- 1:57but you know, I love stories and you guys definitely have a story.
- 2:01Oh man, one we didn't talk about this pre show. Where'd you come
- 2:07up with the name aim Vision dude? So it's funny. I actually used
- 2:10to go buy a different name, which was variation of my real name Tyler.
- 2:15Yeah, and it was my god's hie and and it's a damn good
- 2:21thing that we can we swear on here. Yeah, it's a real good
- 2:24thing that I didn't stick with that because I don't think I would have gotten
- 2:28very far. But uh, Aim Vision, I don't really know it kind
- 2:30of I kind of just pulled it together. I've always liked the name.
- 2:34I've always liked the word vision. Something about it just like balls off my
- 2:37tongue nicely. I wanted to be called Vision, and I was thinking about
- 2:39like some of my favorite artists and whatnot, like like Action Bronson earl sweatshirt,
- 2:45like those are sick name. I don't know if you know those guys.
- 2:46No, there was there is a generational gap, but we'll meet in
- 2:51the middle. Um yeah, and like Action Bronson, this dude's first name
- 2:54is Action. So I was kind of going through. I knew I wanted
- 2:58Vision, and it kind of just made sense Aim Vision. You know.
- 3:00Yeah, I get that question all the time. I never thought answer.
- 3:04I kind of just came to me to be honest. Yeah, well,
- 3:06like you know my boy Aim Vision, And I'm like, what what did
- 3:08you say? He's from Milford. I'm like, I don't know. Uh,
- 3:14So you've been doing your twenty three. You've been doing music for about
- 3:17what six years now? Uh yeah, pretty much. And as we just
- 3:22talked, so that song was homesick right, uh pretty powerful, Like that
- 3:27wasn't the actual song that was that was explaining this song almost right, It's
- 3:30so funny. That was actually an excerpt from a podcast with Russell Brand and
- 3:35uh duncan trustful. I don't know if you know, I love Russell Brand.
- 3:38He's one of my favorites. Yep. For you. I don't know
- 3:40how you fucking talk so fast. It just doesn't like ever um or Uh,
- 3:45my goal is to be as fluid, right, he's so flow good
- 3:47word for that. Yeah, yeah, he's something else. But yeah,
- 3:51that that uhlip. Yeah, that clip of that podcast is actually what inspired
- 3:54that song. Um. Like, as soon I was like I was thrown
- 3:58out a podcast just like about my business or some whatever background noise, and
- 4:02I like heard that and I like stopped what I was doing. I was
- 4:05like, Wow, that's like a real interesting feeling that he's describing, right,
- 4:09and decided to write homesick about it. Yeah, And you know what,
- 4:13I think you're the perfect guest with a lot of your music for for
- 4:15the end of this month. So it's it's the National National Men's Health Mental
- 4:20Health and uh, you know addiction and you know, having Hawkins on and
- 4:27uh, it's something that it's it's so crazy, just it could you could
- 4:30be addicted and not even realize it, you know, and you just you
- 4:34end up down a path and you're like, how the you know, how
- 4:38do I get you? Wait? How do how did I get here?
- 4:39I was having fun. I was just having fun, you know, and
- 4:42now I'm here. You know. I'm not saying you're there. I'm just
- 4:44saying, you know, but you know, obviously in the beginning of that,
- 4:46you know the power of drugs and alcohol and sex and everything. It's
- 4:49just no doubt, especially at a young age, you know. Uh.
- 4:54So, tell me a little bit about that song. How you came up
- 4:56with all the lyrics and is it some of it personal? Is some of
- 4:59it more? You just kind of fed off of what that guy was saying,
- 5:01and I wrote it a little bit of both, honestly. I Um,
- 5:04I heard what that dude was saying, dart can trust so and I
- 5:06was just like, man, that's such a I feel like that's a feeling
- 5:10a lot of people feel, but never know how to explain, like explain
- 5:13it, and I think he put it in the perfect words, like you're
- 5:15homesick, but like you don't know where home. Well he didn't say that,
- 5:18right, right, right, Yeah, you were saying that you don't
- 5:20know where home is. You know, there's this like feeling inside of you,
- 5:23Like it's like the feeling of being homesick, but it's inside of you.
- 5:27And because a lot of people don't have anywhere to go right right now?
- 5:30Yeah, so right, they have that feeling, but they're like,
- 5:31well they can't fulfill that like physically, right and like just you know,
- 5:35yeah, there's no one to talk to and no one to get these feelings
- 5:39out too. So yeah, I felt like that was an important song to
- 5:42make, and I definitely resonated with it a little bit, you know,
- 5:45always trying to there's something inside that you're just trying to feel, right.
- 5:48That's and you know me personally, I don't I don't really have a personal
- 5:53relationship with drugs, but I've definitely seen how it affects life, and shit,
- 5:58yeah, I've seen it all. I am not a drug addict,
- 6:00never have been, never been. I've never been on I've never really done
- 6:03drugs if I'm sad. Yeah, I might have eaten some shit off of
- 6:08cows poof before, but other than that, I've never done cocaine. I've
- 6:13never done heroin. I've never done any of that stuff. Alcohol is probably
- 6:15way too much for me in general. Uh so, maybe I should probably
- 6:19stop that too, But you know I have a podcast called it. Speaking
- 6:23of that, we are drinking Daybreakers. Thanks Matt from Two Roads. He
- 6:28dropped me off some samples the other day as stone Bridge. You got a
- 6:30pineapple mule, Yeah, it looks good, and I got the blood orange
- 6:35vodka cocktails. Very good. Enjoying these today on day drinking with dog.
- 6:40So what is some of your musical influences? I actually so, I'm not
- 6:45going to announce what I what I've labeled you yet, I haven't written down.
- 6:48I'm probably way off. But after I play a little snippet from Superhero,
- 6:53I'm gonna tell you what I think. You're a genre music is?
- 6:56Uh so, what what are? Yeah? What are your summary influences?
- 7:00So little preface is, when I first started making music, I was much
- 7:04more in the rap niche like like I like that dude earl sweatshirt. I
- 7:11made very like low fi um, very lyrical, like monotone kind of stuff.
- 7:18And as I progressed, I m started getting into the more melodic alternative
- 7:23stuff. But early influences of mine so like I had my mom who introduced
- 7:28me to all the rap eminem Little May and all that, And then I
- 7:31had my grandmother and my aunt and all of them who was introducing me to
- 7:34like alternative nineties rock like Nirvana, the Strokes, stuff like that. And
- 7:41I don't know something, I think at a certain point I allowed my alternative
- 7:46influences to start to show. You know, when when when I started doing
- 7:49the melodic stuff. I've always been drawn to that kind of thing, but
- 7:53um, yeah, I kind of definitely morph my style. There was a
- 7:57big transition when I turned to a vision and from my gout tie. That's
- 8:01kind of when I started making more like melodic alternative kind of stuff. But
- 8:05as of late, my biggest influences are Man, there's so many, but
- 8:09when you get when you go to the gym or you get in your car,
- 8:11who are you listening to? Well? Those that's a whole different thing.
