WEBVTT

00:00:06.290 --> 00:00:14.990
We are the music creeps. We are the music creeps.

00:00:15.589 --> 00:00:20.710
We are. All right. Here we go. And we still got

00:00:20.710 --> 00:00:24.329
it. Yep. All right. We're just as bad as we always

00:00:24.329 --> 00:00:26.629
were. Everyone around is cringing. We did it

00:00:26.629 --> 00:00:29.030
right. I think that guy really threw up a little.

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:32.700
Yeah, he did. Oh, that dog's licking. Oh, my

00:00:32.700 --> 00:00:37.060
God. Oh. Oh. Oh. Well, it's a dog. That's what

00:00:37.060 --> 00:00:39.640
they do. All right. Well, like we said, we are

00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:43.619
the music creeps. Yes. I'm still Topher. And

00:00:43.619 --> 00:00:49.350
I'm still Mark. Somehow. Yeah. Nobody else wanted

00:00:49.350 --> 00:00:51.049
to be Topher, so I'm kind of stuck with that.

00:00:51.049 --> 00:00:53.229
I thought someone else was going to, too, but,

00:00:53.270 --> 00:00:55.530
I mean, you know, everyone stepped up. You know,

00:00:55.570 --> 00:00:57.750
it's like Mark is available, and everyone ran.

00:00:57.950 --> 00:01:02.770
Yeah. Everybody ran. All right. You got anything

00:01:02.770 --> 00:01:04.769
you want to go into? I got some bullet points.

00:01:04.849 --> 00:01:08.409
I got some rock and roll odd facts. I got a little

00:01:08.409 --> 00:01:13.049
bit of a... Oh, you want to go into the Nikki

00:01:13.049 --> 00:01:16.129
Sixx drama for a little bit again? Okay. Yeah.

00:01:16.189 --> 00:01:18.939
All right. Okay. Mick Marr's daughter, this is

00:01:18.939 --> 00:01:20.579
kind of old news. I've had this for a little

00:01:20.579 --> 00:01:22.219
while, but you know what? If you heard it before,

00:01:22.340 --> 00:01:23.780
then you're going to hear it again. Yeah. Or

00:01:23.780 --> 00:01:26.000
you're going to shut us off. Hang on. Tell me

00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:27.700
when the minute mark is so we'll get credit.

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:30.680
We passed the minute mark. Okay, all right. Mick

00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:33.379
Marr's daughter is Stormy Deal because his name

00:01:33.379 --> 00:01:36.500
is Bob Deal, believe it or not. And she recently

00:01:36.500 --> 00:01:38.959
responded to Nikki Sixx on Instagram regarding

00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.340
a feud between Sixx and her father. Sixx had

00:01:42.340 --> 00:01:44.799
accused Mick Marr of lying and betraying the

00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:48.290
band. leading to an ongoing public dispute. In

00:01:48.290 --> 00:01:50.290
her Instagram post, Steele defended her father,

00:01:50.370 --> 00:01:55.530
calling the situation classic empath versus narcissist

00:01:55.530 --> 00:02:00.010
dynamic. And stating that Six's actions were

00:02:00.010 --> 00:02:03.069
an attempt at a smear campaign. Yeah, I can believe

00:02:03.069 --> 00:02:07.489
that. Yeah, I do too. I think I pretty much take

00:02:07.489 --> 00:02:10.849
her side on this. So, of course, he had a rebuttal

00:02:10.849 --> 00:02:13.050
because he obviously has nothing else to do these

00:02:13.050 --> 00:02:16.580
days. That's true. Nikki Sixx accusations in

00:02:16.580 --> 00:02:19.139
a recent statement. Nikki Sixx accused McMars

00:02:19.139 --> 00:02:21.419
of lying to fans and attempting to harm the band.

00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.259
Referencing ongoing arbitration between Mars

00:02:24.259 --> 00:02:26.879
and Motley Crue. He also expressed shame and

00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:31.039
Mars hinted at more revelations to come. Interesting.

00:02:31.300 --> 00:02:33.719
Yep. She stated she was initially not going to

00:02:33.719 --> 00:02:35.580
comment but felt compelled to defend her father.

00:02:35.979 --> 00:02:39.379
She described the situation as empath versus

00:02:39.379 --> 00:02:42.919
narcissist dynamics, suggesting Sixx... resorts

00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:45.340
to smear campaigns when he can't provoke her

00:02:45.340 --> 00:02:49.219
father. To me, I see that too. Yeah, I've known

00:02:49.219 --> 00:02:50.699
a lot of people that when they don't get their

00:02:50.699 --> 00:02:53.139
own way, they go right to the insults. Yeah,

00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:54.939
yeah, yeah. The first thing they do is they start

00:02:54.939 --> 00:02:56.699
making fun of him and saying shit like that.

00:02:56.819 --> 00:02:58.819
Yeah, it's a pretty common reaction. Yeah, and

00:02:58.819 --> 00:03:01.379
that works against the person because I look

00:03:01.379 --> 00:03:03.379
at them and go, wait a minute. If you're talking

00:03:03.379 --> 00:03:05.080
about something they did, that's one thing, but

00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:07.099
if you just want to try to mock them and make

00:03:07.099 --> 00:03:09.520
fun of them, don't bother. Yeah, it shows you

00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:11.159
don't have anything else to talk about. Yeah,

00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:14.939
so also she accused Six of ruining both Motley

00:03:14.939 --> 00:03:18.159
Crue's legacy, which I believe he did, and criticized

00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.439
him for choosing bitterness. I agree with both

00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:24.560
of those. A few days later, and to me this was

00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:26.520
a set -up question, and you tell me if you think

00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:28.919
so too. Okay. Sometimes we'll have someone ask

00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:30.520
a question because they want to say something

00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:32.860
but don't want to act like that's what they've

00:03:32.860 --> 00:03:35.340
been brooding over. I think this is what he was

00:03:35.340 --> 00:03:38.439
brooding over. So he had, in my opinion, asked

00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:41.460
someone on X, Twitter, whatever, alluded to Deal's

00:03:41.460 --> 00:03:44.180
comments when asking Six about his narcissistic

00:03:44.180 --> 00:03:48.699
tendencies. You really aren't a narcissist, are

00:03:48.699 --> 00:03:51.189
you? They wrote. You worked hard to get where

00:03:51.189 --> 00:03:53.129
you are and been through hell and back, and you

00:03:53.129 --> 00:03:55.669
should take pride in that. Tell me I didn't come

00:03:55.669 --> 00:03:58.569
from his mouth. Yeah. In response to the fan,

00:03:58.770 --> 00:04:01.250
Six agreed that he doesn't consider himself to

00:04:01.250 --> 00:04:03.610
be a narcissist. They never do. No, they never

00:04:03.610 --> 00:04:07.110
do. That's why they're narcissists. I've been

00:04:07.110 --> 00:04:09.409
in therapy since I found recovery. That right

00:04:09.409 --> 00:04:11.870
there is a narcissistic statement, in my opinion.

00:04:12.370 --> 00:04:16.069
Look how great I am. Yeah, yeah, I did it. He

00:04:16.069 --> 00:04:17.310
thinks he's better than everybody else because

00:04:17.310 --> 00:04:19.569
he's able to do that. But anyhow, I've been in

00:04:19.569 --> 00:04:22.230
therapy since I found recovery and have never

00:04:22.230 --> 00:04:24.910
been labeled that, which doesn't matter. No.

00:04:25.410 --> 00:04:28.310
Said people use it as an insult without understanding

00:04:28.310 --> 00:04:33.189
what it actually is. So the answer is no. Just

00:04:33.189 --> 00:04:35.870
because, I mean, a person can be a narcissist,

00:04:35.870 --> 00:04:39.949
but not to everybody. Yes. That's a great point.

00:04:40.089 --> 00:04:43.100
Yeah. In my opinion, I think he's been a narcissist

00:04:43.100 --> 00:04:46.199
for a long time. And this goes back to not just

00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.759
Mick Mars. Yeah. But he's insulted other people.

00:04:49.819 --> 00:04:51.879
He's had problems with other people. I remember

00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:54.079
Godsmack wrote the song, You're Crying Like a

00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:56.980
Bitch About Me. And the reason is because when

00:04:56.980 --> 00:04:59.439
they were touring with him, Nicky had this set

00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:01.139
of demands. You can't do this. You can do this.

00:05:01.180 --> 00:05:03.829
You can't do this. When Ozzy gave them... Not

00:05:03.829 --> 00:05:06.069
only did he help start their career by letting

00:05:06.069 --> 00:05:08.990
them be the opening act, at that time, Ozzy could

00:05:08.990 --> 00:05:10.870
have had anybody as his opening act. Yes, he

00:05:10.870 --> 00:05:13.550
could. He let them do it, and he gave them free

00:05:13.550 --> 00:05:15.509
use of the stage, sound equipment, and everything.

00:05:15.810 --> 00:05:17.990
Yeah, he helped them. He promoted their career,

00:05:18.069 --> 00:05:20.350
basically. Yeah, he said, go at it. Do whatever

00:05:20.350 --> 00:05:22.230
you can. You're not going to upstage me. He knew

00:05:22.230 --> 00:05:25.110
better. They did great, and everybody loved them.

00:05:25.149 --> 00:05:27.170
They were crazy, but they weren't screaming for

00:05:27.170 --> 00:05:28.949
Motley when Ozzy took the stage. They were like,

00:05:29.029 --> 00:05:31.660
there's Ozzy. Everything else doesn't matter.

00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:39.339
So he took advantage of all that. The music that

00:05:39.339 --> 00:05:41.699
was written on the early albums are in question.

00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:46.500
Who wrote them? He has a lot of, I don't know,

00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:51.899
around him to be this bold. And for him to do

00:05:51.899 --> 00:05:55.779
that to a young band starting up and try to stifle

00:05:55.779 --> 00:05:57.860
him and push them around and bully them, in my

00:05:57.860 --> 00:06:01.079
opinion, is absurd when they got the golden treatment

00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:04.160
from ozzy yeah don't you don't you reciprocate

00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:06.579
that you go look we got a lot of help from a

00:06:06.579 --> 00:06:09.420
legend so now that we're older and you're coming

00:06:09.420 --> 00:06:12.300
up we're going to help you too yeah but godsmack

00:06:12.300 --> 00:06:15.120
ended up hating him and writing a song about

00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:17.740
him i guess it almost came to fisticuffs a few

00:06:17.740 --> 00:06:20.339
times i would imagine yeah they got tired of

00:06:20.339 --> 00:06:23.250
him brooding over everything they're doing And,

00:06:23.250 --> 00:06:25.370
yes, it was so bad that even Vince Newman was

00:06:25.370 --> 00:06:27.129
like going, man, guys, don't fucking worry about

00:06:27.129 --> 00:06:30.410
that. Just do it, you know. Yeah. Quit micromanaging.

00:06:30.410 --> 00:06:33.649
Quit being the nanny. Yeah. Yeah, so narcissist,

00:06:34.069 --> 00:06:36.470
I think I would tend to agree with that. Yeah.

00:06:37.850 --> 00:06:40.550
So, yeah, I mean, I don't know. You got anything

00:06:40.550 --> 00:06:44.110
else to add to that? Just to further my point

00:06:44.110 --> 00:06:47.930
is I've known people who've treated me in one

00:06:47.930 --> 00:06:51.209
way but treated everyone else in a better way.

00:06:51.850 --> 00:06:54.129
Oh, I've known that too. And it's not because

00:06:54.129 --> 00:06:56.050
there's something wrong with me. It's because

00:06:56.050 --> 00:06:59.329
they've decided to treat me badly. Or they're

00:06:59.329 --> 00:07:01.370
threatened by you. Yeah, yeah. One of the number

00:07:01.370 --> 00:07:03.790
one reasons is because they're threatened by

00:07:03.790 --> 00:07:06.410
you. Yeah. For whatever reason, they feel threatened

00:07:06.410 --> 00:07:09.370
by you. So they have the need to treat you, belittle

00:07:09.370 --> 00:07:11.110
you, and make you think you're not that much.

00:07:11.290 --> 00:07:14.170
Yeah, yeah. So, I mean, I've got a family member

00:07:14.170 --> 00:07:18.430
who has always been a relentless bully to me.

00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:21.319
But to most other people in his life, he's a

00:07:21.319 --> 00:07:25.259
relentless kiss -ass. But he chose to be a bully

00:07:25.259 --> 00:07:28.720
to me. But nobody else sees him as a bully because

00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.680
that's not who he is with them. But he's every

00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:35.120
bit a bully. It's just he's selective. It's also

00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:38.160
part of the act. It's also part of the act. So

00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:41.160
if you complain, they go, well, he's been great

00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:44.279
to me. That must be him. That must be you. You're

00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:47.639
just doing this. What's wrong with you? Yeah,

00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:50.720
it's an act. And then again, what he feels threatened

00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.120
by you, I believe, something, you know. Yeah.

00:07:53.899 --> 00:07:56.240
Well, he's just crushingly insecure about his

00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:58.379
own life. Well, there you go. Yeah. That'll do

00:07:58.379 --> 00:08:00.819
it right there. Yeah. And you're happy and doing

00:08:00.819 --> 00:08:04.899
well and, you know, you're happily retired, do

00:08:04.899 --> 00:08:06.620
podcasts. You've got a lot of other interests,

00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:10.860
music, everything. Yeah. He needs something to

00:08:10.860 --> 00:08:13.259
do. Just like a friend of mine that we talked,

00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:15.379
we spoke a couple of times on the podcast about.

00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:18.000
I wasn't done at first, but then things led to

00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.899
it, kind of. But when I posted that we're doing

00:08:20.899 --> 00:08:25.060
a podcast, and we're, oh, we sent a get well

00:08:25.060 --> 00:08:29.399
card to Branch, Brian Branch of the Detroit Lions

00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:31.459
for being relentlessly bullied by the Kansas

00:08:31.459 --> 00:08:36.879
City Chiefs. Yeah. And so my friend, or supposedly

00:08:36.879 --> 00:08:38.759
used to be a friend, I don't think he's so much

00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:43.700
of a friend now, but. He wrote, I wish you would

00:08:43.700 --> 00:08:45.379
get better. He goes, I know you're not sick.

00:08:45.460 --> 00:08:48.820
I just want you to get better. I've seen that.

00:08:49.139 --> 00:08:52.480
Yeah. So I wanted him to explain. I said, please

00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:54.799
explain. He never explained, which means he pussied

00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:56.679
out, which means he meant it like I thought he

00:08:56.679 --> 00:09:01.320
did. Yeah. So anyhow, where was I going with

00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:04.580
this? Oh, the little tug, the little insult,

00:09:04.820 --> 00:09:08.000
okay? And I said this on the podcast, I mean

00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:09.940
this. He needs something to do. He's retired

00:09:09.940 --> 00:09:12.360
now from what I understand. He needs a hobby.

00:09:12.460 --> 00:09:15.340
If he's worried about a podcast and if he doesn't

00:09:15.340 --> 00:09:17.500
particularly like it, why would you protest it,

00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:20.179
especially a supposed friend online? Why would

00:09:20.179 --> 00:09:21.980
you protest it? Why would you say something like

00:09:21.980 --> 00:09:26.539
that? What is the goal of doing that? You know,

00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:29.240
I've wondered that myself because there's people

00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:34.179
in my life who I know who are just so relentlessly

00:09:34.179 --> 00:09:39.970
negative. about so much yeah and i really i really

00:09:39.970 --> 00:09:42.029
come to the conclusion that they're not they

00:09:42.029 --> 00:09:44.350
don't have a goal in mind it's just every day

00:09:44.350 --> 00:09:46.909
wake morning every morning they wake up and they

00:09:46.909 --> 00:09:50.850
choose to hate yes it's like i'm gonna make hate

00:09:50.850 --> 00:09:53.110
a big part of my life and i'm gonna hate all

00:09:53.110 --> 00:09:55.809
day long and they just they decide from the moment

00:09:55.809 --> 00:09:57.830
they wake up to hate and then they find things

00:09:57.830 --> 00:10:00.789
to feed the hate and they find ways to express

00:10:00.789 --> 00:10:06.679
their hate and disapproval and insult and I don't

00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:09.019
know how they go on day after day just living

00:10:09.019 --> 00:10:12.000
in hate, but I've removed several people like

00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:16.000
that from my life. Well, yeah, and I may do that

00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:18.059
for this person too. We'll see. Right now I'm

00:10:18.059 --> 00:10:21.399
just letting him ride, but he's on notice. And

00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:23.899
him being out of my life means nothing. Yeah.

00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:26.320
I don't talk to the guy anymore. As a matter

00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:28.740
of fact, I knew and know some people that really

00:10:28.740 --> 00:10:30.980
dislike him, but I don't focus on that either.

00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:36.039
But anyhow, this got into something else. Anyhow,

00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:38.720
you have something you want to go into? I wanted

00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:43.519
to talk about a musician who died recently under

00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:47.200
slightly odd circumstances. Oh. This guy's name

00:10:47.200 --> 00:10:51.830
is Todd Snyder. Now, he wasn't a real big act,

00:10:52.129 --> 00:10:54.570
but he's putting out albums. I've got one of

00:10:54.570 --> 00:10:58.190
his called Songs from the Daily Planet. And he's

00:10:58.190 --> 00:11:01.750
kind of a mix between a little bluesy, a little

00:11:01.750 --> 00:11:05.389
folksy, a little country maybe, a little rock.

00:11:06.350 --> 00:11:09.210
You can kind of tell all of his songs were written

00:11:09.210 --> 00:11:13.289
on guitar. Let me put it that way. But he's pretty

00:11:13.289 --> 00:11:16.690
clever, and he's had a good career. Born in Oregon,

00:11:16.809 --> 00:11:19.200
grew up in Texas. and kind of touring around

00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:23.620
for many years. Todd Snyder, Tom's brother. Yes.

00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:26.419
Yes, okay. I guess they were twins, Tom and Todd.

00:11:26.580 --> 00:11:30.220
Yeah, that's what I thought. Anyway, so he was

00:11:30.220 --> 00:11:35.559
on tour, and I forgot the city he was in, but

00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:39.360
he got into an altercation either at or after

00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:42.519
the show, and somebody physically attacked him

00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:46.799
and kind of beat the crap out of him. And he

00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.220
wound up going to the hospital to get treated

00:11:50.220 --> 00:11:54.019
in the ER. But then an hour or so later, the

00:11:54.019 --> 00:11:58.360
police were there to arrest him for the way he

00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:00.460
was treating everybody in the ER. He was yelling

00:12:00.460 --> 00:12:03.100
and making threats. Kind of like Mark Sanchez.

00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:07.080
Yeah. He got really injured, but he was the aggressor

00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:10.159
and went to jail. He was stabbed. That's right,

00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:12.340
that's right. I think with Todd Snyder, they're

00:12:12.340 --> 00:12:14.779
not really saying what started the initial altercation,

00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:18.379
but the police eventually arrested him for the

00:12:18.379 --> 00:12:21.500
way he was behaving at the hospital and took

00:12:21.500 --> 00:12:25.700
him into custody. And then less than a day later,

00:12:25.779 --> 00:12:31.259
he died of complications of pneumonia. That is

00:12:31.259 --> 00:12:35.419
odd. Isn't that weird? So he was on stage singing

00:12:35.419 --> 00:12:38.600
his ass off, and then like a day later, he's

00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:40.950
dead from the... pneumonia complications? How

00:12:40.950 --> 00:12:43.210
in the world is he singing on tour if he's got

00:12:43.210 --> 00:12:45.450
pneumonia? I smell bullshit. Yeah, so something

00:12:45.450 --> 00:12:47.850
weird is going on here with Todd Snyder's death.

