitting here doing the podcast and hearing all the traffic down the street below.

645
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:17,440
I know. It's pretty cool. Yeah. I mean, it was really nice of them to let us in here.

646
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:18,440
Yeah.

647
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:25,440
And of course, we're at the famous Rubio's at Times Square.

648
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:30,440
It's really one of the first times I've been back to New York, the state of New York, since I was born here.

649
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,440
Oh, wow. I didn't know you were born here.

650
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:33,440
Yeah, I was born in Rochester.

651
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:34,440
Okay.

652
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:48,440
And I don't really remember Rochester, but lived here, lived in Rochester until I was like two or three. And I'm told that at one point we went across the border into Canada when we visited Niagara Falls.

653
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:49,440
So you're almost Canadian.

654
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:54,440
Yeah. Well, Rochester is real close to Canada, too. It's just like right down the road from Buffalo.

655
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:55,440
Yeah, yeah, it is.

656
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,440
Yeah, it gets lake effect snow like Buffalo does.

657
00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:58,440
Yeah.

658
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:07,440
But yeah, it's just kind of weird being in New York and knowing I was born here. I don't feel like a New Yorker. I feel like a Missourian because I've lived most of my life in Kansas City.

659
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,440
I was nearly born all over the world.

660
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:10,440
Yeah.

661
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:17,440
I'm glad I was born here. So, okay, the 2025 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees are Billy Idol.

662
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:18,440
Do you like it?

663
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,440
I do, too. I think he deserves to go in.

664
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:22,440
He's such an entertainer.

665
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:23,440
Yeah.

666
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:29,440
He's going strong. He's got great voice and he's never destroyed. He's avoided controversy. I mean, it's awesome.

667
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:33,440
Yeah. I like the guy. I think he deserves in.

668
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,440
His guitar player, Steve Stevens, is pretty awesome.

669
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:36,440
He's fucking awesome.

670
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:37,440
Yeah.

671
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:42,440
They created kind of like their own genre of music. I always call it like slap punk.

672
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,440
Oh, yeah, because they're definitely a punk flair.

673
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:51,440
But it's not really punk. It's kind of like almost rockabilly, swing meets punk.

674
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:52,440
Yeah.

675
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,440
Yeah, that's a good way to describe it.

676
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,440
To me, it just sounds like slap punk, whatever the fuck that is.

677
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:04,440
And no matter what the song, it sounds like good time, fun music. It's not heavy or down. It's something you can get excited to.

678
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,440
Yeah, and he always did that mouth grid.

679
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:13,440
Oh, yeah, when you like twitch the side of his lip up, kind of like Sylvester Stallone did.

680
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:14,440
Yeah.

681
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:15,440
Only it looks better on Billy Idol.

682
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:25,440
Yeah, it looks better. And also he did that almost Elvis type of rock.

683
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,440
Oh, yeah, he had a real crooner voice when he wanted to.

684
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,440
And Pink stole his haircut.

685
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:34,440
Yeah, yes he did. It looks better on Billy Idol.

686
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:40,440
Yeah, especially since Pink is turning out to be one of Hitty's friends.

687
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:48,440
True, true. That's going to be interesting when all that comes out, but that's a whole other subject when we talk about that next.

688
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,440
Yeah, it's music so we get to talk about it.

689
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,440
Yes. Chubby Checker.

690
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,440
I like it. Yeah, he was very influential.

691
00:46:54,440 --> 00:47:01,440
Yes. I mean, he may not have had like a whole plethora of hits, but what he had is iconic.

692
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,440
Yeah, it's a good way to put it.

693
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,440
Next one, Bad Company.

694
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:10,440
Yeah, they've been on it before and they've never made it.

695
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:16,440
Really good songwriters, really just basic, simple blues-based British rock.

696
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:25,440
I mean, actually, wouldn't Paul Rodgers have a good shot at being there on his own? Maybe even better than Bad Company?

697
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:29,440
Yeah, his body of work includes Bad Company and the firm.

698
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:30,440
Free.

699
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:36,440
And he's done a few other things.

700
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,440
Paul Revere and Ray, is one of you in that?

701
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,440
I don't know, I don't know.

702
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,440
Well, anyhow, he has a big body of work.

703
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:49,440
Yeah, there's some of the else he's worked with, I'm trying to remember. I'll look it up. Yeah, his body of work is more than his Bad Company.

704
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,440
No, was it Cream? No, it was not Cream.

705
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:56,440
He's primarily a vocalist, but he can play guitar.

706
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:57,440
And piano, too.

707
00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:58,440
Yeah.

708
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:04,440
Okay, so Bad Company has been there before. I would put them in, but you know.

709
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:10,440
This next one I have no idea about, and Manna. M-A-N-A, or Manna.

710
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:12,440
I'm not familiar with Manna.

711
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,440
Alright, next. The Black Crows.

712
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:21,440
They're okay, but I don't see a whole lot of theme material out of them.

713
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:27,440
Certain people think they're the greatest band ever, and that's it. And everyone else knows them for what they are. Some band.

714
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:35,440
You know, there's another band that had a similar kind of southern soulful rock style called the Screamin' Cheetah Wheelers.

715
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:36,440
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

716
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,440
And they were so much better at it than the Black Crows were.

717
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:45,440
The Romantics were another one that kind of had that, and then there's an even better one that I can't even think of right now.

718
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:50,440
But I thought that they deserved to be in more than Black Crows. Hopefully I'll think of it.

719
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:56,440
The next one, and I don't agree with this at all, is one of the most overrated bands ever, in my opinion.

720
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,440
Oasis.

721
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:05,440
Ugh. Oh my god. If you can get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by imitating the Beatles, then you shouldn't be in anything.

722
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:08,440
And being from Liverpool, and a bad imitation at that.

723
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:18,440
Their musical knowledge put up against the Beatles would be like a square inch against a mountain.

724
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:28,440
I mean, all the influences that the Beatles had, what they did to come up with music, how they approached it, all the minds working together in different areas.

725
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,440
They're not even close.

726
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,440
It's like putting a tribute band in the Hall of Fame.

727
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:35,440
Yes.

728
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:36,440
It's stupid.

729
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:37,440
And not even a good tribute band.

730
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:42,440
No, no. They were all attitude and image, the Fighting Brothers and the Meaders.

731
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,440
I got tired of that so fast.

732
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:50,440
I'd rather have the Fighting McCartys and Lennons. McCartys and Lennons.

733
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:55,440
There's like three or four songs by Oasis that I like and I can listen to and the rest is like, no thanks.

734
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,440
But it's like, it's not left.

735
00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:58,440
No.

736
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,440
There is not a Sgt. Pepper song.

737
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:01,440
No.

738
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,440
There is not a White Album on there.

739
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:10,440
I think my favorite song by Oasis is Champagne Supernova, Where Were You When We Were Getting High.

740
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:11,440
Oh yeah, yeah.

741
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:12,440
That one's fun.

742
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,440
Wonderwall is probably my favorite.

743
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:15,440
Wonderwall, yeah.

744
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,440
There's some really good covers of Wonderwall too.

745
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,440
There's really good covers.

746
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,440
Wonderwall to me is just a ditty that hurts.

747
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:22,440
It's nothing fancy.

748
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,440
It's a very simple song.

749
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:25,440
Yeah, it is.

750
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:26,440
Very easy to play.

751
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,440
At one point I could play it.

752
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:29,440
I probably can't now.

753
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:30,440
Yeah.

754
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,440
I think it's one of those four chord songs.

755
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:34,440
I'm sure it is.

756
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:35,440
I'm sure it is.

757
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,440
It might even be three actually.

758
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:42,440
I think I saw a video where the guy was showing us four chords and they're all done right

759
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:43,440
up at the top of the neck.

760
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:44,440
Yes.

761
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:45,440
At the far end of the neck.

762
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,440
If you learn those four positions you can play Wonderwall all day.

763
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:58,440
Yeah, and that's why a lot of heavy hard rock music always gets goofed out of the room

764
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:04,440
is because a lot of that is... It doesn't mean it doesn't sound good.

765
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,440
It doesn't mean it's not a good song.

766
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:08,440
It just means that it's easy to fucking play.

767
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:09,440
Yeah.

768
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,440
Then there's the scale that death metal uses.

769
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:12,440
Are you familiar?

770
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:16,440
There's a scale that virtually every death metal song is on.

771
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:17,440
It's a scale.

772
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,440
It all sounds about the same.

773
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,440
The only difference is the rhythm you put on it.

774
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:23,440
Yeah, that's true.

775
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,440
Okay, so next would be Mariah Carey.

776
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:31,440
Not for me, but she has a big body of work.

777
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,440
Yeah, it's weird.

778
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:37,440
I wouldn't think Mariah Carey is rock and roll.

779
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:41,440
How would Christmas be without Mariah Carey in her underwear?

780
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:42,440
Better.

781
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,440
Yeah, besides that.

782
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,440
Okay, yeah, I stand corrected.

783
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,440
This next one I don't agree with at all, Outkast.

784
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:56,440
Even if I was in that genre of music, they don't have that body of work.

785
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:57,440
Yeah.

786
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:01,440
I mean, I know they're trying to get a bigger variety of people coming in, but couldn't

787
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,440
they have picked a better one?

788
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:04,440
You would think.

789
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:05,440
Yeah.

790
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,440
I looked up the seven musical modes.

791
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,440
It's not scales, it's modes.

792
00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:17,440
There's Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolodian, Aeolian, and Locrian.

793
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,440
And they all sound slightly different.

794
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:26,440
Is it death metal?

795
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:30,440
I don't know how you would look at the death metal scale.

796
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:37,440
Yeah, I'm trying to look up what's most common in different styles of music.

797
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:45,440
But somebody was noting the other day, there's like this old Alice Cooper track from 1971,

798
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:49,440
and people were complaining that they didn't know how to write music and they were just

799
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:50,440
basic and simple.

800
00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:55,440
So in this one song, Halo of Flies, they put in about three or four different modes and

801
00:52:55,440 --> 00:53:00,440
alternated between them, and it was like, there, now you can see that we can write music.

802
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:01,440
Hey, he was a Pink Floyd fan.

803
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,440
He was a Pink Floyd fan, so why wouldn't he?

804
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,440
The truth is, Alice Cooper is a very good musician.

805
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,440
Yeah, and he had a hell of a producer for that time period.

806
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,440
Oh, geez, yeah, he was.

807
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:13,440
Yeah, you're not kidding.

808
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:17,440
Okay, this next one, I agree 100%, should already be there.

809
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:18,440
And that's Soundgarden.

810
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,440
Oh, yeah, it should have been there a long time ago.

811
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:25,440
If you're me, you use the proper German pronunciation, that's Soundgarden.

812
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:30,440
No, Soundgarden should have been there a long time ago.

813
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:36,440
The best grunge band ever, without a doubt, my favorite.

814
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:39,440
Yeah, I like them better than just about anybody else.

815
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,440
I mean, like, Alice and Change really well.

816
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,440
Pearl Jam, meh.

817
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:45,440
I'm not a big Pearl Jam fan.

818
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,440
They are too U2-ish.

819
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:51,440
Yeah, their first album, 10, was pretty good.

820
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:52,440
It was good because...

821
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,440
And then after that, it just got weird.

822
00:53:54,440 --> 00:54:01,440
Yes, yeah, and they were trying to follow, in my opinion, U2's legacy about,

823
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:06,440
hey, we're gonna put out a funk album, hey, we're gonna put out a jazz album,

824
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,440
hey, this is nothing but hits, top 40.

825
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,440
I mean, to me, they should have kept the 10 formula,

826
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:15,440
and they might be up there with the rest of it.

827
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:19,440
To me, Nirvana's nice, but that's about it.

828
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:21,440
So, anyhow.

829
00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:27,440
One of the problems with Pearl Jam, in my opinion, is the drummer they had for the first couple albums,

830
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,440
David Cruz, Cruisin, and the Cruz are Cruisin.

831
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:31,440
Cruisin, I believe.

832
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:32,440
Cruisin, yeah.

833
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:34,440
Eddie Vetter didn't like him, didn't want him.

834
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,440
He wanted Jack Irons as the drummer.

835
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:42,440
And so, Cruisin was much better.

836
00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:45,440
I mean, he was an awesome drummer.

837
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,440
And then they got Dave Abreuzees in to replace him,

838
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:53,440
and he was okay, but he immediately became a major endorsement boy.

839
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:57,440
He was in every magazine, everywhere, endorsing every single little piece of equipment he used,

840
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:00,440
which pissed off Pearl Jam big time.

841
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:07,440
So then they finally ran him out of the band, and Eddie got Jack Iron in, the guy he wanted.

842
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:12,440
Except the guy has such crushing anxiety that he can't perform live.

843
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:13,440
He does okay in the studio.

844
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:14,440
Oh, I didn't know that.

845
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:19,440
Yeah, that was the problem with him, is why he didn't get in the band earlier.

846
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:23,440
Then they took him out on tour, and he lasted two or three dates and then bolted.

847
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:25,440
That's what happened to Izzy Stradlin, too.

848
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:30,440
Izzy Stradlin has stage fright so bad that he can't hardly walk out there.

849
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,440
Apparently, Barbra Streisand does, too.

850
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,440
Well, I could guess that.

851
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:39,440
She's got an amazing voice, but she used to shut up on social issues.

852
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:40,440
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

853
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,440
Well, she has by now, because no one pays attention to her.

854
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:43,440
No one cares anymore.

855
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,440
Yeah, Barbra Hoot.

856
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:49,440
She's one of these people that tried to secure their legacy by acting intelligent,

857
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:53,440
but all they did was make her look worse.

858
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:57,440
All right, the next one, Phish, with a P-H.

859
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,440
Oh my gosh, the original Jam Band.

860
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:00,440
Yeah, I mean...

861
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,440
30-minute songs.

862
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:06,440
Yeah, okay, you know what, for what they are, they were the biggest, I guess.

863
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:07,440
Yeah.

864
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:08,440
Okay.

865
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:13,440
There's a percussion shop that used to be just up the road from the Explorer's Percussion.

866
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:14,440
Yeah, I remember that.

867
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:15,440
It was owned by a friend of mine, Wes Faulkner.

868
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:16,440
On Warnel?

869
00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:17,440
Uh-huh.

870
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:22,440
I was in there one time, and one of the percussionists for Phish was in there shopping,

871
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:26,440
and he found this little teeny tiny set of bongos.

872
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:29,440
Each bongo drum was like three inches in diameter,

873
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:33,440
and you held them with two fingers and you'd go, tup-tup-tup-tup-tup-tup.

874
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:36,440
And he just thought that was the coolest thing ever, and he was buying it.

875
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,440
And after he left, Wes said, yeah, that's percussionists for Phish.

876
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:43,440
They're playing here locally tonight or next night or something.

877
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:44,440
Oh, wow.

878
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:45,440
I thought, oh, cool.

879
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,440
That was the fun thing about Explorer's.

880
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:51,440
You could run into all sorts of famous and semi-famous people there.

881
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,440
If they were in town, that's where they shopped.

882
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,440
Do you remember Wes Faulkner's place called Unique Fashions?

883
00:56:57,440 --> 00:56:58,440
Uh-huh.

884
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:01,440
Um, Jewish priests used to go in there all the time.

885
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:02,440
Yeah.

886
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:03,440
Yeah.

887
00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:06,440
Yeah, there's a number of bands, and when they come to Kansas City,

888
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,440
there were certain stores and shops they'd go to.

889
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:15,440
Unique Fashions was the, I guess it would be glam and heavy metal fashion place

890
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,440
of Kansas City and probably the Midwest.

891
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:19,440
Yeah, yeah.

892
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,440
And that guy, I forgot his name.

893
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,440
He was associated with Banshee a lot.

894
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:27,440
Was it West Fallmaker or something like that?

895
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:28,440
No, it wasn't a Banshee.

896
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,440
Wait a minute.

897
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:33,440
There's a friend of his.

898
00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:35,440
Shit, I can't remember my names from back then.

899
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,440
But anyhow, it was open down there.

900
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:38,440
It was right next to the Lone Star.

901
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:39,440
Yeah.

902
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:40,440
In a little bitty place.

903
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,440
But he used to do the fashions for like,

904
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:45,440
uh, Jewish priests during their kind of glam period, whatever.

905
00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:46,440
Yeah.

906
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,440
Um, and all these other bands he did.

907
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,440
Outfit Store, Motley Crue, stuff like that.

908
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,440
And, uh, anyhow, Jewish priests used to come in there

909
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,440
and bullshit with them all the time.

910
00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:57,440
And there was other bands too.

911
00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,440
I think Bon Jovi might have been one of them that came in there.

912
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:00,440
Oh, I can see that.

913
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,440
Yeah, bullshitting with them.

914
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:04,440
And, uh, you know, people go in there all the time

915
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,440
and they'd see somebody, you know,

916
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:08,440
I saw them on a poster.

917
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:09,440
Is that David Cobra down?

918
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:10,440
Yeah, yeah, you got me.

919
00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:11,440
Yeah.

920
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:12,440
So.

921
00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:14,440
Is John Karabi out there pretending to be somebody else?

922
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:20,440
No, that was, uh, the, uh, the guitarist for my, um.

923
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:21,440
Type O negative?

924
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:22,440
Type O negative, yeah.

925
00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:23,440
Yeah.

926
00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:25,440
I keep forgetting his fucking name though.

927
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,440
I just think it would be cool if John Karabi did the opposite.

928
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:29,440
It's like, hey, I'm the guy from type O negative.

929
00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:30,440
I know.

930
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:31,440
I wonder if he ever has.

931
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:33,440
I wonder if he even knew that happened.

932
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:34,440
Probably not.

933
00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:36,440
You know, when I went and saw John Karabi, uh,

934
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,440
in a little club, right, and I met him and talked to him for a while,

935
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,440
I forgot to tell him that story.

936
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:43,440
I was going to tell him that story.

937
00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,440
He wouldn't have been kicked out of that.

938
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:46,440
Oh, I'm sure he would have.

939
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,440
Very friendly, very accessible guy.

940
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:50,440
He's just a guy.

941
00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:51,440
Yeah.

942
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:52,440
Yeah.

943
00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:53,440
Good songwriter.

944
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:54,440
Yeah, really good songwriter.

945
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:56,440
I wish him and Mick would...

946
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:57,440
I don't know what Mick's deal is.

947
00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:00,440
He said the stuff that they released was not worth it.

948
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,440
I think the stuff that he released now is not worth it.

949
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,440
And the stuff before with Karabi was.

950
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:07,440
Oh, I love that album with Karabi on it.

951
00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:08,440
That was...

952
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,440
The one that Motley Crue is removing from all the streaming services.

953
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:14,440
It's going to be the album that never existed.

954
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:16,440
Nikki Sixx wants her baby to fucking hate him.

955
00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:17,440
Yeah.

956
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:19,440
So, anyhow, fuck him, man.

957
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,440
That was one of their best albums.

958
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:22,440
Yeah.

959
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:30,440
So, anyhow, what should have happened is when Motley Crue had stalled out like they did,

960
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:33,440
Nikki Sixx should have reached out to John Karabi and said,

961
00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:35,440
Hey, you think me, you and Mick could maybe do something?

962
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:36,440
Or maybe even Tommy too?

963
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,440
I mean, you know, well, you probably need Tommy.

964
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:39,440
Yeah.

965
00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,440
And you may or may not even need Mick.

966
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:45,440
I mean, you know, because John Karabi is a strong songwriter,

967
00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:49,440
but I think you really need Mick because Mick knows the same beat.

968
00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:50,440
Yeah.

969
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:53,440
John Karabi is good, but he doesn't have that sound.

970
00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:55,440
He doesn't have the tone Mick does.

971
00:59:55,440 --> 01:00:00,440
Yeah, yeah, you can hear that in Led Zeppelin when at a certain point

972
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:04,440
Jimmy Page quit writing the music and the bass player John Paul Jones.

973
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:05,440
Oh, no, it's John Paul Jones.

974
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:07,440
Yeah, he started writing...

975
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:10,440
He was writing them on piano.

976
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:13,440
And the whole sound of Zeppelin really changed.

977
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:14,440
Yeah.

978
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:15,440
It really did.

979
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:19,440
And how about a Robert Plant solo and he plays a lot of guitar?

980
01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:20,440
Yeah.

981
01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:21,440
And he's very good.

982
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:22,440
He has a very distinct style.

983
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:24,440
I mean, Big Log is a classic.

984
01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:26,440
Oh, that's an excellent song.

985
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:29,440
Pictures of Eleven.

986
01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:31,440
I forgot the name of the hit off of that.

987
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:32,440
Really, really interesting song.

988
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,440
You can hear some of Zeppelin's influence in it.

989
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,440
Yeah, I'm trying to remember too.

990
01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:40,440
I'm stuck on all I can think of is Big Log.

991
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:42,440
Yeah, Big Log's so good.

992
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:46,440
So Big Log is as good as anything Zeppelin has done.

993
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:49,440
It's on the same tier, at the same level.

994
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:51,440
It is such a classic.

995
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,440
He plays the majority of the guitar on it.

996
01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:57,440
And then you get up to a Manic Nirvana and Jimmy Page is playing a lot of guitar on it.

997
01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:58,440
Yes, it is.

998
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,440
He took samples, didn't he?

999
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:04,440
Yeah, they used samples and Jimmy played.

1000
01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:11,440
I think at that time, Jimmy was splitting his time between Robert Plant's solo stuff and Carbondale Page.

1001
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:17,440
Yeah, yeah, Carbondale Page would never ever get the accolades it deserves.

1002
01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:18,440
That album was brilliant.

1003
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,440
Oh, that's in heavy rotation in my car.

1004
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:23,440
Oh, I love it.

1005
01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:26,440
That is a fantastic album.

1006
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,440
And it was interesting because it was always my...

1007
01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:36,440
What I understood was, Page, not Page, but Plant and Carbondale were not friends.

1008
01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:37,440
No, I wouldn't think.

1009
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:42,440
Yeah, because Robert Plant felt like he was ripped off completely with David Coverdell.

1010
01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:46,440
And David Coverdell felt like he'd done his own thing and didn't do it.

1011
01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:49,440
I can see Coverdell's point.

1012
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:54,440
It's like, this is the voice I was born with and it sounds close to yours, but oh well, then's them's the breaks.

1013
01:01:54,440 --> 01:02:03,440
Well, yeah, and also, I mean, I don't know if it's true or not, but supposedly when Richie Blackmore was looking for a new lead singer,

1014
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:07,440
that he wanted someone like Robert Plant.

1015
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:18,440
It's like, Ian Gillan's great and all that, but I want more of a screamer, a guy with that like banshee type of a screaming voice.

1016
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:25,440
Yeah, Dory and Gillan was such a pure singer with the falsettos and the lows and everything that he could do.

1017
01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:31,440
He wanted someone that could come out and go, you know, boo, I need your love, you know.

1018
01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,440
Yeah, that raw kind of scream.

1019
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:36,440
Yes, and that's what he got with him.

1020
01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:44,440
And David Coverdell, I know him on stage, he does look like he mimics Plant.

1021
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,440
But you could say that for a million other singers too.

1022
01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:50,440
Oh yeah, yeah, I agree with that.

1023
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,440
I mean, there's a limit number of moves you can make.

1024
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:55,440
Yeah, yeah.

1025
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,440
You know, you see people making moves and it's going to creep into what you do.

1026
01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:04,440
It just kind of happens, but I think at that point people were looking for similarities between the two.

1027
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:07,440
Oh, but the whole point I was getting at is this right here.

1028
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:14,440
Does Coverdell let go, hey, when you go over there to watch, you tell him, fuck you?

1029
01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:19,440
And then Robert Plant's like, hey man, are you going to go over there and see that fucking Coverdell guy?

1030
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:21,440
Yeah, yeah, we're going to record some stuff tonight.

1031
01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:27,440
Tell him to fucking leave my shit alone, get off my bag.

1032
01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:30,440
Or was Jimmy trying to reunite them? Come on guys, come on.

1033
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:35,440
Look, Rob's having tea tonight. Do you want to come over? He said it's okay if you come over.

1034
01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:39,440
No, no, no, I don't think so. I don't think it's going to work.

