00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,800

going on in your guys world and

53
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,560
Yeah, you you want to start?
Sure.
54
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,760
Well, my version of it would be.
Shorter.
55
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,200
Go ahead, Brian.
I'm a California kid.
56
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,480
He's Oklahoma boy.
So I came out here a couple
57
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:49,440
years ago to Tulsa and I love
the music community here.
58
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,360
Dave and I met in a Led Zeppelin
tribute band.
59
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,920
Sweet.
Out here in Tulsa, let's
60
00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:59,600
Zeppelin.
So I was the new Robert Plant
61
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,720
and he was the new Jimmy Page.
And that's how we met about a
62
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,560
year ago.
Actually, that's really a year
63
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,000
and a half ago.
My favorite band for the record.
64
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,400
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
My top 3 for sure.
65
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,880
Can't get enough of Zeppelin
man.
66
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:19,560
Zeppelin and yes, so that's how
we met and I was a new kid in
67
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,240
town and Dave has been, you
know, he's been playing guitar
68
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,880
around for a long time.
So we just kind of he and I hit
69
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,880
it off.
We just kind of we just really
70
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,680
hit it off and then Dave had
some songs that he needed some
71
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,360
vocals on.
So I put my vocals on, we went
72
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,760
in the studio, I put my vocals
on some of these songs.
73
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,320
And he's he's been writing a
lot.
74
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,000
So we've got a lot, lots of
songs.
75
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,320
We got about 12 songs now almost
in the can.
76
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:54,360
So we've just been, you know,
figuring out what to do and
77
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,240
figure out what to do with those
songs.
78
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,440
And I'm glad that Bruce and
Villa Cheetah likes them and
79
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,440
everybody else that's listened
to them seems to like them.
80
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,000
So I think, you know, I really.
Like the two that you sent us,
81
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,240
man, they were.
Well, Duvall.
82
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,960
Dave Duvall.
I'm going to call him Duvall
83
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,560
because the band is Duvall.
He doesn't know how not to write
84
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,200
a hit.
Oh, right on.
85
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,320
So we've got. 12 No pressure,
Dave, No pressure.
86
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,320
Man.
Can I tell you what I told
87
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,399
Chris?
Oh, nothing.
88
00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:23,840
And see what you guys's reaction
is I.
89
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,400
I've been in, you know, many
bands since I was 14 years old.
90
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,840
And Dave's been in many bands.
But when I heard, when Dave just
91
00:04:30,840 --> 00:04:35,080
started playing me some of the
songs that, well, he wrote, I
92
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,680
was like, I like every one of
them.
93
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:43,200
And that's very unusual to like
every song that's thrown at you
94
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,480
right after you meet somebody.
So there was a connection, you
95
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,840
know, immediately.
And we've been in the studio
96
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:52,440
working on these songs and I'm
excited about them.
97
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,640
And that's where we're at right
now.
98
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,320
That's where we're at.
So yeah.
99
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:57,120
We.
My.
100
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,000
First time I he was such a great
singer.
101
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,400
Well, we, we literally showed up
to to 1st Led Zeppelin
102
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,520
rehearsal, his first rehearsal,
my first rehearsal.
103
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,400
And it's like, who the heck are
you?
104
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,240
Who that you know anyway.
But yeah, we didn't know each
105
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,680
other and but it was after that
first, you know, we just only
106
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,920
have one or two rehearsals than
we did a show.
107
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,120
Yeah, we don't rehearse that
much.
108
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,600
We make that a rule that we
don't.
109
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:30,120
And we did a show together, but
we kind of, we kind of had a
110
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,040
report on stage really, you
know, like, yeah.
111
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,120
Not just as Robert Plant and
Jimmy Page, we had a Duval,
112
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,560
Brian, Phil Miller kind of thing
happening at the same it was
113
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,600
happening and so so it was a
cool thing to happen, you know,
114
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,400
but.
I was I was kind of stuck dead
115
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,480
in the water far as you know,
original material.
116
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,840
I meet Brian.
He's the perfect voice for the
117
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,640
for those for that, the song.
It's just a, it's just, we just
118
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,400
got lucky with the the, the
right persona, right voice, the
119
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,800
the songs, the yeah and, and,
and we got money, money Anderson
120
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,040
on bass and Trey Barnes on
drums.
121
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,360
And I've known Trey for a long,
I've known money even longer
122
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:18,560
anyway, so I introduced Brian to
them and, and it's just been
123
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,160
going click, click, click ever
since.
124
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,400
All we have to do we only time
we get slowed down, we have to
125
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,320
wait for like how studios are.
We have to wait for mixing and
126
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,440
mastering and you know we have
to get in line and that's yeah
127
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:37,360
just chomping at the that's what
we're doing right now song but
128
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,480
but but we are shot telling
about the EP Yeah yeah so we are
129
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,400
but we do that six that are
mastered and and want to go out
130
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,600
on an EP just to kind of like a.
5 or 6.
131
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,920
Yeah, yeah, 5 or 6, yeah, 5
where something like that.
132
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,040
The magic number is yeah.
So, Bruce I.
133
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,800
Think I think the I think the
magic number for EPS is 8.
134
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,040
I think it's 85 on an EP.
Is it 85?
135
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,440
It's 55.
I think it's.
136
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,800
No EP.
Mike says it's 5M, says it's 55.
137
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,320
Is what?
5 and I'm fine and buy it, yeah.
138
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,400
Yeah, Mike says. 5 Now when we
release the album, it'll
139
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,560
probably have 12 micros.
Yeah, sure.
140
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,840
Like that, sure.
And then we got a bunch of other
141
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,760
material for like, I'm after
that.
142
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,440
Oh yeah.
But all those songs?
143
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,200
We got pretty much, we got
physical graffiti written.
144
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,200
Yeah, all.
Right, we'll have to roll it
145
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,240
out.
We'll have to.
146
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,360
Roll it out in increments, you
know.
147
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:26,880
Yeah, right.
Yeah, that's cool.
148
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,960
Yeah.
So by the way, that's a really
149
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,880
good problem to have to have too
many songs it is to choose from.
150
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,160
Oh agreed agreed.
So MM wanted to make a comment
151
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,280
earlier about something you said
about songwriting.
152
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,200
Well, something that Dave just
said that you say all the time
153
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,240
too is the chemistry.
If there's no, it doesn't
154
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,000
matter.
You can put the think about all
155
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,680
the Super groups that have been
put together.
156
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,520
That is everything.
Chemistry is nothing.
157
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,480
Well, absolutely is to have the
the guys that are all kind of on
158
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,360
the same page musically, you
know.
159
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:06,200
By the way, what you just said,
Mike, that is there's no secret
160
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,120
formula as you know in this
industry.
161
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:14,200
However, if you look at the
iconic bands that are still
162
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:22,720
going, the Stones, Aerosmith,
ACDC, regardless of who is in
163
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,880
the band right now, the original
guys that started that that, you
164
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:33,360
know, that musical journey all
had chemistry and it's something
165
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,559
that gets talked about.
But you can't manufacture that.
166
00:08:37,039 --> 00:08:41,000
You can't create chemistry.
It's been tried before by many a
167
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,919
record label and it doesn't
work.
168
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,840
Sometimes it works, but it
doesn't last.
169
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,560
So chemistry is absolutely
everything.
170
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,800
And you know, they say image is
everything.
171
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,120
Well, images is a lot too.
But, but if you don't have, like
172
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,640
you said, you can put four of
the most talented people in a
173
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:05,960
room, musicians, and if they, if
one chink in that armor doesn't
174
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,760
work with the other three, it
will not work.
175
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:14,080
You know, I had a pretty high
profile audition for STP and
176
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:22,240
Dragon Force and Velt Revolver.
Now, because of who I am, I
177
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,200
probably shot myself in the
foot.
178
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,320
But what I said was to some of
these guys that I was
179
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:34,920
auditioning for is I don't want
to be your former singer because
180
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,160
I can't be your former singer
because you guys had the
181
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,240
chemistry.
So if I'm going to be the new
182
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:48,840
guy fronting your band, I got to
be me, and I know who me is and
183
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,680
if.
That's a point that Chris always
184
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,000
makes.
Yeah.
185
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,720
He's always careful to say, and
I am too.
186
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,320
We're not the best musicians in
the world, but when you put the
187
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,440
four of us in a room together,
something magical.
188
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:02,400
Happened.
There's something.
189
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,400
He's the singer and the voice
for the band Nemesis, right?
190
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,960
That's and that's all we ever
professed to be.
191
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,480
He didn't profess to be, you
know, I'm the next Jeff Tate or
192
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,120
I'm the next Robert Plan or, you
know, he's like, I'm the next
193
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,080
Chris Dunham because that's who
I am, right?
194
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,000
There you go.
Before I forget to make my point
195
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,640
when you guys sent us those
songs.
196
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,480
And it's even more cool now
because knowing that you guys
197
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,200
are into the same kind of old
school music that I was.
198
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,120
I don't know if this is going to
be a compliment or this is just
199
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,560
my first impression, but.
We'll take it as a.
200
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,640
Your music is almost like the
Romantics and the Talking Heads
201
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,400
had a baby.
Oh my God, yeah, that is so
202
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,160
dude.
OK, so wait, what I'm going to
203
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,840
do, I'm going to tell you.
I'm going to tell you what songs
204
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,360
Bruce sent us before you respond
to that.
205
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,240
And that's so cool in my opinion
because I I love both those
206
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,120
bands of Talking Heads,
especially because what talented
207
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,400
musicians.
So Bruce, hold on, hold on, hold
208
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,160
on.
So Bruce sent us Mary, Bruce
209
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,320
sent us Mary.
Go round and he sent us.
210
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,720
Come knock on my door.
OK Oh, both off again.
211
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,680
Oh wow, I didn't know he was.
Going to that.
212
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,200
Was well, yeah, no.
Signal this one.
213
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,040
Personal favorites.
So The thing is.
214
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,280
It's funny.
For a long time I got
215
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,760
pigeonholed as a heavy metal
singer maybe about 15 years ago
216
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,000
because I was doing some metal
things.
217
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,360
But I don't like to call myself
a heavy metal singer.
218
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,720
I just, I just call myself a
rock'n'roll singer.
219
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,360
I don't either.
You know, and I'm fans of all
220
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,000
music.
I mean, we grew up with all this
221
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,640
great music and I yeah,
absolutely.
222
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,440
So, you know, talking about
chemistry and talking about the
223
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,240
writing process and talking
about, you know, all these
224
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,720
things.
It's it's funny that my buddy
225
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,120
Sean, I'm going to give a shout
out to Sean son and Shine.
226
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:55,200
He plays in the band Trapped and
he he showed.
227
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,400
I love you.
Yeah, when he heard, when he
228
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,160
heard Aelia, another song that
we have, he called me and he
229
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:06,040
goes, dude, it's like the police
and the Knack had a bait.
230
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,320
And I'm like, wow, So what, you
just the clash, wasn't it?
231
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,840
No, he said the police.
He said the police and the
232
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,840
Knack.
You know my Sharona, so it's
233
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,560
funny.
Because you just.
234
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:21,080
Said you just said, you know,
it's like the talking.
235
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,640
And the romantic kind of.
Thing so I had to just laugh
236
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,800
about that because.
It's at first I told him the
237
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,280
Talking Heads, but we opened up
for the Romantics and they had
238
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,920
so many songs that I had
forgotten about other than
239
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,280
talking in your.
Sleep right.
240
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,160
I've done so I've done so many
shows with Mike Skill.
241
00:12:38,560 --> 00:12:42,080
I I was in a band called the
Famous Faces up in Portland, OR
242
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,960
and we, we did many shows with
Mike Skill and he's just an
243
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,520
amazing guy.
