00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.259
Hey, my fellow heavy breeders. This is Dash Riptide.

00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:09.759
Your music news. Metal band Slayer fans unite.

00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:13.380
Your boys and Slayer have a new hot sauce named

00:00:13.380 --> 00:00:17.239
Rain and Blood. This sauce's heat meter is off

00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:21.079
the hook. So use with caution or be a dick and

00:00:21.079 --> 00:00:25.879
put it on your buddy's sandwich. Maybe not. This

00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.839
is Dash Riptide and that was your music news.

00:00:29.550 --> 00:00:31.969
If it's too loud, you probably have ear damage,

00:00:32.109 --> 00:00:58.159
just like me. Creeps. We are the music. Creeps.

00:00:59.579 --> 00:01:03.000
Yes, we are. Yes, we're very creepy. All right.

00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:06.239
Creeping into your ear holes for yet another

00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:09.319
episode. Yep. This is the music. Creeps, of course.

00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:11.340
We've stated that, what, 30 times right now?

00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.439
Yeah. Let's say five or six more. Yeah, music

00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:17.930
creeps. Music creeps. Music creeps. Well, let's

00:01:17.930 --> 00:01:19.790
see. Well, let's see. I've got stories on...

00:01:19.790 --> 00:01:23.730
I've got a story about Neil Diamond. Okay. Some

00:01:23.730 --> 00:01:26.950
edits I saw on an episode of Big Bang Theory

00:01:26.950 --> 00:01:33.530
the other day. Oh, cool. Spotify and their vote

00:01:33.530 --> 00:01:37.049
for the number one female rock song ever. Cool.

00:01:37.109 --> 00:01:39.269
I've got a list of musicians who committed crimes,

00:01:39.409 --> 00:01:41.150
but no sex crimes, because I don't want to talk

00:01:41.150 --> 00:01:43.250
about sex crimes anymore. No, no, we're pretty

00:01:43.250 --> 00:01:48.819
much... A list of worst bandmates ever. And I

00:01:48.819 --> 00:01:51.780
still have a lot more on my list of really unusual

00:01:51.780 --> 00:01:57.879
band names. Okay. I have, of course, Bullet Points.

00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:00.359
Love those Bullet Points. I have a full story

00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:04.340
about the song It's a Raid by Ozzy. Ooh. I have

00:02:04.340 --> 00:02:06.680
Uber Eats has their most expensive orders of

00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:10.719
all time. Oh, that'd be good. I have an intoxicated

00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:15.120
Air Asia passenger. passenger that stripped off

00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:20.539
all her clothes. Oh God. Let's see, I've got

00:02:20.539 --> 00:02:23.340
a bunch of stuff here. I'm going to skip that

00:02:23.340 --> 00:02:30.539
one. That's a little bit deep. You know what?

00:02:30.580 --> 00:02:32.159
Let's just go ahead and go on with it. I've got

00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:34.800
a bunch of stuff here. A lot of it music, some

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:39.060
of it not. Oh, the earth vibrations are getting

00:02:39.060 --> 00:02:42.490
stronger. And bothering some people. Oh, cool.

00:02:42.810 --> 00:02:45.110
Yeah. Oh, Gene Simmons comments on the Rock and

00:02:45.110 --> 00:02:50.009
Roll Hall of Fame. Oh, the real story about Houston

00:02:50.009 --> 00:02:53.389
and Ozzy firing the whole band in Houston. And

00:02:53.389 --> 00:02:56.689
then he went to San Antonio and he pissed on

00:02:56.689 --> 00:02:59.810
the Alamo. Oh, yeah. And then Sharon overrode

00:02:59.810 --> 00:03:02.469
him and hired the whole band back and had them

00:03:02.469 --> 00:03:07.169
all go San Antonio. And he got caught pissing

00:03:07.169 --> 00:03:09.830
on the Alamo because he's not a big binge. You

00:03:09.830 --> 00:03:11.090
know what? I'll go into the story a little bit

00:03:11.090 --> 00:03:13.129
later. Anyhow, you got something you want to

00:03:13.129 --> 00:03:16.349
go into? Yeah. Neil Diamond has been in the news

00:03:16.349 --> 00:03:19.110
recently because there was a movie called Song

00:03:19.110 --> 00:03:22.569
Sung Blue that came out recently about an Elvis,

00:03:22.849 --> 00:03:26.569
not Elvis, Neil Diamond tribute band. And it

00:03:26.569 --> 00:03:28.810
was Hugh Jackman who played the guy who was pretending

00:03:28.810 --> 00:03:32.960
to be Neil Diamond. But Neil was very happy about

00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.020
it. He said, I love the movie. I want them to

00:03:35.020 --> 00:03:38.300
make another one too. That's cool. Good. But

00:03:38.300 --> 00:03:41.259
another comment that came out is his song Sweet

00:03:41.259 --> 00:03:45.300
Caroline. Apparently it's so overexposed that

00:03:45.300 --> 00:03:48.639
a lot of people hate it now and actively boo

00:03:48.639 --> 00:03:51.039
it when it plays. You know, I could see that.

00:03:51.099 --> 00:03:53.280
I mean, it's kind of like Freebird. People get

00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:55.180
pissed off when they hear Freebird. Oh, come

00:03:55.180 --> 00:04:00.400
on. I get it. So he understands, but he's really

00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:02.580
sad because he said, that's still one of my favorite

00:04:02.580 --> 00:04:04.979
songs and I love it, I love performing it. And

00:04:04.979 --> 00:04:07.620
it makes me sad that people are just so tired

00:04:07.620 --> 00:04:10.800
of it because it's been overplayed. But yeah,

00:04:10.860 --> 00:04:12.879
it is a really good song. As we discussed last

00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.800
episode, it's a song about sex. Yeah, but everybody

00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:18.439
thought they floated the rumor probably that

00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:20.620
it was about Caroline Kennedy. So everyone could

00:04:20.620 --> 00:04:23.100
have a nice warm feeling in their belly and go,

00:04:23.180 --> 00:04:27.370
oh, it's about the daughter of the... Let's see,

00:04:27.389 --> 00:04:30.550
Caroline would be... Would that be JFK's daughter?

00:04:30.790 --> 00:04:32.490
Yeah, I would think so. That's right, Jackie

00:04:32.490 --> 00:04:35.810
and... yeah, okay. Or no, it was probably his

00:04:35.810 --> 00:04:38.269
sister. Sister, that's what I thought, okay,

00:04:38.389 --> 00:04:41.269
yeah. Yeah, because JFK's kids were really little.

00:04:42.230 --> 00:04:46.269
Okay. Let's see, oh, I was watching The Big Bang

00:04:46.269 --> 00:04:50.810
Theory the other day. And I know they edit some

00:04:50.810 --> 00:04:54.689
episodes. They air, after the first airing, they'll

00:04:54.689 --> 00:04:56.389
go back and edit some stuff, and you'll never

00:04:56.389 --> 00:04:59.050
see that part again. Like, the very first episode

00:04:59.050 --> 00:05:02.250
of The Big Bang Theory, if you watch it now,

00:05:02.470 --> 00:05:04.949
it starts with Leonard and Sheldon walking up

00:05:04.949 --> 00:05:06.689
the stairs to their apartment and talking about

00:05:06.689 --> 00:05:09.490
stuff. But that wasn't the original opening scene

00:05:09.490 --> 00:05:11.870
for the pilot episode. The original opening scene

00:05:11.870 --> 00:05:14.629
was Leonard and Sheldon sitting in the lobby

00:05:14.629 --> 00:05:18.449
of a sperm donation center, planning to donate

00:05:18.449 --> 00:05:21.589
their sperm. and talking about it and talking

00:05:21.589 --> 00:05:24.910
about other things. That only aired on the very

00:05:24.910 --> 00:05:27.189
first showing of that pilot episode, and it has

00:05:27.189 --> 00:05:30.529
been deleted ever since. Do you have any observations

00:05:30.529 --> 00:05:33.009
on that? Do you think it was too risque being

00:05:33.009 --> 00:05:35.509
in a sperm thing? They said, we need to cut this

00:05:35.509 --> 00:05:38.170
for family stuff. Yeah, especially if you've

00:05:38.170 --> 00:05:41.209
seen the original pilot for Big Bang Theory where

00:05:41.209 --> 00:05:44.810
they cast someone else as Penny, and she was

00:05:44.810 --> 00:05:48.110
more of an out -of -control drunk. who was getting

00:05:48.110 --> 00:05:51.949
into trouble constantly. And Leonard and Sheldon

00:05:51.949 --> 00:05:54.810
were a lot more streetwise and sarcastic and

00:05:54.810 --> 00:05:57.689
snarky. And it was a very much more adult -themed

00:05:57.689 --> 00:06:02.709
show. And I think that sperm bank scene was a

00:06:02.709 --> 00:06:05.810
holdover from that kind of an idea. But then

00:06:05.810 --> 00:06:07.870
as the show progressed, they realized, no, this

00:06:07.870 --> 00:06:10.250
is kind of more family -friendly, so they went

00:06:10.250 --> 00:06:12.509
back and chopped that part out and never put

00:06:12.509 --> 00:06:16.490
it back in. Wow. Maybe if you buy the DVD version

00:06:16.490 --> 00:06:19.430
or something, you might see it, but you'll never

00:06:19.430 --> 00:06:22.089
see it air on TV again. And even in the streaming

00:06:22.089 --> 00:06:23.990
services, when I've been able to stream it, it's

00:06:23.990 --> 00:06:26.569
not there either. It's like they're trying to

00:06:26.569 --> 00:06:30.389
erase it from existence. But I remember it. But

00:06:30.389 --> 00:06:33.490
what I saw just the other day was there was a

00:06:33.490 --> 00:06:37.350
brief storyline where the Leonard character had

00:06:37.350 --> 00:06:40.769
dated Penny and then stopped and then was having

00:06:40.769 --> 00:06:47.279
casual sex with a... A character played by Sarah

00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:50.579
Gilbert? Melissa Gilbert? Yeah. I think Sarah.

00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:53.000
Sarah, yeah. The one that was on... Melissa's

00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:55.540
little house was... Okay, yeah, this is Sarah.

00:06:55.639 --> 00:07:03.360
Yeah, yeah, Sarah. And the scene was... It's

00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:07.000
the next morning. The girl's already left. And

00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:11.560
Penny is talking to Leonard. And smiling, she

00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:16.110
says... So I hear you and the character's name

00:07:16.110 --> 00:07:18.529
is Leslie. I hear you and Leslie hooked up last

00:07:18.529 --> 00:07:22.170
night. And while she was saying you and Leslie

00:07:22.170 --> 00:07:24.889
hooked up last night, the whole scene jerked

00:07:24.889 --> 00:07:28.110
slightly. Because a little piece was cut out.

00:07:28.430 --> 00:07:31.649
And I noticed her lips did not match hooked up.

00:07:34.250 --> 00:07:37.329
Oh. So they edited, I think initially she said

00:07:37.329 --> 00:07:40.389
had sex or did the nasty or something a little

00:07:40.389 --> 00:07:43.129
more. Okay, okay, so then they. They went back

00:07:43.129 --> 00:07:46.089
and sanitized it to hook it up. Just like they

00:07:46.089 --> 00:07:49.310
sanitized the sperm bank. Uh -huh. Okay. So,

00:07:49.310 --> 00:07:52.449
and the last time I saw that episode, it wasn't

00:07:52.449 --> 00:07:57.290
like that. But they're continuing to go back

00:07:57.290 --> 00:08:00.069
and re -sanitize. I think it's at the behest

00:08:00.069 --> 00:08:03.459
of the advertisers. Because it's a syndication.

00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:07.839
They get Procter & Gamble and stuff. So they're

00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:11.000
continuing to edit. But the odd thing is most

00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:13.300
people aren't going to notice that. And everyone's

00:08:13.300 --> 00:08:14.819
going to think, well, this is the way it always

00:08:14.819 --> 00:08:17.420
has been. And that's how they change your history.

00:08:17.879 --> 00:08:20.600
That's how they erase your past and make you

00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:24.879
doubt yourself. I listened to our very first

00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.420
all -in podcast with you joining us. This could

00:08:28.420 --> 00:08:31.089
be a Sunday night thing, right? Yeah. And you're

00:08:31.089 --> 00:08:34.070
talking about how they erased parts of an article.

00:08:34.690 --> 00:08:38.149
Yep. In just an hour, you came back, you still

00:08:38.149 --> 00:08:40.590
had it highlighted, and they took out some right

00:08:40.590 --> 00:08:42.590
there. And the weird thing, it was the exact

00:08:42.590 --> 00:08:45.649
same link. And it showed I'd already clicked

00:08:45.649 --> 00:08:48.149
the link. And normally I would trust that to

00:08:48.149 --> 00:08:50.429
take me back to exactly what I saw before. But

00:08:50.429 --> 00:08:53.179
now, no, it doesn't. It can be something completely

00:08:53.179 --> 00:08:55.639
different, but it still acts like that's the

00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:57.519
same link that you clicked. Yeah, so they can

00:08:57.519 --> 00:09:00.080
erase any fucking thing at any time they want.

00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:03.820
And it makes me a little more nervous about sending

00:09:03.820 --> 00:09:06.279
a link to somebody because who knows what that

00:09:06.279 --> 00:09:08.399
link could change into by the time they click

00:09:08.399 --> 00:09:11.899
on it and look at it. That's true. Yeah. So the

00:09:11.899 --> 00:09:15.019
control is out of our hands, I believe. I think

00:09:15.019 --> 00:09:19.419
you're right. So interesting about Big Bang Theory.

00:09:19.860 --> 00:09:26.259
Very much so. Okay. Is that it on that? That

00:09:26.259 --> 00:09:31.620
was it. Okay. All right. Oh, number one. Hey,

00:09:31.740 --> 00:09:34.200
pause for a second, then we'll go into something

00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:36.779
of mine. All right. We had some little inside

00:09:36.779 --> 00:09:39.500
stuff there that you guys cannot hear. Yep. Yeah,

00:09:39.500 --> 00:09:42.299
and you won't hear ever. Secret podcast stuff.

00:09:42.500 --> 00:09:45.000
Yes. I think I'm going to go into something kind

00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:48.259
of fun here. Sure. Okay. It's a Raid by Ozzy

00:09:48.259 --> 00:09:51.309
Osbourne. It was on Ordinary Band. And it was

00:09:51.309 --> 00:09:54.009
Andrew Watt, his producer on that album, suggested

00:09:54.009 --> 00:09:58.809
when he helped him work with Post Malone and

00:09:58.809 --> 00:10:00.730
all that, you know, and he was like, you know,

00:10:00.809 --> 00:10:05.870
he told It's a Raid was a duet with Post Malone.

00:10:05.870 --> 00:10:08.190
Well, he was featuring Post Malone on the song,

00:10:08.210 --> 00:10:10.649
but it was actually a Post Malone song featuring

00:10:10.649 --> 00:10:14.549
Ozzy, but it kind of, the revisionist history

00:10:14.549 --> 00:10:17.950
have it the other way around. So, okay, so the...

00:10:19.620 --> 00:10:23.000
It's a Raid was actually off of a story that

00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:27.100
he told both of them. And they're like, we need

00:10:27.100 --> 00:10:28.820
to tell it, you know, you need to tell that story.

00:10:28.940 --> 00:10:31.419
So here's what it's about. It's a Raid was actually

00:10:31.419 --> 00:10:34.179
off of something that actually happened. I spoke,

00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:36.519
I brushed around the edges of this, but this

00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:39.340
is the official story of what happened. Okay.

00:10:39.779 --> 00:10:43.460
It was based on a 1972 incident where a high

00:10:43.460 --> 00:10:46.919
on cocaine Aussie accidentally triggered a silent

00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:49.960
security alarm. at the Bel Air Mansion while

00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:53.279
recording Black Sabbath Volume 4. Thinking it

00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:55.659
was an air conditioning button, he called police,

00:10:56.000 --> 00:11:02.179
leading to a panic drug fuel cleanup. Oh, that's

00:11:02.179 --> 00:11:05.360
so Ozzy. Oh, I know. In 1972, while renting a

00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:08.200
house for recording, a heavily intoxicated Ozzy

00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:11.399
felt hot and pressed a wall button, mistakenly

00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:13.360
summoning the police to a house filled with drugs.

00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:16.340
The reaction was, realizing the mistake, Ozzy

00:11:16.340 --> 00:11:18.860
yelled, it's a rape, grabbed a large bowl of

00:11:18.860 --> 00:11:21.340
cocaine, and hid in a bathroom where he proceeded

00:11:21.340 --> 00:11:23.399
to ingest the drugs to hide from the police.

00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:27.679
Oh, that's hilarious. Oh, it is. And the police

00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:30.059
found no burglary, deemed it a false alarm, and

00:11:30.059 --> 00:11:32.399
left, despite Ozzy being gacked to the grills.

00:11:32.779 --> 00:11:35.039
But you know, as long as the drugs are in your

00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:38.299
system, it's legal. Yeah, it's legal. I mean,

00:11:38.299 --> 00:11:41.159
if you're holding the heroin, they can bust you.

00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:43.840
but after it's injected into your system, eh,

00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:47.299
nothing they can do. Nope. Not unless you're

00:11:47.299 --> 00:11:50.940
trying to drive a car or something. The song

00:11:50.940 --> 00:11:53.480
was created because producer Andrew Watt thought

00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:56.539
the story was hilarious and encouraged turning

00:11:56.539 --> 00:12:00.279
the experience and capturing the chaotic, frantic

00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:03.419
injury of the moment into a song. It was released

00:12:03.419 --> 00:12:07.600
on the 2020 album Ordinary Man. Wow. Yeah, isn't

00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:12.240
that something? I finally got to the full story.

00:12:12.379 --> 00:12:14.600
I downloaded it a while back and I kept forgetting

00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:18.200
to bring it. So I love that. I love stuff like

00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:19.820
that. That's so great that he turned it into

00:12:19.820 --> 00:12:22.580
a song. Yeah. Or it made it to the album. I mean,

00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:24.279
it'd be one thing if he played it live and it

00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:25.980
never made it to an album. That'd be good enough.

00:12:26.059 --> 00:12:28.559
But it actually got onto an album, which is awesome.

00:12:28.820 --> 00:12:31.279
You've got me as Ozzy and Alice never toured

00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:33.159
together. That does seem strange. They're great

00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:36.379
friends. They really admired each other's work

00:12:36.379 --> 00:12:40.960
and each other's... Stage show. Stage show. He

00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:43.659
toured with Marilyn Manson. He toured with Motley

00:12:43.659 --> 00:12:47.279
Crue. Yeah. He's toured with a number of other

00:12:47.279 --> 00:12:50.820
people. Megan Hith. Yeah, why never Ozzy? I don't

00:12:50.820 --> 00:12:53.700
know. That is weird that it never happened. Can't

00:12:53.700 --> 00:12:56.240
happen now. No, no, not going to happen now at

00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:00.379
all. Although the good thing is Alice seems to

00:13:00.379 --> 00:13:02.500
be doing pretty well. His health is good. Yep,

00:13:02.539 --> 00:13:05.580
yep. He is doing his final farewell kind of thing.

00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:11.299
But that's for... I guess him and his show and

00:13:11.299 --> 00:13:17.460
his band with Nita and Tommy and Roxy is normal.

00:13:17.740 --> 00:13:20.919
But the stuff he's doing with the surviving members

00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:24.980
of his first band, Michael, Bruce, Dennis Dunaway,

00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:26.720
and Neil Smith, I think he's going to continue

00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:29.230
doing that. Yeah, Neil Smith went into football.

00:13:29.230 --> 00:13:31.110
That's where you know him from later. He went

00:13:31.110 --> 00:13:33.230
into football. Yeah, played for the Chiefs and

00:13:33.230 --> 00:13:37.210
the Broncos. Yeah. He went from a 6 '5", blonde,

00:13:37.450 --> 00:13:41.429
white guy down to a 6 '3", very heavyset black

00:13:41.429 --> 00:13:44.090
man. Yes, it was crazy, the transition. Yeah,

00:13:44.129 --> 00:13:46.389
and now he's back to being the Platinum God again,

00:13:46.509 --> 00:13:48.769
which is what he calls himself, the Platinum

00:13:48.769 --> 00:13:51.570
God. Does he really? No ego there. No, not at

00:13:51.570 --> 00:13:56.220
all. I think that's the name of his book. He's

00:13:56.220 --> 00:13:59.500
fucking funny. He used to write fan letters to

00:13:59.500 --> 00:14:04.940
himself to get them published in magazines. Hey,

00:14:05.059 --> 00:14:11.620
self -promotion, man. Whatever it takes. I saw

00:14:11.620 --> 00:14:16.220
this morning that the song What's Up by Four

00:14:16.220 --> 00:14:20.179
Non Blondes. Yeah. That has been voted the number

00:14:20.179 --> 00:14:22.960
one rock and roll song by a female artist of

00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.320
all time. And it's important to note that this

00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:28.860
is the only song of note from Four Non -Blogs.

00:14:28.980 --> 00:14:32.299
And it's also known as What's Going On. Yeah.

00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:34.759
Hey, hey, what's going on? Yeah. It's exactly

00:14:34.759 --> 00:14:39.000
three chords. Yes. In the same order over and

00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:41.700
over through the whole song. Very catchy. Very

00:14:41.700 --> 00:14:44.399
catchy, very simple. But not the greatest female

00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:47.639
song of all time. No. But that's what Spotify

00:14:47.639 --> 00:14:51.960
says. Spotify has declared it. So here's the

00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.480
first point. When you hear, oh, it's been voted

00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:59.399
the number one, okay, says who? And it's just

00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:02.299
Spotify. Well, I told you about the AI Spotify.

00:15:02.379 --> 00:15:05.379
The guy at work listens to the AI -created DJ

00:15:05.379 --> 00:15:08.340
that Spotify has. I think it's a premium service,

00:15:08.559 --> 00:15:13.080
I imagine. So the only artist, he listens to

00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:17.080
R &B and rap and stuff like that. The only artist

00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:22.340
that this AI DJ will ever mention is Kendrick

00:15:22.340 --> 00:15:24.700
Lamar. The only one he mentions by name? The

00:15:24.700 --> 00:15:26.879
only one he mentions by name. All the rest of

00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.419
them is just, he just, like, that was so -and

00:15:29.419 --> 00:15:32.059
-so. He didn't say the name of them. He just

00:15:32.059 --> 00:15:34.960
said, let's say the song was called Two Feet.

00:15:34.980 --> 00:15:38.100
Yeah. Two Feet. And he goes on to something else.

00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:41.700
Yeah. He did not mention the artist and when

00:15:41.700 --> 00:15:44.019
it came out. Yeah. Unless it was Kendrick Lamar.

00:15:44.179 --> 00:15:46.190
Then he goes, that was... Kendrick Lamar, and

00:15:46.190 --> 00:15:48.529
that's off his latest effort, So -and -So. You

00:15:48.529 --> 00:15:53.110
can find that on EMI Records under... It's getting

00:15:53.110 --> 00:15:55.309
kind of obvious now, isn't it? Yeah, who's paying?

00:15:55.570 --> 00:15:57.980
Yeah. The other ones didn't pay. The only one

00:15:57.980 --> 00:16:00.039
that paid was Kendrick Lamar, so therefore the

00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:02.759
guy mentioned him every time. And they played

00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:04.919
more of him than anything else, too. And that's

00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:07.039
kind of embarrassing in a way because it makes

00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:09.620
it very obvious that it's pay for play. Well,

00:16:09.700 --> 00:16:12.580
the problem is not everybody is as observant

00:16:12.580 --> 00:16:14.500
as you and I. You wouldn't have noticed it, too.

00:16:14.659 --> 00:16:17.059
But you and I are more observant than a lot of

00:16:17.059 --> 00:16:19.940
people I've noticed. And not only that, but we're

00:16:19.940 --> 00:16:22.879
more willing to look behind and say, okay, this

00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:25.759
isn't all nice and happy and just for us. It's

00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:29.230
not. There's something sinister and there's an

00:16:29.230 --> 00:16:31.389
ulterior motive here. We've been looking behind

00:16:31.389 --> 00:16:33.269
the curtain our whole life, and we're not about

00:16:33.269 --> 00:16:35.690
to stop now. But most people, it's like, oh,

00:16:35.690 --> 00:16:37.850
you want to do this because you like me? Okay,

00:16:38.009 --> 00:16:42.210
I believe you. All right. Hope that works out

00:16:42.210 --> 00:16:47.350
for you. So anyway, Spotify says that they did

00:16:47.350 --> 00:16:49.850
research, they looked at downloads, they looked

00:16:49.850 --> 00:16:52.950
at shares and likes and plays and blah, blah,

00:16:52.970 --> 00:16:56.929
blah. But the odd thing is, there's a different

00:16:56.929 --> 00:16:59.669
group called the American Society for the Preservation

00:16:59.669 --> 00:17:03.350
of Rock Music. And they say their number one

00:17:03.350 --> 00:17:07.289
song by a female artist or group is I Love Rock

00:17:07.289 --> 00:17:10.450
and Roll by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. To

00:17:10.450 --> 00:17:12.349
me, I find it a little bit more acceptable, and

00:17:12.349 --> 00:17:14.990
here's why. Because it's been used everywhere.

