23
00:02:13,039 --> 00:02:15,199
I saw it online. It has
a parental advisory on it, so

24
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:20,280
I'll have to make a radio at
it. It was to be honest.

25
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,960
Yeah, but yeah, no,

00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,800
that Eric asks who we play at
the end of it, so we'll do

here, you're here, somewhat sort of

39
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,199
kind of Man, I'm still recovering
from the week That's that's all I said.

40
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,400
Yeah, you've been You've been working
hard, You've been working hard.

41
00:03:20,599 --> 00:03:23,360
This weekend was one of those weekends
where it's like you look back and you

42
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,479
see how hard you've worked, and
I was like, damn. I did

43
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:32,639
two different parties to very different Yeah. On Saturday, I was at the

44
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,360
Farm for the first beginning of the
night to do their costume contest. Also,

45
00:03:38,759 --> 00:03:42,199
I'm never judging another costume contest.
No, I felt like the most

46
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,879
hated person in the room. What
I don't know, man, everyone wanted

47
00:03:45,879 --> 00:03:49,120
you to like their costume. Yeah, man, it wash. It was

48
00:03:49,159 --> 00:03:51,560
insane. Man. I went to
the Farm and then I was supposed to

49
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:55,639
judge six so three's costume contests and
promote the new Friday nights. I got

50
00:03:55,719 --> 00:04:00,639
there super late because the farm was
packed until twelve thirty. Ah. I

51
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,719
was like, I can't leave.
You should clarify what the farm is for

52
00:04:02,719 --> 00:04:06,159
people who are not from the bar
in Manchester. Yeah. Yeah, because

53
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,080
you know there's a guy in New
York City who makes a lot of claims

54
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,360
about what we do at the farm
or on the farm. So you know,

55
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:16,279
you just want to clarify that for
people. Don't give don't give that

56
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,439
guy any ammunition to use in his
videos. Oh boy, I haven't heard

57
00:04:19,439 --> 00:04:23,240
from him in a while. I'm
glad he's not talking about me no more.

58
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,680
Man, Oh you really am.
I think your name still comes up

59
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,920
once it was. I believe so. I believe so. And uh,

60
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:33,199
speaking of so, we're gonna make
a little bit of an exception too,

61
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:39,120
speaking of people we don't talk about
anymore, I'm actually going to talk about

62
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,560
someone we don't talk about it anymore. I guess it's okay to talk about

63
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,680
him because I do want to acknowledge
I did hear from the People's Mayor,

64
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,439
glennar J Willlett, and he sent
me a song. I don't know if

65
00:04:48,439 --> 00:04:50,879
we'll have time to actually play it
on the air because we have a very

66
00:04:50,879 --> 00:04:56,160
busy show today. But he did, he did reach out to me and

67
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,680
uh, and I thought this was
nice. So I think we can Uh,

68
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:05,439
let's see hi, it's been a
long time with the help of Jay

69
00:05:05,519 --> 00:05:09,720
and myself. I don't know who
Jay is. A song called Come What

70
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:15,319
May is rewritten and dedicated to Matt
and Jenny. The theme is depression as

71
00:05:15,399 --> 00:05:17,040
winter comes around again. Hope you
enjoy it. If you want, you

72
00:05:17,079 --> 00:05:21,519
can play it on your show tonight. Take good care of yourself and Jenny.

73
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:28,120
Keep loving him in good times as
in bad love you both. So

74
00:05:28,199 --> 00:05:30,240
that was from glennar J. Willett, the People's mayor. So about this

75
00:05:30,759 --> 00:05:33,839
very nice. I haven't listened to
it yet. Would you like to hear?

76
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,519
Would you like here a little bit
of it? I don't know.

77
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:40,360
The theme is depression. It's long, so it's like six minutes long.

78
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,240
So we're not gonna play the whole
thing. American Pie by Don McLean,

79
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,439
absolutely not. Yeah, that's uh, well, so I'm assuming that.

80
00:05:47,759 --> 00:05:51,240
I mean, he didn't say it
in the message, but my assumption is

81
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:56,879
that this is sort of Glenn's American
Pie. This is the glenar J.

82
00:05:56,959 --> 00:06:00,120
Will Let American Pie is heard in
a lot. I know. Well,

83
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,000
yeah, we don't really talk about
him anymore because things kind of got sideways

84
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,360
there for a bit. But yeah, but obviously he's, uh, you

85
00:06:06,399 --> 00:06:11,560
know, he's feeling nostalgic for us, and so I think we can But

86
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:20,920
what this part's acapella apparently global ah, dedicated to Matt Content. No,

87
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,079
that's very nice. I can't all
right, that's enough. That's very nice.

88
00:06:25,079 --> 00:06:29,680
Well we got to hear a little
he can't do it anymore. Well,

89
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,079
thank you. That's a nice question, Matt Content. And I hope

90
00:06:33,079 --> 00:06:39,439
this song will somehow help him.

139
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,440
Networks. Thank you, well what
well? A lot of people heard it

140
00:12:37,519 --> 00:12:41,000
here first. But Glenn, if
you're listening, that was very sweet.

141
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,960
Thank you. That was very nice. That was wow. I mean a

142
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,480
total surprise, I will say for
Glenn singing the same thing I always used

143
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,240
to say about Gonzo's impression. What
he lacks inaccuracy he makes up for with

144
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,120
enthusiasm. Matt, I just have
a few questions for you after this.

145
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,080
Yes, how did that make you
feel? What feelings did it provoke?

146
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,080
No? Honestly, that was very
sweet. That was that? That was

147
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,480
very sweet. I was a little
alarmed, Matt. I mean we I

148
00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:07,960
mean we you know, we chuckle
and you know. But but the thing

149
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,360
is with with Glenn, I mean, you know, anytime that we've like,

150
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,200
honestly like like from my point of
view, and I think everybody feels

151
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,960
this way, you know, uh, when we when whenever we've picked on

152
00:13:18,039 --> 00:13:22,120
him, it's always been with affection. Like I love Glenn R. J.

153
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,720
Willlett, I always have. He's
a I think he's a great friend.

154
00:13:24,639 --> 00:13:28,639
Things did get get a little sideways
here in terms of his interactions with

155
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:33,080
the radio station, so we kind
of just you know, kept our respective

156
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,480
distance for a long time. But
no, but he's he's got a great

157
00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:41,720
heart. He's he's a wonderful person. And that that that was I'm genuinely

158
00:13:41,879 --> 00:13:46,120
very moved that he did that.
That was very sweet. Yeah, I

159
00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:50,720
like it. I mean I'm a
little concerned. He said, Jenny loves

160
00:13:50,799 --> 00:13:52,120
him. I think you got some
competition. I think you should be worried.

161
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,399
I think I think he met Jenny
loves me. Oh, I think

162
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,799
that's what he I think that's what
he meant. But I don't know,

163
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,399
I don't know, man, somebody
his notes he hit I was a little

164
00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:07,759
impressed. Yes, Eric Filcher in
the chat room says, has John Hopwood

165
00:14:07,799 --> 00:14:11,360
signed off on the kidding with affection
thing? L O L No. I

166
00:14:11,519 --> 00:14:15,399
I think I think John loves him
too. We all, we all love

167
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,000
Glenn. He's he's a he's a
you know. Like I said, things

168
00:14:18,039 --> 00:14:20,919
got a little weird at one point, but well more than one point over

169
00:14:20,919 --> 00:14:24,879
there. I've known him a long
time a lot, but he can at

170
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,360
some time. Yes, yes,
he can be, he can be,

171
00:14:26,679 --> 00:14:28,840
he can be. No, but
we love him. And that was.

172
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:33,120
That was very sweet, Glenn.
That was an amazing surprise. And I

173
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,639
do I do appreciate that that that
he did that and even customized the lyrics

174
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:43,399
for me. That was that was
very nice, very nice on the scale

175
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,360
of I mean, it's probably one
of the better songs I've heard him sing.

176
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,360
He has gotten better. I think
I think much time on his hands.

177
00:14:50,679 --> 00:14:54,200
Well. Jenny made a comment too
in the chat that, uh,

178
00:14:54,879 --> 00:14:58,879
not as much echo, because historically
Glenn puts a lot of echo on his

179
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,919
voice. Yeah, and uh,
he seemed to show some restraint with that

180
00:15:03,039 --> 00:15:05,320
one, so perhaps he's learning.
I don't I just want to know,

181
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,759
Like I said, what what version
of garage band? Yeah, I don't

182
00:15:09,799 --> 00:15:11,399
know. I have no idea what
you're kidding. I'm kidding, I'm poking

183
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:16,360
fun. Yeah, well you never
coming at me hard right now? But

184
00:15:16,519 --> 00:15:20,559
like, y oh not really.
I love Glenn. Yeah that's because Melanie's

185
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,000
not in there yet. Give it
a little bit, give it about twenty

186
00:15:24,039 --> 00:15:26,159
minutes. Your nemesis is only four
twenty one. Uh huh, but no,

187
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,440
I mean I've always found in Glenn
a little interesting. But yeah,

188
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,559
yeah, these are the people's mayor
after all, and Jenny's on the line.

189
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:41,679
Hello, I am Why is that
The only thing you read from the

190
00:15:41,879 --> 00:15:46,000
chat was oh, not as much
echo. I also said that I loved

191
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:50,240
it, that I thought it was
really kind and really sweet. He didn't

192
00:15:50,279 --> 00:15:54,440
read that part. Well, not
yeany he's coming for you. You've got

193
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,519
competition, I would be now you
say not yet. No, it's a

194
00:15:56,559 --> 00:16:00,720
busy it's a busy chat room.
Actually didn't see those comments yet. No,

195
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,399
but that was that was very nice. I was not expecting that.

