0:01
Speaker 1: Hey, discos, need a little more disgrace Land in your life,
0:05
Speaker 1: just to touch to get you through. Yeah, me too.
0:08
Speaker 1: This is the podcast that comes after the podcast. Welcome
0:12
Speaker 1: to Disgraceland, the after Party. Welcome to the Disgraceland bonus episode,
0:30
Speaker 1: a little thing we like to call the after party.
0:33
Speaker 1: This is the show after the show, the party after
0:35
Speaker 1: the party, the bridge to get you from one full
0:37
Speaker 1: episode or Disgraceland to the other, the backyard to dig
0:40
Speaker 1: into the dirt. On this bonus episode, we are talking
0:43
Speaker 1: about this week's full episode subject, George Michael. We also
0:46
Speaker 1: discuss those amazing music videos that were directed by future
0:50
Speaker 1: A List filmmakers, as well as a special announcement that
0:54
Speaker 1: we get into that is going to make your ears
0:56
Speaker 1: very happy. And of course we get into your voicemails,
1:00
Speaker 1: text DMS, emails and as always, a whole lot of rosies.
1:03
Speaker 1: All right, disc goes, let's get into it. Arrowsmith, Billy
1:18
Speaker 1: Idol and George Michael. All three of those artists were
1:22
Speaker 1: part of the late eighties early nineties heavy rotation on MTV. Now,
1:26
Speaker 1: if I asked you which of those artists was the
1:28
Speaker 1: more criminal minded? Which of those artists was the batter
1:33
Speaker 1: of the three hell Arrowsmith called themselves the bad Boys
1:36
Speaker 1: of Boston. If I asked you which of those artists
1:39
Speaker 1: were arrested the most, I doubt you'd answer George Michael.
1:44
Speaker 1: I wouldn't yet That's the truth. George Michael was arrested
1:48
Speaker 1: seven times in twelve years, seven times in just twelve years. Now,
1:52
Speaker 1: Billy Idol had his fair share of run ins with
1:54
Speaker 1: the law, and we're going to cover all of them
1:56
Speaker 1: in an upcoming episode on Billy Idol in about a
1:58
Speaker 1: month from now. And we of course got into all
2:01
Speaker 1: of Aarosmith's transgressions, or most of them anyway, in a
2:04
Speaker 1: previous episode of Disgraceland. But in this week's full episode,
2:07
Speaker 1: George Michael seemed just designed to get arrested. At least
2:12
Speaker 1: it seemed that way in the second half of his career.
2:16
Speaker 1: I uncovered another strange connection about George Michael, Arrowsmith and
2:19
Speaker 1: Billie Idol when I was thinking about putting together this
2:24
Speaker 1: bonus episode and talking to you guys, And that connection
2:27
Speaker 1: extends to other great eighties MTV era stars Madonna, Iggy Pop,
2:35
Speaker 1: Don Henley, Michael Jackson in The Rolling Stones. Despite all
2:38
Speaker 1: of those well with the exception of Michael Jackson. Despite
2:41
Speaker 1: all those artists being covered in Disgraceland, they all share
2:44
Speaker 1: something else in common with each other and with George Michael,
2:48
Speaker 1: and that's the fact that they all made great videos
2:52
Speaker 1: directed by the great David Fincher. We know David Fincher
2:56
Speaker 1: now for his incredible film Seven Fight Club, ub Zodiac,
3:01
Speaker 1: which is my favorite of Fincher's movies, The Social Network,
3:05
Speaker 1: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Gone Girl, and a
3:09
Speaker 1: lot more. But we don't really think of David Fincher,
3:14
Speaker 1: at least I didn't. I'm sure some of you do,
3:16
Speaker 1: because you're just more inclined to know this stuff than
3:19
Speaker 1: I am. We don't think of David Fincher as a
3:22
Speaker 1: video director, yet he directed a ton of videos in
3:26
Speaker 1: the nineteen eighties, in the nineteen nineties. And for those
3:30
Speaker 1: artists I just mentioned Billy Idol's Cradle of Love, which
3:33
Speaker 1: is a great video. Aerosmith Jane's Got a Gun another
3:36
Speaker 1: great video, great song too, by the way, For all
3:37
Speaker 1: this shit I give Aerosmith, I love that song, Iggy
3:40
Speaker 1: Pop's song Home, Madonna's Vogue. A ton of Madonna videos,
3:45
Speaker 1: but Vogue is probably her most iconic of the ones
3:48
Speaker 1: that Fincher has directed, and just too many more great
3:51
Speaker 1: videos to list too many, but probably none better than
3:57
Speaker 1: George Michael's Freedom ninety better known as just Freedom, a
4:01
Speaker 1: video George Michael doesn't even appear in, but instead features
4:05
Speaker 1: five countum five smoking hot, next level beautiful supermodels Linda Evangelista,
4:12
Speaker 1: Christy Turlington, Naomi Campbell, Tatiana patitz am I saying that
4:16
Speaker 1: correctly and probably the most beautiful woman in my teenage
4:19
Speaker 1: eyes had ever seen on screen up to that point,
4:21
Speaker 1: Sidney Crawford. Now this video comes out, of course, in
4:25
Speaker 1: an era where the supermodel is being defined, is coming
4:29
Speaker 1: into national prominence, is becoming iconic. This video exploded off
4:35
Speaker 1: of the screen. George Michael completely outdoes himself. This video
4:39
Speaker 1: is a fuck off to George Michael's record label, Sony.
4:43
Speaker 1: George was in a sort of soft war with the
4:45
Speaker 1: label and the executives over there for around his image
4:48
Speaker 1: and the oversaturation of his image to the public via
4:54
Speaker 1: the record labels just NonStop promotion in the demands they
4:58
Speaker 1: put on him, and thus this video for his hit song,
5:01
Speaker 1: he refused to be in it, which is pretty incredible.