00:12:48.250 --> 00:12:51.450
My opinion is, I mean, and this, I don't know

00:12:51.450 --> 00:12:55.889
any of it, okay, but, okay, they beat him up

00:12:55.889 --> 00:12:59.710
because he was being, whatever he was doing that

00:12:59.710 --> 00:13:01.750
night, being disruptive on drugs or something.

00:13:01.950 --> 00:13:05.029
They went too far. Yeah. Now they're hiding it.

00:13:05.049 --> 00:13:08.600
Oh, he had pneumonia. Yeah, yeah. One thing for

00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:11.000
sure is he didn't die from complications pneumonia.

00:13:11.460 --> 00:13:14.320
Hey, my fellow heavy breathers. This is Dash

00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:21.940
Riptide with your music news. For a nerd to take

00:13:21.940 --> 00:13:24.539
center stage on Stranger Things float at Macy's

00:13:24.539 --> 00:13:27.120
Thanksgiving Day Parade. I remember the infamous

00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:29.500
Kiss float years ago where the large Gibson guitar

00:13:29.500 --> 00:13:32.100
on their float was replaced with a much smaller

00:13:32.100 --> 00:13:34.860
ugly one. Paul was seen mincing and bitching.

00:13:34.919 --> 00:13:39.329
So in other words, he was being normal. George

00:13:39.329 --> 00:13:44.230
Thorogood has announced a world tour. Minus the

00:13:44.230 --> 00:13:48.809
rest of the world. It kicks off March 8th. Thousand

00:13:48.809 --> 00:13:51.009
Oaks, California. March 10th. Napa, California.

00:13:51.190 --> 00:13:54.110
March 17th. Kamloops, California. March 19th.

00:13:54.129 --> 00:13:57.169
Parkland, California. It ends in Fort Wayne on

00:13:57.169 --> 00:14:00.090
March 31st with a Hamilton, Canada three days

00:14:00.090 --> 00:14:02.529
later. And that appears to be all the tour as

00:14:02.529 --> 00:14:07.090
of date. He is 150, so he probably is not going

00:14:07.090 --> 00:14:10.190
to tour more than that. This is Gash Ruktine,

00:14:10.289 --> 00:14:13.590
and that was your music news. If it's too loud,

00:14:13.710 --> 00:14:23.470
you probably have ear damage, just like me. If

00:14:23.470 --> 00:14:25.269
that's what they're telling us, then you know

00:14:25.269 --> 00:14:27.269
for sure that's not true. No, it's not true.

00:14:27.509 --> 00:14:29.789
It's like the way Bob Saget died. Yeah, yeah.

00:14:29.850 --> 00:14:31.610
He actually just kind of fell over and bumped

00:14:31.610 --> 00:14:34.049
his head. No, he didn't. No, he had blunt force

00:14:34.049 --> 00:14:37.730
trauma that's unaccounted for. The initial coroner

00:14:37.730 --> 00:14:39.710
said the only way you can get a skull fracture

00:14:39.710 --> 00:14:42.210
like that is to swing a baseball bat as hard

00:14:42.210 --> 00:14:45.190
as you can. I'll tell you. There's no way Bob

00:14:45.190 --> 00:14:47.230
Saget fell over and did that damage to himself.

00:14:47.370 --> 00:14:49.970
Absolutely no way. Yeah, I think there might

00:14:49.970 --> 00:14:52.570
have been a girl involved and a pissed off guy.

00:14:52.769 --> 00:14:56.490
That's classic Bob Crane stuff. Yeah. Google

00:14:56.490 --> 00:15:00.529
it. Yeah. But in Bob Saget's case, he had a huge

00:15:00.529 --> 00:15:03.529
body of work with TV shows and series and stuff

00:15:03.529 --> 00:15:07.259
that would become... utterly worthless if the

00:15:07.259 --> 00:15:09.860
actual circumstances surrounding his death got

00:15:09.860 --> 00:15:14.779
out. It's like that 70s show with Danny Masterson

00:15:14.779 --> 00:15:16.700
on it. Oh, yeah. I won't watch it anymore because

00:15:16.700 --> 00:15:18.799
the guy's a rapist. Yeah, and also... And he

00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:22.360
lied about it for decades. Yeah. And Ashton Kutcher

00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.139
and Mila Kunis are pretty slimeball people also.

00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:28.059
It's like, yeah, I ain't watching that show anymore.

00:15:28.379 --> 00:15:30.179
No, me neither, and I don't care for him either.

00:15:30.669 --> 00:15:33.509
So I think with Todd Snyder is they didn't want

00:15:33.509 --> 00:15:36.529
anyone to look any farther into exactly why this

00:15:36.529 --> 00:15:38.789
fight happened and why he was getting so pissed

00:15:38.789 --> 00:15:41.210
off in the hospital and all this stuff. It's

00:15:41.210 --> 00:15:43.590
like, oh, he's got like six, seven albums out,

00:15:43.690 --> 00:15:45.710
and if he dies, suddenly there'll be a surge

00:15:45.710 --> 00:15:48.690
in popularity, but only if he dies in an approved

00:15:48.690 --> 00:15:52.509
way. So they made up the pneumonia story so that...

00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:56.279
they can capitalize on his death and sell more

00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:59.000
albums. Yes. That's what it smells like to me.

00:15:59.139 --> 00:16:02.000
I think you're absolutely right. Wouldn't be

00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:03.480
the first time, wouldn't be the last time. It's

00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:07.460
happened many times. Elvis, they protected as

00:16:07.460 --> 00:16:09.779
much of that as they could. I mean, everything.

00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:16.519
Jim Morrison, The Doors. He died of an overdose

00:16:16.519 --> 00:16:19.919
in the bathroom of the bar down the street. and

00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:22.200
then drag his ass home and throw him in the bathtub

00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:24.200
and pretend he died of a heart attack in the

00:16:24.200 --> 00:16:29.200
bathtub to protect record sales. And eventually

00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:31.580
the people who did that, you know, before they

00:16:31.580 --> 00:16:33.519
died, they said, yeah, here's what really happened.

00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:37.759
Yeah. Isn't that funny? Yeah. So, I mean, it's

00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:41.879
been going on since. Who knows how long? At least

00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:44.799
as long as we've been alive. So this is just

00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:48.019
another example of sanitizing his mode of death

00:16:48.019 --> 00:16:50.620
in order to make sure you protect the revenue

00:16:50.620 --> 00:16:52.940
stream. Happens all the time. Michael Jackson,

00:16:53.059 --> 00:16:55.759
The Prince, all of those. By the time the real

00:16:55.759 --> 00:17:01.240
story got out, Errol was already over it. I've

00:17:01.240 --> 00:17:03.120
got some rock and roll odd facts if you want

00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:07.619
to go into that. Sure. Okay. Cream Badge was

00:17:07.619 --> 00:17:10.880
written by George Harrison. Eric Clapton and

00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:14.039
a drunken Ringo Starr who added the line about

00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:18.339
swans. That was Ringo Starr smashed. Harrison

00:17:18.339 --> 00:17:23.460
had horrible handwriting and it was meant to

00:17:23.460 --> 00:17:27.119
be called Bridge. But Clapton read it as Badge

00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:30.480
and they kept it. Wow. Bridge might be a better

00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:32.740
title. I thought so too. It would make sense.

00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:36.390
The swan line was... I told you about the swans,

00:17:36.390 --> 00:17:38.670
how they live in the park. Yes, that was Ringo

00:17:38.670 --> 00:17:39.309
Starr drunk. So that was Ringo's contribution.

00:17:39.710 --> 00:17:42.470
Okay, I can hear Ringo, I told you about the

00:17:42.470 --> 00:17:45.690
swans. He also said, you've got to hit the higher

00:17:45.690 --> 00:17:51.710
note again. At the park. That's funny, it was

00:17:51.710 --> 00:17:53.849
the bridge instead of the badge. Yeah, I thought

00:17:53.849 --> 00:17:56.029
that was really interesting. I'd never seen that

00:17:56.029 --> 00:17:58.869
ever before. I was like, wow. And then I looked

00:17:58.869 --> 00:18:01.009
it up, and it's supposedly true. Yeah, well,

00:18:01.089 --> 00:18:03.430
I had heard for years that when they wrote that

00:18:03.430 --> 00:18:05.819
song, they were all pretty wasted. This is why

00:18:05.819 --> 00:18:07.680
it doesn't make any sense. And why they said

00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.079
George, it doesn't at all. And that's why George

00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:14.519
Harrison, no, Ringo Starr was drunken. He must

00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:16.140
have been excessively, and the rest of them were

00:18:16.140 --> 00:18:18.359
just fucked up. He was like Ozzy or something.

00:18:18.539 --> 00:18:23.259
I want some swans on that thing, okay? Swan cell,

00:18:23.539 --> 00:18:25.039
I tell you. I've been noticing that for a long

00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:31.099
time. Swan cell. All right. The lyrics, Jim Morrison.

00:18:31.869 --> 00:18:33.730
Added in the latter parts, the Roadhouse Blues

00:18:33.730 --> 00:18:36.049
were originally meant to be, you've got to be

00:18:36.049 --> 00:18:38.269
a poet, you've got to choose a story, you've

00:18:38.269 --> 00:18:43.049
got to get to going to the passionate lady. That

00:18:43.049 --> 00:18:44.750
was the original lines, which kind of makes some

00:18:44.750 --> 00:18:47.509
sense. But Jim was pretty wasted when he attempted

00:18:47.509 --> 00:18:49.690
the lyrics, and Doris felt his gibberish fit

00:18:49.690 --> 00:18:52.029
the song better, and he kept rolling it in. He's

00:18:52.029 --> 00:18:54.009
like, what was he going, and then you've got

00:18:54.009 --> 00:18:56.529
to go to Poco, then you've got, you know, he

00:18:56.529 --> 00:18:59.250
keeps, it was just gibberish. Nothing, nothing

00:18:59.250 --> 00:19:01.720
legible. They just kept it going and going. Yeah.

00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:02.839
And they're like, you know what? We're just going

00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:04.779
to go with that. You got to roll, roll, roll.

00:19:04.779 --> 00:19:07.799
You got to roll, roll, roll. Yeah. And then eventually

00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:10.160
he started screaming, passionate lady, give up

00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:12.299
your vows. Yeah, he remembered that part. Yeah.

00:19:12.740 --> 00:19:15.200
Oh, yeah, if I said this part yet, I better yell

00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:20.480
it. That's right, passionate lady. Oh, my gosh.

00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:23.920
This one's pretty evident, but a lot of people

00:19:23.920 --> 00:19:27.160
may not know, but the massive country hit convoy

00:19:27.160 --> 00:19:30.259
was not about CBs. Everybody thought it was about

00:19:30.259 --> 00:19:33.640
citizen ban. It was about driving a long haul.

00:19:35.700 --> 00:19:38.240
Yeah, yeah. Well, I think it's pretty obvious,

00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:40.119
but that's what they, you know, this was the

00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:42.700
story here. And some people may not have viewed

00:19:42.700 --> 00:19:44.000
it like that. They're like, you know, they're

00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:45.339
talking about, they're all like, oh my God, it's

00:19:45.339 --> 00:19:47.200
a convoy. They thought it was about the actual

00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:50.019
radio that they use. Yeah, because CB radios

00:19:50.019 --> 00:19:51.779
at the time were suddenly getting very popular.

00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:54.700
People were having them in homes. Yeah, yeah.

00:19:55.230 --> 00:19:57.630
And then they expanded from 23 channels all the

00:19:57.630 --> 00:19:59.650
way up to 40. And everybody thought, oh, I have

00:19:59.650 --> 00:20:01.849
to go buy a new one now. Yeah, everyone's on

00:20:01.849 --> 00:20:05.670
one. If you're on 40, nobody knew what the fuck.

00:20:05.750 --> 00:20:10.910
Nobody went to 40. And I'm pretty sure you know

00:20:10.910 --> 00:20:13.950
this. I know this, but a lot of people may not

00:20:13.950 --> 00:20:16.490
know it. Leonard Skinner was named after a high

00:20:16.490 --> 00:20:20.549
school gym teacher, Leonard Skinner, who suspended

00:20:20.549 --> 00:20:24.119
them for having long hair. Yeah, and was telling

00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:25.640
them how they're never going to amount to nothing.

00:20:25.940 --> 00:20:29.619
Yes, yep. But they had to change it to Skinnerd

00:20:29.619 --> 00:20:32.720
and change Leonard into Wise, you know, so the

00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:34.779
O and the E and all that. So they didn't have

00:20:34.779 --> 00:20:38.240
to give them any money. Yes. So that was pretty

00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:43.619
cool. The Rolling Stones' iconic tongue logo,

00:20:43.759 --> 00:20:46.359
if I could say that, the Rolling Stones' iconic

00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:49.579
tongue logo was inspired by an Indian Hindu goddess

00:20:49.579 --> 00:20:55.700
Kali. Or Kali. I didn't know that at all. Yeah.

00:20:55.960 --> 00:20:57.720
Yeah, I mean, there's a couple we knew. There's

00:20:57.720 --> 00:20:59.259
a few that we didn't know on here. I thought

00:20:59.259 --> 00:21:01.799
it was a pretty good little list. I thought Big

00:21:01.799 --> 00:21:03.759
Jagger just looked down at the groupie that was

00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:06.099
kneeling in front of him and just, oh, the first

00:21:06.099 --> 00:21:08.039
thing I see is an open mouth with a tongue hanging

00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:10.279
out. I thought he looked in the mirror, seeing

00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:12.160
his enormous mouth, and said, I'm going to go

00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:16.180
with that. Everybody sees me up there, so I'm

00:21:16.180 --> 00:21:20.839
going to go with my face. Before, I think you

00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:22.380
probably know this one too, but a lot of people

00:21:22.380 --> 00:21:24.839
don't. Before playing guitar, Alex Van Halen

00:21:24.839 --> 00:21:27.700
played guitar and Eddie played drums. I knew

00:21:27.700 --> 00:21:31.000
that. And actually, however, Alex eventually

00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:33.700
became better at drums, so Eddie switched to

00:21:33.700 --> 00:21:37.420
guitar and became... Became Eddie. Really, really

00:21:37.420 --> 00:21:40.240
good. Yeah. Became Eddie, like you said. So,

00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:42.900
yeah, that was pretty good. He even had it in

00:21:42.900 --> 00:21:46.000
the book. Yeah, I remember it. supposedly the

00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:48.960
story was Eddie had to get a paper route to pay

00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:50.740
for his drums. Yes. And he'd be out delivering

00:21:50.740 --> 00:21:52.640
the papers and Alex would be home playing. Playing

00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:56.240
the drums and getting better. And I learned to

00:21:56.240 --> 00:21:58.619
appreciate Alex Van Halen much more than I used

00:21:58.619 --> 00:22:00.759
to. I used to go, symbols, yeah, okay, whatever.

00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:03.539
No, it was the way he did it. It wasn't the fact

00:22:03.539 --> 00:22:05.539
that he did it. It was the way he did it. Yeah,

00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:08.940
what really got me on board with Alex Van Halen

00:22:08.940 --> 00:22:11.480
is I saw the concert video for their Right Here,

00:22:11.539 --> 00:22:14.220
Right Now tour. Uh -huh. And the solo he does

00:22:14.220 --> 00:22:17.819
in that is. Pretty good. Pretty freaking good.

00:22:18.099 --> 00:22:23.259
Yeah. Yeah, no, he is very good. He's much better

00:22:23.259 --> 00:22:25.460
than I think he ever got credit because his brother

00:22:25.460 --> 00:22:28.400
was so outstanding. As I understand, he's retired

00:22:28.400 --> 00:22:30.279
now. He says, yeah, I'm just kind of done. I

00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:31.900
don't want to play anymore. No, he doesn't. I

00:22:31.900 --> 00:22:34.200
mean, he self -admittedly said after his brother

00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:36.059
passed away, he doesn't really have desire for

00:22:36.059 --> 00:22:39.880
music anymore. But he does have about three albums

00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:43.519
of unreleased music. Not bad. Yeah, but here's

00:22:43.519 --> 00:22:46.849
the problem. Look at A Different Kind of Truth.

00:22:47.509 --> 00:22:50.190
The last album with David Lee Roth and all that.

00:22:51.210 --> 00:22:53.730
That was a horrible album. And that was done

00:22:53.730 --> 00:22:56.190
with retread. Look at Coda from Led Zeppelin.

00:22:56.390 --> 00:22:58.730
Anything left on the floor, it was on the floor

00:22:58.730 --> 00:23:00.750
for a reason. Yeah, that's the thing. You can

00:23:00.750 --> 00:23:02.690
scrub them up and glorify them all you want,

00:23:02.750 --> 00:23:05.390
but they're not good songs. Either they weren't

00:23:05.390 --> 00:23:07.990
all that good or they weren't finished. Either

00:23:07.990 --> 00:23:11.430
way, yeah. And without Eddie there doing his

00:23:11.430 --> 00:23:15.720
stuff, no, no, no. And also another thing where

00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:19.960
they lost a lot of their stuff was, listen, Wolfgang

00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:25.119
is a phenomenal musician. Very good. But Michael

00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:27.779
Anthony was so simplistic that he made it. He

00:23:27.779 --> 00:23:30.880
made that heartbeat that he did. He made the

00:23:30.880 --> 00:23:34.319
whole songs. I mean, especially the early stuff

00:23:34.319 --> 00:23:37.220
that they really rocked. Bad Company's bass player

00:23:37.220 --> 00:23:40.259
wasn't any big deal. Buzz Burrell? Yeah. He was

00:23:40.259 --> 00:23:42.839
okay. I mean, he had to work real hard to just

00:23:42.839 --> 00:23:45.619
be okay. But they loved him, and what he did

00:23:45.619 --> 00:23:47.519
in the band was all they needed. That's all they

00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:52.039
needed, I know. I mean, you can look at... Oh,

00:23:52.059 --> 00:23:53.299
shit, I'm trying to think of the song. You know

00:23:53.299 --> 00:23:54.880
what, forget it. Anyhow, I can't think of the

00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:57.420
song, but... There was one song in particular

00:23:57.420 --> 00:24:00.319
that really shows it, because you can hear him

00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:02.720
struggling to keep up. I mean, there's just that

00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:05.359
certain little pause there. But it fits so well.

00:24:05.539 --> 00:24:07.240
It's kind of like John Bonham could have done

00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:10.220
so much more, but he's like, no, no. I'm going

00:24:10.220 --> 00:24:13.160
to hit him hard. Yeah, Ian Pace in Deep Purple.

00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:15.660
He could have overplayed his brains out, but

00:24:15.660 --> 00:24:17.700
he didn't. He played just what the song needed.

