Excited to have you here, Dave.
I actually bought your album and
15
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,320
thanks.
And then I bought your single.
16
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,880
I, I bought your single The Lord
or the Devil Man, because I like
17
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,360
the title of the song, right?
And it didn't let me down, man.
18
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,600
Nice fucking good song, brother
love.
19
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,840
Exactly.
Sound I I really like your sound
20
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,920
a lot.
That's right up my style as far
21
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,320
as what I like to play lead
around, just that kind of vibe
22
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:41,840
as far as the rhythm goes.
And I like that Southern rock
23
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,280
slash country slash rocks, you
know, just right, taking every
24
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,480
style and throwing it in in a
melting pot.
25
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,960
That's that's kind of where I
feel you're going in that
26
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,560
direction.
That's where I was aiming,
27
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,280
absolutely.
I dig it man, Thanks and for me,
28
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,880
thanks for coming on.
Nice to meet.
29
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,920
You, yeah.
Nice to meet you guys too, both
30
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:03,240
of you.
Yeah, I let Mike know last night
31
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,480
you were coming on, so he wasn't
going to be completely, you
32
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,480
know, caught off guard.
They were having that right,
33
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,440
having a a charting musician on.
So that's cool, man.
34
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,880
So what's on?
What's on Dave's docket?
35
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,000
Give the give our listeners a
little, I don't know, 3060
36
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,440
second sound bite of who you
are, what you're doing, where
37
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,000
you're going, what's your where
your shows out all the kind of
38
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,880
jazz how they can find you.
And then we'll just, you know,
39
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:24,720
you dive right in, man.
Right on.
40
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,840
Well, so I just kind of signed a
contract with a company called
41
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,240
Bella Cheetah and they a
management company and he's got
42
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,080
a fleet of tour buses and, and
all of the contacts in the
43
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,800
world.
So he can put me on pretty major
44
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,880
tours.
And we're looking forward to
45
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,680
that.
We're kind of trying to get some
46
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,080
new music out and re re record
some of the old stuff because
47
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:50,240
it's tied up with with some
other publishing stuff and and
48
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,720
we want to kind of be free of
all that.
49
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,720
And so there will be an album
coming out again here real like
50
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,480
in the next year sometime.
But right now we're just kind of
51
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,840
releasing a few singles and as
soon as all that's in place,
52
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,920
he's going to be putting us on
radio and and sending us out to
53
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,840
all over the states.
And we're looking forward to it
54
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,880

