Welcome guys, Hello, thanks for having us. Man, 62 00:08:37,519 --> 00:08:41,000 Hey, please introduce ourselves and tell us who you are and what you 63 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,080 do in the band. Hi. This is Anthony Nacashtro. I am the 64 00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:48,799 lead singer and with them Leaga toy player of the band. I am Brian 65 00:08:48,919 --> 00:08:52,919 Barkstill. I am the backing vocals and bass player. And who are we 66 00:08:54,039 --> 00:09:00,799 missing? So we are missing our new drummer ed Battles And to our other 67 00:09:00,919 --> 00:09:03,799 guitar player, Sean Schaeffer is not with us today. Okay, okay, 68 00:09:05,159 --> 00:09:07,240 now neither of them have been murdered. I hope. Oh no, okay, 69 00:09:07,399 --> 00:09:13,000 just making sure why you look like you're about to say something. I 70 00:09:13,159 --> 00:09:16,399 thought about it, but I don't know. Your hand is on the controller. 71 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,879 Oh oh, he's getting ready to just shut me down again. You 72 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:26,639 see this law firm. Yes, yes, but that's so. Yeah, 73 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:33,080 but as uh as evidenced in one of our our ads. Yeah, just 74 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,519 call one of those guys with the really catchy jingles or something. Yeah, 75 00:09:35,639 --> 00:09:41,399 that's right, that's right now. Uh, Brian, were you were you 76 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,679 here with us? I remember Anthony you were here? Were you here also, 77 00:09:43,759 --> 00:09:45,639 Brian? Yes, I was here last time? Yep? Okay? 78 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:46,840 And is the lineup the same? I know it's been a few years, 79 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,679 so it's actually changed since the last time we're here, because I think the 80 00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:54,360 last time we were on the show, we had our drummer Zach King with 81 00:09:54,519 --> 00:09:58,919 us. Okay, So yeah, the lineups changed a little bit since the 82 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,039 last time we were here. Okay. Melanie, Uh, Liberty in the 83 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,919 chat room says, I would love to know the inspiration for this one. 84 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,960 I think we're all curious. So so that actually came as a blend of 85 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:20,080 multiple stories, and one being the h the assassination from John Lennon from Mark 86 00:10:20,159 --> 00:10:26,399 David Chapman, and then the assassination attempt from Reagan and the things the two 87 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:31,039 the one thing that they both had in common were both assailants were infatuated by 88 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,679 the book Catcher and the Rye. So I took all three and blended that 89 00:10:35,799 --> 00:10:41,480 into one song. So the first verse is all about John Lennon's murder. 90 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:46,320 The second verses about the assassination attempt and his an infatuation with Jordie Foster. 91 00:10:46,799 --> 00:10:50,360 Yeah, you know, you know, trying to prove our love to you 92 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,240 know, he was trying to prove his love to Jordie Foster. And then 93 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:58,639 the bridge section was about you know, the you know, the catcher in 94 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:03,720 the vibe, you know, and actually reference in the bridge itself in the 95 00:11:03,879 --> 00:11:07,720 rye. And then at the end, uh is their institutionalized and they have 96 00:11:07,799 --> 00:11:11,440 their thoughts. They got you know, they wanted fame, they wanted recognition, 97 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,480 but if they've got let out, who knows what they'd be capable of 98 00:11:15,639 --> 00:11:18,480 again. So with that repent, I'd kill again. And and it's a 99 00:11:18,519 --> 00:11:24,120 little it's a little bittersweet considering the fact in recent years Reagan's adapted A Sense 100 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,600 Assassin has actually been released for like what and like now he's playing and now 101 00:11:28,639 --> 00:11:33,080 he's trying to start a record label, like playing acoustic guitar. So it's 102 00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:37,519 just like, okay, I know, right, uh, well yeah, 103 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:43,039 it's I I was gonna say, I remember a couple of years ago, 104 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,919 two or three years ago, I was listening to Howard Stern one morning and 105 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,000 they were talking about that and and playing some because Uh, yeah, John 106 00:11:50,039 --> 00:11:54,480 Hinckley Junior, he's like, he's playing shows, he's got a it was 107 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,960 like a live performance that he did, him and an acoustic guitar, and 108 00:11:56,039 --> 00:12:01,120 they played some of it. Uh and it wasn't very good for one thing. 