5:01
SPEAKER_08: It hasn't with me, it's just too much.
5:03
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.

SPEAKER_08: Just for two guys, I mean we might as well be, you know, big brother in the holding company.
5:09
SPEAKER_08: You know what I mean?

5:24

SPEAKER_01: And so so my wife, we were too driving in the car last weekend, I think it was, and I told her that we were gonna have to come up with a name.
5:31
SPEAKER_01: And she's like, Why are you coming up with another name?
5:34
SPEAKER_01: You know, because for for for marketing purposes, you should kind of remain one thing, you know, for a while.
5:42
SPEAKER_01: And and I was like, Well, you're taking all the fun out of it.
5:44
SPEAKER_01: But anyway.
5:45
SPEAKER_08: So Well, if I had my way, and it wouldn't be very confusing, I would change our name every single gig.
5:55
SPEAKER_08: How much how much fun would that be?
5:57
SPEAKER_08: That would be just coming up with new names all the time.
5:59
SPEAKER_08: Wait, that this is Brian and Doug.
6:02
SPEAKER_08: What?
6:05
SPEAKER_01: Who are the barking wall spiders?

6:18
SPEAKER_08: Yeah, B Mo and the Gandhi dancers.
6:20
SPEAKER_01: Ah, yeah, we've got to bring that one back.
6:21
SPEAKER_01: So so the promoter reached out to me again today and said, we're putting to together the promotional stuff today, and we need a name.
6:30
SPEAKER_01: So I messaged you and uh said, We need to we need to we need to throw out a name.
6:37
SPEAKER_01: And one of the ones that we had talked about using in the past was BMO and the deal.
6:42
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
6:43
SPEAKER_01: So I listed that and I listed a bunch of other ones, and you were like, Well, BMO and the deal, that's cool.
6:48

6:49
SPEAKER_01: That's that's it.
6:49
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
6:50
SPEAKER_01: And so I said, Okay.
6:52

7:00
SPEAKER_01: And I'll get you a pick, you know, as soon as I can.

SPEAKER_01: That's I don't know.
7:14
SPEAKER_01: Why would you I why are you changing that's a terrible name?

SPEAKER_01: Well, you know, we we taught and we talked about this a little bit um with their latest album, which is called Forever.
15:52
SPEAKER_01: Um they released three songs ahead of time, I think.
15:58
SPEAKER_01: Three or four.
15:59
SPEAKER_01: And they did a whole thing where Bon Jovi talked about every song on the album and and did video, you know, vignettes about every song on the album.
16:08
SPEAKER_01: Right.
16:09
SPEAKER_01: He did tons and tons and tons of press.
16:13
SPEAKER_01: Well, he was on Jeopardy.
16:14
SPEAKER_01: He was he?
16:15
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
16:15
SPEAKER_01: I didn't know that.
16:16
SPEAKER_08: Yeah, he had his own category.
16:18
SPEAKER_08: You know, it was like, you know, if somebody chose it, they'd be like, and here's John.
16:21
SPEAKER_08: And he would ask the, you know, he'd give the answer, and then would he plug the new album?
16:26
SPEAKER_01: I have no idea.
16:27
SPEAKER_08: I wasn't really paying attention.
16:28
SPEAKER_08: I was only kind of half paying attention to it.
16:30
SPEAKER_01: Right.
16:30
SPEAKER_08: Because, you know, I mean, how smart is John Bon Jovi?
16:33
SPEAKER_08: You know, I I don't think he could be contested on no no offense to him.
16:37
SPEAKER_01: Right, no, no.
16:38
SPEAKER_08: He couldn't be on Jeopardy.
16:39
SPEAKER_01: Probably not.
16:39
SPEAKER_01: So he would say that too.
16:41
SPEAKER_08: I I'm sure he would.
16:41
SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
16:42
SPEAKER_08: I mean, he's a rock guy.
16:43
SPEAKER_08: He's not, you know, he's not a smart guy.
16:44
SPEAKER_01: Um well, because of all the press that they did, um, they debuted, I mean, like you would expect Bon Jovi to debut uh in the top five.
16:55
SPEAKER_01: Well, good on the on the Billboard Top 200.
16:59
SPEAKER_01: Um in the first week of release.
17:02
SPEAKER_01: But the record that they set came after that first week.
17:08
SPEAKER_01: Um unless it comes back in the future, forever will be the first Bon Jovi studio album to only last one week in the top 200.
17:17
SPEAKER_01: That's right, ladies and gentlemen.
17:18
SPEAKER_01: It dropped off completely.
17:20
SPEAKER_01: Wow.
17:20
SPEAKER_01: Out of the top 200 after one week.
17:23
SPEAKER_08: Well, that only tells me that everybody that liked Bon Jovi got it at the fr at the same time, and then we're like, yeah.
17:30
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
17:31
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you're probably right.
17:33
SPEAKER_01: Uh and the funny thing is, is I had I had to stop by Walmart today and I to get a um Dustbuster for my car.
17:45
SPEAKER_01: Because my car gets dirty really quickly because if I have children in it.
17:49
SPEAKER_01: And really, I shouldn't lay it on my children, it's because of me.
17:52
SPEAKER_01: Um so I I I was I was gonna get a Dustbuster and I had the Bon Jovi album in my hand.
17:59
SPEAKER_01: And I was like, twelve bucks.
18:02
SPEAKER_08: That's not bad, actually.
18:04
SPEAKER_01: And I went and I didn't want to spend the extra money to get the Dustbuster and the Bon Jovi album.
18:13
SPEAKER_01: And you know how big of a fan.
18:14
SPEAKER_08: So you put so you put the Dustbuster?
18:16
SPEAKER_08: No.
18:16
SPEAKER_01: I put Bon Jovi back.
18:18
SPEAKER_01: And I bought the Dustbuster.
18:20
SPEAKER_01: So John Bon Jovi uh fell victim to the the Dustbuster.
18:26
SPEAKER_08: Well, I guess uh your your your contribution to uh the billboard thing is neglected.
18:34
SPEAKER_01: Right.
18:34
SPEAKER_01: That word.
18:35
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so you know that's not a record you want to have, but let's be realistic.
18:41
SPEAKER_01: And we've talked about this a little bit.
18:43
SPEAKER_01: Um I don't know I didn't find the album in in the stores until this week.
18:53
SPEAKER_01: Um and I think I read somewhere, I don't think it says it in this um story, but he debuted they debuted at number five, but they only sold 50,000 units.
19:05
SPEAKER_01: Yeah in one week.
19:07
SPEAKER_06: Yeah, that's pretty sad.
19:09
SPEAKER_08: Um I mean for Bon Jovi.
19:11
SPEAKER_01: Right.
19:12
SPEAKER_01: Back when back when uh in the eighties and nineties when when records actually sold.
19:18
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
19:18
SPEAKER_01: Um Yeah, you'd you'd go you'd go what was it, what was it?
19:23
SPEAKER_01: Def Leppard was saying, they w they w sold five hundred thousand units a month.
19:28

