- 6:40SPEAKER_05: All these girls want to come to my hotel room.
- 6:45SPEAKER_05: Yeah, it's probably not a good idea.
- 6:49SPEAKER_05: I'm like, and then like a couple of the parents are sitting next to me, and I'm like, you know, I'm a teacher.
- 6:56SPEAKER_05: Yeah.

- 7:26SPEAKER_03: Good, good.
- 7:27SPEAKER_03: Probably probably for the best.
- 7:28SPEAKER_05: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 7:29SPEAKER_05: So that was and so what had happened was Billy uh we went uh we went uh after we went to the pool, we were gonna go back to the room, but we went to uh there was like this dining area, and um friends of ours were in there having pizza, so they invited us in, so we went in and had some pizza.
- 7:48SPEAKER_05: And uh Billy got me a Bud Light.
- 7:52SPEAKER_05: Like she I got something for you, and she got me and I didn't drink it, it was she was very nice of her.
- 7:58SPEAKER_05: And then she made the offer, she says, I'll tell you what, she says, if you guys want to come to our room for a while and just watch movies or something like that.
- 8:06SPEAKER_05: And I said, Oh, that that'd be fun.
- 8:07SPEAKER_05: And so Myra's like, Yeah, yeah.
- 8:10SPEAKER_06: So I went back to my hotel room and I just kind of vegged out and watched TV all by myself.
- 8:17SPEAKER_06: And I was like, thank you so much.
- 8:20SPEAKER_05: Um and then the next morning we get up and we go to the Continental Breakfast, and that same family that was having the pizza, their one of their youngest boys, he's about six maybe, uh, is down there by himself.
- 8:33SPEAKER_05: He's getting his own breakfast.

- 9:23SPEAKER_05: He wasn't gonna eat it.
- 9:24SPEAKER_05: He was just I think he was just decorating it.
- 9:27SPEAKER_05: He didn't eat it.
- 9:28SPEAKER_05: So thankfully.
- 9:28SPEAKER_03: Could you imagine if he did, he wouldn't have been friggin' wired for about two, three hours and then crash.
- 9:34SPEAKER_05: Right.

- 12:25SPEAKER_05: A sharp door handle, obviously.
- 12:26SPEAKER_03: Yeah, barely, but uh it was deeper than I thought.

- 12:35SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 12:35SPEAKER_03: You know?
- 12:36SPEAKER_03: So then I finally got it to stop bleeding, and that was fine.
- 12:39SPEAKER_03: Then I went to work the next day.
- 12:41SPEAKER_03: And it started bleeding again.
- 12:42SPEAKER_03: I was like, you gotta be kidding me.
- 12:44SPEAKER_05: That must be pretty deep then.
- 12:45SPEAKER_03: Well, I think I hit it on something and then it just opened it up again.
- 12:49SPEAKER_03: I was like, well, friggin' eh, dude.
- 12:50SPEAKER_05: Yeah, but uh that's a sharp doorknob, huh?
- 12:52SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I know.
- 12:53SPEAKER_03: I couldn't believe it.
- 12:53SPEAKER_03: That's that you know, people grab hold of that.
- 12:55SPEAKER_03: Why would you make it sharp?
- 12:56unknown: Right.
- 12:57SPEAKER_03: I don't understand it.
- 12:57SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 12:58SPEAKER_03: But anyway, now it's uh so I've been going to work, bandaged in it and wearing one latex glove to protect it.
- 13:06SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's it's it's healing, but you know, it's just like it kept opening up, and I'm like, blood thinners, you know, you're just gonna bleed forever.
- 13:15SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 13:15SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
- 13:16SPEAKER_05: Yep.
- 13:17SPEAKER_03: That was just that was just mad.

- 13:30SPEAKER_03: I just wasn't sure if you had I uh I actually toyed with the idea of uh super glue to close it, but nah.
- 13:38SPEAKER_03: I was like, I couldn't find any.
- 13:40SPEAKER_03: Mostly that's why I didn't do it.

