- 0:53SPEAKER_06: I can't remember why.
- 0:54SPEAKER_06: Anyway, it doesn't matter.
- 0:55SPEAKER_08: Well, probably because all those the horror stories of people that bought tickets from Stubhub and never got them, and so they had to rebuy the tickets.
- 1:04SPEAKER_08: One I read about one dude.

- 1:11SPEAKER_06: Thousands of dollars, probably.
- 1:13SPEAKER_08: $21,000.
- 1:16SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 1:16SPEAKER_08: That's what he had to I don't know what he originally paid, but that's what he paid because StubHub screwed up and he didn't get his tickets.
- 1:27SPEAKER_06: I would have just said screw it.
- 1:28SPEAKER_08: What does this guy do for a living that he can just throw away 21?

- 1:45SPEAKER_08: I have no idea.
- 1:46SPEAKER_08: I have no desire to research it because I don't really care.
- 1:50SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 1:51SPEAKER_08: But I've never seen women regress so fast in my life than at a Taylor Swift concert.
- 1:58SPEAKER_06: Regress how?
- 1:59SPEAKER_08: They were they were all like the makeup and it was all fancy and they all had 13 written on their hands and they took pictures of it and they had the bracelets.

- 3:06SPEAKER_06: I have, yeah.
- 3:08SPEAKER_08: You don't actually see her.
- 3:10SPEAKER_08: Well, because we were Because you're in the nosebleeds.
- 3:13SPEAKER_08: Right, it's true.
- 3:14SPEAKER_08: Everybody almost everybody that I saw were in the nosebleeds.
- 3:17SPEAKER_08: The only close-up pictures they had of Taylor Swift were from the jumbotron screens.
- 3:22SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 3:22SPEAKER_06: Yeah, it's a social and cultural thing.
- 3:24SPEAKER_06: It's it's you know you're not I mean you can say you went to the concert, right?
- 3:29SPEAKER_06: But you didn't go to see Taylor Swift.
- 3:30SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 3:31SPEAKER_06: You went to be a part of the part of the audience.
- 3:33SPEAKER_08: Yeah, you're you're you're just what you're just a m you know faceless mask.
- 3:36SPEAKER_06: You can say I've been to see Taylor Swift.
- 3:38SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 3:38SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 3:39SPEAKER_08: That's well.
- 3:40SPEAKER_08: But I will tell you this.
- 3:41SPEAKER_08: I will tell you this.
- 3:42SPEAKER_08: I mean, Taylor Swift is like that big.
- 3:43SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 3:44SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 3:45SPEAKER_06: I will tell you this.
- 3:46SPEAKER_06: Uh two things.
- 3:47SPEAKER_06: Um Taylor Swift deserves everything she's got.
- 3:51SPEAKER_06: She puts on a good show.
- 3:52SPEAKER_06: At least she did when we went, which was years ago.
- 3:55SPEAKER_08: Well, I can see why the tickets are so expensive because she changes her outfit just about every song.
- 4:00SPEAKER_06: Well, here's the thing.
- 4:01SPEAKER_08: There there's I mean, there's like all kinds of like stuff going on.
- 4:06SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 4:07SPEAKER_08: It's it's like it's it's it's like a night at the opera.
- 4:10SPEAKER_06: Here's the other thing I want to say.
- 4:11SPEAKER_06: To the guy that spent$21,000 on tickets to see Taylor Swift, you're a douchebag.
- 4:16SPEAKER_08: Well, I don't think he went.
- 4:17SPEAKER_08: I think it was just for his daughter.
- 4:19SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 4:19SPEAKER_08: I don't care.
- 4:19SPEAKER_06: You're still a douchebag.
- 4:20SPEAKER_06: You could have you could have fed some people at the homeless shelter.
- 4:23SPEAKER_06: Oh, for 21 grand.
- 4:25SPEAKER_06: Are you kidding me?
- 4:26SPEAKER_06: Come on.
- 4:26SPEAKER_08: That's like that's like I can see if some people don't even make that in a year.
- 4:32SPEAKER_06: If if I can see if you there's an artist you really want to see, uh, and m maybe you don't think you'll get the chance again.
- 4:39SPEAKER_06: Like, if I had a chance to see Eric Clapton for a thousand dollars, I would try and scrounge up a thousand dollars.
- 4:47SPEAKER_06: Sure.
- 4:48SPEAKER_06: Or fifteen hundred dollars.
- 4:49SPEAKER_08: I get that, yeah.
- 4:49SPEAKER_06: You know?
- 4:50SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 4:50SPEAKER_06: If it but anything more than that, sorry, slow hand.
- 4:57SPEAKER_06: It ain't happening.
- 4:59SPEAKER_06: It's been fun.
- 5:00SPEAKER_06: You know, exactly.
- 5:01SPEAKER_08: For a comparison, because Metallica's gonna be a Gillette in August.
- 5:06SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 5:06SPEAKER_08: So I looked it up.
- 5:07SPEAKER_08: And the two-day pass, because it's a they're doing two shows.
- 5:13SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 5:13SPEAKER_08: And they're not repeating songs.
- 5:14SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 5:15SPEAKER_08: So you can get a two-day pass.
- 5:16SPEAKER_08: If you want to be in the nosebleeds, a two-day pass is like$170.
- 5:21SPEAKER_08: That's pretty good.
- 5:22SPEAKER_08: That's pretty darn good.
- 5:23SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 5:24SPEAKER_08: Now, the closer you get to the stage, the price goes.
- 5:27SPEAKER_08: I think the highest I saw was like$1,800.
- 5:30SPEAKER_06: That's still not.
- 5:31SPEAKER_08: But that's still for two days.
- 5:33SPEAKER_06: Yes.