19:33
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
19:33
SPEAKER_01: You know?
19:34
SPEAKER_01: Um and now fifty thousand units will get you to number five.
19:38
SPEAKER_01: That's pretty sad.
19:39
SPEAKER_01: It's pretty sad.
19:40
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
19:40
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's pretty sad.
19:42
SPEAKER_01: That doesn't come it doesn't, I don't think it counts digital downloads.
19:45
SPEAKER_01: I'm not sure how that works.
19:46
SPEAKER_01: Maybe it does.
19:47
SPEAKER_01: Maybe they sold 50,000 all in all together.
19:51
SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
19:52
SPEAKER_01: That's even sadder.
19:53
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
19:54
SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
19:55
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
19:55
SPEAKER_01: And you know what?
19:56
SPEAKER_01: We listened to some of those songs.
19:57
SPEAKER_01: They were uh cheesy, but they were good.
20:00
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
20:00
SPEAKER_08: They were okay.
20:01
SPEAKER_08: Yeah, they mean nothing to yeah, nothing to write home about, but you know.
20:05
SPEAKER_01: Right.
20:06
SPEAKER_08: Oh, I don't know.
20:08
SPEAKER_01: I don't either.
20:08
SPEAKER_08: It's Bon Jovi.
20:09
SPEAKER_08: He'll I'm I'm sure he's not I'm I'm sure he's not like, oh my kids are gonna go hungry.
20:16
SPEAKER_08: I don't think there's he's sleeping on a big pile of money.
20:18
SPEAKER_01: But I do I do think that may because he you know he had the throat surgery and everything.
20:24
SPEAKER_01: Right.
20:25
SPEAKER_01: And there was some debate whether he was gonna go out and tour behind this record.
20:30
SPEAKER_01: Because he can sing now because of the throat uh surgery that he had, but he can't last two hours.
20:38
SPEAKER_06: Yeah, it's yeah.
20:39
SPEAKER_01: So he released a statement saying that I will not be able to tour probably behind this record.
20:46
SPEAKER_01: And I think that may spell retirement.
20:51
SPEAKER_01: Uh unless he unless he can build the stamina up and and his voice can hold up for two hours to tour again.
20:58
SPEAKER_01: I mean, what what else could he do?
21:01
SPEAKER_01: To be an actor again, I guess.
21:06
SPEAKER_06: That's not you know, no.
21:08
SPEAKER_01: No, no.
21:09
SPEAKER_01: No.