- 14:30SPEAKER_03: So that could be an issue.
- 14:31SPEAKER_03: That's more fun though.
- 14:32SPEAKER_03: It is, but it's it could be nobody will notice.
- 14:36SPEAKER_03: It could be problematic.
- 14:37SPEAKER_03: Nobody will notice.
- 14:38SPEAKER_03: You know, I'm just like, you know, there was like that new radical song.
- 14:42SPEAKER_05: Yeah, yeah.
- 14:43SPEAKER_03: I don't know about yeah, yeah, uh I was like, what is that word?
- 14:49SPEAKER_03: Uh I'll just make something up.
- 14:51SPEAKER_03: But you know, the problem is is is now it's sticking.
- 14:54SPEAKER_03: So now the part that you made up, you made it, yeah.
- 14:56SPEAKER_03: So when I go to actually look up the words, look at which I probably should do anyway.
- 15:01SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 15:02SPEAKER_03: Um, it's gonna be hard to go back to the real words, and and I'm probably just gonna keep the words that I made up.
- 15:08SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 15:09SPEAKER_05: Which is fine.
- 15:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah, nobody's gonna know the difference.
- 15:11SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I mean, I'm so but I'm really excited about this project.
- 15:14SPEAKER_05: Well, yeah, he knows let's just give people just an idea of what's going on.
- 15:18SPEAKER_05: Um, so we as a unit have played have rehearsed what twice?
- 15:26SPEAKER_03: Two or three times.
- 15:27SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 15:28SPEAKER_03: And that was that was last spring.
- 15:29SPEAKER_05: I remember twice.
- 15:31SPEAKER_03: It might be, yeah.
- 15:32SPEAKER_03: I know at least twice.
- 15:33SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 15:34SPEAKER_05: I remember twice.
- 15:35SPEAKER_05: Maybe well, I suppose it could be three times.
- 15:37SPEAKER_05: I don't remember.
- 15:38SPEAKER_05: But um it was so it's it's John Simonoff, bass player for The Syndicate, Chris Morton, drummer for the syndicate, myself on guitar, and you're singing.
- 15:49SPEAKER_05: Yes.
- 15:50SPEAKER_05: And we just kind of got together and started learning some songs for fun.
- 15:55SPEAKER_05: Really not thinking anything would ever come of it.
- 15:57SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 15:58SPEAKER_05: And so far nothing has.
- 16:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 16:01SPEAKER_05: But um now there's a little bit of pressure, and we call ourselves Skinny Elvis, by the way.
- 16:07SPEAKER_05: There's a little bit of pressure because uh we went and took a gig.
- 16:11SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 16:12SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 16:13SPEAKER_03: So now we actually gotta put up or shut up.
- 16:16SPEAKER_05: Yeah, we took a gig in May, so we've got a little bit of time.
- 16:19SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 16:19SPEAKER_05: But we have to learn, and and uh honestly, the songs that we learned on the first couple rehearsals, yeah, I don't remember them.
- 16:28SPEAKER_05: Yeah, it was there's a couple that I might be able to to to make my way through.
- 16:32SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 16:32SPEAKER_05: But like like that New Radicals, I wouldn't have a clue.
- 16:35SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 16:36SPEAKER_03: I think the only one we've done since then was the red hot chili peppers.
- 16:39SPEAKER_05: Chili peppers, hump de bump, yeah.
- 16:41SPEAKER_05: Yeah, yeah.
- 16:42SPEAKER_05: So um so I'm gonna have to make a list and I mean I I started a list, I think.
- 16:48SPEAKER_03: Well, I'm I'm may I'm I'm trying to make myself I've because I've made the songs that I know that we've talked about, and I I hope I got them all.
- 16:58SPEAKER_03: I made a playlist on my iPod and I try to play it.
- 17:01SPEAKER_05: That's a good idea.
- 17:02SPEAKER_03: I put I try to play it at least once a day.
- 17:04SPEAKER_05: Yep.
- 17:04SPEAKER_03: You know, just to get you know, just to drive the lyrics into the rock.
- 17:09SPEAKER_05: Yep.
- 17:10SPEAKER_03: I call my brain.
- 17:12SPEAKER_05: So Yeah, no, that's a good idea.
- 17:14SPEAKER_03: But it it but it you know, it's gonna help with timing and phrasing and everything like that.
- 17:19SPEAKER_03: You know, if I can if I can go off that, it'll make it a lot I'll be a lot more confident.
- 17:24SPEAKER_05: Oh yeah.
- 17:25SPEAKER_03: Because I'm not a lead singer.
- 17:26SPEAKER_03: So I'm I just you know, I want to do the best job I can.
- 17:30SPEAKER_05: I'm I'm excited about it.
- 17:31SPEAKER_05: I think it's a good one.
- 17:32SPEAKER_03: I am I'm looking forward to it.
- 17:33SPEAKER_03: It's gonna be really fun.
- 17:34SPEAKER_05: I just have to sit down and and do my homework.
- 17:37SPEAKER_05: I just have to like learn all the little because I'm the only guitar player, and some of these songs have like multiple guitars, so I'll have to kind of incorporate different different things.
- 17:47SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you know, to but I I have faith in you.
- 17:50SPEAKER_03: Thanks, man.
- 17:51SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 17:51SPEAKER_03: You're gonna do it, man.
- 17:52SPEAKER_05: At least one of us does.
- 17:54SPEAKER_05: Um speaking of uh having faith in something and maybe not having faith in something, or uh the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Boo Exactly is uh announcing their new batch of nominees.
- 18:06SPEAKER_05: Kind of early, isn't it?
- 18:07SPEAKER_05: This coming Wednesday.
- 18:08SPEAKER_05: It seems early.
- 18:09SPEAKER_05: Um this coming Wednesday, and um so we don't know who they are yet, but they will be announcing them.
- 18:17SPEAKER_05: Uh and they're just nominees.
- 18:18SPEAKER_05: This doesn't mean they're going in.
- 18:19SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 18:19SPEAKER_05: So they're just being nominated.
- 18:21SPEAKER_05: Um so I found a thing on ultimate classicrock.com which I think is timely.
- 18:28SPEAKER_05: And it may surprise you.
- 18:31SPEAKER_05: Um the title of it is 137 Artists Not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 18:38SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 18:39SPEAKER_03: Now, I looked at the That seems like a lot.
- 18:42SPEAKER_03: That's an odd number.
- 18:43SPEAKER_05: 137.
- 18:44SPEAKER_05: It is technically an odd number.
- 18:45SPEAKER_03: Well, technically it is, mathematically speaking.
- 18:47SPEAKER_03: But it does seem But that's an odd.
- 18:50SPEAKER_05: And I think it's probably the person that came up with the list just stopped at 137.
- 18:54SPEAKER_03: I could thousand nine hundred and forty-three people to underrock.
- 18:59SPEAKER_03: But the um so You know who's not in Rock and Hall Hall of Fame?
- 19:04SPEAKER_05: Who?
- 19:05SPEAKER_03: Us.
- 19:06SPEAKER_05: Well, this is true.