- 5:33SPEAKER_08: That's not I that's not bad.
- 5:37SPEAKER_08: But am I gonna spend eighteen hundred dollars plus driving there?
- 5:41SPEAKER_08: Plus, hotel, food, merch.
- 5:44SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 5:45SPEAKER_08: You're gonna probably drop five grand easy.
- 5:48SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 5:49SPEAKER_08: Do I want to see Metallica again that bad?
- 5:52SPEAKER_08: No.
- 5:52SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 5:53SPEAKER_08: You've already seen them.
- 5:54SPEAKER_08: I've seen them.
- 5:54SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 5:54SPEAKER_08: And I saw them before they were the Metallica.
- 5:57SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 5:58SPEAKER_08: You know, I saw them, you know, as the black on the black album tour.
- 6:02SPEAKER_06: Yep.
- 6:02SPEAKER_08: So they were still pretty easy.
- 6:04SPEAKER_08: They were still pretty raw.
- 6:05SPEAKER_08: Yep.
- 6:06SPEAKER_08: There wasn't much of a stage show.
- 6:07SPEAKER_08: It was just them.
- 6:08SPEAKER_08: They got up, they played awesome music, and then they left.
- 6:11SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 6:11SPEAKER_08: They did do that thing where they didn't have an opening act and they had the like the the screens, you know, they just they would show up every once, you know, on the screen.
- 6:19SPEAKER_08: Hey, we're coming out.
- 6:22SPEAKER_08: So, you know, we were all like, yeah, you know, so you know, but I'm not gonna I'm not gonna drop three, four, five grand to go see Metallica again.
- 6:33SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 6:34SPEAKER_08: Because I can see them on YouTube.
- 6:36SPEAKER_08: Or on the many on the many music concert DVDs of them that I true.
- 6:42SPEAKER_06: It is a little different though.
- 6:43SPEAKER_08: I mean, it's I mean it's an experience.
- 6:46SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 6:46SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 6:47SPEAKER_06: I see I'm a sucker for live music.
- 6:49SPEAKER_08: I if I would love I'd love to see Taylor Swift open for Metallica.
- 6:53SPEAKER_08: Because I would love to see Metallica fans intermingle with Taylor Swift fans.
- 6:58SPEAKER_00: They would literally Which one would be the more rabid though?
- 7:01SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 7:02SPEAKER_00: Who would make the I'm pretty sure it I'm pretty sure it would be like Have you ever seen the movie Gettysburg?
- 7:10SPEAKER_00: Yes, I have.
- 7:12SPEAKER_08: That last Pickett's charge.
- 7:14SPEAKER_08: Yes.
- 7:14SPEAKER_06: That's basically what it would be like.
- 7:16SPEAKER_06: Yeah, and I think I don't know, Taylor Swi Swifties, Swifties might have the advantage.
- 7:20SPEAKER_08: I don't know.
- 7:20SPEAKER_08: They might have the numbers of advantage, but they don't have the uh raw intensity.
- 7:26SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 7:26SPEAKER_08: They have the intensity that it's Taylor Swift, but I'd be Metallica fans tend to be like uh Metallica rules.
- 7:33SPEAKER_08: We're gonna eat your children.
- 7:35SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 7:35SPEAKER_08: Kind of you know what I mean?
- 7:37SPEAKER_08: You know, so you know, especially the hardcore the ones that have you know been Metallica fans like since I was a Metallica fan.
- 7:44SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
- 7:44SPEAKER_08: The old school Metallica fans, yeah, we're like, we're gonna sacrifice you to something.
- 7:49SPEAKER_08: You know what I mean?
- 7:50SPEAKER_08: Don't get it in our way.
- 7:52SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 7:52SPEAKER_08: So I don't know.
- 7:53SPEAKER_08: I just I was thinking about that.
- 7:55SPEAKER_08: I was like, I I wish you know, wish we could fast forward like three months and just put a bunch of Metallica fans in with those T-sweat fans, because it would just be a bloodbath.
- 8:04SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 8:05SPEAKER_06: I don't know.
- 8:05SPEAKER_06: Well, let me tell you this, because you mentioned you just mentioned a hotel, like going to see Metallica getting a hotel.
- 8:10SPEAKER_06: So remember we were talking about because the first um the first syndicate gig is is in Milo this year.
- 8:15SPEAKER_06: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 8:16SPEAKER_06: Which is about 40 minutes or so away from Bangor.
- 8:18SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 8:18SPEAKER_06: And so it's a it's kind of a road gig for us.
- 8:20SPEAKER_06: Yes.
- 8:21SPEAKER_06: And so I was like, I don't like driving at night, because our show will get done at nine o'clock.
- 8:27SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 8:27SPEAKER_06: So I looked into getting a hotel because we talked about it.
- 8:30SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 8:30SPEAKER_06: It would be a good idea, a smart idea to get a hotel room.
- 8:33SPEAKER_06: Um so I went to I'm a member of um Marriott, I have Marriott Rewards.
- 8:41SPEAKER_06: Oh fancy.
- 8:41SPEAKER_06: Oh two past the ball.
- 8:43SPEAKER_06: So I so I uh I called the Marriott Hotel in in Bangor and I said, just curious, I was just looking for a price.
- 8:50SPEAKER_06: Just looking for a rate.
- 8:51SPEAKER_06: Yeah, if I if I wanted to book a room for for June 3rd that Saturday into that one night?