196
00:16:03,559 --> 00:16:07,279
That was a complete surprise. No, seriously, absolutely, that was a

197
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,240
total surprise, and it really gave
me a reason to smile today. So

198
00:16:11,399 --> 00:16:14,159
thank you very much. Glenn,
I really appreciate it. Yes, and

199
00:16:14,279 --> 00:16:18,120
Christian, I am being nice.
This isn't the worst times, man,

200
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,600
I got a lot worse. If
we'd like. That's true. We've seen

201
00:16:22,679 --> 00:16:26,840
it. I've torn people apart on
this show. That's true. We know

202
00:16:26,039 --> 00:16:30,840
this. I love to do it
again. Nice, I would love to

203
00:16:30,879 --> 00:16:36,320
do it again. All right,
Jenny, thank you Bye. You know

204
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:40,840
what's funny is I actually literally went
back and watched that interview where I tore

205
00:16:40,919 --> 00:16:47,679
that person apart. Oh yes,
yes, yes, that person's probably going

206
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,799
to prison for the rest of their
lives, as they should. If you're

207
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:56,639
bringing weirdos think you are, ye
am, yeah, as they should go

208
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,600
to jail. Hey, hold up, I don't know if I got up.

209
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:03,039
Oh sorry, I forgot what song
that's from? But I love it.

210
00:17:03,319 --> 00:17:07,480
I scratched that all the time.
I'm trying to let the window.

211
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,880
I'm trying to think of what song
that's from? Old Hey oh man,

212
00:17:12,039 --> 00:17:18,039
oh God, smoke weed every day? What song is that? Snoop Dog?

213
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,839
I mean that's Nate Dog singing the
hook. But yeah, but dude,

214
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,039
I can't remember. I'll look it
up when you Oh, it's the

215
00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:30,160
next episode by Doctor Dre because I'm
actually embarrassed. I couldn't remember. So

216
00:17:30,319 --> 00:17:33,680
I have a I have a thing
I do with that with the hold up

217
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:37,720
a part, I will loop it
and then I'll bring in what'sn't meant by

218
00:17:37,759 --> 00:17:42,200
Shaggy Oh all the time? Or
or if I'll do like or I do,

219
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,839
I do another thing with it too, because I have an edit that

220
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:51,680
it goes from the next episode into
damn. Now I can't remember. We

221
00:17:51,799 --> 00:17:56,519
have a call. Hi, Welcome
to Matt Connordton Unleashed. Is this it's

222
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,559
next episode by Doctor Dre? Yes, yeah, I haven't edited. I

223
00:18:00,599 --> 00:18:03,400
play up in the clubs. It's
a transition track where it goes from one

224
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:10,119
song to the other, and that's
I. I have a really cool thing

225
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,000
i'd do with that song, but
I can't remember really like how I do

226
00:18:12,079 --> 00:18:17,319
it. Yeah, well that's a
popular song with YOUJS. People probably think

227
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,000
I sound so stupid right now.
My dad is a fan of Doctor Dre.

228
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,400
I love Doctor Drey. I think
we all love Doctor Yeah. I

229
00:18:25,519 --> 00:18:30,039
had a few moments in between calls, and so I thought I would call

230
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,400
in and tell you guys that because
I put it in the chat. But

231
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,000
I'm like, I'll just call because
things have slowed down today at work.

232
00:18:37,319 --> 00:18:45,960
Ah well, very good. Hold
up, Oh yeah, there you go.

233
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:51,119
It is next episode by Doctor Dre
from The Chronic two thousand and one.

234
00:18:52,039 --> 00:18:56,960
Ah yeah, I remember when that
game memorized. I had memorized there.

235
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,240
There's no way. This man just
says, yeah, So it's from

236
00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:03,880
this album at this time, this
date it was released. Eric knows hip

237
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,160
hop probably better than anyone else in
the state of Iowa. I don't.

238
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:15,720
Actually, shockingly enough, we have
a large hip hip hop seeing community in

239
00:19:15,839 --> 00:19:19,119
Iowa, all like one hundred thousand
of you. Wow, how many people?

240
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:26,799
What's the population of Iowa? I
mean we actually uh the Riza performed

241
00:19:26,279 --> 00:19:33,119
the entire album Liquid Swords at the
Angler Theater in Iowa City and it's sold

242
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:40,720
bow Oh no kidding, yeah,
all three hundred seats kidding. Oh,

243
00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:44,640
very cool, very cool. Well
we're looking forward. Yeah, it's oh,

244
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,160
go ahead. It's actually pretty shocking
the amount of people in this state

245
00:19:48,279 --> 00:19:51,519
that like hip hop. Yeah.
No, hip hop is I mean at

246
00:19:51,519 --> 00:19:55,000
this point, you know, hip
hop is everywhere. It's universal. I

247
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,559
was I was half kidding, but
uh yeah, probably You're probably in the

248
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,799
top five percent of of people who
really know their hip hop in the state

249
00:20:00,839 --> 00:20:06,519
of Iowa. You're giving me way
too much credit. Maybe maybe top seven,

250
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:12,079
top seven percent. I mean sometimes
I wonder if we could count to

251
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,920
seven, you know as a state. Yeah, you guys have a caucus.

252
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:22,680
Caucus. You hardly know us.
Sorry, that's my favorite. Yeah,

253
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,079
we're not going to get started on
the caucus. Yeah, yeah,

254
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,480
no election season folk. That's right. Well, we're looking forward to your

255
00:20:30,559 --> 00:20:37,279
film review. Eric on this Halloween. Yes, it was a It was

256
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:42,440
a fun one to do. Although
like a problem I work to sometimes is

257
00:20:44,279 --> 00:20:48,640
the film Halloween does not have a
lot of dialogue in it. Yeah,

258
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:56,119
it's or it's like just tension building
and everything of that nature. So but

259
00:20:56,039 --> 00:21:02,519
I do believe it is the greatest
flash your film ever made. Back on

260
00:21:02,599 --> 00:21:04,839
the slasher films, well, it's
that time of year, it is.

261
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,240
We got one day after Christmas,
I said, back to the slasher films,

262
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,920
it's all right, it's all right, we got we got one more

263
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,640
day. We got hold on the
time, is it four twenty six over

264
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:22,359
here? We don't got that long
until Christmas? We got maybe like seven

265
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:29,039
hours. Okay, there's actually a
slasher film where the killer is Santa Claus

266
00:21:29,279 --> 00:21:33,960
Silent Night, Deathly nine. Yeah, I I remember when that came out.

267
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,240
I haven't seen it, but I
don't. I don't watch it movies,

268
00:21:37,319 --> 00:21:48,240
but I watched it once and it's
it's a tough watch. Why things

269
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:56,640
that there's it's very graphic, yeah, in it, in the violence in

270
00:21:56,839 --> 00:22:03,319
some other scenes it depicts. Yeah, it's tough to get through. It's

271
00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:11,160
not and it's not well done that
the acting just isn't that great. And

272
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:17,440
it came out at a time when
you had the original, the first Friday

273
00:22:17,519 --> 00:22:23,079
the thirteenth, the first Halloween,
you actually had great slasher films, and

274
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,720
then this came out. If you
were like, oh, okay, I

275
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:36,079
actually rank it up there with Slumber
Party Massacre as just complete schlock. I

276
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:41,200
didn't know there was a film called
there is this there's actually three slumber Party

277
00:22:41,319 --> 00:22:48,079
massacres by what are you saying there? There is a new slasher film coming

278
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:53,519
out for Thanksgiving? Yeah, And
strangely enough, I'm actually interested because I

279
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,079
keep seeing the promo for it.
Yeah, and I'm like, hmm,

280
00:22:57,519 --> 00:23:02,519
it wasn't hard to watch this because
I had a lot of like younger actors

281
00:23:02,599 --> 00:23:06,200
in it that are blew up on
TikTok too, So that always infatuates me

282
00:23:06,279 --> 00:23:10,799
on how these kids go from TikTok
to acting like that. Ah, one

283
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:17,799
last tidbit before I go. The
idea of that film actually started back in

284
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:25,000
two thousand and seven. Yeah,
it was a phony trailer in the Robert

285
00:23:25,079 --> 00:23:30,079
Rodriguez Quinton Tarantino Grindhouse double feature.
Oh okay, I think I remember hearing

286
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:34,160
this now. I never I've never
seen that either, but I directed the

287
00:23:34,279 --> 00:23:41,720
trailer called Thanksgiving, Oh okay.
And then he for the longest time since

288
00:23:41,759 --> 00:23:48,039
then, he's tried to get it
made and just could nothing ever sinked upright,

289
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,960
and finally the stars have a lined. Yes, I mean two other

290
00:23:53,119 --> 00:24:00,160
movies were made off those phony trailers, Machete with Danny Trio and Uh in

291
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:07,160
Canada. Hobo with a Shotgun was
a pony trailer with grind House and they

292
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,759
made that into a movie that was
directed by the guys that created Dark Side

293
00:24:11,799 --> 00:24:17,880
of the Ring for Vice. I
like, I like the how specific and

294
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,920
precise that title is Hobo with a
Shotgun? Really, dude, honestly,

295
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:26,680
But what really infatuates me? Oh
go ahead, no, no, go

296
00:24:26,759 --> 00:24:30,759
ahead, Chris, I was I
was looking at like the cast of the

297
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:36,039
cast of this movie, and it's
a lot of people you wouldn't think would

298
00:24:36,079 --> 00:24:40,000
go together, like to have the
guy that played Derek Sheppard from Gray's Anatomy,

299
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:44,400
and then you have like TikTokers like
Addison Ray and stuff, and it's

300
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:52,119
like, how that's insane. Eli
Ross does do a great job of doing

301
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:56,400
exactly what you said of getting actors
and actresses that you would never think would

302
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,960
work together. I think this movie
is gonna be wicked big. I just

303
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,839
think it's being overshadowed. It really
is, is being overshadowed by like five

304
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,319
Nights at Freddy's and all that stuff
right now because you released out of time.