5:05
Speaker 1: You know, major pop star, major songwriter, major performer doesn't
5:08
Speaker 1: want to be in a major video. But the video
5:10
Speaker 1: is still a huge success. None of us cared because
5:13
Speaker 1: it had fucking Cindy Crawford in it, not to mention
5:16
Speaker 1: Linda Evangelista and all the others I mentioned. Now, knowing
5:20
Speaker 1: what I now know, it's no surprise to me that
5:23
Speaker 1: this video succeeded without featuring George Michael. And it's not
5:28
Speaker 1: just because of the supermodel hotness that I was just
5:30
Speaker 1: joking about. It's also because we now know that David Fincher,
5:33
Speaker 1: who directed Freedom, is a genius behind the camera. That
5:36
Speaker 1: wasn't He was known as a music video during that
5:39
Speaker 1: music video director during that time. But yeah, I mean this,
5:42
Speaker 1: there's quite a difference between directing great videos and great movies.
5:45
Speaker 1: It's a huge difference. And we get into what it
5:47
Speaker 1: takes to make a movie in the Scorsese episode a
5:49
Speaker 1: couple episodes ago. So this could be thinking about what
5:54
Speaker 1: other now famous directors directed huge music videos from back
5:59
Speaker 1: in the day. And I looked into it, it's a
6:01
Speaker 1: pretty incredible list. I kind of always got this is
6:03
Speaker 1: always in the back of my mind, but I never
6:05
Speaker 1: fully looked into it, and Again, when I was watching
6:08
Speaker 1: these videos as a kid, when most of us were,
6:10
Speaker 1: I didn't care who directed them. I had no concept
6:13
Speaker 1: of that sort of thing, so net for now to me,
6:16
Speaker 1: it's completely compelling. So anyways, in addition to David Fincher, you,
6:21
Speaker 1: of course the obvious one, you have Spike Jones, director
6:24
Speaker 1: of the films being John Malkovich in her with Joaquin Phoenix. Spike, however,
6:30
Speaker 1: famously directed those incredible Beastie Boys videos from the nineteen nineties,
6:34
Speaker 1: Sabotage and Sure Shot, but also videos for Weezer, the Breeders.
6:39
Speaker 1: His Fat Boys Slim video is incredible, and there's a
6:42
Speaker 1: ton of others by Spike Joones. Zack Snyder, Okay, massive
6:47
Speaker 1: director who recently helmed the DC comics Batman franchise way
6:52
Speaker 1: back in the day, directed Soul Asylums Somebody to Shove video,
6:55
Speaker 1: which is a great song. He's directed others as well,
7:00
Speaker 1: but none worth mentioning for my estimation than that Soul
7:04
Speaker 1: Asylum video. Brian Depalmo, one of the greatest directors to
7:07
Speaker 1: come out of the nineteen seventies, would later direct Bruce
7:09
Speaker 1: Springsteen video and a pretty iconic one Bruce is Dancing
7:14
Speaker 1: in the Dark, featuring an unknown actress at the time
7:16
Speaker 1: by the name of Courtney Cox. A guy named Gore Verbinski,
7:20
Speaker 1: the dude who directed the massively successful Pirates of the Caribbean,
7:24
Speaker 1: also directed The Ring, the American version of the Ring
7:26
Speaker 1: he directed Gore. He directed Bad Religion videos back in
7:30
Speaker 1: the day, along with some others. He was even in
7:32
Speaker 1: a band with Brett from Bad Religion for a moment.
7:35
Speaker 1: Michael Bay. Okay, this is the guy who don't know
7:37
Speaker 1: Michael Bay. He's got makes huge, huge action movies, Transformers
7:41
Speaker 1: being I think the top of his IMDb. Michael Bay
7:45
Speaker 1: got his start on MTV making videos from Meatloaf, Britney Fox.
7:49
Speaker 1: If you remember Britney Fox hair Metal, which just kind
7:53
Speaker 1: of makes sense. I don't care about Transformers and I
7:55
Speaker 1: didn't care about Britney Fox. Finally, we gonna mention Brett Ratner, who,
7:59
Speaker 1: before being canceled, made massive Hollywood films like Rush Hour
8:03
Speaker 1: and X Men. He of course got to start directing
8:06
Speaker 1: music videos, hip hop videos, Public Enemy, Wu Tang, Didy,
8:11
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson, as well a ton of others. I think
8:13
Speaker 1: he even did a Madonna video, a Love Courtney Love video,
8:17
Speaker 1: a whole video or maybe a Courtney Love solo I
8:19
Speaker 1: can't remember. Anyways, I found this all to be super interesting,
8:22
Speaker 1: and I'm talking about it here this week specifically for
8:25
Speaker 1: this reason that I'm going to get into here. I'm
8:27
Speaker 1: of course interested in the history of Hollywood, just as
8:31
Speaker 1: I'm interested in music. I'm especially interested in the intersection
8:34
Speaker 1: of Hollywood and true crime, just as I'm interested in
8:36
Speaker 1: the intersection of music history and true crime, which is
8:39
Speaker 1: why a couple of years ago I launched a show
8:41
Speaker 1: called bad Lands. Now, bad Lands looked into the crimes
8:46
Speaker 1: of actors and actresses. For the most part, we did
8:49
Speaker 1: do some episodes that looked into the crimes committed by
8:53
Speaker 1: famous athletes. Badlands was supposed to be a fictional place
8:57
Speaker 1: like Disgraceland for us to discuss any non music related
9:00
Speaker 1: true crimes, but what we ended up doing is focusing
9:03
Speaker 1: mostly on Hollywood and again some on sports. Now hosting
9:07
Speaker 1: that show, hosting bad Lands and Disgraceland, it became too
9:11
Speaker 1: much for me to do, pumping out new episodes every week,
9:15
Speaker 1: doing these bonus episodes for two podcasts, and growing both
9:20
Speaker 1: the shows, plus everything else I got going on. It
9:22
Speaker 1: was just a lot in bad Lands was being neglected,
9:25
Speaker 1: so we stopped producing new Badlands episodes. Anyways, what happened
9:29
Speaker 1: to those episodes? Those episodes went away? Okay, they went
9:32