00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:19.920
And he can still play great to this day. Oh,

00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:23.640
yeah. The guy's phenomenal. Oh yeah, he is one

00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:25.980
of the most underrated drummers ever. Yeah, he

00:24:25.980 --> 00:24:28.160
really is. Because he really wrote the tempo

00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:33.240
for the song. Man. Yeah. And he was one of the

00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:36.519
guys that was always in Purple. Yeah, yeah. And

00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:39.619
it was John Lord until he passed away. No, that's

00:24:39.619 --> 00:24:42.000
true. All the rest of them came and left. Those

00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:44.900
two were always in the band. Interesting. The

00:24:44.900 --> 00:24:47.579
Ramones, Joey Ramones, suffered from a debilitating

00:24:47.579 --> 00:24:50.759
OCD, which led to extreme behaviors like a compulsive

00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:54.380
need to drive back to the airport to ensure he

00:24:54.380 --> 00:24:57.720
performed a specific task correctly after returning

00:24:57.720 --> 00:25:01.799
to a tour, from a tour. Wow. Yeah, so he would

00:25:01.799 --> 00:25:04.640
get all the way back, and then he'd go, did I

00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:10.299
close the door at that airport? That can be crippling.

00:25:10.299 --> 00:25:13.740
It really can. Sounds to me like... Yes, that

00:25:13.740 --> 00:25:17.079
was it. I've got a few more here on another page.

00:25:18.339 --> 00:25:20.460
Queen's Freddie Mercury once called his manager

00:25:20.460 --> 00:25:22.539
in distress because he was trying to record with

00:25:22.539 --> 00:25:24.839
Michael Jackson, who had brought his pet llama,

00:25:24.900 --> 00:25:28.539
Louie, to the studio. And I knew that. I knew

00:25:28.539 --> 00:25:33.640
that. I knew that for a long time. Michael Jackson

00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:35.799
was one of those guys that was so rich, nobody

00:25:35.799 --> 00:25:37.859
would tell him no. Yes, exactly. So he did all

00:25:37.859 --> 00:25:40.230
sorts of bizarre, weird stuff. But the thing

00:25:40.230 --> 00:25:43.569
is, Freddie Mercury, he was the ultimate, ultimate,

00:25:43.750 --> 00:25:47.609
consummate professional. Yeah. A perfectionist.

00:25:47.710 --> 00:25:49.630
You bring a llama into the studio, it's not going

00:25:49.630 --> 00:25:52.849
to fly with him. The music is what matters, not

00:25:52.849 --> 00:25:55.650
this animal. Get this animal out of here. Why

00:25:55.650 --> 00:25:57.630
would you bring someone into this? We need to

00:25:57.630 --> 00:26:00.029
record. We need to record this perfectly. Was

00:26:00.029 --> 00:26:04.049
the llama named Tina? Probably. Tina, eat the

00:26:04.049 --> 00:26:12.539
food. Google it. Judas Priest album British Still

00:26:12.539 --> 00:26:15.359
was recorded in a former home of Ringo Starr.

00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:17.960
The sound of marching feet and metal gods was

00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:23.079
created by using a tray of cutlery from Starr's

00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:26.799
kitchen. The marching, yes. Funny. That cracks

00:26:26.799 --> 00:26:30.660
me up. Oh, gosh. Now when I hear that, I imagine

00:26:30.660 --> 00:26:33.279
utensils, but at the time I was like, wow, that's

00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:37.930
a cool sound. Yeah. Rage Against the Machine.

00:26:38.549 --> 00:26:41.750
Tom Morello's mother, Mary Morello, was a schoolteacher

00:26:41.750 --> 00:26:44.829
who was also the homeroom teacher for Tools,

00:26:45.049 --> 00:26:48.289
Adam Jones. Oh, wow. The two were even in a high

00:26:48.289 --> 00:26:51.630
school band together called Electric Sheep. I

00:26:51.630 --> 00:26:54.950
would have never known that. No. It doesn't seem

00:26:54.950 --> 00:26:59.369
like Tom Morello and Adam Jones would be in the

00:26:59.369 --> 00:27:01.869
same classes because doesn't it seem like Rage

00:27:01.869 --> 00:27:04.430
was out way before? Yeah, it doesn't seem like

00:27:04.430 --> 00:27:06.819
the ages would line up. Yeah, I guess they do.

00:27:08.299 --> 00:27:10.680
But there are some high schools where it's not

00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:14.480
grade -specific. You can have juniors in with

00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:16.400
seniors. Yeah, that's true. It is probably a

00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:21.960
deal like that. And also, Tom Morello, him and

00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:28.980
Kim Thall were two of the most underrated guitarists

00:27:28.980 --> 00:27:31.039
ever, I think. I think they really helped define

00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:34.700
the sound of a lot of people. Yes. It's not so

00:27:34.700 --> 00:27:37.220
much that the general public is aware of them

00:27:37.220 --> 00:27:39.079
and their influence, but other guitar players

00:27:39.079 --> 00:27:39.880
are heavily influenced by them. Other guitar

00:27:39.880 --> 00:27:42.759
players always mention them. Yeah. It's just

00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:45.400
like Richie Blackmore. Well, Blackmore gets credit

00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:48.259
because of his songwriting, not like Virtuoso.

00:27:48.339 --> 00:27:50.779
I mean, he was very good, obviously. Yeah. But

00:27:50.779 --> 00:27:55.279
every guitarist after that, for years, even today,

00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:59.640
you know, who's your main influence? Always Richie

00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:03.539
Blackmore, Tony Iommi. Yeah. Two of the non -fancier

00:28:03.539 --> 00:28:06.559
guys, but knew how to write a song. Yeah, yeah.

00:28:07.420 --> 00:28:10.900
There are movies like that, too. You would never

00:28:10.900 --> 00:28:13.799
have any of the Matrix movies without the movie

00:28:13.799 --> 00:28:18.140
Dark City first. Because Dark City really inspired

00:28:18.140 --> 00:28:22.099
the Wachowski siblings. At the time, they were

00:28:22.099 --> 00:28:25.039
brothers, now they're sisters. In fact, they

00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:27.759
used some of the same sets from Dark City. Well,

00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:29.720
that's a good point. I never even thought about

00:28:29.720 --> 00:28:33.140
that. The rooftop sets. Yeah. Yeah. We'll have

00:28:33.140 --> 00:28:35.420
to revisit that. There was a big battle at the

00:28:35.420 --> 00:28:38.119
end where a creature got thrown through a water

00:28:38.119 --> 00:28:42.720
tower, just like in The Matrix. That big fight

00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:45.740
in the rain between Agent Smith and Neo. I mean,

00:28:45.740 --> 00:28:48.180
there's a lot of it. If you're familiar with

00:28:48.180 --> 00:28:50.460
The Matrix, especially the first Matrix movie,

00:28:50.660 --> 00:28:52.940
and then go watch Dark City, you're like, wow,

00:28:53.339 --> 00:28:57.880
I can see where they got it. Wow, okay. I never

00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:00.750
even thought about that ever. Yeah. Okay, that

00:29:00.750 --> 00:29:02.690
makes a lot of sense. Then there are a lot of

00:29:02.690 --> 00:29:04.450
movies out there like that that we haven't necessarily

00:29:04.450 --> 00:29:07.230
seen, but a lot of really good movie directors

00:29:07.230 --> 00:29:09.809
and writers. It's like, oh, yeah, without that

00:29:09.809 --> 00:29:12.329
movie, you wouldn't get this one. I agree. Yeah,

00:29:12.410 --> 00:29:15.089
you know what? Yep. It happens all the time,

00:29:15.089 --> 00:29:20.410
and wow. That makes a lot of sense. All right,

00:29:20.529 --> 00:29:22.849
the Marshall Tucker Band is named after a real

00:29:22.849 --> 00:29:28.029
person. A South Carolina piano tuner they found

00:29:28.029 --> 00:29:31.769
on a key chain. Not a band member. Oh, funny.

00:29:31.950 --> 00:29:35.509
On a keychain. Marshall Tucker. Yeah, it's got

00:29:35.509 --> 00:29:37.410
a good name. It's got a good sound to it. It

00:29:37.410 --> 00:29:40.269
does, yeah. That's why they decided to call the

00:29:40.269 --> 00:29:43.329
band that. It's like the band Jethro Tull. That

00:29:43.329 --> 00:29:47.349
was like some 18th century agriculture expert.

00:29:48.410 --> 00:29:50.309
Oh, yeah. And they just liked the name. It's

00:29:50.309 --> 00:29:52.230
like, yeah, let's just name ourselves that. Everybody

00:29:52.230 --> 00:29:55.230
thinks Ian Anderson is Jethro Tull. No. I mean,

00:29:55.309 --> 00:29:58.309
property -wise and everything, probably, yeah.

00:29:59.200 --> 00:30:01.960
No, but it's not him. He's not Jethro Tull. The

00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:05.500
real Jethro Tull lived about 270 years ago. Yeah.

00:30:06.279 --> 00:30:10.880
That's a long time ago. It is. No, that is funny.

00:30:11.019 --> 00:30:13.380
And to think they're still touring is insane.

00:30:13.460 --> 00:30:16.279
I know. Yeah. Of course, Ian Anderson is pretty

00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:19.279
much the only guy. Yeah, he's a, yeah. But it's

00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:21.559
funny because everyone always has him like this

00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:24.859
dancing one leg, one leg up in the air all the

00:30:24.859 --> 00:30:26.839
way up, you know, all the way up to his knee

00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:31.380
while he's playing the bass. No, he barely lifted

00:30:31.380 --> 00:30:35.579
his leg up and he did it sparsely, but he gets

00:30:35.579 --> 00:30:38.160
this reputation for being this Pied Piper looking

00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:41.079
guy. Yeah, Flamingo. Yeah, Flamingo. But he never

00:30:41.079 --> 00:30:43.220
really does that. He just lifts his leg up every

00:30:43.220 --> 00:30:45.420
once in a while. And I was like, oh, he's a guy

00:30:45.420 --> 00:30:47.660
that dances around on one leg, the Flamingo.

00:30:47.660 --> 00:30:50.019
No, mostly he's just jumping around like he's

00:30:50.019 --> 00:30:53.950
got motion disorder. He just really is awkward

00:30:53.950 --> 00:30:57.430
on stage. He's weird looking. I remember I watched

00:30:57.430 --> 00:30:59.369
him one time. I'm like waiting for that, waiting,

00:30:59.450 --> 00:31:01.150
waiting. Okay, all right, I want to see this.

00:31:01.150 --> 00:31:06.069
I want to see this flamingo. That split second

00:31:06.069 --> 00:31:10.410
of him sticking his left leg up, that's it. That's

00:31:10.410 --> 00:31:13.950
his flamingo. Now, Robert Plant had a thing where

00:31:13.950 --> 00:31:16.569
he'd hold the mic. his left hand and then his

00:31:16.569 --> 00:31:19.230
right hand he'd have the the hand up by his face

00:31:19.230 --> 00:31:21.369
with the wrist bent all the way back and his

00:31:21.369 --> 00:31:24.349
fingers kind of up in the air and yeah there's

00:31:24.349 --> 00:31:27.069
tons of pictures of him doing that and yeah he

00:31:27.069 --> 00:31:29.089
does that a whole lot it's like every three or

00:31:29.089 --> 00:31:31.250
four seconds he's got his hand up there and flipping

00:31:31.250 --> 00:31:33.589
his hand back so it's like yeah he did that a

00:31:33.589 --> 00:31:37.289
lot so that really was a common thing for him

00:31:37.289 --> 00:31:41.079
but Ian Anderson is He got credit for it. Has

00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:42.940
anyone ever asked him, is that like something

00:31:42.940 --> 00:31:45.920
while he sings he needs to do? It's like... I

00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:49.680
have never heard. Expressive, like... And maybe

00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:51.480
he doesn't even think about it. I don't know,

00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:55.460
but when you said he was off key, my God, now

00:31:55.460 --> 00:31:59.099
that's all I can hear. Yeah. I mean, it melts

00:31:59.099 --> 00:32:01.240
out those, you know, big emotive screams. They

00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:05.259
sound great, but they are horrible musically.

00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:09.049
You're like, ugh. Dissonance. It's like a cat

00:32:09.049 --> 00:32:11.150
being skinned if you really want to get down

00:32:11.150 --> 00:32:14.450
to it. But during the 70s and all of that stuff

00:32:14.450 --> 00:32:17.250
and everything, that's what fit the bill. You

00:32:17.250 --> 00:32:20.869
got a heroin addict, Aleister Crowley, loving

00:32:20.869 --> 00:32:24.990
fucking drummer, or not drummer, guitarist. You

00:32:24.990 --> 00:32:27.309
got an alcoholic drummer. And then you got the

00:32:27.309 --> 00:32:30.130
straight guy, John Paul Jones, you know. I believe

00:32:30.130 --> 00:32:32.910
he pretty much was. He was pretty much your average

00:32:32.910 --> 00:32:35.809
guy. Yeah, yeah. He wrote music very well, though.

00:32:35.829 --> 00:32:37.970
Yeah, he did. He was a hell of a guitarist and

00:32:37.970 --> 00:32:40.170
pianist, too, and keyboardist, but people wouldn't

00:32:40.170 --> 00:32:43.230
know that. Yeah. So, you ever see him play guitar?

00:32:43.769 --> 00:32:45.710
No, I haven't seen him on it. There's videos

00:32:45.710 --> 00:32:48.369
of it. He's really good. So is Robert Plant.

00:32:48.630 --> 00:32:51.829
Yeah. Robert Plant, my God. How about Big Lock?

00:32:52.569 --> 00:32:55.009
Yeah. I mean, the song's nothing fancy, but the

00:32:55.009 --> 00:32:57.369
songwriting on that is just insane. Yeah. So

00:32:57.369 --> 00:33:00.869
good. So, I have bullet points, but you have

00:33:00.869 --> 00:33:02.990
some stuff you want to go into? Let's see. What's

00:33:02.990 --> 00:33:07.819
the one I got next? I've been seeing articles,

00:33:07.980 --> 00:33:11.160
and I mention this to you, people saying that

00:33:11.160 --> 00:33:14.279
when Alex Van Halen came up with the eruption,

00:33:14.579 --> 00:33:18.980
great piece of music. However, it's not completely

00:33:18.980 --> 00:33:23.460
original. It was based very heavily on Ace Frehley's

00:33:23.460 --> 00:33:25.900
guitar solo in the live version of Shock Me.

00:33:26.240 --> 00:33:29.640
Yes. And I got on YouTube yesterday, and I listened.

00:33:29.779 --> 00:33:32.140
And you have to get the live version from Kiss

00:33:32.140 --> 00:33:35.059
Alive 2. Yes. And go about four minutes and eight

00:33:35.059 --> 00:33:38.460
seconds in, and the solo starts. And holy cow.

00:33:39.799 --> 00:33:42.220
I mean, it's not note for note, but structure

00:33:42.220 --> 00:33:45.299
-wise. Structure -wise, and also the tapping.

00:33:45.779 --> 00:33:48.700
The tapping. He'd done pick tapping, not finger

00:33:48.700 --> 00:33:50.920
tapping. Yeah. Which is harder, I think. It's

00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:54.160
harder, yes. But a lot of people say that Ace

00:33:54.160 --> 00:33:57.200
really brought it to electric. Because finger

00:33:57.200 --> 00:34:00.200
tapping has been going on for hundreds of years.

00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:03.640
Yeah, hammer on, pull off. Even medieval music

00:34:03.640 --> 00:34:06.180
featured some. Yeah, absolutely. But most famously,

00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:09.159
bluegrass. Bluegrass is all finger tapping, and

00:34:09.159 --> 00:34:12.739
my gosh. You have to be a musician of musicians

00:34:12.739 --> 00:34:15.960
to play that. Yeah. Yeah, that's so fast and

00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:19.119
precise. But Ace Frehley, the whole structure

00:34:19.119 --> 00:34:22.059
and everything was, yeah, I agree. I've always

00:34:22.059 --> 00:34:24.320
thought that, and I didn't know it was a thing

00:34:24.320 --> 00:34:27.090
now. Yeah, I've been seeing, you know, of course,

00:34:27.110 --> 00:34:29.190
since I responded to the first article and read

00:34:29.190 --> 00:34:31.090
it, you know, now my newsfeed is giving me five

00:34:31.090 --> 00:34:33.090
or six more because they want me to click on

00:34:33.090 --> 00:34:36.570
it. Well, Ace was so influential on so many guitarists

00:34:36.570 --> 00:34:39.110
in the 80s. Yeah, that's another good example

00:34:39.110 --> 00:34:41.849
of you don't know, but he was the influence.

00:34:42.110 --> 00:34:43.989
There's a lot of music you would never hear if

00:34:43.989 --> 00:34:47.150
it wasn't for Ace. Oh, I agree, yes. Yeah. Ace

00:34:47.150 --> 00:34:48.949
has always been one of my guitarists, not for

00:34:48.949 --> 00:34:51.889
preciseness, but feeling. Yeah. His note bending,

00:34:52.150 --> 00:34:58.070
everything meant something. Yeah. He had so much

00:34:58.070 --> 00:35:02.449
feeling in his music. And that was something

00:35:02.449 --> 00:35:05.170
that Kiss could never regain after he left. Yeah.

00:35:05.369 --> 00:35:08.369
They never had it again. I mean, that magic was

00:35:08.369 --> 00:35:11.730
gone. So, I mean, they could get by Peter Criss

00:35:11.730 --> 00:35:14.269
because I actually, I like Eric Carr better,

00:35:14.349 --> 00:35:17.630
my personal opinion. I do too, yeah. But Peter

00:35:17.630 --> 00:35:20.510
Criss was fine. Yeah. And he was a great songwriter,

00:35:20.530 --> 00:35:23.679
obviously. Yeah. His voice is very unique. But

00:35:23.679 --> 00:35:25.719
I like Derek Carr better because he's more of

00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:28.300
a straightforward, heavier hammer guy, you know.

00:35:28.460 --> 00:35:30.980
That allowed him to do Creatures of the Night,

00:35:31.059 --> 00:35:33.699
which could be, might be one of my favorite Chris

00:35:33.699 --> 00:35:36.659
Kiss albums. That album was so underrated, but

00:35:36.659 --> 00:35:40.400
it was the time it came out. Yeah. So, and also

00:35:40.400 --> 00:35:43.920
it came out after The Elder. Yeah. And Unmasked

00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:45.980
and all that. I mean, it came out from like Fluff

00:35:45.980 --> 00:35:50.010
and... soundtrack music to this heavy, dark,

00:35:50.030 --> 00:35:52.530
brooding stuff. Well, after The Elder, anything

00:35:52.530 --> 00:35:54.710
would be an improvement. Anything's an improvement.

