WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.580
Hey, my fellow heavy breathers, this is Dash

00:00:02.580 --> 00:00:08.820
Riptide, your music news. Hey, this is Dash Riptide

00:00:08.820 --> 00:00:11.019
here. I thought I'd let you all know, all you

00:00:11.019 --> 00:00:14.099
music fans, that I pre -ordered the Aussie book,

00:00:14.279 --> 00:00:17.960
brand new, coming out October 7th. It's called

00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:20.320
Last Rites. I think it's going to be phenomenal

00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:23.120
from what I read, and you should get it too if

00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:25.859
you're a fan. This is Dash Riptide, and that

00:00:25.859 --> 00:00:29.170
was your music news. If it's too loud, you probably

00:00:29.170 --> 00:00:39.869
have ear damage, just like me. And we're off

00:00:39.869 --> 00:00:55.359
and running. Can't stop this mess now. Our music.

00:00:56.219 --> 00:01:02.840
Great. There we go. Another extremely awful intro.

00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:04.359
You're going to run out of noises. I'm going

00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:06.040
to run out of noises at some point. I'll have

00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:07.980
to go home and practice. I like to be spontaneous,

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:09.920
though. I don't want to practice. I know, I know.

00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:13.140
I like it. You come up with something. This is

00:01:13.140 --> 00:01:15.879
what I'm feeling, man. I feel the flow, and it

00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:18.379
just comes out, man. More cowbells, more cowbells.

00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:24.799
Yeah. Oh. So, music bastards. Oh, yeah, yeah,

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:28.040
yeah. No, wait, sports creeps? No, sports bastards,

00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:30.019
music creeps. Yeah, I went along with it, too.

00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:32.760
I thought it was sports bastards. A little bit

00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:37.159
of crossover here. Whoa. That was loud. Yeah,

00:01:37.260 --> 00:01:39.439
that was a hell of a fart. Yeah, it was. Are

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:41.560
you okay? Yeah, I think I blew out this chair.

00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:44.379
I think it was both of us. Wow, I don't know.

00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:46.959
Better take a look and see if there's something

00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:51.519
I need to wipe up here. Does anyone have a scoop

00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:56.480
shovel? That's for me. What is that? That scented

00:01:56.480 --> 00:01:58.620
sawdust that they used to throw down when somebody

00:01:58.620 --> 00:02:01.700
would barf and spew. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Just

00:02:01.700 --> 00:02:03.900
the smell of that sawdust to make you hurl. Oh,

00:02:03.900 --> 00:02:07.719
I know. Per janitor coming there. Oh, we got

00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:10.300
a good one. Look at that. Someone had some ravioli,

00:02:10.300 --> 00:02:14.879
didn't they? You little barfing bastards. What

00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:20.840
the hell did you eat, kid? Shit. So, music. We

00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:22.659
went and saw a nice concert the other day. Yes,

00:02:22.659 --> 00:02:25.000
we did. Yeah, it was a lot of fun. Yeah, that

00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:27.340
was a great concert. We went to go see Jerry

00:02:27.340 --> 00:02:31.520
Cantrell of Alice in Chains, only doing solo.

00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:34.939
And as it turned out, the last show of the tour.

00:02:35.139 --> 00:02:37.259
Yeah, we didn't know this. Yeah, it was the I

00:02:37.259 --> 00:02:42.719
Want Blood tour. It was really, I mean... The

00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:46.000
vocals on when Jerry Cantrell was up there weren't

00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:49.199
very good. The guitar wasn't very good for Sparta,

00:02:49.340 --> 00:02:52.800
the opening band. Yeah, yeah. I wasn't sure what

00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:54.879
was going on there, but one thing I did realize

00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:59.500
about Jerry Cantrell is he's not a singer. Not

00:02:59.500 --> 00:03:02.069
so much, no. Lane Staley talked him into singing

00:03:02.069 --> 00:03:05.669
back it. Yeah. So, to keep it true, he couldn't

00:03:05.669 --> 00:03:08.810
really hire on his solo project. He couldn't

00:03:08.810 --> 00:03:12.689
really hire a lead singer, per se. Yeah. Yeah,

00:03:12.710 --> 00:03:14.169
because that's what he does with Alice in Chains.

00:03:14.229 --> 00:03:16.930
Yeah, he's got to have some of that background

00:03:16.930 --> 00:03:19.969
sound. And he's also, he's kind of like, like

00:03:19.969 --> 00:03:23.610
I said, Zach Wild, when he does Zach Savage,

00:03:23.729 --> 00:03:26.689
sounds so much like Ozzy. Yeah. Well, so does

00:03:26.689 --> 00:03:30.610
Jerry Cantrell. Yeah, yeah. He really... He learned

00:03:30.610 --> 00:03:33.810
a lot from Layne Staley, but he's still not a

00:03:33.810 --> 00:03:36.909
singer, and he treats it as such because it protects

00:03:36.909 --> 00:03:39.409
his voice. He has to. Yeah, I've noticed that.

00:03:39.490 --> 00:03:43.789
He doesn't strain things. He doesn't push. He's

00:03:43.789 --> 00:03:45.729
admitted that his guitar playing suffers a little

00:03:45.729 --> 00:03:49.870
bit while he's singing, but he doesn't. He doesn't

00:03:49.870 --> 00:03:51.509
make the mistake of thinking, well, they're here

00:03:51.509 --> 00:03:54.289
to hear me sing. No, they're here to hear your

00:03:54.289 --> 00:03:57.030
guitar. So don't worry about blasting your vocal

00:03:57.030 --> 00:04:01.990
cords away. Well, this was like, oh, the guitar

00:04:01.990 --> 00:04:06.969
was so well, what would you say, has its own

00:04:06.969 --> 00:04:10.990
signature, his own style. Definitely got his

00:04:10.990 --> 00:04:13.639
own tone. And just the style, as you're saying,

00:04:13.699 --> 00:04:15.560
the style, you can tell, oh, that's Jerry. His

00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:18.360
tone is insane. I mean, we know what he plays,

00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:20.500
but I'd like to know some of his tricks. Yeah.

00:04:21.379 --> 00:04:24.180
He got that sound perfectly up there. He did.

00:04:25.100 --> 00:04:29.519
He's great. He writes songs so uniquely. Yeah,

00:04:29.540 --> 00:04:34.779
it's such an unusual trait where he's really

00:04:34.779 --> 00:04:39.379
good at songwriting and performing and carrying

00:04:39.379 --> 00:04:43.379
the whole band. being a solo project. You'll

00:04:43.379 --> 00:04:46.519
hear a lot of solo projects where they put out

00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:48.920
decent music, but they're boring as hell in concert,

00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:52.160
or vice versa. It's a wild concert, but the music's

00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:54.779
kind of great. I think he's got all the bases

00:04:54.779 --> 00:04:56.600
covered. He really does. He did, because he was

00:04:56.600 --> 00:04:59.180
very entertaining. And also, another thing is,

00:04:59.300 --> 00:05:02.639
he is a nice person, obviously. Yeah, everybody

00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.800
was having nice things to say about him. Oh,

00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:06.939
my God, the opening band was just so complimentary.

00:05:06.939 --> 00:05:08.800
They said, we've never had people treat us this

00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:11.379
good. Every day they check in on us, make sure

00:05:11.379 --> 00:05:14.220
everything's okay. This was the last show of

00:05:14.220 --> 00:05:17.120
this, and they're not doing the next tour. So

00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:19.160
they had no reason. They didn't have anything.

00:05:19.339 --> 00:05:21.600
They didn't have to say this. They did it because

00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:24.540
it's true and they wanted to let people know

00:05:24.540 --> 00:05:27.379
what a fantastic person he is. Yeah. Number two,

00:05:27.459 --> 00:05:30.740
the tickets weren't outrageous. No, they weren't.

00:05:30.740 --> 00:05:33.019
They were decent. And the parking was free. How

00:05:33.019 --> 00:05:34.680
about that? And parking was free, too. And I

00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:37.040
think Jerry Cantrell probably has a lot to do

00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:39.819
with that. I would say, yeah. So, you know, he's

00:05:39.819 --> 00:05:42.120
a guy very respected in the business. He's an

00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:44.319
icon in the business and also somewhat legendary,

00:05:44.660 --> 00:05:48.259
which he deserves. Yeah. Because Alice in Chains

00:05:48.259 --> 00:05:51.279
is one of the few bands... that they became prominent

00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:53.839
because of the guitar. They did not become prominent

00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:56.259
as a singer or anything like that. Yeah, they

00:05:56.259 --> 00:05:59.180
continued past Layne Staley. Yeah, they did.

00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:03.160
Their new singer doesn't sound like Layne Staley

00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:06.519
at all. Not really, no. No, but they didn't want

00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:09.620
to replicate Layne Staley, which I agree with.

00:06:09.899 --> 00:06:11.860
True, unless you're going to be like Journey

00:06:11.860 --> 00:06:14.639
and find somebody who is basically a clone of

00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:16.379
Steve Perry, then you might as well just go a

00:06:16.379 --> 00:06:19.339
new direction. Rarely does that work, but Journey,

00:06:21.790 --> 00:06:25.230
Looks like we're under attack from tanks at this

00:06:25.230 --> 00:06:29.069
point. Oh, shit, they pointed. They think we're

00:06:29.069 --> 00:06:31.050
meeting them. Yeah, the armored personnel carrier

00:06:31.050 --> 00:06:33.389
right behind them. Yep. Oh, yeah, yeah, there

00:06:33.389 --> 00:06:40.850
we go. I also noticed outside the venue there

00:06:40.850 --> 00:06:46.250
was one semi truck and one, like, large box truck.

00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:50.079
That was pretty much it for Jerry and the opening

00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:53.100
act. They didn't bring a big, massive, ornate

00:06:53.100 --> 00:06:55.360
stage show that was going to cost them the $12

00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:57.259
,000 a night to run. And that's probably one

00:06:57.259 --> 00:06:59.220
of the reasons the ticket prices aren't so steep.

00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:03.279
Yeah. It's a good... It's a good fit because

00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:05.220
I think it's pretty much everybody was there

00:07:05.220 --> 00:07:08.420
to listen to the music and see him play, and

00:07:08.420 --> 00:07:10.879
they didn't need 12 people dancing around in

00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:13.959
some choreography on stage. There are people

00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:16.779
who really like that. Great, fine, enjoy it.

00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:18.980
But I don't want it in a lot of my music because

00:07:18.980 --> 00:07:20.920
I don't need all the people dancing around and

00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:24.300
matching uniforms or whatever. And it's nice

00:07:24.300 --> 00:07:27.720
to have something different. And the fact is

00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:30.180
it's way cheaper to put on a show like that.

00:07:30.459 --> 00:07:33.439
Yeah. And I think that helps control the ticket

00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:36.360
cost and helps people come in there. There weren't

00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:39.009
a lot of people there. Oh, yeah, yeah. They moved

00:07:39.009 --> 00:07:41.009
us up because there were some empty seats, but

00:07:41.009 --> 00:07:43.029
then they started filling up, so I think we got

00:07:43.029 --> 00:07:45.790
away with something there. I think we did, too,

00:07:45.870 --> 00:07:50.829
which is fine with me. Yeah. So another thing

00:07:50.829 --> 00:07:52.610
is I think a lot of people that were there viewed

00:07:52.610 --> 00:07:55.709
it like us. You may never get a chance to see

00:07:55.709 --> 00:07:58.410
this legend again on stage. You don't know. Yeah,

00:07:58.529 --> 00:08:01.649
and that was the only time I've ever heard Alice

00:08:01.649 --> 00:08:06.480
in Chains songs performed live. I have, but I

00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:08.439
didn't get the full Wayne Staley experience.

00:08:08.459 --> 00:08:11.160
When I saw him open up for Ozzy, number one,

00:08:11.180 --> 00:08:14.779
they did a full set. They did. I was really surprised

00:08:14.779 --> 00:08:17.079
that Ozzy was like that. He didn't care. They

00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:20.459
did over an hour. Nice. Yeah, I mean, they were

00:08:20.459 --> 00:08:24.019
almost like a double bill. Yeah. And so, you

00:08:24.019 --> 00:08:26.199
know, and Ozzy wasn't intimidated. He wasn't

00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:29.019
intimidated by anybody. No. Because he knew he

00:08:29.019 --> 00:08:31.000
was going to come out and own it anyhow. He always

00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:36.659
did. Lane Staley broke his leg, so they gave

00:08:36.659 --> 00:08:41.940
him a big couch. And he sat on that couch and

00:08:41.940 --> 00:08:47.519
sang great when his foot popped up. But, I mean,

00:08:47.539 --> 00:08:50.100
the real show was not on stage, though. The real

00:08:50.100 --> 00:08:52.159
show were the hilljacks that were jumping off

00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:56.019
the cliff behind me. Yeah, yeah. I swear, I don't

00:08:56.019 --> 00:08:57.919
know how high it was, but I'd say it looked like

00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:00.399
50 foot. There's got to be some long -term disability

00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.159
involved there. Oh, I mean, it was way up there.

00:09:03.220 --> 00:09:06.179
Whether it's 30 or 50, not everybody's going

00:09:06.179 --> 00:09:08.990
to make that jump. No, no. And that was the cheap

00:09:08.990 --> 00:09:11.389
seats up there. And they were wanting the seats.

00:09:13.450 --> 00:09:16.009
The first guy made it. Second guy made it. Third

00:09:16.009 --> 00:09:18.470
guy made it. Fourth guy went out in a stretcher.

00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:21.009
Fifth guy stretcher. And then after that, it

00:09:21.009 --> 00:09:22.889
was intermediate. I hear someone else go, oh!

00:09:23.129 --> 00:09:24.830
And I look around and go, oh, another one bit

00:09:24.830 --> 00:09:28.009
it. It was one of those things. It's like the

00:09:28.009 --> 00:09:29.830
Leonard Skinner concert I've seen at the very

00:09:29.830 --> 00:09:33.049
same venue. It's Black Oak Amphitheater now,

00:09:33.169 --> 00:09:35.730
but at the same time before. It's in the Ozark

00:09:35.730 --> 00:09:39.500
Mountains near Lampe, Missouri. So the other

00:09:39.500 --> 00:09:43.340
one was Leonard Skinner, and that was because

00:09:43.340 --> 00:09:46.139
of fights. Yeah. We went down there to meet some

00:09:46.139 --> 00:09:48.639
friends that lived down near Kimberling City,

00:09:48.860 --> 00:09:51.620
which is really close to Lampe. Yeah, I've been

00:09:51.620 --> 00:09:53.840
there. Okay, yeah. And Lampe's not too far from

00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:55.940
Blue Eye. No, it isn't. Yeah, it's right down

00:09:55.940 --> 00:09:57.600
the road from Blue Eye. I had an uncle that lived

00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:01.480
in Lampe. Oh, okay. A beautiful area. Yeah. He

00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:04.580
worked at Silver Dollar City. Oh, okay. All right,

00:10:04.620 --> 00:10:08.850
that makes sense. It's not too far away. So anyhow,

00:10:09.509 --> 00:10:13.049
they told us, hey, let's meet up at this Skinner

00:10:13.049 --> 00:10:16.100
concert. And it was good, we had good seats,

00:10:16.259 --> 00:10:18.320
but then everyone behind us kept fighting, so

00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:20.419
I finally gave in and just started watching the

00:10:20.419 --> 00:10:24.379
fights. I was like, no, Skinner's good, but at

00:10:24.379 --> 00:10:25.899
least I can hear the music while these people

00:10:25.899 --> 00:10:27.179
are beating the shit out of each other. Yeah,

00:10:27.179 --> 00:10:31.799
yeah. So... Count the lost teeth. Yeah, yeah.

00:10:31.860 --> 00:10:33.440
Well, I don't know if there's that many involved

00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:35.440
to begin with, if there's that many teeth involved.

00:10:35.539 --> 00:10:37.600
That's true, yeah. Yeah, but this, again, we're

00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:41.360
Hill Jacks. And listen, I grew up in the sticks,

00:10:41.620 --> 00:10:44.879
okay? This is affectionately... A lot of hill

00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:47.259
jacks listen to this show. Yeah. I know them.

00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:51.320
Love them. Okay? I'm somewhat of a hill jack.

00:10:51.419 --> 00:10:53.860
Do it. I was going to say, dental hygiene is

00:10:53.860 --> 00:10:57.919
not really top priority for a lot of people.

00:10:58.379 --> 00:11:01.399
Yeah, and it shows. It shows, yeah. The best

00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:02.980
way to do it is to do it like they did, get into

00:11:02.980 --> 00:11:04.700
a fight and just have them knocked out. Yeah.

00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:08.720
Yeah, problem solved. And by the age of 28, you

00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:10.679
can get a full set of implants. Oh, yeah, hell

00:11:10.679 --> 00:11:12.500
yeah. Then you get your implant teeth knocked

00:11:12.500 --> 00:11:19.019
out, too. Yeah, yeah. So, anyhow, I would give

00:11:19.019 --> 00:11:21.580
that concert about a nine and a half. Yeah, that

00:11:21.580 --> 00:11:23.919
was very good. Yeah, I'd only take off at half

00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:28.240
point because of the sale. Yeah, yeah. For the

00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:30.620
opening act, like you, I was having a lot of

00:11:30.620 --> 00:11:33.460
trouble hearing the vocals and the guitar. And

00:11:33.460 --> 00:11:35.179
when the guitar was playing all by itself, you

00:11:35.179 --> 00:11:36.240
could hear it just fine. You could hear it fine,

00:11:36.299 --> 00:11:38.240
but they couldn't split it for some reason. Yeah.

