- 1:53Speaker 3: let's take a listen to it. And I think after
- 1:55Speaker 3: the first listen we all were like absolutely. First of all,
- 1:58Speaker 3: Ed sounded so great on the demo. It was like,
- 2:00Speaker 3: how are we going to top this? But I think
- 2:02Speaker 3: we actually did a good job.
- 2:03Speaker 1: We have five shots.
- 2:06Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're all you know what, you're all Dad's
- 2:10Speaker 2: So yeah, the whole connection to Paul Patrol has got
- 2:13Speaker 2: to feel pretty special, so.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Nostalgic for me.
- 2:15Speaker 5: I mean when I was when my son was born,
- 2:17Speaker 5: that was the first cartoon we were watching, you know, one, two, three,
- 2:21Speaker 5: four or five, like bought the toys, watched every single episode,
- 2:25Speaker 5: you know, passed it on to my my girls, and
- 2:27Speaker 5: so like.
- 2:27Speaker 2: We're still watching it to what do they think of
- 2:29Speaker 2: the dad connection with Paul Patrol?
- 2:31Speaker 4: Now?
- 2:31Speaker 5: I mean it's crazy because well, yeah, no, he's clearly.
- 2:35Speaker 1: What happened was like we had gotten.
- 2:38Speaker 5: The music video sent to us and it wasn't finished yet,
- 2:41Speaker 5: and I played it on my TV and my girls
- 2:45Speaker 5: were both sitting there watching it and they're like, oh my.
- 2:48Speaker 1: God, that's like Daddy's song.
- 2:49Speaker 5: And they were singing it and and they were just
- 2:52Speaker 5: singing after it was played. And so that's when you
- 2:54Speaker 5: can really tell if it like, especially with a child,
- 2:57Speaker 5: if they're singing it.
- 2:59Speaker 1: My daughter was like, had that song stuck in my head?
- 3:01Speaker 5: I'm like, that's a hit record.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Well, our kids love Paul Patrol, But what do you
- 3:09Speaker 2: remember what was your favorite cartoon growing up?
- 3:11Speaker 1: Brian Nick was an injured her.
- 3:14Speaker 4: For me, it was like Scooby Doo right right, the.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Universe right now? Oh yeah, everywhere?
- 3:21Speaker 4: Man.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Now I want to move on to Sphere in Vegas.
- 3:25Speaker 2: I saw it back in February, and I think it
- 3:28Speaker 2: was AJ that told me you'll never see another show,
- 3:31Speaker 2: like like, after you see a BSB show at Sphere,
- 3:34Speaker 2: you won't be able to check out another concert.
- 3:36Speaker 1: It'll never be as good. And I got to tell
- 3:38Speaker 1: you it was. It was mind blowing.
- 3:41Speaker 2: And I know you guys extended through summer, and are
- 3:44Speaker 2: there any rumors of it continuing maybe to the end
- 3:47Speaker 2: of the year.
- 3:49Speaker 1: Yes, the silence.
- 3:52Speaker 4: You are to say, I guess you know.
- 3:54Speaker 5: But that's a good sign. Yeah, No, that's a great sign.
- 3:56Speaker 5: Between the lines, I'm just saying yeah, yeah, I mean look, I.
- 4:00Speaker 4: Mean I take back that, yes, so yeah, I meant no,
- 4:04Speaker 4: I don't know. Basically, we're always.
- 4:08Speaker 1: More opportunities.
- 4:09Speaker 5: You can see what's been happening with the Eagles, you see,
- 4:12Speaker 5: but what's been happening with a lot of the other
- 4:13Speaker 5: bands there. They've been extended and it's been going on.
- 4:16Speaker 5: And right now we're focused on this world tour with
- 4:20Speaker 5: the stadiums that we're launching out in Germany, So there's
- 4:25Speaker 5: a mixture between the two. But listen, you know, Vegas
- 4:27Speaker 5: is home for me and it's home for all of us.
- 4:29Speaker 5: You know, Sphere has been an opportunity of the lifetime
- 4:33Speaker 5: and we're just proud to be a part of it.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Well, you know, fans are also always hoping for new music.
- 4:38Speaker 2: So any info on an album? We got the new
- 4:41Speaker 2: song today, but bottle up out today? Yeah what about
- 4:45Speaker 2: an album?
- 4:45Speaker 4: Oh you get us three minutes and twenty seconds. You know,
- 4:51Speaker 4: we're we're talking about it. We've been talking about it.