00:17:15.549 --> 00:17:20.009
All different types of sporting events. Music

00:17:20.009 --> 00:17:23.950
events, commercials, that thing is universal

00:17:23.950 --> 00:17:28.309
and that riff is universal. And the American

00:17:28.309 --> 00:17:30.470
Society for Preservation said that they looked

00:17:30.470 --> 00:17:35.170
at what you're saying, use in TV, shows, commercials,

00:17:35.529 --> 00:17:39.670
movies, just this total impact in pop culture

00:17:39.670 --> 00:17:44.289
everywhere. Spotify was basically going by people

00:17:44.289 --> 00:17:47.329
who own Spotify and what they listen to. Plus

00:17:47.329 --> 00:17:50.069
the fact that Spotify just said they did all

00:17:50.069 --> 00:17:52.549
this research, which, of course, they didn't

00:17:52.549 --> 00:17:55.190
spend a single penny on this. They just decided

00:17:55.190 --> 00:17:57.849
who was going to be the winner and announced

00:17:57.849 --> 00:18:00.109
it and pretended they did all the research and

00:18:00.109 --> 00:18:03.069
stuff to sell the idea. But why would Spotify

00:18:03.069 --> 00:18:06.730
spend any time and money coming up with a real

00:18:06.730 --> 00:18:09.769
list when they could just publish a list that's

00:18:09.769 --> 00:18:12.049
exactly the way they want it to and just do that?

00:18:12.150 --> 00:18:15.039
Which is, of course, exactly what they did. And

00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:17.299
that's, of course, exactly what I did. Because

00:18:17.299 --> 00:18:19.779
there is no American Society for the Preservation

00:18:19.779 --> 00:18:23.660
of Rock Music, I made it up. They didn't exist.

00:18:23.819 --> 00:18:26.299
They never voted on anything. But I made it sound

00:18:26.299 --> 00:18:28.579
pretty real, didn't I? You did. That's how easy

00:18:28.579 --> 00:18:31.519
it is to just bullshit somebody. There's probably

00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:33.319
a bunch of people out there who say, oh, okay,

00:18:33.420 --> 00:18:36.019
I guess that's the new song then. The truth is,

00:18:36.019 --> 00:18:38.319
is if you didn't tell me this ahead of time,

00:18:38.420 --> 00:18:42.930
I would have been like, okay. Yeah. Yeah. I can

00:18:42.930 --> 00:18:45.250
make up just as much bullshit as Spotify can.

00:18:46.569 --> 00:18:49.029
Hey, we're getting our picture taken. Yes. All

00:18:49.029 --> 00:18:52.849
righty. All right. So, anyhow, go ahead. A little

00:18:52.849 --> 00:18:55.809
caveat there that, you know, and they published

00:18:55.809 --> 00:18:58.410
this little happy article. Oh, boy, four non

00:18:58.410 --> 00:19:00.569
-blondes. It's the number one song. Blah, blah,

00:19:00.569 --> 00:19:04.869
blah. Well, the truth behind it is Spotify wants

00:19:04.869 --> 00:19:07.609
to pander to a certain group of people and get

00:19:07.609 --> 00:19:12.380
them to become... subscribers. So they printed

00:19:12.380 --> 00:19:14.700
up this list to tell people what they want to

00:19:14.700 --> 00:19:17.220
hear to try to get them to subscribe to Spotify.

00:19:17.720 --> 00:19:21.000
And that's the only reason that article was ever

00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:23.480
published in the first place is because there's

00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:26.440
something in it for Spotify. I got the microphone

00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:29.819
on that one. Anyhow, yeah, no, you're right.

00:19:31.539 --> 00:19:34.059
Please, everyone, just take a minute to think,

00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:37.539
why do they want me to believe this? Just ask

00:19:37.539 --> 00:19:39.619
yourself that. Why do they want me to believe

00:19:39.619 --> 00:19:44.450
this? That'll save you some heartache, let me

00:19:44.450 --> 00:19:50.529
tell you. Yep. Hang on, I'm going to post it

00:19:50.529 --> 00:19:56.730
here so people know we're down here. I've got

00:19:56.730 --> 00:19:59.549
a list of musicians who committed some pretty

00:19:59.549 --> 00:20:03.890
horrible crimes. Okay. This doesn't go into great

00:20:03.890 --> 00:20:07.609
detail about the crimes, but it's all something

00:20:07.609 --> 00:20:10.660
that is part of public... Public record, you'll

00:20:10.660 --> 00:20:13.420
look up. Our first one on the list is legendary

00:20:13.420 --> 00:20:18.420
music producer Phil Spector. Oh, yeah. Yes. He

00:20:18.420 --> 00:20:21.380
was convicted of the second -degree murder in

00:20:21.380 --> 00:20:26.299
2009 for shooting actress Lana Clarkson. And

00:20:26.299 --> 00:20:28.579
I think she was living in a guest house on his

00:20:28.579 --> 00:20:31.579
property at the time. And he went in and shot

00:20:31.579 --> 00:20:34.220
her. And then he tried to pretend he didn't.

00:20:34.299 --> 00:20:37.940
He tried to hide it. And, yeah, he was convicted.

00:20:41.320 --> 00:20:46.380
Here's a really good one. Vard Vikernes, who

00:20:46.380 --> 00:20:49.099
went by the name Burzum, or maybe that was the

00:20:49.099 --> 00:20:51.279
band he was in, I don't know. Norwegian black

00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:55.579
metal musician convicted of murdering a bandmate

00:20:55.579 --> 00:20:59.619
named Euronymous, who was Boystein Arsef, in

00:20:59.619 --> 00:21:06.859
1993, and involved in church burnings. Wow. Apparently,

00:21:06.900 --> 00:21:11.119
he showed up... This Varg guy went to Euronymous'

00:21:11.339 --> 00:21:14.900
place just to talk to him. But he brought a very

00:21:14.900 --> 00:21:19.279
long, sharp knife with him to just talk. And

00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:23.140
he wound up stabbing the guy 23 times, most of

00:21:23.140 --> 00:21:28.539
them in the back. Okay. But even though he was

00:21:28.539 --> 00:21:30.480
convicted of murdering, he claimed it was self

00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:34.720
-defense. I stabbed him in the back 20 times

00:21:34.720 --> 00:21:39.500
because it's self -defense. Now, the guy he stabbed

00:21:39.500 --> 00:21:42.779
to death, Euronymous, he wasn't such a great

00:21:42.779 --> 00:21:47.099
guy either because he was famous for coming to

00:21:47.099 --> 00:21:49.720
band practice one day and finding that the drummer

00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:53.599
had committed suicide. So the first thing he

00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:57.000
did was he staged the scene to be more photographic

00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:00.059
and then took a bunch of pictures and then used

00:22:00.059 --> 00:22:02.920
the pictures to try to make merchandise to sell.

00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.019
The actual dead body of his bandmate, who was

00:22:07.019 --> 00:22:10.079
supposed to be his friend, and he took pictures

00:22:10.079 --> 00:22:13.200
and printed it on merchandise. Oh, my gosh. What

00:22:13.200 --> 00:22:18.740
a horrible person. That is... The Norwegian black

00:22:18.740 --> 00:22:21.000
metal scene is pretty ugly, apparently. Oh, jeez,

00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:24.940
yes. Oh, read all the crimes that are committed

00:22:24.940 --> 00:22:29.160
in that genre. Oh, yeah. It's like a bunch of

00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:32.720
really... horrible people that are in that industry.

00:22:33.039 --> 00:22:35.980
It really is. I'm sure some of it is just PR

00:22:35.980 --> 00:22:39.200
to get you excited, but probably half of it actually

00:22:39.200 --> 00:22:43.220
happened. Yeah, probably half of it. Next up,

00:22:43.319 --> 00:22:46.440
Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols. Oh, yeah. Who

00:22:46.440 --> 00:22:49.079
did not know how to play bass. He was picked

00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:51.460
because he had the right look, and there's exactly

00:22:51.460 --> 00:22:55.500
one... He taught Nicky Six. Yeah, he did. There's

00:22:55.500 --> 00:22:58.240
exactly one Sex Pistols song where he actually

00:22:58.240 --> 00:23:01.119
played bass on. The rest of the time it was somebody

00:23:01.119 --> 00:23:03.039
else filling in for him. Oh, just like Nikki

00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:08.359
Sixx. Allegedly. Anyway, he was accused of stabbing

00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:11.240
his girlfriend Nancy Spungen to death. He claims

00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:16.680
he can't remember. Before trial, he died of a

00:23:16.680 --> 00:23:21.460
heroin overdose. And the prevailing wisdom is,

00:23:21.619 --> 00:23:24.119
even though they can't prove it, that his mother

00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:26.660
helped him OD because she knew he couldn't handle

00:23:26.660 --> 00:23:29.500
going to prison. So she helped him kill himself

00:23:29.500 --> 00:23:32.119
by heroin, death by heroin, rather than go to

00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:38.059
jail. Yeah. So, yeah, what a mom. Yeah. Tim Lambesis.

00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:40.640
I would go out on a limb and say his mom was

00:23:40.640 --> 00:23:43.200
probably most of his problem. Probably so, yeah.

00:23:44.059 --> 00:23:47.200
She was definitely just fine with him using heroin.

00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:52.339
Yeah. Tim Lambesis of As I Lay a Dying. pleaded

00:23:52.339 --> 00:23:54.680
guilty to solicitation of murder for attempting

00:23:54.680 --> 00:23:57.279
to hire a hitman to kill his estranged wife.

00:23:57.460 --> 00:23:59.400
And that was more recent, too. Yeah, that was

00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:04.720
pretty recent. It's like, dude. Pay the alimony.

00:24:05.180 --> 00:24:08.380
Don't go to jail. You're in a rock band. Pay

00:24:08.380 --> 00:24:10.900
the alimony. Or don't. You're in a rock band.

00:24:10.940 --> 00:24:12.779
You're not expected to. You're in a rock band.

00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:16.779
Yeah. Yeah. Here is a guy named Bard Faust Eiffen.

00:24:18.019 --> 00:24:20.559
Again, the Norwegian black metal scene. He should

00:24:20.559 --> 00:24:22.359
have killed his mom for naming him that. Yeah,

00:24:22.380 --> 00:24:24.480
really. He was in the band Emperor. He's the

00:24:24.480 --> 00:24:27.420
drummer of the band Emperor. He stabbed a man

00:24:27.420 --> 00:24:29.700
to death in a park in Lillehammer, Norway in

00:24:29.700 --> 00:24:34.099
1992. Now, the original article specifically

00:24:34.099 --> 00:24:36.619
mentioned that it was a gay man who he stabbed

00:24:36.619 --> 00:24:40.259
to death, but did not go as far as to say it

00:24:40.259 --> 00:24:43.900
was a hate crime. Why would you specify that

00:24:43.900 --> 00:24:45.819
the man he killed was gay unless you're trying

00:24:45.819 --> 00:24:49.359
to make the point that it was a hate crime? Yeah.

00:24:49.779 --> 00:24:52.940
So I left out that part, or I can include it

00:24:52.940 --> 00:24:55.480
and say he stabbed a gay man to death in a hate

00:24:55.480 --> 00:24:58.019
crime in Lillehammer. I don't know if they were

00:24:58.019 --> 00:24:59.900
ever able to prove that it was a hate crime.

00:25:00.099 --> 00:25:01.819
How about an alleged? Yeah, alleged hate crime.

00:25:02.480 --> 00:25:05.660
So anyway, he didn't stab a man to death. The

00:25:05.660 --> 00:25:07.759
man was gay, but apparently they weren't able

00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:09.819
to prove that it was an anti -gay hate crime.

00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:13.099
I think that's the way they had to name it, but

00:25:13.099 --> 00:25:15.960
we'll go ahead and say allegedly it was a hate

00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:19.059
crime. Allegedly, yeah. And we'll let you draw

00:25:19.059 --> 00:25:23.220
your own conclusions, so yeah. Lisa Left Eye

00:25:23.220 --> 00:25:28.140
Lopez. Oh, yeah. Go ahead. A member of TLC who

00:25:28.140 --> 00:25:30.339
burned down the house of her boyfriend. And she

00:25:30.339 --> 00:25:33.359
died, yeah. That would be the football player

00:25:33.359 --> 00:25:37.019
Rice. Andre Rison. Yep, Bad Moon Rison. Yep.

00:25:37.630 --> 00:25:39.910
But, yeah, she died early. She died young with

00:25:39.910 --> 00:25:41.890
something else. In a car crash. I think that

00:25:41.890 --> 00:25:47.089
was it, yeah. In Dominican, maybe? That sounds

00:25:47.089 --> 00:25:47.809
familiar, yeah. I think it was a certain place

00:25:47.809 --> 00:25:52.289
in Ventura. Orlando, Yodano Ventura passed away.

00:25:52.470 --> 00:25:56.450
Yeah. In a car on those roads going too fast.

00:25:56.730 --> 00:26:01.390
Yeah. But Lisa Left Eye Lopez was actually filmed

00:26:01.390 --> 00:26:05.250
dying. Oh, gosh. Because someone was filming

00:26:05.250 --> 00:26:07.630
them when they had their wreck. Oh, wow. With

00:26:07.630 --> 00:26:10.650
her phone. And you hear a bunch of screaming

00:26:10.650 --> 00:26:14.170
and just stuff, you know, shoes, bodies, all

00:26:14.170 --> 00:26:17.069
that stuff. Wow. And Lisa was left lifeless.

00:26:17.569 --> 00:26:21.410
Yeah. That's a shame. Yeah, it is. And as far

00:26:21.410 --> 00:26:25.289
as I remember, she wasn't trying to burn Andre

00:26:25.289 --> 00:26:27.710
Rison's whole house down. No, no, no. She set

00:26:27.710 --> 00:26:29.910
a small fire and it got out of control. It got

00:26:29.910 --> 00:26:32.230
out of control. She was trying to make a statement.

00:26:32.289 --> 00:26:36.220
It was like, oops! Really, really badly. Well,

00:26:36.259 --> 00:26:38.859
speaking of fire, our next one is Johnny Cash.

00:26:39.140 --> 00:26:43.500
Oh, yeah. In 1965, he set fire to the Los Padres

00:26:43.500 --> 00:26:47.000
National Forest in California with a truck, destroying

00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:50.700
hundreds of acres and killing 49 endangered condors.

00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:57.630
I didn't know this. Oh, wow. He was Mr. Drug

00:26:57.630 --> 00:27:00.490
Use back then. I mean, he was so out of control.

00:27:00.750 --> 00:27:03.289
By the way, I was asked, and so was Rob, and

00:27:03.289 --> 00:27:05.309
probably you too, what would be the best punk

00:27:05.309 --> 00:27:07.829
band name you could come up with? Mine was Johnny

00:27:07.829 --> 00:27:10.690
Gash. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, that's a good

00:27:10.690 --> 00:27:13.890
one. What do you listen to? Johnny Gash. Oh,

00:27:13.970 --> 00:27:18.170
wow. Who is that? Take a listen. Anyhow, go ahead.

00:27:19.009 --> 00:27:21.170
You can call yourself Anita Bryant's Breasts.

00:27:23.750 --> 00:27:26.819
Look up Anita Bryant. I think she was discovered

00:27:26.819 --> 00:27:30.039
by... I just like the name of it. It sounds great.

00:27:30.299 --> 00:27:32.200
I think she was discovered by Howard Hughes,

00:27:32.519 --> 00:27:35.140
who had a thing for brunettes with giant boobs.

00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:39.859
Oh, okay. Okay. Yeah, there was someone else

00:27:39.859 --> 00:27:43.359
that he... I remember in the 60s and early 70s,

00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:47.259
she used to do bra commercials. Yeah, okay. But

00:27:47.259 --> 00:27:49.319
she was in a couple of Howard Hughes' films.

00:27:50.180 --> 00:27:53.660
Yeah, yeah, he was... The quotation was he burst

00:27:53.660 --> 00:27:56.319
into the studio's office saying, She was the

00:27:56.319 --> 00:27:58.259
dental assistant. She had just cleaned his teeth.

00:27:58.480 --> 00:28:00.240
And he said, you won't believe it. I just found

00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:02.200
the girl with the biggest knockers I've ever

00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:05.400
seen. Oh, Jane Russell. Jane Russell. Yeah, that

00:28:05.400 --> 00:28:08.359
was her name, Jane Russell. Okay. She got her

00:28:08.359 --> 00:28:10.359
started in movies because she cleaned Howard

00:28:10.359 --> 00:28:13.079
Hughes' teeth and he thought her boobs were pretty.

00:28:13.720 --> 00:28:15.640
They were, you know, as I remember. They were

00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:17.839
pretty big. Anita Bryant's were about that big.

00:28:18.119 --> 00:28:22.619
Okay. And then last on my list is. Kobe's grandma.

00:28:23.059 --> 00:28:27.650
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. And Arthur's a great -grandma.

00:28:27.769 --> 00:28:30.609
No, no, no. Arthur's grandma. Yeah. Kobe's great

00:28:30.609 --> 00:28:33.690
-grandma. Yeah. Google it. Suge Knight, former

00:28:33.690 --> 00:28:36.210
Death Row Records CEO with a long history of

00:28:36.210 --> 00:28:38.450
violent crime, eventually pleading no contest

00:28:38.450 --> 00:28:41.710
of voluntary manslaughter in 2018. He was also

00:28:41.710 --> 00:28:44.730
accused of being a drug dealer and trafficker.

00:28:45.369 --> 00:28:48.839
I don't know. I don't think he was ever. arrested,

00:28:48.900 --> 00:28:50.440
indicted, or whatever, so it was always just

00:28:50.440 --> 00:28:52.700
alleged. It was always alleged, but he was never

00:28:52.700 --> 00:28:57.740
indicted on it, yes. Yeah. So that's criminal

00:28:57.740 --> 00:29:01.799
band members. Then we could segue into worst

00:29:01.799 --> 00:29:05.140
bandmates ever. Okay, then I have some bullet

00:29:05.140 --> 00:29:08.019
points. Do that. All right. Okay, number one,

00:29:08.099 --> 00:29:13.900
Roger Waters. Absolutely. He is known for intense

00:29:13.900 --> 00:29:18.130
conflicts with band members. And he will go to

00:29:18.130 --> 00:29:20.730
the nuclear option right away when he doesn't

00:29:20.730 --> 00:29:26.430
get his way. He considers himself to be Pink

00:29:26.430 --> 00:29:29.529
Floyd and treated the other three guys as hired

00:29:29.529 --> 00:29:31.750
musicians who needed to do what he told them.

00:29:32.809 --> 00:29:35.069
He's the one that they could do without. Yeah,

00:29:35.130 --> 00:29:38.349
yeah. If you didn't have David Gilmour or Nick

00:29:38.349 --> 00:29:42.970
Mason, no fucking way. David Gilmour played a

00:29:42.970 --> 00:29:46.410
lot of Roger Waters' parts on the albums, and

00:29:46.410 --> 00:29:49.109
then Roger would have to learn a simplified version

00:29:49.109 --> 00:29:52.450
to play live. If you're familiar with the song

00:29:52.450 --> 00:29:55.769
One of These Days, it starts out with two bass

00:29:55.769 --> 00:29:58.390
guitars, one in the left speaker and one in the

00:29:58.390 --> 00:30:00.930
right speaker. You can hear the one that's David

00:30:00.930 --> 00:30:04.109
Gilmour because it's good, solid playing, it's

00:30:04.109 --> 00:30:07.369
on time, it's a good -sounding guitar. And then

00:30:07.369 --> 00:30:10.450
the one that's Roger is sloppy. You can hear

00:30:10.450 --> 00:30:12.549
the strings flopping and vibrating. The strings

00:30:12.549 --> 00:30:15.890
sound dirty. He didn't take care of his instrument

00:30:15.890 --> 00:30:19.630
because he just didn't give a shit. That guy

00:30:19.630 --> 00:30:23.049
is so fucked. I mean, it would take us three

00:30:23.049 --> 00:30:24.789
years to go through everything that's wrong.

00:30:25.049 --> 00:30:28.490
Really? Yeah. Next up, we have Richie Blackmore.

00:30:28.950 --> 00:30:32.529
Oh, yeah. Known for micromanaging, being very

00:30:32.529 --> 00:30:36.720
controlling, and... Creating an atmosphere where

00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:39.220
everyone is afraid to do anything for fear he

00:30:39.220 --> 00:30:41.759
might lose his temper. Kind of a walking on eggshells

00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:45.039
environment. And he and Ian Gillen were fucking

00:30:45.039 --> 00:30:48.460
just horrible together. Yeah. Because Ian Gillen

00:30:48.460 --> 00:30:51.660
was pretty much a control freak too. He had Leitzinger

00:30:51.660 --> 00:30:54.279
disease. Yes, he did. And those two together

00:30:54.279 --> 00:30:57.740
did not match. But go ahead. All right. Next

00:30:57.740 --> 00:31:01.740
up we have Keith Moon. His alcoholism and other

00:31:01.740 --> 00:31:06.529
addictions. Coke. prescription pills, amphetamines,

00:31:06.609 --> 00:31:09.630
all sorts of stuff, made it increasingly difficult

00:31:09.630 --> 00:31:12.710
to get any usable drumming out of him. It just

00:31:12.710 --> 00:31:15.890
got harder and harder for albums and tours, and

00:31:15.890 --> 00:31:17.210
it was just, it got to the point. Who was going

00:31:17.210 --> 00:31:19.809
to get rid of Manny Howe before he died? I mean,

00:31:19.809 --> 00:31:22.410
he was just like, he was impossible to work with

00:31:22.410 --> 00:31:25.250
because, you know, at least John Bonham, when

00:31:25.250 --> 00:31:27.839
he showed up, he played. This is true. Yeah,

00:31:27.859 --> 00:31:30.859
but with Keith, they spent as much time trying

00:31:30.859 --> 00:31:33.839
to get usable tracks out of Keith as the whole

00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:36.619
rest of the band combined. Yes, and the problem

00:31:36.619 --> 00:31:39.380
is the stuff with Keith Moon was so much better

00:31:39.380 --> 00:31:42.779
because it was Keith Moon. Yeah. But you couldn't

00:31:42.779 --> 00:31:46.900
keep trying to coax someone to play and be there

00:31:46.900 --> 00:31:52.700
and, you know, so. Yeah. So he was. Hey there,

00:31:52.759 --> 00:31:55.680
Slap Nets. It's time for the Creeps Music News.

00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:29.259
Stay the fuck out of it. Bye -bye. Male Felicia.

00:32:29.420 --> 00:32:33.180
This is Johnny Rohypno. That was your music news.

00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:39.559
And remember, bar chords are bullshit. He was

00:32:39.559 --> 00:32:42.579
very unreliable. He ruined a lot of concerts

00:32:42.579 --> 00:32:45.160
and shows because a lot of those they had to

00:32:45.160 --> 00:32:49.140
play to a backing track because of Pete Townsend's

00:32:49.140 --> 00:32:52.839
recorded. keys and various other things. And

00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:55.259
if he lost time with that backing track, he'd

00:32:55.259 --> 00:32:56.960
just rip the headphones off his head and just

00:32:56.960 --> 00:32:59.759
play whatever the hell he felt like. He has...

00:32:59.759 --> 00:33:06.339
It would just ruin the whole song. Next up we

00:33:06.339 --> 00:33:10.519
have Perry Farrell. He completely... He's another

00:33:10.519 --> 00:33:12.599
guy that you could take three years trying to

00:33:12.599 --> 00:33:14.519
describe what's wrong with him and still not

00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:17.559
even getting on. He torched that complete reunion

00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:21.079
tour with bad behavior and drug use. Yep. Flaking

00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:24.940
out on stage and punching Dave Navarro. Oh, yeah,

00:33:25.000 --> 00:33:27.599
yeah, yeah. I think Dave DeMauro ended up kicking

00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:29.980
his ass though, didn't he? Yep. Which was quite

00:33:29.980 --> 00:33:33.599
satisfying to watch. In fact, the roadies who

00:33:33.599 --> 00:33:35.759
were taking Perry Farrell off stage were also

00:33:35.759 --> 00:33:38.059
punching on him because they hated him too. Everybody

00:33:38.059 --> 00:33:40.799
was, hey, this is my chance to get a few licks

00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:43.619
in on Perry. That's why there'll never be a reunion

00:33:43.619 --> 00:33:46.299
is because of him. They hate him that much. They're

00:33:46.299 --> 00:33:48.619
like, we'd rather make no money than be with

00:33:48.619 --> 00:33:51.200
this idiot. When that blew up the tour, everyone

00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:53.920
lost millions. Millions. And I'm sure a lot of

00:33:53.920 --> 00:33:55.869
people were counting on that money. to help somewhere

00:33:55.869 --> 00:33:57.690
else. Oh, yeah. They'll never get business with

00:33:57.690 --> 00:34:00.150
me. That's it. Perry Farrell sued the band. The

00:34:00.150 --> 00:34:03.170
band's countersued him. In the intervening time,

00:34:03.309 --> 00:34:06.029
they've all come to some sort of agreement and

00:34:06.029 --> 00:34:07.990
arrangement. Everyone's dropped their lawsuits,

00:34:08.170 --> 00:34:10.929
and everyone's talking about, well, let's just

00:34:10.929 --> 00:34:13.429
preserve the legacy of the band and the music

00:34:13.429 --> 00:34:15.530
we have. No one's talking about doing anything

00:34:15.530 --> 00:34:17.750
more together in the future. That's impossible.

00:34:18.030 --> 00:34:21.030
Too much has happened on the hands of Perry Fernald.

00:34:21.070 --> 00:34:23.670
Nobody wants to be next to him. But they are

00:34:23.670 --> 00:34:25.809
trying to preserve the value of what they already

00:34:25.809 --> 00:34:28.269
have recorded. We don't want you to hate the

00:34:28.269 --> 00:34:30.849
band because of him, so let's downplay that part.