1035
01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:46,440
So anyhow, alright, so Phish with a PH. Joy Division slash New Order.

1036
01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:53,440
They were kind of an important band in punk, post-punk.

1037
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:57,440
If you go by bands that are in, you'd say yeah, no issue.

1038
01:03:57,440 --> 01:04:03,440
So yeah, this next one I think should have been in a while back was Joe Cocker.

1039
01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:09,440
Oh yeah, we had a lot of people. I personally wasn't all that thrilled with him, but a lot of people were.

1040
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:16,440
No, I'm not a huge fan either, but I know a lot of people that loved him, and he had quite a few influential songs.

1041
01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:24,440
So I don't know, I don't recall him ever being up on the ballot, and I don't think he's going to make it.

1042
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:32,440
I don't think he's going to get it. He just doesn't have that kind of a swagger when you hear his name.

1043
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:36,440
It doesn't come in like oh yeah, people are like Joe Cocker, yeah, he was cool.

1044
01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:41,440
Yeah, he would have made it a lot easier 20 years ago.

1045
01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:50,440
I don't agree with this next one, only because they only really had one or two albums, The White Stripes.

1046
01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:52,440
Oh yeah.

1047
01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:55,440
No, I'm saying absolutely not.

1048
01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:59,440
I never understood why everybody was so in love with The White Stripes.

1049
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:04,440
No, this is why they're on here. So many people are in love with them. Not a popularity thing. I mean, yeah.

1050
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:06,440
I mean, not in album sales.

1051
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:11,440
Again, that's probably one that's going to draw a lot of visitors, so that's why they're on the ballot.

1052
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,440
It's because they don't increase attendance.

1053
01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:24,440
Well, this next one I agree with, and only because I think that she came out with a whole different attitude on the genre of music that was already going on.

1054
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:26,440
And that's Cyndi Lauper.

1055
01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:27,440
Oh yeah.

1056
01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:30,440
Think of her, girls just want to have fun.

1057
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:31,440
Yeah.

1058
01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:35,440
And it became colorful, happy.

1059
01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:38,440
She had Captain Lou Obano on there as her father.

1060
01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:42,440
I mean, you know, the whole thing was brilliant.

1061
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:46,440
And she brought a whole new ump to that type of the music.

1062
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:49,440
And then she followed it up with like Time After Time and some of that.

1063
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:50,440
Beautiful ballad.

1064
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:54,440
Yes. I think that she deserves to be on there and should have been on there a long time ago.

1065
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:55,440
Exactly.

1066
01:05:55,440 --> 01:06:01,440
Yeah. That's it. That's all of them. I think they kind of dissected that pretty good.

1067
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:07,440
I was just going to bring up two points of trivia. The song Girls Just Want To Have Fun.

1068
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:17,440
Cyndi Lauper has alternately admitted and then denied and then admitted back and forth whether or not the song is about masturbation.

1069
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:18,440
I didn't know that.

1070
01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:22,440
Sometimes she said, yeah, that's what it's about. Another time she's like, no, no, it's not really.

1071
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:28,440
So she goes back and forth on whether the song is about female masturbation. Girls Just Want To Have Fun.

1072
01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:29,440
Oh.

1073
01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:34,440
It's supposed to, it's the subtext is it's about women masturbating.

1074
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:36,440
Okay. Maybe so.

1075
01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:40,440
Yeah. And then the other thing I was going to mention is the Banjoi Division.

1076
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:44,440
Not many people know where they got their name.

1077
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:52,440
During World War II, the Nazi government put together this traveling brothel to take care of the soldiers.

1078
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:54,440
Smart idea.

1079
01:06:54,440 --> 01:07:04,440
They didn't just draft hookers and street walkers and o-lifes. This was like the cream of German girls.

1080
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:12,440
And it was supposed to be an honor to go out and service these young fighting men.

1081
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:21,440
And the intention was for these girls to get as pregnant as quickly as possible and as often as possible to breed lots of babies for the fatherland.

1082
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,440
Something Elon Musk has been talking about.

1083
01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:26,440
Yeah, I know he has. I know.

1084
01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:31,440
But when you start getting to what I consider borderline eugenics.

1085
01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:32,440
Yeah.

1086
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:43,440
See, the whole idea of this was they took blue-eyed blonde white girls and they were having to breed with blue-eyed blonde white guys.

1087
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:46,440
So they would have Aryan babies.

1088
01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:53,440
So it was nicknamed the Joy Division. The part of the government that was in charge of that.

1089
01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:59,440
Because there was an expression in Nazi Germany, strength through joy.

1090
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:08,440
But people modified that to say, I lost strength through joy. Meaning, I fucked so much with the Joy Division I don't have strength to fight anymore.

1091
01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:16,440
So it was started out as this monstrous ugly eugenics breeding program.

1092
01:08:16,440 --> 01:08:21,440
And then quickly became a pornographic joke within Germany.

1093
01:08:21,440 --> 01:08:26,440
So that was the idea behind that name. So it kind of gives new perspective on the band.

1094
01:08:26,440 --> 01:08:29,440
That was the name they wanted for themselves.

1095
01:08:29,440 --> 01:08:32,440
That's pretty cool. But I still say this, Spartan. They had it right.

1096
01:08:32,440 --> 01:08:36,440
If you bang your partner, you're going to really really fucking defend them.

1097
01:08:36,440 --> 01:08:48,440
Yeah, there's actually been, more often than not through history, homosexuality was encouraged in the armed forces.

1098
01:08:48,440 --> 01:08:51,440
Because that made you fight for the guy next to you even more.

1099
01:08:51,440 --> 01:08:53,440
I was just joking. I didn't know that.

1100
01:08:53,440 --> 01:08:57,440
No, no. It has only been in the last 100 to 150 years.

1101
01:08:57,440 --> 01:09:08,440
Actually really only the last 100 or so years that homosexuality in the armed forces has really been discouraged and looked down on and forcefully tried to remove.

1102
01:09:08,440 --> 01:09:13,440
But for the most of human history, no one cared.

1103
01:09:13,440 --> 01:09:18,440
In fact, they thought it was a good idea. Like you were saying, well he makes you fight for the guy next to you.

1104
01:09:18,440 --> 01:09:19,440
You banged him last night.

1105
01:09:19,440 --> 01:09:21,440
That is true. I was just joking around.

1106
01:09:21,440 --> 01:09:24,440
That is reality. That is reality.

1107
01:09:24,440 --> 01:09:30,440
Well, I mean the Spartans did it. They were pretty good at fighting.

1108
01:09:30,440 --> 01:09:32,440
Yeah, they made movies about him.

1109
01:09:32,440 --> 01:09:34,440
Yes they did.

1110
01:09:34,440 --> 01:09:41,440
Anyhow, you got some stuff you wanted to go into or did you want to talk any more about the Hall of Fame?

1111
01:09:41,440 --> 01:09:43,440
I think we got about covered there.

1112
01:09:43,440 --> 01:09:49,440
I came up with some new information on the suicide of Austin's lead singer, Brad Belk.

1113
01:09:49,440 --> 01:09:54,440
This is a guy that took charcoal briquettes.

1114
01:09:54,440 --> 01:10:00,440
Yeah, he bought a bunch of charcoal grills, the small ones, and lit them all in his apartment.

1115
01:10:00,440 --> 01:10:02,440
For carbon monoxide.

1116
01:10:02,440 --> 01:10:13,440
Yeah, and he sealed up the door and everything. In fact, he left a note on the outside of the door telling people, said, you know, this place is going to be full of carbon monoxide to protect yourself when you come in.

1117
01:10:13,440 --> 01:10:15,440
What a thoughtful suicidal person.

1118
01:10:15,440 --> 01:10:20,440
Well, we're learning a little bit more about why he chose to end his life.

1119
01:10:20,440 --> 01:10:30,440
He seemed to be kind of in a tough situation in the band. He was kind of caught in between some of the more prominent and strong personalities.

1120
01:10:30,440 --> 01:10:38,440
He was getting overruled a lot. He was getting kind of pushed around. So he wasn't really enjoying his time in Boston anymore.

1121
01:10:38,440 --> 01:10:47,440
He had a fiancee, and I'm leaving all the names out of the people because that really doesn't matter.

1122
01:10:47,440 --> 01:10:53,440
So he had this fiancee, and he wound up cheating on her and got caught.

1123
01:10:53,440 --> 01:11:01,440
So he had to, he couldn't stay with her anymore. He moved in with her sister, oddly enough.

1124
01:11:01,440 --> 01:11:08,440
And I guess so she could keep an eye on him while he learned his way back in the good graces.

1125
01:11:08,440 --> 01:11:18,440
But while he was at the sister's house, he installed a hidden camera to record the sister and her boyfriend having sex so he could watch them later.

1126
01:11:18,440 --> 01:11:19,440
Wow.

1127
01:11:19,440 --> 01:11:28,440
And they discovered the camera and confronted him with it. And they said, you've got to go tell your fiancee what you've been doing or we're going to tell her.

1128
01:11:28,440 --> 01:11:33,440
And he said, okay, give me a couple of days to gather myself and I'll go admit everything.

1129
01:11:33,440 --> 01:11:37,440
Well, he had no intention of ever telling her. That's when he decided to kill himself.

1130
01:11:37,440 --> 01:11:44,440
He was too embarrassed to tell his fiancee, I've been secretly recording your sister and your boyfriend having sex and watching them.

1131
01:11:44,440 --> 01:11:47,440
He couldn't face that, so he ended his life.

1132
01:11:47,440 --> 01:11:48,440
Wow.

1133
01:11:48,440 --> 01:11:49,440
Creepy.

1134
01:11:49,440 --> 01:11:50,440
Yeah.

1135
01:11:50,440 --> 01:11:51,440
Creepy.

1136
01:11:51,440 --> 01:11:52,440
Geez.

1137
01:11:52,440 --> 01:11:58,440
See, getting into the rock and roll business kind of fucks you up a little bit.

1138
01:11:58,440 --> 01:12:02,440
I think anyone that makes it automatically a little fucked up.

1139
01:12:02,440 --> 01:12:07,440
Yeah, I think you've got to be a little messed up to get there and then once you get there, your screw up is encouraged.

1140
01:12:07,440 --> 01:12:08,440
Yes, yeah.

1141
01:12:08,440 --> 01:12:13,440
It's like, all right, hey, let's watch this guy fall now. We built him up. That's what you do.

1142
01:12:13,440 --> 01:12:22,440
Anyway, so I have a list, speaking of death, I have a list of musicians that died in 2024.

1143
01:12:22,440 --> 01:12:23,440
Oh, okay.

1144
01:12:23,440 --> 01:12:26,440
So I thought we'd go through some of the more prominent ones.

1145
01:12:26,440 --> 01:12:30,440
Oh, I got a new death parody that's going to be on the next douchebags.

1146
01:12:30,440 --> 01:12:31,440
Oh, nice.

1147
01:12:31,440 --> 01:12:32,440
Yeah.

1148
01:12:32,440 --> 01:12:33,440
Do you watch them?

1149
01:12:33,440 --> 01:12:34,440
Yeah.

1150
01:12:34,440 --> 01:12:35,440
Listening for them.

1151
01:12:35,440 --> 01:12:36,440
Yeah.

1152
01:12:36,440 --> 01:12:37,440
How do you watch them?

1153
01:12:37,440 --> 01:12:39,440
Well, we're going to do video because evidently you got to.

1154
01:12:39,440 --> 01:12:40,440
Yeah.

1155
01:12:40,440 --> 01:12:43,440
I've got my room the way you can see the majority of the odd shit.

1156
01:12:43,440 --> 01:12:44,440
Yeah.

1157
01:12:44,440 --> 01:12:45,440
You know, so.

1158
01:12:45,440 --> 01:12:47,440
It's a little ways off, but.

1159
01:12:47,440 --> 01:12:48,440
It's coming.

1160
01:12:48,440 --> 01:12:51,440
Yeah. Maybe we can even do a double, a dual split like you here.

1161
01:12:51,440 --> 01:12:52,440
Oh, a split screen, yeah.

1162
01:12:52,440 --> 01:12:55,440
And if Rob can do it too, maybe we can do a three-way split screen.

1163
01:12:55,440 --> 01:12:56,440
That'd be cool.

1164
01:12:56,440 --> 01:12:57,440
That'd be cool.

1165
01:12:57,440 --> 01:12:58,440
Yeah, it's all possible.

1166
01:12:58,440 --> 01:13:01,440
We can do like the Brady Bunch on the Flip of the Timber Off.

1167
01:13:01,440 --> 01:13:02,440
Yeah.

1168
01:13:02,440 --> 01:13:07,440
I mean, look like I'm looking at you with my finger up. You look like you're looking at Rob with your finger up.

1169
01:13:07,440 --> 01:13:08,440
Anyhow.

1170
01:13:08,440 --> 01:13:12,440
Or it could be like that show on the NFL Network, Good Morning Football.

1171
01:13:12,440 --> 01:13:13,440
Oh, yeah.

1172
01:13:13,440 --> 01:13:17,440
They show them all in different windows on the screen, except they're sitting right next to each other in the studio.

1173
01:13:17,440 --> 01:13:18,440
Oh, I know.

1174
01:13:18,440 --> 01:13:20,440
So there's no reason to put them in different windows.

1175
01:13:20,440 --> 01:13:23,440
And then the stupid little fucking graphic shit that they do now.

1176
01:13:23,440 --> 01:13:25,440
It's like, get that out of there, man.

1177
01:13:25,440 --> 01:13:29,440
They're talking football. Don't put a little blue dinosaur on there.

1178
01:13:29,440 --> 01:13:34,440
It's like they're programming for people with the mind of a 10-year-old.

1179
01:13:34,440 --> 01:13:35,440
And they probably are.

1180
01:13:35,440 --> 01:13:36,440
Yeah, I guess so.

1181
01:13:36,440 --> 01:13:38,440
Go ahead. I'm sorry.

1182
01:13:38,440 --> 01:13:41,440
All right. David Soler.

1183
01:13:41,440 --> 01:13:42,440
Remember him?

1184
01:13:42,440 --> 01:13:44,440
Yeah, he played StarSky.

1185
01:13:44,440 --> 01:13:45,440
StarSky on StarSky and Hutch?

1186
01:13:45,440 --> 01:13:47,440
Or maybe he was Hutch. I can't remember.

1187
01:13:47,440 --> 01:13:49,440
I think he was StarSky as a blonde hair boy.

1188
01:13:49,440 --> 01:13:53,440
But he actually had a hit song, Don't Give Up on This Baby.

1189
01:13:53,440 --> 01:13:56,440
Don't give up on this baby.

1190
01:13:56,440 --> 01:13:58,440
Anyway, you can look it up.

1191
01:13:58,440 --> 01:14:00,440
But he had actually had a big hit with that.

1192
01:14:00,440 --> 01:14:01,440
I believe it.

1193
01:14:01,440 --> 01:14:02,440
So, he's musing.

1194
01:14:02,440 --> 01:14:07,440
James Kotak from the Scorpions. K-O-T-T-A-K, I'm not sure.

1195
01:14:07,440 --> 01:14:08,440
Kotak.

1196
01:14:08,440 --> 01:14:11,440
The original bassist?

1197
01:14:11,440 --> 01:14:14,440
I didn't look him up. I just saw that he was in the Scorpions.

1198
01:14:14,440 --> 01:14:16,440
Okay, any.

1199
01:14:16,440 --> 01:14:18,440
Mary Weiss, who was in the Shangri-La's.

1200
01:14:18,440 --> 01:14:21,440
That was an older group.

1201
01:14:21,440 --> 01:14:24,440
Wayne Kramer from the MC5.

1202
01:14:24,440 --> 01:14:25,440
Oh, I didn't know that.

1203
01:14:25,440 --> 01:14:29,440
Yeah, MC5 had the famous song, Kick Out the Jams, Motherfuckers.

1204
01:14:29,440 --> 01:14:31,440
Yeah, he smelled that old, wasn't he?

1205
01:14:31,440 --> 01:14:32,440
No, they were...

1206
01:14:32,440 --> 01:14:33,440
Well, he was probably...

1207
01:14:33,440 --> 01:14:35,440
If he was alive, he'd probably be in his 70s.

1208
01:14:35,440 --> 01:14:37,440
Oh, really? Okay.

1209
01:14:37,440 --> 01:14:44,440
So, yeah, when MC5 came out with Kick Out the Jams, Motherfuckers,

1210
01:14:44,440 --> 01:14:53,440
that really triggered a big surge of censorship in music and sales records and stores.

1211
01:14:53,440 --> 01:14:55,440
Watch out for us. Your friends are watching.

1212
01:14:55,440 --> 01:14:57,440
Yeah, no, I remember that.

1213
01:14:57,440 --> 01:15:01,440
Because I remember thinking, MC5's mentioned on this?

1214
01:15:01,440 --> 01:15:03,440
And then I got to doing a little bit...

1215
01:15:03,440 --> 01:15:04,440
Oh, okay, got it.

1216
01:15:04,440 --> 01:15:07,440
I think MC5 stood for Motor City Five,

1217
01:15:07,440 --> 01:15:10,440
because they're five guys in the band and they're from Detroit.

1218
01:15:10,440 --> 01:15:11,440
I believe that's true.

1219
01:15:11,440 --> 01:15:16,440
All right, Aston Family Man Barrett from Bob Marley and the Whalers.

1220
01:15:16,440 --> 01:15:17,440
Okay.

1221
01:15:17,440 --> 01:15:19,440
Toby Keith.

1222
01:15:19,440 --> 01:15:20,440
Oh, yeah, yeah, that's right.

1223
01:15:20,440 --> 01:15:21,440
Country guy.

1224
01:15:21,440 --> 01:15:22,440
Yeah, that's too bad.

1225
01:15:22,440 --> 01:15:24,440
The guy with the super low voice, or is that Trace Adkins?

1226
01:15:24,440 --> 01:15:25,440
That's Trace Adkins.

1227
01:15:25,440 --> 01:15:27,440
He did the I Love America stuff.

1228
01:15:27,440 --> 01:15:28,440
Oh, yeah.

1229
01:15:28,440 --> 01:15:32,440
I mean, he was a very likable guy, and he wasn't that old.

1230
01:15:32,440 --> 01:15:33,440
Cancer got him. Oh, my God.

1231
01:15:33,440 --> 01:15:36,440
I saw a before and after picture of that guy.

1232
01:15:36,440 --> 01:15:37,440
Yeah, I swear.

1233
01:15:37,440 --> 01:15:38,440
Indeed, yeah.

1234
01:15:38,440 --> 01:15:39,440
Yeah.

1235
01:15:39,440 --> 01:15:42,440
Henry Fambro, who was in the Spinners.

1236
01:15:42,440 --> 01:15:45,440
The Spinners was a 50s, 60s kind of band.

1237
01:15:45,440 --> 01:15:46,440
Yeah.

1238
01:15:46,440 --> 01:15:47,440
Okay.

1239
01:15:47,440 --> 01:15:49,440
Eric Carman.

1240
01:15:49,440 --> 01:15:51,440
He was the lead singer for the Razz Berries.

1241
01:15:51,440 --> 01:15:53,440
They had the hits on Go all the way.

1242
01:15:53,440 --> 01:15:54,440
Uh-huh.

1243
01:15:54,440 --> 01:15:55,440
He also had a solo career.

1244
01:15:55,440 --> 01:15:58,440
He had hits with All By Myself.

1245
01:15:58,440 --> 01:15:59,440
All by myself.

1246
01:15:59,440 --> 01:16:00,440
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1247
01:16:00,440 --> 01:16:01,440
I hate that song.

1248
01:16:01,440 --> 01:16:02,440
I do, too.

1249
01:16:02,440 --> 01:16:04,440
And he also had a hit with Hungry Eyes.

1250
01:16:04,440 --> 01:16:05,440
Yeah, I like that song.

1251
01:16:05,440 --> 01:16:06,440
Hungry Eyes.

1252
01:16:06,440 --> 01:16:09,440
Yeah, that was, I didn't know, I forgot that that was Eric Carman.

1253
01:16:09,440 --> 01:16:10,440
I forgot that was him, too.

1254
01:16:10,440 --> 01:16:15,440
I thought Hungry Eyes was by, like, I don't know, oh, shit.

1255
01:16:15,440 --> 01:16:19,440
I'm trying to think of the bands, you know, like the Bow Wow Wows.

1256
01:16:19,440 --> 01:16:22,440
Yeah, some of the more pop-y kind of bands.

1257
01:16:22,440 --> 01:16:27,440
Yeah, I forgot who I thought that was, but I remember seeing it go, wow, I forgot that

1258
01:16:27,440 --> 01:16:28,440
was Eric Carman.

1259
01:16:28,440 --> 01:16:29,440
Yeah.

1260
01:16:29,440 --> 01:16:31,440
I'll be curious, I'll even look up and see if he wrote it.

1261
01:16:31,440 --> 01:16:32,440
It didn't sound like something he'd write.

1262
01:16:32,440 --> 01:16:35,440
I don't, there might have been a band before that that did that, but anyway.

1263
01:16:35,440 --> 01:16:38,440
Yeah, it does not seem like something he would write, right?

1264
01:16:38,440 --> 01:16:39,440
No.

1265
01:16:39,440 --> 01:16:42,440
Next we have Chris Cross from Ultravox.

1266
01:16:42,440 --> 01:16:43,440
Not Christopher Cross.

1267
01:16:43,440 --> 01:16:44,440
No, no, no, Chris Cross.

1268
01:16:44,440 --> 01:16:46,440
It was different, but Chris Cross.

1269
01:16:46,440 --> 01:16:53,440
Ultravox started out as a guitar-based band, and then like a year later they were all synthesizer.

1270
01:16:53,440 --> 01:16:54,440
Yeah.

1271
01:16:54,440 --> 01:17:00,440
My oldest brother went to see them live back in the 80s, and he said number one was loud

1272
01:17:00,440 --> 01:17:07,440
as hell, and number two, the drummer had clear drums like John Bonham did, and he had strobes

1273
01:17:07,440 --> 01:17:11,440
put in all of them, and they were triggered when you would hit the drum.

1274
01:17:11,440 --> 01:17:12,440
Kind of cool.

1275
01:17:12,440 --> 01:17:16,440
And then when you hit the drum, they turned out all the lights, and it was just this wild

1276
01:17:16,440 --> 01:17:18,440
flashing strobe effect with the drummer.

1277
01:17:18,440 --> 01:17:19,440
That was amazing.

1278
01:17:19,440 --> 01:17:22,440
He said, I don't care how it sounded, it just looked cool.

1279
01:17:22,440 --> 01:17:24,440
Hey, is that a bat up there?

1280
01:17:24,440 --> 01:17:25,440
It's kind of dusk.

1281
01:17:25,440 --> 01:17:26,440
I think it is.

1282
01:17:26,440 --> 01:17:27,440
Look at that.

1283
01:17:27,440 --> 01:17:28,440
Cool.

1284
01:17:28,440 --> 01:17:29,440
Cool.

1285
01:17:29,440 --> 01:17:31,440
I went to, what was it, the Omaha Zoo?

1286
01:17:31,440 --> 01:17:32,440
Uh-huh.

1287
01:17:32,440 --> 01:17:34,440
Yeah, and they had like this big bat house.

1288
01:17:34,440 --> 01:17:36,440
Maybe it was the Portland Zoo.

1289
01:17:36,440 --> 01:17:37,440
They have a big one too.

1290
01:17:37,440 --> 01:17:38,440
No, Omaha has that too.

1291
01:17:38,440 --> 01:17:42,440
Yeah, I've been to the Omaha, and the St. Louis, and the Portland Zoos.

1292
01:17:42,440 --> 01:17:47,440
But anyways, this giant big indoor bat house, and you could look at them all hanging upside

1293
01:17:47,440 --> 01:17:48,440
down.

1294
01:17:48,440 --> 01:17:51,440
They had the lights keyed to where we could see them, they couldn't see us, so they thought

1295
01:17:51,440 --> 01:17:52,440
it was dark.

1296
01:17:52,440 --> 01:17:59,440
And I was stunned at how many of these bats were masturbating.

