Hi everybody, Dennis Black here for Black and White Records. Welcome to the Black and

2
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:12,560
White Records podcast. Today, Memphis artist and filmmaker Mike McCarthy

3
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:18,000
interviews black and white artists Seth Moody and Graham Winchester of the

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,120
Turnstiles. Now here's Mike McCarthy.

5
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:33,920
Graham Winchester. It's the alt band, a title of Moody Winchester that I always

6
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,640
thought you guys should have went with because it sounds menacing. As long as Moody's first.

7
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:43,360
Moody Winchester. Yeah. Can't have the drummer last name first. I imagine like a salty guy

8
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:50,080
from the 1800s. It's Moody Winchester. Who founds Memphis in 1820. That's right. Yep.

9
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:57,280
With a general and a president. Are you related to James Winchester? I am. I am. Seriously. Yes.

10
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:03,960
Okay, tell me. He's a great great great great great granddad or something. So

11
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,520
you're a great great great great grandfather co-founded Memphis with John

12
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:14,920
Overton and Andrew Jackson. Yeah. Wow. His son Marcus was the first mayor. Marcus

13
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,920
Winchester. So how come I didn't hear about you until like maybe 13 years ago?

14
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:25,640
Because I'm not in the politics. Not yet. Not yet. That's right. I've been I've been encouraged

15
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:33,080
to run for like stuff but I've. By who? Declined. A lot of mid-towners. I don't want to name any names.

16
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:38,320
Just wait till you're 40. Just influential midtown people with money have approached me

17
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:44,440
about doing politics. Music is political enough for me. I'm good. Political drummer. Political

18
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:49,440
drama. To a different to a different drummer. I don't just keep sacrificing goats to the

19
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:56,000
devil in that yard. I'm just about to run out of goats. That's the real that's the footage

20
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:02,800
that I cut out of the dock. Oh yeah. Okay. So I was because then it doesn't work. Lucifer

21
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:10,040
does not reward those that flaunt his glory. And now we're now we're losing listeners. So

22
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:15,440
those three people are gone. Gaining them. All the goat sacrifice people are going to

23
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:20,480
love us. So you guys didn't need tequila before their podcast tonight. No. I didn't know we

24
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,720
had any. Just a bunch of pizza. I've got a lot of tequila now though because my birthday

25
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:30,200
was last week and the number one gift people brought were bottles of tequila. Because they'd

26
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:36,320
seen the dock. Yeah. Because they're mad and he's so young. Age. People. Yeah. You were

27
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:43,480
trying to kill it. You were 30. You're freshly 36. Looking rough. Graham to kill him because

28
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:48,560
he had 42 bottles of tequila. I'm wearing the Ninja Turtle shirt to combat my new aging

29
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:58,280
process and it's teal. It's teal. Tequila teal. Tequila teal. So I made a little documentary.

30
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:03,640
We'll just get that out of the way. Two weeks ago. Whatever you guys like it. I love it.

31
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:09,120
So it's fun. People think you're heavy drinkers now. I was a little worried about that. But

32
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,920
then I thought well what am I worried about. I thought the same and then I was like well

33
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:19,400
we're doing. We're filming a. Recording and playing and rocking together so why not have

34
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:24,880
to keep you. Only see us. You only see us taking two shots. It takes 24 to get me rolling.

35
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,560
Yeah. I mean I thought there was more than two. The same effect if we were doing everything

36
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:34,520
we did in the dog and the eating like crackers and drinking water. No. I mean we're not just

37
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:41,760
up ending the bottle and rolling around on the floor. Sacrificing goats. Oh. Graham

38
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:46,760
crap his pants. I guess we're not recording a song tonight. Well give me that tequila before

39
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,840
he gets crap on it. That's the new song Graham crap his pants. I think so. I guess so. Let's

40
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:56,800
make that. I mean it's just a couple little nips. You know it's more the going to get

41
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:02,640
it in. Yeah. Let's get our heads in the right place. Hey at least we got the driving done

42
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,040
before the drinking. You know we're going to be authentic Memphis. I've actually drawn

43
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:13,320
you filmed you played on stage with you are I saying on stage with you. There's a couple

44
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:19,760
more things you could do to make us really tight. I think we take a break. No I just

45
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,560
wonder what I'm getting invited over for dinner. Oh yeah. Right at this point or maybe a free

46
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,920
haircut. I know you don't really haircut. Do you like goat. I can give out free hair.

47
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:35,480
We'll have a goat roast. Yeah. If we were going to play a turn style song or maybe we

48
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,440
should play somebody else's songs. I don't know. But you sent over a couple turn styles

49
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:45,560
songs from turn styles to which we could talk about. We had to kill him when we were recording

50
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:52,320
those songs. Yeah. It was mostly during the pandemic. We were in a pod. Right. Graham

51
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:58,560
and my wife and I were working on those songs because we had nothing else to do in the basement.

52
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,200
We hold up most nights of each week really. Yeah. Whenever I did my vocals they would

53
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:11,240
sit to the side and drink the tequila and make fun of me. There was one night I got

54
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:16,760
so upset I just ran out of the house and like walked two blocks away and sat down on the

55
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:23,200
curb for about 20 minutes. I ran out of the basement now the house. I looked at Cocoa

56
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:28,720
you know eyes wider than we were just like OK maybe we waited for about 10 minutes he

57
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:34,520
didn't come back. OK let's go find Seth but he didn't walk down the street. You guys sound

58
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:39,280
I mean the record sounds fantastic. Well it was a lot of fun. It was a lot of fun. Heard

59
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:44,040
it at the listening lab. Thank you. Thanks. And I haven't and I knew you sent those songs

60
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:48,600
over today. Let's play one on the list. Why don't we do since we start our live shows

61
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:54,240
off lately with it dead surfer. Oh yeah. That was that's kind of one of the first ones we

62
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:59,280
recorded. All right. So here are the turnstiles off turnstiles to the double album with dead

63
00:05:59,280 --> 00:06:15,320
surfer.

64
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:29,560
So

65
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:36,560
music

66
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,560
music

67
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,560
music

68
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,560
music

69
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:52,560
music

70
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:57,560
music

71
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,700
All right, that was Dead Surfer. Any stories behind that one? Is that why you're a two-piece?

72
00:08:32,700 --> 00:08:38,420
That was mainly a Seth, you wrote that. Yeah, I wrote that. Actually, it's really old. I've

73
00:08:38,420 --> 00:08:46,420
wrote it when I lived in Athens, Georgia, and lived in this crazy house called the Porn Orchard

74
00:08:46,420 --> 00:08:53,500
house because the van that I lived with was called Porn Orchard. Anyway, I did it on the four track

75
00:08:53,500 --> 00:09:02,740
and just kept it around and brought it back to try to keep up with Graham's songwriting. He

76
00:09:02,740 --> 00:09:09,640
prowess. He spits them out. Like, oh my god, he's got four new songs. I only have two. So let me go

77
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:17,780
get this old one. So I pulled it from my archives and reworked it a little bit. I don't like to think

78
00:09:17,780 --> 00:09:26,000
that I'm leaning on my younger self. But then there's Athens days, but then he's got Wilmington

79
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,420
days. He's got Texas days. Why don't we talk about those days? Seth's lived all over the country.

80
00:09:30,420 --> 00:09:38,620
Where are you from and what are you all about? I don't know what I'm about yet, but I've lived in

81
00:09:38,620 --> 00:09:47,980
Athens, Savannah, Georgia, Dallas, Texas, Kansas City. I've done about a bit of everything. I've done

82
00:09:47,980 --> 00:09:54,340
the touring thing with this ridiculous thing called Billy Goat back in the early 90s. Yeah, I know.

83
00:09:54,340 --> 00:09:59,300
Geez. It's all going full circle. I think I'm thinking. I'm gonna have to start sacrificing

84
00:09:59,300 --> 00:10:05,700
rabbits now because I've outed the goat. Sacrificing rabbits sounds like an Athens band name. It does.