Yeah.
244
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,440
And and we love the romantics
so.
245
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,760
Yeah, when they started jamming,
I was like, wow, you know, I'm
246
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,280
into the deep cuts, the songs
that nobody listens to, right?
247
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,600
And yeah, they played obviously
all their hits, but then they
248
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,480
started playing a lot of this
just straight ahead, rock'n'roll
249
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:04,440
stuff.
And I'm like, what an
250
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,760
outstanding band.
Oh man, that's when you really
251
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,120
find out how good a band is,
when you damn right into the
252
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,400
deep cuts.
And so often when it's a great
253
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,840
band like that, you, you, you
find out.
254
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,880
That's how you find out how good
they are, you know?
255
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,800
Dave and I just had this
conversation yesterday about the
256
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,000
romantics.
So it's really certainly.
257
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,560
Good, you lie.
You brought that up.
258
00:13:27,560 --> 00:13:29,360
That is very funny because we
just.
259
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,440
I could tell the genuine
reaction you guys just had to my
260
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,200
comments, so that's awesome.
And I'm going to throw you
261
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:41,240
another, you know, bone sidebar.
I I had no idea when we're
262
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,600
recording these songs.
I wasn't thinking about any of
263
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,360
those bands.
I wasn't.
264
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,000
Find it though.
No, but you, you don't try.
265
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,680
We we're the same way.
You don't write music to sound
266
00:13:51,680 --> 00:13:53,920
like somebody else.
You write music that pleases you
267
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,840
and it's tied you emotionally in
some way, shape and form.
268
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,040
Because you're like me, Brian.
I write all the lyrics and the
269
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,360
melodies and stuff.
Mike does all the takes, all
270
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,440
that, and then runs with it.
But you, you and Mike, and I've
271
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,400
talked about it before with with
Nemesis anyway, when every song
272
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:12,160
we played, Mike would sit back
there and he could tell I was I
273
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,760
was becoming that song because
every song I wrote had a purpose
274
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,200
in life and had a was, you know
what I mean?
275
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,840
So he's made the common couple
shows ago that he could see my
276
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,160
character for each song.
So you don't go into a studio,
277
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,440
you don't write music and think,
oh, this is going to be like the
278
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,080
romantics or this is going to be
like the talking Heads.
279
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,920
You know, you just have that,
that that influence, I think
280
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,600
just comes through naturally
because that's that's what you
281
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,200
grew up on and that's what
you're drawn to.
282
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,640
And so that just comes comes
across on some level anyway.
283
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,560
I'm.
I'm very lucky.
284
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:47,080
Yeah, I'm very lucky as a singer
because I got a guitar player
285
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,680
who he he.
I don't want to know what Dave's
286
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:55,520
process is, just like, I don't
really like talking about my
287
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,840
process.
I have, I have guys that come up
288
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,200
and go, how do you sing?
How do you sing like that?
289
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,360
How do you do that thing?
How do you channel Robert Plant?
290
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,400
I'm like, you know what, I love
you.
291
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,160
Thanks for coming to the show.
That's private.
292
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,800
That is my personal thing.
I don't like to talk about the
293
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,720
process because I feel like I'm
going to.
294
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,920
It's kind of like a holy thing
where you don't, you don't want
295
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,480
to talk about that because it's
kind of like it's personal for
296
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,200
one thing.
And two, you know, I just feel
297
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,560
like if I talk about it, I'm
messing with the muse a little
298
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,960
too much.
That's why I don't like that's
299
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,480
why I don't like bands telling
people what their songs are
300
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,320
about.
See what the what the actual
301
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,280
with the actual like I've told
I've said it before when when
302
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,280
Draymond dropped the bomb on the
sickness from the disturbed song
303
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,360
with sickness and how it's not
really about his mother and it's
304
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,800
not really about abuse.
It's like, what the fuck, man?
305
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,800
Like you, you can't do that.
No, you cannot do that because
306
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,320
the interpretation is.
Everybody's interpretation is
307
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,400
different and that's why music
is what it is, man.
308
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,280
That's exactly right.
Yeah, you.
309
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,560
Want people to own it for
themselves, you know?
310
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,640
Thank you.
Yes, yes.
311
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,960
You hear this dreaming.
You hear this, Dave?
312
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:03,840
Come on, man.
It'll challenge you too.
313
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,640
Hey, listen, listen.
Don't mess with my childhood.
314
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,280
Don't tell me that.
Don't tell me that Kiss Alive is
315
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:14,360
not a live album, OK?
In my opinion, it's a live
316
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,400
album, right?
And that's what I grew up with.
317
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:17,920
And damn it, yeah.
It's a damn live.
318
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,920
Album.
Yep, it's just like the moon
319
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,320
landing.
Don't tell me it's fake, because
320
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,000
I believe it was real.
I don't want to mess with that,
321
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:31,120
but you know, Duvall comes up
with so many ideas and melodies
322
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,160
and lyrics to.
So it's kind of like a Rick
323
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,040
Nielsen, Robin Xander situation
in some ways where where he
324
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:44,640
brings me songs.
I tried to invoke, you know,
325
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,680
and, and relate and connect to
the material.
326
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,800
Then I might come up with some
things.
327
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,720
I come up with my own melodies.
I come up with something on the
328
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,560
spur of the moment.
When you're recording as you
329
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,920
know, you know, you don't know.
I never know how I'm going to
330
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,560
sing a song.
I might rehearse a song a
331
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,760
certain way when I'm when I'm
learning the song.
332
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,280
But then when I get the studio,
I sing something totally weird
333
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,079
that I never even.
It just comes into my head at
334
00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:11,280
the last minute.
Oh, I'm talking about the
335
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,599
process.
Sorry, I didn't mean to go.
336
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,560
There no, but, but, but
everybody's process is
337
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,440
different, man.
Like when, when how Mike and I
338
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,319
would work, we kind of had a, a
different dynamic than you guys.
339
00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:26,119
We would, I would, I would bring
him a song, I'd write lyrics and
340
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,960
I'd be like, hey, take this.
And Mike is the only guitar
341
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,880
player, and I've said it 1000
times, that had the innate
342
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,840
ability to take whatever I wrote
and match it musically and match
343
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,480
that emotion and and the vibe
that I wanted it to be.
344
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:40,800
And I already kind of had a
melody in my head.
345
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,120
And nine times out of 10, what
he came up with my melody that I
346
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:44,400
already had in my head would fit
it.
347
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,960
I may have to just little pieces
here and there, right?
348
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,640
Or the OR the length of a verse
or length of a chorus.
349
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,400
But for the most part it it
literally it was like you said,
350
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,000
Xander Nielsen.
You know, I'm not saying we're
351
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,680
McCartney and Linen, but it's
just it kind of has that you got
352
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,600
to have that Ying and Yang to
it, right?
353
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,040
You got to have it's and it just
makes it that much more
354
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,920
powerful, I think exactly when
you write the song and it comes
355
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,440
across like the song you heard
when we started our show, we
356
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,800
wrote that 30 years ago.
Wow.
357
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,560
Right, right on.
And everybody who hears that,
358
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,520
like, holy shit, that's 30 years
old.
359
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,800
I know because it sounds like it
could be now.
360
00:18:21,120 --> 00:18:23,440
Yeah, and it was.
Just right, thank you that.
361
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,880
He says that.
All that's why that's why I told
362
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,840
Brian about, you know, if if I
had a song that I wrote three
363
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,880
years ago, but if we hadn't, if
it's not recorded or if let's
364
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,840
say the instruments are recorded
but not the vocal, then hey,
365
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,560
it's brand new, dude.
Nobody's heard it, you know, And
366
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,680
but what you're talking about,
you know, like writing kind of a
367
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:49,160
big factor for me is vibe, you
know, if there's a guitar riff,
368
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,640
it already kind of suggests so
much in your mind, you know, it
369
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,240
puts you to imagery, time and
place.
370
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:57,120
Imagery.
Yeah.
371
00:18:57,360 --> 00:19:00,200
And it might be one time or
place for me, and it might be a
372
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,480
different time or place for
Brian.
373
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,560
He's.
He's going to sing it.
374
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,600
So if he runs with it for where
he's.
375
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,840
At In fact, I don't want to know
what the songs are about, right,
376
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,840
Right.
So I interpret it how I
377
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,400
interpret it, and Dave
interprets it how he interprets
378
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,160
it, and the audience will
interpret it how they interpret
379
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,880
it.
And I'm not going to argue
380
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,760
either way.
Yeah, that's always my example,
381
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:30,080
25,000,000 might 25 million
people might hear a song and
382
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,040
interpret it 12 and a half
million different ways, right?
383
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,760
You're going to have repeats
over and over again.
384
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,280
That's it.
Yeah, you don't want to.
385
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,080
Yeah, you'll get some comment
now.
386
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,800
To both of your points earlier,
everybody should be able to
387
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,280
interpret the song that Chris
wrote or the song that you
388
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,120
wrote, Brian, the way that the
at least the lyrics should be
389
00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:51,720
interpreted however they want,
right?
390
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:56,480
That music invokes an emotion in
them that may be, it may have
391
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,800
been happy in the songwriters
eyes and somehow now it's sad
392
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,440
for this person.
That person should be able to
393
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,680
feel however they want when they
listen to that song.
394
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,400
That's the purpose of art,
right?
395
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,320
It's no different than a
painting on a wall, especially
396
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,760
an abstract painting somebody's
going to interpret.
397
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,400
It. 1000 different ways.
Yeah, everybody watches their
398
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,840
own movie.
Yeah.
399
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,480
That's a great way of putting it
for sure.
400
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,760
Absolutely.
Yeah, In fact, I've heard
401
00:20:22,120 --> 00:20:25,880
artists will sometimes comment
on what inspired them on a song,
402
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,120
you know, like a nationally
known artist, and I'll go, where
403
00:20:29,120 --> 00:20:30,760
the hell did that come from
then?
404
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,120
You know, like I had a
completely different idea.
405
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,000
Right.
And.
406
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,400
That's why I don't, that's why I
don't like when people share the
407
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,600
the reasoning behind the song.
It takes the mystery away.
408
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,560
Like we've Mike and I've talked
about it before that this 20
409
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,680
years ago.
Up on your mic there. 30 years
410
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,120
ago, like when we get when we
when, when you'd go to concerts,
411
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:53,320
right, you didn't have the Mt VS
and shit.
412
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,440
So, so you didn't know what the
band looked like aside from the
413
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,640
from the from the vinyl jacket,
right, That's right.
414
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:03,000
So then you go, you go to the
show, you know, and the lights,
415
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,640
the lights go out, you know, and
then whatever they have intro
416
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,800
then I mean, and you you can
remember this, the entire crowd
417
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,960
with in in unison, just start
screaming.
418
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,520
It's.
Because they know, right?
419
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,840
The energy and the vibes that
I'm getting goosebumps now
420
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,080
because it's just like you.
And you don't get that anymore.
421
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,360
It's gone because social media
has destroyed all that.
422
00:21:22,360 --> 00:21:25,040
But that's right.
That's that thing, man.
423
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,120
That's that you capture moment,
you know.
424
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:33,560
You, you, Chris and Mike, and me
and Duvall here are very lucky
425
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,320
that we grew up.
And when we he just made that
426
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,080
point a few episodes back and it
just hit me like a ton of
427
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:41,880
bricks.
I was like, he's so right.
428
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:45,840
No, it's no generation again
will ever experience what he
429
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,400
just they will not.
Yeah, they will not.
430
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,760
And that's why we wanted to
have.