Speaker 1: out of the feed. They're gone. I get asked all
9:34
Speaker 1: the time from you guys, Hey, where'd the Badlands episodes go? Well,
9:38
Speaker 1: we pulled them down for reasons that I'm not going
9:39
Speaker 1: to get into here, but basically, we stopped producing episodes
9:42
Speaker 1: of the show, new episodes, and we didn't have any
9:45
Speaker 1: plan at that time to start producing new ones. So
9:50
Speaker 1: that's one of the reasons. Having that archive of almost
9:53
Speaker 1: one hundred plus episodes on Hollywood actors and actresses, having
9:57
Speaker 1: those bad Lands episodes up, it didn't make sense. We
9:59
Speaker 1: took them down and for some other reasons. Again I'm
10:01
Speaker 1: not going to go into those here, but I am
10:04
Speaker 1: here to tell you right now that a large swath
10:08
Speaker 1: of those Badlands episodes are coming back, and they are
10:12
Speaker 1: available for you to listen to right now in the
10:16
Speaker 1: same bad Lands feed, but now titled simply Hollywoodland. Okay,
10:21
Speaker 1: in the Hollywood Land feed right now, you'll be able
10:23
Speaker 1: to hear me talking about the wild lives and true
10:26
Speaker 1: crimes of people like James Dean Charlie Sheen, Sean Penn,
10:30
Speaker 1: Drew Barrymore, Danny Trejo, Patty Hurst, Mel Gibson, so many more.
10:34
Speaker 1: And all these hollywood Land episodes are produced by Double
10:37
Speaker 1: Elvis in the exact same way as Disgraceland. If you're
10:41
Speaker 1: new to Disgraceland, if you've joined this Disgraceland community in
10:44
Speaker 1: the last year or so, these Hollywoodland episodes are produced
10:49
Speaker 1: exactly like Disgraceland. Me at the Helm on the mic,
10:54
Speaker 1: double Elvis production, all the sound design, all the edge
10:58
Speaker 1: of your seat storytelling you've grown to love of. It's
11:00
Speaker 1: all in hollywood Land. It's just a different subject, Okay,
11:03
Speaker 1: It's just it's just Hollywood and not music. And right
11:06
Speaker 1: now there's almost forty episodes available for you to listen to,
11:08
Speaker 1: like I said, in the Hollywood Land Feed formally bad
11:11
Speaker 1: Lands Feed right now, and every week we're going to
11:14
Speaker 1: drop another episode from the archive. Episodes on David Lynch,
11:18
Speaker 1: Bruce Lee, John Waters, John Belushi, Lindsay Lohan, Robert Downey Junior,
11:23
Speaker 1: so many others, all of them, they're all going to
11:25
Speaker 1: release in the hollywood Land Feed until eventually nearly all
11:28
Speaker 1: of the one hundred previously titled Badlands episodes will be
11:31
Speaker 1: available as hollywood Land. You're going to get another episode
11:34
Speaker 1: every week. Right now, there's a ton of them available
11:36
Speaker 1: for you. There's like forty or so available for you
11:38
Speaker 1: to binge, and every week for the rest of the year,
11:41
Speaker 1: you're going to get another episode in the feed, until
11:44
Speaker 1: eventually we begin releasing new episodes of hollywood Land, but
11:49
Speaker 1: with a slight modification. More on that in the future,
11:52
Speaker 1: but for now, all you get to know is at
11:54
Speaker 1: beginning this week, right now, you can listen to a
11:56
Speaker 1: whole bunch of archive episodes of bad Lands, now titled
11:59
Speaker 1: hollywood Land. And then in two weeks time, after you've
12:01
Speaker 1: had some time to binge those hollywood Land episodes, we
12:03
Speaker 1: will begin dropping other hollywood Land episodes in the feed
12:06
Speaker 1: once a week for you to listen to them and
12:07
Speaker 1: be talking about them here in the after party, and
12:10
Speaker 1: to do a little hollywood Land segment for you. I'm
12:12
Speaker 1: looking at this whole thing as like a video archive
12:14
Speaker 1: of sorts, you know, like a nineteen eighties sort of
12:17
Speaker 1: like cable Access TV show where some dude has a
12:21
Speaker 1: bunch of vhs is stacked up in his basement and
12:24
Speaker 1: he goes in there and he pulls out one story
12:26
Speaker 1: per week and he talks to his community about them,
12:29
Speaker 1: and he teas up that story. That's how I'm going
12:32
Speaker 1: to be approaching this in these hollywood Land episodes here
12:35
Speaker 1: in the after Party, I'll be highlighting one per week,
12:38
Speaker 1: and we can talk about him if you want, here,
12:40
Speaker 1: on social media or wherever, and they'll be there for
12:43
Speaker 1: you as we unleash this entire archive for you, make
12:47
Speaker 1: it all available, and then get into producing new episodes
12:50
Speaker 1: of hollywood Land, and then eventually our sports episodes that
12:53
Speaker 1: were previously produced and released into the bad Lands Moniker
12:55
Speaker 1: will eventually be released in their own Sportsland feed, and
12:58
Speaker 1: in a couple of weeks, our Icon series we've been
13:00
Speaker 1: doing for the last year, as I mentioned before, will
13:03
Speaker 1: end in the disgrace Sland feed, and Disgraceland will once
13:06
Speaker 1: again be solely music subjects. So to hear me tell

13:51
Speaker 1: announcement complete, back to Disgraceland. Here in Disgraceland, we've got
13:56
Speaker 1: a Rewind episode coming out right after this on Sam Cook,
13:58
Speaker 1: and next week we have an Alison Chain's episode before you. Okay,
14:02
Speaker 1: when you're listening to the Alice in Chains episode, I
14:04
Speaker 1: want you, guys to be thinking about your record collection
14:07
Speaker 1: and which Seattle artists, which grunge artists do you find
14:11
Speaker 1: yourself listening to the most. Now. I know, we all
14:15
Speaker 1: love Alison Chains, we all love Nirvana, we all love
14:19
Speaker 1: Pearl Jam. I'll say it, I love Pearl Jam. I
14:21
Speaker 1: don't know why I have a hard time admitting that.