85
00:10:05,700 --> 00:10:16,420
Athens was exhausting because it's so cool there. You can't like the scene if you're in Athens or

86
00:10:16,420 --> 00:10:23,420
if you're a part of the scene, you hate it. So Athens is like the southern Austin? Yeah,

87
00:10:23,420 --> 00:10:31,860
or it's got more of an eastern east coast vibe to it. It's like a southern Austin with a little

88
00:10:31,860 --> 00:10:43,140
bit of Brooklyn. Yeah, Nose Riders and the Carvers in Wilmington, amongst other bands like Hawaiian

89
00:10:43,140 --> 00:10:55,140
band and etc. Yeah, Athens, I was in a few punk bands because I was in Dallas, Texas before I

90
00:10:55,140 --> 00:11:03,020
moved to Athens and learning jazz. What years are we talking? Yeah, late 80s. So I was going

91
00:11:03,020 --> 00:11:09,500
through high school. I went through to an arts magnet school in Dallas. Yeah, learned music

92
00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:14,820
theory and all that stuff. But then all the jazz cats as they got towards their senior year,

93
00:11:14,820 --> 00:11:24,780
all their heroes were heroin users. So all of a sudden, you go to a party in high school,

94
00:11:24,780 --> 00:11:33,060
and it's not a keg of beer, it's some guys doing smack in the bathroom. I'm not into that. I mean,

95
00:11:33,060 --> 00:11:38,220
jazz is fun, but lower. John Coltrane did it though. Yeah, that's where he got inspired.

96
00:11:38,220 --> 00:11:42,620
But I'm going to try it. Well, you're just like 18 at that point. Yeah, I know, the kids. I'm like,

97
00:11:42,620 --> 00:11:52,980
what? No way. So I was into the rock and roll that I was into. I was a big fan of the B-52s,

98
00:11:52,980 --> 00:12:00,060
you know, their early stuff and stuff like that. So I figured, fuck this jazz stuff, my parents

99
00:12:00,060 --> 00:12:08,340
can get me in as a in state tuition in Athens. It has a great music scene in 1988. I saw the movie

100
00:12:08,340 --> 00:12:15,300
Athens, Georgia Inside Out, remember that? And Dex, Rom Weber, all those cats. So I went there

101
00:12:15,300 --> 00:12:23,620
and put down the upright bass and picked up an electric and prayed that the B-52s weren't

102
00:12:23,620 --> 00:12:29,700
heroin addicts. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, they were they were long since left. What were they

103
00:12:29,700 --> 00:12:39,100
into disco night? I mean, chemically. Oh, probably cocaine. You think? Really? Late 70s? Well,

104
00:12:39,100 --> 00:12:43,220
okay. And you jammed with Dex Rom Weber and recorded with him, right? Yeah. Yeah. I played

105
00:12:43,220 --> 00:12:50,660
sex with him. Fun, crazy guy. So you were in Athens when you were 1920, 21? Yep. Wow. 19,

106
00:12:50,660 --> 00:12:59,900
20, 21 is when I left and I joined the band Billy Goat, who were stationed in Lawrence at that

107
00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:08,500
point. Stationed. Yeah, they they were a touring band. They moved to a more central spot of the

108
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:13,380
U.S. to make touring easier. Did your parents realize that they had raised a musician who was

109
00:13:13,380 --> 00:13:18,980
just going to hop around the United States? Oh, they hopped around. Did they? Okay. Why? How?

110
00:13:18,980 --> 00:13:27,620
Tell me about that. Just divorces and whatnot. Not military. Just well, I just started dating

111
00:13:27,620 --> 00:13:34,900
this guy and he moved to Dallas. So we're moving to Dallas. Well, your mom and dad were musicians.

112
00:13:34,900 --> 00:13:42,940
My mother sang. My dad wanted to play the flute, but couldn't figure it out. But my grandfather was

113
00:13:42,940 --> 00:13:52,140
a jazz pianist and my grandmother was a jazz singer. Then I, well, I got married and then

114
00:13:52,140 --> 00:13:58,700
within two months of being married, I got a phone call from a guy who ended up playing with corn.

115
00:13:58,700 --> 00:14:07,460
Speaking of, he called up and said, I'm in this band. We're on Warner Brothers. Our bass player

116
00:14:07,460 --> 00:14:17,900
just quit. Can you be here by next Saturday? And I muted the phone and I said, honey. And

117
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:24,260
she's like, Oh, that sounds great. Go for it. So for the so for the next year and a half,

118
00:14:24,260 --> 00:14:30,380
I toured around and with this was who Billy goat. Oh, this was Billy. You know,

119
00:14:30,380 --> 00:14:37,300
Eddie Brackell and the new Bohemians. Yeah. The new Bohemians. When she got giant, they split off

120
00:14:37,300 --> 00:14:46,020
and then one of their split offs. There's like a spinoff band was this, but it led you to where

121
00:14:46,020 --> 00:14:51,660
you are. Some, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. And then you went where I went back to where my

122
00:14:51,660 --> 00:14:59,620
wife was in Augusta, Georgia, which was God awful. She was going to medical school there for physical

123
00:14:59,620 --> 00:15:07,620
therapy. I didn't have anything to do other than wait or not. And he wait tables. I've washed dishes

124
00:15:07,620 --> 00:15:16,180
in the restaurant and recorded stuff on a four track. I remember a New Year's Eve after I quit

125
00:15:16,180 --> 00:15:23,780
that band. Usually, you know, on a New Year's Eve in the band like that, you're playing some high

126
00:15:23,780 --> 00:15:32,380
profile gig, lots of money. Big woohoo. This New Year's Eve. I was in the kitchen eating bits of

127
00:15:32,380 --> 00:15:38,260
filet mignon that people didn't finish off their plates and and drinking their leftover champagne.

128
00:15:38,260 --> 00:15:46,420
Okay. So Augusta, then what? Then Wilmington. I went to Wilmington because they didn't have a

129
00:15:46,420 --> 00:15:54,500
recording studio that was for normal people. They had like some kind of fancy pants, one that

130
00:15:54,500 --> 00:16:02,580
recorded cover bands. So I figured, I know how to record me and a couple other musician friends

131
00:16:02,580 --> 00:16:12,940
that lived in LA and Philadelphia at the time went in on some equipment. And I set up shop with my

132
00:16:12,940 --> 00:16:22,060
wife and a commercial rental in Wilmington and did that for five years. Did you surf? Yeah, I

133
00:16:22,060 --> 00:16:30,460
surfed not very well, but I did it because it's exercise and it's fun. Yeah, one morning, I was

134
00:16:30,460 --> 00:16:37,740
out there like five o'clock in the morning, the sun wasn't even up and I was half awake. I'm

135
00:16:37,740 --> 00:16:43,580
paddling around and you know, when you surf and you have a leash that you tie onto your ankle so

136
00:16:43,580 --> 00:16:49,740
you don't, if the board goes flying, you stay, you don't lose it. So the leash was not attached to

137
00:16:49,740 --> 00:16:57,700
my ankle. It was just floating behind the board and it was far enough away. I'm paddling around

138
00:16:57,700 --> 00:17:03,900
and I saw something out of the corner of my eye and I look back, nothing. So I'm paddling around

139
00:17:03,900 --> 00:17:09,780
again. I see something out of the corner of my eye and I look real quick and I see it go down

140
00:17:09,780 --> 00:17:18,060
under the water. I thought, oh my God, but it was the leash. By God. So for like 10 minutes,

141
00:17:18,060 --> 00:17:24,380
I'm going around in circles with my heart rate going up and up like, oh my, it's following me.

142
00:17:24,380 --> 00:17:34,940
A lot of my recordings were just a terrible band. There was one band, the drummer, every

143
00:17:34,940 --> 00:17:40,700
time he went to do a fill, he'd screw it all up. What would you step in and play tracks?

144
00:17:40,700 --> 00:17:48,180
No, what I did was, let me hold onto this. Y'all come back next week and I'll play the mix. So

145
00:17:48,180 --> 00:17:57,260
on all his fuck ups or mess ups, I would put like a sound effect, like a bowling ball or lightning.

