- 0:29SPEAKER_00: I'm not attractive.
- 0:31SPEAKER_04: Alright.
- 0:32SPEAKER_04: As long as you're willing to admit.
- 0:40SPEAKER_04: Welcome to the O'Brien and Doug podcast.
- 0:42SPEAKER_04: I'm O'Brien.
- 0:44SPEAKER_09: Are we going?
- 0:44SPEAKER_09: Yeah, we're going.
- 0:46SPEAKER_09: We're going.
- 0:46SPEAKER_09: I wasn't ready.
- 0:47SPEAKER_09: Oh, sorry.
- 0:48SPEAKER_09: Shall I start over?
- 0:49SPEAKER_09: No.
- 0:50SPEAKER_09: Okay.
- 0:53SPEAKER_10: Do that again.
- 0:53SPEAKER_10: I'm O'Brien?
- 0:54SPEAKER_10: I'm Doug.
- 0:56SPEAKER_10: Hey yo.
- 0:58SPEAKER_10: We're back.
- 0:59SPEAKER_10: We're back.
- 1:00SPEAKER_10: We're a little I'm a little hinky.
- 1:02SPEAKER_10: Because you're playing with the batteries.
- 1:04SPEAKER_10: I'm not going to be able to do that.
- 1:04SPEAKER_04: Well, I was going to say, because we were just talking about before.
- 1:06SPEAKER_04: This is episode 144, by the way.
- 1:09SPEAKER_04: And so we have this.
- 1:12SPEAKER_04: I think I don't know how long we've been using this now.
- 1:14SPEAKER_04: For quite a while.
- 1:16SPEAKER_04: Podcast 4 from Zoom.
- 1:18SPEAKER_04: Zoom, yeah.
- 1:19SPEAKER_04: Zoom, Zoom, Zoom.
- 1:20SPEAKER_04: It's a little podcast recorder that we record the podcast on.
- 1:24SPEAKER_04: Thanks to Doug, actually, for contributing to the podcast.
- 1:28SPEAKER_04: And another thing that you contributed to the podcast, because and I don't know why, I don't know how, but we used to go, so we we don't have um a AC adapter for the podcast for.
- 1:42SPEAKER_10: See, I don't understand why it didn't come with one.
- 1:44SPEAKER_10: You're right.
- 1:45SPEAKER_10: You would think it would come with an AC adapter.
- 1:47SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 1:48SPEAKER_04: But it didn't.
- 1:49SPEAKER_04: It didn't.
- 1:49SPEAKER_10: I mean, that's that's its one failing.
- 1:52SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 1:52SPEAKER_04: So so another contribution that you made to the podcast is you came in with this gigantic package of double A batteries.
- 2:00SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 2:00SPEAKER_04: And that's what we've been using.
- 2:02SPEAKER_04: But the thing about the podcast 4, I don't know why, is it would eat two AA batteries in one podcast setting.
- 2:10SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 2:11SPEAKER_04: Like one one hour podcast or whatever, hour and a half, whatever it is that we do, um, and the batteries would be almost dead, completely dead.
- 2:20SPEAKER_04: And so we just kept using batteries and replacing them for every podcast.
- 2:25SPEAKER_04: And I'm just double checking again.
- 2:27SPEAKER_04: It still says, because you came in, because I want to give them a plug, I guess.
- 2:33SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 2:34SPEAKER_04: You came in with uh a set of lithium-ion batteries that are rechargeable from a company called Pale Blue.
- 2:43SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they're out of Utah.
- 2:44SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I was gonna say it's an American company, you said.
- 2:46SPEAKER_04: Um, and so there are four batteries in this little package, and there is a USB charger that you plug into the batteries and then plug it into a USB somewhere and and charge them.
- 2:59SPEAKER_04: They're rechargeable.
- 3:01SPEAKER_04: And so the tops turn green.
- 3:04SPEAKER_04: Yes, yes, yes, they do.
- 3:05SPEAKER_04: And so so the last yeah.
- 3:09SPEAKER_04: The last two podcasts.
- 3:12SPEAKER_04: So not last last week's, but the week before, right?
- 3:15SPEAKER_10: Yeah, I think so.
- 3:17SPEAKER_04: Um I put a pair of these in.
- 3:20SPEAKER_04: And then you came back last week and it was they were still a hundred percent charged.
- 3:26SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 3:26SPEAKER_04: And then we just sat down just now to do this episode, and it's still a hundred percent charged.
- 3:34SPEAKER_10: Yeah, it doesn't it doesn't make any sense.
- 3:35SPEAKER_04: It doesn't make any sense.
- 3:36SPEAKER_04: So I I if it's actually charged, then we have to give pale blue a plug.
- 3:42SPEAKER_10: Yeah, because that's amazing.
- 3:44SPEAKER_04: That's amazing.
- 3:45SPEAKER_10: I mean, I mean, that's you know, I don't know what they're using, like plutonium or kryptonite or what in there.
- 3:50SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
- 3:50SPEAKER_04: But it's pretty awesome.
- 3:52SPEAKER_04: So these so so these two standby batteries are all charged, because I charged all four of them.
- 3:57SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 3:57SPEAKER_04: Uh so they're all charged and ready to go.
- 3:59SPEAKER_04: So if we happen to stop recording uh because the battery died in the middle of the podcast, we'll be all right, and we can edit that and fix it.
- 4:06SPEAKER_04: But it's telling us it's a full battery.
- 4:09SPEAKER_04: So I I don't know.
- 4:11SPEAKER_10: The cot the the cost of those four batteries was equal to that big pack.
- 4:16SPEAKER_04: Really?
- 4:17SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 4:18SPEAKER_10: Well I So I mean, it's I mean, we're do you know, we're you know, we're saving money and we're doing something good for the planet.
- 4:26SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 4:26SPEAKER_04: So Thanks to Pale Blue.
- 4:28SPEAKER_10: Except, you know, when I go home, I take aerosol cans and I go outside and I go shh to offset that.
- 4:35SPEAKER_04: So we can't do too much good.
- 4:37SPEAKER_10: Yeah, I don't you know, I don't want to be a do-gooder.
- 4:39SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 4:40SPEAKER_10: You know what I mean?
- 4:41SPEAKER_10: Yeah, it's like so I don't want to be one of those guys.
- 4:45SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 4:45SPEAKER_10: Because I'm not gonna get an electric car ever.
- 4:48SPEAKER_04: Me either.
- 4:49SPEAKER_10: So you just it just it doesn't make any sense up here.
- 4:53SPEAKER_10: I mean I mean not I mean there's people up here that have electric cars, and I just don't get it.
- 4:57SPEAKER_10: I don't either because I don't know of any charging stations other than your house.
- 5:01SPEAKER_04: I don't uh No, there are charging stations actually in the Valley, I think.
- 5:05SPEAKER_04: Are there really?
- 5:05SPEAKER_04: I think there are charging stations in the Valley.
- 5:07SPEAKER_10: So if I live here in Prescottisle, I'm gonna go drive an hour and a half to get to the charging station.
- 5:14SPEAKER_04: I don't don't quote me on that, but I'm pretty sure that somewhere in the St.
- 5:18SPEAKER_04: John Valley there are a couple of charging stations.
- 5:20SPEAKER_04: I could be wrong.
- 5:22SPEAKER_04: But I don't even I don't see the point anyway, anywhere, because um not only do you have to charge the thing which runs up your electric bill.
- 5:33SPEAKER_09: Oh yeah.
- 5:34SPEAKER_04: Right?
- 5:35SPEAKER_04: Um if you run if if it runs out of a charge, you can't go anywhere.
- 5:41SPEAKER_10: Yeah, you just you're stuck.
- 5:42SPEAKER_10: You're stuck.
- 5:43SPEAKER_10: Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.
- 5:44SPEAKER_04: And there are people, and I've seen this as a joke, but it's true.
- 5:48SPEAKER_04: There are people that drive around with gas generators in their trunk.
- 5:52SPEAKER_10: Again, offsetting.
- 5:54SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 5:54SPEAKER_10: You know what I mean?
- 5:57SPEAKER_04: It makes no sense to me.
- 5:58SPEAKER_10: Look at me, I'm driving an electric car, I'm doing something good for it.
- 6:02SPEAKER_10: Oh, I need a charge all the way.
- 6:04SPEAKER_04: You know you know what is the way to go.
- 6:07SPEAKER_04: And and bicycle.
- 6:08SPEAKER_04: Well, bicycle, yes.
- 6:10SPEAKER_04: But I think they were on to something when they started with those hybrids.
- 6:15SPEAKER_10: Hybrid I get.
- 6:16SPEAKER_10: Yeah, because it has both.
- 6:18SPEAKER_04: It has both, and it runs on electric uh and doesn't the I think you can run on corn.
- 6:27SPEAKER_04: But doesn't the gas engine charge the electric as it's going?
- 6:31SPEAKER_10: In a hybrid?
- 6:32SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 6:32SPEAKER_10: Yeah, I think I think I don't I'm not exactly right.
- 6:34SPEAKER_10: That makes more sense.
- 6:35SPEAKER_10: That makes way more sense.
- 6:36SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 6:37SPEAKER_10: No, let's just go straight electric and just, you know, not put any charging stations on.
- 6:41SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 6:42SPEAKER_04: And there's a there's a there's video there's video somewhere on social media where they're interviewing this politician in front of like a federal building.
- 6:50SPEAKER_04: Or no, uh a state building, and they're talking about the the electric cars and blah, blah, blah.
- 6:56SPEAKER_04: And well, where are they getting well it's right on it's on our grid.
- 7:00SPEAKER_04: So so it's it's being charged by this building, this the state building.
- 7:04SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah, it's it's we're it's our grid.
- 7:06SPEAKER_04: So the taxpayer is paying for everyone's electric car.
- 7:10SPEAKER_10: Nice.
- 7:11SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 7:11SPEAKER_04: So it just uh makes so much sense.
- 7:14SPEAKER_04: Anyway.
- 7:14SPEAKER_10: Yeah, because it's free money.
- 7:16SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 7:16SPEAKER_10: Oh, wait a minute.
- 7:17SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 7:18SPEAKER_10: It's my money.
- 7:18SPEAKER_10: Whoa, wait, what?
- 7:21SPEAKER_04: Uh okay, so let's let's talk about music because that's you know kind of what we we get together here.
- 7:26SPEAKER_04: What we talk about music.
- 7:28SPEAKER_10: What's crazy talk?
- 7:31SPEAKER_10: You're so silly.
- 7:32SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 7:32SPEAKER_04: We're a silly fully ed.
- 7:34SPEAKER_04: I have to tell you a story.
- 7:35SPEAKER_04: It's um so I had my second chorus concert uh last week, and I just completely flaked out.
- 7:45SPEAKER_04: Just I just Like you didn't go?
- 7:47SPEAKER_04: No, I know I was out there fighting.
- 7:49SPEAKER_10: Where's Mr.
- 7:50SPEAKER_04: Boder?
- 7:50SPEAKER_10: Uh oh.
- 7:51SPEAKER_10: I was there.
- 7:52SPEAKER_10: You're sitting here watching TV.
- 7:56SPEAKER_04: I was there.
- 7:57SPEAKER_04: So I had it was it was um and and so I'm still learning, you know, my my job, and obviously.
- 8:03SPEAKER_04: And so some of the people that are involved in teaching my mi teaching me my job um withhold information from me, not on purpose, but they just forget to tell me.
- 8:15SPEAKER_04: Well, no, they they just forget to tell me things.
- 8:17SPEAKER_04: So forget to tell you.
- 8:19SPEAKER_04: Hey, do you know there's a concert tonight?
- 8:20SPEAKER_04: What?
- 8:21SPEAKER_04: So this whole time I'm thinking so we have a what's called we call it the Pops concert.
- 8:26SPEAKER_04: So this whole time I'm thinking Um that the middle school jazz band's gonna play, the high school jazz band's gonna play, the middle school band, high school band, and middle school chorus and high school chorus.
- 8:39SPEAKER_04: And we're gonna do like pop music.
- 8:41SPEAKER_04: Oh, okay.
- 8:42SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 8:42SPEAKER_04: So we learned pop music.
- 8:45SPEAKER_04: And uh come to find out it was just going to be the middle school jazz band, high school jazz band, and the two choruses.
- 8:52SPEAKER_04: And it was supposed to be my jazz choir, but we're not ready for that.
- 8:55SPEAKER_04: Uh, because we haven't had any any that rehearsal that we have, we meet on Thursdays.
- 8:59SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 8:59SPEAKER_04: And did you know that almost every snowstorm we've had this this winter has been on a Thursday?
- 9:04SPEAKER_10: Well, I know Marcel's going to school on a Saturday in June.
- 9:07SPEAKER_10: Are they really?
- 9:08SPEAKER_10: To make up time.
- 9:09SPEAKER_04: Really?
- 9:10SPEAKER_10: So you're probably next.
- 9:11SPEAKER_10: Probably.
- 9:12SPEAKER_04: So so uh come to find out, uh, one of my colleagues said, Oh, no, this is your concert.
- 9:20SPEAKER_04: I was like, excuse me?
- 9:22SPEAKER_04: This is a chorus concert.
- 9:24SPEAKER_04: We're just the jazz bands are just playing as an addition.
- 9:28SPEAKER_04: So this is a so the Pops concert is a choral concert.
- 9:34SPEAKER_04: So if you weren't So why is the jazz band then?
- 9:36SPEAKER_04: Right, well because well because they just we'll play.
- 9:39SPEAKER_04: Oh, okay, yeah, sure.
- 9:40SPEAKER_04: We'll play.
- 9:41SPEAKER_04: You should have them all scattered.
- 9:43SPEAKER_04: Stupid beep.
- 9:45SPEAKER_04: So then the high school jazz band didn't play because the conductor got COVID.
- 9:51SPEAKER_10: Oh yeah, I heard about that, yeah.
- 9:52SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 9:53SPEAKER_04: So it was just the middle school jazz band and then the middle school choir and then the high school choir.
- 9:59SPEAKER_04: So it was relatively short, it was almost an hour.
- 10:02SPEAKER_04: Um and so I'm sitting there and I'm just making sure, you know, everything's going, you know, everything's set up and ready to go, and the jazz band was set up.
- 10:12SPEAKER_04: And the changeover from the jazz band to the chorus, we just have to move the piano and we have to move some of the risers and blah, blah, blah, and fix the microphones and all this.
- 10:20SPEAKER_04: So this is, you know, I'll I'm good.
- 10:22SPEAKER_04: And um, so I flaked out on a couple things.
- 10:25SPEAKER_04: So um my middle school choir, uh, who are still very, very green, um, especially there's it's made up mostly of sixth graders, six, sixth and seventh graders.
- 10:38SPEAKER_04: And these are sixth graders that were, for lack of a better term, COVID sixth graders.
- 10:45SPEAKER_04: Okay, so they didn't get to do a lot of things.
- 10:48SPEAKER_04: They didn't and and and they're very immature.
- 10:54SPEAKER_04: Well, yeah, because they sat on a computer.
- 10:58SPEAKER_04: Right, and I so I attribute a lot of that to COVID, and it and uh some people use that as an excuse, but it's legitimate.
- 11:04SPEAKER_04: I mean, it's a legitimate thing.
- 11:05SPEAKER_04: And so they don't know how to do certain things, like and and and we had a chorus concert in the in December, our holiday concert, and they did well.
- 11:16SPEAKER_04: And I I walked them in and I had I had um the rehearsal before the concert, I had taken a picture of them standing up on the stage, and I wrote out, you know, who's standing where, and so that they could go line up in the hall where they need to be, and then just walk out onto the risers in order.
- 11:35SPEAKER_04: Well, I didn't do that this time because I just completely forgot.
- 11:39SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 11:40SPEAKER_04: And so you know Mr.
- 11:42SPEAKER_04: Moose, where where do we go?
- 11:43SPEAKER_04: What do you I said, just go in the hallway, line up the best you can.
- 11:47SPEAKER_04: You're gonna line up the way you do for a rehearsal.
- 11:51SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 11:53SPEAKER_04: Well a lot of these immature sixth graders wanted to stand next to their friends, which is in a different like some of their friends are sopranos and not altos and right?
- 12:07SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 12:08SPEAKER_04: So that's the first place I first uh, you know, way that I kind of flaked out.
- 12:13SPEAKER_04: The the second was I'm standing around, I'm I'm I'm making sure everybody's doing well, and I have to say things at the beginning because remember it's my concert, which I was just informed.
- 12:26SPEAKER_04: So I uh standing there and it's about ten minutes to seven, ten ten minutes before the show starts.
- 12:35SPEAKER_04: And I realize I forgot my music.
- 12:43SPEAKER_04: I didn't have my charts at all.
- 12:46SPEAKER_04: So I'm like, uh, and I turn to Jenna and I said, I forgot my music.
- 12:53SPEAKER_04: She's like, Do you need me to run somewhere?
- 12:55SPEAKER_04: I'm like, nope.
- 12:56SPEAKER_04: And then I so I go into the chorus room where the high school chorus is standing.
- 13:00SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 13:01SPEAKER_04: And I said to one of my students, I said, Can I see your folder?
- 13:04SPEAKER_04: And they're like, sure.
- 13:05SPEAKER_04: I took it, I said, I'll be right back.
- 13:07SPEAKER_04: I went down the hallway to the copier and I copied all the music that I need.
- 13:14SPEAKER_04: And I walk out and the principal's there, and she's like, Everything okay?
- 13:18SPEAKER_04: I was like, I forgot my music.
- 13:20SPEAKER_04: And she's like, Do you do you need anything?
- 13:23SPEAKER_04: I said, I said, no.
- 13:25SPEAKER_04: And she says, Of course not.
- 13:26SPEAKER_04: You're a professional.
- 13:27SPEAKER_01: I was like, I'm a professional.
- 13:29SPEAKER_01: I'm a professional.
- 13:30SPEAKER_10: Look at me.
- 13:32SPEAKER_10: Look at me go.
- 13:33SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 13:33SPEAKER_10: Forget all my music.
- 13:35SPEAKER_10: And I'm drunk.
- 13:37SPEAKER_04: So I walk in and I and and by this time the high school is sitting in the auditorium, and I go up and I give her back her folder.
- 13:44SPEAKER_04: I said, Thank you very much.
- 13:46SPEAKER_04: And Jenna comes up to me and she says, Seven o'clock on the nose.
- 13:50SPEAKER_04: I said, Thank you very much.
- 13:52SPEAKER_04: So I went up and I started introducing the jazz band.
- 13:56SPEAKER_04: Anyway, so the jazz band, the middle school jazz band, was amazing.
- 14:00SPEAKER_04: Really?
- 14:00SPEAKER_04: Sounded really, really good.
- 14:01SPEAKER_04: I was very impressed.
- 14:02SPEAKER_04: Good.
- 14:03SPEAKER_04: Uh so so um the the new uh band teacher in the middle school is doing a great job.
- 14:09SPEAKER_04: Um and then so my my middle schoolers, I told you how they lined up, you know, incorrectly.
- 14:15SPEAKER_04: They got up there and we did the two songs and they were fine.
- 14:19SPEAKER_04: Um and then at the end, so they they have to come off the risers, and it was a lot of just disjointed, and there was laughing, and one of them was like, you know, go! Pushed her, you know.
- 14:36SPEAKER_04: So this is what I'm talking about.
- 14:38SPEAKER_04: And then the high school comes up and the high school does uh does a great job, and it but it was it was good.
- 14:43SPEAKER_04: It was just it was my concert, and I didn't know it until like the last minute.
- 14:47SPEAKER_04: And so the spring concert uh in May is also my concert.
- 14:53SPEAKER_10: So why so why do you get two and everybody else gets one?
- 14:56SPEAKER_10: Well, they don't.
- 14:57SPEAKER_04: Um so the w the holiday concert, or the winter concert, I should say, is uh both bands and chorus.
- 15:05SPEAKER_04: Okay, so we did that.
- 15:06SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 15:06SPEAKER_04: That's why I was thinking the Pops concert would be the same thing.
- 15:09SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 15:09SPEAKER_04: So I have the Pops concert, which can include the jazz bands and the jazz choir, and I also have the spring concert, which can include the jazz choir, and if I want to have the jazz band play, I can, but I don't know.
- 15:23SPEAKER_04: Um they have something called Bandorama, which is where they get it's actually kind of cool, where they get the fifth grade band, the high school band, and the middle school band.
- 15:36SPEAKER_04: And they each play their concert in the gym, right?
- 15:41SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 15:42SPEAKER_04: And then at the end, one of the directors gets to stand up high on a you know, a pedestal and conduct all three bands at the same time on one song.
- 15:55SPEAKER_04: Interesting.
- 15:55SPEAKER_04: So it's kind of cool.
- 15:56SPEAKER_04: That's kind of cool.
- 15:57SPEAKER_04: And they you give they give awards, you know, for the seniors and things like that.
- 16:00SPEAKER_04: And so my spring concert, my spring choral concert, I will give awards to the seniors and so forth.
- 16:06SPEAKER_04: So it's it it kind of works out.
- 16:08SPEAKER_04: Um But I just was it was interesting.
- 16:12SPEAKER_10: It was an interesting uh Maybe it's a good thing you didn't know ahead of time.
- 16:15SPEAKER_04: I think it is you would have overthought it.
- 16:17SPEAKER_04: I think you're right.
- 16:18SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 16:18SPEAKER_04: So I do know that the one in May is is my concert, but that could just be the the the jazz choir, the middle school choir, and the high school choir.
- 16:28SPEAKER_04: That's that's all it'll be.
- 16:29SPEAKER_04: Plus I give my awards.
- 16:31SPEAKER_10: So I think I think that may be the way to go.
- 16:33SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I think so too.
- 16:34SPEAKER_10: Yeah, that will you know, less moving parts.