- 8:59SPEAKER_06: If I if if you could do a member rate, that would be awesome.
- 9:03SPEAKER_06: Okay.
- 9:06SPEAKER_06: Um we're looking at about$260.
- 9:13SPEAKER_06: I said, that's the member rate?
- 9:15SPEAKER_06: Let me see if I can let me see if I can do a little better for it.
- 9:19SPEAKER_08: $259.
- 9:20SPEAKER_06: Uh I can get that down to about$232.
- 9:26SPEAKER_06: $232 for one night.
- 9:28SPEAKER_06: Wow.
- 9:29SPEAKER_06: I said, I I guess I'll drive.

- 9:36SPEAKER_06: Uh do I?
- 9:38SPEAKER_06: Actually, no, I can't because uh I have to bring my speakers and I have to bring my lights.

- 10:12SPEAKER_00: There you are.

- 10:21SPEAKER_06: But driving home is gonna be a pain.
- 10:25SPEAKER_06: That's gonna be a pain.
- 10:26SPEAKER_06: If there was if there's any if there was any way I could get a hotel, I would I would do it.
- 10:31SPEAKER_06: So maybe I'll look into well my I told my wife this and she's like, does it have to be in Bangor?
- 10:36SPEAKER_06: I'm like, I don't think I want to stay in a hotel in Milo.
- 10:40SPEAKER_08: You and I had this discussion on the way back, and I was like, I'm not gonna say what I said there.

- 11:09SPEAKER_06: It's a I mean it's a possibility, but I have I didn't look at the prices of those just because I don't know that I want to stay there.
- 11:14SPEAKER_06: Right.

- 11:39SPEAKER_06: Um being a musician.
- 11:40SPEAKER_08: But if we did it for the money, we wouldn't be doing it.

- 12:15SPEAKER_06: Here's the thing.
- 12:17SPEAKER_06: I knew that I was gonna have a long time.
- 12:21SPEAKER_06: Did they kick you out?