146
00:17:57,260 --> 00:18:06,500
And they were like a hard rock band. So they loved it. They were sitting on the floor with

147
00:18:06,500 --> 00:18:13,340
their 40 ounce malt lickers like, whoa, did you hear that? It was a spaceship landing when you did

148
00:18:13,340 --> 00:18:20,140
that fill. Next drum fill I messed up on the record. We're putting a UFO landing over it. Went to

149
00:18:20,140 --> 00:18:28,340
Microsoft certified systems engineer training in Raleigh. To hell with music. I cut my hair short,

150
00:18:28,340 --> 00:18:35,660
bought a ill fitting polo shirt and plaid pants. No, not plaid, khaki pants. Thanks for wearing

151
00:18:35,660 --> 00:18:40,340
that over tonight, by the way. Oh yeah, you're welcome. Right off the golf course. So I, you know,

152
00:18:40,340 --> 00:18:45,060
tried to grow up. Had you heard of all the things that had been happening in Memphis or

153
00:18:45,060 --> 00:18:49,580
Graham? I mean, you were younger, but did you know of all the stuff that was happening with the

154
00:18:49,580 --> 00:18:57,540
oblivions and I knew about Jack O Harlan, T Bobo, you knew about all that. I would see their names

155
00:18:57,540 --> 00:19:02,980
in the paper, but you were too young to get into the shows. I was playing shows more East at like

156
00:19:02,980 --> 00:19:10,260
newbies, Niels in Midtown would let us play an 8pm show. What band? Copper possum. That was

157
00:19:10,260 --> 00:19:17,020
our, that was my band from sixth grade. Walker in the copper possum was a antique mall. As you make

158
00:19:17,020 --> 00:19:21,420
your way through Mississippi down to Florida. Oh, it was an actual place. It was an actual place,

159
00:19:21,420 --> 00:19:27,580
the copper possum antique mall. Sounds like death leper copper possum. Right. Yeah. And before

160
00:19:27,580 --> 00:19:35,020
that we had named copper possum silent cow, which was a nickname for Calvin Coolidge. And there is

161
00:19:35,020 --> 00:19:40,540
actual VHS tape. It's a worst band name. Silent cow. There's a little thank you for saying that

162
00:19:40,540 --> 00:19:45,860
because there's a VHS tape of our first gig ever. We're doing like six originals break on through

163
00:19:45,860 --> 00:19:53,940
by the doors, whatever. And you can hear our like it's our first show, first show I've ever played

164
00:19:53,940 --> 00:19:59,820
in a venue is at Reed Meisters on Park, the daily planet, same building, same building. Yeah. But

165
00:19:59,820 --> 00:20:05,100
it became Reed Meisters and whoa, the daily planet on Park Park and Highland basically, right, right.

166
00:20:05,100 --> 00:20:10,380
It became Reed Meisters for like two couple years. Did not know that we played there and there's this

167
00:20:10,380 --> 00:20:16,860
VHS tape. I was getting up there and my friend Ben Church who we still play with in various bands,

168
00:20:16,860 --> 00:20:24,740
he was like, Hey, y'all, we're silent cow. And but COW, you know, silent cow play on words. And he

169
00:20:24,740 --> 00:20:32,060
can hear my uncle Jay go, Did he say silent cow? That's the worst band name I've ever heard in my

170
00:20:32,060 --> 00:20:38,980
life. That starts off the footage of my first show ever. So we needed a new name. Yeah, that's

171
00:20:38,980 --> 00:20:42,980
really bad. My brother was like, call it copper possum because he saw the sign on the way to

172
00:20:42,980 --> 00:20:48,580
Florida. So you were allowed to play in bars when you were 13 14. Yeah, they would clear, we'd play

173
00:20:48,580 --> 00:20:52,500
at seven or eight and they would clear us all out by 10 and let all the drinkers come in and all

174
00:20:52,500 --> 00:20:56,260
the parents would come pick up the kids. The parents didn't know we were all boozing in the

175
00:20:56,260 --> 00:21:02,100
parking lot though. So there's there's like a whole Bonneroo lot going on outside of Neals. And

176
00:21:02,100 --> 00:21:08,500
if a parent, we saw one of our parents or friends parents park, everybody would hide all the shit

177
00:21:08,500 --> 00:21:14,420
and watch them walk into Neals and then start partying again. So my sister reminded me that I

178
00:21:14,420 --> 00:21:20,260
got busted by my sister. I walked right past my mom, but it was the middle of July. And I had a

179
00:21:20,260 --> 00:21:27,220
park on 98 degrees outside. And I've got this Columbia winter puff jacket on just stuffed with

180
00:21:27,220 --> 00:21:33,140
like 24 natural lights. Oh my God. So like we're we're kind of we're kind of party. Was it a teal

181
00:21:33,140 --> 00:21:41,620
park? Cherry red. So he grew up quick. That's probably why we make sense together. Yeah, I grew

182
00:21:41,620 --> 00:21:47,540
up slow. I mean, when I was 13, I was listening to hauling oats in my bedroom, you know, playing

183
00:21:47,540 --> 00:21:55,620
with Star Wars figure. Yeah, I had a chapstick collection. Did you? Yeah. They were all used

184
00:21:55,620 --> 00:22:00,980
because I had to try them all out. An empty whiskey bottle collection. Yeah, it's really odd that two

185
00:22:00,980 --> 00:22:05,780
of my launch pad venues both burned down. Buccaneer and Neals. Right. Those are like where I played

186
00:22:05,780 --> 00:22:12,180
more gigs. But I think it's weird that the Buccaneer burned down. Right. The thing was waiting to go.

187
00:22:12,180 --> 00:22:18,020
Yeah. The little bit of time I was in Nashville, I went one of the few times I went out to go see

188
00:22:18,020 --> 00:22:26,100
a band. I went to the wrong basement. I spent $20 to get in there and then realize, oh wait,

189
00:22:26,100 --> 00:22:32,500
oh, this isn't the wrong place. Oh, it's terrible. And then by the time I found on the other basement,

190
00:22:32,500 --> 00:22:39,300
the band that I wanted to see was done. And I spent another cover. Bummer. Yeah. I guess that's

191
00:22:39,300 --> 00:22:44,820
all my fault. I want to play another turnstile song here if I might. I mean, that's why we're

192
00:22:44,820 --> 00:22:49,140
here for the kids to listen to the turnstiles. Yeah. What do you want to play next? It's a hit

193
00:22:49,140 --> 00:23:13,380
in 30 countries. Rise of my tears. Baby, I've been losing bad. I feel a stifling chill in place

194
00:23:13,380 --> 00:23:21,860
of love we have. Blinked my eyes goodbye you magic years. Feel the rise of my tears.

195
00:23:21,860 --> 00:23:33,300
Feel the rise of my tears. I turn to see your blood. Then you walk away. Compromise my fears.

196
00:23:33,300 --> 00:23:48,820
I feel the final cry you took away from me. From me. From me. Perpendicular dreams we had.

197
00:23:48,820 --> 00:23:56,260
There was a tiny hell where all the songs were sad. Cigarettes, ash, and abandoned beers.

198
00:23:56,260 --> 00:24:07,220
Feel the rise of my tears. Feel the rise of my tears. I turn to see your blood. Then you walk away.

199
00:24:07,220 --> 00:24:22,260
Compromise my fears. I feel the final cry you took away from me. From me. From me.

200
00:24:22,260 --> 00:24:36,260
Then found my four leaf clover from berries cloned. The fable's dead. Even though I know it's over, I can't shake.

201
00:24:36,260 --> 00:24:46,260
The things you said. The things that you said to me. To me. To me.

202
00:24:46,260 --> 00:24:56,260
Hiking left of west is tough. The spiteful look I sport. It just won't be enough.

203
00:24:56,260 --> 00:25:06,260
What am I when I'm without my tears? Feel the rise of my tears. Feel the rise of my tears.

204
00:25:06,260 --> 00:25:18,260
I turn to see your blood. Then you walk away. Compromise my fears. I feel the final cry you took away from me.