- 16:57SPEAKER_04: And we need to act like professionals.
- 16:59SPEAKER_04: And I said, that's my fault, because I didn't go over it, you know, and and your lineup was off because it was, you know, I took responsibility for it.

- 18:17SPEAKER_04: Yes.
- 18:17SPEAKER_04: Well, he hasn't heard from them.
- 18:19SPEAKER_04: He's reached out to them a couple times and they said, Well no, when we're ready, we'll reach out to you.
- 18:24SPEAKER_04: Right, because there's a possibility that he could be an intern for the Celtics.
- 18:27SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 18:27SPEAKER_04: He hasn't heard from them and he needs something in place.
- 18:30SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 18:31SPEAKER_10: So he called He can't graduate till he has something in place.
- 18:34SPEAKER_10: Yeah.

- 19:03SPEAKER_04: Well, we have talked to him, but we haven't made a decision yet.
- 19:06SPEAKER_04: He doesn't know if he wants to march.
- 19:09SPEAKER_10: Okay.
- 19:09SPEAKER_04: Because he's gonna be home, he would have to fly out to Michigan just to march and then come back and then come back.
- 19:16SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
- 19:17SPEAKER_04: Right?
- 19:17SPEAKER_10: It might be just easier just to get the you know, get it in the mail.

- 19:32SPEAKER_04: Well, she no, she's up here, but her grandparents are in New Hampshire.
- 19:36SPEAKER_10: So it's a it's a nice intersection.
- 19:39SPEAKER_04: You know what I mean?
- 19:40SPEAKER_04: It works out well.
- 19:41SPEAKER_04: Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
- 19:43SPEAKER_04: And I will tell you, I'm happy to have him closer.
- 19:45SPEAKER_04: Yeah, oh yeah.

- 19:48SPEAKER_04: Yeah, exactly.
- 19:49SPEAKER_04: Um so there's a chance that I might not miss that show.
- 19:54SPEAKER_04: Which one was it?
- 19:55SPEAKER_04: It was um um well, we were going down the 24th, so it would have been Mapleton Days.
- 20:00SPEAKER_04: Oh, right, right, right, right.

- 20:12SPEAKER_04: That's the first weekend of June.
- 20:13SPEAKER_04: Maybe I'm thinking of um maybe I'm thinking of July, where we have three.
- 20:20SPEAKER_04: Um so we have like you said, Milo.
- 20:24SPEAKER_01: That's oh I'm looking at the wrong thing here.
- 20:26SPEAKER_01: I just want to double check so I don't uh say.
- 20:29SPEAKER_01: I want to make sure I'm doing everything absolutely correct.
- 20:33SPEAKER_01: Absolutely.
- 20:33SPEAKER_01: So let's see if I Oh, I forgot my music.
- 20:36SPEAKER_01: Shut up.

- 22:12SPEAKER_04: Or Florida.
- 22:14SPEAKER_04: Take the kids.
- 22:15SPEAKER_04: Some of them anyway.
- 22:16SPEAKER_10: That's brilliant.
- 22:18SPEAKER_10: Let's go to the south in the hottest part of the year.
- 22:20SPEAKER_04: Well, maybe we won't go won't go to Florida.
- 22:22SPEAKER_04: Well, the see the thing, the reason we were gonna go to Florida is because my wife's uncle just bought a house down in Florida, so we would have a free place to stay.
- 22:29SPEAKER_09: Oh, well, that's uh but North Carolina.
- 22:33SPEAKER_04: Well, we would have.
- 22:35SPEAKER_04: Dude.
- 22:36SPEAKER_04: Probably but that's a brutal drive.
- 22:37SPEAKER_04: We're thinking North Carolina.
- 22:39SPEAKER_04: That's probably about nineteen.
- 22:41SPEAKER_04: That's probably about eighteen, nineteen hours.
- 22:42SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 22:42SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 22:43SPEAKER_04: But you know, her sister's down there.
- 22:45SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 22:47SPEAKER_04: Sure.
- 22:48SPEAKER_04: And figure it out.
- 22:48SPEAKER_04: But you know, that remains to be seen.
- 22:50SPEAKER_04: Gotcha.
- 22:51SPEAKER_04: So anyway, uh new music.
- 22:54SPEAKER_04: I want to talk about this because I haven't heard it yet.
- 22:57SPEAKER_04: You haven't heard it yet.
- 23:00SPEAKER_04: Uh I am having an issue with my internet.
- 23:02SPEAKER_04: Uh the kids have used up our internet uh for the month.
- 23:06SPEAKER_04: It doesn't renew until next weekend.