- 19:07SPEAKER_05: So there's 138.
- 19:08SPEAKER_05: 138.
- 19:09SPEAKER_03: 138, 139.
- 19:11SPEAKER_05: Um listen, so what you're gonna hear is and and some of them I understand, I guess, a little uh as to why they're not in.
- 19:19SPEAKER_05: Some of them are already in with another band.
- 19:23SPEAKER_05: And they may have had a solo career.
- 19:25SPEAKER_05: They've had a solo career and their solo career's not in yet.
- 19:28SPEAKER_05: Uh, you know, like individually.
- 19:30SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
- 19:31SPEAKER_05: You know, I I get that too a little bit.
- 19:34SPEAKER_05: Some of them some of them that they listed, I should say, didn't have as big a splash or influence in the pantheon of rock and roll that I think you have to have.
- 19:48SPEAKER_03: Dolly party.
- 19:51SPEAKER_03: Excuse me.
- 19:52SPEAKER_03: Sorry about that.
- 19:53SPEAKER_03: That's right.
- 19:53SPEAKER_05: That I think you have to have to get in.
- 19:55SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 19:55SPEAKER_05: And and keep in mind, I really don't care about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 19:59SPEAKER_05: I don't like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because I don't like the voting block.
- 20:04SPEAKER_05: I don't think they know what they're doing.
- 20:05SPEAKER_03: I know they're trying to keep it Well Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is like communism.
- 20:10SPEAKER_03: It's good on paper.
- 20:11SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 20:12SPEAKER_03: You know?
- 20:12SPEAKER_05: Yep.
- 20:13SPEAKER_03: So I mean just take it for what it's worth.
- 20:15SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 20:16SPEAKER_03: It but you know what I do like about it is it gives us something to talk about and complain about.
- 20:21SPEAKER_05: And complain it's true.
- 20:22SPEAKER_03: Because we are Statler and Waldorf.
- 20:24SPEAKER_05: It's true.
- 20:25SPEAKER_05: But you know what also I I like about it is you get bands that haven't performed together in a long time back together to put on a performance.
- 20:37SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 20:37SPEAKER_05: Not always, but a lot of times you do.
- 20:40SPEAKER_05: You know, like when Bon Jovi went in, they got they brought Richie back.
- 20:44SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 20:44SPEAKER_05: And played with Phil X.
- 20:46SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 20:46SPEAKER_05: You know?
- 20:47SPEAKER_05: Yeah, exactly.
- 20:47SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 20:48SPEAKER_05: Stuff like that.
- 20:48SPEAKER_05: That's great.
- 20:49SPEAKER_05: He's really cool.
- 20:49SPEAKER_05: That's great.
- 20:50SPEAKER_05: Journey.
- 20:51SPEAKER_05: Steve Perry came back.
- 20:52SPEAKER_05: He didn't think he sang.
- 20:54SPEAKER_05: I don't think they performed.
- 20:55SPEAKER_05: Uh but uh did they?
- 20:57SPEAKER_05: I don't think they did.
- 20:58SPEAKER_05: Maybe they did.
- 20:58SPEAKER_03: Maybe they didn't know.
- 20:59SPEAKER_05: But I don't Steve Perry didn't perform with them because that would have been big news.
- 21:02SPEAKER_03: That would have been huge.
- 21:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 21:04SPEAKER_05: So I just thought we'd go over this list.
- 21:06SPEAKER_05: I don't know if we'll go over all 137, uh, but I'll just kind of scroll through.
- 21:11SPEAKER_05: Sure.
- 21:11SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 21:12SPEAKER_05: And some of these may surprise you.
- 21:14SPEAKER_05: Um Brian Adams.
- 21:19SPEAKER_03: I'm not surprised.
- 21:21SPEAKER_05: You're not.
- 21:22SPEAKER_05: He was he's been eligible since 2005.
- 21:24SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 21:24SPEAKER_03: What are the what's the requirements again?
- 21:27SPEAKER_05: I think it's I think the eligibility I think it's eligibility requirements.
- 21:32SPEAKER_05: Actually, you know, let's that's that's a uh good question.
- 21:36SPEAKER_03: Because I'm not a hundred percent sure on what what it what the requirements are to be.
- 21:40SPEAKER_03: Well I know it's 25 years.
- 21:43SPEAKER_03: 25 years from what?
- 21:44SPEAKER_03: Your first album, your first your debut album, or your what?
- 21:51SPEAKER_05: Uh let's see.
- 21:55SPEAKER_05: Um I click on that, what happened?
- 22:01SPEAKER_05: Oh, it's porn.
- 22:02SPEAKER_05: No, I'm just kidding.
- 22:08SPEAKER_02: Eligibility for rock and roll hope.
- 22:11SPEAKER_02: What?
- 22:12SPEAKER_05: Give me just a second.
- 22:13SPEAKER_05: No.
- 22:15SPEAKER_02: What's he doing to her?
- 22:18SPEAKER_03: Is that how you get in the rock and roll hall of fame?
- 22:21SPEAKER_06: Actually, yes.
- 22:22SPEAKER_06: That's exactly what I'm saying.
- 22:23SPEAKER_03: I was about to tell you, that's kind of what you have to go through.
- 22:27SPEAKER_05: Of course, my internet's not.
- 22:28SPEAKER_03: Take it up the towel pipe!
- 22:29SPEAKER_05: My internet's not working uh very well.
- 22:32SPEAKER_05: Let's see.
- 22:34SPEAKER_05: Um that's membership.
- 22:37SPEAKER_05: I don't want membership.
- 22:39SPEAKER_05: Um let's see.
- 22:41SPEAKER_05: Eligibility requirements for an artist to get in to the rock and roll hall of fame.
- 22:56SPEAKER_05: Um well it just says who is eligible.
- 22:59SPEAKER_05: I don't care.
- 22:59SPEAKER_05: I don't care who is.
- 23:01SPEAKER_05: How do you get in the wrong role hall of fame?
- 23:02SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 23:02SPEAKER_05: What are the rules?
- 23:03SPEAKER_05: Here we go.
- 23:04SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 23:04SPEAKER_05: This is from Uprox.
- 23:07SPEAKER_05: Um I assume a trustworthy source.
- 23:09SPEAKER_05: An artist, I guess.
- 23:10SPEAKER_05: Uprocks has got two X's.
- 23:12SPEAKER_03: Oh, well, definitely It's definitely trustworthy then.
- 23:17SPEAKER_03: If it was triple X, then we'd definitely be in the porn.
- 23:22SPEAKER_05: An artist becomes eligible for inclusion in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 25 years after they release their first album.
- 23:27SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 23:28SPEAKER_05: For example, this this year marks Eminem's first year of eligibility because it's been 25 years, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 23:33SPEAKER_05: Additionally, artists can be nominated and inducted into the hall based on four categories performer, um singers, vocal groups, bands, early influences, artists from early eras that include country folk, jazz, and blues, non-performers, record label executives, songwriters, and so on.
- 23:52SPEAKER_05: Uh, and side men, veteran session and concert players.
- 23:56SPEAKER_05: Oh.
- 23:57SPEAKER_05: So 25 years after their debut album comes.
- 24:00SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 24:01SPEAKER_03: All right.