1297
01:17:59,440 --> 01:18:04,440
Like everywhere you looked, there was a bat with his wiener out, and he stroked him.

1298
01:18:04,440 --> 01:18:05,440
It was nuts.

1299
01:18:05,440 --> 01:18:07,440
I wonder if Batman did that.

1300
01:18:07,440 --> 01:18:10,440
I found out bats have actually really long wieners, I found out.

1301
01:18:10,440 --> 01:18:15,440
And my kids were like 10 and 8 at the time.

1302
01:18:15,440 --> 01:18:17,440
Daddy, what are they doing?

1303
01:18:17,440 --> 01:18:18,440
Shut up.

1304
01:18:18,440 --> 01:18:19,440
I told them the truth.

1305
01:18:19,440 --> 01:18:20,440
I said, well, they're playing with themselves.

1306
01:18:20,440 --> 01:18:21,440
They're playing with their penis.

1307
01:18:21,440 --> 01:18:26,440
And there was a mom next to me who gave me real dirty looks, like, well, that's the truth,

1308
01:18:26,440 --> 01:18:27,440
woman.

1309
01:18:27,440 --> 01:18:28,440
You don't lie to your kid.

1310
01:18:28,440 --> 01:18:29,440
Go somewhere else to lie to your kid.

1311
01:18:29,440 --> 01:18:30,440
I tell my kids the truth.

1312
01:18:30,440 --> 01:18:34,440
Either I don't tell them, or I tell them the truth.

1313
01:18:34,440 --> 01:18:35,440
I don't lie to my kids.

1314
01:18:35,440 --> 01:18:38,440
Look, sooner or later, they're going to be doing it too.

1315
01:18:38,440 --> 01:18:39,440
That's true.

1316
01:18:39,440 --> 01:18:42,440
Not to be gross, but you know.

1317
01:18:42,440 --> 01:18:47,440
Next up, Jerry Conway, who played with Jethro Tull and the Fairport Convention.

1318
01:18:47,440 --> 01:18:49,440
Two very different bands.

1319
01:18:49,440 --> 01:18:54,440
I just read an article, Jethro Tull was talking about Tony Iommi being in the band.

1320
01:18:54,440 --> 01:18:58,440
Turns out that the songs that he did, they didn't release.

1321
01:18:58,440 --> 01:19:03,440
So a song that I thought was his was not his, it was some other guy.

1322
01:19:03,440 --> 01:19:06,440
I hope we get to hear it someday.

1323
01:19:06,440 --> 01:19:08,440
He said nothing about that.

1324
01:19:08,440 --> 01:19:09,440
Ian Anderson.

1325
01:19:09,440 --> 01:19:11,440
He's not getting any younger either.

1326
01:19:11,440 --> 01:19:16,440
No, they got him to fill in for somebody, and then they gave him, they said you can have

1327
01:19:16,440 --> 01:19:20,440
his part, and he said, nah, he said I'm more of a Sabbath guy.

1328
01:19:20,440 --> 01:19:26,440
And he was worried about, he had his hat over his head, and he was trying to do it incognito

1329
01:19:26,440 --> 01:19:30,440
because he was going to get rimmed by the guys for being in Jethro Tull because they

1330
01:19:30,440 --> 01:19:32,440
weren't a heavy, heavy band.

1331
01:19:32,440 --> 01:19:37,440
So anyhow, it was an interesting article because I didn't realize that they considered Jethro

1332
01:19:37,440 --> 01:19:39,440
Tull like poppy then.

1333
01:19:39,440 --> 01:19:40,440
Who would have thought?

1334
01:19:40,440 --> 01:19:44,440
Yeah, some of their songs had a real folk kind of flair to them.

1335
01:19:44,440 --> 01:19:50,440
Yeah, but if you see the one video that he's in, he has his hat down and is live at somewhere.

1336
01:19:50,440 --> 01:19:52,440
But anyhow, go ahead, I'm sorry.

1337
01:19:52,440 --> 01:19:53,440
Let's see, who's that?

1338
01:19:53,440 --> 01:19:55,440
Michael Ward from the Wallflowers.

1339
01:19:55,440 --> 01:19:59,440
That was Bob Dylan's kid who had the band.

1340
01:19:59,440 --> 01:20:00,440
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

1341
01:20:00,440 --> 01:20:02,440
One head live.

1342
01:20:02,440 --> 01:20:05,440
CJ Snare from Firehouse.

1343
01:20:05,440 --> 01:20:09,440
With a name like CJ Snare, I'm guessing he's the drummer.

1344
01:20:09,440 --> 01:20:10,440
Yeah, yeah.

1345
01:20:10,440 --> 01:20:13,440
I don't know where he died from.

1346
01:20:13,440 --> 01:20:16,440
Not sure, I really didn't look these up, I just wrote down the names.

1347
01:20:16,440 --> 01:20:20,440
The guy that bothered me was 2025 John Sykes.

1348
01:20:20,440 --> 01:20:23,440
I loved his guitar work, he was so overrated.

1349
01:20:23,440 --> 01:20:30,440
Speaking of guitar, Dicky Betts, the original guitar players from the All New Brothers band.

1350
01:20:30,440 --> 01:20:32,440
He passed.

1351
01:20:32,440 --> 01:20:35,440
Jack Green from T-Rex.

1352
01:20:35,440 --> 01:20:38,440
That was the 60s band.

1353
01:20:38,440 --> 01:20:43,440
Mike Pender from the Moody Blues.

1354
01:20:43,440 --> 01:20:45,440
I think he was a keyboard player.

1355
01:20:45,440 --> 01:20:46,440
I think so, yeah.

1356
01:20:46,440 --> 01:20:47,440
And a songwriter.

1357
01:20:47,440 --> 01:20:50,440
Yeah, he came up with some good shit.

1358
01:20:50,440 --> 01:20:53,440
The Moody Blues had some really awesome tunes.

1359
01:20:53,440 --> 01:20:56,440
Not every song on the album is going to be a winner.

1360
01:20:56,440 --> 01:20:59,440
Some of them were pretty mellow and out there.

1361
01:20:59,440 --> 01:21:01,440
The ones that hit were really, really good.

1362
01:21:01,440 --> 01:21:08,440
They were kind of out there in the way Yes was out there, but Moody Blues didn't go in for the musicianship that Yes did.

1363
01:21:08,440 --> 01:21:12,440
They were more steady and mellow and lots of strings.

1364
01:21:12,440 --> 01:21:16,440
Knights of White Satin would be one that most people would recognize in Moody Blues.

1365
01:21:16,440 --> 01:21:20,440
But they have so much stuff that people probably heard but don't know it was them.

1366
01:21:20,440 --> 01:21:23,440
Yeah, yeah, because their songs can sound very different.

1367
01:21:23,440 --> 01:21:25,440
Like, that's Moody Blues? I had no idea.

1368
01:21:25,440 --> 01:21:27,440
And then you go, that's Moody Blues, too.

1369
01:21:27,440 --> 01:21:36,440
They were very versatile, but they were, like you said, they didn't do the different pieces of the musicianship that Yes, but they were kind of in that category.

1370
01:21:36,440 --> 01:21:38,440
Would you call them frog-on?

1371
01:21:38,440 --> 01:21:39,440
Yeah, I think so.

1372
01:21:39,440 --> 01:21:43,440
I think so, too, in a different type of way.

1373
01:21:43,440 --> 01:21:47,440
Dwayne Eddy, rock and roll guitarist from the late 50s and 60s.

1374
01:21:47,440 --> 01:21:54,440
He had a couple of hits, but mostly he was part of that surf rock and roll and rockabilly kind of sound.

1375
01:21:54,440 --> 01:21:56,440
Like Dick Dale or something?

1376
01:21:56,440 --> 01:21:57,440
Dick Dale?

1377
01:21:57,440 --> 01:21:58,440
That's a good one.

1378
01:21:58,440 --> 01:22:00,440
Yeah, okay, Eddie Al.

1379
01:22:00,440 --> 01:22:01,440
Oh, shit, sorry.

1380
01:22:01,440 --> 01:22:04,440
Richard Tandy from ELO. He was a keyboard player.

1381
01:22:04,440 --> 01:22:06,440
Oh, wow, that's too bad. I like him.

1382
01:22:06,440 --> 01:22:10,440
Yeah, I remember, you know, Richard Tandy, what is he, does he own Radio Shack?

1383
01:22:10,440 --> 01:22:12,440
Yeah, yeah, yes.

1384
01:22:12,440 --> 01:22:19,440
Because I keep thinking of, you know, the two nutbags with the cheap Tandy recorder.

1385
01:22:19,440 --> 01:22:24,440
Yeah, yeah, two dip shits with the cheap, but I did re-record that and now it's a realistic.

1386
01:22:24,440 --> 01:22:27,440
Yeah, I like the new version of that.

1387
01:22:27,440 --> 01:22:33,440
And I put in another two dip shits with a cheap radio-listic tape recorder.

1388
01:22:33,440 --> 01:22:38,440
I put in an extra one of them just for effect, just to piss everybody off even a little bit more.

1389
01:22:38,440 --> 01:22:44,440
All right, John Barbata, he was with the Turtles, CSN, and Jefferson Airplane.

1390
01:22:44,440 --> 01:22:45,440
Oh, that's where I remember him.

1391
01:22:45,440 --> 01:22:46,440
I remember him to Jefferson Airplane.

1392
01:22:46,440 --> 01:22:49,440
Yeah, I do too. The rest I don't know.

1393
01:22:49,440 --> 01:22:53,440
Dennis Machine Gun Thompson, also of the MC5.

1394
01:22:53,440 --> 01:22:54,440
Wow, they had a bad year, didn't they?

1395
01:22:54,440 --> 01:22:57,440
Yeah, they did.

1396
01:22:57,440 --> 01:23:01,440
John Hawken from the Nashville Teens and the Straubs. I've heard of the Straubs.

1397
01:23:01,440 --> 01:23:04,440
I have too, the Nashville Teens, not so much.

1398
01:23:04,440 --> 01:23:08,440
Randy Fuller from the Bobby Fuller Four. I grew up with them.

1399
01:23:08,440 --> 01:23:10,440
I'm not familiar at all, but...

1400
01:23:10,440 --> 01:23:12,440
Charlie Collin from Train.

1401
01:23:12,440 --> 01:23:13,440
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1402
01:23:13,440 --> 01:23:14,440
Drops of Jupiter.

1403
01:23:14,440 --> 01:23:15,440
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1404
01:23:15,440 --> 01:23:20,440
Yeah, I guess Drops of Jupiter was like the big one.

1405
01:23:20,440 --> 01:23:24,440
Yeah, the song I like best of them is called Ordinary.

1406
01:23:24,440 --> 01:23:25,440
Ordinary.

1407
01:23:25,440 --> 01:23:29,440
It's sort of the Spider-Man soundtrack. Oh, I love that song.

1408
01:23:29,440 --> 01:23:30,440
Yeah, that's good.

1409
01:23:30,440 --> 01:23:37,440
And then the other one I think was called Drops of Jupiter and that was pretty much the love song type of thing.

1410
01:23:37,440 --> 01:23:38,440
Yeah.

1411
01:23:38,440 --> 01:23:39,440
Yeah.

1412
01:23:39,440 --> 01:23:40,440
Hey, how are you?

1413
01:23:40,440 --> 01:23:43,440
John Wasaki from Stained.

1414
01:23:43,440 --> 01:23:44,440
Wow.

1415
01:23:44,440 --> 01:23:46,440
Yeah, he was a younger guy.

1416
01:23:46,440 --> 01:23:47,440
Yeah.

1417
01:23:47,440 --> 01:23:52,440
Betty Dragstra from Pussycat. I got to look her up.

1418
01:23:52,440 --> 01:23:56,440
I don't recall how she looked, but I do recall Pussycat.

1419
01:23:56,440 --> 01:24:02,440
Yeah. Joe Egan from Steeler's Wheel. They had the hit Stuck in the Middle with You.

1420
01:24:02,440 --> 01:24:03,440
Stuck in the Middle with You.

1421
01:24:03,440 --> 01:24:07,440
If you've ever seen Reservoir Dogs, there's a very famous scene that plays that song.

1422
01:24:07,440 --> 01:24:09,440
I got to watch that movie again.

1423
01:24:09,440 --> 01:24:13,440
Every time I hear that song, that's all I think about is that scene with Joe. Is that Mr. Blonde?

1424
01:24:13,440 --> 01:24:14,440
Yeah.

1425
01:24:14,440 --> 01:24:15,440
Yeah.

1426
01:24:15,440 --> 01:24:19,440
Oh, and speaking of that, there's some really good scenes in The Landman.

1427
01:24:19,440 --> 01:24:25,440
Oh, yeah. I earmarked that podcast after you mentioned it to me.

1428
01:24:25,440 --> 01:24:26,440
Yeah, yeah.

1429
01:24:26,440 --> 01:24:27,440
That's going to be interesting.

1430
01:24:27,440 --> 01:24:35,440
Yeah. I think it's on Amazon on Prime, but I think you can probably get it maybe through

1431
01:24:35,440 --> 01:24:38,440
hopefully Hulu or I don't know.

1432
01:24:38,440 --> 01:24:40,440
I found a Google podcast.

1433
01:24:40,440 --> 01:24:42,440
Google podcast. Okay.

1434
01:24:42,440 --> 01:24:45,440
David Loggins from Loggins and Messina.

1435
01:24:45,440 --> 01:24:46,440
Oh, okay. Cool.

1436
01:24:46,440 --> 01:24:49,440
They had some hits back in the early 70s.

1437
01:24:49,440 --> 01:24:52,440
Abdul Duqe Thaqir from The Four Tops.

1438
01:24:52,440 --> 01:24:57,440
Boy, a lot of musicians died. I remember The Four Tops. They were very influential. Good.

1439
01:24:57,440 --> 01:24:59,440
Jack Russell from Great White.

1440
01:24:59,440 --> 01:25:00,440
Yeah, yeah.

1441
01:25:00,440 --> 01:25:01,440
He passed away.

1442
01:25:01,440 --> 01:25:03,440
Greg Kin from The Greg Kin Band.

1443
01:25:03,440 --> 01:25:05,440
Oh, uh-uh, uh-uh.

1444
01:25:05,440 --> 01:25:06,440
They did not.

1445
01:25:06,440 --> 01:25:08,440
They don't write them like that anymore.

1446
01:25:08,440 --> 01:25:09,440
Our Love's in Jeopardy.

1447
01:25:09,440 --> 01:25:12,440
Yeah, and then there's another one that did that too.

1448
01:25:12,440 --> 01:25:18,440
Yeah. Yeah, I can't remember this other one. I know Weird Al did a version of Our Love's in Jeopardy.

1449
01:25:18,440 --> 01:25:20,440
We lost on Jeopardy, baby.

1450
01:25:20,440 --> 01:25:23,440
That was pretty awesome. It was one of those early ones.

1451
01:25:23,440 --> 01:25:25,440
Yeah, the one was called Rock Kin Song.

1452
01:25:25,440 --> 01:25:27,440
Yeah. Yeah.

1453
01:25:27,440 --> 01:25:29,440
There's the uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh.

1454
01:25:29,440 --> 01:25:30,440
Yeah.

1455
01:25:30,440 --> 01:25:33,440
But then there was Jeopardy and there's one more hit song.

1456
01:25:33,440 --> 01:25:34,440
There's another one, yeah.

1457
01:25:34,440 --> 01:25:35,440
Oh, well.

1458
01:25:35,440 --> 01:25:36,440
Um.

1459
01:25:36,440 --> 01:25:37,440
They were good. I liked them.

1460
01:25:37,440 --> 01:25:39,440
Yeah, I really did too.

1461
01:25:39,440 --> 01:25:45,440
Sergio Mendez. Jazz piano, keyboard, singer, percussionist, composer, arranger.

1462
01:25:45,440 --> 01:25:48,440
He was monstrous in the jazz scene.

1463
01:25:48,440 --> 01:25:49,440
You've heard of Herb Albert?

1464
01:25:49,440 --> 01:25:50,440
Yeah.

1465
01:25:50,440 --> 01:25:51,440
Herb Albert and the T. Warner brass.

1466
01:25:51,440 --> 01:25:52,440
Albert, yeah.

1467
01:25:52,440 --> 01:25:53,440
Yeah, he was heavily involved with them.

1468
01:25:53,440 --> 01:25:55,440
Oh, okay. All right.

1469
01:25:55,440 --> 01:25:59,440
Kenny Heislop from Slick and Simple Minds.

1470
01:25:59,440 --> 01:26:01,440
Don't you forget about him?

1471
01:26:01,440 --> 01:26:02,440
Yeah. Yeah.

1472
01:26:02,440 --> 01:26:03,440
Yeah.

1473
01:26:03,440 --> 01:26:05,440
Made famous by a couple of movies.

1474
01:26:05,440 --> 01:26:06,440
Yeah.

1475
01:26:06,440 --> 01:26:08,440
Tito Jackson from The Jackson Five.

1476
01:26:08,440 --> 01:26:10,440
Oh yeah, I forgot. Tito got it too.

1477
01:26:10,440 --> 01:26:11,440
Yeah.

1478
01:26:11,440 --> 01:26:17,440
JD Souther, singer, songwriter. He worked with the Eagles and Linda Ronstadt primarily.

1479
01:26:17,440 --> 01:26:18,440
Okay.

1480
01:26:18,440 --> 01:26:25,440
He co-wrote the Eagles songs Best of My Love, Victim of Love, Heartache Tonight, You Kid

1481
01:26:25,440 --> 01:26:28,440
in Town. He helped write all those hits.

1482
01:26:28,440 --> 01:26:29,440
Wow.

1483
01:26:29,440 --> 01:26:37,440
Yeah. So he was way better at being a behind the scenes guy and songwriter than he was.

1484
01:26:37,440 --> 01:26:40,440
He still did some solo stuff. He went out and played by himself.

1485
01:26:40,440 --> 01:26:42,440
I consider Victim of Love one of their better songs.

1486
01:26:42,440 --> 01:26:43,440
Yeah.

1487
01:26:43,440 --> 01:26:44,440
Okay, good.

1488
01:26:44,440 --> 01:26:45,440
Yeah, awesome.

1489
01:26:45,440 --> 01:26:46,440
Yeah.

1490
01:26:46,440 --> 01:26:48,440
Dick Diamond from the Easy Beats.

1491
01:26:48,440 --> 01:26:49,440
Okay.

1492
01:26:49,440 --> 01:26:51,440
That was another 60s band.

1493
01:26:51,440 --> 01:26:52,440
Okay.

1494
01:26:52,440 --> 01:26:58,440
Nick Gravanites from Big Brother and the Holding Company. That was Janis Joplin's original

1495
01:26:58,440 --> 01:26:59,440
band.

1496
01:26:59,440 --> 01:27:00,440
Oh, okay.

1497
01:27:00,440 --> 01:27:04,440
See, the first two albums came out. The first one was called Big Brother and the Holding

1498
01:27:04,440 --> 01:27:09,440
Company. The second was called Cheap Thrills. And Janis Joplin was just a member of the

1499
01:27:09,440 --> 01:27:10,440
band.

1500
01:27:10,440 --> 01:27:11,440
Okay.

1501
01:27:11,440 --> 01:27:17,440
The second one, Cheap Thrills, had the song Piece of My Heart, which was a monster hit.

1502
01:27:17,440 --> 01:27:22,440
And at that point, she was convinced by the record company to go solo and hire up a whole

1503
01:27:22,440 --> 01:27:26,440
different backup band, which instead of calling Big Brother and Holding Company, it was the

1504
01:27:26,440 --> 01:27:27,440
Full Tilt Bookie Band.

1505
01:27:27,440 --> 01:27:28,440
Okay.

1506
01:27:28,440 --> 01:27:34,440
But they didn't have the soul that Big Brother did. Anyway, Nick Gravanites was one of the

1507
01:27:34,440 --> 01:27:37,440
three people hired to replace Janis Joplin.

1508
01:27:37,440 --> 01:27:38,440
Okay.

1509
01:27:38,440 --> 01:27:42,440
And then they put out another singer named Kathy Hall and then another guitar player.

1510
01:27:42,440 --> 01:27:45,440
So they put out two more albums and then quit.

1511
01:27:45,440 --> 01:27:46,440
Oh, okay.

1512
01:27:46,440 --> 01:27:49,440
He was in Big Brother after Janis left.

1513
01:27:49,440 --> 01:27:51,440
Okay, but he wasn't enduring...

1514
01:27:51,440 --> 01:27:58,440
He wrote a song for her called Breakdown of the Blues or something, but she never got

1515
01:27:58,440 --> 01:28:03,440
a chance to record it before she died. So Big Brother included it as an instrumental

1516
01:28:03,440 --> 01:28:10,440
version on one of their albums. And then years later in 1982 or threes, somebody included

1517
01:28:10,440 --> 01:28:15,440
it on a Janis Joplin compilation or tribute album or something.

1518
01:28:15,440 --> 01:28:16,440
Okay.

1519
01:28:16,440 --> 01:28:19,440
Again, she never recorded it, but...

1520
01:28:19,440 --> 01:28:23,440
Who's next? Roger Palm, the drummer for ABBA.

1521
01:28:23,440 --> 01:28:25,440
Oh, yeah.

1522
01:28:25,440 --> 01:28:31,440
Interesting thing. I saw a show the other day about... Remember the blonde girl in ABBA?

1523
01:28:31,440 --> 01:28:32,440
Yeah.

1524
01:28:32,440 --> 01:28:38,440
When she was older, like in her 60s, she had a stalker. Except she fell in love with her

1525
01:28:38,440 --> 01:28:41,440
stalker and he invited him to move in.

1526
01:28:41,440 --> 01:28:42,440
Wow.

1527
01:28:42,440 --> 01:28:45,440
And he eventually caused all sorts of trouble.

1528
01:28:45,440 --> 01:28:47,440
Oh, I bet he did.

1529
01:28:47,440 --> 01:28:51,440
Yeah. Chris Christopherson died last year.

1530
01:28:51,440 --> 01:28:52,440
That was last year?

1531
01:28:52,440 --> 01:28:53,440
That was last year.

1532
01:28:53,440 --> 01:28:54,440
Okay.

1533
01:28:54,440 --> 01:28:57,440
It must have been at the first of the... I don't know. Wow.

1534
01:28:57,440 --> 01:29:01,440
Martin Lee from Brotherhood of Man. I remember then from the 60s.

1535
01:29:01,440 --> 01:29:03,440
Yeah, yeah.

1536
01:29:03,440 --> 01:29:08,440
Sissy Houston, who's a soul and gospel singer. She worked with Elvis Presley.

1537
01:29:08,440 --> 01:29:09,440
Okay.

1538
01:29:09,440 --> 01:29:10,440
She passed away.

1539
01:29:10,440 --> 01:29:13,440
Alan Mansfield from the band Dragon.

1540
01:29:13,440 --> 01:29:14,440
Uh-huh.

1541
01:29:14,440 --> 01:29:16,440
Liam Payne from One Direction.

1542
01:29:16,440 --> 01:29:18,440
Paul Diano from Iron Maiden.

1543
01:29:18,440 --> 01:29:22,440
Oh, yeah, yeah. I remember that. Yeah. He had cancer too, I believe.

1544
01:29:22,440 --> 01:29:24,440
Yeah. A lot of guys in Iron Maiden got cancer.

1545
01:29:24,440 --> 01:29:25,440
Uh-huh.

1546
01:29:25,440 --> 01:29:29,440
Didn't the drummer get cancer too? Or is the vocalist Bruce Dickinson?

1547
01:29:29,440 --> 01:29:31,440
The vocalist, Bruce Dickinson.

1548
01:29:31,440 --> 01:29:37,440
Yeah. Okay. I was thinking of... I think R.E.M.'s drummer had brain cancer.

1549
01:29:37,440 --> 01:29:39,440
Yeah, he did. He did.

1550
01:29:39,440 --> 01:29:41,440
Yeah. He came back from it.

1551
01:29:41,440 --> 01:29:44,440
Jack Jones, who was a 60s crooner.

1552
01:29:44,440 --> 01:29:45,440
Uh-huh.

