- 3:17how was your week mr
- 3:18SPEAKER_02: aiken what what what eventful things happened in your world
- 3:22nothing nothing at all just work straight through just non-stop
- 3:28working every
- 3:29single day building websites building social media platforms
- 3:34building web stores
- 3:35SPEAKER_02: all of a sudden i'm busy again which is good i'm not complaining but
- 3:40but you know i i just the the lone thing that i did of any
- 3:45interest at all was
- 3:46based on your recommendation i went and i watched the eddie
- 3:50murphy documentary okay
- 3:52that's the only thing that i did worth a this whole week and
- 3:56any thoughts um
- 4:00SPEAKER_02: I thought,
- 4:00SPEAKER_02: A,
- 4:02SPEAKER_02: I enjoyed it,
- 4:03SPEAKER_02: and B,
- 4:03Eddie Murphy is right there with probably Kinison for me at the
- 4:08very tippy top of
- 4:10SPEAKER_02: the ladder.
- 4:12SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 4:13SPEAKER_02: That said...
- 4:15I thought that they let the movie star have a lot of leverage
- 4:20on the fact that his
- 4:21SPEAKER_02: last 30 years were bad.
- 4:24SPEAKER_02: They kept saying things about,
- 4:27SPEAKER_02: oh,
- 4:27SPEAKER_02: I love the way that you opened the door for black people with Norbit.
- 4:31SPEAKER_02: No, Norbit was terrible.
- 4:36SPEAKER_02: Vampire in Brooklyn was terrible.
- 4:40SPEAKER_02: Bowfinger was terrible.
- 4:42SPEAKER_02: And they kept saying,
- 4:44SPEAKER_02: well,
- 4:44SPEAKER_02: this movie showed that Eddie opened the door for black men to do this.
- 4:50SPEAKER_02: No, it didn't.
- 4:51SPEAKER_02: No, it did not.
- 4:53SPEAKER_02: First of all,
- 4:54SPEAKER_02: Richard Pryor,
- 4:55SPEAKER_02: and they even said it in the movie,
- 4:57SPEAKER_02: Richard Pryor had a whole career of movies before.
- 4:59SPEAKER_02: He did.
- 5:01SPEAKER_02: With, what's his name, Gene Wilder.
- 5:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, Gene Wilder.
- 5:04SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 5:05SPEAKER_02: So,
- 5:06SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 5:06SPEAKER_02: Richard Pryor opened all those doors,
- 5:09SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 5:10and they were just making excuses to try and hide the fact that
- 5:13these movies were
- 5:14SPEAKER_02: bad.
- 5:16SPEAKER_02: They were just bad.
- 5:17SPEAKER_02: But that all being said,
- 5:18it was kind of weird listening to him talk about how he was in
- 5:22that big empty
- 5:23SPEAKER_02: cavern of a house after his divorce,
- 5:26SPEAKER_02: wasn't it?
- 5:27SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 5:28SPEAKER_02: It was like, yeah, I feel real bad for you, Ed.
- 5:31SPEAKER_02: He's closing a silo roof on his, oh, it's cold in here.
- 5:37SPEAKER_02: I better close the roof.
- 5:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 5:40has this this thing that probably cost half a million dollars
- 5:43to put in his house
- 5:45right you know and he's like oh you know this was a very empty
- 5:49cold place no it
- 5:50SPEAKER_02: wasn't it really wasn't it was a 150 million dollar mansion
- 5:55SPEAKER_02: It's a gorgeous place, no matter who's in it.
- 5:57SPEAKER_02: Stop it.
- 6:00SPEAKER_02: But other than that, I did enjoy the documentary.
- 6:04SPEAKER_02: Didn't really learn a whole lot, I guess.
- 6:08I didn't really realize that he had bad blood with Saturday
- 6:12Night Live people for a while,
- 6:13but
- 6:15other than that i don't think i learned very much of anything
- 6:18did you yeah well his
- 6:19his his whole life and existence has been on public display you
- 6:24know so you know if
- 6:26you paid any attention to his career at all i mean you were
- 6:29probably aware of
- 6:30SPEAKER_02: probably most of the
- 6:33SPEAKER_02: you know, happenings in his life.
- 6:35SPEAKER_02: But I,
- 6:36SPEAKER_02: I found the,
- 6:37SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 6:37SPEAKER_02: the first part of the documentary,
- 6:40SPEAKER_02: the most interesting,
- 6:41SPEAKER_02: just because it just,
- 6:42SPEAKER_02: you,
- 6:43SPEAKER_02: you forget how quickly his,
- 6:45SPEAKER_02: his star rose.
- 6:47SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah.
- 6:48SPEAKER_02: You know, in such a very, very small window.
- 6:51SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 6:52SPEAKER_02: And how popular he became in, in a matter of five to seven years.
- 6:57SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 6:58SPEAKER_02: You know, is he the most successful black actor of all time?
- 7:05SPEAKER_02: Or is that Denzel?
- 7:08SPEAKER_02: Hard to say.
- 7:09I mean,
- 7:10you know,
- 7:11Eddie has been consistently working since the early 80s.
- 7:16SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 7:17SPEAKER_02: You know, and in so many different...
- 7:19roles and formats you know so so you know i i from a from a
- 7:28standpoint of of
- 7:29conquering various roles from serious roles to funny roles to
- 7:35to animated roles to
- 7:37SPEAKER_02: you know he he's done them all sure
- 7:41SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 7:41SPEAKER_02: so you got to give the guy credit for everything he has accomplished,
- 7:45SPEAKER_02: whether you enjoyed all of his work or not.
- 7:48SPEAKER_02: But,
- 7:48SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 7:49SPEAKER_02: obviously for us,
- 7:50SPEAKER_02: we discussed this before,
- 7:52SPEAKER_02: that his earliest work is our favorite.
- 7:54SPEAKER_02: Oh, of course.
- 7:56SPEAKER_02: You know.
- 7:56SPEAKER_02: Dude,
- 7:56were you bummed watching this thing when he basically blew off
- 8:00what he had said a
- 8:00SPEAKER_02: year ago about going back and doing comedy?
- 8:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 8:04SPEAKER_02: I was bummed when he was like, yeah, I've already done that.
- 8:07SPEAKER_02: I don't need to do that.
- 8:08SPEAKER_00: I don't have nothing to say.
- 8:09SPEAKER_02: But would he be funny though?
- 8:11SPEAKER_02: Even if he went back and did that, do you think he'd be funny?
- 8:14SPEAKER_02: That's the million-dollar question, isn't it?
- 8:17SPEAKER_02: He's been very wealthy for a long time.
- 8:19SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 8:20I just think he'd be very careful about what he would say
- 8:25because when he did Raw
- 8:27SPEAKER_02: and what was the other one?
- 8:30delirious hilarious yeah when he did those two he had nothing
- 8:34to lose at that point
- 8:35true you know now he might go all bill burr now yeah that's
- 8:40that's you you took the
- 8:41words right out of my mouth i was actually just gonna say that
- 8:45he'd be like bill
- 8:45SPEAKER_02: burr yeah you know not funny just
- 8:49SPEAKER_02: Not funny at all.
- 8:50SPEAKER_02: He'd just do observational humor.
- 8:53SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 8:53SPEAKER_02: You know, very safe.
- 8:55SPEAKER_02: Yeah, just safe, easy.
- 8:57SPEAKER_02: Same thing with Chris Rock.
- 8:59SPEAKER_02: Chris Rock, you know, very funny, very edgy.
- 9:03SPEAKER_02: Last couple of stand-ups, eh, not so much.
- 9:06SPEAKER_02: I'm going to be honest.
- 9:07SPEAKER_02: I think the same about Chappelle.
- 9:10SPEAKER_02: I agree.
- 9:11SPEAKER_02: Completely agree.
- 9:12SPEAKER_02: Chappelle, everybody worships him as, like, the guy now, and...
- 9:16SPEAKER_02: He hasn't done anything funny for me since the Chappelle show.
- 9:19SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 9:20So,
- 9:21you know,
- 9:22and his style of quote-unquote stand-up comedy these days is
- 9:28more commentary.
- 9:30SPEAKER_02: It's not really funny.
- 9:32SPEAKER_02: It's just commentary.
- 9:34SPEAKER_02: Social commentary is what he does,
- 9:36SPEAKER_02: and it's not,
- 9:37SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 9:38SPEAKER_02: it might be insightful and things in some areas,
- 9:40SPEAKER_02: but it's not funny.
- 9:41SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 9:42SPEAKER_02: I didn't find anything funny.
- 9:45SPEAKER_02: I watched the last couple and I was just like, yeah, yeah.
- 9:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 9:49SPEAKER_02: Not some, not so much, you know, same here.
- 9:55SPEAKER_02: So when you're,
- 9:55SPEAKER_02: when you're young and hungry and,
- 9:58SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 9:58SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 9:59SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 10:00SPEAKER_02: trying to make something of yourself,
- 10:02SPEAKER_02: that's,
- 10:02SPEAKER_02: that's when you put it all out there.
- 10:03But once you made it to the top,
- 10:05you know,
- 10:06what,
- 10:06what else are you going to do?
- 10:07SPEAKER_02: That's going to be edgy.
- 10:08SPEAKER_02: You're funny.
- 10:10SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 10:10And once you get rich,
- 10:12your stories stop being relatable to regular people.
- 10:15SPEAKER_02: True.
- 10:15SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 10:16SPEAKER_02: that's the other thing is,
- 10:17SPEAKER_02: I mean,
- 10:17SPEAKER_02: what's Eddie Murphy going to talk about that we can relate to?
- 10:21SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 10:21SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 10:21I was at the Lamborghini place and I couldn't decide between
- 10:24the sky blue and the
- 10:26SPEAKER_02: jet black.
- 10:27SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 10:27SPEAKER_02: You know, it's like, yeah, okay, Ed, I can relate to that.
- 10:30SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 10:31SPEAKER_02: As I sit here trying to save up to get brakes for my car.
- 10:38SPEAKER_02: That's too funny.
- 10:39SPEAKER_02: Well, how did the shows go this week?
- 10:43SPEAKER_02: The Chris Aiken Presents and your Seth Williams show.
- 10:46SPEAKER_02: How did those go?
- 10:47SPEAKER_02: Well, there was no cap this week.
- 10:50SPEAKER_02: Eric was recording on the new Steven Piercy record.
- 10:54SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 10:55SPEAKER_02: He was away from home yesterday or Tuesday.
- 10:59SPEAKER_02: I believe he did his show, Eric Ferentino's Unleashed, last night.
- 11:07um as far as seth show it happened it happened it came it went

- 11:19SPEAKER_02: talked about quite honestly i really don't yeah you know so they happened
- 11:24SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I get you.
- 11:25SPEAKER_02: Well, I, I took a trip down to, uh, St.
- 11:28Louis,
- 11:29uh,
- 11:30with,
- 11:30with the docking boys and hung out with Don and John and Chris
- 11:35and DJ and Troy.
- 11:37And you know,
- 11:38the,
- 11:38the whole,
- 11:39the whole group was there as it was the last show of the year.
- 11:42SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 11:43SPEAKER_02: And,
- 11:44SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 11:44SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 11:44SPEAKER_02: it was,
- 11:45SPEAKER_02: it was good to get together,
- 11:46SPEAKER_02: but you know,
- 11:47SPEAKER_02: who came to the show who I haven't seen,
- 11:50SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 11:51SPEAKER_02: in 10 years.
- 11:52SPEAKER_02: Who's that?
- 11:53SPEAKER_02: Our good friend, Greg from WMMT.
- 11:57SPEAKER_01: Oh, no kidding.
- 11:57SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 11:58SPEAKER_02: He made the trip up and, uh, it was very strange because on my way to St.
- 12:04SPEAKER_02: Louis, Nathan from Kentucky hit me up and, uh,
- 12:09SPEAKER_02: you know, he says, I I'm, he, he's a writer.
- 12:12SPEAKER_02: I mean, Nathan writes for newspaper outlets and things like that.
- 12:15And he,
- 12:16he was doing a story that is relatable to the upcoming
- 12:20Thanksgiving holiday.
- 12:21And he wanted my opinion on,
- 12:25um,
- 12:26something and I,
- 12:27and I'll bring that up here in a second.
- 12:28SPEAKER_02: Well, I'll just tell you what it was.
- 12:30He called me and he said,
- 12:31Hey,
- 12:32are you familiar with this tradition of,
- 12:35um,
- 12:37radio stations playing alice's restaurant on thanksgiving oh
- 12:42yeah yeah yeah are you
- 12:43familiar with that i am yeah i never heard of that before 98
- 12:47has been doing it for
- 12:4815 20 years yeah well i guess i guess it kind of started in new
- 12:55york or something
- 12:56SPEAKER_02: okay it kind of like gravitated
- 12:59SPEAKER_02: over to other radio stations, and they started doing it.
- 13:02I think that Mark Gorman over at WMMS,
- 13:07he kind of introduced that to doing it on MMS then.
- 13:11SPEAKER_02: I guess they do it now or something, or they have done it.
- 13:14SPEAKER_02: I'm not really sure, to be honest with you.
- 13:16SPEAKER_02: But I wasn't familiar with this.
- 13:18I guess some commercial radio stations around the country still
- 13:23will do this on
- 13:24SPEAKER_02: Thanksgiving for...
- 13:26you know whatever yeah yeah i know 98.5 has done it for years
- 13:31where they play that
- 13:32horrendous song it's like who wants to hear that for 20 20
- 13:35hours yeah so uh he was
- 13:38just asking me if if i had an opinion or a thought on it and i
- 13:41was just like i
- 13:42wasn't aware anybody did that yeah you know i'd never heard
- 13:45about it you know i
- 13:47SPEAKER_02: never heard it uh you know and
- 13:50stay tuned folks on thanksgiving a special thanksgiving
- 13:54presentation of alice's
- 13:55restaurant i said oh i gotta tune in for that 24 street hours
- 14:00of alice's goodness
- 14:02yeah it's like i gotta i gotta tune in for that horrible you
- 14:06know so we we started
- 14:08SPEAKER_02: chit chatting it up a little bit and uh
- 14:12i i was asking him i said i said hey have you ever uh are you
- 14:17still in contact with
- 14:18psycho postman okay yeah he goes he hasn't heard from him in a
- 14:23long time he said he
- 14:24still has his number so he was going to hit him up and see if
- 14:27he's still alive and
- 14:29SPEAKER_02: kicking or
- 14:31And then he brought up Greg from WMMT because Nathan is from
- 14:37down in the Kentucky area.
- 14:40SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 14:41And his name came up,
- 14:43and we were just chit-chatting it up about that a little bit.
- 14:46SPEAKER_02: And so then, uh, you know, when I was in St.
- 14:49SPEAKER_02: Louis,
- 14:49SPEAKER_02: me and Don were talking and,
- 14:52SPEAKER_02: and putting together the guest list and stuff,
- 14:54SPEAKER_02: he goes,
- 14:54SPEAKER_02: yeah,
- 14:55SPEAKER_02: put,
- 14:55SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 14:56SPEAKER_02: put Greg Napier on the list.
- 14:59SPEAKER_02: And I was just like, Greg, I said, I was just talking about him today.
- 15:02SPEAKER_02: You know, it was just so just coincidental, you know?
- 15:05SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 15:10SPEAKER_02: Hey, you, why are you watching this with commercials?
- 15:14SPEAKER_02: Go commercial-free and unlock exclusive content.
- 15:18SPEAKER_02: Become of the IP today on Locals, Substack, or Rumble Premium.
- 15:23SPEAKER_02: Stop waiting.
- 15:30So I guess Greg has had some health-related issues that he was
- 15:37dealing with,
- 15:38SPEAKER_02: but he's doing much better now.
- 15:40SPEAKER_02: Good.
- 15:41SPEAKER_02: So it was good to see him, and I walked in.
- 15:45I knew he was there,
- 15:46and he was in the dressing room when Don and I came down from
- 15:51SPEAKER_02: from the rooms.
- 15:52SPEAKER_02: And,
- 15:52SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 15:52SPEAKER_02: I walk in and I,
- 15:54SPEAKER_02: I walked in and looked at him and he's,
- 15:56SPEAKER_02: he looks at me and he goes,
- 15:57SPEAKER_02: you probably don't remember me,
- 15:59SPEAKER_02: do you?
- 15:59SPEAKER_02: I said, Greg, how in the fuck could I ever forget you?
- 16:04SPEAKER_02: He didn't think I knew who he was,
- 16:07SPEAKER_02: which was really funny,
- 16:08SPEAKER_02: but you know,
- 16:09SPEAKER_02: he,
- 16:09SPEAKER_02: um,
- 16:10SPEAKER_02: we chatted it up for a few minutes and stuff,
- 16:12SPEAKER_02: but it was,
- 16:13SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 16:14SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 16:14SPEAKER_02: nice to catch up with him.
- 16:16SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 16:16SPEAKER_02: A long time.
- 16:18so he's still doing his show or what does he know i mean they
- 16:21they booted him off
- 16:22that station that wmmt about boy it's been probably close to 10
- 16:28years ago already
- 16:28okay you know and then he moved on to another station and i
- 16:32don't know what
- 16:33happened there but i don't think he's doing anything any of
- 16:36that anymore so okay so
- 16:39SPEAKER_02: but anyway it was nice catching up with him and then uh
- 16:42SPEAKER_02: I caught up with Andrew Freeman.
- 16:44SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 16:45SPEAKER_02: He was singing for Lynch Mob.
- 16:47SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 16:48SPEAKER_02: And, of course, I caught up with George.
- 16:50SPEAKER_02: I chit-chatted it up with George.
- 16:52SPEAKER_02: George was like, what's with everybody dying recently?

- 28:43SPEAKER_02: He didn't really get into it too much.
- 28:45SPEAKER_02: He didn't elaborate?
- 28:46SPEAKER_02: Nah, he just was like, yeah, I had a lot of fun there, man.
- 28:50SPEAKER_02: You have a great place.
- 28:51SPEAKER_02: I was like, oh, thank you.
- 28:53SPEAKER_02: You have a great place.
- 28:54SPEAKER_02: You have a great place.
- 28:55SPEAKER_02: Especially when it's full of furries.
- 28:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I enjoyed playing the Galaga, the Dig Dug.
- 29:01SPEAKER_02: It was great.
- 29:02SPEAKER_02: It was great.
- 29:04SPEAKER_02: What's with all these furries?
- 29:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 29:08SPEAKER_02: I thought the little animals were supposed to be in the games.
- 29:11SPEAKER_02: What the hell is this?
- 29:16yeah i was um i i tell you what i i've seen a couple of things
- 29:22this this whole
- 29:23furry phenomenon yeah which is just really bizarre and it's
- 29:28just the just the uh
- 29:31perversion of it you know people look at it as oh it's just
- 29:35it's just cosplay it's
- 29:36just cosplay but there's a there's a really seedier side to
- 29:40that whole furry thing
- 29:42SPEAKER_02: There's definitely a sexual undertone to it.
- 29:44SPEAKER_02: There is a huge sexual undertone.
- 29:47SPEAKER_02: And it's something,
- 29:48SPEAKER_02: even me,
- 29:49SPEAKER_02: the sickest,
- 29:50SPEAKER_02: most vile human on this planet,
- 29:51SPEAKER_02: I want nothing to do with even knowing what that's about.
- 29:55SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 29:55SPEAKER_02: I won't even watch that in, like, porn or nothing.
- 29:58SPEAKER_02: I want nothing to do with that shit.
- 30:00SPEAKER_02: Just nothing.
- 30:03SPEAKER_02: Nope.
- 30:04SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 30:04SPEAKER_02: apparently I don't know if you'd seen this or not when it,
- 30:07SPEAKER_02: and what caught my,
- 30:08SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 30:09SPEAKER_02: ear,
- 30:10SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 30:10SPEAKER_02: they were reporting on the,
- 30:13SPEAKER_02: the,
- 30:13SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 30:13SPEAKER_02: what do you want to call the,
- 30:15SPEAKER_02: the similarities of the shooters,
- 30:18SPEAKER_02: the,
- 30:18SPEAKER_02: the,
- 30:18SPEAKER_02: the kid that shot at president Trump.
- 30:21SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 30:22SPEAKER_02: And the guy who shot Charlie Kirk.
- 30:25SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 30:26SPEAKER_02: Both of them involved with furries and sexual deviance.
- 30:31SPEAKER_01: Hmm.
- 30:33SPEAKER_02: Not shocking.
- 30:34SPEAKER_02: Well, it's not that it's shocking.
- 30:36It's just interesting that both shooters just happen to be
- 30:40involved in that furry community.
- 30:43SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 30:43SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's a weird... I don't get the whole thing.
- 30:47SPEAKER_02: I can't even imagine... And I guess this tells you where my brain is at.
- 30:52SPEAKER_02: Yours is probably the same place.
- 30:55SPEAKER_02: I can't even imagine walking into a store to buy that.
- 30:59SPEAKER_02: Like, to buy the costume.
- 31:01SPEAKER_02: Yeah, or you have it made.
- 31:03you're having it made even worse yeah yeah uh yeah i need um i
- 31:09need the tail a
- 31:09little a little above the asshole please yeah it needs to flip
- 31:14up and flip up and
- 31:15open right i need i need to come in for my furry fitting yeah
- 31:21this head it's too
- 31:22SPEAKER_02: big can you make it a little tighter
- 31:28SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 31:28SPEAKER_02: And just the fact that they're, they have conventions and everything.
- 31:32SPEAKER_02: That's another bizarre thing too.
- 31:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 31:37SPEAKER_02: I mean, our own Moogle was into the furry thing.
- 31:43SPEAKER_02: Well, he alerted us, too.
- 31:44SPEAKER_02: I don't think either one of us knew anything about it at that point.
- 31:47SPEAKER_02: You're absolutely right.
- 31:48SPEAKER_02: That was the first time we became aware of it.
- 31:51And now we see that Moogle,
- 31:52while he was a freak,
- 31:53he wasn't alone in his freakiness.
- 31:56SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 31:56SPEAKER_02: I think we always thought he was alone in his freakiness.
- 31:59SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 32:00SPEAKER_02: He's very much not.
- 32:01SPEAKER_02: Well, that's the whole thing.
- 32:03SPEAKER_02: It's...
- 32:05SPEAKER_02: it appeals to loners,
- 32:08SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 32:09SPEAKER_02: they,
- 32:09SPEAKER_02: they get into this kind of bizarre,
- 32:12SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 32:12SPEAKER_02: cosplay fantasy,
- 32:15SPEAKER_02: something or other.
- 32:16SPEAKER_02: And it's just, I don't know, man, it's just creepy.
- 32:19SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 32:19SPEAKER_02: It's not, it's, it's weird.
- 32:22SPEAKER_02: And, and your, your nephew is absolutely right.