431
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,520
I don't want to talk about that
too much, but I mean, it's,
432
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,640
it's, you know, I, I, I don't do
a lot of social media.
433
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,600
I, I don't, I, I like mystery.
If you destroy mystery with any
434
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,760
band, I am, I think that's the
beginning of the end.
435
00:22:08,120 --> 00:22:11,240
So, you know, I, I don't mind.
Like this is fun.
436
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,680
We're doing this thing and, and
we, we're, we're not trying to
437
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,640
be, we're old enough to know who
we are.
438
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,600
We're not trying to be somebody.
We're not.
439
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,760
Yeah, Yeah, there isn't.
You know, I like ghosts and I
440
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,480
like, you know, of course, you
know, Kiss and the Mötley Crüe
441
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,560
and I grew up with Alice Cooper
and David Bowie.
442
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,400
I like all those people.
But we don't need another one of
443
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,320
those, No.
And so we're, we're not trying
444
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,160
to be something we're not.
But we're still young enough to
445
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:42,440
want to bring fun and romance
back to Rock'n'roll or have have
446
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,760
that in Rock and.
Roll and I can hear that in your
447
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,760
music for sure.
So you guys, if that was your
448
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,480
goal, subconsciously you've
succeeded.
449
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,200
And I know that, you know, from
2 musicians, when we're giving
450
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,400
out examples of who you sound
like, the main reason I give you
451
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,480
2 bands is because you really
don't sound like either one of
452
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,080
those bands.
But I feel it's a respect thing,
453
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:04,840
right?
Yeah.
454
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,840
Like if I have to say what genre
I'm going to put you in, I found
455
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,960
it odd when you said, hey, I met
in a Led Zeppelin tribute band.
456
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,400
And then you write a song that's
closer.
457
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,000
You know, you're writing songs
that are closer to that
458
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,760
mysterious kind of side of pop,
right?
459
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,640
That's the best way I can
describe it.
460
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,560
The Talking Heads are the best
version of pop.
461
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,880
The Romantics are the best
version of pop.
462
00:23:28,120 --> 00:23:32,280
The Pixies were the best version
of that sub pop culture right?
463
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:36,200
Yeah, the most exciting thing
about for me, when I heard the
464
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,240
songs for the first time when we
were just listening to demos
465
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:45,680
before I recorded vocals on
them, was I don't know how to
466
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,000
categorize these right?
And I and I and then my
467
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:53,480
heartbeat started getting a
little faster because I like
468
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,280
that.
We have a song that Dave has we
469
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,760
we recorded it.
It's not mastered yet, but it's
470
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,760
called Something's Wrong.
I think it would be closer to if
471
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,000
Led Zeppelin recorded an R&B
song.
472
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,080
It would be maybe like described
in that way.
473
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:15,240
But I'm excited to find out what
people think about these songs
474
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:21,360
because they are cross genre, I
would say, or genre bending, if
475
00:24:21,360 --> 00:24:22,760
you want to call it that.
You know what?
476
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,240
I mean, it kind of, yeah.
It kind of marries like there's
477
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:30,520
probably 44 main genres I would,
I would guess, you know, But
478
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,760
yeah, the R&B side we had
actually there, you know,
479
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,840
something's wrong with like a
slow, slow bluesy song,
480
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,920
something that almost Motown,
you know?
481
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,880
Yeah.
And it's, I don't know.
482
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,320
And it's a motion.
Yeah.
483
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,800
It's a four piece rock band
playing it.
484
00:24:46,360 --> 00:24:49,920
But yeah, you'll just have to
trust me on it has that vibe.
485
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,600
But then there's a that vibe,
Yeah, Anonymity, which is really
486
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,600
funky.
It's a funky song.
487
00:24:57,120 --> 00:24:58,840
I know what I wanted to say real
quick too.
488
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:03,200
Just back to the songwriting and
what the songs were about.
489
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,280
You know, we all know that
McCartney wrote Let it Be for
490
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,200
his mother.
OK, My favorite.
491
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,400
Songs Now one of my favorite
Beatles songs ever.
492
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:15,120
So there's so there's an example
of, you know, you it's almost
493
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:18,280
like as a Beatles band, I wanted
to know what that was about.
494
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,200
And I and you get it, You can
get it.
495
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,360
But I mean, to hear Paul talk
about it and what it meant to
496
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:28,880
him, you know, you know, there,
there's that side too, which is
497
00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:31,320
maybe perspective.
Paul McCartney gets away with
498
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,000
some things that other musicians
don't get away with, Right.
499
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,320
Did you guys ever see the
documentary that Dave Girl did
500
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,440
on Sound City?
That scene at the end I just
501
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,280
described to a friend of mine at
work where they're recording
502
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,120
that song.
And Dave Girl was like, jeez, I
503
00:25:46,120 --> 00:25:47,640
wish it was this easy all the
time.
504
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,800
And without missing a beat, Paul
McCartney says, what is, you
505
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:51,640
know?
Yeah, I know.
506
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,800
And Dave Girl's.
Yeah, if you're Paul fucking
507
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:59,000
McCartney, the rest of us mere
mortals, writing songs is a hard
508
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,680
process.
Paul.
509
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,320
Paul.
Doesn't exist in this universe.
510
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,600
So if you if you want to see
something really cool, if you
511
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:11,000
haven't already, watch Get Back.
Yeah, I watched it.
512
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,360
That series that Peter Jackson
did.
513
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,080
Yeah, it is on.
I've watched it 100 times.
514
00:26:19,120 --> 00:26:21,480
Yeah, I love it.
What you're, I'm not going to
515
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,280
spoil it for anybody who hasn't
seen it, but what you will see
516
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,520
in that movie, regardless of
anything you've heard about The
517
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:33,040
Beatles, will all be proved
wrong in that in that show.
518
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,160
And it is eye opening.
And that is why I've watched it
519
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:42,520
so many times, because you see
one beetle and that beetle is
520
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:46,640
not from Earth.
And even the other three
521
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:53,080
acknowledge it and you can see
them looking at that beetle with
522
00:26:53,120 --> 00:26:56,640
amazement.
And that is that is.
523
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,680
Anyway, I'll leave it at that.
You know, there's another thing
524
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,680
about McCartney that reminds me
of the whole you guys are
525
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,920
musicians, we're music, the
whole being a musician thing.
526
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:10,160
It's like, I think he was about
to go on stage, somebody had a
527
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,120
camera, you know, backstage.
And I thought to myself, you
528
00:27:14,120 --> 00:27:19,640
know, he owns a frickin island.
But when he walks on that stage,
529
00:27:20,120 --> 00:27:23,480
he's just another band member
and he's got play good.
530
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,240
He acts as such.
He's got hook up with the
531
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,320
drummer.
He's got a, you know, hook up
532
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,440
with the other guitar player.
He's got a singing key.
533
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,520
Can't be tired.
He can't be, you know, wasted.
534
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:38,800
And you know, you know, I mean,
he, he's got, he's in the same
535
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:43,520
boat we're all in when we step
on that stage and he he asked
536
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,520
for that.
He's not trying to prove
537
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:46,640
himself.
Oh, he's.
538
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,640
A good beat.
It is a great point.
539
00:27:50,120 --> 00:27:53,920
Yeah, I just saw he was, he was
just here in Oklahoma because we
540
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,200
now here in Tulsa, we now we
bought Oklahoma City has always
541
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,800
had a big arena for big acts
like like Paul McCartney or, or
542
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,400
the like.
But over the last 10 years we've
543
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,560
had to be OK center and and he's
been here several times.
544
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,720
But there's a video, I would
still do a little shout out.
545
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:15,160
There's a video.
He did a little selfie video and
546
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,440
he's, I think he's one of our
parks, you know, and he goes,
547
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:26,640
I'm here in Tulsa, OK.
It's middle of October, 80° Oh,
548
00:28:27,360 --> 00:28:28,880
it's.
Bloody not Liverpool.
549
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,680
Yeah, it's it's because it was,
man.
550
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,280
We met some good weather, you
know?
551
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,120
Yeah.
But yeah, we got it, you know?
552
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,120
So Tulsa got put on the map a
little bit.
553
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,600
Well, I'll tell you something
that you just said, Brian,
554
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,320
before I forget that I never
really thought about either.
555
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,920
You made a good point for you
and Chris specifically.
556
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:52,600
You guys hear music before it
becomes a song, right?
557
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,800
And it's one thing that I've
always said that I came to terms
558
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:02,160
with real quick as a just
writing music is that the song
559
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:07,360
that I write as a musician is
never going to be what I present
560
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:13,000
to Chris as a lyricist, right?
He's going to change it to fit
561
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,840
the melody and the timing that
he requires for these certain
562
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,400
sections I came to.
I'm fascinated with the amount
563
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:26,600
of musicians who are just like,
so super glued, for lack of a
564
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,320
better term, to this structure,
right?
565
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,200
And I'm not changing it.
Yeah.
566
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,200
It's just such a you.
Know what the You know what?
567
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,880
The formality is so stupid.
You know what the formula is?
568
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,640
There ain't one.
Yeah.
569
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:40,720
Right.
Yeah, that's it.
570
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,760
That's.
It, I think Jerry Garcia said it
571
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,400
best, he said.
I bring a song to the dead and
572
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,600
it's never the same song that I
brought to him, but somehow it
573
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,120
always comes out better.
Good for him man.
574
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,040
Yeah, right, right.
Yeah, that is so true.
575
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,440
That's so important.
Yeah, our drummer told me that
576
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,600
quote and I, it just rattled
around in my head.
577
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,840
I'm like, yeah, just, you know,
present it to the guys and let
578
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,800
it be right.
Just let it breathe.
579
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,680
Yeah.
Become whatever it's going to
580
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,200
become.
It's that's it.
581
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,720
It is.
It's going to be whatever you
582
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,400
don't even imagine it's going to
be, you know, yeah, that's the
583
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:20,760
cool thing about what we do,
what we all do, you know, trying
584
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:27,520
to create and express and
phrase, you know, Chris, you
585
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,480
know, as a singer.
And you, it's phrasing.
586
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,320
Where, How, How?
What word do you choose that
587
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,280
sounds better?
That means something?
588
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,560
How long do you hold that ending
out?
589
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,000
What's going to start that
phrase?
590
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,680
All of that, all of that, how it
rolls off the tongue or is that
591
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,800
awkward?
Or do people even talk like
592
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,640
that?
Oh well, maybe, maybe they will
593
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,760
now.
The endings of his phrases
594
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:58,080
always grab me because they they
would lead me into something, or
595
00:30:58,080 --> 00:30:59,960
they would lead the drummer into
something.
596
00:30:59,960 --> 00:31:02,840
They would lead one of us into
these really cool parts, you
597
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,760
know?
He'd just be like, you know,
598
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,880
bear with me, check it out.
Here's what we, you know, can we
599
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,440
just, can we just extend that
out just a little bit further,
600
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,040
you know, and at the end, it
would always work.
601
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,600
It would.
Just you're so cool, you know,
602
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,880
you're creating, you're making
something up at the moment.
603
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,880
And then guess what?
If you're recording that, good
604
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,120
luck trying to duplicate it We.
Just talked.
605
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,080
That's that's, yeah.
That's how relevant this whole
606
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,720
thing is that we're doing right
here.
607
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,080
Chris and I were talking about
that before you guys got on
608
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,240
here.
I was like, I'm trying to
609
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,240
recreate a song, the one you
heard.
610
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,680
Yeah, that we were 30 years old,
30 years.
611
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,040
Yeah.
And I'm like, something's just
612
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,680
missing, you know, And I'm
hearing all these little nuances
613
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,680
that I did on the guitar.
Is a 22 year old just starting
614
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:48,600
out recording?