00:11:38.519 --> 00:11:42.919
And I think in both bands... The bass frequencies,

00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:45.299
mostly from the bass guitar, but also from the

00:11:45.299 --> 00:11:49.320
kick drum, just ran on too long. Yes. It's like

00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:51.460
you get a thump and you want it to quit. This

00:11:51.460 --> 00:11:55.379
would go thump. And you just have that hum of

00:11:55.379 --> 00:11:57.559
like nine different bass notes going at the same

00:11:57.559 --> 00:12:00.000
time. Yes. And it washed out everything. I could

00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.379
not pick out individual notes from the bass player.

00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:06.779
No. Just very rarely. And that's a shame. It's

00:12:06.779 --> 00:12:08.440
like, who's hearing this and thinking this is

00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:11.899
okay? Maybe it's just my hearing. Maybe everyone

00:12:11.899 --> 00:12:15.279
hears it so much better than me. It was just

00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:22.360
a lot of a wall of noise. Like the album, I want

00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.000
to be able to hear each individual instrument

00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:26.179
like I do on the album. I don't want just a wall

00:12:26.179 --> 00:12:29.440
of loud noise. That's not good enough. For some

00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:31.700
people, that's all it is. Like, oh yeah, it was

00:12:31.700 --> 00:12:33.720
so freaking loud, man. That's all they care about.

00:12:34.059 --> 00:12:36.899
This wasn't all that loud. It was loud, but it

00:12:36.899 --> 00:12:39.600
wasn't insanely loud. What was it, 80? Yeah,

00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:42.360
I pulled up my phone and it just registered 80

00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:44.379
decibels. Maybe I should have pointed it towards

00:12:44.379 --> 00:12:47.580
the stage. Maybe that was the bounce back. It

00:12:47.580 --> 00:12:49.559
wasn't that loud. It wasn't that loud, yeah.

00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:51.820
I have to wear my earplugs because of tinnitus.

00:12:52.019 --> 00:12:54.919
When I took them out, it was bearable for me,

00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:58.500
which is rare anymore. The next day, I tried

00:12:58.500 --> 00:13:04.279
an experiment. I've got a Marshall Combo amp.

00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:08.039
I put it in 20 -watt mode. and turned the gain

00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:11.279
and the volume up halfway. It stood right next

00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:13.840
to the amp and played. And it was pretty freaking

00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.159
loud, but it wasn't that much louder than the

00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:18.840
show was. Really? And that was on 20 -watt mode.

00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:22.700
So it sounded, I think, a little louder than

00:13:22.700 --> 00:13:24.779
it really was. It really wasn't all that loud.

00:13:25.740 --> 00:13:28.740
There was so much high frequency, just like this

00:13:28.740 --> 00:13:31.320
massive, buzzy, fizzy high frequency sitting

00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:33.019
on top that I wish that they could have killed

00:13:33.019 --> 00:13:35.639
that, too. That's where a lot of your ear fatigue

00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:39.360
comes from. Oh, yeah, I hate that. Do you think

00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:42.460
maybe an artist like Jerry Cantrell, because

00:13:42.460 --> 00:13:45.500
they can play very well and they are precise,

00:13:45.860 --> 00:13:48.299
they don't want the loudness so you can hear

00:13:48.299 --> 00:13:50.759
it better? I would think so, yeah. That's what

00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:52.960
I think. A lot of them, that's how they pick

00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:55.639
their equipment. It's like I get great note definition

00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:58.899
and low noise, and you can hear absolutely every

00:13:58.899 --> 00:14:00.759
nuance of what I'm playing. But then you go play

00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:03.519
live, and it's just this wall of sound. You can

00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:06.000
barely pick out anything. Yeah. It probably sounds

00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:08.179
terrific in his in -ear monitors. All of them

00:14:08.179 --> 00:14:11.240
are using in -ear monitors. Oh, yeah. So it probably

00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:13.059
sounded great in their ears, and they have no

00:14:13.059 --> 00:14:14.899
idea how it sounded out in front of the house.

00:14:15.139 --> 00:14:18.389
So somebody should tell them. Hey, Jerry, you

00:14:18.389 --> 00:14:22.710
sound like this. Yeah. What song was that? I

00:14:22.710 --> 00:14:27.570
don't know. One of them, one of them. But, no,

00:14:27.649 --> 00:14:32.389
that was, I think, like, the true artists respect

00:14:32.389 --> 00:14:35.870
that sound barrier, and they don't go over it.

00:14:36.009 --> 00:14:39.830
Yeah. They're bands that go just for noise, and

00:14:39.830 --> 00:14:41.389
it's usually the bands that that's about all

00:14:41.389 --> 00:14:43.549
they got. It's like one gimmick and a lot of

00:14:43.549 --> 00:14:48.889
volume. Yeah. All right. So, yeah, great concert.

00:14:48.970 --> 00:14:51.629
Glad we went. Really nice venue. It was the Uptown

00:14:51.629 --> 00:14:54.350
Theater. Oh, it's my favorite in Kansas City.

00:14:54.350 --> 00:14:56.950
Yeah, it's really nice. I'm old enough that I

00:14:56.950 --> 00:14:59.950
remember going there to see movies. Yeah, they

00:14:59.950 --> 00:15:03.129
did play movies there for a long time. I saw

00:15:03.129 --> 00:15:08.470
Chris Cornell's solo tour. Wow. There. That'd

00:15:08.470 --> 00:15:11.710
be something. Late 90s. It was different because

00:15:11.710 --> 00:15:14.409
people went there. I didn't. I read up on it.

00:15:15.090 --> 00:15:17.970
They're expecting Soundgarden. That's not what

00:15:17.970 --> 00:15:21.850
he was doing. His music alone was completely

00:15:21.850 --> 00:15:24.269
different. That's not what he did. He did that

00:15:24.269 --> 00:15:26.389
with Soundgarden only. So he's coming out there

00:15:26.389 --> 00:15:29.149
playing parts of Euphoria Morning, which I love

00:15:29.149 --> 00:15:32.929
that CD. It's nothing like Soundgarden. And people

00:15:32.929 --> 00:15:35.370
are looking at each other, and I'm thinking,

00:15:35.610 --> 00:15:38.769
oh, they think he's going to be playing Room

00:15:38.769 --> 00:15:41.750
a Thousand Years Wide. Yeah, Jesus Christ Pose.

00:15:41.830 --> 00:15:46.120
Yeah, yeah. Nope. Yeah, that's an odd, I don't

00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:48.059
understand it, but that is a thing that happens

00:15:48.059 --> 00:15:51.059
is one member of a band will go solo and they

00:15:51.059 --> 00:15:52.799
expect him to sound just like the whole band.

00:15:53.019 --> 00:15:55.320
Yeah, yeah, and a lot of people ended up leaving

00:15:55.320 --> 00:15:56.940
and I'm thinking, you guys are fucking idiots.

00:15:56.940 --> 00:15:58.779
They just don't get it. Yeah, they went in with

00:15:58.779 --> 00:16:03.129
totally the wrong impression. Chris Cornell got

00:16:03.129 --> 00:16:05.070
the money anyway. They bought the ticket and

00:16:05.070 --> 00:16:07.809
they showed up, so he got the money. Another

00:16:07.809 --> 00:16:11.429
thing is this is getting towards the end. I don't

00:16:11.429 --> 00:16:13.470
think Down from the Upside was released yet,

00:16:13.509 --> 00:16:17.639
but the band was pretty much... falling apart

00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:22.259
before that yeah and um i think that he was looking

00:16:22.259 --> 00:16:24.480
at stuff like audio slave and stuff like that

00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:27.279
so he didn't really want to do that type of music

00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:30.200
anyhow yeah i'm pretty sure when they got together

00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.179
for that last sound garden album they they all

00:16:33.179 --> 00:16:35.299
knew this is our last let's all start planning

00:16:35.299 --> 00:16:37.299
for life after sound garden yeah pretty much

00:16:37.299 --> 00:16:39.980
after it came out they said we're done yeah and

00:16:39.980 --> 00:16:42.600
i think that there's a lot of that element yeah

00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.039
but me i knew that i was looking at a legend

00:16:45.500 --> 00:16:48.179
And I was seeing him right in front of me, hardly

00:16:48.179 --> 00:16:50.139
anybody in front of me, looking him in the eyes,

00:16:50.220 --> 00:16:53.279
basically. I knew that that was happening. And

00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:55.879
some of the songs I didn't recognize because

00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:57.899
it was off another album or something else that

00:16:57.899 --> 00:17:01.179
he did. But I still was like, I'm staying here

00:17:01.179 --> 00:17:04.339
and I'm watching this legend. Because I'll probably

00:17:04.339 --> 00:17:06.619
never get this opportunity again. I got to see

00:17:06.619 --> 00:17:09.420
him in Soundgarden later, two days before he

00:17:09.420 --> 00:17:13.220
killed himself in Detroit. But I was way back.

00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:18.059
put on a great show. As a matter of fact, I remember

00:17:18.059 --> 00:17:20.900
telling Val, I go, this guy's in his mid -50s

00:17:20.900 --> 00:17:23.799
and he's singing like he's 20. He cannot last

00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:26.319
a full tour like that. He already had his mind

00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:30.180
made up. I only got a couple more stops and I'm

00:17:30.180 --> 00:17:33.980
going to go ahead and sing. What a waste of talent.

00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:36.700
What a waste of talent. It would have been nice

00:17:36.700 --> 00:17:39.519
to have more music from him coming out. But,

00:17:39.539 --> 00:17:41.480
you know, in order to be the entertainer and

00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:44.160
singer that he was, everything that happened

00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:46.680
to him had to happen to him. Yes, I know. But

00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:49.940
at the same time, all that stuff also led him

00:17:49.940 --> 00:17:52.079
to end his life really early. He was a true,

00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:55.579
a true tortured poet. Yeah, you could definitely

00:17:55.579 --> 00:17:57.579
put him in that category. There's a lot of posers.

00:17:57.660 --> 00:18:00.140
A lot of posers. Oh, my God, I know a lot of

00:18:00.140 --> 00:18:02.259
personal. Yeah. It's like, dude, you grew up

00:18:02.259 --> 00:18:03.940
in Johnson County, get the fuck away from me.

00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:07.319
Let's see, Kid Rock, he comes to mind. Yeah,

00:18:07.339 --> 00:18:10.109
he is a good... wealthy suburb and pretends he's

00:18:10.109 --> 00:18:12.029
a good old southern boy. He grew up in a wealthy

00:18:12.029 --> 00:18:14.049
suburb of Michigan. Of Michigan, yeah. And he

00:18:14.049 --> 00:18:15.809
pretends he's a good old southern boy and he

00:18:15.809 --> 00:18:17.930
came from the hood. He's like, oh, fuck you,

00:18:17.970 --> 00:18:23.009
Kid Rock. Isn't Fred Durst the same? Yes. Yeah,

00:18:23.009 --> 00:18:25.470
and it's like people are like, oh, this guy's

00:18:25.470 --> 00:18:27.950
from the street. No, that's just what he wants

00:18:27.950 --> 00:18:32.990
you to believe. You fucking fell for it. Because

00:18:32.990 --> 00:18:39.230
he has songs like American Badass. I would recommend

00:18:39.230 --> 00:18:43.269
people read the book Ubermensch. It's either

00:18:43.269 --> 00:18:48.569
Jewish or Yiddish for Superman. It's the story

00:18:48.569 --> 00:18:53.829
of Shep Gordon, a legendary rock promoter. All

00:18:53.829 --> 00:18:56.710
of the things he came up with to promote the

00:18:56.710 --> 00:18:59.690
bands he worked with, the craziness, all the

00:18:59.690 --> 00:19:02.019
things he made us believe. Oh, I know. He was

00:19:02.019 --> 00:19:04.559
so good. And we thought he was so good at lying

00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:07.700
to us right to our faces. Oh, I know. In fact,

00:19:07.819 --> 00:19:11.160
he's the one responsible for starting the celebrity

00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:15.180
chef craze. He started with Wolfgang Puck, and

00:19:15.180 --> 00:19:17.380
he was looking for something new to promote.

00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:21.839
And he said, everybody eats. Everybody has to

00:19:21.839 --> 00:19:24.140
eat every single day. A lot of them go out to

00:19:24.140 --> 00:19:26.940
eat, so chefs. I can make celebrities out of

00:19:26.940 --> 00:19:30.049
chefs. And he did it. And nobody's ever looked

00:19:30.049 --> 00:19:31.950
back from that. Before then, nobody really gave

00:19:31.950 --> 00:19:34.009
a damn about who the chef was and what his name

00:19:34.009 --> 00:19:35.609
was. What's the name of that book? I'm going

00:19:35.609 --> 00:19:38.289
to have to get it. Ubermensch. Ubermensch. Okay,

00:19:38.369 --> 00:19:41.950
I'm going to have to get that. Yeah. I've got

00:19:41.950 --> 00:19:47.069
it in my wish list waiting for someone to buy

00:19:47.069 --> 00:19:49.130
it for me. I'm going to get my wife to buy it

00:19:49.130 --> 00:19:51.849
for me. Maybe Christmas or birthdays we can buy

00:19:51.849 --> 00:19:53.569
it for each other. That'll be a good one, yeah.

00:19:53.609 --> 00:19:55.130
Yeah, there we go. We're kind of buying it for

00:19:55.130 --> 00:19:58.880
ourselves, but we're not. Yeah, I like that idea.

00:19:59.539 --> 00:20:04.599
He came up with so many wild promotional ideas,

00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:08.559
and people just built on it ever since. So there's

00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:10.880
tons of people out there that really are nothing

00:20:10.880 --> 00:20:13.819
at all like we've been told. Jelly Roll is nothing

00:20:13.819 --> 00:20:16.640
like we've been told. That's a back story to

00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:18.900
help him sell albums and make him popular, but

00:20:18.900 --> 00:20:21.880
yeah, he's not who you think he is. And there's

00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:23.839
no reason for him to be. They're entertainers.

00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:25.930
Of course they lie to you. That's what actors

00:20:25.930 --> 00:20:29.430
do, don't they? He's very good at it. He is good

00:20:29.430 --> 00:20:31.049
at it. He's good at pretending to be what he's

00:20:31.049 --> 00:20:33.190
supposed to be. He has a lot of underlying talent,

00:20:33.349 --> 00:20:35.809
too, so it's no farce that he's there. He's good

00:20:35.809 --> 00:20:39.430
enough. I just love the fact he's lost a lot

00:20:39.430 --> 00:20:41.130
of weight. He's still pretty heavy, but I love

00:20:41.130 --> 00:20:44.269
the fact he's a modern -day meatloaf. He's a

00:20:44.269 --> 00:20:46.430
big, heavy guy. I mean, not just kind of heavy,

00:20:46.450 --> 00:20:49.150
really heavy, but he has so much swag that women

00:20:49.150 --> 00:20:51.809
don't give a shit. They're like, I don't care.

00:20:51.950 --> 00:20:56.980
I want him sweating on me. It's cool. It's cool,

00:20:57.039 --> 00:21:01.000
man. He can be fat. I still want him. I love

00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:03.740
that because it goes to traditional boy band

00:21:03.740 --> 00:21:06.920
stuff. It goes against that so much. Yeah. You

00:21:06.920 --> 00:21:10.640
know, you have to be what a lot of people consider

00:21:10.640 --> 00:21:13.019
to be physically attractive before you even get

00:21:13.019 --> 00:21:16.339
considered. Yes. But there are tons of people

00:21:16.339 --> 00:21:20.779
who find, like, Jack Nicholson is just butt -fucking

00:21:20.779 --> 00:21:24.319
ugly. He is. He's an ugly, ugly man. He is. But

00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:27.980
it doesn't matter because he's Jack Nicholson.

00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:30.460
He's got the acting chops. He's got the personality.

00:21:30.460 --> 00:21:32.279
He's got the swagger. He's got such a delivery,

00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:35.039
too. And he's got boatloads of money that it

00:21:35.039 --> 00:21:40.759
doesn't matter. And he's at all the basketball

00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:45.299
games, all that stuff. No, I agree. Jack Nicholson

00:21:45.299 --> 00:21:47.160
is one of the guys that are like that. There's

00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:48.819
other ones I can't think of, but there's great

00:21:48.819 --> 00:21:55.069
examples of guys that are just... Nickelback.

00:21:55.329 --> 00:21:59.269
Oh, yeah. Chad Kroger. Ugliest sin in church

00:21:59.269 --> 00:22:01.690
on a Sunday. I was going to say, there's a number

00:22:01.690 --> 00:22:04.450
of lead singers, front men for bands that are

00:22:04.450 --> 00:22:07.109
just not something you want to look at. Mick

00:22:07.109 --> 00:22:11.269
Jagger. Oh, my God. Steven Tyler. Yeah. I mean,

00:22:11.309 --> 00:22:14.250
all of them are hideous looking. Yeah. But they

00:22:14.250 --> 00:22:18.660
get the tail like no other. Yeah, it's because

00:22:18.660 --> 00:22:21.359
of who they are and what they do. It just doesn't

00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:24.400
matter what people... Oh, well, you can't like

00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:26.079
that person. They don't have the right look.