14:23
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe because my wife hates him and
14:25
Speaker 1: she gives me so much shit. I love Soundgarden, Melvin's
14:30
Speaker 1: Mud Honey, so many great Seattle bands, anyhow, of those
14:35
Speaker 1: great Seattle artists songwriters. Now, think of your record collection,
14:39
Speaker 1: which one do you go to the most? Are you
14:41
Speaker 1: more of a Pearl Jam person? Are you more of
14:43
Speaker 1: a Soundgarden person? Are you more of an Alison Chains person? Nirvana?
14:47
Speaker 1: Who who are you still listening to? I, for one,
14:49
Speaker 1: probably think Nirvana is the most important Seattle band to
14:56
Speaker 1: come out of that area, out of the grunge Ara.
15:01
Speaker 1: Kurt Cobain was obviously an incredible songwriter for some reason. However,
15:07
Speaker 1: even though I give them more importance historically than any
15:11
Speaker 1: of these other artists, and they're sort of bigger in
15:13
Speaker 1: my head, Nirvana is and Kurt is as a songwriter,
15:17
Speaker 1: I don't listen to them nearly as much as I
15:21
Speaker 1: as I listened to Soundgarden. For me, of all these artists,
15:25
Speaker 1: it's Soundgarden that I listened to the most. And just
15:28
Speaker 1: by the way, side note, I saw a little clip
15:30
Speaker 1: of the Melvins on X the other night playing a
15:34
Speaker 1: Black Sabbath song from nineteen ninety four, and it just
15:36
Speaker 1: reminded me of how fucking incredible that band is. Anyhow,
15:40
Speaker 1: I want to know which Seattle band that's gonna be
15:42
Speaker 1: the question of the week next next week, Which Seattle
15:45
Speaker 1: band do you go back to and listen to the most?
15:47
Speaker 1: Still to now to right now? Okay, we had a
15:49
Speaker 1: great caller a couple of weeks ago talking about she's
15:51
Speaker 1: from Seattle, talking about how the Seattle artists didn't speak
15:55
Speaker 1: to her at all. She was listening to you too
15:58
Speaker 1: back in the day. I thought that was fansastic. But
16:00
Speaker 1: the question of the week, when you get that Alison
16:02
Speaker 1: Chains episode coming your way, is going to be which
16:04
Speaker 1: Seattle artist do you find yourself still listening to the
16:07
Speaker 1: most of all of them? Who is it?
16:09
Speaker 2: All Right, I'll take a quick break back in a flash.
16:30
Speaker 1: All right, we are back, And just a quick reminder
16:32
Speaker 1: to make sure you Apple podcast listeners have auto downloads
16:35
Speaker 1: turned on so you're not missing any episodes. All right,
16:37
Speaker 1: six one seven nine oh six six six three eight
16:40
Speaker 1: to leave me a voicemail or send me a text
16:42
Speaker 1: or DM me at Disgrace Slam Pod. Last week, the
16:46
Speaker 1: question of the Week was in anticipation of the George
16:50
Speaker 1: Michael episode that we were releasing. We asked which of
16:52
Speaker 1: those eighties MTV icons resonated with you the most, Which
16:57
Speaker 1: did you like the most? Which hate you the most?
16:59
Speaker 1: Is a cad And let's listen to this voicemail from
17:03
Speaker 1: Johnny in the six one seven.
17:05
Speaker 3: Hey, what's up Jake? Johnny Vinyl here responding to my
17:09
Speaker 3: favorite video stars of the early eighties MTV era easily
17:15
Speaker 3: Duran Duran their first album, they had those like, you know, weird, dark,
17:20
Speaker 3: gloomy videos, except for Girls on Film, which was very sexual,
17:26
Speaker 3: so sexual in fact, that it actually got banned from
17:28
Speaker 3: MTV and replaced by another video, another version that was
17:33
Speaker 3: much lighter. And then of course them having the three
17:36
Speaker 3: big hits off of the Rio album, which is Rio,
17:39
Speaker 3: Saved Like a Prayer and Hungry Like the Wolf, all
17:42
Speaker 3: filmed in Sri Lanka on the really really hot you
17:46
Speaker 3: know the hot the hot surface of the sand and
17:50
Speaker 3: all the guys were you know, getting close to and
17:53
Speaker 3: heat stroke and whatnot, made those incredible videos. And then
17:56
Speaker 3: of course the next album seven and the Ragged Tiger
17:59
Speaker 3: Verry James Bond Vibe videos. They were very good at
18:02
Speaker 3: being the matic with their videos depending upon which album.
18:07
Speaker 3: But yes, definitely Duran Duran in the early eighties, and
18:10
Speaker 3: that's my cake. Take it easy, buddy, Johnny.