- 23:33SPEAKER_10: I don't think it's gonna be any of our theaters in July, but of course not.
- 23:36SPEAKER_10: But it would be cool.
- 23:36SPEAKER_10: Of course not.
- 23:37SPEAKER_10: Hey Dow, get on that, man.
- 23:38SPEAKER_04: Yeah, right.
- 23:39SPEAKER_04: Okay, so let's listen.
- 23:42SPEAKER_04: You wanna?
- 23:43SPEAKER_04: No, I'm excited.
- 23:44SPEAKER_04: I'm excited because I don't want to hear it.
- 23:45SPEAKER_04: I'm excited because you're hearing it for the first time.
- 23:47SPEAKER_04: So uh Italica Roll! See, hopefully the internet uh cooperates.
- 23:52SPEAKER_10: Okay.
- 23:52SPEAKER_04: 72 seasons from Italy.
- 23:55SPEAKER_04: Oh, it's eight and a half minutes.
- 23:57SPEAKER_10: That's it?
- 23:58SPEAKER_10: Yes.
- 24:00SPEAKER_10: Amateurs.
- 24:05SPEAKER_10: What is it, seven minutes of this and then the song?
- 24:08SPEAKER_10: Or what?
- 24:09SPEAKER_10: I hate that I really that really bugs me when they just do these weird, like, you know, nonsensical noises.
- 24:17SPEAKER_10: It's artistic.
- 24:18SPEAKER_10: I know it is, but it bothers me.
- 24:19SPEAKER_10: I want to just get into the I want to hear a guitar.
- 24:26SPEAKER_10: Thank you.
- 27:08SPEAKER_10: Like I said, I love it when they can go from the just thrack into like a slow like this is just a chunk.
- 27:22SPEAKER_03: Like a chunk.
- 27:24SPEAKER_04: But you're right, when they go into the verse, it's like a like a groove almost.
- 27:38SPEAKER_04: But I'm not kidding.
- 27:39SPEAKER_04: It's like it's like they have it's a cacophony of rifts.
- 27:43SPEAKER_04: I mean it's like they all sound similar, but they're not.
- 27:46SPEAKER_04: I mean, yeah.
- 27:47SPEAKER_04: I shouldn't say they're not.
- 27:48SPEAKER_04: They are similar, but they're different.
- 27:50SPEAKER_04: You know?
- 27:54SPEAKER_10: It's like taking the same rift and playing it a few different ways.
- 27:57SPEAKER_10: Right, yeah.
- 27:57SPEAKER_04: Which is makes it interesting.
- 27:59SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 27:59SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 28:04SPEAKER_10: Where is it?
- 28:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah, right here.
- 28:13SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 28:14SPEAKER_02: And then they'll go right back into thrash.
- 28:16SPEAKER_02: Right here.
- 28:17SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 28:21SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 28:22SPEAKER_03: No, it's that's kick butt, man.
- 28:24SPEAKER_10: I mean, that's Dude, this album's gonna be a killer.
- 28:26SPEAKER_10: I can't wait, man.
- 28:28SPEAKER_10: So excited.
- 28:30SPEAKER_04: Um, yeah.
- 28:32SPEAKER_04: You know, and I'm not as big a Metallica fan as you are, but that's good stuff.
- 28:37SPEAKER_10: Well, you you've you've come a long way.
- 28:38SPEAKER_04: I have.
- 28:39SPEAKER_04: You really have.
- 28:40SPEAKER_04: Yep, I have.
- 28:40SPEAKER_10: Because you never really liked Metallica.
- 28:42SPEAKER_04: Well, you know, I'm I'm not a I'm not a big fan of just it has its place, trust me.
- 28:48SPEAKER_04: Uh, but I'm not a big fan and and I wasn't a big fan of AC DC for a long time.
- 28:52SPEAKER_04: No, that's true.
- 28:53SPEAKER_04: Because it was just it because it was the same thing.
- 28:56SPEAKER_04: It is the same thing over and over and over again.
- 28:58SPEAKER_04: But you get to a point where you realize um the same thing from AC DC is better than half the things that are on the radio right now.
- 29:06SPEAKER_04: Because I mean, you know.
- 29:08SPEAKER_04: And the same thing with Metallica.
- 29:09SPEAKER_04: Metallica, um just I mean, you can't argue with the the talent.
- 29:15SPEAKER_04: I mean, it's a it's a different kind of music for me, but and it wasn't since I guess I liked Black.
- 29:22SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 29:24SPEAKER_04: Um and I went back and I liked one from from the from Justice for all.
- 29:31SPEAKER_04: Um and I actually liked a lot of the albums that that that fans didn't care for too much.
- 29:39SPEAKER_10: Oh, the load and reload.
- 29:40SPEAKER_04: The load and reload.
- 29:41SPEAKER_04: There's a few songs on there that I really liked.
- 29:45SPEAKER_04: That's a good one.
- 29:46SPEAKER_04: Um and but I I appreciate them, you know, and and you get when you want attitude, you know, when you want to just you're mad, or when you put them on, and it's it helps.
- 29:58SPEAKER_04: It really does.
- 29:58SPEAKER_04: It really does, man.
- 29:59SPEAKER_10: It really does help.
- 30:00SPEAKER_10: That's why I'm such a calm and docile person.
- 30:06SPEAKER_03: Hold on.
- 30:11SPEAKER_10: I'm very mellow.
- 30:14SPEAKER_10: Metallica.
- 30:19SPEAKER_04: Uh but yeah, no, that's that's kick butt.
- 30:21SPEAKER_04: 72 seasons.
- 30:22SPEAKER_10: You know, I I as much as I love Metallica though.
- 30:25SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 30:26SPEAKER_10: The through the never movie.
- 30:28SPEAKER_10: I haven't seen that.
- 30:31SPEAKER_10: The only part of it I like is when they're in concert.
- 30:35SPEAKER_10: Everything else doesn't make any sense.
- 30:37SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 30:38SPEAKER_10: With the kid with the roadie kid and his little adventure to get something.
- 30:42SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 30:44SPEAKER_10: I know it was in 3D.
- 30:45SPEAKER_10: It was supposed to be in 3D.
- 30:46SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 30:47SPEAKER_10: Okay.
- 30:48SPEAKER_10: It's not 3D on my TV.
- 30:49SPEAKER_10: So you know, I'm probably missing out.
- 30:51SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 30:52SPEAKER_10: But the storyline itself makes absolutely no sense.
- 30:55SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 30:56SPEAKER_10: But I really like it for the the concert.
- 31:00SPEAKER_10: The the concert parts, which are really awesome.
- 31:02SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 31:03SPEAKER_10: You know?
- 31:04SPEAKER_10: If they if they would just made it a concert video with I mean, they really didn't need the movie.
- 31:09SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 31:10SPEAKER_10: They could have just done the concert video.
- 31:11SPEAKER_04: You know what else they didn't need?
- 31:12SPEAKER_04: You know what else they didn't need?
- 31:14SPEAKER_04: Lars?
- 31:15SPEAKER_04: Lou Reed.
- 31:17SPEAKER_10: The L right.
- 31:19SPEAKER_04: Lulu.
- 31:20SPEAKER_04: They didn't need Lulu.
- 31:21SPEAKER_10: I know I I think that was just them being bored.
- 31:23SPEAKER_04: Nah, it had to be.
- 31:25SPEAKER_04: You know, I don't know.
- 31:27SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
- 31:27SPEAKER_04: The SM, they did two SMs.
- 31:30SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they did two.
- 31:30SPEAKER_04: Which were awesome.
- 31:31SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they're very good.
- 31:32SPEAKER_04: I love that stuff.
- 31:33SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's really good.
- 31:34SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 31:35SPEAKER_10: Um it's so funny to see people with like violins and cellos playing Enter Sandman.
- 31:40SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 31:40SPEAKER_10: You know, stuff like that.
- 31:42SPEAKER_10: It's really funny.
- 31:43SPEAKER_10: But you know, and If you take it very seriously, it's like, you know, you would like you because like the first one, you would have been, you would have been like, you know, some like, you know, they're used to doing like Beethoven and Bach and Vivaldi and stuff like that, and then we're playing with who?
- 31:56SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 31:56SPEAKER_04: Who?
- 31:57SPEAKER_04: But if you th like think about that song we just played, 72 Seasons, and all the riffs.
- 32:03SPEAKER_04: And if you put that with an orchestra, imagine how cool that would be.
- 32:08SPEAKER_10: Oh, it would be amazing.
- 32:10SPEAKER_10: I mean, when they put the algorithm the best one they did was when they did put the orchestra to metallic uh one.
- 32:16SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 32:17SPEAKER_04: Right, yeah, exactly.
- 32:18SPEAKER_04: Which fits perfectly.
- 32:19SPEAKER_04: That's what I'm talking about.
- 32:20SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 32:20SPEAKER_04: You know what I mean?
- 32:21SPEAKER_04: It was awesome.
- 32:22SPEAKER_04: And well, you know, uh and and I've talked we've talked about this before.
- 32:25SPEAKER_04: Um when Metallica was on Howard Stern and Elton John, because they did the uh Elton John did something, um collaboration.
- 32:36SPEAKER_04: Uh I think it w maybe it was a tribute album to Metallica, I don't know.
- 32:39SPEAKER_10: Well maybe it was that black uh the black and the Yeah, that's what it was.
- 32:42SPEAKER_04: Because he did nothing else matters.
- 32:44SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 32:44SPEAKER_04: And he was on there uh via satellite on the Howard Stern show and he was saying things, and we've talked about this.
- 32:51SPEAKER_04: He was saying what an amazing song it is, and it's one of the best songs he's ever heard.
- 32:57SPEAKER_04: And James Hetfield got all kind of clamored.
- 32:59SPEAKER_10: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 33:00SPEAKER_04: Yeah, he got emotional.
- 33:01SPEAKER_04: Um because it's LD Johnson.
- 33:03SPEAKER_04: Exactly.
- 33:04SPEAKER_04: But you think about it, the song nothing else matters.
- 33:08SPEAKER_04: If you t if you take, if you put some different instrumentation on, not that it's bad the way it is, it's awesome the way it is.
- 33:14SPEAKER_04: But I mean, that's that's a classic, iconic song.
- 33:20SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 33:21SPEAKER_04: You know, and there's and they have a lot of those.
- 33:23SPEAKER_10: Well, they they turned it into like a trilogy.
- 33:25SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 33:25SPEAKER_10: It was like Unforgiven 2 and there's Unforgiven Three, and they just kind of keep it going.
- 33:30SPEAKER_10: It's basically the same song, but just like little variations, you know?
- 33:33SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 33:34SPEAKER_10: But I mean, when that black and when that black album came out, and you heard nothing else matters, like ding ding-ning, you're like, what am I am I doing?
- 33:43SPEAKER_10: Metallica?
- 33:44SPEAKER_10: Yeah, right.
- 33:44SPEAKER_10: What is going on now?
- 33:45SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 33:46SPEAKER_10: And then it gets into it, you're like, whoa, I get it.
- 33:48SPEAKER_10: Because it because it kind of builds to that big crescendo before that solo.
- 33:52SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 33:52SPEAKER_10: That solo is amazing.
- 33:55SPEAKER_10: When when you watch them do it, if you ever watch Year and a Half in a Life of Metallica, the documentary, you watch the the evolution of that solo, you you watch Kirk Hammett work that solo out, take after take after take after take after take.
- 34:11SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 34:12SPEAKER_10: Until he nails that solo.
- 34:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 34:13SPEAKER_10: And you're like, you you watch it, you can you can like see it evolving, yeah.
- 34:18SPEAKER_10: And you can see where it's going after a while, and then you're all like, and then he nails it, and you're like, Whaaaah!
- 34:23SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 34:24SPEAKER_04: So And then in the movie, the documentary Some Kind of Monster, they argue about not having any guitar solos.
- 34:29SPEAKER_04: I remember Kirk Ham, it's like, you okay, fine, whatever.
- 34:32SPEAKER_04: But whatever.
- 34:34SPEAKER_10: But Kirk is probably the the reason that band is still together.
- 34:39SPEAKER_04: Yeah, he's the glue.
- 34:40SPEAKER_10: Yeah, he really is, man.
- 34:42SPEAKER_10: Because he's the chillest one of them all.
- 34:43SPEAKER_10: Yep.
- 34:44SPEAKER_10: Until I think until Rob came along.
- 34:46SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 34:46SPEAKER_10: I think Rob's now like both him and Rob are like, you know, chill boys, and then you got Lars and James, and you're just like, ah I don't know that I've ever asked you this.
- 34:54SPEAKER_04: Maybe I have.
- 34:56SPEAKER_04: Uh, because the black album was actually kind of polarizing for Metallica fans of the of old.
- 35:07SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 35:08SPEAKER_04: Uh were you one of those that that didn't like it at first?
- 35:11SPEAKER_10: Or you No, I did like it.
- 35:12SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 35:13SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 35:13SPEAKER_10: I I I I actually enjoyed it because it was still it was still it was more because it wasn't.
- 35:17SPEAKER_04: It was heavy.
- 35:18SPEAKER_10: It was heavy, but it wasn't, it wasn't like how how do you explain it?
- 35:24SPEAKER_10: It wasn't uh it wasn't it wasn't like Kill Em All.
- 35:28SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 35:28SPEAKER_10: When you listen to Kill Em All, it's just straight thrash.
- 35:31SPEAKER_04: Thrash.
- 35:31SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 35:31SPEAKER_10: You know what I mean?
- 35:32SPEAKER_10: Is there any thrash on Black?
- 35:34SPEAKER_10: Not really.
- 35:35SPEAKER_04: No, it's a good it's a groove album.
- 35:37SPEAKER_10: I mean it's it's more of a metal like banging devil horns to the sky kind of thing.
- 35:42SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 35:43SPEAKER_10: Um They didn't really get back to the thrash until they did uh The Day That Never Comes?
- 35:48SPEAKER_10: Well, until they did Death Mag Magnetic album.
- 35:50SPEAKER_04: That's when they kind of went to the Day That Never Comes is on Death Magic album.
- 35:53SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 35:53SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 35:54SPEAKER_10: Until they went back to that album.
- 35:55SPEAKER_10: Yeah, that's when they went back to Thrash because after the black album they did the load and reload and you know the SM and stuff like that.
- 36:02SPEAKER_10: Right, right, right.
- 36:03SPEAKER_10: So they kind of got away from the thrash, but then with Death Magnetic, they went back to the Thrash, and then everybody was just like, oh Metallica, you know.
