Welcome to the second of April. No fooling around today, no pranking.
All right, five thirty one on this Tuesday, April second. My
name is getting Young. My name what woo? What I heard this last
week? I said, I got to drop that in My name is Oh
we did yesterday we watched us. My son's watching Stranger Things, so I'm
rewatching. And in the third season, the mayor is played by what's his
name from the Princess Brian and Wesley. Oh, Wesley carry elves and so
Bobby's like, that's Wesley, and I go, he's not the same character.
That's great, that's Heatherfore that you're listening to How's motherhood. It's the
greatest in the whole world. Well you got two boys? Yeah? I
do have two boys. Do you have two boys? That was starkingly accurate.
Pete mackenzie, what's happening, btty? What's happening? How are we

a lot. It's a lot. You know, WHOA Do you need me
to do that thing that calms you down? I'm all these people. It's
okay, we're not gonna judge. No, right, would never do that
in public. Ever. Whatever's going to keep you calm and buttoned up?
Take care of you? Yes, right, just as long as I do

And of course the talkback feature iHeartRadio app free download and you can talk back
to us with that feature too. There's a little red microphone there. Click
on that. Leave us a voice message. It's send been light lately.
I do have a topic for discussion. I'll bring it up at seven point
forty. But I was in a pub when I was in Ohio. I
was scrolling through my phone and I forgot i'd taken this video. The weirdest
pub restroom you've been in, Like, and let's not go down the road
of you know, strip clubs, but just you know, walking into a
restroom. Not that it's filthy, it's just the weirdest experience I've ever had.
Side note, because I'm a woman and when I've been to strip clubs
mostly for work. Yeah, but I've been to them and the women's always
beautiful, beautiful, Yeah, very clean. They smell like vanilla because people
who were using them tend to be the employees. So I've only ever been
in really nice strip club when when you say you did it for work,
it was for radio stations. Okay, it was the only time, right.
No, I mean my uncle was a DJ at a strip joint,
so I went into his too. Did you work there? No, I
just went and visited him while he was working. Welcome Summer. No.
One of them was one of the former gladiators. She was like Diamond or
she was super nice and tiny. But yeah, so it was your uncle,
A little strange, little work comedian. He was a comedian, but
he was really good at DJing, did he He didn't run the strip club,
no thous He ran the music for the women who were dancing and probably
introduced him right. And honestly, you were Kevin could have done I mean,
I see Kevin probably have doing it more, but you would have been
fine at doing the same thing. Yeah, and then you know some sugar,
they picked their own songs, so it's really that hard work. But
yes, like that. Wow, all right, so reach out to us
on the talk back feature meet up with Summer in the champagne room, bathroom
exactly exactly. Well, I just I would like you to know that nothing.
I had another day of First of all, that shooting that we talked
about briefly yesterday and brocked in the twenty seven year old ass he was killed
by his brother. That's what they're Easter Sunday. Yeah, oh, in
the middle of the like like a two in the morning or something. And
then the two other guys that were arrested were arrested because one of them hand
like they have video. Remember everything's being recorded. There's a recording of one
guy handing him the gun, him walking in and then he walks out and
hands the gun to another guy who puts it in a car or something like.
It was like a very so weird. Just love each other, especially
family. Oh yeah, creating great memories for the family on Easter Sunday.
Yeah, I mean the headline is brother named gunman, two others arrested.
It's all they're gonna remember every Oh, it's just And then the driver was
killed in Foxborough involving a tractor trailer. You see how that one rolled down
that was once scary, That was right about a mile away from Gillette,
Like the car just he must have been either on his phone or talking down
or fell asleep, went right under it. He went right under the All
it's just a and then two people shot overnight in Brockton, and there's just
there's so many and but no one won power Ball. So that's what I'm
saying to you. Now, I don't have to make the vomity noise at
the end of every story because we still have a chance for a billion.
Oh yeah, I woke up to her. You know, I leave my
wife a little note when I leave every morning. Well, she left me
one last night because she stayed up when I went to bed and it said,
uh, I know we have the winning ticket. I know it.
And then I was like, I hate to tell you, so I wrote
my note this morning. I said, PS, nobody won, but there's
still a chant. Yeah, a chance. Yeah. It's the lex weather.
Cloudy with a little rain later this afternoon highs in the forties, windy
and rainy tomorrow mm highs again in the forties, forty one degrees. In
Boston. I'm Heather Ford on a one hundred point seven double z X Boston's
classic rock. You know that's your only fans problem, right, Yeah,
I was. I am Kenny Young. It is five forty and I was
busy looking at the estimated numbers of Denise Richards. You know, a former
wild Thing star actress in Beverly Hill's Housewife. She's on that show. I
think Umbravo, you would not believe what she's raking in from her only fans
page. Well, I know that best part about it is that her daughter
started doing it and Pete, would you say she's making two hundred thousand dollars
a month. Her twenty year old daughter, Sammy Yes once described herself as
a sex worker recently and Both Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen were outraged by that
statement. But then Denise Richards got herself an only fan. She did,
she does, and she's bringing in two million dollars a month. Funny that
Charlie Sheen is outraged about anything. Well, if you've seen him recently or
heard him talk recently, he talks about being sober and how nuts he was
before. So he's turned a corner. Well, I mean you got to
give someone a chance afterwards, yes, or you've gotten off of the drugs
and alcohol and the tiger blood right, it was all fueled by drugs and
alcohol. So he's a very different person when you interview him now. He
says her being on OnlyFans the daughter would never happen under his roof, under
anyone that's winning winning, Hey, let me tell you what's happening today here

From a Planet Fitness WCLX Studios, Horizon Sile. Now, now, thanks
for making that part of your morning headlines with Heather great Store on seven WCLX
Boston. I think Kenny and I were just like investigative reporters because I saw
this headline and so we started looking headline is this is an awful headline by
the way, just popped up cruiser battling a six alarm fire in East Boston.
And so then I said, Kenny, where's Meridian Street? And he's
Boston. Because at five o'clock, so fifty seven minutes ago this fi fire
broke out right by five point thirty. It was a six alarm fire.
