00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:05,480

4
00:00:13,199 --> 00:00:17,480
thank you. I'm glad I traveled
back before the chaos. Yes, yes,

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:24,199
before the massive tech outage everybody about
Southwest I saw a funny post about

6
00:00:24,199 --> 00:00:28,120
them because they're using a Commodore sixty
four. Their system's running right, yes,

7
00:00:28,239 --> 00:00:31,640
well, very good, very good. And of course today is Saturday,

8
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:36,280
June twentieth, twenty twenty four.
Thank you to our first guests we

9
00:00:36,359 --> 00:00:39,679
had on of course day to attend
in the first hour and second hour purging

10
00:00:39,759 --> 00:00:42,679
Sin. And we also of course
did the world radio premiere of not a

11
00:00:42,679 --> 00:00:47,200
Player, the newest single from our
friend Hope the Rapper and joining us right

12
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,359
now live in studio, Tom Russo
returns for I think was this your third

13
00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:54,759
time on the show, Tom,
I believe it is. Yes, Yes,

14
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:57,479
you've got your guitar and plugged into
a little amp. Pretty sure.

15
00:00:57,479 --> 00:01:00,640
I'm gonna get a robe pretty soon, like you're gonna get members members ze.

16
00:01:00,679 --> 00:01:03,680
Oh yes, yes, a member's
only jacket. Yes, absolutely,

17
00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:07,200
you're all plugged in and ready to
go. Do you want to play something

18
00:01:07,239 --> 00:01:11,719
and then we'll talk a bit maybe. Uh, I know we have a

19
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,560
we had, we had an experiment
that we might even attempt on the program.

20
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:15,799
But uh, I'm curious to hear
you play that. I haven't heard

21
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,200
you play with an electric before.
Yeah, I'm kind of getting used to

22
00:01:19,239 --> 00:01:23,000
it a little bit. I've been
playing acoustic for a long time, so

23
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,040
it's a little different. So I'll
try this. Uh might kind of skip

24
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,840
some parts and do how I want, but you won't know. We won't

25
00:01:30,879 --> 00:01:53,040
know the difference. Right. It's
tough this time of year. They close

26
00:01:53,319 --> 00:02:06,079
a highway down and they don't the
town. And I've been fighting second gear

27
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:19,319
for fifteen miles or so, trying
to beat the angles. And I know

28
00:02:19,879 --> 00:02:28,919
every town worth passing through. But
what good does no one do with no

29
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:42,120
one to show it to. I've
drawn child of traveling alone, tired of

30
00:02:42,319 --> 00:02:49,919
traveling alone. I've drawn tied the
traveling alone. Won't you ride with me?

31
00:02:52,039 --> 00:03:00,520
I've drawn tide of traveling alone,
tired of traveling alone, tired of

32
00:03:00,759 --> 00:03:10,879
traveling alone? Won't you ride with
me? Won't you ride? Won't you

33
00:03:12,319 --> 00:03:27,360
ride? And I quit talking to
myself and listen to the radio A long

34
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:38,719
long time ago, so high I
didn't know myself, just looking for a

35
00:03:38,919 --> 00:03:51,599
day to come when I'll be free. So high the street girls wouldn't take

36
00:03:51,759 --> 00:03:59,000
my pay. They said come back
on a better day, and they just

37
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:13,360
walked away. And I've gone tired
of traveling alone, tired of traveling alone.

38
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:20,720
I've gone tired of traveling alone.
Won't you ride with me? And

39
00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:31,160
I've gone tired of traveling alone,
tired of traveling alone, tired of traveling

40
00:04:31,319 --> 00:04:42,360
alone? Won't you ride with me? Won't you ride? Won't you ride?

41
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:54,319
Mountains? Up? This time of
year, they shut the highway down,

42
00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:05,000
and they don't warn the town.
And I've been fighting second year,

43
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:17,920
for fifteen miles or so, trying
to beat the angry snow. And I

44
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:28,279
know every town worth passing through.
But what good does no one do with

45
00:05:28,519 --> 00:05:41,600
no one to show it to.
I've gone tired of traveling alone, tired

46
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:47,959
of traveling alone. I've gone tired
of traveling alone. Won't you ride with

47
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:58,319
me? And I've gone tired of
traveling alone, tired of traveling alone.