- 36:10SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 36:10SPEAKER_04: So Yeah.
- 36:12SPEAKER_04: I'm excited.
- 36:12SPEAKER_04: I think it's gonna be fun.
- 36:13SPEAKER_04: It's gonna be a great album.
- 36:14SPEAKER_04: It's gonna be a great album.
- 36:15SPEAKER_04: I can't wait.
- 36:15SPEAKER_04: And I was thinking, uh, because we last episode we were talking about what's coming out.
- 36:19SPEAKER_04: So we have Metallica coming out April 14th.
- 36:22SPEAKER_04: I don't remember the dates, but we were talking about other bands that were coming out with albums.
- 36:26SPEAKER_04: Well, Winger's coming out on June.
- 36:28SPEAKER_04: And so is Extreme.
- 36:30SPEAKER_10: Yeah, June uh Extreme.
- 36:32SPEAKER_10: Revolution, oh Revolution Saints.
- 36:34SPEAKER_10: Didn't they come out with one this month?
- 36:36SPEAKER_10: Is it is it out?
- 36:37SPEAKER_10: Or in March?
- 36:38SPEAKER_10: Isn't their new one out?
- 36:40SPEAKER_10: Um I'm gonna find out.
- 36:41SPEAKER_10: I'm gonna find out.
- 36:42SPEAKER_10: I thought it was March.
- 36:43SPEAKER_04: That their new one was coming out.
- 36:45SPEAKER_04: Mammoth.
- 36:45SPEAKER_04: Um Wolf Van Hilden is coming out is in August.
- 36:49SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 36:50SPEAKER_04: Uh let's see.
- 36:51SPEAKER_04: I just want to see if this is uh because yeah, Revolution.
- 36:55SPEAKER_04: I think you're right.
- 36:55SPEAKER_04: I think Revolution.
- 36:56SPEAKER_10: I thought it I thought it came out like the 30th or 31st or something like that.
- 36:59SPEAKER_10: It just came out like last week and I think I missed it.
- 37:02SPEAKER_04: And it's uh let's see.
- 37:05SPEAKER_04: What's it called?
- 37:07SPEAKER_04: I have no idea.
- 37:09SPEAKER_04: So badly named because I have uh I have Revolution Saints, which is a title the title uh album, and then Light in the Light Light in the Dark, which is a second album, yeah, right?
- 37:27SPEAKER_04: Um But I have I have some songs.
- 37:34SPEAKER_04: Maybe it's not maybe maybe it's May.
- 37:37SPEAKER_04: Let me let me look let me click on this one.
- 37:40SPEAKER_04: Uh because there's one here called Need Each Other, which I think is a ballad.
- 37:44SPEAKER_04: So uh maybe this is a ballad, too.
- 37:46SPEAKER_04: Well, even the power title sounds like a here's one called When the Heartache is Gone.
- 37:52SPEAKER_04: Oh no, that one no, this one came out in uh November of 2019.
- 37:56SPEAKER_04: So that can't be it.
- 37:57SPEAKER_10: No one can't be out.
- 37:59SPEAKER_04: I guess the new one's not out yet.
- 38:02SPEAKER_04: Uh let me let me click on this one.
- 38:05SPEAKER_04: Uh because this one, Need Each Other, came out.
- 38:08SPEAKER_04: Oh no, here we go.
- 38:10SPEAKER_04: Here we go.
- 38:11SPEAKER_04: Um It says January 6, 2023.
- 38:16SPEAKER_04: So this is from the new album.
- 38:18SPEAKER_04: But the the album itself is not out yet.
- 38:21SPEAKER_04: Um this is Need Each Other.
- 38:24SPEAKER_04: I think I believe this must be a ballad.
- 38:25SPEAKER_04: Has to be a ballad.
- 38:29SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 38:30SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
- 38:32SPEAKER_04: So what I noticed about this is Dean Castanovo, who's the drummer, if you look at the videos, he's now the singer.
- 38:42SPEAKER_04: He's not drumming?
- 38:43SPEAKER_04: I don't think so.
- 38:44SPEAKER_04: I think there's someone behind the drum kit so that he can be the focal point of the band.
- 38:49SPEAKER_04: I mean he may be drumming on the album.
- 38:51SPEAKER_04: I'm sure he's oh I'm sure he is.
- 38:52SPEAKER_04: I'm sure he is.
- 38:53SPEAKER_10: It sounds like it sounds like Dean Geyser Normal.
- 38:56SPEAKER_04: So it's now Jeff Pilsen and Joel Hope.
- 38:59SPEAKER_04: April 21st.
- 39:00SPEAKER_04: April 21st.
- 39:01SPEAKER_10: Eagle Flight.
- 39:02SPEAKER_04: Yes, that's what it's called.
- 39:07SPEAKER_08: And all I see on my steps beyond me.
- 39:16SPEAKER_04: So the first two albums were Doug Altrich and Jack Blades, right?
- 39:21SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 39:22SPEAKER_04: Um so now this is the first album with Joel Holkstra and Jeff Pilsen.
- 39:27SPEAKER_04: And Jeff Pilson.
- 39:28SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 39:28SPEAKER_10: This will be interesting.
- 39:29SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 39:35SPEAKER_10: To be honest with you, it doesn't sound any different.
- 39:38SPEAKER_04: No, no, no.
- 39:39SPEAKER_04: I don't think so.
- 39:40SPEAKER_10: I mean, they're sticking to the revelation, you know, revolution saints sound.
- 39:44SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 39:45SPEAKER_10: You know?
- 39:46SPEAKER_04: Yeah, big choruses.
- 39:47SPEAKER_04: Yeah, big choruses.
- 39:48SPEAKER_10: Yeah, you know, yeah.
- 39:49SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 39:50SPEAKER_04: And I mean, Dean Castanova's got an awesome voice in here.
- 39:54SPEAKER_10: He really does, man.
- 39:55SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's that rasp, you know.
- 39:57SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 39:57SPEAKER_10: And he does get that cigarettes and whiskey voice.
- 40:00SPEAKER_10: Yeah, he does.
- 40:01SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 40:01SPEAKER_04: So that's that's exciting.
- 40:03SPEAKER_04: Um, the other thing we were gonna talk about, uh, real quick, is there's a picture that's been going around on social media, which I gotta think is photoshopped, but we're gonna we're gonna kind of find out for ourselves live here on the podcast.
- 40:22SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 40:22SPEAKER_04: Um, so where's the first place you saw it?
- 40:25SPEAKER_04: Was it was it it was a meme or something, right?
- 40:27SPEAKER_10: Yeah, it was a meme.
- 40:28SPEAKER_10: Somebody posted it and they were like, you know, take a look at this picture.
- 40:32SPEAKER_10: I didn't believe it until I looked it up myself.
- 40:34SPEAKER_04: So in Michael Jackson's Beat It video, yeah, when he's in the the pool hall, all the pool tables don't have any holes.
- 40:45SPEAKER_04: There's no there's no corner pocket, there's no side pocket, there's no holes in these pool tables.
- 40:52SPEAKER_10: And I can't believe I missed that.
- 40:54SPEAKER_10: If it's true, I can't believe I missed that.
- 40:56SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 40:56SPEAKER_10: Because I love that video.
- 40:58SPEAKER_04: Exactly.
- 40:58SPEAKER_04: You know?
- 40:58SPEAKER_04: Okay, so I have the video pulled up.
- 41:01SPEAKER_04: Oh, you know, okay.
- 41:02SPEAKER_04: And I have it right at the part where he's coming into the pool hall.
- 41:05SPEAKER_04: Oh, you do, okay, great.
- 41:06SPEAKER_04: So I'm gonna turn I'm gonna turn my computer this way.
- 41:09SPEAKER_10: Okay.
- 41:09SPEAKER_04: And we're gonna watch it live to see.
- 41:12SPEAKER_10: Okay, he's just coming into the pool hall.
- 41:14SPEAKER_04: He's just coming into the pool hall.
- 41:15SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 41:16SPEAKER_04: So just keep your eye on the pool tables.
- 41:22SPEAKER_10: I want one of those member only jackets.
- 41:24SPEAKER_04: I know.
- 41:27SPEAKER_04: Alfonso Ribero has one.
- 41:29SPEAKER_04: Oh, I'm sure he does.
- 41:33SPEAKER_06: It's true.
- 41:36SPEAKER_10: There's no holes.
- 41:38SPEAKER_10: Is it just that one or is it that one behind him too?
- 41:41SPEAKER_10: Yeah, there's no side pockets.
- 41:43SPEAKER_10: That is so funny.
- 41:45SPEAKER_10: Why would why would that be like that?
- 41:47SPEAKER_10: I don't know.
- 41:48SPEAKER_10: I don't.
- 41:48SPEAKER_10: It must have been like a spur of the moment.
- 41:50SPEAKER_10: It's like, where can we find, you know, nine pool tables?
- 41:53SPEAKER_10: Oh, we can't.
- 41:53SPEAKER_10: Let's just, you know, get regular tables, make them look like pool tables.
- 41:56SPEAKER_04: Or is it is it like a cover?
- 41:59SPEAKER_10: Like, like, like a or maybe they're just regular tables and they just put like a they made like a like a top.
- 42:05SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 42:06SPEAKER_10: To make it look like a pool table.
- 42:07SPEAKER_04: Or maybe they're pool tables that are being manufactured.
- 42:10SPEAKER_10: But aren't is it in the beginning of the video they're playing pool?
- 42:13SPEAKER_10: Aren't they playing pool?
- 42:14SPEAKER_04: Well, let me see.
- 42:15SPEAKER_04: So this so this is a guy walking into the dining room.
- 42:19SPEAKER_10: Yeah, this is the beginning.
- 42:20SPEAKER_10: I mean, this is before the big gang fight, right?
- 42:22SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 42:23SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 42:24SPEAKER_10: So walking into the You know what You know he used actual like bloods and Crips.
- 42:31SPEAKER_10: Yes, I did.
- 42:32SPEAKER_04: I did know that.
- 42:33SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 42:34SPEAKER_10: Well, except the guys that are dancing.
- 42:35SPEAKER_10: Except the dancers.
- 42:36SPEAKER_10: Yeah, they're they're not bloods and crips.
- 42:40SPEAKER_04: He has this thing about people coming out of manholes.
- 42:42SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I don't know what that is about.
- 42:44SPEAKER_04: So here we're they're in the pool hall right here.
- 42:46SPEAKER_04: So let's see.
- 42:47SPEAKER_04: No, look, there's no holy holes there either.
- 42:49SPEAKER_10: What the heck?
- 42:50SPEAKER_10: I thought they were playing pool.
- 42:52SPEAKER_04: They were just walking around with pool cues.
- 42:54SPEAKER_04: That's it.
- 42:55SPEAKER_04: That was all.
- 42:55SPEAKER_04: That's all you saw.
- 42:56SPEAKER_04: That's it, yeah.
- 42:58SPEAKER_04: And he's in the diner there.
- 43:00SPEAKER_04: Yeah, there's this is the the guy with the white jacket.
- 43:04SPEAKER_04: Um he's a choreographer.
- 43:07SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 43:07SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 43:14SPEAKER_04: Okay, now hold on.
- 43:16SPEAKER_04: F2.
- 43:18SPEAKER_04: So this is Steve Lukather on guitar.
- 43:21SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 43:22SPEAKER_04: And of course, we know we know who did the solo.
- 43:25SPEAKER_04: We know who did the solo.
- 43:33SPEAKER_04: Did you hear the story behind that, by the way?
- 43:36SPEAKER_04: Hold on.
- 43:36SPEAKER_03: Let's do it the solo first.
- 44:00SPEAKER_10: I mean, I don't know how anybody didn't know that was Eddie Van Halen.
- 44:02SPEAKER_10: Right, right.
- 44:03SPEAKER_10: I mean, because you if you knew anything about Van Halen, all you had to do was hear that solo and go, Oh, that's Eddie.
- 44:08SPEAKER_10: Yeah, exactly.
- 44:09SPEAKER_10: You know what I mean?
- 44:09SPEAKER_10: It's not like he's hiding it.
- 44:10SPEAKER_04: So the interesting story behind that is, and I only know this because I was watching an interview with Steve Lukuthur.
- 44:17SPEAKER_04: Um, and maybe you've heard this.
- 44:20SPEAKER_04: So Toto, basically, it was basically Toto.
- 44:23SPEAKER_04: Uh there was a couple other guys.
- 44:25SPEAKER_04: Actually, maybe it wasn't Toto.
- 44:27SPEAKER_04: I know it was uh Jeff Picaro, and I know it was Steve Lukuther from Toto.
- 44:30SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 44:31SPEAKER_04: That were on that song.
- 44:32SPEAKER_04: Oh, and I think almost I almost think Steve Picaro had something to do with it.
- 44:37SPEAKER_04: But anyway, they had the track done.
- 44:39SPEAKER_04: Um, and then they asked Eddie, could you come in and do the solo?
- 44:44SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 44:45SPEAKER_04: So he came in and he said, Oh, that's not gonna work.
- 44:50SPEAKER_04: We can you chop it here?
- 44:52SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah, I did hear this one.
- 44:54SPEAKER_04: Right?
- 44:54SPEAKER_04: Yeah, and and so basically he he r rearranged the the backing tracks of the song so that he could do his solo the way he thought he should do his solo.
- 45:06SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 45:07SPEAKER_04: And uh so they recorded.
- 45:12SPEAKER_04: Did they record over?
- 45:15SPEAKER_04: Something was messed up so that Steve Lucuther and a couple of the other guys had to come in and redo a whole part of the song.
- 45:24SPEAKER_10: Right, yeah.
- 45:24SPEAKER_04: And make it sound exactly like the rest of the song.
- 45:27SPEAKER_10: I can't remember what it was.
- 45:28SPEAKER_04: I can't remember what it was either, but there's a s there's an interview with Steve Lucuther.
- 45:31SPEAKER_04: All there's all kinds of interviews.
- 45:33SPEAKER_04: There's a ton of interviews.
- 45:36SPEAKER_04: But uh I think it was one one of the ones that he was um talking about um um a rec a recording studio.
- 45:45SPEAKER_04: I think that's the one of the the interviews.
- 45:47SPEAKER_04: So he was he was at a recording studio.
- 45:49SPEAKER_04: Anyway, uh really interesting story.
- 45:51SPEAKER_04: Um so well he's an interesting guy, actually.
- 45:53SPEAKER_04: He is an interesting guy, yeah.
- 45:54SPEAKER_01: Did you see that he's letting his hair go?
- 45:56SPEAKER_10: Yeah, it's like he's going gray.
- 45:57SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 45:58SPEAKER_04: Well, I mean he's he's white now.
- 45:59SPEAKER_10: Yeah, he's leaning into it.
- 46:01SPEAKER_04: Yeah, but if you notice, like look at this picture right here.
- 46:03SPEAKER_04: You can tell.
- 46:04SPEAKER_04: You can tell this dude colors his hair.
- 46:07SPEAKER_10: Oh, it's really obvious.
- 46:08SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 46:09SPEAKER_10: I mean, yeah.
- 46:10SPEAKER_10: He actually doesn't look bad.
- 46:11SPEAKER_10: No, no, no.
- 46:13SPEAKER_10: I think so too.
- 46:13SPEAKER_10: You know, so it's actually working for him.
- 46:15SPEAKER_04: I think so too.
- 46:16SPEAKER_10: I just think that's funny.
- 46:17SPEAKER_04: So yeah.
- 46:18SPEAKER_04: So we had to so we have uh looked at the video now.
- 46:21SPEAKER_04: We have watched it.
- 46:22SPEAKER_10: And we we can't confirm there are no holes in the pool table.
- 46:25SPEAKER_04: There are no holes in the pool table.
- 46:28SPEAKER_10: I just I just but I just don't understand why.
- 46:30SPEAKER_10: It hadn't been uh like uh it had been uh we need pool tables and we need them quick.
- 46:34SPEAKER_04: That's gotta be like in a pop-up video somehow, somewhere.
- 46:37SPEAKER_10: You know, or like there's gotta be a reason behind it.