1553
01:29:45,440 --> 01:29:48,440
Phil Lesh of The Grateful Dead.

1554
01:29:48,440 --> 01:29:51,440
Legendary music producer Quincy Jones.

1555
01:29:51,440 --> 01:29:52,440
Uh-huh.

1556
01:29:52,440 --> 01:29:56,440
Everybody has at least heard at least one Quincy Jones.

1557
01:29:56,440 --> 01:30:00,440
Dennis Byron, who worked with Amen Corner and the Bee Gees.

1558
01:30:00,440 --> 01:30:01,440
Uh-huh.

1559
01:30:01,440 --> 01:30:04,440
Colin Peterson, who worked with the Bee Gees.

1560
01:30:04,440 --> 01:30:08,440
And Bob Breyer from My Chemical Romance.

1561
01:30:08,440 --> 01:30:10,440
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1562
01:30:10,440 --> 01:30:14,440
So, that's what I got from musicians who passed away in 19...

1563
01:30:14,440 --> 01:30:17,440
I mean, in 19... in 2024.

1564
01:30:17,440 --> 01:30:18,440
Okay.

1565
01:30:18,440 --> 01:30:25,440
And I came up with the number one song on this date

1566
01:30:25,440 --> 01:30:28,440
as of February 18th.

1567
01:30:28,440 --> 01:30:34,440
The number one song on this date in 1970 was by Sly and the Family Stone,

1568
01:30:34,440 --> 01:30:39,440
who incidentally has a new drama documentary on Hulu.

1569
01:30:39,440 --> 01:30:40,440
Oh, they do?

1570
01:30:40,440 --> 01:30:41,440
Yeah.

1571
01:30:41,440 --> 01:30:42,440
Okay.

1572
01:30:42,440 --> 01:30:44,440
But the song was called Thank You.

1573
01:30:44,440 --> 01:30:48,440
And the whole version is, Thank You for Letting Me Be Myself Again.

1574
01:30:48,440 --> 01:30:50,440
And he spells it all phonetically.

1575
01:30:50,440 --> 01:30:52,440
I wanna thank you.

1576
01:30:52,440 --> 01:30:53,440
That's cool.

1577
01:30:53,440 --> 01:30:55,440
Be myself.

1578
01:30:55,440 --> 01:31:00,440
Anyway, it's spelled, Fletten me be mice elf again.

1579
01:31:00,440 --> 01:31:02,440
That's how he spelled it.

1580
01:31:02,440 --> 01:31:03,440
So...

1581
01:31:03,440 --> 01:31:04,440
That's how he sang it.

1582
01:31:04,440 --> 01:31:06,440
That way you would definitely sing it right.

1583
01:31:06,440 --> 01:31:10,440
So, moving forward five years to 1975,

1584
01:31:10,440 --> 01:31:14,440
the number one song was Pick Up the Pieces by Average White Band.

1585
01:31:14,440 --> 01:31:15,440
Oh, wow.

1586
01:31:15,440 --> 01:31:16,440
I remember that song.

1587
01:31:16,440 --> 01:31:17,440
I do, too.

1588
01:31:17,440 --> 01:31:18,440
Yeah, it was all right.

1589
01:31:18,440 --> 01:31:19,440
Yeah.

1590
01:31:19,440 --> 01:31:21,440
All right, Jump Head five years more to 1980,

1591
01:31:21,440 --> 01:31:23,440
this crazy little thing called Blood by Queen.

1592
01:31:23,440 --> 01:31:24,440
Oh, yeah, yep.

1593
01:31:24,440 --> 01:31:26,440
That was a big mess, yeah.

1594
01:31:26,440 --> 01:31:31,440
1985, Careless Whisper by Wham!

1595
01:31:31,440 --> 01:31:32,440
Wham!

1596
01:31:32,440 --> 01:31:33,440
Wow.

1597
01:31:33,440 --> 01:31:34,440
Wow.

1598
01:31:34,440 --> 01:31:35,440
Geez.

1599
01:31:35,440 --> 01:31:37,440
It shows you the progression of music, doesn't it?

1600
01:31:37,440 --> 01:31:40,440
Yeah, what's popular with the majority of people.

1601
01:31:40,440 --> 01:31:41,440
Yeah.

1602
01:31:41,440 --> 01:31:43,440
It really changed.

1603
01:31:43,440 --> 01:31:48,440
1990, Opposites Attract by Paula Abdul with The Wild Pair.

1604
01:31:48,440 --> 01:31:49,440
Wow.

1605
01:31:49,440 --> 01:31:50,440
Not rock and roll anymore.

1606
01:31:50,440 --> 01:31:55,440
Was that like the MC Scat Cat video, was it, or something like that?

1607
01:31:55,440 --> 01:31:56,440
I think so.

1608
01:31:56,440 --> 01:31:57,440
Yeah.

1609
01:31:57,440 --> 01:32:01,440
And then 1985, it was Preep, but not Radiohead.

1610
01:32:01,440 --> 01:32:02,440
It was TLC.

1611
01:32:02,440 --> 01:32:03,440
Oh, wow.

1612
01:32:03,440 --> 01:32:04,440
Different song.

1613
01:32:04,440 --> 01:32:05,440
Yeah, completely different song.

1614
01:32:05,440 --> 01:32:06,440
Yeah.

1615
01:32:06,440 --> 01:32:12,440
And then after that point, you started getting songs that weren't really anything even related

1616
01:32:12,440 --> 01:32:14,440
to rock and roll anymore.

1617
01:32:14,440 --> 01:32:16,440
It was all pop and...

1618
01:32:16,440 --> 01:32:17,440
R&B or whatever.

1619
01:32:17,440 --> 01:32:18,440
Yeah, it's funny.

1620
01:32:18,440 --> 01:32:20,440
R&B, Rhythm and Blues.

1621
01:32:20,440 --> 01:32:22,440
There's nothing about the blues in it.

1622
01:32:22,440 --> 01:32:23,440
No, no, no.

1623
01:32:23,440 --> 01:32:24,440
Not a thing.

1624
01:32:24,440 --> 01:32:27,440
I have more respect for them calling it urban than Rhythm and Blues.

1625
01:32:27,440 --> 01:32:29,440
Yeah, it's a really misleading name.

1626
01:32:29,440 --> 01:32:30,440
It is.

1627
01:32:30,440 --> 01:32:31,440
Yep.

1628
01:32:31,440 --> 01:32:32,440
So...

1629
01:32:32,440 --> 01:32:35,440
And then that's what I got there.

1630
01:32:35,440 --> 01:32:43,440
And then all I got left is whenever you want to do it is Music Creek Storytime.

1631
01:32:43,440 --> 01:32:44,440
Oh, okay.

1632
01:32:44,440 --> 01:32:46,440
Do you want to get to that here in Lebanon?

1633
01:32:46,440 --> 01:32:47,440
Sure.

1634
01:32:47,440 --> 01:32:48,440
I got a couple of things.

1635
01:32:48,440 --> 01:32:49,440
Okay.

1636
01:32:49,440 --> 01:32:56,440
Okay, if you could only listen to ten bands the rest of your life, what would they be?

1637
01:32:56,440 --> 01:32:57,440
Wow.

1638
01:32:57,440 --> 01:32:58,440
I know.

1639
01:32:58,440 --> 01:33:03,440
All right, well, we've got to put down Alice Cooper.

1640
01:33:03,440 --> 01:33:05,440
Yep.

1641
01:33:05,440 --> 01:33:06,440
Chris Isaac.

1642
01:33:06,440 --> 01:33:18,440
I'm going to put Monster Magnet in there.

1643
01:33:18,440 --> 01:33:27,440
Pink Floyd.

1644
01:33:27,440 --> 01:33:30,440
Gordon Lightfoot.

1645
01:33:30,440 --> 01:33:34,440
That's five.

1646
01:33:34,440 --> 01:33:36,440
Wow.

1647
01:33:36,440 --> 01:33:38,440
I know this is kind of tough, isn't it?

1648
01:33:38,440 --> 01:33:39,440
It is.

1649
01:33:39,440 --> 01:33:43,440
I guess I'll throw Elton John in there because I grew up listening to a lot of that.

1650
01:33:43,440 --> 01:33:45,440
There's some songs in there I really enjoy.

1651
01:33:45,440 --> 01:33:50,440
My sister was a huge Elton John fan, so she brought every album he put out, so I got to

1652
01:33:50,440 --> 01:33:52,440
listen to them for free.

1653
01:33:52,440 --> 01:33:54,440
That's cool.

1654
01:33:54,440 --> 01:33:59,440
Gosh, who else do I listen to?

1655
01:33:59,440 --> 01:34:05,440
I'm kind of stalled out at six.

1656
01:34:05,440 --> 01:34:06,440
Huh.

1657
01:34:06,440 --> 01:34:11,440
Well, I'll think of some more.

1658
01:34:11,440 --> 01:34:22,440
I guess I'll put my music list in there and see what's on my music list.

1659
01:34:22,440 --> 01:34:23,440
Oh, Soundgarden.

1660
01:34:23,440 --> 01:34:24,440
Soundgarden, me going.

1661
01:34:24,440 --> 01:34:33,440
Yeah, they got some songs I definitely would want to hear again.

1662
01:34:33,440 --> 01:34:37,440
There's another really good one.

1663
01:34:37,440 --> 01:34:40,440
Maybe Alice in Chains.

1664
01:34:40,440 --> 01:34:41,440
Yeah.

1665
01:34:41,440 --> 01:34:43,440
I'll put Alice in Chains.

1666
01:34:43,440 --> 01:34:47,440
I'll put it too.

1667
01:34:47,440 --> 01:34:51,440
That'd be funny if there was a person named Alice in Chains.

1668
01:34:51,440 --> 01:34:54,440
Alice in Chains.

1669
01:34:54,440 --> 01:34:56,440
Hi, I'm Alice in Chains.

1670
01:34:56,440 --> 01:34:59,440
This is my brother Justin, Justin Case.

1671
01:34:59,440 --> 01:35:09,440
I think for a while people thought it was a spoof on Alice Cooper, but it had nothing

1672
01:35:09,440 --> 01:35:10,440
to do with Alice Cooper.

1673
01:35:10,440 --> 01:35:11,440
No.

1674
01:35:11,440 --> 01:35:12,440
I'm not sure how they got their name.

1675
01:35:12,440 --> 01:35:13,440
I'm not sure either.

1676
01:35:13,440 --> 01:35:16,440
I'm sure I could probably look it up, but I don't care enough to right now.

1677
01:35:16,440 --> 01:35:23,440
I remember getting confused when there's musician Alice Cooper, but there was also a keyboard

1678
01:35:23,440 --> 01:35:29,440
player musician named Al Cooper who was spelled with a K. And I thought, is this the same

1679
01:35:29,440 --> 01:35:30,440
person?

1680
01:35:30,440 --> 01:35:33,440
Just kind of changed his name and then I realized, no, it's a totally different person.

1681
01:35:33,440 --> 01:35:34,440
Yeah.

1682
01:35:34,440 --> 01:35:38,440
And there was one time when Al Cooper appeared on an Alice Cooper album and I was like, okay,

1683
01:35:38,440 --> 01:35:43,440
this is really freaky.

1684
01:35:43,440 --> 01:35:50,440
Yeah, Al Cooper and Alice Cooper.

1685
01:35:50,440 --> 01:35:52,440
I'm stuck at eight now.

1686
01:35:52,440 --> 01:35:54,440
I've got nine.

1687
01:35:54,440 --> 01:35:57,440
Let me hear yours and see if I can steal one.

1688
01:35:57,440 --> 01:35:58,440
Okay, Black Sabbath.

1689
01:35:58,440 --> 01:36:01,440
Oh, I got my last one.

1690
01:36:01,440 --> 01:36:02,440
Deep Purple.

1691
01:36:02,440 --> 01:36:05,440
Oh yeah, that's a good one.

1692
01:36:05,440 --> 01:36:06,440
Ozzy.

1693
01:36:06,440 --> 01:36:08,440
Alice in Chains.

1694
01:36:08,440 --> 01:36:10,440
Soundgarden.

1695
01:36:10,440 --> 01:36:12,440
Kiss.

1696
01:36:12,440 --> 01:36:13,440
Alice Cooper.

1697
01:36:13,440 --> 01:36:17,440
Van Halen, all the DLR and three Sammy Hagar songs.

1698
01:36:17,440 --> 01:36:20,440
Van Halen, I forgot about that.

1699
01:36:20,440 --> 01:36:22,440
Styx and Pink Floyd.

1700
01:36:22,440 --> 01:36:23,440
Yeah.

1701
01:36:23,440 --> 01:36:25,440
Yeah, Styx is a good one.

1702
01:36:25,440 --> 01:36:30,440
Yeah, Styx is one of the bands that I could listen to all different eras of them and that's

1703
01:36:30,440 --> 01:36:31,440
what I was thinking.

1704
01:36:31,440 --> 01:36:32,440
Yeah.

1705
01:36:32,440 --> 01:36:36,440
There's some that I'm forgetting, but right on the spot, I'm only really thinking of Hard

1706
01:36:36,440 --> 01:36:37,440
Rock right here.

1707
01:36:37,440 --> 01:36:42,440
There's so many other ones that I could go into, but I'm just leaving it right there for

1708
01:36:42,440 --> 01:36:43,440
now.

1709
01:36:43,440 --> 01:36:44,440
Yeah.

1710
01:36:44,440 --> 01:36:46,440
If you ask me tomorrow, I'd probably come up with a slightly different list.

1711
01:36:46,440 --> 01:36:47,440
Me too.

1712
01:36:47,440 --> 01:36:50,440
You got anything else that you want to add to it?

1713
01:36:50,440 --> 01:36:51,440
Gosh.

1714
01:36:51,440 --> 01:36:52,440
Maybe ELO.

1715
01:36:52,440 --> 01:36:57,440
I mean, a lot of the music is pretty simple, but it's just nice.

1716
01:36:57,440 --> 01:37:03,440
Is there one I could scratch off?

1717
01:37:03,440 --> 01:37:05,440
Like their album.

1718
01:37:05,440 --> 01:37:12,440
I'm scratching off Alice in Chains and putting an ELO.

1719
01:37:12,440 --> 01:37:13,440
All right.

1720
01:37:13,440 --> 01:37:15,440
That album they had Out of the Blue.

1721
01:37:15,440 --> 01:37:16,440
Incredible.

1722
01:37:16,440 --> 01:37:18,440
Oh, I love that.

1723
01:37:18,440 --> 01:37:19,440
Amazing.

1724
01:37:19,440 --> 01:37:20,440
Awesome concert too.

1725
01:37:20,440 --> 01:37:25,440
The concert from that, the 1977, is available on YouTube if you look it up.

1726
01:37:25,440 --> 01:37:26,440
Yeah.

1727
01:37:26,440 --> 01:37:27,440
You can see the whole concert.

1728
01:37:27,440 --> 01:37:29,440
I wanted to go to their last tour.

1729
01:37:29,440 --> 01:37:31,440
They came by St. Louis.

1730
01:37:31,440 --> 01:37:33,440
I forgot his name.

1731
01:37:33,440 --> 01:37:34,440
Jeff Lynn.

1732
01:37:34,440 --> 01:37:35,440
Jeff Lynn, yeah.

1733
01:37:35,440 --> 01:37:36,440
Yeah.

1734
01:37:36,440 --> 01:37:37,440
He said that was the last.

1735
01:37:37,440 --> 01:37:38,440
That was it, but I didn't get a chance to go.

1736
01:37:38,440 --> 01:37:39,440
It sucks.

1737
01:37:39,440 --> 01:37:40,440
Yeah.

1738
01:37:40,440 --> 01:37:41,440
He pretty much was ELO.

1739
01:37:41,440 --> 01:37:42,440
Jeff Lynn.

1740
01:37:42,440 --> 01:37:43,440
He's a composer type of a guy in here.

1741
01:37:43,440 --> 01:37:44,440
Producer, arranger, just kind of hand and everything.

1742
01:37:44,440 --> 01:37:45,440
Oh, wow.

1743
01:37:45,440 --> 01:37:46,440
I thought it was going to be done snowing.

1744
01:37:46,440 --> 01:37:47,440
The snow hasn't really begun yet.

1745
01:37:47,440 --> 01:37:48,440
Look at this.

1746
01:37:48,440 --> 01:37:49,440
Oh my gosh.

1747
01:37:49,440 --> 01:37:50,440
It's moving in right now.

1748
01:37:50,440 --> 01:37:51,440
Yeah.

1749
01:37:51,440 --> 01:37:52,440
Wow.

1750
01:37:52,440 --> 01:37:53,440
That's a big hump of snow.

1751
01:37:53,440 --> 01:38:04,440
All right.

1752
01:38:04,440 --> 01:38:05,440
Okay.

1753
01:38:05,440 --> 01:38:08,440
I guess they were right for once.

1754
01:38:08,440 --> 01:38:09,440
Maybe.

1755
01:38:09,440 --> 01:38:10,440
Yeah.

1756
01:38:10,440 --> 01:38:11,440
Okay.

1757
01:38:11,440 --> 01:38:12,440
Sure.

1758
01:38:12,440 --> 01:38:13,440
That's pretty much what I got there.

1759
01:38:13,440 --> 01:38:14,440
I'm going to stick with that for now.

1760
01:38:14,440 --> 01:38:15,440
Okay.

1761
01:38:15,440 --> 01:38:19,440
Well, I had an idea for story time.

1762
01:38:19,440 --> 01:38:20,440
Oh, yeah.

1763
01:38:20,440 --> 01:38:21,440
With the Music Creek.

1764
01:38:21,440 --> 01:38:22,440
Yep.

1765
01:38:22,440 --> 01:38:26,440
So, if the drag queens get to go read stories to little kids in the library.

1766
01:38:26,440 --> 01:38:27,440
That's where this came from.

1767
01:38:27,440 --> 01:38:32,440
Then the Music Creeps ought to be able to read song lyrics to little kids.

1768
01:38:32,440 --> 01:38:38,440
So, it's like we pick a song and read the lyrics out as if it's a nice little story

1769
01:38:38,440 --> 01:38:39,440
for the kids.

1770
01:38:39,440 --> 01:38:40,440
Okay.

1771
01:38:40,440 --> 01:38:41,440
So, I've got three for you to choose from.

1772
01:38:41,440 --> 01:38:42,440
You can pick any one.

1773
01:38:42,440 --> 01:38:50,440
The first one is Frank Zappa's Keep It Greasy.

1774
01:38:50,440 --> 01:38:54,440
The second one would be Strobe Light Beat Down by Monster Magglet.

1775
01:38:54,440 --> 01:38:58,440
And the third choice is I Love the Dead by Alice Cooper.

1776
01:38:58,440 --> 01:39:00,440
I'm going to go with I Love the Dead by Alice Cooper.

1777
01:39:00,440 --> 01:39:01,440
All righty.

1778
01:39:01,440 --> 01:39:02,440
Good choice.

1779
01:39:02,440 --> 01:39:06,440
So, let me crawl up the lyrics so I make sure I don't get any wrong.

1780
01:39:06,440 --> 01:39:08,440
Although any one of those would have worked very well.

1781
01:39:08,440 --> 01:39:13,440
I'm going to go with Alice Cooper.

1782
01:39:13,440 --> 01:39:14,440
Okay.

1783
01:39:14,440 --> 01:39:15,440
So, here we go.

1784
01:39:15,440 --> 01:39:18,440
Everybody settle in to their nice little spot.

1785
01:39:18,440 --> 01:39:20,440
Hang on.

1786
01:39:20,440 --> 01:39:21,440
I got my blankie.

1787
01:39:21,440 --> 01:39:22,440
Okay.

1788
01:39:22,440 --> 01:39:23,440
You got your juice box and your cookies.

1789
01:39:23,440 --> 01:39:24,440
Yep.

1790
01:39:24,440 --> 01:39:25,440
Okay, children.

1791
01:39:25,440 --> 01:39:26,440
Okay.

1792
01:39:26,440 --> 01:39:27,440
Now, here's verse five.

1793
01:39:27,440 --> 01:39:28,440
Hey, where's my milk?

1794
01:39:28,440 --> 01:39:29,440
Hang on.

1795
01:39:29,440 --> 01:39:30,440
Oh, okay.

1796
01:39:30,440 --> 01:39:31,440
I got it.

1797
01:39:31,440 --> 01:39:32,440
This is I Love the Dead by Alice Cooper.

1798
01:39:32,440 --> 01:39:33,440
Go ahead.

1799
01:39:33,440 --> 01:39:36,440
I love the dead before they're cold.

1800
01:39:36,440 --> 01:39:40,440
They're bluing flesh for me to hold.

1801
01:39:40,440 --> 01:39:45,440
Cogaver eyes upon me see nothing.

1802
01:39:45,440 --> 01:39:46,440
Verse two.

1803
01:39:46,440 --> 01:39:50,440
I love the dead before they rise.

1804
01:39:50,440 --> 01:39:53,440
No farewells, no goodbyes.

1805
01:39:53,440 --> 01:39:57,440
I never even knew your now rotting face.

1806
01:39:57,440 --> 01:40:05,440
While friends and lovers mourn your sooty grave, I have other uses for you, darling.

1807
01:40:05,440 --> 01:40:06,440
Bridge.

1808
01:40:06,440 --> 01:40:07,440
La la la la la la la la.

1809
01:40:07,440 --> 01:40:10,440
Dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead.

1810
01:40:10,440 --> 01:40:11,440
Here comes the chorus.

1811
01:40:11,440 --> 01:40:12,440
Are you ready, kids?

1812
01:40:12,440 --> 01:40:13,440
Yes.

1813
01:40:13,440 --> 01:40:14,440
I love the dead.

1814
01:40:14,440 --> 01:40:15,440
I love the dead.

1815
01:40:15,440 --> 01:40:16,440
I love the dead.

1816
01:40:16,440 --> 01:40:17,440
There we go.

1817
01:40:17,440 --> 01:40:18,440
All right.

1818
01:40:18,440 --> 01:40:19,440
Then we repeat the first chorus.

1819
01:40:19,440 --> 01:40:20,440
I love the dead before they're cold.

1820
01:40:20,440 --> 01:40:21,440
They're bluing flesh for me to hold.

1821
01:40:21,440 --> 01:40:22,440
Cogaver eyes upon me see nothing.

1822
01:40:22,440 --> 01:40:23,440
Oh, Bede.

1823
01:40:23,440 --> 01:40:24,440
I'm glad I went with that song, actually.

1824
01:40:24,440 --> 01:40:25,440
Glad I went with that one.

1825
01:40:25,440 --> 01:40:26,440
Of course, Keep It Greasy would have been fun, too.

1826
01:40:26,440 --> 01:40:27,280
That would've been fun.

1827
01:40:27,280 --> 01:40:28,440
I wish we all got to hear it, too.

1828
01:40:28,440 --> 01:40:30,480
It would be fun.

1829
01:40:30,480 --> 01:40:36,840
Put your hands up.

1830
01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:39,840
I'm glad I went with that song actually.

1831
01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:41,840
Glad I went with that one.

1832
01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:44,840
Of course, Keep It Greasy would have been fun too.

1833
01:40:44,840 --> 01:40:46,840
How about Next Music Creeps?

1834
01:40:46,840 --> 01:40:48,840
We'll do Keep It Greasy.

1835
01:40:50,840 --> 01:40:56,840
So if any of you fell asleep and had a little nappy time there, time to wake up, show us back up.

1836
01:40:56,840 --> 01:41:02,840
Okay, if you were going to get four tattoos of bands logos, what would they be?

1837
01:41:02,840 --> 01:41:04,840
You had to.

1838
01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:07,840
You may not even like tattoos, but you had to.

1839
01:41:07,840 --> 01:41:14,840
Well, Alice Cooper might get his eyes with the dripping, runny mascara.

1840
01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:15,840
That's cool.

1841
01:41:18,840 --> 01:41:19,840
Let's see.

1842
01:41:22,840 --> 01:41:26,840
The Bulldog logo from Monster Magnet.

1843
01:41:26,840 --> 01:41:27,840
Oh, yeah.

1844
01:41:27,840 --> 01:41:30,840
Big giant horns, big ring in his nose, breathing fire.