00:35:56.150 --> 00:35:58.730
Now, if you want to call it another band, that

00:35:58.730 --> 00:36:03.369
album's good. But if you call it Kiss, no. Let

00:36:03.369 --> 00:36:07.429
me ask you a question. On a video I watched the

00:36:07.429 --> 00:36:10.130
other day, it was another one of those AI fantasies

00:36:10.130 --> 00:36:13.909
where it was written by AI and read by AI. But

00:36:13.909 --> 00:36:17.409
they were talking about... underappreciated musicians

00:36:17.409 --> 00:36:19.610
and they were talking about Geezer Butler and

00:36:19.610 --> 00:36:23.750
they credited him with writing the lyrics to

00:36:23.750 --> 00:36:26.630
like Iron Man and various other things. Until

00:36:26.630 --> 00:36:29.110
Ronnie James Dio came into being. I'd always

00:36:29.110 --> 00:36:34.309
been told that Ozzy wrote Iron Man. I don't think

00:36:34.309 --> 00:36:36.989
that's true. Yeah. So whoever told me that was

00:36:36.989 --> 00:36:40.130
totally wrong. Ozzy was the melody guy. Yeah.

00:36:40.170 --> 00:36:43.849
He would do the melodies and Geezer always said

00:36:43.849 --> 00:36:46.500
this. And so did Bill Ward. Tony, I don't know,

00:36:46.579 --> 00:36:51.599
he may have. But, okay, they said that Ozzy had

00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:55.260
always been underappreciated as a musician because

00:36:55.260 --> 00:36:57.760
he may not have been able to, he could play the

00:36:57.760 --> 00:37:00.260
harmonica and that's it. Yeah. Okay, the harmonica,

00:37:00.340 --> 00:37:03.539
he was good at. But his melodies, he would come

00:37:03.539 --> 00:37:05.820
up with the melodies, and that was his songwriting,

00:37:05.940 --> 00:37:08.519
not the lyrics. Yeah. But Geezer Butler was the

00:37:08.519 --> 00:37:11.800
one that came up with the lyrics. And so, until

00:37:11.800 --> 00:37:14.949
Ronnie James Dio. joined the band, and Dio loved

00:37:14.949 --> 00:37:17.190
that thought, or Geezer loved that thought. He

00:37:17.190 --> 00:37:19.630
got tired of writing lyrics, and Dio came in,

00:37:19.670 --> 00:37:21.530
and that's how come you had the darker songs

00:37:21.530 --> 00:37:25.190
with Dio, because Dio came in with the druidism

00:37:25.190 --> 00:37:26.989
and all that, you know. Yeah, all that interesting

00:37:26.989 --> 00:37:29.250
stuff. Yeah, yeah, and the maloik, you know,

00:37:29.250 --> 00:37:31.150
going around everywhere, fucking giving everybody

00:37:31.150 --> 00:37:33.630
the horns and all that. I remember my brother

00:37:33.630 --> 00:37:36.510
telling me that he went to the Black and Blue,

00:37:36.670 --> 00:37:40.269
Blue Oyster Cult, Black Sabbath, and he said

00:37:40.269 --> 00:37:42.900
that it scared the hell out of him because in

00:37:42.900 --> 00:37:46.199
the middle of the concert it felt like he attended

00:37:46.199 --> 00:37:49.500
a black mass oh because ronnie james dio was

00:37:49.500 --> 00:37:52.519
in for that shock devilish stuff yeah i don't

00:37:52.519 --> 00:37:54.340
think he was really into it but if he was then

00:37:54.340 --> 00:37:58.099
okay whatever but he was like you know um it's

00:37:58.099 --> 00:37:59.579
in the middle of heaven and hell they go and

00:37:59.579 --> 00:38:01.900
a little white shake come down on me and he said

00:38:01.900 --> 00:38:04.480
i'm where you ought to be and he said come with

00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:07.860
me and i'll show you what to do But then a big

00:38:07.860 --> 00:38:10.139
dark force came after me, and he said, I'm going

00:38:10.139 --> 00:38:12.400
to tell you where you ought to be. And then he

00:38:12.400 --> 00:38:15.460
said something like, he goes, I'm going to burn

00:38:15.460 --> 00:38:18.280
in hell with all of you. And then he points at

00:38:18.280 --> 00:38:20.880
the crowd, and the crowd goes nuts. And my brother's

00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:22.039
sitting there looking around, and he's going,

00:38:22.199 --> 00:38:25.239
what the fuck? Everybody wants to burn in hell?

00:38:25.500 --> 00:38:28.360
And all they're doing is following the guy. To

00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:32.039
me, that, listen, I mean, you can believe whatever

00:38:32.039 --> 00:38:34.360
you want, but to me, believing in the devil is

00:38:34.360 --> 00:38:37.309
an idiocy. Because he is just the counter of

00:38:37.309 --> 00:38:43.610
God. And why would you want to open a door to

00:38:43.610 --> 00:38:45.630
something like that? Even if you really don't

00:38:45.630 --> 00:38:47.670
think it's real, why take the chance of opening

00:38:47.670 --> 00:38:50.050
a door and inviting it in? I'm certain he answered

00:38:50.050 --> 00:38:57.730
to it in 2010. But, no, he was more the dark

00:38:57.730 --> 00:39:00.349
guy. He was the guy that always sang about the

00:39:00.349 --> 00:39:04.780
devil and stuff. Gieser Butler would point towards

00:39:04.780 --> 00:39:08.260
it but not get in it. Gieser Butler would also

00:39:08.260 --> 00:39:11.880
find the absurdity in life. Like Iron Man was

00:39:11.880 --> 00:39:15.300
actually written about Jesus Christ. He killed

00:39:15.300 --> 00:39:17.360
the people he once saved and all this stuff.

00:39:17.539 --> 00:39:20.039
I mean, Christ didn't kill. What they're talking

00:39:20.039 --> 00:39:23.739
about is being crucified. It's an adaptation.

00:39:24.960 --> 00:39:27.420
Gieser Butler said it's a song about Jesus Christ,

00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:30.539
only it doesn't mention Jesus Christ. That guy

00:39:30.539 --> 00:39:37.880
would be Iron Man. you know so um anyhow uh yeah

00:39:37.880 --> 00:39:40.880
everything came all of this stuff came from ace

00:39:40.880 --> 00:39:45.099
he isn't the only he isn't the only influence

00:39:45.099 --> 00:39:47.780
yeah hendrix had a lot to do with a lot of other

00:39:47.780 --> 00:39:50.579
ones had a lot to do with but ace on that flashy

00:39:50.579 --> 00:39:53.559
stuff and also jk lee this would be the ultimate

00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:57.719
sin live it was recorded at kemper arena kansas

00:39:57.719 --> 00:40:00.039
city i was there yeah but his solo was highly

00:40:00.039 --> 00:40:03.190
based on that too And I think both of them were

00:40:03.190 --> 00:40:06.170
not meant to be. Both of them were highly influenced,

00:40:06.349 --> 00:40:09.510
like me. I mean, when I was into Ace, that's

00:40:09.510 --> 00:40:14.389
all I wanted to listen to. The guy had so much

00:40:14.389 --> 00:40:17.010
feeling, and it sucks that he passed away. And

00:40:17.010 --> 00:40:18.849
one of the things that really sucks is this right

00:40:18.849 --> 00:40:22.750
here. He survived the first fall. He was fine.

00:40:23.349 --> 00:40:25.590
He went back in the studio, tripped in the same

00:40:25.590 --> 00:40:31.179
place, and that time, brain bleed got him. He

00:40:31.179 --> 00:40:33.360
had the first warning, and then it happened again.

00:40:33.699 --> 00:40:35.760
But it also makes you wonder if there's something

00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:39.139
neurological going on, too. Yeah. You know, two

00:40:39.139 --> 00:40:40.780
in a row like that, and the second one comes

00:40:40.780 --> 00:40:43.960
in. Yeah, if you're feeling clumsy or whatever.

00:40:43.980 --> 00:40:46.380
He was an alcoholic, been a bad wreck, all this

00:40:46.380 --> 00:40:50.139
stuff. He had a lot, you know. Well, I know from

00:40:50.139 --> 00:40:55.420
experience that... Job opening. A lifetime of...

00:40:55.420 --> 00:40:58.039
Oh, that's Ace's ghost. Shut up. A lifetime of

00:40:58.039 --> 00:41:00.659
alcohol abuse. Oh, shattered mirror. There you

00:41:00.659 --> 00:41:03.099
go. Shattered mirror. Oh, yeah. Connect the dots,

00:41:03.219 --> 00:41:05.500
guys. Connect the dots. Fractured mirror, not

00:41:05.500 --> 00:41:08.579
shattered. No, but a lifetime of alcohol abuse

00:41:08.579 --> 00:41:11.039
makes the blood vessels in your brain very weak

00:41:11.039 --> 00:41:14.940
and fragile. And I have a grandfather who fell

00:41:14.940 --> 00:41:18.440
and hit his head. And a normal person would have

00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:21.599
said, ow, and got back up. But since his brain

00:41:21.599 --> 00:41:24.780
was so weakened by alcohol, blood vessels burst.

00:41:25.559 --> 00:41:30.500
and he had a brain bleed and died. And that is

00:41:30.500 --> 00:41:34.159
probably a big part of why that fall took him

00:41:34.159 --> 00:41:39.400
out. Oh, yeah, yeah. That makes an optimal amount

00:41:39.400 --> 00:41:44.199
of sense. Yeah, I don't think so. Yeah. Okay,

00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:47.280
me and Rob got into this, and I always wanted

00:41:47.280 --> 00:41:52.280
to ask you this. Whenever someone dies, okay,

00:41:52.340 --> 00:41:55.110
right before that, They've always been bickering

00:41:55.110 --> 00:41:57.590
with him. And some of it got pretty personal.

00:41:57.869 --> 00:41:59.730
Yeah. You know, like Paul saying that he's an

00:41:59.730 --> 00:42:02.329
anti -Semite and looked at them as like money

00:42:02.329 --> 00:42:04.050
-grubbing Jews and all that. That was uncalled

00:42:04.050 --> 00:42:06.769
for. Yeah. Okay. There was a lot of dirty shit

00:42:06.769 --> 00:42:08.429
said between the two, but when he died, they

00:42:08.429 --> 00:42:10.449
left. Oh, he was a brother. Yeah. I don't believe

00:42:10.449 --> 00:42:13.909
any of that, do you? No. Bullshit. No. No. It

00:42:13.909 --> 00:42:16.550
serves their purpose to say it now. Yes. And

00:42:16.550 --> 00:42:19.570
if I would, I would respect this more. You don't

00:42:19.570 --> 00:42:21.739
dog them. What you do is go, well, we had our

00:42:21.739 --> 00:42:24.960
differences, but I'm sad. Exactly. Yes. Exactly.

00:42:25.119 --> 00:42:28.880
But the fashion now is to suddenly pretend as

00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:30.760
if you always loved each other. Gene Simmons

00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:33.179
coming out fucking sobbing does nothing for me.

00:42:33.239 --> 00:42:36.159
He's been an actor his whole life. Yes. Why would

00:42:36.159 --> 00:42:39.860
he change now? Bullshit. If he was still alive,

00:42:39.920 --> 00:42:41.780
they'd still be quarreling, making fun of each

00:42:41.780 --> 00:42:43.980
other, saying shit. No, that's the way it is.

00:42:44.429 --> 00:42:46.530
And, no, it pisses me off that they think that,

00:42:46.570 --> 00:42:48.670
well, probably most people are that gullible

00:42:48.670 --> 00:42:50.369
and go, see, they really did love each other.

00:42:50.389 --> 00:42:52.489
No. I don't believe that for one minute. No.

00:42:52.570 --> 00:42:55.670
They want your money. No. It's what you say when

00:42:55.670 --> 00:42:58.510
someone passes away. How dare you just tell the

00:42:58.510 --> 00:43:00.789
truth and go, well, we had our differences, and

00:43:00.789 --> 00:43:03.190
I can't say I was a huge fan of some of the stuff,

00:43:03.289 --> 00:43:06.750
but, you know, I'm sad and feel bad for his family.

00:43:06.789 --> 00:43:10.670
God rest his soul, that good stuff. Yeah. All

00:43:10.670 --> 00:43:14.559
right. But, no, I agree with you 100 ,000%, but

00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:16.860
the funny thing is, before this came up, I've

00:43:16.860 --> 00:43:19.980
always thought that. That a lot of this stuff

00:43:19.980 --> 00:43:22.440
was taken from Ace. A lot of it. Especially the

00:43:22.440 --> 00:43:25.760
newer solos. Not now, but the solos in the 80s

00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:28.059
were all tempered around Ace. Yeah. Hello, this

00:43:28.059 --> 00:43:32.059
is Phineas J. Altaris III. I'm here to deliver

00:43:32.059 --> 00:43:41.739
your music news this evening. Hold the line.

00:43:42.780 --> 00:43:46.699
Toto's U .S. tour is coming together just fine.

00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:50.019
I didn't write that. Legendary rock band Toto

00:43:50.019 --> 00:43:52.179
will be touring as an evening with Steve Lukather

00:43:52.179 --> 00:43:54.820
and Joseph Williams. They have curated a set

00:43:54.820 --> 00:43:58.320
list for this entire excursion. February 18th,

00:43:58.320 --> 00:44:00.400
the tour kicks off in Milwaukee and will wrap

00:44:00.400 --> 00:44:02.920
up in Buffalo, Michigan. Our home base of Kansas

00:44:02.920 --> 00:44:05.280
City is getting snubbed, unless you feel like

00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:08.619
traveling to Tulsa, Omaha, or Des Moines. That's

00:44:08.619 --> 00:44:11.099
not very far to travel, so if you love Toto,

00:44:11.219 --> 00:44:15.539
there you go. This is Phineas J. Baltar S. III.

00:44:17.099 --> 00:44:19.500
That has been your music news for this evening.

00:44:20.199 --> 00:44:23.780
I have one burning question for you all. Do people

00:44:23.780 --> 00:44:28.980
really skip around the Maypole? The bridge, the

00:44:28.980 --> 00:44:31.980
structure, everything. The note bending. the

00:44:31.980 --> 00:44:34.619
note bending was stolen from him or at least

00:44:34.619 --> 00:44:37.400
borrowed so many times especially the more musical

00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:40.139
of the solos because i remember a lot of 80s

00:44:40.139 --> 00:44:43.000
bands would learn the flashy techniques of eddie

00:44:43.000 --> 00:44:46.780
but no and then just throw them in there as you

00:44:46.780 --> 00:44:49.940
know well it's a rock song so you have to have

00:44:49.940 --> 00:44:52.340
a certain amount of finger tapping dive bombing

00:44:52.340 --> 00:44:54.940
on your tremolo or whatever and it just got really

00:44:54.940 --> 00:44:57.219
boring people built their career on that yeah

00:44:57.219 --> 00:45:00.139
it was power chords in this flash in the middle

00:45:00.139 --> 00:45:03.139
yeah Yeah, and the power chords, that was 70s

00:45:03.139 --> 00:45:05.820
arena rock, lots of power chords. And then in

00:45:05.820 --> 00:45:07.860
the 80s, it was like, well, keep using that,

00:45:07.980 --> 00:45:10.000
but then we'll throw in all the finger tapping

00:45:10.000 --> 00:45:12.199
and the Floyd Rose and all that stuff. The Floyd

00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:14.920
Rose, yeah. So much of it was just boring and

00:45:14.920 --> 00:45:18.280
meaningless. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, you're

00:45:18.280 --> 00:45:22.579
right, and that goes to one of my bullet points,

00:45:22.780 --> 00:45:24.380
and we'll get to it later, but I'll tell you

00:45:24.380 --> 00:45:26.639
what it is. Have glam bands been snubbed from

00:45:26.639 --> 00:45:28.559
the hall? And that's one of the reasons. But

00:45:28.559 --> 00:45:30.400
we'll go to that later. Go ahead. You've got

00:45:30.400 --> 00:45:31.599
something you're going into. As long as we're

00:45:31.599 --> 00:45:35.179
talking about KISS, I looked it up again this

00:45:35.179 --> 00:45:37.159
morning. Knights in Satanic Service? Yeah. Or

00:45:37.159 --> 00:45:41.300
it could be Knights in Saint Service. Oh, it's

00:45:41.300 --> 00:45:43.760
that. You're right. Yeah, they were highly Christian.

00:45:45.260 --> 00:45:48.880
Even the two Jews? Yes. Okay. Wait, Bob Dylan

00:45:48.880 --> 00:45:51.219
was a Jew and a Christian? You know what? It's

00:45:51.219 --> 00:45:53.099
possible. I stand corrected. Yeah, sometimes

00:45:53.099 --> 00:45:56.199
the yarmulke falls off. Yes, it does. The blood

00:45:56.199 --> 00:45:59.179
doesn't, but the yarmulke does. Okay, I checked

00:45:59.179 --> 00:46:03.599
this again this morning. Kiss sold everything

00:46:03.599 --> 00:46:06.519
to the Pop House Entertainment Group of Sweden,

00:46:06.699 --> 00:46:10.159
PEG, for $300 million. They sold the music, the

00:46:10.159 --> 00:46:13.420
master recordings, the publishing rights, the

00:46:13.420 --> 00:46:16.960
name, the likenesses, everything. Which surprised

00:46:16.960 --> 00:46:21.079
me, by the way. Yeah, it did. But what surprises

00:46:21.079 --> 00:46:24.480
me even more is to read an article yesterday

00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:30.219
or the day before saying Paul and Gene are together

00:46:30.219 --> 00:46:34.119
writing new songs for Kiss to be used in the

00:46:34.119 --> 00:46:37.119
Avatar show. Okay. Because that's another thing

00:46:37.119 --> 00:46:39.300
that Pop House Entertainment is going to do is

00:46:39.300 --> 00:46:41.699
create the digital avatars and have the digital

00:46:41.699 --> 00:46:46.550
show. The agreement was not released. The agreement

00:46:46.550 --> 00:46:49.449
is completely different than the surface of sold

00:46:49.449 --> 00:46:52.150
everything to. Okay. In there are provisions.

00:46:52.550 --> 00:46:55.210
Okay. And if they come up with their own material

00:46:55.210 --> 00:46:58.110
and stuff, it's a percentage. Okay. That makes

00:46:58.110 --> 00:47:00.389
more sense. Either that or they're getting paid

00:47:00.389 --> 00:47:03.309
directly from these guys. Yeah, because otherwise

00:47:03.309 --> 00:47:06.070
they're just making money for PEG, not themselves.

00:47:06.070 --> 00:47:09.130
No, there's language in there. I guarantee it

00:47:09.130 --> 00:47:11.599
that that's what it is. And they knew this all

00:47:11.599 --> 00:47:13.739
along. They're like, look, this is part of their

00:47:13.739 --> 00:47:16.900
overall plan of their quote -unquote retirement.

00:47:17.699 --> 00:47:20.500
But another weird thing is they recently performed

00:47:20.500 --> 00:47:24.139
two shows in Vegas as Kiss. Yes, but no makeup.