205
00:25:18,260 --> 00:25:40,260
Feel the rise of my tears. I turn to see your blood. Then you walk away. Compromise my fears. I feel the final cry you took away from me. From me. From me.

206
00:25:48,260 --> 00:25:56,260
That was Rise of My Tears by the Turnstiles written by Graham Winchester.

207
00:25:56,260 --> 00:25:58,260
That was with a drum machine.

208
00:25:58,260 --> 00:26:10,260
Kind of about like, you know, that thing in Memphis where it's like kind of a little big city. And if you like, it's kind of like a fictional account of like, you break up with somebody, but you still have to see them at all the same shows.

209
00:26:10,260 --> 00:26:14,260
I grew up a big fan of the band who we were talking about earlier.

210
00:26:14,260 --> 00:26:22,260
Oh, LeVon Helm. Yeah, and Robbie Robertson was so good at pen and lyrics that were as Dylan was, you know, like a story.

211
00:26:22,260 --> 00:26:26,260
As good as Dylan, you say?

212
00:26:26,260 --> 00:26:42,260
I think as far as painting the story, you know, like Take Even the Night They Dribbled Dixie Down, you know, he took information about the South that LeVon Helm had given him and wrote this fictional sort of like Civil War story, you know.

213
00:26:42,260 --> 00:26:43,260
Where was Robertson from?

214
00:26:43,260 --> 00:26:44,260
Canada.

215
00:26:44,260 --> 00:26:45,260
Okay.

216
00:26:45,260 --> 00:26:47,260
So he really put himself in the Southern Boy.

217
00:26:47,260 --> 00:26:49,260
So he's further north than Dylan.

218
00:26:49,260 --> 00:26:50,260
Right.

219
00:26:50,260 --> 00:26:53,260
Or John Fogarty born on the Bayou.

220
00:26:53,260 --> 00:26:57,260
California cat, right about the Bayou, you know, so just from Ohio.

221
00:26:57,260 --> 00:27:04,260
And I try to do a similar thing where like, I'll sneak Easter eggs of personal, deeply personal stuff in.

222
00:27:04,260 --> 00:27:07,260
We should try to write songs about being born like in Connecticut.

223
00:27:07,260 --> 00:27:09,260
Right. Go Huskies.

224
00:27:09,260 --> 00:27:10,260
Yeah.

225
00:27:10,260 --> 00:27:12,260
Let's drop this Memphis stuff.

226
00:27:12,260 --> 00:27:13,260
It's the Husky Rock.

227
00:27:13,260 --> 00:27:17,260
I write a lot in major key, but a lot of my lyrics are really sad.

228
00:27:17,260 --> 00:27:19,260
So it's a weird, bittersweet thing.

229
00:27:19,260 --> 00:27:22,260
I mean, I think that's a very Paul McCartney-ish thing to do.

230
00:27:22,260 --> 00:27:24,260
It's also a very Greg Cartwright-ish thing to do.

231
00:27:24,260 --> 00:27:25,260
Yeah.

232
00:27:25,260 --> 00:27:26,260
There's people that do it.

233
00:27:26,260 --> 00:27:27,260
Yeah, yeah.

234
00:27:27,260 --> 00:27:28,260
It's just, I've never done that.

235
00:27:28,260 --> 00:27:30,260
How many instruments do you play?

236
00:27:30,260 --> 00:27:32,260
Like you play more than just drums.

237
00:27:32,260 --> 00:27:37,260
Yeah, I do drums, keys, bass and guitar in that order probably.

238
00:27:37,260 --> 00:27:40,260
Have you ever recorded just everything all by yourself?

239
00:27:40,260 --> 00:27:42,260
A solo record, I just did.

240
00:27:42,260 --> 00:27:43,260
Definitely.

241
00:27:43,260 --> 00:27:44,260
Okay. A solo record.

242
00:27:44,260 --> 00:27:45,260
Oh, tell me about that.

243
00:27:45,260 --> 00:27:46,260
And it's called Nobody Waters, the Flowers.

244
00:27:46,260 --> 00:27:48,260
I did it during the pandemic.

245
00:27:48,260 --> 00:27:49,260
Yeah.

246
00:27:49,260 --> 00:27:50,260
That was in the major key probably, right?

247
00:27:50,260 --> 00:27:56,260
But I put it out online and then this red curtain records label that Scott McEwan, Patrick

248
00:27:56,260 --> 00:27:59,260
and Sean started out of Memphis Magnetic.

249
00:27:59,260 --> 00:28:00,260
Okay.

250
00:28:00,260 --> 00:28:02,260
They wanted to put it on vinyl and like, re-release it.

251
00:28:02,260 --> 00:28:04,260
So we just did a release party for that.

252
00:28:04,260 --> 00:28:05,260
Okay.

253
00:28:05,260 --> 00:28:09,260
But it's been online and all that crap for over a year, but it's, but now it's a vinyl.

254
00:28:09,260 --> 00:28:12,260
Dennis, can we get a link on that too?

255
00:28:12,260 --> 00:28:13,260
Sure.

256
00:28:13,260 --> 00:28:14,260
I can go to that.

257
00:28:14,260 --> 00:28:15,260
Nobody Waters, the Flowers.

258
00:28:15,260 --> 00:28:16,260
Yeah.

259
00:28:16,260 --> 00:28:18,260
It's on Apple Music Spotify, my band.

260
00:28:18,260 --> 00:28:21,260
I'll tell you one thing about the solo record.

261
00:28:21,260 --> 00:28:24,260
I got a solo record, turnstiles record tie in.

262
00:28:24,260 --> 00:28:50,260
They both start with my song Vampire and I didn't even mean for that to happen.

263
00:28:50,260 --> 00:29:02,260
But, yeah, thank you my dear friends.

264
00:29:02,260 --> 00:29:15,820
I just wanted to do one thing with you guys, one a day, nine times l 100 times, game a day

265
00:29:15,820 --> 00:29:19,800
with these folks who went to school and I got two like nine, four萬 home.

266
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:29,800
I could feel it in the air I could see it in her empty stare

267
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:36,800
Well nobody waters the flowers Cause this house just ain't home

268
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:45,800
I guess it's back to hammers and nails Since our love began to roam

269
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:54,800
Nobody sweeps up the cobwebs Ain't no welcome sign in front of the door

270
00:29:54,800 --> 00:30:00,800
Nobody waters the flowers anymore

271
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:11,800
I'd be a hypocrite to not admit I was guilty of the same old thing

272
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:20,800
Right after work I'd drive to Evergreen Open my nights for the brand new scene

273
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:29,800
I met a girl there named Rosalie She played Estella and she sang so sweet

274
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:37,800
One night we sang a song in harmony As they applauded she kissed my cheek

275
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:46,800
She could feel it in the air She could see it in my empty stare

276
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:54,800
Nobody waters the flowers Cause this house just ain't home

277
00:30:54,800 --> 00:31:02,800
I guess it's back to hammers and nails Since our love began to roam

278
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:11,800
Nobody sweeps up the cobwebs Ain't no welcome sign in front of the door

279
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:37,800
Nobody waters the flowers anymore

280
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:46,800
I guess it's time I moved on And moving on means I'm starting from scratch

281
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:54,800
Maybe I can find a new love To build a fire who's got a light of mass

282
00:31:54,800 --> 00:32:02,800
Cause I can feel it in there Cause I can see it in her empty stare

283
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:10,800
Nobody waters the flowers Cause this house just ain't home

284
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:19,800
I guess it's back to hammers and nails Since our love began to roam

285
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:28,800
Well, nobody sweeps up the cobwebs Ain't no welcome sign in front of the door

286
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:43,800
Nobody waters the flowers anymore

287
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:53,800
When I got divorced with my first wife that didn't care that I joined that band

288
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,800
What year did you get divorced, sir?

289
00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:07,800
2005 And that's when, miraculously, at the same time, I met this wild woman named Courtney

290
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:15,800
And she convinced me to start a punk band, which we did called The Alibis

291
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:24,800
She's a very talented singer that sat in with the Hawaiian band that I was in

292
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:36,800
And I knew she was good because when we were finished with the song, I apologized to her about how the band wasn't good enough for her singing

293
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:42,800
This woman can actually sing, this is terrible. I wanted a terrible singer to sit in with this band

294
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,800
You say that to a girl you like

295
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:50,800
Yeah, well, let's play one more Turnstile song or maybe a few more

296
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,800
Sound of my tears, sorry

297
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:53,800
Which one?