1845
01:41:30,840 --> 01:41:31,840
Yep.

1846
01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:34,840
That's pretty awesome.

1847
01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:39,840
I don't know that Alice in Chains has a logo.

1848
01:41:39,840 --> 01:41:43,840
The Van Halen logo would be pretty cool. VH.

1849
01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:47,840
Soundgarden doesn't really have one either.

1850
01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:48,840
Yeah.

1851
01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:52,840
Another really cool logo would be Ario Speedwagon's logo.

1852
01:41:52,840 --> 01:41:54,840
That would be a great logo.

1853
01:41:54,840 --> 01:41:56,840
Ozzy has a great logo.

1854
01:41:56,840 --> 01:41:58,840
Yeah, yeah.

1855
01:41:58,840 --> 01:42:02,840
Sabbath has a few logos. Deep Purple has a few logos.

1856
01:42:02,840 --> 01:42:03,840
Yeah.

1857
01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:07,840
Captain and tail.

1858
01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:10,840
The Osmond Brothers.

1859
01:42:10,840 --> 01:42:12,840
The Osmond Brothers.

1860
01:42:13,840 --> 01:42:15,840
I guess they were just called the Osmonds.

1861
01:42:15,840 --> 01:42:17,840
Sticks has a good logo.

1862
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:19,840
Boston.

1863
01:42:19,840 --> 01:42:21,840
Oh, yeah, Boston.

1864
01:42:24,840 --> 01:42:26,840
Yeah, man, there's a lot of cheese for them.

1865
01:42:26,840 --> 01:42:28,840
Yeah, okay.

1866
01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:29,840
I'm going to go with...

1867
01:42:29,840 --> 01:42:34,840
Here's one, not necessarily because I'm that crazy about the band anymore,

1868
01:42:34,840 --> 01:42:37,840
but the Motley Crue Theatre of Pain logo.

1869
01:42:37,840 --> 01:42:38,840
Oh, yeah.

1870
01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:47,840
Yeah, with the comedy and tragedy and the long, you know, the elongated words or letters of Motley Crue.

1871
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:48,840
That is a great logo.

1872
01:42:48,840 --> 01:42:50,840
That is. That's a powerful logo.

1873
01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:52,840
The Kiss logo.

1874
01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:54,840
Oh, that's another good one.

1875
01:42:54,840 --> 01:42:57,840
You know, in Europe, they're not allowed to use those S's.

1876
01:42:57,840 --> 01:42:58,840
Because of the swastika.

1877
01:42:58,840 --> 01:43:01,840
Yeah, because it was a Nazi thing, so they have to change it to a different shape.

1878
01:43:01,840 --> 01:43:03,840
Well, Kiss says they're lightning bolts.

1879
01:43:03,840 --> 01:43:06,840
They say they're too close to Nazi S's.

1880
01:43:06,840 --> 01:43:12,840
Well, yeah, the Nazi SS also chose them as lightning bolts.

1881
01:43:12,840 --> 01:43:13,840
Oh, that's right.

1882
01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:18,840
Yeah, so Kiss can say they're lightning bolts, and the Nazis can say, yes, of course they are.

1883
01:43:18,840 --> 01:43:19,840
That's why we chose them.

1884
01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:24,840
Jinkx and his mom was a Holocaust survivor, too. Interesting.

1885
01:43:24,840 --> 01:43:29,840
Yeah, it's kind of odd that he would cross that line.

1886
01:43:29,840 --> 01:43:32,840
Yeah, well, Paul Stanley's Jewish, too.

1887
01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:34,840
I think most of them are.

1888
01:43:34,840 --> 01:43:35,840
ACP or?

1889
01:43:35,840 --> 01:43:36,840
Well, that's true.

1890
01:43:36,840 --> 01:43:38,840
Well, here's why.

1891
01:43:38,840 --> 01:43:40,840
Paul Stanley accuses them of being anti-Semitic,

1892
01:43:40,840 --> 01:43:45,840
and that they think that those two are the Jews that keep all the money.

1893
01:43:45,840 --> 01:43:49,840
Well, that's true or not, I kind of doubt if it's true, but you know, it's something.

1894
01:43:49,840 --> 01:43:51,840
Whatever.

1895
01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:55,840
That, you know, if you've got something you can use, a card like that you can play.

1896
01:43:55,840 --> 01:43:56,840
Yeah.

1897
01:43:56,840 --> 01:43:57,840
The Jew card.

1898
01:43:57,840 --> 01:43:59,840
Oh, you hate us because we're Jews.

1899
01:43:59,840 --> 01:44:01,840
Yeah, yeah, it's overplayed now.

1900
01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:04,840
Most people, you don't even know they're Jewish.

1901
01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:05,840
Until later, you know.

1902
01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:09,840
And really, why would you go around advertising personal information about yourself?

1903
01:44:09,840 --> 01:44:10,840
It's like...

1904
01:44:10,840 --> 01:44:14,840
Yeah, yeah, it's like, I don't know, grandstanding or something.

1905
01:44:14,840 --> 01:44:17,840
Yeah, everybody look at me because I'm this.

1906
01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:20,840
How about we just take you as a human being?

1907
01:44:20,840 --> 01:44:22,840
Yeah, yeah, that would probably be better.

1908
01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:24,840
Judging on how decent a person you are.

1909
01:44:24,840 --> 01:44:27,840
Well, then now the people that do hate Jews probably hate you.

1910
01:44:27,840 --> 01:44:28,840
Yeah, yeah.

1911
01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:32,840
There are some people who would hate me for my German ancestry.

1912
01:44:32,840 --> 01:44:40,840
There are some people that would probably hate me for my Scottish ancestry.

1913
01:44:40,840 --> 01:44:44,840
My Welsh ancestors, they pretty much didn't love anybody too much.

1914
01:44:44,840 --> 01:44:47,840
Nah, nah, they're not on the hate list.

1915
01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:49,840
On dad's side, it's all German.

1916
01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:52,840
On mom's side, it's Scottish and Welsh.

1917
01:44:52,840 --> 01:44:57,840
The two sides that were fighting each other in Braveheart.

1918
01:44:57,840 --> 01:45:02,840
Yeah, well, speaking of Braveheart, my last name would indicate Scottish on my dad's side.

1919
01:45:02,840 --> 01:45:07,840
And then my mom, you know, of course, is all Greek, as far as I know.

1920
01:45:07,840 --> 01:45:12,840
Although my grandpa from over there was a six foot four blonde haired blue eyed man.

1921
01:45:12,840 --> 01:45:13,840
Yeah.

1922
01:45:13,840 --> 01:45:15,840
Does not fit the demographic.

1923
01:45:15,840 --> 01:45:17,840
And he's on an island.

1924
01:45:17,840 --> 01:45:20,840
So someone in a boat probably came up.

1925
01:45:20,840 --> 01:45:22,840
That's what I'm saying.

1926
01:45:22,840 --> 01:45:25,840
But anyhow, I mean, and I'm not going to go get a DNA thing.

1927
01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:27,840
Number one, I don't give a shit.

1928
01:45:27,840 --> 01:45:33,840
Number two, well, and also America also has me pegged as a certain person too,

1929
01:45:33,840 --> 01:45:36,840
because my mom's side is full blooded.

1930
01:45:36,840 --> 01:45:44,840
And so that's the way, from what I understand, that's what you are, type of thing, whatever, you know, that stupid shit.

1931
01:45:44,840 --> 01:45:47,840
But yeah, my dad's side would probably be Scottish.

1932
01:45:47,840 --> 01:45:49,840
I don't know what else.

1933
01:45:49,840 --> 01:45:50,840
He didn't really know either.

1934
01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:55,840
But I don't give a shit enough to do a DNA thing to find out where or who's from or whatever.

1935
01:45:55,840 --> 01:46:02,840
I think everyone should be allowed to identify with whatever ancestor works out best for them.

1936
01:46:02,840 --> 01:46:03,840
You know?

1937
01:46:03,840 --> 01:46:10,840
It's like, you know, if you're like one one billionth of this, but that's what you like best, it's like, go ahead and identify with that.

1938
01:46:10,840 --> 01:46:13,840
It's not like there are rules.

1939
01:46:13,840 --> 01:46:18,840
Unfortunately, you think the side over here, I know something about more than the side over there.

1940
01:46:18,840 --> 01:46:21,840
I know a lot more about this side over in Greece than I do the side over here.

1941
01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:22,840
Yeah.

1942
01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:28,840
Keeping track of family history used to be a lot more important, especially in European culture.

1943
01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:30,840
Not all that much here.

1944
01:46:30,840 --> 01:46:36,840
Well, my dad was the second child of the second marriage of his dad, and he was much older, and his mom was younger.

1945
01:46:36,840 --> 01:46:43,840
And he was the only child, and he didn't really know his step children that well.

1946
01:46:43,840 --> 01:46:46,840
And so he didn't really get to know the lineage over here.

1947
01:46:46,840 --> 01:46:48,840
So I never had an opportunity.

1948
01:46:48,840 --> 01:46:51,840
And like I said, I'll never do a DNA thing or none of that.

1949
01:46:51,840 --> 01:46:52,840
No, because then they own your DNA.

1950
01:46:52,840 --> 01:46:53,840
Yeah.

1951
01:46:53,840 --> 01:46:57,840
So, so anyhow, the only side I really know is that.

1952
01:46:57,840 --> 01:47:00,840
I kind of go by that.

1953
01:47:00,840 --> 01:47:03,840
What were we talking about anyhow?

1954
01:47:03,840 --> 01:47:06,840
Let's see.

1955
01:47:06,840 --> 01:47:08,840
We talked about band logo tattoos.

1956
01:47:08,840 --> 01:47:09,840
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1957
01:47:09,840 --> 01:47:11,840
I guess we'd probably run that all the way.

1958
01:47:11,840 --> 01:47:12,840
Okay.

1959
01:47:12,840 --> 01:47:13,840
I like this question.

1960
01:47:13,840 --> 01:47:14,840
Sure.

1961
01:47:14,840 --> 01:47:19,840
If you were forced to learn a complicated guitar piece, what would it be?

1962
01:47:19,840 --> 01:47:21,840
And we're talking bridge, solo, and intro.

1963
01:47:21,840 --> 01:47:25,840
They can all be different, but they have to be complicated.

1964
01:47:25,840 --> 01:47:29,840
I mean, nothing can come out like crazy little thing called love.

1965
01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:30,840
You know, the intro of that's easy.

1966
01:47:30,840 --> 01:47:31,840
Yeah.

1967
01:47:31,840 --> 01:47:35,840
Da da da da da da.

1968
01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:36,840
All right, let's see.

1969
01:47:36,840 --> 01:47:38,840
I heard one the other day.

1970
01:47:38,840 --> 01:47:39,840
Oh my God.

1971
01:47:39,840 --> 01:47:40,840
Go ahead.

1972
01:47:40,840 --> 01:47:41,840
It was a Rush song.

1973
01:47:41,840 --> 01:47:45,840
It was the title track from Farewell to Kings.

1974
01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:51,840
And the bridge in that is really off tempo, funky thing where the drums are doing one

1975
01:47:51,840 --> 01:47:56,840
thing, the bass is doing something other, and then the guitar comes in on a counterpoint,

1976
01:47:56,840 --> 01:48:00,840
and it all kind of eventually works together.

1977
01:48:00,840 --> 01:48:04,840
And that would be a really complex bridge to learn how to play.

1978
01:48:04,840 --> 01:48:08,840
I think a slightly different feeling, and it is somewhat complicated, would be wish

1979
01:48:08,840 --> 01:48:10,840
you were here.

1980
01:48:10,840 --> 01:48:11,840
Yeah.

1981
01:48:11,840 --> 01:48:12,840
Yeah.

1982
01:48:12,840 --> 01:48:18,840
The note, then, the feel that David Gilmore has on it is just insane.

1983
01:48:18,840 --> 01:48:19,840
Yeah.

1984
01:48:19,840 --> 01:48:21,840
Yours is very good, too.

1985
01:48:21,840 --> 01:48:26,840
I mean, I like them both, but me, I would love to learn how to play wish you were here

1986
01:48:26,840 --> 01:48:27,840
in front.

1987
01:48:27,840 --> 01:48:28,840
Yeah.

1988
01:48:28,840 --> 01:48:29,840
And I guess it's an intro.

1989
01:48:29,840 --> 01:48:31,840
It kind of goes into the song.

1990
01:48:31,840 --> 01:48:32,840
Yeah.

1991
01:48:32,840 --> 01:48:37,840
There's one guitar doing the main chord structure, then there's a second guitar coming in doing

1992
01:48:37,840 --> 01:48:39,840
the single notes solo on top.

1993
01:48:39,840 --> 01:48:40,840
Yeah.

1994
01:48:40,840 --> 01:48:41,840
Yeah.

1995
01:48:41,840 --> 01:48:42,840
So I would call that pretty much, yeah.

1996
01:48:42,840 --> 01:48:46,840
So yeah, I would love to know how to do that or learn how to do that.

1997
01:48:46,840 --> 01:48:47,840
Yeah.

1998
01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:49,840
What about solo?

1999
01:48:49,840 --> 01:48:50,840
Oh.

2000
01:48:50,840 --> 01:48:53,840
The Farewell to Kings though, man.

2001
01:48:53,840 --> 01:48:56,840
I think I remember that, didn't I?

2002
01:48:56,840 --> 01:48:57,840
Let's see.

2003
01:48:57,840 --> 01:48:59,840
I'm going to pick a David Gilmore solo.

2004
01:48:59,840 --> 01:49:04,840
Not comfortably done because I'm tired of that one.

2005
01:49:04,840 --> 01:49:06,840
I'm not picking Kirk Hammett.

2006
01:49:06,840 --> 01:49:07,840
No.

2007
01:49:07,840 --> 01:49:10,840
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.

2008
01:49:10,840 --> 01:49:13,840
Can't stay off the waffel.

2009
01:49:13,840 --> 01:49:24,840
I guess for David Gilmore solo, it's the song.

2010
01:49:24,840 --> 01:49:27,840
I can't think of the song I'm trying to think of, so I'll pick a different one.

2011
01:49:27,840 --> 01:49:30,840
It's Shine on You Crazy Diamond.

2012
01:49:30,840 --> 01:49:32,840
Oh, fuck.

2013
01:49:32,840 --> 01:49:33,840
Oh my gosh.

2014
01:49:33,840 --> 01:49:36,840
You're going to be there for three years learning that damn thing.

2015
01:49:36,840 --> 01:49:37,840
Gosh.

2016
01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:40,840
Big ass solo.

2017
01:49:40,840 --> 01:49:46,840
But then as far as an intro, I've got one all picked out.

2018
01:49:46,840 --> 01:49:47,840
Okay.

2019
01:49:47,840 --> 01:49:49,840
I'm going to just go ahead and play it.

2020
01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:50,840
Okay.

2021
01:49:50,840 --> 01:49:56,840
Skip through, it's got to be on here.

2022
01:49:56,840 --> 01:49:59,840
It's probably near the bottom.

2023
01:49:59,840 --> 01:50:02,840
It gets really out of it.

2024
01:50:02,840 --> 01:50:05,840
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do.

2025
01:50:05,840 --> 01:50:07,840
Feel free to talk amongst yourselves.

2026
01:50:07,840 --> 01:50:10,840
Okay.

2027
01:50:10,840 --> 01:50:13,840
No, I'm thinking of bridges now.

2028
01:50:13,840 --> 01:50:16,840
Oh, it's weird.

2029
01:50:16,840 --> 01:50:22,840
I've got so many duplicates of songs in here for some weird reason.

2030
01:50:22,840 --> 01:50:24,840
Oh, let me think.

2031
01:50:24,840 --> 01:50:26,840
Bridges, gosh.

2032
01:50:26,840 --> 01:50:30,840
I'm at a, you know, I normally can think of bridges just like that because there's some

2033
01:50:30,840 --> 01:50:32,840
of my favorite parts of the song.

2034
01:50:32,840 --> 01:50:37,840
The bridge kind of holds it all together and gives you the feeling.

2035
01:50:37,840 --> 01:50:40,840
Here's my intro that I would do.

2036
01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:50,840
It's for a song called Pulled Offer.

2037
01:50:50,840 --> 01:50:53,840
I never noticed this, but old Alice kind of has a Kiss feel.

2038
01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:54,840
Yeah.

2039
01:50:54,840 --> 01:50:59,840
Kiss got it from him, obviously.

2040
01:50:59,840 --> 01:51:01,840
That's Steve Hunter on guitar.

2041
01:51:01,840 --> 01:51:09,840
Oh, it is?

2042
01:51:09,840 --> 01:51:11,840
What year was that?

2043
01:51:11,840 --> 01:51:12,840
It was 75.

2044
01:51:12,840 --> 01:51:13,840
75, okay.

2045
01:51:13,840 --> 01:51:18,840
That was on my little show, my favorite Alice Cooper guitar solos.

2046
01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:22,840
That was one of the ones I had in that, so if you want to hear a better version, I could

2047
01:51:22,840 --> 01:51:24,840
go back and find that podcast.

2048
01:51:24,840 --> 01:51:25,840
Okay.

2049
01:51:25,840 --> 01:51:28,840
That intro, I used to use that as a ringtone.

2050
01:51:28,840 --> 01:51:29,840
It was awesome.

2051
01:51:29,840 --> 01:51:32,840
Could you find the wish you were here on trombone?

2052
01:51:32,840 --> 01:51:38,840
So in case people didn't realize.

2053
01:51:38,840 --> 01:51:54,840
I think mine's trying to surge within Alice Cooper again.

2054
01:51:54,840 --> 01:52:06,840
Yeah, let me search for it here.

2055
01:52:06,840 --> 01:52:07,840
No results.

2056
01:52:07,840 --> 01:52:08,840
It's not on my...

2057
01:52:08,840 --> 01:52:09,840
All right, I'll go to YouTube Music.

2058
01:52:09,840 --> 01:52:10,840
They'll find it.

2059
01:52:10,840 --> 01:52:11,840
Wish you were here, Pink Floyd.

2060
01:52:11,840 --> 01:52:25,840
No, it's not.

2061
01:52:25,840 --> 01:52:42,840
You're playing the whole album.

2062
01:52:42,840 --> 01:52:56,840
And now it's...

2063
01:52:56,840 --> 01:53:16,840
I'm learning to play this part.

2064
01:53:16,840 --> 01:53:27,840
Oh, are you?

2065
01:53:27,840 --> 01:53:32,840
Yeah, this part.

2066
01:53:32,840 --> 01:53:33,840
Now, now the lead stuff.

2067
01:53:33,840 --> 01:53:34,840
Yeah.

2068
01:53:34,840 --> 01:53:35,840
It actually is really good.

2069
01:53:35,840 --> 01:53:36,840
I mean, yes.

2070
01:53:36,840 --> 01:53:37,840
Probably not that complicated, but it sounds so good.

2071
01:53:37,840 --> 01:53:38,840
Yeah, it's a G and then an E suspended chord and an A suspended chord, and then you just

2072
01:53:38,840 --> 01:53:39,840
pick the notes in between.

2073
01:53:39,840 --> 01:53:40,840
Yeah.

2074
01:53:40,840 --> 01:53:47,840
See, that's a G.

2075
01:53:47,840 --> 01:54:00,840
I mean, here's the difficult part.

2076
01:54:00,840 --> 01:54:01,840
Especially on an acoustic.

2077
01:54:01,840 --> 01:54:02,840
Oh, I know.

2078
01:54:02,840 --> 01:54:03,840
The strings are so thick.

2079
01:54:03,840 --> 01:54:04,840
Geez.

2080
01:54:04,840 --> 01:54:12,840
Look at that strong fingers, man.

2081
01:54:12,840 --> 01:54:13,840
Yeah.

2082
01:54:13,840 --> 01:54:14,840
He's popping.

2083
01:54:14,840 --> 01:54:15,840
Right there.

2084
01:54:15,840 --> 01:54:16,840
Yeah.

2085
01:54:16,840 --> 01:54:17,840
He's popping those strings hard, man.

2086
01:54:17,840 --> 01:54:18,840
The sound is good.

2087
01:54:18,840 --> 01:54:19,840
And then it comes on all sweet.

2088
01:54:19,840 --> 01:54:20,840
I'm gonna be going from there.

2089
01:54:20,840 --> 01:54:38,840
Let's avoid copyright issues and stop it right there.

2090
01:54:38,840 --> 01:54:39,840
Yeah, yeah.

2091
01:54:39,840 --> 01:54:40,840
But amazing lyrics.

2092
01:54:40,840 --> 01:54:41,840
Oh, yeah.

2093
01:54:41,840 --> 01:54:42,840
Blue sky from the...

2094
01:54:42,840 --> 01:54:43,840
Yeah, it's very good.

2095
01:54:43,840 --> 01:54:44,840
Yeah.

2096
01:54:44,840 --> 01:54:45,840
Bridge, I've got one.

2097
01:54:45,840 --> 01:54:46,840
Yeah.

2098
01:54:46,840 --> 01:54:47,840
Still of the Night.

2099
01:54:47,840 --> 01:54:48,840
White Sky.

2100
01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:49,840
Yeah.

2101
01:54:49,840 --> 01:54:50,840
Maybe the best one ever.

2102
01:54:50,840 --> 01:54:51,840
Oh, yeah.

2103
01:54:51,840 --> 01:54:52,840
That goes all sorts of interesting places.

2104
01:54:52,840 --> 01:54:53,840
And also related, but not the same, Deep Purple, Perfect Strangers.

2105
01:54:53,840 --> 01:54:54,840
Yeah.

2106
01:54:54,840 --> 01:54:55,840
That thing.

2107
01:54:55,840 --> 01:54:56,840
Oh, I love that song.

2108
01:54:56,840 --> 01:54:57,840
Oh, that thing is just...

2109
01:54:57,840 --> 01:54:58,840
That's got such a unique...

2110
01:54:58,840 --> 01:54:59,840
Yeah.

2111
01:54:59,840 --> 01:55:00,840
I love that staccato.

2112
01:55:00,840 --> 01:55:01,840
It's like a heartbeat with extra.

2113
01:55:01,840 --> 01:55:02,840
Yeah.

2114
01:55:02,840 --> 01:55:03,840
And it just, for me, it just keeps me on edge the whole song.

2115
01:55:03,840 --> 01:55:04,840
Those two, I would love to learn how to play either one of them.

2116
01:55:04,840 --> 01:55:05,840
One of them's got a...

2117
01:55:05,840 --> 01:55:06,840
Oh, yeah.

2118
01:55:06,840 --> 01:55:07,840
One of them's got a...

2119
01:55:07,840 --> 01:55:08,840
One of them's got a...

2120
01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:09,840
One of them's got a...

2121
01:55:09,840 --> 01:55:10,840
One of them's got a...

2122
01:55:10,840 --> 01:55:11,840
One of them's got a...

2123
01:55:11,840 --> 01:55:12,840
One of them's got a...

2124
01:55:12,840 --> 01:55:13,840
One of them's got a...

2125
01:55:13,840 --> 01:55:20,840
One of them's got a...

2126
01:55:20,840 --> 01:55:21,840
One of them's got a...

2127
01:55:21,840 --> 01:55:22,840
Oh, yeah.

2128
01:55:22,840 --> 01:55:23,840
And I mean, then Perfect Strangers, I would have to say, would be the all-time favorite.

2129
01:55:23,840 --> 01:55:26,840
And then Still the Night would be second.

2130
01:55:26,840 --> 01:55:27,840
Yeah.

2131
01:55:27,840 --> 01:55:28,840
Oh.

2132
01:55:28,840 --> 01:55:29,840
The Casimir by Led Zepp.

2133
01:55:29,840 --> 01:55:30,840
Oh, gosh.

2134
01:55:30,840 --> 01:55:31,840
That's another one too.

2135
01:55:31,840 --> 01:55:32,840
That's got an awesome bridge.

2136
01:55:32,840 --> 01:55:33,840
And that actually isn't all that difficult to play.

2137
01:55:33,840 --> 01:55:34,840
It'd lead the notes.

2138
01:55:34,840 --> 01:55:35,840
No.