- 47:02SPEAKER_04: Okay, explain it.
- 47:04SPEAKER_04: Explain what you're talking about.
- 47:05SPEAKER_10: So last week at We Had Practice, we talked about that already, but we were at KMH.
- 47:11SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 47:12SPEAKER_10: And I always go through the stacks because Chris gets new albums and stuff like that.
- 47:17SPEAKER_10: And I saw a Beatles album.
- 47:18SPEAKER_10: I was like, ooh, I don't have this one.
- 47:21SPEAKER_10: And then he had the adventures album for me with the Apache 60 65.
- 47:27SPEAKER_10: Yep.
- 47:28SPEAKER_10: Um So I'm looking at it and I'm like, huh, I've never seen this album before.
- 47:33SPEAKER_10: And the picture on it, you could tell they're very, very, very, very, very young.
- 47:37SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 47:37SPEAKER_10: I mean, this is even before like the bowl haircuts.
- 47:40SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 47:40SPEAKER_10: You know, the Beatle haircuts.
- 47:41SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 47:42SPEAKER_10: And I look at the you know, the distributor, it's VJ Records, and I'm and it clicked in my brain.
- 47:49SPEAKER_10: I was like, oh.
- 47:51SPEAKER_10: These are the guys that took a chance before the Beatles were popular in America to put out an album in America, and it did nothing.
- 48:00SPEAKER_10: I mean, it absolutely did nothing.
- 48:01SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 48:02SPEAKER_10: You know, nobody was into it because they hadn't come over here yet.
- 48:06SPEAKER_10: They weren't, you know, it was like a year, there was like a year gap there before VJ put out this album.
- 48:10SPEAKER_03: What songs are on it?
- 48:12SPEAKER_04: Oh, you wouldn't ask me that.
- 48:14SPEAKER_10: Well, I mean, can can you think it's uh it's uh it's all the the ones you think of, and she loves you and so it's basically what with the Beatles came became.
- 48:25SPEAKER_04: Gotcha.
- 48:25SPEAKER_10: So uh but it was put out by VJ Records because they were only ones that decided, well, we'll take a chance with these guys.
- 48:32SPEAKER_04: Have you looked at the record?
- 48:33SPEAKER_04: Is it in good shape?
- 48:34SPEAKER_10: It's in decent shape.
- 48:35SPEAKER_10: It's not in great shape, but it's in decent shape.
- 48:37SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 48:38SPEAKER_10: And so I was like, oh man, I w you know, so so I have Google Lens.
- 48:44SPEAKER_10: So you can take a picture of it and it searches the internet for you for it.
- 48:48SPEAKER_10: Well, it came up with a bun a couple of eBay entries.
- 48:53SPEAKER_10: Which are used.
- 48:54SPEAKER_10: They're used.
- 48:54SPEAKER_10: They're used albums.