SPEAKER_01: That was a weird phase that he went through.
21:14
SPEAKER_08: Yeah, it was it was not a good phase.
21:17

57:24
SPEAKER_01: And I have an album.
57:26
SPEAKER_01: A CD.
57:27

57:48
SPEAKER_08: Van Halen.
57:49
SPEAKER_08: Yes.
57:52
SPEAKER_02: Yes! I have succeeded, but suck on it!
57:56
SPEAKER_01: Video Doug! So and there's a reason I picked this one.
58:00
SPEAKER_01: This one this one was not random.
58:02
SPEAKER_01: Uh, because I did see a an article.
58:07
SPEAKER_08: Oh! I saw this headline and I didn't read the article.
58:11
SPEAKER_01: Okay, so and I don't know if we've done this album before.
58:13
SPEAKER_01: We may have.
58:13
SPEAKER_08: I don't think we have because we both hate this album.
58:16
SPEAKER_01: I I I do hate this album.
58:18
SPEAKER_08: Um Well, you know, I I think we've played tracks off this album before, just to just to showcase how we're talking about Van Halen 3.
58:26
SPEAKER_01: Uh which is the worst-selling Van Halen album of all time.
58:30
SPEAKER_01: Because it's the worst Van Halen album of all time.
58:33
SPEAKER_01: Um, there are some spots that are okay.
58:37
SPEAKER_08: Oh no, no, no.
58:38
SPEAKER_08: I'm I'm not I'm not disputing that.
58:39
SPEAKER_08: It's just the whole album sucks.
58:41
SPEAKER_01: It does.
58:42
SPEAKER_01: So um Mike Post was the producer.
58:45
SPEAKER_01: Mike Post, who's a TV composer.
58:49
SPEAKER_01: You know, I Yeah, that's what you want to do when you're rocking.
58:51
SPEAKER_01: I'm not sure why Mike Post was chosen as uh as a producer on this.
58:55
SPEAKER_08: Well, I think this was Eddie's drug phase.
58:57
SPEAKER_01: Maybe, yeah, that's true.
58:59
SPEAKER_01: Um but there are some some good spots on this album, but I was reading on ultimate classicrock.com that two people um have sh have shared a remake of the band's 1998 album in a bid to prove just how great the troubled rec original record could have been.
59:21
SPEAKER_01: So they reduced it from twelve tracks in sixty-five minutes to ten tracks in forty-one minutes, with each song adjusted to focus on what they believe are its strongest parts, and an alternate track listing.
59:35
SPEAKER_01: Uh I have I have a look to see what they what they excluded.
59:39
SPEAKER_01: Probably Eddie's vocal on how many say I'm sure.
59:43
SPEAKER_01: Probably.
59:43
SPEAKER_08: I'm assuming that's probably got rid of that song altogether.
59:46
SPEAKER_08: Well, I can tell you here.
59:47
SPEAKER_01: Nope, it's on there.
59:48
SPEAKER_01: Is it?
59:49
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
59:49
SPEAKER_08: Mom's probably maybe took his vocal out then.
59:52
SPEAKER_01: Uh musician Kevin Brown and podcaster Scott Monroe were at pains to emphasize that they meant no disrespect to Eddie Van Halen's original work, which was comprised by a series of non-musical influences, including the guitarist's addiction struggle at the time.
1:00:05
SPEAKER_01: Uh they said they said Van Halen III was an album I dismissed for years.
1:00:09
SPEAKER_01: When Scott asked me if I'd be interested in trying to edit the songs to tighten them up, I was intrigued.
1:00:14
SPEAKER_01: He added that the process had left him with a much, much deeper appreciation for an album that is daring, eclectic, and unlike anything Eddie had tried before.
1:00:22
SPEAKER_01: Um He had applied his journalistic approach to Van Halen III, which he'd always felt was underrated.
1:00:28
SPEAKER_01: Uh how could we edit the album to something more tightly focused on its strengths?
1:00:32
SPEAKER_01: He remembered thinking I identified versions of each song that I felt were necessary or counterproductive.
1:00:38
SPEAKER_01: Pre-choruses, or in the case of How Many Say I, all of the vocals.
1:00:44
SPEAKER_01: So he did.
1:00:45
SPEAKER_01: He took out all of Eddie's vocals.
1:00:47
SPEAKER_01: Wow.
1:00:47
SPEAKER_01: In How Many Say I.
1:00:49
SPEAKER_01: There is no way it's this is no way intended to criticize Eddie or suggest we know better.
1:00:54
SPEAKER_01: I came at this from a place of love.
1:00:55
SPEAKER_01: This exercise is about reimagining how the music could have been further molded and perhaps made more accessible to the Van Halen fan base.
1:01:03
SPEAKER_01: So I'm looking at the track listing, and he has uh they have gotten rid of actually no, they just read let's see, I'm gonna tell you what they've gotten rid of.