298
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,800
No, I said Sound of my Tears

299
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:56,800
Oh, I thought that was a Turnstile song

300
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:57,800
I'm just being a nut

301
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,800
Right, okay, so what's next on the old Turnstiles?

302
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,800
How about a...

303
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,800
Suicide Surf Break

304
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:21,800
Music

305
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,800
Cold water, no soup

306
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:31,800
Night surf, with no scab

307
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:37,800
Cold water, just me

308
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:43,800
One wrong move, I'm free

309
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,800
Two times the best, who says

310
00:34:47,800 --> 00:35:05,800
A dark contest of the world, yeah

311
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:09,800
Cold water, each break

312
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:15,800
One right move, I'm straight

313
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:21,800
Cold water, just me

314
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:27,800
One wrong move, I'm free

315
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,800
Two times the best, who says

316
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:37,800
A dark contest of the world, yeah

317
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:53,800
Music

318
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:59,800
Two times the best, who says

319
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:05,800
A dark contest of the world, yeah

320
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,800
Suicide Surf Break

321
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:15,800
Cold water, just me

322
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,800
Music

323
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,800
Were we in Wilmington?

324
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,800
Yeah, so...

325
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,800
Coco, you met Coco?

326
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:25,800
Yeah, and then I left my...

327
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:26,800
Heart and...

328
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,800
Wife, and then I ended up dating and...

329
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,800
Wait, you left your ex-wife?

330
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:31,800
Yes, okay

331
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:32,800
And then the alibis?

332
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,800
Yeah, we started a new band and it was fun

333
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,800
I had a connection in Nashville to move to Nashville

334
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,800
These folks from LA that were moving to Nashville

335
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:46,800
At the same time I was wanting to get out of Wilmington

336
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,800
All right, here's my connection

337
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,800
Eddie Van Halen's guitar tech

338
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,800
So, yeah, I quit my job

339
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,800
And then we sold our house

340
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,800
And made plans to move

341
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,800
Coco and I

342
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,800
And our two children

343
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,800
But the night before we left Wilmington

344
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:14,800
I had a gig to open up for a band that I'd never heard of

345
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:16,800
Called Jacko and the Sheiks

346
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:17,800
On a Monday

347
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:18,800
Street town

348
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,800
And the band that I was in, Deadly Low Five

349
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,800
Were set to open up for them

350
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,800
So that day I told Courtney

351
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,800
I'm not playing this gig, it's Monday

352
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,800
Nobody goes out on a Monday

353
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,800
And we're moving tomorrow

354
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,800
I'm not gonna stay up late

355
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,800
Playing some crap gig

356
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,800
And she said, well, wait, who are you open up for?

357
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,800
I said, some band called Jacko and the Sheiks

358
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,800
And she said, Jack Oblivion?

359
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,800
I'm like, what?

360
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:50,800
Jack Oblivion?

361
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:51,800
Yeah, I guess so

362
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,800
And she said, oh, that's so Jack Oblivion

363
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,800
You from the Oblivions?

364
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,800
And I said, I don't know

365
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,800
She said, they're amazing

366
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,800
You have to play this gig

367
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,800
So I was like, ugh

368
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,800
So I played the gig

369
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,800
But then at that show

370
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,800
Met Jack and Graham

371
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:13,800
And Frank and Keith

372
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,800
And we all, you know, we matched up

373
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:19,800
Personality wise

374
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:21,800
And then they had me sit in with them

375
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,800
On the sax, which was a blast

376
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:27,800
At the end of the show, Jack said

377
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,800
It was too bad, you know, to live closer to Memphis

378
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,800
And I said, well, actually I'm moving to Nashville tomorrow

379
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:36,800
And he said, oh, we're playing in Nashville

380
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,800
Day after tomorrow, exit in

381
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:41,800
Come sit in with us again

382
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,800
So I moved and then sat in with them again

383
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,800
This big, bigger club in Nashville

384
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,800
Which was a blast

385
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,800
We drank a lot of tequila

386
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:54,800
It was amazing, so much fun

387
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,800
Which was right before

388
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,800
Gonerfest

389
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,800
I got to get out of Nashville

390
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:02,800
And move to Memphis

391
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,800
So we had a six month lease

392
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,800
On our apartment in Donaldson

393
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,800
We rode it out

394
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,800
Throwing our money out the window

395
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,800
On a crazy lease on a crap apartment

396
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,800
And then bought a house in Cooper Young

397
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:18,800
And here we are

398
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:20,800
You're right, these guys don't

399
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,800
Immediately offend me

400
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:24,800
I'm a personal security level

401
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,800
I'm going to be friends with them

402
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,800
We all gelled, you know

403
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,800
You're like a long lost member

404
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,800
And the first gig I played

405
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,800
Actually as a resident

406
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,800
Because I drove down here all the time

407
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,800
Within those six months and played

408
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,800
Shows with them and stayed at Jack's apartment

409
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,800
But the first weekend I was here

410
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:45,800
Was the David Bowie benefit

411
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:47,800
At Minglewood Hall

412
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:49,800
Which was massive

413
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:51,800
We were there, it was so great

414
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:53,800
The first weekend you were here

415
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,800
When I met you

416
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,800
I moved here on a Tuesday

417
00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:59,800
And that was the Saturday or Friday

418
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:01,800
I thought you had already been here forever

419
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:03,800
I've been here a lot before

420
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:05,800
But I actually lived here

421
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,800
We were sort of the latest mystery

422
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,800
Rocker to show up

423
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,800
It was like summer of 2015

424
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,800
Through December 2015

425
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,800
Memphis is so kind to newcomers

426
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,800
It's Athens and other cities

427
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:19,800
Music cities that I've lived in

428
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:21,800
If you're a new guy on the scene

429
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,800
They're like

430
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,800
What?

431
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:27,800
Okay, wow, alright

432
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,800
Now I was curious about how you got here

433
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,800
When you got here and when you met Graham

434
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,800
Yeah, it's pretty wild, that's the story

435
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:35,800
I remember one of the first shows we played

436
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:37,800
In Memphis at DK

437
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,800
I think I like threw you in my car

438
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,800
And started playing

439
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,800
What was it, Jesse Winchester for you?

440
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,800
Yeah, I don't know

441
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:47,800
He played me one of the tearjerker songs

442
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:49,800
We had an early moment

443
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,800
I'm sitting there going, what's wrong with this guy?

444
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:53,800
I'm like, get in the car now

445
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,800
I don't want to cry right now

446
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,800
I want a tequila shot

447
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,800
It's a minor six, so what's going on here?

448
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:01,800
Well, when did you guys decide to

449
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,800
Just have the

450
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:05,800
Toosom?

451
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,800
I could spend five years now

452
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,800
Yeah, I think we had a gig with

453
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,800
More than Toosom

454
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,800
Right? And we didn't want to give it up

455
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,800
So you said let's just do it

456
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,800
And we did

457
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,800
And it was great

458
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,800
It worked and

459
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,800
We started off doing a thing

460
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,800
That was like, I think a delusional

461
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:27,800
Fantasy of mine where we would

462
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,800
Switch off playing drums and guitar

463
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,800
But I'm just such a not

464
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,800
Comfortable guitar player compared to Seth

465
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:34,800
I'm such a

466
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:35,800
Libyans used to do that

467
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:37,800
And I would just get on the guitar and be like

468
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,800
Oh my god, he should just be playing guitar

469
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,800
Yeah, and I wouldn't that get on the drums

470
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,800
You're a great drummer

471
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,800
And you're a lot greater at drums than I am

472
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:47,800
No, no, no, everybody would be like

473
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,800
Okay, wait, when are they going to go back

474
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:51,800
To the real songs?

475
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,800
Let's play another turnstile song

476
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,800
What was one of the

477
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:57,800
Other ones you wanted to play at this point?