00:34:30.929 --> 00:34:33.889
Keep buying all of our past catalog and merchandise

00:34:33.889 --> 00:34:36.610
and stuff. So they're making nice so they can

00:34:36.610 --> 00:34:38.269
try to recoup some of the money that they would

00:34:38.269 --> 00:34:40.070
have gotten on that tour. I've always thought

00:34:40.070 --> 00:34:42.789
that the band was a bit overrated anyhow. Yeah.

00:34:43.699 --> 00:34:46.820
They just came by and like when Errol was searching

00:34:46.820 --> 00:34:49.139
for something besides the glam metal scene was

00:34:49.139 --> 00:34:52.380
dying out. Grunge wasn't quite in yet. So they

00:34:52.380 --> 00:34:55.400
were going more alternative. And then Jane's

00:34:55.400 --> 00:34:58.380
Addiction was like a huge leap. Not very many

00:34:58.380 --> 00:35:02.420
guitars in it really per se. I'm trying to remember

00:35:02.420 --> 00:35:05.000
the drummer's name. Was it Stephen Perkins? Yeah,

00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:07.039
I think so. Because Chad Smith is in the Chili

00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:08.900
Peppers. Yeah, yeah. So I think it's Steve and

00:35:08.900 --> 00:35:10.760
Perkins. But they remind you of each other. They

00:35:10.760 --> 00:35:12.460
do. The playing style is a lot alive. Yeah, there's

00:35:12.460 --> 00:35:16.719
a lot of funk in both of them. Yes. Next up,

00:35:16.739 --> 00:35:19.340
we have Captain Beefheart, whose real name is

00:35:19.340 --> 00:35:23.199
Don Van Vlier. He was kind of a protege of Frank

00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:25.920
Zappa. Even Frank Zappa said he couldn't stand

00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:30.440
him. In one instance... Captain Beefheart threw

00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:32.780
his drummer down a flight of stairs because they

00:35:32.780 --> 00:35:36.960
were arguing over a part in a song. He wouldn't

00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:40.219
let anyone in the band eat, sleep, or even leave

00:35:40.219 --> 00:35:43.139
the house until the songs were just right in

00:35:43.139 --> 00:35:46.619
the way he wanted them. So they were going on

00:35:46.619 --> 00:35:51.139
sleep deprivation, food deprivation, and a completely

00:35:51.139 --> 00:35:54.849
toxic... atmosphere trying to get this song made.

00:35:54.989 --> 00:35:57.150
They came out with an album called Trout Mask

00:35:57.150 --> 00:35:59.610
Replica, which is apparently very influential.

00:36:00.409 --> 00:36:03.050
Not easy to listen to, but apparently very influential.

00:36:03.429 --> 00:36:05.809
So I guess they kind of got what they were looking

00:36:05.809 --> 00:36:09.530
for. But what a horrible human being. It sounds

00:36:09.530 --> 00:36:14.409
like it. You can't leave, can't talk. Yeah. Next

00:36:14.409 --> 00:36:18.050
up we have David Crosby. Oh yeah, yeah. He is

00:36:18.050 --> 00:36:19.989
pretty much known for pissing off absolutely

00:36:19.989 --> 00:36:23.940
everybody who has ever known him. Notorious for

00:36:23.940 --> 00:36:28.860
going out of his way to be an asshole and offensive.

00:36:29.280 --> 00:36:31.280
You could be sitting minding your own business

00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:33.440
and he would come over and pick a fight with

00:36:33.440 --> 00:36:35.860
you to try to wreck your day. That's the kind

00:36:35.860 --> 00:36:39.440
of guy he was. Now he had a near constant addiction

00:36:39.440 --> 00:36:44.690
of freebasing coke. and heroin. Both addictions

00:36:44.690 --> 00:36:47.489
running simultaneously for the majority of his

00:36:47.489 --> 00:36:50.449
musical career. How did he live so long? That's

00:36:50.449 --> 00:36:53.530
the same combination that Layne Staley was on.

00:36:55.090 --> 00:36:57.949
Mostly everybody that does that eventually dies.

00:36:58.349 --> 00:37:01.969
Not like later, but soon. It destroys your body

00:37:01.969 --> 00:37:06.570
so badly. He also took assorted uppers, downers,

00:37:06.590 --> 00:37:08.590
and hallucinogens throughout the years. He was

00:37:08.590 --> 00:37:11.969
always... always on something. They said Layton

00:37:11.969 --> 00:37:13.630
Staley wouldn't have lived anyhow because he

00:37:13.630 --> 00:37:16.610
destroyed himself even if he wouldn't have OD'd.

00:37:17.090 --> 00:37:20.429
Yeah, he destroyed all his organs. Now, Dave

00:37:20.429 --> 00:37:26.150
Crosby did get sober and he was still somewhat

00:37:26.150 --> 00:37:28.150
of an asshole, not quite as much of an asshole.

00:37:28.860 --> 00:37:31.639
But he did hold it together long enough to donate

00:37:31.639 --> 00:37:34.059
sperm for Melissa Etheridge to have a baby. I

00:37:34.059 --> 00:37:36.639
forgot about that. Yeah, he's the sperm donor

00:37:36.639 --> 00:37:39.059
for Melissa Etheridge's baby. And he died, what,

00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:41.760
four years ago? Yeah. Yeah, something like that.

00:37:41.880 --> 00:37:46.320
And for him, it was the effects of cocaine on

00:37:46.320 --> 00:37:48.619
his circulatory system. It basically turns your

00:37:48.619 --> 00:37:51.460
blood vessels into concrete pipe. Yeah. And your

00:37:51.460 --> 00:37:53.440
heart just explodes trying to pump blood through

00:37:53.440 --> 00:37:55.429
them. Yep. Pretty much that's what happened to

00:37:55.429 --> 00:37:57.730
him, too, only he was, like, well into his 70s.

00:37:57.730 --> 00:37:59.849
Wasn't he closer to 80? Yeah, he lived quite

00:37:59.849 --> 00:38:02.750
a long time. The drummer for Toto died of the

00:38:02.750 --> 00:38:05.090
same thing, but he died a lot younger. Quite

00:38:05.090 --> 00:38:07.369
that younger. He did a whole lot more coke. Yeah.

00:38:08.510 --> 00:38:13.409
Okay, David Byrne of the Talking Hits. He freely

00:38:13.409 --> 00:38:16.190
admits that he was a tyrant while he was in the

00:38:16.190 --> 00:38:18.349
Talking Hits. Oh, no, he did, yeah. Yeah, he

00:38:18.349 --> 00:38:20.869
owns it. He's like, yeah, I was a complete jerk,

00:38:20.949 --> 00:38:22.940
complete asshole, yeah. And that's one of the

00:38:22.940 --> 00:38:24.780
reasons he's declared he's not going to ever

00:38:24.780 --> 00:38:27.539
do anything musical again. Yeah. Except recently

00:38:27.539 --> 00:38:29.659
he said, I've changed my mind and I do want to

00:38:29.659 --> 00:38:31.579
do music again. Oh, did he? I didn't know that.

00:38:32.780 --> 00:38:35.199
Like a month ago. I'm sorry, that makes it even

00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:37.659
funnier. Like a month ago, he put out an article

00:38:37.659 --> 00:38:39.679
and said, yeah, music is something I used to

00:38:39.679 --> 00:38:41.940
do when I was younger. I'm over it. I don't want

00:38:41.940 --> 00:38:43.760
to do it anymore. It's not going to happen. And

00:38:43.760 --> 00:38:46.099
now he's like, yeah, I kind of like what Alex

00:38:46.099 --> 00:38:48.739
Van Halen did. I'm retired. I'm done. I'm not

00:38:48.739 --> 00:38:50.400
playing. Oh, Steve Lukather is available? Yeah,

00:38:50.460 --> 00:38:58.199
I'm doing more music. Next up on our list is

00:38:58.199 --> 00:39:01.920
Dave Mustaine. Oh, yeah. Well, he's changed a

00:39:01.920 --> 00:39:04.500
lot now. He's had throat cancer and a lot of

00:39:04.500 --> 00:39:06.659
other things. And he was worse when he was on

00:39:06.659 --> 00:39:10.099
heroin. All kinds of stuff, yeah. Now, he's notorious

00:39:10.099 --> 00:39:13.139
for when he was using, he had a quick and violent

00:39:13.139 --> 00:39:17.679
temper, and he holds grudges forever. He never

00:39:17.679 --> 00:39:23.909
forgets anything. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, next

00:39:23.909 --> 00:39:26.530
one is no surprise, Bret Michaels of Poison.

00:39:26.650 --> 00:39:29.050
Yeah, I got to where I can't stand him for what

00:39:29.050 --> 00:39:32.250
I've read about him. The band members are now

00:39:32.250 --> 00:39:35.110
freely talking about this, and he's been a total

00:39:35.110 --> 00:39:37.690
diva ever since he joined the band, even when

00:39:37.690 --> 00:39:41.090
we were nobody or nothing. They used to hide

00:39:41.090 --> 00:39:42.849
it. They used to not say anything. Now they're

00:39:42.849 --> 00:39:44.769
like, we're never getting back together. Anyhow,

00:39:44.769 --> 00:39:46.989
so fuck it. Just say what you have. Yeah, the

00:39:46.989 --> 00:39:49.769
recent tour, he wrecked that. He threw it completely

00:39:49.769 --> 00:39:52.570
off the rails. It was ready to go. And then he

00:39:52.570 --> 00:39:54.590
says, nope, I want six times more money than

00:39:54.590 --> 00:39:57.889
anybody else makes. And everyone said, fuck you.

00:39:58.110 --> 00:40:02.730
Bye. But even up to this point, when the band

00:40:02.730 --> 00:40:05.309
was big, when they were popular, he insisted

00:40:05.309 --> 00:40:09.469
that he fly. by himself in a private plane while

00:40:09.469 --> 00:40:13.150
the rest of the band went by bus. He would leave

00:40:13.150 --> 00:40:15.449
immediately after the show was over, get whisked

00:40:15.449 --> 00:40:17.949
away by limo to the airport so he could fly ahead

00:40:17.949 --> 00:40:20.949
to the next city. He also insisted on his own

00:40:20.949 --> 00:40:24.010
private rooms in a separate hotel from the rest

00:40:24.010 --> 00:40:25.110
of the band. That was the thing that got me.

00:40:25.369 --> 00:40:28.110
Not only did he want all this other perks, but

00:40:28.110 --> 00:40:30.070
he wanted to be completely away from everyone

00:40:30.070 --> 00:40:32.610
else. Which would indicate to me that he didn't

00:40:32.610 --> 00:40:35.489
like them. Other contempt for his bandmates.

00:40:36.809 --> 00:40:39.590
And we thought C .C. DeVille was the problem.

00:40:40.010 --> 00:40:42.929
No, I know, no, he wasn't. He wasn't. Brent Michaels

00:40:42.929 --> 00:40:45.949
was the dick the whole time. Yeah, it's really

00:40:45.949 --> 00:40:47.789
disheartening, though, about the Mick Mars stuff,

00:40:47.829 --> 00:40:50.489
though. Yeah. Because we were dead set, Nicky

00:40:50.489 --> 00:40:53.489
was like the asshole. But on this, he may be

00:40:53.489 --> 00:40:57.769
an asshole, but on this one... Yeah, Motley Crue

00:40:57.769 --> 00:40:59.889
was completely right the whole time, and Mick

00:40:59.889 --> 00:41:02.909
Mars sealed his own fate when he used the term

00:41:02.909 --> 00:41:06.139
retiring from touring. That's all it took, because

00:41:06.139 --> 00:41:09.599
in the contract, in Mick Mars' own assistance,

00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:13.159
if you retire from touring, you're retired from

00:41:13.159 --> 00:41:15.360
the band, and you will be divested of everything.

00:41:15.659 --> 00:41:21.099
That is so messed up. He demanded all that, and

00:41:21.099 --> 00:41:24.460
then thought he could just get away with it.

00:41:25.159 --> 00:41:28.019
Which means, like I said, I think there's dementia.

00:41:28.440 --> 00:41:31.079
I think so. Something going on there for him

00:41:31.079 --> 00:41:37.809
to do it like that. Made no sense. And to Motley

00:41:37.809 --> 00:41:40.030
Crue's credit, they knew the whole time that

00:41:40.030 --> 00:41:42.670
it never had a prayer. But they never said a

00:41:42.670 --> 00:41:44.269
word. No, they were just kind of like, yeah,

00:41:44.630 --> 00:41:47.289
we'll wait until it gets to the court and then

00:41:47.289 --> 00:41:50.530
drop the bomb. There you go. No money for you.

00:41:50.849 --> 00:41:54.730
And then what's her name? Deal, his daughter,

00:41:54.889 --> 00:41:57.409
because his name is Bob Deal, his real name,

00:41:57.530 --> 00:42:01.969
putting up that post about him and all that.

00:42:02.030 --> 00:42:04.090
It's like, man, she was completely involved.

00:42:05.190 --> 00:42:07.150
Completely wrong. I don't know if she knew or

00:42:07.150 --> 00:42:09.409
if that's what she thought was going on. But,

00:42:09.469 --> 00:42:11.949
yeah, now in hindsight, it looks like a horrible

00:42:11.949 --> 00:42:15.789
post. Yeah. Didn't age well. No, it did not.

00:42:16.130 --> 00:42:20.190
All right. Three more. Greg Ginn of the seminal

00:42:20.190 --> 00:42:24.090
punk band Black Flag. Now, don't confuse that

00:42:24.090 --> 00:42:26.309
with King Zax, who had a song called Black Flag.

00:42:26.469 --> 00:42:28.849
This is a totally different band than Black Flag.

00:42:29.090 --> 00:42:34.380
Yeah, Black Flag had Henry Rollins. I think he

00:42:34.380 --> 00:42:36.099
was pretty much the only one to note from that

00:42:36.099 --> 00:42:38.300
band. Yeah. Greg Ginn is the only original member

00:42:38.300 --> 00:42:40.940
left because nobody else can stand him. Yeah,

00:42:40.940 --> 00:42:43.840
yeah. Everyone goes away from him. He has screwed

00:42:43.840 --> 00:42:47.579
over every bandmate he has ever had and every

00:42:47.579 --> 00:42:50.340
band that was signed to the SST label, which

00:42:50.340 --> 00:42:53.260
he ran. I don't think he owned it, but he was

00:42:53.260 --> 00:42:55.900
running it. What he did is he refused to pay

00:42:55.900 --> 00:42:59.159
royalties to anyone. under any circumstances

00:42:59.159 --> 00:43:01.860
unless they took him to court and sued him and

00:43:01.860 --> 00:43:03.679
the judge ordered him to pay it. That was the

00:43:03.679 --> 00:43:06.119
only time he would ever let go of the royalties

00:43:06.119 --> 00:43:08.980
that he was supposed to be paying everyone. Other

00:43:08.980 --> 00:43:13.840
than that, he just kept it for himself. And I

00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:17.039
followed up with some reports. Some people were

00:43:17.039 --> 00:43:19.179
weighing in with their personal experiences and

00:43:19.179 --> 00:43:22.579
several people saying, yeah, I met him in a meet

00:43:22.579 --> 00:43:25.550
and greet line after a show in whatever. And

00:43:25.550 --> 00:43:28.929
she said, I'm 19, female. And he came up and

00:43:28.929 --> 00:43:33.349
gave me an extra long hug and said, you're cute.

00:43:33.489 --> 00:43:37.170
I'd have sex with you. And she laughed. She said,

00:43:37.250 --> 00:43:38.969
well, I'm a lesbian, so it's not going to work

00:43:38.969 --> 00:43:41.769
out. And he looked at her and said, I'd still

00:43:41.769 --> 00:43:44.090
have sex with you, and wandered off. And another

00:43:44.090 --> 00:43:47.090
woman from another city said, he said the exact

00:43:47.090 --> 00:43:49.989
same line to me. I guess that's his line. You

00:43:49.989 --> 00:43:52.820
know, this guy is in his 60s, at least. And he's

00:43:52.820 --> 00:43:55.559
creeping on women around 19, 20 years old and

00:43:55.559 --> 00:43:57.480
telling, yeah, you're cute, I'd have sex with

00:43:57.480 --> 00:44:00.460
you. He's a David Lee Roth. Yeah, he's a total

00:44:00.460 --> 00:44:03.880
perv. So he's got that going for him, too. Yay!

00:44:04.760 --> 00:44:10.420
Thank you. Sting is apparently very awful. The

00:44:10.420 --> 00:44:13.320
other two guys in the band said he's insanely

00:44:13.320 --> 00:44:16.980
controlling. He has a very strong opinion about

00:44:16.980 --> 00:44:20.179
everything. He never admits he's wrong, never

00:44:20.179 --> 00:44:23.829
backs down. And if you have a disagreement with

00:44:23.829 --> 00:44:27.969
him about anything, he will relentlessly pick

00:44:27.969 --> 00:44:30.210
at you until you get so sick of it you just give

00:44:30.210 --> 00:44:33.449
in to make him shut up. Wow. That's who Sting

00:44:33.449 --> 00:44:36.369
is. I believe it. So apparently if he's absolutely

00:44:36.369 --> 00:44:38.730
getting his own way all the way through, he's

00:44:38.730 --> 00:44:42.469
okay to be around. But if anything goes wrong,

00:44:42.769 --> 00:44:47.449
he's just a nightmare. Yeah, I'll pass. You know

00:44:47.449 --> 00:44:49.110
what, I can believe that. Some of the songs that

00:44:49.110 --> 00:44:53.929
he wrote. And last up, we have the Van Halen

00:44:53.929 --> 00:44:58.329
brothers. They have apparently monster egos.

00:44:58.909 --> 00:45:01.469
Well, that was apparent. I mean, but so did David

00:45:01.469 --> 00:45:04.530
Lee Roth, and so did Sammy Hayworth. Yeah. Gary

00:45:04.530 --> 00:45:06.730
Sorrell, not so much, but that's how come he's

00:45:06.730 --> 00:45:08.730
a forgotten one. Yeah, and Michael Anthony got

00:45:08.730 --> 00:45:11.630
pretty much trampled on. Yeah, he did, constantly.

00:45:12.010 --> 00:45:16.750
But from band members, from the crew, from anybody

00:45:16.750 --> 00:45:19.510
who's ever worked for Van Halen, they say...

00:45:19.949 --> 00:45:23.409
The Van Halen brothers felt superior to everyone

00:45:23.409 --> 00:45:26.889
whose last name wasn't Van Halen. If your last

00:45:26.889 --> 00:45:28.710
name was Van Halen, they would treat you like

00:45:28.710 --> 00:45:30.849
an equal. If your name wasn't Van Halen, they

00:45:30.849 --> 00:45:33.349
would shit on you. And you just didn't matter.

00:45:33.750 --> 00:45:37.010
And they took full advantage of the fact that

00:45:37.010 --> 00:45:39.530
both of those guys were absolutely vital to the

00:45:39.530 --> 00:45:41.570
band. If either one of them left, the band would

00:45:41.570 --> 00:45:44.340
fall apart. And everyone says they used that

00:45:44.340 --> 00:45:46.119
to their full advantage. They knew they could

00:45:46.119 --> 00:45:48.659
make anybody do anything just by threatening

00:45:48.659 --> 00:45:51.699
to quit, which they did over and over and over.

00:45:52.059 --> 00:45:56.719
Until David Lee Roth finally quit. Yep. And it's

00:45:56.719 --> 00:45:59.760
funny because in the book Brothers by Alex Van

00:45:59.760 --> 00:46:03.179
Halen, he pretty much blamed the split up between

00:46:03.179 --> 00:46:05.500
David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen on his brother

00:46:05.500 --> 00:46:07.840
because he said his brother went out and did

00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:11.619
that solo on Beat It, Michael Jackson. And he

00:46:11.619 --> 00:46:13.760
started getting more popular, and they knew that

00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:15.719
that would not set well with David Lee Ross'

00:46:15.780 --> 00:46:17.860
ego. Yeah. And they knew that it might cause

00:46:17.860 --> 00:46:19.400
something like that, but he still said, I'm going

00:46:19.400 --> 00:46:24.349
to do it. And that's, you know, that's a battle

00:46:24.349 --> 00:46:26.429
of egos. And then finally David Roth was like,

00:46:26.489 --> 00:46:28.150
I'm going to do my solo stuff. Fuck you guys.

00:46:28.250 --> 00:46:30.969
And, you know, David should have known better

00:46:30.969 --> 00:46:33.809
because the band was named after Eddie and Alex.

00:46:34.070 --> 00:46:37.369
Yes. And Eddie was this amazing virtuoso guitar

00:46:37.369 --> 00:46:39.369
player who was playing in ways that most people

00:46:39.369 --> 00:46:42.190
had never heard before. He had to realize that

00:46:42.190 --> 00:46:44.809
he was not the lead. He was not the star of the

00:46:44.809 --> 00:46:47.150
band. Yeah, but his ego wouldn't let him do that,

00:46:47.170 --> 00:46:51.980
you know. Yeah. It's like Montrose. The guitar

00:46:51.980 --> 00:46:55.300
player, Montrose, was the star of the band. Sammy

00:46:55.300 --> 00:46:57.280
Hagar was the lead singer, but he wasn't the

00:46:57.280 --> 00:47:01.440
star of the band. Elvin Bishop, he was the guitar

00:47:01.440 --> 00:47:03.440
player. He was the star of the band. They had

00:47:03.440 --> 00:47:05.340
the song Fooled Around and Fell in Love. The

00:47:05.340 --> 00:47:07.639
singer was Mickey Thomas, who went on to sing

00:47:07.639 --> 00:47:10.579
for Jefferson Airplane and Starship. But he wasn't

00:47:10.579 --> 00:47:12.320
the leader of the band. He wasn't the main focus.

00:47:12.500 --> 00:47:14.380
No, he wasn't. It was Elvin Bishop, the guy who

00:47:14.380 --> 00:47:16.900
the band was named after. Yeah. So David should

00:47:16.900 --> 00:47:19.690
have known better. He should have. Yeah. What

00:47:19.690 --> 00:47:22.510
you got to do? Ego's a weird thing. Yeah. All

00:47:22.510 --> 00:47:25.349
right. I've got some bullet points. Oh, give

00:47:25.349 --> 00:47:28.730
me the bullet points. All right. What bands would

00:47:28.730 --> 00:47:31.030
you like to have a collaboration of music together?

00:47:31.909 --> 00:47:34.969
Before, during, after, whatever. Live, dead.

00:47:36.690 --> 00:47:39.010
You know, I would love to work with Jeff Lynn

00:47:39.010 --> 00:47:45.269
of ELO. I would also really enjoy working with

00:47:45.269 --> 00:47:49.130
Alan Parsons. Both of those? Those are very creative.

00:47:49.550 --> 00:47:54.030
I would echo your sentiment 100%, yeah. But just

00:47:54.030 --> 00:47:58.449
to get together and jam. To jam? I'd like to

00:47:58.449 --> 00:48:01.969
jam with Mick Mars. Yeah. But not today. Yeah.

00:48:02.909 --> 00:48:04.949
Back, shout at the double, two pass for love.

00:48:05.130 --> 00:48:08.769
Yeah. Because that guy had just. I'd like to

00:48:08.769 --> 00:48:11.449
jam with Chris Isaac. Because he's not a real

00:48:11.449 --> 00:48:14.269
rocker. He's more rockabilly and some softer

00:48:14.269 --> 00:48:16.489
stuff. But the drummer he's got, Kenny Anderson,

00:48:16.690 --> 00:48:20.699
is just amazing. Just such a delicate touch.

00:48:21.320 --> 00:48:23.300
Excellent choices of what to play and not to

00:48:23.300 --> 00:48:25.840
play. I would probably embarrass myself trying

00:48:25.840 --> 00:48:27.920
to play like him, but it would be fun to try.

00:48:28.239 --> 00:48:30.619
If that was on mushrooms, I would love to jam

00:48:30.619 --> 00:48:34.639
with Jeff Beck. Oh, yeah. Some of his shit. Yeah.

00:48:34.699 --> 00:48:40.940
I'd be like, wow. Let's see. For crunchiness,

00:48:40.980 --> 00:48:44.639
I would go like Mick Mars. Actually, I would

00:48:44.639 --> 00:48:49.190
love to take Mustaine. Oh, yeah. He's got a very

00:48:49.190 --> 00:48:53.730
unique way of crunchy playing. I would have a

00:48:53.730 --> 00:48:55.949
long time ago said James Hetfield, but not now

00:48:55.949 --> 00:49:00.730
because it's, yeah, who cares anymore? I mean,

00:49:00.730 --> 00:49:02.610
they've sucked for so long and I don't care.

00:49:06.010 --> 00:49:08.690
Bad Company would be fun. Oh, Bad Company. Mick

00:49:08.690 --> 00:49:12.869
Ralph's. Yeah. Yeah. And step in for Simon Kirk.

00:49:12.969 --> 00:49:15.349
Say, hey, go take a break. I want to play this

00:49:15.349 --> 00:49:18.559
one. Take a powder. with Simon Kirk and they'd

00:49:18.559 --> 00:49:20.699
go, who the fuck are you? Yeah. Get out of here.

00:49:21.340 --> 00:49:23.099
Hey, you know, even though I'm not very good

00:49:23.099 --> 00:49:24.980
at bass guitar, I could probably play at least

00:49:24.980 --> 00:49:27.880
as good as Buzz Burrell did. Oh, easily, yeah.