So how long, how long you been
been making music man?
90
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:57,480
Oh, let's see, 2526 years,
something like that.
91
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,080
You know, I'm as far as like
from when I was learning how to
92
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,440
play guitar and, and learning
how to write songs and all that
93
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,000
kind of stuff and joining a
band.
94
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,240
And that was like right around
the Millennium, the Millennium
95
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,120
change.
So yeah, gosh, I guess that.
96
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,840
'D be changed everything, man.
2025 years.
97
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:22,240
Holy holy hell. 25 years, yeah.
Son of a bitch I'm getting old,
98
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,800
man.
Yeah, we feel your pain,
99
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:26,200
brother.
We.
100
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,880
Feel your pain.
Yeah, that was cool.
101
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,280
It was pretty cool getting into
that first band and being being
102
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:38,200
able to go out and play like the
Millennium New Year's Eve show,
103
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,480
that was pretty awesome.
Everybody was still a little
104
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,400
afraid of Y2K, you know?
And the computer's crashing, and
105
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,320
at midnight the show was going
to shut down because
106
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:51,320
everything's going to fall off
the face of the planet, right?
107
00:05:51,840 --> 00:05:53,400
But we just kept on rocking, you
know, there.
108
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,160
You go now.
Is it just you doing solo stuff?
109
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,360
Because I noticed on YouTube
it's Dave Noodle than Dave
110
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,800
Noodle Band.
Right.
111
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,200
Yeah, well, you.
Got 2 separate things.
112
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:08,440
Dave Nudo Band is what it
started out with and when when I
113
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,200
made my first record called
County Line and we didn't have.
114
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,560
That's the one I just bought.
Yeah, And thank you.
115
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,120
By the way, we didn't have a
name.
116
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,280
You're welcome.
Thank you.
117
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,440
We didn't have a name.
Is.
118
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,320
That the wife is that the wife
is that the wife.
119
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,160
Get the wife in the picture.
Man.
120
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,320
OK, I'll get her in the picture
when she comes back.
121
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:27,680
Yeah.
Come on, man.
122
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,160
So, you know, so.
So yeah, it we didn't have a
123
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,680
name when we went and recorded
that album for the band.
124
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,640
It was just me and my songs and
a couple of friends that that
125
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,400
were helping me put the tracks
down.
126
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,440
And and the producer was like,
well, what's the name of the
127
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,480
band?
Because he wanted to save the
128
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,720
first song that we recorded.
And I'm like, I don't have a
129
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,080
name for the band.
And, and Herb, the guitar
130
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:57,000
players like Dave Noodle band.
I'm like, OK, that'll work that
131
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,360
way, you know, because I write
all these songs all these years
132
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,360
and join other bands with these
songs and I feel like I got to
133
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,600
leave them on the on the shelf
as soon as that band breaks up.
134
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,040
And, well, if I don't name it
some band name and, and take
135
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,560
complete charge of, of where the
direction goes, the band doesn't
136
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,960
break up unless I just quit, you
know, and I can keep moving
137
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,520
forward with all of the momentum
that I build over the years.
138
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,440
So I thought that was a pretty,
pretty good move going from a
139
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:27,160
band band name kind of a thing
to just, you know, my name.
140
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,760
Yeah.
So that's how that went about
141
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,480
anyway.
So we've been moving more
142
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,920
towards just cutting off band
and calling it Dave Nudo, you
143
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,920
know, cuz it's not Luke Combs
band, it's not Chris Stapleton
144
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,280
band.
It's the artist and the
145
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,720
songwriter.
And then they got their their
146
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,600
guys to back them up and, and
sometimes you know who they are
147
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,800
and sometimes you don't.
We've always been kind of pretty
148
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,280
good about making sure everybody
knows who's in the band.
149
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,680
But once again, if, if the
guitar player quits or the
150
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:05,360
drummer changes or whatever,
that no, nothing gets disrupted,
151
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,040
disrupted this way.
So and I like it.
152
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,240
So you're the primary songwriter
in the band?
153
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,240
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've, I've Co write with a few
154
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,680
people, but I haven't really Co
written with anybody in the
155
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,320
band.
That might change in the future.
156
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,320
We're we're working on some,
some ideas and stuff like that.
157
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,520
And, but, and there's always
been a collaboration as far as
158
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,480
how the show goes.
But so to answer your original
159
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,640
question, yeah, I do a lot of
solo shows.
160
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,360
It's, it's a great way to get my
face and my brand out there
161
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:40,400
without having to try to afford
all the guys and, and pay
162
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,120
everybody and, and that kind of
stuff.
163
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,280
And I can pay my bills pretty
good that way, doing solo shows
164
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,680
in smaller venues and, and, and
some bigger venues.
165
00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:54,800
I'll open for guys coming into
town sometimes at the like the
166
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,560
Knitting Factory or whatever.
In fact, I opened up for Ned
167
00:08:57,560 --> 00:08:58,760
Ledoux there.
Thank you.
168
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,120
These guys wanted to say hi to
you.
169
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,560
They won't be able to hear.
You won't be able to hear them,
170
00:09:02,560 --> 00:09:04,760
but you can wave.
This is my lovely bride.
171
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,040
Her name is Celeste.
That's Chris and Mike.
172
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:10,680
Nice and last.
Nice and last.
173
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:12,680
That was quick, man.
She moved in and out.
174
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,920
Short and sweet.
Well, she didn't have
175
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:16,640
headphones.
Woo.
176
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,840
My wife, my wife just comes in
the house and then goes away.
177
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,480
It's like.
We get them out same amount of
178
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,440
time every.
Every now and then she'll come
179
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,600
pop, pop her head up right here
and that's about it.
180
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:31,160
It's like.
Alright, thanks.
181
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,040
In and out.
Right on.
182
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,640
Yeah, exactly.
That's what she said.
183
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,760
You're welcome.
Yeah, No.
184
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:47,800
Well, go ahead, Mike.
I got a musician here.
185
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,440
Fire away, man.
Fire away.
186
00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:56,000
Well, that's the reason I wanted
to know why you or not, why I
187
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,280
wanted to know if you were the
primary songwriter, because
188
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,720
Chris and I would come at it
from a completely different
189
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,000
perspective.
For 30 years, on and off, he's
190
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,200
been my lyricist and I've been
his musician, so.
191
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,920
Oh cool.
You know, we, we count on each
192
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,160
other because he doesn't play an
instrument and I don't write
193
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,760
lyrics.
Oh, right.
194
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,480
A lot of people would find it
fascinating that I don't have a
195
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:21,440
lot to say, but I've never been
able to.
196
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,840
I've never been able to put it
into format.
197
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:29,640
So what would you describe your
process as far as sitting down
198
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,200
and writing a song?
Do you have a process or does it
199
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,280
change for each individual song?
Do you write the music first
200
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,840
sometimes, the lyric first
sometimes or?
201
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,680
Yeah, about it.
Yeah, that.
202
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,480
I mean, it does.
It varies with the song.
203
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,720
A lot of times this is the way
it goes.
204
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,640
I'll be sitting there with this
idea in my hell here of praise,
205
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,080
right?
And, and there will be a melody
206
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,160
with it.
And if there ain't one, I'll
207
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,960
have one in moments and then
just kind of go from there.
208
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,880
Sometimes I start with a a
really great chorus idea.
209
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,800
I've got this whole piece that I
would consider a chorus of a
210
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,240
song.
And then now I got.
211
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,880
Now I got to figure out how not
to mess that thing up with a
212
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,160
bunch of too wordy averses and
that.
213
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,280
Kind of stuff.
So I say the same thing.
214
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,040
How do we not practice?
That's exactly right.
215
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,720
Yeah.
So and and then the other way it
216
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,160
a lot of times I'll just sit
down with some idea come to my
217
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,240
mind and I write it down and
then or use my phone anymore,
218
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,960
but but get that line down and
then just, well, what's the next
219
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,960
line?
And it starts at the beginning
220
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,560
and I write it till the end of
the song and and then I've got a
221
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:36,280
melody in my mind, probably with
everything on there.
222
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,320
And then I got to figure out,
you know, what chords on the
223
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,040
guitar to play with it so I can
sing it and accompany myself and
224
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,680
give the guys a demo and that
sort of thing.
225
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,280
Other times I'm just, I got this
cool little thing I'm strumming
226
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,480
along and you know, a line pops
into my head while I'm doing
227
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,680
that and, and so I move forward
that way.
228
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,280
It, it really does vary.
But mostly, I'd say just coming
229
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,320
up with words that I wanted to
elaborate on, you know?
230
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,960
I guess that was my question
without I didn't form formulate
231
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,560
the question very good.
Would you consider yourself a
232
00:12:11,560 --> 00:12:13,840
lyricist first or a musician
first?
233
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:17,640
Probably a lyricist, I'd say.
I mean.
234
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:24,680
I think he would tell you, I
think he would tell you that we
235
00:12:24,680 --> 00:12:27,440
have the similar approach in
that he brings me a melody
236
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,320
sometimes and there's other
times I will be playing
237
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,760
something that inspires him to
either think of something he
238
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,680
wrote before or write something
new.
239
00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:40,120
So I guess I was hearing that
you consider yourself a lyricist
240
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,200
first.
That was my.
241
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,160
I would question, I would say
first, I'm a lyricist, but I'm
242
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,720
also a musician and I've, I've,
you know, sat in my little dinky
243
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,200
studio and and created all, you
know, the whole song, of course,
244
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,560
have to use a drum machine.
I am not a drummer.
245
00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:01,240
I can't, I can do this.
But if I have my feet into it,
246
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,240
it's gone.
Me either.
247
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,160
I'm gonna hold a beat for about
20 seconds before it all goes
248
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,800
sideways.
I suppose if.
249
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,320
I We all have that in common, I
think.
250
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:12,840
Right.
Good.
251
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,400
I'm in good company.
See, MM and I have yeah, Mike
252
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,200
and I have unique, the unique, I
don't know if it's ability, but
253
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,760
but I can write.
I can write a set of lyrics like
254
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,920
I wrote one of the last songs
and I use my phone too.
255
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,520
Now that's the beautiful thing
about Notes on on an Apple
256
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,240
phone.
Tell your phone price.
257
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,040
You can or you can just send it
right exactly.
258
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:36,800
So then so I can send him a song
of just the lyrics and he can he
259
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,400
can tell right away what I was
thinking from an emotional
260
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,880
standpoint, if it needs to be
hard driven, angry, or if it's,
261
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,080
you know, if it's, I don't
really write, you know, happy.
262
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,320
Hey, hey, hey, I write about
life and shit.
263
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,760
So you know, there are there are
there are happy things in life.
264
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,880
But that's the cool thing about
our relationship is I can just
265
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,160
give him a song and then and
I'll come back the next day
266
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,320
after, you know, one practice
here, check this out and come
267
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,280
back the next day.
And he's so check it out, check
268
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,040
out this riff.
And I'm like, holy shit, that
269
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,120
matches it perfectly.
So it's that kind of a cool
270
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,760
thing that's like both our left
brains just merge into one.
271
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,280
And it just works not to.
Interrupt you.
272
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,840
But the crazy thing about that,
Dave, is I never considered that
273
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,880
a gift until he put it into
words.
274
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,000
It's like how many people can
just look at a sheet of paper
275
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,280
and then say, OK, this is what I
think he's feeling musically,
276
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,040
right?
This is the message he wants to
277
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,520
convey.
I guess it is a pretty
278
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,520
fascinating gift because he
could have been thinking, hey, I
279
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,640
wanted that to be like a
melodic, beautiful, romantic.
280
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,680
What?
However, you want to describe it
281
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:44,320
in words and you turned it into
hellscape, right?
282
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,000
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
That's a hell of a gift, really.
283
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,560
I mean, and just being able to
read words and and figure out
284
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,320
what kind of a mood that's, I
mean, sometimes you can get it
285
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,360
because of the way that the
words are formed.
286
00:14:58,360 --> 00:14:59,960
I mean, you're talking about sad
shit.
287
00:14:59,960 --> 00:15:03,480
It's a sad song.
So but being able to convey that
288
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,200
musically is really where the
gift is in my opinion.
289
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,720
And I'm not even sure I've got
that gift.
290
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,840
Sometimes I get it right.
But but, but you know, guys like
291
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,840
you, that's a really impressive,
impressive deal.
292
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,920
The song I heard from you, you
definitely know how to convey
293
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,680
emotion because I was feeling
everything you were trying to
294
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,560
get across, just even on that
little speaker through a
295
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,080
microphone, through my.
Headphones I get.
296
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,200
It man, and that's that's a
gift.
297
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,160
So if you want to know if you're
being successful in that
298
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,360
department, I would say
resoundingly, yes.
299
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,200
Oh well, thank you very much,
Wilson.
300
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,560
Some of those tracks were were
done by other people, so I may
301
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,840
not have had my hands in in
making the real mood of the
302
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,440
music come alive with the
lyrics, you know what I mean?
303
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,800
But.
But you, right.
304
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,480
But you, you still wrote this
song, which is right here.
305
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,320
And you still, you know, you
still perform it.
306
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,720
Oh yeah.
Go man, fucking hey brother.
307
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,000
The Lord or the.
I'm telling you dude, this is
308
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,360
the first.
This is the first one.
309
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,600
This is the first one I
downloaded from you man.
310
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,960
I dig it.
Everybody's looking for
311
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:16,440
something good for something
bad, even though they shoot a
312
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,040
little bit of heaven right here
on earth, a little hell.
313
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:26,320
If that's what works, you can
look in your Sunday hymns.
314
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:31,760
I ride it on the back of the
road or call my old.
315
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,560
Hell yeah.
Yeah, right.
316
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,320
Lyrically dude, that's a bad ass
man.
317
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,760
Thank you.
Yeah, That whole song idea came
318
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,600
to me at like 3:00 in the
morning one night when I was up
319
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,080
still.
Probably should have been in
320
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,000
bed.
That was a great.
321
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,240
The idea behind that song was
like who you're like, what
322
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,640
everybody's got, they're
following something, you know,
323
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,720
you're either reading a magazine
or following little memes on
324
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,080
Facebook, learning how to live
your life based off of what
325
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,359
other people kind of push your
direction off TV commercials and
326
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,000
that shit.
Everybody needs some kind of
327
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,480
pill to make them skinnier, to
make them, you know, eat some
328
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:15,480
kind of whatever to, to bulk up,
you know, and, or mental health
329
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,280
and all that stuff.
So everybody needs some pill to
330
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,040
swallow, right, and some path to
follow.
331
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,960
And so I, I just thought it was
kind of a, it's more of a
332
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,600
concept song than anything.
But yeah, that that kind of made
333
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,920
a lot of sense.
So I tried to not mess up that
334
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,560
chorus with any crappy verses.
Now it's like, dude, I've
335
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,960
listened, I probably listened to
it 5 or 6 times before Mike came
336
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,200
on and it was, it was in the
middle of it when Mike came on.
337
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,760
Because that's the thing with
me, like I'm because I'm a
338
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,680
vocalist and a lyricist first
and foremost.
339
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,280
The first thing I attach myself
to, I look at the song name,
340
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,640
right?
So I was looking at, I was
341
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,360
looking at all your singles.
I'm like, I wonder which one is
342
00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:54,440
going to kind of catch me
because our conversation
343
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,800
yesterday was like, OK, I'm
excited to, you know, to pull up
344
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,040
some music from him.
And just the name of the song is
345
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,160
what drew me to it.
It went on me to right so.
346
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,800
That one right away, too.
Yeah.
347
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,960
So then when I listen, I was
happy when I listened to it
348
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,600
because you just, you never
know.
349
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,080
I mean, there's, there's and you
can probably, I mean, Mike and I
350
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,360
can agree.
We, we're all musicians.
351
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:15,480
So we agree to this.
You can put 12 songs out, right?
352
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,760
And and and you all think
they're badass, but in the in
353
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,120
the in the real world, you're
going to have maybe four or five
354
00:18:20,120 --> 00:18:22,480
that stand out if you're lucky,
Right, Right.
355
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,040
Because you have to breakthrough
all the barriers with the
356
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,240
people, which is why so many
artists now are just singles
357
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,320
after singles after singles,
because you just, you're trying
358
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,000
to get that niche and then, you
know, yeah, you know, get your
359
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,320
million views to make your
$10,000 Woo, you know.
360
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:41,120
But it's, it's I so my, my first
thing how you open my door and
361
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:44,080
my brain is, is the song title
and then the lyrics.
362
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,360
So as soon as, like I said, I
saw the song title, I listen to
363
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:48,800
it and I was like, fuck, that's
good, man.
364
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,280
So I listen to it again and
again and again.
365
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,360
And it's just, it's cool.
It's got a catch.
366
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:55,520
It's got a hook.
It, it's, it's, it's, it's not
367
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,480
super heavy, but it's not super
country twangy, you know?
368
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,520
So it's, I dug it, man.
It's kind of like we talked
369
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:02,800
about yesterday.
It's kind of the middle of the
370
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,840
road.
You can kind of, I could hear
371
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,240
that.
I could hear that play it on a
372
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,800
multiple of of different
stations because of of how you
373
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,160
created it and produced it.
It's not just stuck in a box.
374
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,480
How perfectly would that song
fit in a movie?
375
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,000
Yeah.
Oh, I think.
376
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,240
So, you know, just a scene where
a guy's, like, blazing down a
377
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:26,360
desert highway or something,
running away from whatever he's
378
00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:27,880
running.
I mean, I can see it in my head.
379
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,640
And here's what I'm listening to
when I hear something for the
380
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,160
first time.
Chris is listening to the
381
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:36,160
lyrics, the phrasing, your
melody I'm listening to.
382
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:41,160
Did you choose the right tempo?
How does the chord structure fit
383
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,200
with the message you're trying
to get across that opening?
384
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,520
Dave is out.
I get, I'm I, I got goosebumps
385
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,240
thinking about the way that song
started.
386
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,440
You couldn't have picked a more
perfect opening to start to
387
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,320
convey that message, in my
opinion.
388
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,400
Those are the things I'm
listening for.
389
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,320
Where did you record that at?
They deserve some kudos too.
390
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,640
Yeah, those sounds amazing.
So, so I I was hooked up with
391
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:08,000
the producer.
His name was Chaz Childers.
392
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:13,760
He's since passed, but but
Eminent music Group and and it
393
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,040
was an independent label and and
he had access to, you know,
394
00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:21,000
Nashville's and it was a
requirement to use if you're
395
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,520
going to put music out through
them.
396
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,520
The session players from, you
know, union session players.
397
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,280
So and I'm not sure about the
politics behind that, but what I
398
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,560
do know is you come back and
they've got excellent tracks and
399
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,960
they're really good about doing
the things that we were just
400
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,760
talking about.
And so anything that says Dave
401
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,440
Nudo as the artist was done that
way.
402
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:52,160
Anything that was done as Debuto
Band was with me and my friends
403
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,280
that I know locally.
So, but but anyway, yeah, so
404
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,600
those guys, they have got it
down on lock.
405
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,600
You can walk into a room.
I walked into a room with a guy
406
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:07,000
named John Connelly, Bobby
Terry, Mike Real Haas, and Dave
407
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:12,520
Francis and Kenny Royster at the
helm, the producer, and I'm
408
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,640
drawing a blank on the drummer's
name, but I showed them my
409
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,440
little demo with my little
acoustic guitar and some
410
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,960
three-part harmony multitracked,
you know, all done by me.
411
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,320
And it's this boring little
version of the song.
412
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:30,280
And in 5 minutes we're done
listening to my version done
413
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:34,920
talking about the direction of
the song and we're in isolation
414
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,200
booths.
And in 10 minutes after that,
415
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,160
the meat and potatoes of the
song is done with the, the
416
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,640
intro, you know, all that we
have left is some like extra
417
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,520
keyboard parts or extra guitar
lick, you know, solos and that
418
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,160
kind of stuff.
And then I would go back and do
419
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,080
the vocals.
But in 10 minutes, those guys
420
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,560
had the meat and potatoes done.
And in one hour this song is
421
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,840
complete.
All that's left is me to do my
422
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:06,000
vocals on it And, and for, for
the guy to, you know, produce
423
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,240
the song and mix it and master
it and all that stuff.
424
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,720
It's incredible.
It was, it was like, why haven't
425
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,960
we been doing it like this all
the time instead of spending all
426
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,880
day working on one guitar track,
you know, incredible.
427
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,000
Well, you recorded in Nashville
as well, Chris.
428
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,640
Did you have the same kind of
experience?
429
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,640
We we didn't have when we do our
Nashville recording, we didn't
430
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,240
have studio musicians.
We had our own stuff.
431
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,400
Well, I'm just talking like the
studio experience.
432
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,280
The studio is, yeah,
professionalism.
433
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,320
The first one we did, we're at
Dolly Parton Studio Gravity, and
434
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,520
that was cool because the
there's a hallway between the
435
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,560
sound booth and then where the
band plays records live and then
436
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,720
the vocal booth.
So as you're walking down that
437
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,160
hallway, the wall is filled both
sides with artists who've been
438
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:52,640
there and signed it and dated
it.
439
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,280
So obviously did that Dolly
Parton was in the building.
440
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,120
We heard her.
We didn't actually go see her or
441
00:22:58,120 --> 00:22:59,600
anything, but that was kind of
cool.
442
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,160
The second one we were and the,
the cool story about that is, is
443
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,640
Tony Migliori was the producer
and he plays piano on Bye Bye,
444
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,480
Miss American Pie.
But we went in the band set up
445
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,880
everything they started.
He said, oh, we're going to
446
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,720
record just kind of get some
levels of stuff.
447
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,920
Well, 12 hours later, we we laid
out 12.
448
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:22,600
We laid out four songs.
And by the beginning of the
449
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,040
fourth song, we only had a break
for lunch.
450
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,480
It was like an hour.
So the beginning of the fourth
451
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,080
song, he's like, all right, once
you wrap this up, we're done
452
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,520
with these four songs and we're
all kind of like, what?
453
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,120
And he's like, I've been
recording this whole thing.
454
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:34,280
So he recorded those four songs
completely live.
455
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:39,960
So I, I sang legitimately, you
know, 12 hours for the most part
456
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,160
that day, which was just
insanity.
457
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,600
And I was in vocal shape to do
it, but I didn't, I, we didn't
458
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:46,800
go in.
That was a cool thing about him.
459
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,680
We wouldn't go in thinking we're
going to bust out four songs
460
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,880
today.
It, it really was just kind of a
461
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,760
weird little dynamic because
we've never been in, in
462
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,400
Nashville, never been in that
kind of studio.
463
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:02,120
This was the last band I was in
and so it was unique in that
464
00:24:02,120 --> 00:24:04,280
fact effect.
And the second one we're at was
465
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:10,360
in Brentwood, Brentwood,
Brentwood, TN with it was, I
466
00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:13,800
want to say George Strait and
Alan Jackson's studio or, or
467
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,560
something to that effect.
I forget.
468
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,720
The Chelsea, Chelsea Music group
was in in Brentwood, TN.
469
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,320
So that was kind of cool.
We had really good interaction
470
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,960
with with the the engineers,
sound engineers and stuff.
471
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,120
They were skipping.
Oh shit, Stacey, I think her
472
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:34,440
name was super nice, super nice
couple.
473
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,120
They had me write a couple
different lyrics and they
474
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:42,000
recorded them trying to sell
them out, you know, to other
475
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,160
people and other bands stuff,
you know, that never came of it,
476
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,400
but it's still cool to have the
opportunity.
477
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,880
So it is kind of cool to kind of
walk into this really, you know,
478
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,000
intrinsic.
I know that's, that's not the
479
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,520
right word, but this really, I
don't know, the vibe is there
480
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,240
and it's and everybody that,
especially Dolly studio, right,
481
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,840
Everybody that walk through that
studio and everybody that
482
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,360
recorded there and you can just
kind of feel that aura and it's
483
00:25:01,360 --> 00:25:04,160
just, you know, it's not, it's,
you know what I mean?
484
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,920
It's kind of dark lit, but it's,
it's light enough, but it's dark
485
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,040
enough and it has an atmosphere.
And I'm at the end of the I'm at
486
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,280
the end in my vocal booth and
the band's there and then Tony's
487
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,280
all the way down to the hallway.
But it was it's, it's just
488
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:17,480
blended.
It was kind of cool.
489
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,560
It's like even though you were
separated by glass, you were
490
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,920
still, you still have the energy
and vibe that you needed, you
491
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,320
know, to feed off each other to
create tracks and stuff.
492
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,360
And even though, and there's a
funny story, we have a song
493
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:31,360
called the empty man that they
kept fucking up this part.
494
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,560
I hold that a high note for for
a period of time.
495
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,280
And every time they went to that
transition, they would they
496
00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:39,320
somebody would fuck it up the
guitar fucking up, they
497
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,000
whatever.
And so I, I burned the
498
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,960
microphone at the beginning of
the next take.
499
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,880
I'm like, stop fucking around
and get it right, man.
500
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,720
That made it that made it
through the entire editing
501
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,880
process, like the whole way.
So we're doing a radio, we're
502
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,560
doing a radio interview and the
guys we're talking and the guys
503
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,000
like, OK, what, what do you have
for us today?
504
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,560
Well, we're going to have we're
going to play empty man.
505
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,240
This is what it's about.
And they hit the button, man,
506
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,280
and there's a little bit of
silence and you all, you hear
507
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,800
dead silence in the studio.
Stop fucking around and get it
508
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,200
right, man.
And I laugh and everybody, all
509
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,800
the all the radio person are
like.
510
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:15,960
Watch.
But they by the time they
511
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,640
watered it, the music started so
they couldn't stop it.
512
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,000
So yeah, so and I totally forgot
that was there and I forgot to
513
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,840
say, hey, buffer the 1st 10
seconds because I dropped the F
514
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,200
bomb, you know?
Well, something you just said,
515
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,680
Chris, I've built 2 recording
studios.
516
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,880
Dave and I butted heads with one
of the guys that I was working
517
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,440
with because he was very
analytical, right?
518
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,920
He understood that you had to
have the right gear, the right
519
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,320
cabling, blah, blah, blah,
right?
520
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:47,280
Everything hardware wise and
software wise had to be just so.
521
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,800
But he didn't understand that
you had to create a vibe, right?
522
00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:53,400
You can't.
You can't ask a bunch of
523
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,480
musicians to come in an office
complex with fluorescent
524
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,160
lighting and feel inspired, no.
How important is it when you go
525
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,480
in a studio to feel comfortable
and create?
526
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,520
What does it take for you to
feel creative?
527
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,400
Certainly not fluorescent
lighting.
528
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:09,960
I can tell you that right now.
Thank you.
529
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,840
Yeah, I like.
And ice, kind of a dim sort of,
530
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:19,480
you know, I don't know that warm
lighting.
531
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,480
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
532
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,920
Yeah, Moody, it's got and see,
Chelsea didn't have that.
533
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,480
Chelsea was straight up like
Mike just said.
534
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,320
Chelsea was like in an office
complex.
535
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,320
You go into the you go into
round to the back and you go in
536
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,280
and it's legit.
It was just an office complex
537
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,360
built out like a studio, the
recording studio.
538
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,480
So it it didn't have the same
vibe as as Gravity, which would
539
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,040
again, this doggy parking spot
totally didn't have the same
540
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,960
vibe as that.
I surely don't want concrete
541
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,680
floors.
No concrete floors, No.
542
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,720
I wanna see some throw rugs all
over.
543
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:52,280
Maybe tapestries on the wall.
Dim lighting, nothing bright.
544
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,440
Yeah.
Yep, yeah, You know, especially
545
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,120
if you spent the night before
drinking, right?
546
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:03,520
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
547
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:04,840
A vibe.
It's got to be there.
548
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:06,360
Yeah, it's got to have a vibe,
man.
549
00:28:07,360 --> 00:28:10,040
That just caught my ear when you
said that about the first studio
550
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,160
you were in, that it had a good
vibe to it.
551
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,640
Dave said the same thing about
the studio he was in.
552
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:19,520
You know, the the feel was right
and now you can hear what that
553
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,520
does in the song that we heard
from you in that you were able
554
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,440
to not only get your emotion and
your message across, the sound
555
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,200
is just outstanding.
That's why I wanted to give
556
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,600
kudos to the studio because oh
man, they can also wreck an
557
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,400
excellent song.
You wrote a great song.
558
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:40,360
They could have ruined it by
making it sound thin or sure,
559
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,760
whatever.
You know, just the sound could
560
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,800
have ruined the brilliance of
the song.
561
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,720
Yeah, it has a very fat sound
for sure.
562
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,360
You you fill the space like
there's you're not wanting for
563
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,720
anything in that track at all.
And I had, and I haven't
564
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:53,760
listened to the rescue stuff
yet.
565
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,280
I will.
But that's the first one that I
566
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,040
did and it just kind of it
caught me.
567
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,360
Yeah, so right.
But I have I have I have your
568
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:01,440
county line 1.
I just haven't.
569
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,960
I haven't unboxed that yet, if
you will you.
570
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,160
Know, but cool.
I'm gonna Dave, and I'll report
571
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,400
back then.
All right, yeah.
572
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:13,120
County line was recorded around
in a town called Emmett ID.
573
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:19,640
So, OK, it's the production's
not the same, you know, but I
574
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,760
thought it was pretty good for
what we had at the time.
575
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,120
And I was, I was proud of it at
the time.
576
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,880
I didn't look at it.
And I mean, some of those songs
577
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:32,120
are songs that I probably will
never play live, but but some of
578
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:36,400
them are.
And and yeah, I I always kind of
579
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,480
felt weird about going to
Nashville and playing with these
580
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,920
session players.
Yeah.
581
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:46,240
But the guys that recorded on on
say the song called So far So
582
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,120
good Live in it, which I'm
pretty proud of that song.
583
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,240
Live in it and lean into me does
all right for me too.
584
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:56,360
I like that one, those 3 songs.
The guys that recorded on there
585
00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,560
have recorded on Luke Combs
albums and a bunch of other top
586
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,960
names, you know?
And the mean guitar player was
587
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,680
the the touring guitar player
for Kenny Chesney at the time,
588
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,520
at least I'm not sure what he's
doing these days.
589
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,560
But so they, yeah, they go off
tour and come in and do all that
590
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,280
work right there like that.
I kind of felt a little cheesy
591
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,320
about that, not bringing my own
band, but I had an opportunity
592
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:20,880
to open up for a guy named Colt
Ford.
593
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,160
I'm not sure if you know who he
is, but he's.
594
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,400
Oh yeah, I know.
Colt Ford.
595
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,480
Yeah.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
596
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,120
So he was a.
Little Chad neck man.
597
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:31,080
Oh.
Yeah, so I was talking, I was
598
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,240
talking with his touring
guitarist and, and telling him
599
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,440
what I had just gone and done in
Nashville.
600
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,840
And he says, oh, yeah, man.
I asked, did you?
601
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,280
Are you a session player?
He goes, Yeah, he goes.
602
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,240
I even played on one of Colt
Ford's songs and I'm like, so
603
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,560
you don't go into the studio
with your band it none of them
604
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,320
do.
And yeah, a lot better about
605
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,520
that at that point.
So yeah, they're all mix and
606
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,520
match, and whoever gets on what
album depends on who's available
607
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,760
that day, I guess.
I used to kind of feel weird
608
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,680
about that too.
Like I never wanted anybody to
609
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,520
have any kind of outside
influence on what I was doing
610
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,640
unless they were in the band,
right?
611
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,960
You know, I respect Chris.
I respected Scott, Rick, those
612
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,640
are the only opinions I wanted.
Yeah, that's so stupid.
613
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:24,320
Because at the end of the day,
what we need to do is get
614
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,720
Chris's message across to the
audience right in a.
615
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,080
Format.
Other otherwise, he's reading
616
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,840
poetry.
He want, he wants.
617
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,080
A song?
Yep.
618
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:39,000
So the idea is to get Dave and
Chris's lyrics idea across in a
619
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,880
musical format.
It doesn't matter how that
620
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,440
happens.
Absolutely.
621
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:44,760
Because we're all still
involved.
622
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,520
There's two of the Colt Ford
albums on my playlist.
623
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:48,760
Cool.
Right on.
624
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,520
Yeah, yeah, he's.
Yeah.
625
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,800
He's chicken and chicken and
biscuits, man.
626
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,000
Yeah.
I mean, you could go at it from
627
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,160
a purist perspective.
I did when I was young guy.
628
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,480
I I'm not, I want creative
control over everything.
629
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,680
We're going to sing the words we
want to sing.
630
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,360
We're going to play them the
guitars the way we want to play
631
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,120
them.
And it's like, well, there's a
632
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:16,840
reason that those guys are like
top 200 and higher on the
633
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,200
country Billboard charts, right?
It's not because they're
634
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,560
purists.
It's because they no, there's a
635
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,600
way to do things and they know
how to do it and they do a damn
636
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,120
fine job at it.
So Yep, here we are.
637
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,400
Understand who their audience is
and what they wanna hear.
638