18:12
Speaker 1: It's funny you mentioned Duran Duran for two reasons. One,
18:15
Speaker 1: I was watching White Lotus last night and I noticed
18:17
Speaker 1: that there's an actress on White Lotus named Charlene Lebon,
18:23
Speaker 1: and I said to myself, I wonder if that's Simon
18:25
Speaker 1: Lebon's daughter. How many labonds are there. I've never heard
18:28
Speaker 1: of a Lebon besides Simon Lebon, and I completely forgot
18:32
Speaker 1: about it until get into recording this episode this morning,
18:36
Speaker 1: which I'm recording early because I'm traveling to New York
18:38
Speaker 1: this week. But anyhow, Duran Duran, what I gotta say.
18:43
Speaker 1: Probably yeah for me, definitely one of the first I
18:47
Speaker 1: actually bought Rio on vinylists a little kid. I was
18:51
Speaker 1: so into those videos. They freaked me out. Something about
18:53
Speaker 1: the animalism of it, all the rock and roll animal thing.
18:56
Speaker 1: Maybe that's it. But yeah, I hear you Duran Duran.
18:59
Speaker 1: And now that I'm older, I have you know. I
19:02
Speaker 1: was into them as a kid, like a real little kid,
19:04
Speaker 1: and then just completely never gave them any thought as
19:06
Speaker 1: an adolescent or young adult. But when I hear durand
19:10
Speaker 1: Urand song. Now, man, I bumped that shit. I love it.
19:12
Speaker 1: Those classic eighties Duranda Urand songs are fantastic. And I
19:15
Speaker 1: think there's actually a great durand Drand's Graycend episode somewhere
19:19
Speaker 1: somewhere to be told at some point. So Johnny, appreciate you.
19:23
Speaker 1: Let's check in with Heidi in the eight three eight Hei. Kay, Yes, Heidi, Philadelphia.
19:29
Speaker 3: I'm just listening to your bonus episodes and you mentioned
19:33
Speaker 3: about the eighty favorite. I have to say to day
19:37
Speaker 3: Off for she is still one of my all time favorites.
19:41
Speaker 3: She was to be fantastic Ben and.
19:45
Speaker 4: She's fantastic now. She even doesn't do it with Henry Rollins.
19:49
Speaker 3: It's beautiful.
19:51
Speaker 1: So yeah, just ones of that message and have a
19:56
Speaker 1: great day Barcarola. Okay, Cindy Lauper and Henry Rollins, thank
20:00
Speaker 1: you for reminding me of that. Also, Cindy Lapper, of course,
20:03
Speaker 1: I mean you just mentioned eighties MTV and she's probably
20:06
Speaker 1: the first one that springs to mind. Cindy Lapper of
20:10
Speaker 1: course known as the mainstream pop video artist that she was.
20:16
Speaker 1: But you know, she came from New York. She came
20:19
Speaker 1: sort of from that punk scene, that avant garde scene
20:22
Speaker 1: in New York in the early eighties, late seventies, early eighties.
20:25
Speaker 1: Her covering res above by Black Flag with Henry Rollins
20:29
Speaker 1: is surprising on the surface, but not if you know
20:33
Speaker 1: the history of Cindy Lapper. We get into Cindy Lapper
20:36
Speaker 1: a little bit in our Cramps episode. You guys shoul
20:38
Speaker 1: check that out if you haven't. I just want to say,
20:39
Speaker 1: I've been seeing these Henry Rollinds clips, interview clips from
20:43
Speaker 1: the nineties pop up in my feeds, and there's one
20:47
Speaker 1: I think I might have mentioned this before. There's one
20:49
Speaker 1: with Kennedy from the nineties, and the sexual tension between
20:52
Speaker 1: Henry Rollins and Kennedy is you can see it, you
20:57
Speaker 1: can feel it. It is so prevalent. There's no way
21:02
Speaker 1: they didn't have sex. After watching this interview, you're just like, Wow,
21:06
Speaker 1: they fucked. It's incredible. I just sort of like filed
21:11
Speaker 1: that away as Wow, that was interesting. You'd probably never
21:13
Speaker 1: see that nowadays. Then the other day another interview came up.
21:17
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if it was MTV. It looked like
21:18
Speaker 1: an MTV set. It was definitely from the nineties. It's
21:21
Speaker 1: Henry Rollins talking largely about Green Day and their massive
21:25
Speaker 1: success at the time. It's right around the time of
21:28
Speaker 1: their first album. When was that ninety four ninety three
21:31
Speaker 1: something like that, their first major label album, and that's
21:34
Speaker 1: what the interview's about. I don't recognize the interviewers, but
21:37
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean it's not MTV. It could be like
21:41
Speaker 1: Much Music or something. I'm not sure. Anyhow, they talk
21:44
Speaker 1: about the artist they talk about like young pop's starlets,
21:49
Speaker 1: and they talk about Brandy and someone mentions that she's
21:53
Speaker 1: too young, and Henry Rollins almost says, she's not too
21:58
Speaker 1: young for me. It's really really like on the edge. Really,
22:03
Speaker 1: it's really something. And if you know Rollins, he's he's
22:07
Speaker 1: super charismatic in these interviews, and he's you can tell
22:12
Speaker 1: he's relishing, and just how the interview's going and the
22:15
Speaker 1: hold he has on the folks who are interviewing him,
22:19
Speaker 1: and almost that feeling of like he can say anything,
22:22
Speaker 1: you know, Like it's just the chemistry between the interviewer
22:25
Speaker 1: and the interview is so is so there. It's like
22:27
Speaker 1: just boom boom boom snappin'. Uh No, I don't mean
22:32
Speaker 1: to insinuate that Rollins was suggesting that he likes sex
22:37
Speaker 1: with underage girls or anything like that. I think his
22:42
Speaker 1: his his wit perhaps and his quickness verbal quickness was
22:46
Speaker 1: getting ahead of his brain. My point, however, is that
22:50
Speaker 1: that would never happen today. It would never fly today,
22:53
Speaker 1: of course, and for good reason. But it was just
22:55
Speaker 1: interesting to see how dated the nineties now are becoming.