Yeah.
615
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,720
Like who's this guy?
I son of a bitch.
616
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,560
You got be careful.
I'm just going to say this.
617
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,840
Be careful.
Messing with something that was
618
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,120
good.
Yeah, already.
619
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,520
Yeah, I you know, I've heard so
many.
620
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,240
I.
Agree with you, but I don't have
621
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,560
any way to like that was
recorded on an 8 track that I
622
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,720
don't have the reels to anymore.
Yeah, absolutely.
623
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,840
No, yeah.
Oh, I ran the same thing, man.
624
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,360
Yeah, yeah.
Playing at home.
625
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,600
I use GarageBand on this very
iPad.
626
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,880
We're going to do the best we
can to make it sound like it did
627
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:27,360
back then.
I mean, I know it's going to be
628
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,360
different and I've come to terms
with that, but I just want to
629
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,920
capture enough of that original
magic, yeah.
630
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,360
Nemesis yeah, Nemesis is around
before before all of this
631
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,960
technology.
So the so the stuff we did with
632
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,960
some life circumstances and
whatnot, Mike lost all of the
633
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,640
catalog, all the recordings and
everything.
634
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,680
So what you hear are just random
things he has that legit was
635
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,200
recorded 30 years ago with HII
sang the vocals in his bathroom
636
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:54,120
to make.
My.
637
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,320
Apartment, right, it's and it's
still it still carries through,
638
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,800
but we want to be able to put
this stuff out.
639
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,920
We want to be oh, sure, you know
all the platforms for music,
640
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:04,240
right?
Absolutely, yeah.
641
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,800
Because some of us, yeah.
And that's the other thing that
642
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,880
I'm proud of as not only a
musician and a songwriter, but
643
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,320
the fact that you guys hear that
and you can appreciate what we
644
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,000
were trying to achieve.
I recorded all that too.
645
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:19,640
It's not like we went in a
studio.
646
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,760
You know, I, I did the best I
could with this microscopic
647
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,920
amount of like I knew enough to
get myself in trouble, right?
648
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,200
Chris is the one that came up
with the idea.
649
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,400
Hey, you know, I've recorded
some vocals in the bathroom and
650
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,920
I get good acoustics in there,
and it came out really cool.
651
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,160
Can we try it?
We can try whatever you want,
652
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:38,320
because I don't know what I'm
doing.
653
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:39,760
Right.
Yeah, right.
654
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:41,920
Yeah.
You know, I it turned out
655
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,720
outstanding.
I got to say that is true.
656
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,400
Before recording a home was so
convenient.
657
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,320
I remember like in other bands I
was in the past, I'd go to my
658
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,080
problem with musical ideas,
it's, it's only one little, like
659
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,480
the guitar is only one little
part of the equation, you know,
660
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,000
So I would have an idea concept
in my mind.
661
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,640
I'd go to band practice and hey
guys, what do you think about
662
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,040
this?
And play the guitar part.
663
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,760
And they just give me this dumb
look on their face, you know,
664
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,520
And so really.
Realize I need the rest of you
665
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,040
to make this happen, right?
That's like.
666
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:17,080
Yeah, so I kinda had to build
the whole concept of the song,
667
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,639
you know, bass and a drum beat
and some lyrical and my pitiful
668
00:34:21,639 --> 00:34:24,199
singing or some or something.
Just a suggestion.
669
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,320
This is, you know.
You have no idea how profound
670
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,679
that statement is, Dave.
Helpful to do that.
671
00:34:29,679 --> 00:34:33,600
Like working with Brian, he
could get an idea of like, well,
672
00:34:33,639 --> 00:34:37,600
yeah, I could just initiate A
vibe, just a vibe, that's it.
673
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,480
But sometimes got to have a drum
beat and a bass, you know, and
674
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,520
and maybe a keyboard part or
something.
675
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,280
Too.
Well, here's a great example,
676
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,760
Dave.
I'm giving lessons to this guy
677
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:52,320
and you break down an ACDC song,
especially like, let's say, Gone
678
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:56,400
Shooting.
It's the same lick over and over
679
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,920
and over and and it doesn't
sound good until, you know,
680
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,440
Angus starts putting his little
nuances on top.
681
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,880
The song was designed to be a
certain way, and it needs both
682
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,120
guitar players, the bass, the
drums, the singer.
683
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:12,400
Do everybody doing their little
thing because there's so many,
684
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,960
what Chris likes to say, the
open space, you know, like you
685
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:17,520
need a field in the middle of
certain.
686
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,800
Yeah.
That song is a great example of
687
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,840
if you keep that lick cycling
going around, it's the coolest
688
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,960
thing ever.
But if you speed up or slow down
689
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:30,320
even ever so slightly, the train
falls off the tracks.
690
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,000
But it's a great example of what
you just said.
691
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,280
It's not really that great on
its own.
692
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,200
It takes the whole to, and that
was our goal was to make a song
693
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,920
not a great riff, not a great
lick, not a great vocal.
694
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,800
We wanted a great song.
You're baking a cake.
695
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:47,720
You're baking a.
Big.
696
00:35:47,720 --> 00:35:51,120
Old, beautiful, best food you've
ever had in your life?
697
00:35:51,240 --> 00:35:52,560
Cake.
You know, yeah.
698
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,680
And I think that's what gives
this legitimacy here.
699
00:35:55,920 --> 00:36:01,200
Tequila in their limits.
I do, I do, but I'm probably
700
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,800
unique in that way.
Yeah, yeah.
701
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,880
That's funny.
Yeah, that's that's fun.
702
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,800
That's a good point though.
It takes all the ingredients to
703
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,040
make to bring the chemistry with
that to make it.
704
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,200
Work and you know I.
Think that's what makes this
705
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:22,240
podcast work is you know my
dream was we kind of fell into
706
00:36:22,240 --> 00:36:25,280
the talking about addiction part
because Chris and I have that in
707
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,600
common.
But the one thing you.
708
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,440
Do I have that in common with
you all?
709
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,040
Congratulations, I feel.
I'm I'm 20, I'm 20 years sober.
710
00:36:33,240 --> 00:36:38,400
Mike's about. 1518.
Outstanding, Outstanding.
711
00:36:38,720 --> 00:36:41,520
I've lost a lot of friends.
I've lost a lot of friends.
712
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,440
I've never achieved what you
guys achieved.
713
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,600
Yeah, And that's why I lost.
That's why we do the ending the
714
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,520
way we do it, because we've lost
a lot of people along the way to
715
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:56,640
suicide and drug addiction.
And absolutely, the point of the
716
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,840
point I was going to make is the
musician side.
717
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:03,160
You're never going to get
musicians to truly open up to
718
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:07,400
you on a podcast, interview,
show, whatever you want to call
719
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,360
it, unless they know you've been
there, right?
720
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,960
The reason that we can talk like
we've known each other for 30
721
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,720
years like Chris and I have, is
we've all been doing the same
722
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:18,480
thing for that same amount of
time, right?
723
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:20,680
That's right.
We understand the blood, sweat
724
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,880
and tears that went into your
struggle, just like you
725
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,200
understand ours.
All the, all the Spinal Tap
726
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:27,800
moments, yeah.
Yeah.
727
00:37:30,240 --> 00:37:32,600
I've had too many.
Forgot about that.
728
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:40,480
You know, it's bands like we
could make 5 Spinal Tap sequels,
729
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,680
man.
I had Spinal Tap moments before
730
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:48,080
Spinal Tap was spinal.
Give us give us your best one
731
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:49,920
that you.
Totally understand it.
732
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,040
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What's your what's your Mike
733
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,560
wants to Mike wants to know your
best Spinal Tap moment, Brian.
734
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:57,960
Oh my God.
Oh, I got one.
735
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,440
I got one that's got student.
Yeah, I want, well, we want both
736
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:01,840
your Spinal Tap moments, but
we'll go.
737
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,640
Back first.
Well, one of those jumps.
738
00:38:04,240 --> 00:38:07,120
Bouncing up and.
You know guys, you know, you get
739
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:12,040
side about the music and and
bouncing up and down and then
740
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,120
crash.
I go through the stage, I'm
741
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,160
about to be hit right in the
middle of a panel, you know,
742
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:24,680
particle board panel, you know,
and yeah, this is this one
743
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,160
happens like we're in, we're in
Oklahoma, but we're in the city
744
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,960
of Tulsa, if you get outside of
Tulsa.
745
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,320
Take a look.
Underneath the stage before you
746
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:36,840
go jumping on it a.
Whole lot I.
747
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,280
I.
Have too many, you know, my
748
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:45,560
ADHD, my ADHD brain is hardwired
for catastrophe.
749
00:38:46,240 --> 00:38:49,920
So so I have a thing and I had a
manager that used to tell me
750
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:50,880
this.
He goes, what are you doing in
751
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,920
this video right here?
Like a live footage of a video.
752
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,880
I'm standing on stage with my
back to the audience, to the
753
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,680
drummer, and I'm look,
discovering that I have a price
754
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:04,120
tag on my shirt or my coat.
And for some reason I'm fixated
755
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,320
on it.
And I'm totally forgetting that
756
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,080
I'm in front.
I'm performing in front of an
757
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,160
audience.
I'm like, oh, by the way, Oh,
758
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,520
yeah, this is a nice Christian
Dior 999.
759
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,520
I paid for that.
What are you in my brain?
760
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,280
This is what going.
Through my brain I would
761
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,160
appreciate.
People go, what do you think
762
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,120
about when you're on stage?
I'm like, dude, you don't want
763
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,880
to go there.
I don't even, I, I don't have, I
764
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,080
can't even, I can't even talk
about about it because it's like
765
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,960
I can't even hardly talk about.
It see, that's the benefit of
766
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,960
that's the benefit of how Mike
and I would write our music
767
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,680
because every song I wrote was,
was a timestamp of a point in my
768
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,160
life, right?
So whatever song we were
769
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,080
playing, I was in that moment in
my life, whatever it was.
770
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,560
So that's where that's always
where my thoughts were, what
771
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,720
that song was about.
It was my thing was between
772
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:47,520
songs and like we would come out
and play 3 songs back-to-back to
773
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,040
back, not say a word to the
crowd.
774
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,720
And then once you finish the
third song, the crowd's just
775
00:39:51,720 --> 00:39:53,280
like hair blown back, like holy
shit.
776
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,520
Then I would say something.
But to me it was always, I don't
777
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,440
want to be that cheesy guy.
How's everybody doing tonight at
778
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,120
Phoenix, right?
You know, cuz I mean, thanks for
779
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,000
coming to do that, right?
So.
780
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:04,480
What to do?
What not to do?
781
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,560
Right, so that was my only weird
thing of don't ask what I'm
782
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,600
doing on stage cuz then I would
start thinking what what do I
783
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,080
say tonight, you know?
I know exactly.
784
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,280
No, I, I guess, I mean, I'm
going to answer the question
785
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,200
now.
The biggest Spinal Tap moment
786
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,240
that I ever had.
It's a little bit emotional, but
787
00:40:19,240 --> 00:40:21,440
I'm not going to get emotional
because it's a happy ending.
788
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:25,440
But real quick, I was playing on
stage with a guitar player who I
789
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:29,640
could tell was not right before
he got on stage and he literally
790
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:31,240
died.
Oh fuck.
791
00:40:31,240 --> 00:40:33,520
This was a two night gig that we
were playing.
792
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,800
No.
This was this was Friday night.
793
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,240
He died.
He literally died for a few
794
00:40:38,240 --> 00:40:39,160
minutes.
Wow.
795
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:45,040
The next day, the next night he
was very much alive and he
796
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,400
played the best show we've ever
played.