- 24:01SPEAKER_03: So 25 years after okay.
- 24:04SPEAKER_05: So so Brian Adams was, like I said, eligible in 2005, which was 25 years after his first album.
- 24:11SPEAKER_03: So 1980.
- 24:12unknown: Yeah.
- 24:13SPEAKER_05: Right?
- 24:13SPEAKER_05: Something like that.
- 24:14SPEAKER_05: 7980?
- 24:15SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 24:15SPEAKER_05: Wow.
- 24:15SPEAKER_05: Something like that.
- 24:16SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 24:16SPEAKER_03: Um But I'm not I don't know why, but I'm not surprised he's not in.
- 24:22SPEAKER_05: Um I am surprised he's not in, because I thought Reckless was a hugely influential album.
- 24:27SPEAKER_03: Oh, I'm not saying it wasn't huge, but for some reason he's just kind of eh.
- 24:34SPEAKER_05: He's s sort of vanilla now.
- 24:37SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 24:38SPEAKER_03: I mean his his But even when he was huge, he didn't like he didn't really, you know, set the world on fire.
- 24:45SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 24:46SPEAKER_03: You know what I mean?
- 24:46SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 24:47SPEAKER_03: He was just he was just it was just good, solid, good music.
- 24:50SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 24:51SPEAKER_03: You know, so I think I don't know what the rock and roll hall is looking for.
- 24:56SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 24:57SPEAKER_03: I mean, but I mean, I don't know.
- 25:01SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
- 25:01SPEAKER_03: I don't know what I'm trying to say.
- 25:02SPEAKER_03: Um I'm just I'm just not hugely surprised that he's not in.
- 25:06SPEAKER_05: Okay, well, there'll be some that you are surprised.
- 25:08SPEAKER_05: Oh, I'm sure, yeah.
- 25:08SPEAKER_05: Allison Chains.
- 25:10SPEAKER_05: Again, I'm not surprised.
- 25:12SPEAKER_03: I'm not surprised by that.
- 25:14SPEAKER_05: Um Greg Allman as a solo artist.
- 25:16SPEAKER_05: He's already in with the Almond Brothers.
- 25:17SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I was about to say, wasn't he isn't the Allman Brothers in?
- 25:19SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 25:19SPEAKER_05: But Greg Allman's solo career was not huge.
- 25:25SPEAKER_03: Not really.
- 25:26SPEAKER_05: I mean, it was I mean, he had hits.
- 25:28SPEAKER_03: Which Alman did we see with B.B.
- 25:29SPEAKER_03: King?
- 25:30SPEAKER_05: Oh, that was Dwayne.
- 25:31SPEAKER_03: Dwayne.
- 25:31SPEAKER_05: Dwayne Allman, yeah.
- 25:32SPEAKER_05: He was yeah, it was after he left the Almond Brothers.
- 25:34SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 25:35SPEAKER_05: You know, this one surprised me.
- 25:36SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 25:38SPEAKER_05: America is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 25:42SPEAKER_03: I'm that doesn't really surprise me.
- 25:44SPEAKER_03: Really?
- 25:45SPEAKER_03: No.
- 25:47SPEAKER_03: Again, they're they're kind of like, eh.
- 25:49SPEAKER_03: I mean, they're good.
- 25:50SPEAKER_03: I like America.
- 25:51SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 25:52SPEAKER_03: America.
- 25:53SPEAKER_03: Uh but um I don't but they've never really stood out.
- 26:01SPEAKER_03: You know what I mean?
- 26:01SPEAKER_03: It's not like no, people aren't following them around like the dead.
- 26:06SPEAKER_03: Well, this is true.
- 26:08SPEAKER_05: Staple on like Oldie's radio.
- 26:10SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 26:11SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 26:11SPEAKER_03: I mean you hear an America song, you're like, ah yeah, yeah, I like the I like this song, man.
- 26:16SPEAKER_03: But they're not, they're not, they never, for me, never really.
- 26:21SPEAKER_05: I guess you're right.
- 26:22SPEAKER_05: I don't know.
- 26:22SPEAKER_05: I guess you're right.
- 26:23SPEAKER_05: Um I'm not surprised by this one.
- 26:26SPEAKER_05: Uh and again, I don't know who compiled this list, but Anthrax.
- 26:30SPEAKER_04: Well, I'm not surprised at all.
- 26:32SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 26:32SPEAKER_04: I'm not surprised one bit.
- 26:34SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 26:35SPEAKER_05: Argent.
- 26:36SPEAKER_05: Now, Argent, I had like they had like one hit.
- 26:41SPEAKER_05: Hold your head up.
- 26:42SPEAKER_05: Whoa, hold your head up.
- 26:45SPEAKER_05: And that was like their their only hit, really.
- 26:47SPEAKER_05: Uh Rod Argent.
- 26:49SPEAKER_05: Um, he was in the zombies.
- 26:51SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 26:52SPEAKER_05: But I still don't know.
- 26:54SPEAKER_05: I still don't know that they belong in the rock and roll house.
- 26:57SPEAKER_03: I would say if you only had one hit, nah.
- 27:00SPEAKER_05: Asia.
- 27:03SPEAKER_03: Okay, I'm not super surprised.
- 27:05SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I'm not surprised either.
- 27:08SPEAKER_05: Um Bachman Turner Overdrive.
- 27:11SPEAKER_03: Okay, now I'm surprised.
- 27:12SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 27:13SPEAKER_03: I'm really surprised B B2 is not in there.
- 27:15SPEAKER_05: Yeah, me too.
- 27:16SPEAKER_05: Well, I think uh Randy Bachman, let's see.
- 27:19SPEAKER_05: Founding member Randy Bachman has also been in the running since '91 with his previous band, The Guess Who.
- 27:24SPEAKER_05: I was going to see if they were.
- 27:25SPEAKER_05: Is the Guess Who in?
- 27:26SPEAKER_05: Uh he did an inswords when the subject came up in the 2012 interview, going as far to wonder if it was because they're Canadian.
- 27:33SPEAKER_05: He says it really pisses me off every uh every year.
- 27:35SPEAKER_05: I don't begrudge the groups that get in, but being in the Guess Who in their peak years, the American Woman years, when I wrote the songs, and Bachman Turner Overdrive during the peak years when we were selling 20, 30, 40 million records to not get a nod from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 27:49SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 27:50SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but look how long it took Rush to get in.
- 27:52unknown: I know.
- 27:53SPEAKER_05: Which is a crime.
- 27:54SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 27:55SPEAKER_03: So so it can't be a Canadian thing either, because they're Canadian.
- 28:01SPEAKER_05: This one I'm surprised by.
- 28:03SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 28:04SPEAKER_05: Bad company.
- 28:05SPEAKER_03: I am surprised by that.
- 28:06SPEAKER_05: They are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 28:09SPEAKER_05: They've been eligible for 23 years.
- 28:12SPEAKER_05: Wow.
- 28:12SPEAKER_05: They've been eligible since 2000, but they've never even been nominated.
- 28:17SPEAKER_05: Really?

