• 1:51
  Speaker 4: which I've been telling you to a lot of the
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: people wanting to know. When Man World, we would always
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: record more music than we had then then we needed.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: So when we went into Phase one studios in Toronto
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: to record Hell to England, we recorded a lot of
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: extra tracks like we did during Battle Hands and every
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: every time we got to a studio, because we would
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: think we might never have the opportunity again to be
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: in another studio like this, so as long as the
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: tapes were rolling, we recorded. So we we recorded I
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: think seven.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: Songs, a lot of extra songs, and then because we
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: thought that something was gonna happen if we would get signed,
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: so then all of a sudden, we got this interest
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: from ten Records DMI in UK and.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Next thing we know, we got signed to ten Records
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: em I. But then we needed more songs. We needed
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: for a release, We needed more tunes. So what we
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: did was we we went into the uh.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: The Virgin it's called the Manor Manora Studio, which was
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: William the Conqueror or something lunch and it was unbelievable,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, and it was redone into a studio to
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: a really beautiful studio and we stayed, I stayed in
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: the stateroom where William the Conqueror I mean, and once
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: I mean all the yeah, and it was like you
• 3:26

• 3:44
  Speaker 3: and we had wonderful people there and great studio and
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: it was like when you think, when you think about
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: something like that, the excesses of what it what it
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: could be.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: That's how it was.

  Speaker 1: piece of advice during your manner war era, what would
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: it be and why?
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: Uh my, my? My advice would have been to be
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: harder on Joey, hard harder on my partner, not fucking
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: you know, not just just just insisting I will. I
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: insisted on doing things a lot different, you know.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: You know, because I was the kind of guy that
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: I you know, we were we were fifty to fifty
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: partners in the band, and it was like when you know,
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: I was like, I don't want to.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Fight with this motherfucker. I don't want to fight. I
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: don't want to I don't want you know, I just
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: don't have any patience for him, you know, I don't
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: want to do it, you know, it's like, you know,
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: it was like, you know, sometimes I like, you know
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: a lot of people that's not worth it. I would
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: I should have been different.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: I should have I should have been a lot harder
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: on him. That's fair enough, because because I was a
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: fifty we were partners, That's right.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Sometimes Yeah, like I guess, do you wish you had
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: put your foot down more and not been so dismissive
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: of the whole thing?
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: And just you know, when when I when I heard
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: something that was embarrassing or I saw an embarrassing picture,
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: I said, you got to take that fucking down, take
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: that fucking picture down. I don't want to be you know,
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: I don't want to be displayed like that, or you know,
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: I don't want to be known for that.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: I don't want to you know, you know. And it
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: was like, you know, a lot of that stuff, you know,
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: And I just at one point, I just fucking threw
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: my hands up and I said, yeah, well.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: You know what, sometimes things happen for a reason, and
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: you're where you are today and you get to tour
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: with RTB, Like, yeah, if that's something positive you can
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: take away from it.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: It is positive. But but you know what I should
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: have been. I should have been a little more firm
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: with him. I really should have been.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And how has your approach to playing guitar change
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: since recording Sign of the Hammer back in eighty four.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: You know what, I've been playing guitar for so it
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: really hasn't a had. It doesn't change, you know. I
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: am a simple blues guitar player and and and that's
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: what I am. And when I when I go to pick,
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: when I picked the guitar up, the first thing I'm
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: playing is you know, blues legs and you know, and
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: then then I go through my fucking warm up and
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: I you know, I do. But basically, deep down in heart,
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: deep down in my heart, I'm bb King and Albert
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: King and Freddie King's son.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah we did. And I heard you started on violin
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: I did. I did, actually I did. It was actually
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: piano and piano, and then I couldn't take it anymore.
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: And because I wanted to be outside being a knucklehead, yeah,
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: which I shouldn't have been. And then when I got
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: to junior school, middle school, it was you know, violin
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: for the orchestra, and I moved up really quick from
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: from the back of the orchestra to the front of
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: the orchestra in about three weeks. And then my teacher said,
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: you know your your musical optitude.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Is off the charts. Wow, they told me that. So
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: I said, yeah, I know, I had already taken the test.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: I knew it.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: And then you went straight to guitar, obviously.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: Taking the guitar, and then you know, at one summer
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: it was amazing. One summer that I was it was
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: like the albums. The three albums that really destroyed me
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: was Jimmy Hendricks or Are you Experienced Cream?
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: Israeli Gears and the first led Zeppelin record. So I
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: had those three records suggest state in me that whole summer.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Then I was up there working at the camp being
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: a dishboy. And then by the end of that summer
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: I was a different person. I was a different guitar
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: player when I went home.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Gee, it's funny because I can hear a lot of
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: led Zep in man or War as well.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Were they some of the inspirations for you guys?
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Of course, Well that's great to hear.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: What about nowadays? Is there any new bands.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: That you really enjoy, really like that are inspirations for
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: you not much.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: I'm sure they're out there. I'm not going to be
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: like a dickhead and say there's no new band. I'm
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: sure there are plenty of great new bands out there.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: I just haven't had that. I don't.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: I don't have the wherewithal well I do. If I
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: wanted to listen to new bands, I could, but I don't. Yeah,
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: and I'm not saying that I don't, but I just don't.
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: I'm sure they're out there, but I don't know. I
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: just don't have any patience for the new music.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: You know, do you know what?
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: It's actually pretty common A lot of people I speak to,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: They're like, I just stick with the classics, And I
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: don't blame you.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: You know, why are you trying to tell me that
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: there's a band that could put out a better record,
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: a better live record than the Who's the Who Live?
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: It leads.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: No pasting point.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: No, you can't, it's not it hasn't been done, you know.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Or Or are you trying to tell me a band
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: that can put out more of a you know, something
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: better than ISRAELI gives more artistic than that, or more
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: brutal than Hendrick's.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: You know, I don't think so.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: No, No, I think you're right.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Sorry, you're offering VIP meet and greets on this toour
• 12:47

• 13:02
  Speaker 3: been I've signed some interesting spaces.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Oh jeez.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: And many fans say Man of War's music as a
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: form of mythology. Were there any specific mythological or literary
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: influences behind Sign of the Hammer that you personally connected to.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: That's an amazing question, great question, thank you. Man of
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: War was extremely influenced by Richard waer mm and I
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: mean it's being really influenced by Wagner and all those
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: symphonies and all those movements talking about the gods and
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: Valhalla all that. We took that pretty seriously. We did.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: We took it seriously, and people looked at us like
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: we're a bunch of assholes. They go, okay, all right, whatever,
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: that's okay, all right, okay, a bunch of you know,
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: suppose he was what are you in the X City punk?
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: I go, yeah, but this is this is something different.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: I go, you have to understanding. You have to stiff
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: yourself into that situation, you know, and we were like
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: extremely influenced by Vogen.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, it's so cool. It's really is.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: I think you guys were like one of the sort
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: of first pioneers to do the tap into that fantasy
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: sort of you know, talking about swords and everything, and
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: it is really.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: Cool, dimister Sanger and Valkyrie and just a lot of stuff,
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: and was loved it, you know.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, wicked And looking back, was there a moment when
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: you realized your work with Manner War was going to
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: become iconic or did it take years to fully say
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: that legacy?
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: You know, I knew the band was was. I knew
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: that battle Hands started something. Yeah, uh, and I knew
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: it was. It wasn't for everybody, and it still isn't.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: But I mean I think that battle Ham's just created this.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 15:11