- 16:24SPEAKER_06: Oh this is Blue Murder.
- 16:25SPEAKER_06: This is Blue Murder, okay, with John Sykes on vocal.
- 16:28SPEAKER_06: Okay.
- 16:28SPEAKER_06: He was the guitar player and songwriter for White Snake's um Um 87 album, and whatever it was before that was uh This was the second release from this album that was a hit.
- 17:05SPEAKER_06: Can't believe we've never heard this.
- 17:26SPEAKER_06: This was the first release, Valley of the Kings.
- 17:36SPEAKER_06: Sounds very late eighties, early 90s.
- 17:38SPEAKER_06: Oh yeah, well either.
- 17:55SPEAKER_06: Nope.
- 17:55SPEAKER_06: Okay.
- 17:56SPEAKER_06: Uh not a clue.
- 17:57SPEAKER_06: So uh John Sykes after Blue Murder, and he he was he was in Tigers at Pantang for a while as well.
- 18:03SPEAKER_06: Uh I think before Whitesnake.
- 18:06SPEAKER_06: But anyway, um he filled in as vocalist for Thin Lizzie for a number of years.
- 18:13SPEAKER_12: And we're gonna do a great song of those for your right now.

- 18:26SPEAKER_12: But if you listen to his voice, okay now now listen to Black Star Riders.
- 18:52SPEAKER_06: This is Ricky Warwick on both of them.
- 18:55SPEAKER_06: So I think he sounds a lot like John Sykes.
- 18:57SPEAKER_06: I thought it was the line at the first, but now that I think about it, it's John Sykes.
- 19:01SPEAKER_06: This is a long way to go for this explanation, but yeah, that's that's way closer.
- 19:07SPEAKER_06: Yeah, yeah.

- 22:46SPEAKER_06: So I got this, I got the Black Star Riders, and I got this one.
- 23:06SPEAKER_06: This is an intro you've never heard before.
- 23:09SPEAKER_06: You'll recognize it in here in two seconds.
- 23:20SPEAKER_07: Wow.