797
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,480
Don't ask me how, I can't
explain it.
798
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:56,200
It's like he was, he had a Keith
Richards moment and it was
799
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:58,440
unbelievable.
We went to like the worst show
800
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,360
we ever did to the best show we
ever did.
801
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,520
So that's just crazy.
But that happened.
802
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:07,120
That actually is a true story.
And he never found out why he.
803
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:08,880
Oh yeah, he did.
No, we did.
804
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:09,960
Yeah.
We, we, we knew.
805
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:10,880
Yeah, we knew.
Yeah.
806
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,160
Right, Kenneth?
That's a whole nother chapter,
807
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,040
another probably another show
for another show.
808
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,320
But but I you know you, I could
tell that.
809
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,000
Apparently I'm not awake yet.
He had a Keith Richards moment.
810
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,280
I'm with you.
We're all on the same page, no?
811
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,240
Even me, I know I you.
Guys were there.
812
00:41:24,240 --> 00:41:26,920
I caught up.
Yeah, yeah, this is.
813
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,920
But we've had many, I'm sure
between the two of us, me and
814
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,120
Duval, we can talk about Spinal
Tap my.
815
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:36,120
Funniest one was years ago when
I was a kid.
816
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:43,120
We're showing up some bar guess
I was here in Tulsa anyway and
817
00:41:43,720 --> 00:41:48,000
we're loading in and there's
this chick on the phone and and
818
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:51,320
she and she's talking on phone
and she's not really looking at
819
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,240
us.
She go Vance here.
820
00:41:53,240 --> 00:41:59,120
So we're going to leave.
Keep that in there.
821
00:41:59,240 --> 00:42:02,120
Awesome.
I'll tell you my best one and
822
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:06,040
and it was the as a guitar
player, it was embarrassing and
823
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:10,000
Dave will appreciate this.
I knew I picked the right three
824
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,800
guys because my main guitar got
stolen.
825
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,920
I got another guitar that had a
floating tremelo on it, right?
826
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:18,480
It had a Floyd Rose that
floated.
827
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,480
And I didn't realize that when
you broke a string that your
828
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,400
entire guitar went out of tune
because I had never experienced
829
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,880
that before.
And we're on stage right in the
830
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:32,480
middle of playing vision, which
is, you know, guitar driven.
831
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,160
It needs the guitar right before
I go to play the solo, pop the
832
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,200
string, it's all out of tune.
I run backstage.
833
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:40,920
These guys carry on like
warriors.
834
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:45,440
I mean, the crowd went crazy
because Chris, Chris stepped up
835
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,080
and just, you know, became the
the man of the hour.
836
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:51,120
But it taught me something.
Number one, you got to have at
837
00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:56,400
least one backup guitar.
Yeah. #2 to block that thing
838
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,240
off, because I rarely pull that
bar back, you know?
839
00:43:00,240 --> 00:43:02,760
The show must go on and.
See and see and see.
840
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,240
That goes back to what we talked
about earlier, the chemistry and
841
00:43:05,240 --> 00:43:07,480
connection.
Because if we didn't have that,
842
00:43:08,240 --> 00:43:10,880
they wouldn't understand that I
had the ability of the improv,
843
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:12,680
whatever song I was doing,
right?
844
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,600
So I could take vision where
wherever I wanted to take it
845
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,760
during the time it took him to
replace that string.
846
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:19,880
And it doesn't, it doesn't miss
a beat.
847
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,320
Now, if you've seen this before,
you're like, well, this is
848
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:23,240
different.
Where's Mike?
849
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,640
But if it's the first time, you
if the first time you had.
850
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,120
Everybody stop that plane and
looks looks for Mike.
851
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,960
Right, but if that's the.
Worst case scenario.
852
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:32,520
Yeah, right.
But if you hadn't seen this
853
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,400
before, then you're just
thinking, OK, this is the
854
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:35,800
singer.
He's just going off on a
855
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,040
tangent.
Yeah, there you go.
856
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:38,320
You know what I mean?
So it.
857
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,160
Yeah, Yeah.
So the dynamic of it works.
858
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:43,280
And that guitar player?
Must have a drug problem.
859
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,480
He's been back there a while.
You know, but that's the, that's
860
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,480
the, that's the dynamic you need
for a band.
861
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,120
That's where you go back.
You can have, you can have, you
862
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,080
can have the four greatest
musicians, like you said in the
863
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,560
world standing on stage.
But if they don't have that, if
864
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,240
they're not connected.
Or worse yet, somebody gets
865
00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:01,920
pissed right at me because I
didn't prepare.
866
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,040
These guys knew my guitar got
stolen.
867
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,360
I didn't have a choice.
I was lucky to have the one that
868
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,080
I had at the time because we're
all poor as shit back then, you
869
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,600
know?
Oh yeah, man.
870
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,560
So Chris, what is yours?
We haven't heard your Spinal
871
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,040
Tap.
Yeah, you know, yeah, OK, it was
872
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,120
probably.
Your theatre moment, wasn't it?
873
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,880
Well, well, I'm gonna go this
way.
874
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,960
I'm gonna go this one.
So, so we were opening up.
875
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:26,760
I think it was the Marshall
Tucker Band show.
876
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:31,200
Oh, I love Marshall Tucker.
Band so, so and, and so our so
877
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,800
we were opening up for them and
and we were at the ballroom,
878
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:38,040
which is about which probably
about 2500 some odd people like,
879
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,000
you know, a lot of a lot of
bands came through there.
880
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,760
So I'm I'm never I'm nervous
before a show, but I'm not
881
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:44,840
nervous like I'm going to throw
up.
882
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:47,040
It's that anxious energy, right,
Brian, you get that, like you're
883
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,400
ready to go, you know, you,
you're turning on the switch,
884
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,160
You know, I call it the iron dog
when I go on stage, It's it's a
885
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:55,080
different personality.
So I'm pacing back and forth and
886
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,560
and Mike's tuning his guitar and
and Williams doing his thing and
887
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,200
Mike always had a cigarette in
his fret, right.
888
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,880
So, and I wasn't a big smoker
because singer, but I'm like,
889
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,520
Oh, that'll help me kind of
chill out a bit.
890
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,560
So I grabbed the cigarette and
you know, you know, nice and
891
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:11,960
hail and, you know, put it back
couple.
892
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,440
Times he hit it.
Yeah, like, OK, this is cool.
893
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:15,720
You know, it's kind of bring me
down a bit.
894
00:45:15,720 --> 00:45:17,040
I'm still anxious, I'm still
pumped.
895
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,840
We go out, bust out our first 3
songs and I'm about to in the
896
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,960
middle of the second song, I'm
like, like, you know, whoa, man,
897
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:26,120
like this is this is OK, this is
cool.
898
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,800
And I'm like, I always had a
shot of Jaeger and a Budweiser
899
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,680
before the show.
That was the extent of it,
900
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,800
right?
So I'm thinking there's no,
901
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:36,480
there's no way the Jaeger and
the butt are doing this to me.
902
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,440
There's just no way.
So I'm you know, we're we're
903
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:42,600
jamming out and I'm just I'm in
this pocket, man that I just are
904
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:43,760
you supposed to?
I can't.
905
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,920
See the sounds, man?
Right, right.
906
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,480
And I've never been in this
pocket before live, so I'm just
907
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,240
thinking I'm in the groove, man.
This is one of those the all the
908
00:45:51,240 --> 00:45:53,920
rock gods are lined up.
This is just going to be one of
909
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:55,880
those shows that just fucking
stellar.
910
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,640
Yeah.
So, you know, play the show.
911
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,960
Great show, great response from
the crowd and shit, next day we
912
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,320
go to practice.
I'm a practice and and I'm I'm
913
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,160
explaining this to Mike and he's
just sitting there kind of
914
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,080
fucking laughing, chuckling
under his breath, looks over
915
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:11,280
Scott.
He's like, dude.
916
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,840
My drummer and I had the best
time that night.
917
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,440
I'm sure.
But you have this neighbor that
918
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,600
could take a Marlboro cigarette,
take the tobacco out and put
919
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,800
marijuana in it.
So he mixes the marijuana, the
920
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,720
Marlboro, right with marijuana.
And I haven't smoked.
921
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:29,920
I haven't smoked pot in years,
man.
922
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:34,120
So I hit this thing twice and I
inhale it and I'm fucking like,
923
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:39,200
I'm not like wacky, but but that
was that was as close as I can
924
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,240
get to like a Spinal Tap moment
because it's like you didn't you
925
00:46:42,240 --> 00:46:44,120
didn't realize what the fuck
happened.
926
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,800
But after the fact, it's like
the show because you feel the
927
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,120
music, right?
You just, everything's just kind
928
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,480
of like you're just into it even
more than you always are.
929
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,840
Things elevated, Yeah.
So seeing the sky.
930
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:57,960
Yeah, yeah.
So that would be my closest
931
00:46:57,960 --> 00:46:59,560
Spinal Tap moment for.
Sure.
932
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,040
I so wish that show was
recorded.
933
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:05,120
Yeah, because it probably, we
probably did things that night
934
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,000
that we never did again.
Yeah, right.
935
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,600
I know.
And some of them are probably
936
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,600
really amazing moments.
You never know for sure.
937
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,400
Nuggets in there, you know, you
just don't know So, but I, you
938
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:22,120
know, I, I personally, I have
now realized now that I feel and
939
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:27,880
I've always felt more at home on
stage than I ever have in any
940
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:32,000
house I've ever lived in.
And I think that it's easy.
941
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:35,360
That part is easy for me, that
doing that stuff is easy.
942
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,800
That's like the easy part.
You know what I tell people,
943
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:40,040
Dave?
That's funny They because if you
944
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,680
know me, I'm pretty introverted
until you get to know me,
945
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,520
extremely introverted till you
get to know me.
946
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:48,480
But I could get up on stage
right now in front of 6000
947
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,800
people and play my guitar.
And the first question that
948
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,120
people ask me is how can you do
that?
949
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,680
And then I immediately make them
laugh and say, because I don't
950
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,080
have to say anything, right?
Yeah.
951
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,760
I know what I'm saying.
With a guitar in my hands, you
952
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:04,080
can know what my emotions are.
Dave will say the same thing.
953
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:07,360
You know how Dave and I feel
just by listening to us play?
954
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:08,960
Yeah.
If we're sad, it's going to
955
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:10,560
sound sad.
If we're happy, it's going to
956
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,000
sound happy, right?
Yeah, it comes out, man.
957
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,800
It comes out.
Yeah, I I think music for me is
958
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,760
easy.
Life has been tough.
959
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:18,320
Thank you.
Yeah.
960
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,200
Hey, man.
Yeah, yeah, that's a that's a
961
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:25,000
thing, yeah.
Getting on stage and and, and,
962
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:28,800
and some confidence, you know,
like play, like don't especially
963
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,240
talking about like singing, not
having to sing, play guitar.
964
00:48:32,240 --> 00:48:34,720
There's something I can do, you
know, I don't see how Brian can
965
00:48:34,720 --> 00:48:36,480
do it, but.
That's what they got.
966
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:39,040
That's where they become another
person, right?
967
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,040
Like Chris said, he becomes
another person.
968
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:45,680
If you, Dave or Brian, said it
earlier, you know, people ask me
969
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:51,120
what I think about on stage.
I have to say, as another joke,
970
00:48:51,240 --> 00:48:53,920
I don't really know how to play
guitar because I can't tell you
971
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:55,680
why I can do what I can do,
right?
972
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,720
It just happens.
And I'm so blessed that I can do
973
00:48:58,720 --> 00:49:01,280
that.
But I've never been egotistical
974
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:05,160
about it because I really don't
understand why I was given this
975
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:06,760
gift.