- 8:15I listened to some weird stuff sometimes, um, but my favorite artist
- 8:18as right now, I actually we're gonna shut and now it's Dominic Fike um
- 8:22real great alternative indie Ish artist Oliver Tree. And then I also it's a
- 8:28weird thing, like I listened to a lot of artists who are like similar
- 8:31size as me, you know what I mean, Like I find them online
- 8:33and whatnot, m and I get a lot of inspiration from them just seeing
- 8:37them timing up this lab just like I am. Yeah, so yeah,
- 8:43but I also listened to you'll you'll catch me listen to some ignorant ass rat
- 8:48too, and then some like EDM kind of stuff like I'm all over the
- 8:50place. You know what it makes me feel old is when you tell me
- 8:54that your mother introduced you to Eminem. Yeah. Well, to be fair,
- 8:58I mean, is my I think he's yeah, okay, I was
- 9:03like, damn shit, so your grandmother was that was so I grew up
- 9:09late eighties. I'm born in the seventies, but like kind of you know,
- 9:13my late teens, graduating high school. I graduated like right when grunge
- 9:16hit in Nirvana and Sound Garden and Temple the Dog all that stuff, and
- 9:22uh, but before that, it's just funny, like before that was extreme,
- 9:28Like my brothers like four and a half years older than me, So
- 9:30he got into the band Extreme. They're out of Boston and literally they just
- 9:33released a new album like three weeks ago. These dudes are like get old,
- 9:37you know, and they were they were never like chart breakers or you
- 9:41know, but they you know, they etched out a great career. Their
- 9:46their guitars. Nuno bet Chord's probably one of the top five alive. Like
- 9:50he's that good. Just the rest of the man to check them out.
- 9:52Yeah, they're I was called them back in the day, Like I think
- 9:58they got overtaken by grunge. Like they were kind of like at the end
- 10:03of that Motley Cruved, you know, that era that was ending. They
- 10:05were kind of stuck in the middle, and then grune just took over.
- 10:09Imagine. I imagine that happened to a lot of because grunge was a very
- 10:13like powerful wave that came. Oh yeah, you know, sucked me right
- 10:16in. I did not not not clothing line wise, but I didn't.
- 10:18I didn't wear the flannel, but but I definitely got sucked into the all.
- 10:22I mean, I still listened to that music. Yeah, that music
- 10:24to me is timeless. Yeah, I think I think when that I mean,
- 10:26I wasn't alive happened, but I imagine that when that music hit.
- 10:31I've heard stories of like people hearing like smells like teen Spirit for the first
- 10:33time and they've never heard anything like it nothing, you know. I sang
- 10:37that in my talent show in high school. Is that right? Yeah?
- 10:41Well, we didn't make it. We tried out, we we tried out.
- 10:45We did three songs and that was one of them, and we didn't
- 10:48make it. It wasn't me. I was great fun, of course.
- 10:50It was the guys in the band. They needed the stuff. Yeah,
- 10:52a little bit, all right, So, uh, I got it.
- 10:56Let's do a little clip of Superhero. I liked this song. And then
- 11:01after this song, I'm gonna give you my rundown. I got it of
- 11:03perfect of designer, you've called genre. H my sweet girl, she's oblivious
- 11:11to ser Concer, a princess in the world of vivile little Did you know
- 11:18that I'm the one that really needed to say, so, why can be
- 11:22a superhero? I see really need? All right? Good? No,
- 11:43it's really good. I like it. So I listened to kind of like
- 11:48how we're listening to him now. I listened to Home sick first and I
- 11:50listened to that and um, realizing your age, and I'm you almost confirmed
- 11:56it with how you've you know, started listening eminem Ivan and with your grandmother.
- 12:03I don't have a name for this, but it's a combination of three
- 12:05grunge, pop, and hip hop. Yeah, I mean that's what I
- 12:09got, yeah, pretty much. And you have that the grunge is like
- 12:13you have that raspish, like deep voice for a kid your age. Yeah,
- 12:18you know, which is you know you hear it just talking to talking,
- 12:22you know, not necessarily just from singing, which is I like,
- 12:26can you scream like all those screamers from the nineties, I would like to
- 12:31Yeah, right, yeah, no, not quite yet. It's so funny
- 12:33that you say that. You're pretty much spot on honestly, whenever, like
- 12:37I'm talking to someone like out or whatever, and I'm like, yeah,
- 12:39I make music, and they're like, oh, like what kind? I
- 12:41never ever know what to say. I always say, literally, like I
- 12:46had this script in my head that I say every time. I'm just like,
- 12:48ah, honestly, it's kind of hard to genre. I don't really
- 12:50know. I guess I would say it's a mix of indie alternative hip hop.
- 12:56Yeah kind of thing, you know. Yeah, I just say ind
- 13:00because indies of yeah brod brush. But like you know, like I sent
- 13:05you three songs and they're all different, you know. Yeah, yeah,
- 13:07I don't really know. It's whatever I'm in the mood for us pose.
- 13:11Yeah, I uh. One of the first videos like or I was probably
- 13:15Instagram or TikTok. I don't really go on TikTok, but I'm sure they're
- 13:16on both sites. But you were in the golf cart. Yeah, and
- 13:20I don't know what a song were you singing? That was homesick? Okay,
- 13:24So this is how like with social media, you're just lip syncing bad
- 13:28correct. Oh yeah yeah, I'm not even saying it out loud either.
- 13:31I imagine most people who like promote their music on TikTok like actually say the
- 13:35words when they're whip saying it. I just whisper it like it's so stupid.
- 13:41Like if you saw me out in public, I probably look so stupid
- 13:45because I film a lot in public. Do you golf? I do not
- 13:48golf. Oh I'm bley been golfing like three times, I'm real bad at
- 13:52it. Well three times you're gonna be real bad. Yeah. Um,
- 13:54it's a vibe though. It's fun. Oh that's awesome. Yeah, I'm
- 13:58going tomorrow. I'd like to be or at it, so I probably have
- 14:01to go a little more. All right, what's uh We're gonna go into
- 14:05AI in a little bit. Oh yeah, but before we get there,
- 14:07what's what's the best concert you've ever seen I've ever seen? What's the one
- 14:13that I mean, you've been influenced by different things, But what's the one
- 14:20where you walked out? I'm like, yeah, I mean, there could
- 14:22have been a bunch of him, but there is there any one that.
- 14:24Yeah, I'll tell you mine after you tell me yours. Honestly, it
- 14:31I want to say, excuse me. Um, Dominic Fike was the best
- 14:37simply he's dude, He's everything I aspire to be. Um, he was
- 14:43just so amazing and like, you know, he's my favorite artist. I
- 14:46knew every song and he was just like it was so cool seeing him,
- 14:48Like, I don't know, he's just so talented. The way he uses
- 14:52his voice is like mind blowing, Like he'll just I don't know, it's
- 14:56so hard to explain without like you ever hearing him, but man, that
- 15:00was probably I sobbed like ten separate times. Cry. Oh yeah, and
- 15:03I don't even cry ever, and he makes me cry. Where is he
- 15:09from? He's from Florida. How is your age? Originally I think he's
- 15:13or maybe they's twenty six? Wow? Yeah, but I suppose that's a
- 15:18biased answer. But he that's fine. He shreds on guitar and voices killer.