Ooh, that's a lot of fire quickly. Yes, so I think,
and I think we assumed because it was burning so fast, because it's spreading
to other buildings. This isn't residential. No, it looks like it's a
commercial area down there. And it's like two blocks over from the water,
so it's it's very close to a there's a forging and welding place, there's
a marine construction, there's some apartments down there. But yeah, it looks
commercialized. Yep. So it's just I mean, I don't I don't know
if you're traveling in that area, but Meridian Streets closed. So if you
were that one person listening to us right now who is trying to go to
that area. Just keep that in mind. Other news that we could talk
about, but we'll choose to ignore. People shot overnight and Brockton a driver
killed in Foxborough. It looks like they just drove their car right under a
parked semi I mean, it was horrifying to look at the gunman that they're
looking for for that shooting on Easter morning was a brother of the person who's
dead, and two other people have also been charged with accessory. So and
thanks for ignoring those stories. But I'm gonna, i mean, like,
get into it and play audio from them. They haven't caught the brother from
what I understand. Yeah, there you go. Super fun creating family memories,
just one story at a time. The good news was that power Ball
has no winner. It's bad news if you thought you were winning yesterday.
It's good news to tell you you still have a chance. Pete, you
mentioned over a billion right now, it's at one point zero nine billion dollars.
Yeah, and that'll only get bigger, I'm assuming, yes. So,
And what I also want to tell you is that I am looking for
eclipse glasses if anybody has them. Yeah, he's also my story for the
morning. My daughter said she was going to send me some or a husband
boy, but they haven't. So I'm gonna get a welding helmet. They
got to be selling them somewhere. I have a welding helmet. Okay,
I need four of them, is what I need. Yeah. Also,
I had to stop my husband from going on a trip to Buffalo for one
day to go see it. I go, I don't think that's reasonable.
But you know, we'll get into that later. I guess. I think
we're going to talk. It's a long way to go. If somebody wants
to see it with in Buffalo the kids, he wants to take my children
with go to Vermont. Yeah, well, I mean to see the total
one in Vermont. I think you have to go more than an hour.
I think it's more like three hours to get to Yeah, to get to
the totality. But I do also want to get the T shirt that says
this totality rocks Still. I'm all about getting funny T shirts. I bought
Bobby a T shirt the other day as a trombone on it and said,
sorry I tooted. It came from my brass. Yeah that's what I do
now. I just buy T shirts like that. End of WHATID what's going
on in the news, So yeah, yeah, there was also a teacher
charged with the rape of Chuck. I want to hear more about these T
shirts. You do. I'm sure I'll buy you one if you could.
I bought my two first classic rock t shirts on vacation. What can you
even guess the band? You don't buy shirts at concerts that we go to.
Never I'm guessing one of them's bon Jovi. No, it isn't Bruce
Springsteen, led Zeppelin and Nirvana. Oh you went to Target, I did
got them. Yes, they do have the lex weather clouding with a little
rain later this afternoon highs in the forties, windy and rainy. Tomorrow high
again in the forties, forty one degrees in Boston. I'm heather Ford on
a one hundred point seven w z LX six seventeen forty one degrees mixture sun
and clouds, I guess, and then some rain expecting to roll in right
and then well, I guess all hell's a pop in, dependent upon where
you live. Come, come tomorrow, Come Wednesday. Yeah, as rain
and drizzle will turn to a mixture, a wintry mix in some spots.
But it looks like ski country. The mountain region is going to get hammered
from Yeah, northern mass maybe one to three. I think we're going to
be fine. Yeah, and again I have him still haven't put the snowbrush
away, so thereas not two jinks. The operation that's supposed to be coming.
Let's talk about our instagrams here for a second. All right. At
WZLX, of course our station, every week Wednesday through Friday, we give
you a chance to win your ticket to rock and starting Wednesday, when your
way to see Slash at Leader Bank Pavilion. He's bringing this blues festival.
It's called the Serpent Blue Blues Festival. Slash is a big Snake fanatic,
as you know. So he's got all kinds of special guests lined up and
he's going to be playing tracks from his upcoming blues cover album August first.
So when your way in on our official w zx instagram against starting Wednesday.
But I did a little dig in I found this was interesting. The most
followed Instagram personalities like the highest number of Instagram followers. I'll give you a
hint. The first two come from the world of sport. So who would
you guess is leading the pack with six hundred and twenty four million soccer player?
Probably Ronaldo Ronaldo. Cristiano Ronaldo with six hundred and twenty four million followers
is the second one of soccer player too. Is it messy? It is
messy? And uh you speaking of messy, I did read last week too
that they're expecting when he makes his visit to Foxboro already sold out. Yeah,
they're going to sell that stadium out. Oh yeah, Heather's tickets could
be worth a fortune. I'm in the seventh row, right in the middle,
actually right behind him if he's on the bench or you know, I'm
right behind. Is Miami a good team? I assume they are. Yeah,
they're a good team. I mean because of him and other players they
brought in from his other team. But yeah, would you ever play?
Though? I might, but I don't even know if he's going to play.
We have turf. Is David still one of the owners of that team,
the Miami team? So yeah, we have turf. Yeah, So,
I mean soccer players don't want to play on that. You fall on
concrete, you get hurt. You're not wearing padding a right, So how
many games has he usually missed? Most? Most? I don't know,
he's just you know, it's only been like a season and a half that
he's been with him. So yeah, so coming at number three. Now
we get into music. Taylor Swift, no lady, I thought, yeah,
Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga Beyonce. No, Beyonce is further down the
list, but coming in at number three in the list four hundred and thirty
million Instagram followers Selena Gomez probably not only due to we're singing, but you
know, only murders in the building. Yeah, a great show, I'm
sure boosted those numbers. And then a bunch of the Jenners and Kardashians,
which I don't need to get into. Dwayne the Rock Johnson at number five
with fun three hundred and ninety eight million. My I'm gonna I'm gonna do
do myself a disservice, and I'm going to tell you how many followers I
have right now on the Instagram. Why why would you do that? I
don't even know. With a whopping one thousand, nine hundred and twenty seven
followers, let's go, you're almost a two thousand. You know, if
you want to follow me and get those numbers up, I'll get into Kardashian
territory at Kenny Young z Lex and then all of a sudden, you're making
money, right, Kenny, That's how that works. Yeah, Pete Underscore
Mackenzie on Instagram. Heather loves Ford, Yeah, you did a pug post
we're gonna have to share on the zlex page. Oh really, did you
do a p I did yesterday? I reposted one of the ones where because
when I walk in my house now, the great one, great Dane is
at the top of the stairs at the door, the other ones in the
middle, and the pug's the one barking at the bottom. He's the only
brave dog in my house, right, so he's our protector. The other
two might lick the offenders to death. No, no, they'll kill them,
but they'll just wait first. They'll let the pug sacrifice. Six thirty
now on this second of April, forty two degree. Oh we got it.