305
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,799
I agree with you. I think
it's going I think it's gonna end

306
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:18,680
up being one of the top ten
grossing films of the year. I mean

307
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,200
one of the other top ten grossing
films of the year, though, because

308
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,079
I would say I want to say
that. But there's also been some good

309
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,720
movies out this year. But also
there probably hasn't been ten saw the best

310
00:25:30,839 --> 00:25:34,920
movie I've seen in ten years?
What's the past Weekend? The Words of

311
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:41,720
the Flower Moon, what I've not
heard of it. It's directed by Martin

312
00:25:41,759 --> 00:25:49,359
Scorsese and stars Leonardo DiCaprio and uh
Robert de Niro. And it's based off

313
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:55,400
the book of the same title.
It's about I forget the I forget the

314
00:25:55,599 --> 00:26:02,400
exact time frame, but the Osage
have land that struck oil. But because

315
00:26:02,759 --> 00:26:07,039
it wasn't fair land, the United
States government said that they had to have

316
00:26:07,279 --> 00:26:15,119
caretakers give them their money. So
there was this scheme thought up by a

317
00:26:15,279 --> 00:26:22,039
businessman in the area to how he
could get all of their shares for himself.

318
00:26:22,839 --> 00:26:29,279
It was literally murdering these oh Sage
Indians one by one. Oh okay,

319
00:26:29,839 --> 00:26:33,079
this is starting to sound familiar.
I think I read about this movie.

320
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:34,720
Yeah, yep, now that makes
sense. That makes sense. Yep.

321
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:44,319
Yes, it was really, really, really good and just amazing.

322
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,240
I have not seen Oppenheimer yet,
but it would be my pick for Best

323
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,960
Picture. I'd like to see,
oh, I easily. Yeah. I

324
00:26:52,039 --> 00:26:57,079
think Oppenheimer and Barbie were the biggest
two movies this year. I mean I

325
00:26:57,319 --> 00:27:03,720
have, but I told everyone this. I'm like, yep, I just

326
00:27:03,839 --> 00:27:07,759
got out of Killers of the Flower
Moon or how the Academy Awards will screw

327
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,359
over Martin Scorsese for Best Picture and
Best director. Yet again, these award

328
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:18,160
shows are just ridiculous, ridiculous.
They are. It's ridiculous. They are

329
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:26,759
like they The thing is, is
the one thing that Killers of the Flower

330
00:27:26,839 --> 00:27:32,079
Moon has going for it that I
even have a glimmer of hope that it'll

331
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:37,559
win, is it has some of
these It has these ideals that the Academy

332
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:44,759
looks for. Right now, it's
no longer about best Picture, best performance.

333
00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:51,000
It's about what It's about what the
people think. It's about what,

334
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:56,000
you know, what social issues does
a film discuss. If a Star Wars

335
00:27:56,119 --> 00:28:00,039
movie is the best picture made in
the for a year, give it to

336
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:06,480
the Star Wars movie. I mean
right, That's always been my philosophy.

337
00:28:07,559 --> 00:28:11,440
Eric, we gotta, uh,
yeah, go ahead. But they just

338
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:18,240
pigeonhole it and they just go for
what public opinion is within their idea of

339
00:28:18,319 --> 00:28:22,400
what makes a good film, right
right, Eric, we gotta uh,

340
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:23,880
we we got to move along because
we got to get to your review and

341
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,519
then we've got the mighty Suicide Squirrels
coming in in the second hour. But

342
00:28:27,759 --> 00:28:32,279
uh appreciate the call, and obviously
I've already heard the review. It is

343
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,559
excellent. I think you continue to
evolve with these and I'm really looking forward

344
00:28:34,599 --> 00:28:37,640
to sharing this with everybody. And
there is a special song at the end,

345
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,319
of course that I just heard for
the first time. Really like man.

381
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,680
This is Eric Pilcher's a classic film
review. Oh, Mariam Banish just joined

382
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,680
us in the chat. Hi,
Mariam. Eric Pilcher's classic film review of

383
00:31:18,759 --> 00:31:26,599
the original Halloween, directed by John
Carpenter. Check this out. Halloween Night,

384
00:31:29,359 --> 00:31:59,599
a small American town, fifteen years
ago, Michael Halloween. I spent

385
00:31:59,799 --> 00:32:02,680
a cheers trying to reach him,
and then another seven trying to keep him

386
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:07,720
locked up because I realized that what
was living behind that boy's eyes was purely

387
00:32:07,799 --> 00:32:25,359
and simply evil. I think you'll
come back territory to charted. Sure the

388
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:47,960
only read the baby didn't happen all
week? Okay, come on now,

389
00:33:36,799 --> 00:33:51,000
Halloween Night he came home. Slasher
films, without a doubt, are the

390
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:58,359
most popular of all horror films.
The subgenre took root with the release of

391
00:33:58,559 --> 00:34:05,920
Bob Cook's nineteen seventy four film Black
Christmas. However, it was in nineteen

392
00:34:06,079 --> 00:34:13,440
seventy eight where Novis director John Carpenter
made the genre popular. In the flames

393
00:34:13,519 --> 00:34:20,239
of its popularity still flicker like a
freshly lit candle in a jacket lantern on

394
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:27,559
Halloween Night, Halloween introduces us to
Michael Myers, a man that ten years

395
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:34,320
prior had brutally murdered his sister and
boyfriend on Halloween night. On this night,

396
00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:39,639
doctor Samuel Loomis, the late Donald
Pleasance, is set to retrieve Myers

397
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:45,199
for a hearing that will hopefully keep
him in an insane asylum for the rest

398
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:52,679
of his life. When Myers escapes
and goes home to hadd and Field,

399
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:59,400
Illinois, where Lorie Strode, scream
Queen Jamie Lee Curtis in her first starring

400
00:34:59,519 --> 00:35:06,639
role, and her friends are subject
to brutality and terror committed by Myers.

401
00:35:07,039 --> 00:35:14,320
This film is really what kicks started
the slasher film subgenre. It is also

402
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:20,239
the film that made John Carpenter a
horror master. Our first two clips are

403
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,840
going to be from Carpenter himself.
First, in a brief clip, he

404
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:30,119
explains his view on horror films,
and then he talks about the premise of

405
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:37,679
Halloween, including the idea behind Michael
Myers in what they were trying to capture

406
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:43,880
and his now infamous mask. As
you go to a horror film or a

407
00:35:44,039 --> 00:35:45,519
monster movie, a sign you know
something's coming. I mean, that's why

408
00:35:45,559 --> 00:35:50,920
you pay your ticket. The whole
secret is when does it happen? And

409
00:35:51,039 --> 00:35:53,639
how long can you keep the audience
waiting for that event to happen? And

410
00:35:53,760 --> 00:36:00,199
how long can you keep this mysterious
character Michael Myers alive and stalking people without

411
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,920
ever having to do anything. And
the longer that that can go on,

412
00:36:04,159 --> 00:36:07,679
the more anxious the audience becomes.
All suspense is is you create anxiety in

413
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,920
the viewer and they're upset. They
want the characters to pay attention to what's

414
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:15,519
going on because they're ahead. They're
always ahead of the characters. Now,

415
00:36:16,039 --> 00:36:22,800
the original idea for Halloween. My
job in making Halloween was to do an

416
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:29,400
exploitation horror film. Then the basic
premise was given to me by my distributor

417
00:36:29,639 --> 00:36:35,199
or when you blonde, he said, Let's do a movie about these babysitters

418
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,559
who get stocked by a killer.
He figured that everybody could identify with babysittings,

419
00:36:39,599 --> 00:36:44,239
so many teenagers had done it.
And then a little bit later he

420
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,079
came up with the idea of calling
it Halloween. Let's set it out Halloween.

421
00:36:46,119 --> 00:36:49,920
I didn't call it Halloween. Never
been used as a title before,

422
00:36:50,199 --> 00:36:54,159
never been used at all. It
was an underutilized holiday. So great,

423
00:36:54,559 --> 00:36:58,320
and I was a young director then. I was hungry for experience, hungry

424
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,599
for features. I had done some
work before then I said, sure,

425
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:05,159
why not. Well, when we
were making the film, I thought,

426
00:37:05,599 --> 00:37:09,440
Gee, it's Halloween at night and
people get dressed up in masks. What

427
00:37:09,679 --> 00:37:15,480
better way to have a killer not
be identified. It'd be wearing a mask.

428
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:20,800
And we didn't have any money to
make a mask. So so my

429
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,599
production designer, Tommy Lee Wallace,
went up to a magic shop right here

430
00:37:23,639 --> 00:37:29,280
on Hollywood Boulevard and bought a William
Shatner Star Trek mask, Captain Kirk mask.