23:01
Speaker 1: It was really, it was really anterous. He checked that
23:02
Speaker 1: interview out if you can, or just I don't know,
23:04
Speaker 1: google Rollins and comments on green Bay. Maybe that interview
23:08
Speaker 1: will come up. I love Rollins. By the way, I'm
23:10
Speaker 1: not judging Rollins. I'm just saying I'm judging the time
23:12
Speaker 1: more than anything else. Anyhow, I didn't mean to go
23:15
Speaker 1: down that Henry Rollins tangent there. Thanks Heidi, appreciate you.
23:18
Speaker 1: Play the four to one oer Matt. Let's listen to
23:20
Speaker 1: this this one on YouTube.
23:22
Speaker 4: Hey Jacobs Craig from Baltimore. My favorite Irish band has
23:26
Speaker 4: to be you two is my first formal concert experience.
23:29
Speaker 4: August sixteenth, nineteen ninety one, sixteen year old kid in
23:33
Speaker 4: the middle of the field at RFK Stadium. Imagine getting
23:36
Speaker 4: to see YouTube the hepe Probably their popularity touring the
23:40
Speaker 4: Zoo TV tour after their Auto Davy album, which was
23:45
Speaker 4: kind of their experimental album, but it really grew on me,
23:48
Speaker 4: and I was a sixteen year old kid in the
23:50
Speaker 4: crowd of fifty thousand people on the field at RFK Stadium,
23:54
Speaker 4: so it couldn't start off with a better show than that.
23:58
Speaker 4: Ben Lizzy has grown on me though, because my favorite
24:00
Speaker 4: current band, the whole SETI plays them as their walkout
24:03
Speaker 4: song boys are back in town or deal breaks for
24:06
Speaker 4: their massive nights Brooklyn residencies they do every year. So
24:10
Speaker 4: great show, love it.
24:12
Speaker 1: Thanks a lot for on Oh, thanks for the message,
24:14
Speaker 1: thanks to the voicemail, Craig. Of course we're playing this
24:17
Speaker 1: one to you guys because we just like I think
24:19
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier in this episode, we had a rewind
24:21
Speaker 1: episode recently on you two. If you haven't heard it,
24:23
Speaker 1: go check that out. Craig, Seeing you too in ninety one,
24:28
Speaker 1: my god, that's that's huge. There's a lot of great
24:31
Speaker 1: eras to see you two in. You know you could
24:33
Speaker 1: earlier they did that club run in the beginning, we
24:36
Speaker 1: were all too young for that, but seeing them in
24:39
Speaker 1: ninety one would be that's prime era, Like you said,
24:43
Speaker 1: was Zoo Zoo Tour, which I didn't love. I didn't
24:46
Speaker 1: love that sort of imagery and all that. Oktung baby,
24:50
Speaker 1: of course I love it all more now. That seems
24:52
Speaker 1: to be a familiar theme. I think I'm mentioning that
24:54
Speaker 1: almost every every episode now of how I like things
24:56
Speaker 1: I used to dislike. But yeah, at our stadium as well,
25:01
Speaker 1: amazing And I love the whole steady Thin Lizzie connection
25:04
Speaker 1: as well. Very cool. All right, guys, you want to
25:06
Speaker 1: leave me a voicemail, you want to send me a
25:07
Speaker 1: text on anything? Question of the week next week is
25:09
Speaker 1: going to be on your favorite Seattle grunge songwriters slash
25:13
Speaker 1: artists six one seven nine oh six six six three eight.

25:20
Speaker 1: one four. Hey Jake, Sammy from the six to one four,
25:23
Speaker 1: huge fan of the podcast, have been listening for years.
25:25
Speaker 1: In light of the holiday weekend, he's referencing Saint Patrick's Day.
25:29
Speaker 1: One of my favorite bands from Ireland is Gaelic Storm
25:32
Speaker 1: from Galway. They're a fun combination of traditional fiddle, pub
25:35
Speaker 1: tunes and modern s pop and they come every year
25:37
Speaker 1: to our Irish Restval in August. Fortunately, unfortunately, they are
25:40
Speaker 1: getting so popular it's hard to get close to the
25:42
Speaker 1: tent to see them, so I try to catch their
25:44
Speaker 1: shows at the Newport whenever they are in town. Again.
25:46
Speaker 1: Love the show and can't wait to hear what stories
25:49
Speaker 1: you have in store for the loyal fans. Thanks for everything.
25:51
Speaker 1: Rock a rolla that's from the six one four. All right,
25:54
Speaker 1: I gotta check out Gaelic Storm. I love that. I
25:56
Speaker 1: love when I get a recommendation I have no idea about.
25:59
Speaker 1: And that's I've never heard of Gaelic Storm. I'm stoked
26:03
Speaker 1: to hear it. Three h four rights in Hey, requesting

Speaker 1: Two five three rights in old Mandz from Washington State.
26:16
Speaker 1: My favorite Irish band, House of Pain Jump around baby. Yes,
26:21
Speaker 1: I realize they are in a rock band, but an
26:22
Speaker 1: influential group. Nonetheless, they are not a rock band. They
26:25
Speaker 1: are influential and they are Irish, though they're not from Ireland.
26:30
Speaker 1: I don't believe unce I'm missing something and I don't
26:32
Speaker 1: know much about how Sapain saw him on that first
26:34
Speaker 1: tour though, with rage against the machine opening up? How
26:37
Speaker 1: about that at the ICA in Boston, tiny little place.