478
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,800
I think maybe Over You

479
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:01,800
Over You? Which I think is

480
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,800
One of Coco's faves

481
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:13,800
Yeah, that's a great song

482
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,800
Never breathing always in full throttle

483
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,800
Should've spent all of the extra time with you

484
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:45,800
Well, look at me, look at me

485
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,800
I'm lonely as can be

486
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,800
But I'm Over You

487
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,800
At least

488
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,800
That sadistic in my smile

489
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,800
My last little while

490
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,800
But I'm Over You

491
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,800
At least

492
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,800
No more table

493
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,800
Sit at the bar and join an old man's table

494
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,800
Happy hour never looked so sad before

495
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,800
This wirehead spider

496
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:42,800
Always asking for a signal liner

497
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,800
Smoke another and I walk right out the door

498
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,800
Well, look at me, look at me

499
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,800
I'm lonely as can be

500
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,800
But I'm Over You

501
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,800
At least

502
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,800
That sadistic in my smile

503
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,800
My last little while

504
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,800
But I'm Over You

505
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:13,800
At least

506
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,800
I'm Over You

507
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:20,800
At least

508
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:25,800
Yes, I'm Over You

509
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,800
At least

510
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,800
At least

511
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:43,800
Okay, that was Over You by the turnstiles.

512
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:45,800
What's the story on that?

513
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:47,800
Is there a story on that?

514
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,800
It's the narrator, the character in it

515
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,800
is saying that they're over somebody

516
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:55,800
and you can just tell by the vibe.

517
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,800
Do you write it?

518
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,800
You're writing a lot of songs about heartbreak, breakups.

519
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:02,800
Yeah, and they're poignant.

520
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,800
Before you got married.

521
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,800
I wrote that one after marriage.

522
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,800
No, Over You is written during COVID.

523
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,800
Then there was all the COVID stuff

524
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,800
and then a lot of the

525
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,800
protests and police involved.

526
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,800
There was so much to write about

527
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,800
and so much heartbreak to draw from.

528
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,800
There's beautiful stuff too.

529
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,800
I was writing...

530
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:32,800
That's where the...

531
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:35,800
was Graham playing guitar and singing in the bathtub.

532
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,800
I put on a suit and played in my bathtub.

533
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:40,800
Yeah, Graham did like...

534
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,800
It was like for three hours and the water got cold.

535
00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:45,800
Do we need to queue that?

536
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,800
The water got cold and then I had one of my solo vinyl

537
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:50,800
on the side of the tub.

538
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,800
But the humidity made the artwork bleed.

539
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,800
So the water turned green like my album cover.

540
00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,800
So I'm sitting in this cold swamp water after three hours.

541
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:01,800
Cold green water.

542
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:03,800
It's really funny. Teal.

543
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,800
I heard a dude talking shit about the fact that I did that.

544
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,800
Talking shit.

545
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:11,800
He was talking shit on social media.

546
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,800
And Frank and Keith defended me,

547
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,800
but this guy two years ago was like,

548
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,800
remember when that midtown hipster got in his bathtub

549
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,800
to try to get attention and was begging for cash apps

550
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,800
while playing a show?

551
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,800
And like Frank and Keith defended me

552
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,800
and sent me screenshots of the thread.

553
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,800
But it's funny because more than one person thought

554
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:32,800
that that was some elaborate plan.

555
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,800
I decided I was going to do a show in the bathtub

556
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,800
probably 10 minutes before I did it.

557
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:38,800
Just me being weird and random.

558
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:40,800
It was great.

559
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:42,800
I think 3,000 people watched it or something.

560
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:44,800
That was fun.

561
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,800
I think 3 million would have watched it.

562
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:48,800
That guitar plan sucked.

563
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,800
The guitar got wet.

564
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,800
Every time I moved my hand at all, there's this enormous squeak.

565
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,800
It's unbelievable.

566
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:56,800
Squeak like burning for you, blue-oashed or cold.

567
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,800
Yeah.

568
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,800
Just needed the cowbell.

569
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:02,800
I hear the squeaks and the chords.

570
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:04,800
What's going on here?

571
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,800
John Bonham's kick drum pedal.

572
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,800
What's coming up ahead for you guys?

573
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:10,800
Shows back in North Carolina.

574
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:12,800
In Wilmington.

575
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:14,800
I've been there a long time.

576
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,800
It's weird. I'm starting to have dreams about Wilmington.

577
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,800
I had one today.

578
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,800
Two of them.

579
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,800
That's crazy.

580
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:24,800
You took an afternoon nap and dreamed of Wilmington.

581
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:26,800
I noticed a Wilmington resident

582
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:28,800
reached out to the turnstiles messenger.

583
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:30,800
I've been getting lots of people saying,

584
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:32,800
I didn't know you were coming.

585
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,800
Why didn't you tell me?

586
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:36,800
It's been booked for like a week.

587
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,800
You're like, where are you staying?

588
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:40,800
You're like at Candyland, of course.

589
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,800
It's been booked for a week

590
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:44,800
and it's still months out.

591
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:46,800
You don't remember why I left.

592
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:48,800
Real quick,

593
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,800
let's talk about the European tour

594
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,800
and then let's play a song.

595
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:54,800
I don't know how many songs we have.

596
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,800
I guess we could play anything we want.

597
00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,800
Talk about

598
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:00,800
where you played

599
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:02,800
stories and stuff

600
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:04,800
just real quick before we get out of here.

601
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:06,800
We could play Lost in Prague, which is on the list.

602
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:08,800
Oh, there you go.

603
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:10,800
We could play Lost in Prague.

604
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,800
And we kind of got lost.

605
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,800
Yes, physically and emotionally.

606
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:16,800
Actually, we did get lost.

607
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:18,800
Alright, hold on.

608
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,800
Let's play Lost in Prague and when we come back,

609
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:40,800
we'll play Lost in Prague.

610
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:50,800
This beer is glad what you paid for that 100 crowns.

611
00:48:50,800 --> 00:49:00,800
But Lost in Prague.

612
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:26,800
Lost in Prague.

613
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:32,800
Where's this bus going? No way of knowing that she's right.

614
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:34,800
She said it's downtown.

615
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:40,800
Now I feel like a clown and she lied.

616
00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:50,800
We're Lost in Prague.

617
00:49:50,800 --> 00:50:00,800
Yeah, we're Lost in Prague.

618
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:32,800
We're in a hotel.

619
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:34,800
It's got a strange smell.

620
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,800
Give me a smoke.

621
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:40,800
Got a pencil from the street.

622
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,800
Make it look not to eat.

623
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:46,800
I'm gonna choke.

624
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,800
Yeah, we're Lost.

625
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:56,800
Yeah, we're Lost in Prague.

626
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:14,800
Yeah, we're Lost in Prague.

627
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:26,800
Okay, that was Lost in Prague by the Turn Styles off Turn Styles 2,

628
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,800
which is a black and white release.

629
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,800
What year did that come out? That came out.

630
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,800
22.

631
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,800
But I wrote the song when I went to Prague initially,

632
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,800
which was 2008.

633
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:38,800
And we got, Coco and I got lost.

634
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:42,800
Oh, I thought it was you guys getting Lost in Prague.

635
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,800
You know what? It's hilarious.

636
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:46,800
I wrote it about getting Lost in Prague.

637
00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:52,800
And then lo and behold, Graham and I got Lost in Prague.

638
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:56,800
Prague is a MF'er of a city.

639
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:00,800
Yeah, if you don't get Lost, there's something wrong with you.

640
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:02,800
You have a really good iPhone.

641
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:04,800
The streets are ancient.

642
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,800
If I'm an English-speaking American and I go to Prague

643
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:08,800
and I feel at home, that's not normal.

644
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:10,800
Yeah, the signs aren't in English.

645
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:12,800
There's not a lot of English-speaking though.

646
00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:14,800
It's the different.

647
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,800
In Germany, you can talk to anybody, but I felt they don't really want to speak English.

648
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:18,800
They don't want to speak English.

649
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,800
I'm pretty sure they do.