- 32:28SPEAKER_02: That's a thing.
- 32:30SPEAKER_02: Do they use the litter box?
- 32:33SPEAKER_02: Do they?
- 32:33SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 32:34SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 32:35SPEAKER_02: That's the first I've heard of this.
- 32:36SPEAKER_02: Depending on the party you go to.
- 32:40SPEAKER_02: So they actually use the litter box.
- 32:45SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 32:46SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 32:47SPEAKER_02: Squat over a litter box and take a dump, I guess.
- 32:52SPEAKER_02: In your business.
- 32:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 32:54SPEAKER_02: Hike the tail up and squirt one out your fucking shit cutter.
- 33:01wow all right well there you go there's another twist i was not
- 33:04aware of but you

- 33:10do i want to even
- 33:11know of this that's the worst part is i don't want to know this
- 33:15yeah i really don't
- 33:17SPEAKER_02: want to have that knowledge in my head
- 33:21SPEAKER_02: Tune in, friends.

- 33:41SPEAKER_02: I know you said you don't give a shit.
- 33:42SPEAKER_02: I just want the money.
- 33:44SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
- 33:44SPEAKER_02: Correct.
- 33:45SPEAKER_02: It's like,
- 33:46SPEAKER_02: well,
- 33:46SPEAKER_02: I hope you,
- 33:48SPEAKER_02: and I hope you had plenty of Purell over there that you were,
- 33:52SPEAKER_02: you were cleaning off the jizz stained machines.
- 33:54SPEAKER_02: Hey, we do have plenty of Purell over there.
- 33:57B I'm positive that they made them keep it to the most calm
- 34:03level of furry.
- 34:04SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 34:06SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 34:06SPEAKER_02: I'm positive that if anybody started doing anything weird,
- 34:09SPEAKER_02: they got thrown right the fuck out.
- 34:11SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 34:12SPEAKER_02: I didn't hear any reports of that.
- 34:14I can guarantee you if something weird would have happened,
- 34:17I would have heard about it.
- 34:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 34:20So I'm assuming nothing weird,
- 34:22just a bunch of guys in furry costumes playing pinball.
- 34:26SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 34:28SPEAKER_02: So that's weird.
- 34:29As far as the makeup of the demographic of the furries,
- 34:35did you know if it was mostly guys?
- 34:39SPEAKER_02: It's mostly foxes with a couple of bears.
- 34:42SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 34:45SPEAKER_02: I have no idea.
- 34:45SPEAKER_02: I have no.
- 34:47SPEAKER_02: Dude, I did not ask any questions.
- 34:49SPEAKER_02: I asked one question.
- 34:51SPEAKER_02: How much?
- 34:51SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 34:52SPEAKER_02: How much was the only question?
- 34:55SPEAKER_02: When I heard how much, I said, yep.
- 34:58SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 34:58SPEAKER_02: Book it.
- 34:59SPEAKER_02: I'll take your cash.
- 35:01SPEAKER_02: That's right.
- 35:02SPEAKER_02: Book it.
- 35:03SPEAKER_02: That's funny.
- 35:06SPEAKER_02: Well, all right.
- 35:07SPEAKER_02: Well, quite an interesting week at the pinball PA.
- 35:11SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 35:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I guess so.
- 35:13SPEAKER_02: You know, shit happens.
- 35:15I mean,
- 35:16I was certainly happy with last Saturday with everything went
- 35:20smooth.
- 35:20SPEAKER_02: The Florentine event went smooth.
- 35:23You know,
- 35:23having people from other walks of fame show up was pretty damn
- 35:27cool.
- 35:28SPEAKER_02: Talk about that a little bit.
- 35:30we had um we had um whatchamacallit um the bartender from how i
- 35:37met your mother
- 35:38showed up i don't know i don't remember his name ned something
- 35:42and then um i don't
- 35:43know that show it's not that he's not famous i just don't know
- 35:46that show and then
- 35:48um shane douglas the professor from the old wwf days showed up
- 35:53i guess to meet jim
- 35:54SPEAKER_02: but whatever they were there they all took pictures
- 36:00SPEAKER_02: So that was pretty good.
- 36:01SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 36:02SPEAKER_02: So, you know, I know you said you didn't know.
- 36:05I just was wondering if they,
- 36:07you know,
- 36:07lived within the area or they traveled for this.
- 36:11SPEAKER_02: Nah, they got to live local.
- 36:12SPEAKER_02: There's no way they're traveling.
- 36:15I can't imagine that,
- 36:16you know,
- 36:17Jim plays shows every week across the country.
- 36:19SPEAKER_02: I can't imagine that they're going to travel to pinball PA to see them.
- 36:26SPEAKER_02: You know, I'm assuming they're local guys.
- 36:28SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 36:29SPEAKER_02: I have no idea.
- 36:30SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 36:31SPEAKER_02: Well, that's kind of cool to have some celebrities pop in at the pinball.
- 36:37SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it was good.
- 36:38SPEAKER_02: It was a good little extra bonus, I guess, to an already good day.
- 36:44SPEAKER_02: Yeah,
- 36:44SPEAKER_02: so did people recognize them,
- 36:47SPEAKER_02: or did they introduce themselves,
- 36:49SPEAKER_02: or did Ed know who they were,
- 36:52SPEAKER_02: or how did they know who they were?
- 36:54SPEAKER_02: I think Jim knew who they both were.
- 36:55SPEAKER_02: I know that Ed didn't know who the wrestler was, because he asked me.
- 37:01SPEAKER_02: He's like, do you know this name, Shane Douglas?
- 37:04SPEAKER_02: I was like, yeah, why?
- 37:05SPEAKER_02: And he was like, oh, he's in the building.
- 37:07SPEAKER_02: I was like, huh, you know me.
- 37:09And so I'm like,
- 37:09oh,
- 37:09he's a fucking professor from the mid-'80s,
- 37:11you know?
- 37:12SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 37:13i'm like running down his character and stuff and it's like i
- 37:17just ask him all
- 37:18SPEAKER_02: right well yeah that's who he is and the other dude the the bartender guy
- 37:24i'm i'm assuming jim knew him but he's so monstrous that you
- 37:28wouldn't not notice
- 37:29him right seven foot two or something like that real tall tall
- 37:34guy yeah very big
- 37:36dude so no matter what just being in the room you'd recognize
- 37:39him and think he's
- 37:39done something so who knows but um i don't know how how they
- 37:46figured out that
- 37:46that's who they were but that's who they were so all right no
- 37:50that was cool
- 37:51SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 37:52SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 37:53So aside from the little shakeup over at your pinball place,
- 38:00how is the business over there?
- 38:01SPEAKER_02: I mean, are you guys doing okay?
- 38:04SPEAKER_02: Well, September, October was tough.
- 38:07SPEAKER_02: It always is.
- 38:08SPEAKER_02: Going back to school is always tough.
- 38:11SPEAKER_02: Picks back up in November, which it has.
- 38:13We've had three nice,
- 38:14depending on what we do tomorrow,
- 38:16three nice weeks in a row.
- 38:18SPEAKER_02: So it's fine.
- 38:21SPEAKER_02: It ebbs and flow.
- 38:22SPEAKER_02: It's like everything else, man.
- 38:24SPEAKER_02: Some weeks are good.
- 38:25SPEAKER_02: Some weeks are not good.
- 38:26SPEAKER_02: It happens.
- 38:27SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 38:28do you know if it's gained any notoriety or popularity or
- 38:36people make that like a
- 38:37SPEAKER_02: travel destination or something?
- 38:39SPEAKER_02: Some do.
- 38:40SPEAKER_02: We've had people come as far as Japan.
- 38:43okay because we do have some very rare games you know that are
- 38:49in the building like
- 38:50we we have two or three that are like one of five that are
- 38:53total in existence and
- 38:55SPEAKER_02: so people travel to see that stuff and
- 38:59But for the most part,
- 39:00it's kind of like Chuck E.
- 39:02Cheese without the crime.
- 39:07It's come in,
- 39:08play video games,
- 39:09play pinball,
- 39:11maybe have a piece of birthday cake.
- 39:14SPEAKER_02: That's what it is.
- 39:15SPEAKER_02: It's more for families.
- 39:17SPEAKER_02: We're not really focused too hard on the hardcore gamey people.
- 39:22yeah we want the we want the the 45 year old dad that is having
- 39:27trouble connecting
- 39:28with his kid and looking to share his his love of gaming with
- 39:33his kids love of
- 39:34gaming so they merge at pinball pa that's kind of there you are
- 39:38that's who our
- 39:39crowd is so bringing people together that's what it is we're a
- 39:42family business what

- 39:47family business of
- 39:49SPEAKER_02: course yeah
- 39:50Yeah,
- 39:51then the pornographic video games are behind the curtain in the
- 39:57back.
- 39:58SPEAKER_02: Yes, we got the doors, the little saloon doors.
- 40:02SPEAKER_02: Right, like they used to have at the video stores.
- 40:06SPEAKER_02: Right, exactly.
- 40:08SPEAKER_02: All the family-friendly videos are all out there on the shelves,
- 40:12SPEAKER_02: and then they had this one little area in the back.
- 40:14SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 40:15And it either had those little doors with a bell on it so that
- 40:19you couldn't sneak
- 40:20SPEAKER_02: in there or it had the beads.
- 40:22SPEAKER_02: Remember the beads?
- 40:22SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 40:24SPEAKER_02: So that every time you went back there, you heard that of the beads.
- 40:29SPEAKER_02: Used to eat that shit because I used to always try it.
- 40:32SPEAKER_02: Like we'd go to the – my dad was –
- 40:36he just was like i'm not going to blockbuster i'm going to the
- 40:40local guy which was
- 40:41great because the local guy always had the porn sure but the
- 40:45local guy also had you
- 40:47i think he had the beads thing so every time i'd try and sneak
- 40:51in there he'd hear i

- 41:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 41:16SPEAKER_02: Don't be looking at that stuff.
- 41:18SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 41:18SPEAKER_02: That's funny.
- 41:21SPEAKER_02: Too good.
- 41:22SPEAKER_02: So what was your dad?
- 41:25Did you know what your dad's viewpoint was on porn or video
- 41:30porn or anything like that?
- 41:33SPEAKER_02: He was like most in that era.
- 41:36SPEAKER_02: I don't think he had any video porn.
- 41:38I don't think he shot any of my mom sucking his dick or
- 41:41anything like that.
- 41:42SPEAKER_02: I don't think he was into that.
- 41:46SPEAKER_02: He was like so many of our dads.
- 41:48If you dug around in their sock drawer,
- 41:51you could find a Playboy or whatever.
- 41:55SPEAKER_02: Under the bed or whatever, you could find this or that.
- 42:01SPEAKER_02: He was quiet about it, I guess.
- 42:05When I would go to the office,
- 42:06he had the girly calendar on the wall and that kind of shit.
- 42:11SPEAKER_02: But I don't think he was...
- 42:14he certainly wasn't as sick as me,
- 42:19but he didn't,
- 42:20uh,
- 42:21he didn't preach about it or anything.
- 42:23SPEAKER_02: Look at that filth.
- 42:24SPEAKER_02: Look at that.
- 42:25SPEAKER_02: Nah, not at all.
- 42:28SPEAKER_02: He was just, you know, he would look at a girl.
- 42:32Like if,
- 42:32if he saw an attractive girl though,
- 42:34he wasn't like,
- 42:35Oh my God,
- 42:35look at her ass.
- 42:36SPEAKER_02: You know, he wasn't like that.
- 42:37SPEAKER_02: He was more like a little more subtle.
- 42:40SPEAKER_02: That's pretty well put together, isn't it?
- 42:43SPEAKER_02: Yes, Dad, it is.
- 42:47SPEAKER_02: He was, and he goes, take a look at this smut.
- 42:50SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 42:51SPEAKER_02: Well, you know, dude, it was that age too.
- 42:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 42:54SPEAKER_02: That age was literally not allowed to say anything.
- 42:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 42:58SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 42:59SPEAKER_02: people like your dad,
- 43:00SPEAKER_02: you think your dad's ever been out in the street and been like,
- 43:03SPEAKER_02: that girl's got some really fucking big tits.
- 43:07SPEAKER_02: No.
- 43:07SPEAKER_02: Your dad's never seen.
- 43:08SPEAKER_02: He might look at her and say, hmm, that's very attractive, son.
- 43:11SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 43:14SPEAKER_02: She's a good looking girl.
- 43:16SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 43:18SPEAKER_02: She looks like the type you should be looking to settle down with, son.
- 43:21SPEAKER_02: Right, right.
- 43:23SPEAKER_02: Meanwhile, she's some whore.
- 43:26SPEAKER_02: You're like, you're right, Dad.
- 43:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, settle down.
- 43:30SPEAKER_02: Find a nice girl, settle down.
- 43:32SPEAKER_02: White picket fence, dog.
- 43:37SPEAKER_02: All the things we don't want.
- 43:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it just doesn't work out that way.
- 43:41SPEAKER_02: No, definitely not.

- 49:30SPEAKER_02: Some David Bowie in there with don't bring me down for four heady trunk.

- 49:37SPEAKER_02: And of course,
- 49:38we kick that block off there with some blue cheer with Saturday
- 49:43freedom for Chris.
- 49:45SPEAKER_01: There we go.
- 49:46SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 49:46SPEAKER_02: So old school.
- 49:48SPEAKER_02: That was all old school shit.
- 49:50SPEAKER_02: So I like to group it together, as you know.
- 49:53SPEAKER_01: That's right.
- 49:54SPEAKER_02: And it seems to work out pretty spectacularly every Saturday.
- 50:00SPEAKER_02: You're a genius, man.
- 50:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know, man.
- 50:04SPEAKER_02: Too funny.
- 50:07SPEAKER_02: Too funny.
- 50:08SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 50:10SPEAKER_02: Got anything to kick us off with?
- 50:12SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 50:13SPEAKER_02: Let's get rolling here.
- 50:14SPEAKER_02: Let's get rolling.
- 50:15SPEAKER_02: Favorite of yours.
- 50:17SPEAKER_02: I can't believe I'm going to say it.
- 50:21SPEAKER_02: A secret we kept.
- 50:23SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 50:24SPEAKER_02: We were aware of this for, what, a month or two?
- 50:27SPEAKER_02: I don't know what you're making reference to.
- 50:29SPEAKER_02: I'm making reference to the official announcement of,
- 50:34SPEAKER_02: let me put it on the screen here,
- 50:37Metal Church returning with brand new lineup that includes
- 50:42David Ellefson,
- 50:44SPEAKER_02: Ken Mary,
- 50:45SPEAKER_02: and Brian Allen of Vicious Rumors.
- 50:48SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 50:49SPEAKER_02: Now, we knew about this.
- 50:51SPEAKER_02: When did I tell you?
- 50:53uh about three weeks ago yeah we we knew for a little while but
- 50:57we were sworn to
- 50:58secrecy yeah i mean is is that though is that the quote unquote
- 51:04the metal church
- 51:05lineup you want to see i wonder what uh what prompted the uh
- 51:10big big lineup change
- 51:13yeah the only thing i could think of is maybe the other guys
- 51:16are busy with other
- 51:18SPEAKER_02: bands
- 51:20SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 51:21SPEAKER_02: I mean, or maybe Kurt wasn't happy with the last lineup of the band.
- 51:26SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 51:27SPEAKER_02: That was a pretty solid lineup for most of the members for the last,
- 51:35SPEAKER_02: well,
- 51:36SPEAKER_02: quite a few years,
- 51:37SPEAKER_02: 18 years maybe.
- 51:38SPEAKER_00: No,
- 51:38not that long because there was the lineup in between that we
- 51:42just had with the
- 51:43SPEAKER_02: Congregation of Aggravation or whatever that album was called.
- 51:48SPEAKER_02: The one with Mark Lopes as the singer.
- 51:50Yeah,
- 51:50but aside from the singer,
- 51:53most of the guys have been in the band a while.
- 51:55SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I mean, who knows?
- 51:57SPEAKER_02: They could be busy.
- 51:58They could be busy,
- 52:00or they could be...
- 52:01Kurt didn't want to play with those guys anymore,
- 52:04and...
- 52:05SPEAKER_02: Maybe.
- 52:06SPEAKER_02: Certainly getting Ellefson and Ken Mary in the band,
- 52:09SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 52:09SPEAKER_02: those are upgrades no matter who you put in there.
- 52:12SPEAKER_02: Right, of course.
- 52:13SPEAKER_02: And as you know, Ken Mary was playing with Jack Russell's Great White.
- 52:20SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and Flotsam.
- 52:22yeah for quite a while and you know uh people who may or may
- 52:27not be familiar with
- 52:28ken but uh he he's like a hardcore metal guy yeah he is he's
- 52:33like really into the i
- 52:34mean he'll play the more melodic stuff you know but but he he
- 52:38really likes some of
- 52:39the really brutal stuff you know yeah he's he's a metal drummer
- 52:42that makes money
- 52:43playing less metal stuff right right because he has been was he
- 52:48an alice cooper and
- 52:49SPEAKER_02: um
- 52:50house of lords i think he was in for for a bit yeah um you know
- 52:55so he's been into
- 52:56some some lighter bands i guess not that those bands are light
- 53:00necessarily just
- 53:02SPEAKER_02: melodic bands yeah they're not metal church that's for sure
- 53:07SPEAKER_02: But, yeah, Ken is a player.
- 53:09SPEAKER_02: And Brian Allen from Vicious Rumors, he's good, too.
- 53:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 53:13SPEAKER_02: Well, I mean, they're all good guys.
- 53:15SPEAKER_02: It's just this is almost like an all-star lineup, though.
- 53:19SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 53:20SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 53:21Well,
- 53:22maybe that's the only way to make Metal Church worth enough
- 53:25money to tour.
- 53:26SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 53:27SPEAKER_02: I mean, I have to imagine that Metal Church with Ellefson –
- 53:33specifically with a grammy award winner is worth more than
- 53:38ronnie monroe metal
- 53:39church well yeah i agree but it just seems kind of funny that
- 53:44it i think what it is
- 53:46for me it sounds like a hired gun thing you know it kind of
- 53:51like what uh dead
- 53:52SPEAKER_02: daisies did with glenn hughes sure you know
- 53:56we're dead daisies i mean we we made our mark on the world we
- 54:00you know we had a
- 54:02john karabi in there it's you know he he's those slouch as far
- 54:06as vocals are
- 54:07concerned but he isn't of the star power that a glenn hughes is
- 54:12right you know and
- 54:13then then you know john goes off to do his own thing and they
- 54:18bring in a glenn
- 54:19SPEAKER_02: hughes to front
- 54:21dead daisies and that only lasted you know for a while and then
- 54:26he's off and doing
- 54:28glenn hughes stuff again and then john karabi comes back right
- 54:33you know so that's
- 54:34kind of my point it's it sounds almost hired gunnish you know i
- 54:39i've got some hired
- 54:41SPEAKER_02: name brand people in the band
- 54:44I almost wonder if he did the last lineup with the Mark Lopes
- 54:48and the fact that
- 54:48SPEAKER_02: Lopes especially is not back if he just wasn't happy with it.
- 54:53SPEAKER_02: So he retooled it completely.
- 54:56SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I wasn't impressed with Mark's
- 55:01vocal style you know it just it just seemed too repetitive i
- 55:07liked it personally i
- 55:08thought it was really good and you know it was very aggressive
- 55:11which you know the
- 55:12heavier it is the better i like it so maybe that was it but and
- 55:16and what's the name
- 55:17of this the new singer the new singer is brian allen he was in
- 55:21vicious rumors the
- 55:22last couple of records all right and that's different than even
- 55:27we had heard
- 55:28SPEAKER_02: Because we had heard that the singer from Trauma was the guy.
- 55:34SPEAKER_02: I had heard that.
- 55:35SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 55:36And then when I saw this announcement,
- 55:37I was like,
- 55:37man,
- 55:37did they make a change that quick?
- 55:39So I went back and listened to the demo that we had of Fuck
- 55:44Around and Find Out
- 55:45SPEAKER_02: versus the actual recorded,
- 55:48SPEAKER_02: the one that's released,
- 55:49SPEAKER_02: it's the same guy.
- 55:50SPEAKER_02: So we were just told the wrong guy.
- 55:51SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 55:52SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 55:54SPEAKER_02: But, yeah.
- 55:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 55:56um what would you call this mega church i guess yeah something
- 56:00like that it's mega
- 56:01church something like that well you know i'll be i'll be happy
- 56:05to go see it me too
- 56:06you know if and when it tours around and things but uh you know
- 56:11as a as a fan of
- 56:13metal church i mean you know now we're now we're down to this
- 56:17thing where metal
- 56:19SPEAKER_02: church is kurt vanderhoof yeah
- 56:23Well,
- 56:23I think we're getting down to that with almost every band we
- 56:26like,
- 56:26aren't we?
- 56:26SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 56:29SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 56:30SPEAKER_02: I mean, with, with what's his name?
- 56:37SPEAKER_02: How?
- 56:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 56:39SPEAKER_02: Mike Howe committing suicide a few years ago.
- 56:41SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 56:42You know,
- 56:43it,
- 56:43it,
- 56:43it felt,
- 56:44you know,
- 56:45like the metal church that we could,
- 56:47you know,
- 56:49gravitate toward as far as like the classic sound lineup and
- 56:52all that yeah and but
- 56:54then since since mike's passing you know they they've been
- 56:58trying to find their
- 56:59footing as metal church and you know we'll see how this one
- 57:05works out well would
- 57:07SPEAKER_02: you like me to play the single fafo yeah
- 57:13SPEAKER_02: Let's hear some.
- 57:14SPEAKER_02: Let's hear a little Metal Church with Fuck Around and Find Out.
- 57:20SPEAKER_02: Probably not going to get a lot of radio love on this one.
- 57:22SPEAKER_02: All right, here we go.
- 57:30SPEAKER_02: Hey, you, why are you watching this with commercials?