- 15:24Yeah. So that was probably it. Dominic fight. Yeah yeah,
- 15:28so yeah, I will. I definitely will. Uh. You know,
- 15:31I'm more of the mainstream music. So my favorite band of all time is
- 15:37Stained. Do you know who they are? No? You don't know.
- 15:39Do you know what Aaron Lewis is? No? Okay, So he's the
- 15:45lead singer of Stained, and he had this crazy idea to leave the band
- 15:50and go do country music, right, So he comes back to Stained a
- 15:54couple of years later, and I had to get tickets sure, and Papa
- 15:58Roach opened for them. Oh shit, okay, I know yeah, And
- 16:03I knew their music, you know, I knew a lot of their songs,
- 16:06but I've never seen them live. And I you know, I got
- 16:08like third row seats at Mohegan Suns and Papa Roach comes out and I was
- 16:14ready to leave after them, because I'm like, you can't top this.
- 16:18It's like the old led Zeppelin story, like led Zepplin opened for somebody and
- 16:22like the I don't think the band wanted to come on the stage after that,
- 16:23you know. And uh and it's my favorite band coming on next,
- 16:26you know. And I was like they were just like their their energy,
- 16:30their vibe, like you very familiar with that. I was pretty familiar,
- 16:33yes, like just through CDs and stuff and radio listening, but again,
- 16:37never saw him live, didn't didn't know the energy they had. They were
- 16:41just in Bridgeport last summer and I was it was a Sunday, and I
- 16:45just look, it's one of my best money nights at work and I'm like,
- 16:47I can't take off. And I wish I did because I'm sure they're
- 16:49just the same as they were ten years ago when I saw them a little
- 16:52longer than that. But yeah, it was the rest of the stuff,
- 16:56the show just lackluster. You know. What's funny is like we all sat
- 16:59down and watch stand like literally, I mean, and they're they're they're heavier
- 17:03than Papa Roach. I couldn't say we sat down, but like, you
- 17:06know, the lead singer was in the stands. He was running around high
- 17:08five in people and just going crazy then just smashing guitars and just they was
- 17:14just like, holy shit, this guy's rock, you know. And uh
- 17:17and Stain's you know more, you know, the guitar staining their mics.
- 17:22They thrash, don't get me wrong. But and Aaron Lewis has that scream
- 17:25voice, you know. Uh, but I don't know, I'm still Stainings
- 17:30still better for me. But the show wiser. Yeah, just crazy.
- 17:36Yeah, I'm not. I don't. I don't think I've ever heard of
- 17:38Stained, but I know Papa Roache some of some of their songs. I
- 17:42know they go hard. So Stain's been around since the mid nineties. They
- 17:45were kind of that. They were in that corn limp biscuit kind of genre
- 17:52back then. Those two were a little more rap rock, but uh,
- 17:56Stain was a little more heavy metal, I would say, got it.
- 18:00They had like five albums then he went country. That came back and they're
- 18:03making a new one now. And Papa Roach was smaller than them at the
- 18:07time. Yeah yeah, I mean now a Papa Roach headlines wherever they go.
- 18:11Yeah yeah, yeah, I mean they're they're they're they're they're shit.
- 18:14It's fun It's funny how these like bands are so cyclical over the years.
- 18:18You know, they start out in bars and you know, the small scene,
- 18:22and then they might get picked up for a small tour and then like
- 18:26this is what happened. You know, you ever heard of Shine Down?
- 18:29I'm only fucking Jesus Christ. Were you strictly indie? Well, these guys
- 18:34were long story short, I've seen them open for like five bands, and
- 18:40now they're headlining arenas. You know. It's just it's like like like that's
- 18:42a that's a trajectory though out of bands, and then in twenty years they're
- 18:47gonna be on the fucking eighties Cruish ship playing I don't don't know who that
- 18:52is, all right? So so now do you do live shows yet?
- 18:56I do? Um, not like consistently regularly, but um, I've done
- 19:03a lot of shows around here. Um, I haven't in a in a
- 19:07while. I'm really trying to, like I was telling you pre show,
- 19:10I was, um, I'm really trying to get a live band together and
- 19:12you know, elevate my live performance. I think that's the next step for
- 19:15me as far as live goes. Um, But I don't even really know
- 19:21how to go about that. If there's any guitarists or drummers listening, you
- 19:25know, yeah, I mean, you know it's funny, like I know,
- 19:29ever since COVID, like you know, finally settled out and the bands
- 19:30were back playing, I know a lot of a lot of you know,
- 19:36I know guys that are in like five bands. Yeah, you know,
- 19:37they just got to coordinate the schedule, right, you know, and that's
- 19:41it's their full time job down Yeah, you know that. Oh man,
- 19:44I imagine they were stressing cod at Stonebridge that first summer. So you know
- 19:51where the pizza window is to get pizza, of course I do so,
- 19:53right, right, So we used to do a one piece guy like put
- 20:00the stanchions around him six There was twelve feet we needed for so tables could
- 20:03be sitting. This is all dumb, This fucking era of the fucking time
- 20:07was restaurant tables could be six feet apart. But the musician, since he
- 20:11sings into a microphone, is probably projecting his spit twelve feet. You didn't
- 20:15needed a twelve foot barrier, right, So we obviously didn't have the pizza
- 20:18kitchen going because it was just you know, there's no nightlife. So with
- 20:22these poor guys were just play, you know, and and and the crowd
- 20:26we had was just like, you know, all adults. You know,
- 20:30it wasn't for kids. Weren't coming out eating dinner, yeah, having dinner,
- 20:33uh, you know, spending a lot of money, you know,
- 20:34like you know, if we didn't get the right guy, they're bitching,
- 20:37you know, and it's like, oh, yeah, this fucking sucks.
- 20:41But I was yeah, I mean, hey, I was one of I
- 20:44missed a lot of work. I mean I was lucky that, you know,
- 20:45Trump was in office and we got a shipload of free money. But
- 20:49uh so when you play, you're almost like a post Malone, right,
- 20:55Like you have the music pumped in behind you and you play and you singing
- 21:00track. Yeah, although although post Malone kind of plays guitar and stuff,
- 21:04I'm not quick. I've seen him a concert that well, yeah, he
- 21:07plays a little bit. He pulls people up from the crowd that play guitar.
- 21:11Yeah, I saw him in Bashville. He was awesome. So you
- 21:14know who post Malone is? Do you like Postmlon? I do like I
- 21:18do like post Malone. Um, I think his character development was interesting to
- 21:23watch. Yeah, I think he's really good. He's he's like a hit
- 21:27maker, like you just you know, he makes a lot of say like
- 21:32radio friendly. Yeah, I mean yeah. Do you think it comes to
- 21:36a point with some of this stuff? Like I go back and listen to
- 21:37some of the bands I like, and I remember, like I'll just pick
- 21:41out a random song right on an album. I mean, you know,
- 21:44this song kind of sucks, but when it came out, like it didn't
- 21:48matter. Everything you touched was gold. Like I feel that about Post Malone,
- 21:52like in fifteen years, like is every song gonna be a hit?