We got a guy here for you. Huh. This guy being chased
by a saw blade, a four foot concrete saw blade. And was it
unbeknownst to this gentleman. Uh, yeah, he had no idea, he
had no idea this was coming. He's wanting into a liquor store and this
four foot saw blade pops off and contractors concrete saw and goes. I'm just
dying screaming at the front door of this liquor store. I'm snickering because thank
god, nobody could hurt by this, nobody got hurt. Freak accident,
okay, I mean four foot four foot saw blade goes embedded into the door
jam two feet, so I would have just ripped him up. It would
have gone through the man's body totally. He just barely got inside the door,
heard it coming across the parking lot and turned around and looked to see
it coming at him too. Four foot concrete saw came flying down this parking
lot and landing right here, just inches from the door, seconds after somebody
had just walked in. I mean, obviously it wasn't my time. Probably
the closest I've ever experienced it. So I was walking into the store here,
put my handle on the door, and I heard it a loud bang
and yelling over here at the corner, just as a cloud of smoke pops
up, and I see a guy falling to the ditch and a four foot
blade hurling at me as him walking through the doorway. Unbelievable, Like when
you I watched this video pribacely six times already. I mean, no sooner
does he get into the liquor store? Yeah, income oh yeah, you
gotta send that to you. I'll just google it. So how about the
smoke and a guy falling in the ditch. It's like Larry Curly and Moe
where the contractors and there the saw blade. Oh but then you hear the
guy and you remember what story went into, right, Oh my god,
cheers all night. Yeah, it was. It was touched by. I
was I was shaking in the story. Did you hear what he said?
Touched by? Its touched by an age, touch by one more time,
it was touched by. It was terrifying, toutrifying. Oh my god,
it's huge. Yeah, yeah, well four feet Oh my god, that's
like three quarters your size, Heather, Oh my god. Right, reporter
of the best kappra on this though a little bit great talk. Despite his
near death experience, Remke says he'll continue to shop at the liquor store that's
his neighborhood spot. Right. And meanwhile across the street, Oh my god,
oh yeah, I need to get I need to get Jack Daniels beans
a blade that bait. Right, that's my next question. Why isn't it
protected? Why is somebody pulling in a ditch? That's a case of divine
intervention. Oh my god, you're dead, right, I mean that's what
saw blade comes through your body. You're dead. You're done? Oh done?
Yes, So I got you'd be able to stop the bleeding on that,
I know. I got to think. And when I heard the beginning
of this second cut here, oh God, cheers all night. By the
way, I just googled saw Blade across Parking Lot and it was the first
video of the game. If anybody's curious as to how close this man came
to be in two men, google it. It's an easy find. Holy
yes, that was horrifying, exactly. Oh God, I'm cheers all night,
which only led me to one conclusion. Right, that's off Elks one
hundred point seven w CLX Boston's classic Grog. You don't know, but you
could know the story behind that song and many many others. Roger Daltrey brings
a somewhat storytellers type of show to Leader Bank Pavilion on June twentieth. This
is cool. I don't think he's ever done something like this before. Uh,
mostly acoustics, some electric and lots of storytelling in between. So it's
like the uh, you know, the stories behind the songs and the legendary
Roger Daltrey, who, incidentally, I think just turned eighty and you'd never
know it because he still belts it. It's it's unbelievable him, Mick Jagger.
Uh, these guys at that age, what they're doing. I mean
Paul McCartney, he's eighty one now, I think too. They can still
do it, they can still hang, they can still build it out.
So good on you boys. There's another venue I'd like to tell you about,
and that's the MGM Music Hall, Fenway and to Lansdowne Street. I
still have not physically been inside that building. I thought you went to a
show there. I didn't. I went to a road Runner over in Austin
Brighton. Oh but yeah, some reason I thought you'd been there already.
No, No, I went to road Runner, which I've been told is
like a smaller version of MGM Music Hall. But I've heard nothing but great
things about this van. You're not a bad seat in the house, no
matter where you sit, You're close to the stage, great acoustics, great
concessions. There's a rooftop bar up there. Yeah. A little bit high
in the prices for drinks is what I've heard. Oh yeah, oh like
twenty dollars ooh, you know for a mixed drink. Okay, that's what
I've heard from. So it's like Fenway prices. Whether it's true or not,
I don't know, never been there, but I feel like I have.
So bring your on one of those running water bags that you can lay
against your body. Yeah sure, right, Yeah listen, Since those drinks
are expensive according to Pete's intel, here reconnaissance, we're gonna save you some
money so that you will have more money for drinks, and that is by
giving you your ticket to rock. It's Rock the Hall week. So three
times every day this week we're giving you a chance to win your way into
two different shows. We're gonna rotate ticket giveaways. Yesterday we started with the
Black Crows at eight ten. Today at eight ten will be Judas Priest.
All right, speaking of older vellas that can still bring it, Rob Halford
still has that voice. I don't know how he does that, honestly.
Uh So yeah, eleven ten is your next opportunity after that and three ten
in the afternoon with Chuckburn. Do this every day this week, Rock the
Hall with the MGM Music Hall, Fenway and ZLX you know from a Planet
Fitness WCLX Studios. Now, thanks for making us part of your morning Good
Lines with Heather. Great story, Thank God one WCLX Boston. So I
was I don't remember what I was doing when I was eight years old.