- 23:25SPEAKER_06: Nope, me either.
- 23:26SPEAKER_06: Wow.
- 23:27SPEAKER_06: So this is Simply Red, greatest hits.
- 23:31SPEAKER_06: Wow.
- 23:32SPEAKER_06: Uh you'd be surprised at the number of songs that Simply Red had that you recognize.
- 23:38SPEAKER_06: Oh, probably.
- 23:39SPEAKER_06: Um you know I'm terrible at names.
- 23:44SPEAKER_06: It's very um uh blue-eyed soul.
- 23:50SPEAKER_06: Well, it's it's yacht rock.
- 23:52SPEAKER_06: Yeah, basically.
- 23:53SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 23:58SPEAKER_00: I'm just waiting for Michael McDonald to show up.
- 24:01SPEAKER_00: Oh, you hear that?
- 24:04SPEAKER_00: I have a story about something like that.
- 24:06SPEAKER_09: I can lead up from what my ranks do.
- 24:11SPEAKER_09: I can't tell me pregnant to I remember this one.
- 24:14SPEAKER_06: Money's too tight to match.
- 24:16SPEAKER_06: Yep, right.
- 24:33SPEAKER_06: Remember this one.
- 24:33SPEAKER_06: Oh yeah.
- 24:34SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 24:35SPEAKER_08: Of course it's it's tainted by the uh um what was his face?
- 24:42SPEAKER_06: Oh, what was his face?
- 24:43SPEAKER_06: I don't know what you're talking about.
- 24:46SPEAKER_08: Didn't uh what's his face do this too?
- 24:49SPEAKER_06: I don't know who did this.
- 24:51SPEAKER_08: This is a cover.
- 24:52SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 24:53SPEAKER_06: This is a cover of an old Harold Melvin in the blue notes.
- 24:56SPEAKER_08: No, somebody else who else did this?
- 24:59SPEAKER_08: Oh, what's his name?
- 25:02SPEAKER_06: I don't I don't remember anybody doing this.
- 25:03SPEAKER_06: Really?
- 25:04SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 25:04SPEAKER_04: Oh you should understand.
- 25:12SPEAKER_04: Like I understand you.
- 25:14SPEAKER_06: Think about this greatest tits album.
- 25:17SPEAKER_06: I don't think this is the original.
- 25:19SPEAKER_06: I think he re-recorded them.
- 25:20SPEAKER_06: Really?
- 25:21SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 25:22SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 25:23SPEAKER_06: I can't be sure.
- 25:24SPEAKER_06: It probably says in the liner notes.
- 25:26SPEAKER_06: Oh sure.
- 25:26SPEAKER_08: I'm surprised you haven't read them yet.
- 25:27SPEAKER_06: I haven't read them yet.
- 25:34SPEAKER_06: Of course, there's this.
- 25:36SPEAKER_06: You ever heard this one?
- 25:37SPEAKER_06: Stars.
- 25:46SPEAKER_06: I don't know what it is about this kind of music.
- 25:48SPEAKER_08: It's Michael Bolt! That's the one I was trying to think of.
- 25:50SPEAKER_08: Oh no, he didn't do that.
- 25:51SPEAKER_08: Okay, wasn't he?
- 25:52SPEAKER_06: He did When a Man Loves a Woman.
- 25:54SPEAKER_08: I know he did that, but I thought he did that one too.
- 25:56SPEAKER_08: I don't think so.
- 25:57SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 25:59SPEAKER_04: Tell you the way I'm feeling anyone who ever wants to do.
- 26:05SPEAKER_06: No, I don't remember this one.
- 26:06SPEAKER_06: Remember this?
- 26:06SPEAKER_06: No.
- 26:06SPEAKER_06: Wait till you hear the chorus.
- 26:14SPEAKER_06: Simply Red is basically, well, well, it's just one guy.
- 26:17SPEAKER_06: No, it's not, actually.
- 26:18SPEAKER_06: They they the record label did that.
- 26:21SPEAKER_06: Um and the band really had bad feelings about it.
- 26:24SPEAKER_06: Which is why I think this is rec re-recorded.
- 26:28SPEAKER_06: Because I don't think it's the band.
- 26:31SPEAKER_06: Do you remember this now?
- 26:34SPEAKER_06: No?
- 26:35SPEAKER_06: Nope.
- 26:36SPEAKER_06: Not ringing any bells.
- 26:38SPEAKER_06: Oh.
- 26:38SPEAKER_06: And then this one's something got me started.
- 26:40SPEAKER_06: You ever heard this one?
- 26:42SPEAKER_06: I'll move on after this one.
- 26:44SPEAKER_06: Doesn't sound for my.
- 26:45SPEAKER_06: So anyway, Mick Hucknell is the redhead Irish guy, lead singer.
- 26:51SPEAKER_06: And the band, when they put out their album, they did the the record company made the cover and it was just Mick Hucknell.
- 27:00SPEAKER_06: It was called Simply Red, and they went by his red hair.
- 27:02SPEAKER_06: Simply Red.