00:49:28.119 --> 00:49:30.019
He wasn't much of a bass player. No, he was not.

00:49:30.059 --> 00:49:33.639
He was a good guy and he was fun. He was important

00:49:33.639 --> 00:49:36.840
to the band, like that little syncopated lick

00:49:36.840 --> 00:49:44.329
for The Sky is Burning. Buzz Braille came up

00:49:44.329 --> 00:49:46.090
with that. It was just a straight beat until

00:49:46.090 --> 00:49:47.769
he said, hey, let's do it this way. Oh, that's

00:49:47.769 --> 00:49:49.489
great. And that made the whole song. It did.

00:49:49.510 --> 00:49:51.190
It made the whole song. And then Paul Rogers

00:49:51.190 --> 00:49:54.469
came in with this very weird vocal style. Yeah.

00:49:54.690 --> 00:49:58.429
It was just like, it fit. Somehow it fit. Yeah.

00:49:58.829 --> 00:50:00.809
Yeah. It became the title track of the album.

00:50:01.110 --> 00:50:05.650
Yeah. So. Yep. Actually, a really, really very

00:50:05.650 --> 00:50:11.349
unique good song. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. If you could

00:50:11.349 --> 00:50:14.710
start a band and it was signed right away and

00:50:14.710 --> 00:50:17.150
the record company wanted you to pick a producer

00:50:17.150 --> 00:50:19.530
for the first effort, what would that producer

00:50:19.530 --> 00:50:24.829
be? Who would it be? Mutt Lang. Mutt Lang would

00:50:24.829 --> 00:50:26.530
be a good one. Bob Ezra would be a good one.

00:50:26.530 --> 00:50:34.289
Bob Ezra. There was some drummer I heard of recently

00:50:34.289 --> 00:50:37.639
who was also producing. I know Butch Big from

00:50:37.639 --> 00:50:42.360
Garbage is a producer as well. If it wasn't like

00:50:42.360 --> 00:50:44.179
Bob Ezrin or Mutt Lang, I would probably want

00:50:44.179 --> 00:50:47.159
to go with a drummer producer. Okay. Just for

00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:48.960
my own personal... I'm going to say mine is Mutt

00:50:48.960 --> 00:50:51.659
Lang, number one, and that's just because he

00:50:51.659 --> 00:50:53.940
had such a way with the harder -edged songs that

00:50:53.940 --> 00:50:57.360
got radio play. Yeah. He was a master at that.

00:50:58.380 --> 00:51:00.440
You know, he could take a Def Leppard song and

00:51:00.440 --> 00:51:03.119
make it edgy and hard, but it would be played

00:51:03.119 --> 00:51:06.510
everywhere. Yeah. He had a very unique style

00:51:06.510 --> 00:51:11.070
of doing that. Well, there's so many that I'm

00:51:11.070 --> 00:51:12.710
leaving off just because I can't think of them

00:51:12.710 --> 00:51:15.570
right now. Gosh, yeah. Desmond Child, maybe?

00:51:15.869 --> 00:51:18.530
Desmond Child, yes. He would help you write the

00:51:18.530 --> 00:51:20.329
songs. He would write the songs. Well, he's a

00:51:20.329 --> 00:51:22.690
producer, too, so Desmond Child would be great.

00:51:24.269 --> 00:51:26.710
Desmond Child was notorious for bringing bands

00:51:26.710 --> 00:51:30.190
back from the dead. It's like, hey, like Aerosmith,

00:51:30.250 --> 00:51:33.130
they did that. collab with Run DMC, but then

00:51:33.130 --> 00:51:35.349
they're like, alright, well, we're still out

00:51:35.349 --> 00:51:38.110
of ideas. Yeah. And then, you know, Desmond Chow

00:51:38.110 --> 00:51:40.329
came in and started writing these songs for them.

00:51:40.349 --> 00:51:43.170
Yeah. They might have been bigger in the 80s

00:51:43.170 --> 00:51:44.869
than they were in the 70s, which is kind of hard

00:51:44.869 --> 00:51:48.710
to fathom. Yeah. I think after Alice Cooper's

00:51:48.710 --> 00:51:51.800
second stint in rehab... And he came back in

00:51:51.800 --> 00:51:55.139
like the mid -80s and he had two albums. One

00:51:55.139 --> 00:51:57.059
was called Constrictor and one was called Raise

00:51:57.059 --> 00:51:59.559
Your Fist and Yell. And they were more straight

00:51:59.559 --> 00:52:01.719
ahead, hard rock. I think Desmond Child worked

00:52:01.719 --> 00:52:04.019
on at least one of those. He did. He worked on

00:52:04.019 --> 00:52:05.579
both of them, I believe. I was thinking it was

00:52:05.579 --> 00:52:07.360
both of them, but I wasn't sure. Didn't he write

00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:09.840
Poison? But that was off a different album. That

00:52:09.840 --> 00:52:11.780
was off Trash. I think he was continuing with

00:52:11.780 --> 00:52:14.079
that. But yeah, he wrote some of those songs

00:52:14.079 --> 00:52:19.179
too. There's another one that he had at 32, Alice

00:52:19.179 --> 00:52:22.719
Cooper. Yeah. It might have been Hey Stupid.

00:52:22.860 --> 00:52:26.000
I think it was. It was Hey Stupid. Two O's. Two

00:52:26.000 --> 00:52:28.219
O's, okay. So when you go to Google. Stupid.

00:52:29.000 --> 00:52:35.019
Yeah. All righty. Next one. Will Sharon Osbourne

00:52:35.019 --> 00:52:40.360
ever produce her own autobiography? I'm probably

00:52:40.360 --> 00:52:43.460
thinking no. I don't know that she could really

00:52:43.460 --> 00:52:45.920
do it justice. I don't think she'd want to tell

00:52:45.920 --> 00:52:47.480
all the things that would make it interesting.

00:52:47.840 --> 00:52:51.980
I think it would be... her version of an autobiography

00:52:51.980 --> 00:52:55.019
I don't think she would fess up to some of the

00:52:55.019 --> 00:52:57.039
stuff that everyone else says that she's done

00:52:57.039 --> 00:53:02.199
to them personally I think there are definitely

00:53:02.199 --> 00:53:04.500
going to be books written about her and the smart

00:53:04.500 --> 00:53:06.960
people will wait until she's already gone so

00:53:06.960 --> 00:53:10.780
she can't sue them because she will although

00:53:10.780 --> 00:53:14.820
I do have full faith in her kids too I agree

00:53:17.119 --> 00:53:18.940
It's going to be harder for the kids to do it.

00:53:19.019 --> 00:53:23.420
Jack and Kelly won't be as vindictive. I wouldn't

00:53:23.420 --> 00:53:27.900
think so. All right, we're pretty much on track

00:53:27.900 --> 00:53:31.300
with all of this so far. Next one. Will Bob Daisley

00:53:31.300 --> 00:53:33.579
ever get the credit he deserves? Oh, my gosh.

00:53:33.659 --> 00:53:35.860
I'm not just talking about the Aussie stuff.

00:53:36.139 --> 00:53:38.380
I'm talking about Uriah Hink. I'm talking about

00:53:38.380 --> 00:53:43.360
Rainbow. I'm talking about, gosh, besides Aussie.

00:53:43.639 --> 00:53:47.780
He also helped play with Black Sabbath. Didn't

00:53:47.780 --> 00:53:49.940
he help Purple out on a couple of albums too?

00:53:50.260 --> 00:53:53.679
I think so. He's not on the credit, but he was

00:53:53.679 --> 00:53:56.900
behind the scenes helping him. Him and Roger

00:53:56.900 --> 00:53:59.639
Glover kind of worked together on some stuff.

00:53:59.920 --> 00:54:01.880
And that happens a lot more than I realized.

00:54:02.900 --> 00:54:05.699
Musicians would step in and play the backing

00:54:05.699 --> 00:54:08.460
guitar on this track or do the solo on this track

00:54:08.460 --> 00:54:11.769
and never get any credit. They didn't worry about

00:54:11.769 --> 00:54:13.170
it back then. No, they didn't care. They were

00:54:13.170 --> 00:54:14.710
just like, oh, yeah, yeah, he helped on that

00:54:14.710 --> 00:54:18.369
album. Why? Oh, yeah, yeah, it was good. It's

00:54:18.369 --> 00:54:23.730
like Aerosmith's Train Kept a Rollin'. They weren't

00:54:23.730 --> 00:54:25.710
having very much luck with doing the guitar parts,

00:54:25.769 --> 00:54:28.010
and Steve Hunter just happened to be in the studio

00:54:28.010 --> 00:54:31.130
down the hall recording for somebody else. And

00:54:31.130 --> 00:54:33.789
the producer for L. Smith said, hey, you want

00:54:33.789 --> 00:54:35.690
to come play guitar on some of our tracks? He's

00:54:35.690 --> 00:54:37.789
like, yeah, I still got my axe with me. So he

00:54:37.789 --> 00:54:41.710
stepped in and did all those parts. Just happened

00:54:41.710 --> 00:54:43.909
to be there. Monero Smith, Dude Looks Like a

00:54:43.909 --> 00:54:45.929
Lady, which was written about Vince Neil. Yeah.

00:54:47.809 --> 00:54:49.550
Okay, because Vince Neil looked like a lady.

00:54:49.710 --> 00:54:54.230
He did. You can hear Mick Mars down the hall.

00:54:55.269 --> 00:54:57.489
play it in the background if you listened to

00:54:57.489 --> 00:55:00.210
it very carefully. He refused to turn down his

00:55:00.210 --> 00:55:02.190
equipment, so he just went ahead and just kept

00:55:02.190 --> 00:55:05.570
recording with it in the background. That's funny.

00:55:05.750 --> 00:55:07.469
He went in there and said, hey Mick, Aerosmith's

00:55:07.469 --> 00:55:09.429
wanting you to turn it down a little bit. Fuck

00:55:09.429 --> 00:55:14.849
you. He kept playing. And finally Aerosmith's

00:55:14.849 --> 00:55:19.710
like, roll it. You can hear it, not very well,

00:55:19.809 --> 00:55:21.750
but actually it's kind of cool to listen to in

00:55:21.750 --> 00:55:24.309
the back of the song. Yeah, that sounds like

00:55:24.309 --> 00:55:27.039
Mick. Oh, yeah, yeah, he's got a down -tune,

00:55:27.039 --> 00:55:31.059
drop -down, not down -tune, drop -down. What

00:55:31.059 --> 00:55:35.980
did he tune his guitar to? I can't remember.

00:55:36.400 --> 00:55:42.099
He tuned his guitar down... Some of them use

00:55:42.099 --> 00:55:44.780
what's called the dad -gab, D -A -D, G -A -D.

00:55:45.139 --> 00:55:47.179
Yeah, he used something like that, but he did

00:55:47.179 --> 00:55:49.199
it to a different one to come up with his own.

00:55:49.320 --> 00:55:51.760
Yeah. Geez, I'll have to look it up, but anyhow.

00:55:53.019 --> 00:55:57.150
But you can hear his... Sound, that verbal. Hey,

00:55:57.250 --> 00:56:01.369
I know that. All right. Gene Simmons, is he a

00:56:01.369 --> 00:56:04.849
loudmouth, egotistical, or wise and makes great

00:56:04.849 --> 00:56:08.230
points? I say both. I say both, yeah. He made

00:56:08.230 --> 00:56:11.489
a great point about the Hall of Fame. I got an

00:56:11.489 --> 00:56:15.230
article on that, and I agree with that. He's

00:56:15.230 --> 00:56:17.369
right on that. He's absolutely right. I mean,

00:56:17.389 --> 00:56:19.809
listen, some of that stuff is ego -driven, and

00:56:19.809 --> 00:56:22.110
he does get a little egocentric, and he does

00:56:22.110 --> 00:56:26.880
like to brag. Yeah. A lot of his stuff is extremely

00:56:26.880 --> 00:56:31.139
educated, right to the point, doesn't fuck around,

00:56:31.440 --> 00:56:34.179
says what he thinks, and is not afraid of it,

00:56:34.199 --> 00:56:37.800
which I appreciate so much in today's world.

00:56:37.940 --> 00:56:39.900
He doesn't care. He's like, this is how I feel,

00:56:39.980 --> 00:56:42.039
and I don't care if you like it or not. I'm going

00:56:42.039 --> 00:56:45.079
to tell you how I feel. So, yeah, go protest

00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:48.340
it. I don't give a shit. I love it. I mean, to

00:56:48.340 --> 00:56:50.900
me, I wish more people had that attitude. This

00:56:50.900 --> 00:56:52.679
stupid shit would go away if people were like,

00:56:52.699 --> 00:56:55.639
I don't care. Yeah, I'm not playing along with

00:56:55.639 --> 00:56:58.400
your bullshit. Yeah, don't like it all you want.

00:56:58.559 --> 00:57:02.300
Yeah. Don't care. I wonder, I'm going to try

00:57:02.300 --> 00:57:04.380
to see if the interview is still available online.

00:57:04.820 --> 00:57:07.639
A number of years ago, Gene Simmons went on to

00:57:07.639 --> 00:57:11.219
a national public radio show called Fresh Air.

00:57:12.210 --> 00:57:16.389
NPR for the cool kids. And the host was Terry

00:57:16.389 --> 00:57:24.090
Gross. And he went on, I guess, playing a role

00:57:24.090 --> 00:57:26.409
or a character. He's trying to be as bizarre

00:57:26.409 --> 00:57:31.730
and strange and uncooperative as possible. Just

00:57:31.730 --> 00:57:36.769
to piss her off and get her off base and off

00:57:36.769 --> 00:57:41.159
track. And when the interview was over... He

00:57:41.159 --> 00:57:42.599
went back and listened to it, and he's like,

00:57:42.679 --> 00:57:44.639
oh, shit, I came off pretty weird in this one.

00:57:44.679 --> 00:57:47.820
So he tried to get the interview killed and not

00:57:47.820 --> 00:57:51.440
aired. And NPR said, nah, we're airing it. And

00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:57.519
they aired it under the heading of most unusual

00:57:57.519 --> 00:58:00.380
celebrity of the year or something like that.

00:58:00.440 --> 00:58:02.480
Oh, I love it. Most unusual character of the

00:58:02.480 --> 00:58:04.360
year, I think they described it. Is this when

00:58:04.360 --> 00:58:06.739
he was constantly trying to bang on chicks all

00:58:06.739 --> 00:58:08.960
the time and probably being creepy like that?

00:58:09.079 --> 00:58:14.199
Yeah, yeah. One thing he did is he was discussing

00:58:14.199 --> 00:58:18.059
his birth name, and she mispronounced it. And

00:58:18.059 --> 00:58:21.440
he said, well, that's close, but you've mispronounced

00:58:21.440 --> 00:58:23.659
it. The problem is it's coming out of a Gentile's

00:58:23.659 --> 00:58:27.460
mouth. And she said, I'm not a Gentile. And he

00:58:27.460 --> 00:58:30.360
said, oh, really? Oh, and you could tell he was

00:58:30.360 --> 00:58:33.199
genuinely surprised. He said, oh, okay, well,

00:58:33.280 --> 00:58:37.099
we'll have to discuss that later. But he was

00:58:37.099 --> 00:58:39.480
ready to jump on her and say, well, you're just

00:58:39.480 --> 00:58:41.780
a Gentile, so you can't say my name right. She

00:58:41.780 --> 00:58:45.760
said, no, I'm not. That's funny. And it's interesting.

00:58:45.880 --> 00:58:48.699
When I was growing up, someone told me that their

00:58:48.699 --> 00:58:51.300
term Gentile was how Jews referred to Christians.

00:58:51.860 --> 00:58:57.260
No, Gentile means a non -Jew. Yes. So there are

00:58:57.260 --> 00:59:00.170
only two categories, Jews and Gentiles. And,

00:59:00.170 --> 00:59:02.510
you know, you could worship that lump of rock

00:59:02.510 --> 00:59:05.050
over there and you'd be a Gentile. It just doesn't

00:59:05.050 --> 00:59:08.750
matter. Yeah, isn't it? So it's a real us and

00:59:08.750 --> 00:59:11.469
them situation. A hundred percent. Yeah. You're

00:59:11.469 --> 00:59:16.289
either them or you're a Gentile. Wow. But, you

00:59:16.289 --> 00:59:19.690
know, on TV it's still used to meet Christians.

00:59:21.000 --> 00:59:23.300
They wouldn't look at a Muslim person and call

00:59:23.300 --> 00:59:26.679
him a Gentile. Not on TV anyway. That's not the

00:59:26.679 --> 00:59:29.059
way it's perceived. It would never be different

00:59:29.059 --> 00:59:31.119
because people don't care enough to correct anybody.

00:59:31.420 --> 00:59:34.719
That's not true. All right. If you could be on

00:59:34.719 --> 00:59:37.739
tour with one band of all time, what band would

00:59:37.739 --> 00:59:41.920
it be? Wow. I love that question because, jeez.

00:59:43.219 --> 00:59:49.949
Holy cow. Mine. Yeah. But I wanted to be invisible

00:59:49.949 --> 00:59:51.889
so I wouldn't get caught up in the shenanigans.

00:59:51.989 --> 00:59:55.789
Yeah. Be Ozzy Motley. Yeah. That'd be pretty

00:59:55.789 --> 00:59:58.610
insane. Oh, gosh. All the shit they did. Yeah.

00:59:58.630 --> 01:00:01.210
I'd just love to have been back there. I probably

01:00:01.210 --> 01:00:05.170
would have gone on the 1973 Billion Dollar Babies

01:00:05.170 --> 01:00:06.730
Tour for Alice. Oh, that would have been something.

01:00:07.090 --> 01:00:09.789
ZZ Top, I think, was opening during part of that

01:00:09.789 --> 01:00:12.329
time. That would be interesting. That would be

01:00:12.329 --> 01:00:15.710
interesting, yeah. But that... I mean, that was

01:00:15.710 --> 01:00:18.010
kind of the last big hurrah for his original

01:00:18.010 --> 01:00:21.769
band. That was kind of the last time they really

01:00:21.769 --> 01:00:23.909
got along enough to make good music together.

01:00:27.289 --> 01:00:29.389
Yep. That would be interesting. That would have

01:00:29.389 --> 01:00:31.550
been good. Either one was great choices because

01:00:31.550 --> 01:00:33.869
there's so many shenanigans that happen on each

01:00:33.869 --> 01:00:36.489
one of the albums. And also, like you said, the

01:00:36.489 --> 01:00:43.309
bands, well... The band didn't really break up,

01:00:43.349 --> 01:00:45.429
but Sharon made sure they never toured again

01:00:45.429 --> 01:00:50.550
after that. We're not doing this again because

01:00:50.550 --> 01:00:53.969
a couple of you are going to be exiting the tour

01:00:53.969 --> 01:00:56.269
in body bags, so we're not going to have this

01:00:56.269 --> 01:00:58.250
anymore. As a matter of fact, it's so bad that

01:00:58.250 --> 01:01:01.230
she had to start going along with them, which

01:01:01.230 --> 01:01:04.269
she hated because she's constantly fed off stupid

01:01:04.269 --> 01:01:06.449
shit. She didn't really do anything about mopping.

01:01:06.909 --> 01:01:09.349
But she always had to watch out for her interests,

01:01:09.389 --> 01:01:12.030
and that'd be Jake and Ozzy and whoever else,

01:01:12.070 --> 01:01:17.730
if anyone else was there, too. All right. What

01:01:17.730 --> 01:01:20.429
rock star will find Jesus and stop playing music?

01:01:20.889 --> 01:01:27.190
I'm talking the next one, too. I'm going to say

01:01:27.190 --> 01:01:30.230
Youngblood. That would be a good choice, yeah.

01:01:32.210 --> 01:01:33.889
Even though I love him, but I don't want him

01:01:33.889 --> 01:01:36.500
to stop. Yeah. I mean, he's really refreshing.

01:01:36.679 --> 01:01:40.539
I like him. Talented. You know, maybe Marilyn

01:01:40.539 --> 01:01:43.300
Manson, except he's not relevant anymore. No.

01:01:45.159 --> 01:01:47.500
Drew Fresnor, but he's not relevant anymore.

01:01:47.679 --> 01:01:52.199
Who's relevant that would, gosh, I don't know.

01:01:54.579 --> 01:01:59.719
King Diamond? Yeah, okay. Actually, I think King

01:01:59.719 --> 01:02:02.610
Diamond might have. I think he did after his

01:02:02.610 --> 01:02:04.849
massive heart attack. Yeah, I think he kind of

01:02:04.849 --> 01:02:06.769
did. All right, I think I'm going to put that

01:02:06.769 --> 01:02:09.389
safe and stuff. I think I'm going to... Yeah.

01:02:11.269 --> 01:02:13.289
When I had my heart attack, I didn't see the

01:02:13.289 --> 01:02:15.789
light. I saw flames. Yeah, so I think I'm going

01:02:15.789 --> 01:02:17.230
to go ahead and change things around a little

01:02:17.230 --> 01:02:21.630
bit. Yeah. Enlightened self -interest. Yes. And

01:02:21.630 --> 01:02:23.469
also, that whole thing isn't working anymore.

01:02:23.570 --> 01:02:25.289
Nobody cares. Yeah. It's like, oh, you're in

01:02:25.289 --> 01:02:27.269
the safe. Oh, okay. All right, cool. But what

01:02:27.269 --> 01:02:30.590
about this album? No, I sacrifice him. Okay,

01:02:30.630 --> 01:02:33.949
cool, yeah. What about this album? Nobody cares.

01:02:35.469 --> 01:02:39.510
All right. What would be a good punk rock band

01:02:39.510 --> 01:02:42.110
name? I already gave mine out. Johnny Gash. Yours?

01:02:44.010 --> 01:02:49.769
Man, I can't. The only one I can think of is

01:02:49.769 --> 01:02:53.789
Anita Bryant's Breasts. ABB for short. I'm going

01:02:53.789 --> 01:02:56.829
to say the Screaming Rockefellers. Oh, that'd

01:02:56.829 --> 01:03:03.050
be a good one. The Bulimic Rothschilds. The Dead

01:03:03.050 --> 01:03:14.190
Regrets. Yes. Left Foot in a Right Shoe. The

01:03:14.190 --> 01:03:21.849
Bunions. Canker Sore Incorporated. There's probably

01:03:21.849 --> 01:03:24.250
some good ones on my list of interesting band

01:03:24.250 --> 01:03:27.750
names. Johnny Filth. Johnny Filth was a good

01:03:27.750 --> 01:03:34.559
one. And the Dead Saxophones. Flaming orphans.

01:03:34.739 --> 01:03:43.760
Ruptured spleen. Deep, deep penetrating trauma.

01:03:44.480 --> 01:03:56.360
Kurt Cobain's remains. Peggy Incorporated. How

01:03:56.360 --> 01:04:04.739
about... Traffic Fatality's Last Shit. That's

01:04:04.739 --> 01:04:07.019
pretty rude. That was very rude. I loved it.

01:04:10.840 --> 01:04:23.039
ALS for Beginners. Swimming in Razorblades. Cancerous

01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:31.400
Toenail. Swim in Razorblades. Cannibalistic carp.

01:04:32.320 --> 01:04:40.539
Yeah. All right. Anyhow, we can go on. Will Ted

01:04:40.539 --> 01:04:43.039
Nugent hit Dave Lee Roth in the face eventually?

01:04:44.320 --> 01:04:46.860
I'm going to say yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he'll eventually.

01:04:47.159 --> 01:04:49.079
Even though they don't seem to have heat, I think

01:04:49.079 --> 01:04:51.400
just somewhere, somehow, it's going to happen

01:04:51.400 --> 01:04:53.960
organically. Yeah. And Dave Lee Roth's going

01:04:53.960 --> 01:04:55.719
to walk up and he'll go, whoa! And he's going

01:04:55.719 --> 01:04:59.530
to go, bam! Or. Will he get him in the mouth

01:04:59.530 --> 01:05:03.230
with the butt end of his guitar? Lift his guitar

01:05:03.230 --> 01:05:05.670
up and just break out some of David Lee Ross'

01:05:05.789 --> 01:05:07.510
fake teeth. Yeah, then David Lee Ross is going

01:05:07.510 --> 01:05:14.269
to go, whoa, and walk off bleeding. Who would

01:05:14.269 --> 01:05:16.670
win in a fist fight? This is a battle of the

01:05:16.670 --> 01:05:20.610
gingers. Axl Rose versus Dave Mustaine. I'm going

01:05:20.610 --> 01:05:23.869
to say Dave Mustaine. Me too. I think Dave Mustaine

01:05:23.869 --> 01:05:26.329
would beat the shit out of him. wipe his ass

01:05:26.329 --> 01:05:29.769
with his face and beat him for dead. He would

01:05:29.769 --> 01:05:33.590
say, Axel, I gotta take a dump, hang on. Throw

01:05:33.590 --> 01:05:36.110
him back on the ground. Yeah, I think Dave's

01:05:36.110 --> 01:05:39.190
got more anger in his system. I think so too.