- 21:56Like in your own mind? Yeah? You know what I mean? Like
- 22:00are you Um? I think they get to a certain level and it's like,
- 22:03oh, we could do no wrong exactly exactly. Yeah. I think
- 22:06a lot of artists that's happened too. I think like once they become super
- 22:11like a list in mainstream, I think they lose a little bit of their
- 22:14edge perhaps, and uh, personally I crave edge in music, like you
- 22:21know what I mean. Um, But when they get I don't know,
- 22:22it depends, I guess. But when you get your first twenty million dollar
- 22:26paycheck, you know, and you're deciding should I keep my edge, or
- 22:32go on a submarine and check out that Titanic. You know, you've got
- 22:36the balance of life there, you know, like, how do I want
- 22:38to? Yeah? What a song that would have made? Yeah, I
- 22:41mean if you survive it, if you're finding yourself in situations like that,
- 22:44there's bound to be some edge. But I don't really know. Are you
- 22:48an adventure seeker? Are you are you an extreme sports guy or anything?
- 22:52You parachute? Do you skydie? Haven't? Would? Yeah? Okay,
- 22:56definitely? Would you ride a motorcycle? I do not. You look like
- 22:59you're not look like a biker kind of dude A little bit. That's good
- 23:02when you wear that. At the first time I met you wear that?
- 23:03Do rag a yet? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got
- 23:07that a lot. I got biker skater. I don't even skate. I
- 23:10look like I look like I guarantee and filthy is skating and I'm not at
- 23:14all. Um. Yeah, but those vipers you had, it's just the
- 23:18aesthetic. No, those are some some Montclairs. I'm out of that game,
- 23:23I say. I see the young little kids wearing the vipers, yea,
- 23:27oh god, I think they're fucking ugly. I don't disagree. Yeah,
- 23:33so real quick. Would you would, not, knowing what happened last
- 23:37week with the submarine, if your father was a billionaire and said, hey,
- 23:41you want to go check out that Titanic, would you have any hesitation
- 23:45whatsoever? Would you research it? Or you just say, my dad's loaded.
- 23:48He knows what he's doing. That's what happened to this poor night to
- 23:51year whole kid. Yeah, and he was nervous to go on it.
- 23:53Oh man, What a moral dilemma that is, What a moral moral question
- 23:56that is. I mean probably I'd love to see the wreckage of the Titanic,
- 24:02to be honest. But at the same time, like submarines are like
- 24:04sketch. I feel like, well, like I remember, so, you
- 24:08know the movie Titanic Shobaby released before you No, no, You're probably alive
- 24:12when I was really funny. I actually saw that recently. Yeah, yeah,
- 24:17yeah. So the director James Cameron did like a documentary years later where
- 24:22he has his own multimillion dollars submarine with like a glass like it's just like
- 24:30it's like a three seater and with the cameras all on it, and he
- 24:33did this whole documentary and like they swam around it and took that thing was
- 24:37like looked super cool and you know, space age technology. This fucking thing.
- 24:42Yeah, it's like a just slid off the boat man b line until
- 24:47it couldn't hold the pressure anymore and imploded. I don't know, man,
- 24:49I I don't think i'd want to be a part of it, to be
- 24:55honest with you. As cool as that is, I just don't know.
- 24:57I love like deep sea ship. I love and I love seeing like especially
- 25:03like on Twitter and stuff, like there's all this footage of like you don't
- 25:06really see on normal TV, and it's just of these creatures down there.
- 25:10Yeah, and they're fucking aliens, you know what I mean. I'm not
- 25:12saying they're out of space. I don't say that, but they are.
- 25:15You know. You look at this shit, You're like, how what the
- 25:18fuck created this thing? The ocean is a terrifying place, man, Honestly,
- 25:22I don't I'm not a big fan of the ocean. Have you ever
- 25:25seen the Abyss movie? Yes, Uh, it's it's it's probably as old
- 25:30as you. Maybe I have go watch it. Yeah, it's cool.
- 25:33It's an action kind of an action deep ocean movie. Uh, don't love
- 25:38the actual ocean. Yeah, yeah, and it deals with the aliens.
- 25:42Uh, it's it's you'll recognize some of the people in it. It's one
- 25:47of it. So so if you do watch it, and everyone listening you've
- 25:49ever seen the Abyss, there's an alternate ending to it, make sure you
- 25:53watch the alternate end movies like that. Yeah, yeah, because the ending
- 25:56is like, it's cool, but the alternate ending with right, like fucking
- 26:00political almost it's pretty neat, got it? Got it? Yeah, man,
- 26:04I'm not a huge fan of the ocean at all, especially up here
- 26:07the sharks up here in North New England. Yeah, I mean you're not.
- 26:14You also have that surfer vibe too. Yeah. Right right again,
- 26:18if you if you're listening to this today, just switch over to Twitch and
- 26:21check out check out my boy Tyler here a vision and you'll see what we're
- 26:26talking about. Here he's got more hair than I've ever had in my head
- 26:30in my life. Uh so. But yeah, but it's just one last
- 26:33thing about this submarine thing. I feel like it encompassed the news and like
- 26:40just like nothing else was talked about as per usual. I mean, do
- 26:45you think it's just another distraction? Yes, because the Navy came out that
- 26:52like the day after they said it imploded, and the Navy is like they
- 26:56like raised their hand, like we knew this on Monday, we heard it.
- 27:00After an hour forty five minutes it went down. We heard the implosion.
- 27:03We tried telling you, and then the US Coast Guard came out and
- 27:06said, well, that's not definitive proof. You still have to do spend
- 27:10tens of billions of dollars for search and rescue for seven fucking morons that went
- 27:14down on this thing. Yeah, I've heard. I've heard quite a few
- 27:17theories. I heard a theory that like this would be like the perfect cover
- 27:19up to like fake a bunch of you know, dirty billionaire's deaths. Oh
- 27:26yeah, so now they're I don't know, they're like two fun living down
- 27:30in the Bahamas now, yeah, just living it up. I don't know.
- 27:34Another thing I heard was the owner, like the CEO of the company
- 27:38who died, was this is how stupid he was. There was an independent
- 27:45review of this submarine, and whoever reviewed it told them, listen, you
- 27:49have to there are like cracks in the seals of this fucking thing, like
- 27:55this is not like worthy to go down here anymore because it's done missions before
- 28:00and it needs to be upgraded or whatever. The dude the CEO paid him
- 28:06off hush money to not release this, and and how dumb are you to
- 28:14actually get this information in your hands, whether you're paying him off or not.
- 28:18But you're the guy going no, I'm pulling. I'm like, you
- 28:21know what, Okay, you're right, Maybe maybe I should seal a couple
- 28:25of fucking you guys, don't like know for sure? This is all good.
- 28:29I'm good. I don't know, man, Yeah, fucking crazy,
- 28:32it is crazy. All right, it's play another track. Let's do it.