00:47:24.139 --> 00:47:26.760
But they don't own the name Kiss. They're not

00:47:26.760 --> 00:47:29.179
legally allowed to perform under the name Kiss

00:47:29.179 --> 00:47:32.380
unless Pop House Entertainment okays it. They

00:47:32.380 --> 00:47:34.639
probably okayed it for money, but I think there's

00:47:34.639 --> 00:47:36.679
also something with no makeup. If they would

00:47:36.679 --> 00:47:38.059
have wore the makeup, I think they would have

00:47:38.059 --> 00:47:42.019
owed them like 80 or 90%. Yeah. But I think because

00:47:42.019 --> 00:47:44.619
they didn't have the full stage show and the

00:47:44.619 --> 00:47:47.260
makeup that's now, you know, property of someone

00:47:47.260 --> 00:47:50.780
else, then they were probably, they skirted it

00:47:50.780 --> 00:47:53.039
and maybe had to give a little, but not like

00:47:53.039 --> 00:47:54.480
they would have had if they would have came out

00:47:54.480 --> 00:47:57.119
full on kiss. Yeah. And also Bruce Kulik was

00:47:57.119 --> 00:48:00.000
there, which was interesting. It makes it sound

00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:02.420
like they intentionally misled us to say, oh,

00:48:02.440 --> 00:48:04.159
this is it, Kiss is done, we're never going to

00:48:04.159 --> 00:48:06.900
be Kiss again. They did. But they knew they were

00:48:06.900 --> 00:48:10.300
going to. My opinion is they did that all the

00:48:10.300 --> 00:48:12.880
time. Yeah. Starting with their first retirement

00:48:12.880 --> 00:48:17.780
tour. Yeah. At least Ozzy really did think he

00:48:17.780 --> 00:48:19.739
was retiring. He thought he was dying. Yeah.

00:48:19.739 --> 00:48:23.360
He did. And after that, to his credit, he didn't

00:48:23.360 --> 00:48:25.840
do any more No More Tours after that. Yeah. He

00:48:25.840 --> 00:48:29.519
did tours, but they weren't No More. Yeah. I'm

00:48:29.519 --> 00:48:31.360
going to quit claiming it's the last one. Until

00:48:31.360 --> 00:48:34.780
the one he didn't get to finish. All right, you

00:48:34.780 --> 00:48:37.739
got something? The recent Springsteen movie that

00:48:37.739 --> 00:48:41.199
came out, Deliver Me From Nowhere. Looks interesting.

00:48:42.019 --> 00:48:44.320
And I'm not a huge fan. No, I'm not a real big

00:48:44.320 --> 00:48:46.639
Springsteen fan either. But the weird thing is,

00:48:46.780 --> 00:48:50.920
the movie is based on Springsteen's life about

00:48:50.920 --> 00:48:53.559
the time he recorded and released the album Nebraska,

00:48:53.940 --> 00:48:58.000
which was his sixth album. That one? Yeah. The

00:48:58.000 --> 00:49:00.260
one he mostly records sitting in his living room

00:49:00.260 --> 00:49:03.739
with a portable recorder. Why? Just him and a

00:49:03.739 --> 00:49:06.860
guitar. Why that one? I have no idea. So you

00:49:06.860 --> 00:49:10.239
get none of Bruce Springsteen, you know, growing

00:49:10.239 --> 00:49:12.519
and learning and trying to break. None of that.

00:49:12.599 --> 00:49:14.780
None of the young Bruce Springsteen or the E

00:49:14.780 --> 00:49:18.659
Street Band doing all the shows. No, it's six

00:49:18.659 --> 00:49:22.900
albums in for one of his more somber and kind

00:49:22.900 --> 00:49:28.320
of sedate and depressing albums. I don't understand.

00:49:28.320 --> 00:49:30.599
That's what the movie's about. I don't understand

00:49:30.599 --> 00:49:33.219
what the whole point of the movie is. I don't

00:49:33.219 --> 00:49:35.059
either, and a lot of critics are stretching their

00:49:35.059 --> 00:49:37.599
heads. It's like, out of all the parts of Bruce

00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:40.500
Springsteen's life and career, you picked one

00:49:40.500 --> 00:49:43.159
of the most boring episodes in his life. I remember

00:49:43.159 --> 00:49:45.780
when the album came out and hearing tracks on

00:49:45.780 --> 00:49:48.199
it, and a lot of people were like, eh, this is

00:49:48.199 --> 00:49:50.079
just kind of boring and dull and depressing.

00:49:50.079 --> 00:49:52.460
We're used to Springsteen being fun and upbeat

00:49:52.460 --> 00:49:55.599
and lively and energetic, and this is just bleh.

00:49:56.679 --> 00:49:58.579
And that's what they chose to make the movie

00:49:58.579 --> 00:50:02.280
about. No wonder it didn't do anything. No, it's

00:50:02.280 --> 00:50:03.659
already gone from the theaters. I'm not going

00:50:03.659 --> 00:50:06.659
to see it. No, I have no interest in it. It just

00:50:06.659 --> 00:50:09.380
seemed like such a weird choice. Maybe that's

00:50:09.380 --> 00:50:11.039
the only one they could get the music rights

00:50:11.039 --> 00:50:15.039
to? I guess. Like I said, okay, I said it was

00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:17.039
interesting, but I didn't mean it in a good way.

00:50:17.199 --> 00:50:19.679
It's like, why did they do what they did? So,

00:50:19.679 --> 00:50:22.039
I don't know. But Bruce Springsteen is just over

00:50:22.039 --> 00:50:24.219
the moon about it. In fact, he's already talking

00:50:24.219 --> 00:50:26.460
about a sequel, and he said, for the next one,

00:50:26.599 --> 00:50:29.639
do it about this album, or, I mean, this album.

00:50:29.739 --> 00:50:34.019
I hope you're financing it. Woody Allen -looking

00:50:34.019 --> 00:50:36.820
motherfucker. Oh, God, yeah. I've never liked

00:50:36.820 --> 00:50:39.280
him. I always thought he was a fucking loudmouth

00:50:39.280 --> 00:50:42.900
pompous. piece of crap to me. Yeah. Well, it

00:50:42.900 --> 00:50:45.840
didn't help that from the beginning his marketing

00:50:45.840 --> 00:50:49.619
was aimed at getting the teenage girls to fall

00:50:49.619 --> 00:50:52.019
in love with his sexuality. Yeah, but that didn't

00:50:52.019 --> 00:50:54.079
work. Not really. And, of course, it totally

00:50:54.079 --> 00:50:57.340
didn't work on me. It was like, oh, so I'm now

00:50:57.340 --> 00:50:59.340
competing with this guy for the interest of teenage

00:50:59.340 --> 00:51:01.360
girls? Because I was a teenager at the time.

00:51:01.440 --> 00:51:04.260
Oh, yeah. Well, I think he probably had the sexuality

00:51:04.260 --> 00:51:07.659
of a brick. Yeah. From what I could tell. Yeah.

00:51:07.679 --> 00:51:10.380
When you listen to him talk, he's... Kind of

00:51:10.380 --> 00:51:13.559
boring. He was a really plain looking guy. He

00:51:13.559 --> 00:51:15.719
didn't dress flashy. He had a massive underbite.

00:51:15.860 --> 00:51:20.619
Yeah. Yeah, I'm pretty sure he does not stand

00:51:20.619 --> 00:51:23.380
out. Yeah. And that's one of the problems I always

00:51:23.380 --> 00:51:26.139
thought with him is he did good on the coast,

00:51:26.280 --> 00:51:29.039
but nowhere else really. Yeah. And that's just

00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:30.880
because I loved it. He used to be Jersey. Loved

00:51:30.880 --> 00:51:33.480
it. Yeah, oh yeah. Oh, hell yeah. But nah. Midwest

00:51:33.480 --> 00:51:37.000
more belonged to John Cougar Mellencamp. Yes.

00:51:37.179 --> 00:51:40.440
He's an Indiana boy. Indiana guy. Yeah. So he

00:51:40.440 --> 00:51:42.599
was more our speed. And he's a guy that became

00:51:42.599 --> 00:51:47.760
really, really old and bitchy. Very bitter. He

00:51:47.760 --> 00:51:50.300
let all the social causes pretty much take over

00:51:50.300 --> 00:51:53.300
his life. Yeah. So he just kind of gave up on

00:51:53.300 --> 00:51:55.400
music. Yeah, to where nobody cares anymore. Like,

00:51:55.480 --> 00:51:57.300
yeah, yeah, good music, but who gives a shit?

00:51:57.420 --> 00:52:02.219
It's not that good. Yeah, well. So Alice Cooper

00:52:02.219 --> 00:52:05.400
and Criss Angel doing shows together. They are.

00:52:06.300 --> 00:52:09.610
They're advertising a great big tour. They're

00:52:09.610 --> 00:52:12.010
adding dates. They're going to both be on the

00:52:12.010 --> 00:52:14.010
stage at the same time. It's going to be a combination

00:52:14.010 --> 00:52:17.550
of Alice Cooper live performance plus a Criss

00:52:17.550 --> 00:52:21.130
Angel magic show. Illusion show. He does illusions.

00:52:22.489 --> 00:52:25.789
And I've got to tell you, not interested at all.

00:52:25.949 --> 00:52:29.309
I have zero interest. Alice does just fine without

00:52:29.309 --> 00:52:31.760
Criss Angel. Yeah, I don't need him there. And

00:52:31.760 --> 00:52:35.360
this is aimed at rehabbing Chris Angel's career,

00:52:35.619 --> 00:52:38.099
I think. Probably. He needs a real leg up, and

00:52:38.099 --> 00:52:40.099
he probably said, look, Alice, I'll finance the

00:52:40.099 --> 00:52:43.619
entire tour, but my career needs a heart and

00:52:43.619 --> 00:52:46.739
lung transplant. Yeah. So please let me come

00:52:46.739 --> 00:52:49.079
out on stage with you so I can become cool again.

00:52:49.159 --> 00:52:51.019
I think that's basically what's going on here.

00:52:51.019 --> 00:52:55.340
You're right. And I love Alice Cooper. And I

00:52:55.340 --> 00:52:58.199
tell people this. Yeah, it's the same show. But

00:52:58.199 --> 00:53:00.559
I want to see it over. Yeah. I watch planes,

00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:02.900
trains, and automobiles every time I sit down

00:53:02.900 --> 00:53:04.860
during Thanksgiving. I can't get away from it.

00:53:04.940 --> 00:53:07.800
And his backup band is so incredibly good. Yes.

00:53:07.880 --> 00:53:09.780
You know, they're just all so good. Oh, my gosh.

00:53:09.780 --> 00:53:12.179
He has the best guitarist. And he always has

00:53:12.179 --> 00:53:14.400
a hot chick guitarist, which is smart. Yeah.

00:53:14.840 --> 00:53:19.139
Except for that. What is it? A cross dresser

00:53:19.139 --> 00:53:20.840
or whatever. Something like that that he had

00:53:20.840 --> 00:53:25.900
for a while. Oh, yeah. I'm sorry. I mean, that.

00:53:26.599 --> 00:53:32.860
That. Yeah, he was introduced as Jossie Guse

00:53:32.860 --> 00:53:36.079
or Gaius or something like that. Yeah, Gaius.

00:53:36.900 --> 00:53:38.960
Gaius, I think that was it. He was announced

00:53:38.960 --> 00:53:41.219
and brought out. Look, here he is. Here's the

00:53:41.219 --> 00:53:44.500
news guy. And then nothing. I think he maybe

00:53:44.500 --> 00:53:46.980
did one performance with him. Yeah, I think so.

00:53:47.000 --> 00:53:49.559
And then it's just gone. Yeah, so traditionally

00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:51.719
he hires hot women to go out there and play.

00:53:51.820 --> 00:53:56.500
Yeah. Nita Strauss. And the thing is, Oregonte,

00:53:56.639 --> 00:53:58.900
really talented. Nita Strauss is really talented

00:53:58.900 --> 00:54:01.320
too, but she doesn't warrant the kind of fame

00:54:01.320 --> 00:54:05.539
she gets. Yeah, she's not as creative. Every

00:54:05.539 --> 00:54:08.940
time she plays, it's like I've seen people play

00:54:08.940 --> 00:54:11.300
this exact kind of stuff a million times. There's

00:54:11.300 --> 00:54:14.679
nothing new here. Yeah, it's like John 5. You

00:54:14.679 --> 00:54:17.559
can practice, practice, practice, and get that

00:54:17.559 --> 00:54:19.880
precise, but you never have that feeling. That's

00:54:19.880 --> 00:54:22.539
her. He's like AI. Yeah, he is. Nothing new and

00:54:22.539 --> 00:54:24.320
original. I think he is AI. He's just vomiting

00:54:24.320 --> 00:54:26.739
out what he's absorbed. Look at him. He is AI.

00:54:26.780 --> 00:54:29.039
He is a creation of AI. He doesn't exist. He's

00:54:29.039 --> 00:54:31.420
like Max Hedren. Yeah, he is. The modern -day

00:54:31.420 --> 00:54:33.920
Max Hedren. And that goofy dress -looking thing

00:54:33.920 --> 00:54:36.659
that he wears. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I mean, if you're

00:54:36.659 --> 00:54:38.159
Scottish and you want to wear a kilt, that's

00:54:38.159 --> 00:54:40.960
cool. Yeah, but this is like a nightgown kilt.

00:54:41.099 --> 00:54:43.340
Yeah. Yeah, not right. Like, just trying too

00:54:43.340 --> 00:54:45.639
hard, dude. Yeah. Just trying too hard. Yeah,

00:54:45.659 --> 00:54:48.559
that's not right. They shouldn't, yeah. I think

00:54:48.559 --> 00:54:51.539
the Alice Cooper and Criss Angel shows are going

00:54:51.539 --> 00:54:53.860
to be a big success. I think he's going to make

00:54:53.860 --> 00:54:56.739
a ton of money. But it's nothing I'm interested

00:54:56.739 --> 00:55:01.199
in. I don't need to go out to a fine restaurant

00:55:01.199 --> 00:55:03.539
and eat and at the same time have a demolition

00:55:03.539 --> 00:55:06.340
derby going on nearby. It's just they don't fit.

00:55:06.460 --> 00:55:08.920
I don't want the two together. And I don't want

00:55:08.920 --> 00:55:11.199
a hard rock concert and an illusionist magic

00:55:11.199 --> 00:55:13.369
show at the same time. Yeah, that's true. And

00:55:13.369 --> 00:55:15.630
also, you know, some of this is for Alice, too.

00:55:15.769 --> 00:55:18.170
Yeah. Because Alice has toured and toured and

00:55:18.170 --> 00:55:20.449
toured, and like I said, it's the same show.

00:55:20.630 --> 00:55:22.969
I think people don't get that excitement anymore

00:55:22.969 --> 00:55:25.170
like they did because he comes by every year.

00:55:25.269 --> 00:55:28.789
The dude is 77 years old. He probably can't handle

00:55:28.789 --> 00:55:31.110
a two -hour show anymore. Yeah, so he's got to

00:55:31.110 --> 00:55:33.630
split it up. Yeah, it's like, hey, I get to get

00:55:33.630 --> 00:55:35.989
off stage for a half hour, 45 minutes while you

00:55:35.989 --> 00:55:38.050
do your stuff, and then I come back, you know,

00:55:38.110 --> 00:55:41.039
and this probably works out pretty good. Actually,

00:55:41.039 --> 00:55:43.019
probably after we discussed it, a good idea.

00:55:43.179 --> 00:55:45.780
Yeah. For them. Yeah, I mean, it works. It's

00:55:45.780 --> 00:55:47.280
a great business decision. I think it's going

00:55:47.280 --> 00:55:49.079
to make a ton of money. It's just I have zero

00:55:49.079 --> 00:55:51.719
interest in it. And also, Alice gets to do like

00:55:51.719 --> 00:55:53.719
a half hour, then leave, and then come back and

00:55:53.719 --> 00:55:55.199
do a little bit more, which she probably needs

00:55:55.199 --> 00:55:58.639
to do. Yeah. How about the idea of like if Ozzy

00:55:58.639 --> 00:56:00.619
was still alive and could like get around very

00:56:00.619 --> 00:56:06.519
well? Half hour, another band. Half hour, another

00:56:06.519 --> 00:56:08.960
band. Split it up with other good bands. Like

00:56:08.960 --> 00:56:11.300
them and GNR could have toured. Like Ozzy and

00:56:11.300 --> 00:56:13.679
GNR could have toured. I have no doubt that that

00:56:13.679 --> 00:56:15.920
would succeed. It would. Absolutely would succeed,

00:56:16.079 --> 00:56:17.880
but I don't think anyone's got the guts and the

00:56:17.880 --> 00:56:19.380
imagination to make it happen. I think there's

00:56:19.380 --> 00:56:21.400
too much ego involved, too. Yeah. All they gave

00:56:21.400 --> 00:56:23.420
one would be like, oh, no, no, we're not splicing

00:56:23.420 --> 00:56:25.460
this up, and I get half of it. Ozzy would do

00:56:25.460 --> 00:56:27.920
it. He didn't care. And the technology is there

00:56:27.920 --> 00:56:30.179
for a rotating stage. Yeah. And put one band

00:56:30.179 --> 00:56:31.800
on the front with the other band on the back.

00:56:32.269 --> 00:56:34.469
It was time to switch. You rotate the stage around,

00:56:34.590 --> 00:56:36.429
plug everything in. You're good to go. Do you

00:56:36.429 --> 00:56:38.530
want to switch back? It takes 10 minutes. I would

00:56:38.530 --> 00:56:41.269
at least go once. Yeah. And then see how it was.

00:56:41.269 --> 00:56:43.250
If it sucked, then okay. But if it was good,

00:56:43.309 --> 00:56:47.289
I'd be like, hell yeah, do more. Okay, you got

00:56:47.289 --> 00:56:50.630
anything? I've got one more thing. Okay. It occurs

00:56:50.630 --> 00:56:55.449
to me lately that you really don't get big bands

00:56:55.449 --> 00:56:58.429
anymore. The only bands you hear about are the

00:56:58.429 --> 00:57:00.329
ones that have been around since forever ago.

00:57:00.909 --> 00:57:04.070
All you get anymore is individuals. Yes. And

00:57:04.070 --> 00:57:06.730
they're on stage with like a whole troupe of

00:57:06.730 --> 00:57:11.110
dancers and whatever. But the idea of a band

00:57:11.110 --> 00:57:13.889
with a band name and everybody plays an instrument

00:57:13.889 --> 00:57:16.510
and they're on the stage together, you pretty

00:57:16.510 --> 00:57:19.550
much had to be popular. at least 20 years ago

00:57:19.550 --> 00:57:21.710
before you have any kind of chance. No, it started

00:57:21.710 --> 00:57:24.010
with the boy bands because none of them played

00:57:24.010 --> 00:57:25.670
in this where they just went out there dancing

00:57:25.670 --> 00:57:27.650
and shaking their ass. And that was the transition

00:57:27.650 --> 00:57:30.670
from band to individual because it was a band

00:57:30.670 --> 00:57:34.210
full of singers. Yes. And now it's, you know,

00:57:34.269 --> 00:57:36.969
Jelly Roll, individual. Taylor Swift, individual.

00:57:37.469 --> 00:57:40.389
Katy Perry, individual. Lady Gaga, individual.

00:57:40.730 --> 00:57:43.960
There are no bands anymore. They pick an individual

00:57:43.960 --> 00:57:46.500
who's got the right look and who they can build

00:57:46.500 --> 00:57:48.519
a mystique around and who will follow instructions.