Tim Schmidt, SCHMIDTI.
DT.
648
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,760
He's one of my best friends from
high school, but we're still in.
649
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,440
That's a close contact too.
Yeah, that guy does.
650
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,240
So yeah, he, he created that.
I'm just sitting there pointing
651
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,680
at a camera that the whole I
don't look like that.
652
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,000
Just, you know, that's all I'm
doing.
653
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,000
And he makes it.
You do right live.
654
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,760
Yeah, yeah.
And you're, so you got a show.
655
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,000
You got a show coming up
Saturday, September 27th in
656
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,440
Astoria, OR Yep, Yep.
And that's.
657
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,640
My my old stomping grounds over
there too.
658
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,760
OK, cool.
Kind of where I grew up.
659
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,640
Dinner and concert with Dave
Nice.
660
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,280
There's there's some action
shot.
661
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,280
Is this is this from your buddy
Tim or is this just somebody
662
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,880
else on the road taking pics?
Those are, yeah, just kind of
663
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,640
pictures taken from probably a
cell phone.
664
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,400
Look, Dave, yeah, your look is.
Out you have the look like
665
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,960
straight up dude, you got the
look for for what?
666
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:52,920
But think about it, so many
artists you.
667
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:54,760
You hate when you have there
too.
668
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,400
That's a huge point, Chris.
Yeah, when you hear, when you
669
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,520
hear somebody singing right and
then, and then you, you radio
670
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,200
Sirius, whatever.
And then all of a sudden you go
671
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,800
home and you Google that then
and it's like, oh, that's what?
672
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,800
Oh, really?
Oh you, you have the look to
673
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,960
back the sound man.
All right.
674
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:11,760
Awesome.
Well, thank you.
675
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,080
I mean that's I would say nobody
that was on purpose.
676
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,040
Well, I know, but yeah, that's
gotta be, yeah.
677
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,440
I always say nobody wants to go
to a concert and see their dad
678
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,000
up there playing music, right?
You don't want to see it or
679
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,000
their up shirt.
Or their teacher or something.
680
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:33,440
Yeah, yeah, I don't, I don't
never show up at a gig as if I
681
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,520
just got off work and and came
came over, you know, Right,
682
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:38,600
Right.
I thought that was pretty
683
00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:41,080
valuable lesson.
Representation as well.
684
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,280
Yeah.
Absolutely, Absolutely.
685
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,840
If you're going to be larger
than life, you got to be larger
686
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,960
than life.
Yeah, you do.
687
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,280
You got to own it, man.
You got to have the.
688
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,520
Presents.
When I go to the grocery store,
689
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,280
this is what I look like.
When I go set up my gear, this
690
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,160
is what I look like.
I call him this guy Dave's
691
00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,480
Roadie.
So.
692
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,440
And then I'll, I'll go change my
hat and put on my glasses and
693
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,440
oh, shit.
Dave Noodles here.
694
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,600
All right, Yeah.
No, it, it worked, though.
695
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,920
You got to have you got to have
like Mike was big when we, when
696
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:16,840
he put together the band that we
were in, he, he was, the looks
697
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,080
were important because back then
it was the early 90s.
698
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:20,800
So it's all about about the
look.
699
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,440
And do you have like he he had
long hair.
700
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,400
Scott had long hair.
I ironically was in a play.
701
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,720
My bald cap ripped so I shaved
my head.
702
00:35:27,720 --> 00:35:28,960
Shut up.
The one day to practice my head
703
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,080
shaved.
Unbeknownst to my ignorance of
704
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,800
of me, I was wearing red and
black flannel shirts with Doc
705
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,720
Martens and a completely shaved
head.
706
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:40,240
In like 1994.
And, you know, living, living
707
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:43,200
with a black dude as my roommate
who is all into Louis Farrakhan
708
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:44,720
and shit.
So imagine us walking down the
709
00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:50,400
street, Dave.
But but so it was great.
710
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:53,480
And then we got we got typecast
for one of our shows.
711
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,560
They put us with a Skinhead kind
of thing because oh really?
712
00:35:57,920 --> 00:35:59,560
And we were the heard this thing
from that.
713
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,320
But you know, we were accepted
because the way I looked, you
714
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,840
know, sure, because I owned the
stage, I had the presence, I
715
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,640
knew how to work the crowd and
shit, which we won't go into the
716
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,960
story because they told 1000 of
times, but you know, I, I filled
717
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,760
the void for a singer they had
that that just wouldn't perform
718
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,840
on stage in front of a crowd.
That's another thing.
719
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,240
You can't just stand still while
you sing your songs anymore.
720
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,680
No, I mean you can.
Sometimes you can get away with
721
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,440
it a little.
Bit straight and get George yeah
722
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:29,160
yeah George Strait can get away
with it Alan Jackson getting
723
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,720
away with it but you know Dave
Mustaine gets away with it but I
724
00:36:32,720 --> 00:36:36,000
I lose interest if you just I
just.
725
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,560
Hands in one hand in a pocket,
one hand on the mic.
726
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,240
Yeah, yeah.
I'm like, you're feeling it.
727
00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:45,960
So show the world you feel it,
you know?
728
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,600
Yeah, it's but to each his own
though.
729
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,120
But that's, you know.
But I agree with you.
730
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,160
If, if for me, if the singer's
not entertaining, I'm not, I'm
731
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,920
not.
I'm not going past him to the
732
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,080
band.
Right.
733
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,960
Chris literally would not take
no for an answer from any crowd
734
00:36:59,960 --> 00:37:03,240
that ever stood in front of him.
No, if he asked them a question
735
00:37:03,240 --> 00:37:06,880
and he and he got crickets.
He was like, I'm not going to
736
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,800
quit asking this question until
I get some kind of response and
737
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:13,240
and not in those words.
But he had a very good way of
738
00:37:13,240 --> 00:37:16,720
just asking that same question
until people were like, oh, he
739
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:18,600
wants us to participate.
Yeah, right.
740
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,760
I used to give away.
I used to give away pictures of
741
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,120
beer.
I I used to give away pictures
742
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:24,720
of beer, Dave.
So I'd ask people.
743
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,800
The first time I ever did, I was
like, who wants a free pitch of
744
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,000
your beer?
Crickets.
745
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,320
And I was like, I don't think
you heard me.
746
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,400
The loudest motherfucker who
raises their hand when I say,
747
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,960
who wants a free pitch of beer?
You get a pitch of your beer.
748
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,800
I already paid for it. 123.
Who wants a free pitch of beer?
749
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,880
And then everybody's like, what?
So that's the point where I just
750
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,720
had like, OK, right there.
And then we were.
751
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:48,680
Right.
So I I think I did that six or
752
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,440
seven times at that venue and
then they finally killed me.
753
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:51,520
He's like, dude, you can't do
that.
754
00:37:51,720 --> 00:37:53,440
Like you don't have an all 21
show.
755
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,720
You have to stop.
I'm like, really?
756
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:58,360
Oh, I'm going to.
Remember.
757
00:37:59,720 --> 00:38:01,440
Yeah, so.
But it's a cool little bit,
758
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,280
because who doesn't want a free
beer?
759
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,480
Right.
We found a work around then you
760
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:07,720
just had Nikki go by.
Yeah.
761
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,360
Yeah, yeah.
My wife just ended up buying the
762
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,040
beer.
And you made sure they were 21,
763
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,040
you know, but it's still that
was amazed the first time, Dave,
764
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,760
you asked the question.
It's like it's OK.
765
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,200
You know, the funniest night.
And I just thought of this the
766
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,640
other day because I was thinking
of you doing that, giving away
767
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,400
T-shirts and bumper stickers and
beers.
768
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,880
And remember the night we were
playing with Sacred Reich and
769
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,320
nobody, You're like, who's here
to see Sacred Reich?
770
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,160
And nobody said anything.
And you were like Chris said,
771
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,640
you all know that the guy
running sound plays rhythm
772
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,960
guitar in the band you came to
see, right?
773
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,600
So then he got kind of 1/2
lukewarm response the second
774
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,040
time.
And he says, Jason, feel free to
775
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:51,160
kick all their asses because
literally their rhythm guitar
776
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,160
player was our sound man.
So he was right there.
777
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,960
Right on.
Well, I know this whenever.
778
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,520
That.
Yeah, whenever I get a mediocre
779
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,880
response when I'm on a
microphone and I'd say like
780
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,680
something like how we all doing
tonight or whatever, you know,
781
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,840
just trying to get get a little
rise out of the crowd and a
782
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:14,360
little soft, kind of like woo.
I'm like, oh, right.
783
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,600
So what I figured out is if you
say it again with a little bit
784
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,320
more conviction, a little
louder, people start realizing
785
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,560
that, oh, oh, he was talking to
us.
786
00:39:24,240 --> 00:39:27,520
So then you get the big cheer
from the crowd that that's the
787
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,360
the bitch about playing in bars
and stuff like that.
788
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,440
I'm I'm glad that I have the
opportunity to do bigger things
789
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,320
than that, but I love playing in
the bars too.
790
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,560
It's a lot of fun, as long as
everybody knows what they're.
791
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,800
There for somewhere, Yeah,
right.
792
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,960
Well, and, and when they know
that you're there to really
793
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,920
perform for them, it's a
different thing than just some
794
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,440
band in the background making
noise while we're over here
795
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,840
visiting with our friends or
whatever, you know, So, and I, I
796
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,760
have a couple of songs like like
so far so good that I wrote.
797
00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:00,400
The reason I wrote it, called it
So Far So Good is because
798
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,680
everybody knows that phrase.
And so my job is to get
799
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,440
everybody to say it at the
shows.
800
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:10,240
And I do, and sometimes it takes
a few takes a couple of tries to
801
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:13,000
get everybody on board, but I
always get them.
802
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:14,480
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
803
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,480
It does, and there's nothing
better than that man having the
804
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:18,960
crowd sing back to you where
you're telling.
805
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,640
Hell yeah, that.
Absolutely.
806
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,520
That to me is is the greatest
moment of every time I was ever
807
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,000
on stage.
If I got the crowd to sing
808
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,280
something back to me.
Yep.
809
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,000
Right.
That was my when, when I decided
810
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,920
I wanted to get into the music
world, that was my thing.
811
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,480
I wanted to be standing, you
know, in front of a venue like
812
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:37,920
Madison, the Square Garden and
just kind of step back and have
813
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,680
people sing back to me.
Never happened, but it's still
814
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:43,680
what we we approached every show
like this is it.
815
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,120
This is the last time we're
playing.
816
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,680
So there was never, there was
never that, oh shit, we're
817
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,640
playing this song for the
thousandth time or the five
818
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,200
thousandth time.
It wasn't like that with us.
819
00:40:51,240 --> 00:40:54,640
Like our whole purpose once we
got on the stage was like, we're
820
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,880
going to win this crowd over
because they're a new crowd.
821
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,400
We had the ability to open up
for everybody from Marshall
822
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,240
Tucker Band to Sacred Right to.
You know Tony McAlpine, Pat
823
00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:06,600
Travers, right?
Just LA Gong.
824
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,680
Yeah, $7.00.
Yeah, I mean, just because we
825
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,040
had, we were that song you heard
for the for the show that we
826
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,680
started, that's one of our songs
called Freeman.
827
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,360
Oh, OK, right on.
And we wrote that 30 years ago,
828
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,800
and it's still can still be
played today, yeah.
829
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:23,720
Love it.
Yeah.
830
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:26,320
That's the cool thing about
music, man.
831
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,320
It's just it's timeless, the
test of time.
832
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,120
And it's a it's a common thread.
Like, you know, we don't know
833
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,480
you from Adam, and we've had a
conversation for 50 minutes all
834
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,240
about music and it's like we're
brothers.
835
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,520
You know, absolutely that's.
Been the beauty of music my
836
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,200
whole life, man.
Once you find out you have that
837
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:45,320
common ground.
Like Chris just said, instantly
838
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,240
we were all three on the same
page.
839
00:41:47,240 --> 00:41:49,800
We just met you, you know, less
than an hour ago.
840
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,360
Yeah, Yep.
But that's because you've been
841
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,320
doing music for 25 years. him
and I have been doing it for 30
842
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,680
plus years.
When you have that kind of
843
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:02,880
dedication put into anything,
you really have respect for
844
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:04,960
anyone that does anything at
that level.
845
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,760
Not just music, you know, any
kind of art construction,
846
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,800
whatever is yours.
What I like to call skill set.
847
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,080
Yeah.
Right When you put that 10,000
848
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:17,520
hours into it and then you
become a master, you have
849
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,720
appreciation for anybody that
can do that, Yeah.
850
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,040
Absolutely, yeah.
Unspoken respect.
851
00:42:23,240 --> 00:42:26,760
Immediately, the guy that taught
me to play gave me that lesson
852
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:31,680
that he just talked about.
Probably maybe in the first year
853
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:35,240
I was taking lessons when I
first started to be able to play
854
00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:38,760
a song.
He's like, every time you pick
855
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,720
up your guitar, play like it's
the last time you're ever going
856
00:42:41,720 --> 00:42:43,640
to play, because eventually it
will be.
857
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,720
Right, so.
What he meant was don't put 1/2
858
00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:49,520
hearted effort into it, ever.
Whether you're practicing or
859
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,600
whether you're standing in front
of 60,000 people, you play the
860
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,120
same way every time.
Yeah, absolutely.
861
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:58,160
And when I'm feeling like I'm
not playing well, it's always
862
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,640
because I'm not putting enough
effort into it, you know?
863
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,840
Right.
Yeah, I kind of approach the
864
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,800
singing too, that way.
Like I'm not gonna half ass it
865
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:10,720
at a show.
I'm gonna put all I've got into
866
00:43:10,720 --> 00:43:13,000
it every time.
And it doesn't matter if they're
867
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,520
even if five people or 4000
people, right, They all get the
868
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,880
so far so good treatment.
Yeah, that was.
869
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:22,880
Awesome.
And I I learned I learned that
870
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,280
from watching the documentary on
mother love bone Precious
871
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,160
Andrew.
All right, you know, just bummer
872
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,000
that the dude's dead, but.
Yeah, absolutely.
873
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,600
Yeah.
That that Andrew would to me
874
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:39,280
epitomized a lead singer and and
one of one of the many singers
875
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:40,840
that I kind of like.
Oh, agreed.
876
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,400
But he approached every single
show, whether like you said,
877
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:47,080
whether it's five people or
5000, he's in an arena.
878
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,600
I'm, I'm in front of, I'm in
front of 5000 people, whatever.
879
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,360
And his mindset was I'm playing
in front of a sold out crowd at
880
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,960
the biggest venue possible.
And I'm making sure everybody in
881
00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,000
this venue hears me and it gets
the same experience.
882
00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:00,960
Kind of like you and I were
talking yesterday how Garth
883
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,720
Brooks approach things in his
heyday, right where he'd go up
884
00:44:03,720 --> 00:44:06,320
to the to the top of the stadium
and look down at the crowd.
885
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,840
He's like, I got to figure out
how this person up here can feel
886
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:10,880
me all the way down there.
Right.
887
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,240
That's a unique, that's a unique
skill set for a singer to be
888
00:44:14,240 --> 00:44:15,720
able to do that.
But you have to be able to do
889
00:44:15,720 --> 00:44:18,760
that to get people in into what
you're doing because that
890
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,000
equates to the sales and the
success and the, and the
891
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,040
merchandise and all the things
that come along with it.
892
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,120
But I mean, and so it's it's
it's not an easy thing to do
893
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,080
because there's lots of bands
out there.
894
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,840
We talked about they just will
stand there and sing.
895
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:31,840
There's no man engaged.
You're not excited.
896
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:33,320
It's like, yeah, come on, man,
come on.
897
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,240
You know, you know, and you
know, one hit wonders on 12
898
00:44:36,240 --> 00:44:37,880
track albums.
It's like, what the fuck?
899
00:44:38,720 --> 00:44:41,160
We got like 10 minutes.
We got, we got like 10 minutes
900
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:42,200