I just use it, right?
976
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,160
Yeah.
There's things I can do on a
977
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,520
guitar that turn people's heads
and they turn my head as well,
978
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:13,520
right?
It's like, wow, how did that
979
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:14,800
just happen?
That's so cool.
980
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,000
I love that.
Sound, it's it's interesting.
981
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:22,400
I did a, I have a degree in
theater and music and I had the
982
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,880
opportunity to work with, I had
the opportunity to work with
983
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,160
Martin Scorsese 4 years ago when
they were filming Killers of the
984
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,840
Flower Moon.
I had AI had a small part in
985
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:34,920
that.
Well, it actually had a bigger
986
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:38,160
part that got edited out.
But anyway, the what I got a few
987
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:42,440
minutes with him and a very few
minutes with him and I realized
988
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:46,640
that he was at Woodstock.
That was his first film as an
989
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:50,880
AD, and I was at Woodstock as a
4 1/2 year old kid that was
990
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,040
kidnapped.
Yeah, that was kidnapped by my.
991
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,760
Well, now I'm aging myself.
OK, audience out there, you can
992
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:56,240
figure.
Out.
993
00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:01,000
But but I yeah, I was kidnapped
by my hippie uncle for about a
994
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,040
week.
We went to Woodstock.
995
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:07,080
But anyway, the conversation, he
finally ended it with OK, OK,
996
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,000
OK, OK.
So what you're telling me is
997
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:12,080
that, you know, you've been
pretending to be other people
998
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:16,160
your whole life.
We had a music conversation and
999
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:18,600
I did a lot of journaling about
that.
1000
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:24,720
And so when people say to me,
what are you on what persona?
1001
00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:26,960
I said, I don't, I don't.
I can't tell you that.
1002
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:31,080
I can't answer that because I
might be playing a part, but
1003
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:34,040
it's also.
Who I am, that's me.
1004
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:39,480
It's the ultimate of who I am
that I can't talk about like.
1005
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:42,040
No, yeah.
That's why on my Facebook page
1006
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,680
it says music isn't what I do,
it's who I am.
1007
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,120
Right, it is.
It's who I am.
1008
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:53,240
It's probably many different
personas that make up who I am.
1009
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:58,120
So at any given night, you don't
know what you're going to get.
1010
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,440
But yeah, what you're talking
about going on stage and feeling
1011
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:05,480
confident.
Yeah, Mike was that's, I think
1012
00:51:06,240 --> 00:51:12,000
for some reason there's
something comes out like, like a
1013
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,320
lot of people, you know, get
nervous.
1014
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:19,560
Well, what's so funny is, man,
this is kind of stupid but kind
1015
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,520
of a story.
But once I had to give up at
1016
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:26,560
work, where I work my day job, I
had to just, I had to introduce
1017
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,080
somebody.
And so I just, all I had to do
1018
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:33,640
was just read this paragraph
and, and, and if I ate my
1019
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:37,480
freaking lunch, man, like, like,
you know, for I got to read
1020
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,000
this, you know, I'll have just
read this.
1021
00:51:39,240 --> 00:51:43,040
Whereas, you know, at the time,
you just like any other time,
1022
00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:47,640
you know, I had 2-3 shows that
week and, you know, getting up
1023
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:51,120
and playing guitar for three
hours no problem, you know, and
1024
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,480
but in front of a bunch of
strangers, but getting up and
1025
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,320
just reading a paragraph, you
know, about.
1026
00:51:56,600 --> 00:52:00,520
I was a nervous wreck.
And then I realized, yeah, it
1027
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,200
it's just a whole different part
of your personality.
1028
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:07,520
Yeah, I know Christian.
I think like Brian, his whole
1029
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:13,640
self is a is a vocalist, a
singer, actor and and his whole
1030
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,040
persona is what he carries on
the stage.
1031
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:18,360
Well, that's the thing that
those two have in common is
1032
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,640
Chris is the same way.
He's a trained theater guy.
1033
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:24,000
He went to school for it.
He acted, did, did a lot of
1034
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,000
theater.
The one thing that he did that
1035
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,200
brought me out of my shell, I
had a couple advantages.
1036
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:34,640
My day job, I got involved with
the union and I had to go talk
1037
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:36,320
to people on a daily basis,
right?
1038
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,240
So that helped a lot.
But then getting on here, he
1039
00:52:39,240 --> 00:52:43,200
noticed right away he's like,
you know, I can't do everything
1040
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,600
or it's going to be my show.
It's like you, this was your
1041
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:46,760
idea.
You got to come out of your
1042
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:48,920
shell a little bit.
You're talking to me, man.
1043
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,000
You know, we've known each other
for 30 years.
1044
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,000
You're talking to me.
You're not talking to the world.
1045
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:54,440
You're not talking to anybody
else.
1046
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:56,720
It just that rattled around in
my head.
1047
00:52:56,720 --> 00:52:59,640
I'm like, OK, I'm just going to
focus on talking to my brother,
1048
00:52:59,720 --> 00:53:01,800
you know?
I think I was telling Chris that
1049
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:03,600
the other day.
When that's it, like what are we
1050
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:05,600
going to talk?
Or I was talking about what are
1051
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:10,320
we going to talk about?
I go for a musician get
1052
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:11,400
together.
It's just fun.
1053
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:13,560
But that's, that's the thing.
That's what I told you, though.
1054
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,160
I said we're just going to,
we're going to introduce the
1055
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:16,320
show, we're going to introduce
you guys.
1056
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,280
All right, then we're just going
to let the conversation go where
1057
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:19,960
it goes.
And here we are 53 minutes into
1058
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:21,400
it.
That's the thing, though.
1059
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,520
But that's the that's that's the
thing.
1060
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:27,320
People don't understand how much
a conversation is so much more
1061
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:29,440
appealing than an interview.
Yeah, Yeah.
1062
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,000
Interviews are boring.
Hi, Brian.
1063
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:32,560
How long have you been singing?
Well, Chris, that.
1064
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,680
Was the only hard, fast rule I
had.
1065
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,280
You know, at the beginning I'm
like, dude, I don't want this to
1066
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:40,320
become a radio show.
I don't want it to become an
1067
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,800
interview show.
I want the best way I could
1068
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:45,600
describe it was this is our
playground.
1069
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:49,480
This is the after band practice
conversations that I loved more
1070
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,880
than anything to this day ever,
right?
1071
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:54,920
We would talk about is there
fucking aliens in the world to
1072
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:59,240
solving the governmental
financial price crisis, right?
1073
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,040
You know, just talk about
anything and everything.
1074
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:04,560
And those were some of my
favorite conversations because
1075
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,640
in my opinion, these were some
of the smartest people I ever
1076
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:09,800
got to be around, right?
They're musicians.
1077
00:54:10,240 --> 00:54:12,680
Sure.
And the cool thing about that is
1078
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,800
the music and the songs that I
was able to come up with from
1079
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:18,320
those conversations.
I wrote a song called Losing All
1080
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,160
the Madness because of post band
conversations about the chaos in
1081
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:23,960
the world.
And it's just then you started
1082
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,600
pulling headlines out from from
different things like, oh shit,
1083
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:29,680
this, this goes along with what
we were just talking about last
1084
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,200
week.
So those those just normal
1085
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,760
everyday conversations have
power if you just let them be
1086
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,200
organic and let them grow and
take their own course.
1087
00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,240
So him and I were like, what if
we turned that into a podcast,
1088
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:44,760
right?
So it's, it's great.
1089
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:46,360
I, you know, that's just
brilliant.
1090
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:49,480
It's what you just said.
I don't know why I thought I,
1091
00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,920
I'm saying this, but I, you
know, I've never looked at
1092
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:56,560
myself as a musician, right?
I, I've always looked at myself
1093
00:54:56,560 --> 00:55:02,840
as a, a singer and I get to play
with really talented musicians.
1094
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:04,160
I tried to tell.
Himself.
1095
00:55:04,720 --> 00:55:05,920
To.
Same way.
1096
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,560
I can play.
You guys are both.
1097
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:12,480
Wrong with Yeah, I played piano,
I played guitar, I played
1098
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:14,760
instrument, I played drums.
But I don't.
1099
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:16,480
I'm not very good at those by
the way.
1100
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:17,920
Let me let me tell you why
you're wrong.
1101
00:55:18,240 --> 00:55:21,160
OK?
I, I hate to disagree with
1102
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:24,080
anybody, but it's a positive
reason for why you are both
1103
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:26,640
wrong.
And Chris agreed with me when I
1104
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:30,880
told him this the first time.
And I know Dave's going to agree
1105
00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:35,320
with me because without you guys
standing up there, there's no
1106
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,080
fucking band.
It's just an instrumentalist,
1107
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:39,560
right?
Where it's a drummer and a bass
1108
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:41,920
player and a guitar player and a
keyboard and however many
1109
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:44,880
musicians you got.
But the audience didn't come to
1110
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:48,760
see an instrumental band.
They came to see Chris perform
1111
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:51,920
his lyrics and they came to see
Brian perform his lyrics.
1112
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,200
That's the reason they came to
the show.
1113
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:57,560
And as long as you guys, as
Chris likes to say, doesn't have
1114
00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:00,840
lead singer disease, everything
works, right?
1115
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:03,720
Yeah, a lot of front men that
just.
1116
00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:08,160
They let that power of.
Without me, there's no band go
1117
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:09,200
to their head.
I was so.
1118
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,040
Axel Rose.
Axel Rose.
1119
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:15,480
Yes, I'm sure I'm guilty of lead
singer moments.
1120
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:17,920
Lead singer Disease.
LSD, brother.
1121
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,760
And the year that I've known
this guy, he probably could have
1122
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:29,720
strangled me several times.
Oh, but, but the beauty, the
1123
00:56:29,720 --> 00:56:35,280
beauty of it is, is that once
you have a bond with somebody,
1124
00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:39,720
and he's like my Big Brother
that I never had, we can say
1125
00:56:39,720 --> 00:56:44,960
anything to each other, anything
as hideous as it is.
1126
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:47,120
That's why I.
Picked up to do this with.
1127
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,080
Ryan, I'm sorry for.
Yeah, smart enough.
1128
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,400
He'll he laughed at it.
He'll call me and and say, man,
1129
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:55,120
I'm sorry.
I'll call him and say sorry and
1130
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,160
he'll be like for what?
Yeah.
1131
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,000
I mean, it was, it was this big
production in my head and.
1132
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:01,680
Him and I both had those
moments.
1133
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,000
So it's it's like, OK, that's
true.
1134
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:05,640
Never mind.
Yeah.
1135
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:07,160
I love you.
Yeah.
1136
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:11,360
The weird dichotomy that Chris
and I have is I'm an empath.
1137
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:16,480
That's where my gift came from.
I get and he always professes
1138
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,120
that he's not.
So a lot of times I'll call him
1139
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,720
up and I'll be like, dude, I'm
sorry.
1140
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:22,600
And he?
I am a super.
1141
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,200
For what?
And I'm like, I was in a shit
1142
00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:26,400
mood the other day, I didn't
notice.
1143
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:30,560
That I dude, I'm a super empath.
I I feel like I'm a super
1144
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:31,320
empath.
Me too.
1145
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:33,280
Yeah, if you're an empath, I'm
a.
1146
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:35,680
Separate empath.
OK, then we're in the same boat
1147
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:37,760
because I feel other people's
emotions.
1148
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:43,760
I'm an ADHD supercharged empath
so I have to be taken down
1149
00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:47,720
notches, probably more than you
know I would like to admit.
1150
00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:52,920
You know, I tell you, music is
it brings us the best to be, but
1151
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:55,440
brings us the worst.