00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:29.539
I don't give a shit. There's also the same here,

00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:32.779
the art of peacocking. Yes. Peacocking is something

00:22:32.779 --> 00:22:34.940
that a lot of people don't even know it exists.

00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:37.640
But it's something that makes you stand out from

00:22:37.640 --> 00:22:40.099
the rest of the guys and interesting to where

00:22:40.099 --> 00:22:43.160
they go. That guy over there, man, where's he

00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:44.940
from? What's he do? You know, and all that stuff.

00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:49.200
It promotes interest. There was an old episode

00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:51.759
of the Big Bang Theory. You remember the character

00:22:51.759 --> 00:22:54.640
Howard Wolowitz? He was always going after anybody

00:22:54.640 --> 00:22:57.000
that moved. Yeah, pretty much. Several people

00:22:57.000 --> 00:22:59.220
that didn't. Yeah, a piece of paper. One of the

00:22:59.220 --> 00:23:02.599
things he did is he was going out to try to meet

00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:04.720
checks one night, and he was wearing an eye patch.

00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:06.960
And it was like, no, what happened to your eye?

00:23:07.059 --> 00:23:09.700
He said, nothing. But this creates interest,

00:23:09.880 --> 00:23:11.900
you know. It's something to make me stand out,

00:23:11.980 --> 00:23:13.740
and I can make up whatever I want about me. And

00:23:13.740 --> 00:23:16.160
he was right. Yeah, yeah. He was right. He could

00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:18.599
make up anything he wanted to about that eyepatch

00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:20.859
he was wearing for absolutely no reason. Well,

00:23:20.859 --> 00:23:22.559
I remember we used to do what we called padding

00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:27.380
the stats. Oh, yeah. Have a guy come by, unsolicited,

00:23:27.460 --> 00:23:29.200
but he already knows you're meeting up with this

00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:31.180
chick. Yeah. And he happens to be walking through

00:23:31.180 --> 00:23:32.680
the restaurant. Oh, yeah, I've got to meet my

00:23:32.680 --> 00:23:34.700
date here. Mark, hey, what are you doing? Yeah,

00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:37.210
oh, not much. And then he'd go into how you saved

00:23:37.210 --> 00:23:38.769
the old lady from the bear or something. Oh,

00:23:38.769 --> 00:23:41.410
yes. Yeah. And he'd be talking you up, and you'd

00:23:41.410 --> 00:23:44.450
be like, oh, stop. No, no, no, no. No, that's

00:23:44.450 --> 00:23:46.950
true. Yeah. But because it didn't come from your

00:23:46.950 --> 00:23:48.930
mouth, it was like, man, that guy, he's so neat.

00:23:49.130 --> 00:23:51.950
Yeah, yeah. And so much of that happens, and

00:23:51.950 --> 00:23:53.849
it's done so well that we never even notice.

00:23:54.250 --> 00:23:56.829
Yeah. Yeah, I know. It's like the eye patch,

00:23:56.970 --> 00:23:59.269
like you said. People would be like, oh, my God,

00:23:59.309 --> 00:24:06.799
what happened to your eye? Radio in it. We'll

00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:08.640
just call it a radio in it. There we go, radio

00:24:08.640 --> 00:24:11.099
in it. Did you keep the part in there about you

00:24:11.099 --> 00:24:13.259
making your wife a steak dinner, though? No,

00:24:13.299 --> 00:24:15.900
no. I cut it off right after we were talking

00:24:15.900 --> 00:24:20.779
about Wolowitz and the eye patch and guys setting

00:24:20.779 --> 00:24:22.819
you up for a girl you're meeting. And I decided,

00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:25.599
yeah, we started talking about some people we

00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:28.099
know and sharing parts of their personal lives.

00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:31.200
I forgot we were doing a show, and I asked who

00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:34.099
it was, and highly inappropriate to put that

00:24:34.099 --> 00:24:37.549
out there. To protect the reputation and the

00:24:37.549 --> 00:24:40.869
names of the semi -innocent. Yes. We did a radio

00:24:40.869 --> 00:24:44.250
edit. Yes. But it is true that I made my wife

00:24:44.250 --> 00:24:47.210
a steak dinner last night. Yes. Yep. Yep, and

00:24:47.210 --> 00:24:50.069
like he said, she works with a couple women going

00:24:50.069 --> 00:24:53.589
through a divorce. So, I mean, if she wanted

00:24:53.589 --> 00:24:56.349
to laugh at him, she could. But she wouldn't.

00:24:56.349 --> 00:24:58.890
She's not that type of person. No, no. But she

00:24:58.890 --> 00:25:02.210
does like to go brag about me. That's good. The

00:25:02.210 --> 00:25:05.470
girls there who don't have... The relationships

00:25:05.470 --> 00:25:08.230
they want always tell her to shut up and go away.

00:25:08.430 --> 00:25:12.769
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. How about a fig leaf? Ooh.

00:25:12.970 --> 00:25:15.450
Yeah, yeah. And wear, like, I don't know, a fig

00:25:15.450 --> 00:25:18.509
loincloth. And then when she comes home, be there

00:25:18.509 --> 00:25:21.430
and go, sit down, madame. And then just start

00:25:21.430 --> 00:25:25.950
fanning her. I wanted to ask you about loincloths

00:25:25.950 --> 00:25:28.789
and loins. You've heard the term tenderloin.

00:25:29.269 --> 00:25:33.349
Yes. What exactly is the loin, and why is it

00:25:33.349 --> 00:25:36.089
so tender? Because when Tarzan wore that thing

00:25:36.089 --> 00:25:38.430
around his waist, that was a loin cloth. Yeah,

00:25:38.430 --> 00:25:40.069
it was. And that was wrapped around his junk.

00:25:40.369 --> 00:25:44.589
So is that what your loin is? Well, okay, a tenderloin

00:25:44.589 --> 00:25:50.589
of beef or even pork, I believe is like near

00:25:50.589 --> 00:25:52.529
the stomach, isn't it? Where do they get it from?

00:25:52.890 --> 00:25:57.109
I'm not sure. Because to me, loin and groin are

00:25:57.109 --> 00:25:59.309
pretty much the same thing. Because you wear

00:25:59.309 --> 00:26:01.650
a loin cloth, you wrap it right around your groin.

00:26:01.650 --> 00:26:04.769
They used to call it a groin cloth and then stopped

00:26:04.769 --> 00:26:08.009
and started calling it loin. So when you go to

00:26:08.009 --> 00:26:10.690
the store and they say they have tilapia loins,

00:26:10.690 --> 00:26:14.609
it's like, how does a fish have a loin? What

00:26:14.609 --> 00:26:20.589
part of the fish is the groinal area? Where is

00:26:20.589 --> 00:26:22.849
the part of the cow that a tenderloin comes from?

00:26:24.430 --> 00:26:29.839
What makes it so freaking tender? Okay, it's

00:26:29.839 --> 00:26:35.720
the hindquarters above the groin. Huh. Okay,

00:26:35.819 --> 00:26:39.720
so back area. So they just took the G off, so

00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:41.900
there's the loin area and the groin area. So

00:26:41.900 --> 00:26:43.960
the loin area is more towards the... As much

00:26:43.960 --> 00:26:46.220
fun as an electric can opener to the scrotum,

00:26:46.339 --> 00:26:53.599
two douchebags and a microphone. Hey there, slap

00:26:53.599 --> 00:26:59.490
nuts. It's time for The Creeps Music News. Hey,

00:26:59.529 --> 00:27:02.069
my little pumpkin seeds, this is Johnny Rohypnol

00:27:02.069 --> 00:27:05.549
with your music news. Sepultura guitarist Andreas

00:27:05.549 --> 00:27:08.049
Kaiser spoke about the band's plans to release

00:27:08.049 --> 00:27:10.970
new music with Sepultura's current touring drummer,

00:27:11.369 --> 00:27:14.250
23 -year -old Grayson Neckerman, who officially

00:27:14.250 --> 00:27:16.750
replaced Sepultura's longtime drummer, Elroy

00:27:16.750 --> 00:27:21.410
Casagrande, in February 2024. He said, as transcribed

00:27:21.410 --> 00:27:24.369
by BlackRoute .net, we recorded four new songs

00:27:24.369 --> 00:27:26.670
with Grayson on drums. I don't think anybody

00:27:26.670 --> 00:27:29.559
knows that, but there you go. We have four new

00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:32.279
songs, and we have the intention next year to

00:27:32.279 --> 00:27:35.119
release them in an EP. This is Johnny Rohypno.

00:27:35.500 --> 00:27:38.700
That was your music news, and remember, bar chords

00:27:38.700 --> 00:27:44.859
are bullshit. The butt. Yes. And the groin area

00:27:44.859 --> 00:27:48.579
is more towards the genitals. Yeah. Okay. So

00:27:48.579 --> 00:27:51.000
if you buy a package of tilapia loins, that means

00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:54.319
it came from the fish's butt. Yep. Yeah, there

00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:58.069
you go. Yeah, you see, they call it loin, but

00:27:58.069 --> 00:28:01.190
the actual loin is near the loin area of the

00:28:01.190 --> 00:28:05.710
cow. Yeah. So, I guess they call it tender loin

00:28:05.710 --> 00:28:09.230
because it's the tender part near the loin. Yeah.

00:28:09.250 --> 00:28:11.990
So, there you go. So, yeah, no, whatever. You

00:28:11.990 --> 00:28:15.549
know, that type of thing. So, all right. It's

00:28:15.549 --> 00:28:19.269
all confuselating. I got some bullet points.

00:28:19.309 --> 00:28:21.569
I love those bullet points. All right. Because

00:28:21.569 --> 00:28:24.890
what I got is not related to music all that much.

00:28:25.029 --> 00:28:26.710
No, that's okay. I love what we've been doing

00:28:26.710 --> 00:28:29.170
so far. Yeah, it's kind of fun. There's a whole

00:28:29.170 --> 00:28:31.569
subject on peacocking that I want to get to.

00:28:31.670 --> 00:28:33.289
Oh, yeah. Because there's several books written

00:28:33.289 --> 00:28:37.430
about it, and I love it. I mean, there's different

00:28:37.430 --> 00:28:41.490
ones, too, like the Steve McQueen book. Oh. Yeah,

00:28:41.650 --> 00:28:46.250
because he was like notorious ass -scatter. I

00:28:46.250 --> 00:28:49.430
believe the book, if I remember correctly, talks

00:28:49.430 --> 00:28:53.519
about his tactics. Yeah. And, like, man, I can't

00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:56.140
remember. Anyhow, I'll have to look it up. Yeah,

00:28:56.200 --> 00:28:57.799
we'll definitely go into some in -depth on that.

00:28:57.839 --> 00:28:59.619
That sounds good. Yeah, then there's another

00:28:59.619 --> 00:29:01.680
one, too, that's just flat. Some guy that claimed

00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:04.079
he got, like, 3 ,000 pieces of tail in, like,

00:29:04.079 --> 00:29:05.599
two years or something. But who knows? Yeah,

00:29:05.599 --> 00:29:08.559
Walt Chamberlain. Walt Chamberlain was a fact.

00:29:08.700 --> 00:29:11.859
Yeah, I think he said, like, 10 ,000. Yeah, I

00:29:11.859 --> 00:29:15.059
believe him, too. Wow. Yeah, so. There's some

00:29:15.059 --> 00:29:19.059
chafing going on there. Oh, my God. Fucking hell,

00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:21.539
how come his dick didn't fall off? I don't know,

00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:23.700
maybe it grows back every night. Oh, no. Yeah.

00:29:24.220 --> 00:29:26.859
Okay. You know what? That's enough. Yeah. Yeah,

00:29:26.900 --> 00:29:29.900
okay. All right. How will Ozzy be remembered

00:29:29.900 --> 00:29:34.160
in 10 years? I think very, very fondly. I think

00:29:34.160 --> 00:29:36.519
so too. People love him. Even the stuff that

00:29:36.519 --> 00:29:38.819
he did that people used to object to, I think

00:29:38.819 --> 00:29:40.880
will be remembered with a laugh and a smile.

00:29:41.259 --> 00:29:44.880
Well, I'll put it like this. The bat biting the

00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:46.460
head off the bat and biting the head off the

00:29:46.460 --> 00:29:49.440
doves and all the other antics, you know, pissing

00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:54.869
on Alamo. Snorting ants. Snorting ants. Aha,

00:29:54.990 --> 00:29:57.410
that's just Ozzy after the Osmonds. Yeah, yeah,

00:29:57.450 --> 00:30:00.009
because he never did anything with hate or malice

00:30:00.009 --> 00:30:02.750
or evil. He was just bumbling through life. He

00:30:02.750 --> 00:30:06.589
was like the perfect rock star. He was. If they

00:30:06.589 --> 00:30:08.829
were wanting to go, well, you know, Spinal Tap

00:30:08.829 --> 00:30:12.250
was cool, but here's how it really happens. Yeah.

00:30:13.309 --> 00:30:15.450
They'd point at Ozzy and go, this is how it really

00:30:15.450 --> 00:30:19.230
happens. Yeah, Spinal Tap is the kind of safe

00:30:19.230 --> 00:30:23.849
-for -work version. It's like the radio station

00:30:23.849 --> 00:30:26.470
that's safe to play at work. Spinal Tap is the

00:30:26.470 --> 00:30:29.390
safe version of how things really go. Oh, yeah.

00:30:29.509 --> 00:30:31.490
I mean, there's so many Aussie stories that I

00:30:31.490 --> 00:30:33.269
love, like the time he disappeared, I think,

00:30:33.309 --> 00:30:35.750
in Dallas. I guess Sharon would let him run off

00:30:35.750 --> 00:30:38.170
for a little bit, but then when it got a day

00:30:38.170 --> 00:30:41.690
from the show, she put out an APB. You see him,

00:30:41.710 --> 00:30:44.109
grab him, bring him back. And someone would see

00:30:44.109 --> 00:30:46.730
him, grab him, and bring him back, okay? So this

00:30:46.730 --> 00:30:50.029
time he came back with a shaved head. It must

00:30:50.029 --> 00:30:52.470
have been like trying to herd a bunch of cats,

00:30:52.630 --> 00:30:57.250
keeping track of Ozzie. Yeah, she had to growl

00:30:57.250 --> 00:31:00.950
him so much. She earned her commission, I'll

00:31:00.950 --> 00:31:03.250
say that. Let's face it, he would not have had

00:31:03.250 --> 00:31:05.589
a career without her. No, not at all. Oh, no,

00:31:05.650 --> 00:31:08.920
he was in disarray. He would have just... Been

00:31:08.920 --> 00:31:12.000
content to party until the end of his life. Yeah,

00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:13.640
which would have been much sooner. Yeah, that

00:31:13.640 --> 00:31:15.559
would have been a whole lot sooner, true. It

00:31:15.559 --> 00:31:17.799
almost happened anyhow a few times. Yeah, stay

00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:21.400
off the ATVs. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that and just

00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:24.579
excessive drug use to where it was so bad, you

00:31:24.579 --> 00:31:27.240
know, that the doctor told me he had AIDS because

00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:30.079
his immune system was so low from doing all these

00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:33.119
drugs and alcohol. You got AIDS, dude. Yeah,

00:31:33.180 --> 00:31:35.420
you start getting AIDS -defining illnesses that

00:31:35.420 --> 00:31:37.299
no one ever gets unless they have AIDS. It's

00:31:37.299 --> 00:31:40.160
like, oh, well, Ozzy said hold my beer. I can

00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:41.980
go out and catch one of those diseases too. Yeah,

00:31:41.980 --> 00:31:44.640
without AIDS. And then he has to go home and

00:31:44.640 --> 00:31:47.700
tell his wife, I got something to tell you. What?

00:31:48.839 --> 00:31:52.000
You want to sit down? No, what? No, you want

00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:55.980
to sit down. You want a cola? No, what? Oh, God,

00:31:56.039 --> 00:31:59.480
should I have AIDS? What? Yeah, that conversation

00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:03.049
would not go very well. No, that would be. All

00:32:03.049 --> 00:32:05.789
right. Will Ozzy or Sabbath be viewed as the

00:32:05.789 --> 00:32:09.910
most influential out of the two? That's a hard

00:32:09.910 --> 00:32:12.890
question. That is a hard one. Both of them. Both

00:32:12.890 --> 00:32:17.089
of them. Both genres. Whether it be the glamour,

00:32:17.089 --> 00:32:22.329
hard rock one, or the metal Sabbath one. It's

00:32:22.329 --> 00:32:25.569
one of them that they're defining trade on each

00:32:25.569 --> 00:32:27.539
of those. I don't know that you could really

00:32:27.539 --> 00:32:30.019
pick one or the other because they had different

00:32:30.019 --> 00:32:32.559
impacts. I know. That's the way I viewed it,

00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:34.900
too. It's like, look, if you want to ask me,

00:32:34.940 --> 00:32:38.160
they're even. Yeah. Yeah. There's not really

00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:41.579
any way of really judging it because it's two

00:32:41.579 --> 00:32:43.740
different things. Yeah, yeah. This definitely

00:32:43.740 --> 00:32:46.660
qualifies as, you know, apples and oranges. You're

00:32:46.660 --> 00:32:48.980
trying to compare things that really have their

00:32:48.980 --> 00:32:53.619
own unique place. Yeah, and also, Sabbath did

00:32:53.619 --> 00:32:56.339
the same thing as Ozzy. When they got rid of

00:32:56.339 --> 00:32:58.859
Ozzy, they reinvented themselves with Ronnie

00:32:58.859 --> 00:33:04.059
James Dio. And when Ozzy was booted, he was like,

00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:06.220
I'm not doing that stuff anymore. I'm not doing

00:33:06.220 --> 00:33:08.299
that dark stuff anymore. He said, no, no, no.