- 28:33SPEAKER_05: He says, Well, in for a penny, in for a pound.
- 28:36SPEAKER_05: I think the induction process sucks.
- 28:38SPEAKER_05: I really do.
- 28:40SPEAKER_03: I like this guy.
- 28:41SPEAKER_05: He says, I think it's political.
- 28:42SPEAKER_05: I think that maybe along the way we made some enemies.

- 29:02SPEAKER_05: Yeah, not really.
- 29:04SPEAKER_05: At some point, maybe.
- 29:06SPEAKER_03: I think it'll be a while, but they may make it in there.
- 29:10SPEAKER_03: But if they don't, it's not a big loss to be, you know.
- 29:13SPEAKER_05: Notice I'm going in alphabetical order.
- 29:15SPEAKER_05: Yes.
- 29:15SPEAKER_05: Blackfoot.

- 30:53SPEAKER_03: I don't even know who he is.
- 30:54SPEAKER_03: Sorry, man.
- 30:56SPEAKER_05: Um let's see Blue Cheer.
- 31:00SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 31:01SPEAKER_03: See, I I barely recognize the name of the band, so this band I would put in.
- 31:06SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 31:07SPEAKER_05: Maybe they'll get nominated this year, I doubt it.
- 31:09SPEAKER_05: But Blue Oyster Cult.
- 31:10SPEAKER_03: I'm a little surprised.
- 31:12SPEAKER_05: I would put I would put that in 40 plus years.
- 31:14SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 31:15SPEAKER_05: Uh this one, I'm not surprised.
- 31:18SPEAKER_05: Uh John Bon Jovi.
- 31:20SPEAKER_05: I don't know why you would put him on here.
- 31:22SPEAKER_05: He had he had what, two solo albums?
- 31:24SPEAKER_05: Two.
- 31:26SPEAKER_03: And he did that uh Young Guns.
- 31:29SPEAKER_05: Yeah, Blaze of Glory.
- 31:30SPEAKER_05: Blaze of Glory, yeah.
- 31:31SPEAKER_05: And uh Miracle, which was great.