48
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:06,040
I've gone tired of travel alone.
Won't you ride with me? Won't you

49
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,879
m I love it. I love
it. That is great. That's one

50
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,160
of yours. Oh no, I
wish I was. Oh no, who

51
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:27,319
who does that? That's Jason isbel
Oh okay, yes, so I kind

52
00:06:27,319 --> 00:06:30,600
of skipped the bridge. I played
one of his songs on the show a

53
00:06:30,639 --> 00:06:35,240
long time ago, Have I for
Me Up? And you did a song

54
00:06:35,319 --> 00:06:40,519
called have I Done Enough? Or
have I Done Enough? Or something really

55
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,519
good songs. Yeah, yeah,
I like him a lot. No,

56
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,120
that's uh, that's great if you're
just joining us. Tom Russo is here

57
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,160
with us live in studio. I
don't know if you wanted to try to

58
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:53,519
write something live or we don't have
a lot of people in the chat room

59
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,560
at the moment unfortunately, So I
don't know if you wanted to. But

60
00:06:57,959 --> 00:07:00,519
I'll play this, I'll play another
one you are playing. Yeah, yeah,

61
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:01,439
whatever you want to do. Yeah, it's kind of good one.

62
00:07:01,519 --> 00:07:23,600
Here, here we go. All
right. There's a bottle on the dress

63
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:30,800
and by your ring, and it's
empty. So right now, I don't

64
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:40,680
feel a thing. Come tomorrow,
when I wake up on the floor,

65
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:54,879
I'll be a wolver by noon.
That's a difference between whiskey and you.

66
00:08:01,279 --> 00:08:11,639
Come tomorrow, I can walk in
in a store. It ain't a problem.

67
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:24,759
They'll always sell me more. But
your forgiveness, well, that's something

68
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:37,639
I can't buy in a thing I
can do. That's the difference between whiskey

69
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:56,320
and you. Wan's a devil and
one keeps driving me insane at times.

70
00:08:56,519 --> 00:09:09,519
I wonder if themble the same,
and one's alive it tries to hide me

71
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:20,720
from my pain. One's alone gone, be the truth. That's the difference

72
00:09:22,519 --> 00:09:45,759
between whiskey and you. I've got
a problem, bud in what you might

73
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:52,879
think. Will I drink because I'm
lonesome? And I'm lonesome because I drink,

74
00:09:54,440 --> 00:10:11,559
But if I don't break out and
hit it on the head. That's

75
00:10:11,639 --> 00:10:24,279
a difference between whiskey and you.
Wan's a devil and one keeps driving me

76
00:10:24,639 --> 00:10:35,919
insane at times. I wonder if
they bold the same, and one's a

77
00:10:37,159 --> 00:10:48,799
live trying to hide me from my
pen one's alone gone A bit of truth.

78
00:10:52,559 --> 00:11:07,919
That's a difference between whiskey you.
Oh that was beautiful, beautiful,

79
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,960
well done, Thank you? Now
what is that yours? No? I

80
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:18,000
wish I could say that's Chris Stapleton, which, oh, I can't do

81
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,480
anything close to him. Somebody else
had played I think it was. Do

82
00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:26,519
you know Taylor Hughes, he's been
on the show. I think he played

83
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,000
a Chris Stapleton song when he was
here too. Yeah, Like, I

84
00:11:28,159 --> 00:11:31,440
just get inspired by people that are
really good and yeah, yeah, I

85
00:11:31,519 --> 00:11:35,879
can't do it half as well.
No, that sounded great to do everything

86
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,320
my own way. No, I
love your voice in a school here you

87
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,279
play the electric Yeah, thank you. That's that's really good. That was

88
00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:43,559
a good idea. Glad you brought
them. Yeah, it's a little bit

89
00:11:43,639 --> 00:11:46,159
more, you know. And I
know your rock and roll really well.