- 27:04SPEAKER_06: You know?
- 27:05SPEAKER_06: And so the rest of the band were a little bit out of shape, which you would be.
- 27:09SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 27:10SPEAKER_06: Right?
- 27:10SPEAKER_06: And then, but they because they did it that way, it was a brand.
- 27:14SPEAKER_06: So for the next album, they had to do it that way again.
- 27:18SPEAKER_06: So it became McHucknell was Simply Red.
- 27:22SPEAKER_06: So I think that's why I think a lot of these the early songs on this greatest hits package, he re-recorded uh without the band, Simply Red.
- 27:33SPEAKER_06: I don't know that for sure, but that's what I would guess.
- 27:36SPEAKER_06: Okay.
- 27:38SPEAKER_06: So you don't remember this song?
- 27:39SPEAKER_06: No, no, no.
- 27:40SPEAKER_06: So it was a big hit for Simply Red.
- 27:42SPEAKER_06: So anyway, those are the three that I got.
- 27:45SPEAKER_06: Good choices, but uh, you know.
- 27:46SPEAKER_06: Not what you were looking for.
- 27:47SPEAKER_06: Not what I was looking for.
- 27:48SPEAKER_06: Not what I was looking for.
- 27:49SPEAKER_06: But that's okay.
- 27:50SPEAKER_06: Um it is what it is.
- 27:52SPEAKER_06: So uh that little that little um I had a story, and I think you've probably heard this before.
- 27:58SPEAKER_06: But uh Ultimate Classic Rock, uh, of course, you know, um they like to say, hey, remember when this happened?
- 28:05SPEAKER_06: Um I think you've heard this story, and if you haven't, I'm sorry I haven't told it to you.
- 28:10SPEAKER_06: But um Stevie Nicks was recording her song Stand Back.
- 28:15SPEAKER_07: Okay.
- 28:16SPEAKER_06: Do you remember do you remember this story about Prince?
- 28:19SPEAKER_06: No.
- 28:19SPEAKER_06: Oh, you don't?
- 28:20SPEAKER_06: No, well this is good.
- 28:21SPEAKER_06: Nope.
- 28:22SPEAKER_06: Okay.
- 28:23SPEAKER_06: So let me see if I can get some Stevie Nicks pulled up here because this is gonna be important.
- 28:28SPEAKER_06: So Stevie Nix had written a Do I have Stevie Nicks?
- 28:34SPEAKER_06: I know I have Stevie Nix.
- 28:36SPEAKER_06: Where's my Stevie Nix?
- 28:40SPEAKER_06: Apparently not in my iTunes, so that's okay.
- 28:42SPEAKER_06: So check by the Fleawood Mac.
- 28:45SPEAKER_06: Nope.
- 28:46SPEAKER_06: So she was uh r recording, uh she heard Prince's Little Red Corvette.
- 28:52SPEAKER_06: Little Red Corvette.
- 28:54SPEAKER_06: Which was a big hit at the time.
- 28:56SPEAKER_06: Uh and uh it was 1983, I guess.
- 29:00SPEAKER_06: Uh as the couple drove down to Santa Barbara for their honeymoon, Nick spent the rest of the night writing the song it inspired Stand Back, which was on her Wild Heart album.
- 29:08SPEAKER_06: So she said it's she was on her honeymoon?
- 29:10SPEAKER_06: She was uh uh she had Princess of the Big Yeah, right, yeah.
- 29:13SPEAKER_06: Who?
- 29:15SPEAKER_06: Oh, she was married she married ex-husband Kim Anderson.
- 29:18SPEAKER_06: Oh, okay.
- 29:19SPEAKER_06: I don't know how many husbands she's had, but anyway.
- 29:21SPEAKER_06: Hard to go.
- 29:22SPEAKER_06: Uh it just gave me an incredible idea, so I spent many hours that night writing a song about some kind of crazy argument, and it was to become one of the most important of my songs.
- 29:30SPEAKER_06: Uh she wrote this in her greatest hits album.
- 29:32SPEAKER_06: I've been doing this song for years.
- 29:33SPEAKER_06: Fleetwood Mac does it also, and I never get tired of it.
- 29:36SPEAKER_06: Standback has always been my favorite song on stage because when it starts, it has an energy that comes from somewhere unknown, and it seems to have no time, space.
- 29:44SPEAKER_06: Uh I never quite understood the sound, but I have never questioned it.
- 29:48SPEAKER_06: So she thought that the song sounded too much like Little Red Corvette.
- 29:54SPEAKER_06: Okay.
- 29:55SPEAKER_06: Um so she said that uh she she called him.
- 30:02SPEAKER_06: She didn't have to call him, but she said uh she called him once, and it was written uh borrowing Little Red Red Corvette Melody, told him of her inspiration, and asked if he would meet her at Sunset Sound in LA.
- 30:14SPEAKER_06: Twenty minutes later he was there.