650
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,800
So many tourists there.

651
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:26,800
Yeah, it was also kind of a peak moment of our fatigue.

652
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:30,800
We made it out of the old city,

653
00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,800
but we were trying to figure out where we were going after the old city.

654
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:38,800
I was wanting to just to get a motel room, but um...

655
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,800
Well, anyway.

656
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:42,800
So usually, like when bands from Memphis have gone over,

657
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,800
they have a guide that takes a bit of her jack talk about this.

658
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,800
Yeah, yeah.

659
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,800
We usually have a guide.

660
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:52,800
We were just us in a Hyundai rental SUV.

661
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:54,800
I figured it's just the two of us.

662
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,800
We don't want to spend half our budget on a guy.

663
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:00,800
Sure.

664
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:02,800
But...

665
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,800
That was the right call though.

666
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:06,800
I think.

667
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:10,800
It was funny, but yeah, it was a little bit stressful every now and then.

668
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,800
Especially since when my eyes started going...

669
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,800
His eyes started going and then I can't drive a stick shift.

670
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,800
And yeah, it was a manual transmission.

671
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:23,800
So Seth was doing all the driving.

672
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:26,800
Wait, so you're saying when you rented the car,

673
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:28,800
you had no choice but to get a straight shift?

674
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:30,800
Well, it was a lot cheaper.

675
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,800
You know, we're on pension pennies.

676
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:35,800
And I like driving.

677
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:37,800
Well, how many dates did you have?

678
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:39,800
12.

679
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:41,800
Guarantees.

680
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,800
So you budgeted the whole thing out.

681
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:45,800
You got free food, right?

682
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:47,800
Free food, free accommodations.

683
00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:49,800
Head perfume.

684
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:51,800
Right, with black and white.

685
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:53,800
Renee.

686
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:55,800
So you wanted to come back with a thousand bucks, right?

687
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:57,800
At least two and each.

688
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:59,800
We wanted to pay for our...

689
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:03,800
Yeah, and this first time we did spend money on the drums,

690
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:05,800
we were now there anytime we need them.

691
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:09,800
We spent money on some CDs and stuff.

692
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:11,800
And the hocus.

693
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:13,800
The hocus.

694
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:15,800
The next time, you'll never know.

695
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:19,800
The next time we're more set up to profit even more.

696
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:21,800
For one thing, we've already got turnstiles,

697
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:23,800
two copies there.

698
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,800
And we'll hopefully get more guarantees,

699
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:27,800
because now they know we kind of rock.

700
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,800
Right, right, right.

701
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:31,800
There were a lot of little towns

702
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:33,800
that of course had never heard of us.

703
00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:35,800
Actually, everywhere we went, they had nerds.

704
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:37,800
Right.

705
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:39,800
They knew some of them might have known we played with Jack.

706
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:41,800
But it was...

707
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:43,800
We made a really good impression.

708
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:45,800
And at the end of the night,

709
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,800
every place we played

710
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,800
really wanted us to come back.

711
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,800
I mean, even so, we played in...

712
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:53,800
in...

713
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:55,800
So our last show...

714
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:57,800
Accidentally, because you were lost.

715
00:54:57,800 --> 00:54:59,800
Our last show was in Dresden.

716
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:01,800
We played Dresden, then we were going to play Dresden.

717
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:03,800
Wait, hold on. I thought we bombed Dresden.

718
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:05,800
I thought it was off the map.

719
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:07,800
I know. That's over on it.

720
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:09,800
And Renee loves to, like, unashamedly

721
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:11,800
talk about it humorously.

722
00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:13,800
And we're just like, we turn red.

723
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:15,800
Renee, the head perforator.

724
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:17,800
He's like, look at us. Two Americans in the German.

725
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,800
Actually getting along after the bombing.

726
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:21,800
Oh, brother, you're like awkward.

727
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:23,800
We were told not to bring it up, and he's bringing it up.

728
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:25,800
You know, I think 80 years ago, I think it's okay.

729
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:27,800
Right.

730
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:29,800
There's been some time.

731
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:31,800
Wilmington, on the other hand,

732
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:33,800
you wouldn't want to, you know.

733
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:35,800
But go ahead.

734
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:37,800
11th show out of 12 shows

735
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:39,800
was in Dresden, right?

736
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:41,800
And the folks that

737
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:43,800
saw us in Weinbülle,

738
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:45,800
which was, what, an hour and a half away,

739
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:47,800
all got on a train

740
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:49,800
and came up and showed up.

741
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:51,800
Wow. Had the Dresden show.

742
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:53,800
It was fantastic.

743
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:55,800
And then the second Dresden show had just as many people

744
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:57,800
as the first Dresden show,

745
00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:59,800
which was nice to play the same city

746
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:01,800
twice in a week and have full energy.

747
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,800
Yeah, it's like all of a sudden we felt like

748
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:05,800
we were regulars,

749
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:07,800
because we recognized all these people.

750
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:09,800
But hell, we'd only been over there for a couple of weeks.

751
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:11,800
And the Weinbülle guy.

752
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,800
So of course we have to go back.

753
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:15,800
And the owner of the club,

754
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:17,800
and Weinbülle is a true rocker,

755
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:19,800
really hip to all the Memphis stuff, you know.

756
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:21,800
And he, at the end of the night,

757
00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,800
you boys, after you pack up,

758
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,800
you have a Antonio Goodnight beer with me.

759
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:27,800
And like, we just buddied up.

760
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,800
Was that a metaphor?

761
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:31,800
And he was just talking about rock and roll

762
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:33,800
and he kept going,

763
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:35,800
we are dust compared to you Memphians.

764
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,800
Did you guys go to Hamburg?

765
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:39,800
Yep, we had a great show there.

766
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:41,800
Oh, wow.

767
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:43,800
A good punk show.

768
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:45,800
And got accosted by prostitutes the whole way there.

769
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:47,800
Hey, Hamburg hasn't lost it yet.

770
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:49,800
They all looked like the Kardashians, though.

771
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:51,800
It was crazy.

772
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:53,800
Lots of lip injections.

773
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:55,800
Lots of plastic surgery.

774
00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:57,800
Somehow that's supposed to attract it.

775
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,800
Well, it's weird, because we two were there in 2014.

776
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:01,800
Where are you going?

777
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:03,800
Away from you?

778
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:05,800
Like Burger King into the show.

779
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:07,800
Straight to bed.

780
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:09,800
Anywhere.

781
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:11,800
I'm a married dad.

782
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:13,800
It'd be more sexy to hump my pillow.

783
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:15,800
Right.

784
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:17,800
Those aren't pillows.

785
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:19,800
I played in Hamburg in the past.

786
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:21,800
I played in Hamburg 2012,

787
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:23,800
2014, 2016.

788
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:25,800
And walking by the red light district.

789
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:27,800
Yeah, the girls didn't look like that.

790
00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:29,800
That was a recent phenomena.

791
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:31,800
Yeah, right.

792
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:33,800
So much plastic surgery and lips the size of that mixer.

793
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:35,800
Did you play Berlin?

794
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:37,800
No, we had a Berlin show at Wild at Heart.

795
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:39,800
And then I think it's sad

796
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:41,800
because I think the venue and Renee

797
00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:43,800
had perfume wanted us there.

798
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:45,800
But I think we didn't quite fit

799
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:47,800
the bill.

800
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:49,800
And probably the other bands were like,

801
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:51,800
this isn't a match of our genre.

802
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:53,800
Did you get a feel?

803
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:55,800
They want us back at Wild at Heart when we go back.

804
00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:57,800
Well, cool.

805
00:57:57,800 --> 00:57:59,800
Did you get a feel in Germany that,

806
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:01,800
well, of course, you're in the rock and roll culture.

807
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:03,800
So it's not really maybe the mass culture, obviously.

808
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:05,800
Right.

809
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:07,800
I was in Berlin a long time ago.

810
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:09,800
I was on showing movies.

811
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:11,800
But I was in this rockabilly world

812
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:13,800
where everything seemed to be,

813
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:15,800
you know,

814
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:17,800
fashion and rockabilly

815
00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:19,800
very, very astute.