90
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:50,240
I'm all kinds of stuff. Yeah, I gotta kick it up and not

91
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:56,039
right right if you're just joining us. Tom Russo is here with us live

92
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,639
in studio playing some tunes. And
now, what have you been up to?

93
00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:03,559
Have you been recording new music since
the last time you were on.

94
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,840
Do you have a you have a
new album or what have you? I'm

95
00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:07,600
actually, uh, I have quite
a bit of stuff ready to go,

96
00:12:07,759 --> 00:12:13,440
probably enough to you know, ten
to fifteen song album kidding. Yeah,

97
00:12:15,799 --> 00:12:20,000
so I'm pretty much ready to do
that. Yeah. Yeah, and I'm

98
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,279
gonna I want to write some new
stuff and but yeah, that's kind of

99
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,600
my mission. Right now? Now
will you be when you go to record?

100
00:12:26,639 --> 00:12:30,159
Are you going to do? Who
did you work with or where did

101
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:35,679
you record with the other the previous
Oh so like Mike Clark and Amherst,

102
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,360
Like, I'll probably do a lot
of stuff. I want to get better

103
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,039
at doing my own stuff and recording, like so I can take it yeah

104
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:46,320
there and be like halfway there's yeah, yeah, but yeah, I do

105
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:50,279
a lot with Mike Clark Clark creative. How you doing, Mike, if

106
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,399
you're listening, is that where you
did? Uh? Like should I be

107
00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:58,799
Afraid and sing Hallelujah and everything?
Or should I be Afraid? Was Pete

108
00:12:58,919 --> 00:13:03,360
Peloquin, which from Roots of Creation. He does a lot of work with

109
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,039
them, right, and then all
the other stuff I've done with Mike okay,

110
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,000
and should I be Afraid? Was
that song that I wrote in that

111
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,320
one day. I don't know if
you knew the story of that, right,

112
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,639
I remember you talking about that.
We'll tell us a story again.

113
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:22,159
I just kind of set a mission
to actually had studio time like the next

114
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:28,919
day with Pete, and I kind
of wrote the song the night before.

115
00:13:28,279 --> 00:13:35,480
Yeah, maybe wrote the bridge on
my lunch break, and that's when it

116
00:13:35,919 --> 00:13:39,159
ended up being so yeah, but
I wanted to challenge myself just to make

117
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,960
myself do that. It's like,
oh, I already have studio time before

118
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:48,240
I even know what I'm going to
do. Yeah. So and this song,

119
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,720
of course, it's got a bug
out yeah at the end of it,

120
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,360
which is a cool surprise because when
we played it on the show before,

121
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,639
I remember saying, you know,
it's like you don't you don't see

122
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:01,559
that coming. It's a twist and
yet it fits. Well. Yeah,

123
00:14:03,039 --> 00:14:05,679
it was Mike Doyle. He called
in and he was and he was complimenting

124
00:14:05,759 --> 00:14:07,399
you on it. Yeah, yeah, definitely, I'd say play that one

125
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,600
if you like, yeah, yeah, let's do that. I actually have

126
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,639
it. Uh, I've got it
ready to go because this is also another

127
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,159
one of my favorites. So let's
give this a listen and then we'll we'll

128
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,320
come back and uh, Tom will
play with us, and we'll play some

129
00:14:20,399 --> 00:14:22,840

132
00:14:31,519 --> 00:14:35,519
Is he local? I think he's
now in Keen like I worked with

133
00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:39,320
him before, but I think he's
from Exeter. Oh okay, gotcha,

00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,920
all the time, so many dating
before the sun ross and can't hide it

151
00:19:00,039 --> 00:19:03,319
ever put it feel like it's talked
to fund trying to keep focus, to

152
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,680
see holdless of fin notice in my
getting up in the house and holdest to

153
00:19:07,759 --> 00:19:11,000
try to hold this moment is gone, going with the can before the storm

154
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:15,480
is home, pice thest and reminded
when they came to among a pondus in

155
00:19:15,599 --> 00:19:22,759
mind search of predominance and we mean
it in the silence home that is should