431
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,519
Spray painted it, cut the eye
holes a little bit different, fixed

432
00:37:31,559 --> 00:37:35,440
the hair, and there we go. As I remember it now, maybe

433
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,559
it was more, but I had
about three or four days to do the

434
00:37:37,599 --> 00:37:42,079
score to Halloween, basically record the
whole thing. I wanted something deadly simple

435
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,880
and something that would just eat at
you a little bit. And my father

436
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:51,119
bought me a pair of bongos when
I was really young for Christmas. He

437
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,639
taught me how to play five four
time on them. Ba da da da

438
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,119
da da da da da da da
da da da da da da da da

439
00:37:57,159 --> 00:38:00,199
da. So all I did was
to good on piano and do five or

440
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:05,800
with an octave, and that that
was where it came from. One scene

441
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,239
that I'm particularly fond of, where
after Jamie makes her discovery in the house,

442
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:14,719
she backs into a corner and it's
a dark corner back there, and

443
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,880
she's kind of terrified and hiding for
a moment, and then gradually you become

444
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:22,760
aware that he is standing right behind
her, and he just slowly turned the

445
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:27,880
light up and it just exposed,
just exposed that mask on film, and

446
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,320
that was creepy that I that may
be my favorite scene was an odd experience

447
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:37,320
on Halloween. It was released across
the country uh in October and November of

448
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:44,519
seventy eight, two not very good
reviews. Somehow it caught on and began

449
00:38:44,599 --> 00:38:47,400
to develop a word of mouth.
And I was off directing a TV movie

450
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:52,920
called Elvis. So by the time
I'd finished that, I was invited to

451
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,119
New York to speak at some deal
and they were screaming Halloween and I was

452
00:38:55,159 --> 00:38:59,880
standing outside waiting to go in,
and it was just the screams, over

453
00:39:00,119 --> 00:39:04,400
and over and over again. It
was music to my ears. What makes

454
00:39:04,519 --> 00:39:14,199
this film so powerful and so scary
despite a horrible stereotype that slasher films can't

455
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:20,559
be scary, is that us,
the audience or viewer, does not fully

456
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:28,280
see Michael until a quarter of the
way through the film. He stealthily moves

457
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:36,400
in between the bushes and clothing,
and he's never fully visualized. His kills

458
00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:44,159
are done with stealth, brutality,
and no remorse. This mystery is set

459
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:49,599
up by Loomis when he is described
by the doctor, we the viewer become

460
00:39:49,679 --> 00:39:54,400
more terrified of him despite not fully
seeing him. To me, that is

461
00:39:54,440 --> 00:40:00,000
a credit to the performance of Donald
Pleasance. Our next cl is an example

462
00:40:00,039 --> 00:40:06,480
of this. In this scene,
Loomis is describing to hadden Field's sheriff what

463
00:40:06,679 --> 00:40:10,719
he saw in Michael and why he
is fighting to stop him for good.

464
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:30,280
That since nineteen sixty three. What
had happened? Every Kit had and Field

465
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:52,400
thinks his place is haunted, and
they may be right. What is there?

466
00:40:53,599 --> 00:41:07,800
Dumb still warm, and he got
hungry. He just kept her right.

467
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:12,880
Could have been a skunk. Could
happened. Man wouldn't do that.

468
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:52,639
This isn't nuther lappen. It happening
here. She she was sitting right here.

469
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:07,079
He could have seen it through his
window. Standing on alone, he

470
00:42:07,159 --> 00:42:19,519
could have seen his side. Hm. He must thing me the very sentenced

471
00:42:19,519 --> 00:42:27,159
to doctor. Oh I I do
have to prove it seems to me you're

472
00:42:27,159 --> 00:42:31,480
just plain scared. Yes, yeah, I I am. Uh. I

473
00:42:31,639 --> 00:42:36,679
met him fifteen years ago. I
was told there was nothing left, no

474
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:42,159
reason, no conscience, no understanding, and even the most rudimentary sense of

475
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:46,920
life or death, of good or
evil, right or wrong. I met

476
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:57,039
this six year old child with this
blank, pale, emotionless face and the

477
00:42:57,159 --> 00:43:02,880
blackest eyes the devil's uh. I
spent eight years trying to reach him,

478
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,559
and then another seven trying to keep
him locked up, because I realized that

479
00:43:07,639 --> 00:43:13,599
what was living behind that boy's eyes
was purely and simply evil. What do

480
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,679
we do? He's been here once
tonight, I think he'll come back.

481
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,679
I'm gonna wait for him. I
still think I should notify the radio and

482
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,119
television. If you do that,
they'll see him on every street corner,

483
00:43:25,119 --> 00:43:28,719
and they'll look for him in every
house. Just tell your men to keep

484
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:43,480
their mouths shutting their eyes open.
I'll check back in an hour. A

485
00:43:43,599 --> 00:43:50,199
review of this film, would it
be complete or do this film justice without

486
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:57,400
speaking on Jamie Lee Curtis's performance of
Laurie Strode. This performance is what the

487
00:43:57,559 --> 00:44:02,360
quote unquote Final Girl of horror films
would be known for, the sweet girl

488
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:09,480
next door that always does right and
yes is virginal. Our last scene is

489
00:44:09,519 --> 00:44:15,039
an indication of this. Laurie and
her friends are walking home after school.

490
00:44:15,679 --> 00:44:22,719
Two of them are talking about sex
and people getting into trouble. Laurie is

491
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:30,280
more preoccupied with her chemistry book.
This shows the traits that make the now

492
00:44:30,519 --> 00:44:37,039
classic horror film Final Girl, and
it is all thanks to Jamie Lee Curtis's

493
00:44:37,159 --> 00:44:40,519
performance in this film. And we
have three new cheers to learn in the

494
00:44:40,599 --> 00:44:44,000
morning. The game is in the
afternoon. I have to get my hair

495
00:44:44,079 --> 00:44:45,960
done at five and the dances of
a D eight I'll be totally wiped out.

496
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:54,360
I don't think you have enough to
do tomorrow. Totally as usual.

497
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:58,239
I have nothing to do. It's
your own fault, and I don't feel

498
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:04,199
a bit sorry for you. Hey, Lindau Laurie, why didn't you wait

499
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,079
for me? We did fifteen minutes. It totally never shows. That's not

500
00:45:07,199 --> 00:45:14,000
true. Here, I am,
I's thrown man. That's smiling. I'm

501
00:45:14,039 --> 00:45:19,360
never smiling again. Paul dragged me
into the boys locker room, exploring uncharted

502
00:45:19,519 --> 00:45:23,800
territory. Totally charged. Just talk. Sure, Old Jerko got caught throwing

503
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:28,760
eggs and soaping windows. His parrots
rounded them. You can't come over them.

504
00:45:29,159 --> 00:45:31,000
I'll call your babysitter to me.
The only reason she babysits is to

505
00:45:31,079 --> 00:45:37,360
have I have a place for that. I forgot my chemistry book, so

506
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,199
who cares? I always forget my
chemistry book and my math book, and

507
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:43,280
my English book, and my let's
see my French book, and well,

508
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,280
who needs books anyway? I don't
need books. I always forget all my

509
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:51,239
books. It doesn't really matter if
yeah, your books or not. Hey,

510
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:57,440
isn't that Devon Graham? I don't
think so. I think he's cute.

511
00:46:01,039 --> 00:46:21,960
Pay jerk speak kills? Yeah,
can you take a joke. I

512
00:46:22,039 --> 00:46:27,800
could use many words to describe what
this film means to not just horror films,

513
00:46:28,159 --> 00:46:31,480
but films in general. This film
was the precursor to some of the

514
00:46:31,559 --> 00:46:38,559
most notorious film villains of all time
Leatherface, Jason Vorhees, Freddy Krueger,

515
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:45,199
Chucky, Pinhead, candy Man,
and many many more. If not for

516
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:50,760
the success of this film, it's
safe to say we would not have the

517
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:58,400
others. It's worldwide gross was over
seventy million dollars. As we heard Carpenter

518
00:46:58,519 --> 00:47:02,599
say earlier, this was strictly on
word of mouth. This made it one

519
00:47:02,639 --> 00:47:07,960
of the most successful independent films of
all time. It made Jamie Lee Curtis

520
00:47:08,039 --> 00:47:15,119
a star and John Carpenter into one
of the greatest independent film directors of all

521
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:22,400
time. And finally, it made
Michael Myers the face or the shape of

522
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:29,320
a holiday. The film spawned ten
direct sequels, and shock rocker Rob Zombie,

523
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:34,320
out of his admiration of the films, did a remake and a sequel

524
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:39,480
to his remake as well. Despite
the hit or miss and disjointed nature of

525
00:47:39,559 --> 00:47:45,000
the film series, this does not
take away from the greatness of this film.

526
00:47:45,679 --> 00:47:51,239
It shocks, scares, and makes
you cringe at its brutality. It

527
00:47:51,400 --> 00:48:00,679
is the ultimate slasher film and is
a mussy because everyone deserves one good scare.

528
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:06,000
I hope you joined me this Friday
when we look at a high school

529
00:48:06,079 --> 00:48:12,119
senior living life to its fullest on
one glorious day off, we will take

530
00:48:12,199 --> 00:48:16,599

bands, not a lot, just one

603
00:56:51,639 --> 00:56:53,519
other one yeah, like the last
eight years. Yeah, yeah, oh

604
00:56:53,639 --> 00:56:57,320
okay. Yeah, this is more
of a new project for us, and

605
00:56:57,440 --> 00:56:59,880
it's only been going on for about
a year and a half. Yeah,

606
00:57:00,079 --> 00:57:02,400
a little bit, but we're pushing
it. We're pushing it hard. Yeah.

607
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,960
I already made a bunch of music, so we're ready. Yeah,

608
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:07,599
we got a we got a bunch
of tunes we're gonna play today. Really

609
00:57:07,679 --> 00:57:10,199
looking forward to sharing these with everybody. By the way, so I have

610
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:13,400
to ask this right out of the
gate, where does the name come from?