- 4:54Speaker 4: We've got some We've got a couple of ideas, and
- 4:57Speaker 4: you know, it just takes time. You know. Back has
- 4:59Speaker 4: been pretty big. He pretty blessed with great fans around
- 5:02Speaker 4: the globe and with the Sphere opportunity. Like Nick said,
- 5:05Speaker 4: I mean, it's like who wouldn't want to be in
- 5:07Speaker 4: our shoes and we're blessed to be doing it. But yeah,
- 5:10Speaker 4: new music would I would love to have backshit boys.
- 5:13Speaker 1: In your idea, but you you one one that always
- 5:15Speaker 1: spearheads it. I think it's a great idea.
- 5:17Speaker 4: Thank you, Nick, I appreciate that.
- 5:19Speaker 1: I'm just saying you are first. He is a pretty idea.
- 5:23Speaker 4: So the idea is, so the idea is the difficult
- 5:26Speaker 4: part of putting a Backsha Boys record together is getting
- 5:28Speaker 4: all five of us to agree on all the songs.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Which has always been the case.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's why you guys are good, but now
- 5:35Speaker 2: because you work it out.
- 5:37Speaker 4: Yeah, but now we're very opinionated as five fathers and
- 5:40Speaker 4: you know, we've been doing this in the game for years.
- 5:42Speaker 4: So so I had this idea of picking bringing writing
- 5:47Speaker 4: whatever two songs from each guy, so you're featured on
- 5:51Speaker 4: those songs, but everybody else sings backgrounds. If you want
- 5:54Speaker 4: other guys to sing leads on your song, they can
- 5:56Speaker 4: do that as well. But I think it would be
- 5:58Speaker 4: a great translation to the fans of like where the
- 6:01Speaker 4: Backshoot Boys are now and where we might be headed
- 6:03Speaker 4: in the future.
- 6:04Speaker 3: We are like right now with everything going on, how
- 6:07Speaker 3: we raised the mike. Yeah, this is an interview.
- 6:12Speaker 1: There's your album title.
- 6:14Speaker 2: That's how we raised the mic instead of raised the mics.
- 6:20Speaker 3: But we've been very blessed, I mean with this's great
- 6:22Speaker 3: run that we've had, the twenty fifth anniversary of the
- 6:24Speaker 3: Millennium record, which is.
- 6:25Speaker 1: What the Whole Spheres is about.
- 6:28Speaker 3: And even with that, like we noticed that a lot
- 6:31Speaker 3: of our audience. We didn't realize this until we were
- 6:33Speaker 3: told by some of the promoters from outside of America,
- 6:36Speaker 3: is including this one German promoter who was like a
- 6:39Speaker 3: lot of international people are hasn't to haven't been able
- 6:42Speaker 3: to come to see the show, So why not take
- 6:44Speaker 3: this amazing show adapted into a little bit of a
- 6:47Speaker 3: new life of its own and go over and start
- 6:50Speaker 3: over in Germany on a stadium tour. So we're like,
- 6:54Speaker 3: why not it? It definitely doesn't give us the time
- 6:57Speaker 3: to get right back into the studio and put a
- 6:59Speaker 3: whole another record it out, But it's like we're on
- 7:01Speaker 3: this amazing almost like kind of like nostalgic run right
- 7:04Speaker 3: now that we're like, we're embracing it, probably now more
- 7:07Speaker 3: than ever because we have we've come to realize how
- 7:10Speaker 3: how great of a catalog of hits that we have
- 7:12Speaker 3: that people just want to hear, And it's hard to
- 7:14Speaker 3: even put any new music around that amount of catalog,
- 7:17Speaker 3: even just getting that into a you know, an hour
- 7:19Speaker 3: and a half show.
- 7:20Speaker 2: I want to do that plane trip one more time.
- 7:21Speaker 2: I want to do that plane trip one more time. Yeah,
- 7:23Speaker 2: all right, we'll fly you out this place you want
- 7:25Speaker 2: to be flown out? The German planes not being just
- 7:27Speaker 2: right now, we could borrow one of those.
- 7:28Speaker 4: Can you imagine what that would cost today?
- 7:30Speaker 1: Oh the trip we did back in two thousands, Oh.
- 7:32Speaker 4: My gosh, it costs like two points dollars.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Well, listen, I want to thank you for your time.
- 7:39Speaker 1: I've said this before.
- 7:40Speaker 2: You guys haven't changed since I first met you in