156
00:19:22,759 --> 00:19:27,799
I be afraid? That's Tom Russo
featuring Bockoutoops, and then something else started

157
00:19:27,799 --> 00:19:30,720
playing. Sorry about that, but
yeah, great track, Tom, I

158
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:34,079
love that. Thank you and I
got a really positive response to the last

159
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,279
time we played it when you were
on the show with us. If you

160
00:19:37,319 --> 00:19:40,559
are just joining us on this Saturday
morning, Jenny and I are here with

161
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,799
Tom Russo live in studio. Hey, is is bug out ever come and

162
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,519
perform that live with you now?
Actually I must thought about today telling him

163
00:19:48,519 --> 00:19:52,160
to come here. Oh that would
have been cool. Yeah we should.

164
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:53,960
Yeah, we'll do that in the
future. It would be fun. I'd

165
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,720
love that. Yeah. Yeah,
we've had people, And we've had people

166
00:19:56,839 --> 00:20:00,279
rap live on the show, like
Cody Pope and By they've been on a

167
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,960
few times and they'll they'll do a
lot. Bug Out was in Granite State

168
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:10,680
was his band Okay, which I
think they're all kind of related or not

169
00:20:10,799 --> 00:20:15,440
related, but in the same gang
of people. Yeah. Yeah, so

170
00:20:15,559 --> 00:20:18,039
I think, like even today when
I saw you had Hope on, I'm

171
00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:22,400
pretty sure they know each other pretty
well. Yeah, yeah, most likely.

172
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,200
Well Hope the rapper too. I
mean, he's very good at networking,

173
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,839
so he's yeah, he probably knows
everybody. Yeah right, yeah,

174
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,480
yeah, you want to play you
want to play something for us? Yeah?

175
00:20:33,599 --> 00:20:38,200
Play a cover song? Why not? All right? Here we go,

176
00:20:44,759 --> 00:20:53,960
close your eyes and I'll kiss you
tomorrow. I'll miss you, remember

177
00:20:55,400 --> 00:21:07,359
always be true. And then well
I'm away. I'll write home every day

178
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:21,960
and I'll send on my loving to
you. I'll pretend that I'm kissing the

179
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:33,480
lift side, missing and I pray
that my dreams will come true. And

180
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:42,319
then well I'm away. I'll ride
home every day just to send on my

181
00:21:42,759 --> 00:21:57,359
loving to you. All my loving
I will send to you, all my

182
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:45,880
loving darling. I'll be true all
my loving I will send to you all,

183
00:22:47,039 --> 00:23:03,839
my loving darling. I'll be true
all my loving all my love.

184
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:18,759
I will send to you very nice, very nice. That's a different take

185
00:23:18,799 --> 00:23:23,799
on that, Yeah, probably the
wrong one. No, I like it.

186
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,720
I like it. You could just
say that wasn't very good. No,

187
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,799
No, it's cool. Last night
on Retrospectrum radio show that I'm a

188
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,480
co host on on Friday nights from
my eight to eleven Polly See the hosts,

189
00:23:37,519 --> 00:23:41,920
he played McCartney doing let It Be
at Live Aid. Oh wow,

190
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,880
because it's like the fortieth anniversary of
Live Aid and or thirty ninth anniversary,

191
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,640
I should say. And it was
interesting because when McCartney played that, you

192
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,079
know, just him and the piano, and then he had a few people

193
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,920
come out and sing backups, like
David Bowie. But but you know,

194
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,039
but he really kind of does it
differently, you know, when he's just

195
00:23:59,079 --> 00:24:00,519
sitting there, you know, he's
loose with it. He's kind of playing

196
00:24:00,559 --> 00:24:06,000
with it all the time, like
I mean, and Paulie see, he

197
00:24:06,039 --> 00:24:07,519
didn't like the way McCartney did it, But I thought it was cool.