- 57:43SPEAKER_02: Stop waiting!
- 58:56SPEAKER_02: I can't believe OMOM got this gig.
- 59:01Yeah,
- 59:02this guy has more of a David Wayne-ish delivery than he does a
- 59:08Mike Howe delivery.
- 59:09SPEAKER_02: He does look like OMOM, though.
- 59:11SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he does.
- 59:13SPEAKER_02: And here's some more.
- 59:30SPEAKER_02: Face it, fuck around then you'll find out
- 1:00:01SPEAKER_02: Sounds like Metal Church to me.
- 1:00:04SPEAKER_02: I like it.
- 1:00:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it sounds like earlier Metal Church.
- 1:00:09SPEAKER_02: Again, like I said, the David Wayne era.
- 1:00:12I think this guy could probably carry off the house stuff too,
- 1:00:15don't you think?
- 1:00:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah, absolutely.
- 1:00:19SPEAKER_02: Good choice.
- 1:00:21SPEAKER_02: I'm for this.
- 1:00:23SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 1:00:23SPEAKER_02: What are you thinking on hearing the song?
- 1:00:26SPEAKER_02: Well, I mean, I'm assuming they're
- 1:00:31recording a record yeah yeah there's record coming out all
- 1:00:34right so i you know if
- 1:00:36it's in this direction i i can only imagine it'll be you know
- 1:00:41pretty good i'm
- 1:00:42looking forward to it i think it's going to be solid so that'll
- 1:00:46be fun at least
- 1:00:47SPEAKER_02: we'll have some new metal church for 2026 that should be yeah something
- 1:00:53SPEAKER_02: Well, I wonder if Kurt has gotten his over his back issues.
- 1:01:01I know he's been having back issues for forever and a day,
- 1:01:04which is kind of what sidelined
- 1:01:06metal church at least that's what was in the news anyway or in
- 1:01:11reported right you
- 1:01:13know that uh kurt couldn't tour because of his back issues and
- 1:01:17things but yet right
- 1:01:19after that he was performing with that side that side band yeah
- 1:01:23and had videos and
- 1:01:24everything else so who knows yeah who does know the politics of
- 1:01:30bands and you know
- 1:01:33SPEAKER_02: they're all so honest
- 1:01:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know.
- 1:01:36SPEAKER_02: That's what I'm saying.
- 1:01:37It's just,
- 1:01:38you know,
- 1:01:38what they tell the public and what the truth is,
- 1:01:41is two different things.
- 1:01:43SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:01:43SPEAKER_02: They're always so literally honest with everything they say.
- 1:01:47SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 1:01:48SPEAKER_02: It wasn't low ticket sales, even though we sold 10 tickets to that show.
- 1:01:53SPEAKER_02: It was somebody had a health issue.
- 1:01:55SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:01:56SPEAKER_02: Sure they did.
- 1:01:59SPEAKER_02: Well, anyway, uh, fuck around, find out first single from metal church.
- 1:02:03SPEAKER_02: It is out there.
- 1:02:04SPEAKER_02: New metal church, David Ellefson can marry Brian Allen.
- 1:02:08SPEAKER_02: And who's the fourth, um, long time guitarist, Rick van Zant.
- 1:02:14SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:02:15SPEAKER_02: So he's the only one left from the old crew.
- 1:02:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:02:19So him and him and Kurt obviously like playing off of each
- 1:02:23other and they added a
- 1:02:24SPEAKER_02: new band around them.
- 1:02:26SPEAKER_02: So there you have it.
- 1:02:27SPEAKER_02: Metal church.
- 1:02:28SPEAKER_02: Um,
- 1:02:29SPEAKER_02: I'm kind of excited about that.
- 1:02:31SPEAKER_02: I think it's going to be good.
- 1:02:33SPEAKER_02: I like hearing that there's one,
- 1:02:35SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:02:36SPEAKER_02: I like hearing that there's one more run in,
- 1:02:38SPEAKER_02: in a band that we like,
- 1:02:40SPEAKER_02: you know what I mean?
- 1:02:41SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:02:42SPEAKER_02: You know, cause there's not enough of that.
- 1:02:43SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:02:45SPEAKER_02: Here's one,
- 1:02:46SPEAKER_02: here's another story that I think you,
- 1:02:50SPEAKER_02: I don't think this is a surprise at all,
- 1:02:53SPEAKER_02: but I think you might have something to say about it,
- 1:02:57SPEAKER_02: I guess.
- 1:02:58SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:02:59SPEAKER_02: Um,
- 1:03:00SPEAKER_02: Cinderella,
- 1:03:01SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:03:03apparently was asked to do a huge tour next summer and Tom
- 1:03:09Kiefer shot it right
- 1:03:10SPEAKER_02: down.
- 1:03:11SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:03:12SPEAKER_02: Uh,
- 1:03:12SPEAKER_02: in a new interview with Canada's,
- 1:03:14SPEAKER_02: the metal voice,
- 1:03:15SPEAKER_02: Jimmy K,
- 1:03:15SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:03:16Fred Curry was asked if there could ever be a Cinderella
- 1:03:20reunion of all the
- 1:03:22SPEAKER_02: surviving members of the band.
- 1:03:24SPEAKER_02: Jeff Labar died in 2021 in his apartment in Nashville.
- 1:03:27SPEAKER_02: He was 58.
- 1:03:27SPEAKER_02: Um,
- 1:03:29SPEAKER_02: The Cinderella drummers said, there's not.
- 1:03:33And we were asked to do a big tour next summer,
- 1:03:38a huge tour,
- 1:03:39and it's just not going to happen.
- 1:03:42SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:03:43SPEAKER_02: So it goes on and on, but it's nonsense from there.
- 1:03:47SPEAKER_02: Here's the question.
- 1:03:48SPEAKER_02: What is the big tour that they were asked to do?
- 1:03:52SPEAKER_02: I think I know.
- 1:03:55SPEAKER_02: You have any idea?
- 1:03:56SPEAKER_00: No.
- 1:03:57SPEAKER_02: No.
- 1:03:58SPEAKER_02: Probably the Motley tour.
- 1:04:00SPEAKER_02: You think the Carnival Sins thing?
- 1:04:03SPEAKER_02: What other big tour in their era is there next summer?
- 1:04:07SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 1:04:08SPEAKER_02: Is that considered a big tour, though?
- 1:04:10SPEAKER_02: Here it's playing Blossom.
- 1:04:16here it's here it's blossom with um tesla and extreme okay i
- 1:04:23could easily see it
- 1:04:24being tesla cinderella motley yeah i could see extreme as the
- 1:04:32throw on because
- 1:04:33nuno's hot right now and the motley guys being that kind of
- 1:04:37lame that they would
- 1:04:38SPEAKER_02: just pick up the hot guy
- 1:04:42SPEAKER_02: But don't you think this is probably what it would have been?
- 1:04:45SPEAKER_02: It could have been.
- 1:04:47SPEAKER_02: I mean, I wasn't aware of that.
- 1:04:49SPEAKER_02: I mean,
- 1:04:49SPEAKER_02: because part of the stories that I brought has to do with this fact that,
- 1:04:55SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:04:56SPEAKER_02: the quote unquote,
- 1:04:57SPEAKER_02: the carnival of sins is back.
- 1:05:00SPEAKER_02: Yeah, who cares?
- 1:05:01SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:05:03SPEAKER_02: Are you excited?
- 1:05:05SPEAKER_02: Well, that was going to be my question.
- 1:05:08SPEAKER_02: Please, we can switch to that.
- 1:05:11SPEAKER_02: Let's stay here just for a second, and we'll do mine right after this.
- 1:05:17is this a sign that tom just does not get along with fred and
- 1:05:25brittingham i don't i
- 1:05:26don't think it has anything to do with them getting along well
- 1:05:30i'm not i'm not
- 1:05:31SPEAKER_02: aware that there was any animosity not either but
- 1:05:35SPEAKER_02: The only reason,
- 1:05:36SPEAKER_02: as far as I know,
- 1:05:38that they did not prior to the death of Jeff Labar is because
- 1:05:46of Jeff Labar's being
- 1:05:49out of hand with the substance abuse and the drugs and alcohol
- 1:05:53and things.
- 1:05:54SPEAKER_02: Because I guess...
- 1:05:57you know they were on one of those rock cruises sure and i
- 1:06:01guess things kind of got
- 1:06:02out of hand and he kind of uh embarrassed acted up right yeah
- 1:06:08and uh i guess tom
- 1:06:10was like i'm not gonna i'm not gonna tour and be responsible
- 1:06:16for someone dying on
- 1:06:19SPEAKER_01: tour you know but that guy's not in it anymore
- 1:06:22SPEAKER_02: Well, true.
- 1:06:23But what I'm saying is I'm not aware that there's any animosity
- 1:06:28between Tom and Fred and Jeff.
- 1:06:33SPEAKER_02: So why would he not do this?
- 1:06:35SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 1:06:36SPEAKER_02: Maybe he just wants the money for himself.
- 1:06:39SPEAKER_02: I guess, but it's got to be.
- 1:06:41SPEAKER_02: Maybe it's one of those things that,
- 1:06:43SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:06:43SPEAKER_02: it makes less sense for Tom to go do Cinderella when he's
- 1:06:50SPEAKER_02: You know, it takes all the proceeds for his Tom Kiefer band.
- 1:06:56SPEAKER_02: Yeah, maybe.
- 1:06:57SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 1:06:59SPEAKER_02: I have a theory on this.
- 1:07:00It's a total throwing the spaghetti at the wall and seeing what
- 1:07:04sticks theory.
- 1:07:07SPEAKER_02: Do you think maybe it's because Kiefer's wife is in the solo band?
- 1:07:13SPEAKER_02: Well, that could be something to it.
- 1:07:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:07:16SPEAKER_02: So he'll stay with the solo band instead of going.
- 1:07:19SPEAKER_02: Because, A, this would make a ton more money, even in an opening slot.
- 1:07:24SPEAKER_02: This would make a lot more money than playing a tooth out like a casino.
- 1:07:29SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:07:30SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 1:07:31SPEAKER_02: if he's out there playing sheds,
- 1:07:34SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:07:34SPEAKER_02: they got to be getting,
- 1:07:36SPEAKER_02: what,
- 1:07:37SPEAKER_02: $20,000 a night,
- 1:07:37SPEAKER_02: right?
- 1:07:38SPEAKER_02: Well, here's the thing.
- 1:07:40SPEAKER_02: I would think that the Tom Kiefer band playing casinos.
- 1:07:45yeah he's probably getting 20 to 25 so do you think this would
- 1:07:50be more though on in
- 1:07:52but if if he was if cinderella was getting a shed and let's
- 1:07:58just say that their
- 1:07:59their price was 30 000 right a night split that up three ways
- 1:08:05that's 10 grand a
- 1:08:06SPEAKER_02: piece yeah
- 1:08:09SPEAKER_02: Tom Kiefer playing a casino at $20,000 or $25,000.
- 1:08:12SPEAKER_02: That's $25,000.
- 1:08:13SPEAKER_02: No, I get it.
- 1:08:17SPEAKER_02: And I get the math of it.
- 1:08:18SPEAKER_02: The thing I wonder, though, is...
- 1:08:22and this is only from knowing musicians for a lot of years they
- 1:08:27hunger for that big
- 1:08:28stage once again once they haven't had it they get hungry for
- 1:08:33it you think Kiefer
- 1:08:34just doesn't care it's just work to him now yeah I don't know I
- 1:08:37just I just think
- 1:08:38SPEAKER_02: Kiefer I think Kiefer is just a guy who who just really puts a lot of um
- 1:08:46SPEAKER_02: value into his, his art or his craft.
- 1:08:50SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:08:51SPEAKER_02: And I don't think that,
- 1:08:52SPEAKER_02: and the thing is,
- 1:08:53SPEAKER_02: is he could play those Cinderella songs anytime he wants and does,
- 1:08:59SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:09:00SPEAKER_02: obviously along with a solo,
- 1:09:04SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:09:04SPEAKER_02: material and stuff,
- 1:09:05SPEAKER_02: but I'm sure it has to do with just,
- 1:09:09SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:09:10SPEAKER_02: it's,
- 1:09:10SPEAKER_02: it,
- 1:09:11SPEAKER_02: it,
- 1:09:12SPEAKER_02: economic sense.
- 1:09:13SPEAKER_02: It doesn't make any economic sense for Tom to.
- 1:09:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:09:16SPEAKER_02: Resurrect Cinderella.
- 1:09:19SPEAKER_02: It's sad in this point to see it just because,
- 1:09:23SPEAKER_02: I don't know,
- 1:09:25SPEAKER_02: for me,
- 1:09:26SPEAKER_02: and again,
- 1:09:27SPEAKER_02: I'm only speaking for me personally.
- 1:09:29SPEAKER_02: Maybe other people have a different opinion.
- 1:09:31SPEAKER_02: Maybe you do.
- 1:09:33SPEAKER_02: I don't connect at all with the Tom Kiefer band.
- 1:09:36SPEAKER_02: I mean, the songs are good.
- 1:09:40SPEAKER_02: I don't want to say it's bad.
- 1:09:43SPEAKER_02: You know, I listened to it.
- 1:09:44SPEAKER_02: The songs sound okay,
- 1:09:46SPEAKER_02: but it's missing whatever it was that Cinderella had,
- 1:09:50SPEAKER_02: and I don't know what that is,
- 1:09:54SPEAKER_02: but it's not in the Kiefer band to me.
- 1:09:56SPEAKER_02: Well, it isn't as raw and edgy, the Kiefer band.
- 1:10:02SPEAKER_02: It's more laid back.
- 1:10:04SPEAKER_02: The Kiefer band is more laid back.
- 1:10:06SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:10:07SPEAKER_02: I mean, you know, cause Tom, Tom is really into the whole blues thing.
- 1:10:12And,
- 1:10:13and I think that,
- 1:10:14uh,
- 1:10:14you know,
- 1:10:15he settles into that,
- 1:10:16that blues pocket.
- 1:10:18SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:10:18SPEAKER_02: He's stuck in the heartbreak station.
- 1:10:21SPEAKER_02: Yeah, exactly.
- 1:10:24SPEAKER_02: So, but I think that's what he likes.
- 1:10:27SPEAKER_02: I mean,
- 1:10:27SPEAKER_02: I I'm sure he likes to jam out and stuff,
- 1:10:29SPEAKER_02: but I think his,
- 1:10:31SPEAKER_02: his heart is in that,
- 1:10:33SPEAKER_02: that,
- 1:10:34SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:10:34SPEAKER_02: laid back blues slide guitar.
- 1:10:37SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 1:10:38SPEAKER_02: And,
- 1:10:38SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:10:39SPEAKER_02: kind of,
- 1:10:39SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:10:41SPEAKER_02: kind of like what melon camp does,
- 1:10:43SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:10:43SPEAKER_02: that,
- 1:10:43SPEAKER_02: that,
- 1:10:43SPEAKER_02: what do you,
- 1:10:45SPEAKER_02: what do you call that?
- 1:10:46SPEAKER_02: Um, dad rock heartland, heartland, heartland dad rock.
- 1:10:52SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:10:53SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
- 1:10:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and I guess Tom Kiefer is in that world.
- 1:10:57SPEAKER_02: He's like in the same world as like Bon Jovi as well.
- 1:11:00SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:11:00SPEAKER_02: Bon Jovi used to rock.
- 1:11:02SPEAKER_02: Now he plays that garbage that we played last week.
- 1:11:05SPEAKER_02: You know, so, yeah, I don't know.
- 1:11:11SPEAKER_02: I just saw this.
- 1:11:12I was like,
- 1:11:12this is,
- 1:11:13to me,
- 1:11:15I saw this and was like,
- 1:11:16man,
- 1:11:16is that disappointing.
- 1:11:19SPEAKER_02: Cause that would have been a reason to sneak out and see that show.
- 1:11:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:11:23Even at blossom,
- 1:11:25if it was Tesla and Cinderella,
- 1:11:29and then I could leave,
- 1:11:30I would go.
- 1:11:33SPEAKER_02: I would go to that.
- 1:11:34SPEAKER_02: I would go see Tesla and Cinderella.
- 1:11:35SPEAKER_02: There's no way I would stay for Motley.
- 1:11:38I have zero interest in seeing it and then seeing half of the
- 1:11:42show because it's at
- 1:11:43Blossom instead of inside where they can erect all the bullshit
- 1:11:48to mask their lack
- 1:11:49SPEAKER_02: of playing ability.
- 1:11:52SPEAKER_02: I can't imagine going to that and staying for that,
- 1:11:54SPEAKER_02: but I would like to see Cinderella and I would like to see Tesla again,
- 1:11:59SPEAKER_02: but I guess I'll just wait for the casino shows.
- 1:12:02SPEAKER_02: I guess that's what I got to do.
- 1:12:04SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:12:05SPEAKER_02: So anyway, go ahead with your Motley thing.
- 1:12:08SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 1:12:08SPEAKER_02: what I was,
- 1:12:09SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:12:09SPEAKER_02: what I was going to say is,
- 1:12:11SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:12:12obviously not that a Motley tour is a big deal because he just
- 1:12:18been beating that
- 1:12:19SPEAKER_02: horse to death forever.
- 1:12:20SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 1:12:21SPEAKER_02: But,
- 1:12:22SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:12:22SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:12:22SPEAKER_02: to,
- 1:12:22to announce it as if it's like a big deal to have the carnival
- 1:12:26of sins tour again,
- 1:12:28SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:12:31SPEAKER_02: and,
- 1:12:31SPEAKER_02: and you know,
- 1:12:31SPEAKER_02: all the theatrics on the stage and you know,
- 1:12:35SPEAKER_02: the,
- 1:12:36SPEAKER_02: well,
- 1:12:37SPEAKER_02: as they describe,
- 1:12:38SPEAKER_02: well,
- 1:12:38SPEAKER_02: hang on a minute.
- 1:12:38SPEAKER_02: Let's let's,
- 1:12:40SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:12:41SPEAKER_02: let me see if I could find this,
- 1:12:42SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:12:43SPEAKER_02: this one clip I had from when they were doing the carnival sins thing.
- 1:12:49SPEAKER_02: Uh, let me see here.
- 1:12:52I guess they've forgotten that wasn't that the last tour that
- 1:12:55wasn't that the retirement tour?
- 1:12:58SPEAKER_02: Was that carnival?
- 1:12:59SPEAKER_02: No, no, no, no, no.
- 1:13:01SPEAKER_02: This was back in the early part of the two thousands.
- 1:13:06SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 1:13:07SPEAKER_02: I gave up on Motley long before that.
- 1:13:09SPEAKER_02: I think the last time I went and saw Motley was with you.
- 1:13:14SPEAKER_02: Was that generation swine?
- 1:13:17SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that was at the CSU Convocation Center or something like that.
- 1:13:21SPEAKER_02: I think that's the last time I saw him.
- 1:13:22SPEAKER_02: I just was, like, done with him after that.
- 1:13:25Yeah,
- 1:13:26here's the morning show that they,
- 1:13:31Nicky and Mick Mars,
- 1:13:35were doing a morning show in St.
- 1:13:38SPEAKER_02: Louis because they were bringing that Carnival of Sins tour.
- 1:13:41SPEAKER_02: Oh, back then?
- 1:13:42SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and they didn't...
- 1:13:47the the hosts the morning show hosts on the like a tv thing
- 1:13:52yeah uh they obviously
- 1:13:55did not know much about motley and so nikki was kind of goofing
- 1:13:59on him sure and and
- 1:14:01they real they finally got to the point he realized he was
- 1:14:04being goofed on and
- 1:14:05SPEAKER_02: right was got all butthurt about it but here here's here's that clip

- 1:14:16SPEAKER_03: It's two of the most popular band members of Motley Crue.
- 1:14:19SPEAKER_03: Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue joining us live this morning.
- 1:14:23SPEAKER_03: Are you guys alive?