- 31:35SPEAKER_05: Um He's already in with for Bon Jovi.
- 31:38SPEAKER_03: I don't I don't see Yeah I don't really see that happening as a solo.
- 31:41SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 31:42SPEAKER_05: Now this one is criminal.
- 31:44SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 31:45SPEAKER_05: It's criminal that this band is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because of their huge influence on a lot of arena rock today.
- 31:56SPEAKER_05: Boston.
- 31:57SPEAKER_03: That's surprising is not in the I agree.
- 32:01SPEAKER_05: That's they've been eligible since 2002.
- 32:04unknown: Wow.
- 32:05SPEAKER_05: I think the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has a thing against like what you call arena rock.
- 32:10SPEAKER_05: I think they begrudgingly put Journey in.
- 32:13SPEAKER_05: Um and I think uh they did it just they put Bon Jovi in just to appease John Bon Jovi, I think.
- 32:19SPEAKER_03: Why would you want to appease him?
- 32:20SPEAKER_05: I I don't know, because he's been bitching about it.
- 32:22SPEAKER_05: Uh not not going in.
- 32:24SPEAKER_03: Is that the secret to getting into the rock and rolling?
- 32:27SPEAKER_03: Apparently squeaky wheel gets the grease kind of thing.
- 32:30SPEAKER_05: I don't know.
- 32:32SPEAKER_03: Um but that is surprising.
- 32:34SPEAKER_03: I'm surprised that Boston's not in.
- 32:35SPEAKER_03: Yeah, because that's really surprising.
- 32:37SPEAKER_05: Because I mean Richie Sambora points to Boston's you know first album as like what made him want to uh Brownsville Station.
- 32:48unknown: Yeah.
- 32:48SPEAKER_05: The original smoking in the boys room.
- 32:50SPEAKER_03: Yeah, not not surprised.
- 32:51SPEAKER_05: No, Kate Bush.
- 32:52SPEAKER_03: Not surprised.
- 32:53SPEAKER_05: Not surprised.
- 32:54SPEAKER_05: Canned Heat.
- 32:56SPEAKER_05: Not surprised.
- 32:56SPEAKER_05: Not surprised.
- 32:57SPEAKER_05: The Chambers Brothers.
- 32:59SPEAKER_05: Time has come today.
- 33:01SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I don't even recognize the name.
- 33:03SPEAKER_05: It's a great song, and they've you know had some good stuff, but I don't know if they're Rock and Roll Hall of Fame material.
- 33:08SPEAKER_05: This one uh surprised me.
- 33:10SPEAKER_05: Um Joe Cocker.
- 33:12SPEAKER_05: That is surprising.
- 33:13SPEAKER_05: Joe Cocker is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 33:15SPEAKER_03: I'm surprised by that.
- 33:16SPEAKER_05: Uh let's see.
- 33:17SPEAKER_05: Billy Joel voiced his support back in 2014, the same year Cocker died.
- 33:21SPEAKER_05: I'm amazed that he's not in yet, but I'm throwing in my vote for Joe Cocker.
- 33:25SPEAKER_05: Um, yeah, he's been eligible since 1995, but never even nominated.
- 33:30SPEAKER_05: Really?
- 33:31SPEAKER_05: Interesting.
- 33:32SPEAKER_05: Phil Collins was inducted as a member of Genesis in 2010, but his solo career he has not been put in.
- 33:39SPEAKER_03: That's a little surprising.
- 33:41SPEAKER_03: It is it is because he was because he was he was I think he was even bigger as a solo artist than he ever was with Genesis.
- 33:47SPEAKER_05: Absolutely.
- 33:47SPEAKER_05: So no question.
- 33:49SPEAKER_05: You know that Crosby Stills, Nash, and Young are not in the Rock and Rolls.
- 33:53SPEAKER_03: Well, it's because of Neil Young.
- 33:54SPEAKER_03: Crosby Stills and Nash?
- 33:56SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 33:56SPEAKER_03: Young, ah no, forget it.
- 33:57SPEAKER_05: Oddly enough, all of the members of Crosby Stills, Nash and Young are in the rock hall, just not as a foresome.
- 34:03SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 34:03SPEAKER_05: I can understand that.
- 34:04SPEAKER_05: Crosby Stills and Nash is in.
- 34:06SPEAKER_05: They went in in 1997 without Neil Young.
- 34:09SPEAKER_05: Um and Neil and Neil Young is in there for um Well, I'm sure for Crazy Horse and Buffalo Springfield, I think too.
- 34:15SPEAKER_03: Oh, Buffalo Springfield, yeah.
- 34:16SPEAKER_05: Well, yeah.
- 34:17SPEAKER_05: Nash for the Hollies.
- 34:18SPEAKER_05: Oh no, Steven Stills was for Buffalo Springfield.
- 34:21SPEAKER_05: I'm just kind of scanning these.
- 34:23SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 34:23SPEAKER_05: The Cult.
- 34:26SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
- 34:26SPEAKER_03: I'm actually not surprised by that.
- 34:28SPEAKER_05: I don't think I am either.
- 34:29SPEAKER_05: I think the cult is I mean, I think they're a great band.
- 34:31SPEAKER_05: Awesome band.
- 34:32SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but I don't think they're quite there yet.
- 34:35SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I don't think so either.
- 34:37SPEAKER_05: Uh Roger Daltrey as a solo artist.
- 34:40SPEAKER_05: I wouldn't know that I'd put that.
- 34:42SPEAKER_03: I don't know if I'd put him in.
- 34:43SPEAKER_03: I because I don't I can't even tell you a Roger Daltrey song.
- 34:47SPEAKER_05: I can't either.
- 34:47SPEAKER_05: So honestly.
- 34:48SPEAKER_03: Why why bother?
- 34:49SPEAKER_05: The Spencer Davis group.
- 34:51SPEAKER_05: A little surprised.
- 34:52SPEAKER_05: A little surprised.
- 34:53SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 34:53SPEAKER_05: They were big in the the British invasion back in the 60s.