00:33:08.339 --> 00:33:11.559
I'm going to do this new metal sound. We're going

00:33:11.559 --> 00:33:14.319
to party and have fun. Yeah. The girls will dress

00:33:14.319 --> 00:33:16.759
nicely and the guys will drool over them. We'll

00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:18.200
all have a great time at the concert. Instead

00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:20.380
of a bunch of guys with spiked bullet chains

00:33:20.380 --> 00:33:25.029
and shit like that. Yeah. I went from... playing

00:33:25.029 --> 00:33:28.130
in a hard rock band to playing in a country and

00:33:28.130 --> 00:33:32.230
classic rock band. And the attractiveness of

00:33:32.230 --> 00:33:35.750
the audience went way up when I switched to country

00:33:35.750 --> 00:33:37.869
and classic rock. That's what I heard. Yeah,

00:33:38.009 --> 00:33:40.430
because they came out and they wanted to look

00:33:40.430 --> 00:33:43.329
good. When I was playing in the hard rock band,

00:33:43.509 --> 00:33:45.490
people just kind of didn't give a crap. And,

00:33:45.509 --> 00:33:48.690
in fact, looking weird or ugly or dangerous was

00:33:48.690 --> 00:33:52.250
a benefit. Oh, yeah. Going back to something

00:33:52.250 --> 00:33:55.640
like that right now is, At the Jerry Cantrell

00:33:55.640 --> 00:33:59.539
concert. I think groupies have changed. They

00:33:59.539 --> 00:34:03.440
no longer wear the skimpy shit and all that and

00:34:03.440 --> 00:34:05.880
look like they're ready for anything. Yeah, because

00:34:05.880 --> 00:34:08.840
everybody can do that now. Yeah, it looks to

00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:11.039
me like they just look regular and, I don't know,

00:34:11.099 --> 00:34:13.739
maybe it's hand signals. Maybe they give them

00:34:13.739 --> 00:34:16.300
the fucking head job look when they're on stage

00:34:16.300 --> 00:34:19.440
or something. I don't know. Or maybe Jerry Cantrell

00:34:19.440 --> 00:34:22.869
is way past that. Yeah, yeah. I can imagine getting

00:34:22.869 --> 00:34:24.949
to the point where you're like, you know, I'm

00:34:24.949 --> 00:34:27.110
kind of bored with this. Yeah, he's like, you

00:34:27.110 --> 00:34:28.989
know what, I think I'll just be faithful and

00:34:28.989 --> 00:34:33.929
be good. Yeah. All right. Okay. Will Aussie be

00:34:33.929 --> 00:34:36.650
viewed as a much larger attraction than Sabbath?

00:34:38.329 --> 00:34:41.090
I'd say so. Yeah, because Sabbath, even though

00:34:41.090 --> 00:34:43.989
their popularity, they're still niche. Yeah.

00:34:44.050 --> 00:34:47.369
From my personal perspective, I paid a lot of

00:34:47.369 --> 00:34:51.010
attention to Sabbath. And then when Aussie split...

00:34:51.309 --> 00:34:54.909
and after Sabbath kept going, I thought, oh,

00:34:54.949 --> 00:34:56.250
this will be interesting. And then Ozzy came

00:34:56.250 --> 00:34:58.190
out with the solo stuff, and I hardly ever thought

00:34:58.190 --> 00:35:00.730
about Sabbath again. Well, I enjoyed Heaven and

00:35:00.730 --> 00:35:02.829
Hell and Mob Rules. I thought those two albums

00:35:02.829 --> 00:35:05.949
were two of the, might be their two best. Yeah.

00:35:05.989 --> 00:35:10.889
To me, musically, everything about it. But I

00:35:10.889 --> 00:35:14.269
know what you're saying. Whenever I wanted to

00:35:14.269 --> 00:35:16.510
hear something dark and heavy, heavy metal -ish,

00:35:16.510 --> 00:35:18.570
I'd go to Sabbath, but more times I wanted to

00:35:18.570 --> 00:35:22.960
hear hard rock. Yeah. Like Ozzy. I was just thinking

00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:27.039
of the band Tool. After their third album, Undertow,

00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:29.840
their songwriting and playing was getting a lot

00:35:29.840 --> 00:35:32.639
more complex. Yes. And their bass player couldn't

00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:35.559
keep up. He was an awesome bass player, but he

00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:37.320
just couldn't. So I can't remember his name.

00:35:37.340 --> 00:35:39.119
They fired him and brought in Justin Chancellor.

00:35:39.420 --> 00:35:43.019
Yeah. And their music changed. because Justin

00:35:43.019 --> 00:35:45.940
Chancellor was so much better and fit in so well,

00:35:45.980 --> 00:35:48.000
and he didn't hold them back from anything. Oh,

00:35:48.019 --> 00:35:50.519
no, we're talking about how they do six, seven.

00:35:50.619 --> 00:35:53.440
They just keep fucking going. The time signatures

00:35:53.440 --> 00:35:57.059
are crazy. The time signatures, yeah. Long, complex

00:35:57.059 --> 00:35:59.260
passages that you've got to memorize and have

00:35:59.260 --> 00:36:02.860
the timing perfect. It was too much. Yeah. Like

00:36:02.860 --> 00:36:05.960
I was talking about Schism. Yeah. It was a great

00:36:05.960 --> 00:36:09.039
song, but you can't listen to it that much. It

00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:11.699
kind of hurts your brain after a while. It keeps

00:36:11.699 --> 00:36:15.539
going and piling on instead of coming to a resolution.

00:36:15.599 --> 00:36:17.559
It's like, what the hell are they doing here?

00:36:17.820 --> 00:36:20.460
But that's when you get that much talent and

00:36:20.460 --> 00:36:24.119
weirdness. They did the same thing in Lynyrd

00:36:24.119 --> 00:36:26.500
Skynyrd. After a few albums, their drummer just

00:36:26.500 --> 00:36:29.000
couldn't keep up with their songwriting anymore,

00:36:29.139 --> 00:36:32.210
so they let him go and hired Artemis Pyle. who

00:36:32.210 --> 00:36:34.690
had just finished his military service. This

00:36:34.690 --> 00:36:36.889
would be Gomer's brother. Yes. He was in the

00:36:36.889 --> 00:36:42.250
military too. But he was a different style of

00:36:42.250 --> 00:36:44.869
drummer, and he had a lot more capability, and

00:36:44.869 --> 00:36:47.809
Lynyrd Skynyrd's sound changed at that point.

00:36:48.230 --> 00:36:52.750
So it was no surprise that Sabbath started sounding

00:36:52.750 --> 00:36:54.969
different once Ozzy was gone. Well, they had

00:36:54.969 --> 00:36:57.349
to. I mean, you bring in someone like Dio, and

00:36:57.349 --> 00:37:01.389
you're guaranteed a dark. A dark, heavier song.

00:37:01.650 --> 00:37:04.690
Yeah. The interesting thing always for me is,

00:37:04.809 --> 00:37:07.809
how does Ozzy sound once he's out of the band?

00:37:07.969 --> 00:37:10.289
I was interested to see how was David Lee Roth

00:37:10.289 --> 00:37:12.449
going to sound out of Van Halen, and it turned

00:37:12.449 --> 00:37:16.019
out he just went for the... To me, it seemed

00:37:16.019 --> 00:37:18.699
like he went for the easy, low -hanging fruits,

00:37:18.840 --> 00:37:21.159
like, oh, this will be popular, and I can sell

00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:23.300
a bunch of albums, and he didn't put much more

00:37:23.300 --> 00:37:25.559
effort into it than that. Yeah, crazy from the

00:37:25.559 --> 00:37:27.960
heat, perfect album cover, but the songs weren't

00:37:27.960 --> 00:37:30.639
that good. No, they're pretty forgettable. Excellent

00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:33.300
musicians on it, but they knew they didn't have

00:37:33.300 --> 00:37:35.119
to put a lot of effort into it in order to sell.

00:37:35.199 --> 00:37:38.199
Yeah, and they didn't. And he was relying on

00:37:38.199 --> 00:37:41.219
his image. And then he got an all -star band

00:37:41.219 --> 00:37:43.880
behind him with Steve Vai and Billy Sheehan,

00:37:44.079 --> 00:37:47.619
and I forgot the drummer. I forget, too. Anyhow,

00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:50.340
so he tried to rely on that, but it didn't work

00:37:50.340 --> 00:37:54.079
out very well. When Peter Gabriel left Genesis,

00:37:54.400 --> 00:37:58.480
Genesis got a little more normal. They still

00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:00.699
sounded like some of the Genesis they had been

00:38:00.699 --> 00:38:04.280
doing, but Peter Gabriel just went crazy. It

00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:05.860
just went all sorts of different directions.

00:38:05.980 --> 00:38:08.199
His first album and his third album don't sound

00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:12.019
anything alike. No. Not at all. He was what you

00:38:12.019 --> 00:38:15.400
call too creative. Yeah. Way too creative. Yeah.

00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:17.920
And if you listen to it, if you look at some

00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:21.659
of the lyrics and look up the meanings of them,

00:38:21.699 --> 00:38:24.400
a lot of Peter Gabriel's songs are about his

00:38:24.400 --> 00:38:27.920
own mental health issues. Oh, yeah. Yeah. There's

00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:30.559
one called Digging in the Dirt. And what he's

00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:33.090
talking about is his own mind. Yeah. Digging

00:38:33.090 --> 00:38:34.909
through the dirt of your own mind to figure out

00:38:34.909 --> 00:38:38.369
what the hell is going on in here. How about

00:38:38.369 --> 00:38:42.489
Gage the Out Frontier? Yes. What an odd song.

00:38:42.849 --> 00:38:47.230
Yeah. What do you think it's about? I'm not really

00:38:47.230 --> 00:38:49.500
sure because he mentions... You know, some of

00:38:49.500 --> 00:38:52.099
the children he mentions have names of political

00:38:52.099 --> 00:38:54.260
leaders like Adolf. Yeah, Peter slept with so

00:38:54.260 --> 00:38:56.360
-and -so. That's the way I got it was he was

00:38:56.360 --> 00:38:58.159
talking about how they were in bed together and

00:38:58.159 --> 00:38:59.940
then they ended up fighting and killing. And

00:38:59.940 --> 00:39:03.539
that was pretty much the royalty of Europe in

00:39:03.539 --> 00:39:06.480
the late 1800s to the mid -1900s. There's a lot

00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:09.280
of royal families that were very much interbred

00:39:09.280 --> 00:39:11.619
with each other. Yeah. Because that was, you

00:39:11.619 --> 00:39:14.659
know, you married not for love. You married for

00:39:14.659 --> 00:39:18.880
political gain, distribution of power. acquisition

00:39:18.880 --> 00:39:20.860
of this, that, you know, their marriages between

00:39:20.860 --> 00:39:23.199
the royals really didn't mean anything. Yeah.

00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:25.079
And I think that's a lot of what he's singing

00:39:25.079 --> 00:39:26.719
about. I think so, too. And the whistling in

00:39:26.719 --> 00:39:31.920
there was military -ish. Yeah. But kind of lighthearted

00:39:31.920 --> 00:39:34.760
and upbeat at the same time. Yeah, yeah. Another

00:39:34.760 --> 00:39:36.360
really freaky song. Kind of like Springtime for

00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:39.360
Hitler or something. Yes. That was an awesome

00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:43.500
movie. Yeah. The Producers, that was it. Oh,

00:39:43.500 --> 00:39:45.840
okay. There was another weird song he did called

00:39:45.840 --> 00:39:48.579
I Don't Remember. I don't know if I know that

00:39:48.579 --> 00:39:51.900
one. And it's got kind of like a marching beat

00:39:51.900 --> 00:39:56.179
to it, and it's the basic message of, you know,

00:39:56.199 --> 00:39:59.320
I don't know what's going on. I can't remember.

00:39:59.480 --> 00:40:02.019
I can't figure this out. I'm just being dragged

00:40:02.019 --> 00:40:09.199
along. The song is really full of tension and

00:40:09.199 --> 00:40:12.039
angst, and he's probably feeling like that a

00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:14.579
lot. I think so, yes. When things are feeling

00:40:14.579 --> 00:40:17.559
out of control. And, like, you can't quite handle

00:40:17.559 --> 00:40:21.239
it. I've always gotten him. He's odd, but I've

00:40:21.239 --> 00:40:23.559
always liked him, and I got him. I think, you

00:40:23.559 --> 00:40:26.760
know, he's a tortured poet all the way. Yes.

00:40:27.460 --> 00:40:29.800
But he's also brilliant in a lot of ways, too.

00:40:30.139 --> 00:40:33.400
True. And a lot of people wouldn't view it as

00:40:33.400 --> 00:40:34.840
that. They'd be like, oh, that guy's putting

00:40:34.840 --> 00:40:37.639
out trash. No, I don't think so. I think he's

00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:39.440
very thoughtful on everything that he's done.

00:40:39.739 --> 00:40:42.119
Yeah, and even some stuff that I didn't necessarily

00:40:42.119 --> 00:40:44.440
like the first time I've heard it, I'll listen

00:40:44.440 --> 00:40:47.639
to it more. And I realized the effort and the

00:40:47.639 --> 00:40:52.340
creativity that went into it. A good example

00:40:52.340 --> 00:40:57.800
is My Body is a Cage. And it's slow, and for

00:40:57.800 --> 00:41:00.440
the most part it's vocal and piano with a few

00:41:00.440 --> 00:41:02.500
other instruments, but eventually there's an

00:41:02.500 --> 00:41:05.340
entire orchestra hammering away at you. And it

00:41:05.340 --> 00:41:08.820
travels, it goes all over the place. It's an

00:41:08.820 --> 00:41:12.460
amazing song, and the emotional impact of what

00:41:12.460 --> 00:41:15.630
he's singing about is pretty intense too. That's

00:41:15.630 --> 00:41:17.429
a song I can listen to every once in a while,

00:41:17.550 --> 00:41:24.889
but it emotionally affects me. I get it. I got

00:41:24.889 --> 00:41:29.289
songs I can't keep. Who was the most important

00:41:29.289 --> 00:41:34.750
member of the original Sabbath lineup? A lot

00:41:34.750 --> 00:41:36.769
of people argue with me, but it's Tony Iommi.

00:41:36.789 --> 00:41:38.750
I'm going to say Tony, yeah. Because without

00:41:38.750 --> 00:41:41.219
that guitar sound... And everything he had to

00:41:41.219 --> 00:41:42.840
go through to get it. He would have never had

00:41:42.840 --> 00:41:45.360
that sound. No. It would have never been understood.

00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:52.699
I mean, let's insert Jimmy Page. No? No? No.

00:41:53.300 --> 00:41:56.099
Nothing that spectacular? No. Rick Derringer?

00:41:56.159 --> 00:41:59.960
No. No? No. The only one close enough may be

00:41:59.960 --> 00:42:03.320
Richard Blackmore. Yeah. But I still don't think

00:42:03.320 --> 00:42:09.329
so because he would... He wasn't... Yeah, it's

00:42:09.329 --> 00:42:12.230
hard to think of anybody that was as heavy and

00:42:12.230 --> 00:42:15.110
expressive as Tony was at that point. No, I know.

00:42:15.210 --> 00:42:19.210
He really, yeah. So, yeah, so we both agree.

00:42:19.429 --> 00:42:21.630
I think it was Tony Iommi was the most important

00:42:21.630 --> 00:42:24.469
in that original four. But the most significant

00:42:24.469 --> 00:42:30.130
lead man ever was Ozzie. Yeah. All right. He'll

00:42:30.130 --> 00:42:32.809
always be in the top ten list of front men ever.

00:42:32.949 --> 00:42:40.300
Yeah, he was a chunky Jim Dandy. So, Vince Neal

00:42:40.300 --> 00:42:43.000
suffered a stroke. Should Motley hang it up?

00:42:44.820 --> 00:42:46.420
Yeah, because there are a lot of other reasons

00:42:46.420 --> 00:42:49.219
too, but that in addition. I want them to hire

00:42:49.219 --> 00:42:51.320
John Karabi back and call it something else.

00:42:53.059 --> 00:42:55.239
I don't think that they would ever swallow their

00:42:55.239 --> 00:42:58.360
egos and pride enough to talk with John Karabi

00:42:58.360 --> 00:43:01.219
again. After reading John Karabi's book, he won't

00:43:01.219 --> 00:43:03.360
let it happen. He fucking hates him, and I don't

00:43:03.360 --> 00:43:06.530
blame him. He never done anything to him. Yeah.

00:43:06.730 --> 00:43:08.909
And then they tried to erase him from everything.