- 1:14:29SPEAKER_03: I think we know who you are.
- 1:14:30SPEAKER_02: I think we got that.
- 1:14:31SPEAKER_03: You guys are pretty famous.
- 1:14:32You guys were banned from NBC for using a naughty word that
- 1:14:35wasn't bleeped out on
- 1:14:36SPEAKER_03: New Year's Eve,
- 1:14:37SPEAKER_03: but we're letting you hear on Fox.
- 1:14:39SPEAKER_03: We can say it on Fox?
- 1:14:40SPEAKER_02: No, no, no.
- 1:14:41SPEAKER_03: That's not what I'm saying.
- 1:14:42SPEAKER_03: Oh, I was excited.
- 1:14:45SPEAKER_03: We did want to give you a big congratulations, though.
- 1:14:47Apparently,
- 1:14:47you guys were hearing are the sixth top grossing midsummer
- 1:14:53tour.
- 1:14:54SPEAKER_03: And so, I mean, that's great.
- 1:14:55SPEAKER_03: We got Kenny Chesney at number one, but you guys are at number six.
- 1:14:59SPEAKER_03: We put the gross in grossing.
- 1:15:04SPEAKER_02: This whole segment is so tough to listen to.
- 1:15:07SPEAKER_02: I know.
- 1:15:07SPEAKER_02: It's just that female.
- 1:15:10SPEAKER_02: Both of them.
- 1:15:12SPEAKER_02: The corporate guy.
- 1:15:13SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know.
- 1:15:16SPEAKER_02: You said a naughty word.
- 1:15:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:15:18This is a guy that probably spends his time reading,
- 1:15:21like,
- 1:15:21stocks and stuff.
- 1:15:23SPEAKER_02: On the NASDAQ today, C-U-K is up 31 points, and look who it is.
- 1:15:29SPEAKER_02: It's the guys from the Motley Crue.
- 1:15:31SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:15:34SPEAKER_02: Just not the right guy.
- 1:15:37SPEAKER_02: Oh, I took the braids out when I got back in Motley Crue.
- 1:15:41SPEAKER_02: I decided the braids didn't look right.
- 1:15:45SPEAKER_03: It looks okay to us.
- 1:15:47SPEAKER_03: Do you like it?
- 1:15:49SPEAKER_03: Where is Tommy today?
- 1:15:50SPEAKER_03: I don't like it.
- 1:15:52SPEAKER_03: I'm Tommy.
- 1:15:54SPEAKER_03: What happened to Tommy?
- 1:15:55SPEAKER_03: I'm looking up at the screen.
- 1:15:57SPEAKER_03: I realize that Tommy's not even there.
- 1:15:59SPEAKER_02: Well, you introduced me as Tommy.
- 1:16:01SPEAKER_02: I figured I would go with the flow.
- 1:16:02SPEAKER_02: Oh, that's Mick.
- 1:16:03SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:16:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah, they're trying to pull a joke on us.
- 1:16:06SPEAKER_03: You guys are pulling a fast one.
- 1:16:09SPEAKER_02: You're pulling a fast one.
- 1:16:10SPEAKER_02: Ooh, shame on you.
- 1:16:13SPEAKER_02: Jesus, that's bad.
- 1:16:14SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:16:16SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:16:19SPEAKER_02: You're going to be in St.
- 1:16:19SPEAKER_02: Louis coming up pretty soon.
- 1:16:21SPEAKER_02: We are.
- 1:16:21SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:16:22SPEAKER_02: Tell us some of your memories from St.
- 1:16:24SPEAKER_02: Louis.
- 1:16:25SPEAKER_02: Can you remember anything?
- 1:16:28Well,
- 1:16:29I remember that we've had great shows there,
- 1:16:32and it's a rowdy crowd.
- 1:16:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:16:35SPEAKER_02: And we've got,
- 1:16:36SPEAKER_02: this time around,
- 1:16:37SPEAKER_02: Carnival of Sins Tour,
- 1:16:38SPEAKER_02: we've got Sum 41,
- 1:16:42SPEAKER_02: Silver Tide,
- 1:16:42SPEAKER_02: the X's,
- 1:16:43SPEAKER_02: and the Yeasty Girls with us.
- 1:16:45SPEAKER_02: Ooh, that sounds like fun.
- 1:16:47SPEAKER_02: Have you heard the UC girls yet?
- 1:16:49SPEAKER_02: No, I haven't.
- 1:16:49SPEAKER_02: I'm looking forward to this one.
- 1:16:51SPEAKER_02: Are you?
- 1:16:53SPEAKER_02: You sound like a guy who's going to be front row and center for this.
- 1:16:58SPEAKER_02: Oh, that sounds like fun.
- 1:16:59He sounds like the guy that knew Kenny Chesney when he said
- 1:17:02that name but has no
- 1:17:03SPEAKER_02: idea who he's talking to.
- 1:17:05SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:17:08You recently spent some time down at Disneyland with your son
- 1:17:12and your wife.
- 1:17:13SPEAKER_03: This has got to be kind of rough.
- 1:17:14SPEAKER_03: You've got a 10-year-old now.
- 1:17:16SPEAKER_03: And you're out touring around with the band.
- 1:17:18SPEAKER_03: I've got five kids.
- 1:17:20SPEAKER_03: You've got that many?
- 1:17:21SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 1:17:21SPEAKER_03: Holy cow, you've been busy.
- 1:17:23SPEAKER_03: Well, I've had sex five times in my life.
- 1:17:25SPEAKER_03: Exactly, yeah.
- 1:17:28SPEAKER_03: You should be very potent.
- 1:17:31SPEAKER_03: I'm very potent.
- 1:17:34SPEAKER_03: You're impotent.
- 1:17:35SPEAKER_02: I'm an impotent, potent person.
- 1:17:37SPEAKER_02: That's right.
- 1:17:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but I mean, is it rough being away from the family on tour?
- 1:17:41SPEAKER_02: Yes, it is.
- 1:17:42SPEAKER_02: I mean, it's different from the 80s.
- 1:17:43SPEAKER_02: This is the worst.
- 1:17:47SPEAKER_02: This is tame-down morning TV for the housewives.
- 1:17:55SPEAKER_02: This is everything that could possibly be wrong in an interview.
- 1:18:00SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:18:01SPEAKER_02: Bad questions.
- 1:18:02SPEAKER_02: Every question is a what's it like or some form of a what's it like.
- 1:18:05Well,
- 1:18:06again,
- 1:18:08it's two morning show hosts who know nothing about Motley Crue.
- 1:18:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:18:13SPEAKER_02: The ultimate hub for metal talk is classicmetalshow.locals.com.
- 1:18:19SPEAKER_02: Get free episodes, social commentary, and VIP exclusive content.
- 1:18:26SPEAKER_02: It's our online home.
- 1:18:28SPEAKER_02: That's classicmetalshow.locals.com.
- 1:18:32SPEAKER_02: And clearly their staff didn't do any research.
- 1:18:36SPEAKER_02: Handed them a piece of paper that said, Motley Crue, September 16th, St.
- 1:18:42SPEAKER_02: Louis Arena, whatever they're playing.
- 1:18:44SPEAKER_02: And that's all they have in front of them.
- 1:18:46SPEAKER_02: They have no information, no knowledge.
- 1:18:49SPEAKER_02: What's your favorite memory of our town?
- 1:18:51SPEAKER_02: Really?
- 1:18:52SPEAKER_02: Can you remember anything about St.
- 1:18:55SPEAKER_02: Louis?
- 1:18:56SPEAKER_02: Oh.
- 1:18:57SPEAKER_02: Because we heard that you guys party all the time,
- 1:19:00SPEAKER_02: so everything we ask is going to be a question about you being drunk.
- 1:19:06SPEAKER_02: This sucks.
- 1:19:09SPEAKER_02: It is different,
- 1:19:11but the important part of touring is to put the best show on
- 1:19:15that we can put on.
- 1:19:16We think we're putting on one of the best shows in rock and
- 1:19:18roll right now.
- 1:19:19SPEAKER_00: We're having a blast.
- 1:19:21SPEAKER_00: Excuse me, the phone's ringing.
- 1:19:23SPEAKER_03: You can't do that yet.
- 1:19:24SPEAKER_03: So the show includes aerial displays, circus performers.
- 1:19:27SPEAKER_03: Is that all included in the show when you come to St.
- 1:19:28SPEAKER_03: Louis?
- 1:19:30SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 1:19:31SPEAKER_02: All of it.
- 1:19:31SPEAKER_02: Choppers on stage, pyro, video screens, circus tents.
- 1:19:37SPEAKER_02: Fire-blowing midgets.
- 1:19:38SPEAKER_02: Fire-blowing midgets.
- 1:19:39SPEAKER_02: Sometimes we blow the midget up.
- 1:19:42SPEAKER_03: Sometimes Nikki catches on fire.
- 1:19:44SPEAKER_02: Is that right?
- 1:19:45SPEAKER_02: Is that right?
- 1:19:46SPEAKER_02: What?
- 1:19:46SPEAKER_02: No, we're just kidding.
- 1:19:50SPEAKER_02: Oh, Lord.
- 1:19:51SPEAKER_03: Final question.
- 1:19:52SPEAKER_03: He had to mention the F word.
- 1:19:53SPEAKER_03: They're telling me we got to wrap, guys, but I want to ask you.
- 1:19:56SPEAKER_03: Who rocked harder in the 80s, Motley Crue or Poison?
- 1:20:00SPEAKER_03: Who?
- 1:20:01SPEAKER_03: Thanks for joining us.
- 1:20:03SPEAKER_02: What an asshole.
- 1:20:05SPEAKER_02: Oh, got to bleep that one.
- 1:20:06SPEAKER_03: Thank you, guys.
- 1:20:07SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:20:08SPEAKER_02: We're moving right along right now.
- 1:20:09SPEAKER_02: We want to tell you that we've got some more stuff coming up.
- 1:20:12SPEAKER_03: That concert, by the way, August 9th, if you really want to see it.
- 1:20:14SPEAKER_03: I'm not going to be there.
- 1:20:16SPEAKER_03: You won't be there.
- 1:20:16SPEAKER_02: No.
- 1:20:18SPEAKER_02: No kidding.
- 1:20:19SPEAKER_02: I thought you said that was going to be fun.
- 1:20:21SPEAKER_02: You couldn't wait for it.
- 1:20:23SPEAKER_02: Now you're not going to be there.
- 1:20:25SPEAKER_02: Now because he called you an asshole, you're not going.
- 1:20:28SPEAKER_02: When you were being an asshole.
- 1:20:30SPEAKER_02: Jesus Christ.
- 1:20:31SPEAKER_02: So there you go.

- 1:22:50SPEAKER_02: It's a whole lot of shows I won't be going to.
- 1:22:54SPEAKER_02: There's no reason to go to this.
- 1:22:56SPEAKER_02: Ugh.
- 1:22:58so yeah are you amazed that you just don't like this band at
- 1:23:01the level that we
- 1:23:02don't well i am they're a joke anymore i mean i mean the i i
- 1:23:08think the big number
- 1:23:10well there's two biggest reasons you know obviously vince has
- 1:23:14has been so out of
- 1:23:16shape and just hard to watch and listen to you know and you
- 1:23:22know you already know
- 1:23:23SPEAKER_02: that it's all
- 1:23:24fake you know as vince hasn't sung words in 20 years right you
- 1:23:30know and and that
- 1:23:31gets old you know that just gets to be an old shtick and then
- 1:23:35of course nikki six
- 1:23:36and his you know antics you know you just he's just become a
- 1:23:41very dislikable person
- 1:23:43and you're just like why do i want to go see nikki six up there
- 1:23:46doing fake bass
- 1:23:47lines and you know out of shape that my uh vince neal not
- 1:23:52singing the words and
- 1:23:54SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 1:23:54obviously Tommy has kept himself together and still seems to
- 1:23:59perform at a high
- 1:24:00SPEAKER_02: level as a drummer,
- 1:24:01SPEAKER_02: you know?
- 1:24:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah,
- 1:24:02SPEAKER_02: but even him,
- 1:24:03SPEAKER_02: there was a time that you would just go to see Tommy Lee,
- 1:24:05SPEAKER_02: but now it's just,
- 1:24:08we've had too many rap videos that just make him an obnoxious
- 1:24:11douche that we don't
- 1:24:12SPEAKER_02: want to see anymore.
- 1:24:13SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:24:14SPEAKER_02: But, you know, we've seen it.
- 1:24:16SPEAKER_02: That's the thing.
- 1:24:17SPEAKER_02: We've seen it too much.
- 1:24:18SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 1:24:19they burned out the market and it's just what what do they
- 1:24:22bring into the table
- 1:24:23that that we haven't seen already yeah nothing and and it just
- 1:24:28gets worse and worse
- 1:24:30with each tour i mean now you know vince recovering from two
- 1:24:34strokes you know yeah
- 1:24:38SPEAKER_02: so now you got to stroke that vince neal and and no mcmars and um
- 1:24:45SPEAKER_02: Wheeling out the Carnival of Sins props.
- 1:24:49SPEAKER_02: Well, at least John Fievel looked the part.
- 1:24:52SPEAKER_02: He looks like he's from a carnival.
- 1:24:54SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:24:56SPEAKER_02: He does.
- 1:24:56I mean,
- 1:24:57with the big long coat and the white makeup and stuff,
- 1:24:59he looks like a clown.
- 1:25:01SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he looks like a circus performer.
- 1:25:03SPEAKER_02: He does.
- 1:25:03SPEAKER_02: He'll fit right in on this stage.
- 1:25:05SPEAKER_02: You won't know if it's him or a midget blowing fire.
- 1:25:08SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:25:08SPEAKER_02: At least he'll fit.
- 1:25:11SPEAKER_02: But, again, is the...
- 1:25:15announcement that it's the carnival of sins return is is that a
- 1:25:19is that a big draw
- 1:25:20did people go man that was that was the most you know
- 1:25:25entertaining motley show i've
- 1:25:26ever seen yeah i it was so good 25 years ago i gotta go again
- 1:25:31yeah no one is saying
- 1:25:33SPEAKER_02: that nobody is saying that uh yeah this this just sounds terrible
- 1:25:41really does not sound like a good fun time at least to me i
- 1:25:45don't know about to you
- 1:25:46but to me it sounds awful i'm not going to that so nikki six
- 1:25:52says vince neal
- 1:25:53SPEAKER_02: sounded solid and badass yeah this this is let me put that on the screen
- 1:26:03Nikki six says Vince Neil sounded solid and bad-ass during the
- 1:26:07latest residency.
- 1:26:09SPEAKER_02: Did he though?
- 1:26:10SPEAKER_02: No.
- 1:26:12SPEAKER_02: Is there any video from it at all?
- 1:26:14SPEAKER_02: From the residency?
- 1:26:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:26:16SPEAKER_02: I'm sure there is, and I'm sure he sounds terrible.
- 1:26:19SPEAKER_02: I want to know how solid and bad-ass Vince sounded at the residency.
- 1:26:26SPEAKER_01: Let's find us one here.
- 1:26:31SPEAKER_02: I, you know, how, how, uh, how do you try to sell that to the audience?
- 1:26:36SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 1:26:37SPEAKER_02: is that,
- 1:26:37SPEAKER_02: is that the,
- 1:26:38SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:26:38SPEAKER_02: selling point that,
- 1:26:40SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:26:40SPEAKER_02: Nikki says that Vince is sounding better than ever and people go,
- 1:26:44SPEAKER_02: oh,
- 1:26:44SPEAKER_02: well,
- 1:26:44SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:26:44SPEAKER_02: I was,
- 1:26:46SPEAKER_02: I was thinking about skipping out on the Motley show,
- 1:26:48SPEAKER_02: but now that Nikki says that Vince sounds solid and bad-ass,
- 1:26:52SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 1:26:54SPEAKER_02: I'm,
- 1:26:54SPEAKER_02: I'm going to go.
- 1:26:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:26:56SPEAKER_02: Yeah, because apparently no Motley Crue fan has YouTube.
- 1:26:59SPEAKER_02: All right, let's see.
- 1:27:03SPEAKER_02: Let's see if he sounds.
- 1:27:04I pulled this completely at random,
- 1:27:06so I don't even know if the audio is good.
- 1:27:08SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 1:27:09SPEAKER_02: Here we go.
- 1:27:09SPEAKER_02: If he sounds solid and badass.
- 1:27:11SPEAKER_02: All right, let's go.
- 1:27:55better it's hard to tell on this if that's vince actually
- 1:28:02singing the words i mean
- 1:28:05it's probably not it's probably not but yeah that's that's a
- 1:28:09pretty big that's a
- 1:28:10pretty big stage they got though dude they're still a huge band
- 1:28:14i know i get it i
- 1:28:15know people will go but i'm just i don't know we can't figure
- 1:28:20out why it's still a
- 1:28:21SPEAKER_02: big band that's the problem they haven't been good in
- 1:28:26SPEAKER_02: Have they been good since Karabi left?
- 1:28:29SPEAKER_02: Honestly, and I'm not trying to say that because I'm a Karabi guy.
- 1:28:31SPEAKER_02: I mean,
- 1:28:33SPEAKER_02: are there legitimate even songs that you catch yourself,
- 1:28:37SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 1:28:39SPEAKER_02: we're the saints of Los Angeles or whatever.
- 1:28:41SPEAKER_02: Do you catch yourself humming along the way or pulling up on Spotify?
- 1:28:47SPEAKER_02: After Karabi.
- 1:28:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:28:48SPEAKER_02: New tattoo.
- 1:28:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:28:50SPEAKER_02: New tattoo or what's the other one?
- 1:28:52SPEAKER_02: Murder in high heels or something.
- 1:28:54SPEAKER_02: Hell in high heels.
- 1:28:55SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:28:56SPEAKER_02: Hell in high heels.
- 1:28:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:28:57SPEAKER_02: There's that fake.
- 1:28:59SPEAKER_02: There's that song fake from new tattoo.
- 1:29:01SPEAKER_02: I mean, have they done any dogs of war sex?
- 1:29:06SPEAKER_02: These are all lousy songs.
- 1:29:10SPEAKER_02: All of them.
- 1:29:12I don't think they've had a good song since Dr.
- 1:29:15Feelgood with the Vince lineup.
- 1:29:19SPEAKER_02: Do you think they have?
- 1:29:21SPEAKER_02: No.
- 1:29:22SPEAKER_02: If I Die Tomorrow?
- 1:29:23SPEAKER_02: Was that them?
- 1:29:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:29:26SPEAKER_02: No.
- 1:29:27SPEAKER_02: Since Dr. Feelgood, that was their pinnacle right there.
- 1:29:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:29:32SPEAKER_02: And it was over.
- 1:29:33SPEAKER_02: And Primal Scream on that Best Of thing.
- 1:29:37SPEAKER_02: Best Of, yeah.
- 1:29:39SPEAKER_02: Which was probably just a throw, a holdover.
- 1:29:42the same as the other song that was okay too,
- 1:29:45which is that Ford Fairlane one.
- 1:29:47SPEAKER_02: What was that song?
- 1:29:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:29:53So,
- 1:29:53so at that,
- 1:29:54at the point in,
- 1:29:56what was that 91 when primal scream came out?
- 1:29:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:30:00SPEAKER_02: I think that's just before Vince got the boot that that was, you know,
- 1:30:07probably the best motley at that point as far as you know songs
- 1:30:11and performance and
- 1:30:12everything yeah that song was called rock and roll junkie by
- 1:30:17the way the ford
- 1:30:18fairlane one remember that one yeah you know yeah they just i'm
- 1:30:24i'm constantly
- 1:30:25amazed and it just it is weird when you look at all the biggest
- 1:30:29bands their early
- 1:30:31SPEAKER_02: records were so good that it carries them through
- 1:30:37SPEAKER_02: You know, almost a half century of shit.
- 1:30:39SPEAKER_02: Think about it, every one of these bands.
- 1:30:42SPEAKER_02: It's no different than Guns N' Roses.
- 1:30:44SPEAKER_02: That's what I'm saying, all of them.
- 1:30:46SPEAKER_02: Rolling Stones, the who.
- 1:30:47SPEAKER_02: It doesn't matter.
- 1:30:49SPEAKER_02: Guns N' Roses basically tours on appetite for destruction.
- 1:30:53SPEAKER_02: Sure, U2.
- 1:30:55SPEAKER_02: Has U2 had a successful thing since... I don't know, the...
- 1:31:03SPEAKER_02: or something like that.
- 1:31:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:31:05SPEAKER_02: That's, that's probably the last one.
- 1:31:08SPEAKER_02: feeling better with the real thing or whatever.
- 1:31:11SPEAKER_02: Have they had a song that anybody remembers after that?
- 1:31:14SPEAKER_02: Then, you know, Apple forced the download of that crap ass.
- 1:31:21SPEAKER_02: Terrible how to dismantle a bomb or something.
- 1:31:24SPEAKER_02: Onto your phone.
- 1:31:25SPEAKER_02: It looks like some guy giving another guy a blow job on the cover.
- 1:31:29SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:31:30SPEAKER_02: And nobody could figure out how to get it off their phone.
- 1:31:32SPEAKER_02: I know.
- 1:31:33SPEAKER_02: I was just like, get this off my phone.
- 1:31:35SPEAKER_02: God damn it.
- 1:31:37SPEAKER_02: How did this get to my music files?
- 1:31:39SPEAKER_02: Why are you wasting my valuable space?
- 1:31:43Remember back then we were all rocking like eight gig hard
- 1:31:46drives or something too
- 1:31:48SPEAKER_02: on our phones.
- 1:31:49SPEAKER_02: That one album was like a tenth of it.
- 1:31:52SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:31:52SPEAKER_02: It's like I couldn't figure out how to get that off my phone fast enough.
- 1:31:57SPEAKER_02: It's like, get this off my phone.
- 1:31:59SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:32:01i remember deleting it and then it came back because you didn't
- 1:32:04sync it with your
- 1:32:06itunes or whatever like i deleted it directly on my phone and
- 1:32:10like a day later i
- 1:32:11went there it was again on my phone i was like what the fuck
- 1:32:15i'm gonna have to drop
- 1:32:16apple over this right you made me have this crappy youtube
- 1:32:21album on my yeah
- 1:32:25What's funny is if that happened today,
- 1:32:28I don't think I'd even give a shit.
- 1:32:32SPEAKER_02: I just would be like, yeah, I'm just not going to play that.
- 1:32:34SPEAKER_02: You know, I wouldn't care at all.
- 1:32:36SPEAKER_02: Back then it was world war three.
- 1:32:40SPEAKER_02: Back then it was, fuck Apple, these cocks suck.
- 1:32:43SPEAKER_02: How dare they push this music on?
- 1:32:46SPEAKER_02: It was like, who cares?
- 1:32:48SPEAKER_02: The worst for me was I was even sort of a U2 fan.
- 1:32:51SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:32:52SPEAKER_02: So why was I upset about this thing?
- 1:32:55SPEAKER_02: But I was.
- 1:32:56SPEAKER_02: I know I was.
- 1:32:57SPEAKER_02: I was angry.
- 1:32:58SPEAKER_02: I was like, get this shit off my phone.
- 1:33:01SPEAKER_02: You know?
- 1:33:04SPEAKER_02: I mean, my interest in U2 basically ended at Joshua Tree.
- 1:33:11i liked the one after it the octune baby i thought was pretty
- 1:33:15good and i liked what
- 1:33:19zoo zoo ropa was okay it had fly on it which was okay it had
- 1:33:24like one or two but
- 1:33:25after that zoo ropa is where it really started getting artsy
- 1:33:30yeah like they were
- 1:33:31SPEAKER_02: kind of like a
- 1:33:34SPEAKER_02: I'm not a big fan of Irish music,
- 1:33:37which probably explains why I'm not a big fan of Thin Lizzy and
- 1:33:40the bands I'm
- 1:33:41SPEAKER_02: supposed to like as a metalhead,
- 1:33:43SPEAKER_02: but I just don't like that sound.
- 1:33:46SPEAKER_02: I don't know what you call that sound, but that...
- 1:33:49poor man's pub sound is what i guess i'd call it okay and you
- 1:33:54too was like the one
- 1:33:56band that i sort of was into for for a while but man once bono
- 1:34:02got full of bono it
- 1:34:03SPEAKER_02: was over it was just like i can't stand this fucking guy anymore
- 1:34:08SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 1:34:08SPEAKER_02: they might even still have good songs now,
- 1:34:11SPEAKER_02: but I just don't listen to the records at all because I can't stand Bono.
- 1:34:15SPEAKER_02: I just can't stand even looking at him with his smug.
- 1:34:18SPEAKER_02: You are the problem with using too much oil and gas.
- 1:34:22SPEAKER_02: Now let me get on my private plane and fly around the world.
- 1:34:25SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:34:26SPEAKER_02: Fuck you, Bono.
- 1:34:28SPEAKER_02: Dickhead.