00:57:49.579 --> 00:57:51.920
And you don't have to deal with a group of three

00:57:51.920 --> 00:57:53.820
or four people who all have different opinions.

00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:56.099
It's just this one person. Everything rides on

00:57:56.099 --> 00:57:58.199
that one person. You don't have to talk one person

00:57:58.199 --> 00:58:01.219
into doing what they're told. And you've got

00:58:01.219 --> 00:58:03.559
a successful act on your hands. So it's easier

00:58:03.559 --> 00:58:05.840
and cheaper for the promoters and the record

00:58:05.840 --> 00:58:08.760
companies. But then we miss out because bands

00:58:08.760 --> 00:58:11.340
are always better than individuals. Oh, I know.

00:58:11.420 --> 00:58:15.159
Yeah. No, you're right. And it's vibe design,

00:58:15.260 --> 00:58:17.900
too, because people don't want to hear musicianship

00:58:17.900 --> 00:58:20.760
now. They want to see stars. Yeah. They want

00:58:20.760 --> 00:58:23.320
to see stars on stage, and that's it. They don't

00:58:23.320 --> 00:58:25.760
want anything else. Yep. Pretty much anything

00:58:25.760 --> 00:58:29.019
mainstream music -wise coming out is just there

00:58:29.019 --> 00:58:31.840
to make money, and that's it. If you really want

00:58:31.840 --> 00:58:35.119
to hear good bands and good musicians, your local

00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:37.760
music scene is about the best chance you have

00:58:37.760 --> 00:58:39.659
for that. Because those are people who are still

00:58:39.659 --> 00:58:41.260
going out and playing because they like going

00:58:41.260 --> 00:58:43.619
out and playing. Okay, hey, Ramone answered me.

00:58:43.760 --> 00:58:47.559
Oh, cool. Every week, Tuesday at 1030, I just

00:58:47.559 --> 00:58:49.619
need a day's notice so I can plan ahead, but

00:58:49.619 --> 00:58:51.159
would love to go. So let's go ahead and just

00:58:51.159 --> 00:58:53.119
put that down right now. All right. All right,

00:58:53.119 --> 00:58:55.159
good, yeah. He's going to be a really interesting

00:58:55.159 --> 00:58:58.500
guest. Yeah. From drug cartels to high corporate

00:58:58.500 --> 00:59:02.159
crime to actually high corporate positions. Guy's

00:59:02.159 --> 00:59:05.000
interesting, that's for sure. Yeah. But we'll

00:59:05.000 --> 00:59:07.849
let him tell his story. And actually, I lied.

00:59:07.849 --> 00:59:12.269
I do have one more thing. Oh, okay. Let me get

00:59:12.269 --> 00:59:17.789
to my... Okay, unlikely simultaneous historical

00:59:17.789 --> 00:59:22.630
events. Okay. The one I start with usually is

00:59:22.630 --> 00:59:28.250
there was a time in history where samurai were

00:59:28.250 --> 00:59:32.690
still a thing in Japan. And Abraham Lincoln was

00:59:32.690 --> 00:59:37.440
alive. And fax technology. had been invented

00:59:37.440 --> 00:59:41.039
using telegraph. So there was a point in history

00:59:41.039 --> 00:59:43.000
when it would have been possible for Abraham

00:59:43.000 --> 00:59:49.239
Lincoln to send a fax to a samurai. Isn't that

00:59:49.239 --> 00:59:52.239
weird? That is. You think of fax machines as

00:59:52.239 --> 00:59:59.539
like, you know, 80s, earliest. Yeah. 1860s. That's

00:59:59.539 --> 01:00:03.960
insane, isn't it? That's pretty fucking cool.

01:00:04.139 --> 01:00:08.480
They get weirder. Spain was a fascist dictatorship

01:00:08.480 --> 01:00:15.059
when Microsoft was founded. And what would have

01:00:15.059 --> 01:00:19.039
been that time frame? 1975. Pretty much 50 years

01:00:19.039 --> 01:00:21.940
ago this month is when Franco died and Spain

01:00:21.940 --> 01:00:24.559
was no longer a fascist dictatorship. I guess

01:00:24.559 --> 01:00:27.420
so. It doesn't seem like it. It seems like Franco

01:00:27.420 --> 01:00:29.380
had been in the 50s or something, but I guess

01:00:29.380 --> 01:00:32.920
not. Franco won the Spanish Civil War and came

01:00:32.920 --> 01:00:36.119
to power in April of 1939. With Hitler's help.

01:00:36.539 --> 01:00:39.980
Hitler sent his Luftwaffe over there to get combat

01:00:39.980 --> 01:00:42.360
experience, which they used to pound the snot

01:00:42.360 --> 01:00:47.139
out of holes. But Franco was a fascist dictator,

01:00:47.400 --> 01:00:52.400
and he was part of the Axis with Germany and

01:00:52.400 --> 01:00:57.079
Japan and Italy. But he kept constantly stalling

01:00:57.079 --> 01:00:59.239
and putting off Hitler. Hitler was like, send

01:00:59.239 --> 01:01:01.800
some troops, we need your troops. Oh, yeah. I'll

01:01:01.800 --> 01:01:03.760
get around to that. I'll talk to you next week.

01:01:03.960 --> 01:01:07.579
Yeah. And after World War II, everyone left Spain

01:01:07.579 --> 01:01:10.760
alone because they never bothered anybody. Franco

01:01:10.760 --> 01:01:14.619
wouldn't deport Jews the way Hitler wanted him

01:01:14.619 --> 01:01:17.360
to. He wouldn't allow the Germans to come put

01:01:17.360 --> 01:01:20.949
concentration camps and death camps there. So,

01:01:20.989 --> 01:01:23.190
like you said, nobody gave a crap about him.

01:01:23.210 --> 01:01:25.389
They're like, I didn't bother anyone. His human

01:01:25.389 --> 01:01:27.789
rights violations really weren't all that much

01:01:27.789 --> 01:01:29.829
worse than everybody else's at the time. Yeah.

01:01:30.230 --> 01:01:33.710
So, they let the fascist dictatorship of Spain

01:01:33.710 --> 01:01:38.489
exist until his death in 1975. Interesting. Isn't

01:01:38.489 --> 01:01:40.969
that weird? Yeah. But think of all the people

01:01:40.969 --> 01:01:42.989
who talked about going to visit Spain in the

01:01:42.989 --> 01:01:46.750
60s and early 70s. They were going to a fascist

01:01:46.750 --> 01:01:48.769
dictatorship, and they didn't think a thing of

01:01:48.769 --> 01:01:53.500
it. Yeah, they had no clue, I know. And to think

01:01:53.500 --> 01:01:56.739
that lasted until 1975 is insane. Yeah, Spain

01:01:56.739 --> 01:01:59.980
has only been free for 50 years. Less time than

01:01:59.980 --> 01:02:04.420
I've been alive. Wow, that's insane. Yeah. Here's

01:02:04.420 --> 01:02:07.840
another weird one. There were no classes teaching

01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:11.199
calculus in Harvard's curriculum for the first

01:02:11.199 --> 01:02:14.119
few years because calculus hadn't been discovered

01:02:14.119 --> 01:02:18.670
yet. Oh, wow. There was no such thing as calculus.

01:02:18.730 --> 01:02:23.710
That's hard to imagine, too. Yeah, isn't it?

01:02:23.949 --> 01:02:26.449
I mean, you figure, you know, like a trade school,

01:02:26.550 --> 01:02:29.110
they wouldn't have aircraft mechanics until they

01:02:29.110 --> 01:02:34.010
invented airplanes. But calculus. And Harvard.

01:02:35.230 --> 01:02:37.829
Calculus came later? That's just weird. Yeah.

01:02:38.190 --> 01:02:41.949
Wow. Here's one that blew my mind. There are

01:02:41.949 --> 01:02:46.619
two world empires that span the entire gap. From

01:02:46.619 --> 01:02:51.639
Jesus Christ to Babe Ruth. So when Jesus was

01:02:51.639 --> 01:02:55.739
born, there was the Holy Roman Empire. And that

01:02:55.739 --> 01:02:58.719
lasted. And then when that broke apart, the Ottoman

01:02:58.719 --> 01:03:02.760
Empire took over. And that lasted all of the

01:03:02.760 --> 01:03:06.880
time until Babe Ruth was alive. Wow. The Ottoman

01:03:06.880 --> 01:03:09.920
Empire. The Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire

01:03:09.920 --> 01:03:12.639
spanned the entire 2 ,000 years. The Roman Empire,

01:03:12.760 --> 01:03:16.440
I see that. But the Ottoman Empire? Yeah. And

01:03:16.440 --> 01:03:19.099
they only got wiped out by World War I. Yeah.

01:03:19.420 --> 01:03:22.679
I guess so. Isn't that weird? Jesus to Babe Ruth.

01:03:22.880 --> 01:03:27.059
Two empires. Man, if you put that on paper, you're

01:03:27.059 --> 01:03:29.599
like, what? No way. I'm going to share it all

01:03:29.599 --> 01:03:31.760
day long, but that being explained like that,

01:03:31.880 --> 01:03:36.059
I'm like, I guess so. Wow. When the pyramids

01:03:36.059 --> 01:03:40.500
were being built in Egypt, Giza, there were still

01:03:40.500 --> 01:03:44.079
woolly mammoths on the planet. Wow. Living woolly

01:03:44.079 --> 01:03:50.360
mammoths. So the pyramid builders could have

01:03:50.360 --> 01:03:52.739
sat down to a dinner of fresh woolly mammoth

01:03:52.739 --> 01:03:54.480
steak. Oh, what I was thinking is they put all

01:03:54.480 --> 01:03:56.559
those stones on top of the mammoths and made

01:03:56.559 --> 01:04:00.719
them go over there. That's how they did it. It

01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:03.880
was mammoths. Yeah, there you go. Here's a good

01:04:03.880 --> 01:04:06.940
one. No wonder Wolfgang's band is named after

01:04:06.940 --> 01:04:09.679
them. Yeah, there we go. Connect the dots, people.

01:04:10.480 --> 01:04:14.489
Anyhow. The last use. Of the guillotine in France

01:04:14.489 --> 01:04:18.110
was the same year that Star Wars came out. 1976

01:04:18.110 --> 01:04:24.489
or 76? 76. Wow. So as recently as then, people

01:04:24.489 --> 01:04:26.530
were being beheaded. I'm in favor for it. I'm

01:04:26.530 --> 01:04:29.010
in favor for it. If someone does something that

01:04:29.010 --> 01:04:32.170
egregious, they should. Yeah. You know, and it

01:04:32.170 --> 01:04:34.809
should be, to me, I've always thought this, let

01:04:34.809 --> 01:04:39.170
the victim's families pick it. If it's a drawn

01:04:39.170 --> 01:04:41.809
quarter in them, cutting their eyes out and making

01:04:41.809 --> 01:04:44.889
them eat them, I don't care. Yeah, I think pedophiles

01:04:44.889 --> 01:04:47.030
should suffer that fate. Oh, that would be great.

01:04:47.550 --> 01:04:49.909
Rapists and kidnappers. And they say they can't

01:04:49.909 --> 01:04:51.989
help it. Liability lawyers. Pull their eyes out

01:04:51.989 --> 01:04:55.309
and make them eat it. I bet you they can help

01:04:55.309 --> 01:05:01.389
it then. Yeah. Yep. Last one I got. Oxford University

01:05:01.389 --> 01:05:05.869
in England. Oxford University was already 300

01:05:05.869 --> 01:05:09.219
years old. when the Aztec Empire was founded.

01:05:11.380 --> 01:05:15.280
Wow. That one seems... Yeah, you tend to think

01:05:15.280 --> 01:05:17.920
of the Aztec Empire as like way back then, but

01:05:17.920 --> 01:05:21.300
Oxford was already over 300 years old. Yeah,

01:05:21.340 --> 01:05:23.699
you know what? I see it now, and it's true, but

01:05:23.699 --> 01:05:26.420
if you just work that out, that's where those

01:05:26.420 --> 01:05:30.980
ones are like, okay. They say that, but like...

01:05:30.980 --> 01:05:35.320
Yeah. Wow. Okay. That's just kind of weird. Okay.

01:05:36.159 --> 01:05:39.260
So that's my weird fact. I love that, and I like

01:05:39.260 --> 01:05:41.119
breaking this up with stuff like that, actually.

01:05:41.579 --> 01:05:44.360
It's kind of fun. Because not everybody appreciates

01:05:44.360 --> 01:05:46.900
a hard rock music scene like we do. Yeah. So

01:05:46.900 --> 01:05:49.059
they might appreciate some stuff like that. But

01:05:49.059 --> 01:05:54.659
I have some bullet points. Sure. All right. Should

01:05:54.659 --> 01:05:57.519
Richie Blackmore get a solo induction into the

01:05:57.519 --> 01:06:00.820
Hall of Fame? I know it's worthless, but, I mean,

01:06:00.840 --> 01:06:03.460
still. His body of work can influence multiple

01:06:03.460 --> 01:06:05.699
generations with his style of innovation, not

01:06:05.699 --> 01:06:09.679
to mention rainbow and also purple. We're not

01:06:09.679 --> 01:06:12.340
going to throw in Blackmore's Night. I mean,

01:06:12.360 --> 01:06:17.920
Druid music. But yeah, not only his performing

01:06:17.920 --> 01:06:20.019
and playing abilities, I mean, playing ability

01:06:20.019 --> 01:06:22.980
for the albums, performing ability for live situations,

01:06:23.400 --> 01:06:26.199
and then songwriting on top of that, and then

01:06:26.199 --> 01:06:29.320
to last so long and be relevant, have some of

01:06:29.320 --> 01:06:32.559
his music. or a lot of his music still very popular

01:06:32.559 --> 01:06:35.840
so many years on. I think that qualifies him

01:06:35.840 --> 01:06:39.519
for an induction. Yeah, I think so too. I would

01:06:39.519 --> 01:06:44.239
vote for him. Yeah, I would too. And the way

01:06:44.239 --> 01:06:45.739
the Hall of Fame is now, I could vote for him

01:06:45.739 --> 01:06:49.920
five or six times. Good point. Yeah, I've always

01:06:49.920 --> 01:06:52.340
thought that he deserved it. I also think it

01:06:52.340 --> 01:06:59.590
may be harder to prove with Tony Iommi. But I

01:06:59.590 --> 01:07:02.610
think his guitar work was so influential, they

01:07:02.610 --> 01:07:05.710
should consider it. Yeah. Maybe a different award

01:07:05.710 --> 01:07:08.349
for like an Influencers Hall of Fame. Okay, that

01:07:08.349 --> 01:07:10.949
would be it right there. And then Blackmore would

01:07:10.949 --> 01:07:12.929
get it just on Rainbow and the other stuff that

01:07:12.929 --> 01:07:18.030
he's done. Yeah. Okay. Should there be a fan...

01:07:18.030 --> 01:07:19.989
I know the answer to this, but I'm going to ask

01:07:19.989 --> 01:07:23.489
it anyhow. Should there be a fan voted inductee

01:07:23.489 --> 01:07:26.650
into the Hall of Fame? Yes. Yes. And also, if

01:07:26.650 --> 01:07:29.510
they win or not, should be? Hall of Fame, you

01:07:29.510 --> 01:07:34.090
know, it should be voted by the fans. Yeah. Of

01:07:34.090 --> 01:07:35.710
course, you've got to be careful about that.

01:07:35.769 --> 01:07:39.750
There was, I think it was over in England, there

01:07:39.750 --> 01:07:42.969
was, like, a car ferry boat that they had built

01:07:42.969 --> 01:07:44.989
and was going to, like, you know, ferry boats

01:07:44.989 --> 01:07:47.190
across a river or canal, and they let the public

01:07:47.190 --> 01:07:49.889
name it. And you know what the number one name

01:07:49.889 --> 01:07:53.489
they chose was? O .T. McVoteface. Oh, that's

01:07:53.489 --> 01:07:55.889
right. And that's what they named it. Okay, you

01:07:55.889 --> 01:07:58.869
know what? So I don't trust the fans to vote.

01:08:00.050 --> 01:08:03.429
And also the ballot box stuff. People are going

01:08:03.429 --> 01:08:04.989
to get in there and be idiots, just like they

01:08:04.989 --> 01:08:07.389
are in the NFL. There's going to be 10 ,000 dead

01:08:07.389 --> 01:08:10.170
Democrats voting for it. That's what happens

01:08:10.170 --> 01:08:12.030
when you're a Democrat. You die and you vote

01:08:12.030 --> 01:08:14.539
more often. You vote more often. So they never

01:08:14.539 --> 01:08:16.479
voted in their whole life and all of a sudden

01:08:16.479 --> 01:08:18.819
started voting in the afterlife. There was somebody

01:08:18.819 --> 01:08:22.079
who actually wrote a letter of protest to a newspaper

01:08:22.079 --> 01:08:25.500
because they found a bunch of people were exposed.

01:08:25.819 --> 01:08:27.720
It's like, well, this person's dead and he voted

01:08:27.720 --> 01:08:30.340
Democrat. And this guy wrote and said, my grandfather

01:08:30.340 --> 01:08:32.560
was a lifelong Republican. There's no way he

01:08:32.560 --> 01:08:34.260
ever would have voted Democrat. And I'm more

01:08:34.260 --> 01:08:36.779
insulted that you had him vote Democrat. than

01:08:36.779 --> 01:08:38.779
the fact that you stole a dead man's identity

01:08:38.779 --> 01:08:41.960
to cast a vote. At least it could have been somebody

01:08:41.960 --> 01:08:43.640
he actually would have voted for. Yeah, yeah,

01:08:43.720 --> 01:08:52.079
yeah. That was hilarious. Yep. Have glam bands

01:08:52.079 --> 01:08:55.260
been snubbed from the hall? Yeah. Yeah, they

01:08:55.260 --> 01:08:58.720
have, and I think, honestly, probably good reason,

01:08:58.760 --> 01:09:01.319
because so many of them were just big at the

01:09:01.319 --> 01:09:03.920
time because of what it was. Yeah, they had the

01:09:03.920 --> 01:09:06.420
right look and the right sound. You'd have to

01:09:06.420 --> 01:09:11.119
get the ones with staying power. Yeah. And I

01:09:11.119 --> 01:09:13.020
can't really think of any right off hand poison,

01:09:13.100 --> 01:09:16.220
probably. I think if there's any of them, poison

01:09:16.220 --> 01:09:20.220
should be considered. And Motley Crue, their

01:09:20.220 --> 01:09:24.119
early stuff, yeah, but they really... Hey there,

01:09:24.159 --> 01:09:27.060
slap nuts. It's time for the Creeps Music News.