611
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:19,440
Uh? Started? They just started
out as a joke and then we

612
00:57:19,599 --> 00:57:24,320
had this really ongoing long name and
then it was just like, let's just

613
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:28,840
cut it down. We'll just be
Yeah, we'll just be the Squirrels and

614
00:57:29,159 --> 00:57:32,199
we're ready to go with that.
It just was really added nothing we didn't

615
00:57:32,199 --> 00:57:38,039
expect to be doing anywhere might I
was gonna say, you didn't cut it

616
00:57:38,079 --> 00:57:44,199
down that much, not that much
just now and talking easier to say the

617
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:46,159
squirrel right right, But yeah,
it just came as a joke. We

618
00:57:46,239 --> 00:57:51,880
didn't expect to be playing anything nearly
as much as we are. We're playing

619
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:53,880
way more than we thought would be
really yeah, yeah, yeah, so

620
00:57:55,360 --> 00:58:00,239
we're very much every weekend we're out. We really tried this year here to

621
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:06,800
push ourselves and get ourselves out there, and it really showed everything just even

622
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:14,320
just being like everywhere from wester to
Boston to Nashua, Connect, Rhode Island,

623
00:58:14,679 --> 00:58:20,039
Maine, been all over the place. Yeah, Ohio, Ohio next

624
00:58:20,119 --> 00:58:23,119
month. Yeah. Yeah, started
as a joke, just trying to just

625
00:58:23,199 --> 00:58:27,320
keep the music going for me and
him. Yeah, And we taught him

626
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:31,840
a bunch of cover songs and then
just kind of make short songs. So

627
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:36,360
it was just here we go's make
a bunch of short songs and then just

628
00:58:37,719 --> 00:58:43,079
rocke the simplest songs you can imagine, you know. Do the songs come

629
00:58:43,159 --> 00:58:46,599
pretty easy? Yeah, They're not
bad. It depends on how I feel.

630
00:58:46,639 --> 00:58:52,159
For the most part, a lot
of just like like my emotional like

631
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:55,400
journal coming coming to life type deal. So it's it's pretty good. Out

632
00:58:55,440 --> 00:59:00,880
of them are really like positive,
So that's all. You know, it's

633
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:06,159
like this all miserable, you know. I mean we do have happy and

634
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:09,880
happy. It sounds happy, but
it's not. It's not. But yeah,

635
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:13,559
I don't know. If I have
something to be happy about, i'd

636
00:59:13,559 --> 00:59:15,960
write a happy song. There must
be a happy one in there somewhere.

637
00:59:16,119 --> 00:59:19,159
I mean, you're not happy about
it. There's a couple, Yeah,

638
00:59:19,199 --> 00:59:21,760
there's a couple of good. There's
a couple of ones, but they're like

639
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:27,159
a skew and astray. Sure you
know they're strange or inappropriate. Yeah,

640
00:59:27,559 --> 00:59:30,800
you know, just about your lifely, your daily struggles and daily struggles in

641
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:36,760
life is what we're really hitting our
songs. Besides like a few fun ones.

642
00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:40,480
It's yeah, it's just all about
life. Where are you guys from?

643
00:59:40,559 --> 00:59:44,480
Are you from around here? Are
you from here? We're from athol

644
00:59:44,599 --> 00:59:49,400
Masks Okay, Yeah, we're all
like branched apart. Yeah, you know,

645
00:59:49,519 --> 00:59:53,199
but we practiced an athole, so
we're pretty much not too far from

646
00:59:53,239 --> 00:59:57,199
Atho. I know that als like
an hour and twenty minutes from here.

647
00:59:58,159 --> 01:00:00,920
About that. Yeah, it's not
it's really not that bad. To get.

648
01:00:00,719 --> 01:00:05,920
I'm just laughing because that for the
name of a town or a city.

649
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:09,800
I've always thought that's such a funny
sounding name. Yeah, like a

650
01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:15,440
river, a river rat race,
and everyone calls it rat hole, you

651
01:00:15,519 --> 01:00:20,280
know. Yeah, used to call
it the ratley, going to the rat

652
01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:23,000
hole. That's what I've always known
it. You're not really going anywhere pleasant.

653
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:29,440
There's there's nothing good there. Hey, a little better, a little

654
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:34,440
better. I mean, we do
have to say we go for those listening,

655
01:00:34,519 --> 01:00:37,119
we are probably at all premiere punk
rock band. There you go,

656
01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:40,800
you go, all right, you
know, we are probably the elite of

657
01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:45,039
the elite out there. You might
be other than the rats in the sewer,

658
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:50,039
you might be the premiere band from
there. You know, you're right.

659
01:00:51,239 --> 01:00:53,199
Maybe an original band, but there's
probably you know, the cover bands

660
01:00:53,199 --> 01:00:58,079
probably got but an original band,
but cover band. We're not here for

661
01:00:58,199 --> 01:01:00,920
covers. We're here for originals.
Is that a it's a city? Is

662
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:06,280
it a tower city? Is it
considered a town? Say it's a town.

663
01:01:06,519 --> 01:01:08,639
It's an up and coming town.
It's very close to a city,

664
01:01:08,679 --> 01:01:13,519
I would say almost, well probably
now yeah, but close, it's very

665
01:01:13,639 --> 01:01:16,000
close. Yeah, Well, all
right, they got enough to do with

666
01:01:16,159 --> 01:01:22,320
all like the new stuff they've put
in, that's all I know. I

667
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:27,000
got more than winching in, that's
for sure. Uh, Isaac Banks and

668
01:01:27,039 --> 01:01:30,519
the chat room is asking the mighty
Suicide Squirrels, who are your influences?

669
01:01:31,119 --> 01:01:37,599
Oh? Oh A lot of It's
like bat Relusion, Misfits, definitely,

670
01:01:37,719 --> 01:01:44,880
Misfits, yeahs, sence, ye
effects, you know, Offspring, I

671
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:49,840
definitely we've got a good Offspring sound, operational, just for the simplicity,

672
01:01:50,199 --> 01:01:52,199
and same with I don't know,
I feel like we relate to a lot

673
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:59,639
of bands just because we're very simple
all over. A lot of it's really

674
01:01:59,679 --> 01:02:01,599
three four chords. Yeah, yeah, you know, so it's very simple.

675
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:07,239
Yeah. How many songs have you
guys recorded? Twenty? That's pretty

676
01:02:07,239 --> 01:02:10,000
good. Yeah yeah yeah yeah,
we're just like they said they really were

677
01:02:10,079 --> 01:02:15,079
just released our second album October twentieth. Oh yeah, the second album just

678
01:02:15,159 --> 01:02:17,920
came out. Yeah, Oh very
cool. Wow, that's that's very album

679
01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:28,639
modify whatever it's called nuts in your
Face Yeah and the squirrels, Yeah,

680
01:02:28,719 --> 01:02:34,119
that that makes sense, that's what
they eat, right. Yeah? When

681
01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:38,679
when when I find what's that first
one called the Greasy Potato? Oh yeah

682
01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:43,159
yeah yeah, yeah, you forgot
I did. Yeah, I don't.

683
01:02:43,239 --> 01:02:45,599
I don't know what that means,
but it sounds like something. If I

684
01:02:45,639 --> 01:02:51,480
looked it up on Urban Dictionary,
I would find something horrifying. Maybe weasy

685
01:02:51,519 --> 01:02:54,800
potato. Yeah, do that,
But I'm sure if you did look it

686
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:59,719
up, Yeah, something cool,
actually, something we're all missing out on.

687
01:03:00,079 --> 01:03:06,639
Yeah, I don't know. Well, let's let's play a track.

688
01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:09,119
Uh, what do you guys?
I'll let you guys pick of the uh,

689
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:13,920

You? So you know, you

690
01:03:14,039 --> 01:03:16,360

Okay, I like, yeah, that's

692
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,199
probably the best one to listen to. All right, we'll give this a

693
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:29,159
spin. So this is uh the
Pride of athol Mass. I'm even saying

01:03:29,199 --> 01:03:34,840
that correctly. Yeah, say the
other way I was gonna say. I'm

695
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:37,440
kind of afraid to mispronounce. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you want to

696
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:40,239
say that. I don't. I
like to, you know, because I

697
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:45,079
want to be able to come back

name. All right, So let's give

Squirrels. And we have them live

715
01:06:55,639 --> 01:06:59,159
DJ Rockless never came back. But
but you guys, you guys,

716
01:06:59,199 --> 01:07:02,599
we ran it with the bar down. I think he's like, I don't

717
01:07:02,599 --> 01:07:08,000
want to deal with those. He's
not what we were doing. He was

718
01:07:08,119 --> 01:07:11,280
like last time there was someone drunk
on there. We don't want to deal

719
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:18,320
with that. We have Trevor,
Kevin and Jared from the band here with

720
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:21,679
us in studio. By the way, so I'm looking at your band camp

721
01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:28,280
and there's another gentleman here, mikey
Lemire back up vocal. Oh yeah,

722
01:07:28,639 --> 01:07:31,880
he came to the studio with us. He did one song. It's on

723
01:07:32,079 --> 01:07:35,559
band camp, isn't it? Yeah, the one song, isn't it right?

724
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:44,159
Yeah? Yeah, like every song, I can't help filling songs there.

725
01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:47,199
But he's not there, so he's
not an official member of the band.

726
01:07:47,239 --> 01:07:53,639
Obviously very good. It's awesome when
he's around. He's a really good

727
01:07:53,679 --> 01:07:57,000
singer. He's awesome. Yeah.
Yeah, he just makes this sound better.

728
01:07:57,280 --> 01:08:03,559
Yeah, he doesn't. I can't
do he does. He's good to

729
01:08:03,639 --> 01:08:08,039
sing with, he knows the songs, he does, he does the work.