109 00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:03,759 But uh, but it's it's weird. It's such a weird world that 110 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,519 we live in. And you know, here is John Hinckley Junior who attempted 111 00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:13,720 to assassinate Ronald Reagan playing a show somewhere, and uh, I think he 112 00:12:13,919 --> 00:12:16,919 kind of got shut down. I think his career, his music career has 113 00:12:16,919 --> 00:12:20,720 already been kind of shut down because obviously he's a bit of a controversial figure. 114 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:26,120 Having an attempted to assassinates an understatement. But yeah, and uh, 115 00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:30,120 you know, I don't know, like, you know, I don't know 116 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,919 how anyone in the music industry would want to, you know, attach themselves 117 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,960 to him. Yeah, I mean, I mean, considering they've had some 118 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,440 colorful, uh characters in the music industry before. I mean, even the 119 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,759 guitarist from uh, the former guitarist of Cannibal Corpse. He was arrested for 120 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,960 having human remains in his house and it was just like, so he's no 121 00:12:46,039 --> 00:12:50,799 longer with Cannibal Corpse. Yeah, again, And I guess anything is possible. 122 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,919 I don't know how else to say something. I mean, people complain 123 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,440 about cancel culture, but there do have to be sublimits in terms of what 124 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,840 we'll tolerate, right right. I think I think I I would draw the 125 00:13:01,879 --> 00:13:07,639 line at uh the music of I would be assassin. Yeah sounds about right. 126 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,000 Yeah, yeah, but yeah, so yeah, I wondered what the 127 00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:16,240 uh so that's what what the song's about? It is? And Anthony, 128 00:13:16,279 --> 00:13:20,399 you wrote the lyrics. Is is everything that you write kind of dark like 129 00:13:20,519 --> 00:13:24,120 that or what? What? I don't think I have much of a happy 130 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:30,519 song stuff a little bit more doc than others. And it was funny when 131 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,440 I actually wrote the I think the chorus first in that song. I was 132 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,720 actually the music mall, just trying out guitars and I was just humming along 133 00:13:37,879 --> 00:13:39,879 and I made the chorus siff, and I'm like, oh, I like 134 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:45,440 that. So I've took a little video snapshot of me and uh, I'm 135 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,399 just humming no no no no no no no no no no no no no. 136 00:13:48,039 --> 00:13:52,159 Did the motive for you? Yeah? So I gotta So this brings 137 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:56,080 me to the story that I was I was gonna mention not before we came 138 00:13:56,159 --> 00:14:01,600 in. So when we he originally pitched the song to our original lineup, 139 00:14:01,639 --> 00:14:05,639 when our original guitar player Matt Harris, god Rest his soul was still alive, 140 00:14:05,919 --> 00:14:09,440 We're just like looking at each other like, wow, I do not 141 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,840 like this song. But but then again, we were like in between drummers 142 00:14:11,879 --> 00:14:16,279 at the time, and and just like the song just sounds just so disorganized 143 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,840 so anything, but like once we actually got a drummer back, like the 144 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,679 song just like really came together. And then of course it becomes the first 145 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:28,039 single that we released off of our second album, Vindicated, and it became 146 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:33,240 a much bigger hit than I ever thought was ever possible. I know, 147 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,399 hey, I've been wrong before. But and it was actually kind of funny 148 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,519 because like we after we had recorded it as a single, before we had 149 00:14:41,559 --> 00:14:48,320 it completely mastered, we put out a a demo on our YouTube channel and 150 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,559 some other some other stations in the area actually caught wind of it like before, 151 00:14:52,639 --> 00:14:54,919 and they thought it was like us releasing a new single. So we're 152 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,039 like looking at each other like, oh no, they're so they're playing the 153 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:03,360 unmastered track on the radio and it's just like, wow, we uh probably 154 00:15:03,399 --> 00:15:07,320 should have thought that went through, But after we had it put on the 155 00:15:07,399 --> 00:15:11,120 album, it became one of our more popular songs over the past few years. 