I was like first, second grade, third grade. I was fat,
Okay, there you go. You remember some of what was happening at eight
years old. I was learning how to aim in the turlet, aim in
the turlet. So there's an eight year old golfer from Massachusetts. He's going
to compete in the World Championships eight Yeah, I on Sandu is up.
He's up for the challenge, according to his dad. But I don't remember
what I was up for when I was eight years old. I mean,
you know, is that second grade? Third grade? So I mean it's
like little, I mean when but when you talk about how young he was
when he started then they're interviewing his father, Uh pretty, it said like
a Tiger Woods feel to me, because remember Tiger Woods was on TV at
three years old with those little tiny golf clubs, and his father had,
you know, put him on like the local news station to say, look,
how my three year old hits a ball? Yeah right, right right?
This has that same feel to it. Oh, like like the kid's
been forced by his no. I think I think you really, I think
really liked golf. I think this kid really likes golf. But he started
young, good shot. His dad, Harp, would bring him onto the
golf course while his mom, Jasmine, worked twenty four hour shifts at the
hospital. I had a big red luggage belt that I will tie so that
around him so that he doesn't fall out of the car. Change on the
golf carts. His diapers are literally changed on the golf carts because he was
playing even when he still had diapers. That's how little he was. So
I mean, if you the beginning part was he goes. I had a
big red luggage belt that I would tie around him so he wouldn't fall out
of the luggage cart. It sounds like he learned how to tee a ball
up before he learned how to go poo poo. Yeah, shoes, so
it's they're from Long Meadow. There was a golf club in his hands before
he could walk, his father said. And so now he's in the twenty
he'll he he's in the New England under Armored Junior Tour Champion, or he's
is the New England under Armoured Junior Tour Champion at the age of eight,
and we'll be playing in the Junior Tour World Championships in July. Close as
I could come to that is I have nephew out in Iowa, and I
remember from He had to be four five at the time, and he always
wanted to go with his dad golfing, so we'd have to wedge him in
between us. We didn't have a luggage belt like that guy, so we
would put Mitchell in between us. And then when we got up to the
green finally and we finished up the whole, we would call out Mitch or
his dad would say, all right, come on out, you can putt.
And he taught him how to putt first and kind of worked his way
back to the teeth. And now the kid's like twenty five and smokes all
of us on the golf course. So good, he's so good. One
of the things. So that fa. There's two other things from the article
that I pulled out. One of them I liked. He said, even
if a game doesn't go well, he keeps his demeanor. This eight year
old, he has a calmness. He just knows that, Okay, next
time I'm going to have a better game. The part I kind of questioned
was he goes. Golf has taught him life lessons. He's got maturity,
that's great. I mean he's eight, so I don't know what kind of
maturity you need. But he goes. When he was young, he had
stranger anxiety when he was young, right, But but stranger anxiety, which
is something I want my children to have. I don't want them to go
get in vans with they kid, I got some candy. So then he
goes. Since he started playing golf, he could go out there and literally
talk to anybody. That's great. I'm glad he could talk to anybody.
But I think children, especially eight year olds, should have a slight sense
of stranger anxiety. Yeah they don't. You don't want them to walk off
with people. You kind of like it when they're like, I don't know
if I were gonna deal, it's called it's called being able to survive.
You better keep that red luggage strap handy. You can't keep him strapped all
sorts of things. Again, eight years old, this tall person. Just
watch the video. Incredible for it, like tough, oh yeah, yeah,
sick ed. He wears white pants. The World Championship. I mean,
I know he's eight, but and I heard I heard the final step
to qualify as he had to learn to tie his own shoes. Right.
Yes, no, they have belcrow Z the Lex. Weather cloudy with a
little rain later this afternoon, highs in the forties, windy and rainy Tomorrow.
Hi's again in the forties forty one degrees in Boston. I'm Heather Ford
on one hundred point seven double u Z X one hundred points seven US.
The Alex is Boston's only classic rock morning show. I don't know about you.
Whenever I hear the intro to that song and instantly brings me back to
the cool ass video that Tom Petty did where it was the Alice in Wonderland.
He was the mad Hatter and then ended up she turned, she was
turned into a giant cake. Do you remember that video? Oh he lost
that hat in the house fire, didn't he? I think he did.
And then I remember too when the archives, remember there was like a record
label archive warehouse that burned down. It was all kinds of stuff in there
too, you know, Oh he lost a town of master tape. Remember
the hat from that the half loss exactly seven forty two degrees. Looks like
we'll kind of have an okay start to the day and then some rain moving
in later on this afternoon before the big cold spell snaps us in the face
on Wednesday. But let's get onto a greener pastures. Showing you're Boston Red
Sox. I gotta tell you, five games into the season, you ready
for this. Five games into the season, Red Sox starting pitchers have compiled
thirty seven strikeouts against their opponents. That's not us striking out, that's us
striking them out. Well, they're making ulievable. They're making a statement for
opening day capacity on Tuesday the ninth. Yeah, so they're I know,
I know they're building a strong case. So Tanner Hawk got the call in
the mound last night, six innings, pitch, three hits, no runs
allowed in the nine to zip victory, socks over the a's ten k's for
Tanner Hawk, and he was just dealing last night, trying to fan him
again, and he does with that slider. That is an absolutely filthy pitch.
Filthy I think the batter had to change his pants after that play.
I'm not entirely certain, absolutely filthy, catting, absolutely how about Jaron Duran
making Red Sox team history with five stolen bases in his first five games to
start a season. No other Red Sox player has done that. Wow,
some history being made. Nice to see Raffie Devers back in the lineup.
He had this wacky shoulder issue that he suffered last weekend in Seattle, so
he seems to have rebounded. He was back in the lineup. He did
go for three, but hey, he's back there playing. So Tristan Cassis
did well as two for four on the day. But yeah, it's nine
runs, I mean, strong starting pitching. Who are these guys? Yeah?