730
01:08:08,159 --> 01:08:11,320
It's just it's hard to get a
hold of him. He's one of

731
01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:14,719
those kind of people I understand.
Yeah, And where do you guys record?

732
01:08:15,319 --> 01:08:17,479
Choose it? You'll be doing it. How to watch us to record

750
01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:53,439
long way we all have to say. That's what we all have to say.

751
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:57,479
It's only come a long way because

But now Win is the worst out there,

pretty bad Winchingdon. Is that like
a couple of towns grew up.

754
01:10:13,239 --> 01:10:18,439
Okay, you're not missing much.
There's like farms and ships. Don't even

755
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:23,880

756
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:28,720
surce farms right there. You Yeah, you would think you would think,

757
01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:32,079
wow, yeah, we got five
pizza places. You're not missing much.

758
01:10:32,399 --> 01:10:35,600
It's typical town. It's funny.
It's a travel town. That's the thing

759
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:41,479
though. No matter how small a
town is, there will always be Yeah.

760
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,359
If you don't have pizza, you
have what do you have? I

769
01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:34,760
knows how to work the crowd.
He does. Does he do more than

770
01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:42,920
one song with you? Or he
plays most? Okay? Yeah, he's

771
01:11:43,039 --> 01:11:45,640
just the perfect element to like,
you know, he's like the spice.

772
01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:48,479
You're like, oh, we got
Mikey tonight, there's little Razi dazzle.

yeah, it just really yeah. And

777
01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:12,560
I don't have to sing so much, so this sounds that much. The

778
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:18,159
less I sing, the better we
sound. Oh but I don't do that,

779
01:12:18,239 --> 01:12:20,079
but I sing it. I sing
it all. So you know,

780
01:12:20,239 --> 01:12:23,960
you don't have a choice. This
is what it is, you know.

781
01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:27,359
Yeah, but you know what,

796
01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:56,279
awesome. Yeah yeah. So I
started to ask about where you guys record

797
01:13:56,319 --> 01:14:00,439
because everything sounds really good. So
wa trees that were in Princeton, mass

798
01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:08,319
Okay? Uh engineers Roger Lavalley excellent
guy, does great work. Yeah yeah,

799
01:14:09,239 --> 01:14:13,960
prices are good, very fair.
Yeah, it's nice. It's like

800
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:16,239
you're just basically going into someone's house. It's kind of like it's just like

801
01:14:16,319 --> 01:14:20,359
a studio. Apartment okay, yeah, right behind the antique shop. Yeah.

802
01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:24,119
It's nice though. Yeah, he's
got a ton of equipment, he's

803
01:14:24,159 --> 01:14:26,880
got everything you can eat. You
don't really even have to bring anything if

804
01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:30,279
you didn't want to show up and
play. A very nice place, really

805
01:14:30,319 --> 01:14:34,479
good pizza place right up the street. I will say. Yeah, Now,

806
01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:36,640
how did you get connected with him? Working with him? How did

807
01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:41,640
that come about? Honestly? Just
Google recording there. Yeah, we know

808
01:14:42,359 --> 01:14:45,680
a couple of bands we know also, I believe went there. Yeah,

809
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:47,680
Michael Kay in the morning after.
I don't know if anybody's ever heard of

810
01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:53,319
them, Yeah, out of Western
and then Lenny Lashley did some stuff there

811
01:14:53,399 --> 01:14:56,000
too. You know, a couple
of people. That's all I can think

812
01:14:56,039 --> 01:14:59,640
of off the top of my head. Yeah. But yeah, it's worked

813
01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:02,000
out really well. It's very easy
going, very fair price. Yeah,

814
01:15:02,359 --> 01:15:06,119
very good guys, very easy going. Yeah, and he obviously understands what

815
01:15:06,199 --> 01:15:10,039
you guys are. Yeah, you
just a general idea, even if you're

816
01:15:10,039 --> 01:15:11,840
not sure, you just be like, we kind of want to sound like

817
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:14,079
this band, or we want to
kind of sound like this band. Yeah,

818
01:15:14,359 --> 01:15:16,079
found that and he'll he'll get you
there. Yeah, you know,

819
01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:19,479
yeah, because it was so often
a you know, a recording engineer,

820
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:24,159
it kind of becomes like a de
facto producer too. You know, in

821
01:15:24,279 --> 01:15:29,000
a way you kind of gotta especially
if you're kind of just like throwing the

822
01:15:29,079 --> 01:15:30,720
music at him, You got to
have someone who's kind of like, we

823
01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:33,720
got to build it. You need
someone to build the music for you if

824
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:38,079
you haven't like fully constructed it.
It's a good way of thinking about he

825
01:15:38,159 --> 01:15:42,720
did everything, He recorded it,
he mixed, he mastered it. Yeah,

826
01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:45,840
pretty much everything was one song album, one one one day. Yeah.

827
01:15:47,319 --> 01:15:51,840
Our first album as one studio take
yeahs by time we done it was

828
01:15:51,920 --> 01:16:00,920
fully mastered. Yeah. Wow that's
fast. Yeah. But we don't want

829
01:16:01,399 --> 01:16:08,039
yeah experience. We don't want to
be like overdubbed and sound like something that

830
01:16:08,119 --> 01:16:13,279
we're not. Yeah. We want
our music to sound like us when we

831
01:16:13,399 --> 01:16:17,880
play. Yeah. Yeah we're not. We don't studio. We don't you

832
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,760
know, Yeah, we're what we
are. Yeah. Yeah, we're just

833
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:29,359
human. Simple. I don't know
if you're human. We're just simple.

834
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:33,039
Yeah. And the studio is harder
for us, I think because we're not

835
01:16:33,159 --> 01:16:36,319
really a studio band. We're just
we're more of a live band. We

836
01:16:36,439 --> 01:16:42,319
need the energy or for the fun
and each other. We just go for

837
01:16:42,439 --> 01:16:45,840
it. We have a blast.
We're just here for the entertainment. We

838
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:49,600
don't necessarily play perfect, you know, but we just have fun and that's

839
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:54,760
what we're there for instead of like
trying to nail every single No, that's

840
01:16:54,760 --> 01:17:00,479
definitely not happening. You know,
there's reasons. But you can have fun

841
01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:04,399
and joke with each other with it's
that's all. Yeah, we get we

842
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:09,800
get the people going and engaged in
the show and have Usually we have more

843
01:17:10,079 --> 01:17:14,479
crowd engagement than most, you know, And that's what we're there for.

844
01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:16,600
It's what I'm there for. There
for the fun. Let's just have fun.

845
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:19,199
Yeah. Now, when you record, do you got do you go

846
01:17:19,319 --> 01:17:24,239
in and play live together? We
play all together. Yeah, we go

847
01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:29,279
in and usually what we do before
we go record, we'll go to Jared's

848
01:17:29,279 --> 01:17:31,319
house and we'll practice for a month
without singing any works. Oh yeah,

849
01:17:31,680 --> 01:17:35,479
Yeah, we have a silent practice
because there. Yeah, you just play

850
01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:39,960
the music first and then then you
go to the studio with bang them out

851
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:42,920
one or two takes. Yeah,
right, it feels really good. Yeah.

852
01:17:43,720 --> 01:17:46,640
This time we had Mikey saying in
a separate booth in a different room

853
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:50,800
and that went really well. Yeah, that helped. It's if you get

854
01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:54,479
on the vocals, it's key because
half the time, after a while,

855
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:57,880
you kind of tune out from the
music and your you're more focused on the

856
01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:00,479
words of of what's going on.
He focused on a couple of words of

857
01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:03,119
all right, now I should make
the change right here. That's why I'm

858
01:18:03,199 --> 01:18:06,399
changing. And when you take that
out, you're kind of like you're a

859
01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:14,000
lost because, yeah, you're like, this part's happened. I was expecting

860
01:18:14,079 --> 01:18:18,800
this or I was expecting that right
now. You guys, uh, prior

861
01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:23,680
to this album, you've recorded other
things. Have you recorded everything? Uh?

862
01:18:24,159 --> 01:18:27,520
At that the same studio. Everything's
been done with the same studio,

863
01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:31,159
the same engineer for the Squirrels.
Yeah, the same person, same studio,

864
01:18:31,359 --> 01:18:36,479
same place. Okay, cool,
Like, yeah, he's good.

865
01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:41,199
He's right near us, so there's
no reason to go somewhere else. Although

866
01:18:42,319 --> 01:18:47,119
now they say that they are making
a place, and I think Roger is

867
01:18:47,159 --> 01:18:51,199
going to be moving there and wist
there, so we'll be doing it like

868
01:18:51,279 --> 01:18:57,640
in his backyard, like in a
barn or something at the barn in his

869
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:01,640
backyard, so you know, it
makes more sense for him. You can

870
01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:05,159
just do right at home, so
that'll be cool. But well we'll still

871
01:19:05,199 --> 01:19:09,159
be going to the same person.
A lot of a lot of bands in

872
01:19:09,199 --> 01:19:12,039
that area too, in Worcester,
so that makes sense. Yeah, yeah,

873
01:19:12,079 --> 01:19:14,800
well exactly. Yeah, you got
to go where the music is.

874
01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:20,319
Yeah. Absolutely, he's in a
decent place to get to everybody. But

875
01:19:20,399 --> 01:19:24,720
it's not like it's easy to get
to everybody. By the way, the

876
01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:28,760
Prodigal Son has returned. DJ Reckless
is here back. I got locked out?

877
01:19:29,079 --> 01:19:31,920
You did? Yeah? I didn't
give you the code? How'd you

878
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:34,880
get in? It was somebody else
coming in? No. I looked at

879
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:39,840
my messages and found the code that
was spent to me like months ago.