816
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:21,800
People who were

817
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:23,800
elitist, rockabilly

818
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:25,800
and the bartenders all looked

819
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,800
like they were rockabilly people.

820
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:29,800
That's a very northern Europe thing.

821
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:31,800
We saw that more

822
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:33,800
in Denmark when we played

823
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:35,800
with Jack at the

824
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:37,800
Denmark Festival.

825
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:39,800
There's a lot of that in Finland, Norway,

826
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:41,800
Denmark, Sweden.

827
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:43,800
Gutter Island.

828
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:45,800
It's like I'm in there going,

829
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:47,800
I'm not worthy.

830
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:49,800
And I'm like, oh, wait, I'm from Tupelo.

831
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:51,800
Yeah, it's like you're the real deal.

832
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:53,800
Yeah. Yeah, you didn't spend $300

833
00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:55,800
on a pearl snap shirt.

834
00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:57,800
Well, it's almost the way like Dallas was,

835
00:58:57,800 --> 00:58:59,800
you know, or maybe even Tokyo is in some parts.

836
00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:01,800
It was nuts. It was intimidating.

837
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:03,800
I miss that game. I was in Malmo.

838
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:05,800
You know what? Maybe what you guys

839
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:07,800
actually were encountering were

840
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:09,800
Teddy boys that were mummified or something.

841
00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:11,800
Dude. Hey, that's a film right there.

842
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:13,800
That's a film.

843
00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:15,800
I know. Teddy, but you can't get

844
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:17,800
much cooler than Teddy boys. Mummified

845
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:19,800
Teddy boys. The Beatles wanted to be Teddy boys.

846
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:21,800
Do you guys do any Eddie Cochran

847
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:23,800
or Gene Vincent over there?

848
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,800
No, we did some Carl Perkins, Billy Riley.

849
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:27,800
I've heard the Europeans go apeshit

850
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,800
when you play Eddie Cochran or Gene Vincent.

851
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:31,800
Oh, yeah. Yeah.

852
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:33,800
Just saying. They went apeshit when we did

853
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:35,800
any old son stuff.

854
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:37,800
Carl Perkins. We did

855
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:39,800
the play that composed. Oh, well, you could

856
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:41,800
expect that. We played Stop

857
00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:43,800
and Think It Over by Compulsive Gamblers a few times.

858
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:45,800
Oh, and Michael real quick, Michael

859
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,800
Donahue told me when he interviewed

860
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:49,800
Carl Perkins, George Harrison

861
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:51,800
called him on his cell.

862
00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:53,800
What now? Say that again. Michael Donahue

863
00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:55,800
got to interview Carl Perkins

864
00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:57,800
once. Yeah. And George

865
00:59:57,800 --> 00:59:59,800
Harrison called him on either his home

866
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:01,800
or his cell phone at the time.

867
01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:03,800
Called Carl. Yeah, like Carl was a

868
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:05,800
hello and blah, blah, blah. He was like, that was George.

869
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:07,800
That was George. Yeah. That was George Harrison

870
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:09,800
saying, wait, how did you play that G

871
01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:11,800
going into C7?

872
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:13,800
Yeah.

873
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:15,800
What's the 7th

874
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:17,800
chord again? So have you guys

875
01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:19,800
heard of Bethel Springs?

876
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:21,800
I've heard of that. What is that?

877
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:23,800
Bethel Springs is up

878
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:25,800
toward the county

879
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:27,800
state line with Tennessee

880
01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:29,800
and Mississippi and all that.

881
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:31,800
And I had the pleasure of talking

882
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:33,800
to this lady at the Mid-South Con,

883
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:35,800
the Syfy Con appropriately

884
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:37,800
because Rockabilly and Syfy

885
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,800
are just like, you know, same time

886
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:41,800
period.

887
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:43,800
And she

888
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:45,800
is a tourism director

889
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:47,800
in the town where Buford Pusser

890
01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:49,800
is from, which leads, goes back to

891
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:51,800
our Eddie Bond conversations with Joey Killingsworth

892
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:53,800
last podcast.

893
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:55,800
But she's like, and we're doing all this

894
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:57,800
great stuff in Bethel Springs.

895
01:00:57,800 --> 01:00:59,800
Bethel Springs is where it's at. People love

896
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:01,800
to come to, Europeans come to Bethel Springs

897
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:03,800
and I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute.

898
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,800
What's Bethel Springs?

899
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:07,800
And she goes, well, that's the first

900
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,800
time that Carl met Elvis at Bethel Springs

901
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:11,800
when they had a Rockabilly show together.

902
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:13,800
And I'm like, I'm like, okay.

903
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:15,800
So that

904
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,800
is considered the birthplace

905
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:19,800
of Rockabilly because Carl met

906
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:21,800
Elvis at Bethel Springs.

907
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:23,800
That's what she said. Now you would

908
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:25,800
think, but Carl

909
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:27,800
was hanging out at sun, right?

910
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:29,800
But maybe he never met.

911
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:31,800
We're talking 50. We must be talking

912
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:33,800
about 54. I believe it, but

913
01:01:33,800 --> 01:01:35,800
it's just wild that people would

914
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:37,800
go eight shit over

915
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:39,800
something like that. Well, they

916
01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:41,800
got their historic marker.

917
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:43,800
They have shows there. And that's

918
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:45,800
why when you're a Memphis

919
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:47,800
teeny little band like the Turnstiles

920
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:49,800
and you go to play Europe

921
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:51,800
for the first time,

922
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:53,800
people show up because the flyer

923
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:55,800
says, from Memphis.

924
01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:57,800
Right. Okay. So we're going to play.

925
01:01:57,800 --> 01:01:59,800
What are we playing? One

926
01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:01,800
of many use.

927
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:03,800
Why? Why are you

928
01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:05,800
being recorded and it's going to come out on

929
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:07,800
something. It's recorded already.

930
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:09,800
And it's going to come out on

931
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:11,800
record called Turnstiles

932
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:13,800
Cloned where we play

933
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:15,800
other instruments other than the drums

934
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:17,800
and the guitar. I guess if it wasn't recorded,

935
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:19,800
we wouldn't be playing it right now.

936
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:21,800
Or we'd be waiting. The podcast

937
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:23,800
would have to wait till it's recorded.

938
01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:25,800
So our next release is going to be

939
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:27,800
by that time we'll be broken up.

940
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:29,800
Right. You won't even be together. Never.

941
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:31,800
Screw that. Jerk.

942
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:33,800
I'm never letting you go. Winchester.

943
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:35,800
I'm going back to Wilmington. That teal ass mother fucker.

944
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:37,800
I'm already back in Wilmington.

945
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:39,800
I'm back with my first life.

946
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,800
I'm back in Billy Goat

947
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:43,800
baby in the broccoli.

948
01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:45,800
Copper possum. Here we come.

949
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:59,800
Alright. Here we go.

950
01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:01,800
What are you going to say?

951
01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:03,800
Don't go your way.

952
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:05,800
The power of the pedestal you put in place.

953
01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:07,800
The whole wide world sees the egg on your face.

954
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:09,800
What are you going to do?

955
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:11,800
For one, for two.

956
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,800
What are you going to do? For one, for two.

957
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:19,800
The power of denial ain't absolute.

958
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:21,800
The latitude's on your birthday too.

959
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:23,800
One of many of you.

960
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:27,800
The world has plenty of you.

961
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,800
One of many of you.

962
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:43,800
The world has plenty of you.

963
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:45,800
Where you going to go? They don't catch the flow.

964
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:51,800
Big shots shenanigans turn me off.

965
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:53,800
Everyone would rather that the bed be soft.

966
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:57,800
What are you going to say? It doesn't go your way.

967
01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:01,800
The power of the pedestal you put in place.

968
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,800
The whole wide world sees the egg on your face.

969
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:07,800
One of many of you.

970
01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:15,800
The world has plenty of you.

971
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:31,800
The world has plenty of you.

972
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:55,800
The world has plenty of you.

973
01:04:55,800 --> 01:05:04,800