And from the other dugout the Oakland A's who are moving to Las Vegas.
As far as we know twenty eight right, they still have more protesters
outside the stadium than they do fans inside the park. Well, I'm glad
you brought that up. I looked at the two hour and thirty one minute
game last night. Attendance was listed as six thousand, six hundred and eighteen
at the Oakland Stadium. Yeah, and that Oakland Coliseum has a capacity of
like sixty some thousand, between sixty and sixty five thousand. It reminds me
of being a kid in old Cleveland Stadium when they'd have like three thousand people
show up for an eighty thousand seat stadium, and would they do what look
like for it looked like three hundred were there. Would they do what Oakland
does and put covers over the seats? All the empty seats? They forded?
Getting me well, speaking of a four, how does Oakland like a
ford to keep the lights on and pay staff? Nobody's going to these games
in Oakland. It's crazy TV revenue. Okay, yeah, I mean MLB.
I mean some some teams are richer than others, but they all get
that money from the TV. Yeah, so yeah, Pete, As you
mentioned April ninth, the Big Sox home opener versus Oriels and uh yeah,
an interesting week here leading up to the home opener, so very cool.
Ghosts still can't name the starting nine, can you? No? And it
keeps to be rotating. You know Trevor's story. I can throw him out
there people in the city, en Or Sadien Raphaela. He had another big
game. This kid has just barely made the team out of camp and he's
made significant impact already. So as I say, ghost socks Meanwhile, in
another event of epic proportions, this is the Lex thirty ninth Birthday Bash.
Thankfully it's not going to be in Oakland this year. No Leaderbank Pavilion out
on the HAB Saturday, August twenty fourth. Still a few tickets remaining.
Livenation dot com we got bushes your Headliners sets by Jerry Cantrell and also Candlebox,
So grab your tickets before they're gone and join us to celebrate thirty nine
years of another Boston classic, Boston's Only a Classic Rock morning show. One
und points that WSLX Heather, do they play that selection during Rev's games on
the PA. No, because every time I go to Gillette they play play
that song during Patriots games in between plays and halfs and stuff like that.
We have a DJ, and is there like fan favorites that he always plays
when you go sometimes? But I don't remember, Like I don't know right
off the top of my head right now, if there's any like theme songs
that they bust. I mean, there's no there's no timeouts, so everything's
that's playing the whole time like they're playing the whole time, so there's no
music in between things. Any signature walk out for the team. H Yeah,
they walk out too. It's like a like marching music almost as they
come out, Oh, like orchestral or band kind of. Yeah. Nice,
nice seven forty four forty two degrees. Now it's gonna stay mostly cloud
as you can see most of the day, and then showers moving in later
this afternoon, this evening into tomorrow, which is supposed to be what a
higher thirty eight and rain and then freezing rain and they're getting the crappy weather
out of the way for the eclipse. Yeah, let's go, let's clear
that out because I took a peek at next week and as of right now,
it's looking pretty damn nice. Bason. Yeah, so yeah, let's
do this right now. So what's going on with Boston's only classic rock morning
show one seven w ZEX. I forgot to mention to you guys that on
my way back from Ohio on Easter Sunday, ten hour drive, we stopped
for one meal and for the first time ever, I had to try it
because Heather's mentioned how much your husband John loves it, the Popeyes chicken sandwich.
Oh, and I would put the Wendy's Chicken sandwich up against Popeyes really
pretty close. I mean I would I would say I enjoy the Wendy's Chicken
sandwich better than the Popeyes. Nice. I think he just likes it more
than the Chick fil A. Then the Chick fil A. Okay, so
I put Dave's Hot Chicken ahead of Wendy's. Dave's Dave's Hot Chicken. You
know there's one out there, and we're thirty really around here, okay,
all right, yeah, Dave saw chicken. They got something there. Okay,
Well that was my Easter Sunday dinner, by the way, a Popeye's
chicken sandwich. Yeah. And so the other thing I forgot to tell you
guys was during that week I did manage to go out. My niece works
at a pub in Cleveland. It's called All Saints Public House. You can
look it off there. It's you know, it's kind of creepy. It's
All Saints Public House. Maybe because it's built next to or near a church,
I don't know, Okay, but dark it was delicious food. But
I'll tell you I can't remember what I even ordered what because when I walked
into the restroom at this place, the men's room wasn't he in a sex
am I on the right site right here? All Saints Public House? Yeah
you don't. Yeah, I don't remember seeing that big picture there is it?
That's what it says. Maybe it's the outdoor area is there? It
might be. It might be. But anyway, in the restroom when you
walk into the men's room, it's all themed around Satan from All Saints Bar
in Cleveland, Ohio. It could be the weirdest restroom I've ever been in.
I like the metal music playing, so posted the video on Twitter.
There's all kinds of Satanic references in the because it as loud in that bathroom
as it sounds like it's yeah, that's it, Heather, that's so.
It's a nice looking bar. It is a nice bar. It's got upstairs
downstairs, they're not going to show Wow. I don't know what the women's
room looked like because I was too I don't know why I never asked my
wife, you know, with the women have sent her into do recon I
think I can. When I came back to the table, there was some
other conversation going on, so I was I was sitting shock. Really when
I walked out. They have blood on the hand sanitizer little unit there.
There's a blood splatter on the mirror when you're looking in the mirror. It
was just weird. Man. It's all just red lights, all red light
the video you posted on Twitter here, everything that's on the wall in there
is themed satanically. Oh it's your bars. They're just I guess they're just
having fun. Possibly could have come up with this concept. Was it satan
Yeah, it could have been. So didn't ruin my meal or anything,
but it was a really different experience. Maybe they do that so that guests
don't spend too much time in the bathroom. I could get in there,
take care of your business, and get the hell out. Well, how
dirty it is single person restroom too, so you can lock the door behind
you. Many moons ago, the strangest restroom I can recall, and the
name escapes me of the bar because we visited many in New York City and
we went in and the only bathroom in this place. It was kind of
an upscale joint too. There was one giant unisex bathroom and it was all
stalls on one side and then all a battery of sinks on the other obviously,
and It's the first restroom I've ever been in where when each door would
open, it was like Monty Hall, let's make a deal. You never
knew who was coming out of that door. Was it a man or a
woman? And it was like I just had never experienced anything like that.