880
01:19:40,079 --> 01:19:42,520
Okay, there you go, there
you go. Yeah, I was checking

881
01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:44,800
my phone in case you had gotten
locked out. I was like, I

882
01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:46,159
wonder if he messaged me, but
I don't don't know why I didn't think

883
01:19:46,199 --> 01:19:51,319
too. But well, we were
worried that because I heard you ran into

884
01:19:51,359 --> 01:19:57,279
the band. Did scaredy off until
them at my stomping grounds? Yes,

885
01:19:57,520 --> 01:20:00,800
yes, at the six O three, the Good All six, Yes,

886
01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:03,479
yes, indeed. Well I think

It was good. And why is how

976
01:28:33,079 --> 01:28:38,520
did he become your son? It
was just kind of like a joke at

977
01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:43,119
first, but there was just like
I forget where, but like I talk.

978
01:28:43,319 --> 01:28:45,119
I ended up talking to Alex a
lot. I'm pretty sure it was.

979
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:49,920
And then it was just like I'm
older than him, so he called

980
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:53,920
me like his some one day was
like, well i'm old in you,

981
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:56,279
I can't be your son. So
I was like, you gotta be like

982
01:28:56,359 --> 01:29:00,239
my son now. So now he's
my son. Yeah yeah, And it

983
01:29:00,319 --> 01:29:03,960
works out good because like sometimes we'll
talk a lot and then it's like we'll

984
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:09,720
go a very long time and then
we don't talk. So it's like a

985
01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:16,760
dream relationship with you. You know, I remember, I'll remember his birthday

986
01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:21,399
next year, promising that, so
we'll see about that. You don't have

987
01:29:21,479 --> 01:29:24,399
to pay for him to go to
college or anything. I don't have to

988
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:28,359
do anything. I think he's past
college. Okay, yeah, yeah,

989
01:29:28,439 --> 01:29:30,239
he's older now. You know,
Mom did good, Thank you mom.

990
01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:34,199

what we're doing. He's following, following

991
01:29:34,239 --> 01:29:40,159

01:29:54,880 --> 01:29:58,760

for him to get here with my steps

997
01:29:58,760 --> 01:30:02,159
through the snow. You know,
I broke down the bank and that's right,

01:32:24,680 --> 01:32:27,880
tight ship. I made sure that
that went down ten o'clock. No,

1035
01:32:28,079 --> 01:32:30,840

1036
01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:33,800
know, you got to have the
respect of the course. You always got

1037
01:32:33,880 --> 01:32:38,800
to have respect for where you're playing. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, well

us in studio hanging out with DJ Reckless

1056
01:35:04,479 --> 01:35:08,159

funny. So before the song we were

1057
01:35:08,199 --> 01:35:10,880
talking about you know is it is
a really happy song, and then I

1058
01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:13,239
think the first line is I can't
remember the last time I was happy.

1059
01:35:13,399 --> 01:35:16,600
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ago, Yeah. It takes it right out

1060
01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:19,760

we're all happy when we're making music.

1061
01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:24,119
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
fun. Music is the best way to

1062
01:35:24,239 --> 01:35:28,119
like to hide those kinds of things. You can have upbeat, sad song

1063
01:35:28,199 --> 01:35:30,800
and everyone's just like, this song
is great, and then you're just like,

1064
01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:35,520
oh wait, oh wait, you're
saying, but yeah, the music

1065
01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:39,319

1073
01:36:02,079 --> 01:36:05,760
But we are hanging out with the
Mighty Suicide Squrols here with us live in

1074
01:36:06,079 --> 01:36:10,720
studio. Do you guys have a
lot of shows coming up the rest of

1075
01:36:10,760 --> 01:36:15,880
the year or not a lot,
but enough we're keeping busy. You don't

1076
01:36:15,000 --> 01:36:20,000
like they're in the winter. I'm
not a fan of like booking a lot

1077
01:36:20,079 --> 01:36:26,680
of shows unless they're really gonna be
worthwhile. I just you never know what

1078
01:36:26,760 --> 01:36:29,359
the wind with the winter. You
could be like, oh, all week,

1079
01:36:29,359 --> 01:36:30,520
it's gonna be pristine. You got
a show coming up, and then

1080
01:36:31,359 --> 01:36:35,039
we got a blizzard that day,
so it's canceled anyway. So it's kind

1081
01:36:35,079 --> 01:36:40,640
of the winter is good just to
make music and just kind of hang out

1082
01:36:40,680 --> 01:36:45,000
and hit the important shows. But
the most part, I'm not really looking.

1083
01:36:45,560 --> 01:36:49,279
We are playing Bristol, Connecticut on

01:38:10,039 --> 01:38:14,640
punk. It's gotta be the d
op It's hard Trammy West birthday party.

So it's got to be the dinners
to check them out. They're yeah,

1104
01:38:17,279 --> 01:38:20,520
they're good friends. We've made a
lot of good friends this year. We've

1105
01:38:20,600 --> 01:38:27,079
really made our way into like the
circle of punks, I guess you could

1106
01:38:27,119 --> 01:38:30,960
say, or just ThEC of the
circle of our music that we're playing.

1107
01:38:31,039 --> 01:38:36,840
Yeah, we really fell in and
have really grasping a hold of Yeah,

1108
01:38:38,000 --> 01:38:41,920
a lot of what's going on is
in our Facebook live chat and says booking

1109
01:38:42,000 --> 01:38:45,439
shows in New England during the winter
is always like rolling the dice. Yeah

1110
01:38:45,199 --> 01:38:49,640
it is. It's very hard doing
anything in New England, New England this

1111
01:38:49,760 --> 01:38:56,960
summer. Like the Sports Best out
in Boston. Yeah, it's like people's

1112
01:38:57,000 --> 01:39:00,000
houses and stuff. But we did
like a lot of Saturdays every Saturday this

1113
01:39:00,119 --> 01:39:06,680
year just rain, Yeah rained this
play it outside of the rain. Annoying.

1114
01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:10,920
Yeah, it was annoying. Made
the people still came out. A

1115
01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:14,720
lot of people came out. Sports
Fest was was a huge thing for us

1116
01:39:14,800 --> 01:39:16,920
this year. Any band out there
trying to make an aim for yourself,

1117
01:39:16,960 --> 01:39:19,880
sign up for these Porsche fests.
Yeah, they helped you out. Moost

1118
01:39:19,920 --> 01:39:24,960
parties yeah a small and it's a
town wide thing. The town wide thing.

1119
01:39:25,039 --> 01:39:28,399
It's approved. Yeah, you get
a lang out in the streets and

1120
01:39:28,479 --> 01:39:31,399
the crowd is just you get everything. You get everybody, the older people

1121
01:39:31,520 --> 01:39:35,880
that you know everything. Yeah,
it's yeah, more people can get you

1122
01:39:36,000 --> 01:39:40,399
out there. You lose the label
of a bar, so more people go.

1123
01:39:41,199 --> 01:39:46,680
A lot of people are are just
not interesting because it says bar or

1124
01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:49,600
you got to go to a bar. Yeah. I lose so many people

1125
01:39:49,640 --> 01:39:55,039
when I when I market twenty one
plus when you sucks to have to pull

1126
01:39:55,119 --> 01:39:58,880
off the whole ages show because where
do you play. It's so hard to

1127
01:39:58,960 --> 01:40:00,399
do. You do this on the
side the street though, and there's tons

1128
01:40:00,439 --> 01:40:03,880
of people. Oh yeah. Even
played two blocks away from Fenway, right

1129
01:40:03,960 --> 01:40:09,840
on the main strip right on turned
down. Yeah, they almost turned down,

1130
01:40:09,920 --> 01:40:15,880
but we were we're like outside of
like some fancy like coffee cafe thing,

1131
01:40:15,800 --> 01:40:20,960
like high rise that's probably why right
there, apartment building right behind you.

1132
01:40:21,279 --> 01:40:26,920
And then I started down that looked
like blue man. Yeah, I

1133
01:40:27,039 --> 01:40:30,800
was growing waters flying up. It
got to a point where all of our

1134
01:40:30,840 --> 01:40:34,119
stuff got soaked and we were like
all right, it was watertil it was

1135
01:40:34,239 --> 01:40:36,760
too much and I was like all
right, we're gonna be done. It

1136
01:40:38,359 --> 01:40:40,039
was good. But yeah, but
we still had the best of it.

1137
01:40:40,119 --> 01:40:44,399
You know, we had people pulling
up on the sidewalk in their cars just

1138
01:40:44,479 --> 01:40:48,680
filming us doing this and now blasts
like that's a lot of driving. There's

1139
01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:51,119
another band. You go a couple
of blocks hour, there's another band.

1140
01:40:51,199 --> 01:40:55,800
It's always a good time. That's
awesome. Didn't you guys say something earlier

1141
01:40:55,800 --> 01:41:00,079
too about you went out to Ohio? You played Now we're going yeah in

1142
01:41:00,159 --> 01:41:02,520
December, that's gonna be pretty much
the height of our winter. Now why

1143
01:41:02,560 --> 01:41:06,119
has that happened? Like like that's
all what a friend of ours name Dave

1144
01:41:06,199 --> 01:41:12,439
Strong. Check him out from Maine. Dave Strong, Maine, great guy,

1145
01:41:12,600 --> 01:41:16,520
great music. Yeah, helped us
out a lot. But he's going

1146
01:41:16,560 --> 01:41:23,680
on on tour okay, out through
Pennsylvania and Ohio, and we're jumping on

1147
01:41:23,800 --> 01:41:28,239
him with him for a show.
Yeah, he's got this very couple couple,

1148
01:41:28,439 --> 01:41:31,479
hopefully two shows to try and get
it more than one show. We

1149
01:41:31,560 --> 01:41:34,239
got all these dates in the road, so we're gonna try and we know

1150
01:41:34,399 --> 01:41:40,000
some people along the way, so
we're gonna hopefully Strong. He's that guy

1151
01:41:40,079 --> 01:41:45,640
though he's supported us a lot through
from the beginning. Dave guys, it's

1152
01:41:45,680 --> 01:41:49,439
awesome. So anybody can check him
out, like Dave Strong, Dave Strong,

1153
01:41:49,600 --> 01:41:53,840
check it out. Is he solo
artist or what he does? Both?