I want to share, man.
Let's go.
934
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,360
Stupid thing.
I thought I would share the
935
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:15,680
pages with me as I was moving.
No, you got to do it each tab.
936

So this is this is Dave's.

Schmidt.

So that's kind of cool.
That was a cool.
941
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:30,480
This is all his concept too.
I mean, I don't really read
942
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,880
Louis Lamar books and I don't
smoke cigars.
943
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:34,640
I mean, I'll drink the whiskey,
but.
944
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:39,240
Don't tell people that, Dave.
He's the artist on that picture.
945
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,280
Yeah, yeah.
Tim's going Don't give away all
946
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:43,040

Don't give.

00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:46,160
Away the secrets.

954
00:47:00,240 --> 00:47:02,640
Sorry about that.
I love that picture that you
955
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:05,840
guys shared for the promo for
our show, too.
956
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,200
Yeah, Where where's that taken
at?
957
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:12,080
That's an excellent picture.
Oh, yeah, we, we, we, we played
958
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:16,280
at the Treeport Music Hall last
year and sold the tickets for
959
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:19,080
all of that down here in Boise.
And, and boy, that stage is
960
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:20,560
killer.
I mean, look at those lights.
961
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:21,440
Those are amazing.
Yeah.
962
00:47:21,720 --> 00:47:24,840
Yeah, that looks beautiful, man.
And there's other ones from that
963
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,640
that are totally different color
scheme that just looked
964
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,000
phenomenal.
So whoever's running the lights
965
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,920
down there at Treeport Music
Halls got they got it on the
966
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,520
lock.
Kudo.
967
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:36,880
We had some really cool pictures
coming out of that.
968
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,400
Yeah, yeah, that's a cool venue.
Right on.
969
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,200
Yeah, so I kind of just told
everybody where to find you.
970
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,320
We got about 5 minutes left.
Anything else you want to say
971
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,080
before I wrap this up and you
get on with your day?
972
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,920
Check out Vela Cheetah.
It looks like Vela.
973
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,160
How do you spell that VEL it?
Looks like velocity.
974
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,200
Right.
Yeah, it's not really pronounced
975
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,120
the way it's said.
So what's the last four letters
976
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,040
on it?
CSCITA.
977
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:08,520
Yeah, Bella cheated with Bruce
Gambino and and Russ Allen is
978
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,360
his partner and Russ Allen is
the dude that kind of founded
979
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,640
Symphony X and he started
Adrenaline Mob and boy, that
980
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:20,600
guy, I didn't realize who I was
dealing with when I heard the
981
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:22,920
name Russ Allen.
That guy's got one of the most
982
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:26,360
killer singing voices on the
face of the planet and, and
983
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:31,600
apparently quite a, a hell of a
work ethic.
984
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,480
So I'm I'm in good hands with
these guys and Bruce Gambino
985
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:39,760
and, and yeah, Bella Cheetah.
I'm looking forward to all the
986
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:42,240
things that that are coming up
real soon.
987
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,680
That's awesome.
Yeah, Bruce, Bruce.
988
00:48:44,720 --> 00:48:46,520
Bruce is good people, man.
He's he.
989
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,760
I sent him a Facebook message,
dude.
990
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,680
That's how I found him.
And it took him a while.
991
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,080
He took him a while.
I'm going to share this.
992
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,200
It took him a while to get back
to me because obviously he's
993
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,480
busy.
But, you know, same thing, the
994
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:02,880
common thread of music.
I consider him a friend because,
995
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,720
I mean, we've had conversations
last an hour or more and it's
996
00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:08,680
all talking about music and
musicians.
997
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:10,480
Yeah, that's his.
That's his.
998
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:12,480
That's his LinkedIn.
That's his LinkedIn page.
999
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:13,760
Oh.
Cool.
1000
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:15,400
That's awesome.
Yeah.
1001
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:16,440
Right on.
I wanted.
1002
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,040
I wanted, yeah.
Yeah, he's a hell of a nice guy.
1003
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:23,360
And yeah, like you said, you can
get in a conversation for quite
1004
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,760
a while with that guy.
He's about as friendly as they
1005
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,560
get.
Also, he's a hard working dude
1006
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:32,640
and he's got a lot of ambition.
And I'm, I'm really, I feel like
1007
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,320
I'm in good hands with with
that, that whole group of dudes.
1008
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:39,320
And I can't wait to see what
comes in 2026.
1009
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:43,240
So we're, we're supposed to be
going on, you know, tours with
1010
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:47,200
much bigger names than mine.
And I'm just happy as hell to be
1011
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:50,040
doing that.
Yeah, he's, yeah.

So here's, There it is.

I'll tell you, I'm not gonna
ever mess with that guy.