2139
01:55:35,840 --> 01:55:37,480
But getting the feel right is tough.

2140
01:55:37,480 --> 01:55:39,960
Another one that I really like.

2141
01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:45,340
Another one that I really like, less popular is The Rover.

2142
01:55:45,340 --> 01:55:46,340
Oh yeah!

2143
01:55:46,340 --> 01:55:50,220
There's Side 2 physical graffiti.

2144
01:55:50,220 --> 01:55:54,040
I actually was in a band that played that out live.

2145
01:55:54,040 --> 01:55:55,840
That's such an underrated song.

2146
01:55:55,840 --> 01:55:58,080
That song is so damn good.

2147
01:55:58,080 --> 01:56:02,000
It is, but in a bar setting it just goes over very well.

2148
01:56:02,000 --> 01:56:04,000
People don't know it.

2149
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:08,520
I think when we finished I remember hearing somebody yell, yay it's over.

2150
01:56:08,520 --> 01:56:12,480
And here it's the famous...

2151
01:56:12,480 --> 01:56:14,480
Exactly.

2152
01:56:14,480 --> 01:56:20,240
I've played a lot of gigs like that, man.

2153
01:56:20,240 --> 01:56:26,560
I guess only music freaks would really know that and the average fan never heard it on

2154
01:56:26,560 --> 01:56:31,120
101 the Fox or KY or something.

2155
01:56:31,120 --> 01:56:39,280
Until I remember playing a New Year's Eve gig in a hotel bar.

2156
01:56:39,280 --> 01:56:42,920
So you'd think in a hotel there'd be a whole hotel of people.

2157
01:56:42,920 --> 01:56:45,480
We were playing to the bartender and the waitresses.

2158
01:56:45,480 --> 01:56:46,880
Nobody was in there?

2159
01:56:46,880 --> 01:56:47,880
Most of the night.

2160
01:56:47,880 --> 01:56:52,400
I think for a while we had two or three people that showed up for a while long enough to

2161
01:56:52,400 --> 01:56:54,400
spill champagne all over my drums.

2162
01:56:54,400 --> 01:57:01,320
So the next day I had to take them all apart and clean all that sticky crap off.

2163
01:57:01,320 --> 01:57:05,160
But oh man, that was a miserable New Year's Eve.

2164
01:57:05,160 --> 01:57:06,160
That was pretty bad.

2165
01:57:06,160 --> 01:57:09,440
We thought it was going to be crazy with people everywhere and all that stuff, but instead

2166
01:57:09,440 --> 01:57:13,400
it was just like, there must be a party going on somewhere.

2167
01:57:13,400 --> 01:57:14,400
It's not here.

2168
01:57:14,400 --> 01:57:17,400
That was in Blue Springs.

2169
01:57:17,400 --> 01:57:23,400
Blue Springs isn't exactly party capital, but we expected more people than nobody.

2170
01:57:23,400 --> 01:57:28,400
Maybe 10 would be nice or 15, but nobody?

2171
01:57:28,400 --> 01:57:30,400
At least we still got paid.

2172
01:57:30,400 --> 01:57:35,400
They were like, fuck, you gotta pay these losers 200 bucks.

2173
01:57:35,400 --> 01:57:36,400
What the hell?

2174
01:57:36,400 --> 01:57:41,400
That was during my first marriage and my ex-wife never came out to the gigs.

2175
01:57:41,400 --> 01:57:47,400
Everybody else had someone to kiss at midnight, so I just shook my own hand and called it

2176
01:57:47,400 --> 01:57:48,400
good.

2177
01:57:48,400 --> 01:57:51,400
I would kiss my palm and say, see you later.

2178
01:57:51,400 --> 01:57:56,400
I got a pity kiss on the cheek from the bass player's wife, Kristen.

2179
01:57:56,400 --> 01:57:57,400
Thanks!

2180
01:57:57,400 --> 01:57:59,400
I loved her like a little sister.

2181
01:57:59,400 --> 01:58:02,400
She was my sister from another mister.

2182
01:58:02,400 --> 01:58:03,400
Kurt and Kristen.

2183
01:58:03,400 --> 01:58:06,400
I love them both.

2184
01:58:06,400 --> 01:58:09,400
They're awesome people.

2185
01:58:09,400 --> 01:58:12,400
Anytime I run into a man it's just like, hey, how you doing?

2186
01:58:12,400 --> 01:58:15,400
It's just like, so happy to see each other.

2187
01:58:15,400 --> 01:58:19,400
We just fall right back into grins, good turns.

2188
01:58:19,400 --> 01:58:21,400
They're quality.

2189
01:58:21,400 --> 01:58:26,400
Kurt is, I think he's coming up on like 10 years sober.

2190
01:58:26,400 --> 01:58:28,400
Oh, good for him.

2191
01:58:28,400 --> 01:58:29,400
Good job.

2192
01:58:29,400 --> 01:58:34,400
He was a real heavy drinker when I was in Weatherhead with him.

2193
01:58:34,400 --> 01:58:36,400
He seemed to keep it together.

2194
01:58:36,400 --> 01:58:44,400
I never saw him drive drunk and I never saw him get any kind of DUI or problem, but he

2195
01:58:44,400 --> 01:58:46,400
drank a lot.

2196
01:58:46,400 --> 01:58:49,400
He makes better decisions now.

2197
01:58:49,400 --> 01:58:50,400
Good for him.

2198
01:58:50,400 --> 01:58:51,400
That's good to hear.

2199
01:58:51,400 --> 01:58:53,400
He and Kristen have a great marriage.

2200
01:58:53,400 --> 01:58:55,400
They've got some beautiful daughters.

2201
01:58:55,400 --> 01:58:56,400
Good.

2202
01:58:56,400 --> 01:58:59,400
Good for them.

2203
01:58:59,400 --> 01:59:01,400
Oh, oh, oh, oh.

2204
01:59:01,400 --> 01:59:05,400
Okay, I mean, I know we're on the music creeps there again, but I want to, okay, I've got

2205
01:59:05,400 --> 01:59:11,400
some excerpts from the Glenn Hughes book and the autobiography that I wanted to go over

2206
01:59:11,400 --> 01:59:12,400
here.

2207
01:59:12,400 --> 01:59:19,400
Anyhow, I mean, it's such a good book, but he had so many good stories in this thing.

2208
01:59:19,400 --> 01:59:21,400
I think they deserve to be told.

2209
01:59:21,400 --> 01:59:22,400
Yeah.

2210
01:59:22,400 --> 01:59:23,400
Okay.

2211
01:59:23,400 --> 01:59:26,400
His first one is David Bowie.

2212
01:59:26,400 --> 01:59:32,400
He knew David Bowie very well and David Bowie lived with him for a while.

2213
01:59:32,400 --> 01:59:40,400
So anyhow, I was in LA and this is an excerpt from Glenn Hughes' book, bassist, lead singer,

2214
01:59:40,400 --> 01:59:47,400
deep purple, black Sabbath, black country communion, all different kinds of bands, about

2215
01:59:47,400 --> 01:59:50,400
a musician's position really.

2216
01:59:50,400 --> 01:59:54,400
I was in LA and I got a call from David Bowie's personal assistant, Corrine.

2217
01:59:54,400 --> 02:00:00,400
She said Bowie had been watching footage on TV of Purple playing the California Jam and

2218
02:00:00,400 --> 02:00:03,400
he'd be impressed by, and he was impressed by my performance.

2219
02:00:03,400 --> 02:00:06,400
So I met up with him and we sat up talking all night.

2220
02:00:06,400 --> 02:00:12,400
By the time he was into his blue eyed soul thing, we share a mutual love of Luther Van

2221
02:00:12,400 --> 02:00:13,400
Dross.

2222
02:00:13,400 --> 02:00:16,400
Later Bowie asked me to sing in his Young Americans album.

2223
02:00:16,400 --> 02:00:17,400
Oh wow.

2224
02:00:17,400 --> 02:00:20,400
Eventually, Richie Blackmore was violently against it.

2225
02:00:20,400 --> 02:00:23,400
He thought it would be bad for Purple's image.

2226
02:00:23,400 --> 02:00:26,400
I was a bit pissed off by that.

2227
02:00:26,400 --> 02:00:27,400
I stayed friends with Bowie.

2228
02:00:27,400 --> 02:00:32,400
We were both in the blow, only Bowie's paranoia on cocaine was far greater than mine.

2229
02:00:32,400 --> 02:00:35,400
And I thought I was pretty crazy.

2230
02:00:35,400 --> 02:00:40,400
Bowie was very intelligent but he suffered bizarre mood swings when he was high.

2231
02:00:40,400 --> 02:00:42,400
Our relationship was very intense.

2232
02:00:42,400 --> 02:00:47,400
In 1975 and 76 he lived at my house in Beverly Hills for a time.

2233
02:00:47,400 --> 02:00:49,400
I was loaded on coke, so was Bowie.

2234
02:00:49,400 --> 02:00:50,400
The champagne flowed.

2235
02:00:50,400 --> 02:00:51,400
It was a great period.

2236
02:00:51,400 --> 02:00:56,400
I've never smoked a lot of pot, so my memories of these times are pretty vivid.

2237
02:00:56,400 --> 02:01:01,400
He goes in, this is just a rough draft, he goes into a lot of other stuff about Bowie

2238
02:01:01,400 --> 02:01:05,400
and his girlfriend having such loud sex he couldn't sleep every night.

2239
02:01:05,400 --> 02:01:07,400
That would suck, wouldn't it?

2240
02:01:07,400 --> 02:01:08,400
There you are.

2241
02:01:08,400 --> 02:01:09,400
God, I'm tired.

2242
02:01:09,400 --> 02:01:11,400
Ah, ah, ah, ah!

2243
02:01:11,400 --> 02:01:14,400
I feel like a motherfucker.

2244
02:01:14,400 --> 02:01:26,400
I remember hearing that the David Bowie album, Station to Station, I think that was 75, I think.

2245
02:01:26,400 --> 02:01:32,400
It was written mostly in a hotel room.

2246
02:01:32,400 --> 02:01:38,400
Bowie and Iggy Pop and Iggy Pop's girlfriend were hanging out and just staying completely

2247
02:01:38,400 --> 02:01:39,400
stoned.

2248
02:01:39,400 --> 02:01:42,400
And Bowie came up with most of the album there.

2249
02:01:42,400 --> 02:01:50,400
And his song, TV C-15, he said it was inspired when he hallucinated that the TV was eating

2250
02:01:50,400 --> 02:01:52,400
Iggy Pop's girlfriend.

2251
02:01:52,400 --> 02:01:58,400
That's a good one right there.

2252
02:01:58,400 --> 02:02:00,400
Isn't that awesome?

2253
02:02:00,400 --> 02:02:07,400
Oh no, I remember a man, some friends of mine were tripping on acid and they both saw the

2254
02:02:07,400 --> 02:02:08,400
same thing.

2255
02:02:08,400 --> 02:02:11,400
A stop sign that was smiling and talking to him.

2256
02:02:11,400 --> 02:02:13,400
They both saw the same thing.

2257
02:02:13,400 --> 02:02:17,400
And I'm like, geez, they're kind of like acid twins or something.

2258
02:02:17,400 --> 02:02:23,400
Yeah, a guy I went to high school with told me about some of his acid trips with this

2259
02:02:23,400 --> 02:02:24,400
other guy.

2260
02:02:24,400 --> 02:02:28,400
He said they were trying to play chess, but they were both just sitting there laughing

2261
02:02:28,400 --> 02:02:33,400
their asses off watching all the chess pieces move and dance and march around all by themselves.

2262
02:02:33,400 --> 02:02:37,400
And at one point they ran out of either beer or cigarettes.

2263
02:02:37,400 --> 02:02:44,400
So they hopped in this one guy's car and it was like one of those giant, big, heavy boat

2264
02:02:44,400 --> 02:02:47,400
cars from the 60s, those big enormous things.

2265
02:02:47,400 --> 02:02:49,400
And they were driving up the street.

2266
02:02:49,400 --> 02:02:51,400
It was dark, it was nighttime.

2267
02:02:51,400 --> 02:02:56,400
And they both hallucinated that they were in this big, slow moving powerboat going up

2268
02:02:56,400 --> 02:02:58,400
a jungle river.

2269
02:02:58,400 --> 02:03:03,400
And they were just kind of cruising along and then they noticed, oh, there's a car parked

2270
02:03:03,400 --> 02:03:04,400
in the river.

2271
02:03:04,400 --> 02:03:06,400
Wait, a car parked in the river?

2272
02:03:06,400 --> 02:03:10,400
And this guy stomped on the brakes and they're both very glad that they stopped in time.

2273
02:03:10,400 --> 02:03:15,400
It was like, there went their boat in a river illusion, but they both hallucinated that

2274
02:03:15,400 --> 02:03:18,400
they were in a boat traveling up a river at night.

2275
02:03:18,400 --> 02:03:19,400
Wow.

2276
02:03:19,400 --> 02:03:21,400
Just because they were driving up the street.

2277
02:03:21,400 --> 02:03:27,400
See, that's what's so dangerous about these hallucinogens is you start acting on what

2278
02:03:27,400 --> 02:03:28,400
you see.

2279
02:03:28,400 --> 02:03:29,400
Oh, no, no, no.

2280
02:03:29,400 --> 02:03:32,400
I know a couple of people who freaked out and were never the same.

2281
02:03:32,400 --> 02:03:33,400
Yeah, yeah.

2282
02:03:33,400 --> 02:03:37,400
One guy was been taken and being judged by the parliament.

2283
02:03:37,400 --> 02:03:41,400
And we're like, who the fuck's the parliament?

2284
02:03:41,400 --> 02:03:42,400
It's them.

2285
02:03:42,400 --> 02:03:43,400
It's them.

2286
02:03:43,400 --> 02:03:44,400
Parliament Funkadelic?

2287
02:03:44,400 --> 02:03:45,400
Yes.

2288
02:03:45,400 --> 02:03:46,400
With their outfits and everything.

2289
02:03:46,400 --> 02:03:47,400
Bootsy's rubber band?

2290
02:03:47,400 --> 02:03:48,400
Yes.

2291
02:03:48,400 --> 02:03:49,400
George Clinton and the guys.

2292
02:03:49,400 --> 02:03:50,400
Yeah, all of them.

2293
02:03:50,400 --> 02:03:51,400
Amazing musicians.

2294
02:03:51,400 --> 02:03:52,400
Oh, yeah, absolutely.

2295
02:03:52,400 --> 02:03:53,400
And no, but he was all flipped out.

2296
02:03:53,400 --> 02:03:54,400
We're like, who's the parliament?

2297
02:03:54,400 --> 02:03:55,400
It's them.

2298
02:03:55,400 --> 02:03:56,400
You know them.

2299
02:03:56,400 --> 02:03:57,400
Like, okay.

2300
02:03:57,400 --> 02:03:58,400
And he was never the same after that.

2301
02:03:58,400 --> 02:04:03,540
He was just like, oh, I'm going to go to the

2302
02:04:03,540 --> 02:04:08,640
house and I'm going to go to the house, and he was never the same after that.

2303
02:04:08,640 --> 02:04:10,680
I don't know what the parliament did to him.

2304
02:04:10,680 --> 02:04:12,400
Did they touch his wooly or something?

2305
02:04:12,400 --> 02:04:13,400
No, they were never the same.

2306
02:04:13,400 --> 02:04:14,920
Maybe they put a parasite into his beanie.

2307
02:04:14,920 --> 02:04:15,920
They did.

2308
02:04:15,920 --> 02:04:16,920
Sure they did.

2309
02:04:16,920 --> 02:04:24,440
Well, I remember this guy telling me that he felt that when he was on LSD, he pretty

2310
02:04:24,440 --> 02:04:26,400
much always knew he was tripping.

2311
02:04:26,400 --> 02:04:31,920
And it was like a lot of times he could think, wow, I wonder why I'm hallucinating this.

2312
02:04:31,920 --> 02:04:36,520
He said when he did peyote, it all seemed absolutely real.

2313
02:04:36,520 --> 02:04:38,880
You see, I wouldn't mind doing a natural substance.

2314
02:04:38,880 --> 02:04:42,200
I would never do acid because that's something people make.

2315
02:04:42,200 --> 02:04:44,800
Yeah, chemical created by laboratories.

2316
02:04:44,800 --> 02:04:46,120
Yeah, I don't think I want that.

2317
02:04:46,120 --> 02:04:48,440
Specifically for the purpose of opening up your mind.

2318
02:04:48,440 --> 02:04:50,280
Yeah, so I don't think I want that.

2319
02:04:50,280 --> 02:04:53,680
But if it came to it, I mean, I would do mushrooms.

2320
02:04:53,680 --> 02:04:54,180
Mushrooms.

2321
02:04:54,180 --> 02:04:55,800
Or ayahuasca would be really good.

2322
02:04:55,800 --> 02:04:57,440
Yeah, peyote, mescaline.

2323
02:04:57,440 --> 02:04:58,640
Mescaline, maybe, yeah.

2324
02:04:58,640 --> 02:04:59,880
Yeah, all the natural ones.

2325
02:04:59,880 --> 02:05:04,760
A guy I worked with said that he enjoyed doing peyote once or twice a year.

2326
02:05:04,760 --> 02:05:06,920
And he said, it makes you throw up.

2327
02:05:06,920 --> 02:05:09,040
It's like magic mushrooms will make you throw up.

2328
02:05:09,040 --> 02:05:09,800
Yeah.

2329
02:05:09,800 --> 02:05:12,000
He said peyote is the same thing.

2330
02:05:12,000 --> 02:05:15,240
What he usually did was cut them into very thin slices

2331
02:05:15,240 --> 02:05:19,160
and eat the thin slice and try to keep them down as long as he could.

2332
02:05:19,160 --> 02:05:20,920
He said, but you're going to throw up.

2333
02:05:20,920 --> 02:05:23,240
And then you just keep eating more and you throw them up.

2334
02:05:23,240 --> 02:05:25,120
You throw them up because of the poison?

2335
02:05:25,120 --> 02:05:28,120
Yeah, it just apparently makes you just super nauseous.

2336
02:05:28,120 --> 02:05:34,600
In case anyone doesn't know, what makes you see colors and hallucinations

2337
02:05:34,600 --> 02:05:35,880
is the poison.

2338
02:05:35,880 --> 02:05:37,480
Yeah, it's an actual toxin.

2339
02:05:37,480 --> 02:05:39,040
Yeah, it's a toxin.

2340
02:05:39,040 --> 02:05:41,040
It's part of a cactus plant.

2341
02:05:41,040 --> 02:05:43,440
It's the fruit of a certain cactus plant.

2342
02:05:43,440 --> 02:05:45,440
But he said eventually you eat and throw up.

2343
02:05:45,440 --> 02:05:48,000
And eventually you absorb enough that you start tripping.

2344
02:05:48,000 --> 02:05:49,880
He said at that point, you just quit eating.

2345
02:05:49,880 --> 02:05:51,840
You just enjoy life.

2346
02:05:51,840 --> 02:05:55,160
But I thought, you know, I don't think I could dedicate myself

2347
02:05:55,160 --> 02:05:59,160
to that long a period of harping in order to get to a good outcome.

2348
02:05:59,160 --> 02:06:00,480
I hate throwing up, man.

2349
02:06:00,480 --> 02:06:03,920
This is nasty.

2350
02:06:03,920 --> 02:06:07,160
Yeah, that would not be good.

2351
02:06:07,160 --> 02:06:08,640
Oh, Phil Weiman.

2352
02:06:08,640 --> 02:06:10,960
And this is Glen Williams.

2353
02:06:10,960 --> 02:06:12,440
Thin Lizzy.

2354
02:06:12,440 --> 02:06:13,560
OK.

2355
02:06:13,560 --> 02:06:17,120
In 1980, I was in LA making record with Al Cooper.

2356
02:06:17,120 --> 02:06:18,880
There we go, Al Cooper again.

2357
02:06:18,880 --> 02:06:20,520
Called Four on the Floor.

2358
02:06:20,520 --> 02:06:24,560
It was a disco record to all intents and purposes.

2359
02:06:24,560 --> 02:06:28,280
Thin Lizzy were in town and Phil Linett, Scott Borum, and Gary

2360
02:06:28,280 --> 02:06:31,400
Moore came down to the studio.

2361
02:06:31,400 --> 02:06:35,760
Phil pulled out two files, one full of Coke

2362
02:06:35,760 --> 02:06:37,560
and the other full of heroin.

2363
02:06:37,560 --> 02:06:40,600
Oh my god.

2364
02:06:40,600 --> 02:06:43,080
I remember thinking to myself, they're both white.

2365
02:06:43,080 --> 02:06:46,600
How can you tell which is which?

2366
02:06:46,600 --> 02:06:49,320
I guess by flavor, but at that point, you're committed.

2367
02:06:49,320 --> 02:06:50,720
Yeah, that's what it sounded like.

2368
02:06:50,720 --> 02:06:53,880
It ain't going anywhere.

2369
02:06:53,880 --> 02:06:56,080
Want to hear a story about Richie Blackman?

2370
02:06:56,080 --> 02:06:56,920
Oh, sure.

2371
02:06:56,920 --> 02:06:58,040
OK.

2372
02:06:58,040 --> 02:07:00,600
When I got the gig as a bass player at Deep Purple,

2373
02:07:00,600 --> 02:07:02,280
I was only age 21.

2374
02:07:02,280 --> 02:07:07,200
We went to Clearwell Castle to work on the burnout.

2375
02:07:07,200 --> 02:07:08,840
I told you some of this stuff.

2376
02:07:08,840 --> 02:07:11,440
Richie rigged up my room with hidden speakers.

2377
02:07:11,440 --> 02:07:13,040
In the middle of the night, I woke up

2378
02:07:13,040 --> 02:07:15,360
to the sound of all these ghost noises.

2379
02:07:15,360 --> 02:07:17,440
I was scared shitless.

2380
02:07:17,440 --> 02:07:19,480
The next night, me, Baz Marshall,

2381
02:07:19,480 --> 02:07:23,200
Purple's Roadie, and Richie held the seance.

2382
02:07:23,200 --> 02:07:25,000
Baz was a farmer, and he'd recently

2383
02:07:25,000 --> 02:07:27,320
lost one of his cows.

2384
02:07:27,320 --> 02:07:29,400
We started the seance, and suddenly the room

2385
02:07:29,400 --> 02:07:31,560
echoed with the sound of a cow mooing.

2386
02:07:31,560 --> 02:07:33,080
Oh my god.

2387
02:07:33,080 --> 02:07:35,200
This time, it wasn't a wind up.

2388
02:07:35,200 --> 02:07:37,320
Blackmore freaked out and ran out.

2389
02:07:37,320 --> 02:07:40,160
When it came down to it, he was a bit of a scaredy cat.

2390
02:07:40,160 --> 02:07:41,800
This is his words, not mine.

2391
02:07:41,800 --> 02:07:44,600
But Richie was the king of the prank.

2392
02:07:44,600 --> 02:07:45,400
We all know that.

2393
02:07:45,400 --> 02:07:48,480
Even today, he carries a water pistol around with him.

2394
02:07:48,480 --> 02:07:50,040
Yeah.

2395
02:07:50,040 --> 02:07:54,200
Yeah, he somehow snuck into Cozy Powell's bedroom

2396
02:07:54,200 --> 02:07:57,520
or paid somebody to do it and go set his bed on fire

2397
02:07:57,520 --> 02:08:00,680
as a way of letting it know he was fired from the band.

2398
02:08:00,680 --> 02:08:02,400
So that's kind of a prank he calls.

2399
02:08:02,400 --> 02:08:03,320
Yeah.

2400
02:08:03,320 --> 02:08:05,640
And then with Cozy, however he told me this,

2401
02:08:05,640 --> 02:08:08,320
like the last episode, he said, and then it goes,

2402
02:08:08,320 --> 02:08:09,560
hey, what, Tommy Braxton?

2403
02:08:09,560 --> 02:08:10,920
Oh, you didn't get the message?

2404
02:08:14,000 --> 02:08:16,840
You're fired.

2405
02:08:16,840 --> 02:08:19,080
What a hell of a way to lose your job.