00:43:09.329 --> 00:43:12.090
And I remember on The Dirt, the movie The Dirt

00:43:12.090 --> 00:43:16.090
and the book The Dirt, they have one photo of

00:43:16.090 --> 00:43:20.349
him only. It didn't say anything about it. Yeah.

00:43:21.269 --> 00:43:23.889
It's complete bullshit. It's not his fault it

00:43:23.889 --> 00:43:27.519
flopped. Yeah. It was a great album. It's like

00:43:27.519 --> 00:43:30.380
Roger Daltrey blaming the drummer. Yeah. He told

00:43:30.380 --> 00:43:32.400
the lie, and now he's got to double down and

00:43:32.400 --> 00:43:34.179
triple down. He's got to stick to it. I think

00:43:34.179 --> 00:43:36.599
that's what Nicky's doing. Yeah. And I read a

00:43:36.599 --> 00:43:39.219
recent thing about how Nicky is very disappointed

00:43:39.219 --> 00:43:43.519
in Mick Mars. How can you be disappointed? Mick

00:43:43.519 --> 00:43:45.579
Mars gave everything. He did everything he could,

00:43:45.619 --> 00:43:47.539
and you kicked his ass out trying to rip him

00:43:47.539 --> 00:43:50.519
off. Yeah. He didn't do anything. And people

00:43:50.519 --> 00:43:54.949
go, well, he stepped down from touring. Not the

00:43:54.949 --> 00:43:56.929
rest of the band. And they said, no, you're stepping

00:43:56.929 --> 00:44:00.269
down all the way. So, no, they did let him go

00:44:00.269 --> 00:44:02.489
unceremoniously, and they're trying to take his

00:44:02.489 --> 00:44:04.789
money from what I read, I mean, allegedly. It's

00:44:04.789 --> 00:44:08.250
like Isaac Hayes leaving the cast of South Park.

00:44:08.329 --> 00:44:12.530
He voiced Chef, and then all of a sudden he quit.

00:44:12.610 --> 00:44:15.710
And the show said, well, yeah, he's a Scientologist,

00:44:15.710 --> 00:44:17.289
and he was pissed that we were making fun of

00:44:17.289 --> 00:44:19.309
Scientology. And that was the story that everyone

00:44:19.309 --> 00:44:22.650
believed. Wasn't the truth. Isaac Hayes was ill,

00:44:22.789 --> 00:44:25.010
and he couldn't do the voiceover work anymore.

00:44:25.170 --> 00:44:27.489
He loved doing it. He didn't care that they were

00:44:27.489 --> 00:44:29.650
making fun of Scientology. He loved being part

00:44:29.650 --> 00:44:31.389
of it. And I completely believe that. I completely

00:44:31.389 --> 00:44:34.190
believe that. But it worked out better for South

00:44:34.190 --> 00:44:37.010
Park to create this false image that, oh, he

00:44:37.010 --> 00:44:38.969
was pissed at us, and he was angry, and he quit.

00:44:39.309 --> 00:44:43.449
Yeah. And Isaac Hayes, to his credit, never...

00:44:43.449 --> 00:44:45.630
He never stepped on their toes. He never contradicted

00:44:45.630 --> 00:44:48.199
them. He's like... fine, whatever, and then hits

00:44:48.199 --> 00:44:51.079
his family to say, here's the truth. You really

00:44:51.079 --> 00:44:53.900
ought to know the truth. He didn't want to quit.

00:44:53.940 --> 00:44:56.199
He would have done that forever if he had been

00:44:56.199 --> 00:45:00.719
able to. He was so good at it, too. Chocolate

00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:05.400
salty balls. Hello, children. I love that. Yeah,

00:45:05.400 --> 00:45:10.059
I know. Today, we're going to learn about oral

00:45:10.059 --> 00:45:17.449
sex. Oh, my God. Some of this stuff, yeah. Oh,

00:45:17.469 --> 00:45:20.690
my God. And then his preaching on women. Oh,

00:45:20.809 --> 00:45:23.389
yeah. Oh, my God. Oh, no, son. You're doing it

00:45:23.389 --> 00:45:25.130
all wrong. You've got to beat her first. You've

00:45:25.130 --> 00:45:27.789
got to get her into shape. He's always getting

00:45:27.789 --> 00:45:31.130
the Barry White album out. Yeah. It's time for

00:45:31.130 --> 00:45:38.909
some sweet, sweet loving. Hold on, baby. We done

00:45:38.909 --> 00:45:42.449
did it six times. I don't know if I want to do

00:45:42.449 --> 00:45:45.860
any more. That must have been Cartman's mom.

00:45:46.000 --> 00:45:48.559
Yeah, it was. Yeah, of course. Why do you think

00:45:48.559 --> 00:45:51.639
he's fat? He watched too much growing up. He

00:45:51.639 --> 00:45:54.139
started eating fucking bread loaves every time

00:45:54.139 --> 00:45:57.380
she was getting nailed. Remember when there was

00:45:57.380 --> 00:46:00.519
that controversy over who Cartman's dad was?

00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:03.860
Yeah. And it turned out his mom was also his

00:46:03.860 --> 00:46:06.239
dad because she's a hermaphrodite and she could

00:46:06.239 --> 00:46:10.320
fuck herself? Yeah. That was his first issue.

00:46:10.539 --> 00:46:14.480
That was so awesome. But the whole Cartman's

00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:19.059
mom being a total unapologetic slut is because

00:46:19.059 --> 00:46:21.320
one of the creators had a girlfriend who cheated

00:46:21.320 --> 00:46:23.860
on him. And he was so pissed that he created

00:46:23.860 --> 00:46:26.539
that character and gave her the name of his cheating

00:46:26.539 --> 00:46:28.719
girlfriend. Oh, that's funny. So every time you

00:46:28.719 --> 00:46:31.840
see Cartman's mom being a skank and a hoe, that's

00:46:31.840 --> 00:46:34.760
one of the creators talking about his ex -girlfriend.

00:46:34.920 --> 00:46:40.820
I love that. That's cool. I didn't know that.

00:46:42.110 --> 00:46:45.050
Vince underwent months of rehab to be able to

00:46:45.050 --> 00:46:48.389
continue being a lead man. After watching his

00:46:48.389 --> 00:46:51.429
performance back, why did he even step on stage?

00:46:52.190 --> 00:46:56.329
His face is different. He can't move it the same.

00:46:57.150 --> 00:47:00.510
He looks odd. He looks disheveled. He looks disoriented.

00:47:00.510 --> 00:47:04.309
He can't move around that well. Yeah, well, Nicky

00:47:04.309 --> 00:47:08.170
and Tommy look like they want to beat whatever

00:47:08.170 --> 00:47:10.820
dead horse is available. and see if money falls

00:47:10.820 --> 00:47:12.820
out. So I think that's what's going to happen.

00:47:13.199 --> 00:47:16.480
But the Vince Neal faithful, there's a lot of

00:47:16.480 --> 00:47:20.380
women out there who remember how excited they

00:47:20.380 --> 00:47:22.900
were looking at Vince Neal in his prime. And

00:47:22.900 --> 00:47:25.579
they think of that when they look at him now

00:47:25.579 --> 00:47:28.039
and that's good enough. But at a certain point,

00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:29.780
that's not going to be enough anymore. They're

00:47:29.780 --> 00:47:31.280
going to see who he is now and they're going

00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:33.760
to go, you know what, maybe I'm not so crazy

00:47:33.760 --> 00:47:37.000
about him after all. Yeah, I never did get...

00:47:37.000 --> 00:47:38.199
I think that's coming. I think that day's coming

00:47:38.199 --> 00:47:41.940
pretty soon. He was so awful up in Omaha that

00:47:41.940 --> 00:47:45.420
we ended up leaving early. I mean, he had Dana

00:47:45.420 --> 00:47:48.139
Strums taking over for a lot of the vocals and

00:47:48.139 --> 00:47:51.119
singing songs while he took a rest. It's like,

00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:54.500
I'm like, no. Look, I love Dana Strum. Great

00:47:54.500 --> 00:47:57.699
bassist. He can sing decent, too. We came here

00:47:57.699 --> 00:48:00.239
to see Vince. We didn't come here to see Dana

00:48:00.239 --> 00:48:03.289
Strum singing. And to me, when you start doing

00:48:03.289 --> 00:48:08.550
that, you're done. It's over. Yeah. All right.

00:48:09.769 --> 00:48:12.670
Finish the sentence, please. Okay. Ten years

00:48:12.670 --> 00:48:16.469
from now, Blank will be viewed as highly overrated.

00:48:19.789 --> 00:48:29.150
Wow. Katy Perry. Yeah. R .E .M. Bono. Bono. Anything

00:48:29.150 --> 00:48:37.780
Bono has ever made. Those ones came to mind immediately.

00:48:37.780 --> 00:48:40.400
I like those. Yeah, those are two good ones.

00:48:40.699 --> 00:48:44.860
Pete Diddy, probably already. Yeah, yeah. That's

00:48:44.860 --> 00:48:47.039
how no one says anything about him anymore. It's

00:48:47.039 --> 00:48:48.920
like he never existed. Oh, I know. It's kind

00:48:48.920 --> 00:48:50.679
of like they canceled him in their own mind.

00:48:50.699 --> 00:48:52.099
They didn't say anything. They're just like,

00:48:52.159 --> 00:48:55.059
oh, he's not there anymore. Yeah. Well, I mean,

00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:56.619
some of the stuff that came out, it's really

00:48:56.619 --> 00:48:59.699
hard to get around. It's funny watching reruns

00:48:59.699 --> 00:49:01.539
of TV shows from the 90s. 90s because they're

00:49:01.539 --> 00:49:05.739
name -dropping it constantly as Puff Daddy. But

00:49:05.739 --> 00:49:07.719
they're constantly name -dropping it. It was

00:49:07.719 --> 00:49:11.780
like, ooh, that's kind of cringy now. It's funny.

00:49:13.760 --> 00:49:17.039
Yeah, I can see them. I think Jelly Roll will

00:49:17.039 --> 00:49:19.159
probably be on the list of overrated. Jelly Roll

00:49:19.159 --> 00:49:20.460
will definitely be. That's who I was going to

00:49:20.460 --> 00:49:22.039
say. One of those guys where it's like, wow,

00:49:22.079 --> 00:49:24.340
what did we ever see in them? What about Taylor

00:49:24.340 --> 00:49:28.880
Swift? I think Miley Cyrus before Taylor Swift.

00:49:29.000 --> 00:49:32.380
Miley Cyrus, definitely. Taylor Swift is going

00:49:32.380 --> 00:49:34.519
to take a little longer, but I think she will

00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:37.739
not all the way. I think people will go, man,

00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:40.019
that's a lot of hype. I mean, she was good, but

00:49:40.019 --> 00:49:43.420
maybe not that good. She might be looked at the

00:49:43.420 --> 00:49:46.340
way I look at the Beatles and say, I understand

00:49:46.340 --> 00:49:48.239
that there was Beatlemania and they went crazy

00:49:48.239 --> 00:49:50.159
and nuts, but I don't understand why they went

00:49:50.159 --> 00:49:53.130
that crazy and that nuts. No, I love the Beatles,

00:49:53.289 --> 00:49:56.429
but they've never been my top band. I've always

00:49:56.429 --> 00:49:59.530
loved them, but just not that up there. But,

00:49:59.710 --> 00:50:03.409
I mean, Ozzy said this very well, too. You're

00:50:03.409 --> 00:50:07.090
a kid in England, and America, too. You have

00:50:07.090 --> 00:50:09.849
nothing going on. You're bored. And you hear

00:50:09.849 --> 00:50:12.469
this new music. It's like, oh, man, they're shaking

00:50:12.469 --> 00:50:15.630
their hips. And it's loud guitars, and they're

00:50:15.630 --> 00:50:18.789
screaming. I get it. Like you're in Birmingham

00:50:18.789 --> 00:50:20.730
right in the middle of the country. It's boring.

00:50:20.929 --> 00:50:23.750
It's flat. It's industrial. You need something.

00:50:25.269 --> 00:50:29.429
Yeah. You're right. Yeah. So I could see that

00:50:29.429 --> 00:50:32.090
initial flash. Yeah. And I think the rest is

00:50:32.090 --> 00:50:34.710
just people talking them up. So everyone goes

00:50:34.710 --> 00:50:36.349
along with it. Yeah, they were the best band

00:50:36.349 --> 00:50:40.289
ever. Yeah. Well, the music they wrote up, predominantly

00:50:40.289 --> 00:50:43.030
the hits were just ditties. I mean, they weren't

00:50:43.030 --> 00:50:46.179
anything spectacular. Yeah. And, you know, for

00:50:46.179 --> 00:50:49.679
all we know, all those video clips of the screaming

00:50:49.679 --> 00:50:52.219
fans losing their mind over the Beatles, maybe

00:50:52.219 --> 00:50:54.179
that's just the same few clips played over and

00:50:54.179 --> 00:50:56.179
over, and it only happened a few times. Could

00:50:56.179 --> 00:50:58.340
be. And they just built up this whole image from

00:50:58.340 --> 00:51:00.360
that, and we all just took their word for it.

00:51:00.679 --> 00:51:02.840
Oh, yeah. Well, I mean, if you really want to

00:51:02.840 --> 00:51:04.840
get down to it, I think John Lennon was just

00:51:04.840 --> 00:51:07.619
as successful as the Beatles when they broke

00:51:07.619 --> 00:51:11.920
up. Yeah. Paul McCartney went the totally commercial...

00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:15.500
radio -friendly songs. I can't judge him because

00:51:15.500 --> 00:51:17.860
I don't think he did the same thing. No, no.

00:51:18.119 --> 00:51:20.699
He was like, I'll make happy, fun songs that

00:51:20.699 --> 00:51:22.679
people want to pay money for and then I'll just

00:51:22.679 --> 00:51:24.579
have a happy life. John Lennon's like, okay,

00:51:24.599 --> 00:51:26.360
now I can say what I've really been wanting to

00:51:26.360 --> 00:51:29.039
say all this time. Yes, and he did, too. And

00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:31.760
he did, yes. Yeah, John Lennon's songs meant

00:51:31.760 --> 00:51:33.800
something. Paul McCartney's songs didn't mean

00:51:33.800 --> 00:51:36.900
a damn thing. mindset on you. Was that a Paul

00:51:36.900 --> 00:51:39.440
McCartney song? No, that's George Harrison. The

00:51:39.440 --> 00:51:43.000
song is just seven words long. The song is just

00:51:43.000 --> 00:51:48.639
seven words long. But then you hear songs like

00:51:48.639 --> 00:51:51.300
My Sweet Lord and you're like, my gosh, that

00:51:51.300 --> 00:51:54.159
guy was talented. Even though he stole that from

00:51:54.159 --> 00:51:57.559
a girl group. Oh, did he? My Sweet Lord. I didn't

00:51:57.559 --> 00:52:02.539
know that. He ripped off a He's So Fine. I can't

00:52:02.539 --> 00:52:04.280
remember the name of the group, but they took

00:52:04.280 --> 00:52:08.039
him to court. And they played it all in court,

00:52:08.139 --> 00:52:10.260
and he's like, oh, my God, you're right. I did

00:52:10.260 --> 00:52:12.300
totally rip that song. I didn't do it on purpose.

00:52:12.380 --> 00:52:14.820
I just had no idea. But, yeah, I copied your

00:52:14.820 --> 00:52:16.599
song. I just didn't remember that I'd heard it

00:52:16.599 --> 00:52:19.199
before. That happens all the time. Every royalty

00:52:19.199 --> 00:52:22.179
for My Sweet Lord goes to that girl group. He

00:52:22.179 --> 00:52:25.280
had enough money for the Beatles. And he was

00:52:25.280 --> 00:52:28.559
okay with it. He said, honestly, I didn't try

00:52:28.559 --> 00:52:30.599
to do it on purpose, but I did very clearly rip

00:52:30.599 --> 00:52:34.219
them off. Yep. I think Eric Clapton had something

00:52:34.219 --> 00:52:37.360
to do with it, too. Yeah. Yeah, he did. He was

00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:38.980
probably out there hating people of color and

00:52:38.980 --> 00:52:45.119
then decided. Yeah, he decided. What rock icon

00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:47.619
would you like to see do a spoken word tour?

00:52:49.340 --> 00:52:53.619
Oh, my gosh. Maynard James Keenan. Oh, God, yeah.

00:52:53.619 --> 00:53:01.570
From Tool. Yep. Alice Cooper. Yeah. If he wasn't

00:53:01.570 --> 00:53:05.190
such a complete scumbag of a human being, I'd

00:53:05.190 --> 00:53:07.590
say Roger Waters, but not anymore. No, not anymore.

00:53:07.789 --> 00:53:10.010
Before, I would have said, yeah, not now. Not

00:53:10.010 --> 00:53:11.610
now. I'm not interested in the thing he has to

00:53:11.610 --> 00:53:16.869
say. No. Bruce Dickinson was excellent. Yeah.