00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,920
Yeah, yeah.
So that's his Facebook page.
1021
00:50:14,240 --> 00:50:17,360
But yeah, he's a super nice guy
and fucking way cool.

day with you in it.
You don't want to leave a hole
1060
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:56,960
in somebody else's heart because
you decided to make a decision
1061
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:58,200
that you can never come back
from.
1062
00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:00,840

he's got a commitment prior
13
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,760
after this, after this little
show goes.
14
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,840
Excited to have you here, Dave.
I actually bought your album and
15
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,320
thanks.
And then I bought your single.
16
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,880
I, I bought your single The Lord
or the Devil Man, because I like
17
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,360
the title of the song, right?
And it didn't let me down, man.
18
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,600
Nice fucking good song, brother
love.
19
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,840
Exactly.
Sound I I really like your sound
20
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,920
a lot.
That's right up my style as far
21
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,320
as what I like to play lead
around, just that kind of vibe
22
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:41,840
as far as the rhythm goes.
And I like that Southern rock
23
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,280
slash country slash rocks, you
know, just right, taking every
24
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,480
style and throwing it in in a
melting pot.
25
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,960
That's that's kind of where I
feel you're going in that
26
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,560
direction.
That's where I was aiming,
27
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,280
absolutely.
I dig it man, Thanks and for me,
28
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,880
thanks for coming on.
Nice to meet.
29
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,920
You, yeah.
Nice to meet you guys too, both
30
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:03,240
of you.
Yeah, I let Mike know last night
31
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,480
you were coming on, so he wasn't
going to be completely, you
32
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,480
know, caught off guard.
They were having that right,
33
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,440
having a a charting musician on.
So that's cool, man.
34
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,880
So what's on?
What's on Dave's docket?
35
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,000
Give the give our listeners a
little, I don't know, 3060
36
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,440
second sound bite of who you
are, what you're doing, where
37
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,000
you're going, what's your where
your shows out all the kind of
38
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,880
jazz how they can find you.
And then we'll just, you know,
39
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:24,720
you dive right in, man.
Right on.
40
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,840
Well, so I just kind of signed a
contract with a company called
41
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,240
Bella Cheetah and they a
management company and he's got
42
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,080
a fleet of tour buses and, and
all of the contacts in the
43
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,800
world.
So he can put me on pretty major
44
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,880
tours.
And we're looking forward to
45
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,680
that.
We're kind of trying to get some
46
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,080
new music out and re re record
some of the old stuff because
47
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:50,240
it's tied up with with some
other publishing stuff and and
48
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,720
we want to kind of be free of
all that.
49
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,720
And so there will be an album
coming out again here real like
50
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,480
in the next year sometime.
But right now we're just kind of
51
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,840
releasing a few singles and as
soon as all that's in place,
52
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,920
he's going to be putting us on
radio and and sending us out to
53
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,840
all over the states.
And we're looking forward to it
54
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,880
and.
We're and we're talking about,
55
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,680
we're talking about, we're
talking about Bruce, right?
56
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,680
Yeah, Bruce Gambino with Bella
Cheetah.
57
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,360
Yeah.
Hi, Bruce.
58
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,360
Hi, Bruce.
Thanks for thanks for sending

00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:23,840

I think they're Bella Cheetahs
62
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,880
based out of Oklahoma.
So we're going to, we're going
63
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,360
to go, yeah, sometime 2026,
there's a big festival we're
64
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,600
going to be able to go play
there.
65
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,520
And up until then we're going to
be shooting around for like the
66
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,440
Hard Rock Cafe stages of that
kind of stuff, you know, bigger
67
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,800
concert houses and, and
hopefully moving into arenas at

00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,280
some point.
So we're looking forward to