01:09:29.720 --> 01:09:32.220
Hey, my little pumpkin seeds. This is Johnny

01:09:32.220 --> 01:09:35.689
Rohypnol with your music news. Almost two decades

01:09:35.689 --> 01:09:37.989
after donating hundreds of signed books to the

01:09:37.989 --> 01:09:40.930
Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, a legendary musician

01:09:40.930 --> 01:09:43.369
returned to the museum Saturday to sign the book

01:09:43.369 --> 01:09:46.569
he wrote about his massive collection. Geddy

01:09:46.569 --> 01:09:49.289
Lee is best known as the lead vocalist and bassist

01:09:49.289 --> 01:09:52.250
for legendary rock band Rush, but the Negro Leagues

01:09:52.250 --> 01:09:54.689
Baseball Museum knows him best as the man who

01:09:54.689 --> 01:09:58.050
donated 400 baseballs signed by Negro League

01:09:58.050 --> 01:10:01.210
players. Lee returned to the museum today to

01:10:01.210 --> 01:10:03.369
sign his new book about the stories tied to those

01:10:03.369 --> 01:10:06.409
baseballs. called 72 Stories from the Collection

01:10:06.409 --> 01:10:10.010
of Geddy Lee. Kendrick said Lee actually bid

01:10:10.010 --> 01:10:11.689
on the collection at an auction specifically

01:10:11.689 --> 01:10:15.409
to donate to the museum. Geddy, couldn't you

01:10:15.409 --> 01:10:17.210
have at least played a small set while in town?

01:10:17.470 --> 01:10:20.689
Casey isn't getting a tour date anyhow. This

01:10:20.689 --> 01:10:23.770
is Johnny Rohypnol. That was your music news.

01:10:23.869 --> 01:10:32.039
And remember, bar chords are bullshit. Nikki

01:10:32.039 --> 01:10:34.779
Sixx has done his best, in my opinion, to destroy

01:10:34.779 --> 01:10:38.500
their legacy. So right now, if it was me, they'd

01:10:38.500 --> 01:10:41.920
ask me, I'd say no. And not, definitely if they

01:10:41.920 --> 01:10:44.800
ever get in, not with John 5. Not with him. No.

01:10:44.819 --> 01:10:48.079
No mention. As a matter of fact, they should

01:10:48.079 --> 01:10:52.640
actually entertain John Carabi more than they

01:10:52.640 --> 01:10:55.819
should John 5. Yeah, absolutely. Because John

01:10:55.819 --> 01:10:58.479
Carabi wrote, to me, relevant music with him.

01:10:58.699 --> 01:11:01.079
It would be listed as Motley Crue with Vince

01:11:01.079 --> 01:11:03.960
Neil on vocals and John Carabi on vocals, and

01:11:03.960 --> 01:11:06.079
then leave John 5 completely out of it. Yeah,

01:11:06.239 --> 01:11:09.859
he's contributed. Yeah, you know what? I don't

01:11:09.859 --> 01:11:11.239
even want to go into it. I don't believe that

01:11:11.239 --> 01:11:13.579
John 5 has written anything for Motley Crue.

01:11:13.739 --> 01:11:16.460
No. Anything they're claiming he wrote was probably

01:11:16.460 --> 01:11:20.000
A .I. written by somebody else. I'm pretty sure

01:11:20.000 --> 01:11:22.399
that last, that Dog's A War or whatever it was,

01:11:22.399 --> 01:11:25.760
A .I. written was a horrible song. Even the video

01:11:25.760 --> 01:11:32.239
was AI. Axl Rose just sent out an open apology

01:11:32.239 --> 01:11:35.979
to all that he's done wrong. Is this a direct

01:11:35.979 --> 01:11:39.020
result of Ozzy's death? Did that affect him?

01:11:39.800 --> 01:11:41.779
I would think so, yeah. You can look this up.

01:11:42.000 --> 01:11:44.479
He wrote a big letter. I mean, it's like a therapy

01:11:44.479 --> 01:11:46.100
thing, too, but he wrote a letter to everybody

01:11:46.100 --> 01:11:48.220
he'd done wrong, and he apologized, and he's

01:11:48.220 --> 01:11:50.699
not that person, all that stuff, which I appreciate.

01:11:50.779 --> 01:11:53.140
I'm not making fun of him. Yeah. That took a

01:11:53.140 --> 01:11:55.100
lot of guts. Yeah. He could have easily just

01:11:55.100 --> 01:11:56.659
been like, yeah, you know what, we were all fucked

01:11:56.659 --> 01:11:59.180
up, whatever. Yeah. Kind of like Tony Iommi with

01:11:59.180 --> 01:12:01.720
that whole being abusive to Lena Ford thing.

01:12:01.920 --> 01:12:04.600
Yeah. His answer was... We were all on drugs.

01:12:05.300 --> 01:12:09.260
Yeah, but did you beat her and almost kill her,

01:12:09.340 --> 01:12:12.239
like she said? Yeah, we're all on drugs. That's

01:12:12.239 --> 01:12:14.520
just like Prince Andrews. Did you molest his

01:12:14.520 --> 01:12:16.340
children? Well, they said I sweat. I don't sweat.

01:12:17.039 --> 01:12:20.779
Same bullshit. Dodging the question. Don't take

01:12:20.779 --> 01:12:22.939
accountability. Don't say you're sorry. Just

01:12:22.939 --> 01:12:30.319
come up with an excuse. That reminded me of Axl

01:12:30.319 --> 01:12:33.340
Rose apologizing. It reminded me of... a musician

01:12:33.340 --> 01:12:37.159
whose name is Ryan Adams, not Brian Adams. Ryan

01:12:37.159 --> 01:12:39.460
Adams, yeah. Ryan Adams, alt country. Not the

01:12:39.460 --> 01:12:41.619
Canadian, or no, it's the other one Canadian.

01:12:42.100 --> 01:12:44.619
I think Brian Adams is Canadian. Yeah, yeah,

01:12:44.619 --> 01:12:46.539
the other one is not. Ryan Adams. People get

01:12:46.539 --> 01:12:49.380
him confused, yeah. Ryan Adams was, you know,

01:12:49.380 --> 01:12:51.819
Ryan Adams of the Cardinals. He was also in Whiskey

01:12:51.819 --> 01:12:54.859
Town. Yeah. So he did some alt country, did some

01:12:54.859 --> 01:12:57.649
kind of semi -folk, et cetera. And a few years

01:12:57.649 --> 01:13:00.369
back, he put out a public statement saying, you

01:13:00.369 --> 01:13:02.390
know, I know I've been a jerk and an asshole

01:13:02.390 --> 01:13:05.090
and hard to work with my whole career, and, you

01:13:05.090 --> 01:13:07.109
know, I'm really sorry, and I'm not that guy

01:13:07.109 --> 01:13:09.810
anymore, and nobody will work with me, and I'm

01:13:09.810 --> 01:13:13.090
broke, and I really need to work and be a musician

01:13:13.090 --> 01:13:15.390
again, so, you know, please, somebody, you know.

01:13:16.510 --> 01:13:18.890
So I guess some people felt sorry for him, and,

01:13:18.930 --> 01:13:20.930
you know, he kind of revived his career, and

01:13:20.930 --> 01:13:23.970
he was in Australia and New Zealand on a tour.

01:13:25.350 --> 01:13:28.890
And after a concert in Australia, he tweeted

01:13:28.890 --> 01:13:32.350
out how sick he was of Australia and New Zealand.

01:13:32.489 --> 01:13:35.050
Couldn't wait to leave. Oh, I remember that.

01:13:35.130 --> 01:13:37.170
He hated it there. Making fun of the people and

01:13:37.170 --> 01:13:41.939
the fans. And he was immediately... under a lot

01:13:41.939 --> 01:13:44.020
of heat and fire. He should have been. Oh, I'm

01:13:44.020 --> 01:13:46.979
sorry. It was just a mistake. I'm like, no, you

01:13:46.979 --> 01:13:48.880
don't get that chance. Get out of here. You already

01:13:48.880 --> 01:13:51.600
showed your hand. Don't try to correct it. It's

01:13:51.600 --> 01:13:54.880
done. So obviously Ryan Adams is still the jerk

01:13:54.880 --> 01:13:57.159
he's always been. He writes good music, and he

01:13:57.159 --> 01:14:00.060
performs well, but he's a pretty awful person

01:14:00.060 --> 01:14:02.880
to be around. A publicist got a hold of him and

01:14:02.880 --> 01:14:05.279
said, this is going to affect your career. You

01:14:05.279 --> 01:14:08.439
need to do something. Yeah. All right, Axel.

01:14:09.430 --> 01:14:12.270
Rose, of course, was thrilled to finally meet

01:14:12.270 --> 01:14:15.729
Ozzy at the back of the beginning concert. Ozzy

01:14:15.729 --> 01:14:18.789
was equally thrilled to meet Axl. He posted how

01:14:18.789 --> 01:14:21.510
nice it was to meet a legend in his age. Was

01:14:21.510 --> 01:14:24.970
Ozzy correct? I would say so. I say so, too,

01:14:25.069 --> 01:14:26.869
because he changed the whole music industry.

01:14:27.130 --> 01:14:29.670
Yeah, and Axl wasn't the bad guy everyone thought

01:14:29.670 --> 01:14:33.029
he was for busting up Guns N' Roses because Axl

01:14:33.029 --> 01:14:35.229
was the only sober one in the band. And the band

01:14:35.229 --> 01:14:37.550
would have either died on the road or been completely

01:14:37.550 --> 01:14:40.170
taken advantage of unless Axl stepped in and

01:14:40.170 --> 01:14:42.680
saved them. Yeah, he had anger issues and all

01:14:42.680 --> 01:14:44.939
of the above. Yeah, he was an asshole at times,

01:14:45.039 --> 01:14:47.819
yes. But the band thing was not his fault. And

01:14:47.819 --> 01:14:50.359
I agree with him, what he did. Someone had to

01:14:50.359 --> 01:14:52.640
save it, and he did. And he kept it going until

01:14:52.640 --> 01:14:55.100
they all got back together, which was great.

01:14:56.680 --> 01:15:00.000
Yeah, I think that he was right. I think Ozzy

01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:02.359
was right because the music industry was changed

01:15:02.359 --> 01:15:04.859
by accident. Yeah, very much. It was high hair.

01:15:05.829 --> 01:15:09.789
And nasal vocals and the big wows and woos and

01:15:09.789 --> 01:15:12.489
David Lee Roth knockoff stuff and all that. Okay,

01:15:12.529 --> 01:15:17.069
so he came out there. He had a unique voice.

01:15:18.069 --> 01:15:26.489
But the whole Janis Joplin effect transcended

01:15:26.489 --> 01:15:29.409
music at the time. Because everybody, like, remember

01:15:29.409 --> 01:15:31.909
Dangerous Toys? Yeah. That guy should have been

01:15:31.909 --> 01:15:36.689
shot. Honestly. He was trying to be Axl Rose

01:15:36.689 --> 01:15:38.630
so bad, I thought he was going to cut Axl's head

01:15:38.630 --> 01:15:42.430
off and burn his face. And then there's many

01:15:42.430 --> 01:15:45.869
other ones, including Grunge. Grunge's vocals

01:15:45.869 --> 01:15:48.770
came from Axl, in my opinion. It didn't start

01:15:48.770 --> 01:15:51.649
until after Guns N' Roses. And they did the,

01:15:51.689 --> 01:15:54.250
oh yeah, wah, wah, and all that stuff. Same thing.

01:15:54.989 --> 01:15:57.489
For the most part, they were imitating Axl, or

01:15:57.489 --> 01:16:00.050
they were imitating Eddie Vedder. Yeah, Ethel

01:16:00.050 --> 01:16:06.880
Merman effect, if you will. So, yeah, I agree

01:16:06.880 --> 01:16:10.479
with him. Okay. Axl had one album without Slash

01:16:10.479 --> 01:16:13.300
Enough. Chinese Democracy is the album. Should

01:16:13.300 --> 01:16:17.140
that album not be labeled Guns N' Roses? I would

01:16:17.140 --> 01:16:20.500
think, yeah. It was a good album, but... I mean,

01:16:20.539 --> 01:16:24.520
classify it as Axl Rose from Guns N' Roses album.

01:16:24.520 --> 01:16:27.180
Like they did with Black Sabbath with the one

01:16:27.180 --> 01:16:29.340
with Glenn Hughes as the singer. Yeah. Seven

01:16:29.340 --> 01:16:32.619
Star. Yeah. Black Sabbath featuring Tony Iommi.

01:16:32.680 --> 01:16:34.340
Yeah. They had to do that because of the record

01:16:34.340 --> 01:16:36.619
company because Tony Iommi was pissed. He was

01:16:36.619 --> 01:16:38.420
like, no, this is solo. And they're like, nope,

01:16:38.479 --> 01:16:41.000
we're not going to back you. Yeah. So then they

01:16:41.000 --> 01:16:43.000
agreed to do that. And I think that could be

01:16:43.000 --> 01:16:45.279
the same thing. It could be like, all right,

01:16:45.279 --> 01:16:48.560
this is Axl Rose featured in Guns N' Roses or

01:16:48.560 --> 01:16:51.000
Guns N' Roses featured in Axl or whatever. There's

01:16:51.000 --> 01:16:53.119
a couple more albums like that. The Pink Floyd

01:16:53.119 --> 01:16:55.909
album, Momentary Lapse of Reason. with Learning

01:16:55.909 --> 01:16:58.529
to Fly and Dogs of War. That was supposed to

01:16:58.529 --> 01:17:00.710
be a David Gilmour solo album. And it was excellent.

01:17:00.869 --> 01:17:02.949
It was. I love that album. Very good album. And

01:17:02.949 --> 01:17:06.989
another one, the Yes album, 90125. Oh, yeah.

01:17:07.310 --> 01:17:09.649
With Changes and Owner of a Lonely... That was

01:17:09.649 --> 01:17:12.109
supposed to be a Trevor Rabin solo album. The

01:17:12.109 --> 01:17:14.630
guitar player. Yeah, the guitar player. I remember

01:17:14.630 --> 01:17:17.029
that. And that was a great album. Yeah, it was

01:17:17.029 --> 01:17:18.850
a really good album. That was one of their biggest

01:17:18.850 --> 01:17:21.600
ones. It really revitalized their career. Owner

01:17:21.600 --> 01:17:23.939
of a Lonely Heart. Let's see. There's another

01:17:23.939 --> 01:17:26.560
big song on that, too. Leave It. Leave It, yeah.

01:17:27.619 --> 01:17:31.560
Changes. Yeah, Changes. The song arrangements

01:17:31.560 --> 01:17:35.460
on that were insane. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. All this

01:17:35.460 --> 01:17:38.140
stuff coming at you from different angles. Brilliant

01:17:38.140 --> 01:17:40.600
stuff. That's an excellent headphone album. Oh,

01:17:40.600 --> 01:17:42.739
yeah. Listen with the headphones on. That's gummies

01:17:42.739 --> 01:17:46.619
and a headphone. Yeah. In a hot tub. In fact,

01:17:46.619 --> 01:17:48.420
I think that's going to be my afternoon now that

01:17:48.420 --> 01:17:50.020
you mention it. Well, that's going to be me tonight.

01:17:50.140 --> 01:17:51.640
I'm going to be in a hot tub with the fucking

01:17:51.640 --> 01:17:54.239
headphones on listening to 90210. I'll just have

01:17:54.239 --> 01:17:57.060
to boil some water on the stove. You're welcome

01:17:57.060 --> 01:17:59.619
to come over. You're always welcome to come over.

01:17:59.659 --> 01:18:02.899
I appreciate it, yeah. And the chemicals are

01:18:02.899 --> 01:18:05.220
good now, so you won't get some skin disease.

01:18:05.439 --> 01:18:07.939
Yeah. There you go. Got plenty of bromations.

01:18:08.140 --> 01:18:13.640
All right. Axl had one album. Oh, no, no. Just

01:18:13.640 --> 01:18:16.680
read that. Okay. I would love to hear another

01:18:16.680 --> 01:18:18.579
Guns album. Do you think it will ever happen?

01:18:19.859 --> 01:18:21.960
I think it will. I think so, yeah. They have

01:18:21.960 --> 01:18:24.520
too many strong songwriters in that group, including

01:18:24.520 --> 01:18:29.199
Axl. He's a great songwriter. So is Duff. So

01:18:29.199 --> 01:18:32.350
is, of course, Slash. Do they still have Matt

01:18:32.350 --> 01:18:35.250
Sorum on drums? No, they hate each other. Oh,

01:18:35.250 --> 01:18:39.390
good, because he's a very technically proficient

01:18:39.390 --> 01:18:41.789
drummer, but his playing just leaves me cold.

01:18:41.949 --> 01:18:44.090
No, me too. I've never liked him. I don't know

01:18:44.090 --> 01:18:47.069
why they chose to steal him from the cult. Yeah,

01:18:47.130 --> 01:18:49.689
well, because Stephen Adler was bombed out of

01:18:49.689 --> 01:18:52.130
his mind. They needed somebody. Yeah, but they

01:18:52.130 --> 01:18:56.750
really seem like, yeah, I agree. It was a poor

01:18:56.750 --> 01:18:59.189
choice. I mean, songwriting -wise and for the

01:18:59.189 --> 01:19:02.500
sound of their... music. It was not a good choice

01:19:02.500 --> 01:19:04.800
for Matt Sorum. They hate him worse than they

01:19:04.800 --> 01:19:08.039
hate Steven Adler. And he hates them worse than

01:19:08.039 --> 01:19:11.739
Steven Adler hates them. Yikes. The new guy,

01:19:11.819 --> 01:19:17.720
Carpenter. Was it Duff or Slash? He said that's

01:19:17.720 --> 01:19:19.960
the best drummer he's ever worked with. Nice.

01:19:20.199 --> 01:19:21.779
I don't know that much about him. I'll check

01:19:21.779 --> 01:19:24.039
him out. He's got a pretty good reputation. That's

01:19:24.039 --> 01:19:27.699
all I know. Alright. Then finally, this is music

01:19:27.699 --> 01:19:30.840
kind of. Johnny Dare was Grand Marshal of the

01:19:30.840 --> 01:19:34.140
Kansas 400 at the Kansas Speedway. Nice. Keeping

01:19:34.140 --> 01:19:36.699
his name out there in the public, right? Yeah.

01:19:36.779 --> 01:19:39.239
Will he be back on the air next year, assuming

01:19:39.239 --> 01:19:43.939
his no compete is over? I would say so. I think

01:19:43.939 --> 01:19:45.359
it might take a couple years because it's going

01:19:45.359 --> 01:19:47.960
to have to be 101 to Fox. Yeah. And I don't think

01:19:47.960 --> 01:19:49.460
it's going to be a morning show. They seem to

01:19:49.460 --> 01:19:51.279
be doing all right, that Sparks and whoever.

01:19:51.680 --> 01:19:56.720
Okay. I think that it's... Chuck Nasty is in

01:19:56.720 --> 01:19:59.520
his 70s. Yeah. And Doug Metlock is in his 70s.

01:19:59.520 --> 01:20:01.079
Yeah. One of them, too, is probably going to

01:20:01.079 --> 01:20:03.720
retire, and they'll be like, well, who can we

01:20:03.720 --> 01:20:06.539
stick? Oh, Johnny Darrell already has an audience.

01:20:06.840 --> 01:20:09.060
Yeah. You know, but I could be wrong, and they

01:20:09.060 --> 01:20:10.720
could be like, we're going to move Sparks and

01:20:10.720 --> 01:20:13.399
whoever to somewhere else, and we're going to

01:20:13.399 --> 01:20:15.579
put him in first because that would cause a lot

01:20:15.579 --> 01:20:18.659
of buzz. But at the same token, they're second

01:20:18.659 --> 01:20:22.000
in ratings in Kansas City next to KCMO 94 .9.

