- 2:51Speaker 1: Yeah that's what we touched on last time. That was
- 2:54Speaker 1: kind of nice. Yeah, yeah, mixed it up. Yeah, like
- 2:58Speaker 1: you're talking about, well, you're talking about back in the day,
- 3:01Speaker 1: just when we still start.
- 3:04Speaker 5: You just play with any band that's still together, all
- 3:07Speaker 5: starting out. Yeah before you come like an old jadage
- 3:11Speaker 5: guy who goes to show you like everything when you're
- 3:15Speaker 5: a kid, every band is awesome. Every band is awesome.
- 3:19Speaker 5: So it's cool to show people different sub John. Here's
- 3:22Speaker 5: new styles too.
- 3:24Speaker 2: I just remember eating all.
- 3:25Speaker 6: That up when I was Yeah, every bands lost, every
- 3:28Speaker 6: band against that's nice. I remember I'm from Central Victoria
- 3:34Speaker 6: and we played with one metal band with Scott. I
- 3:39Speaker 6: just kind of went yeah, yeah, yeah, Scot, that was
- 3:42Speaker 6: on the cool band fair enough, that wasn't.
- 3:47Speaker 1: The police band. You know.
- 3:50Speaker 3: I played trumpet grades four through six and one of
- 3:54Speaker 3: my favorite bands of all time is Rock from the
- 3:56Speaker 3: Crimp and they have trumpet.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Probably we're not called Scott.
- 3:58Speaker 2: Were flirtatious, fly flirt.
- 4:01Speaker 1: With they got a brass section.
- 4:03Speaker 3: So I am not opposed to brass, but you do
- 4:07Speaker 3: have to be careful, see Scott.
- 4:09Speaker 5: Scott's one of those genres that could accidentally be huge
- 4:12Speaker 5: here because like you know, there's always this thing like
- 4:15Speaker 5: where you have like we there's like always some loss
- 4:17Speaker 5: in translation thing that happens with music from America to
- 4:21Speaker 5: other countries, and.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Sometimes it's better.
- 4:23Speaker 5: Sometimes Europe makes like metal bands better or something.
- 4:27Speaker 2: But you guys might think that.
- 4:29Speaker 5: We think Scott is way cooler than it is and
- 4:32Speaker 5: sort of like embrace it harder than God.
- 4:36Speaker 7: I really truly don't see the new turnstile has horns
- 4:40Speaker 7: on it, and so I I could see.
- 4:43Speaker 3: Them secretly putting out a Skot song and people.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Love it and then they go, wait a minute, is
- 4:52Speaker 1: that Scott?
- 4:53Speaker 7: I guess speaking Scott speaking, S'm not anti horn pro mean, you.
- 4:58Speaker 1: Just have to be careful. You have to be careful,
- 5:02Speaker 1: You have to be careful to see conclusion, Just be careful.
- 5:08Speaker 3: I did have a shirt that said kicking brass on
- 5:11Speaker 3: it when.
- 5:14Speaker 1: I was in sixth grade. I was leaning into my trumpet.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Loves it kind of works against what I was saying.
- 5:23Speaker 6: We're not bringing Scot in so no horns in the
- 5:26Speaker 6: next pro horns.
- 5:28Speaker 3: Yeah, I will say that I had a saxophone idea
- 5:35Speaker 3: for one of our songs and it never happened.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Andy.
- 5:38Speaker 8: Remember there was lots of every time, and he's always
- 5:42Speaker 8: got just cool, big, wild ideas, and some of them
- 5:46Speaker 8: you just kind of gotta wait until they need themselves out.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
- 5:52Speaker 9: I got it sometimes big and because you wanted a
- 5:55Speaker 9: saxophone player on the one record, on the one song,
- 5:58Speaker 9: and we're just like, Okay, if it had as it happens,
- 6:00Speaker 9: we'll just or.
- 6:01Speaker 3: Maybe he'll come and I'll forget tomorrow. Next thing, you know,
- 6:04Speaker 3: he's got a new band and it was Aphone pay Yeah.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:06Speaker 4: But at the time I was yeah, and I was like,
- 6:10Speaker 4: shout out to Andy, whatever what a speaks from big
- 6:16Speaker 4: nice guys.
- 6:17Speaker 1: He's like just he's like the Justin Herbert. He's definitely
- 6:21Speaker 1: bigger than wrestler. He's way scarier than Justin hurb And
- 6:25Speaker 1: what's the you me? Yeah, tell me? That was very
- 6:31Speaker 1: very mess People say that. Man.
- 6:34Speaker 3: There a couple of shows with them. Yeah, and then
- 6:37Speaker 3: you just I mean, you know, I don't know if
- 6:40Speaker 3: you know SuDS on a band of him and sounds
- 6:43Speaker 3: like I hear riffs and I go, oh.
- 6:46Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. You just know
- 6:50Speaker 1: yeah yeah. So it's got the little ext or something
- 6:53Speaker 1: and then you think it's done. It just keeps going.
- 6:55Speaker 1: But all I don't know. There was one riff on
- 6:57Speaker 1: the very last forty five second riff before it repeated.
- 7:03Speaker 5: And we did it like we wanted to do it
- 7:04Speaker 5: four times, and we had to do it like three
- 7:06Speaker 5: because we're like.