00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:01,280

shirts.
See, I got vinyl because nice.
85
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,800
You got to go old school, right?
Excellent.
86
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,680
I'm wearing Ned Ladue.
Man, Oh, there you go.
87
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,520
There you go.
That's awesome.
88
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,040
Yeah, he's cool.
He's a cool dude.
89
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,080
So how long, how long you been
been making music man?
90
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:57,480
Oh, let's see, 2526 years,
something like that.
91
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,080
You know, I'm as far as like
from when I was learning how to
92
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,440
play guitar and, and learning
how to write songs and all that
93
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,000
kind of stuff and joining a
band.
94
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,240
And that was like right around
the Millennium, the Millennium
95
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,120
change.
So yeah, gosh, I guess that.
96
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,840
'D be changed everything, man.
2025 years.
97
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:22,240
Holy holy hell. 25 years, yeah.
Son of a bitch I'm getting old,
98
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,800
man.
Yeah, we feel your pain,
99
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:26,200
brother.
We.
100
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,880
Feel your pain.
Yeah, that was cool.
101
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,280
It was pretty cool getting into
that first band and being being
102
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:38,200
able to go out and play like the
Millennium New Year's Eve show,
103
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,480
that was pretty awesome.
Everybody was still a little
104
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,400
afraid of Y2K, you know?
And the computer's crashing, and
105
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,320
at midnight the show was going
to shut down because
106
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:51,320
everything's going to fall off
the face of the planet, right?
107
00:05:51,840 --> 00:05:53,400
But we just kept on rocking, you
know, there.
108
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,160
You go now.
Is it just you doing solo stuff?
109
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,360
Because I noticed on YouTube
it's Dave Noodle than Dave
110
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,800
Noodle Band.
Right.
111
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,200
Yeah, well, you.
Got 2 separate things.
112
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:08,440
Dave Nudo Band is what it
started out with and when when I
113
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,200
made my first record called
County Line and we didn't have.
114
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,560
That's the one I just bought.
Yeah, And thank you.
115
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,120
By the way, we didn't have a
name.
116
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,280
You're welcome.
Thank you.
117
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,440
We didn't have a name.
Is.
118
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,320
That the wife is that the wife
is that the wife.
119
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,160
Get the wife in the picture.
Man.
120
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,320
OK, I'll get her in the picture
when she comes back.
121
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:27,680
Yeah.
Come on, man.
122
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,160
So, you know, so.
So yeah, it we didn't have a
123
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,680
name when we went and recorded
that album for the band.
124
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,640
It was just me and my songs and
a couple of friends that that
125
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,400
were helping me put the tracks
down.
126
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,440
And and the producer was like,
well, what's the name of the
127
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,480
band?
Because he wanted to save the
128
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,720
first song that we recorded.
And I'm like, I don't have a
129
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,080
name for the band.
And, and Herb, the guitar
130
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:57,000
players like Dave Noodle band.
I'm like, OK, that'll work that
131
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,360
way, you know, because I write
all these songs all these years
132
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,360
and join other bands with these
songs and I feel like I got to
133
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,600
leave them on the on the shelf
as soon as that band breaks up.
134
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,040
And, well, if I don't name it
some band name and, and take
135
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,560
complete charge of, of where the
direction goes, the band doesn't
136
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,960
break up unless I just quit, you
know, and I can keep moving
137
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,520
forward with all of the momentum
that I build over the years.
138
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,440
So I thought that was a pretty,
pretty good move going from a
139
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:27,160
band band name kind of a thing
to just, you know, my name.
140
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,760
Yeah.
So that's how that went about
141
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,480
anyway.
So we've been moving more
142
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,920
towards just cutting off band
and calling it Dave Nudo, you
143
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,920
know, cuz it's not Luke Combs
band, it's not Chris Stapleton
144
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,280
band.
It's the artist and the
145
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,720
songwriter.
And then they got their their
146
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,600
guys to back them up and, and
sometimes you know who they are
147
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,800
and sometimes you don't.
We've always been kind of pretty
148
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,280
good about making sure everybody
knows who's in the band.
149
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,680
But once again, if, if the
guitar player quits or the
150
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:05,360
drummer changes or whatever,
that no, nothing gets disrupted,
151
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,040
disrupted this way.
So and I like it.
152
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,240
So you're the primary songwriter
in the band?
153
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,240
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've, I've Co write with a few
154
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,680
people, but I haven't really Co
written with anybody in the
155
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,320
band.
That might change in the future.
156
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,320
We're we're working on some,
some ideas and stuff like that.
157
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,520
And, but, and there's always
been a collaboration as far as
158
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,480
how the show goes.
But so to answer your original
159
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,640
question, yeah, I do a lot of
solo shows.
160
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,360
It's, it's a great way to get my
face and my brand out there
161
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:40,400
without having to try to afford
all the guys and, and pay
162
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,120
everybody and, and that kind of
stuff.
163
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,280
And I can pay my bills pretty
good that way, doing solo shows
164
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,680
in smaller venues and, and, and
some bigger venues.
165
00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:54,800
I'll open for guys coming into
town sometimes at the like the
166
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,560
Knitting Factory or whatever.
In fact, I opened up for Ned
167
00:08:57,560 --> 00:08:58,760
Ledoux there.
Thank you.
168
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,120
These guys wanted to say hi to
you.
169
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,560
They won't be able to hear.
You won't be able to hear them,
170
00:09:02,560 --> 00:09:04,760
but you can wave.
This is my lovely bride.
171
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,040
Her name is Celeste.
That's Chris and Mike.
172
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:10,680
Nice and last.
Nice and last.
173
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:12,680
That was quick, man.
She moved in and out.
174
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,920
Short and sweet.
Well, she didn't have
175
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:16,640
headphones.
Woo.
176
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,840
My wife, my wife just comes in
the house and then goes away.
177
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,480
It's like.
We get them out same amount of
178
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,440
time every.
Every now and then she'll come
179
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,600
pop, pop her head up right here
and that's about it.
180
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:31,160
It's like.
Alright, thanks.
181
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,040
In and out.
Right on.
182
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,640
Yeah, exactly.
That's what she said.
183
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,760
You're welcome.
Yeah, No.
184
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:47,800
Well, go ahead, Mike.
I got a musician here.
185
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,440
Fire away, man.
Fire away.
186
00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:56,000
Well, that's the reason I wanted
to know why you or not, why I
187
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,280
wanted to know if you were the
primary songwriter, because
188
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,720
Chris and I would come at it
from a completely different
189
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,000
perspective.
For 30 years, on and off, he's
190
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,200
been my lyricist and I've been
his musician, so.
191
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,920
Oh cool.
You know, we, we count on each
192
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,160
other because he doesn't play an
instrument and I don't write
193
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,760
lyrics.
Oh, right.
194
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,480
A lot of people would find it
fascinating that I don't have a
195
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:21,440
lot to say, but I've never been
able to.
196
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,840
I've never been able to put it
into format.
197
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:29,640
So what would you describe your
process as far as sitting down
198
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,200
and writing a song?
Do you have a process or does it
199
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,280
change for each individual song?
Do you write the music first
200
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,840
sometimes, the lyric first
sometimes or?
201
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,680
Yeah, about it.
Yeah, that.
202
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,480
I mean, it does.
It varies with the song.
203
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,720
A lot of times this is the way
it goes.
204
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,640
I'll be sitting there with this
idea in my hell here of praise,
205
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,080
right?
And, and there will be a melody
206
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,160
with it.
And if there ain't one, I'll
207
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,960
have one in moments and then
just kind of go from there.
208
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,880
Sometimes I start with a a
really great chorus idea.
209
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,800
I've got this whole piece that I
would consider a chorus of a
210
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,240
song.
And then now I got.
211
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,880
Now I got to figure out how not
to mess that thing up with a
212
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,160
bunch of too wordy averses and
that.
213
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,280
Kind of stuff.
So I say the same thing.
214
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,040
How do we not practice?
That's exactly right.
215
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,720
Yeah.
So and and then the other way it
216
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,160
a lot of times I'll just sit
down with some idea come to my
217
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,240
mind and I write it down and
then or use my phone anymore,
218
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,960
but but get that line down and
then just, well, what's the next
219
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,960
line?
And it starts at the beginning
220
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,560
and I write it till the end of
the song and and then I've got a
221
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:36,280
melody in my mind, probably with
everything on there.
222
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,320
And then I got to figure out,
you know, what chords on the
223
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,040
guitar to play with it so I can
sing it and accompany myself and
224
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,680
give the guys a demo and that
sort of thing.
225
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,280
Other times I'm just, I got this
cool little thing I'm strumming
226
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,480
along and you know, a line pops
into my head while I'm doing
227
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,680
that and, and so I move forward
that way.
228
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,280
It, it really does vary.
But mostly, I'd say just coming
229
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,320
up with words that I wanted to
elaborate on, you know?
230
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,960
I guess that was my question
without I didn't form formulate
231
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,560
the question very good.
Would you consider yourself a
232
00:12:11,560 --> 00:12:13,840
lyricist first or a musician
first?
233
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:17,640
Probably a lyricist, I'd say.
I mean.
234
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:24,680
I think he would tell you, I
think he would tell you that we
235
00:12:24,680 --> 00:12:27,440
have the similar approach in
that he brings me a melody
236
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,320
sometimes and there's other
times I will be playing
237
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,760
something that inspires him to
either think of something he
238
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,680
wrote before or write something
new.
239
00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:40,120
So I guess I was hearing that
you consider yourself a lyricist
240
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,200
first.
That was my.
241
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,160
I would question, I would say
first, I'm a lyricist, but I'm
242
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,720
also a musician and I've, I've,
you know, sat in my little dinky
243
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,200
studio and and created all, you
know, the whole song, of course,
244
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,560
have to use a drum machine.
I am not a drummer.
245
00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:01,240
I can't, I can do this.
But if I have my feet into it,
246
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,240
it's gone.
Me either.
247
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,160
I'm gonna hold a beat for about
20 seconds before it all goes
248
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,800
sideways.
I suppose if.
249
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,320
I We all have that in common, I
think.
250
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:12,840
Right.
Good.
251
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,400
I'm in good company.
See, MM and I have yeah, Mike
252
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,200
and I have unique, the unique, I
don't know if it's ability, but
253
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,760
but I can write.
I can write a set of lyrics like
254
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,920
I wrote one of the last songs
and I use my phone too.
255
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,520
Now that's the beautiful thing
about Notes on on an Apple
256
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,240
phone.
Tell your phone price.
257
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,040
You can or you can just send it
right exactly.
258
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:36,800
So then so I can send him a song
of just the lyrics and he can he
259
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,400
can tell right away what I was
thinking from an emotional
260
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,880
standpoint, if it needs to be
hard driven, angry, or if it's,
261
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,080
you know, if it's, I don't
really write, you know, happy.
262
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,320
Hey, hey, hey, I write about
life and shit.
263
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,760
So you know, there are there are
there are happy things in life.
264
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,880
But that's the cool thing about
our relationship is I can just
265
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,160
give him a song and then and
I'll come back the next day
266
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,320
after, you know, one practice
here, check this out and come
267
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,280
back the next day.
And he's so check it out, check
268
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,040
out this riff.
And I'm like, holy shit, that
269
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,120
matches it perfectly.
So it's that kind of a cool
270
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,760
thing that's like both our left
brains just merge into one.
271
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,280
And it just works not to.
Interrupt you.
272
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,840
But the crazy thing about that,
Dave, is I never considered that
273
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,880
a gift until he put it into
words.
274
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,000
It's like how many people can
just look at a sheet of paper
275
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,280
and then say, OK, this is what I
think he's feeling musically,
276
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,040
right?
This is the message he wants to
277
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,520
convey.
I guess it is a pretty
278
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,520
fascinating gift because he
could have been thinking, hey, I
279
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,640
wanted that to be like a
melodic, beautiful, romantic.
280
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,680
What?
However, you want to describe it
281
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:44,320
in words and you turned it into
hellscape, right?
282
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,000
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
That's a hell of a gift, really.
283
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,560
I mean, and just being able to
read words and and figure out
284
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,320
what kind of a mood that's, I
mean, sometimes you can get it
285
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,360
because of the way that the
words are formed.
286
00:14:58,360 --> 00:14:59,960
I mean, you're talking about sad
shit.
287
00:14:59,960 --> 00:15:03,480
It's a sad song.
So but being able to convey that
288
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,200
musically is really where the
gift is in my opinion.
289
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,720
And I'm not even sure I've got
that gift.
290
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,840
Sometimes I get it right.
But but, but you know, guys like
291
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,840
you, that's a really impressive,
impressive deal.
292
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,920
The song I heard from you, you
definitely know how to convey
293
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,680
emotion because I was feeling
everything you were trying to
294
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,560
get across, just even on that
little speaker through a
295
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,080
microphone, through my.
Headphones I get.
296
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,200
It man, and that's that's a
gift.
297
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,160
So if you want to know if you're
being successful in that
298
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,360
department, I would say
resoundingly, yes.
299
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,200
Oh well, thank you very much,
Wilson.
300
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,560
Some of those tracks were were
done by other people, so I may
301
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,840
not have had my hands in in
making the real mood of the
302
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,440
music come alive with the
lyrics, you know what I mean?
303
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,800
But.
But you, right.
304
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,480
But you, you still wrote this
song, which is right here.
305
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,320
And you still, you know, you
still perform it.
306
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,720
Oh yeah.
Go man, fucking hey brother.
307
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,000
The Lord or the.
I'm telling you dude, this is
308
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,360
the first.
This is the first one.
309
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,600
This is the first one I
downloaded from you man.
310
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,960
I dig it.
Everybody's looking for
311
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:16,440
something good for something
bad, even though they shoot a
312
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,040
little bit of heaven right here
on earth, a little hell.
313
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:26,320
If that's what works, you can
look in your Sunday hymns.
314
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:31,760
I ride it on the back of the
road or call my old.
315
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,560
Hell yeah.
Yeah, right.
316
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,320
Lyrically dude, that's a bad ass
man.
317
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,760
Thank you.
Yeah, That whole song idea came
318
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,600
to me at like 3:00 in the
morning one night when I was up
319
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,080
still.
Probably should have been in
320
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,000
bed.
That was a great.
321
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,240
The idea behind that song was
like who you're like, what
322
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,640
everybody's got, they're
following something, you know,
323
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,720
you're either reading a magazine
or following little memes on
324
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,080
Facebook, learning how to live
your life based off of what
325
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,359
other people kind of push your
direction off TV commercials and
326
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,000
that shit.
Everybody needs some kind of
327
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,480
pill to make them skinnier, to
make them, you know, eat some
328
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:15,480
kind of whatever to, to bulk up,
you know, and, or mental health
329
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,280
and all that stuff.
So everybody needs some pill to
330
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,040
swallow, right, and some path to
follow.
331
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,960
And so I, I just thought it was
kind of a, it's more of a
332
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,600
concept song than anything.
But yeah, that that kind of made
333
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,920
a lot of sense.
So I tried to not mess up that
334
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,560
chorus with any crappy verses.
Now it's like, dude, I've
335
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,960
listened, I probably listened to
it 5 or 6 times before Mike came
336
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,200
on and it was, it was in the
middle of it when Mike came on.
337
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,760
Because that's the thing with
me, like I'm because I'm a
338
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,680
vocalist and a lyricist first
and foremost.
339
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,280
The first thing I attach myself
to, I look at the song name,
340
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,640
right?
So I was looking at, I was
341
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,360
looking at all your singles.
I'm like, I wonder which one is
342
00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:54,440
going to kind of catch me
because our conversation
343
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,800
yesterday was like, OK, I'm
excited to, you know, to pull up
344
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,040
some music from him.
And just the name of the song is
345
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,160
what drew me to it.
It went on me to right so.
346
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,800
That one right away, too.
Yeah.
347
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,960
So then when I listen, I was
happy when I listened to it
348
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,600
because you just, you never
know.
349
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,080
I mean, there's, there's and you
can probably, I mean, Mike and I
350
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,360
can agree.
We, we're all musicians.
351
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:15,480
So we agree to this.
You can put 12 songs out, right?
352
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,760
And and and you all think
they're badass, but in the in
353
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,120
the in the real world, you're
going to have maybe four or five
354
00:18:20,120 --> 00:18:22,480
that stand out if you're lucky,
Right, Right.
355
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,040
Because you have to breakthrough
all the barriers with the
356
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,240
people, which is why so many
artists now are just singles
357
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,320
after singles after singles,
because you just, you're trying
358
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,000
to get that niche and then, you
know, yeah, you know, get your
359
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,320
million views to make your
$10,000 Woo, you know.
360
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:41,120
But it's, it's I so my, my first
thing how you open my door and
361
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:44,080
my brain is, is the song title
and then the lyrics.
362
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,360
So as soon as, like I said, I
saw the song title, I listen to
363
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:48,800
it and I was like, fuck, that's
good, man.
364
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,280
So I listen to it again and
again and again.
365
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,360
And it's just, it's cool.
It's got a catch.
366
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:55,520
It's got a hook.
It, it's, it's, it's, it's not
367
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,480
super heavy, but it's not super
country twangy, you know?
368
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,520
So it's, I dug it, man.
It's kind of like we talked
369
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:02,800
about yesterday.
It's kind of the middle of the
370
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,840
road.
You can kind of, I could hear
371
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,240
that.
I could hear that play it on a
372
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,800
multiple of of different
stations because of of how you
373
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,160
created it and produced it.
It's not just stuck in a box.
374
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,480
How perfectly would that song
fit in a movie?
375
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,000
Yeah.
Oh, I think.
376
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,240
So, you know, just a scene where
a guy's, like, blazing down a
377
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:26,360
desert highway or something,
running away from whatever he's
378
00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:27,880
running.
I mean, I can see it in my head.
379
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,640
And here's what I'm listening to
when I hear something for the
380
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,160
first time.
Chris is listening to the
381
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:36,160
lyrics, the phrasing, your
melody I'm listening to.
382
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:41,160
Did you choose the right tempo?
How does the chord structure fit
383
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,200
with the message you're trying
to get across that opening?
384
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,520
Dave is out.
I get, I'm I, I got goosebumps
385
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,240
thinking about the way that song
started.
386
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,440
You couldn't have picked a more
perfect opening to start to
387
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,320
convey that message, in my
opinion.
388
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,400
Those are the things I'm
listening for.
389
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,320
Where did you record that at?
They deserve some kudos too.
390
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,640
Yeah, those sounds amazing.
So, so I I was hooked up with
391
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:08,000
the producer.
His name was Chaz Childers.
392
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:13,760
He's since passed, but but
Eminent music Group and and it
393
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,040
was an independent label and and
he had access to, you know,
394
00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:21,000
Nashville's and it was a
requirement to use if you're
395
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,520
going to put music out through
them.
396
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,520
The session players from, you
know, union session players.
397
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,280
So and I'm not sure about the
politics behind that, but what I
398
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,560
do know is you come back and
they've got excellent tracks and
399
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,960
they're really good about doing
the things that we were just
400
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,760
talking about.
And so anything that says Dave
401
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,440
Nudo as the artist was done that
way.
402
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:52,160
Anything that was done as Debuto
Band was with me and my friends
403
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,280
that I know locally.
So, but but anyway, yeah, so
404
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,600
those guys, they have got it
down on lock.
405
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,600
You can walk into a room.
I walked into a room with a guy
406
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:07,000
named John Connelly, Bobby
Terry, Mike Real Haas, and Dave
407
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:12,520
Francis and Kenny Royster at the
helm, the producer, and I'm
408
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,640
drawing a blank on the drummer's
name, but I showed them my
409
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,440
little demo with my little
acoustic guitar and some
410
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,960
three-part harmony multitracked,
you know, all done by me.
411
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,320
And it's this boring little
version of the song.
412
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:30,280
And in 5 minutes we're done
listening to my version done
413
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:34,920
talking about the direction of
the song and we're in isolation
414
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,200
booths.
And in 10 minutes after that,
415
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,160
the meat and potatoes of the
song is done with the, the
416
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,640
intro, you know, all that we
have left is some like extra
417
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,520
keyboard parts or extra guitar
lick, you know, solos and that
418
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,160
kind of stuff.
And then I would go back and do
419
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,080
the vocals.
But in 10 minutes, those guys
420
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,560
had the meat and potatoes done.
And in one hour this song is
421
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,840
complete.
All that's left is me to do my
422
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:06,000
vocals on it And, and for, for
the guy to, you know, produce
423
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,240
the song and mix it and master
it and all that stuff.
424
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,720
It's incredible.
It was, it was like, why haven't
425
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,960
we been doing it like this all
the time instead of spending all
426
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,880
day working on one guitar track,
you know, incredible.
427
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,000
Well, you recorded in Nashville
as well, Chris.
428
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,640
Did you have the same kind of
experience?
429
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,640
We we didn't have when we do our
Nashville recording, we didn't
430
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,240
have studio musicians.
We had our own stuff.
431
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,400
Well, I'm just talking like the
studio experience.
432
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,280
The studio is, yeah,
professionalism.
433
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,320
The first one we did, we're at
Dolly Parton Studio Gravity, and
434
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,520
that was cool because the
there's a hallway between the
435
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,560
sound booth and then where the
band plays records live and then
436
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,720
the vocal booth.
So as you're walking down that
437
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,160
hallway, the wall is filled both
sides with artists who've been
438
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:52,640
there and signed it and dated
it.
439
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,280
So obviously did that Dolly
Parton was in the building.
440
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,120
We heard her.
We didn't actually go see her or
441
00:22:58,120 --> 00:22:59,600
anything, but that was kind of
cool.
442
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,160
The second one we were and the,
the cool story about that is, is
443
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,640
Tony Migliori was the producer
and he plays piano on Bye Bye,
444
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,480
Miss American Pie.
But we went in the band set up
445
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,880
everything they started.
He said, oh, we're going to
446
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,720
record just kind of get some
levels of stuff.
447
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,920
Well, 12 hours later, we we laid
out 12.
448
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:22,600
We laid out four songs.
And by the beginning of the
449
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,040
fourth song, we only had a break
for lunch.
450
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,480
It was like an hour.
So the beginning of the fourth
451
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,080
song, he's like, all right, once
you wrap this up, we're done
452
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,520
with these four songs and we're
all kind of like, what?
453
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,120
And he's like, I've been
recording this whole thing.
454
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:34,280
So he recorded those four songs
completely live.
455
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:39,960
So I, I sang legitimately, you
know, 12 hours for the most part
456
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,160
that day, which was just
insanity.
457
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,600
And I was in vocal shape to do
it, but I didn't, I, we didn't
458
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:46,800
go in.
That was a cool thing about him.
459
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,680
We wouldn't go in thinking we're
going to bust out four songs
460
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,880
today.
It, it really was just kind of a
461
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,760
weird little dynamic because
we've never been in, in
462
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,400
Nashville, never been in that
kind of studio.
463
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:02,120
This was the last band I was in
and so it was unique in that
464
00:24:02,120 --> 00:24:04,280
fact effect.
And the second one we're at was
465
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:10,360
in Brentwood, Brentwood,
Brentwood, TN with it was, I
466
00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:13,800
want to say George Strait and
Alan Jackson's studio or, or
467
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,560
something to that effect.
I forget.
468
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,720
The Chelsea, Chelsea Music group
was in in Brentwood, TN.
469
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,320
So that was kind of cool.
We had really good interaction
470
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,960
with with the the engineers,
sound engineers and stuff.
471
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,120
They were skipping.
Oh shit, Stacey, I think her
472
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:34,440
name was super nice, super nice
couple.
473
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,120
They had me write a couple
different lyrics and they
474
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:42,000
recorded them trying to sell
them out, you know, to other
475
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,160
people and other bands stuff,
you know, that never came of it,
476
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,400
but it's still cool to have the
opportunity.
477
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,880
So it is kind of cool to kind of
walk into this really, you know,
478
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,000
intrinsic.
I know that's, that's not the
479
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,520
right word, but this really, I
don't know, the vibe is there
480
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,240
and it's and everybody that,
especially Dolly studio, right,
481
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,840
Everybody that walk through that
studio and everybody that
482
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,360
recorded there and you can just
kind of feel that aura and it's
483
00:25:01,360 --> 00:25:04,160
just, you know, it's not, it's,
you know what I mean?
484
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,920
It's kind of dark lit, but it's,
it's light enough, but it's dark
485
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,040
enough and it has an atmosphere.
And I'm at the end of the I'm at
486
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,280
the end in my vocal booth and
the band's there and then Tony's
487
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,280
all the way down to the hallway.
But it was it's, it's just
488
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:17,480
blended.
It was kind of cool.
489