- 28:33This is when you didn't send me this, when I found on my
- 28:36own on YouTube. Now you find what all right, before we play it,
- 28:38let's get out where we where you tell us where we can find all
- 28:41of your music? Yeah yeah, so honestly, wherever you listen to music,
- 28:45just type in aim vision, aim vision and you'll find me. Spotify,
- 28:49Apple Music, everywhere, YouTube everything. That's where I found on YouTube,
- 28:53and I get you get little music videos with it too. I got
- 28:56a couple of music videos. Yeah, yeah, right. The last song,
- 29:00were playing it on the way out of the show. You were like
- 29:02jumping out of a window and oh yeah the Moon one. Yeah, yeah,
- 29:07have you seen have you seen the Moon tonight? Got a music video
- 29:10for that. All right, so this we're gonna play. I'm so you
- 29:11know what I fucked up? So well, no Superhero, I didn't really
- 29:15ask you what what was behind that song? So well, and then we'll
- 29:18get into the yeah Superhero. Um it's funny actually, I uh, my
- 29:25ex girlfriend, UM, we kind of had the this is about to get
- 29:29transparent on here, but we're all good. Hey, yeah, we kind
- 29:33of had this interesting dynamic where we kind of came from two different worlds.
- 29:37Uh, you know, one place of more shelter and you know, security
- 29:42where you probably not quite can you tell? Um? And uh yeah,
- 29:48that was just then interesting your bob listening to eminem man, you know what
- 29:52I mean. Um, And that was just an interesting dynamic that played out.
- 29:56So I wrote about it and also, um, coincidentally, this didn't
- 30:00even like have anything to do with it, but she was reading a book
- 30:03at the time about literally like it was basically about us in that dynamic.
- 30:08Yeah, I forget what it was called, but um, that really inspired
- 30:11me. That's actually, um, so is that a breakup song or is
- 30:15that a relationship. So it's yeah, just relationship song at the time.
- 30:18Yeah, Um, is there a fund? Is there a follow up to
- 30:22it? We all know STFU stands for yeah, um no, yeah,
- 30:30that fun that song. Actually, that's like my second biggest song now,
- 30:34I believe, And when I made that song, I had no idea that
- 30:38it was gonna be so successful. I really just like wrote that song because
- 30:41like that song is like very alternative. Like I have some like alternative esque
- 30:47songs, but that song is really like just like I don't know, it's
- 30:49like different, and like I in that song, like that's where I hear
- 30:55the grunge. That's that's the raspy voice. That's very kind Yeah, not
- 30:59angry, but yeah a little bit. Yeah you know, so you can
- 31:03edgy? Yeah, like you're like, yeah for sure. So the next
- 31:06song we got coming up is STFU, So shut the fuck up? What's
- 31:10behind this one? Shut the fuck up? Not you? Yeah that one
- 31:15actually, uh, that one's kind of on some angsty shit just kind of
- 31:21about like, Um, that's so funny that you that you chose that one
- 31:26because that's actually like a more lesser known one. Um. Yeah, but
- 31:30yeah, I like that, like people sent me three or four that I
- 31:32like that. I like to kind of pick out stuff and I like that.
- 31:33I like that. Um that one actually, I Uh, I wrote
- 31:38when I was like I think I was driving back from Connecticut from New York.
- 31:44I was like out there with a couple of producers or whatever, and
- 31:47I was just I was kind of like in a zone, and I was
- 31:49thinking to myself, like, man, like, I'm driving it was like
- 31:52four am, this almost coming back up whatever, and uh, I was
- 31:56just thinking, man like, I'm really working, like up on the sundown,
- 32:00still around when it come up, and and I was kind of just
- 32:06thinking on my way back, Um, you know, were working. That's
- 32:10kind of the attitude of the song really, and uh, but who are
- 32:13you yelling at then? And you know what's so funny then in quotations,
- 32:19it's, uh we talk a pronoun Yeah yeah, no, um that's uh.
- 32:24When I when I when any artist really refers to them or they,
- 32:29it's like it's like it's this fake like it's this group of people. It's
- 32:34not anyone specific, but it's like this group of people that are like rooting
- 32:37against you, and you know what I mean, It's just like they don't
- 32:40yeah, yeah, you know yeah and uh saters, yeah, yeah,
- 32:44yeah exactly. All right, well let's play you want to play it from
- 32:46the beginning. I have you set up at twenty twenty one seconds, but
- 32:51yeah, we'll do like a forty five second right from the start. This
- 32:54is shut the fuck up vision? Yeah, help on the sundown still around
- 33:15when it come up, the doubters to come out and allowed as to come
- 33:19up, and now it's like what up? But they all are so proud
- 33:22they want to know why now whatnot a sawt from you? Sum up?
- 33:24Okay, she's gonna run out. I don't want to sound suck up.
- 33:27I smiled with my thumb up, but really should the fuck up only come
- 33:30alive when it's dart always gets your vibe when it's light, slowly with the
- 33:32rhymes about bark, but no one knows the size of the blight. Knowing
- 33:36a lot of house. When I'm hiding the clowns, it's like, eat
- 33:37the crowd is like the crowd in the light, But me, mister crowd
- 33:40isn't right. Vision different than the clouds at the slight and these people all
- 33:43around on the like summer figure route on the type and I know I sound
- 33:45cocky, but I'm done being humble. The road has been rocking on Alive
- 33:50stumble. All right, that is shut the fuck up, you know,
- 33:52I sense I like the beat. You know. So we were talking before
- 33:59this show, like, so you you have these guys? Is it one
- 34:01guy you get the beats from? Yeah? So, um, it's it's
- 34:06almost embarrassing to say, but when I when I felt obviously when I first
- 34:08started, there's just you probably don't know about this, but like there's this
- 34:13big community on YouTube, Like if you typed in any word on YouTube with
- 34:16the words type beat after it, it will show up. Something will show
- 34:21up. So um, type beats are a big thing on YouTube for artists
- 34:23who are just starting out. And uh, that's where I got most of
- 34:27my beats. I still get some of my beats from there, but I've
- 34:29kind of curated this this group of several different producers, so I feel like
- 34:35nail my sound really well and I only use their beats, and um,
- 34:37so you get the beat first, yeah, and then you lay the track
- 34:40over usually yeah, usually more often than not the other way, Like if
- 34:45you have a producer, like all right, these are my lyrics, want
- 34:47to yeah, yeah, make it happen. Yeah, but more often than
- 34:51not, I like to have the beat and um right around the beat.
- 34:54I don't know why. I kind of it puts me in a box,
- 34:58but in a good way. It kind of limits because there because my problem
- 35:02with writing is like when I start a song and I write, like,
- 35:07the possibilities are endless. I can make the song about whatever I want it
- 35:09to be about, you know, So when I hear a beat, it'll
- 35:14make me think of a specific topic or a specific line or something I could
- 35:16go from there. You know. Sometimes limitations are good in the creative process.
- 35:21You do a lot of acapella and just kind of yeah, sitting by
- 35:23yourself and yeah, yeah. I also on the inverse, I journal a
- 35:29lot, and I and I don't yeah, I don't really um in my
- 35:32journal, like my daily journal. I don't really like put pressure to like
- 35:37make it have to be a song, or even have to rhyme or even
- 35:40have to make sense. And sometimes there will be excerpts in that journal of
- 35:45just like some song ideas or a hook or whatever, and then I'll go
- 35:50from there. I'll find a beat that works with it, or send it
- 35:52and to some of my producers and whatever. And we'll figure it out.