2406
02:08:19,080 --> 02:08:20,080
Oh, I know.

2407
02:08:20,080 --> 02:08:21,920
Not only that, but you probably had to pay

2408
02:08:21,920 --> 02:08:23,200
for the fucking sheets.

2409
02:08:23,200 --> 02:08:24,400
No, probably.

2410
02:08:24,400 --> 02:08:25,680
Like, god, I don't have a job.

2411
02:08:25,680 --> 02:08:27,760
You're making me pay for the sheets?

2412
02:08:27,760 --> 02:08:30,440
The hell?

2413
02:08:30,440 --> 02:08:32,200
Get Amber Heard in there to shit on him.

2414
02:08:32,200 --> 02:08:32,680
Oh, yeah.

2415
02:08:32,680 --> 02:08:33,640
It won't be my fault.

2416
02:08:33,640 --> 02:08:34,320
Yes.

2417
02:08:34,320 --> 02:08:36,080
Oh, I got to bring that Amber one back.

2418
02:08:36,080 --> 02:08:39,000
I've got an Amber Heard parody.

2419
02:08:39,000 --> 02:08:41,600
Well, it's a contraption that you rig up to your bed

2420
02:08:41,600 --> 02:08:43,920
that lets you know.

2421
02:08:43,920 --> 02:08:45,360
Oh, when somebody's crapped in it?

2422
02:08:45,360 --> 02:08:45,880
Yeah.

2423
02:08:45,880 --> 02:08:48,000
And also, if you're going to get pee or anything.

2424
02:08:48,000 --> 02:08:48,760
Crappler.

2425
02:08:48,760 --> 02:08:50,640
There's three different alerts, you know.

2426
02:08:50,640 --> 02:08:54,080
I remember that, three different alerts.

2427
02:08:54,080 --> 02:08:58,600
Let's see, if you pee, poop, and what would the third one be?

2428
02:08:58,600 --> 02:09:00,360
Barf, menstrual blood?

2429
02:09:00,360 --> 02:09:01,040
Probably.

2430
02:09:01,040 --> 02:09:05,000
One was mooring river, and one was like a city noise.

2431
02:09:05,000 --> 02:09:06,240
He had to let you know.

2432
02:09:06,240 --> 02:09:07,640
He would queef the temperature.

2433
02:09:07,640 --> 02:09:10,840
Yeah, I remember Chad, the voice guy.

2434
02:09:10,840 --> 02:09:14,640
He was like, what the fuck?

2435
02:09:14,640 --> 02:09:16,440
And I go, look, it's not in sequence.

2436
02:09:16,440 --> 02:09:20,440
Just say these sentences, and I'll put it together.

2437
02:09:20,440 --> 02:09:22,360
He almost didn't do it.

2438
02:09:22,360 --> 02:09:25,000
Because he does stuff for radio stations and stuff like that.

2439
02:09:25,000 --> 02:09:25,920
And he's like, oh no.

2440
02:09:25,920 --> 02:09:27,520
Damage is where it changes a little bit.

2441
02:09:27,520 --> 02:09:29,840
I told him, I said, approximately three people

2442
02:09:29,840 --> 02:09:31,920
at the time listen to this podcast.

2443
02:09:31,920 --> 02:09:32,880
No one's going to know.

2444
02:09:35,640 --> 02:09:37,640
He did it.

2445
02:09:37,640 --> 02:09:38,520
Footed trooper.

2446
02:09:38,520 --> 02:09:40,920
Yeah, I know.

2447
02:09:40,920 --> 02:09:42,000
I've got to get a hold of him.

2448
02:09:42,000 --> 02:09:47,480
I've got some stuff I want him to do.

2449
02:09:47,480 --> 02:09:56,640
All right, now we're going to go into three chords that are used in a bunch of songs.

2450
02:09:56,640 --> 02:09:59,280
Yeah, tons of songs.

2451
02:09:59,280 --> 02:10:07,480
The three chords I'm choosing today are C, D, and G. And some examples are Ring of Fire

2452
02:10:07,480 --> 02:10:16,240
by Johnny Cash, Leaving on a Jet Plane, John Denver, Royals by Lorde, that was popular

2453
02:10:16,240 --> 02:10:19,960
two years back, Joy to the World, the Christmas song.

2454
02:10:19,960 --> 02:10:22,920
Joy to the world, joy to the world, all those things.

2455
02:10:22,920 --> 02:10:26,640
That's funny, because you would not think of those songs being related at all.

2456
02:10:26,640 --> 02:10:28,240
Yeah.

2457
02:10:28,240 --> 02:10:31,240
I mean, you can play all of these songs with more chords.

2458
02:10:31,240 --> 02:10:35,240
But basically, you can play the whole song with just three chords.

2459
02:10:35,240 --> 02:10:40,080
The Gambler, Kenny Rogers, just those same three chords.

2460
02:10:40,080 --> 02:10:46,640
Can't You See, Marshall Tucker, All Summer Long, Kid Rock, which is based on Werewolves

2461
02:10:46,640 --> 02:10:48,960
of London, by Warren Zeman.

2462
02:10:48,960 --> 02:10:54,040
OK, I think I remember that.

2463
02:10:54,040 --> 02:11:00,440
I Saw the Light, Hank Williams, Feel Like Making Love, by Bad Company.

2464
02:11:00,440 --> 02:11:03,080
Oh, wow.

2465
02:11:03,080 --> 02:11:07,640
Now the Bad Company one I can hear right off, you know, because anyhow.

2466
02:11:07,640 --> 02:11:08,640
Yeah.

2467
02:11:08,640 --> 02:11:28,840
Baby, when I think about you, when I think about love.

2468
02:11:28,840 --> 02:11:34,040
This is D and G back and forth and eventually C gets in there on the chorus, I think.

2469
02:11:34,040 --> 02:11:36,520
Nope, not on the chorus.

2470
02:11:36,520 --> 02:11:37,520
Where's the C come in?

2471
02:11:37,520 --> 02:11:42,040
I'm just seeing G and D all the way through the song.

2472
02:11:42,040 --> 02:11:44,040
Oh, OK, it's in the end of the chorus.

2473
02:11:44,040 --> 02:11:54,440
I'm gonna just feel like, feel like making love to you.

2474
02:11:54,440 --> 02:11:55,440
There it is.

2475
02:11:55,440 --> 02:12:16,640
You know, you also play Rock Me Like a Hurricane.

2476
02:12:16,640 --> 02:12:19,640
That's Blue on Black.

2477
02:12:19,640 --> 02:12:22,040
Same three chords, it's gonna throw an A in there.

2478
02:12:22,040 --> 02:12:23,040
Yeah.

2479
02:12:23,040 --> 02:12:27,920
And then you play Rock Me Like a Hurricane, that is also the rhythm.

2480
02:12:27,920 --> 02:12:30,440
It's not the rhythm, but it's the chord structure.

2481
02:12:30,440 --> 02:12:31,440
Yeah.

2482
02:12:31,440 --> 02:12:32,680
So what else we got?

2483
02:12:32,680 --> 02:12:35,440
Boy Named Sue, by Johnny Cash.

2484
02:12:35,440 --> 02:12:37,880
Seven Bridges Road, by The Eagles.

2485
02:12:37,880 --> 02:12:39,200
Three chords.

2486
02:12:39,200 --> 02:12:40,200
Wow.

2487
02:12:40,200 --> 02:12:42,200
Copperhead Road, by Steve Earle.

2488
02:12:42,200 --> 02:12:43,200
Damn.

2489
02:12:43,200 --> 02:12:44,200
OK.

2490
02:12:44,200 --> 02:12:45,200
That's an awesome song.

2491
02:12:45,200 --> 02:12:46,200
Yeah, it is.

2492
02:12:46,200 --> 02:12:47,200
Hotel Yorba, by The White Stripes.

2493
02:12:47,200 --> 02:12:48,200
Blowing in the Wind, Bob Dylan.

2494
02:12:48,200 --> 02:13:02,040
Let's see, Love on the Weekend, John Mayer.

2495
02:13:02,040 --> 02:13:04,000
Kelly Clarkson's A Moment Like This.

2496
02:13:04,000 --> 02:13:05,000
OK.

2497
02:13:05,000 --> 02:13:06,000
Ravon, Buddy Holly.

2498
02:13:06,000 --> 02:13:07,000
She Sells Sanctuary, the Cult.

2499
02:13:07,000 --> 02:13:08,000
Wow.

2500
02:13:08,000 --> 02:13:09,000
Let's try that one.

2501
02:13:09,000 --> 02:13:10,000
Yeah, yeah.

2502
02:13:10,000 --> 02:13:11,000
Now there's a bunch of individual note-pickers.

2503
02:13:11,000 --> 02:13:18,000
Yeah, yeah.

2504
02:13:18,000 --> 02:13:28,680
Billy Watts' name does a lot of that.

2505
02:13:28,680 --> 02:13:42,200
Yeah, Billy Watts.

2506
02:13:42,200 --> 02:13:48,360
I don't know the song, but it's basically DCG, DCG, DCG, all the way through the verse.

2507
02:13:48,360 --> 02:13:51,400
Yeah, most of that is on the chorus anyhow.

2508
02:13:51,400 --> 02:13:56,480
Yeah, and I don't know the strumming pattern.

2509
02:13:56,480 --> 02:13:57,480
Let's see.

2510
02:13:57,480 --> 02:13:59,080
The Music Box, by The Who.

2511
02:13:59,080 --> 02:14:02,080
Mama's got a squeeze box, she plays on the chest.

2512
02:14:02,080 --> 02:14:05,080
And when daddy gets home, he never gets no rest.

2513
02:14:05,080 --> 02:14:06,080
He's playing all night, playing all night.

2514
02:14:06,080 --> 02:14:07,080
And the music's all right, music all right.

2515
02:14:07,080 --> 02:14:08,080
Mama's got a squeeze box, daddy never sleeps at night.

2516
02:14:08,080 --> 02:14:09,080
Three chords, DC and G.

2517
02:14:09,080 --> 02:14:10,080
Great song, too.

2518
02:14:10,080 --> 02:14:11,080
Yeah.

2519
02:14:11,080 --> 02:14:12,080
Great song.

2520
02:14:12,080 --> 02:14:13,080
Hang On, Snoopy, by The McCoys.

2521
02:14:13,080 --> 02:14:14,080
There's the 60s.

2522
02:14:14,080 --> 02:14:15,080
Yep, yep.

2523
02:14:15,080 --> 02:14:16,080
Boys of Summer, Don Henley.

2524
02:14:16,080 --> 02:14:17,080
Oh, we do.

2525
02:14:17,080 --> 02:14:18,080
Yeah.

2526
02:14:18,080 --> 02:14:28,840
DCG.

2527
02:14:28,840 --> 02:14:29,840
Let's see if I can get that one.

2528
02:14:29,840 --> 02:14:30,840
I'm gonna call up the tab here.

2529
02:14:30,840 --> 02:14:50,800
So it just alternates back and forth.

2530
02:14:50,800 --> 02:14:53,800
Of course, the rest of the song is doing a whole lot more, so.

2531
02:14:53,800 --> 02:15:00,480
This is kind of like the Campfire version of Boys of Summer.

2532
02:15:00,480 --> 02:15:03,240
Six Days on the Road, Dave Dudley.

2533
02:15:03,240 --> 02:15:07,880
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight.

2534
02:15:07,880 --> 02:15:11,200
If I Were a Carpenter, Bobby Darin.

2535
02:15:11,200 --> 02:15:14,520
I'm only about halfway through this list.

2536
02:15:14,520 --> 02:15:15,520
They just go on and on.

2537
02:15:15,520 --> 02:15:16,520
Quinn the Eskimo by Bob Dylan.

2538
02:15:16,520 --> 02:15:17,520
Row Your Boat.

2539
02:15:17,520 --> 02:15:18,520
Row, row, row your boat.

2540
02:15:18,520 --> 02:15:19,520
They share just the, I mean, all these songs just use those exact same chords.

2541
02:15:19,520 --> 02:15:20,520
You just play them in a different order and you alter the structure.

2542
02:15:20,520 --> 02:15:31,800
Wow.

2543
02:15:31,800 --> 02:15:34,800
That's all you need to do and you can get all these songs.

2544
02:15:34,800 --> 02:15:37,800
Heroes by the Wall of Flowers.

2545
02:15:37,800 --> 02:15:42,000
Hot Legs by Rod Stewart.

2546
02:15:42,000 --> 02:15:45,000
Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road by New Dawn Wainwright.

2547
02:15:45,000 --> 02:15:46,000
Okay.

2548
02:15:46,000 --> 02:15:49,000
Let's see, oh that was a little Red Rooster.

2549
02:15:49,000 --> 02:15:51,000
Go back.

2550
02:15:51,000 --> 02:15:53,000
Go back.

2551
02:15:53,000 --> 02:15:55,000
Dead Skunk.

2552
02:15:55,000 --> 02:16:01,000
Let's try Dead Skunk.

2553
02:16:01,000 --> 02:16:03,000
Sir GDC.

2554
02:16:03,000 --> 02:16:07,000
I was in the highway last night.

2555
02:16:07,000 --> 02:16:10,000
Sugar Red Flat Panties, Sugar Red Flies.

2556
02:16:10,000 --> 02:16:14,000
I have to do the chorus.

2557
02:16:14,000 --> 02:16:19,000
Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road.

2558
02:16:19,000 --> 02:16:22,000
Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road.

2559
02:16:22,000 --> 02:16:25,000
Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road.

2560
02:16:25,000 --> 02:16:28,000
I'm speaking high.

2561
02:16:28,000 --> 02:16:29,000
So it's kind of...

2562
02:16:29,000 --> 02:16:33,000
Yeah, that's good.

2563
02:16:33,000 --> 02:16:35,000
It's kind of doing that pattern.

2564
02:16:35,000 --> 02:16:40,000
It's been forever since I've heard the song and I'm not a singer anyway so.

2565
02:16:40,000 --> 02:16:42,000
Everyone have pity on me.

2566
02:16:42,000 --> 02:16:44,000
Old time rock and roll, Bob Seeger.

2567
02:16:44,000 --> 02:16:48,000
Just take those old records off the shelf.

2568
02:16:48,000 --> 02:16:50,000
Let's just...

2569
02:16:50,000 --> 02:16:51,000
I play that ability.

2570
02:16:51,000 --> 02:16:53,000
It hangs in G.

2571
02:16:53,000 --> 02:16:58,000
Just take those old records off the shelf.

2572
02:16:58,000 --> 02:17:01,000
Listen to my soul.

2573
02:17:01,000 --> 02:17:04,000
The music ain't the same.

2574
02:17:04,000 --> 02:17:08,000
So I like that old time rock and roll.

2575
02:17:08,000 --> 02:17:12,000
Don't try to take me to a disco.

2576
02:17:12,000 --> 02:17:16,000
You never get me out on the floor.

2577
02:17:16,000 --> 02:17:19,000
In ten minutes I'll be late for the door.

2578
02:17:19,000 --> 02:17:23,000
I like that old time rock and roll.

2579
02:17:23,000 --> 02:17:26,000
I still like that old time rock and roll.

2580
02:17:26,000 --> 02:17:28,000
Yeah, there it is.

2581
02:17:28,000 --> 02:17:30,000
That's the D.

2582
02:17:30,000 --> 02:17:34,000
G.

2583
02:17:34,000 --> 02:17:36,000
There's the C.

2584
02:17:36,000 --> 02:17:38,000
Just those three chords.

2585
02:17:38,000 --> 02:17:40,000
Just those three.

2586
02:17:40,000 --> 02:17:44,000
You can do the whole song.

2587
02:17:44,000 --> 02:17:48,000
I'm trying to find ones that most people would know.

2588
02:17:48,000 --> 02:17:53,000
The School of Rock title song.

2589
02:17:53,000 --> 02:17:57,000
Those three exact chords.

2590
02:17:57,000 --> 02:18:02,000
I've got another list that's three slightly different chords.

2591
02:18:02,000 --> 02:18:06,000
I've got another huge list of four chord songs.

2592
02:18:06,000 --> 02:18:10,000
Really, there's like 70, 80 songs on this list.

2593
02:18:10,000 --> 02:18:14,000
If you learn C, D, and G, you can play all those songs.

2594
02:18:14,000 --> 02:18:18,000
It's just the strumming that is totally different.

2595
02:18:18,000 --> 02:18:22,000
If you think about it, there's a limited number of chords.

2596
02:18:22,000 --> 02:18:24,000
There's a limited number of notes even.

2597
02:18:24,000 --> 02:18:28,000
There's a limited number of everything that you can play on a guitar.

2598
02:18:28,000 --> 02:18:31,000
What's not limited is the rhythm.

2599
02:18:31,000 --> 02:18:33,000
Yeah, the...

2600
02:18:33,000 --> 02:18:37,000
Leaving stuff out, putting extra stuff in.

2601
02:18:37,000 --> 02:18:41,000
It's all ways to do it differently.

2602
02:18:41,000 --> 02:18:45,000
That's another reason too. If you ever hear the back beat on a song...

2603
02:18:45,000 --> 02:18:47,000
I'm trying to think of how to describe it.

2604
02:18:47,000 --> 02:18:49,000
Maybe you can describe it better.

2605
02:18:49,000 --> 02:18:52,000
You can hear the bass on a song and know what it is.

2606
02:18:52,000 --> 02:18:57,000
Let's say someone's in another building listening to it.

2607
02:18:57,000 --> 02:19:01,000
The reason is because that is the outline of the song.

2608
02:19:01,000 --> 02:19:04,000
That's the outline. That's the skeleton of the song.

2609
02:19:04,000 --> 02:19:06,000
Basically, yeah.

2610
02:19:06,000 --> 02:19:12,000
Then the guitar is usually a byproduct of that, is what I would say.

2611
02:19:12,000 --> 02:19:13,000
Yeah.

2612
02:19:13,000 --> 02:19:18,000
The guitarist has a little bit more freedom than the other guys do.

2613
02:19:18,000 --> 02:19:22,000
The bass player and the drummer have to basically be each other's work wife.

2614
02:19:22,000 --> 02:19:24,000
Yes.

2615
02:19:24,000 --> 02:19:29,000
Then the guitarist comes in and then he adds his own flair to the song.

2616
02:19:29,000 --> 02:19:33,000
But it's still the basic rhythm and the basic beat of whatever that is.

2617
02:19:33,000 --> 02:19:37,000
That's what makes some guitarists so good and some of them kind of plain.

2618
02:19:37,000 --> 02:19:39,000
Is that right there?

2619
02:19:39,000 --> 02:19:45,000
Yeah, and realistically the rhythm guitar is kind of halfway between the lead guitar and the bass.

2620
02:19:45,000 --> 02:19:49,000
Rhythm guitar, we talked about this before, is so underrated.

2621
02:19:49,000 --> 02:19:56,000
Rhythm guitarists, I mean there are guitarists that are just so good that are rhythm guitarists.

2622
02:19:56,000 --> 02:20:01,000
But they're doing it by choice, not because they're not good enough to do the lead.

2623
02:20:01,000 --> 02:20:05,000
This is what their passion is, is to come up with the meat and potatoes of the song.

2624
02:20:05,000 --> 02:20:07,000
Yeah, and the same with bass players.

2625
02:20:07,000 --> 02:20:10,000
People think bass players are just because they can't play guitar.

2626
02:20:10,000 --> 02:20:12,000
Well, a lot of them can play guitar really well.

2627
02:20:12,000 --> 02:20:13,000
A lot of them do play guitar, yes.

2628
02:20:13,000 --> 02:20:16,000
They'd rather play bass. They like that basic foundation.

2629
02:20:16,000 --> 02:20:21,000
You know what, that's what I'm going to do next is guitar players that play bass.

2630
02:20:21,000 --> 02:20:26,000
I'm going to look that up for the next episode because there's a ton of them.

2631
02:20:26,000 --> 02:20:33,000
Because a lot of the bass players, if you see their name on the song credit,

2632
02:20:33,000 --> 02:20:36,000
it's because a lot of times they came up with the guitar part.

2633
02:20:36,000 --> 02:20:38,000
Yeah, yeah.

2634
02:20:38,000 --> 02:20:43,000
Cadillac Ranch by Bruce Springsteen.

2635
02:20:43,000 --> 02:20:45,000
Oh, I believe that, yeah.

2636
02:20:45,000 --> 02:20:49,000
There she sits, kind of just a-cleanin' in the sun.

2637
02:20:49,000 --> 02:20:52,000
And a-great a-workin' man when his day is done.

2638
02:20:52,000 --> 02:20:56,000
He's gonna pack my ball and gonna pack my hand.

2639
02:20:56,000 --> 02:20:59,000
Gonna pack my hand, gonna pack my hand.

2640
02:20:59,000 --> 02:21:00,000
There it is.

2641
02:21:00,000 --> 02:21:01,000
Very good.

2642
02:21:01,000 --> 02:21:04,000
They just do that over and over for about three and a half minutes.

2643
02:21:04,000 --> 02:21:07,000
You shook me all night long, AC, DC.

2644
02:21:07,000 --> 02:21:08,000
All night?

2645
02:21:08,000 --> 02:21:09,000
DC and G.

2646
02:21:09,000 --> 02:21:10,000
Yep.

2647
02:21:10,000 --> 02:21:14,000
And we're talking about the rhythm, not the stuff that Angus does that.

2648
02:21:14,000 --> 02:21:17,000
Oh yeah, there's all sorts of note picking and the thing.

2649
02:21:17,000 --> 02:21:18,000
Yeah.

2650
02:21:28,000 --> 02:21:31,000
I haven't played my acoustic in forever, so.

2651
02:21:31,000 --> 02:21:37,000
Anyway, so you've got the, I'm finally at the bottom of this list.

2652
02:21:37,000 --> 02:21:46,000
And I've got a second list just as long, the song's based on A, D, and G.

2653
02:21:46,000 --> 02:21:49,000
Instead of C, D, and G.

2654
02:21:49,000 --> 02:21:53,000
Drop the C and replace it with an A.

2655
02:21:53,000 --> 02:21:55,000
List just as long.

2656
02:21:55,000 --> 02:21:58,000
It's amazing, that's all you really need is three chords.

2657
02:21:58,000 --> 02:22:00,000
Yeah.

2658
02:22:00,000 --> 02:22:08,000
There was a joke with music reviewers that they would complain that some musicians were four chord musicians.

2659
02:22:08,000 --> 02:22:13,000
And it's not like the fourth chord of the scale, they're talking about the only note four chords.

2660
02:22:13,000 --> 02:22:17,000
But realistically, for a ton of songs, that's all you need.

2661
02:22:17,000 --> 02:22:19,000
It really is.

2662
02:22:19,000 --> 02:22:27,000
Pop music, pop music, that's what you need because it's a familiarity that people, when they hear the song,

2663
02:22:27,000 --> 02:22:31,000
it brings something in them that they kind of know and remember.

2664
02:22:31,000 --> 02:22:34,000
Yeah, and there's a lot of repetition, so it makes it easy.

2665
02:22:34,000 --> 02:22:38,000
And then, I've been trying to work on that, is it that wish you were here?

2666
02:22:38,000 --> 02:22:57,000
Uh-huh.

2667
02:23:08,000 --> 02:23:18,000
You got it down pretty good.

2668
02:23:18,000 --> 02:23:22,000
And then it starts over from there, but that main chord, that's the G.

2669
02:23:22,000 --> 02:23:26,000
That's the E suspended.

2670
02:23:26,000 --> 02:23:30,000
And that's the A suspended.

2671
02:23:30,000 --> 02:23:36,000
But the ring finger and pinky never move from where they are on the guitar neck.

2672
02:23:36,000 --> 02:23:41,000
They're both on the third fret on the sixth string and on the first string and second fret.

2673
02:23:41,000 --> 02:23:43,000
They're doing that the whole time.

2674
02:23:43,000 --> 02:23:47,000
You never have to move, you just move your other two fingers.

2675
02:23:47,000 --> 02:23:48,000
Very cool.

2676
02:23:48,000 --> 02:23:52,000
Yeah, I saw a guy on YouTube, you know, pick that out and I thought, I can do that.

2677
02:23:52,000 --> 02:23:56,000
So I went and grabbed my guitar and I just started following his fingers.