198
00:24:07,559 --> 00:24:11,960
I liked it. I thought you
know, it was because he never he

199
00:24:11,039 --> 00:24:14,920
hadn't had a chance to actually play
it out with the Beatles, right because

200
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,839
they never you know, they broke
up before they had a chance to go

201
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,359
on tour or anything and play that
live. But but I liked his take

202
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,039
on it. No. I think
it's cool to, you know, take

203
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,200
songs like that and kind of put
your own what's your own spin on it?

204
00:24:26,279 --> 00:24:29,799
You know. I mean probably most
of the time I put my own

205
00:24:29,839 --> 00:24:33,160
spin. It's just I don't know
all the chords, right, so I

206
00:24:33,319 --> 00:24:37,599
just adapt them to how I do
it. Yeah, yeah, but no,

207
00:24:37,759 --> 00:24:41,920
I I like I played that song, you know, and it's hard

208
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,359
still to do like and you design
people, Well, it's not really hard,

209
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,440
but you remind people like it's like, that's a simple song. But

210
00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:52,559
he sings it right, Yeah,
when I sung myself, you know,

211
00:24:52,799 --> 00:24:57,440
but when it comes up to the
high part, yeah yeah, yeah,

212
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:02,160
it's a pretty high note. Actually
sang that once at a vocal recital.

213
00:25:02,839 --> 00:25:04,400
Oh you did. Yeah, I
didn't do it very well probably, but

214
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,200
I want to try it again.
No, come on, I do not.

215
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,440
I do not. It was a
long time ago. But now so

216
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,480
the electric do you do you play
that live usually or you've only just started

217
00:25:18,519 --> 00:25:26,160
to do this, So I got
a bunch of these these Fender Telecaster acoustica.

218
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,680
I think it's called Okay, but
it's kind of a hybrid like half

219
00:25:29,839 --> 00:25:33,599
acoustic. You know. So I
haven't done this yet, but if the

220
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:41,119
difference that sound, if I wanted
to kick it down, yeah, so

221
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,759
I can get a dirty sound like
yeah. So, but I've been playing

222
00:25:45,799 --> 00:25:48,960
that acoustic for you know, twenty
something years, so it's really weird for

223
00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:52,680
me to get used to this.
But right this is probably only in the

224
00:25:52,799 --> 00:25:56,599
last like three months. Ohkid,
Yeah, so I'm really trying it out.

225
00:25:56,799 --> 00:26:00,359
Yeah. No, it sounds great. It sounds great. It gives

226
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,680
a little more uh, it just
gives a little more soul, I think

227
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,440
you. Yeah, are there songs
that you play on that that you don't

228
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,240
play on the acoustic because they just
work better on that. No, I

229
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:17,039
kind of play everything on everything,
but it's it's it took me a bit

230
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,000
to get used to. The strings
are a little different, right like so,

231
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,480
and you know with the acoustic,
I'm used to just kind of beating

232
00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:26,720
on it, and this this I
kind of have to be a little bit

233
00:26:26,799 --> 00:26:30,799
more precise. Yeah that makes sense. Yeah, I don't know if you

234
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:45,319
can sing this one? Rescue me? Come full the speed to me,

235
00:26:47,319 --> 00:27:00,839
raise me up and let me fall. No man is mine and me my

236
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:18,720
own hands and prison me. Love
rest to me. Many strangers have I

237
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:30,839
met on the road to my regret, Many lost who seek to find them

238
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:45,880
selfs in me. They asked me
to reveal the very thoughts they would conceal.

239
00:27:48,240 --> 00:28:04,200
Love redsking me. Then the sun
in the sky makes a shadow of

240
00:28:04,319 --> 00:28:18,319
you and I stretching out to the
sun in the sea. Yeah, I'm

241
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:33,839
here without a name, in the
palace of my shame, love ray excuse

242
00:28:34,039 --> 00:28:51,400
me. Sha la la cha la
lah sha la lau ja la lah sha

243
00:28:51,559 --> 00:29:17,200
la lah sha la la. Yeah, palace, oh mash as love really

244
00:29:18,559 --> 00:29:30,680
excuse me? Hm, that was
really good. I was tempted to come

245
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,319
in on the shallas, but I
didn't. I'm gonna tell you I wrote

246
00:29:33,319 --> 00:29:37,720
all the I'll be more impressive.
That was you should man. Yeah,

247
00:29:37,839 --> 00:29:41,319
yeah, I thought about it for
a second, but I skip. All

248
00:29:41,359 --> 00:29:48,200
the verses get meshed into each other, like so do people ever notice,

249
00:29:48,279 --> 00:29:49,559
like when you play live, does
anyone ever come up to you and say,

250
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:55,160
I noticed you played that like way
different than than the original? Yeah?