01:05:39.349 --> 01:05:42.250
I think Axel kind of looks like Buster Brown

01:05:42.250 --> 01:05:44.389
with a little bit of extra weight. Yeah, and

01:05:44.389 --> 01:05:46.929
Axel's more accustomed to having other people

01:05:46.929 --> 01:05:50.039
fight as fights for him. This is true. Dave Mustaine

01:05:50.039 --> 01:05:52.519
will get in there and throw his hands. He's always

01:05:52.519 --> 01:05:54.460
done that. He'd go in and beat someone's ass

01:05:54.460 --> 01:05:57.579
because he has to. I think Axl Rose was a lot

01:05:57.579 --> 01:06:01.239
of talk. He had every opportunity to fight Vince

01:06:01.239 --> 01:06:02.980
Neal, who I thought he would kick the shit out

01:06:02.980 --> 01:06:06.860
of, and he never did. He was always at Malvin,

01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:08.360
but then whenever someone was like, hey, he's

01:06:08.360 --> 01:06:10.760
over there, he would never go over there. As

01:06:10.760 --> 01:06:13.579
a matter of fact, I remember Vince saying, hey,

01:06:13.619 --> 01:06:15.960
he gave the time and place to MTV and said, I'll

01:06:15.960 --> 01:06:20.909
be right here. And Axl never showed up. I think

01:06:20.909 --> 01:06:23.309
Dave would point at Axl's crotch and say, hey,

01:06:23.369 --> 01:06:25.809
that looks like a penis, only smaller. And then

01:06:25.809 --> 01:06:27.710
when Axl looked down, he'd kick him in the teeth.

01:06:30.570 --> 01:06:38.269
Axl would call him a filthy Mexican. Oh, I remember

01:06:38.269 --> 01:06:42.610
the singer for Def Leppard blanking on his name.

01:06:43.010 --> 01:06:46.440
Joe Elliott. Joe Elliott. Back when they were,

01:06:46.539 --> 01:06:48.420
before the drummer lost his arm and they were

01:06:48.420 --> 01:06:51.420
riding kind of high, they did a concert down

01:06:51.420 --> 01:06:56.519
in Texas that was fairly close to the Mexican

01:06:56.519 --> 01:07:00.400
border. Might have been a border town. And somebody

01:07:00.400 --> 01:07:04.119
had misinformed the band about the meaning of

01:07:04.119 --> 01:07:16.699
the term greaser. Hey, my little pumpkin seeds,

01:07:16.880 --> 01:07:19.460
this is Johnny Rohypnol with your music news.

01:07:19.960 --> 01:07:23.519
John Karabi, former lead singer of Motley Crue

01:07:23.519 --> 01:07:27.000
and The Scream, has a new album coming out on

01:07:27.000 --> 01:07:30.119
April 24th called New Day. You can pre -order

01:07:30.119 --> 01:07:32.480
the album online. The effort features guitars

01:07:32.480 --> 01:07:35.880
like Richard Fortis from Guns N' Roses, Paul

01:07:35.880 --> 01:07:38.780
Taylor from winger Steve Perry on keyboards,

01:07:39.159 --> 01:07:42.440
Marty Freckerson, producer of multi -instrumentalist

01:07:42.800 --> 01:07:45.340
and Charlie Starr from Blackberry Smoke on guitar

01:07:45.340 --> 01:07:48.860
solos, alongside Evan Freckerson on drums and

01:07:48.860 --> 01:07:51.920
bass. This should be a pretty good album. Sure

01:07:51.920 --> 01:07:55.239
has a lot of talent to go with it. This is Johnny

01:07:55.239 --> 01:07:58.440
Rohypnol. That was your music news. And remember,

01:07:58.619 --> 01:08:03.980
bar chords are bullshit. I can see that going

01:08:03.980 --> 01:08:07.139
bad. Yeah. And Joe Elliott thought it was just

01:08:07.139 --> 01:08:09.539
like a term of endearment, like calling a British

01:08:09.539 --> 01:08:14.360
person a limey. which is no big deal. So when

01:08:14.360 --> 01:08:18.579
the band was playing, between songs, he said

01:08:18.579 --> 01:08:20.979
something like, it's great to be down here to

01:08:20.979 --> 01:08:25.220
play to all you fans and all you Mexican greasers.

01:08:27.199 --> 01:08:33.159
And the mood in the room changed. And he had

01:08:33.159 --> 01:08:35.779
no idea that the term greaser, he thought like

01:08:35.779 --> 01:08:37.960
the 50s greasers where you grease your hair back.

01:08:38.180 --> 01:08:40.800
And him being British, he didn't really get that.

01:08:40.800 --> 01:08:43.680
So he didn't realize that using that term for

01:08:43.680 --> 01:08:46.779
Mexican people was a really bad idea. Oh my gosh.

01:08:47.000 --> 01:08:49.220
I would have loved to have seen that crowd when

01:08:49.220 --> 01:08:51.859
he did that. Oh God. And there was like enormous

01:08:51.859 --> 01:08:54.960
apologies the next day. It's like, I had no idea.

01:08:55.159 --> 01:08:57.220
I just heard the term. I thought I knew what

01:08:57.220 --> 01:09:00.859
it meant. Oh, that's funny. Yeah. But you know,

01:09:00.899 --> 01:09:03.600
he totally survived that. No, he did. Totally

01:09:03.600 --> 01:09:05.159
survived that. I would have never known about

01:09:05.159 --> 01:09:08.260
it until you said something. No. I remember reading

01:09:08.260 --> 01:09:10.579
the article in the newspaper. I thought, damn,

01:09:10.819 --> 01:09:17.180
I'm smart enough to know that. Joe Elliott's

01:09:17.180 --> 01:09:20.239
a very likable guy, luckily. He is. He is. All

01:09:20.239 --> 01:09:23.220
right, and then finally, another little fist

01:09:23.220 --> 01:09:25.640
fight deal here. How about Zach Wilde versus

01:09:25.640 --> 01:09:28.880
Jerry Cantrell? This one I have a tough time

01:09:28.880 --> 01:09:31.140
with. Zach Wild works out a lot, but Jerry Cantrell

01:09:31.140 --> 01:09:34.119
just looks tough. Jerry Cantrell looks like he

01:09:34.119 --> 01:09:36.560
knows a lot of dirty tricks. Yes. I'm going to

01:09:36.560 --> 01:09:38.720
say Jerry Cantrell. I'm going to say Jerry. I

01:09:38.720 --> 01:09:40.659
think Zach comes up punching him in the face

01:09:40.659 --> 01:09:42.579
with those big arms, and I think Jerry Cantrell

01:09:42.579 --> 01:09:44.319
falls to the ground and bites his nuts on the

01:09:44.319 --> 01:09:49.800
way down. Therefore, Jerry winning. Yeah, I'd

01:09:49.800 --> 01:09:51.859
go with Jerry. And besides that, if he's wearing

01:09:51.859 --> 01:09:53.579
a kilt, it's going to be really easy to get to

01:09:53.579 --> 01:09:55.970
his nuts. This is true. This is true. All he's

01:09:55.970 --> 01:09:57.430
got to do on the way down is give him a good

01:09:57.430 --> 01:09:59.829
yank and he's done. Unless he's a ball genie.

01:10:00.550 --> 01:10:06.529
Yeah, this is true. He could be any. Yeah, the

01:10:06.529 --> 01:10:10.529
jury's reaching. Too late. He's got that boot

01:10:10.529 --> 01:10:12.250
on him. There's a little sign down there that

01:10:12.250 --> 01:10:17.130
said, Too late, Biggin got here first. Oh, that's

01:10:17.130 --> 01:10:19.789
right. We're doing ours tomorrow night because

01:10:19.789 --> 01:10:22.289
I got a massage tonight. So I got to tell the

01:10:22.289 --> 01:10:24.189
story about Biggin because I can't find it anywhere.

01:10:24.369 --> 01:10:27.430
Oh, yeah. It sucks. I had it. Yeah. I don't know

01:10:27.430 --> 01:10:30.810
where it is. I must have mislabeled it or something.

01:10:30.909 --> 01:10:34.390
Yeah. Like, I don't know, the St. Prick files

01:10:34.390 --> 01:10:37.069
or something. Yeah. Have you heard of Crotch,

01:10:37.109 --> 01:10:39.720
the old St. Prick? The one that doesn't... Oh,

01:10:39.720 --> 01:10:41.500
yes. Yeah, that gives you a different wish than

01:10:41.500 --> 01:10:44.380
what you want. A poem, a horrible poem. I probably

01:10:44.380 --> 01:10:47.939
mislabeled it St. Crick or something. Yeah. I

01:10:47.939 --> 01:10:50.680
think it's one of the earliest episodes you talk

01:10:50.680 --> 01:10:53.560
about Big and the Bullbiter. It was, I know.

01:10:53.699 --> 01:10:55.960
I think it's like the ninth episode. Yeah, within

01:10:55.960 --> 01:10:59.939
the first dozen episodes, I think it is. I'll

01:10:59.939 --> 01:11:02.079
find it, because I want the original one. The

01:11:02.079 --> 01:11:03.939
original one was the best, because I remembered

01:11:03.939 --> 01:11:08.409
it very well. And, yeah, because I forgot what

01:11:08.409 --> 01:11:10.529
triggered it, and I was like, I'm going to tell

01:11:10.529 --> 01:11:12.529
about the bullbiter. Yeah. It was probably around

01:11:12.529 --> 01:11:14.729
the same time you told us about the mad shitter.

01:11:14.869 --> 01:11:17.270
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The mad shitter I

01:11:17.270 --> 01:11:20.609
had. Okay. Yeah. That's a good one. Yeah. Bigging

01:11:20.609 --> 01:11:22.890
the bullbiter. Yeah, the first, like, 20 episodes

01:11:22.890 --> 01:11:25.210
were full of all the crazy stories I had. Yeah.

01:11:25.329 --> 01:11:28.789
And now people email me reminding me. Yeah. Like

01:11:28.789 --> 01:11:31.569
Mitch and the famous boner in the field. Yeah.

01:11:32.170 --> 01:11:34.310
I'd forgotten all about that until he mentioned

01:11:34.310 --> 01:11:38.439
the girl. uh jesse the little chick that used

01:11:38.439 --> 01:11:40.779
to hang out with and yeah and then i remembered

01:11:40.779 --> 01:11:42.659
it i was like that's why he doesn't care for

01:11:42.659 --> 01:11:45.439
me but actually he doesn't dislike me he just

01:11:45.439 --> 01:11:48.279
thought he'd bring that up and go hey remember

01:11:48.279 --> 01:11:51.960
that i'm like yeah yeah actually i do now so

01:11:51.960 --> 01:11:55.319
anyhow uh you got something you want to go into

01:11:55.319 --> 01:11:59.720
i have other stuff also well i'm gonna hit pause

01:11:59.720 --> 01:12:02.279
for a second because i really gotta pee and then

01:12:02.279 --> 01:12:05.869
after you get done i will go okay Okay, we both

01:12:05.869 --> 01:12:08.729
had to take a break for urinary reasons, and

01:12:08.729 --> 01:12:10.850
we forgot where we're at, so we're going to start

01:12:10.850 --> 01:12:13.149
this. We're not even going to back up and take

01:12:13.149 --> 01:12:14.989
a look. We're just going to soldier on ahead.

01:12:15.210 --> 01:12:18.569
Yeah, you had something you just had sent to

01:12:18.569 --> 01:12:21.529
you by your lovely wife. Yeah, she sent me a

01:12:21.529 --> 01:12:25.970
little article about the actor Don Knotts. He

01:12:25.970 --> 01:12:29.850
was in Three's. That's with a K. Yes, Knotts.

01:12:30.010 --> 01:12:33.680
Knotts. He was in Three's Company. as the Mr.

01:12:33.899 --> 01:12:35.859
Furley, the nervous landlord. The ghost Mr. Chicken.

01:12:36.720 --> 01:12:39.720
He was in Andy Griffith. He got a start in Andy

01:12:39.720 --> 01:12:44.560
Griffith in the early 60s. But his start in life,

01:12:44.619 --> 01:12:51.079
he was born in West Virginia in 1924. His mother

01:12:51.079 --> 01:12:53.319
was already 40 years old, and all of his siblings

01:12:53.319 --> 01:12:55.920
were teenagers. So he was a late, unexpected

01:12:55.920 --> 01:13:00.699
baby. He was an oops? Yeah. And there wasn't

01:13:00.699 --> 01:13:02.800
really a bedroom for him, so his cot was put

01:13:02.800 --> 01:13:04.640
in the kitchen, and that's where he slept at

01:13:04.640 --> 01:13:06.779
night. But then to leave and go do anything,

01:13:06.859 --> 01:13:08.939
he had to walk past his father. He spent most

01:13:08.939 --> 01:13:11.619
of his days lying on the couch, suffering from

01:13:11.619 --> 01:13:15.300
both alcoholism and schizophrenia. Oh, wow. So

01:13:15.300 --> 01:13:20.899
Mr. Knott kind of had a lot going on. Yeah. Now,

01:13:20.960 --> 01:13:23.600
both alcoholism and schizophrenia were not talked

01:13:23.600 --> 01:13:25.930
about. You just kind of ignored them and put

01:13:25.930 --> 01:13:30.890
up with them back then. And so his father, Jesse,

01:13:31.109 --> 01:13:36.310
used to hold a knife to young Don's throat and

01:13:36.310 --> 01:13:41.090
threaten him when he was still in diapers. Wow,

01:13:41.369 --> 01:13:43.489
because he was schizophrenic? Yep. And an alcoholic

01:13:43.489 --> 01:13:47.289
didn't help either? Yeah. Wow. He said some days

01:13:47.289 --> 01:13:51.100
were calm, other days were terrifying. Later

01:13:51.100 --> 01:13:53.359
in life, his mother asked if he remembered when

01:13:53.359 --> 01:13:55.239
his father held a knife to his throat when he

01:13:55.239 --> 01:13:57.239
was still in diapers. And Don had blocked the

01:13:57.239 --> 01:13:59.539
memories, but his body still remembered the fear.

01:14:00.180 --> 01:14:06.279
Wow. Elise, his mother, Elsie, held everything

01:14:06.279 --> 01:14:08.340
together, encouraged him when he started trying

01:14:08.340 --> 01:14:11.479
to tell jokes and do magic tricks and be a ventriloquist.

01:14:11.560 --> 01:14:14.739
She just encouraged all of it. And then when

01:14:14.739 --> 01:14:20.500
Don was 13... In 1937, his father died, and Don

01:14:20.500 --> 01:14:25.960
suddenly blossomed. He was in high school. He

01:14:25.960 --> 01:14:28.239
became class president. He wrote a humor column,

01:14:28.359 --> 01:14:32.699
performed in talent shows. He enlisted when World

01:14:32.699 --> 01:14:36.539
War II started and was a performer and entertainer

01:14:36.539 --> 01:14:38.960
for the troops. Traveled all over doing that.

01:14:40.359 --> 01:14:44.149
Moved to New York. Taking stage work anywhere

01:14:44.149 --> 01:14:46.090
he could find. And then when the Andy Griffith

01:14:46.090 --> 01:14:50.270
Show needed a nervous deputy, Barney Fife, he

01:14:50.270 --> 01:14:53.550
auditioned. And they said most of what you see

01:14:53.550 --> 01:14:56.369
him doing on screen as the nervous, jittery,

01:14:56.369 --> 01:15:00.649
twitchy Barney Fife, he's tapping into his childhood

01:15:00.649 --> 01:15:02.869
and living with a schizophrenic, violent father.

01:15:03.149 --> 01:15:06.810
Wow. So you're seeing how he used to be. He did

01:15:06.810 --> 01:15:10.430
that same gimmick as Mr. Furley on Three's Company.

01:15:12.119 --> 01:15:14.239
You know, all the bug -eyed and the fear and

01:15:14.239 --> 01:15:17.520
the nervousness, jittery, that was all based

01:15:17.520 --> 01:15:21.119
on real, real feelings. Wow. He didn't have to

01:15:21.119 --> 01:15:25.319
pretend at all. Amazing. Yeah. Well, no wonder

01:15:25.319 --> 01:15:30.239
he was so good at it. Yep. But they said his

01:15:30.239 --> 01:15:34.800
mother, Elsie, never became famous. But she basically,

01:15:35.060 --> 01:15:38.399
without her, he probably would have been killed

01:15:38.399 --> 01:15:43.850
by his father in childhood. Wow. As it turned

01:15:43.850 --> 01:15:48.090
out, Don worked until the age of 81 in the year

01:15:48.090 --> 01:15:50.930
2006, shortly before he died. He was still working.

01:15:51.310 --> 01:15:53.770
Yeah, I think I remember that. He was actually

01:15:53.770 --> 01:15:57.250
doing dinner theater a lot. There's a picture

01:15:57.250 --> 01:16:01.210
of him and his mother together. But he overcame

01:16:01.210 --> 01:16:04.319
a bunch. Yeah, he did. I always respect him,

01:16:04.380 --> 01:16:07.000
too. Yeah, I mean, when I was a kid, I didn't

01:16:07.000 --> 01:16:09.840
like him because I was based on the way he was

01:16:09.840 --> 01:16:14.500
acting on screen, and it made me nervous. I was

01:16:14.500 --> 01:16:17.239
in a not -too -different situation as a kid.

01:16:17.279 --> 01:16:19.739
My home was also very violent and dangerous to

01:16:19.739 --> 01:16:24.220
me. So that's probably why I didn't really enjoy

01:16:24.220 --> 01:16:26.039
the way he was acting. It's like, hell, that's

01:16:26.039 --> 01:16:29.520
my life. That's how I am. That's not entertaining.

01:16:29.739 --> 01:16:31.939
That's the life I live every day, trying to stay

01:16:31.939 --> 01:16:34.130
away from... Somebody who's trying to hit me.

01:16:34.149 --> 01:16:36.949
I couldn't understand that. Wow. Yeah. You know,

01:16:36.970 --> 01:16:41.050
he used to take residence. He would do like three

01:16:41.050 --> 01:16:44.930
months at the New Theater restaurant over there

01:16:44.930 --> 01:16:47.090
off of Metcalf. I think it's still there. I'm

01:16:47.090 --> 01:16:49.430
not for sure. Yeah. It used to be in Waldo. The

01:16:49.430 --> 01:16:51.930
Waldorf Astoria was one. Yeah, that was up here.

01:16:52.050 --> 01:16:54.569
But, yeah, this one was actually in Johnson County.

01:16:55.159 --> 01:16:57.100
right off of Metcalf called the New Theater Dinner

01:16:57.100 --> 01:17:00.079
Restaurant. And he used to play a lot of roles

01:17:00.079 --> 01:17:01.779
in that. He'd be there for like three months

01:17:01.779 --> 01:17:04.640
doing this like twice a week or whatever. A lot

01:17:04.640 --> 01:17:06.500
of people I knew, including the guy that did

01:17:06.500 --> 01:17:08.699
maintenance over there on those townhomes behind

01:17:08.699 --> 01:17:11.000
there, got to know him because that's where he

01:17:11.000 --> 01:17:15.239
stayed. That's where they put him up. And nice

01:17:15.239 --> 01:17:17.960
guy. So really down the road to talk to you.

01:17:18.730 --> 01:17:20.729
Everybody said that, that had met him, and I

01:17:20.729 --> 01:17:22.909
know a lot of people had met him because they

01:17:22.909 --> 01:17:25.909
worked in that area, serviced that area. I forgot

01:17:25.909 --> 01:17:28.850
the name of the townhomes, but if I said the

01:17:28.850 --> 01:17:30.909
name, you'd go, oh yeah, I heard of them. So

01:17:30.909 --> 01:17:34.250
anyhow, I can totally believe that. Most people

01:17:34.250 --> 01:17:38.289
who worked on the Andy Griffith show said Andy

01:17:38.289 --> 01:17:44.069
Griffith was tough and harsh, but basically a

01:17:44.069 --> 01:17:49.130
decent guy. He was very blunt when it came to

01:17:49.130 --> 01:17:51.430
work. He wanted what he wanted, and he wasn't

01:17:51.430 --> 01:17:55.649
going to sugarcoat anything. Don was the nice

01:17:55.649 --> 01:17:58.489
guy that everyone liked and got along with. And

01:17:58.489 --> 01:18:04.170
then Frances Bavier, who played Aunt Bea, she

01:18:04.170 --> 01:18:08.149
hated everyone. No, I'm joking. She thought the

01:18:08.149 --> 01:18:10.170
show was beneath her, but she didn't want to

01:18:10.170 --> 01:18:13.279
quit, so she just hated on everybody. left and

01:18:13.279 --> 01:18:16.119
right and sideways. And she only reconciled with

01:18:16.119 --> 01:18:19.579
Andy Griffith a few years before her death. And

01:18:19.579 --> 01:18:21.779
she said, man, I wish I'd been a nicer person.

01:18:21.979 --> 01:18:24.520
They were all being nice to me. I didn't realize

01:18:24.520 --> 01:18:26.579
what an opportunity I had. I really blew it.

01:18:26.920 --> 01:18:31.159
So she had her regrets later. At least she reconciled

01:18:31.159 --> 01:18:33.119
with Andy Griffith. And most of the cast and

01:18:33.119 --> 01:18:35.020
crew said, yeah, Don Knotts was the reason we

01:18:35.020 --> 01:18:37.279
enjoyed coming to work every day for that show.

01:18:37.739 --> 01:18:40.520
I believe that is naturally entertaining because

01:18:40.520 --> 01:18:44.239
of his tragic life growing up. So you think I

01:18:44.239 --> 01:18:46.659
would be more entertaining, but oh well. I don't

01:18:46.659 --> 01:18:48.180
know. But you're pretty good on the podcast,

01:18:48.260 --> 01:18:51.319
so you know. You and I come up with some pretty

01:18:51.319 --> 01:18:53.279
interesting stuff, so I'd say, yeah, you are.

01:18:53.500 --> 01:18:56.880
Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you. Yep. Okay,

01:18:57.140 --> 01:19:02.500
I've got a story. Then I had AI write a list

01:19:02.500 --> 01:19:06.279
according to this story. Okay. So this is about

01:19:06.279 --> 01:19:09.939
bubble gum. Okay, so AI wrote a list about bad

01:19:09.939 --> 01:19:12.579
bubblegum flavors. So I think you could imagine,

01:19:12.760 --> 01:19:15.119
you know, AI's done a pretty good job so far

01:19:15.119 --> 01:19:17.680
on all the other stuff that I've had to do. So

01:19:17.680 --> 01:19:21.020
this is a lady in Ontario who's being sued for

01:19:21.020 --> 01:19:24.180
malicious actions that led to pain and embarrassment

01:19:24.180 --> 01:19:28.659
after she secretly put chewed warm bubblegum

01:19:28.659 --> 01:19:33.359
in a stocking cap of Janine Byers was putting

01:19:33.359 --> 01:19:37.500
on her head to go outside. So, needless to say,

01:19:37.520 --> 01:19:39.960
the joke wasn't really a prank when Janine had

01:19:39.960 --> 01:19:43.979
to have her head shaved because of the gum. Yikes.

01:19:44.420 --> 01:19:46.680
Now, we all know this. We know people have done

01:19:46.680 --> 01:19:49.380
this as a child or something. Putting it in a

01:19:49.380 --> 01:19:53.119
stocking cap to warm chewed up gum. That's pretty

01:19:53.119 --> 01:19:55.539
vicious. You would know that when they take that

01:19:55.539 --> 01:19:59.680
cap off that, number one, taking the cap off

01:19:59.680 --> 01:20:02.000
is going to hurt like hell. Number two, you're

01:20:02.000 --> 01:20:03.500
probably going to have to have your hair cut

01:20:03.500 --> 01:20:09.369
if not shaved. Yeah. Rachel White of Cambridge,

01:20:09.829 --> 01:20:13.590
Ontario, I guess the other lady, Janine Byers,

01:20:13.609 --> 01:20:17.529
put the gun in the cow. Yeah. Okay. And Rachel

01:20:17.529 --> 01:20:20.250
White of Cambridge, Ontario, is asking for $100

01:20:20.250 --> 01:20:23.750
,000 in pain and suffering and damages caused

01:20:23.750 --> 01:20:27.409
by the supposed prank. By the way, which she

01:20:27.409 --> 01:20:30.890
did win. Oh, okay. But I found that out later

01:20:30.890 --> 01:20:34.729
after I went and I put this article down. But

01:20:34.729 --> 01:20:38.069
she did win that. Yeah. And the other lady had

01:20:38.069 --> 01:20:40.270
a lot of community time. She didn't go to jail,

01:20:40.350 --> 01:20:43.170
but she had community service. I mean, it was

01:20:43.170 --> 01:20:46.529
a lot, but it was like four months of it. Oh.

01:20:46.750 --> 01:20:49.670
Yeah. She probably would have preferred to go

01:20:49.670 --> 01:20:51.409
to jail, get it over with. That's what I think.

01:20:51.409 --> 01:20:53.189
I think they said, don't throw her in jail. I'll

01:20:53.189 --> 01:20:55.270
be over in a couple weeks. Make her do community

01:20:55.270 --> 01:20:57.770
service for four or five months. I think it was

01:20:57.770 --> 01:21:00.609
like four months of community service. And basically,

01:21:00.649 --> 01:21:03.810
the way it read was, every time she wasn't at

01:21:03.810 --> 01:21:06.449
work, or sleeping, she was doing this community

01:21:06.449 --> 01:21:08.729
service. So she had no other life besides work

01:21:08.729 --> 01:21:10.750
and community service. That's fitting. Yeah,

01:21:10.770 --> 01:21:13.789
so it sounds like they did pretty good on the

01:21:13.789 --> 01:21:17.850
punishment. Yeah. Okay, well, Jeffy X had to

01:21:17.850 --> 01:21:20.029
go to AI for this. He couldn't break into anything.

01:21:20.170 --> 01:21:23.869
I think it's Sergeant Pepper outfit that he keeps

01:21:23.869 --> 01:21:26.289
wearing that he would never, you know, wash it.