- 34:56SPEAKER_05: Steve Winwood was he said, I feel that he was influential in setting me on the road to becoming a professional musician, musician, and I thank him for that.
- 35:04SPEAKER_05: That's Stephen Winwood.
- 35:05SPEAKER_05: He said that in 2020.
- 35:08SPEAKER_05: Derek and the Dominoes.
- 35:09SPEAKER_05: I am not surprised.
- 35:10SPEAKER_03: Not surprised.
- 35:11SPEAKER_03: Because I only really had that one uh pretty much.
- 35:13SPEAKER_05: Yeah, so Layla and other assorted love songs.
- 35:16SPEAKER_05: Uh Rick Derringer.
- 35:18SPEAKER_05: Um I yeah.
- 35:20SPEAKER_03: I'm not really surprised.
- 35:22SPEAKER_03: I'm not either.
- 35:22SPEAKER_03: I'm not either.
- 35:23SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 35:24SPEAKER_05: Uh Dvo.
- 35:25SPEAKER_05: Not surprised.
- 35:26SPEAKER_03: Not surprised.
- 35:27SPEAKER_05: They they were nominated though recently.
- 35:29SPEAKER_05: Like last year or the year before.
- 35:31SPEAKER_03: Oh, that's right, yeah.
- 35:32SPEAKER_05: Dio.
- 35:34SPEAKER_03: I'm quite so I'm actually quite surprised Dio was not in.
- 35:37SPEAKER_03: Because of now is it Ronnie James Dio or is it Dio?
- 35:41SPEAKER_05: Dio.
- 35:41SPEAKER_03: Is Dio good.
- 35:42SPEAKER_05: Despite his successful stints in Rainbow and Black Sabbath and fronting his own band, Ronnie James Dio has never been given a rock and roll hall nod.
- 35:49SPEAKER_05: He was excluded from Sabbath's induction in 2006, and his group has gone without a nomination since 2009.
- 35:57SPEAKER_03: Um I mean, because Holy Diver is one of the best albums.
- 36:02SPEAKER_05: Oh yeah.
- 36:03SPEAKER_05: Holy Diver and and and his time in both Rainbow and Black Sabbath were the best well, not not Black Sabbath.
- 36:11SPEAKER_05: Although Black Sabbath, I think of Black Sabbath as as Ozzie Osborne's band.
- 36:14SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but I mean he he kept it going.
- 36:17SPEAKER_03: He did.
- 36:18SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 36:18SPEAKER_05: It was a different band.
- 36:19SPEAKER_03: It was different, but it kept it at least it kept it in the zeitgeist.
- 36:22SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 36:23SPEAKER_03: You know what I mean?
- 36:23SPEAKER_05: It was just like I watched the the documentary.
- 36:26SPEAKER_05: Um there's a documentary called Dreamers Never Die or something like that.
- 36:30SPEAKER_05: I haven't seen it yet.
- 36:31SPEAKER_05: I got it DVR'd and it was pretty good.
- 36:33SPEAKER_05: Yeah?
- 36:33SPEAKER_05: Yeah, it was pretty good.
- 36:33SPEAKER_03: I'll have to check it out.
- 36:35SPEAKER_05: Uh Emerson Lake and Palmer.
- 36:38SPEAKER_05: Um rock.
- 36:40SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but I'm not surprised.
- 36:42SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 36:42SPEAKER_05: I'm skipping some of these because I mean Brian Eno uh from Rocks and Music.
- 36:47SPEAKER_05: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 36:48SPEAKER_05: Fabulous Thunderbirds.
- 36:49SPEAKER_05: I don't know that I'd put them in there.
- 36:50SPEAKER_03: I wouldn't put them in.
- 36:51SPEAKER_05: I mean, I like them, but the band Focus.
- 36:54SPEAKER_05: Sounding.
- 36:54SPEAKER_06: Yadda yadda yadda.
- 36:57SPEAKER_05: Remember that member of that song?
- 36:58SPEAKER_05: Are you okay?
- 37:00SPEAKER_05: Hocus Pocus.
- 37:01SPEAKER_05: Do you need some more?
- 37:02SPEAKER_03: Do you remember that song?
- 37:03unknown: Yeah.
- 37:04SPEAKER_05: Hocus Pocus.
- 37:04SPEAKER_03: That was that was uh That was Focus.
- 37:06SPEAKER_03: Oh, I didn't know that.
- 37:07SPEAKER_05: Yeah, where they s where he sings sings uh whatever he's singing.
- 37:11SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 37:12SPEAKER_05: Um I don't see why they would go in the round.
- 37:15SPEAKER_03: I don't know if I wouldn't.
- 37:16SPEAKER_05: John Fogarty.
- 37:17SPEAKER_03: Okay, I'm surprised.
- 37:18SPEAKER_03: I mean you're sure he's a solo artist.
- 37:20SPEAKER_03: I'm I'm sure he's in his with CCR.
- 37:22SPEAKER_05: Let's see.
- 37:22SPEAKER_05: He's he refused to perform with his surviving bandmates when CCR was inducted in 1993.
- 37:28SPEAKER_05: Uh he became eligible for inclusion into the hall as a solo artist six years after that, but has yet to be nominated.
- 37:36SPEAKER_05: A little surprised.
- 37:37SPEAKER_05: Me too.
- 37:37SPEAKER_05: Fog hat.
- 37:40SPEAKER_03: Uh not really surprised.
- 37:43SPEAKER_03: Foreigner.
- 37:45SPEAKER_03: Very surprised.
- 37:46SPEAKER_05: I do think there's a thing against Arena Rock.
- 37:48SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 37:49SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 37:50SPEAKER_05: I don't know.
- 37:51SPEAKER_05: Peter Frampton is not in the Rock and Roll.
- 37:53SPEAKER_03: Peter Frampton not in the freaking roll girl.
- 38:00SPEAKER_06: She got so upset I forgot English.
- 38:02SPEAKER_06: That was amazing.
- 38:04SPEAKER_06: I wish I could rewind that just to listen to it again.
- 38:07SPEAKER_06: Can you do it in post?
- 38:08SPEAKER_06: I probably will.
- 38:11SPEAKER_03: We'll play it right here.
- 38:13SPEAKER_03: Okay, that's good.
- 38:15SPEAKER_03: Very funny, thank you.
- 38:17SPEAKER_03: No, but seriously.
- 38:20SPEAKER_04: I can't even do it.
- 38:21SPEAKER_04: I don't want to.
- 38:33SPEAKER_06: You are really upset.