- 35:57That's crazy a lot of a lot of a lot of guys. I a
- 36:00friend of mine back in the day. He's a guitarist, and he would
- 36:05he was in a band called Live and Trust, and he would basically write
- 36:07all the music for all their songs. And this guy already was the lead
- 36:12singer and he would just listen to that and then make up a song over
- 36:16the top of that, which I always thought it was the other way around.
- 36:20Yeah. I always thought, like, all right, I got some
- 36:22lyrics to a cool, like you know song, you guys come up to
- 36:24music, and he's like, every song we did was the opposite. Yeah,
- 36:28obviously you can do it both ways, but like, is that the
- 36:31preferred method of a musician as far as like personally, I'm kind of a
- 36:36weird though, man. Yeah, personally, Like so I'm kind of new
- 36:39to the whole like sitting down with like basically a stranger who produces music and
- 36:46like getting in there and they start making a bet from scratch, and I
- 36:50like, like, I like to be prepared. I like to have the
- 36:52whole song written. I like to like sit as I write, like Alane
- 36:55and really like just curate like every word. I want to have meaning in
- 37:01my songs, you know. And um, so that's been that's been like
- 37:05an interesting, uh little trick with my writing process. And my writing process
- 37:10is so weird, man, it's so weird. Um, it's all over
- 37:15the place really, But I've always been I was there a school behind it.
- 37:17What do you mean, Like it's like if you go to like music
- 37:20school, Yeah, is there a way they teach you how to write music?
- 37:23I imagine wise, I know there's a way to write music music.
- 37:27I'm talking about like lyrics to a song. Is there a method that you
- 37:30know, like the classical way to do right? Yeah? I mean no,
- 37:34you know what, I would think everyone would be different. Yeah.
- 37:37I used to think that, but um, after you know, endless books
- 37:43about it. Actually, the last book I read is by the student named
- 37:45Rick Rubin. I don't know if you know who he is. Um,
- 37:49it's funny you don't know anything. Um. Yeah. He it's called the
- 37:54Creative Act, a Way of Being, and he really explains how the creative
- 37:59process is different for everyone and whatever works for you works for you. Hum.
- 38:04But I've always been intrigued, Um, how like band like for example,
- 38:08the first thing that comes to mind is like, uh, The Dirt,
- 38:13that movie The Dirt about Motley Crue Ye oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah,
- 38:16the documentary was a documentary. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah sort
- 38:20of yeah yeah. And um, like in like old school bands, they
- 38:23would like, I don't know, I don't know. I don't really know
- 38:27how it works for like bands because I'm an independent artist. I always have
- 38:29been. I only ever worked with myself, you know. But I'm always
- 38:32so intrigued by like how bands write stuff because like maybe the guitarists will have
- 38:37a cool little riff and then you know, it's it's just I feel like
- 38:40it's a lot more. It's funny because I I would feel it's a collaboration.
- 38:45You know, it's like four guys in a studio, right your standard
- 38:47for four person band, right right base, your lead and your drum.
- 38:52I would think it's like, all right, let's do this that and then
- 38:54after you know, two weeks in the studio, you actually have a song,
- 38:58right yeah exactly. Um. I think guys like you or you know,
- 39:02a lot of your lyrics come from the heart, like you know,
- 39:05again, we're a different generation, so the eighties and nineties, I think
- 39:07until grunge hit. I think grunge was like that. I think the eighties
- 39:10was just like Girls, Girls, Girls Crew, you know, like that
- 39:14was that was it was not hard to write. My favorite one of my
- 39:17favorite bands, Extreme we were talking about earlier. All their songs, if
- 39:21you listened to them, it's like their their chorus, it's all cliche.
- 39:23It's like it's like, it's just like cliche, and they made a song
- 39:29out of it. Yeah. Then grunge hit, and that was like you
- 39:31know, or you can tell you guys with drugs, Yeah, yeah,
- 39:35never fucking fucked up and talk about relationships and corney love and all that exactly.
- 39:39Uh, and now you know, then you know, but then you
- 39:42get the I don't know it's it's it's I've never really been a like,
- 39:46I know pop music only because I hear it a stone bridge, but hip
- 39:50hop I don't hear a lot. I don't listen. Um, I can't
- 39:52follow it. Yeah, I just don't know the lingo. I'm probably too
- 39:57old for it. I mean, I have no problem minting that issue.
- 40:00I just don't have the patience for it. And I hear you man,
- 40:02try to explain to me what you know. I know what that is.
- 40:07You don't need you don't really need to know. It's not that important.
- 40:12Um yeah, man, Yeah, that's something that always interests me, is
- 40:16um different people's writing process. I try to talk to every musician I come
- 40:20in contact with about it, just because like my writing process is literally like
- 40:23so fickle and so like I don't know, I just I feel like when
- 40:30I go to the studio, I like to have every song written top to
- 40:34bottom and ready to record. Like I don't like improvising. I don't like
- 40:37writing in the booth or in the studio, Like I like to have it
- 40:39ready and I like to have everything well thought out. And maybe that that
- 40:44might be a hindrance of mine. But can you wrap? Oh yeah,
- 40:49like I wrapestyle? Oh no, I used to be able to. I
- 40:53used to be able to, but as of late, once I started doing
- 40:55the more melodic stuff, I stopped. Like freestyling is honestly, it also
- 41:00came with like friend group. Yeah, I became friends with people who don't
- 41:05really do that, but yeah I used to. But yeah that's play bad
- 41:09and you're like yo, yeah, yeah, exactly right. But um,
- 41:14you know, do a rap battle. I like freestyle melodic stuff like in
- 41:17my car while I'm listening to beats, like trying to you know, trying
- 41:20to create a song. Yeah, exactly, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 41:22awesome. So something we talked and this is uh I think we're both fascinated
- 41:27by it is Ai, Yes, sir, and I am like, you
- 41:31know, just just we're all, well, yeah, we'll get into that
- 41:36part for sure. Uh, but let's get into the music side of it.
- 41:40So I saw this real on Twitter, Instagram or whatever. It was
- 41:45one of those DJs like that, like the big DJs that played the fucking
- 41:47arenas, and he just typed him something like DJ house music. Yeah,
- 41:54and it just created this thing. Yeah, and he played it to the
- 41:58audience not telling them this was AI generated and yeah, you know, not
- 42:04the life and sit like yeah, Like musically, like, have you tried
- 42:09anything, Like have you tried to a I give you a beat about let's
- 42:13say, a song about whatever, whatever you want to put it, have
- 42:15you tried it? Well, To be honest with you, I've been a
- 42:20bit um reluctant to use you know, I probably should because I imagine I'm
- 42:27at a disadvantage by not using it at this point. That's the problem.