- 48:59SPEAKER_10: The other is selling for$8,000.
- 49:02SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 49:02SPEAKER_10: I was like, holy freaking crap.
- 49:06SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 49:07SPEAKER_10: So in my mind, I'm not gonna do anything with it.
- 49:11SPEAKER_10: I'm gonna I wanna give it back to Chris and see if he can put it out there and maybe get more money out of it.
- 49:18SPEAKER_10: I think that's the only right thing to do.
- 49:20SPEAKER_10: To be honest with you.
- 49:21SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 49:22SPEAKER_10: I mean, he's gonna tell me no.
- 49:24SPEAKER_10: Of course he is.
- 49:24SPEAKER_10: But I'm still gonna try.
- 49:25SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 49:26SPEAKER_10: But I'm not gonna sell it.
- 49:28SPEAKER_10: I mean, this this is this is rare.

- 49:33SPEAKER_10: VJ Records?
- 49:33SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 49:34SPEAKER_10: And I mean, literally, I mean nobody would have known who these guys are.
- 49:39SPEAKER_04: What if what if you gave it back to him and he got more money for it from for it and gave you a piece of it?
- 49:47SPEAKER_10: No, I don't want anything for it.
- 49:48SPEAKER_04: You don't want anything for it?
- 49:49SPEAKER_04: No.

- 50:07SPEAKER_10: I was like, holy crap.
- 50:09SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 50:10SPEAKER_10: $4,000, another one,$8,000, and they're used.
- 50:14SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 50:15SPEAKER_04: Dude.
- 50:15SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 50:16SPEAKER_04: Yeah, you gotta say, you gotta offer it back to him.
- 50:18SPEAKER_10: I gotta offer back to him.
- 50:19SPEAKER_10: I can't.
- 50:19SPEAKER_10: I can't uh I can't, in all good conscience, keep that.
- 50:24SPEAKER_04: Yep, that makes sense.
- 50:24SPEAKER_04: So that makes sense.
- 50:25SPEAKER_10: But anyway, that's that's my big news.
- 50:27SPEAKER_04: All right, let's move on.
- 50:30SPEAKER_04: Whoa, that was really loud.
- 50:31SPEAKER_04: That was really loud.
- 50:32SPEAKER_04: Sorry about that.
- 50:35SPEAKER_04: Uh it is time for we're almost done.
- 50:36SPEAKER_04: We're almost done this too, right?
- 50:38SPEAKER_04: What?
- 50:38SPEAKER_04: Are we?
- 50:39SPEAKER_04: I think so.
- 50:40SPEAKER_04: Yeah, we must be.
- 50:41SPEAKER_04: I think we're on W?
- 50:42SPEAKER_04: W, are we?
- 50:43SPEAKER_04: Yeah, we're on W.
- 50:44SPEAKER_04: I believe.
- 50:45SPEAKER_10: Yes, we are.
- 50:46SPEAKER_04: We are on W.
- 50:47SPEAKER_04: So I am reading from the Country Legends Alphabet by Beck Feiner.
- 50:50SPEAKER_04: And W is definitely a country legend.
- 50:54SPEAKER_04: Any guesses?
- 50:55SPEAKER_10: Whalen Jennings.
- 50:56SPEAKER_04: It is Whalen Jennings!
- 50:58SPEAKER_10: My next guess is gonna be Wayne on a rider.
- 51:00SPEAKER_10: Or Judd.
- 51:01SPEAKER_10: Judd, yeah.
- 51:03SPEAKER_04: No, it is Whalen Jennings.
- 51:04SPEAKER_04: Whalen Jennings!
- 51:05SPEAKER_10: Oh, dude, that's weird.
- 51:06SPEAKER_10: What?
- 51:07SPEAKER_10: The pictures are similar.
- 51:08SPEAKER_10: Oh, wow.
- 51:13SPEAKER_04: She's she's a one-trick pony.
- 51:14SPEAKER_01: She's like, eh, that's W.
- 51:16SPEAKER_01: I'll just do his idea.
- 51:18SPEAKER_04: So W is for Wayland Jennings.
- 51:21SPEAKER_04: His flying W logo is shorthand for the country outlaw movement he helped create.
- 51:27SPEAKER_04: Bucking every national trend, he challenged countries' conventions.
- 51:31SPEAKER_04: Are you sure Hank done it this way?
- 51:33SPEAKER_04: He growled.
- 51:36SPEAKER_04: That was a weird way to end that one.
- 51:38SPEAKER_04: But that was Doesn't Van Halen have a flying logo too?
- 51:43SPEAKER_04: Um a flying logo?
- 51:45SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 51:45SPEAKER_04: Like like Whalen's Wings.
- 51:48SPEAKER_04: With wings, yeah.
- 51:48SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 51:49SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 51:49SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 51:50SPEAKER_04: Um but you know, he never He didn't start the Outlaw.
- 51:56SPEAKER_04: He didn't want to be called an Outlaw.
- 51:58SPEAKER_04: No.
- 51:59SPEAKER_04: But they he just ended up calling, you know, he ended up Well, he's even lucky to be here.
- 52:04SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that's true.
- 52:05SPEAKER_10: That's true, because he didn't he give up his seat or he gave up his seat on that plane that killed Buddy Holly, the big bopper and Richard.
- 52:10SPEAKER_04: Because he was in Buddy Holly's band.
- 52:12SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 52:12SPEAKER_04: Yeah, he was a bass player, wasn't he?
- 52:13SPEAKER_04: Uh bass player or guitar player.
- 52:15SPEAKER_04: I'm pretty sure he played bass for Buddy Holly.
- 52:17SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 52:17SPEAKER_04: Uh in the crickets.
- 52:19SPEAKER_04: Pretty sure that's what it was.
- 52:20SPEAKER_10: Something like that.
- 52:21SPEAKER_10: Or he played for Richie Vallon.
- 52:23SPEAKER_04: He played in he played the in the He was on that tour anyway.
- 52:25SPEAKER_04: He was on that tour, yeah.
- 52:27SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 52:27SPEAKER_10: So he he's even lucky to be alive.
- 52:29SPEAKER_04: But yeah, that's right.
- 52:30SPEAKER_04: He did.
- 52:30SPEAKER_04: He gave up his seat.
- 52:31SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 52:31SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 52:32SPEAKER_10: So.
- 52:33unknown: Alright.
- 52:34SPEAKER_04: He he isn't alive anymore, but Well, yeah.
- 52:37SPEAKER_10: But he you know, he would have missed him before.
- 52:40SPEAKER_10: Yes.
- 52:40SPEAKER_04: Exactly.
- 52:41SPEAKER_04: Gotcha.
- 52:41SPEAKER_10: Never would have heard a wailing.
- 52:42SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 52:43SPEAKER_04: Alright, so W for the Beatles.
- 52:46SPEAKER_10: Alright.
- 52:46SPEAKER_10: Well, it's a crying guitar, apparently.
- 52:49SPEAKER_10: There's like water, every other is waterlogged.
- 52:52SPEAKER_04: So it's gotta be While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
- 52:54SPEAKER_10: It is While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
- 52:56SPEAKER_10: Eric Clapton.
- 52:57SPEAKER_10: Well, he even looks like he kind of looks like Clapton.

- 53:01SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 53:02SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 53:02SPEAKER_10: That's even what it looks like.
- 53:03SPEAKER_10: Okay, but anyway.
- 53:05SPEAKER_10: W is for While My Guitar Gently Weeps, George Harrison's first great composition and one of the band's greatest rock songs.
- 53:12SPEAKER_10: This sprawling and heavy track is about humankind's potential for unconditional love.
- 53:19SPEAKER_10: Love there that's sleeping.
- 53:22SPEAKER_10: It's a theme that still rings true decades later.
- 53:27SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 53:29unknown: I think she was drunk.
- 53:30SPEAKER_04: I think she must have been.
- 53:32SPEAKER_04: She must have been.
- 53:34SPEAKER_10: Some of them have been decent, but this one wasn't very good.
- 53:37SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 53:38SPEAKER_10: I think she was just getting to the end of it and she was just like, I don't care.