26:42
Speaker 1: That's awesome five seven three Rights in some kind words,

Speaker 1: you want to leave me a voicemail, you can DM

Speaker 1: me as well at Disgrace Slam Pod on x on Instagram,
26:57
Speaker 1: on Facebook. Miranda g Gillian Rights in Pussy Riot, you
27:00
Speaker 1: need to do an episode on Pussy Riot. They dared
27:03
Speaker 1: to stand up to Putin and they lost it. They
27:05
Speaker 1: have stories to tell about prisons, rebellion and female advocacy
27:08
Speaker 1: in the spirit of rock and roll rebellion. They definitely
27:11
Speaker 1: checked that metaphorical box. Just the thought. Love the podcast, Miranda,
27:15
Speaker 1: Love your suggestion. We'll do an episode on Pussy Riot
27:19
Speaker 1: at some point. Linda Nolan writes in a little note
27:22
Speaker 1: that I should be reading the Rick Rubin book and
27:24
Speaker 1: that he narrates it on Spotify. And I haven't read
27:26
Speaker 1: this book yet and I need to. I think I
27:29
Speaker 1: own it. I think someone gave it to me. I
27:31
Speaker 1: think it's in a box of books that I haven't
27:32
Speaker 1: unpacked yet. And I'm also fascinated by Rick Rubin, sort
27:37
Speaker 1: of every time a quote of his flashes across the feed,
27:41
Speaker 1: I'm interested in what that guy's got to say. So
27:44
Speaker 1: thank you Linda for reminding me. Then over on Facebook,
27:47
Speaker 1: and I apologize in advance if I mess up the
27:51
Speaker 1: pronunciation of this last name, Anthony the petron Pittrntonio de Petrontonio,
27:58
Speaker 1: the Pietrontonio. I don't know Anthony, I'm sorry. But Anthony
28:02
Speaker 1: writes and Irish bluesman rocker unsung seventies guitar god Rory
28:07
Speaker 1: Gallagher from Anthony Dean Cambridge. You know, I gotta admit
28:10
Speaker 1: I got a blind spot. I got blind years when
28:13
Speaker 1: it comes to Rory Gallagher, and I gotta get into it.
28:15
Speaker 1: Where do I start? Anthony? Hit me back, give me
28:18
Speaker 1: a good recommendation, a place to start with Rory Gallagher? Okay?
28:21
Speaker 1: I want to know Derek sterk Derek Sturkey on Facebook.
28:24
Speaker 1: Rights Hey, Jake caught the comments about Peter Frampton playing
28:27
Speaker 1: for David Bowie. I didn't realize that it was not
28:29
Speaker 1: general knowledge. I saw the La stop on Glass Spider's
28:32
Speaker 1: tour was thrilled to see Frampton alongside Bowie. Here's one
28:36
Speaker 1: light article on the tour. Thanks Derek, appreciate that we
28:40
Speaker 1: were talking about that a couple episodes back. You guys
28:42
Speaker 1: don't miss anything I like that about you, among many
28:45
Speaker 1: other things. This is something that caught my eye on
28:48
Speaker 1: X from hair Metal Messiah. Has nothing to do with
28:51
Speaker 1: Disgrace and other than the fact that we talked about this,
28:52
Speaker 1: that we did an episode on this artist, and I
28:55
Speaker 1: just want to read this. It's from last week and
28:58
Speaker 1: it says it's about ACDC and it sums up ACDC
29:02
Speaker 1: in a way that I wish I had summed this
29:04
Speaker 1: up in my episode. Again, this is from hair Metal Messiah.
29:08
Speaker 1: Acdc's Highway to Hell isn't just an album, It's a
29:11
Speaker 1: goddamn prophecy. In nineteen seventy nine, while the rest of
29:15
Speaker 1: the world was fumbling around with disco and soft rock,
29:19
Speaker 1: these maniacs were writing the blueprint for every hard rock
29:23
Speaker 1: and metal band today. Bond Scott sounds like he gargled glass,
29:27
Speaker 1: lit a cigarette and chased it with a warm six pack,
29:30
Speaker 1: while Angus Young shreds beating around the bush and walk
29:33
Speaker 1: all over you like a possessed madman, cranking out rifts
29:36
Speaker 1: hotter than Hell itself. Every song is a fist to
29:40
Speaker 1: the face, a boot to the teeth, and a middle
29:44
Speaker 1: finger to convention. This record was decades ahead of its time,
29:48
Speaker 1: and if you don't feel it, go buy a Beg's album,
29:51
Speaker 1: light a lavender candle, and cry yourself to sleep. You know.
29:55
Speaker 1: Aside from all the sort of like tough guy boasting
29:57
Speaker 1: in that tweet, the thing that I like about it
30:00
Speaker 1: is that it talks about Highway to Hell in its
30:03
Speaker 1: place and time, and it's true it was ahead of
30:07
Speaker 1: its time, and I don't think of it that way
30:09
Speaker 1: because Highway to Hell have become it's so huge. It's
30:11
Speaker 1: such a huge classic rock song now. And I also
30:14
Speaker 1: don't think of that album as the great banger that
30:16
Speaker 1: it is, where they're like, like the person who tweeted
30:19
Speaker 1: that says, there's not a bad song on it. Every
30:21
Speaker 1: song on that album just crushes it, And uh yeah,
30:27
Speaker 1: I just I saw that. I thought it was interesting.
30:29
Speaker 1: I wanted to read it to you guys, And again,
30:30
Speaker 1: we got that ACDC episode in our archive. If you
30:33
Speaker 1: are interested, all right, I'm gonna take a quick break.
30:35

Speaker 1: of dms. Greg Plas writes in Hey Jake, Fantastic Show.
31:39
Speaker 1: Greg Plass also answers the question I asked in the
31:41
Speaker 1: last block. My number one Irish musician is Rory Gallagher.
31:45
Speaker 1: Possibly my favorite guitar player of all time depending on
31:48
Speaker 1: what mood I'm in that day. Irish Tour seventy four, Well,
31:51
Speaker 1: I'm Irish in seventy four was a damn good year.