- 1:38:47SPEAKER_02: And then the rest of the seating,
- 1:38:50SPEAKER_02: all the tickets out there,
- 1:38:51and there's plenty of tickets available in that first section
- 1:38:56of seating right up
- 1:38:59SPEAKER_02: by the stage.
- 1:39:00SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
- 1:39:02SPEAKER_02: It looks like they all go for the same price at $244.50.
- 1:39:05SPEAKER_02: Oh.
- 1:39:05SPEAKER_02: It's a steal at any price.
- 1:39:05SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
- 1:39:14SPEAKER_02: So to move up about 10 to 15 seats will cost you almost double.
- 1:39:18SPEAKER_02: 30 feet will cost you $200.
- 1:39:24$244 to sit in that second section,
- 1:39:26but $409 to sit up right by the stage.
- 1:39:30SPEAKER_02: Oh, boy.
- 1:39:32SPEAKER_02: That is brutal.
- 1:39:33Let me put this on the screen so people can see that we're not
- 1:39:37just talking shit here.
- 1:39:41SPEAKER_02: So here's the $100 ones in Section 32.
- 1:39:45SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:39:45SPEAKER_02: And then you said, what, $24?
- 1:39:46SPEAKER_02: Yeah, $244.
- 1:39:47SPEAKER_02: $244.
- 1:39:47SPEAKER_02: And then $409.30.
- 1:39:48SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:39:48SPEAKER_02: Well, you could sit on the sides in the front for only $244.
- 1:39:53SPEAKER_02: Look at that.
- 1:39:54SPEAKER_02: That's how many feet from here?
- 1:39:57SPEAKER_02: Six?
- 1:40:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:40:07SPEAKER_02: Six feet away, you can save $200.
- 1:40:12SPEAKER_02: It's still not worth $244.
- 1:40:16SPEAKER_02: $244 is a lot for a concert ticket.
- 1:40:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and that's just for you.
- 1:40:20SPEAKER_02: Just one.
- 1:40:21SPEAKER_02: So if you end up taking your check, that's $500.
- 1:40:23SPEAKER_02: That's $500 plus.
- 1:40:27SPEAKER_02: Then you got drinks and parking and all that other shit.
- 1:40:30SPEAKER_02: Well, at least at Blossom, you don't have to pay to park.
- 1:40:33SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:40:34SPEAKER_02: Of course,
- 1:40:34SPEAKER_02: you got to walk six miles to get in from the parking lot,
- 1:40:37SPEAKER_02: but at least you don't have to park.
- 1:40:40So if you and your chick want to go see Motley Crue and you

- 1:49:09SPEAKER_03: Let's see.
- 1:49:11SPEAKER_03: Let's go back about 20 years.
- 1:49:13SPEAKER_03: We used to work together.
- 1:49:15SPEAKER_02: Do what?
- 1:49:16SPEAKER_02: I said, let's go back about 20 years ago, maybe 30 years ago.
- 1:49:21SPEAKER_02: We used to work together at the high school radio station.
- 1:49:23SPEAKER_02: Oh, is this John?
- 1:49:25SPEAKER_02: It is.
- 1:49:26SPEAKER_02: Hey, what's up, John?
- 1:49:28SPEAKER_02: Not much.
- 1:49:28SPEAKER_02: I'm on the call and complain about it.
- 1:49:30SPEAKER_02: She thinks she has a few minutes.
- 1:49:32SPEAKER_02: Oh, you want to complain?
- 1:49:33SPEAKER_02: Did you check in with the complaint department?
- 1:49:37SPEAKER_02: He did.
- 1:49:37SPEAKER_02: That was me.
- 1:49:38SPEAKER_02: I did.
- 1:49:38SPEAKER_02: I talked to Chris a few days ago via text messaging.
- 1:49:41SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:49:42SPEAKER_03: And I said,
- 1:49:43SPEAKER_03: I've had a few things on my chest over the last couple of years,
- 1:49:47SPEAKER_03: and I think I'm probably ready to get it all set.
- 1:49:49SPEAKER_02: You've allowed something to fester for years?
- 1:49:52SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 1:49:54SPEAKER_03: I have,
- 1:49:54SPEAKER_03: and I always try to play the calm,
- 1:49:56SPEAKER_03: cool,
- 1:49:57SPEAKER_03: collected,
- 1:49:57SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:49:59SPEAKER_03: and not get upset over stuff that I can't control,
- 1:50:02but it just has gotten to the point where I just can't fucking
- 1:50:05handle it anymore.
- 1:50:06SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:50:07SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:50:08SPEAKER_02: Well, unleash, John.
- 1:50:09SPEAKER_02: Unleash.
- 1:50:11SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 1:50:11SPEAKER_02: My first issue that I have is,
- 1:50:13SPEAKER_03: since you guys have talked about ticket prices,
- 1:50:17SPEAKER_03: is actual contract ticket prices.
- 1:50:19SPEAKER_03: Now, I get, and I understand inflation, but
- 1:50:21SPEAKER_03: I understand all that good jazz and I understand that,
- 1:50:24SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:50:25SPEAKER_03: cost of production of shows and this,
- 1:50:27SPEAKER_03: that,
- 1:50:28SPEAKER_03: and the third,
- 1:50:28SPEAKER_03: so prices go up or whatever.
- 1:50:31SPEAKER_03: So,
- 1:50:31SPEAKER_03: um,
- 1:50:32SPEAKER_03: a friend of mine wanted to take his son to see,
- 1:50:35SPEAKER_03: um,
- 1:50:35SPEAKER_03: his first concert,
- 1:50:36SPEAKER_03: which was nine inch nails.
- 1:50:38SPEAKER_03: Um, this past summer, I think it was that rocket mortgage.
- 1:50:42SPEAKER_03: I think it was called.
- 1:50:43SPEAKER_03: So anyways, um,
- 1:50:48SPEAKER_03: the tickets that he was looking at were like $300 a pop.
- 1:50:52SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:50:53SPEAKER_03: And I'm like,
- 1:50:54I can remember going to Blossom and paying like $20 for four
- 1:50:59tickets to send Milan.
- 1:51:01SPEAKER_03: I'm like, how do we go from like that to $300 a ticket?
- 1:51:04So I told myself in all the years that I've been in the music
- 1:51:08industry that I would
- 1:51:09SPEAKER_03: never be that guy that would call somebody that I know and say,
- 1:51:13SPEAKER_03: hey,
- 1:51:14SPEAKER_03: I need a favor from you.
- 1:51:17SPEAKER_03: So I ended up doing that.
- 1:51:18SPEAKER_03: I called a friend of mine.
- 1:51:19SPEAKER_03: I said, hey, he wants to take his son to see his first concert.
- 1:51:22SPEAKER_03: Is there any way that you can hook them up with tickets?
- 1:51:25SPEAKER_03: I'm not asking you to have them front row or anything like that.
- 1:51:29Just something where they both can sit down and enjoy the show
- 1:51:32together,
- 1:51:32right?
- 1:51:33SPEAKER_03: So yeah, I'll take care of that, no problem.
- 1:51:35SPEAKER_03: The tickets were still like $100 a pop.
- 1:51:40SPEAKER_03: I don't understand how they expect fans to go to all these shows
- 1:51:46and you know they're hundreds and hundreds of dollars you know
- 1:51:50a ticket yeah and
- 1:51:52then you got to include parking and then you can get food and
- 1:51:55before you know
- 1:51:56you're spending like a thousand dollars before the night's
- 1:51:58running over yeah a
- 1:52:00grand a grand to go see two hours worth of band you know and
- 1:52:06and i've always
- 1:52:06enjoyed going to see you know local fans play before i go see
- 1:52:10national acts play
- 1:52:12And for one of the main reasons is because you could spend 20
- 1:52:15bucks and go see a
- 1:52:16SPEAKER_03: local band play.
- 1:52:17SPEAKER_03: And you know that band is getting that 20 bucks for the most part.
- 1:52:20SPEAKER_03: You know where the $300 tickets, you don't know where that money's going.
- 1:52:24SPEAKER_03: You know it's going to the promoter.
- 1:52:26SPEAKER_03: You know it's going this way and that way and blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 1:52:30SPEAKER_03: But it's like $300 a ticket is just outrageous.
- 1:52:32Like a friend of mine wanted to take their daughter to go see
- 1:52:35Taylor Swift.
- 1:52:36SPEAKER_03: She was like, oh, I bet your tickets are pretty cheap.
- 1:52:38SPEAKER_03: And I was like, yeah, right.
- 1:52:43So now my next one I want to have a little gripe book is the
- 1:52:50Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 1:52:53I have for years defended the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for
- 1:52:58including rap artists,
- 1:53:00SPEAKER_03: anybody but rock and roll artists into the Hall of Fame.
- 1:53:03SPEAKER_03: If they deserve to be in the Hall of Fame,
- 1:53:05SPEAKER_03: they should be in the Hall of Fame.
- 1:53:08SPEAKER_03: My issue is,
- 1:53:09SPEAKER_03: and I'm not even a big fan of this band,
- 1:53:11SPEAKER_03: how the fuck does somebody like LL Cool J or Eminem,
- 1:53:15SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:53:16SPEAKER_03: get into the Rock of the Hall of Fame before Iron Maning does?
- 1:53:21SPEAKER_02: Well, you can thank Rolling Stone and Jan Winter for that.
- 1:53:26SPEAKER_02: It's a politically correct thing.
- 1:53:32So if you're not a Rolling Stone darling or you're not friends
- 1:53:37with the...
- 1:53:38SPEAKER_02: I know this Jan,
- 1:53:39SPEAKER_02: I think he's out of it now,
- 1:53:41SPEAKER_02: but that Jan Wenner,
- 1:53:42SPEAKER_02: he more or less called the shots for all that.
- 1:53:47SPEAKER_02: I mean, look at the band Chicago.
- 1:53:49It took them forever to get in,
- 1:53:51and they only got in as they were voted in by the fans.
- 1:53:58SPEAKER_03: Well, they should have been in no matter what.
- 1:53:59SPEAKER_03: There's a certain band that should just automatically get in.
- 1:54:04SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and look at what happened to Judas Priest.
- 1:54:07SPEAKER_02: They're not...
- 1:54:08SPEAKER_02: Was that the one, Chris?
- 1:54:10SPEAKER_02: They're in, but they got in on like the fan vote or something.
- 1:54:14SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they got in as a... It wasn't, they didn't get in for merit.
- 1:54:20SPEAKER_02: They got in because the fans voted for them or something.
- 1:54:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah, something to that effect.
- 1:54:24SPEAKER_02: And it's like, that's not right.
- 1:54:27SPEAKER_03: Yeah,
- 1:54:27SPEAKER_03: and I'm a huge Soundgarden fan,
- 1:54:29SPEAKER_03: but I'm like,
- 1:54:30SPEAKER_03: how does Soundgarden get in before Iron Man does?
- 1:54:33SPEAKER_03: And again, I'm not a huge Iron Man fan.
- 1:54:36SPEAKER_03: But you've got to give credit where credit is due.
- 1:54:38SPEAKER_03: They deserve to be in.
- 1:54:39SPEAKER_03: So I've always said, now I don't defend the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 1:54:43SPEAKER_03: Now I say, just take the Rock and Roll part of it out.
- 1:54:46SPEAKER_03: Just put in Hall of Fame.
- 1:54:49SPEAKER_02: Cutting edge, John.
- 1:54:50SPEAKER_02: Cutting edge.
- 1:54:52SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry if you're thinking logically here.
- 1:54:56It just should be the Music Hall of Fame if they're just going
- 1:54:59to have everybody
- 1:55:00SPEAKER_02: and their brother in there.
- 1:55:01SPEAKER_02: It should just be pushed into the league and forgotten about.
- 1:55:05SPEAKER_03: It's no different than,
- 1:55:07SPEAKER_03: like,
- 1:55:07SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:55:07SPEAKER_03: back in the days when you would go to a record store in the mall.
- 1:55:10SPEAKER_03: Yes, I'm showing my age.
- 1:55:12SPEAKER_03: But, you know, they would have all the junior sections or whatever.
- 1:55:15And I'm like,
- 1:55:16well,
- 1:55:16you know,
- 1:55:17Chris might think this band is,
- 1:55:18you know,
- 1:55:19rock and roll.
- 1:55:20SPEAKER_03: I might think they're metal.
- 1:55:21SPEAKER_03: You know, Neely might think they're whatever, you know.
- 1:55:24SPEAKER_03: Why can't we just put them all in alphabetical order?
- 1:55:26SPEAKER_03: Here's the A section.
- 1:55:27SPEAKER_03: Here's the B section.
- 1:55:28SPEAKER_03: Here's the C section.
- 1:55:29SPEAKER_03: Go into the store and say, hey, I want the Cinderella's newest album.
- 1:55:34SPEAKER_03: Okay,
- 1:55:34SPEAKER_03: then I can just go on to the C-section,
- 1:55:36SPEAKER_03: grab Cinderella,
- 1:55:37SPEAKER_03: go and pay for it,
- 1:55:38SPEAKER_03: get the heck out of the store,
- 1:55:39SPEAKER_03: and get done and over with.
- 1:55:40SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 1:55:41SPEAKER_03: instead of going,
- 1:55:41SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:55:42SPEAKER_03: what album's in the pop section,
- 1:55:44SPEAKER_03: what album's in the,
- 1:55:45SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:55:45SPEAKER_03: rock section,
- 1:55:46SPEAKER_03: what album's in this section.
- 1:55:48SPEAKER_03: And it's like, I just get tired and frustrated with that.
- 1:55:51SPEAKER_03: Like,
- 1:55:51SPEAKER_03: just get rid of it,
- 1:55:52SPEAKER_03: put it all in one,
- 1:55:53SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:55:53SPEAKER_03: alphabetical order,
- 1:55:54SPEAKER_03: and just go from there.
- 1:55:57SPEAKER_03: And then my last one is, since you mentioned this,
- 1:56:01is,
- 1:56:01um,
- 1:56:02these magazine publications like,
- 1:56:05um,
- 1:56:06you know,
- 1:56:07um,
- 1:56:07like,
- 1:56:08um,
- 1:56:08what was it?
- 1:56:10SPEAKER_03: So they'll put out like their top,
- 1:56:12SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:56:12SPEAKER_03: 50 artists or slash,
- 1:56:14SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:56:14SPEAKER_03: 50 bands or the top drummers or top guitar players and blah,
- 1:56:19SPEAKER_03: blah,
- 1:56:19SPEAKER_03: blah,
- 1:56:19SPEAKER_03: blah.
- 1:56:20SPEAKER_03: Why is Prince never mentioned in any of these publications?
- 1:56:26SPEAKER_03: Like, I don't care if you like Prince or not.
- 1:56:29SPEAKER_03: In my opinion, um,
- 1:56:31SPEAKER_03: Prince is probably one of the greatest musicians of my lifetime.
- 1:56:36SPEAKER_03: Especially as a guitar player.
- 1:56:39SPEAKER_02: I would put him top ten anyway, guitar players, if not top five.
- 1:56:43SPEAKER_02: He's one of the best ever.
- 1:56:44SPEAKER_03: I mean, how does a band Oasis get listed as...
- 1:56:49in the top 15 of all time bad but like prince isn't even in the
- 1:56:53top 50 because
- 1:56:54prince didn't stay to one style prince did rock he did r&b did
- 1:56:59hip-hop and prince
- 1:57:00also was anti anti-establishment i mean the whole changing his
- 1:57:05name to the artist
- 1:57:07formerly known as was in dispute with the industry yeah he's he
- 1:57:12was anti-corporate
- 1:57:13SPEAKER_03: yeah so he's also the one that was like behind the whole like
- 1:57:18They wanted to sell,
- 1:57:19like,
- 1:57:19one of his albums at $9.99 or something like that.
- 1:57:22SPEAKER_03: He was like, you know, F that.
- 1:57:24SPEAKER_03: We're not doing that.
- 1:57:24SPEAKER_03: I'm not going to release it if you're going to.
- 1:57:27SPEAKER_03: Or am I taking this from other artists?
- 1:57:29SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:57:30SPEAKER_03: So, I don't know.
- 1:57:32Those are just a couple of things that I've had in my mind for
- 1:57:35the last couple of years.
- 1:57:36And I forget that's no better place to get it off my chest than
- 1:57:39your guys' show.

- 2:01:55early 90s.
- 2:01:57And I only remember this because it's going to show what a
- 2:02:00fucking pussy whip fag I was.

- 2:02:11SPEAKER_02: And what do you think drove you to do that?
- 2:02:14SPEAKER_02: I know it did.
- 2:02:15SPEAKER_02: A, I was a huge fan of the Arnold movies in the late 80s and 90s.
- 2:02:20SPEAKER_02: So you thought this was going to be a good Arnold movie?
- 2:02:23SPEAKER_02: I thought it was going to be good.
- 2:02:24SPEAKER_02: Plus the soundtrack.
- 2:02:27SPEAKER_02: The soundtrack was great.
- 2:02:48SPEAKER_02: From the Bill and Ted Bogus Journey soundtrack.