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,560
It's like even though you were
separated by glass, you were
490
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,920
still, you still have the energy
and vibe that you needed, you
491
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,320
know, to feed off each other to
create tracks and stuff.
492
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,360
And even though, and there's a
funny story, we have a song
493
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:31,360
called the empty man that they
kept fucking up this part.
494
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,560
I hold that a high note for for
a period of time.
495
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,280
And every time they went to that
transition, they would they
496
00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:39,320
somebody would fuck it up the
guitar fucking up, they
497
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,000
whatever.
And so I, I burned the
498
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,960
microphone at the beginning of
the next take.
499
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,880
I'm like, stop fucking around
and get it right, man.
500
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,720
That made it that made it
through the entire editing
501
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,880
process, like the whole way.
So we're doing a radio, we're
502
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,560
doing a radio interview and the
guys we're talking and the guys
503
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,000
like, OK, what, what do you have
for us today?
504
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,560
Well, we're going to have we're
going to play empty man.
505
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,240
This is what it's about.
And they hit the button, man,
506
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,280
and there's a little bit of
silence and you all, you hear
507
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,800
dead silence in the studio.
Stop fucking around and get it
508
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,200
right, man.
And I laugh and everybody, all
509
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,800
the all the radio person are
like.
510
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:15,960
Watch.
But they by the time they
511
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,640
watered it, the music started so
they couldn't stop it.
512
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,000
So yeah, so and I totally forgot
that was there and I forgot to
513
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,840
say, hey, buffer the 1st 10
seconds because I dropped the F
514
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,200
bomb, you know?
Well, something you just said,
515
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,680
Chris, I've built 2 recording
studios.
516
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,880
Dave and I butted heads with one
of the guys that I was working
517
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,440
with because he was very
analytical, right?
518
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,920
He understood that you had to
have the right gear, the right
519
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,320
cabling, blah, blah, blah,
right?
520
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:47,280
Everything hardware wise and
software wise had to be just so.
521
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,800
But he didn't understand that
you had to create a vibe, right?
522
00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:53,400
You can't.
You can't ask a bunch of
523
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,480
musicians to come in an office
complex with fluorescent
524
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,160
lighting and feel inspired, no.
How important is it when you go
525
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,480
in a studio to feel comfortable
and create?
526
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,520
What does it take for you to
feel creative?
527
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,400
Certainly not fluorescent
lighting.
528
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:09,960
I can tell you that right now.
Thank you.
529
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,840
Yeah, I like.
And ice, kind of a dim sort of,
530
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:19,480
you know, I don't know that warm
lighting.
531
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,480
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
532
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,920
Yeah, Moody, it's got and see,
Chelsea didn't have that.
533
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,480
Chelsea was straight up like
Mike just said.
534
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,320
Chelsea was like in an office
complex.
535
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,320
You go into the you go into
round to the back and you go in
536
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,280
and it's legit.
It was just an office complex
537
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,360
built out like a studio, the
recording studio.
538
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,480
So it it didn't have the same
vibe as as Gravity, which would
539
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,040
again, this doggy parking spot
totally didn't have the same
540
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,960
vibe as that.
I surely don't want concrete
541
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,680
floors.
No concrete floors, No.
542
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,720
I wanna see some throw rugs all
over.
543
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:52,280
Maybe tapestries on the wall.
Dim lighting, nothing bright.
544
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,440
Yeah.
Yep, yeah, You know, especially
545
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,120
if you spent the night before
drinking, right?
546
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:03,520
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
547
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:04,840
A vibe.
It's got to be there.
548
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:06,360
Yeah, it's got to have a vibe,
man.
549
00:28:07,360 --> 00:28:10,040
That just caught my ear when you
said that about the first studio
550
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,160
you were in, that it had a good
vibe to it.
551
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,640
Dave said the same thing about
the studio he was in.
552
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:19,520
You know, the the feel was right
and now you can hear what that
553
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,520
does in the song that we heard
from you in that you were able
554
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,440
to not only get your emotion and
your message across, the sound
555
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,200
is just outstanding.
That's why I wanted to give
556
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,600
kudos to the studio because oh
man, they can also wreck an
557
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,400
excellent song.
You wrote a great song.
558
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:40,360
They could have ruined it by
making it sound thin or sure,
559
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,760
whatever.
You know, just the sound could
560
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,800
have ruined the brilliance of
the song.
561
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,720
Yeah, it has a very fat sound
for sure.
562
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,360
You you fill the space like
there's you're not wanting for
563
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,720
anything in that track at all.
And I had, and I haven't
564
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:53,760
listened to the rescue stuff
yet.
565
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,280
I will.
But that's the first one that I
566
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,040
did and it just kind of it
caught me.
567
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,360
Yeah, so right.
But I have I have I have your
568
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:01,440
county line 1.
I just haven't.
569
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,960
I haven't unboxed that yet, if
you will you.
570
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,160
Know, but cool.
I'm gonna Dave, and I'll report
571
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,400
back then.
All right, yeah.
572
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:13,120
County line was recorded around
in a town called Emmett ID.
573
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:19,640
So, OK, it's the production's
not the same, you know, but I
574
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,760
thought it was pretty good for
what we had at the time.
575
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,120
And I was, I was proud of it at
the time.
576
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,880
I didn't look at it.
And I mean, some of those songs
577
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:32,120
are songs that I probably will
never play live, but but some of
578
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:36,400
them are.
And and yeah, I I always kind of
579
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,480
felt weird about going to
Nashville and playing with these
580
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,920
session players.
Yeah.
581
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:46,240
But the guys that recorded on on
say the song called So far So
582
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,120
good Live in it, which I'm
pretty proud of that song.
583
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,240
Live in it and lean into me does
all right for me too.
584
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:56,360
I like that one, those 3 songs.
The guys that recorded on there
585
00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,560
have recorded on Luke Combs
albums and a bunch of other top
586
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,960
names, you know?
And the mean guitar player was
587
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,680
the the touring guitar player
for Kenny Chesney at the time,
588
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,520
at least I'm not sure what he's
doing these days.
589
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,560
But so they, yeah, they go off
tour and come in and do all that
590
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,280
work right there like that.
I kind of felt a little cheesy
591
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,320
about that, not bringing my own
band, but I had an opportunity
592
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:20,880
to open up for a guy named Colt
Ford.
593
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,160
I'm not sure if you know who he
is, but he's.
594
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,400
Oh yeah, I know.
Colt Ford.
595
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,480
Yeah.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
596
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,120
So he was a.
Little Chad neck man.
597
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:31,080
Oh.
Yeah, so I was talking, I was
598
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,240
talking with his touring
guitarist and, and telling him
599
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,440
what I had just gone and done in
Nashville.
600
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,840
And he says, oh, yeah, man.
I asked, did you?
601
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,280
Are you a session player?
He goes, Yeah, he goes.
602
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,240
I even played on one of Colt
Ford's songs and I'm like, so
603
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,560
you don't go into the studio
with your band it none of them
604
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,320
do.
And yeah, a lot better about
605
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,520
that at that point.
So yeah, they're all mix and
606
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,520
match, and whoever gets on what
album depends on who's available
607
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,760
that day, I guess.
I used to kind of feel weird
608
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,680
about that too.
Like I never wanted anybody to
609
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,520
have any kind of outside
influence on what I was doing
610
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,640
unless they were in the band,
right?
611
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,960
You know, I respect Chris.
I respected Scott, Rick, those
612
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,640
are the only opinions I wanted.
Yeah, that's so stupid.
613
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:24,320
Because at the end of the day,
what we need to do is get
614
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,720
Chris's message across to the
audience right in a.
615
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,080
Format.
Other otherwise, he's reading
616
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,840
poetry.
He want, he wants.
617
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,080
A song?
Yep.
618
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:39,000
So the idea is to get Dave and
Chris's lyrics idea across in a
619
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,880
musical format.
It doesn't matter how that
620
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,440
happens.
Absolutely.
621
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:44,760
Because we're all still
involved.
622
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,520
There's two of the Colt Ford
albums on my playlist.
623
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:48,760
Cool.
Right on.
624
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,520
Yeah, yeah, he's.
Yeah.
625
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,800
He's chicken and chicken and
biscuits, man.
626
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,000
Yeah.
I mean, you could go at it from
627
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,160
a purist perspective.
I did when I was young guy.
628
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,480
I I'm not, I want creative
control over everything.
629
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,680
We're going to sing the words we
want to sing.
630
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,360
We're going to play them the
guitars the way we want to play
631
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,120
them.
And it's like, well, there's a
632
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:16,840
reason that those guys are like
top 200 and higher on the
633
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,200
country Billboard charts, right?
It's not because they're
634
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,560
purists.
It's because they no, there's a
635
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,600
way to do things and they know
how to do it and they do a damn
636
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,120
fine job at it.
So Yep, here we are.
637
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,400
Understand who their audience is
and what they wanna hear.
638
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,680
That's what you absolutely.
Yeah, absolutely.
639
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,800
And for those of you, for those
of you watching and gonna
640
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:43,960
eventually listen,
daveunoband.com is is his page.
641
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,880
I have it up here.
Has all kinds of stuff home used
642
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,120
to contact us about.
There's actually, there's Dave
643
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,120
and the boys.
You know, that's that's a great
644
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,120
picture.
That's fucking Dave.
645
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,040
It's a cool picture.
It is a great picture.
646
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:59,600
Photo Look up Tim Schmidt Photo.
Shout out to Tim Schmidt, OK?
647
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,560
Tim Schmidt, SCHMIDTI.
DT.
648
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,760
He's one of my best friends from
high school, but we're still in.
649
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,440
That's a close contact too.
Yeah, that guy does.
650
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,240
So yeah, he, he created that.
I'm just sitting there pointing
651
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,680
at a camera that the whole I
don't look like that.
652
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,000
Just, you know, that's all I'm
doing.
653
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,000
And he makes it.
You do right live.
654
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,760
Yeah, yeah.
And you're, so you got a show.
655
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,000
You got a show coming up
Saturday, September 27th in
656
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,440
Astoria, OR Yep, Yep.
And that's.
657
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,640
My my old stomping grounds over
there too.
658
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,760
OK, cool.
Kind of where I grew up.
659
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,640
Dinner and concert with Dave
Nice.
660
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,280
There's there's some action
shot.
661
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,280
Is this is this from your buddy
Tim or is this just somebody
662
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,880
else on the road taking pics?
Those are, yeah, just kind of
663
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,640
pictures taken from probably a
cell phone.
664
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,400
Look, Dave, yeah, your look is.
Out you have the look like
665
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,960
straight up dude, you got the
look for for what?
666
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:52,920
But think about it, so many
artists you.
667
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:54,760
You hate when you have there
too.
668
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,400
That's a huge point, Chris.
Yeah, when you hear, when you
669
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,520
hear somebody singing right and
then, and then you, you radio
670
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,200
Sirius, whatever.
And then all of a sudden you go
671
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,800
home and you Google that then
and it's like, oh, that's what?
672
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,800
Oh, really?
Oh you, you have the look to
673
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,960
back the sound man.
All right.
674
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:11,760
Awesome.
Well, thank you.
675
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,080
I mean that's I would say nobody
that was on purpose.
676
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,040
Well, I know, but yeah, that's
gotta be, yeah.
677
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,440
I always say nobody wants to go
to a concert and see their dad
678
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,000
up there playing music, right?
You don't want to see it or
679
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,000
their up shirt.
Or their teacher or something.
680
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:33,440
Yeah, yeah, I don't, I don't
never show up at a gig as if I
681
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,520
just got off work and and came
came over, you know, Right,
682
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:38,600
Right.
I thought that was pretty
683
00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:41,080
valuable lesson.
Representation as well.
684
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,280
Yeah.
Absolutely, Absolutely.
685
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,840
If you're going to be larger
than life, you got to be larger
686
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,960
than life.
Yeah, you do.
687
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,280
You got to own it, man.
You got to have the.
688
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,520
Presents.
When I go to the grocery store,
689
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,280
this is what I look like.
When I go set up my gear, this
690
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,160
is what I look like.
I call him this guy Dave's
691
00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,480
Roadie.
So.
692
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,440
And then I'll, I'll go change my
hat and put on my glasses and
693
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,440
oh, shit.
Dave Noodles here.
694
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,600
All right, Yeah.
No, it, it worked, though.
695
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,920
You got to have you got to have
like Mike was big when we, when
696
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:16,840
he put together the band that we
were in, he, he was, the looks
697
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,080
were important because back then
it was the early 90s.
698
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:20,800
So it's all about about the
look.
699
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,440
And do you have like he he had
long hair.
700
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,400
Scott had long hair.
I ironically was in a play.
701
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,720
My bald cap ripped so I shaved
my head.
702
00:35:27,720 --> 00:35:28,960
Shut up.
The one day to practice my head
703
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,080
shaved.
Unbeknownst to my ignorance of
704
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,800
of me, I was wearing red and
black flannel shirts with Doc
705
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,720
Martens and a completely shaved
head.
706
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:40,240
In like 1994.
And, you know, living, living
707
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:43,200
with a black dude as my roommate
who is all into Louis Farrakhan
708
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:44,720
and shit.
So imagine us walking down the
709
00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:50,400
street, Dave.
But but so it was great.
710
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:53,480
And then we got we got typecast
for one of our shows.
711
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,560
They put us with a Skinhead kind
of thing because oh really?
712
00:35:57,920 --> 00:35:59,560
And we were the heard this thing
from that.
713
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,320
But you know, we were accepted
because the way I looked, you
714
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,840
know, sure, because I owned the
stage, I had the presence, I
715
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,640
knew how to work the crowd and
shit, which we won't go into the
716
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,960
story because they told 1000 of
times, but you know, I, I filled
717
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,760
the void for a singer they had
that that just wouldn't perform
718
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,840
on stage in front of a crowd.
That's another thing.
719
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,240
You can't just stand still while
you sing your songs anymore.
720
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,680
No, I mean you can.
Sometimes you can get away with
721
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,440
it a little.
Bit straight and get George yeah
722
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:29,160
yeah George Strait can get away
with it Alan Jackson getting
723
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,720
away with it but you know Dave
Mustaine gets away with it but I
724
00:36:32,720 --> 00:36:36,000
I lose interest if you just I
just.
725
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,560
Hands in one hand in a pocket,
one hand on the mic.
726
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,240
Yeah, yeah.
I'm like, you're feeling it.
727
00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:45,960
So show the world you feel it,
you know?
728
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,600
Yeah, it's but to each his own
though.
729
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,120
But that's, you know.
But I agree with you.
730
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,160
If, if for me, if the singer's
not entertaining, I'm not, I'm
731
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,920
not.
I'm not going past him to the
732
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,080
band.
Right.
733
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,960
Chris literally would not take
no for an answer from any crowd
734
00:36:59,960 --> 00:37:03,240
that ever stood in front of him.
No, if he asked them a question
735
00:37:03,240 --> 00:37:06,880
and he and he got crickets.
He was like, I'm not going to
736
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,800
quit asking this question until
I get some kind of response and
737
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:13,240
and not in those words.
But he had a very good way of
738
00:37:13,240 --> 00:37:16,720
just asking that same question
until people were like, oh, he
739
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:18,600
wants us to participate.
Yeah, right.
740
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,760
I used to give away.
I used to give away pictures of
741
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,120
beer.
I I used to give away pictures
742
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:24,720
of beer, Dave.
So I'd ask people.
743
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,800
The first time I ever did, I was
like, who wants a free pitch of
744
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,000
your beer?
Crickets.
745
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,320
And I was like, I don't think
you heard me.
746
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,400
The loudest motherfucker who
raises their hand when I say,
747
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,960
who wants a free pitch of beer?
You get a pitch of your beer.
748
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,800
I already paid for it. 123.
Who wants a free pitch of beer?
749
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,880
And then everybody's like, what?
So that's the point where I just
750
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,720
had like, OK, right there.
And then we were.
751
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:48,680
Right.
So I I think I did that six or
752
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,440
seven times at that venue and
then they finally killed me.
753
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:51,520
He's like, dude, you can't do
that.
754
00:37:51,720 --> 00:37:53,440
Like you don't have an all 21
show.
755
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,720
You have to stop.
I'm like, really?
756
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:58,360
Oh, I'm going to.
Remember.
757
00:37:59,720 --> 00:38:01,440
Yeah, so.
But it's a cool little bit,
758
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,280
because who doesn't want a free
beer?
759
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,480
Right.
We found a work around then you
760
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:07,720
just had Nikki go by.
Yeah.
761
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,360
Yeah, yeah.
My wife just ended up buying the
762
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,040
beer.
And you made sure they were 21,
763
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,040
you know, but it's still that
was amazed the first time, Dave,
764
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,760
you asked the question.
It's like it's OK.
765
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,200
You know, the funniest night.
And I just thought of this the
766
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,640
other day because I was thinking
of you doing that, giving away
767
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,400
T-shirts and bumper stickers and
beers.
768
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,880
And remember the night we were
playing with Sacred Reich and
769
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,320
nobody, You're like, who's here
to see Sacred Reich?
770
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,160
And nobody said anything.
And you were like Chris said,
771
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,640
you all know that the guy
running sound plays rhythm
772
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,960
guitar in the band you came to
see, right?
773
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,600
So then he got kind of 1/2
lukewarm response the second
774
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,040
time.
And he says, Jason, feel free to
775
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:51,160
kick all their asses because
literally their rhythm guitar
776
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,160
player was our sound man.
So he was right there.
777
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,960
Right on.
Well, I know this whenever.
778
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,520
That.
Yeah, whenever I get a mediocre
779
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,880
response when I'm on a
microphone and I'd say like
780
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,680
something like how we all doing
tonight or whatever, you know,
781
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,840
just trying to get get a little
rise out of the crowd and a
782
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:14,360
little soft, kind of like woo.
I'm like, oh, right.
783
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,600
So what I figured out is if you
say it again with a little bit
784
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,320
more conviction, a little
louder, people start realizing
785
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,560
that, oh, oh, he was talking to
us.
786
00:39:24,240 --> 00:39:27,520
So then you get the big cheer
from the crowd that that's the
787
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,360
the bitch about playing in bars
and stuff like that.
788
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,440
I'm I'm glad that I have the
opportunity to do bigger things
789
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,320
than that, but I love playing in
the bars too.
790
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,560
It's a lot of fun, as long as
everybody knows what they're.
791
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,800
There for somewhere, Yeah,
right.
792
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,960
Well, and, and when they know
that you're there to really
793
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,920
perform for them, it's a
different thing than just some
794
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,440
band in the background making
noise while we're over here
795
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,840
visiting with our friends or
whatever, you know, So, and I, I
796
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,760
have a couple of songs like like
so far so good that I wrote.
797
00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:00,400
The reason I wrote it, called it
So Far So Good is because
798
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,680
everybody knows that phrase.
And so my job is to get
799
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,440
everybody to say it at the
shows.
800
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:10,240
And I do, and sometimes it takes
a few takes a couple of tries to
801
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:13,000
get everybody on board, but I
always get them.
802
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:14,480
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
803
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,480
It does, and there's nothing
better than that man having the
804
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:18,960
crowd sing back to you where
you're telling.
805
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,640
Hell yeah, that.
Absolutely.
806
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,520
That to me is is the greatest
moment of every time I was ever
807
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,000
on stage.
If I got the crowd to sing
808
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,280
something back to me.
Yep.
809
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,000
Right.
That was my when, when I decided
810
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,920
I wanted to get into the music
world, that was my thing.
811
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,480
I wanted to be standing, you
know, in front of a venue like
812
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:37,920
Madison, the Square Garden and
just kind of step back and have
813
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,680
people sing back to me.
Never happened, but it's still
814
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:43,680
what we we approached every show
like this is it.
815
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,120
This is the last time we're
playing.
816
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,680
So there was never, there was
never that, oh shit, we're
817
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,640
playing this song for the
thousandth time or the five
818
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,200
thousandth time.
It wasn't like that with us.
819
00:40:51,240 --> 00:40:54,640
Like our whole purpose once we
got on the stage was like, we're
820
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,880
going to win this crowd over
because they're a new crowd.
821
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,400
We had the ability to open up
for everybody from Marshall
822
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,240
Tucker Band to Sacred Right to.
You know Tony McAlpine, Pat
823
00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:06,600
Travers, right?
Just LA Gong.
824
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,680
Yeah, $7.00.
Yeah, I mean, just because we
825
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,040
had, we were that song you heard
for the for the show that we
826
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,680
started, that's one of our songs
called Freeman.
827
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,360
Oh, OK, right on.
And we wrote that 30 years ago,
828
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,800
and it's still can still be
played today, yeah.
829
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:23,720
Love it.
Yeah.
830
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:26,320
That's the cool thing about
music, man.
831
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,320
It's just it's timeless, the
test of time.
832
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,120
And it's a it's a common thread.
Like, you know, we don't know
833
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,480
you from Adam, and we've had a
conversation for 50 minutes all
834
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,240
about music and it's like we're
brothers.
835
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,520
You know, absolutely that's.
Been the beauty of music my
836
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,200
whole life, man.
Once you find out you have that
837
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:45,320
common ground.
Like Chris just said, instantly
838
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,240
we were all three on the same
page.
839
00:41:47,240 --> 00:41:49,800
We just met you, you know, less
than an hour ago.
840
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,360
Yeah, Yep.
But that's because you've been
841
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,320
doing music for 25 years. him
and I have been doing it for 30
842
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,680
plus years.
When you have that kind of
843
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:02,880
dedication put into anything,
you really have respect for
844
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:04,960
anyone that does anything at
that level.
845
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,760
Not just music, you know, any
kind of art construction,
846
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,800
whatever is yours.
What I like to call skill set.
847
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,080
Yeah.
Right When you put that 10,000
848
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:17,520
hours into it and then you
become a master, you have
849
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,720
appreciation for anybody that
can do that, Yeah.
850
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,040
Absolutely, yeah.
Unspoken respect.
851
00:42:23,240 --> 00:42:26,760
Immediately, the guy that taught
me to play gave me that lesson
852
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:31,680
that he just talked about.
Probably maybe in the first year
853
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:35,240
I was taking lessons when I
first started to be able to play
854
00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:38,760
a song.
He's like, every time you pick
855
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,720
up your guitar, play like it's
the last time you're ever going
856
00:42:41,720 --> 00:42:43,640
to play, because eventually it
will be.
857
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,720
Right, so.
What he meant was don't put 1/2
858
00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:49,520
hearted effort into it, ever.
Whether you're practicing or
859
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,600
whether you're standing in front
of 60,000 people, you play the
860
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,120
same way every time.
Yeah, absolutely.
861
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:58,160
And when I'm feeling like I'm
not playing well, it's always
862
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,640
because I'm not putting enough
effort into it, you know?
863
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,840
Right.
Yeah, I kind of approach the
864
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,800
singing too, that way.
Like I'm not gonna half ass it
865
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:10,720
at a show.
I'm gonna put all I've got into
866
00:43:10,720 --> 00:43:13,000
it every time.
And it doesn't matter if they're
867
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,520
even if five people or 4000
people, right, They all get the
868
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,880
so far so good treatment.
Yeah, that was.
869
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:22,880
Awesome.
And I I learned I learned that
870
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,280
from watching the documentary on
mother love bone Precious
871
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,160
Andrew.
All right, you know, just bummer
872
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,000
that the dude's dead, but.
Yeah, absolutely.
873
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,600
Yeah.
That that Andrew would to me
874
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:39,280
epitomized a lead singer and and
one of one of the many singers
875
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:40,840
that I kind of like.
Oh, agreed.
876
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,400
But he approached every single
show, whether like you said,
877
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:47,080
whether it's five people or
5000, he's in an arena.
878
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,600
I'm, I'm in front of, I'm in
front of 5000 people, whatever.
879
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,360
And his mindset was I'm playing
in front of a sold out crowd at
880
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,960
the biggest venue possible.
And I'm making sure everybody in
881
00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,000
this venue hears me and it gets
the same experience.
882
00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:00,960
Kind of like you and I were
talking yesterday how Garth
883
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,720
Brooks approach things in his
heyday, right where he'd go up
884
00:44:03,720 --> 00:44:06,320
to the to the top of the stadium
and look down at the crowd.
885
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,840
He's like, I got to figure out
how this person up here can feel
886
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:10,880
me all the way down there.
Right.
887
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,240
That's a unique, that's a unique
skill set for a singer to be
888
00:44:14,240 --> 00:44:15,720
able to do that.
But you have to be able to do
889
00:44:15,720 --> 00:44:18,760
that to get people in into what
you're doing because that
890
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,000
equates to the sales and the
success and the, and the
891
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,040
merchandise and all the things
that come along with it.
892
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,120
But I mean, and so it's it's
it's not an easy thing to do
893
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,080
because there's lots of bands
out there.
894
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,840
We talked about they just will
stand there and sing.
895
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:31,840
There's no man engaged.
You're not excited.
896
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:33,320
It's like, yeah, come on, man,
come on.
897
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,240
You know, you know, and you
know, one hit wonders on 12
898
00:44:36,240 --> 00:44:37,880
track albums.
It's like, what the fuck?
899
00:44:38,720 --> 00:44:41,160
We got like 10 minutes.
We got, we got like 10 minutes
900
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:42,200