- 38:40SPEAKER_03: I might as well have done that.
- 38:41SPEAKER_03: He's been eligible since 98, never even been nominated.
- 38:43SPEAKER_03: That's that that's really surprising.
- 38:46SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 38:46SPEAKER_03: I'm I'm maybe that maybe the most surprised I've been in this whole list.
- 38:50SPEAKER_05: Yeah, this whole list.

- 39:02SPEAKER_05: And I could I mean if they were nominated and went in, I would understand.
- 39:06SPEAKER_05: Sure.
- 39:07SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 39:07SPEAKER_05: Um I don't uh know that I'm surprised that they're not.

- 53:06SPEAKER_05: A little surprised by that.
- 53:07SPEAKER_03: Me too.
- 53:09SPEAKER_05: Steve Winwood is a solo artist.
- 53:11SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm surprised by that.
- 53:12SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 53:12SPEAKER_05: Weird Al Yankovic.
- 53:15SPEAKER_03: I would love to see Weird Al in there.
- 53:17SPEAKER_03: Me too.
- 53:17SPEAKER_03: To be honest with you, I love that guy so much.
- 53:19SPEAKER_03: I really love Weird Al.
- 53:20SPEAKER_05: And the last one, which I am really surprised, uh is Warren Zevon.
- 53:29SPEAKER_05: It says Warren Zevon became eligible in 1995, but has never been nominated.
- 53:35SPEAKER_05: In 2017, when Letterman inducted Pearl Jam into the hall, he added that he hoped one day he could return for the induction of his good friend Warren Zevon, who died in 2003.
- 53:45SPEAKER_05: Bob Dylan also gave a nod to Zevon in his music in his 2022 book, The Philosophy of Modern Song.
- 53:52SPEAKER_05: Being a writer is not something one chooses to do.
- 53:54SPEAKER_05: It's something you just do, and sometimes people stop and notice.
- 53:58SPEAKER_05: Warren was a writer till the very end.
- 54:00SPEAKER_05: I I really think Warren Zevon belongs to the Rock and Roll Hall.
- 54:03SPEAKER_03: I think so too, man.
- 54:04SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 54:05SPEAKER_05: And that's it.
- 54:06SPEAKER_05: So I mean a lot of them we agree with, and some of them we understand why they're not uh in in the rock hall.
- 54:14SPEAKER_03: So white zombie will never be in the rock and roll fair.
- 54:18SPEAKER_03: Sorry.
- 54:18SPEAKER_03: Maybe Rob Zombie will be.
- 54:21SPEAKER_03: Maybe.
- 54:22SPEAKER_03: That's a big maybe.
- 54:23SPEAKER_03: A white zombie never.
- 54:24SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 54:25SPEAKER_03: Rage Vance Machine, probably not.
- 54:27unknown: Yeah.
- 54:28SPEAKER_03: Anthrax.
- 54:28SPEAKER_03: I would love to see Anthrax go in and be actually, you know, because they were one of the big four of Trash.
- 54:33SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 54:34SPEAKER_03: Um but I don't, you know.
- 54:37SPEAKER_03: Well, because the only one of the four they've been in is Metallica.
- 54:41unknown: Right.
- 54:41SPEAKER_03: Megadeth's not in, Slayer's not in, Anthrax not in.
- 54:44SPEAKER_05: So I just think they have a thing against heavy metal and and really hard rock and arena rock.
- 54:51SPEAKER_05: I don't know.
- 54:51SPEAKER_05: I don't know what it is.
- 54:53SPEAKER_05: I don't once again, I hate the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 54:56SPEAKER_03: I hate, I hate, I hate them, but I'm intrigued by them.
- 55:00SPEAKER_05: Me too, that's why we're talking about it.
- 55:01SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 55:02SPEAKER_03: I'm always I'm always curious.
- 55:04SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 55:04SPEAKER_03: I I like I like to picture it like it's some sort of like secret cabal.
- 55:09SPEAKER_03: You know, they just sit in this big room and there's cigar smoke and they're drinking like you know, 25-year-old Scotch, and they're like, yeah, well, what about Steven Styles?
- 55:18SPEAKER_04: Nah I hate that mother F you know, you know, yeah, you know.
- 55:22SPEAKER_05: I'm gonna make a prediction.
- 55:23SPEAKER_05: Okay, go for it.
- 55:25SPEAKER_05: I think Wednesday, because he just announced that he's gonna go on a tour, like a farewell tour, because he's not in good health.

- 55:40SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 55:40SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 55:41SPEAKER_05: I think it's time.

- 55:47SPEAKER_03: Okay.

- 57:38SPEAKER_03: I don't even I don't even oh go ahead and read because I don't know anything about him.
- 57:42SPEAKER_05: When a shoulder injury sidelined his dream of becoming a professional golfer, Owen put down the clubs and borrowed a neighbor's guitar to pass the time.
- 57:50SPEAKER_05: Little did he know that his musical therapy would lead to ongoing chart success.
- 57:58SPEAKER_05: Barefoot Blue Jean Knight.
- 58:00SPEAKER_05: Uh um he ripped off uh John Mellencamp's Jack and Diane.

- 58:12SPEAKER_03: Why didn't why didn't she go with Buck Owens?
- 58:15SPEAKER_06: I'm curious as to whether Buck Owens is even in this book.
- 58:17SPEAKER_06: Well he can't be.
- 58:18SPEAKER_06: Because he's B B and O.
- 58:21SPEAKER_03: B and O.
- 58:23SPEAKER_03: We're not suggesting disclaimer.
- 58:26SPEAKER_03: Brian and Brian and Doug are not saying Buck Owens stinks.

- 1:04:36SPEAKER_03: O is for KRS 1.

- 1:04:44SPEAKER_03: While he initially used his free-flowing style to defend the Bronx's claim as the birthplace of hip-hop, KRS1 later shifted his focus to being a teacher, using his platform for political activism.

- 1:05:00SPEAKER_05: I don't know that I'm familiar with KRS1.
- 1:05:03SPEAKER_03: You probably if you saw him, you would probably be like, oh yeah, I've seen that guy.

- 1:05:08SPEAKER_05: Nope.
- 1:05:10SPEAKER_05: Alright then.

- 1:05:15SPEAKER_03: I know the name.
- 1:05:16SPEAKER_05: Yeah, but I don't know that I know any of his stuff.
- 1:05:18SPEAKER_05: Alright, I have an album in my corner over here.
- 1:05:26SPEAKER_05: So, uh it's time to uh let the guessing begin.
- 1:05:30SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 1:05:31SPEAKER_05: Alright.
- 1:05:35SPEAKER_05: What?

- 1:05:55SPEAKER_05: That's even weirder.
- 1:05:56SPEAKER_05: So I just keep it down here.
- 1:05:58SPEAKER_03: Probably a good thing.
- 1:06:01SPEAKER_03: Because if it smells anything like you have to something something tells me it smells like sadness and patheticness.
- 1:06:12SPEAKER_05: Actually it's not terrible.
- 1:06:16SPEAKER_05: I mean it's like axe.