1154
01:41:53,920 --> 01:41:56,560
He does He's got a full band, but does does do solo?

1155
01:41:56,680 --> 01:41:59,439
Yeah, okay, all right,
cool. Yeah, he's heavy into it.

1156
01:42:00,399 --> 01:42:02,439
A lot of the people that we've
met are pretty heavy into I feel

1157
01:42:02,479 --> 01:42:08,399
like a lot of it. It's
like you got you got a couple,

1158
01:42:08,640 --> 01:42:13,399
We got a couple of guys that
are just like in everything, like yeah,

1159
01:42:13,520 --> 01:42:15,920
yeah, a lot of it kind
of is. Yeah, it's like

1160
01:42:15,039 --> 01:42:18,640
just one person doing a bunch of
things. Someone's gotta have the ideas.

1161
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:24,680
You know, someone's gonna be making
the ideas to the music. Stepsis in

1162
01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:28,119
the chout says, you guys are
so right. All ages shows are invisible

1163
01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:32,640
evidence why some younger people have a
tough time relating to human generated live performances.

1164
01:42:33,159 --> 01:42:36,359
This is true. Yeah, I
know, go ahead. Sorry.

1165
01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:41,880
A lot of it is just tough
to find a venue or like a lot

1166
01:42:41,920 --> 01:42:45,600
of people come from small towns and
it's like you can't go play a venue

1167
01:42:45,680 --> 01:42:47,880
unless you rent it, and nobody
wants to rent the venue because then you're

1168
01:42:48,119 --> 01:42:50,680
a thousand bucks a room. Right, right, right, Then if you

1169
01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:54,479
don't fill it, and if you
don't even make your money back, then

1170
01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:57,720
whatever you spend, it's just kind
of a waste. That's why, Like

1171
01:42:57,800 --> 01:43:01,000
I thought about doing undertone ones,
but it's like if I'm putting a thousand

1172
01:43:01,039 --> 01:43:04,520
bucks to put this room and I
need to sell at least one hundred tickets

1173
01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:08,560
and there's no way. Yeah,
right, you know it's not going to

1174
01:43:08,640 --> 01:43:12,800
happen, and a lot of people
are interested in yeah, the Dropkick Murphy.

1175
01:43:13,520 --> 01:43:16,319
Right, if you're not mainstream,
then it's like you're kind of like

1176
01:43:16,439 --> 01:43:23,079
nothing, which is sad because a
lot of the so cool, so cool,

1177
01:43:24,119 --> 01:43:27,079
it's just a lot more interesting.
Support your local guys. You know,

1178
01:43:27,399 --> 01:43:30,479
a lot of bookings wanted to do
though, all ages initiative from when

1179
01:43:30,520 --> 01:43:33,840
I heard I talked to I talked
to them a few a few weeks ago

1180
01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:38,720
at the Justin Clancy show. Yeah, which I think would be huge.

1181
01:43:39,399 --> 01:43:42,640
Definitely, I don't know, definitely
help everybody. It would help everyone.

1182
01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:46,079
You need a place that would just
want it, but you need a good

1183
01:43:46,159 --> 01:43:48,960
place that you gotta have a place
that has food. If you're gonna have

1184
01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:54,399
a place that's gonna at least be
underage you can do all the eighteen plus

1185
01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:57,039
shows you brought. You got to
have food, and you got to have

1186
01:43:57,359 --> 01:44:00,199
obviously a bar, but you can
just you just got to have the right

1187
01:44:00,319 --> 01:44:04,359
place. They just have someone who
wants to deal with like the responsibility of

1188
01:44:05,119 --> 01:44:10,279
Hey, we got underage kids here, but we also are serving adults as

1189
01:44:10,319 --> 01:44:12,960
well. There used to be I
don't know if any of you guys remember,

1190
01:44:13,239 --> 01:44:15,760
because this was a while ago,
the Sad Cafe in Plastow, do

1191
01:44:15,840 --> 01:44:26,119
you guys at all on the border? Yeah, that's right on the border,

1192
01:44:26,199 --> 01:44:31,880
but yeah, right, yeah,
yeah, they used to do all

1193
01:44:31,920 --> 01:44:35,640
ages shows. That was a great
place. I mean, I grew up

1194
01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:41,960
in Fitchburg and we always had the
Club four ninety. I'm not familiar with

1195
01:44:42,079 --> 01:44:44,840
that. That was all ages place. It was an all ages place.

1196
01:44:44,880 --> 01:44:48,479
I didn't even serve alcohol, yeah, you know, and you know,

1197
01:44:48,680 --> 01:44:53,319
like Matt Kelly from the Drug Kicks. Old bands used to play there for

1198
01:44:53,680 --> 01:45:00,279
abuse, no kidding, you know, Like I've seen so many bands there,

1199
01:45:00,399 --> 01:45:02,479
so I can't even remember them all
so many beers. He doesn't remember

1200
01:45:03,760 --> 01:45:09,159
that the beers? Is it?
Sam black Church played there? Oh really

1201
01:45:09,239 --> 01:45:12,720
yeah, back in the day,
you know, like it was it doesn't

1202
01:45:12,760 --> 01:45:15,600
exist anymore because the scene's gone.
But yeah, well that's a big thing

1203
01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:19,760
too. The scenes. Just I
feel like we're in the most unappreciated scene.

1204
01:45:21,600 --> 01:45:26,199
It's just there's no one that's really
stuff to play punk rockety yeah.

1205
01:45:26,199 --> 01:45:28,800
I feel like it's stough to play
punk Rockey days. No one, no

1206
01:45:28,880 --> 01:45:31,199
one's interested in what you're doing unless
you're big. I feel like that's the

1207
01:45:31,279 --> 01:45:35,600
toughest thing. That's always a struggle. I feel like all the other genres

1208
01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:40,800
people pay attention. Yeah, well
it's it's like a big local metal scene.

1209
01:45:41,079 --> 01:45:46,439
Yeah, scenes yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah. I just feel

1210
01:45:46,479 --> 01:45:51,000
like the punk rock scene it's just
really underappreciated, undervalued, and then but

1211
01:45:51,079 --> 01:45:58,680
we'll get it back. Yeah.
It goes on always, everything just trying

1212
01:45:58,720 --> 01:46:02,239
to get something to the show.
It just seems like it's very mm hmm

1213
01:46:02,880 --> 01:46:06,640
coming from like DJing and booking,
booking, DJs out here. Every things

1214
01:46:06,680 --> 01:46:13,479
coming go like right now, right
now. Within is Spanish and Latin right

1215
01:46:13,520 --> 01:46:18,479
now. Unfortunately, I mean fortunately, but like not unfortunate. But I'll

1216
01:46:18,520 --> 01:46:21,079
put you in a box too much. That's just like us. We'll play

1217
01:46:21,119 --> 01:46:27,880
a show for two people, then
we'll play a show for decent people and

1218
01:46:27,960 --> 01:46:30,600
you're like, all right, this
is awesome, Like but right, all

1219
01:46:30,640 --> 01:46:31,800
depend, you gotta do the grind, you know. That's what we've been

1220
01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:34,880
doing all year. We probably played
over fifty shows this year. But a

1221
01:46:34,920 --> 01:46:38,199
lot of it is just to get
out there. Yeah yeah, yeah,

1222
01:46:38,600 --> 01:46:42,159
sometimes it's just playing for the other
bands and everything's pay right now. That's

1223
01:46:42,199 --> 01:46:45,640
when I went on Like that's like
when I went on tour Austin, Texas,

1224
01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:50,560
we sold two tickets, but Nashville
we sold two hundred. Yeah.

1225
01:46:51,159 --> 01:46:56,239
There's also the connections you make along
right right. Yeah, We've seen a

1226
01:46:56,279 --> 01:46:59,680
bunch of touring bands, you know, and it's like we used to play

1227
01:46:59,760 --> 01:47:03,199
my Tuesday nights. Do that again
any night of the week. Yeah,

1228
01:47:03,319 --> 01:47:09,399
I'm mad. I'm that was at
that point though first. But you know,

1229
01:47:09,479 --> 01:47:13,640
when you're first starting out, even
just even just to make the connections

1230
01:47:13,680 --> 01:47:15,560
with all their bands, and you
gotta get yourself out there, play the

1231
01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:20,800
Monday night shows exactly abouday you say
yes to never who's gonna be there either

1232
01:47:21,680 --> 01:47:26,159
exactly, never say no. You
never know who's gonna be there, and

1233
01:47:26,439 --> 01:47:29,760
just going to that one show could
lead to you getting onto it instantly.

1234
01:47:29,960 --> 01:47:32,640
Just being there. It just makes
you could you could be on another show

1235
01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:35,359
that same night, just like hey, now, yeah we've played shows and

1236
01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:39,800
all of a sudden we leave that
night and we got three more shows just

1237
01:47:39,840 --> 01:47:43,279