251
00:29:57,079 --> 00:30:00,720
Yeah, And sometimes I just take
they think they give it to me

252
00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:03,640
as a compliment. Yeah, like, but for the most part, it's

253
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,400
probably like, well, I just
don't want to keep the verses arranged,

254
00:30:06,599 --> 00:30:11,160
right, No, I think it's
cool because it makes it It makes it

255
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,400
more interesting, you know, right
to just I just kind of still do

256
00:30:15,559 --> 00:30:18,400
it however I want. Yeah,
then nobody can tell me I'm doing it

257
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,799
wrong. Really, yeah, Well, because I think it's more interesting.

258
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:23,319
You know, if I'm hearing a
song that I've heard a lot, you

259
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,960
know, and obviously you played a
couple of things that I wasn't you know,

260
00:30:26,039 --> 00:30:29,880
that I hadn't heard or hadn't heard
enough to remember who they were.

261
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,839
But if I'm hearing something I've heard
a lot, I think it's cool to

262
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,880
hear a different take on it.
You know. It's kind of like how

263
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:40,200
I've always felt about like cover bands, you know, they they try to

264
00:30:41,119 --> 00:30:45,119
play things exactly like they sound when
the original artists, because that's what people

265
00:30:45,279 --> 00:30:49,640
seem to want. Just tapping yourself
really yeah, to me, it's like,

266
00:30:49,759 --> 00:30:52,720
I know how the original goes,
I want to hear your interpretation of

267
00:30:52,839 --> 00:30:56,200
it, you know, right,
and if you're if you miss a note,

268
00:30:56,319 --> 00:30:57,920
like uh, I did have one, Lady that was really mad at

269
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:02,960
me one time, really for turn
the page. Apparently I screwed up a

270
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:07,960
lot of those lyrics. Oh you
know versus here I go or there I

271
00:31:07,119 --> 00:31:15,640
go, and she's like, you're
singing it all wrong. She did not

272
00:31:15,799 --> 00:31:18,480
punch me. But that's good,
you know that type of thing, you

273
00:31:18,559 --> 00:31:22,640
know. Yeah, yeah, I
go, you know, because I'll kind

274
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,000
of bumping that up. Really,
Yeah, you hear that one. I'm

275
00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:29,039
curious now, Yeah, let's do
it. I do want to hear it.

276
00:31:29,119 --> 00:31:37,160
Yeah. Oh, I was gonna
say, if you can't find it,

277
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,599
we can probably dig through those dig
through those seat cushions. I bet

278
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,000
there's pics in there. If you're
just joining us. Oh, I bet

279
00:31:44,039 --> 00:31:45,920
that's a million. If you're just
joining us, Tom Russo is here with

280
00:31:47,039 --> 00:31:51,400
us live in studio, might as
well do it. Yeah, No,

281
00:31:51,480 --> 00:32:19,400
I want to hear it now.
Definitely. All along Lonely Highway east of

282
00:32:19,519 --> 00:32:25,759
Omaha, you can listen to the
Engine Morning How is one long song.

283
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:34,480
You can think about the woman,
the girl you knew the night before.

284
00:32:39,359 --> 00:32:47,200
Your thoughts will soon be wandering,
weir they always do. You're riding sixteen

285
00:32:47,319 --> 00:32:54,839
hours, there's nothing much to do, don't feel much like traveling. You

286
00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:10,039
wish the trip was through. Here
I am on the road again. There

287
00:33:10,119 --> 00:33:21,599
I am up on the stage.
There I go, playing star again.