00:53:16.869 --> 00:53:20.630
My God, it couldn't have been any better. Neil

00:53:20.630 --> 00:53:22.570
Young probably would have a lot of stories to

00:53:22.570 --> 00:53:24.210
tell, but he probably can't remember them. He

00:53:24.210 --> 00:53:26.469
probably can't remember them. He can't remember

00:53:26.469 --> 00:53:28.349
his guitar chords. He's not going to remember

00:53:28.349 --> 00:53:30.650
them. He never struck me as a real good communicator

00:53:30.650 --> 00:53:35.110
anyway. No. Let's see. I'm trying to think of

00:53:35.110 --> 00:53:37.469
some people. You know, I would love to hear...

00:53:37.469 --> 00:53:43.530
Actually, I'd like to hear Nikki Sixx. but not

00:53:43.530 --> 00:53:46.750
on his business bullshit or trying to screw somebody

00:53:46.750 --> 00:53:49.369
out of the business or whatever and all the shit

00:53:49.369 --> 00:53:52.110
that's allegedly going on. I want to hear his

00:53:52.110 --> 00:53:55.530
stories from the early 80s and all of that. Or

00:53:55.530 --> 00:53:57.670
pick a guitar player who's been in a bunch of

00:53:57.670 --> 00:53:59.869
different bands like Steve Morse. I would love

00:53:59.869 --> 00:54:01.809
to hear... Steve Morse would actually be a great

00:54:01.809 --> 00:54:06.210
one. Because Kansas, Deep Purple, Dixie Dregs...

00:54:06.210 --> 00:54:08.730
A couple others. There are a couple others, yeah.

00:54:08.909 --> 00:54:13.900
His career has just been phenomenal. I think

00:54:13.900 --> 00:54:16.260
I read where he's going to do a solo thing now.

00:54:16.440 --> 00:54:19.219
Yeah, uh -huh. Yeah, I'd love to hear it because

00:54:19.219 --> 00:54:22.039
I've always liked his guitaring. And he was so

00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:24.519
good replacing Blackmore. I mean, he really did

00:54:24.519 --> 00:54:28.820
good. Is Lou Reed still alive? I have a feeling

00:54:28.820 --> 00:54:32.960
he's not alive anymore. But Lou Reed would be

00:54:32.960 --> 00:54:35.380
another really interesting person to hear tell

00:54:35.380 --> 00:54:38.900
their stories. Oh, we have them. Yeah, but I

00:54:38.900 --> 00:54:40.800
have the impression that Lou Reed passed away.

00:54:40.820 --> 00:54:42.860
I don't know. For some reason, I think I do.

00:54:44.679 --> 00:54:48.480
Lou Reed. I also read that Bill Shatner gets

00:54:48.480 --> 00:54:54.079
zero. 2013, he died. Yeah, 12 years ago. I also

00:54:54.079 --> 00:54:56.260
read the other day that Bill Shatner gets nothing

00:54:56.260 --> 00:54:59.019
from Star Trek reruns. That's what I heard. Yeah.

00:54:59.420 --> 00:55:02.059
Back then, people didn't really think about residuals

00:55:02.059 --> 00:55:03.519
or putting in their contracts. Not like they

00:55:03.519 --> 00:55:05.159
ripped them off. It's just people didn't think

00:55:05.159 --> 00:55:07.480
it was worth it. They cut it, what, second season

00:55:07.480 --> 00:55:09.820
or third season? They canned it. Yeah, I think

00:55:09.820 --> 00:55:13.360
it was one of the commercial seasons. Yeah, and

00:55:13.360 --> 00:55:15.719
there's not that many episodes of the original.

00:55:16.179 --> 00:55:20.000
They went into movies after that. After it started

00:55:20.000 --> 00:55:22.139
catching fire, then they decided to do movies

00:55:22.139 --> 00:55:25.179
instead of doing that. Like Dawn Wells, who played

00:55:25.179 --> 00:55:28.260
Marianne on Gilligan's Island. Of the whole cast,

00:55:28.480 --> 00:55:30.860
she was the only one who had to put in her contract,

00:55:30.940 --> 00:55:34.460
I'll take less per week per episode, but I want

00:55:34.460 --> 00:55:38.159
to get paid on all the reruns. And she wound

00:55:38.159 --> 00:55:40.360
up the richest of all of them. Oh, yeah. Just

00:55:40.360 --> 00:55:41.699
based on that. And the rest of them were like,

00:55:41.760 --> 00:55:44.599
jeez, I didn't know that was a thing. And the

00:55:44.599 --> 00:55:46.199
studio really didn't think it was a thing. They're

00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:47.699
like, this isn't going to amount to anything.

00:55:47.820 --> 00:55:49.239
Yeah, yeah, don't worry about it. You want a

00:55:49.239 --> 00:55:52.179
couple of cents every month? Yeah. Do it. But,

00:55:52.260 --> 00:55:54.280
man, she wound up getting a lot of mailbox money.

00:55:54.619 --> 00:55:56.920
Yeah, she had some foresight on that. The rest

00:55:56.920 --> 00:55:59.440
of them didn't. Not surprising. She was the most

00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:01.360
attractive person on that show. Oh, yeah, she

00:56:01.360 --> 00:56:04.599
was by far. Oh, my gosh. I had so many adolescent

00:56:04.599 --> 00:56:06.619
fantasies about Mary Ann. Oh, me too. The way

00:56:06.619 --> 00:56:09.340
she tied that around her midriff. Oh, my God.

00:56:09.380 --> 00:56:12.420
I wanted her to make me a coconut cream pie.

00:56:12.539 --> 00:56:18.440
Oh, me too. Yep. My pearl wiener. Oh, my God.

00:56:18.460 --> 00:56:22.639
I got a lot of abuse in her name. Her and Bernadette

00:56:22.639 --> 00:56:26.570
Peters. Oh, my God. Yeah. She was something else.

00:56:26.570 --> 00:56:29.889
That raspy, naughty voice of hers. When Steve

00:56:29.889 --> 00:56:31.809
Martin started hooking up, I was like, you lucky

00:56:31.809 --> 00:56:34.809
son of a bitch. Oh, I know, man. I started getting

00:56:34.809 --> 00:56:37.710
hair on my fucking bag. Next thing I know, Bernadette

00:56:37.710 --> 00:56:43.829
Peters is something special. And you all expected

00:56:43.829 --> 00:56:48.510
to hear music. Yeah. Okay, how about, will Alice

00:56:48.510 --> 00:56:52.519
in Chains ever put out new music? Yeah, I think

00:56:52.519 --> 00:56:54.139
so. I think so, too. I think Jerry's still got

00:56:54.139 --> 00:56:56.400
some Alice in Chains material left in him. They're

00:56:56.400 --> 00:56:59.179
still intact. Yeah. They didn't break up. No,

00:56:59.239 --> 00:57:02.440
they primarily just tour on their existing catalog,

00:57:02.539 --> 00:57:05.000
but I can see him putting out... Rainier Fogg

00:57:05.000 --> 00:57:07.420
was their last... As far as I remember, yeah.

00:57:07.500 --> 00:57:10.360
He did play that guitar during the show. Yes,

00:57:10.360 --> 00:57:12.619
he did, yeah. The black Telecaster with the Rainier

00:57:12.619 --> 00:57:15.079
Fogg album art on the cover. That album I would

00:57:15.079 --> 00:57:18.059
put against a lot of them. Yeah, yeah. I mean,

00:57:18.079 --> 00:57:21.960
you wouldn't put it against... like Rooster or

00:57:21.960 --> 00:57:25.940
Man in a Box, but I mean, it's different. It's

00:57:25.940 --> 00:57:28.099
what it is. And I don't know if you could pick

00:57:28.099 --> 00:57:29.920
a good one, you know, which is better because

00:57:29.920 --> 00:57:32.360
they're too far different. Yeah. But there's

00:57:32.360 --> 00:57:34.099
nothing wrong with that album at all. That album

00:57:34.099 --> 00:57:38.400
was incredible. I still listen to it. All right.

00:57:39.420 --> 00:57:44.079
Should Jerry Cantrell actually just center, should

00:57:44.079 --> 00:57:47.219
he just focus on his solo career and maybe, you

00:57:47.219 --> 00:57:49.980
know, be like Alice in Chains was nice? But it's

00:57:49.980 --> 00:57:54.280
done? Uh, yeah, I would say not necessarily done,

00:57:54.440 --> 00:57:58.500
but, like, bring Alice in Chains out every 60

00:57:58.500 --> 00:58:00.980
months to a year to do some sort of show for

00:58:00.980 --> 00:58:04.820
a reason or so. But, yeah, I'd say at this point

00:58:04.820 --> 00:58:06.420
stick to your solo material. This solo band was

00:58:06.420 --> 00:58:09.219
highly talented and very good. Yeah, boy, that's...

00:58:09.219 --> 00:58:13.239
Hello, this is Phineas J. Altaris III. I'm here

00:58:13.239 --> 00:58:20.780
to deliver your music news this evening. Tesla

00:58:20.780 --> 00:58:23.119
bassist and founding member Brian Wheat has teamed

00:58:23.119 --> 00:58:25.599
up with original Tesla guitarist Tommy Scoach

00:58:25.599 --> 00:58:28.639
in a new band called Terminal. Joining the duo

00:58:28.639 --> 00:58:31.079
in the new group are former Wasp guitarist Chris

00:58:31.079 --> 00:58:33.579
Holmes and original Saliva singer Josie Scott.

00:58:34.199 --> 00:58:36.539
They plan on putting an album out later on this

00:58:36.539 --> 00:58:40.880
year or early next year. This is Phineas J. Baltaris

00:58:40.880 --> 00:58:45.400
III. That has been your music news for this evening.

00:58:46.099 --> 00:58:49.679
I have one burning question for you all. Do people

00:58:49.679 --> 00:58:54.039
really skip around the Maypole? The drummer was

00:58:54.039 --> 00:58:55.519
pounding the crap out of his drums, wasn't he?

00:58:55.519 --> 00:58:57.039
Oh my God, I love the drummer, yeah. And then

00:58:57.039 --> 00:59:00.739
he comes out and plays guitar. Yeah. He turns

00:59:00.739 --> 00:59:02.260
that way. What the fuck are you doing with a

00:59:02.260 --> 00:59:05.579
guitar, man? You're a drummer. Yeah. And then

00:59:05.579 --> 00:59:07.719
he had the coolest guitar up there, too. Yeah,

00:59:07.860 --> 00:59:10.079
and a great big black star on it. Yeah, that

00:59:10.079 --> 00:59:12.179
was cool. That was pretty awesome. Yeah, his

00:59:12.179 --> 00:59:15.079
band is really good, and I would love to hear

00:59:15.079 --> 00:59:18.489
them do more music. And I'd go watch them again,

00:59:18.570 --> 00:59:22.170
would you? Definitely. Yeah. So that's all of

00:59:22.170 --> 00:59:27.750
the bullet points. Okay. You have stuff. I mean,

00:59:27.789 --> 00:59:29.530
it doesn't matter if it's music or not. If they

00:59:29.530 --> 00:59:31.789
want to hang up, they can. All right. Well, I

00:59:31.789 --> 00:59:36.309
remember a while back I did a story on the Douchebags

00:59:36.309 --> 00:59:43.460
podcast about the Dyatlov 9. And I... Recently

00:59:43.460 --> 00:59:45.960
learned some new information about that, so I'll

00:59:45.960 --> 00:59:49.699
go over it. The original story was in January

00:59:49.699 --> 00:59:55.860
of 1959, there were ten college students in the

00:59:55.860 --> 00:59:59.900
former Soviet Union, and they decided to take

00:59:59.900 --> 01:00:03.760
a ski trip to the Ural Mountains, which was going

01:00:03.760 --> 01:00:07.139
to last a week to ten days. So ten of them set

01:00:07.139 --> 01:00:09.239
off. One of them got sick the first night and

01:00:09.239 --> 01:00:12.159
turned around and came back. The other nine went

01:00:12.159 --> 01:00:18.130
on. and they never returned. So eventually a

01:00:18.130 --> 01:00:21.030
search party went out to look for them, and what

01:00:21.030 --> 01:00:24.869
they found was they found their campsite and

01:00:24.869 --> 01:00:28.869
the main tent that they all shared, and it was

01:00:28.869 --> 01:00:33.710
pitched on the side of a slope with the door

01:00:33.710 --> 01:00:37.449
facing sideways along the mountain. So one side

01:00:37.449 --> 01:00:39.610
of the tent was facing downhill, one side of

01:00:39.610 --> 01:00:42.679
the tent was facing uphill. Sometime in the middle

01:00:42.679 --> 01:00:46.460
of the night, they cut their way out of the tent.

01:00:46.599 --> 01:00:49.599
They didn't untie the front. At least two different

01:00:49.599 --> 01:00:52.000
people with two different knives cut their way

01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:55.360
out the side of the tent, and they ran down the

01:00:55.360 --> 01:00:58.480
side of the hill as fast as they could. They

01:00:58.480 --> 01:01:01.320
left behind jackets. They left behind shoes.

01:01:01.800 --> 01:01:04.619
One of them was even barefoot. They were running

01:01:04.619 --> 01:01:08.679
for their lives from something. And they all

01:01:08.679 --> 01:01:10.780
just ran, ran, ran. You can see the footprints.

01:01:11.239 --> 01:01:14.559
I've seen photographs of it. They hit a downhill.

01:01:15.559 --> 01:01:19.820
And they found two of them a couple hundred yards

01:01:19.820 --> 01:01:22.980
down the hill by a stream where they had stopped

01:01:22.980 --> 01:01:25.460
and built themselves a fire to try to stay warm.

01:01:26.099 --> 01:01:28.840
And even though they huddled up so close to the

01:01:28.840 --> 01:01:31.039
fire that one of them wound up cooking his own

01:01:31.039 --> 01:01:34.599
foot, he still died of hypothermia. So they were

01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:37.750
two dead there. As the spring thaw came, they

01:01:37.750 --> 01:01:42.269
found the rest of the bodies. And a few of them

01:01:42.269 --> 01:01:44.349
were missing, like eyes and their tongue, but

01:01:44.349 --> 01:01:48.070
that was from wild animals and, you know, regular

01:01:48.070 --> 01:01:51.010
decompositions. A couple of the bodies fell in

01:01:51.010 --> 01:01:54.429
a stream. But the weird thing is, was internal

01:01:54.429 --> 01:01:58.610
injuries without any external trauma. One of

01:01:58.610 --> 01:02:00.190
the guys, there were two that had been crawling

01:02:00.190 --> 01:02:04.260
uphill back towards their tent. And they made

01:02:04.260 --> 01:02:06.739
it partway up the hill before dying. One of them

01:02:06.739 --> 01:02:11.380
had multiple skull fractures. And the forensic,

01:02:11.599 --> 01:02:16.699
the coroner or whatever at the time said, the

01:02:16.699 --> 01:02:19.260
only way I can explain this type of injury is

01:02:19.260 --> 01:02:24.159
being beaten repeatedly with a rifle butt. Wow.

01:02:24.320 --> 01:02:30.239
Yeah. And another body was found in a tree. Now

01:02:30.239 --> 01:02:31.980
you're out there freezing to death in the middle

01:02:31.980 --> 01:02:34.000
of the night, and you don't have enough clothing.

01:02:34.059 --> 01:02:35.739
Are you going to climb a tree? I don't think

01:02:35.739 --> 01:02:39.320
so. Some of the others had started taking off

01:02:39.320 --> 01:02:42.500
what little remaining clothing they had, which

01:02:42.500 --> 01:02:46.179
could be a sign of hypothermia. There was another

01:02:46.179 --> 01:02:50.400
who had multiple ribs fractured and his sternum

01:02:50.400 --> 01:02:53.820
fractured, his breastbone, with absolutely no

01:02:53.820 --> 01:02:57.059
sign on his skin of any kind of trauma whatsoever.

01:02:57.659 --> 01:03:01.090
Wow. And again, the coroner said the only thing

01:03:01.090 --> 01:03:03.489
that could cause this would be an explosive blast.