01:20:22.790 --> 01:20:25.670
Up there in the high nines. I mean, I almost

01:20:25.670 --> 01:20:28.510
got a 10 share. And this, of course, is a Cume.

01:20:28.789 --> 01:20:30.689
Breaking it down is completely different, but

01:20:30.689 --> 01:20:33.170
they do well. They do really well on every day

01:20:33.170 --> 01:20:35.949
part. Yeah. So I could see them not wanting to

01:20:35.949 --> 01:20:40.449
tip over the outhouse. Yeah. But at the same

01:20:40.449 --> 01:20:43.590
time, that's pretty good buzz and pretty good

01:20:43.590 --> 01:20:48.189
following. So I think it's going to happen, but

01:20:48.189 --> 01:20:49.609
I don't think it's going to be traditionally.

01:20:49.609 --> 01:20:53.619
And also, Cume. Cumulus, I think it's, yeah.

01:20:53.920 --> 01:20:56.060
Is it Cumulus? Yeah, they're owned by Cumulus,

01:20:56.079 --> 01:20:59.159
Kansas City. The Kansas City division, I believe.

01:20:59.800 --> 01:21:01.920
They're into hiring the person, not the people

01:21:01.920 --> 01:21:04.640
around them. Every time they hire somebody like

01:21:04.640 --> 01:21:06.680
Skip Rohde, they didn't ask for any of his, anybody

01:21:06.680 --> 01:21:10.520
else's. They just got him. Doug Medlock, you

01:21:10.520 --> 01:21:13.159
know, anytime they get a slacker, they're like,

01:21:13.220 --> 01:21:14.739
hey, how about the rest of the morning? No, they

01:21:14.739 --> 01:21:18.720
just want slacking. So, you see, they save money

01:21:18.720 --> 01:21:21.720
like that. They get the name brand. but not all

01:21:21.720 --> 01:21:24.039
the people around him, and they make it work.

01:21:24.779 --> 01:21:27.060
Slacker changed the morning show to kind of a

01:21:27.060 --> 01:21:30.939
really, really kind of a little bit of talk,

01:21:31.020 --> 01:21:33.359
more music type of thing, and he had the Chiefs

01:21:33.359 --> 01:21:36.880
song of the week and stuff like that, and it

01:21:36.880 --> 01:21:39.319
worked. As a morning show, no, it wasn't the

01:21:39.319 --> 01:21:40.979
most entertaining or nothing, but he's kind of

01:21:40.979 --> 01:21:43.640
like the guy down the road. I've just seen him

01:21:43.640 --> 01:21:46.239
doing that with Johnny. Those morning shows where

01:21:46.239 --> 01:21:48.100
there are a lot of talk and skits and things,

01:21:48.180 --> 01:21:50.680
those work better on a talk format anyway, like

01:21:50.680 --> 01:21:53.119
a sports show. That's what they figured out.

01:21:53.199 --> 01:21:56.840
But on a rock and roll station, if they're sitting

01:21:56.840 --> 01:21:59.000
there for 20 minutes talking about what movie

01:21:59.000 --> 01:22:01.199
they watched and where they went to eat and what

01:22:01.199 --> 01:22:04.220
their golf game is like, it's like, dude, play

01:22:04.220 --> 01:22:07.109
some music. That's why I'm here. Yeah, the FM

01:22:07.109 --> 01:22:10.350
talk thing isn't what it was anyhow, but no,

01:22:10.510 --> 01:22:13.210
that is the best way to utilize a show like that.

01:22:13.289 --> 01:22:15.850
Yeah. Is where people don't expect music. Yeah.

01:22:15.949 --> 01:22:17.350
They're like, yeah, I don't want to hear anything.

01:22:17.409 --> 01:22:19.069
I just want to hear people talking about the

01:22:19.069 --> 01:22:22.010
current events. So there you go. All right, that

01:22:22.010 --> 01:22:25.569
is all I had of all of those. I got another weird

01:22:25.569 --> 01:22:29.689
fact, if you'd like. Okay, sure. Recently, people

01:22:29.689 --> 01:22:34.109
have noticed that the dogs of Chernobyl. Uh -huh.

01:22:34.359 --> 01:22:38.180
The nuclear power plant that blew up in the 80s.

01:22:41.640 --> 01:22:43.899
There's still a lot of wildlife around Cherry

01:22:43.899 --> 01:22:46.880
Hill. In fact, you can go there, and as long

01:22:46.880 --> 01:22:48.420
as you don't stay there too long, you're going

01:22:48.420 --> 01:22:51.479
to get too injured. Don't they still play music?

01:22:52.020 --> 01:22:54.779
Yeah. Yeah. Because there are people who work

01:22:54.779 --> 01:22:58.539
there and maintain things. But yeah, it's a total

01:22:58.539 --> 01:23:02.880
ghost town now. People noticed that the dogs

01:23:02.880 --> 01:23:07.020
of Chernobyl were turning blue. Really? Blue

01:23:07.020 --> 01:23:11.180
skin and blue fur. Mange? They had no idea. These

01:23:11.180 --> 01:23:13.340
dogs looked healthy. They looked just fine as

01:23:13.340 --> 01:23:16.520
they were turning blue. And, you know, for a

01:23:16.520 --> 01:23:18.300
few years they were like, what the hell is going

01:23:18.300 --> 01:23:20.819
on with these blue dogs? And so finally somebody

01:23:20.819 --> 01:23:24.460
worked up enough of a financial backing to go

01:23:24.460 --> 01:23:29.180
there and capture some of these dogs. find out

01:23:29.180 --> 01:23:31.340
why they're why they're blue what kind of you

01:23:31.340 --> 01:23:34.380
know bizarre mutation what they found out was

01:23:34.380 --> 01:23:36.920
these dogs had found a porta potty that had tipped

01:23:36.920 --> 01:23:39.960
over and were rolling around in the blue chemicals

01:23:39.960 --> 01:23:43.039
i wonder what they did with the rest of the money

01:23:43.039 --> 01:23:47.739
so they had this whole this whole expedition

01:23:47.739 --> 01:23:50.619
to go find out about these bizarre mutation of

01:23:50.619 --> 01:23:52.520
blue dogs it turns out they're just covered in

01:23:52.520 --> 01:23:55.739
porta potty shit oh my god i love that i love

01:23:55.739 --> 01:23:59.189
that I was expecting someone spray painting them.

01:23:59.270 --> 01:24:01.430
Yeah. Hey, watch this. It's going to be a great

01:24:01.430 --> 01:24:03.590
gag. This is even better. The dogs were doing

01:24:03.590 --> 01:24:06.229
it to themselves. I know. Because dogs roll and

01:24:06.229 --> 01:24:08.569
stuff. Can you imagine coming back to the financiers

01:24:08.569 --> 01:24:13.390
and go, well, do you have some answers? Let's

01:24:13.390 --> 01:24:15.069
not get to that yet. You know, it was a long

01:24:15.069 --> 01:24:17.010
time. We took a long time trying to figure that

01:24:17.010 --> 01:24:22.130
out. No, what were the answers? What was that?

01:24:22.390 --> 01:24:24.689
Blue chemical you dumped in your toilet tank,

01:24:24.770 --> 01:24:27.289
was that Vanish? Tidy Bowl or Vanish. Or Vanish,

01:24:27.390 --> 01:24:29.930
Vanish, I think. Tidy Bowl, you put in the back,

01:24:29.930 --> 01:24:31.810
and they had the little Tidy Bowl man in a boat.

01:24:31.829 --> 01:24:33.930
Oh, yeah, a little boat. Yeah, yeah. That was

01:24:33.930 --> 01:24:36.069
Vanish. You, like, poured it in there, and then

01:24:36.069 --> 01:24:37.829
it supposedly got rid of all the shit stains.

01:24:38.050 --> 01:24:41.670
Yeah. That's basically what's going on. Where

01:24:41.670 --> 01:24:44.329
you ate beets and left a stain in there. Yeah,

01:24:44.329 --> 01:24:48.779
there you go. Yeah, and we get rid of it. Oh,

01:24:48.859 --> 01:24:52.239
and a side note, Jeffy X, tomorrow night, Jeffy

01:24:52.239 --> 01:24:54.479
X is our sleuth that uncovers everything, you

01:24:54.479 --> 01:24:57.539
know, like bad product designs. He's going to

01:24:57.539 --> 01:25:00.039
have a complete guide to all devices found under

01:25:00.039 --> 01:25:03.239
your mom's mattress. Oh, that should be a good

01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:04.960
one. You're going to have to stay tuned for that

01:25:04.960 --> 01:25:10.640
one. I do have, you had mentioned coming up with

01:25:10.640 --> 01:25:13.260
bands that you want their original lead singer

01:25:13.260 --> 01:25:16.079
back. So I'd come up with a list of some of those.

01:25:17.160 --> 01:25:20.100
That'd be cool. Yeah, yeah, I got some too. So

01:25:20.100 --> 01:25:21.800
go ahead. Let's see where my glasses went. Here

01:25:21.800 --> 01:25:27.699
we go. So, first one I came up with, Foreigner.

01:25:28.920 --> 01:25:31.260
I like the guy who's singing for him now, and

01:25:31.260 --> 01:25:32.859
he sounds a lot like the original guy. I got

01:25:32.859 --> 01:25:35.000
Lou Graham also. I want Lou Graham. I got him

01:25:35.000 --> 01:25:37.300
too. Back in Foreigner. Awesome. But even though

01:25:37.300 --> 01:25:42.720
it's not possible anymore. No. Stone Temple Pilots.

01:25:43.659 --> 01:25:46.800
Scott Weiland? Yeah. Yeah. They weren't anything

01:25:46.800 --> 01:25:53.000
without him. No, I know. Yes. John Anderson?

01:25:53.279 --> 01:25:56.140
Yeah. He left on occasion, and they were going

01:25:56.140 --> 01:26:00.020
to get the guys from Supertramp, Roger Hodgson,

01:26:00.159 --> 01:26:07.819
to sing. And John Anderson came back. He comes

01:26:07.819 --> 01:26:10.739
back on his own. Van Halen's another one. Uh

01:26:10.739 --> 01:26:15.159
-huh. Sammy Hagar is nice and fun and stuff,

01:26:15.260 --> 01:26:17.199
but the David Lee Roth days were just more fun.

01:26:17.579 --> 01:26:22.800
They just really were. That's cool. I would like

01:26:22.800 --> 01:26:26.939
to see Genesis back with Peter Gabriel singing.

01:26:27.439 --> 01:26:30.760
I would too. I like that better than Phil Collins

01:26:30.760 --> 01:26:34.319
always did. Yeah, I like the Peter Gabriel years

01:26:34.319 --> 01:26:36.340
a lot better than that. I did too. Their music

01:26:36.340 --> 01:26:39.220
was more unique. Yeah. Not so much pop -ish.

01:26:39.359 --> 01:26:44.539
Yeah, definitely more of an edge. ACDC. No offense

01:26:44.539 --> 01:26:46.720
to Brian Johnson, but I want Bon Scott back.

01:26:46.739 --> 01:26:50.079
Me too. Me too. And I had that guy. I had that

01:26:50.079 --> 01:26:57.899
too. Journey. Not their strictly other original

01:26:57.899 --> 01:26:59.960
singer, but the one they had the most success

01:26:59.960 --> 01:27:04.600
with was Steve Perry. I think he's better than

01:27:04.600 --> 01:27:08.939
Arnel Pineda. Oh, I do too. More photogenic,

01:27:09.180 --> 01:27:13.180
more the woman guy. Plus he invented all that.

01:27:13.300 --> 01:27:14.979
He was online too. He invented all that, yes.

01:27:15.380 --> 01:27:19.359
And not Robert Fleischman either. And on the

01:27:19.359 --> 01:27:21.899
first album where they had Steve Perry, they

01:27:21.899 --> 01:27:24.319
also had the keyboard player Greg Raleigh singing

01:27:24.319 --> 01:27:27.420
lead too. Yeah, they did. That's right. And he's

01:27:27.420 --> 01:27:29.359
decent. I mean, he's a good singer. There's another

01:27:29.359 --> 01:27:31.560
one that I have that I share with you. I had

01:27:31.560 --> 01:27:32.960
a feeling we were going to share a lot of them.

01:27:34.260 --> 01:27:39.340
Jefferson Starship. Mickey Thomas is fine. But

01:27:39.340 --> 01:27:41.699
Marty Balin is better. Yeah, Paul Cantner is

01:27:41.699 --> 01:27:44.300
a deterrent. Yeah, but I want Marty Balin back.

01:27:44.920 --> 01:27:47.939
Yeah, I do too. I agree. What about Grace Slick?

01:27:48.640 --> 01:27:52.079
Eh. No, I don't want her back. I never liked

01:27:52.079 --> 01:27:55.840
her singing. No. I mean, the song that I like

01:27:55.840 --> 01:27:58.520
most that Grace Slick does is White Rabbit. And

01:27:58.520 --> 01:28:04.180
after that, it's kind of like None. I'm okay

01:28:04.180 --> 01:28:06.970
with her being backup vocals. Yeah, I am too.

01:28:07.069 --> 01:28:10.609
As far as lead vocals... Me too. Just not that

01:28:10.609 --> 01:28:13.609
strong. I thought Stevie Nicks was a better lead

01:28:13.609 --> 01:28:15.670
vocalist than Grace Lick. And Stevie Nicks really

01:28:15.670 --> 01:28:16.949
isn't all that great lead vocalist. I always

01:28:16.949 --> 01:28:19.050
liked Christine McVie much better. Oh, me too.

01:28:19.630 --> 01:28:22.970
Christine McVie was... I had such a crush on

01:28:22.970 --> 01:28:26.210
her. Oh, she was such... I agree. She was smoking.

01:28:26.369 --> 01:28:28.869
Yeah. And plus, she's a better singer. Yeah.

01:28:30.989 --> 01:28:36.160
Deep Purple. I'd like to see Ian Gillian. as

01:28:36.160 --> 01:28:38.880
the lead vocalist. Everyone else they've had,

01:28:38.939 --> 01:28:42.260
it's okay. David Coverdale was fine, but Ian

01:28:42.260 --> 01:28:47.279
Gillan had that incredible range. And also, he

01:28:47.279 --> 01:28:50.699
had that magic. Burn was a great album. Stormbringer

01:28:50.699 --> 01:28:53.260
was a good album. But then after that, well,

01:28:53.279 --> 01:28:55.260
I know that Blackmore left and they didn't have

01:28:55.260 --> 01:28:56.800
the songwriting that they did and everything,

01:28:56.979 --> 01:29:00.819
but still. I mean, Tommy Bolan was a really good

01:29:00.819 --> 01:29:02.420
guitarist, but he didn't have the same feel.

01:29:03.000 --> 01:29:07.199
But I agree with you. Absolutely. Ian Gillen,

01:29:07.199 --> 01:29:10.939
and he is in the band now. The problem is he

01:29:10.939 --> 01:29:13.979
cannot sing stuff like Highway Star. Yeah, he

01:29:13.979 --> 01:29:16.479
really can't. They do a deviated version of it

01:29:16.479 --> 01:29:19.539
that to me isn't that exciting, but he can do

01:29:19.539 --> 01:29:21.859
it. And they don't use backing vocals to their

01:29:21.859 --> 01:29:25.579
credit. There's no shame in having somebody come

01:29:25.579 --> 01:29:30.029
in just to sing those parts. Yes. Yep. And on

01:29:30.029 --> 01:29:31.909
the subject of David Coverdale, I heard he's

01:29:31.909 --> 01:29:34.270
retired now. Yeah, yeah, he retired two days

01:29:34.270 --> 01:29:38.810
ago. Yeah. So he's decided he's done. And then

01:29:38.810 --> 01:29:40.689
the last one where I want the original lead singer

01:29:40.689 --> 01:29:44.949
back, Alice in Chains. You got, oh, Layne Staley.

01:29:45.090 --> 01:29:47.250
There's just nobody liking. I agree. I think

01:29:47.250 --> 01:29:49.449
I have two or three that you didn't cover. That's

01:29:49.449 --> 01:29:54.029
it. He was such a train wreck as a person. Oh,

01:29:54.069 --> 01:29:56.460
I know. Boy, he was fun on stage. Now, let me

01:29:56.460 --> 01:29:58.199
look on here and see the ones that you didn't

01:29:58.199 --> 01:30:00.579
cover. I knew that was going to happen. Yeah,

01:30:00.619 --> 01:30:01.779
we were going to have quite a bit of overlap.

01:30:03.619 --> 01:30:06.560
All right, hang on. Oh, Lynyrd Skynyrd's another

01:30:06.560 --> 01:30:11.680
one. Okay. Was it Ronnie Van Zandt? Ronnie Van

01:30:11.680 --> 01:30:14.260
Zandt, not Johnny Van Zandt. Yeah. His cousin,

01:30:14.380 --> 01:30:20.079
I believe. Miami Steve Van Zandt. Okay, that's

01:30:20.079 --> 01:30:21.979
one I didn't have, but I agree with that 100%.

01:30:21.979 --> 01:30:25.039
I think it looks to me like there's one guy.

01:30:26.720 --> 01:30:30.979
John Carabi and Motley Crue. Yeah. And all the

01:30:30.979 --> 01:30:34.340
other ones you already mentioned. Okay. We're

01:30:34.340 --> 01:30:36.420
reading each other's mind long distance. Yeah,

01:30:36.479 --> 01:30:38.300
you know what? They're the ones that stand out,

01:30:38.340 --> 01:30:40.000
and that's the ones that we got, right? Yeah.

01:30:40.300 --> 01:30:45.060
Oh, and I forgot to mention this earlier. I want

01:30:45.060 --> 01:30:47.380
to start a petition for Mahomes to grow his mohawk

01:30:47.380 --> 01:30:51.039
back. Yes. Yes. Yeah. He hasn't been the same

01:30:51.039 --> 01:30:53.000
since he... No, ever since he cut it, he's kind

01:30:53.000 --> 01:30:57.000
of like Goliath. Yeah. Wasn't it Goliath? Samson.

01:30:57.359 --> 01:30:59.260
Samson, Samson, yeah. Yeah, Delilah cut his hair.

01:30:59.380 --> 01:31:01.079
Yeah, Delilah, and he lost all his, yeah. Yeah.

01:31:01.159 --> 01:31:02.979
I think he needs to grow it back. He lost all

01:31:02.979 --> 01:31:07.600
his superpowers. Definitely. All right. Oh, no,

01:31:07.619 --> 01:31:09.359
I'm kind of hungry smelling this food. Yeah,

01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:10.939
no kidding. Do you want to go find something

01:31:10.939 --> 01:31:12.539
to eat and tell these people to go fuck themselves?

01:31:12.720 --> 01:31:15.239
I think we should. Okay. Should I tell them again,

01:31:15.279 --> 01:31:17.449
or did I just tell them? Tell them again they

01:31:17.449 --> 01:31:19.369
weren't listening. Thank you everybody for listening.

01:31:19.390 --> 01:31:21.390
You guys are so awesome. Go fuck yourself.