- 1:01:26SPEAKER_10: Everybody kind of likes Michael Bolton a little bit.
- 1:01:28SPEAKER_10: I think that's a I mean his voice is kind of annoying after a while, but he's a good singer.
- 1:01:36SPEAKER_10: I give him credit for that.
- 1:01:37SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 1:01:38SPEAKER_10: Um, geez.

- 1:02:07SPEAKER_04: Maybe not.
- 1:02:08SPEAKER_04: This was uh this was an interesting album.
- 1:02:11SPEAKER_04: Uh and I'm glad I picked Jude Cole because he's actually been doing uh some interesting things online.
- 1:02:23SPEAKER_04: Um so anyway, before I get to that, let me tell you what album this is.
- 1:02:29SPEAKER_04: Um and you haven't been putting down what albums we've been doing, right?
- 1:02:32SPEAKER_04: No.
- 1:02:33SPEAKER_04: You've just been putting down.
- 1:02:34SPEAKER_10: Just putting down artists.
- 1:02:35SPEAKER_04: Okay, so I don't think we've done this album.
- 1:02:38SPEAKER_04: Um I've told my Jude Cole story, right?
- 1:02:44SPEAKER_04: Um the Yeah, we did it.
- 1:02:46SPEAKER_10: We did it a while ago, isn't it?

- 1:02:48SPEAKER_04: The birthday story, yeah.
- 1:02:49SPEAKER_04: Yeah, okay, that's what I thought.
- 1:02:50SPEAKER_04: So I'm not gonna do that again.
- 1:02:51SPEAKER_04: But uh let's see.
- 1:02:55SPEAKER_04: I just absolutely adore this guy's music.
- 1:03:00SPEAKER_04: This is the album that I picked.
- 1:03:03SPEAKER_04: Um I don't know why I act this way.
- 1:03:06SPEAKER_04: That's the name of the album.
- 1:03:08SPEAKER_04: And it's it's a line from one of the songs.
- 1:03:10SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 1:03:11SPEAKER_04: Um, so Jude Cole.
- 1:03:15SPEAKER_04: Uh might as well just kind of start from the beginning here.
- 1:03:19SPEAKER_04: Uh Jude Cole had this hit song in 19.
- 1:03:28SPEAKER_04: Well, the album came out in 1990.
- 1:03:30SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 1:03:30SPEAKER_04: Um, so this is called Baby It's Tonight.
- 1:03:34SPEAKER_04: You may recognize it.
- 1:03:35SPEAKER_04: It was a minor hit.
- 1:03:38SPEAKER_04: Um, so it's very pop and very pep pop rock, you know.
- 1:03:44SPEAKER_04: Very 80s, too.
- 1:03:45SPEAKER_04: He's um he's an amazing guitar player and singer.
- 1:03:50SPEAKER_04: He's known for his vocals, his background vocals, because he does all his own background vocals.
- 1:03:54SPEAKER_04: And it's very signature.
- 1:04:38SPEAKER_04: Okay, so here's this other test.
- 1:05:05SPEAKER_04: But you're right, very 80s.
- 1:05:07SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah, very 80s.
- 1:05:11SPEAKER_10: You know what I mean?
- 1:05:12SPEAKER_10: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:05:37SPEAKER_04: Remember that at all?
- 1:05:38SPEAKER_04: Nope.
- 1:05:38SPEAKER_04: No, okay.
- 1:05:40SPEAKER_04: Well, couple years later he came out with his second album.
- 1:05:44SPEAKER_04: Well, actually, technically it's his third album.
- 1:05:46SPEAKER_04: Uh the first.
- 1:05:47SPEAKER_10: Is that the one we're talking about?
- 1:05:48SPEAKER_04: Nope.
- 1:05:49SPEAKER_04: So this is the hit he had on the third album.
- 1:05:54SPEAKER_04: Called Start the Car.
- 1:05:56SPEAKER_10: Which album did you pick?
- 1:05:58SPEAKER_04: This is called I don't know why I guess what.
- 1:06:00SPEAKER_04: I'm just I'm just kind of going through the history of Jude Cole.
- 1:06:02SPEAKER_04: Oh.
- 1:06:03SPEAKER_04: Because this album is next.
- 1:06:07SPEAKER_04: Because there's a distinct difference between these albums and this one.
- 1:06:10SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 1:06:11SPEAKER_04: Oh, so you're setting I'm set I'm setting a story.
- 1:06:14SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 1:06:15SPEAKER_07: Just wanna grab you, baby.
- 1:06:18SPEAKER_07: Get out of this place.
- 1:06:24SPEAKER_07: I got no chance on making it.
- 1:06:26SPEAKER_07: Walking down.
- 1:06:33SPEAKER_07: Walking on it, talking about going down, down, down.
- 1:06:38SPEAKER_04: Listen to these bubbles.
- 1:06:54SPEAKER_04: Now there's there's a there's the female singer.
- 1:07:00SPEAKER_04: Canadian artist named Tass Jordan.
- 1:07:02SPEAKER_04: She's singing with him on this one.
- 1:07:03SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 1:07:03SPEAKER_04: There's another s there's a song on here that has both Jack Blades and uh Tommy Shaw from Damn Yankees.
- 1:07:08SPEAKER_04: Oh cool.
- 1:07:09SPEAKER_04: Singing Harmony.
- 1:07:10SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 1:07:10SPEAKER_04: Stay on Promised Land.
- 1:07:12SPEAKER_04: So anyway, that was from 1992.
- 1:07:15SPEAKER_04: So this album.
- 1:07:17SPEAKER_04: Um where is it?
- 1:07:19SPEAKER_04: Here, there it is.
- 1:07:21SPEAKER_04: A Marked Difference.
- 1:07:22SPEAKER_04: So when this album came out, I was like, oh cool, new one from Jude Cole.
- 1:07:25SPEAKER_04: I listened to it and I was like, this is really different, but it's awesome.
- 1:07:30SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 1:07:31SPEAKER_04: Um it's so hard for me because there are a couple of songs in here.
- 1:07:38SPEAKER_04: I'd like to play the whole song.
- 1:07:40SPEAKER_04: I can't.
- 1:07:41SPEAKER_04: I mean I could, but it wouldn't be, you know.
- 1:07:44SPEAKER_04: Um but the first song on the album is called Speed of Life.
- 1:07:51SPEAKER_04: And this is a largely acoustic album.
- 1:07:57SPEAKER_04: This has to be one of my favorite Jude Cole songs.
- 1:08:06SPEAKER_04: And his lyrics are so unique.
- 1:08:11SPEAKER_07: Like ghosts on open windows.
- 1:08:15SPEAKER_07: Curtains rise and fall.
- 1:08:24SPEAKER_07: At the dark end of the hall.
- 1:08:27SPEAKER_04: Okay, just let's listen to that for a second.
- 1:08:29SPEAKER_04: Like ghosts on open windows, the curtains rise and fall.
- 1:08:33SPEAKER_04: The past is a foreign country at the dark end of the hall.
- 1:08:40SPEAKER_07: The morning is an offering to the shelter of the day.
- 1:08:47SPEAKER_07: The violent common bury it away.
- 1:08:55SPEAKER_04: Just in case you didn't get that, the morning is an offering to the shelter of the day, but the violent come in and bury it away.
- 1:09:17SPEAKER_07: Slower than a slow dance.
- 1:09:19SPEAKER_04: Slower than a slow dance.
- 1:09:20SPEAKER_07: On a hot summer night.
- 1:09:22SPEAKER_04: On a hot summer night.
- 1:09:24SPEAKER_07: Faster than a skin breaks.
- 1:09:26SPEAKER_04: Faster than the skin breaks on the edge of a knife.
- 1:09:46SPEAKER_07: Questions begging answer.
- 1:09:49SPEAKER_07: Stars appear at name.
- 1:09:53SPEAKER_07: What's it mean to love somebody?
- 1:09:58SPEAKER_07: What's it mean to be bad?
- 1:10:04SPEAKER_07: I heard a little girl laughing.
- 1:10:12SPEAKER_07: Saw an old man dying.
- 1:10:15SPEAKER_07: Booming in the no the world turns to the ages.
- 1:10:22SPEAKER_07: Most peculiar.
- 1:10:40SPEAKER_04: See how different it is though?
- 1:10:41SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
- 1:10:42SPEAKER_04: I mean the the production is different.
- 1:10:43SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:10:45SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:11:07SPEAKER_04: So and the rest of the songs on here, I mean, they're just sonically different.
- 1:11:16SPEAKER_04: Like um.
- 1:11:20SPEAKER_04: So then there's something.
- 1:11:22SPEAKER_04: Well, there's an there's a song here called Believe in You.
- 1:11:24SPEAKER_04: I'm not gonna play that, but well, I'll play a bit a little bit of it.
- 1:11:40SPEAKER_07: I play guitar to make the rent, and you can make our family three.
- 1:11:49SPEAKER_07: I'm gonna make a million dollars, but a million dollars won't make me looking out on the stars tonight, thinking about this human zoo.
- 1:12:12SPEAKER_07: Screaming up, but who knows who believe in you.
- 1:12:19SPEAKER_04: It's almost like so with his first two albums, it's almost like he was chasing something.
- 1:12:26SPEAKER_04: Like he was like he was doing what he thought he was supposed to do to be a rock star or to be a music artist.
- 1:12:33SPEAKER_04: And with this album, he just said, I'm just gonna do what I want to do.
- 1:12:36SPEAKER_04: You know, um, because this stuff didn't make the radio.
- 1:12:39SPEAKER_04: But let me listen to this.
- 1:12:41SPEAKER_07: It's time to review life size.
- 1:12:48SPEAKER_07: Open your eyes.
- 1:12:50SPEAKER_07: You picked up everyone she ever spoke.
- 1:12:57SPEAKER_07: Your life's a joke.
- 1:13:04SPEAKER_03: All him.
- 1:13:05SPEAKER_07: Cause you're not dead.
- 1:13:09SPEAKER_04: Cause you're not dead, you're not dead.
- 1:13:12SPEAKER_04: In fact, you're all you've got.
- 1:13:14SPEAKER_04: So move if you're going.
- 1:13:16SPEAKER_07: Better run if you can.
- 1:13:20SPEAKER_10: That was like a 90-degree turn.
- 1:13:24SPEAKER_07: You gotta run with listen to that bass line.
- 1:13:26SPEAKER_07: While the moment is at hand, you better move if you're gone.
- 1:13:32SPEAKER_07: Better run with your right foot forward in the end Winds moan, clouds roll, shut the blinds, chain the door.
- 1:13:50SPEAKER_07: Fight the ghost in your head play then What's happened to you?
- 1:13:59SPEAKER_07: Wonderful you better move if you're going.
- 1:14:05SPEAKER_07: Run if you can't.
- 1:14:06SPEAKER_04: I just think it's it's such a unique album.
- 1:14:09SPEAKER_10: It's the song is unique.
- 1:14:10SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 1:14:11SPEAKER_10: Because it started out like a gospel.
- 1:14:13SPEAKER_10: Yeah, you know, and then all of a sudden it went R and B.
- 1:14:15SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 1:14:16SPEAKER_10: Like literally just like bang.
- 1:14:18SPEAKER_04: I'm gonna play one more for you.
- 1:14:19SPEAKER_04: Uh a piece of one.
- 1:14:20SPEAKER_04: Uh and this has his best friends with Kiefer Sutherland.
- 1:14:24unknown: Actually.
- 1:14:24SPEAKER_04: Who is it?
- 1:14:25SPEAKER_04: Yeah, right.
- 1:14:28SPEAKER_04: So Keith Kiefer made a guest appearance on this album.
- 1:14:31SPEAKER_10: Well, he plays stuff, guitar?
- 1:14:33SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:14:33SPEAKER_04: Well, actually, and they and they co-own the recording studio together.
- 1:14:36SPEAKER_04: Oh, they do?
- 1:14:37SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:14:37SPEAKER_04: Uh Ironworks, I think.
- 1:14:39SPEAKER_04: Ironworks is recorded.
- 1:14:40SPEAKER_04: And they have a r they had a record label.
- 1:14:42SPEAKER_04: I'm not sure if they still do or not.
- 1:14:43SPEAKER_04: Um so this song is about um it's a it's a it's a tale of a husband and wife.
- 1:14:56SPEAKER_04: Well, you know, I'm not gonna tell you the story because I'll just let you hear a little bit, but it's it's fiction, but it's a reality in in all too all too many ways.
- 1:15:07SPEAKER_04: It's true fiction.
- 1:15:08SPEAKER_04: It's true fiction.
- 1:15:10SPEAKER_04: Um but it's a very poignant song, and it's called Joe.
- 1:15:14SPEAKER_04: Um so and again, the instrumentation is just so unique to me.
- 1:15:34SPEAKER_07: I go to church on Sunday morning.
- 1:15:37SPEAKER_02: I can hear a creeper there.
- 1:15:38SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 1:15:39SPEAKER_07: Come home and beat my wife.
- 1:15:45SPEAKER_07: And you know me.
- 1:15:48SPEAKER_07: I've lived here all of my life.
- 1:15:57SPEAKER_07: Got this pain I cannot speak of.
- 1:16:01SPEAKER_07: I'm not so bad as people say.
- 1:16:06SPEAKER_07: Got two kids who look like angels, but sometimes sometimes I wish they'd fly away.
- 1:16:16SPEAKER_07: Wow, that's a good life, right?
- 1:16:17SPEAKER_07: Yeah, I mean it's it's life is good.