01:21:26.970 --> 01:21:29.729
Rob Embroider gave this loincloth with his toes.

01:21:31.800 --> 01:21:34.960
So he came up with chewing gum flavors that have

01:21:34.960 --> 01:21:38.840
failed. Okay. Okay. The first one that failed,

01:21:38.880 --> 01:21:41.579
according to AI, was hot dog water flavored chewing

01:21:41.579 --> 01:21:47.140
gum. I think, you know, I think so. Yeah. Unless

01:21:47.140 --> 01:21:49.460
it's Costco hot dogs. Those are pretty good,

01:21:49.479 --> 01:21:53.520
yeah. Those are good, yeah. Yeah, just like hot

01:21:53.520 --> 01:22:01.310
dog water over ice on a hot day. Or the next

01:22:01.310 --> 01:22:04.229
one that failed was cream corn flavored bubble

01:22:04.229 --> 01:22:06.350
gum. Oh, that would be awful. Can you imagine

01:22:06.350 --> 01:22:11.210
the texture? Oh, God. What the hell was that?

01:22:11.449 --> 01:22:13.729
You try to blow a bubble and then pop would be

01:22:13.729 --> 01:22:18.289
this wet splat. And little pieces of corn all

01:22:18.289 --> 01:22:22.569
over your face. Wow, that's nasty. Looked like

01:22:22.569 --> 01:22:28.149
someone took a dump on your face. The next one

01:22:28.149 --> 01:22:33.859
that failed was tuna melt. flavored wow i think

01:22:33.859 --> 01:22:35.899
i would go ahead and say yeah that's probably

01:22:35.899 --> 01:22:40.840
a fail yeah so if that wasn't enough the next

01:22:40.840 --> 01:22:45.319
one would be ketchup flavored no no no if you're

01:22:45.319 --> 01:22:47.279
eating it with fries but then you'd have to eat

01:22:47.279 --> 01:22:49.380
the gum which would erase the purpose of having

01:22:49.380 --> 01:22:52.260
them but imagine just eating a bowl of ketchup

01:22:52.260 --> 01:22:58.170
spoon by spoon no no So I think I would agree

01:22:58.170 --> 01:23:00.810
with that. So far, I think the AI has come up

01:23:00.810 --> 01:23:02.970
with some stuff that's probably pretty close

01:23:02.970 --> 01:23:06.989
to being good. The next one I agree with wholeheartedly,

01:23:07.050 --> 01:23:08.670
because I can't stand this shit normally, and

01:23:08.670 --> 01:23:13.649
that's Pickle Loaf. Pickle Juice would be okay,

01:23:13.710 --> 01:23:17.189
but Pickle Loaf, no. Who is the person that hated

01:23:17.189 --> 01:23:19.390
humanity that bad that they came up with Pickle?

01:23:19.899 --> 01:23:22.039
You know, I think it was more of, here's all

01:23:22.039 --> 01:23:24.439
this waste and scrap that I have to throw away.

01:23:24.520 --> 01:23:26.680
Maybe I'll just mash it together into a loaf

01:23:26.680 --> 01:23:28.680
and make people pay for it. And someone will

01:23:28.680 --> 01:23:30.979
buy it, which they do. Yeah. Because they still

01:23:30.979 --> 01:23:34.100
sell it at stores. Yep. So, yeah, that was one

01:23:34.100 --> 01:23:36.380
of those industrial food waste products that

01:23:36.380 --> 01:23:38.539
was like, instead of paying to throw it away,

01:23:38.720 --> 01:23:42.239
let's just charge for it. Yeah. Rubes will buy

01:23:42.239 --> 01:23:46.100
it. It's like regurgitated meat and vegetables

01:23:46.100 --> 01:23:54.479
with glue. Yes. The next one that AI said was

01:23:54.479 --> 01:23:57.060
a bad idea would be broccoli flavored chewing

01:23:57.060 --> 01:23:59.060
gum. Oh, yeah. I think I would agree with that

01:23:59.060 --> 01:24:01.760
100%. I mean, I like broccoli, but sometimes

01:24:01.760 --> 01:24:03.619
when you're cooking it, it smells like farts.

01:24:03.720 --> 01:24:05.979
Oh, it does. It just does. Yeah, and then later

01:24:05.979 --> 01:24:08.079
on it smells like farts too, ironically. Yeah,

01:24:08.079 --> 01:24:09.859
cabbage is the same way. Yeah, yeah. When you're

01:24:09.859 --> 01:24:11.899
sitting in your chair at home, yeah. And then

01:24:11.899 --> 01:24:13.899
you fart and it smells like farts. Yeah, it smells

01:24:13.899 --> 01:24:18.750
like broccoli farts. Yes. The next one I think

01:24:18.750 --> 01:24:21.970
I agree with because I was subject to tasting

01:24:21.970 --> 01:24:25.829
some of this when I was younger after maybe saying

01:24:25.829 --> 01:24:27.689
a dirty word or something I wasn't supposed to.

01:24:27.689 --> 01:24:31.109
That would be Dawn dish soap flavored. I think

01:24:31.109 --> 01:24:35.270
so. I think so. Yeah, I remember not rinsing

01:24:35.270 --> 01:24:38.689
my coffee carafe well enough once. There was

01:24:38.689 --> 01:24:41.250
a little bit of soap flavor left and a whole

01:24:41.250 --> 01:24:44.470
pot of coffee tasted like soap. I did not drink

01:24:44.470 --> 01:24:47.630
it. I've done that before, too. I'd pour the

01:24:47.630 --> 01:24:52.069
whole thing out and start over. The next one

01:24:52.069 --> 01:24:55.489
would be leaf lettuce. Wow, yeah, that'd be just

01:24:55.489 --> 01:24:57.989
kind of a waste of time. It would be like, what

01:24:57.989 --> 01:25:02.130
flavor is this? Iceberg lettuce. Iceberg lettuce.

01:25:02.510 --> 01:25:09.550
Water. Yeah. The next one I agree with 100%.

01:25:09.550 --> 01:25:13.470
Dab. Damp mop flavored chewing gum. I think I

01:25:13.470 --> 01:25:16.770
would agree with that. Yeah, that musty... I

01:25:16.770 --> 01:25:18.949
mean, when you smell it, you just know that you're

01:25:18.949 --> 01:25:21.689
getting unhealthier. Yeah, it's like, ugh. It's

01:25:21.689 --> 01:25:23.489
like, this is what black mold probably smells

01:25:23.489 --> 01:25:25.710
like right here. It feels like there are already

01:25:25.710 --> 01:25:28.670
colonies in my lungs. Yeah, they're already in

01:25:28.670 --> 01:25:31.329
there causing all kinds of cancers. Oh, gosh.

01:25:32.250 --> 01:25:36.510
And emphysemas and what have you. And then finally,

01:25:36.630 --> 01:25:39.390
the one that AI created was NyQuil flavored chewing

01:25:39.390 --> 01:25:44.270
gum. Ooh, that would be nasty. I would agree.

01:25:44.770 --> 01:25:47.869
100%. Here's a flavor I want us to get. Would

01:25:47.869 --> 01:25:51.510
it be a bad flavor or a good flavor or kind of

01:25:51.510 --> 01:25:54.670
both at the same time? And that's vagina -flavored

01:25:54.670 --> 01:25:58.869
chewing gum. Oh, but human vagina. Let me put

01:25:58.869 --> 01:26:02.270
it that way. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. That could

01:26:02.270 --> 01:26:04.909
be like anything. It could be good or bad. It

01:26:04.909 --> 01:26:06.689
could be good. It could be bad. Maybe you like

01:26:06.689 --> 01:26:08.170
it for the first ten minutes and then you're

01:26:08.170 --> 01:26:09.689
like, I'm really tired of this. Yeah, I'm tired

01:26:09.689 --> 01:26:11.569
of this gum. I think I'm going to get rid of

01:26:11.569 --> 01:26:16.609
it. Imagine the breath it would give you. True.

01:26:19.090 --> 01:26:21.250
But you know, I think there is a market for that.

01:26:21.449 --> 01:26:23.590
Yeah, as a slip of the tongue, you have shitty

01:26:23.590 --> 01:26:27.149
breath. Oh, this is true. And now if Gwyneth

01:26:27.149 --> 01:26:29.829
Paltrow can sell a candle that smells like her

01:26:29.829 --> 01:26:32.359
twat. Then we can sell bubblegum that tastes

01:26:32.359 --> 01:26:36.279
like a twat. I forgot about that. Yeah. You're

01:26:36.279 --> 01:26:40.800
talking about fooling yourself. No kidding. I

01:26:40.800 --> 01:26:43.239
mean, I hope they tested those candles to make

01:26:43.239 --> 01:26:45.600
sure none of her vaginal secretions are actually

01:26:45.600 --> 01:26:49.039
in the candle that you're burning. Oh, if you

01:26:49.039 --> 01:26:51.420
will. If people start dropping dead, we know

01:26:51.420 --> 01:26:55.140
why. Yeah. I mean, I'm perfectly fine with someone

01:26:55.140 --> 01:26:58.060
finding Gwyneth Paltrow attractive, but I don't.

01:26:58.060 --> 01:27:00.819
I don't want anything to do with her. I don't

01:27:00.819 --> 01:27:02.659
want to look at her. I don't want to hear her.

01:27:02.760 --> 01:27:04.579
I don't want to see any of her acting performances.

01:27:04.939 --> 01:27:08.359
She repels me. That's okay, because I'm sure

01:27:08.359 --> 01:27:12.359
I would repel her, but, you know. She just has

01:27:12.359 --> 01:27:16.079
a look that doesn't have a look. Yeah, she looks

01:27:16.079 --> 01:27:19.760
like a partially completed painting of a person.

01:27:20.289 --> 01:27:22.750
Yes. It's all there on the surface, but there's

01:27:22.750 --> 01:27:24.289
nothing beneath. It's kind of like, yeah, when

01:27:24.289 --> 01:27:26.569
she was formed, you know, the sperm and the egg

01:27:26.569 --> 01:27:28.229
and all that, they're just like, they bypass

01:27:28.229 --> 01:27:31.689
the face. You open up her head and look inside,

01:27:31.789 --> 01:27:34.210
and it's just like moaning wind noises down a

01:27:34.210 --> 01:27:38.449
cave. No, there's nobody home here. Like one

01:27:38.449 --> 01:27:41.229
of those big windmills or something. I mean,

01:27:44.250 --> 01:27:46.710
she married the Coldplay guy, and Coldplay's

01:27:46.710 --> 01:27:49.010
music sucks, so you know she can't have much

01:27:49.010 --> 01:27:52.069
intelligence. I think most of it's inspired by

01:27:52.069 --> 01:27:54.170
her, depending on how bad the music is. Yeah.

01:27:57.810 --> 01:28:03.369
The way the outro's a bit jaded. I don't even

01:28:03.369 --> 01:28:06.170
want to think about her having one. I'm just

01:28:06.170 --> 01:28:08.649
going to pretend she features us like a Barbie

01:28:08.649 --> 01:28:15.390
doll. I agree. I agree. Very cool. All right.

01:28:16.130 --> 01:28:18.210
Well, that was the end of that list. All righty.

01:28:18.560 --> 01:28:21.600
You got something? I've got more continuation

01:28:21.600 --> 01:28:24.399
of the really strange band names that we are

01:28:24.399 --> 01:28:26.420
going through. Let's hear it. We're up to the

01:28:26.420 --> 01:28:31.079
J's here. The first one we have is the Jazz Iguanas.

01:28:32.859 --> 01:28:36.720
That's a little weird. Next up we have Jehovah's

01:28:36.720 --> 01:28:41.420
Waitresses. And these are real band names, right?

01:28:41.420 --> 01:28:43.319
These are actually registered band names, yeah.

01:28:44.539 --> 01:28:48.090
Jehovah's Witness Protection Program. Very cool.

01:28:49.149 --> 01:28:53.729
Here's a band called Jerry's Kids. Uh -huh. Jif

01:28:53.729 --> 01:28:59.789
and the Choosy Mothers. Even if you don't know

01:28:59.789 --> 01:29:03.090
what a choosy mother is, it sounds good. I just

01:29:03.090 --> 01:29:06.289
like the sound of it. Yeah. Joan of Arkansas.

01:29:07.390 --> 01:29:11.630
I like that one. Joe Puke and the Chunky Bits.

01:29:13.729 --> 01:29:16.250
That was probably named after a real -life experience.

01:29:17.180 --> 01:29:19.460
Now, any of these band names, you can drive up

01:29:19.460 --> 01:29:22.060
to a bar and see it on the marquee. So just imagine

01:29:22.060 --> 01:29:26.880
seeing that. This next one, Johnny Cougar Concentration

01:29:26.880 --> 01:29:36.899
Camp. That must have been so much fun to come

01:29:36.899 --> 01:29:47.840
up with that name. John Denver's Co -Pilot. The

01:29:47.840 --> 01:29:52.500
Juggling Death Squad. And here's one that was

01:29:52.500 --> 01:29:57.340
almost me. Junior High Burnout. And me. Yeah,

01:29:57.399 --> 01:29:59.340
I was getting pretty burned out in Junior High.

01:29:59.560 --> 01:30:02.300
Oh gosh, yeah, same here. Okay, the K list. There's

01:30:02.300 --> 01:30:04.720
not too many in the K list. First up we have

01:30:04.720 --> 01:30:11.960
the Kamikaze Sex Pilots. Okay. Kathleen Turner

01:30:11.960 --> 01:30:22.289
Overdrive. I just love that one. Randy Bachman's

01:30:22.289 --> 01:30:24.989
going, what? What do they do in my name? Oh,

01:30:24.989 --> 01:30:29.029
those bastards. I'm going to sue. Kerrigan's

01:30:29.029 --> 01:30:35.130
knees. That's a Nancy Kerrigan. Google it. The

01:30:35.130 --> 01:30:38.489
killer hayseeds. I've heard of them before. I've

01:30:38.489 --> 01:30:43.890
heard of them too. Kinky slinky. Okay. The kit

01:30:43.890 --> 01:30:48.750
shickers. You have to be really careful pronouncing

01:30:48.750 --> 01:30:51.069
that one. Yes, and that's why they do that. Yes.

01:30:51.590 --> 01:30:56.250
K -Y and the Backsliders. Oh, that sounds nasty.

01:30:56.409 --> 01:31:01.069
Oh, that's horrible. I love it. Okay, and the

01:31:01.069 --> 01:31:07.369
L list. Leonard Skinhead. Leonard Skinhead, yeah.

01:31:07.489 --> 01:31:09.510
I've heard of them. Yeah, but it was Zach Wild

01:31:09.510 --> 01:31:13.850
with a couple other people. Yeah, they were doing

01:31:13.850 --> 01:31:17.029
Skinner covers only in Los Angeles. Like the

01:31:17.029 --> 01:31:20.590
rainbow and Roxy. Yeah. Under the name Leonard

01:31:20.590 --> 01:31:22.590
Skinhead. Leonard Skinhead. That's what's going

01:31:22.590 --> 01:31:25.609
on. I love it. That's an excellent name. Lee

01:31:25.609 --> 01:31:35.840
Harvey Keitel. That might be my favorite. I'm

01:31:35.840 --> 01:31:38.399
going to put a star by that one. That's like

01:31:38.399 --> 01:31:42.779
Marilyn Manson. Yes. Twiggy Ramirez and Madonna

01:31:42.779 --> 01:31:51.560
Wayne Gacy. That was good. Real good. Lee Presson

01:31:51.560 --> 01:31:57.619
and the Nails. I like that. Lesbian Dopeheads

01:31:57.619 --> 01:32:05.010
on Mopeds. Okay. The Lost Underpants of Doom.

01:32:06.069 --> 01:32:12.750
Okay. Lubricated Goat. I think that happens a

01:32:12.750 --> 01:32:14.449
lot out there in the sticks on a Friday night.

01:32:14.470 --> 01:32:17.149
I think so. I think that in Arkansas they call

01:32:17.149 --> 01:32:23.689
that Tuesday. Yes. Louisiana, too. Hey. The Luminous

01:32:23.689 --> 01:32:27.479
Toilet Bowls. You actually, a luminous toilet

01:32:27.479 --> 01:32:29.460
bowl wouldn't be a bad idea. No, they actually

01:32:29.460 --> 01:32:31.420
make them. They make kits for that. You haven't

01:32:31.420 --> 01:32:34.119
seen them? No, I haven't. Yeah. That's a good,

01:32:34.159 --> 01:32:40.680
actually, good idea. Lung mustard. No. And the

01:32:40.680 --> 01:32:47.779
lust penguins. The lust penguins. All right,

01:32:47.779 --> 01:32:52.699
in the M list, we have maggot sandwich. Okay.

01:32:52.979 --> 01:32:59.579
The Manson -Nixon line. To hell with Mason Dixon.

01:32:59.659 --> 01:33:05.979
You got the Manson Nixon. Mount Seed Helen. Mount

01:33:05.979 --> 01:33:08.539
Seed Helen? Mount Seed, like Mount Seed Tongue.

01:33:08.560 --> 01:33:11.920
Oh, Mount Seed. Mount Seed Helen. Cool. Mary

01:33:11.920 --> 01:33:17.619
Kay and the Cosmetics. Mary Tyler Morphine. Oh,

01:33:17.699 --> 01:33:20.279
I like that one. Here's another one I've heard

01:33:20.279 --> 01:33:23.119
of. The Meat Puppets. Yeah, oh yeah. That's actually

01:33:23.119 --> 01:33:25.199
one of the bands that Greg Ginn screwed over

01:33:25.199 --> 01:33:27.300
and wouldn't pay the royalties to. Oh, was it?

01:33:27.420 --> 01:33:31.640
They sued him. I believe it. Mechanical Tampon

01:33:31.640 --> 01:33:39.920

01:33:39.920 --> 01:33:43.579
Issues. Men With Issues? Men With Issues. Okay.

The Minstrel Cramps. Oh, I've heard of them.

01:33:48.119 --> 01:33:54.750
I have too. Mr. Holland's anus. Oh, that's a

01:33:54.750 --> 01:34:01.149
good one. The Mr. T experience. That would actually

01:34:01.149 --> 01:34:02.750
probably be pretty fun. That would be great.

01:34:02.829 --> 01:34:06.949
Imagine Mr. T up there singing hardcore. Whoa,

01:34:06.989 --> 01:34:15.050
sucker. Moist fist. The morbid tavern apple choir.

01:34:18.310 --> 01:34:25.399
The morning shakes. The Muscular Lesbians. Mussolini

Head Kick. Mustard Plug. Mustard Plug. Mustard

01:34:31.760 --> 01:34:35.920
Plug. Oh, I don't know about that one. All right.

01:34:36.159 --> 01:34:38.140
You want the ends, or do you want to move on?

01:34:38.359 --> 01:34:41.279
Keep going. Okay. Under the ends, we have Naked

01:34:41.279 --> 01:34:47.920
Potato. Okay. Naugahyde Chihuahuas. Okay. Navigators

01:34:47.920 --> 01:34:53.539
of Carrots. I like this one. Nearly died laughing

01:34:53.539 --> 01:34:57.960
while shaving my butt. That's quite a bad name.

01:35:00.039 --> 01:35:02.800
Ned's atomic dustbin. I've heard of them. I've

01:35:02.800 --> 01:35:09.800
heard, yeah. New squids on the dock. That is

01:35:09.800 --> 01:35:14.460
awesome. The no -pants bandits. Okay, that's

01:35:14.460 --> 01:35:17.619
interesting. Here's another good one. Nocturnal

01:35:17.619 --> 01:35:28.539
emissions. Wow. Oh yeah. Nomad Nipples. Noodle

01:35:28.539 --> 01:35:33.180

His Other Possibilities. Very cool. Operation

01:35:52.029 --> 01:35:57.210
Cliff Clavin. From Cheers. Yes, I got it now.

01:35:57.329 --> 01:35:59.390
It took me a second to figure out where that

01:35:59.390 --> 01:36:04.609
came from, but yeah. Organic Condom Mazda Drugs.

01:36:05.430 --> 01:36:09.510
I don't know what that means. I don't either,

01:36:09.609 --> 01:36:14.930
but... Out of Godzilla's Butt. Like it? Ovarian

01:36:14.930 --> 01:36:22.329
Trolley. And Aussie beard spaghetti. I've never

01:36:22.329 --> 01:36:24.810
seen Aussie with a beard. There's a couple of

01:36:24.810 --> 01:36:28.050
pictures of him with a goatee, but not a beard.

01:36:28.130 --> 01:36:31.229
I mean, he probably did, because that was the

01:36:31.229 --> 01:36:34.670
style back then for a while. So, yeah, okay.

01:36:35.449 --> 01:36:37.149
All right, let's run through the P's. We've got

01:36:37.149 --> 01:36:39.149
some good ones here. First up, we have Pabst

01:36:39.149 --> 01:36:42.930
Smear. Like my dream, Pabst Smear on the beach.

01:36:45.330 --> 01:36:48.989
Painful Rectal Itch. That would be a good punk

01:36:48.989 --> 01:36:51.770
name. That would be a great one. Paul Will Eat

01:36:51.770 --> 01:36:59.770
Himself. Peace, Love, and Pit Bulls. Okay. The

01:36:59.770 --> 01:37:02.649
Peanut Butter Conspiracy. I mentioned them earlier.

01:37:02.949 --> 01:37:05.430
Yes, you did. They were actually a 60s kind of

01:37:05.430 --> 01:37:07.779
psychedelic prog rock band. I can't believe I

01:37:07.779 --> 01:37:10.479
never heard. Okay. Yeah. See, I was wrong about

01:37:10.479 --> 01:37:12.380
the peanut butter conspiracy because I remember

01:37:12.380 --> 01:37:15.640
hearing a techno pop song called Emo Sucks by

01:37:15.640 --> 01:37:18.359
a band called the Peanut Butter Conspiracy. But

01:37:18.359 --> 01:37:20.079
I tried to look it up and it's just not there.

01:37:20.699 --> 01:37:22.859
There is a song called Emo Sucks, but it's by

01:37:22.859 --> 01:37:23.800
somebody totally different. Is it something like

01:37:23.800 --> 01:37:25.600
you remembered, but it was a little bit different

01:37:25.600 --> 01:37:29.300
maybe? Yeah, it was on a podcast I downloaded,

01:37:29.420 --> 01:37:31.140
and it was one of my favorite tracks, and I'd

01:37:31.140 --> 01:37:33.260
listen to it over and over and over. And I know

01:37:33.260 --> 01:37:36.359
it's called Emo Sucks. And I thought it was called

01:37:36.359 --> 01:37:38.300
By the Peanut Butter Conspiracy, but apparently

01:37:38.300 --> 01:37:45.279
not. Okay. Pepto -Dismal. I like that one. Peter

01:37:45.279 --> 01:37:49.420
and the Test Tube Babies. I like that one. Pheno

01:37:49.420 --> 01:37:56.939
Barbie dolls. That's good. Phlegm Fatale. Phlegm

01:37:56.939 --> 01:38:01.380
Fatale. Another good one. Phone bill from hell.

01:38:04.039 --> 01:38:08.479
Who the hell kept calling Kangaroo? The pissed

01:38:08.479 --> 01:38:12.460
off postman. Oh, I like that one. Oh, yeah. Poo

01:38:12.460 --> 01:38:15.539
on a stick. Oh, that's a good one. Poop shovel.

01:38:16.060 --> 01:38:20.520
Okay, I like that one. Pontius Copilot. Pontius

01:38:20.520 --> 01:38:25.960
Copilot. I didn't know we had a copilot. Those

01:38:25.960 --> 01:38:27.600
are the ones I like the best where they just

01:38:27.600 --> 01:38:30.020
modify a name. They modify a name in history

01:38:30.020 --> 01:38:39.180
and go with it. Porn on the cob. That might be

01:38:39.180 --> 01:38:42.000
my favorite. I don't know. That's just so good.

01:38:42.460 --> 01:38:44.300
That is really cool. It can mean whatever you

01:38:44.300 --> 01:38:47.170
want it to mean. Yeah. Yeah, that's like one

01:38:47.170 --> 01:38:49.289
of those ones where it's kind of like, okay,

01:38:49.449 --> 01:38:52.489
I can fit that in a lot of different angles.

01:38:54.909 --> 01:38:58.770
Possum juice. Possum juice. I don't want to know,

01:38:58.869 --> 01:39:12.270
but it sounds cool. Poultry in motion. Pretentious

01:39:12.270 --> 01:39:18.119
flame dogs. Psycho sluts from hell. I've heard

01:39:18.119 --> 01:39:21.659
of them. Public enema. I've heard of them too.

01:39:22.640 --> 01:39:28.420
And pure bastard extract. I love that one. 100

01:39:28.420 --> 01:39:36.239
% pure bastard extract. So tell me if you want

01:39:36.239 --> 01:39:39.899
to keep going. Why not? These are good. We'll

01:39:39.899 --> 01:39:43.520
do what are the next ones. Under the Q, there's

01:39:43.520 --> 01:39:46.520
only three under Q. Oh, okay. Quasimodo and the

01:39:46.520 --> 01:39:51.359
Unix. Okay. Queer Wookiee. And one that I've

01:39:51.359 --> 01:39:54.239
heard of, Question Mark and the Mysterians. I've

01:39:54.239 --> 01:39:55.439
never heard of that one, but I like that one.

01:39:55.439 --> 01:39:59.720
It was a 60s band. Okay. I'm blanking on the

01:39:59.720 --> 01:40:03.020
song, but there really was a song, there really

01:40:03.020 --> 01:40:05.279
was a band called Question Mark and the Mysterians.