- 2:06:36SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:06:38SPEAKER_02: And because you got bonus tracks on there that these bands,
- 2:06:42SPEAKER_02: like we just said,

- 2:06:45SPEAKER_02: Yeah, Megadeth, Faith No More, everybody was doing it.
- 2:06:48SPEAKER_02: They were all contributing, and you wouldn't get that song anywhere else.
- 2:06:54SPEAKER_02: They didn't typically add it to their album or anything like that.
- 2:06:58SPEAKER_02: It was just on the soundtrack.
- 2:06:59SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:07:00So if you were one of those purists who had to have everything,

- 2:21:01SPEAKER_02: You've got to think about the movie, too.
- 2:21:02SPEAKER_02: None of those movies were that big.
- 2:21:07SPEAKER_02: I don't know those two movies that you read.
- 2:21:09SPEAKER_02: I think those are Indian movies.
- 2:21:13SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but I'm sure they were big movies.
- 2:21:16SPEAKER_02: Every other movie you listed was a huge movie.
- 2:21:18SPEAKER_02: It was like a number one summer blockbuster movie.
- 2:21:24SPEAKER_02: Well, this has been fun.

- 2:22:22SPEAKER_02: I don't get this.
- 2:22:23SPEAKER_02: I don't get this list at all.
- 2:22:25SPEAKER_02: So anyway, just thought I'd bring that up.
- 2:22:29SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 2:22:30SPEAKER_02: Interesting to say the least.
- 2:22:34Yeah,
- 2:22:34there's all kinds of different soundtracks out there
- 2:22:37category-wise.
- 2:22:38SPEAKER_02: The best soul movie soundtrack, top 75 movie songs of all time.
- 2:22:44SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 2:22:45SPEAKER_02: You know, stuff like that.
- 2:22:46SPEAKER_02: I'm sure a bunch of that is a bunch of crap we don't care about.
- 2:22:49SPEAKER_02: I'm sure.
- 2:22:50It'll all be like that,
- 2:22:51you know,
- 2:22:53Early Morning Requiem by David Elfman or something,
- 2:22:57you know.
- 2:22:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:22:58SPEAKER_02: Some bullshit like that.
- 2:22:59SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:23:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's a good one, too.
- 2:23:03SPEAKER_02: Beverly Hills Cop.
- 2:23:04SPEAKER_02: That had a good soundtrack, too.
- 2:23:06SPEAKER_02: I wonder how that didn't even sell 15.
- 2:23:09SPEAKER_02: Had that big Bob Seger hit on it.
- 2:23:11SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:23:11SPEAKER_02: Shake down, break down, shake down.
- 2:23:14SPEAKER_02: I think that was his last hit, wasn't it?
- 2:23:18SPEAKER_02: I think so.
- 2:23:20SPEAKER_02: Either that or Like a Rock.
- 2:23:22SPEAKER_02: Like a Rock, I think.
- 2:23:24SPEAKER_02: It's one of those two.
- 2:23:28SPEAKER_02: God, are we old?
- 2:23:32But you notice where these soundtracks fall,
- 2:23:35it seemed to end in the,
- 2:23:37in the nineties.
- 2:23:41SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:23:41SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:23:41SPEAKER_02: There's none now.
- 2:23:42SPEAKER_02: Now,
- 2:23:44SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:23:46you would think there'd be more with everybody just unloading
- 2:23:49singles now,
- 2:23:50SPEAKER_02: instead of,
- 2:23:51SPEAKER_02: instead of albums,
- 2:23:52SPEAKER_02: you would think you might see a,
- 2:23:54SPEAKER_02: and especially with more content.
- 2:23:57know there's so much more content being created for video and
- 2:24:01tv movies and tv you
- 2:24:03would think they'd come back with the soundtracks just to make
- 2:24:06some more money
- 2:24:07SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but I just don't think people will buy them.
- 2:24:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's true, too.
- 2:24:14SPEAKER_02: Again,
- 2:24:15we didn't have streaming music services to where you can just
- 2:24:18pick and choose
- 2:24:19SPEAKER_02: whatever song you want.
- 2:24:20True,
- 2:24:21because if we'd had streaming,
- 2:24:22none of these would have sold even one million copies.
- 2:24:25SPEAKER_02: You're right.
- 2:24:26So it's just that you bought that compilation and it had a
- 2:24:30whole selection of tunes on there.

- 2:27:21SPEAKER_02: And look, one, two, three, six hits.
- 2:27:25SPEAKER_02: Six songs were hits off that.
- 2:27:28SPEAKER_02: That was a big one.
- 2:27:28SPEAKER_02: You know what I remember most about that movie?
- 2:27:34SPEAKER_02: How crappy the movie was.
- 2:27:37Dude,
- 2:27:37I remember that movie more than just about anything from the
- 2:27:42early 90s.
- 2:27:44And I only remember this because it's going to show what a
- 2:27:47fucking pussy whip fag I was.
- 2:27:51SPEAKER_02: I snuck out of a day's work to go see this movie.
- 2:27:58SPEAKER_02: And what do you think drove you to do that?
- 2:28:01SPEAKER_02: I know it did.
- 2:28:02SPEAKER_02: A, I was a huge fan of the Arnold movies in the late 80s and 90s.
- 2:28:07SPEAKER_02: So you thought this was going to be a good Arnold movie?
- 2:28:10SPEAKER_02: I thought it was going to be good.
- 2:28:11SPEAKER_02: Plus the soundtrack.
- 2:28:14SPEAKER_02: The soundtrack was great.
- 2:28:16SPEAKER_02: So I was like, this is like the bands that I like.
- 2:28:20SPEAKER_02: It's kind of rock and roll.
- 2:28:22SPEAKER_02: It's going to be Arnold.
- 2:28:23SPEAKER_02: I like the premise.
- 2:28:24SPEAKER_02: I thought it looked cool.
- 2:28:27SPEAKER_02: That movie sucked so bad.
- 2:28:30SPEAKER_02: Did you ever see this movie, Last Action Hero?
- 2:28:32SPEAKER_02: It's fucking terrible.
- 2:28:34SPEAKER_02: It might be the worst movie Arnold Schwarzenegger did.
- 2:28:40SPEAKER_02: It was kind of sticky.
- 2:28:43SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 2:28:44SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:28:46And it just was such a letdown because the movie before it was
- 2:28:52Terminator 2.
- 2:28:55So going from Terminator 2 to The Last Action Hero,
- 2:28:58what a letdown that was.
- 2:29:01You know,
- 2:29:01from Terminator 2 with that cop that would just morph and turn
- 2:29:05into swords and shit.
- 2:29:07SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:29:08SPEAKER_02: To jumping in and out.
- 2:29:11SPEAKER_02: Last Action Hero was just an expensive version of Shocker.
- 2:29:16instead of traveling through the wall he was traveling through
- 2:29:19the movies but it
- 2:29:21was the same movie awful there's people are putting up boy you

- 2:30:25SPEAKER_02: Right, right.
- 2:30:26SPEAKER_02: And I wanted to see Motley,
- 2:30:28SPEAKER_02: I was such a fan of Motley at the time,
- 2:30:30SPEAKER_02: that I went to see the Ford Fairlane movie.
- 2:30:33SPEAKER_02: I was a fan of Dice, obviously, so...

- 2:32:39SPEAKER_02: The kids were not that big of an anchor to me.

- 2:34:59SPEAKER_02: Of course, Don came out this week to clarify his retirement comment.
- 2:35:05SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 2:35:06SPEAKER_02: And his comment is, what I meant was we're going to slow down.
- 2:35:11SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:35:13SPEAKER_02: not going to read all this stuff.
- 2:35:14SPEAKER_02: It talks about that they want to do an EP and all this stuff.
- 2:35:19SPEAKER_02: Don has no idea, right?
- 2:35:22SPEAKER_02: Let's just call it what it is.
- 2:35:23SPEAKER_02: He has no idea.
- 2:35:25He's never,
- 2:35:26if,
- 2:35:27if I was betting,
- 2:35:28if you were betting,
- 2:35:29yeah,
- 2:35:31would you bet he never retires?
- 2:35:33SPEAKER_02: He literally dies either on stage or on his way to or from a stage.
- 2:35:38Well,
- 2:35:39I think what,
- 2:35:40I think what will sideline Don,
- 2:35:42if anything does is his mobility,
- 2:35:46right?
- 2:35:48and you know like like last night you know he he he had well it
- 2:35:55was it was just a
- 2:35:56bad travel day like he he flew out of he flew out of uh santa
- 2:36:01fe to dallas on
- 2:36:03thursday okay and he was supposed to catch a connector in
- 2:36:07dallas to st louis well
- 2:36:11SPEAKER_02: his he was supposed to catch his connector like it
- 2:36:15SPEAKER_02: I don't know, it was like 2, 2.30 in the afternoon.
- 2:36:18SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:36:18SPEAKER_02: Well, then they bumped it to 4.30.
- 2:36:21SPEAKER_02: Then they bumped it to 6.30.
- 2:36:23SPEAKER_02: Then they bumped it to 8.30, and then they canceled it.
- 2:36:27SPEAKER_02: So he basically sat at the airport for about 10 hours.
- 2:36:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah, in those very comfortable seats there at the airport.
- 2:36:35SPEAKER_02: Only to have his flight canceled.
- 2:36:37SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:36:38SPEAKER_02: And the only way...
- 2:36:41they were able to rebook his flight he was at dallas fort worth
- 2:36:46he had to go to
- 2:36:46dallas love field the next morning and get a flight at 6 a.m
- 2:36:52out of there so he had
- 2:36:54to go to a totally different airport right to catch a flight
- 2:36:57out of dallas to st
- 2:36:59SPEAKER_02: louis and and that was a 6 a.m flight so he had to leave the airport
- 2:37:07SPEAKER_02: get an Uber,
- 2:37:08SPEAKER_02: go to a hotel close to Dallas Love Field,
- 2:37:12SPEAKER_02: and then be there by like 5 in the morning or 4.30.
- 2:37:16SPEAKER_02: to catch that six o'clock flight and get into St.
- 2:37:19SPEAKER_02: Louis by, uh, what was that?
- 2:37:22SPEAKER_02: Seven 30.
- 2:37:23SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 2:37:24SPEAKER_02: And he was solo.
- 2:37:25SPEAKER_02: Like he's by himself.
- 2:37:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:37:27SPEAKER_02: He was by himself.
- 2:37:28SPEAKER_02: So he didn't have anybody to help him with his suitcases or any shit.
- 2:37:32SPEAKER_02: Oh boy.
- 2:37:33SPEAKER_02: And he's not really wired for that anymore.
- 2:37:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:37:35SPEAKER_02: So, so he, he was, uh, you know, he was, uh,
- 2:37:42cranky no he was he was uh dealing with a backache you know you
- 2:37:49know and so by the
- 2:37:50time he hit the stage even though you know he had said that his
- 2:37:53back was bothering
- 2:37:54SPEAKER_02: him
- 2:37:55SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:37:55SPEAKER_02: we had gotten him some Advil and things,
- 2:37:57SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:37:58SPEAKER_02: to try to,
- 2:37:59SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:37:59SPEAKER_02: relieve the pain,
- 2:38:01SPEAKER_02: but it just got so bad while he was on stage.
- 2:38:04SPEAKER_02: He had to,
- 2:38:05SPEAKER_02: he had to take,
- 2:38:05SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:38:06SPEAKER_02: sit and sit on a bar stool a couple of times through the set,
- 2:38:10SPEAKER_02: which he hates,
- 2:38:11SPEAKER_02: which he hates.
- 2:38:13SPEAKER_02: But,
- 2:38:13SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 2:38:14SPEAKER_02: the fans didn't seem to mind because after the show and this morning,
- 2:38:18SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:38:19SPEAKER_02: we were out in the main,
- 2:38:21SPEAKER_02: um,
- 2:38:21SPEAKER_02: casino,
- 2:38:23SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 2:38:25restaurant area he and i before he took off to go home this
- 2:38:29morning and so many
- 2:38:30fans came up to say hello and take a picture and said they
- 2:38:34loved the show and it
- 2:38:36didn't bother them at all that he had to take a you know take a
- 2:38:40seat for a few
- 2:38:41minutes to rest his back but getting back to the thing is the
- 2:38:46only thing in my
- 2:38:47opinion that's gonna sideline don is is mobility okay if he
- 2:38:52were to become
- 2:38:54you know uh unable to to walk or something like that you know
- 2:38:59that would probably
- 2:39:00be the end of it but as far as the performing is concerned he
- 2:39:04still loves to
- 2:39:04perform you know he still likes to get out there and you know
- 2:39:08so he's like well you
- 2:39:09know maybe i'll just book like one or two shows every every
- 2:39:13month or every other
- 2:39:14SPEAKER_02: month or something and
- 2:39:16Do a dozen shows or 20 shows a year and still get out there,
- 2:39:21but give me a reason to go out.
- 2:39:25SPEAKER_02: Do you think he ever moves back to L.A.
- 2:39:27and just finds himself like a little hotspot club that's his
- 2:39:32that just does
- 2:39:32SPEAKER_02: acoustic things every now and again?
- 2:39:35SPEAKER_02: It's hard to say.
- 2:39:37SPEAKER_02: It's hard to say.
- 2:39:38SPEAKER_02: You would think that would be,
- 2:39:39SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:39:39at this point with the voice and the can't play guitar and
- 2:39:43everything else,
- 2:39:43SPEAKER_02: you would think he'd be looking to find something a bit easier to do.
- 2:39:48SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:39:50You know,
- 2:39:51and I'm not even saying that the performance part is hard to
- 2:39:53do.
- 2:39:54I mean,
- 2:39:54it is for him with his back and his hand and all the other
- 2:39:57shit,
- 2:39:58but
- 2:40:01I think what you're describing is probably way more of an issue
- 2:40:04to him than the
- 2:40:04SPEAKER_02: performance,
- 2:40:06SPEAKER_02: which is the travel.
- 2:40:08SPEAKER_02: I'm sure he dreads on a Wednesday if he's flying Thursday.
- 2:40:13SPEAKER_02: I'm sure he's thinking about it all day Wednesday.
- 2:40:15SPEAKER_02: I got to get on this fucking plane.
- 2:40:17SPEAKER_02: It's going to suck.
- 2:40:18right you know i'm gonna be uncomfortable my back's gonna hurt
- 2:40:21my fucking hand is
- 2:40:22all fucked up i'm sure even even guys who are you know
- 2:40:27seemingly healthy like uh
- 2:40:29like a sammy hagar complains about the travel sure you know and
- 2:40:34which is why he you
- 2:40:36SPEAKER_02: know was
- 2:40:37seemingly pretty excited about that residency in las vegas you
- 2:40:41know because they
- 2:40:42didn't have to travel and go from show to show you know but as
- 2:40:48far as you know don
- 2:40:49is concerned you know he still wants to do a handful of shows a
- 2:40:53year okay and that
- 2:40:55that'll scratch that itch to to get out and perform but without
- 2:41:00some rigorous you
- 2:41:02SPEAKER_02: know touring schedule mm-hmm
- 2:41:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah,
- 2:41:07SPEAKER_02: I hope he does figure out something that's a little less...
- 2:41:10SPEAKER_02: Because he just seems...
- 2:41:12SPEAKER_02: And again,
- 2:41:13SPEAKER_02: this is the press view.
- 2:41:14SPEAKER_02: I mean, you see him.
- 2:41:16SPEAKER_02: He seems pretty down.
- 2:41:18SPEAKER_02: Every interview I see with him, he seems pretty... Which I get, too.
- 2:41:22SPEAKER_02: He hates doing interviews, too.
- 2:41:23SPEAKER_02: Who doesn't?
- 2:41:24SPEAKER_02: But...
- 2:41:26SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 2:41:26SPEAKER_02: I mean,
- 2:41:27SPEAKER_02: all these guys that have been doing it 40 years,
- 2:41:28SPEAKER_02: they fucking hate doing interviews.
- 2:41:30SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:41:31SPEAKER_02: They all hate it because it's just the same old dumb shit.
- 2:41:34SPEAKER_02: You know, it's...
- 2:41:3616 guys in a row all asking the same 10 questions dude tell me
- 2:41:41about when you were
- 2:41:42fucking on top of the world in 1983 you know that's that's
- 2:41:47that's all these guys
- 2:41:48ever ask yeah one or two things about whatever's going on now
- 2:41:52and then i just want
- 2:41:53to take you back on you know tell me a little bit about the
- 2:41:56time between tooth and
- 2:41:58SPEAKER_02: nail and under lock and key what was going on
- 2:42:01Yeah,
- 2:42:02well,
- 2:42:03they're always so interested in the relationship between Don
- 2:42:07and George.
- 2:42:07SPEAKER_02: Don and George, of course.
- 2:42:08SPEAKER_02: And that's all they ever ask about is they just ask about the question.
- 2:42:13SPEAKER_02: It's like, well, what was really going on between you two?
- 2:42:15SPEAKER_02: How come you two hated each other?
- 2:42:17SPEAKER_02: How come this?
- 2:42:18SPEAKER_02: It's all history.
- 2:42:21SPEAKER_02: Go look it up yourself.
- 2:42:23SPEAKER_02: It's out there.
- 2:42:23SPEAKER_02: And neither one of them can win if they answer it.
- 2:42:28yeah because if they answer it it always turns it comes out in
- 2:42:32the put in the press
- 2:42:34as don dock and said george lynch is a lazy performer right and
- 2:42:39what he might have
- 2:42:40said was back in 1983 when i first met george lynch he was a
- 2:42:45lazy performer and i
- 2:42:46didn't like that and i told him this one time step it up but
- 2:42:52they won't report that
- 2:42:53SPEAKER_02: instead it'll be a clickbait news thing
- 2:42:56SPEAKER_02: Don Dockin says George Lynch, lazy performer.
- 2:42:59SPEAKER_02: Right, of course.
- 2:43:00SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 2:43:00SPEAKER_02: and it'll go through the media spin,
- 2:43:02SPEAKER_02: and next thing you know,
- 2:43:04SPEAKER_02: Don's beating up people's mothers and stuff again.
- 2:43:08SPEAKER_02: You know, it's so stupid.
- 2:43:09SPEAKER_02: The media's fucking dumb.
- 2:43:11SPEAKER_02: I know.
- 2:43:12SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 2:43:12SPEAKER_02: I see those two backstage,
- 2:43:15SPEAKER_02: and obviously they share a stage when Lynch is there to perform,
- 2:43:20SPEAKER_02: which he was last night.
- 2:43:21SPEAKER_02: He did his Lynch Mob show.
- 2:43:24opening for docking and then george came on and did the last
- 2:43:28three songs and you
- 2:43:29know they they sit there in the in the uh break room or the
- 2:43:34break room the the
- 2:43:35backstage area the green room and they'll sit there chatting up
- 2:43:39a storm so it's
- 2:43:41it's not this this hate animosity thing you know they they in
- 2:43:46fact george literally
- 2:43:48SPEAKER_02: lives 30 minutes from dawn's house in new mexico
- 2:43:52SPEAKER_02: Do they visit each other?
- 2:43:53SPEAKER_02: Well, that's the thing.
- 2:43:54SPEAKER_02: He's been by George.
- 2:43:56SPEAKER_02: And Don has invited George.
- 2:43:59SPEAKER_02: He says, well, next time you come down through the area, stop by.
- 2:44:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:44:05you know so yeah it is a i mean i guess because they were do
- 2:44:13you think it's because
- 2:44:14they were the most famous or biggest band at the time that just
- 2:44:18didn't like each
- 2:44:19other they imploded when they were right at their peak too

- 2:46:45SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:46:46And Dieter Dirks,
- 2:46:48the producer for the Scorpions,
- 2:46:50just happened to be in L.A.
- 2:46:52SPEAKER_02: and he came to the Whiskey and he was checking out Don singing.
- 2:46:57SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 2:46:58And after the show was over,
- 2:47:00Dieter came up to Don and said that he goes...
- 2:47:04SPEAKER_02: he said, I like your, I like your singing.
- 2:47:06SPEAKER_02: And he says, and he says, Oh, you like my band?

- 2:47:18record and,
- 2:47:19uh,
- 2:47:21klaus was having some vocals that vocal issues okay and because
- 2:47:25don has that same
- 2:47:28vibrato you know uh he asked him if he would come to germany
- 2:47:33and do backup backing
- 2:47:35tracks okay on the blackout record sure which is how he ended
- 2:47:40up going to germany
- 2:47:41SPEAKER_02: they paid for him to go to germany and do the backup vocals and stuff
- 2:47:46SPEAKER_02: And in exchange for his time and stuff, they gave him studio time.
- 2:47:52SPEAKER_02: And he recorded that record that ended up coming out on Carrera Records.
- 2:47:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:47:59SPEAKER_02: You know, back in the streets.
- 2:48:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah.

- 2:48:05but he didn't have a band,
- 2:48:07you know,
- 2:48:07at the time.
- 2:48:08SPEAKER_02: So that's,

- 2:48:17SPEAKER_02: It was just Don docking.
- 2:48:19SPEAKER_02: Right.