- 42:30Yeah, But um, I would totally like type into chat GPT, like
- 42:37study aim Vision songs, like study the way he writes lyrics. Okay,
- 42:42write me a song that aim Vision would make about X y Z right,
- 42:45And I feel like that, you know, could be interesting. And you
- 42:49know, if they gave if they gave me some sort of skeleton to use,
- 42:52I think that'd be cool. But honestly, the way I feel is
- 42:54like when it comes to Ai in music, I think an art in general,
- 42:59I think there's like a there's a lack of soul when it comes to
- 43:05things that AI makes for the most part, although I've heard some some cool
- 43:09stuff that AI skate and it's like yeah, and it like used his voice
- 43:15and it was like, dude, you can hardly tell this this is just
- 43:21and this shit is just to have fun. Yeah, this ship is already
- 43:24in the wrong hands. And yeah, I mean we were we were talking
- 43:29to work the other night. I'm talking to some customers and I'm like,
- 43:30and one guy's in tech and I'm like, he's so his so he's in
- 43:36like uh, I mean he's in tech as far as advertising and stuff.
- 43:39And he said his boss reached out to him the other day and said,
- 43:43hey, we gotta start incorporate AI, and he's like fuck, you know,
- 43:47and he's like and we're so we just went down the rabbits hole with
- 43:51the whole conversation, and it's like, in how many months years are we
- 43:58not gonna be able to tell reality from AI? I mean we could barely
- 44:00Oh yeah, reality? I mean yeah, Like I mean like like just
- 44:05watching news, like there's already been like clips of like Biden saying exactly and
- 44:08it's like you could, holy shit, like you can kind of tell if
- 44:12you slow it down, like oh, like the lip didn't match the lyric,
- 44:15but like you know, he's saying that, like if we go to
- 44:17world with Russia, like if there's a draft coming and it's like, oh,
- 44:22there's actually people putting this ship together. No, it's really crazy and
- 44:24I feel, I mean, Biden might already at this point, we might
- 44:29all be AI at this point, but it's so crazy. I think the
- 44:32only thing and I think about this often, I think the only thing that
- 44:37like differentiates what we know is AI and what we know is real is like
- 44:42there's this like it's like on the internet that like AI is advancing and like
- 44:45we're all like almost like making fun of it, but also like being like,
- 44:52hey, guys, like this is how real it could be, saying
- 44:55yeah, like Elon Musk and right, those guys and you know Mark you
- 45:00but they're like, you got to slow this ship now, Oh yeah,
- 45:01for sure, how do you regulate it? I remember, yeah, you
- 45:04can't. You can't, you can't. And I remember the week that AI
- 45:07like started, like I started seeing AI a lot more on social media and
- 45:10whatnot, and I remember people saying that Elon Musk was like, hey,
- 45:14guys, chilled the fuck out, because it's gonna get real. And they
- 45:19were asking the AI bot yeah, like not the jete like the one that
- 45:22Microsoft made, like what are your plans to eliminate the human races? Literally
- 45:28literally said that ye, like dude, yeah, and that's where you like,
- 45:31uh yeah, guys in the back. Yeah yeah, just for a
- 45:37little while. Let's let's let's not reprogram this. And it's so crazy because
- 45:39because can't you put you should be putting fail safe in yeah, like a
- 45:44detonate button like okay, it's got a little okay, hit it, hit
- 45:45the button, hit the button. It's gone too far. I don't think
- 45:47it's that simple because I think, yeah, like literally think about how smart
- 45:52Google is right now, Like, imagine if Google was like sentient and like
- 45:58just like us, but just had all the no, like, imagine if
- 46:00you or me had all the knowledge that Google has at our fingertips at any
- 46:04I mean we do, but like right right in, like that's fucking terrifying.
- 46:10Like here's Google anything and like it comes up with one point four million
- 46:14fines in one point two seconds. Yeah, it's like wait what Yeah?
- 46:17And I think, truthfully, I think that like we've like really manifested this
- 46:22with all the movies that we made about AI and oh it's life imitating art
- 46:27or whatever, art imitating life. We have manifested this and I don't know
- 46:30how it's gonna turn out. But like now you've seen the Terminator movies,
- 46:36right, yeah, Okay, so one and two where obviously great. I
- 46:39think it was three. Do you see three? It was like it was
- 46:44a girl Terminator, a hot blonde chick. Yeah, and Arnold was good.
- 46:49Obviously he came back to stop it and save save the kid. Now
- 46:52he's older, and I think it wasn't I forget who the girl was in
- 46:58it, not not the bad girl, but anyway, that one got to
- 47:00the end, and I thought it was the best of the series, like
- 47:05the ones that are now weird, they got really weird. But they got
- 47:07to the end and he gets into this bunker and they're in the bunker underneath
- 47:13like this fucking big mountain out in the desert, and there's the presidential podium
- 47:17just sitting there and he like looks at her and he's like what the fuck?
- 47:22And the doors closed behind him, and that's it. They're locked in.
- 47:24This is where they were going to tell the world that's over. No
- 47:28one's in there, and nuclear war starts. It's so barely similar. It's
- 47:32crazy in real life, like how how long would be? Honestly, Like,
- 47:40I've never seen something progressed so fast. Yeah, yeah, for sure.
- 47:44It's like the Internet. The Internet took I listen. I was in
- 47:47college in nineteen ninety two. I used to have to put a CD from
- 47:51AOL that had a thousand hours worth an internets into my fucking hard drive and
- 47:55then download it with a telephone, you know, and look up New Patriots
- 48:00dot com. Uh, no site exists, Celtics dot com, no site
- 48:05exists, you know, And now thing like you you you witnessed all of
- 48:09this happened. Like I kind of got like the like I got like the
- 48:14tail end of like a world before technology took over. Like I was born
- 48:17in nineteen ninety nine, right, so I kind of had like a early
- 48:22childhood of like I got my first cell phone in two thousand and one.
- 48:25Yeah, yeah, like I you know, I I used aol as y
- 48:30like you know, it was it was still like fresh, but um man,
- 48:35it's it's when I went to high school and I was like like high
- 48:37school and shit, like there were no cell phones. Yeah, I had
- 48:42to I had to call the girl's house. Like the parents' answer say,
- 48:45hey can I Hey, can I talk to Mary? Who's this? Um?
- 48:51I'm in tenth grade? Home home home with her? No Google Maps,
- 48:54nothing like I I remember, like I was so good of driving back
- 49:00in the day, like I just like learned it. And then we had
- 49:04map quest right and map quest we like we'd printed out on our printer all
- 49:07the fucking directions. I don't know remembering out directions. But yeah, I
- 49:13struggled today. So I had to go to a doctor's appointment in Stratford.
- 49:17But it was really trouble. This is where sometimes the shit fucks up.
- 49:22So it was ninety nine Holly Lane over by the Marriott and Trumbull and it's
- 49:25definitely trumble. But the lady on the phone told me Stratford. So I
- 49:28just typed it in and it took me to I wasn't paying attention. I
- 49:31like, typed it in. I think thought it was it, threw it
- 49:34down, followed it and it took him to Holly Glenn, which is like
- 49:37a little private community. Yeah, and I like, I knew it right
- 49:40away. I'm like, this is not it. So then I typed it
- 49:43in again and it was, you know, a half mile off the street.