01:03:04.269 --> 01:03:07.289
An explosive shockwave. A rifle butt and an explosive

01:03:07.289 --> 01:03:12.809
blast. So they all died, and several of them

01:03:12.809 --> 01:03:16.570
had a really weird cocktail of really unusual

01:03:16.570 --> 01:03:19.610
and very much man -made radioactive elements

01:03:19.610 --> 01:03:23.239
all over the clothing. And originally they tried

01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:24.780
to explain it away. They said, oh, well, they

01:03:24.780 --> 01:03:27.139
worked at the university in the nuclear reactor

01:03:27.139 --> 01:03:30.440
lab. No, that doesn't wash it, does it? They

01:03:30.440 --> 01:03:32.500
did find the camera of one of them and developed

01:03:32.500 --> 01:03:35.380
the film they could find. They could do it. And

01:03:35.380 --> 01:03:37.179
there was a lot of pictures of them just doing

01:03:37.179 --> 01:03:39.659
normal things and having fun and, you know, just

01:03:39.659 --> 01:03:42.480
doing their regular stuff. The last picture on

01:03:42.480 --> 01:03:46.480
the roll was the middle of the night. It was

01:03:46.480 --> 01:03:49.510
out of focus. And it looked for all the world

01:03:49.510 --> 01:03:51.909
like someone standing and taking the picture

01:03:51.909 --> 01:03:54.150
with all of his friends standing in front of

01:03:54.150 --> 01:03:56.389
him. You could see the tops of their heads. And

01:03:56.389 --> 01:03:59.269
up in the black night sky is this giant white

01:03:59.269 --> 01:04:03.090
searchlight flaring right at you. And that was

01:04:03.090 --> 01:04:05.309
the last picture on the roll of film. And what

01:04:05.309 --> 01:04:09.289
I thought was a Soviet military helicopter coming

01:04:09.289 --> 01:04:14.969
in. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah. So anyway,

01:04:15.090 --> 01:04:19.110
in the aftermath of this, They declared that

01:04:19.110 --> 01:04:21.590
what had happened was an avalanche had come down

01:04:21.590 --> 01:04:23.869
the hill, and they heard the avalanche coming,

01:04:23.929 --> 01:04:25.650
and it all ran for their lives, and they just

01:04:25.650 --> 01:04:31.469
couldn't make it back to the tent. Then in 1989,

01:04:31.590 --> 01:04:34.550
after the fall of the Soviet Union, somebody

01:04:34.550 --> 01:04:38.610
found some records showing that four days before

01:04:38.610 --> 01:04:43.110
these nine students were even due back, the military

01:04:43.110 --> 01:04:48.090
went out exactly to that spot. to find out what

01:04:48.090 --> 01:04:50.809
was going on. How in the world did they know

01:04:50.809 --> 01:04:53.510
that anything needed to be looked at there unless

01:04:53.510 --> 01:04:57.050
they already knew? So four days before they were

01:04:57.050 --> 01:04:59.690
even overdue, the military went out in force

01:04:59.690 --> 01:05:02.030
to that site. And what they actually did at that

01:05:02.030 --> 01:05:05.190
point was fake up a lot of the area to make it

01:05:05.190 --> 01:05:09.869
look like an avalanche, hide some evidence, plant

01:05:09.869 --> 01:05:12.719
some evidence, this and that and the other. Why

01:05:12.719 --> 01:05:14.800
would they kill them like that is what I don't

01:05:14.800 --> 01:05:17.619
understand. Yeah. The local tribes that live

01:05:17.619 --> 01:05:19.760
in those mountains said that night they remember

01:05:19.760 --> 01:05:23.380
a lot of military vehicles. They could hear them.

01:05:23.420 --> 01:05:29.739
They could see them in the air. And someone thought,

01:05:29.820 --> 01:05:32.400
well, let's see if any of the other radiation

01:05:32.400 --> 01:05:35.559
exposure is in the atmosphere or in the environment.

01:05:35.760 --> 01:05:37.719
So they went and they found the grove of trees

01:05:37.719 --> 01:05:41.280
nearby. where the students had camped, and they

01:05:41.280 --> 01:05:43.639
cut the tree down and examined back through the

01:05:43.639 --> 01:05:46.820
tree rings to find, you know, 1959's tree ring

01:05:46.820 --> 01:05:50.239
and tested the wood there. No radiation. So it

01:05:50.239 --> 01:05:53.039
wasn't in the area. It was specifically on these.

01:05:53.059 --> 01:05:56.519
On these people. So that's where it sat for a

01:05:56.519 --> 01:05:59.440
lot of years. It's like, what the hell happened

01:05:59.440 --> 01:06:02.840
to these kids? Yeah. So the one I saw recently,

01:06:03.039 --> 01:06:07.320
they went into more detail about this, and they...

01:06:08.610 --> 01:06:11.289
They left out some things and they clarified

01:06:11.289 --> 01:06:13.570
some things, but what it boiled down to was they

01:06:13.570 --> 01:06:16.210
found more documentation from the military archives.

01:06:17.090 --> 01:06:21.530
And there was a special military group who was

01:06:21.530 --> 01:06:26.849
working with weapons for population control,

01:06:27.030 --> 01:06:30.530
controlling large groups of people. And it involved

01:06:30.530 --> 01:06:36.329
high volume, low frequency sound. which can be

01:06:36.329 --> 01:06:40.829
used as a bludgeoning weapon, and exposure to

01:06:40.829 --> 01:06:43.329
radiation, not in the form of a nuclear blast,

01:06:43.610 --> 01:06:46.469
but just aiming radiation at you. Aiming at them.

01:06:46.590 --> 01:06:49.630
Yeah. Now, a lot of other countries, including

01:06:49.630 --> 01:06:52.329
the United States, have admitted, we looked into

01:06:52.329 --> 01:06:55.329
these types of weapons, but we decided there

01:06:55.329 --> 01:06:58.010
was better things we could do. So this technology

01:06:58.010 --> 01:07:00.530
is real. Yeah, they have radiation. A lot of

01:07:00.530 --> 01:07:03.309
countries have looked into this stuff. So this

01:07:03.309 --> 01:07:07.940
special group, was in that area that night. Okay.

01:07:08.119 --> 01:07:11.659
And they kept digging, and they found the commander

01:07:11.659 --> 01:07:16.019
of that group had admitted in his diary that

01:07:16.019 --> 01:07:19.500
when they showed up to that area to test out

01:07:19.500 --> 01:07:21.300
their weapons, they found these students there

01:07:21.300 --> 01:07:25.860
already. They thought, cool, test subjects. So

01:07:25.860 --> 01:07:29.039
they just decided to test their weapons on them.

01:07:29.579 --> 01:07:32.519
And here was a whole list of documentation of

01:07:32.519 --> 01:07:34.960
all the individual nine students that were there,

01:07:35.039 --> 01:07:37.500
all of their movements tracked and written down,

01:07:37.639 --> 01:07:40.460
and where they died and how they died. It was

01:07:40.460 --> 01:07:44.460
all there in the military archives from 1959.

01:07:45.099 --> 01:07:48.039
Wow. So that's what had happened is the Soviet

01:07:48.039 --> 01:07:50.920
military was going to test these weapons. A bunch

01:07:50.920 --> 01:07:53.239
of students showed up. They said, cool, lab rats,

01:07:53.460 --> 01:07:56.119
let's kill them and see how it works. And that's

01:07:56.119 --> 01:07:58.159
exactly what they did and then covered it for

01:07:58.159 --> 01:08:01.780
all these years. Wow. So that's what happened

01:08:01.780 --> 01:08:05.079
to the Dyatlov 9. The military decided to test

01:08:05.079 --> 01:08:09.039
their new weapon on them. So that explains the

01:08:09.039 --> 01:08:12.059
horrible internal injuries without external trauma.

01:08:12.260 --> 01:08:15.539
It was super loud, low -frequency sound waves.

01:08:15.719 --> 01:08:19.039
Wow. And then the radiation was also to disorient

01:08:19.039 --> 01:08:23.300
them, make them feel sick. It's pretty awful.

01:08:23.340 --> 01:08:27.199
Horrible. Isn't it? Yeah. But it's Russia, so

01:08:27.199 --> 01:08:29.100
the families aren't going to get any money. Oh,

01:08:29.100 --> 01:08:31.789
no. They'll be like, yeah, that's too bad. But

01:08:31.789 --> 01:08:37.250
who knows, do they even know the truth inside

01:08:37.250 --> 01:08:39.489
Russia now? Probably not. They're probably suppressing

01:08:39.489 --> 01:08:42.390
it. Just like I'm sure that other parts of the

01:08:42.390 --> 01:08:45.149
world know the truth about some things that we're

01:08:45.149 --> 01:08:46.810
still being lied to about. Oh, I'm sure. Yeah,

01:08:47.029 --> 01:08:52.390
I'm sure. Do you want an Eric Clapton's a dickhead

01:08:52.390 --> 01:08:55.310
story? Sure. Okay, I mean, since he's so good

01:08:55.310 --> 01:08:59.260
at it. Yeah, he's gotten it down to a... Like

01:08:59.260 --> 01:09:02.220
a lounge act. Yeah, he was like that. He could

01:09:02.220 --> 01:09:05.500
teach a course on how to be a penis of a human

01:09:05.500 --> 01:09:10.739
being. He would sell a lot of seats. I need to

01:09:10.739 --> 01:09:14.239
be a bigger dick at work. Can you maybe help

01:09:14.239 --> 01:09:16.159
me out, Eric? Yeah, I'll get this Eric Klapner

01:09:16.159 --> 01:09:19.100
guy. Yeah, he's really good, man. Wait a minute,

01:09:19.159 --> 01:09:22.119
are you an immigrant? Oh, okay, I'm sorry, you're

01:09:22.119 --> 01:09:24.359
not allowed. Remember when that one attorney

01:09:24.359 --> 01:09:27.189
general called him? Eric Clapner. Clapner, yeah.

01:09:27.590 --> 01:09:30.090
Oh, I love Eric Clapner. I'm a big fan of Eric

01:09:30.090 --> 01:09:32.050
Clapner. No, you're not. You never bought an

01:09:32.050 --> 01:09:35.010
album, obviously, you dickhead. Now AI does that.

01:09:35.989 --> 01:09:42.390
Clapner. That's funnier than hell. I think I

01:09:42.390 --> 01:09:45.649
was Clinton's attorney general. The one that

01:09:45.649 --> 01:09:47.789
suddenly wanted to legalize marijuana when her

01:09:47.789 --> 01:09:53.880
son got arrested for smoking it. She'd always

01:09:53.880 --> 01:09:55.600
hated it before, and all of a sudden, oh, let's

01:09:55.600 --> 01:09:57.520
legalize it. There's nothing wrong with it. Because

01:09:57.520 --> 01:10:04.199
my son just got arrested. I'll get to the clap

01:10:04.199 --> 01:10:08.739
of the story here in a minute. Okay. I got a

01:10:08.739 --> 01:10:14.180
reply here real quick. Something I've been trying

01:10:14.180 --> 01:10:18.220
to do that does have to do with music, because

01:10:18.220 --> 01:10:23.319
it's sound, is learning... what kind of power

01:10:23.319 --> 01:10:28.800
sound has at decibel ratings. Like right now,

01:10:28.840 --> 01:10:31.000
we're talking, this is probably about 60 decibels

01:10:31.000 --> 01:10:35.220
right here. Imagine what 100 decibels sounds

01:10:35.220 --> 01:10:39.199
like. That's like an airplane. Imagine what 200

01:10:39.199 --> 01:10:43.180
decibels sounds like. I don't think you could

01:10:43.180 --> 01:10:49.720
imagine because it would destroy your ears. I

01:10:49.720 --> 01:10:51.420
think it was my son Jeffrey who told me there's

01:10:51.420 --> 01:10:56.180
a sound level, I think it's around 1500 decibels,

01:10:56.220 --> 01:11:00.699
that is enough energy that it would shake the

01:11:00.699 --> 01:11:06.039
world apart. The planet would turn into dust

01:11:06.039 --> 01:11:10.779
because of that much energy. Wow. Yeah, because

01:11:10.779 --> 01:11:14.020
one decibel is more than just one decibel. When

01:11:14.020 --> 01:11:16.680
you go up from like 60 to 65, it's not just five

01:11:16.680 --> 01:11:19.210
more decibels, it's like ten times louder. It

01:11:19.210 --> 01:11:25.289
goes up like the Richter scale does. A 6 .5 earthquake

01:11:25.289 --> 01:11:28.949
is about 30 times stronger than a 6 .0 earthquake.

01:11:29.609 --> 01:11:33.170
And decibels go up kind of on a logarithmic scale

01:11:33.170 --> 01:11:37.289
like that. But there is a sound, just a few thousand

01:11:37.289 --> 01:11:40.350
decibels would basically destroy the known universe.

01:11:40.750 --> 01:11:43.750
That is just way too much energy to unleash.

01:11:44.649 --> 01:11:46.369
Yeah, I could see that. Because once it stops

01:11:46.369 --> 01:11:49.710
being sound energy, it becomes heat energy. And

01:11:49.710 --> 01:11:53.069
that's a lot of heat. Yeah. We noticed how it

01:11:53.069 --> 01:11:55.250
was heating up inside the venue Sunday night.

01:11:55.250 --> 01:11:57.689
Oh, gosh, yeah. It was cold. It was almost cold.

01:11:57.810 --> 01:12:00.270
Yeah. Then when it started showing up, it got

01:12:00.270 --> 01:12:02.449
hot. Yeah. I mean, part of it was the people

01:12:02.449 --> 01:12:04.750
because, you know, your average human being puts

01:12:04.750 --> 01:12:06.970
about as much heat out as a 100 -watt light bulb

01:12:06.970 --> 01:12:10.750
does. Yeah. But it's no longer the stage lights

01:12:10.750 --> 01:12:13.500
because they're all LED. They're cool. But it

01:12:13.500 --> 01:12:16.039
was the sound energy. Because, you know, once

01:12:16.039 --> 01:12:18.720
it stops being sound, then energy turns into

01:12:18.720 --> 01:12:20.920
heat. Yes. And it just warms the whole place

01:12:20.920 --> 01:12:26.420
up. Yeah, and it did, too. But I'm going to look

01:12:26.420 --> 01:12:32.220
up sound levels. Okay. Okay, the Clapton story.

01:12:32.539 --> 01:12:35.239
It starts off like this. He said, yeah, what

01:12:35.239 --> 01:12:36.680
are you going to do about it? You're a girl.

01:12:37.239 --> 01:12:39.260
You don't have the money to fight this. Rita

01:12:39.260 --> 01:12:41.800
Coolidge says Eric Clapton owes her a writing

01:12:41.800 --> 01:12:44.039
credit for one of the most celebrated songs in

01:12:44.039 --> 01:12:47.640
rock. The Grammy -winning singer helped pen the

01:12:47.640 --> 01:12:52.359
piano coda that closes Layla, but was never credited

01:12:52.359 --> 01:12:55.899
despite her pleas to the guitarist. More than

01:12:55.899 --> 01:12:58.619
half of a century since the release of Layla,

01:12:58.720 --> 01:13:01.680
one of the most iconic tracks in Eric Clapton's

01:13:01.680 --> 01:13:07.560
and Rita Coolidge's... you know, career, is still

01:13:07.560 --> 01:13:10.399
waiting to be credited for the outro's piano

01:13:10.399 --> 01:13:12.739
lines. And that really makes the whole song.

01:13:12.819 --> 01:13:14.920
It does, yeah. I wait through the beginning of

01:13:14.920 --> 01:13:19.119
the song to get to that second part. Yes. Yeah,

01:13:19.180 --> 01:13:22.640
me too. I agree. Clapton's own signatures, of

01:13:22.640 --> 01:13:25.199
course, all over the 1970 track from Derek and

01:13:25.199 --> 01:13:28.300
the Dominoes. Layla and the Other Assorted Love

01:13:28.300 --> 01:13:30.779
Songs, an album with an intriguing backstory

01:13:30.779 --> 01:13:34.020
of its own. The album is a uniquely personal

01:13:34.020 --> 01:13:37.220
entry into Clapton's catalog, written and recorded

01:13:37.220 --> 01:13:39.739
while the guitarist was in the thrones of longing

01:13:39.739 --> 01:13:44.500
for Patty Harrison. Layla, the wife of his famous

01:13:44.500 --> 01:13:49.199
Beatles pal, George, would be Harrison. He cleverly

01:13:49.199 --> 01:13:51.520
disguised his identity by changing his name from

01:13:51.520 --> 01:13:58.909
Eric to Derek. I know. Fooled us all, didn't

01:13:58.909 --> 01:14:00.670
you, dude? Why don't you go with, like, Alfonso

01:14:00.670 --> 01:14:07.250
and the dominoes? See, I'm going to hide. I'm

01:14:07.250 --> 01:14:09.270
going to call myself Gopher, and no one will

01:14:09.270 --> 01:14:11.170
ever be able to tell. Gopher. Or I'll be like

01:14:11.170 --> 01:14:13.890
Superman and put on a pair of glasses and suddenly...

01:14:15.039 --> 01:14:17.119
Somebody, you know, I'm Clark Kent, I'm not Superman.

01:14:17.579 --> 01:14:19.640
Yeah, yeah, because you look so different with

01:14:19.640 --> 01:14:21.640
a pair of glasses. That's an interesting point.

01:14:21.699 --> 01:14:23.899
When Clark Kent went to the eye doctor and took

01:14:23.899 --> 01:14:25.600
his glasses off, wouldn't his doctor immediately

01:14:25.600 --> 01:14:27.739
know he's Superman? That's what I always thought,

01:14:27.800 --> 01:14:31.060
too. Because I remember it used to be a big thing,

01:14:31.079 --> 01:14:33.119
remember? Someone's coming over and you go, oh,

01:14:33.119 --> 01:14:36.159
shit, my glasses. Yep. Or if he's in the shower,

01:14:36.300 --> 01:14:38.859
you know. He looks just like Superman when he

01:14:38.859 --> 01:14:40.779
takes his glasses off. Yeah, and even people

01:14:40.779 --> 01:14:43.699
did that to him in the comics. You look just

01:14:43.699 --> 01:14:45.539
like Superman when your glasses are off. Oh,

01:14:45.539 --> 01:14:48.140
no, I don't. Oh, stop. I just have one of those

01:14:48.140 --> 01:14:52.460
faces. Yeah, everybody thinks I'm somebody. One

01:14:52.460 --> 01:14:54.520
person thinks I'm Walter Cronkite, you know.

01:14:56.119 --> 01:14:59.479
Another one thinks I'm Joe Namath. That's crazy.

01:15:00.800 --> 01:15:02.819
I'm thinking of names back then I don't fucking

01:15:02.819 --> 01:15:06.819
know. All right. Paul Hardy. Yeah, Paul, yeah.