I want to share, man.
Let's go.
934
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,360
Stupid thing.
I thought I would share the
935
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:15,680
pages with me as I was moving.
No, you got to do it each tab.
936

So that's kind of cool.
That was a cool.
941
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:30,480
This is all his concept too.
I mean, I don't really read
942
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,880
Louis Lamar books and I don't
smoke cigars.
943
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:34,640
I mean, I'll drink the whiskey,
but.
944
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:39,240
Don't tell people that, Dave.
He's the artist on that picture.

Yeah, yeah.
Tim's going Don't give away all

Yeah, Where where's that taken
at?
957

That's an excellent picture.
Oh, yeah, we, we, we, we played
958
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:16,280
at the Treeport Music Hall last
year and sold the tickets for
959
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:19,080
all of that down here in Boise.
And, and boy, that stage is
960
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:20,560
killer.
I mean, look at those lights.
961
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:21,440
Those are amazing.
Yeah.
962
00:47:21,720 --> 00:47:24,840
Yeah, that looks beautiful, man.
And there's other ones from that
963
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,640
that are totally different color
scheme that just looked
964
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,000
phenomenal.
So whoever's running the lights
965
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,920
down there at Treeport Music
Halls got they got it on the
966
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,520
lock.
Kudo.
967
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:36,880
We had some really cool pictures
coming out of that.
968
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,400
Yeah, yeah, that's a cool venue.
Right on.
969
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,200
Yeah, so I kind of just told
everybody where to find you.
970
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,320
We got about 5 minutes left.
Anything else you want to say
971
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,080
before I wrap this up and you
get on with your day?
972
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,920
Check out Vela Cheetah.
It looks like Vela.
973
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,160
How do you spell that VEL it?
Looks like velocity.
974
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,200
Right.
Yeah, it's not really pronounced
975
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,120
the way it's said.
So what's the last four letters
976
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,040
on it?
CSCITA.
977
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:08,520
Yeah, Bella cheated with Bruce
Gambino and and Russ Allen is
978
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,360
his partner and Russ Allen is
the dude that kind of founded
979
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,640
Symphony X and he started
Adrenaline Mob and boy, that
980
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:20,600
guy, I didn't realize who I was
dealing with when I heard the
981
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:22,920
name Russ Allen.
That guy's got one of the most
982
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:26,360
killer singing voices on the
face of the planet and, and
983
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:31,600
apparently quite a, a hell of a
work ethic.
984
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,480
So I'm I'm in good hands with
these guys and Bruce Gambino
985
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:39,760
and, and yeah, Bella Cheetah.
I'm looking forward to all the
986
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:42,240
things that that are coming up
real soon.
987
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,680
That's awesome.
Yeah, Bruce, Bruce.
988
00:48:44,720 --> 00:48:46,520
Bruce is good people, man.
He's he.
989
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,760
I sent him a Facebook message,
dude.
990
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,680
That's how I found him.
And it took him a while.
991
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,080
He took him a while.
I'm going to share this.
992
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,200
It took him a while to get back
to me because obviously he's
993
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,480
busy.
But, you know, same thing, the
994
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:02,880
common thread of music.
I consider him a friend because,
995
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,720
I mean, we've had conversations
last an hour or more and it's
996
00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:08,680
all talking about music and
musicians.
997
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:10,480
Yeah, that's his.
That's his.
998
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:12,480
That's his LinkedIn.
That's his LinkedIn page.
999
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:13,760
Oh.

00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:15,400

I wanted, yeah.
Yeah, he's a hell of a nice guy.
1003
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:23,360
And yeah, like you said, you can
get in a conversation for quite
1004
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,760
a while with that guy.
He's about as friendly as they
1005
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,560
get.
Also, he's a hard working dude
1006
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:32,640
and he's got a lot of ambition.
And I'm, I'm really, I feel like