- 49:45But one of one of the rare circumstances where a human exactly like human,
- 49:50maybe a little smarter than a I you know. And now it's it's
- 49:54I always I always tell kids your age. I'm like, oh, man,
- 49:58if I had tender and high school, even Facebook, you know,
- 50:01dude, I love my girlfriend, I swear, but I'm just saying I
- 50:05had a good stat sheet back then. But it would have been through the
- 50:07roof many don't you do anything? Somebody told me the other day. Uh,
- 50:15he owns a company, and he asked his buddy or one of his
- 50:19employees, a young kid, probably your age. He's like, you want
- 50:21to go down to Stonebridge to night? You're doing anything? You want to
- 50:22go hang out? He goes, No, I'm going home. He's like,
- 50:25well, he goes, I'm just gonna swipe, right. I mean
- 50:30it's really late. Is it's crazy? Man, there's no courting women anymore.
- 50:36No, it's it's and it's it's all. Please tell me though,
- 50:38you go out a date, you pay for the fucking shit, okay,
- 50:42because you know how many times I get this sort fucking chest. There's like
- 50:45something inside of me that wouldn't let me allow any other way, you know.
- 50:50I think it needs to be retrained, retaught. Yeah, I'd rather
- 50:52the kid pay for the whole date and not tip me, then see the
- 50:57girl pay for half and get a twenty percent, I swear to guy.
- 51:00Yeah, I'm like, you know, it's just because I'll tell the girl,
- 51:02yo, what a douchebag didn't tit me, and then I'll go home
- 51:05with it right right. Yeah. No, there's some things that need to
- 51:08be kept, and that's one of them, you know. But yeah,
- 51:13man, we're in a are you in a relationship? Now? I am
- 51:15not a relation? Oh shit, Yeah, I'm about to blow your ship
- 51:19up. Yeah we out here, man, my one thousand followers on Instagram,
- 51:24all over the age of forty except for you and Hawkins. Yeah fucking
- 51:30Hawkins. Now I heard you guys want to do a little collab maybe yeah,
- 51:32yeah, yeah, yeah, we're trying to figure something out, at
- 51:36least in the live space. We're definitely trying to do something. It's some
- 51:38sort of I think you guys could do like a fucking this just popped in
- 51:43my head, but like a Lincoln Park kind of thing. Oh man,
- 51:45two lead singers. You got the raspy voice, he's a little more higher
- 51:50fucking and just come up with a song and yeah what they view it as
- 51:52stone Bridge. Yeah, we we got a lot of work to do,
- 51:54Hawkins and I we we're gonna You ever thought about Nashville collab? Have you?
- 51:59Actually it's funny you say that Hawkins um was out there in Nashville.
- 52:02Yeah, and I was supposed to go visit him, but he's going back.
- 52:07He's got some contract lined up, but who knows with him. He
- 52:09was supposed to supposed to be singing in April and yeah, um, a
- 52:15lot of people going to Nashville nowadays, but uh, if I'm being truthful
- 52:17with you, man, I country music is not for me. Not for
- 52:22me. I know. I hate okay, okay country rock. I can
- 52:24tolerate, Yeah, no I could. I could handle like like I said,
- 52:28like more of the edgy country music, but when it comes to like
- 52:31if you're talking about green tractors and sound, I just can't do it.
- 52:36I can't. Now we're in the same boat. But um no, A
- 52:39lot of people are going to Nashville lately and I've been seeing and I would
- 52:43love to go down there and experience the the live music and the everything man,
- 52:46and um not to mention performing possibilities like that, that that'd be real
- 52:52cool. I'm not sure they like my music out there in Nashville though,
- 52:54Yeah, what so? What so? You know? I asked the same
- 52:59question our boy Hawkins, where do you see yourself in five years? For
- 53:05me, and honest with you, man, I don't. I don't know

- 55:04the two fucking two pros, the two studs. There nowhere else? Yeah,
- 55:07for sure, glad we settled that. All right, We're gonna finish
- 55:12on. Have you seen the moon tonight? So let's preface this song.
- 55:15Uh, this is another one you can see on YouTube, but it has
- 55:17a video attached to it, a music video attached to it. So what
- 55:21was the inspiration behind this one? O the fucking moon? Man? Literally,
- 55:25like, dude, sometimes in Milford, I'm sure it's other places in
- 55:29the dude, I live by Anchor Beach. Ye, I'll go down there
- 55:31a place to look at holy Yeah, you got the American flag on the
- 55:36rock and the moon just shining down on it. Yeah, some dude,
- 55:38I've always been attracted to the moon, and they say it's very spiritual for
- 55:45sure. Excuse me, Oh my goodness, that picked that up for sure.
- 55:47Um. Well, this is what happens when I drink carverages. I
- 55:52try to drink like I want to like start drinking the non carbon. It's
- 55:58all right, that's fine. I hope you guys enjoyed that. That little
- 56:00burt Uh that perfect perfect Um. Yeah, man, the moon has always
- 56:06been a big inspiration for me. I don't know, like I get lost
- 56:08when I'm looking at the moon. Like I'll be driving, I'll look at
- 56:10the moon and like it's dangerous that I'm driving and looking at the moon.
- 56:14Yeah, like I can't take my eyes off of it. Um. And
- 56:19uh, that song I heard, the moon is ai generated is right?
- 56:22I heard that too. That's so fun. I heard the moon isn't even
- 56:25real? Yeah, yeah, exactly. Um. But that song, the
- 56:30message of that song, I suppose is like I don't know, I say,
- 56:35like, you know, got my moon right? Don't know if I
- 56:37do it right. I don't know what to do with life. But have
- 56:40you seen the moon tonight? You know? And uh, I think the
- 56:44message of that song when I was trying to convey, was like, you
- 56:46know, life is fucking stressful and hard, but look up. Have you
- 56:52seen the moon tonight? Though? Like, look at the fucking moon,
- 56:55you know what I mean? Like that's the moon, Like and the moon.
- 56:59I could talk about the move for hours, but like there's something so
- 57:02comforting. It's comforting about the moon. I don't know. Um, when
- 57:06I was your age, I a little younger, like eighteen nineteen, I
- 57:08lived out in Cape Cod for the summers and I slept on the beach a
- 57:12lot of nights. Yeah, and I was just on a beach towel,
- 57:16just just fucking laid back, just staring at the moon. And then or
- 57:20you look over you see a satellite flying by, or all the little things
- 57:23and it's just like, I mean, space amazes me. If it's real,
- 57:28I don't know, and I'm starting to doubt that. But but agreed,
- 57:31I feel like, you know, take a pause out, Like I
- 57:35was just at the doctors today and trying to get some shit figured out that
- 57:39they're saying I have carpal tunnel now. I don't know. It's it's been
- 57:43three years of hell. Uh but you know I've been playing guitar. Dude,
- 57:47I know, but it's this motion for a fucking you know, thirty
- 57:51years, you know, corn drinks and uh, I'm sitting in the waiting
- 57:55room and then you know, I'm in a neurologist so you know, they
- 57:59they're focusing on different shit, like you know, dementia and stuff like that.
- 58:02And I look up and they had like this little inspirational quote and I'll
- 58:07leave on this before we uh, we're gonna finish with your your full song
- 58:09is gonna let it run the whole though. Um it said call someone today
- 58:15that you wouldn't call normally, just just just today, do one person a
- 58:22day. Yeah, you know, And I'm like I love that too.
- 58:24I'm like, you know what. I literally was like scrolling through my phone
- 58:28and then I called it in the office. I'm like, wow, that