01:15:07.800 --> 01:15:12.859
And now for the news. That guy was fun. Oh, yeah,

01:15:12.859 --> 01:15:15.399
he was. I love his dramatic pause. I think that's

01:15:15.399 --> 01:15:17.560
where Jim Rome learned to do his dramatic Rome

01:15:17.560 --> 01:15:21.060
pause. Yes, yeah, it's quite similar. Yeah, that

01:15:21.060 --> 01:15:23.020
and William Shatner and how he delivered his

01:15:23.020 --> 01:15:26.239
lines. Yeah, I always thought that William Shatner

01:15:26.239 --> 01:15:28.899
almost forgets his lines, and that's what happens.

01:15:28.920 --> 01:15:31.159
Yeah, he can probably only remember two or three.

01:15:32.020 --> 01:15:35.720
Spock, we need to get down to them. Planet surface

01:15:35.720 --> 01:15:39.260
in. See what's happening. I almost thought it's

01:15:39.260 --> 01:15:41.479
like that, but it's too contrived. But I really

01:15:41.479 --> 01:15:43.460
thought, I think he's just forgetting his fucking

01:15:43.460 --> 01:15:46.119
lines. And it takes him a minute to run through

01:15:46.119 --> 01:15:50.100
it in his head. And then cut the cord on that

01:15:50.100 --> 01:15:53.859
bottom sack. If you ever watched the first few

01:15:53.859 --> 01:15:56.840
seasons of ER, when George Clooney was still

01:15:56.840 --> 01:15:59.800
on it, a lot of the time he's spending with his

01:15:59.800 --> 01:16:03.640
head down. Uh -huh. or he's looking off to the

01:16:03.640 --> 01:16:05.979
side, and it was supposed to be like, oh, he's

01:16:05.979 --> 01:16:08.939
shy or he's a little nervous or he's a little

01:16:08.939 --> 01:16:11.840
insecure. No, he couldn't remember his lines,

01:16:11.920 --> 01:16:14.340
and he'd stash pieces of paper around with his

01:16:14.340 --> 01:16:16.439
lines on them. So he's looking down on the floor.

01:16:16.460 --> 01:16:18.760
He's looking for his line, and he whips his head

01:16:18.760 --> 01:16:21.600
to the right to look away. He's got a piece of

01:16:21.600 --> 01:16:23.659
paper over there with his next line on it. So

01:16:23.659 --> 01:16:25.680
he just made that part of his character. He's

01:16:25.680 --> 01:16:27.760
like, I can't remember my freaking lines, man.

01:16:27.859 --> 01:16:28.779
I'm just going to have to do this. So I'm just

01:16:28.779 --> 01:16:32.750
going to be shy. Interesting. Same on that 70s

01:16:32.750 --> 01:16:35.029
show. You see them looking down or looking under

01:16:35.029 --> 01:16:36.770
stuff because that's where they hid their script.

01:16:40.529 --> 01:16:43.729
Oh, but anyhow, the coda in the song on her final

01:16:43.729 --> 01:16:47.930
outro, she's not looking for money or anything.

01:16:47.949 --> 01:16:51.010
She just wants song credit because she wrote

01:16:51.010 --> 01:16:53.569
that. And he won't give it to her because, well,

01:16:53.649 --> 01:16:56.430
I mean, allegedly all this. But he's allegedly

01:16:56.430 --> 01:17:00.619
a complete cocksmack. And judging by what I read

01:17:00.619 --> 01:17:02.600
he said, I would have to agree. Yeah, I would

01:17:02.600 --> 01:17:05.939
have to agree. Yeah, I think Eric Clapton has

01:17:05.939 --> 01:17:08.560
always been all about himself and what's best

01:17:08.560 --> 01:17:12.819
for him. Probably, eventually, if you look back

01:17:12.819 --> 01:17:16.220
far enough, one of her ancestors probably moved

01:17:16.220 --> 01:17:19.220
at least 50 feet in some direction, so Eric Clapton

01:17:19.220 --> 01:17:21.460
would think she was an immigrant and hate her

01:17:21.460 --> 01:17:25.949
for life. Okay, good, good. Allegedly. So I'm

01:17:25.949 --> 01:17:27.949
from this side of the rock, and you're from that

01:17:27.949 --> 01:17:30.329
side of the rock? Well, you're no good. Well,

01:17:30.329 --> 01:17:32.850
you don't count. Yeah. You're less than human.

01:17:32.850 --> 01:17:34.350
That side of the rock does not count. We need

01:17:34.350 --> 01:17:39.430
to pass laws against your kind. Yes. Oh, man.

01:17:40.369 --> 01:17:42.869
Derek, Eric. Eric, Derek, Derek, Eric. Eric,

01:17:42.909 --> 01:17:46.270
Derek. I wonder if anyone ever called him Eric

01:17:46.270 --> 01:17:49.569
in the Domino's just for the fuck of it. Eric

01:17:49.569 --> 01:17:54.510
in the Clapton -O's. Or just how about Dickface?

01:17:55.090 --> 01:17:57.529
Yeah. Dickface and the Dominoes. That is a great

01:17:57.529 --> 01:18:00.229
song. Dickface and the Dominoes. Hey, who you

01:18:00.229 --> 01:18:04.270
listen to? Dickface and the Dominoes. It sounds

01:18:04.270 --> 01:18:07.430
a lot like Eric Clapton. You notice Eric Clapton

01:18:07.430 --> 01:18:10.850
has a very, very weak chin. He generally grows

01:18:10.850 --> 01:18:14.229
a beard to try to cover it. Yeah. But like that

01:18:14.229 --> 01:18:16.890
politician Mitch McConnell. Oh, yeah. Who looks

01:18:16.890 --> 01:18:19.329
like a turtle. The one that freaks us up all

01:18:19.329 --> 01:18:22.050
the time. That's what Clapton looks like. He

01:18:22.050 --> 01:18:24.250
doesn't have facial hair. He's got that... Basically

01:18:24.250 --> 01:18:28.289
a disappearing chin. He was not the most attractive

01:18:28.289 --> 01:18:31.869
guy. No, no. There again, if he wasn't who he

01:18:31.869 --> 01:18:34.890
was, he probably would be, well, he'd probably

01:18:34.890 --> 01:18:36.529
still be a virgin, actually. He would have never

01:18:36.529 --> 01:18:41.390
got Patty Harrison. Yeah. Looking the way he

01:18:41.390 --> 01:18:44.729
does and having the white supremacist attitudes

01:18:44.729 --> 01:18:46.949
he does, if he weren't a musician, he would never

01:18:46.949 --> 01:18:49.229
have gotten Lady. Oh, no, no, no, never. Never.

01:18:51.689 --> 01:18:56.880
So. Let's see. What am I thinking? I don't know.

01:18:58.140 --> 01:19:00.460
You got anything else? I'm kind of out of material

01:19:00.460 --> 01:19:03.340
right now. There was something I was thinking

01:19:03.340 --> 01:19:04.859
of when you were talking about that thing earlier.

01:19:05.600 --> 01:19:07.239
Okay. That sounds pretty specific, doesn't it?

01:19:07.359 --> 01:19:08.979
Yeah, it does. That thing? Oh, yeah, yeah, that

01:19:08.979 --> 01:19:11.699
thing. Yeah, okay. Oh, well, I'll remember at

01:19:11.699 --> 01:19:13.760
some point so we can just get back to it, I guess.

01:19:13.899 --> 01:19:17.760
Okay. But, yeah, I'm pretty much all used up

01:19:17.760 --> 01:19:21.800
at this point. Okay. How long have we got? I

01:19:21.800 --> 01:19:23.920
don't know. Looks like an hour and a quarter.

01:19:24.699 --> 01:19:26.600
All right. You got anything else you want to

01:19:26.600 --> 01:19:29.760
talk about or you want to call it? My back hurts.

01:19:29.819 --> 01:19:31.539
Can we talk about that for a second? No, let's

01:19:31.539 --> 01:19:33.140
not talk about that. No, mine does too. We can

01:19:33.140 --> 01:19:35.899
talk about that. Harley's from standing up at

01:19:35.899 --> 01:19:37.000
the concert the other night. No, that's what

01:19:37.000 --> 01:19:38.579
I was getting ready to say. It was killing us,

01:19:38.600 --> 01:19:41.199
but we did it. Yeah, yeah. I almost sat down

01:19:41.199 --> 01:19:43.020
too, and I'm like, I can't. I've got to just.

01:19:43.199 --> 01:19:46.199
I sat down a couple times just to get my bearings,

01:19:46.239 --> 01:19:49.439
but there were like three people standing up

01:19:49.439 --> 01:19:51.979
for the opening act. And they must have never

01:19:51.979 --> 01:19:53.739
turned around because they would have seen that

01:19:53.739 --> 01:19:55.479
they were the only people in the entire place

01:19:55.479 --> 01:19:57.520
standing up. And then there's that one person

01:19:57.520 --> 01:19:59.460
off to the right who had their arms above their

01:19:59.460 --> 01:20:02.039
head dancing to every single song of the opening

01:20:02.039 --> 01:20:04.199
act. And I love it. Jerry Cantrell finally, he

01:20:04.199 --> 01:20:06.859
said, hey, you know, maybe you could just put

01:20:06.859 --> 01:20:10.079
your hands in front of you. And, you know, I

01:20:10.079 --> 01:20:12.199
get that you're excited and you like it and we

01:20:12.199 --> 01:20:14.180
love it. But, you know, maybe, you know, just

01:20:14.180 --> 01:20:16.359
do that the rest of the show. Yeah. And she did.

01:20:17.130 --> 01:20:19.409
And it was a very nice gesture from Jerry Cantrell.

01:20:19.449 --> 01:20:21.670
He could see the people behind her who were like,

01:20:21.810 --> 01:20:25.569
I can't see shit. Yeah, yeah. There was a concert

01:20:25.569 --> 01:20:30.210
back in the 70s, maybe early 80s. Yeah, it would

01:20:30.210 --> 01:20:33.090
have been early 80s. Frank Zappa came and played

01:20:33.090 --> 01:20:38.470
at Municipal Hall. No, Memorial Hall Municipal

01:20:38.470 --> 01:20:40.829
Auditorium. That's what they call it. It's an

01:20:40.829 --> 01:20:43.789
auditorium. Auditorium, yep. And it's still called

01:20:43.789 --> 01:20:47.449
that. It is still called that. But he came out

01:20:47.449 --> 01:20:50.890
and everybody stood up and started screaming

01:20:50.890 --> 01:20:53.670
and yelling. And he waited for it to die down

01:20:53.670 --> 01:20:56.189
a little bit. And then he said, okay, everyone

01:20:56.189 --> 01:20:59.630
sit down. Come on, just everyone go ahead and

01:20:59.630 --> 01:21:03.750
sit down. So after a few seconds, everyone went

01:21:03.750 --> 01:21:05.989
ahead and sat down. And he said, you paid for

01:21:05.989 --> 01:21:08.710
those seats. You might as well use them. And

01:21:08.710 --> 01:21:12.260
he said, now, this is a musical concert. This

01:21:12.260 --> 01:21:14.640
is not target practice. So if you throw anything

01:21:14.640 --> 01:21:16.680
at the stage, we're going to stop playing and

01:21:16.680 --> 01:21:21.380
leave. And as long as that's understood. And

01:21:21.380 --> 01:21:24.380
the whole audience was like, cool, man, whatever.

01:21:24.739 --> 01:21:27.600
And nobody stood up and nobody threw anything.

01:21:27.779 --> 01:21:30.180
Because they respected the band and the artist.

01:21:30.260 --> 01:21:33.020
This is what he wants. Okay, we're not going

01:21:33.020 --> 01:21:37.119
to be an ass. Wouldn't work now. Wouldn't work

01:21:37.119 --> 01:21:40.880
at all. Not at all. Not at all. It was like you

01:21:40.880 --> 01:21:43.880
get the example of Philly's Karen, who went and

01:21:43.880 --> 01:21:46.399
yanked that baseball away from that kid. Oh,

01:21:46.399 --> 01:21:50.779
yeah, that was atrocious. Yes. Like a couple

01:21:50.779 --> 01:21:55.859
weeks later, there was a Japanese baseball player

01:21:55.859 --> 01:22:00.159
who hit a record -setting home run. And a woman

01:22:00.159 --> 01:22:03.819
in the crowd caught the ball. And other people

01:22:03.819 --> 01:22:06.380
wanted to see it, so she just handed it to them.

01:22:07.410 --> 01:22:09.289
And then other people wanted to see it, so they'd

01:22:09.289 --> 01:22:11.430
pass it. That ball got passed around the whole

01:22:11.430 --> 01:22:13.930
stadium for the rest of the game. But as the

01:22:13.930 --> 01:22:16.529
game was winding down, it made its way back to

01:22:16.529 --> 01:22:18.550
her, and she got the ball back. That's incredible.

01:22:18.569 --> 01:22:23.710
No one even considered stealing it. In America,

01:22:23.970 --> 01:22:25.789
the first person who got it was like stuffing

01:22:25.789 --> 01:22:27.250
it down their pants and running for the exit.

01:22:27.369 --> 01:22:29.909
Yes. In Japan, they don't do that. They respect

01:22:29.909 --> 01:22:31.630
each other too much. They're not going to do

01:22:31.630 --> 01:22:34.539
that. It's a totally different culture. And there

01:22:34.539 --> 01:22:37.319
are other cultures. If you see a single woman

01:22:37.319 --> 01:22:39.020
on the street, you're supposed to beat her up

01:22:39.020 --> 01:22:40.720
and throw her in the ditch or something. And

01:22:40.720 --> 01:22:42.739
we're not like that. So I'm not saying America's

01:22:42.739 --> 01:22:45.279
horrible. It's just different. Yeah, we're different.

01:22:45.479 --> 01:22:48.060
In America, we've been trained to, if you can

01:22:48.060 --> 01:22:50.359
get something for nothing, do it no matter what.

01:22:50.920 --> 01:22:53.260
If you can get away with something, do it no

01:22:53.260 --> 01:22:56.380
matter what. I don't want to get away with stuff.

01:22:56.500 --> 01:22:59.060
I don't want to get away with murder or speeding

01:22:59.060 --> 01:23:02.779
or driving drunk through a school zone. I don't

01:23:02.779 --> 01:23:05.000
care about getting away with something. No, me

01:23:05.000 --> 01:23:07.539
neither. Yeah. So it's refreshing to be in a

01:23:07.539 --> 01:23:10.279
crowd of people who kind of get it, and we're

01:23:10.279 --> 01:23:13.000
there to listen to the music, and no one's trying

01:23:13.000 --> 01:23:16.100
to flex on anybody, and everyone is pretty much

01:23:16.100 --> 01:23:18.840
leaving everyone alone. There were no fights.

01:23:19.000 --> 01:23:21.739
There were no arguments. Never saw even a whiff

01:23:21.739 --> 01:23:26.140
of security. It was just nice. Yeah. It was pleasant.

01:23:26.899 --> 01:23:32.220
Yep, I agree. What was I going to say now? I

01:23:32.220 --> 01:23:34.479
was posting for this because I forgot to. We

01:23:34.479 --> 01:23:37.819
haven't posted in a while. I told everyone to

01:23:37.819 --> 01:23:41.939
come on down because we're almost done. Show

01:23:41.939 --> 01:23:44.920
up. We won't be here. But on there, I put all

01:23:44.920 --> 01:23:47.060
my signature on that like I do whenever I do

01:23:47.060 --> 01:23:50.000
when we do a podcast at home. At the very end,

01:23:50.000 --> 01:23:55.300
I always put it's over there. No explanation.

01:23:57.180 --> 01:23:59.300
No, Victoria, you must have put your lips on

01:23:59.300 --> 01:24:03.520
it. It sounds dirty. It doesn't mean a thing.

01:24:03.640 --> 01:24:07.479
Nope, it doesn't. But, yeah, the funny thing

01:24:07.479 --> 01:24:10.319
is, I mean, it doesn't mean anything at all because

01:24:10.319 --> 01:24:14.420
someone during the course of the day needs to

01:24:14.420 --> 01:24:16.779
know where something is. Yeah. And someone always

01:24:16.779 --> 01:24:19.720
goes, oh, I think it's over there. Yeah. And

01:24:19.720 --> 01:24:21.359
that's where it originated. I'm like, okay, well,

01:24:21.439 --> 01:24:23.560
I guess we're going to be over there. It's over

01:24:23.560 --> 01:24:24.979
there. Whatever you're looking for, it's over

01:24:24.979 --> 01:24:27.619
there. It's over there, yes. So I'm helping everybody

01:24:27.619 --> 01:24:33.439
out while posting for us. So. Let's see. This

01:24:33.439 --> 01:24:38.020
shit, I don't know what else. I don't know. Might

01:24:38.020 --> 01:24:39.880
be time to go get a nice cold drink of water

01:24:39.880 --> 01:24:42.779
somewhere. Let's do that. All right. Thank you

01:24:42.779 --> 01:24:44.699
guys for listening. Our listenership is way up.

01:24:44.699 --> 01:24:46.960
We really, really appreciate it. We do. You guys

01:24:46.960 --> 01:24:49.300
are the best. And go fuck yourself.