1:01:12
SPEAKER_01: Um their track listing starts with without you, and let me let me start this playing while we're talking here.
1:01:19
SPEAKER_01: So So this is So starts with Without You, this song right here.
1:01:26
SPEAKER_01: Then it goes into One I Want, which is not much different.
1:01:31
SPEAKER_01: Fire in the Hole, New World, which was the album opener.
1:01:36
SPEAKER_01: Right.
1:01:36
SPEAKER_01: It's in the instrumental, and that is track number four now.
1:01:41
SPEAKER_01: Um Josefina, Dirty Water Dog, uh Ballad of the Bullet from Afar.
1:01:50
SPEAKER_01: How many say I in year to the day?
1:01:53
SPEAKER_01: So they got rid of primary and they got rid of once.
1:02:00
SPEAKER_01: Like completely took those songs off.
1:02:02
SPEAKER_01: Yep, took those songs off.
1:02:04
SPEAKER_08: Um well they knocked off what it went from 65 minutes to 41.
1:02:08
SPEAKER_08: Right.
1:02:08
SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
1:02:08
SPEAKER_08: Holy crap, there's must have been yeah.
1:02:11
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
1:02:12
SPEAKER_01: So I I haven't listened to these all the way through.
1:02:16
SPEAKER_01: This is this is their take on I never minded this song.
1:02:23
SPEAKER_01: This was their first single.
1:02:27
SPEAKER_01: And you you gotta get it handed to Gary Sharone.
1:02:29
SPEAKER_01: Those were uh Gary Sharon of of Extreme was the was the chosen lead singer um after Sammy Hagar was that was some big shoes.
1:02:39
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
1:02:40
SPEAKER_08: And and I it was almost like they set him up to fail.
1:02:43
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's true.
1:02:44
SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
1:02:44
SPEAKER_01: And have you ever if you've ever seen um any footage of that tour that they did um with Gary Sharone, they went down, they went down to um um Australia, and Gary Sharone was singing everything from Sammy to David Lee Roth.
1:03:02
SPEAKER_01: I mean, he was he was doing it all uh and well, and he was uh such a ball of energy on stage as he is today.
1:03:08
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
1:03:09
SPEAKER_01: Um it's too bad it, you know, I mean, it was just the wrong circumstances.
1:03:14
SPEAKER_08: Yeah, it was just I think it was just a bad period.
1:03:17
SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
1:03:17
SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
1:03:18
SPEAKER_01: Uh so here's one of the songs they left off, and I'm only gonna play a piece of it because it's seven minutes and forty-three seconds.
1:03:36
SPEAKER_01: Hmm.
1:03:37
SPEAKER_01: Can you tell it was produced by a television composer?
1:03:42
SPEAKER_08: Yeah, I was about to say, is it Magnum P.I.
1:03:44
SPEAKER_08: coming out any second?
1:03:47
SPEAKER_01: Again, not to take anything away from Eddie's composing abilities, but Eddie was a great composer.
1:03:53
SPEAKER_08: It's great.
1:03:54
SPEAKER_01: He really was, you know, but he just kind of went off in a sort of thing.
1:04:00
SPEAKER_08: I think he just lost his way on this one.
1:04:02
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
1:04:08
SPEAKER_01: Not even remotely a Van Halen song.
1:04:11
SPEAKER_08: No.
1:04:12
SPEAKER_08: It's not even an extreme song.
1:04:15
SPEAKER_01: No.
1:04:18
SPEAKER_01: And so I would they said that they edited songs too to take out like pre-choruses that didn't need to be there.
1:04:25
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
1:04:25
SPEAKER_01: Year to the day on this is eight minutes and thirty-five seconds.
1:04:30
SPEAKER_01: Um, I'm not sure what it is on the new version.
1:04:33
SPEAKER_01: They also got rid of this song.
1:04:35
SPEAKER_08: This is primary?
1:04:36
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
1:04:45
SPEAKER_10: Hold on.
1:04:51
SPEAKER_10: Where are you?
1:05:45
SPEAKER_08: Well, I was well, the it was playing, and then I heard a phone ring, and I was like, wow, that that's kind of weird they left that in there.

1:06:04
SPEAKER_01: And she's walking down by the house down there.
1:06:07
SPEAKER_01: It's gonna be a minute because I just thought that was interesting that they that they edited that together.