01:40:05.659 --> 01:40:08.420
Okay, I like that. Yeah. Okay. You want to do

01:40:08.420 --> 01:40:10.579
the R's and then we'll cut it there so we have

01:40:10.579 --> 01:40:13.119
something next. All right. Under the R's, we

01:40:13.119 --> 01:40:18.560
have Rainbow Butt Monkeys. And that's actually,

01:40:18.659 --> 01:40:21.079
that was the original name of a band that you've

01:40:21.079 --> 01:40:22.920
probably heard of, but I forget which band it

01:40:22.920 --> 01:40:24.880
was. But they later went on to become something

01:40:24.880 --> 01:40:27.979
else that you've probably heard of. Okay. Rebel

01:40:27.979 --> 01:40:32.100
Without Applause. I think I've heard that. Yeah,

01:40:32.100 --> 01:40:34.220
I think I've heard that. Hey there, slap nuts.

01:40:34.340 --> 01:40:44.800
It's time for the Creeps Music News. During an

01:40:44.800 --> 01:40:47.300
appearance on July 8th episode of SiriusXM's

01:40:47.300 --> 01:40:49.779
Trunk Nation, Tony Omi spoke about some of his

01:40:49.779 --> 01:40:52.159
upcoming music -related projects, including a

01:40:52.159 --> 01:40:53.819
full -length collection of new material from

01:40:53.819 --> 01:40:56.920
legendary Black Sabbath guitarist. Tony said,

01:40:57.079 --> 01:41:08.829
as transcribed by Blabbermouth .net, But I'm

01:41:08.829 --> 01:41:10.890
continuing next week to try to finish off when

01:41:10.890 --> 01:41:13.390
I started with this album. And then who knows

01:41:13.390 --> 01:41:16.170
what I'm going to do. It's great, really. Because

01:41:16.170 --> 01:41:18.510
if something pops up, I'll do it if I want to

01:41:18.510 --> 01:41:21.090
do it. Asked if his upcoming album is a Tony

01:41:21.090 --> 01:41:23.569
Omi solo record with guests on it, like he's

01:41:23.569 --> 01:41:26.310
done before with the legendary 2000s IOMI, the

01:41:26.310 --> 01:41:29.329
guitarist responded, At the moment, no. I've

01:41:29.329 --> 01:41:31.369
got one singer on it, which I originally thought

01:41:31.369 --> 01:41:33.890
of different singers. But it started off as it

01:41:33.890 --> 01:41:35.810
was going to be an instrumental album, and it's

01:41:35.810 --> 01:41:38.310
gone from that into a full -fledged Tony Iommi

01:41:38.310 --> 01:41:41.029
project. But then I thought, oh, wait, I want

01:41:41.029 --> 01:41:43.310
to try it with a singer. So that's what I've

01:41:43.310 --> 01:41:46.329
been doing. This is Johnny Rohypnol. That was

01:41:46.329 --> 01:41:49.069
your music news. And remember, bar chords are

01:41:49.069 --> 01:42:09.310
bullshit. REO Speed Dealer. And this is actually

01:42:09.310 --> 01:42:13.069
a local band, Rhythm Method. Yeah. Yeah, a guy

01:42:13.069 --> 01:42:16.369
I went to school with, Kenny Russell. I actually

01:42:16.369 --> 01:42:18.289
auditioned for Rhythm Method once. I've actually

01:42:18.289 --> 01:42:20.569
seen them before and opened up for other bands.

01:42:20.750 --> 01:42:24.399
Yeah, I like them. They're good. When I auditioned

01:42:24.399 --> 01:42:26.340
for him, their drummer was getting a divorce

01:42:26.340 --> 01:42:28.359
and was going to have his kids every other weekend,

01:42:28.520 --> 01:42:32.199
so he needed a drummer to fill in when he couldn't

01:42:32.199 --> 01:42:35.560
play. I didn't get the job, but I heard later

01:42:35.560 --> 01:42:37.960
that the drummer rearranged his visitation so

01:42:37.960 --> 01:42:40.819
he could stay in the band full time. Oh, okay,

01:42:40.939 --> 01:42:42.840
so they didn't end up getting anybody. Yeah,

01:42:42.840 --> 01:42:45.619
he probably thought, I might get replaced here.

01:42:46.159 --> 01:42:50.699
Just go ahead, I'll figure this out. The Rolling

01:42:50.699 --> 01:42:58.159
Blackouts. And Ron's? Yes. I'm cracking up already.

01:42:58.739 --> 01:43:06.899
Ronnie James deodorant. That one is fantastic.

01:43:07.819 --> 01:43:09.899
I'm going to put a star by that one too. I want

01:43:09.899 --> 01:43:12.220
to know how long ago they were out and if he

01:43:12.220 --> 01:43:15.079
knew about that because it probably drove him

01:43:15.079 --> 01:43:18.460
nuts. That's insane. You don't take my name like

01:43:18.460 --> 01:43:21.039
that. Ronnie James deodorant. Don't take my name

01:43:21.039 --> 01:43:24.399
in vain. Everyone in that band must die immediately.

01:43:26.439 --> 01:43:32.159
Rubber Nipple Salesman. Okay. Rug Burns. Okay.

01:43:33.279 --> 01:43:43.020
Rumpel Foreskins. And The Runs for the Z. Now,

01:43:43.020 --> 01:43:48.109
I do remember a band called The Foreskins. That

01:43:48.109 --> 01:43:50.409
was a local band. Yeah. It was the number four

01:43:50.409 --> 01:43:53.270
and then S -K -Y -N -S. Yeah, I remember those.

01:43:53.430 --> 01:43:57.310
But that didn't make the list here. Okay. Maybe

01:43:57.310 --> 01:43:59.229
they never registered their name. They may not

01:43:59.229 --> 01:44:01.029
have. I don't know. I do remember them, though.

01:44:01.310 --> 01:44:04.729
Yeah. All right. That was excellent. We'll be

01:44:04.729 --> 01:44:07.750
up for the S's next time. All right. How long

01:44:07.750 --> 01:44:11.170
have we got on this one? An hour and 40. All

01:44:11.170 --> 01:44:13.189
right. You want to keep going or you want to

01:44:13.189 --> 01:44:14.750
go? Okay, let's keep going. Just a little more.

01:44:14.869 --> 01:44:19.159
All right. Let's see. Don't figure out which

01:44:19.159 --> 01:44:25.279
one to go next. Want me to talk about something

01:44:25.279 --> 01:44:27.600
in the meantime? Yes, please. Okay. Recently,

01:44:27.720 --> 01:44:32.979
I was watching a video about Magnetone amplifiers.

01:44:33.579 --> 01:44:37.399
This is the one that Slash now endorses. In fact,

01:44:37.420 --> 01:44:41.340
he's got a signature model of Magnetone. If you

01:44:41.340 --> 01:44:43.680
look, there are a lot of musicians that are starting

01:44:43.680 --> 01:44:48.489
to switch over to Magnetone. And I looked into

01:44:48.489 --> 01:44:52.529
it and they are enormously expensive. I think

01:44:52.529 --> 01:44:55.590
one of the cheapest ones you can get into is

01:44:55.590 --> 01:44:59.829
around $1 ,200 to $1 ,500 to start with. And

01:44:59.829 --> 01:45:04.510
I started wondering who can afford enough of

01:45:04.510 --> 01:45:07.670
these amps that the company can stay in business.

01:45:09.050 --> 01:45:11.050
Because, you know, you'll run into some people

01:45:11.050 --> 01:45:12.510
who's like, well, I'm only going to have one

01:45:12.510 --> 01:45:14.369
amp, and I'm going to save up until I get the

01:45:14.369 --> 01:45:16.729
best, and I'm going to save up for this magnetone,

01:45:16.810 --> 01:45:19.149
blah, blah. But that's not how you stay in business.

01:45:19.310 --> 01:45:21.649
You stay in business by selling your amp to half

01:45:21.649 --> 01:45:24.289
the people out there. Yes. Because just about

01:45:24.289 --> 01:45:26.649
everybody who plays guitar probably played through

01:45:26.649 --> 01:45:29.930
a Peavey at one point. Yes. Or owned one at one

01:45:29.930 --> 01:45:31.949
point. Or owned one at one point, yep. But if

01:45:31.949 --> 01:45:34.779
you've got these amps that are like... you know

01:45:34.779 --> 01:45:37.500
they're like super cars or mega yachts or something

01:45:37.500 --> 01:45:39.880
it's just like you sell very few and you have

01:45:39.880 --> 01:45:42.619
to like make it before you can get one you're

01:45:42.619 --> 01:45:44.380
not staying in business that way you're just

01:45:44.380 --> 01:45:47.800
not you know even if i had that much money to

01:45:47.800 --> 01:45:50.659
spend on a magnetone amp i would not because

01:45:50.659 --> 01:45:54.539
i could buy four other amps for the same amount

01:45:54.539 --> 01:45:57.079
of money and i'll get four amps yeah i know that's

01:45:57.079 --> 01:46:00.260
true because they're just so expensive and seriously

01:46:00.260 --> 01:46:05.340
i'm not i'm not bad picky on the sound. It's

01:46:05.340 --> 01:46:07.619
not like I'm ever going to record or tour or

01:46:07.619 --> 01:46:09.619
anything. I don't need my amplifier to sound

01:46:09.619 --> 01:46:13.819
completely professional. There are other amplifier

01:46:13.819 --> 01:46:16.199
makers that are kind of going that route of,

01:46:16.260 --> 01:46:19.100
we're super expensive, we're super elite, and

01:46:19.100 --> 01:46:22.020
you really made it if you could have our... you're

01:46:22.020 --> 01:46:24.319
not going to get very big. It's doing the Harley

01:46:24.319 --> 01:46:26.920
Davidson one where they try to categorize themselves

01:46:26.920 --> 01:46:29.239
in a much higher bracket than what they should

01:46:29.239 --> 01:46:31.779
be. And then five years from now, some other

01:46:31.779 --> 01:46:34.520
amp maker is going to claim that spot, and you're

01:46:34.520 --> 01:46:37.579
going to be done. You're just out the door. I

01:46:37.579 --> 01:46:41.359
found some more bullet points. I got two of them

01:46:41.359 --> 01:46:43.340
on this one, and I didn't even realize it. Yeah,

01:46:43.340 --> 01:46:47.239
let's bullet me. All right. There's so many lyrics

01:46:47.239 --> 01:46:49.720
that are just thrown in to fill a song. Is being

01:46:49.720 --> 01:46:54.439
a lyricist overrated? Yeah. Yeah. Well, any lyricist

01:46:54.439 --> 01:46:56.180
is overrated. I think so. A good one is not.

01:46:56.420 --> 01:47:00.079
A good one is underrated. Yeah. But at the same

01:47:00.079 --> 01:47:03.720
time, there are a ton of people who never pay

01:47:03.720 --> 01:47:05.819
attention to the words. No, I know. That's true.

01:47:05.859 --> 01:47:07.460
And that's another reason why they're overrated.

01:47:07.479 --> 01:47:09.859
That's a good point right there. Yeah. And there's

01:47:09.859 --> 01:47:12.840
so many people that, like, they know the song

01:47:12.840 --> 01:47:14.859
and they can kind of sing along, but they have

01:47:14.859 --> 01:47:16.840
no idea what the words are. They don't know what

01:47:16.840 --> 01:47:20.539
it's about. And they don't really care to know

01:47:20.539 --> 01:47:23.739
what it's about. I agree. And also, I remembered

01:47:23.739 --> 01:47:26.619
something. I couldn't find these, so I come up

01:47:26.619 --> 01:47:29.039
with a whole new set of bullet points. Oh, wow.

01:47:29.060 --> 01:47:32.619
And then I found these. Excellent. Okay. Will

01:47:32.619 --> 01:47:36.399
Alice Cooper have a huge send -off? I think so.

01:47:36.500 --> 01:47:38.380
Like Ozzy? I think so, too, but I don't think

01:47:38.380 --> 01:47:42.359
it's going to be like Ozzy's was that big. No,

01:47:42.420 --> 01:47:44.340
I don't think so. I think Alice's is as big as

01:47:44.340 --> 01:47:49.489
Ozzy was. No, no. I do think that he's going

01:47:49.489 --> 01:47:51.510
to have a big send -off and it might be like

01:47:51.510 --> 01:47:54.289
Madison Square Garden or something and like just

01:47:54.289 --> 01:47:57.430
one big show and like everybody he used to work

01:47:57.430 --> 01:47:59.250
with went on tour with or something like that

01:47:59.250 --> 01:48:01.630
and you know his good friends like maybe Rob

01:48:01.630 --> 01:48:05.649
Halford just shows up and yeah and you know he's

01:48:05.649 --> 01:48:07.710
he's worked with Slash on a number of albums

01:48:07.710 --> 01:48:11.789
he's worked with John Bon Jovi all sorts of people

01:48:11.789 --> 01:48:14.659
I could see him doing it in Detroit because that's

01:48:14.659 --> 01:48:16.439
his birth city. I think it'll be Detroit, yes.

01:48:16.479 --> 01:48:18.939
That's his birth city, and he really likes Detroit.

01:48:19.100 --> 01:48:21.819
He's always done a lot of memorable, important

01:48:21.819 --> 01:48:25.819
things in Detroit. So I could see him going back

01:48:25.819 --> 01:48:28.140
to his Detroit roots and having it there. I could

01:48:28.140 --> 01:48:30.760
too. Okay, all right. Yeah, we're on the same

01:48:30.760 --> 01:48:32.939
one. We think it'll be a huge sign -off. Not

01:48:32.939 --> 01:48:35.779
as big as back in the beginning, but it's going

01:48:35.779 --> 01:48:40.180
to be big. I think once Ozzy set the bar of here's

01:48:40.180 --> 01:48:42.880
how you do a send -off, I think a lot of other

01:48:42.880 --> 01:48:45.399
bands are like, oh yeah, we're doing that. But

01:48:45.399 --> 01:48:47.220
they need to do their own version because if

01:48:47.220 --> 01:48:50.800
they just copy Ozzy, they look pathetic. But

01:48:50.800 --> 01:48:53.659
I think a lot of bands are like, yeah, this is

01:48:53.659 --> 01:48:56.319
the kind of send -off we want to do. Yeah, I

01:48:56.319 --> 01:48:59.319
agree. I'm still waiting for the concert video

01:48:59.319 --> 01:49:02.439
to come out of Ozzy's send -off. I haven't seen

01:49:02.439 --> 01:49:03.819
it yet. It was supposed to come out in January.

01:49:04.520 --> 01:49:08.779
on theaters for like a weekend yeah i don't know

01:49:08.779 --> 01:49:11.060
why they haven't heard a word about it no i haven't

01:49:11.060 --> 01:49:13.680
either so maybe they decided not to because the

01:49:13.680 --> 01:49:16.079
internet has all of that yeah i figured it just

01:49:16.079 --> 01:49:18.380
went yeah who's going to come to the theater

01:49:18.380 --> 01:49:20.140
when you can just oh you can see it on youtube

01:49:20.140 --> 01:49:22.020
anyway or maybe him passing away had something

01:49:22.020 --> 01:49:23.800
to do with it too maybe they're kind of like

01:49:23.800 --> 01:49:25.859
it we don't really want to do it right now it's

01:49:25.859 --> 01:49:28.439
a little too fresh plus they have to work out

01:49:28.439 --> 01:49:33.060
getting all the rights releases for public appearance

01:49:33.060 --> 01:49:35.300
and public performance is probably just a real

01:49:35.300 --> 01:49:37.739
nightmare. Well, now that Ozzy's passed on, you

01:49:37.739 --> 01:49:39.680
might get a lot of fans coming back going, no,

01:49:39.680 --> 01:49:42.680
we want to cut now. Yeah. I can see that happening

01:49:42.680 --> 01:49:47.199
too. All right. After Ozzy, would Alice be the

01:49:47.199 --> 01:49:50.939
most beloved shock rocker ever? He would be up

01:49:50.939 --> 01:49:52.979
there. I would say so. I would say so, yeah.

01:49:53.079 --> 01:49:56.079
Kiss aren't really beloved in that way. Nobody

01:49:56.079 --> 01:50:00.060
has a problem with him. Yeah. Yeah, Kiss isn't,

01:50:00.060 --> 01:50:03.710
no. There's too much shit that happened. Ace

01:50:03.710 --> 01:50:06.369
just recently passed away, but all the stuff

01:50:06.369 --> 01:50:10.890
they said about him, said about Peter, the business

01:50:10.890 --> 01:50:15.250
dealings, the part where the music they didn't

01:50:15.250 --> 01:50:17.949
give a shit about. That's the thing about Kiss,

01:50:18.010 --> 01:50:20.050
is they've never been shy about letting you know

01:50:20.050 --> 01:50:22.189
they are businessmen running a business to make

01:50:22.189 --> 01:50:25.010
money. Makes them less personal. Yeah, and they

01:50:25.010 --> 01:50:26.890
don't care if you know it, and they count on

01:50:26.890 --> 01:50:29.819
their fans to be adult about it. But with Alice,

01:50:29.920 --> 01:50:33.100
it's always been about the fun. Yeah. Of course

01:50:33.100 --> 01:50:34.939
he makes money, and you always make sure he makes

01:50:34.939 --> 01:50:39.109
money. Yeah. publicly and out front it's like

01:50:39.109 --> 01:50:41.489
this is about the fun and enjoying this you know

01:50:41.489 --> 01:50:43.710
it's like going to a scary movie on a saturday

01:50:43.710 --> 01:50:46.069
afternoon when you were 12 years old i agree

01:50:46.069 --> 01:50:48.810
that kind of fun yes because that's alice used

01:50:48.810 --> 01:50:50.869
to have fun doing that all the time that's kind

01:50:50.869 --> 01:50:53.109
of how we wanted the stage show to be i agree

01:50:53.109 --> 01:50:55.850
like a saturday matinee matinee double feature

01:50:55.850 --> 01:50:58.729
of monster movies my only problem with him was

01:50:58.729 --> 01:51:00.909
this and this is why i lost a lot of interest

01:51:00.909 --> 01:51:03.949
in him i still love him but he really needed

01:51:03.949 --> 01:51:07.130
to change his stage show up considerably, but

01:51:07.130 --> 01:51:09.970
he never did. And I think it was working, so

01:51:09.970 --> 01:51:13.470
he was like, we're just going to leave it. Realistically,

01:51:13.630 --> 01:51:16.090
it's kind of the same thing that he started doing

01:51:16.090 --> 01:51:20.729
back in 1966, 65 with his original band when

01:51:20.729 --> 01:51:22.989
they were fresh out of high school. They had

01:51:22.989 --> 01:51:26.329
spiders and spider webs and all sorts of creepy

01:51:26.329 --> 01:51:29.210
stuff, and he's just refined it since then, but

01:51:29.210 --> 01:51:31.470
it has never been anything different from that.

01:51:31.550 --> 01:51:36.409
It has always been about the only big... Departures

01:51:36.409 --> 01:51:38.710
from that was like the Welcome to My Nightmare

01:51:38.710 --> 01:51:40.850
tour, where it was set up to be like a nightmare.

01:51:41.149 --> 01:51:44.010
Yeah, yeah. And then the... Goes to Hell, didn't

01:51:44.010 --> 01:51:47.289
he do? He didn't tour Goes to Hell. He was too

01:51:47.289 --> 01:51:51.909
ill. The next album, Lace and Whiskey, he toured,

01:51:51.909 --> 01:51:54.909
but he was playing the character of a 40s private

01:51:54.909 --> 01:51:57.930
detective, which nobody was interested in. Okay,

01:51:58.029 --> 01:52:03.220
yeah. Oh, well. All right, after Alice does his

01:52:03.220 --> 01:52:06.260
final bow, will he still create music? I think

01:52:06.260 --> 01:52:08.420
so. I think so, too. Yeah, I think he still wants

01:52:08.420 --> 01:52:13.439
to get together with Neil, Dennis, and Big Mike

01:52:13.439 --> 01:52:15.699
from his original band and put out stuff. I also

01:52:15.699 --> 01:52:18.020
think he might do like Ozzy and did collaborations

01:52:18.020 --> 01:52:20.020
with people he always wanted to work with, but

01:52:20.020 --> 01:52:22.260
he never had the opportunity. That's true. He

01:52:22.260 --> 01:52:25.079
almost never appears on someone else's material.

01:52:25.220 --> 01:52:29.060
Other people appear on his. Yes. And I think

01:52:29.060 --> 01:52:31.439
that's the way Ozzy was until, you know, his

01:52:31.439 --> 01:52:35.380
last album, Patient Number Nine. Yeah, Patient

01:52:35.380 --> 01:52:39.680
Number Nine. Yeah, yeah, yep. So I would say

01:52:39.680 --> 01:52:43.039
that probably it would be something similar to

01:52:43.039 --> 01:52:44.939
where, like, yeah, all right, yeah, let me go

01:52:44.939 --> 01:52:48.819
ahead and just, you know, work with people that

01:52:48.819 --> 01:52:52.859
I've always wanted to and don't care if it sells

01:52:52.859 --> 01:52:55.140
or not, just fulfilling stuff towards the end

01:52:55.140 --> 01:52:57.949
of your career. Coincidentally, there's an Alice

01:52:57.949 --> 01:53:01.369
Cooper song called Public Animal No. 9, which

01:53:01.369 --> 01:53:04.710
was a play on Public Enemy No. 1. Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:53:04.789 --> 01:53:06.909
I remember that one. And the song was about being

01:53:06.909 --> 01:53:09.189
the worst kid in high school. Yeah, and that

01:53:09.189 --> 01:53:12.229
was during his less... That was on the School's

01:53:12.229 --> 01:53:13.989
Out album, actually. Oh, was it on the School's

01:53:13.989 --> 01:53:18.250
Out? Wow. Okay. It's been a while. He rarely

01:53:18.250 --> 01:53:21.949
played it live. Yeah. There's a lot of songs

01:53:21.949 --> 01:53:24.470
that I've never heard him play live. Oh, there's

01:53:24.470 --> 01:53:28.050
so many of them that he doesn't. But he's kind

01:53:28.050 --> 01:53:30.069
of like Ozzy did. There's the ones that worked,

01:53:30.069 --> 01:53:33.109
and they stuck with him. At the end of the show,

01:53:33.229 --> 01:53:35.949
I was the one guy, and probably you too, was

01:53:35.949 --> 01:53:38.489
going, I want to hear Paranoid Iron Man. I want

01:53:38.489 --> 01:53:42.550
to hear something different. But everybody going

01:53:42.550 --> 01:53:44.350
there wanted to hear Paranoid Iron Man. Yeah,

01:53:44.350 --> 01:53:46.670
I don't care if I ever hear Alice Play Schools

01:53:46.670 --> 01:53:48.829
out again. No, me neither. Because he does it

01:53:48.829 --> 01:53:51.399
in every concert. and then he started adding

01:53:51.399 --> 01:53:54.500
it as a bonus track, a live version of it, on

01:53:54.500 --> 01:53:57.520
a lot of albums. He'll put out an album, and

01:53:57.520 --> 01:53:59.460
then he'll add like six or seven live tracks,

01:53:59.739 --> 01:54:02.539
and it's like the same one, School's Out, No

01:54:02.539 --> 01:54:05.340
More Mr. Nice Guy, Feed My Frankenstein, over

01:54:05.340 --> 01:54:09.460
and over and over. So whoever's in charge of

01:54:09.460 --> 01:54:12.000
that, they're starting to just recycle. There's

01:54:12.000 --> 01:54:14.140
really not much new coming out. Tank's empty.

01:54:14.279 --> 01:54:17.300
It's done. And the pictures I've seen of Alice

01:54:17.300 --> 01:54:20.279
Cooper recently, he's growing a mustache. Yeah,

01:54:20.279 --> 01:54:22.020
you told me that. Which he does every once in

01:54:22.020 --> 01:54:24.960
a while during his career. He's grown a mustache,

01:54:25.039 --> 01:54:27.260
and that's usually when the big transition is

01:54:27.260 --> 01:54:30.779
coming up. Because when he was dumping his old

01:54:30.779 --> 01:54:33.039
band and getting ready to go solo, he grew a

01:54:33.039 --> 01:54:37.760
mustache. So there's a method to it. Yeah. Okay.

01:54:38.739 --> 01:54:41.380
Because he can't wear a mustache on stage. It

01:54:41.380 --> 01:54:44.300
ruins his makeup. No, he could not. So when he

01:54:44.300 --> 01:54:46.380
grows a mustache, he's not planning on performing.

01:54:47.119 --> 01:54:49.279
King Diamond did it, and it really made him look

01:54:49.279 --> 01:54:54.420
stupid. All right, is all the creativity in music

01:54:54.420 --> 01:54:59.640
diamond? Yeah. Yeah. All kinds of reasons. I

01:54:59.640 --> 01:55:02.439
think there is still some creativity out there,

01:55:02.479 --> 01:55:05.659
but we're not hearing it because whoever's producing

01:55:05.659 --> 01:55:09.859
music is playing it safe. Well, this worked yesterday.

01:55:10.000 --> 01:55:13.260
We're not taking any chances. It's just whatever

01:55:13.260 --> 01:55:16.140
the formula says, that's what we'll do. Yeah,

01:55:16.140 --> 01:55:20.199
I agree. It was fun when music was designed for

01:55:20.199 --> 01:55:23.000
people who listened and paid attention and thought

01:55:23.000 --> 01:55:26.119
about the music. Now music, for the most part,

01:55:26.220 --> 01:55:28.260
is something that happens in the background while

01:55:28.260 --> 01:55:31.140
you're doing something else. Yeah. Which is sad.