288
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:44,440
There I go turn the page,
walking to restaurm strung eye from the road,

289
00:33:45,599 --> 00:33:50,119
you fill the eyes upon you.
It's just shaking off the cold.

290
00:33:51,599 --> 00:34:05,119
You pretend it doesn't bother you,
but you just want to explode. Sometimes

291
00:34:05,359 --> 00:34:10,119
you can hear him talking. All
the times you can't. It's the same.

292
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:17,119
More cliche. Is that a woman
or a man? You all whispere

293
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:32,320
live numbers. You don't tell me. Here I am on the road again.

294
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:45,239
There I am up on the stage. There I go on the stage

295
00:34:45,360 --> 00:35:13,280
again. There I go turn the
page. Later in the evening, if

296
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:22,360
you lie awaken bed with the echo
from the amplifiers ringing in your hand,

297
00:35:23,199 --> 00:35:30,239
you smoke about seven hundred and sixty
five cigarettes, you forget what she said.

298
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:49,079
What Here I am on the road
again. There I am up on

299
00:35:49,280 --> 00:36:01,920
the stage. There I go playing
target. There I chearing the page.

300
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:34,760
There I go, there I go
in the page. Oh I love it.

301
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,360
Thank you. That is my favorite
version of the page that I've heard.

302
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:42,119
For real. Really, that was
really cool. That was really really

303
00:36:42,159 --> 00:36:47,199
good. Bumping everything up like you
just gotta bump bumping. It's like dazzling

304
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,599
stuff, you know. No,
that was amazing. That was amazing,

305
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,599
and I certainly like it better than
Metallica's version. Of course I didn't like

306
00:36:53,679 --> 00:36:57,239
Metallica's versions. I just have to
keep the beat. And I don't have

307
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,159
anybody in my band just other than
me. No, but that was was

308
00:37:00,199 --> 00:37:04,360
really good and I didn't notice any
wrong lyrics. Oh well, we could

309
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,000
go back and study and we could. I can show you like uh.

310
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,960
But so speaking of that, and
by the way, you have an invitation

311
00:37:12,119 --> 00:37:15,599
in the chat room here. But
first I want to mention so Dan Fallon

312
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,840
from the band Run Like Thieves.
They've been on the show Jenny and I

313
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:22,199
went and saw them and conquered not
long ago. A great, great band,

314
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,880
and Dan is amazing. But he
was saying that means you did a

315
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:30,400
good job if someone is mad regarding
the woman who is mad. So there

316
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:36,440
you go, there you go.
But Dan also said, Matt, can

317
00:37:36,519 --> 00:37:40,360
you tell Tom that this Sunday night
and and next from six to eight pm,

318
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:45,280

Piano Bar, and Grill would love

319
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:54,760
to have him featured at the next
one and oh and uh Dan also said

320
00:37:54,880 --> 00:38:00,440
like like Tom Petty. Oh,
it's like Tom Petty meets Bob c love

321
00:38:00,519 --> 00:38:05,920
it, Tom Petty one. If
you'd like to hear another, are you?

322
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:07,559
Yeah? We can? I think
we can. We can do one

323
00:38:07,599 --> 00:38:13,400
more, yeah, if you want
to do it. But but anyway,

324
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,000

sure I pass along that invitation for you.

in through space, I saw an angel,

329
00:39:12,599 --> 00:39:24,440
I saw my fate. I can
only thank god it was not too

330
00:39:24,599 --> 00:39:58,920
late. Over oceans A flooded away
and I wished only things are better than

331
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:20,519
today. I fall loot an angel
down through the gates. I can only

332
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:29,679
thank god it was not to lay. I can only thank god it was

333
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:40,880
not to lay. Sing a little
song, a loneliness, sing one to

334
00:40:42,039 --> 00:40:50,639
make me smile for another round for
everyone. I'm here for a little while.

the real deal, and Isaac Banks says

340
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:09,760
he is rocking it so very good. Very I like to think that the

341
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:15,000
great thing is like I really my
whole life really don't know what I'm doing.

342
00:42:15,119 --> 00:42:20,280