I wouldn't say brings us worse.
1152
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:57,960
It's not you bringing out bad
sides.
1153
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:02,280
Music it music is.
It's such an artistic challenge.
1154
00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:04,680
There's no right or wrong, you
know.
1155
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:08,120
It's learning to deal with those
emotions that Brian and I were
1156
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:09,920
just talking about.
You're just putting it into
1157
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,520
words, Dave.
It's learning to deal with those
1158
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:14,680
emotions as they come to you.
Right?
1159
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:16,480
Yeah.
Because sometimes, like Brian
1160
00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:20,360
said, it's so much information
all at once.
1161
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:23,040
You're like, I can't.
I'm just, I'm one fucking
1162
00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:24,320
person, right?
Yeah.
1163
00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,160
How can I?
How can I process all this shit
1164
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:28,960
right now?
I'm still dying, I'm still
1165
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:29,720
learning.
Me too.
1166
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:31,880
Brother, me too, every day.
Yeah.
1167
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:33,840
And if you guys?
Fail all the time.
1168
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:35,960
So if.
No matter what Brian says, he's
1169
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:39,640
a great team player.
I think we all are because we
1170
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:42,320
know our limitations.
I will load gear.
1171
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:43,800
Me too.
I load gear.
1172
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:45,720
He did, too.
I load gear.
1173
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,480
Anyone went in, they had a
hernia once and.
1174
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:49,880
I didn't.
I wouldn't load gear.
1175
00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:53,760
I'd load gear.
Nobody.
1176
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:56,400
No, that's that's the thing.
You ever now, Brian, you can
1177
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:58,000
agree with this because you're a
singer like I am.
1178
00:58:58,000 --> 00:58:59,600
You have to have an eager to do
what we do.
1179
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:03,440
You absolutely have to have an
ego to step on stage. 100% how
1180
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,640
how many, how many thousands of
people?
1181
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:09,240
Or you know, 10 people.
Because if you, you got to own
1182
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:11,080
your space.
What's the example I always
1183
00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:12,840
give?
Nobody wants to hear Chris get
1184
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,360
up there and go, hey, thank you
for coming out on a Saturday.
1185
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:18,080
We're we're going to have a big
party that's going to be.
1186
00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:21,600
Great, you just said.
You know it is it's holy ground.
1187
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,880
Right.
You're talking about it's sacred
1188
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:28,920
territory and it's, it's how
I've always felt about it, even
1189
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:32,400
as a kid.
I, I I made a deal with myself
1190
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:37,160
when I was seven years old that
I would never get on a stage if
1191
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:41,120
I wasn't 110% in it.
Yeah.
1192
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:45,160
If I'm trying to fake it, if I
know I'm not going to hit that
1193
00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:49,480
high a note in Green Manalishi
or, you know, whatever I'm
1194
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:55,640
doing, I, I don't know that I
could get on stage because I
1195
00:59:55,640 --> 01:00:00,920
can't fake it like that.
I have to be pretending that Rob
1196
01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:02,760
Halford's going to be in the
audience.
1197
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:06,160
And if he's in the audience and
he hears me sing Green
1198
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:10,400
Manalishi, I want Rob to cry in
a good way.
1199
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:15,280
I don't want Rob to leave going.
That sucks, you know.
1200
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:18,720
I always.
Have thought of the audience as
1201
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:22,000
being who's in the audience.
You don't know who's going to be
1202
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:24,480
there.
Even on your off night, you got
1203
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,680
to be good.
We only had one rule, Brian, and
1204
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:30,880
that was that we got up there
and played like it was the last
1205
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:32,480
gig we were ever going to play.
There you go.
1206
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:34,800
We knew that someday it was
going to be right.
1207
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,920
Nothing lasts forever.
We hope it went on for 30 years.
1208
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:39,880
You could die on stage.
Absolutely.
1209
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:46,000
You know what I always thought
too is like Tulsa it it for It's
1210
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,360
not a big city, you know, but
for some reason it's just a lot
1211
01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:52,240
of great guitar players here.
It's probably like that
1212
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:57,240
everywhere, I'm sure, but but
you know, I often think, you
1213
01:00:57,240 --> 01:01:01,240
know, guys talk about like
thinking about the the different
1214
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:03,960
guys that going out playing
tonight, you know, like how do I
1215
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:08,080
go on stage and do my thing?
You know, when, when Steve Pryor
1216
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:11,400
or somebody, you know, these
other guys are so, so awesome.
1217
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:12,440
You know, they're playing
tonight.
1218
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:18,840
And my, my approach to that is,
is was he's not here tonight.
1219
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:22,440
You know I am so.
That's how you have.
1220
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:23,920
To throw it down for these
people.
1221
01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:27,120
And actually, there's the, the
truth of that is from the
1222
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:32,280
audience perspective, nobody
else is there but you, you know,
1223
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:34,400
and, and your bandmates.
I'll tell you one.
1224
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:37,800
Of my so it doesn't really
matter how killer you know some
1225
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:41,480
other bands fact more great
bands around the batter that's.
1226
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:45,160
Funny you say that.
That night, that moment, is
1227
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:47,040
yours, you know.
Take it.
1228
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:49,760
I'll tell you a funny moment
that is bright.
1229
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:52,480
It just triggered a memory.
We were playing at the Mason Jar
1230
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:56,360
one night and I got off stage
and you know, one of the moments
1231
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,360
where it's like I got a piss
right now, so set my guitar
1232
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,480
down, went in the bathroom and
of course, you know, then the
1233
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:03,480
audience starts coming in
because the show is over.
1234
01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:05,760
Yeah.
This guy's standing right next
1235
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:09,360
to me, drunk as fuck.
Of course, God bless him.
1236
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:14,880
He looks over and he says a
fucking great guitar playing
1237
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:17,120
dude.
Fucking you're, you're a
1238
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:21,040
shredder, man.
Fucking lose that belt as gay as
1239
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:23,880
fuck.
I was wearing one of those
1240
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:26,840
studded belts like Judas Priest
used to wear, you know, because
1241
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:29,560
I thought it was cool and I
still stand by it was cool.
1242
01:02:30,160 --> 01:02:32,760
And I was like, man.
I said if that's the best you
1243
01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:35,760
got, man, OK, You said I was a
great guitar player and that's
1244
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:38,080
why I was here so.
I love you, man.
1245
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:40,400
Yeah, yeah.
I just said, hey, thanks for
1246
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,520
coming out and buying a ticket.
We appreciate your support.
1247
01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,720
So, so, so that's a, that's a
good segue to what I want to ask
1248
01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:49,200
you guys.
So, so David, David, I want to
1249
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:52,320
know who your top three favorite
guitar players are of all time.
1250
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:53,160
Oh.
Thank you.
1251
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:58,520
Wow, OK, I'd have to say now,
now, all right, a lot of people,
1252
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:02,080
a lot of guitar players that
argue with me, you know, but but
1253
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:06,880
I I'm kind of come from the like
kind of old school.
1254
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:10,680
It's tough guitar player because
I'm set.
1255
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:13,240
I work so much on creating
songs.
1256
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:15,920
Yeah, but all right, let's just
talk about guitar player, not
1257
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:18,200
necessarily songs, you know?
Yeah.
1258
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:22,800
As far as guitar playing, Jimmy
Page, Stevie Ray Vaughan and and
1259
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:28,760
then Mick Taylor in the Stones
lineup and now Eddie Van Halen,
1260
01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,680
obviously, you know, great
player and.
1261
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:33,360
I love.
This and and even, you know,
1262
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:35,880
Clapton.
I learned, yeah, you just hit a
1263
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:37,120
couple of Mike's favorites.
Too.
1264
01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:41,000
So you speak our language?
Which ones were your favorites,
1265
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,160
Mike?
Stevie Ray for sure.
1266
01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,880
Jimmy Page, obviously those.
Are Mike and.
1267
01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:47,680
Eddie.
You know it.
1268
01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:51,360
Blues don't really turn.
Out a whole lot in in the songs,
1269
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:55,800
you know that we we do that we
write and that we, you know,
1270
01:03:55,800 --> 01:04:02,560
that we play in Duval, but it's,
it's, it's there, you know, it's
1271
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,320
there.
I think there's, there's a few.
1272
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,080
I think some of the phrasing in
the solos.
1273
01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:10,240
I think like Stevie Ray was just
so expressive.
1274
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:14,040
Yeah, yeah, you know, he's like
he's having a conversation and
1275
01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:15,880
thinking of it.
This is phrasing like.
1276
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:18,880
Speaking of empaths.
Or every egg notes was a musical
1277
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:20,680
passage in itself.
That's I think.
1278
01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:24,000
Stevie Ray expressed himself
better than anyone ever.
1279
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:28,040
Eddie might have come close
because it was their reckless
1280
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:31,080
abandoned, You know, there there
was.
1281
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,160
I don't think you could put that
music to a metronome, you know
1282
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:38,760
what I'm saying?
It was those guys swing in their
1283
01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:40,920
field.
They were on time like a
1284
01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:42,480
motherfucker.
I'm not saying they weren't
1285
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:44,360
tight.
They were one of the all those
1286
01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:46,360
guys were the tightest musicians
ever.
1287
01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:49,640
But it wasn't like what I call
typewriter rock.
1288
01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:51,800
You know, ACDC has that swing to
him.
1289
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:57,120
Stevie Ray probably professed
himself through the guitar.
1290
01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:03,320
I agree better than anyone else.
Yeah, it was very, it, it was
1291
01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:05,880
kind of mind blowing.
You know, people say Blues, but
1292
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,960
man, there's a lot of Blues
artists you can, you can go
1293
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:11,880
listen to, but, you know, great
Blues.
1294
01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:15,560
You'll never hear anybody like
Stevie Ray Vaughan, that he was
1295
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:18,360
something different.
I you know, like, I mean he was
1296
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:22,520
Stevie Ray fan and that doesn't
necessarily mean I, I, I sit
1297
01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:23,840
around listen to Blues all the
time.
1298
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:27,080
I have I like some Freddie King
songs and some B.B.
1299
01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:29,240
King songs.
I think they're they're catchy
1300
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:33,000
or they're they're cool and all,
you know, and but I but I do I
1301
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:36,080
will say I like people like dual
Braunhall junior.
1302
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:40,640
He he played Narc angels.
He he's not as well known.
1303
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:42,280
He's out of Austin.
I'm a fan.
1304
01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:46,400
I love that he's really cool
guitar player, man, He just his,
1305
01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:50,600
but he's not Blues either, you
know he's blue Z It's.
1306
01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:53,240
Like Southern rock and the Blues
had a baby.
1307
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:54,360
Right.
Yeah, very.
1308
01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:58,160
That's my kind of psychedelic.
Yeah, very psychedelic.
1309
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:01,520
Okay, so, so kind of so kind of
the same question for Brian,
1310
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:04,520
except from from vocalist
standpoint singers, maybe your
1311
01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:06,680
top three singers.
OK, hold on.
1312
01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:08,320
Can I talk about guitar players
for a minute?
1313
01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:11,320
Sure, absolutely.
Absolutely no, Absolutely not.
1314
01:06:12,320 --> 01:06:13,880
I'm a singer.
I'm going to talk about guitar
1315
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:16,640
players because I have a
relationship.
1316
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,400
I'm obsessed.
Honestly, I'm obsessed with more
1317
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:22,960
guitar players than I am
singers, so I love.
1318
01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:24,800
This guy too, I'll tell you
what.
1319
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:29,080
When I was 10 years old, I
discovered Richie Blackmore.
1320
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:34,080
And.
I in fact had a Memphis Fender
1321
01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:36,560
Strat because I thought I wanted
to play guitar.