01:55:31.359 --> 01:55:36.779
Yeah, it is. All right. If, yes, all creative

01:55:36.779 --> 01:55:41.699
music is dead, which we both agree, is it because

01:55:41.699 --> 01:55:48.399
of record companies? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's very

01:55:48.399 --> 01:55:54.060
much something that needs to make money or else.

01:55:54.539 --> 01:55:57.000
So nobody wants to take a chance. No one wants

01:55:57.000 --> 01:55:59.659
to go out on a limb. Back in the 60s, it was,

01:55:59.680 --> 01:56:02.479
hey, we're not sure what's going to work. They

01:56:02.479 --> 01:56:05.460
didn't have algorithms and AI back then to figure

01:56:05.460 --> 01:56:07.840
stuff out for them. All the experimentation was

01:56:07.840 --> 01:56:10.840
so cool. They came up with all different types

01:56:10.840 --> 01:56:12.680
of sound and music, whether they meant to or

01:56:12.680 --> 01:56:15.220
not. Plus, recording technology was evolving.

01:56:15.850 --> 01:56:17.829
And they were taking advantage of new techniques,

01:56:18.090 --> 01:56:20.729
new abilities. Oh my God, that's a loud bird.

01:56:21.489 --> 01:56:27.550
New distortions. Yeah, very much so. All right,

01:56:27.609 --> 01:56:31.109
next one. Les Paul or Stratocaster? I'm definitely

01:56:31.109 --> 01:56:33.989
a Les Paul guy. Me too. I have a Stratocaster,

01:56:34.069 --> 01:56:36.909
but it's just not comfortable to play. It just

01:56:36.909 --> 01:56:40.270
really isn't. A Stratocaster is too forward,

01:56:40.350 --> 01:56:46.680
just sound. Yeah. It's great for something like,

01:56:46.699 --> 01:56:48.739
you know, Richie Blackmore did really well with

01:56:48.739 --> 01:56:51.619
it. Stevie Ray. Stevie Ray did really good. Yeah.

01:56:51.699 --> 01:56:56.739
But that soulful, deep sound comes from a Les

01:56:56.739 --> 01:57:01.000
Paul. Yeah, yeah. Now I've got a different guitar

01:57:01.000 --> 01:57:05.960
that has the Strat scale length, but it's more

01:57:05.960 --> 01:57:09.220
of a super Strat style. So it has otter pickups,

01:57:09.220 --> 01:57:11.659
it's two humbuckers, it's got a more radical

01:57:11.659 --> 01:57:14.539
design. It's a shredder's kind of guitar. I can

01:57:14.539 --> 01:57:16.420
play that fine, so it's not the scale length

01:57:16.420 --> 01:57:19.380
that bothers me, it's the Fender neck. The neck,

01:57:19.539 --> 01:57:23.500
yeah. And then also my picking hand, I'm constantly

01:57:23.500 --> 01:57:26.340
hitting the volume knob and turning myself down.

01:57:26.460 --> 01:57:30.039
It's a piss -poor design. Yeah, well, if you

01:57:30.039 --> 01:57:32.520
grew up playing SGs and Les Pauls, it's really

01:57:32.520 --> 01:57:35.300
tough. But if I'd grown up playing a Les Paul,

01:57:35.539 --> 01:57:37.699
I mean a Strat, then I probably would have gotten

01:57:37.699 --> 01:57:40.680
used to it. But the place where my right hand

01:57:40.680 --> 01:57:45.329
falls... to play an SG or a Les Paul, works out

01:57:45.329 --> 01:57:47.270
great. But when I pick up a Strad, it's just

01:57:47.270 --> 01:57:49.250
in the wrong place. I was going to ask this anyhow,

01:57:49.390 --> 01:57:51.529
even though I don't have it on here, but an SG

01:57:51.529 --> 01:57:53.449
or a Les Paul? Because I kind of figured you'd

01:57:53.449 --> 01:57:57.609
go Les Paul like me. I'm going to say an SG.

01:57:58.489 --> 01:58:02.210
I've been playing Les Pauls more recently, but

01:58:02.210 --> 01:58:05.310
I love the SG. The SG has just got that sound.

01:58:05.390 --> 01:58:08.869
I love it. It's just a little thin slab of mahogany.

01:58:09.520 --> 01:58:11.920
And it's real bright and spanky, whereas a Les

01:58:11.920 --> 01:58:13.960
Paul is a big, thick chunk of mahogany with a

01:58:13.960 --> 01:58:18.020
maple cap. Yeah. And, yeah, I mean, the way the

01:58:18.020 --> 01:58:19.899
SG feels in my hands is just so much better.

01:58:20.039 --> 01:58:24.199
I just love it. I would agree. Yeah, I've got

01:58:24.199 --> 01:58:29.939
two Gibson SGs and two Epiphone SGs. I think

01:58:29.939 --> 01:58:34.359
you like the Gibson or the Epiphone. My two Gibsons

01:58:34.359 --> 01:58:36.659
are pretty awesome. I've got one that's a 61

01:58:36.659 --> 01:58:40.319
reissue. with the twin humbuckers, the 60s classic.

01:58:40.380 --> 01:58:44.859
It's one of the models that Angus Young uses.

01:58:45.260 --> 01:58:47.699
Okay. And I've got... Look at that sound. Yeah.

01:58:48.039 --> 01:58:52.380
And I've got an SG Special, which is the two

01:58:52.380 --> 01:58:55.800
P90 pickups and the wrap -around bridge. And

01:58:55.800 --> 01:58:59.159
then my Epiphones, one is a G400 with a glued

01:58:59.159 --> 01:59:03.380
-on neck. And it's a Silverburst, so it kind

01:59:03.380 --> 01:59:06.670
of looks like I'm playing in Tool. Cool. I put

01:59:06.670 --> 01:59:09.609
hot pickups in that. And then the last one is

01:59:09.609 --> 01:59:13.050
the G310. So it has a bolt -on neck, which kind

01:59:13.050 --> 01:59:16.590
of puts the neck in a different position. And

01:59:16.590 --> 01:59:19.670
the guitar is heavily beat up. It's got a whole

01:59:19.670 --> 01:59:23.350
bunch of extra holes drilled in it. And it kind

01:59:23.350 --> 01:59:25.949
of looks like a street punk's guitar. And it's

01:59:25.949 --> 01:59:31.699
got really, really hot pickups in it. DiMarzio

01:59:31.699 --> 01:59:35.079
set when John Petrucci was endorsing DiMarzio.

01:59:35.079 --> 01:59:38.439
The Crunch Lab and Liquifier. That's the pickups

01:59:38.439 --> 01:59:41.539
that are in it. So it is a metal machine and

01:59:41.539 --> 01:59:45.420
it looks pretty punk and I call it the guitar

01:59:45.420 --> 01:59:49.039
that survived Y2K because it was made in 1999.

01:59:50.720 --> 01:59:53.520
And I don't play that one very often but holy

01:59:53.520 --> 01:59:55.840
cow you can get some monster high gain tones

01:59:55.840 --> 01:59:59.260
out of that one. All right, who would be the

01:59:59.260 --> 02:00:03.539
best keyboardist ever? Gosh, Ray Manzarek's got

02:00:03.539 --> 02:00:06.680
to be up there from the doors. I'm a big Don

02:00:06.680 --> 02:00:14.060
Airy fan. Yeah. John Lord. John Lord. Elton John,

02:00:14.119 --> 02:00:17.380
actually. Yeah, Elton John. Let's see, the keyboard

02:00:17.380 --> 02:00:21.239
player for ELO was a guy named Tandy. I liked

02:00:21.239 --> 02:00:27.800
him a lot. Yeah. Oh, there's so many that I'm

02:00:27.800 --> 02:00:31.119
just not thinking of right now. Yeah. Chester

02:00:31.119 --> 02:00:36.720
Thompson. Yeah. Greg Raleigh. He played with

02:00:36.720 --> 02:00:39.359
Journey and Santana. Oh, yeah. That's a great

02:00:39.359 --> 02:00:44.840
example right there. One that most people haven't

02:00:44.840 --> 02:00:47.399
heard of, I forget his name, but he was the keyboard

02:00:47.399 --> 02:00:50.920
player for a Texas blues rock band called Blood

02:00:50.920 --> 02:00:54.340
Rock, and his nickname was the Texas Tornado.

02:00:55.239 --> 02:00:58.000
and he played a Hammond B -3, and he was probably

02:00:58.000 --> 02:01:03.640
the best musician in that group. So old recordings

02:01:03.640 --> 02:01:08.119
of Blood Rock from 68, 69, 70. Their one big

02:01:08.119 --> 02:01:10.600
hit was a song called D .O .A. about a plane

02:01:10.600 --> 02:01:14.119
crash. And then they had some others like Jessica

02:01:14.119 --> 02:01:18.180
and Cheater that got some radio play, and I've

02:01:18.180 --> 02:01:21.899
heard some bands do cover bands, but the only

02:01:21.899 --> 02:01:23.640
one I remember hearing on the radio was D .O

02:01:23.640 --> 02:01:26.760
.A. Okay. And it's sung from the point of view

02:01:26.760 --> 02:01:28.960
of somebody who's waking up after the plane has

02:01:28.960 --> 02:01:30.479
already crashed and trying to figure out what's

02:01:30.479 --> 02:01:34.100
going on. Oh, wow. Yeah, and he dies before the

02:01:34.100 --> 02:01:37.600
song ends. Oh, wow. And it was written about,

02:01:37.680 --> 02:01:39.439
the singer actually wrote it about a friend of

02:01:39.439 --> 02:01:41.960
his. When they were teenagers, they were taking

02:01:41.960 --> 02:01:44.579
flying lessons, and the singer guy had finished

02:01:44.579 --> 02:01:46.500
his, and he got on the plane, and his buddy got

02:01:46.500 --> 02:01:48.779
in and took off and crashed almost immediately

02:01:48.779 --> 02:01:52.109
and died. Oh, wow. So he kind of held on to that

02:01:52.109 --> 02:01:54.890
and then eventually wrote the song DOA about

02:01:54.890 --> 02:01:57.069
that. And people were like, oh, it's about a

02:01:57.069 --> 02:01:59.229
drug overdose. Oh, it's sick. He's like, no,

02:01:59.289 --> 02:02:01.069
it's not. Everyone always adds their own stuff,

02:02:01.109 --> 02:02:06.210
I know. Next one. I love this question because,

02:02:06.210 --> 02:02:08.409
gosh, there's so many, it's really going to be

02:02:08.409 --> 02:02:11.069
hard to figure out. But just whatever comes to

02:02:11.069 --> 02:02:13.890
mind, what band could have used keyboards that

02:02:13.890 --> 02:02:20.680
didn't have them? Oh, good one. I always thought

02:02:20.680 --> 02:02:22.439
Motley Crue could have used keyboards. Yeah,

02:02:22.439 --> 02:02:27.100
definitely Motley Crue. I was tempted to say

02:02:27.100 --> 02:02:30.439
Bad Company, but they did use piano a lot. Yeah,

02:02:30.500 --> 02:02:35.920
I guess piano would qualify. Van Halen, but they

02:02:35.920 --> 02:02:42.760
did. Rush, but they did. Gosh. Super Tramp. They

02:02:42.760 --> 02:02:44.279
did. They had a keyboard player. No, they did

02:02:44.279 --> 02:02:47.399
have one, didn't they? Yeah, Roger Hodgson. Or

02:02:47.399 --> 02:02:49.930
no, Rick Davies, and he died recently. Yeah,

02:02:50.010 --> 02:02:56.069
but, okay. Played the Wurlitzer. Gosh, other

02:02:56.069 --> 02:03:02.590
than Motley Crue, who am I thinking? That's actually

02:03:02.590 --> 02:03:05.670
a really tough one. It is. Maybe we could do

02:03:05.670 --> 02:03:08.229
a list of each one on the next one. Yeah, I'm

02:03:08.229 --> 02:03:10.789
going to write that down. Bands that need a keyboard.

02:03:11.350 --> 02:03:19.819
Okay. That's going to take some research. Yeah.

02:03:19.819 --> 02:03:24.460
All right. All right, next one. Will Motley Crue's

02:03:24.460 --> 02:03:27.840
summer tour be a success? No. No, I think it's

02:03:27.840 --> 02:03:30.239
going to flop. I don't see much success for Motley

02:03:30.239 --> 02:03:35.180
Crue. I keep seeing things that indicate that

02:03:35.180 --> 02:03:38.060
John 5 is trying to separate himself and get

02:03:38.060 --> 02:03:40.699
away and restart something else. Well, he's doing

02:03:40.699 --> 02:03:45.239
a solo tour, wasn't he? Yeah, pretty much. Rob

02:03:45.239 --> 02:03:47.659
Zombie doesn't want him back. No. But not because

02:03:47.659 --> 02:03:49.680
he's mad at him. He's just like, we've moved

02:03:49.680 --> 02:03:52.800
on. We're happy with what we got. You wouldn't

02:03:52.800 --> 02:03:56.619
fit anymore, so let's not do it. Yeah. Yeah,

02:03:56.619 --> 02:03:58.380
and like he said, he's not mad at him or nothing.

02:03:58.439 --> 02:04:01.260
He just moved on, and he likes the way he's going,

02:04:01.359 --> 02:04:03.479
so he's not gruffling any feathers. He's like,

02:04:03.500 --> 02:04:05.779
this works. It's like you're married to Val.

02:04:05.920 --> 02:04:07.819
If one of your old girlfriends came by and said,

02:04:07.859 --> 02:04:09.979
hey, you want to try again? You'd be like, no,

02:04:10.380 --> 02:04:14.020
because it's way too late for that. Yeah, I'm

02:04:14.020 --> 02:04:15.579
pretty good where I'm at. Go ahead and leave.

02:04:15.939 --> 02:04:19.100
But that's what he is right there, the ex. Yeah,

02:04:19.239 --> 02:04:22.500
and that really is a good analogy for bandmates.

02:04:22.659 --> 02:04:24.260
It's kind of like a marriage of convenience.

02:04:26.649 --> 02:04:29.069
You don't love each other, but you can make money

02:04:29.069 --> 02:04:29.810
together. And then when it's done, they're like,

02:04:29.949 --> 02:04:31.829
you know what, it wasn't that bad without him,

02:04:31.850 --> 02:04:33.590
so we're going to go ahead and keep it. Yep.

02:04:34.890 --> 02:04:37.399
Have Motley overstayed their welcome. Yeah, I'd

02:04:37.399 --> 02:04:40.279
say so. Absolutely, 100%. And then some. Yeah,

02:04:40.359 --> 02:04:42.960
I mean, in a way, I kind of put them in the same

02:04:42.960 --> 02:04:45.560
category of bands that just really aren't putting

02:04:45.560 --> 02:04:47.600
out anything new. They're just coasting on the

02:04:47.600 --> 02:04:50.840
old stuff. Yeah, yeah. Like Coroner, REO, Rolling

02:04:50.840 --> 02:04:53.520
Stones. There's no new music. And they could.

02:04:53.640 --> 02:04:55.539
They could write music. They could come out with

02:04:55.539 --> 02:04:58.119
new stuff. Other bands are doing it. They don't

02:04:58.119 --> 02:04:59.960
want to. But they're just, eh, let's just coast

02:04:59.960 --> 02:05:01.880
on all the old stuff. Yeah, they don't want to

02:05:01.880 --> 02:05:03.819
put out the effort for the amount of money they'll

02:05:03.819 --> 02:05:07.960
make on it, which is nothing. Yeah. Okay, and

02:05:07.960 --> 02:05:11.079
finally, would a lineup of grunge bands with

02:05:11.079 --> 02:05:13.180
replacement singers, since most of them are dead,

02:05:13.359 --> 02:05:17.279
be a hit if they toured? Probably so. I think

02:05:17.279 --> 02:05:20.239
so too. I think the nostalgia circuit is definitely

02:05:20.239 --> 02:05:23.180
still pretty vital, pretty vibrant. I think they

02:05:23.180 --> 02:05:26.539
could find one singer to do all of it if they

02:05:26.539 --> 02:05:29.439
wanted to. But it probably wouldn't go very well

02:05:29.439 --> 02:05:31.479
if the concert lasted four hours or something.

02:05:31.619 --> 02:05:35.279
Yeah, that's true. I think that, like, replacing

02:05:35.279 --> 02:05:38.140
the lead singers at this point in time, not back

02:05:38.140 --> 02:05:41.119
then, but this point in time would be fine. Yeah.

02:05:41.279 --> 02:05:43.300
Because people don't really remember them that

02:05:43.300 --> 02:05:45.060
well now, anyhow. I mean, they might remember

02:05:45.060 --> 02:05:48.739
Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley, but the difference

02:05:48.739 --> 02:05:50.859
isn't there like it used to be. Yeah. When it

02:05:50.859 --> 02:05:52.460
was fresh on your mind. Now people would be like,

02:05:52.560 --> 02:05:54.579
oh, this guy sounds good. And there are a lot

02:05:54.579 --> 02:05:56.600
of bands that have done just fine with replacement

02:05:56.600 --> 02:06:00.199
singers. Yeah. Linkin Park, I noticed, is putting

02:06:00.199 --> 02:06:03.819
out a bunch of new music that people love. So

02:06:03.819 --> 02:06:06.760
it didn't matter that Chester Bennington killed

02:06:06.760 --> 02:06:11.520
himself. At first it did, but then after people

02:06:11.520 --> 02:06:13.699
got over it, like right now, I think that the

02:06:13.699 --> 02:06:15.880
replacement singers in the grunge bands would

02:06:15.880 --> 02:06:20.100
be fine. I've been hearing some more about the

02:06:20.100 --> 02:06:25.479
Rush tour. They've got a new drummer, Anika Niles.

02:06:25.699 --> 02:06:30.399
Yeah, she's really good. But what's disturbing

02:06:30.399 --> 02:06:33.039
is they've announced they're adding a keyboardist

02:06:33.039 --> 02:06:35.479
for the tour. That's right. I saw that. Yeah.

02:06:36.180 --> 02:06:41.100
Is that to hide their age? Yes. Because Geddy

02:06:41.100 --> 02:06:43.979
Lee is, and he can still play, but he's not playing

02:06:43.979 --> 02:06:47.300
the way he used to. No. And his voice is really,

02:06:47.479 --> 02:06:50.560
really fading. I mean, you remember the strong,

02:06:50.560 --> 02:06:54.739
powerful vocals from... Yeah. I mean, 2112, of

02:06:54.739 --> 02:06:57.079
course, the shrieking and stuff, but later albums.

02:06:57.079 --> 02:06:58.600
He had to get away from that back then because

02:06:58.600 --> 02:07:01.859
he was destroying his voice. But even the strong

02:07:01.859 --> 02:07:07.159
vocals on Subdivision's album or... Which is

02:07:07.159 --> 02:07:11.439
very underrated. Presto or Permanent Waves. He

02:07:11.439 --> 02:07:14.439
can't even do that anymore. He's got a very weak,

02:07:14.439 --> 02:07:17.239
breathy, kind of quavery voice. It's just nothing,

02:07:17.260 --> 02:07:18.479
nothing at all like it used to be. No, nothing

02:07:18.479 --> 02:07:21.840
like it used to be. So when you go to that...

02:07:22.740 --> 02:07:26.800
Kiss tour, I mean Kiss, that Rush tour, for those

02:07:26.800 --> 02:07:29.319
of you who are going, you're going to be probably

02:07:29.319 --> 02:07:31.739
pretty disappointed at the quality of the vocals.

02:07:32.020 --> 02:07:34.039
Rush toured with Kiss actually a long time ago.

02:07:34.039 --> 02:07:41.060
Yeah, yeah. Okay, number one, he couldn't do

02:07:41.060 --> 02:07:43.439
it back then because he had to move on from it,

02:07:43.460 --> 02:07:45.819
so now he can't even do the stuff that he had

02:07:45.819 --> 02:07:49.260
to do safe because he's 70 -something. But, you

02:07:49.260 --> 02:07:51.689
know what, I mean... If they came by Kansas City,

02:07:51.789 --> 02:07:55.090
I think I would go see them. Yeah. Yeah, there's

02:07:55.090 --> 02:07:58.890
a tipping point between... I wouldn't buy the

02:07:58.890 --> 02:08:01.369
tickets until the day of. Yeah. It's like, I

02:08:01.369 --> 02:08:03.729
really like this band. I like their body of work.

02:08:04.810 --> 02:08:07.770
Especially if you never got to see them before.

02:08:08.510 --> 02:08:10.689
But you've got to balance that against they're

02:08:10.689 --> 02:08:12.890
really not what they used to be. They're almost

02:08:12.890 --> 02:08:16.409
like their own tribute band. They have to get

02:08:16.409 --> 02:08:18.810
all these auxiliary musicians to help them out

02:08:18.810 --> 02:08:21.689
because they can't do it anymore. It just starts

02:08:21.689 --> 02:08:27.949
sounding really sad. Yeah, I agree. I'm not going

02:08:27.949 --> 02:08:30.189
to criticize anybody who wants to go, but at

02:08:30.189 --> 02:08:32.029
this point I really kind of don't feel like I

02:08:32.029 --> 02:08:34.649
want to go. I mean, I've never seen Rush. It

02:08:34.649 --> 02:08:36.989
would be awesome to see Rush, but without Neil

02:08:36.989 --> 02:08:40.010
Peart and with extra people on the stage, it's

02:08:40.010 --> 02:08:42.090
like I'm not seeing Rush. I'm seeing a tribute

02:08:42.090 --> 02:08:44.960
band with a couple of original members. I guess

02:08:44.960 --> 02:08:47.159
so. I don't know. I think mine's just nostalgia.

02:08:47.500 --> 02:08:50.500
Just to say, yeah, I did go as Watered Down version,

02:08:50.760 --> 02:08:53.960
but I still got to see two of them. And that's

02:08:53.960 --> 02:08:56.720
just me. I mean, I like the original the way

02:08:56.720 --> 02:08:59.539
it was supposed to be, and I really kind of don't

02:08:59.539 --> 02:09:03.020
like remakes or revamped versions. And Neil Peart

02:09:03.020 --> 02:09:06.060
was such a huge part of that band that it's really

02:09:06.060 --> 02:09:09.600
hard to get around. But I do love their new genre.

02:09:10.119 --> 02:09:12.689
Yeah. Yeah, I think they made a good choice with

02:09:12.689 --> 02:09:14.909
her. They really did. She can do all the things

02:09:14.909 --> 02:09:17.529
that she needs to do to sound good. I'm really

02:09:17.529 --> 02:09:20.550
curious to see where her career goes after Rush.

02:09:20.949 --> 02:09:22.989
Because Rush is going to quit and hang it up.

02:09:23.510 --> 02:09:26.949
Rush is going to go from here. I don't know.

02:09:27.109 --> 02:09:29.470
I mean, it's not like rock music is big. Yeah.

02:09:29.949 --> 02:09:33.149
I don't know. I think Matt Cameron just... just

02:09:33.149 --> 02:09:35.449
quit Pearl Jam. I think he's kind of over and

02:09:35.449 --> 02:09:37.409
done. He's kind of worn out. Well, he already

02:09:37.409 --> 02:09:39.810
said that. He said, like, we're not really doing

02:09:39.810 --> 02:09:42.609
anything. He goes, we do some shows and stuff.

02:09:42.689 --> 02:09:45.529
But he said, my creativity is just non -existent,

02:09:45.529 --> 02:09:48.250
so I'll move on. What point is there in being

02:09:48.250 --> 02:09:49.949
in the band if you really aren't getting anything

02:09:49.949 --> 02:09:52.229
out of it? It's more like a scheduling conflict

02:09:52.229 --> 02:09:54.670
that you're really not getting any enjoyment

02:09:54.670 --> 02:09:57.510
from. Yeah, so he just, I agree with him, man.

02:09:57.550 --> 02:09:59.210
He moved on. He's like, you know, it's just,

02:09:59.250 --> 02:10:02.539
yeah, it's time to just go. He's an amazing drummer.

02:10:02.859 --> 02:10:08.659
Just crazy. Yeah, and also he was very good in

02:10:08.659 --> 02:10:10.619
the bands that he was in, too. I mean, you know,

02:10:10.619 --> 02:10:13.979
he went to... Temple of the Dog and Soundgarden

02:10:13.979 --> 02:10:18.079
and Pearl Jam. He's done some other stuff, too.

02:10:18.159 --> 02:10:21.300
Yeah, and then he did some, not solo, but other

02:10:21.300 --> 02:10:24.159
band fillings, too. But anyhow, yeah, Matt Cameron,

02:10:24.260 --> 02:10:28.539
excellent drummer. All right, that's all I got.

02:10:28.840 --> 02:10:32.720
Yeah. Yep, and I'm going to save the rest of

02:10:32.720 --> 02:10:34.920
our band names for the next time. Okay, all right.

02:10:34.960 --> 02:10:36.359
Well, I guess we're going to go ahead and shut

02:10:36.359 --> 02:10:38.479
this shit show down. How long we got? Two hours

02:10:38.479 --> 02:10:41.119
and six minutes. Oh, we got plenty. Yeah. All

02:10:41.119 --> 02:10:42.680
right. Hey, everybody, thanks for hanging with

02:10:42.680 --> 02:10:44.500

really appreciate it. And you guys telling everybody

02:10:47.279 --> 02:10:49.800