- 30:16SPEAKER_06: Uh she says, I didn't have to call him and tell him that I kind of ripped off his song, but I did because I'm honest.
- 30:22SPEAKER_06: Um she played the song for him and asked if he hated it.
- 30:25SPEAKER_06: And he said no.
- 30:27SPEAKER_06: And walked over to the synthesizers that were set up and for about twenty five minutes it did something and then he left.
- 30:34SPEAKER_06: So you know the song.
- 30:37SPEAKER_06: Okay, so imagine the song without without this part that Prince put the Prince put in.
- 30:43SPEAKER_06: And I'll tell you exactly what part it is.
- 30:45SPEAKER_06: Uh I'm pretty sure I've told this story before, but so see if you hear little red corvette.
- 30:54SPEAKER_03: Little Red Corvette.
- 31:12SPEAKER_06: So Prince, being the genius that he is, heard this and was like, no, it's really good.
- 31:17SPEAKER_06: It's really good, it's missing something.
- 31:19SPEAKER_06: It needs something.
- 31:20SPEAKER_06: So this is go with me for a second.
- 31:25SPEAKER_06: So he goes into the studio.
- 31:32SPEAKER_06: She said for 25 minutes and then he left.
- 31:34SPEAKER_06: I don't even know if he said goodbye.
- 31:49SPEAKER_00: That's Prince.
- 31:53SPEAKER_06: That's what he added.
- 31:55SPEAKER_06: Imagine that song without it.
- 31:56SPEAKER_06: Yeah, it'd be kind of boring.
- 31:58SPEAKER_06: It would.
- 31:58SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 31:59SPEAKER_08: But he isn't he was a genius.
- 32:01SPEAKER_06: He was a genius.
- 32:02SPEAKER_06: Yeah, he was a genius.
- 32:03SPEAKER_08: I get it.
- 32:03SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 32:04SPEAKER_08: That's cool though.
- 32:05SPEAKER_08: Yeah, that is cool.
- 32:06SPEAKER_06: That reminded me of, you know, when we were listening to that song and you heard the boom.
- 32:08SPEAKER_00: Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
- 32:10SPEAKER_00: Where's Michael McDonald?
- 32:15SPEAKER_06: Um, did you watch any of the um The Foo Fighters had this big this big live thing?
- 32:21SPEAKER_06: Did you get tickets to that?
- 32:22SPEAKER_06: They had a live stream where they announced Josh Freeze.
- 32:27SPEAKER_08: No, I didn't I didn't I didn't even know they meant.
- 32:29SPEAKER_06: They had a live stream, they they announced Josh Freeze as the new drummer, and they played a bunch of new songs from their new album.
- 32:35SPEAKER_06: Oh, cool.
- 32:36SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 32:37SPEAKER_06: Um so that's what I was basically gonna get at was Josh Freeze, who's played with everybody from Guns and Roses, Sting, Nine Inch Nails, Devo, Weezer.
- 32:48SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 32:49SPEAKER_06: Um he's been a studio musician musician.
- 32:52SPEAKER_06: Um I was reading this article on Ultimate Classic Rock where he says uh he said he's known for no nonsense, heavy hit heavy hitting approach to playing.
- 33:03SPEAKER_06: His attitude matches that of Dave Girl and Hawkins.
- 33:06SPEAKER_06: I always say, half joking but serious too, that when little boys are daydreaming of cool sounding jobs when they grow up, that being a drummer is right up there alongside of an astronaut, baseball player, fireman.
- 33:17SPEAKER_06: Um he said he he had found an old drum kit in his musician dad's attic.
- 33:24SPEAKER_06: My dad played me most of the elementary rock and roll 101 beat, and I sat down and immediately played it.
- 33:29SPEAKER_06: Fell in love instantly, and then spent the next few years playing along to Van Halen, Devo, Police, and the and Queen Records before taking formal lessons.
- 33:37SPEAKER_06: Um he goes, he says, I always tell people, play with as many people as you can play with without burning all bridges or effing things up for yourself.
- 33:46SPEAKER_06: And in case his qualification for offering advice was in doubt, he noted, I've paid taxes every year since I was twelve from drumming income.
- 33:56SPEAKER_06: Other than a paper route I had for about six weeks when I was ten, this is the only job I've ever had.
- 34:02SPEAKER_06: Wow.
- 34:02SPEAKER_06: That's impressive.
- 34:03SPEAKER_06: That is impressive.