1322
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,920
OK, So I did not know.
OK, thank.
1323
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:41,120
Hold on.
I'm getting.
1324
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:44,000
There you're.
Reading you and I we're vibing
1325
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:48,640
right now.
So the first album I got, Deep
1326
01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:51,880
Purple had already broken up.
I had never heard Smoke on the
1327
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:56,360
water, and Richie was already on
with Dio in Rainbow, OK, when I
1328
01:06:56,360 --> 01:07:02,800
discovered Deep Purple Live Made
in Europe 1976 burn mistreated.
1329
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:09,160
When I heard mistreated, I was
on the floor because of the
1330
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:10,480
tone.
Yeah.
1331
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:14,240
Even as a kid I was like, wow,
that something in that tone.
1332
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:17,800
Yeah, it dragged.
My pickup cranked through that.
1333
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:23,920
My soul and all that.
All those bending weird which
1334
01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:26,520
requires.
Such technical precision.
1335
01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:28,120
It's out.
I could talk about it all day
1336
01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:31,720
long, but so Richie Blackmore,
Ace Fraley from KISS.
1337
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:36,120
God bless, God bless Ace Fraley.
You can sing every ace friendly
1338
01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:37,320
guitar solo about.
That right you.
1339
01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:40,720
Can that's really important.
I'm going to say Jimmy Page and
1340
01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:43,000
then Michael Schenker.
Nice.
1341
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:44,840
And Tony.
Tony Iommi.
1342
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:47,360
Tony Iommi.
Tony Iommi from the Black
1343
01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:48,160
Sabbath.
Yeah.
1344
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:50,120
So those are my five guys
singers.
1345
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:53,840
OK, I'm going to, if I have to
pick 33, I'm just going to
1346
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:55,080
randomly pick.
Yeah.
1347
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:56,880
Paul Stanley of KISS.
OK.
1348
01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:00,480
Because KISS is the reason why I
do what I do right now one.
1349
01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:04,560
Of the best entertainers ever.
Paul Stanley and a great singer.
1350
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:06,080
And a great.
I'm going to go.
1351
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:09,840
I'm going to go, Steven Tyler
and I'm going to go.
1352
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:12,760
I'm going to go.
God.
1353
01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:15,280
Robert Plant I.
Was going to say you gotta go.
1354
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:16,439
Robert Plant.
Led Zeppelin.
1355
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,640
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I have many, many, many.
1356
01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:23,560
And those are great examples of
what front men should be though.
1357
01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:24,640
For sure.
Yeah.
1358
01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,080
Yeah.
Man, we have Freddie Mercury,
1359
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:31,200
David.
It's, it's yeah, it's endless,
1360
01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,520
man.
But I just to, to, to me, it was
1361
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:35,520
Morrison.
Morrison got me into lyrical,
1362
01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:38,640
the lyrics and and Marshall
songs, right?
1363
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:41,960
Because, because when right,
because when, when I was in high
1364
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:44,720
school, I had an English teacher
that kind of realized I, I had a
1365
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:46,880
creative side of me.
So she's the one that opened up,
1366
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:48,840
right?
And that's what, that's what my
1367
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:50,840
English teacher did.
She opened up the fact that I
1368
01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:54,439
could write poems and that led
me that when I then I heard a
1369
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:57,040
Doors song on on what was then
classic rock.
1370
01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:58,960
I'm like, holy shit, this is
amazing.
1371
01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:02,840
So Morrison, number one, Bono
and then Vedder because they
1372
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:06,200
just they all just kind of I
like to Bono's presence in the
1373
01:09:06,399 --> 01:09:08,880
in the rattle and hum era, that
kind of part of Bono.
1374
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:11,840
I don't like Bono now.
He's he's he's oversaturated
1375
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:14,399
himself in the world.
He's too political and too like
1376
01:09:14,399 --> 01:09:16,960
just too just fucking stay in
your just stay in your lane,
1377
01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:18,560
man.
Rattle and hum.
1378
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:20,319
Rattle.
Yeah, but Rattle and Hum to me,
1379
01:09:20,319 --> 01:09:24,080
that was that was everything.
Because like you with theatre as
1380
01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:26,560
a major and I was a journalism
major, it's like I I learned
1381
01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:28,880
that music is everything.
I can take the theatre side, I
1382
01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:31,640
can take the lyrical side, the
writing side, the performance
1383
01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:33,680
side and become all the same.
Right.
1384
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:35,160
It is.
Well, he totally.
1385
01:09:35,319 --> 01:09:37,560
Chris just said something.
I'm sorry to interrupt you, but
1386
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:40,399
you just said something that
made a thought trigger in my
1387
01:09:40,399 --> 01:09:42,200
head.
The two songs that you sent me,
1388
01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:47,120
we've all been inundated with
listening to compressed music,
1389
01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:49,399
right?
And being a guy who's recorded
1390
01:09:49,399 --> 01:09:51,600
music, I've never mastered it,
but I've mixed it.
1391
01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:53,800
I've recorded it.
You know, I've been involved in
1392
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:56,120
the studio process for thousands
of hours.
1393
01:09:56,120 --> 01:10:00,280
So I'm listening to your songs
and the first thing I think of
1394
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:02,360
is I fucking hate compressed
music.
1395
01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:05,480
I want to hear the song the way
it was intended to be heard,
1396
01:10:05,480 --> 01:10:07,760
right?
So I put it on my surround sound
1397
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:10,600
and it made it a lot better.
But I still want to hear that
1398
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,840
WAV file, right?
I want to hear the full.
1399
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:14,400
Yes.
Hell yeah, man.
1400
01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:16,480
You want to feel the bass?
Well, thank you.
1401
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:18,760
Yeah, thank.
You so that's that's the way.
1402
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:21,800
Yeah, so there's a good, there's
a good, there's a good
1403
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:23,240
transition because we're over an
hour here.
1404
01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:26,200
So I don't want to, I don't want
to miss how people can find you.
1405
01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:29,040
What you got coming up on your
album drops, if you're going on
1406
01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,560
the road, things like that.
So let's talk first about the
1407
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:33,320
first album from Duvall.
When's that coming out?
1408
01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:39,400

01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:33,680
You.
Well, here's what I'm happy
1427
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:35,720
about.
You guys are the first people,
1428
01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:39,160
and I know everybody.
I totally appreciate that
1429
01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:42,640
compliment and I know all the
musicians that have been on here
1430
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:45,280
have had that same kind of
feeling, but you guys are the
1431
01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:49,320
first ones to say it out loud.
You just made my dream of this
1432
01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:51,400
podcast come true with that
statement.
1433
01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:54,160
Amen.
It's a It makes it so much.
1434
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:57,920
Well, there's AII.
Love talking to musicians?
1435
01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:01,880
Yes.
You reminded me of how some
1436
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:05,560
radio interviews I heard the
questions were like, God,
1437
01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:07,240
where's that?
What is that even about?
1438
01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:08,360
That's why I don't.
That's why.
1439
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:10,680
See.
Yeah, Yeah, you guys remind.
1440
01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:13,480
Me of a band on break between
sets.
1441
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:15,520
You know, having a shot in the
beer.
1442
01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:17,160
Sorry.
No, no, no.
1443
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,480
You're good, man.
I, I, you know, but that's the
1444
01:12:19,480 --> 01:12:21,920
thing.
When I was I had a radio show on
1445
01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:24,600
iheart and I and my producers
would give me shit all the time
1446
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:26,840
because they wanted me to be
focused on.
1447
01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:28,960
It was called Real Talk USA with
the real estate guy because I
1448
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:31,400
sell houses for living.
They wanted everything to be
1449
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:33,600
focused on real estate sales.
And I'm like, that's not how I
1450
01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:35,600
work, man.
It's it's I'd rather have
1451
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:38,440
conversations and get, you know,
when you have a home inspector
1452
01:12:38,440 --> 01:12:40,200
on your show, there's only so
many things you going to ask
1453
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:44,000
them from, right.
But once you start opening up,
1454
01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:47,120
once you have the dialogue, then
it's like, oh, shit.
1455
01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:49,640
Then you learn so much more
about the process and what they
1456
01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:50,440
find.
What instead of.
1457
01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:53,680
Well, home inspection cost 450.
I think you're right with that.
1458
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:55,600
Yeah.
That's your reality, your square
1459
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:56,560
footage.
It's yeah.
1460
01:12:56,560 --> 01:12:59,600
His argument to his producer
was, do you know how dry that's
1461
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:03,200
going to be as a show if I just
sit here and go, interest rates
1462
01:13:03,200 --> 01:13:07,240
are four point. 235 percent you
know you, you taught, You write
1463
01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:11,480
about what you know or what you
don't know and want to know.
1464
01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:14,560
And you, you talk about things
you love and are passionate
1465
01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:16,280
about.
What else is there to talk
1466
01:13:16,280 --> 01:13:19,120
about?
So we have 4 musicians in a room
1467
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:21,480
here, so to speak.
And yes, this is how it's going
1468
01:13:21,480 --> 01:13:23,920
to go.
Because we're telling stories
1469
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:26,080
and we're, this is what we do,
man.
1470
01:13:26,080 --> 01:13:28,800
We're all you know.
You and Mike and Chris and Dave
1471
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:31,200
Duvall and Brian are all on the
same.
1472
01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:35,560
We're in this universe that is
unique to us.
1473
01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:38,400
You can't fake having been
there, done that.
1474
01:13:38,440 --> 01:13:41,720
And if you say you were in a
mafia and you start telling
1475
01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:44,080
stories, people are going to
know right away whether you
1476
01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:47,240
really live that life.
It's the same thing for
1477
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:51,840
musicians, firefighters, police
officers and Chris always likes
1478
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:55,600
to say your life resume, right?
We prefer talking to musicians
1479
01:13:55,600 --> 01:13:58,200
because that's what him and I
have in common for more time
1480
01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:00,760
than anything.
But if we have somebody on here
1481
01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:03,040
that has a cool life's resume as
right.
1482
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:06,760
Whatever, it makes it easy it
It's just when you tell a story
1483
01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:10,240
that's exactly like one of our
stories with the.
1484
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:14,320
Same passion for sure.
Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly.
1485
01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:15,880
So they so you guys have a
website?
1486
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:21,680
I'm sorry again.
So we don't have a website.
1487
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:23,680

I'm Chris.
He's Mike.

01:17:43,240 --> 01:17:45,400
This is this is Dave and Brian
from the band Duvell.
1568
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:49,200
If you're feeling depressed,
suicidal, anxious, you know, go
1569
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:51,240
screaming a pillow, go journal,
go outside and run.
1570
01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:52,760
Go work out.
Do something that's going to
1571
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:55,240
change your mindset.
Don't leave a hole in somebody's
1572
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:57,240
heart because you don't want to
be here tomorrow because the
1573
01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:59,800
world's better with you in it.
Somebody does love you.
1574
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:01,240
Somebody will miss you.
So remember that.
1575
01:18:01,440 --> 01:18:03,720
Text 988 if you can't find
somebody to talk to because
1576
01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:06,120
somebody there is standing by
waiting to talk you off that
1577
01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:08,040
ledge.

1578
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:09,960

Mike show.

01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:53,720
eyes, feel yourself and need
yourself.
1587
01:18:57,080 --> 01:19:02,040
Take a moment, look at you and
see him fight your battle and
1588
01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:07,640
see you bum a queer.
Fight your battle, fight you,
1589
01:19:07,680 --> 01:19:10,360

You've got a dream.

soul in every man?
Take the trail behind your eyes.

Feel the soul evolution now.

Listen to your fear.
Fight your family, to you.