31:54
Speaker 1: If You're me is an absolute classic. Keep up the
31:56
Speaker 1: great work, my friend, Greg, Greg. I appreciate it. Greg.
32:00
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna bump that today when I'm working out.
32:02
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go for Irish Tourist seventy four. Rory Gallagher
32:05
Speaker 1: Disgray sampod at gmail dot com. You guys want to
32:07
Speaker 1: get in touch about anything else, Knox Bronson writes in Hey,
32:11
Speaker 1: love your episode on Zeppelin, especially the part about David Bowie.
32:14
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that White Stains was an Alistair Crowley book,
32:18
Speaker 1: as name checked in Station to Station. In a nineteen
32:21
Speaker 1: seventy five interview, Bowie said something to the effect of
32:23
Speaker 1: I'm not evil. Alice Cooper isn't evil, lou isn't evil,
32:28
Speaker 1: but there are evil bands. Just look at led Zeppelin.
32:32
Speaker 1: This is a fascinating topic to me. Thank you, Knox Bronson.
32:36
Speaker 1: David Bowie's fear of Jimmy Page and the power of
32:41
Speaker 1: the dark evil power that he felt that Led Zeppelin possessed.
32:46
Speaker 1: That story never gets old to me, and not a
32:49
Speaker 1: lot has been has been has been said about it.
32:52
Speaker 1: Not enough, I should say, has been said about it.
32:54
Speaker 1: I certainly said my piece, but I wasn't there. I
32:57
Speaker 1: can only say what others have said, and I can
32:59
Speaker 1: only contextualize it in the larger story as I see
33:01
Speaker 1: it now. I did not see any of this evil
33:06
Speaker 1: evident in the recent led Zeppelin documentary, which I loved,
33:10
Speaker 1: but which you know, I think I mentioned here. I
33:12
Speaker 1: did have my I did have issues with it. I
33:15
Speaker 1: wanted it to be so much more, and this was
33:18
Speaker 1: not represented in any way. And I don't mean I
33:22
Speaker 1: get why Jimmy Page doesn't want people talking about him
33:25
Speaker 1: and Alistair Crowley living in his house and the black
33:27
Speaker 1: Dog and all that stuff. We're doing cocaine and scaring
33:30
Speaker 1: the shit out of Jimmy Page, but you know, we're
33:34
Speaker 1: completely missing the point of led Zeppelin if we gloss
33:37
Speaker 1: past the part of their history that is that darkness
33:41
Speaker 1: and what it represented, and how somebody like David Bowie
33:45
Speaker 1: was legitimately scared of Jimmy Page. Fascinating stuff. Thank you
33:49
Speaker 1: Dox Bonsor for reminding me that disgrace sampod at gmail
33:53
Speaker 1: dot com. This one comes from Shane Schmidt, subject we
33:58
Speaker 1: need the Anti Flag story message. I'm a longtime listener
34:03
Speaker 1: and a huge fan of the show, and up until now,
34:04
Speaker 1: I never really had a reason to write in. Much
34:06
Speaker 1: like Jake, I'm an old punk from the nineties with
34:09
Speaker 1: a true love for all forms of music, and I'm
34:10
Speaker 1: fascinated by its history, as ugly as the stories may
34:14
Speaker 1: be at times, so imagine the surprise I fell a
34:17
Speaker 1: few weeks ago when I was reading up on one
34:19
Speaker 1: of my favorite bands and discover they had broken up
34:23
Speaker 1: due to the horrible actions of and allegations against Justin
34:27
Speaker 1: Sane and to a lesser degree, his band, Anti Flag,
34:31
Speaker 1: a band whose genre is meant to be a safe
34:34
Speaker 1: haven and who always claimed to stand for equality, human
34:37
Speaker 1: rights and claim to be feminists, forced to disband and
34:40
Speaker 1: see their front man flee the country due to allegations
34:44
Speaker 1: of sexual assault, grooming, and statutory rape. Now that's a
34:48
Speaker 1: true disgrace and we need this story to be told. Anyways,
34:52
Speaker 1: Please keep up the great work and forgive my rambling.
34:54
Speaker 1: I do that when I'm nervous. Thank you, Shane Schmidt. Shane,
34:57
Speaker 1: you know this story cross my view, and I thought
35:01
Speaker 1: about it, and I'm still thinking about it, and I
35:03
Speaker 1: looked into it a dt bit. I'll look into it more,
35:06
Speaker 1: but my first inclination is that the story hasn't yet resolved.
35:11
Speaker 1: There's still more to come out. It's tough for me
35:14
Speaker 1: to get into the middle of an ongoing story as
35:16
Speaker 1: I'm experiencing now with this whole Diddy thing, which has
35:19
Speaker 1: turned out to be a huge pain in my ass.
35:22
Speaker 1: If I'm being perfectly honest with you and trying to
35:24
Speaker 1: keep up with everything, that's all the truth, all the conjecture,
35:29
Speaker 1: the transgressions that are real, the transgressions that are fiction.
35:32
Speaker 1: I can't wait for this ditty trial to actually start,
35:35
Speaker 1: so there could be a punctuation point at the end
35:37
Speaker 1: of this story and I can cover it for in
35:39
Speaker 1: some finality and tell you exactly what happened and all
35:42
Speaker 1: the drama behind it. Anti flag. I feel like it's
35:45
Speaker 1: not completely told yet, but I will get into it
35:47
Speaker 1: once I feel like more of the story has settled.
35:50
Speaker 1: Promise you that. Disgrace sampod at gmail dot com. If
35:53
Speaker 1: you guys have any other suggestions on stories, I just
35:55
Speaker 1: want to rant about anything else. Dane Zerbie writes in