- 1:17:17SPEAKER_07: The blood of murderers and millionaires is pound, pound.
- 1:17:24SPEAKER_07: Pound through my rain.
- 1:17:30SPEAKER_07: Life is good, you know lucky.
- 1:17:34SPEAKER_03: But how many people are are living this life?

- 1:17:59SPEAKER_07: Kennedy was in the White House.
- 1:18:03SPEAKER_07: We were children in the sun Smoking candy cigarettes, cowboys and be gone Some nights I go down to the basement with thoughts I do not understand.
- 1:18:29SPEAKER_07: Purple heart and a loaded pistol.

- 1:19:46SPEAKER_04: He doesn't care if the he just puts them out.
- 1:19:49SPEAKER_04: And people can download them.
- 1:19:50SPEAKER_04: Uh I don't know that he sells them.
- 1:19:53SPEAKER_04: Um but he just does it to do it.
- 1:19:56SPEAKER_04: He says sincere thanks to all who've liked, subscribed, commented, and most of all, listened to some of the new music.
- 1:20:02SPEAKER_04: My agenda is just to give these songs a life, aside from stream sites.
- 1:20:08SPEAKER_04: Beyond that, it's beyond my control.
- 1:20:10SPEAKER_04: As a manager, I could sell other people's music, but it's very hard to talk about my own.
- 1:20:16SPEAKER_04: To all who've asked, touring isn't an option with some of the ear damage.
- 1:20:22SPEAKER_04: So writing and making records is it.
- 1:20:24SPEAKER_04: Thank you again.
- 1:20:25SPEAKER_04: Much more to come.
- 1:20:26SPEAKER_04: And he's got so he's got a SoundCloud uh account.
- 1:20:30SPEAKER_04: But he just released this one called And it's just so his point of view is so weird.
- 1:20:42SPEAKER_04: This one is a limited seduction.
- 1:20:58SPEAKER_04: Well, it's it's in the slow legislative.
- 1:21:02SPEAKER_04: Um this is like his latest.
- 1:21:06SPEAKER_03: Right?
- 1:21:07SPEAKER_03: He's all over the place.
- 1:21:11SPEAKER_01: It's yacht rock.
- 1:21:12SPEAKER_01: He's got it, he's got hashtag yacht rock.
- 1:21:23SPEAKER_07: It's in the X, it's always sex.
- 1:21:37SPEAKER_01: It's almost tongue in cheek.
- 1:21:39SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no, yeah.
- 1:21:41SPEAKER_01: It's good though, but it's awesome.
- 1:22:01SPEAKER_07: Baby among the spell.
- 1:22:14SPEAKER_07: The broken smoke ring is a wall.
- 1:22:20SPEAKER_04: I love this guy's music.
- 1:22:22SPEAKER_04: Uh I wish I knew who that was singing.
- 1:22:28SPEAKER_04: I'm sure he says it somewhere, but so I would I would suggest get as much Jude Cole as you can.
- 1:22:34SPEAKER_04: Um go follow him on SoundCloud, follow him on Facebook, or whatever you could do, because you're in for a real treat.
- 1:22:41SPEAKER_04: Because he's he puts out new music uh every once in a while just just to put it out.
- 1:22:46SPEAKER_04: And it's it's above and beyond anything that's on the radio.
- 1:22:52SPEAKER_04: I think.
- 1:22:53SPEAKER_04: Anyway, I'm a huge, huge fan.
- 1:22:55SPEAKER_04: Um named my kid after him.
- 1:22:57SPEAKER_04: Don't tell my wife that.
- 1:23:00SPEAKER_04: Um but yeah.
- 1:23:01SPEAKER_04: Too late.
- 1:23:02SPEAKER_04: But yeah, Jude Cole.
- 1:23:04SPEAKER_04: Uh highly, highly, highly underrated.
- 1:23:06SPEAKER_04: And he's actually um I don't know if he still is, because I haven't heard them do anything lately, but he's, you know, the band Lifehouse.
- 1:23:14SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 1:23:15SPEAKER_04: He was he's their manager.
- 1:23:16SPEAKER_10: Oh yes.
- 1:23:17SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:23:17SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 1:23:17SPEAKER_04: I've heard them forever.
- 1:23:19SPEAKER_04: I know.
- 1:23:19SPEAKER_04: I I almost think that they broke up, but I could be wrong.
- 1:23:22SPEAKER_04: I know the Well, they only had really that one song.
- 1:23:25SPEAKER_04: Well, they had a few.
- 1:23:28SPEAKER_10: Waiting on a Moment or something.
- 1:23:30SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 1:23:30SPEAKER_04: Hanging on a moment.
- 1:23:31SPEAKER_04: Hanging on a Moment, yeah.
- 1:23:32SPEAKER_04: No, they had they had um they had several albums.
- 1:23:36SPEAKER_04: And uh and they had several big, big, big hits, and he had a hand in a lot on a lot of them.
- 1:23:43SPEAKER_04: Um but yeah, and I almost think the guy's name is something Wade.
- 1:23:50SPEAKER_04: And I almost think he's on his own now.
- 1:23:56SPEAKER_10: You know what I mean.
- 1:23:57SPEAKER_04: Something Jason Wade, I think.
- 1:23:59SPEAKER_04: Jason Wade, does that sound right?
- 1:24:01SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:24:03SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 1:24:05SPEAKER_04: I think he's uh I think he's doing stuff on his own now.
- 1:24:07SPEAKER_04: I don't think I'm not sure Lifehouse is around or unless if I could be wrong.
- 1:24:12SPEAKER_10: I have no idea.
- 1:24:14SPEAKER_04: Nope, neither, but Jude Cole go and get you thumb.
- 1:24:20SPEAKER_10: I think the only music I remember from 90 is Steve I's Passion and Warfare album.
- 1:24:26SPEAKER_04: Oh wow.
- 1:24:27SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I remember that is that the one with the attitude song on song on it?
- 1:24:31SPEAKER_04: Not the attitude.
- 1:24:33SPEAKER_04: Uh the audience is listening.
- 1:24:34SPEAKER_10: Yeah, that's that's the first track.
- 1:24:36SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that's the first track.
- 1:24:36SPEAKER_04: The audience is listening.
- 1:24:37SPEAKER_10: Well, uh, because I had that album stuck in my head for three months.
- 1:24:40SPEAKER_10: Because it was the only music I heard.
- 1:24:42SPEAKER_04: Oh, that's because you were yeah, you were in a bootcamp.
- 1:24:44SPEAKER_04: Yeah, you were you were in boot camp.
- 1:24:46SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:24:46SPEAKER_10: It was the last album I heard before I left.
- 1:24:49SPEAKER_10: And of course you don't have any music for three months.
- 1:24:52SPEAKER_10: So it was stuck in my head for three months.
- 1:24:54SPEAKER_04: I don't know if I can handle that.
- 1:24:55SPEAKER_10: It was crazy.
- 1:24:57SPEAKER_10: But I remember before I left I had Recruit Liberty and I went and bought the album at the house or at the PX.
- 1:25:02SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:25:03SPEAKER_10: And I listened to it on the website.
- 1:25:04SPEAKER_10: Which album?
- 1:25:05SPEAKER_10: Passion and Warfare.
- 1:25:06SPEAKER_10: Oh, Passion and Warfare.
- 1:25:06SPEAKER_10: Okay.
- 1:25:07SPEAKER_10: Because I borrowed it from my cousin Steve.
- 1:25:08SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 1:25:09SPEAKER_10: I borrowed his copy and I gave it back to him before I left, and then like I said, it was it was the only thing that was stuck in my head for three months.
- 1:25:16SPEAKER_10: Literally three months.
- 1:25:18SPEAKER_10: That's all I heard in my head.
- 1:25:20SPEAKER_10: I didn't hear any other music.
- 1:25:22SPEAKER_04: That's crazy.
- 1:25:22SPEAKER_04: So that's crazy.
- 1:25:23SPEAKER_04: That's the only music I remember from.
- 1:25:25SPEAKER_04: Can you listen to that today?
- 1:25:26SPEAKER_10: Oh yeah, I love it.
- 1:25:27SPEAKER_10: I still love it.
- 1:25:27SPEAKER_10: It's still one of my favorite albums.
- 1:25:29SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:25:29SPEAKER_10: You know, so every time, but it you know, it takes you to a different place.
- 1:25:35SPEAKER_10: I don't know.
- 1:25:35SPEAKER_10: This is weird.
- 1:25:36SPEAKER_10: I don't know when you mentioned that first you go down, I was like, that's all I can think of.
- 1:25:40SPEAKER_04: So yeah, because you would yeah, because you wouldn't have heard it if you were that it was 1990.
- 1:25:44SPEAKER_10: You were always like, you were talking about you you remember this?
- 1:25:47SPEAKER_10: Nope.
- 1:25:48SPEAKER_10: Yeah, it wasn't Steve I, I don't remember it.
- 1:25:50SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:25:51SPEAKER_04: No, those two songs were all over the radio at that time.