2678
02:23:56,000 --> 02:24:04,000
And the more I do it, the more smooth and easy it gets.

2679
02:24:04,000 --> 02:24:08,000
But the first few times I tried it, it was barely recognizable.

2680
02:24:08,000 --> 02:24:13,000
Well, I mean, it's really hard to hold the two fingers and move the other fingers.

2681
02:24:13,000 --> 02:24:19,000
You wouldn't think it would be that hard, but I've tried that before on the guitar.

2682
02:24:19,000 --> 02:24:26,000
And that, it doesn't seem complicated, but it's very complicated to do because your hand does not want to do that.

2683
02:24:26,000 --> 02:24:28,000
You have to train it to do that.

2684
02:24:28,000 --> 02:24:35,000
Yeah, you look at one of your fingers and say move just that finger from there to over there and don't hit anything on the way.

2685
02:24:35,000 --> 02:24:37,000
It's a whole new story in there.

2686
02:24:37,000 --> 02:24:38,000
Yeah, it's not easy.

2687
02:24:38,000 --> 02:24:39,000
Your hand doesn't like to do that.

2688
02:24:39,000 --> 02:24:41,000
Your hand's used to picking stuff up, writing.

2689
02:24:41,000 --> 02:24:47,000
It's not used to, okay, you two carry out this rhythm while you two sit here.

2690
02:24:47,000 --> 02:24:52,000
Yeah, it takes some training.

2691
02:24:52,000 --> 02:25:01,000
You know, with my hands, I'm used to just varying the amount of grip strength I have on the sticks and exactly where I'm holding them.

2692
02:25:01,000 --> 02:25:06,000
And that really alters how I play and how fast I play and how I control the rolls and stuff.

2693
02:25:06,000 --> 02:25:11,000
So that's more just a matter of altering the pressure on my hands.

2694
02:25:11,000 --> 02:25:15,000
But then learning to actually use different fingers and put them on the right string.

2695
02:25:15,000 --> 02:25:21,000
And then if I'm looking at my right hand, on my left hand on the strings, my right hand has to be picking the correct string.

2696
02:25:21,000 --> 02:25:24,000
Which I don't always do, but I'm getting better at.

2697
02:25:24,000 --> 02:25:34,000
Well, this is stuff like, even people that were just born into guitar, because I know plenty of them, they pick up a guitar and just start playing.

2698
02:25:34,000 --> 02:25:36,000
I mean, basically like that.

2699
02:25:36,000 --> 02:25:39,000
They're like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, here's how you play this.

2700
02:25:39,000 --> 02:25:43,000
I know so many people that just walk up and go, oh, okay, here.

2701
02:25:43,000 --> 02:25:45,000
It's like, how the fuck did you do that?

2702
02:25:45,000 --> 02:25:46,000
And they couldn't even name you the chord.

2703
02:25:46,000 --> 02:25:48,000
They just go, oh, here it is.

2704
02:25:48,000 --> 02:25:53,000
Yeah, I'm starting to learn. I'm not really learning what notes are where.

2705
02:25:53,000 --> 02:25:59,000
But if I'm on a certain note, I'm starting to learn like, okay, I want this other note next.

2706
02:25:59,000 --> 02:26:01,000
And I think I know where it is.

2707
02:26:01,000 --> 02:26:03,000
And just this string on that fret.

2708
02:26:03,000 --> 02:26:04,000
And a lot of the time I'm right.

2709
02:26:04,000 --> 02:26:05,000
I don't know what note it is.

2710
02:26:05,000 --> 02:26:07,000
I don't know what interval I'm moving.

2711
02:26:07,000 --> 02:26:09,000
It's just, here's the sound I want.

2712
02:26:09,000 --> 02:26:10,000
Here's where I get.

2713
02:26:10,000 --> 02:26:11,000
It's something you pick up on, yeah.

2714
02:26:11,000 --> 02:26:12,000
Yeah, yeah.

2715
02:26:12,000 --> 02:26:19,000
That's the essence of learning to play by ear.

2716
02:26:19,000 --> 02:26:22,000
What was I going to demonstrate?

2717
02:26:22,000 --> 02:26:25,000
I picked up my guitar for no reason whatsoever.

2718
02:26:25,000 --> 02:26:27,000
Yeah, I don't know.

2719
02:26:27,000 --> 02:26:29,000
You had a lick on your face like you were getting ready to go somewhere.

2720
02:26:29,000 --> 02:26:31,000
Then all of a sudden you're just gone.

2721
02:26:31,000 --> 02:26:32,000
Yeah.

2722
02:26:32,000 --> 02:26:33,000
Short term memory.

2723
02:26:33,000 --> 02:26:34,000
I've done that so many times.

2724
02:26:34,000 --> 02:26:39,000
I had several serious head injuries as a kid.

2725
02:26:39,000 --> 02:26:40,000
So that's why I blame all this.

2726
02:26:40,000 --> 02:26:43,000
Same here.

2727
02:26:43,000 --> 02:26:45,000
And let me say, untreated head injuries.

2728
02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:46,000
Untreated.

2729
02:26:46,000 --> 02:26:49,000
Back then nobody knew what a concussion was.

2730
02:26:49,000 --> 02:26:51,000
It was like, oh, you just got your bell rung.

2731
02:26:51,000 --> 02:26:54,000
Go sleep it off.

2732
02:26:54,000 --> 02:26:59,000
So I think I just went and slept off a couple of concussions in my youth.

2733
02:26:59,000 --> 02:27:01,000
That has altered my brain quite significantly.

2734
02:27:01,000 --> 02:27:03,000
I think that's happened to me too.

2735
02:27:03,000 --> 02:27:05,000
I think it's scrambled a little bit.

2736
02:27:05,000 --> 02:27:06,000
Yeah.

2737
02:27:06,000 --> 02:27:11,000
But as far as you just pick up a guitar and you can start making sounds,

2738
02:27:11,000 --> 02:27:25,000
it's like you start learning the intervals.

2739
02:27:25,000 --> 02:27:26,000
I'm just playing two strings.

2740
02:27:26,000 --> 02:27:29,000
I'm playing this one over and over with my thumb.

2741
02:27:29,000 --> 02:27:44,000
And this one, we're playing together, it sounds nice.

2742
02:27:44,000 --> 02:27:46,000
But it's just learning the intervals.

2743
02:27:46,000 --> 02:27:51,000
It's like from here I go down two, we go down two more, and then go down one.

2744
02:27:51,000 --> 02:27:58,000
Then go down two, and then lift my finger off.

2745
02:27:58,000 --> 02:28:01,000
And then I'll just sit down and do that for like five minutes or so.

2746
02:28:01,000 --> 02:28:11,000
Just play around and come up with different patterns where I don't want to go change to a different string.

2747
02:28:11,000 --> 02:28:27,000
Now I have to go down one step.

2748
02:28:27,000 --> 02:28:29,000
And then I'll just play around like that.

2749
02:28:29,000 --> 02:28:35,000
And it sounds pretty and there's really nothing to it, but it helps you memorize the neck.

2750
02:28:35,000 --> 02:28:38,000
It's like, oh, this string sounds good right here.

2751
02:28:38,000 --> 02:28:40,000
And these two notes go together.

2752
02:28:40,000 --> 02:28:49,000
And really without even trying to memorize it just by doing it on almost a daily basis, I just remember.

2753
02:28:49,000 --> 02:28:55,000
I don't really know what notes I'm playing or the intervals or what scale I'm at.

2754
02:28:55,000 --> 02:28:58,000
It's like, I'm just playing by ear.

2755
02:28:58,000 --> 02:29:00,000
And if nothing else, it's fun.

2756
02:29:00,000 --> 02:29:04,000
It helps build up the calluses on my fingers so I can play better.

2757
02:29:04,000 --> 02:29:07,000
But I always keep the guitar somewhere near me.

2758
02:29:07,000 --> 02:29:11,000
So no matter what I'm doing, I can just pick it up and just put my hands on it.

2759
02:29:11,000 --> 02:29:12,000
That's a good idea.

2760
02:29:12,000 --> 02:29:16,000
Just practice fingering it and just getting very familiar with the instrument.

2761
02:29:16,000 --> 02:29:19,000
That's what Stevie Ray Vaughan did as a kid growing up.

2762
02:29:19,000 --> 02:29:22,000
You never, ever saw him without a guitar in his hands.

2763
02:29:22,000 --> 02:29:23,000
He took it everywhere.

2764
02:29:23,000 --> 02:29:25,000
And he was constantly just dinking around about it.

2765
02:29:25,000 --> 02:29:27,000
Not even plugged in, just playing it.

2766
02:29:27,000 --> 02:29:30,000
And that's how he knew it, just backwards and forwards.

2767
02:29:30,000 --> 02:29:31,000
He could make all those things.

2768
02:29:31,000 --> 02:29:34,000
I'll never get anywhere near that good on guitar.

2769
02:29:34,000 --> 02:29:36,000
But I'm having a blast.

2770
02:29:36,000 --> 02:29:37,000
That's all that matters.

2771
02:29:37,000 --> 02:29:40,000
I'd love to see where Stevie Ray Vaughan would have been.

2772
02:29:40,000 --> 02:29:41,000
You know, I mean.

2773
02:29:41,000 --> 02:29:45,000
Yeah, would he have changed his genre of music a little bit?

2774
02:29:45,000 --> 02:29:50,000
Would he have gotten kind of, you know, I'll still do the Texas blues, but maybe I'll do this too.

2775
02:29:50,000 --> 02:29:55,000
Yeah, I mean he had the ability to go to a variety of other things.

2776
02:29:55,000 --> 02:30:02,000
It would have been interesting to see if he would actually, you know, just be like, you know, I think I'm going to progress into this or that.

2777
02:30:02,000 --> 02:30:04,000
Or maybe even more mainstream.

2778
02:30:04,000 --> 02:30:09,000
About the only opportunity you have to hear something like that is David Bowie's album, Let's Dance.

2779
02:30:09,000 --> 02:30:12,000
That was Stevie Ray on guitar on that whole album.

2780
02:30:12,000 --> 02:30:14,000
And he did the tour with it too.

2781
02:30:14,000 --> 02:30:15,000
Oh, was he?

2782
02:30:15,000 --> 02:30:16,000
Yeah, yeah.

2783
02:30:16,000 --> 02:30:19,000
I can't remember if I knew that or not, but if I did.

2784
02:30:19,000 --> 02:30:21,000
Yeah, that was Stevie Ray.

2785
02:30:21,000 --> 02:30:24,000
And in the music videos, David Bowie pretended like he was playing it.

2786
02:30:24,000 --> 02:30:28,000
He was panimiming to Stevie Ray's actual lead.

2787
02:30:28,000 --> 02:30:31,000
Could Bowie play guitar?

2788
02:30:31,000 --> 02:30:33,000
Yeah, yeah, he could actually play.

2789
02:30:33,000 --> 02:30:36,000
And then they did the Serious Moonlight Tour.

2790
02:30:36,000 --> 02:30:38,000
That's how they named the tour.

2791
02:30:38,000 --> 02:30:41,000
And Stevie Ray went on the tour with him and played the whole tour.

2792
02:30:41,000 --> 02:30:44,000
And that was when he said, I'll never work for that man again.

2793
02:30:44,000 --> 02:30:46,000
He's a miserable, cheap son of a bitch.

2794
02:30:46,000 --> 02:30:50,000
He paid us face union scale, the very minimum you could possibly pay us.

2795
02:30:50,000 --> 02:30:52,000
Really, David Bowie did?

2796
02:30:52,000 --> 02:30:54,000
He was real tight with money.

2797
02:30:54,000 --> 02:30:55,000
Wow.

2798
02:30:55,000 --> 02:30:56,000
Yeah.

2799
02:30:56,000 --> 02:30:59,000
If you were a hired musician playing your instrument.

2800
02:30:59,000 --> 02:31:00,000
I'd rather be playing in his house.

2801
02:31:00,000 --> 02:31:03,000
Yeah, it's just like saving money everywhere he could.

2802
02:31:03,000 --> 02:31:05,000
Wow.

2803
02:31:05,000 --> 02:31:12,000
But check out that album, Let's Dance, China Girl.

2804
02:31:12,000 --> 02:31:15,000
What are some of the songs on that?

2805
02:31:15,000 --> 02:31:17,000
That's all Stevie Ray.

2806
02:31:17,000 --> 02:31:21,000
And once you go back and listen to it, it's like, oh yeah, I can definitely tell that's Stevie Ray.

2807
02:31:21,000 --> 02:31:23,000
I hear some of her right now.

2808
02:31:23,000 --> 02:31:26,000
But it's such a different style of music from what he usually played.

2809
02:31:26,000 --> 02:31:30,000
Yeah, like the hook on China Girl, I guess you can tell that is Stevie Ray.

2810
02:31:30,000 --> 02:31:34,000
Yeah.

2811
02:31:34,000 --> 02:31:35,000
Yeah.

2812
02:31:35,000 --> 02:31:37,000
Yeah, I get it now.

2813
02:31:37,000 --> 02:31:40,000
And then the long solo at the end of Let's Dance.

2814
02:31:40,000 --> 02:31:41,000
Yeah.

2815
02:31:41,000 --> 02:31:42,000
Yeah.

2816
02:31:42,000 --> 02:31:43,000
I guess I never thought of it like that before.

2817
02:31:43,000 --> 02:31:46,000
I guess you could put on your red shoes and dance the blues.

2818
02:31:46,000 --> 02:31:48,000
He is a good songwriter.

2819
02:31:48,000 --> 02:31:49,000
Yeah.

2820
02:31:49,000 --> 02:31:51,000
But we knew how to turn the phrase, that's for sure.

2821
02:31:51,000 --> 02:31:53,000
Oh, he did, definitely.

2822
02:31:53,000 --> 02:31:55,000
I'm watching the progression of the snow.

2823
02:31:55,000 --> 02:31:56,000
Yeah.

2824
02:31:56,000 --> 02:31:58,000
It's pretty interesting, too.

2825
02:31:58,000 --> 02:32:01,000
It's like very small flights, but there's a ton of them.

2826
02:32:01,000 --> 02:32:03,000
Yeah, yeah.

2827
02:32:03,000 --> 02:32:06,000
Fortunately, this is the kind of snow that you get out there with any kind of decent leaf blowing.

2828
02:32:06,000 --> 02:32:08,000
You blow it off, yeah.

2829
02:32:08,000 --> 02:32:10,000
And also driving on it is good.

2830
02:32:10,000 --> 02:32:13,000
Yeah, it's just like be a little bit more careful, you're okay.

2831
02:32:13,000 --> 02:32:14,000
Yeah.

2832
02:32:14,000 --> 02:32:18,000
Cindy said she slipped and slid a little bit on the way to work, but it wasn't too bad.

2833
02:32:18,000 --> 02:32:26,000
Well, that's good because up north, I guess there's like a couple of trucks off on the freeways screwing everything up.

2834
02:32:26,000 --> 02:32:27,000
Yeah.

2835
02:32:27,000 --> 02:32:28,000
Yeah.

2836
02:32:28,000 --> 02:32:32,000
Not every truck driver you see has experience driving in snow.

2837
02:32:32,000 --> 02:32:33,000
No.

2838
02:32:33,000 --> 02:32:36,000
Some of them have driven in warm weather for much of their career.

2839
02:32:36,000 --> 02:32:38,000
Yeah, and then they hit this shit and they're like, whoa.

2840
02:32:38,000 --> 02:32:39,000
Yeah.

2841
02:32:39,000 --> 02:32:40,000
And they're like, oh, that's nice.

2842
02:32:40,000 --> 02:32:41,000
Yeah.

2843
02:32:41,000 --> 02:32:45,000
So just because they're a truck driver doesn't mean they can drive in all conditions or have that skill.

2844
02:32:45,000 --> 02:32:49,000
You know the ones that do because they have tire chains.

2845
02:32:49,000 --> 02:32:50,000
Oh, yeah.

2846
02:32:50,000 --> 02:32:54,000
And the tire chains will pretty much make sure that they're not going to slip.

2847
02:32:54,000 --> 02:32:55,000
Yeah.

2848
02:32:55,000 --> 02:33:02,000
The chains, I guess, are designed to give traction into the snow and ice, right?

2849
02:33:02,000 --> 02:33:06,000
Yeah, it acts like the teeth of a gear where it just like cuts in.

2850
02:33:06,000 --> 02:33:07,000
Yeah.

2851
02:33:07,000 --> 02:33:12,000
And it gives you like a little notch in the snow that you can push against instead of just the surface.

2852
02:33:12,000 --> 02:33:13,000
Yeah.

2853
02:33:13,000 --> 02:33:15,000
So that's why the chains have to be big enough.

2854
02:33:15,000 --> 02:33:21,000
You know, some of them I've seen sold in stores, they're like not chains but cables.

2855
02:33:21,000 --> 02:33:22,000
Yeah, no, those.

2856
02:33:22,000 --> 02:33:24,000
And they're like not even as big around as the pencil.

2857
02:33:24,000 --> 02:33:26,000
It's like that's not going to do you a damn thing.

2858
02:33:26,000 --> 02:33:27,000
Yeah.

2859
02:33:27,000 --> 02:33:28,000
You know.

2860
02:33:28,000 --> 02:33:32,000
They just make something that looks like something that people would buy.

2861
02:33:32,000 --> 02:33:33,000
Yeah, VUCA.

2862
02:33:33,000 --> 02:33:34,000
Oh, yeah.

2863
02:33:34,000 --> 02:33:35,000
Doesn't mean it's going to work.

2864
02:33:35,000 --> 02:33:37,000
It's a new design, it's a cable.

2865
02:33:37,000 --> 02:33:38,000
Yeah.

2866
02:33:38,000 --> 02:33:39,000
Yeah.

2867
02:33:39,000 --> 02:33:43,000
Yeah, but a lot of trucks, they'll have tire chains.

2868
02:33:43,000 --> 02:33:45,000
And then when they start running into this, they'll stop.

2869
02:33:45,000 --> 02:33:47,000
But these are people that know them.

2870
02:33:47,000 --> 02:33:50,000
The ones that don't are just like, how bad can it be?

2871
02:33:50,000 --> 02:33:53,000
And they'll just say, walk in 635 for three hours.

2872
02:33:53,000 --> 02:33:54,000
Yeah.

2873
02:33:54,000 --> 02:34:00,000
And then there are sections of highway that are just banked incorrectly and cars just tend to slide off.

2874
02:34:00,000 --> 02:34:06,000
Some of them just make so stupidly, I mean, I don't know if that's a word.

2875
02:34:06,000 --> 02:34:11,000
And even if it's not banked incorrectly, say when you've got one that's banked correctly,

2876
02:34:11,000 --> 02:34:15,000
but it's banked for someone to take it at 70 miles an hour, which is highway speed.

2877
02:34:15,000 --> 02:34:19,000
So if you're crawling along at 20, you're sliding sideways down that bank.

2878
02:34:19,000 --> 02:34:20,000
Yeah, that's true.

2879
02:34:20,000 --> 02:34:21,000
So that could be a problem too.

2880
02:34:21,000 --> 02:34:22,000
210's like that.

2881
02:34:22,000 --> 02:34:28,000
210 up near the river on, let's see, it would be the west side of 435.

2882
02:34:28,000 --> 02:34:30,000
It's banked like that.

2883
02:34:30,000 --> 02:34:33,000
And I don't know why they banked it like that.

2884
02:34:33,000 --> 02:34:35,000
They could have leveled it out, but they didn't.

2885
02:34:35,000 --> 02:34:38,000
All the roads in Wyandotte County.

2886
02:34:38,000 --> 02:34:39,000
Or banked like that, yeah.

2887
02:34:39,000 --> 02:34:42,000
At least all the ones that I rode when I was delivering mail.

2888
02:34:42,000 --> 02:34:47,000
It's like they're super high right in the middle and they slope very noticeably towards the edges.

2889
02:34:47,000 --> 02:34:49,000
And there's no curves.

2890
02:34:49,000 --> 02:34:51,000
There's just a hitch that the rain part.

2891
02:34:51,000 --> 02:34:57,000
So yeah, so when there's snow and ice, I'm trying to drive up the road and stop for a mailbox.

2892
02:34:57,000 --> 02:35:01,000
And as soon as I hit the brakes, I start sliding sideways into the mailbox.

2893
02:35:01,000 --> 02:35:06,000
That and their number are north and south and there's a lot of diagonal.

2894
02:35:06,000 --> 02:35:07,000
Yeah.

2895
02:35:07,000 --> 02:35:08,000
Yeah.

2896
02:35:08,000 --> 02:35:10,000
Doesn't make sense at all.

2897
02:35:10,000 --> 02:35:18,000
A lot of those days in KCK when I was delivering, I would just drive up the exact middle of the road.

2898
02:35:18,000 --> 02:35:20,000
Because nobody else was out anyway.

2899
02:35:20,000 --> 02:35:23,000
And I'd drive right in the middle so I wouldn't slide either direction.

2900
02:35:23,000 --> 02:35:26,000
And then I'd just get out and walk over the mailbox and the other curbside,

2901
02:35:26,000 --> 02:35:29,000
which I was supposed to be able to deliver from my window.

2902
02:35:29,000 --> 02:35:35,000
But it's like if I drove over there, I'm going to wipe out every mailbox on this street.

2903
02:35:35,000 --> 02:35:37,000
Val did that a couple of times.

2904
02:35:37,000 --> 02:35:38,000
Yeah.

2905
02:35:38,000 --> 02:35:41,000
Fortunately, the snow plows took out way more than I ever felt.

2906
02:35:41,000 --> 02:35:42,000
Oh yeah, yeah.

2907
02:35:42,000 --> 02:35:45,000
There was only one person that wanted me to pay for his mailbox.

2908
02:35:45,000 --> 02:35:48,000
Everybody else is like, yeah, we get it.

2909
02:35:48,000 --> 02:35:49,000
It's no biggie.

2910
02:35:49,000 --> 02:35:51,000
Did you have to pay for it?

2911
02:35:51,000 --> 02:35:56,000
No, because it happened on the job and I was doing my job.

2912
02:35:56,000 --> 02:35:58,000
So I figured the post office should pay for it.

2913
02:35:58,000 --> 02:36:00,000
Yeah, they should.

2914
02:36:00,000 --> 02:36:02,000
What the guy wound up doing is moving it.

2915
02:36:02,000 --> 02:36:05,000
When I knocked his mailbox over and off the post,

2916
02:36:05,000 --> 02:36:11,000
so he brought it from the curb all the way up to his front door and just set it on the ground there.

2917
02:36:11,000 --> 02:36:19,000
Which is not correct, not legal, and by rights I cannot be expected to deliver there.

2918
02:36:19,000 --> 02:36:23,000
But since I was the one that knocked it over, I started delivering up there.

2919
02:36:23,000 --> 02:36:26,000
And then he just never fixed it because he liked people to walk out his front door

2920
02:36:26,000 --> 02:36:29,000
and grab his man right there instead of walking to the street.

2921
02:36:29,000 --> 02:36:33,000
So I just turned it over to the boss and said, you know, this is the situation.

2922
02:36:33,000 --> 02:36:38,000
He's going to insist the post office pay for it or he's not moving it back out to the curb.

2923
02:36:38,000 --> 02:36:42,000
And I left the route before anything was resolved on that.

2924
02:36:42,000 --> 02:36:43,000
Oh good.

2925
02:36:43,000 --> 02:36:47,000
But he's probably still got mailbox sitting right up on the floor of his porch.

2926
02:36:47,000 --> 02:36:50,000
He took advantage of the situation.

2927
02:36:50,000 --> 02:36:52,000
Yeah, he did.

2928
02:36:52,000 --> 02:37:21,000
Oh well, it's somebody else's problem now.

2929
02:37:21,000 --> 02:37:36,000
Oh, no, looks like the show's over kids.

2930
02:37:36,000 --> 02:37:41,000
Mark has explosive diarrhea and can't afford a wireless mic.

2931
02:37:41,000 --> 02:37:42,000
Fear not, assholes.

2932
02:37:42,000 --> 02:37:52,000
They'll be back invading your ear holes soon.