- 38:51SPEAKER_06: I don't know.
- 38:51SPEAKER_06: Would it sound better without singing?

- 38:57SPEAKER_06: It would be more boring.
- 38:58SPEAKER_06: It's deranged for orchestra though.
- 39:05SPEAKER_08: I think that's just Stuart Copeland's sense of humor.
- 39:08SPEAKER_06: Well no, there's an orchestra there.
- 39:10SPEAKER_06: I'm watching it.
- 39:11SPEAKER_08: I can hear it.

- 39:56SPEAKER_06: I'm not sure who it is.

- 40:08SPEAKER_08: But so, but I mean it's very sounds pretty good.
- 40:12SPEAKER_08: Yeah.

- 42:14SPEAKER_06: Um it's just very, very close to Zeppelin.

- 57:28SPEAKER_11: Right um so this album had or has uh this one which is a song about being um growing up in North Carolina this is Copper Line I just I I love James Taylor always have always will um there's a big part of my musical the fabric of my musical being was James Taylor he's one of your he's on your Mount Rushmore he is on my Mount Rushmore yes I would say I was wondering since it aged to down on couple lines couple feet so this was a hit from the album he let's see he probably had down on couple I should say I shouldn't say it was a hit.
- 58:25SPEAKER_06: He released it I'm not sure how well it did also released this one I've gotta stop thinking about that so there are a couple of songs on here that I mean I I would have kept the album anyway because it's James Taylor but you know a lot of it is filler um I still love it right but there's a couple of songs on here one of the songs I did with my high school choir this year this one here let us turn our thoughts today to Martin Luther King and recognize that there are ties between us all men and women living on the earth ties of hope and love sister and brotherhood that we are just say this was an odd song to do.
- 1:00:19SPEAKER_06: Because the timing of it is like as far as like the the musical timing of it.
- 1:00:26SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 1:00:26SPEAKER_10: But it even gets odder word more more odd and the room lies ahead we are bound and we are bound but we did it pretty successfully cool kids did a good job.
- 1:00:45SPEAKER_06: There is a feeling like the clenching of a fist there is a hunger in the center of the chest there is a passage through the darkness and the list until the body sleeps the heart will never rest a new song but then it goes back to the beginning part yeah yeah yeah okay so and then um he does so he does an old folk song on this The Water is wine are you familiar with the water is wine yep does a great version of it with uh with uh Marco Connor on on violin okay great uh he does a Sam Cook cover took my baby to the hop last night what to my surprise when we got there she hit me with the news right between the eye she said she couldn't do the cha cha cha cha cha obviously puts his own stamp on it oh yes so the only other one I'm gonna play on this I mean there's a lot of other good songs on here but the beginning because one of the reasons I love James Taylor is his guitar play.
- 1:02:11SPEAKER_06: Right and it's really kind of influenced my playing um he and Martin offler I love playing with my fingers make a joke about that if you want well I was gonna say duh I mean what else are you playing the guitar with?
- 1:02:29SPEAKER_06: But you know I'm just gonna let it I'm gonna let that one finger picking I guess is what you I play the guitar with my fingers really good for you so there's a song on here called Like Everyone She Knows which is a beautiful ballad.
- 1:02:45SPEAKER_06: I'm not gonna play the whole song but I do want to play you the whole intro because he does these little guitar things as exercises.
- 1:02:53SPEAKER_06: He just writes these little instrumentals as exercises and this one is the instrumental at the beginning of Like Everyone She Kings is textbook James Taylor and I love it awesome I like that that's amazing but I you know like personally this is where the song yeah I really don't need anything besides James Taylor and his guitar anyway I know I mean if that's if that's all he ever did I'd be perfectly fine with him you know what I mean I totally agree.
- 1:04:21SPEAKER_06: He did put out an an album a live album called One Man Band which is just him and a guitar and does he play it with his fingers we were ring around the rosy children and they were circles around so he has a piano player playing with him so yeah but you're right though if I just had James Taylor and his guitar so so that like everyone she knows that little intro that you heard watch this is attitude now it is so I wrote a little a little acoustic intro um that was info influenced by that.
- 1:05:07SPEAKER_06: I'm gonna play it for you I don't have a name for I don't have a name for it.
- 1:05:10SPEAKER_06: But you just tell me what you think.
- 1:05:11SPEAKER_06: And it's in it's really short it's not as long as and and elaborate as uh James Taylor's but it was something like and it's uh it's what what I do basically kind of just uh warm up.
- 1:05:21SPEAKER_06: Sure it burped up explain it.
- 1:06:21SPEAKER_06: I can't even this is my this is a new uh newly acquired like a pull-off there well see these these strings are a little uh either closer together than my tailor but but I'm supposed to and that's the thing it's just kind of a circular yeah it just goes around I think I've heard you do that from time to time yeah and this is supposed to go no that's not right no anyway it's something like that yeah but that was inspired by like everyone she knows and you don't have a name for it I don't have a name for it I've heard you I've heard you noodle that yeah it sounds better on my Taylor that's what that's an old everything sounds better on my tailor that's my that's my old Yamaha um so yeah James Taylor is a big uh big influence on my stuff it is so he is anyway uh that's it that my friends is episode 151 151 151 and James Taylor uh new moonshine is the album of the week so noise noise what do we say we're gonna call it saxomophones saxophones and floats and floats f all f L O T E Sure if that's how you spell floats yes well or was it floats and saxophones faxamophones and floats which is funnier floats and saxomophones okay I like that one yeah I like that one's the one we're going with floats and saxomophones floats and saxomophones all right hey what do you play in the school beta float it's a coke float I play a taxamophone I play a saxomophone all right time to get this kid into out of public education what is wrong with you all right so until uh next week I'm O'Brien I'm still Doug Bye everybody everybody the O'Brien and Doug podcast is brought to you in part by MosierMultimedia.com KH Music in Prescott Maine the Ridge Runner in Westfield Maine and my cousin make sure to follow O'Brien and Doug on Facebook Instagram and YouTube drop your crayons and pick up your phone and email us anytime at O'Brienandug at gmail.com scribble scribble it's a horsey I don't know what all this trouble is about but I'm sure it must be your fault