I was like, I felt like I was in the women's room. The
first three people I see came out of there were women, and I was
like, am I in the right place? Yeah? The only unisex bathrooms
I've seen are for one person? Yeah? No, this was multi.
I think there was six stalls in this place. That's the weirdest one I've
ever been, just because I felt like I was in the wrong. I
felt like I was out of place, you know what I mean? Yeah,
yeah, you would. It would definitely feel awkward. There's an awkward
feeling in that rush tream for sure. So, Heather, if you ever
through the Cleveland area, yeah, I guarantee women's side's got to be a
heavenly theme. I don't think so. Not having looked at all the pictures
of the bar itself, I think it was probably the same. Yeah,
I'll tell you similar. That's the vibe of the of all the pictures.
It's kind of a dark kind of real. I don't know. It look
cool, right, it's cool place, cool place. And there was an
outdoor area too that you might be able to go to next time you visit.
Oh yeah, pretty good. Well the other thing I remember is they're
doing an eclipse party there because Cleveland's yep, so it's Buffalo to Fatality.
So yeah, they're doing something satanically themed there, I'm sure. Yeah.
The End Times times right, seven fifty now here on this Tuesday, listen,
we can send you to some more cheery times. That's right coming up
at eight ten. Rock the Hallway continues at eight ten. We'll get you
in to see Judas Priest on the twenty fifth of this month at MGM Music
Hall, Fenway. Three times in all today will be giving away your ticket
to rock. It's either Priest or the Black Crows from ZLX from a Planet
Fitness w CLX Studios. Now, thanks for making that part of your morning.
Great story one seven w CLX, Boston. I'm gonna just flip through
my calendar my as Kevin used to call it, my sex diary, keep
everything logged in as to what's happening in my life. But also it's the
place where I keep everyone's schedule in my family, So try to figure that
one out. I'm just looking at July. So July fourth is a Thursday.
Yes, indeed, Pete, not to get I don't know if it's
a secret, but you're not gonna be here that week. Great, so
I'm gonna be here and Kenny is. But Kenny, you're also gonna take
off the fifth, which is a Friday. Really, I'm I'm not taking
off yet. I'm not sure if I'm gonna be told to take off for
what's gonna happen, or if it's just gonna be me pushing buttons. But
I did see something about the fourth, since I'm gonna be in town,
I don't know about you two, and it's the headline on BEZ this morning.
I'm old, so this appealed to me. How you can win a
spot aboard the USS Constitution on July fourth. This might be my year to
nerd out completely on July fourth, and just kind of you know, I
don't know. It's a lottery. By the way, it's going into the
harbor and one hundred and fifty people plus one guest will be randomly selected to
join the crew on July fourth, and then you'll get to learn about it
and get a front row seat as the crew fires a twenty one gun salutant
onnor of Independence Day. I say, yes, if you've never been on
it, it's a great day to go on it. Yep. I've been
on it once. I have been on a tour. Yeah. Yeah.
I mean everybody goes on it, and then it's I'm sure it's a school
trip for almost every kid in the area. Everybody goes on it when their
cousin is the ship's doctor. Yeah, doctor ned I only have two cousins,
you have a thousand. Yes. See, like the doctor from Cannonball
Run, Well, he was in the Navy and he was posted there.
He was on it for six months. That's he goes it was the worst
job you ever had, because nobody ever got sick. You know what?
Uh, you know what floored me about the Constitution when I went on it
is the lower deck where the sleeping quarters were. Yeah, the bunks were
just stacked up like Illigan's Island, but there was just so many of them,
and it was like such a low ceiling. I couldn't stand up down
there and I was like, how did these seamen? How did they sleep
down here? Rocking back and forth? No way, I could never have
done it right, crankled up legs and they were shorter than you. I
mean it was just nuts. But anyway, So there's the lottery is open
as of today. It's on the USS Constitution's Facebook page and other sign it's
just for us old people, and it's also on their Instagram and it'll be
open until May second. So yes, yes, I will be putting my
name in there, and then I don't know, everybody's gonna have to fight
to be my guest. And by fight, I mean I'm gonna have to
find someone we'll go with me. Yeah, if you do get on it,
make sure you check out the brass and copper fittings on there, because
you were just at the Northern Spy restaurant I was this past week. I
was there on a Friday, All Revere copper mill that made those you know,
fittings, fasteners that made it so sturdy, or old iron sides made
it so sturdy when people were firing cannonballs at it. Can I raise a
practical question about the lottery to watch the fourth of July from the constitution.
Uh huh will there be cocktails available? Probably not. It is a naval
ship. Okay, then I'll leave my spot open for someone else. Can
I only sneak nepts board? I can you? I don't know how about
a tankard of ail. I was just thinking your cousin must have been there
in the like the not the touristy months, because I feel like even while
we were on the ship, a tourist got sick because of the heat,
right, so it was the only evil tall I remember him saying, was
there was nothing to do because nobody got sick. By the way, another
lottery that happened, Powerball. No one won, so it's over a billion
dollars. So it's bad news if you thought yesterday was your day. But
it's good news in the sense that nobody won, so you still have a
chance. And by you, I mean the three of us, So good
luck to us and not to anyone. Well old GOP loses. We did
z lex weather cloudy with a little rain later this afternoon, highs in the
forties, windy and rainy tomorrow. How's again in the forties forty one degrees
in Boston. I'm Heather Ford on a one hundred point seven double u ZLX.
You all feel like doing some singing? No, well, these people
do so rolling Stones with the London Bach Choir. Listen after they get done
singing, you better be singing into your phone at six one seven, nine
to three one one double oh seven Rock the Hall Week continues after the Stones
here at eight ten, give you a chance to win your way to see
Judas Priest did the MGM Music Hall Fenway, So good luck after the Stones
one hundred point sead of that w u zl EX Boston's only classic rock morning
Show eight twenty one forty two degrees. I just saw a disturbing statistic roll
across the screen during the weather report here. Thanks Shery. She's just a
messenger, and so am I. Apparently after a few breaks of the white
glowing orbit, I'm sorry, the yellow glowing orb in the sky the sun.