- 2:48:27him at the whiskey
- 2:48:28performing and invited them to come do that sure and i mean i
- 2:48:35just remember back in
- 2:48:36the day they they always were docking was always that band that
- 2:48:41was on the good
- 2:48:42SPEAKER_02: tours

- 2:49:41SPEAKER_02: I want to just take that all,
- 2:49:43SPEAKER_02: just as a fan of the band at that time,
- 2:49:47just see them get that close and you as a fan put your energy
- 2:49:51into it and then they

- 2:52:20everybody knew about it and then they were like yeah sure you
- 2:52:22were you were that
- 2:52:24SPEAKER_02: you were the one that knew about doc and i was like i was really i was
- 2:52:32and that was good times yep just you know working at the record
- 2:52:35stores when i first
- 2:52:37heard them when breaking the chains sure themselves and then of
- 2:52:41course mtv they
- 2:52:43were on mtv and then it just went from there i just liked what
- 2:52:47i heard from the
- 2:52:48SPEAKER_02: from the get-go right and uh just was a just a fan ever since
- 2:52:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I was always a fan from when I heard him.
- 2:52:57SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 2:52:57SPEAKER_02: I take that back because I remember the first time I heard him,
- 2:52:59SPEAKER_02: I didn't like him that much.
- 2:53:01SPEAKER_02: I hated the song Breaking the Chains.
- 2:53:04SPEAKER_02: Remember that had that super fucking cheesy, terrible video.
- 2:53:08SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:53:09SPEAKER_02: The chains blowing up and they were chained to like a table or some shit.
- 2:53:13SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:53:14SPEAKER_02: They were just breaking.
- 2:53:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:53:17SPEAKER_02: And it was like,
- 2:53:18SPEAKER_02: but it was like real cheap,
- 2:53:21SPEAKER_02: real cheap fireworks or something that are going off on it.
- 2:53:24SPEAKER_02: Cause probably cause they didn't want to get burned or nothing.
- 2:53:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:53:29it was probably some improvised that they made themselves like
- 2:53:32like rock and randy
- 2:53:33remember rock and randy used to make the flash pots oh yeah it
- 2:53:37was damn near blow
- 2:53:38up the stage i'm sure that's what was going on with docking on
- 2:53:43the there's no way
- 2:53:44SPEAKER_02: that video costs more than 500 there's just no way
- 2:53:50SPEAKER_02: But I just remember hearing that.
- 2:53:52SPEAKER_02: I didn't like the song either.
- 2:53:54SPEAKER_02: And I didn't like Felony very much.
- 2:53:56SPEAKER_02: I remember hearing that and I didn't like Felony.
- 2:53:58SPEAKER_02: I didn't like that record.
- 2:54:00SPEAKER_02: But man, they put it together on the next one though.
- 2:54:02SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 2:54:02SPEAKER_02: they had to,
- 2:54:04SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:54:04SPEAKER_02: they,
- 2:54:04SPEAKER_02: they were going to be dropped from the label because,
- 2:54:06SPEAKER_02: because bringing the gene stiffed,
- 2:54:09SPEAKER_02: it just,
- 2:54:09SPEAKER_02: it just wasn't happening.
- 2:54:11You know,
- 2:54:11they were out on the,
- 2:54:13their first major tour was opening for blue oyster call.
- 2:54:16SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:54:18SPEAKER_02: And,
- 2:54:18SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 2:54:18SPEAKER_02: they came home,
- 2:54:19SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:54:20after that tour and the record wasn't selling and they were
- 2:54:24about ready to get
- 2:54:25SPEAKER_02: dropped.
- 2:54:25SPEAKER_02: And, you know, Don basically.
- 2:54:29begged the record label to give them one more chance and that's
- 2:54:32when they came up
- 2:54:33with tooth and nail and that you know that just set them set
- 2:54:37them you know off on
- 2:54:39SPEAKER_02: their course it's weird how they went from
- 2:54:44SPEAKER_02: I'll say questionable songs with,
- 2:54:47with breaking the chains and the stuff before to three albums
- 2:54:52of near perfection.
- 2:54:54Well,
- 2:54:54the thing is,
- 2:54:55is breaking the chains really wasn't a cohesive band yet.
- 2:55:00SPEAKER_02: It was just a,
- 2:55:01SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:55:02SPEAKER_02: a collection of songs that they recorded,
- 2:55:07SPEAKER_02: but they,
- 2:55:07SPEAKER_02: they weren't like a,
- 2:55:08SPEAKER_02: a,
- 2:55:11SPEAKER_02: seasoned band or a band that played well together.
- 2:55:15SPEAKER_02: They just, they just recorded these songs and, um,
- 2:55:20SPEAKER_02: it was only in Germany and then they brought it here to the U S and,
- 2:55:25SPEAKER_02: and,
- 2:55:25SPEAKER_02: um,

- 2:55:27SPEAKER_02: re-released it.
- 2:55:28SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:55:29SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 2:55:29SPEAKER_02: so,
- 2:55:30SPEAKER_02: but once they became a band and had,
- 2:55:34SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 2:55:35SPEAKER_02: um,
- 2:55:36SPEAKER_02: consistent players and they,
- 2:55:38SPEAKER_02: and they wrote together and they performed together and all this,
- 2:55:41SPEAKER_02: that's when it all came together as a cohesive unit.
- 2:55:45SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 2:55:46SPEAKER_02: What's the go-to for you?
- 2:55:47SPEAKER_02: It's functional.
- 2:55:49dysfunctional really yeah okay i gotta go with back for the
- 2:55:54attack for me i love
- 2:55:56that record venice yes i listened to it uh thursday on my way
- 2:56:00down to st louis but
- 2:56:02i listened to dysfunctional on the way back today dysfunctional
- 2:56:05is damn good too
- 2:56:06but it's a mature record i mean it's it's a very mature record
- 2:56:11the the uh the songs
- 2:56:14SPEAKER_02: and the the
- 2:56:17lyrics and the,
- 2:56:18and the meanings and some of the songs are just very,
- 2:56:21uh,
- 2:56:21very deep.
- 2:56:22SPEAKER_02: And that wasn't even supposed to be a docking record.
- 2:56:25That was supposed to be a followup on dock and solo record from
- 2:56:29up from the ashes.
- 2:56:31SPEAKER_02: Would you put up to dysfunctional?
- 2:56:36SPEAKER_02: Where would you list the solo record?
- 2:56:41SPEAKER_02: Cause I personally would put it pretty fuck.
- 2:56:43I would put it probably third in the dock and catalog behind
- 2:56:48back for the,
- 2:56:49SPEAKER_02: for me behind back for the attack and tooth and nail.
- 2:56:52up from the ashes yeah yeah that's that's in my top five that's
- 2:56:57in my probably top
- 2:56:58three from them i love that record it is just so good i would
- 2:57:03have loved i would
- 2:57:05have loved to have heard what lynch would have done with some
- 2:57:07of those songs
- 2:57:08nothing against john it was john norm right it was john norm
- 2:57:12and billy white yeah i
- 2:57:14would have rather heard lynch i think it would have been it
- 2:57:17would have been an
- 2:57:17SPEAKER_02: amazing docking record
- 2:57:20it would have been the record that put him over the do you
- 2:57:23think that it would have
- 2:57:24put him over and the reason it didn't put Don over was because
- 2:57:28it was Don Dockin
- 2:57:29and not Dockin yeah well he had to start again more or less you
- 2:57:33know and plus he
- 2:57:34was on a new label too he was on Geffen you know so you know he
- 2:57:41did well in Japan
- 2:57:42SPEAKER_02: and you gotta remember this was 1991 too
- 2:57:49sure so yeah so the business was getting ready to die yep it
- 2:57:54was it was changing
- 2:57:55over and so from 87 uh when when uh back for the attack came
- 2:58:01out to by the time
- 2:58:03that uh dawn's solo record came out you know there had been
- 2:58:08several years there you
- 2:58:09know and then of course the the climate was changing as well
- 2:58:14right yep i get it
- 2:58:19SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 2:58:21SPEAKER_02: Well, what do you want to do?
- 2:58:22SPEAKER_02: You want to take a break?

- 3:03:05SPEAKER_02: Now, you know what's funny, though, when you see this?
- 3:03:08SPEAKER_02: You know there was some stupid producer in his head that was like,
- 3:03:12SPEAKER_02: we're going to have you naked,
- 3:03:13SPEAKER_02: you're going to get up,
- 3:03:14SPEAKER_02: it's going to be sexy.

- 3:03:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, this is going to send you into the stratosphere.
- 3:03:30But the thing is,
- 3:03:31is that the majority of Billy's audience was mostly dudes,
- 3:03:36I would imagine.
- 3:03:37SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:03:38SPEAKER_02: And guys didn't want to see this.
- 3:03:40SPEAKER_02: They were just like, what the fuck?
- 3:03:42SPEAKER_02: They wanted the stroke man, not this guy.
- 3:03:44SPEAKER_02: This guy was the stroke myself, man.
- 3:03:48SPEAKER_02: This is not good.
- 3:03:49SPEAKER_02: All right, here we go.
- 3:03:50SPEAKER_01: You know what the faggiest part of my life is?

- 3:04:19same color pattern

- 3:04:26on emotions in
- 3:04:27motion and i bought the t-shirt and i and i remember that i was
- 3:04:33wearing it like i
- 3:04:34SPEAKER_02: would wear it to school i was proud of it i was billy squire fan
- 3:04:38SPEAKER_02: And then this video came out.
- 3:04:40And I remember getting punched right square in the back wearing
- 3:04:45that shirt to
- 3:04:46SPEAKER_02: school after this video came out.
- 3:04:47SPEAKER_02: And it was the last time I ever wore it.

- 3:04:50SPEAKER_02: Ditch the shirt, faggot.
- 3:04:52SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
- 3:04:53SPEAKER_02: That's exactly what it was, too.
- 3:04:55SPEAKER_02: It was like, how can you wear that shirt, you homo?
- 3:04:58SPEAKER_02: And I got beat for it.
- 3:05:01SPEAKER_02: Horrible.
- 3:05:02SPEAKER_02: All right, here we go.
- 3:05:13SPEAKER_02: Oh, Jesus Christ.
- 3:05:14SPEAKER_02: What is that?
- 3:05:16SPEAKER_02: What is that?
- 3:05:18SPEAKER_02: It's like he's directing an orchestra or something.
- 3:05:26SPEAKER_02: I know.
- 3:05:26SPEAKER_02: It's just this limp-wristed... It's like, wait a minute.
- 3:05:31SPEAKER_02: You're the emotions in motion guy.
- 3:05:34SPEAKER_02: You're the stroke man.
- 3:05:35SPEAKER_02: You're lonely as the night.
- 3:05:37SPEAKER_02: What is this?
- 3:05:38SPEAKER_02: Now you're dancing around in your fruity-looking apartment.
- 3:05:42SPEAKER_02: All right, here we go.
- 3:05:49SPEAKER_02: Oh, my God, are you kidding?
- 3:05:53SPEAKER_02: Oh, my God.
- 3:06:12SPEAKER_02: All right, but we have to blame him, right?
- 3:06:16SPEAKER_02: He knew what he did, and he saw the final cut.
- 3:06:21SPEAKER_02: He had to think this was terrible.
- 3:06:24SPEAKER_02: He had to.
- 3:06:27SPEAKER_02: There's no way he got up after this thing and said, fuck, nailed that.
- 3:06:32SPEAKER_02: There's no way, is there?
- 3:06:34SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 3:06:35SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 3:06:35SPEAKER_02: seeing the final cut is one thing,
- 3:06:37SPEAKER_02: but actually acting it out,
- 3:06:40SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 3:06:41SPEAKER_02: performing in the video.
- 3:06:43SPEAKER_02: He had to know that he was acting like a fruit.
- 3:06:47SPEAKER_02: Jesus Christ.
- 3:06:48It's like he took the script from a George Michael video and
- 3:06:52brought it to his studio.
- 3:06:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:06:54SPEAKER_02: What the hell?
- 3:06:55SPEAKER_02: He wanted to be the new Wham.
- 3:06:57SPEAKER_02: He did.
- 3:06:59SPEAKER_02: Jeez.
- 3:07:00SPEAKER_01: Here we go.
- 3:07:18SPEAKER_02: There's literally nothing masculine in this video.
- 3:07:22SPEAKER_02: Not a second of masculinity.
- 3:07:25SPEAKER_02: Just dancing around like a fairy.
- 3:07:29SPEAKER_02: In mood lighting, this is gay nightclub in the 80s colors.
- 3:07:37SPEAKER_02: That's what this is.
- 3:07:39SPEAKER_02: Somebody sabotaged him.
- 3:07:41SPEAKER_02: Come on.
- 3:07:41SPEAKER_02: There's no way.
- 3:07:42SPEAKER_02: Because he's like married in real life, isn't he?
- 3:07:45SPEAKER_02: I think so.
- 3:07:46SPEAKER_02: He has like a wife and he's been married for like 40 years or something.
- 3:07:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:07:51SPEAKER_02: Look, any woman that would stay with him after this deserves an award.
- 3:07:55SPEAKER_02: Jesus Christ.
- 3:07:56Do you think the wife saw this and forever suspected that he
- 3:07:59might be a little
- 3:08:00SPEAKER_02: light in the loafers?
- 3:08:00SPEAKER_02: Yeah, might have been.
- 3:08:03SPEAKER_02: Oh, you're late again.
- 3:08:04SPEAKER_02: Where were you?
- 3:08:05SPEAKER_02: I don't know, Billy.
- 3:08:06SPEAKER_02: A little questionable.
- 3:08:08SPEAKER_02: Billy, were you out with your friend Bill?
- 3:08:10SPEAKER_02: Jesus.
- 3:08:19SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 3:08:20SPEAKER_02: No one ever wore that.
- 3:08:23SPEAKER_02: Ever.
- 3:08:24No heterosexual man wore a wife beater with a pink,
- 3:08:30what would you call that,
- 3:08:30an overlay?
- 3:08:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's like an over shirt or over, you know, a layered look.
- 3:08:37SPEAKER_02: No hetero man ever wore that.
- 3:08:40SPEAKER_02: Ever.
- 3:08:42SPEAKER_02: Except Billy.
- 3:08:50SPEAKER_00: You're in for a ride.
- 3:08:52SPEAKER_01: Can you feel the blood bound?
- 3:08:58SPEAKER_03: The way you're down inside.
- 3:09:04SPEAKER_02: No one's stopping us now.
- 3:09:06SPEAKER_02: You're downtown.
- 3:09:08SPEAKER_00: The music's loud.
- 3:09:09SPEAKER_00: Hey, that's all right about me.
- 3:09:13SPEAKER_03: Go and play all my love.
- 3:09:15SPEAKER_00: Play it all for me.
- 3:09:18The real question is,
- 3:09:20what does he do those hand motions for in real life?
- 3:09:23SPEAKER_02: Because that's not something he's doing just for this video.
- 3:09:26SPEAKER_02: He's comfortable doing it.
- 3:09:29Do you think this was what he did when he was dancing around
- 3:09:31his house listening to...
- 3:09:34SPEAKER_02: Madonna or fine young cannibals or whatever.
- 3:09:36SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 3:09:37SPEAKER_02: But he's like the male version of flash dance.
- 3:09:41SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 3:09:42SPEAKER_02: So awful.
- 3:09:44SPEAKER_02: And the dancing around.
- 3:09:46SPEAKER_02: This is so bad.

- 3:10:18SPEAKER_01: We can make it if we try.
- 3:10:21SPEAKER_01: Taking our chances of
- 3:10:54All that needs to happen is the rain falling down on him like
- 3:10:57in Flashdance.
- 3:11:01SPEAKER_02: Jesus Christ.
- 3:11:03SPEAKER_02: Son of a bitch.
- 3:11:06SPEAKER_02: the hell are you faggots doing?
- 3:11:08SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:11:09SPEAKER_02: Anthony's not wrong on this one.
- 3:11:12SPEAKER_01: Jeez.
- 3:11:40Yeah,
- 3:11:42every night we hear the sound We're breaking up and breaking
- 3:11:51down We'll find a
- 3:11:53SPEAKER_00: chance,
- 3:11:53SPEAKER_00: we'll leave it all away
- 3:12:30I would love to know what these guys' names are and if their
- 3:12:34careers were ruined as
- 3:12:35SPEAKER_02: well with this.
- 3:12:39SPEAKER_02: I wouldn't think so because they weren't a name brand or anything.
- 3:12:42SPEAKER_02: We don't know their names.
- 3:12:45SPEAKER_02: You imagine the drummer or whatever goes for an audition.
- 3:12:48SPEAKER_02: Hey, who have you played for before?
- 3:12:50SPEAKER_02: I was in that Billy Squire video.
- 3:12:52SPEAKER_02: Thank you for coming.
- 3:12:54SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:12:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you can leave now.
- 3:12:58SPEAKER_02: Jeez.
- 3:13:00SPEAKER_02: This is really wretched.
- 3:13:02SPEAKER_02: Oof.
- 3:13:02SPEAKER_01: All right, here we go.
- 3:14:00SPEAKER_02: I think these guys were the backing band for Frankie Goes to Hollywood.
- 3:14:04SPEAKER_02: Jeez.
- 3:14:05SPEAKER_02: Hey, guys, you want to shoot a music video or really gaying it up?
- 3:14:10SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:14:12SPEAKER_02: Oh, no.
- 3:14:13SPEAKER_02: What are you doing with your shirt closed?
- 3:14:15SPEAKER_02: Rip it open.
- 3:14:16SPEAKER_02: Let's go.
- 3:14:18SPEAKER_02: Now we're going to ass bump into each other.
- 3:14:21SPEAKER_02: Oh, my God.
- 3:14:22SPEAKER_02: And then do some stomping around.
- 3:14:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he fucking torpedoed his career with this.
- 3:14:30SPEAKER_02: Oh, man.
- 3:14:32SPEAKER_02: Never could recover.
- 3:14:33SPEAKER_02: Nope.
- 3:14:34SPEAKER_02: Because he had some good songs.
- 3:14:36SPEAKER_02: Like, you remember that song, Don't Say You Love Me?
- 3:14:38SPEAKER_02: That was a pretty good song.
- 3:14:40SPEAKER_02: Don't say you love me.
- 3:14:45SPEAKER_02: That's a good tune on the next record, but it was way too late.
- 3:14:49SPEAKER_02: By then, we had all said, faggot, moved on.
- 3:14:52SPEAKER_02: It's like, nope.
- 3:14:53SPEAKER_02: Nope.
- 3:14:56Would you say he was the first ever artist that got absolutely
- 3:15:00abandoned for gayness?
- 3:15:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:15:03SPEAKER_02: I would think so, too.
- 3:15:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:15:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:15:06SPEAKER_02: I mean, he went from having a...
- 3:15:08SPEAKER_02: you know, a very, uh, high profile career.
- 3:15:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:15:13SPEAKER_02: His,
- 3:15:13his songs were being played on the radio and his albums were
- 3:15:17selling and all that
- 3:15:18SPEAKER_02: other stuff.
- 3:15:19SPEAKER_02: And then this came out and it was just like over done over just done.
- 3:15:26SPEAKER_02: Wow.
- 3:15:29SPEAKER_02: What a fall.
- 3:15:30SPEAKER_02: Holy smokes.
- 3:15:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:15:33SPEAKER_02: All right, well, there you go.
- 3:15:34SPEAKER_02: It's Billy Squire.
- 3:15:36SPEAKER_02: I know we circle back to him every now and again, but so what?
- 3:15:40SPEAKER_02: We're just gaying it up.
- 3:15:41SPEAKER_02: And Hardy, stop it.
- 3:15:43SPEAKER_02: That is not a good song.
- 3:15:46SPEAKER_02: That's not a good song.
- 3:15:49SPEAKER_02: If you want a good song on that album, go and listen to another 1984.
- 3:15:52SPEAKER_02: That's a good song.
- 3:15:56SPEAKER_02: Rock Me Tonight is not a good song.
- 3:15:59SPEAKER_02: Do you think it's a good song?
- 3:16:01SPEAKER_02: I'm not a fan.
- 3:16:04SPEAKER_02: I mean, can you ever, like if it comes on, don't you switch it?
- 3:16:09SPEAKER_02: Well, I don't know where I'd hear it.
- 3:16:11SPEAKER_02: Like if it came on on like Spotify or something.
- 3:16:15SPEAKER_02: I don't know, maybe.
- 3:16:16SPEAKER_02: I'd be like, come on, come on.
- 3:16:21SPEAKER_02: Don't let the gayness in here.
- 3:16:24SPEAKER_02: I don't want to start sucking cock.
- 3:16:26SPEAKER_02: Switch.
- 3:16:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's not a great song.