We're not going to see the sun again allegedly until Sunday due to this
nastiness that's coming in, So just be prepared for yay rain, April showers.
Yeah, it could be worse. It could be falling on Monday,
which is Eclipse Day. Wants that nobody wants that clear skies and we want
to experience darkness in certain parts of the country. New England. Yeah,
so uh yeah. Driving back from Ohio, there's digital signs on the highway
in New York. The New York threw away Eclipse eight four expect delays,
so a lot of people are going to be there. Rochester, I think
is totality. I wonder if the highway is going to look like Woodstock up
there, where cars are just pulled over on the side of the road,
Right, that's what's gonna that's what they're afraid of. Like in Ohio,
they're shutting roads down, Yeah, because they don't want people getting in accidents.
My husband is taking one of my kids to Buffalo. One of them
is like, no, I'm staying home. The other one's like, no,
we're going. So they're going to go to Buffalo to watch just go
to Burlington. Well, that's that's just about as far. I no,
what's twice as long. But what's four hours? Isn't it? Up north
to Burlington it was three and a half hours, three hours and forty five
minutes to get there, and to get to Buffalo is about six hours.
It's still a long drive. It's still a long drive. But I did
look at the weather and he is right, it's going to be just sunny
in Buffalo and around New England. There's going to be clouds. Yeah,
I mean it's not going to be it's not gonna be like this, but
it's going to be sun and clouds. So it's going to be a different
view. Yeah, And I'm like, I don't want. I mean,
it's such a long trip to go just see the sun go black for a
little bit and then go back. It's cool, it's big. I understand.
I'm not like everyone this time. I mean, we had one in
twenty seventeen. We did yesterday. He goes, He goes, this is
the last time in my lifetime. I go. We didn't get as excited
for the last one, right, we're so excited now. The wife and
I dragged camp chairs out into the sideyard because that faces southwest, so like
that was the supreme viewing place where we literally put a couple of camp chairs
and we had our little magic glasses and we looked a bit and it was
partly cloudy that day, so it was just obscured white, you know.
Yeah. The governor from Maine Janet Mills. I think their electric signs say,
their digital signs say eclips eight four, arrive early, stay late.
So they're using it like tourism. Yeah. No, and Vermont spend money.
They put up extra like towers so that people could, you know,
talk about it on their phones and send out pictures and blog about it.
It sounds like they're listing the date europeanly eight four. It's four to eight
April eighth. Oh yeah, yeah, four eight eight, No, No,
four to eight. You're right, because you look at Europe and they
always put the date of the month first. It's like you know what I
mean, Yes, I do. Here's Mills. We expect tens of thousands
of people to travel to Maine to enjoy this incredible event, and we couldn't
be more excited to welcome them. But we want to make sure too that
residents and visitors alike enjoy the eclipse safely anywhere in the state of Maine.
Anywhere in the state of Maine you can enjoy it, so we shouldn't stare
at it just without any protective eyewear. Right, I'm picking mine up at
companies today. Didn't we get to talk back? Yeah, listen to This
guy had the advice earlier. Hey, you have a you can get the
eclipse lashes at comonin bombs. They have them by the cashas nine a piece.
I saw them in Massachusetts and in Rhode Island. You guys rock on,
we shall rock on. Yeah. How about the guy. Did you
guys see this guy in the news out of New Hampshire. Rick Eames is
his name, Emes. He is an eclipse fanatic who's turned his uh,
his roof on his vehicle into a way to watch the eclipse. Oh yeah,
so you know it's at it is. It isn't paint like the entire
hood of the car with an e. He did that too. He's got
that theme going too. Yeah. So Rick Ricky Ames here, he is
very very excited. Yes, so this on the hood. This is a
total solar eclipse. This is a total solar eclipse. It's a composite.
I mean, you can find a solar eclipse wherever Rick drives his Dodge Challenger
around because he literally turned it into the Eclipse Mobile. The final upgrade we're
doing to the Eclipsemobile is we're going to transform the sun roof, the moonroof
into an eclipse roof from the hood to license plates and what's in the trunk.
Rick takes his mobile classroom around the state to educate people on the science
behind the eclipse. So for us, CLUSS was in session and then you
hold it up in front of you and look at the sun. That's why
I love the eclipses, because they're peaceful. The last whole solar eclipse in
the United States was in twenty seventeen, but the last time New Hampshire was
in the direct path of one was sixty five years ago, which Rick missed
because he was born a year later. I'm extremely excited that it looks like
we're going to have clear skies. That is very, very exciting. Two
things. One, my friend Andrea just texted and said they have them at
Lows. It sent a picture of all of the glasses they got for the
eclipse at Low's, so if you want them there. The other thing was
in my defense to my I'm going to go back for a second, to
my husband, yeah, four years ago or whenever this happened before, eight
years ago, I don't know, whatever I said. Hey, the totality
is going to be pretty sharp all the way through, like Vermont top of
New Hampshire in Maine. Let's go camping that day and we'll make a trip
out of it. And no one followed up with me, even though I
said it a number of times. So we had a plan, right,
I had a plan when it first happened. What's driving at this time?
I don't know. I have no idea. I need to know what's going
on. I mean, what's happening. Man, he's very excited about it,
though, very very excited, very very exciting. Here. I would
also like to wager a guest that he might have a cut a human containment
well in his basement, dugout, Well, you just gonna throw that.