- 3:16:56get your opinion on
- 3:16:57SPEAKER_02: it okay um
- 3:17:02The note that I gave to myself on this,
- 3:17:06note to self,
- 3:17:10I think I called this more to the story.
- 3:17:13SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 3:17:15SPEAKER_02: So see if you can figure out what's going on here.
- 3:17:18SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 3:17:22SPEAKER_02: The Marriott, the hotel.
- 3:17:25SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
- 3:17:26SPEAKER_02: left the young family high and dry in sin city.
- 3:17:31SPEAKER_02: Literally.
- 3:17:32SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 3:17:34A dad has claimed that he and his wife and their three-year-old
- 3:17:37were forced to
- 3:17:38spend the nights sweating in their car after the brand new
- 3:17:43element and AC hotel,
- 3:17:45symphony park refused to honor their reservation all because he
- 3:17:50didn't have a
- 3:17:50SPEAKER_02: plastic credit card in hand.
- 3:17:54SPEAKER_02: The only reason I had misplaced my physical plastic credit card,
- 3:17:59SPEAKER_02: the furious guest revealed to one mile at a time,
- 3:18:06SPEAKER_02: slamming the chain for stranding them in the Vegas heat.
- 3:18:10SPEAKER_02: Instead of a cool Marriott suite,
- 3:18:13his toddler curled up in the backseat with him and tried to
- 3:18:18sleep in the passenger
- 3:18:19SPEAKER_02: seat.
- 3:18:20My young child and wife slept in our vehicle on a hot Las Vegas
- 3:18:24night while I
- 3:18:25SPEAKER_02: repeatedly sought help through every official channel.
- 3:18:29SPEAKER_02: The Marriott Bonvoy Titanium Elite member fumed.
- 3:18:35The kicker,
- 3:18:36Marriott had actually promised digital check-in as a way to
- 3:18:39skip the front desk.
- 3:18:41SPEAKER_02: But when this desperate dad tried it,
- 3:18:45SPEAKER_02: he alleged the so-called perk turned into a parking lot punishment.
- 3:18:51SPEAKER_02: According to one mile at a time,
- 3:18:53the general manager eventually sent a message that read more
- 3:18:56like a script than an
- 3:18:57SPEAKER_02: apology.
- 3:18:58I do apologize for not being able to check you in without a
- 3:19:02physical credit card
- 3:19:03SPEAKER_02: being present at the time of check-in.
- 3:19:05SPEAKER_02: At our property,
- 3:19:06we do require a matching ID and a credit card to be run through
- 3:19:10our chip and pin
- 3:19:11SPEAKER_02: machine.
- 3:19:12SPEAKER_02: I do sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
- 3:19:18SPEAKER_02: Now you've gone to hotels.
- 3:19:20SPEAKER_01: Yeah, of course.
- 3:19:21SPEAKER_02: Have you ever been able to check into a hotel without a credit card?
- 3:19:25SPEAKER_02: No, never, never.
- 3:19:28And I'd go,
- 3:19:29you know,
- 3:19:29I,
- 3:19:30I probably,
- 3:19:30I'm probably in a hotel at least two dozen times a year.
- 3:19:35SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 3:19:36Never have I been to a hotel where you didn't have a ID and a
- 3:19:41credit card.
- 3:19:43SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I mean, that's part of the game.
- 3:19:45SPEAKER_02: It's like renting a car, same thing.
- 3:19:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah, exactly.
- 3:19:50SPEAKER_02: And when the dad escalated his complaint,
- 3:19:52corporate allegedly doubled down in a statement to him with
- 3:19:55Marriott Breast saying
- 3:19:57that the Vegas hotel was within its right to demand a physical
- 3:20:01credit card and an
- 3:20:02SPEAKER_02: ID.
- 3:20:03Even while admitting their much-hyped digital and mobile
- 3:20:06check-in doesn't always
- 3:20:08SPEAKER_02: mean you can actually...
- 3:20:10SPEAKER_02: Just check in.
- 3:20:11The company acknowledged that the inconsistency between the
- 3:20:14advertised amenities
- 3:20:16SPEAKER_02: and the operational practices one mile reported,
- 3:20:20SPEAKER_02: but offered no fix,
- 3:20:22only noting that the dad's observation had been shared with our
- 3:20:26internal team for
- 3:20:27SPEAKER_02: further evaluation.
- 3:20:28The guest statements words in his response,
- 3:20:31accusing Marriott of false advertising.
- 3:20:34When a company continues to promote a specific feature as an
- 3:20:38inducement to a
- 3:20:39SPEAKER_02: purchase,
- 3:20:40SPEAKER_02: knowing it will not be delivered,
- 3:20:41SPEAKER_02: the question ceases to be one of...
- 3:20:44internal policy and becomes one of a deceptive trade practice
- 3:20:48he fires back to the
- 3:20:50travel site calling it a matter of consumer protection law he
- 3:20:54stressed that he
- 3:20:54wasn't asking Marriott to scrap digital check-in altogether
- 3:20:59just to be honest about
- 3:21:00it update the amenity list and spell out that the guests still
- 3:21:04need a physical card
- 3:21:06SPEAKER_02: in hand
- 3:21:07SPEAKER_02: A straightforward edit of the property's amenity list,
- 3:21:11SPEAKER_02: removing digital check-in,
- 3:21:13SPEAKER_02: or clearly stating that a physical card is always required.
- 3:21:19SPEAKER_02: I've never been to a hotel where you didn't have to have that.
- 3:21:22SPEAKER_02: That's just one of the rules.
- 3:21:24SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:21:25It would resolve the inconsistency and protect both the guests
- 3:21:28and the Marriott
- 3:21:29SPEAKER_02: from the risk of regulatory scrutiny.
- 3:21:33SPEAKER_02: The post has reached out to Marriott for comment.
- 3:21:36SPEAKER_02: It's not one...
- 3:21:38It's not just one unlucky family catching flack from the
- 3:21:41hospitality industry either.
- 3:21:44SPEAKER_02: As the Post previously reported,
- 3:21:46travelers around the globe are fuming after screenshots show
- 3:21:50third-party hotel
- 3:21:51booking sites hitting customers with a tipping request before
- 3:21:56they even check out.
- 3:21:59SPEAKER_02: Yeah, the tipping thing is out of control in every industry.
- 3:22:03SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:22:03And you might think slipping 20 to the front desk for an
- 3:22:06upgrade was old school,
- 3:22:08SPEAKER_02: but some luxury hotels are now cutting to the chase,
- 3:22:12SPEAKER_02: practically shaking down guests for cash the moment they check in.
- 3:22:16SPEAKER_02: One traveler told The View from the Wing earlier this week,
- 3:22:20year that they were given a slip of paper pushing tipping along
- 3:22:25with their key when
- 3:22:26they checked in at the Marriott and another reader who admitted
- 3:22:30they once felt
- 3:22:31smugly happy we don't stay at a Marriott often anymore says one
- 3:22:36smug said their
- 3:22:39smugness didn't last long they allegedly were hit with the same
- 3:22:42treatment at
- 3:22:43SPEAKER_02: Boston's Hyatt Central Hotel right
- 3:22:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's just crazy talk there, man.
- 3:22:53SPEAKER_02: I have to have...
- 3:22:55SPEAKER_02: Unless you're doing a pay-by-the-hour thing.
- 3:22:58SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:22:59SPEAKER_02: You know, just to bang some broad or something.
- 3:23:01SPEAKER_02: You know, one of them sleazy motels.
- 3:23:03SPEAKER_02: Any reputable hotel, you've got to show a credit card.
- 3:23:07SPEAKER_02: An ID and a credit card.
- 3:23:08SPEAKER_02: Yeah, every time.
- 3:23:10They want to see your driver's license or some kind of state ID
- 3:23:14and a credit card.
- 3:23:16You know,
- 3:23:17I've never known anybody can just walk into a hotel and check
- 3:23:20in without...
- 3:23:22SPEAKER_02: You know, anything like that in hand.
- 3:23:24SPEAKER_02: At what point did we start tipping the person that hands you the keys?
- 3:23:30SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 3:23:31SPEAKER_02: Have you ever done that?
- 3:23:33SPEAKER_02: No, I have never done that.
- 3:23:34SPEAKER_02: I was going to say, I wouldn't do that either.
- 3:23:37SPEAKER_02: That's your job, to hand me keys.
- 3:23:38SPEAKER_02: I don't need to tip you for it.
- 3:23:39SPEAKER_02: You're already getting paid.
- 3:23:44SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 3:23:44SPEAKER_02: Am I crazy and thinking that tipping is just out of control now?
- 3:23:49SPEAKER_02: I saw a thing yesterday on some news thing or something.
- 3:23:55SPEAKER_02: It was some guy kicked over a kiosk in a mall or something.
- 3:24:01SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 3:24:02SPEAKER_02: Because he had to order something.
- 3:24:04SPEAKER_02: He ordered it on the kiosk.
- 3:24:06SPEAKER_02: And the kiosk asked him for a tip.
- 3:24:09SPEAKER_02: As he went to pay at a kiosk, it had a thing for a tip.
- 3:24:13SPEAKER_02: And he got all stupid belligerent.
- 3:24:15SPEAKER_02: He kicked it over, which then he got arrested.
- 3:24:17SPEAKER_02: But...
- 3:24:18you know but i mean what kind of is that now now we're tipping
- 3:24:23what robots they
- 3:24:26weren't put out to do anything i've never heard of that it's
- 3:24:30it's getting out of
- 3:24:31it's out of hand now you see videos of people when they deliver
- 3:24:36the doordash like
- 3:24:37you didn't tip me enough it's like yeah kidding me you're
- 3:24:42you're doing a job where
- 3:24:43SPEAKER_02: you're asking for voluntary tips
- 3:24:47SPEAKER_02: Then you're going to chastise somebody for that?
- 3:24:49SPEAKER_02: Fuck you.
- 3:24:51SPEAKER_02: Tip is zero.
- 3:24:53SPEAKER_02: Canceled order, fuck.
- 3:24:55SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:24:56SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 3:24:56SPEAKER_02: again,
- 3:24:57SPEAKER_02: when you're in that service industry,
- 3:25:01people have that expectation that you're going to give them a
- 3:25:06certain percentage of
- 3:25:09SPEAKER_02: whatever the total bill is.
- 3:25:11SPEAKER_02: Which I still find in DoorDash world to be stupid.
- 3:25:16SPEAKER_02: Tell me why I should tip.
- 3:25:20SPEAKER_02: Let's say a standard tip for a pizza is $5.
- 3:25:22SPEAKER_02: Does that sound reasonable?
- 3:25:25SPEAKER_02: It sounds reasonable to me.
- 3:25:27SPEAKER_02: It's a pizza.
- 3:25:27SPEAKER_02: It's a pizza.
- 3:25:29SPEAKER_02: So tell me why it should be $10 for two pizzas.
- 3:25:34SPEAKER_02: It should be.
- 3:25:35SPEAKER_02: It should be five.
- 3:25:36SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you're bringing the same boxes together at the same time.
- 3:25:42SPEAKER_02: You're just carrying an extra box.
- 3:25:44SPEAKER_02: That's it.
- 3:25:45If you made two separate trips or something,
- 3:25:49but just carrying an extra box.
- 3:25:53SPEAKER_02: And I have a couple of people in my life that do DoorDash.
- 3:25:58SPEAKER_02: They will argue with you to the end.
- 3:26:00SPEAKER_02: And my argument is, okay,
- 3:26:04SPEAKER_02: If I go to,
- 3:26:05SPEAKER_02: if I DoorDash,
- 3:26:07SPEAKER_02: let's say I order a steak dinner from Applebee's,
- 3:26:11SPEAKER_02: which admittedly that's a terrible idea.
- 3:26:13SPEAKER_02: The steak will be just garbage.
- 3:26:15But if I order a steak dinner from Applebee's and a steak
- 3:26:19dinner from Outback,
- 3:26:20SPEAKER_02: okay,
- 3:26:23SPEAKER_02: each one is a steak dinner.
- 3:26:26SPEAKER_02: Why would I pay more for you to deliver me the Outback steak than the
- 3:26:34applebee's steak why would i tip you more you're still just
- 3:26:39bringing me a steak
- 3:26:41right well they're basing it on the uh the total bill and they
- 3:26:47and they're putting
- 3:26:47up yeah i know why i know what they're doing i'm saying they're
- 3:26:50not right to do it
- 3:26:52yeah and again that's that's how they're trying to determine
- 3:26:55what the tip is worth
- 3:26:57SPEAKER_02: i guess
- 3:26:58SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:26:59SPEAKER_02: Just because the food is overpriced doesn't mean I got to tip you double.
- 3:27:03SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:27:03SPEAKER_02: That's ridiculous.
- 3:27:05SPEAKER_02: You know, you're doing the same fucking job.
- 3:27:08SPEAKER_02: And I see Sal in here.
- 3:27:09SPEAKER_02: You got to tip 20% minimum.
- 3:27:11SPEAKER_02: Well, if they do good service, I'll tip them.
- 3:27:13SPEAKER_02: I'll tip them more than 20%.
- 3:27:16SPEAKER_02: I'm generally that guy that does 35 to 50 if they do me right.
- 3:27:21SPEAKER_02: But if they don't do me right, I'm not paying.
- 3:27:23SPEAKER_02: Like even if I do like order a pizza or something,
- 3:27:26SPEAKER_02: a lot of times the pizza company will say,
- 3:27:31SPEAKER_02: do you want to leave a tip?
- 3:27:33SPEAKER_02: They're asking me to leave a tip before they get to the door.
- 3:27:37SPEAKER_02: And I'll always say, yeah, $2.
- 3:27:40SPEAKER_02: And then if they're good, I'll give them some more.
- 3:27:42SPEAKER_02: I'll give them like three more dollars at the door or whatever.
- 3:27:45SPEAKER_02: But if they're not, fuck you.
- 3:27:46SPEAKER_02: I already paid my $2.
- 3:27:47SPEAKER_02: Beat it, fuck.
- 3:27:49SPEAKER_02: Because I want the service.
- 3:27:51SPEAKER_02: You know, I mean, it used to be a trade.
- 3:27:56SPEAKER_02: That's what tipping was, was a trade.
- 3:27:59SPEAKER_02: You give me better service than everybody else and I'll give you money.
- 3:28:04SPEAKER_02: Isn't that what tipping is?
- 3:28:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but from the standpoint of the customer, a tip is reward.
- 3:28:14SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 3:28:15SPEAKER_02: It's a reward.
- 3:28:16SPEAKER_02: And that's how I treat it is I'm happy to give,
- 3:28:21SPEAKER_02: like at the bar,
- 3:28:22SPEAKER_02: and you've seen me do this at the bar.
- 3:28:23SPEAKER_02: When I get rolling at the bar.
- 3:28:26SPEAKER_02: It is not uncommon for me to tip 50% on a big bill.
- 3:28:31SPEAKER_02: If I've got everybody around me and it's $300,
- 3:28:35SPEAKER_02: $400 or whatever,
- 3:28:36SPEAKER_02: it is not crazy for me to tip another $150,
- 3:28:39SPEAKER_02: $200.
- 3:28:39SPEAKER_02: That's not crazy.
- 3:28:40SPEAKER_02: But they've got to earn it.
- 3:28:46If I'm sitting there waving at the fucking bartender every 10
- 3:28:49minutes to bring me
- 3:28:50SPEAKER_02: another drink,
- 3:28:51SPEAKER_02: you know what you're getting for a tip?
- 3:28:52SPEAKER_02: Nothing.
- 3:28:53SPEAKER_02: Because you didn't keep my drink full.
- 3:28:55SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:28:56SPEAKER_02: That's the only reason I'm paying you is to fucking take care of me.
- 3:29:00SPEAKER_02: Ignore the guy at the bar and take care of me.
- 3:29:03SPEAKER_02: If you do that, I'll tip you.
- 3:29:05SPEAKER_02: If you don't, I won't.
- 3:29:06SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 3:29:07like I've told this story before that if I'm going to stay at a
- 3:29:11hotel for a couple
- 3:29:13SPEAKER_02: of days and if I go to the bar,
- 3:29:15SPEAKER_02: I set the standard at the bar on the first day.
- 3:29:19SPEAKER_02: And then every time I go in there, they jump to attention.
- 3:29:23SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 3:29:24You know,
- 3:29:24so you get their attention at the very beginning and then
- 3:29:28they...
- 3:29:29SPEAKER_02: They see you and they're right there.
- 3:29:32SPEAKER_02: Oh, hello, Mr. Neely.
- 3:29:33SPEAKER_02: Glad to see you're here tonight.
- 3:29:35SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
- 3:29:36SPEAKER_02: I get that when I go into Sassy's down the street.
- 3:29:39SPEAKER_02: The lady that owns the place, her name is Stephanie.
- 3:29:42SPEAKER_02: And every time I walk in there, she says, hey, Chris, been a minute.
- 3:29:45SPEAKER_02: Where you been?
- 3:29:46SPEAKER_02: Hey, how you doing, Stephanie?
- 3:29:49SPEAKER_02: And she comes right over, takes my order.
- 3:29:50SPEAKER_02: She's the owner of the company.
- 3:29:52SPEAKER_02: She comes over and takes my order.
- 3:29:54She doesn't wait for her minions to do it because she knows I'm
- 3:29:56going to throw some
- 3:29:57SPEAKER_02: money in the place.

- 3:30:44SPEAKER_02: Get the fuck out of here with that shit.
- 3:30:46SPEAKER_02: For what?
- 3:30:48SPEAKER_02: For driving some bags across town?

- 3:31:23this.
- 3:31:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah, sure.
- 3:31:25SPEAKER_02: Gen Z is so frugal,
- 3:31:29SPEAKER_02: they're doctoring,
- 3:31:31SPEAKER_02: quote unquote,
- 3:31:32heavy sodas at the gas station fountains throughout the country
- 3:31:36to make one drink
- 3:31:38SPEAKER_02: last all day.
- 3:31:40SPEAKER_01: What do you mean by doctoring it?
- 3:31:42SPEAKER_02: Well, let's find out.
- 3:31:43SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 3:31:44Gen Z is doctoring heavy sodas at gas station fountains
- 3:31:49throughout the country.
- 3:31:50SPEAKER_02: The phenomenon is deeply connected to the economic realities.
- 3:31:54Making one drink last all day is a practical response to having
- 3:31:58little money to
- 3:31:59SPEAKER_02: play with and trying to stretch...
- 3:32:01limited budgets at many gas stations across the midwest and the
- 3:32:06south gen zers have
- 3:32:07discovered heavy options of soda fountain machines where the
- 3:32:12syrup to the water
- 3:32:13ratio is boosted for extra sweetness and flavor i haven't heard
- 3:32:18i haven't seen that
- 3:32:19i'm gonna be honest i don't drink that i don't yeah i don't
- 3:32:21either i don't either
- 3:32:22SPEAKER_02: thanks
- 3:32:23The drinks are intentionally made stronger to withstand
- 3:32:27dilution from melting ice
- 3:32:28SPEAKER_02: allowing the soda to taste like it typically does as the ice melts.
- 3:32:33The hack appeals to those who purchase a single large drink and
- 3:32:38keep adding ice and
- 3:32:39water throughout the day effectively extending the life and the
- 3:32:43value of each
- 3:32:44SPEAKER_02: purchase.
- 3:32:45SPEAKER_02: Gen Z shaped by rising inflation,
- 3:32:49SPEAKER_02: stagnant wages,
- 3:32:50and lingering effects of the pandemic era disruptions faces an
- 3:32:55economic environment
- 3:32:57SPEAKER_02: where disposable income is scarce and the financial thrift is necessary.
- 3:33:02Budgeting and saving are essential tools for navigating
- 3:33:05uncertain times and small
- 3:33:07SPEAKER_02: hacks like heavy soda embody this mindset.
- 3:33:11SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 3:33:12SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 3:33:14SPEAKER_02: If people are doing that, then they're dumb as two stumps.
- 3:33:17Because first of all,
- 3:33:18just to buy the one drink is going to be like $3,
- 3:33:20$4.
- 3:33:20SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:33:22SPEAKER_02: To buy the one drink.
- 3:33:24SPEAKER_02: You can buy a box of Crystal Light or whatever,
- 3:33:28SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 3:33:30SPEAKER_02: of whatever flavor you want,
- 3:33:31SPEAKER_02: whether it's fruit punch or tea or whatever.
- 3:33:35SPEAKER_02: whatever you want, for like $2, and that'll get you 10 cups, you know.
- 3:33:41That'll get you 10 cups,
- 3:33:42and you can fill it at your house for nothing,
- 3:33:44for water.
- 3:33:45SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:33:45SPEAKER_02: So I don't know.
- 3:33:47SPEAKER_02: Do I doubt this is happening?
- 3:33:49SPEAKER_02: No.
- 3:33:51I'm sure there's a lot of fucking loser kids that are hanging
- 3:33:54out by the Slurpee machine.
- 3:33:56SPEAKER_02: We used to as kids too.
- 3:33:58You know,
- 3:33:58we used to hang out in there and try and,
- 3:34:01you know,
- 3:34:01keep refilling the cups.
- 3:34:03SPEAKER_02: But after three, after about an hour or so, we'd leave.
- 3:34:07SPEAKER_02: You know, you just get bored with that.
- 3:34:09SPEAKER_02: I don't, I'm not believing.
- 3:34:10SPEAKER_02: So what they're saying is they get it super high level.
- 3:34:15fructose or whatever and then they just keep pouring water in
- 3:34:18yeah exactly adding
- 3:34:19ice and adding water through the day and basically diluting it
- 3:34:23as the day goes on
- 3:34:25just to make it last all day that sounds like an awful lot of
- 3:34:29work for a generation
- 3:34:30SPEAKER_02: that doesn't want to do any work
- 3:34:32no that's what i was saying i i don't believe people are doing
- 3:34:36this yeah i don't
- 3:34:37believe this at all yeah i believe this is some wise tale wives
- 3:34:41tale that somebody
- 3:34:42told one story somewhere and some dick reporter just said yeah
- 3:34:46let's let's go with
- 3:34:47SPEAKER_02: that that's a good story it's just like that old story or that old uh uh
- 3:34:53you buy your gasoline in the morning because you can get more
- 3:34:56in your tank,
- 3:34:58SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 3:35:00SPEAKER_02: before it gets warm and it expands.
- 3:35:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, right.
- 3:35:06SPEAKER_02: It's a good answer.