I want to avoid him. He's going to be in Pittsburgh, New Hampshire
Monday. Wow. I will be getting a colonoscopy on Monday. Oh so
that's yeah, yes, right, Well, if you'd like to get excited,

Brockton scored those Jim Brewer tickets. We'll have more tomorrow in the Classic Rock

else that's starting up today, and it's big, huge, So New Orleans
Jazz Fest has some huge names of their own this year. And when don't

So IHEARTRADIOWZX. We want to send you to Jazz fest, along with
a guest airfare, five nights Hotel Grand Marshall VIP passes for the second weekend

LX nine twenty one forty two degrees. Enjoy the dryness while we can,
because yeah, it's going to be getting wet. I guess later this afternoon,
this evening, and then tomorrow what was the high tomorrow thirty eight something
wacky like that, still going to be in shorts getting I yes, y,
there was some old days last week, and I continued to I just
ran briskly from the front door to the truck and the driveway and then from
the garage parking to the door here. So I'll continue to do that and
just lay her up. Okay, all right, we're in long underwear with
the shorts, So what's what's the difference. That looks good? Okay,
some chuck of boots, Yeah, that'd be good. I noticed Caitlin Clark
powered her Iowa team into the final four for women's I was in Iowa curious
to see. Yeah. I know, the viewership's gone up because of her.
She's like Tiger Woods was to golf. I mean, she's a course
of nature. Yeah, totally. Did you see the thing about her that
ice Cube was offering five million dollars to be in history? And I said
it to my father, like because he was over for the week, and
I was like, that's a good idea for her to make all that money.
And he goes, no, she can't do that, then she might
disappear. And I go, first of all, name one other women's college
basketball player right now, of them past her present? And he couldn't.
And I go, everyone knows Caitlyn Clark. I go let her make money
because the starting salary or the highest salary for a WNBA player is like two
hundred and seventy five thousand dollars a year. Yeah, she get five million
dollar do that? And if you come back. What are you coming back
to? Two hundred and seventy five thousand dollars a year? That's fine.
Are they going to say no to Kaitlyn Clark after she goes placed the household?
Namerake while the iron's hot? She's the only female college basketball player anyone
can name. Nine threes last night nine nine, yes, nine three dear
forty one points. She got an IV because she's been so sick before that
UCLA game. That's how sick she was. Clark, She's plus assistance on
these Kaitlyn Clark threes. It's just ridiculous. It is. I mean these
threes because I watched the highlight that you sent me. She's jacking them from
between half court and the three point line. Oh, she's downtown, she's
beyond the NBA three point line. Yeah, she's throwing these up. Yeah.
So the other thing I was curious about was ticket prices. But it's
not a real fair combination because you know, for the final fours, the
opposing final fours for the men's and women's, because the men's is played in
a sixty three thousand seat arena and the women's is being played in a twenty
thousand seat arena. So you know the ticket prices are going to be higher
with Caitlin Clark. Well, the demand yeah right, everyone wants could fill
a sixty thousand If she was in the final against USC they might be able
to Carolina, but they didn't feel like they could test those waters yet.
This didn't know if she was going to make it right, right, So
the ticket prices are higher for the women's final four than they are four by
quite a bit. So that starts seven seventy four right for the women's ticket
price two forty two for the men's Is that the average average? Wow?
Yeah? And their tournament starts on Friday, the final four, right,
yeah, Friday, and then men's Saturday. Yeah, so Friday and Sunday
for the final yeah, and Saturday Monday for the men yes, great mm
hm. So yeah, Iowa's got Yukon, and that women's team is phenomenal
as well. I mean, I got the men's going all the way,
but the women's team they're gonna give Iowa a run on a Yukon always as
good. Yeah, women's basketball, you could you could conceivably have a Yukon
NC state final in both the men's and women's no one wants that. Are
you going to be placing a wager on that? No? No, no,
Well, I'll tell you one thing. My in laws are going absolutely
nuts up in Iowa for this name. They're Hawkeye fans anyway, but the
last few years with Caitlyn Clark here, they're just uh yeah, sure,
run it is it is. You're we're witnessing greatness here. And just remember
what the good man said. Chilepeb is one hundred point seven w z LX,
Boston's only classic rock morning show, eight forty nine now forty two degree
ease, Let's get a young Pete McKenzie heather Ford. So, Chili Pepper's
drummer Chad Smith has been tapped along with Lars Ulrich of Metallica. They're going
to be testing their fate in the upcoming Spinal Tap two sequel. Yeah yeah,
So there's a bunch of notable guest appearances that's gonna happen in this new
one that they're working on right now. It's in production. Paul McCartney,
Elton, John Garthbrooks, Questlove and Yes, Chad Smith and Lars Ulrich now
added to the cameo roster. But incidentally, need I remind you of the
fate of the past four Spinal Tap drummers. He died. He died in
a bizarre gardening accident. It's really one of those things. It was best
leave that unsould really. Yeah, and he was replaced by Stumpy Joe Eric
lost. He died of The official explanation was he choked on vomit. He
was actually someone else's vomit. Next Stumpy's replacement, Peter James Bond. He
also died in mysterious circumstances. It was tragic, really, he exploded on
stage. He just was like a flash of green light and that was nothing
was left that was fake. Well, there was true, truly. There's
a little green glob you will on his drum scene. Several you know,
dozens of people spontaneously confused each year. It's just not really widely reported.
Yeah, so good luck to Jet Smith and Lars Ulrich have to be the
next drummers. Maybe Chad has a Will Ferrell stand in for him for that.
Yeah, he might need a stunt. I'm very excited about it though,
love me some spinal taps. So to hear that the original cast and
uh, you know, Rob Reiners back on board too. I was very
excited about that news. So we'll have to wait and see. It's in
production now. As I mentioned, what else is in production The Carter Allan
program. He's up next here ten oh seven coffee break on the way.
He'll have your next Rock the Hall opportunity when your way to the MGM Music
Hall family three times every day this week, so next up at eleven ten,
Carter will have your ticket to rock for Judas Priest on the twenty fifth,
and then Chuck will have your Black Crows hook up at three ten this
afternoon. And that's all, folks, bed bed bed. I've that's off,
folks, good job, well done, cheerio, I'm bye, but
now over you say over. Boston's only classic rock morning show return tomorrow morning,
five thirty to ten till then think about doing the same with me,
McKenzie, heather Ford and Kenny. If it stops, what's stomping it and