156 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:15,240 So oh that's great. And to have it organically catch on like that, 157 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,440 you know, like radio stations playing the unmastered version, I mean that's 158 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,720 pretty cool actually yeaheah, it was kind of. It took us by surprise, 159 00:15:20,799 --> 00:15:24,279 honestly, big, big time surprise. Yeah, LOT'SOK at the album 160 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,799 mastered now. Yeah. Yeah, So this is why. It's just like 161 00:15:30,399 --> 00:15:33,840 if we if we have anything new coming out, it's just like we'll release 162 00:15:33,919 --> 00:15:37,879 like snippets and teasers and stuff like that. But yeah, if somebody's trying 163 00:15:37,919 --> 00:15:41,360 to get on hold of our music, and it's like they're going to just 164 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,600 immediately grab it and run with it. So yeah, yeah, I was 165 00:15:43,639 --> 00:15:48,120 really by the way you mentioned Matt Harris. I was really sad about that. 166 00:15:48,159 --> 00:15:52,639 It's been a few years now, four years September. Yeah, he 167 00:15:52,759 --> 00:15:56,159 had never he had never been on this show. But I knew Matt just 168 00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,600 from the sea. Yeah, and I forget what band he was in when 169 00:16:00,639 --> 00:16:04,679 I first met him. Blackout Frenzy was one of his bands. Yep, 170 00:16:06,639 --> 00:16:08,799 might have been. Might have been Blackout Frenzy. I remember it was one 171 00:16:08,799 --> 00:16:11,480 of his last ones, but I can't remember what the because I remember book 172 00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:15,279 yeah, because I remember when I used to promote Blushed Unreal was the other 173 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,600 one that he was with? Oh yeah, yeah yeah, but I think 174 00:16:17,639 --> 00:16:19,279 it was Blackout Frenzy he was with when I used to when I used to 175 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:25,200 book them. M hm, And uh what one of the genuinely nicest people 176 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,039 I've ever without a doubt, you know, it's so and I get to 177 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:32,000 tell you like it just shows how much of an impact he had on the 178 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:36,919 local scene. Because as soon as the news resonated that he had passed away, 179 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,559 I was actually very amazed. Another show did a segment on him, 180 00:16:41,559 --> 00:16:47,399 actually read his obituary on the air, said where his his wake and funeral 181 00:16:47,559 --> 00:16:49,080 was going to be. And we just see, like so many of the 182 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,879 other local bands that he's either been with or he's friends with, just that 183 00:16:55,879 --> 00:16:59,519 the crowd that he drew to his wake was amazing. It just it really 184 00:16:59,519 --> 00:17:03,000 showed him much of an impact he had on this community, and it was 185 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,880 just it was just it was nice to see so many people come out and 186 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,400 pay their respects for him. It really was. We were very humbled and 187 00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:14,359 you know, very floored honestly about the amount of support that you know, 188 00:17:14,519 --> 00:17:17,839 came out and drove. Yeah, he knew a lot of people, not 189 00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:21,079 just you know, within the music industry, but you know his work work 190 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,839 industry too. Yep. And he was just a very generally good hearted person. 191 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,599 Oh yeah, absolutely, yeah, yeah, it was. It was 192 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,839 tragic to you know, first to watch it from day one when he got 193 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,160 the diagnosis to the very and it was it was cancer. Yeah yeah, 194 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,279 yeah, yeah, it started off as colon cancer but then just mess aside 195 00:17:40,759 --> 00:17:44,880 to different organs and yeah, but it was one of those things where he 196 00:17:45,039 --> 00:17:48,400 caught it extremely late and like he had all the signs, but he never 197 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,319 got checked for it. Oh okay, that was really kind of what did 198 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,519 him in Get checked everyone, if you're listening, get checked. Yeah. 199 00:17:53,799 --> 00:17:56,359 And this is why the same thing, like every time I talked to like 200 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,599 somebody in the medical industry, this is why they're reducing the a of like 201 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,319 a first colonoscopy down to forty five because now there are more and more signs 202 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:11,599 of like colon cancer that are popping up much earlier on and it's one of 203 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,160 the most preventable that you can get, Like, if you catch it quick, 204 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,920 it can be it can be cured. And he was he was young, 205 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:23,759 okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, unbelievable. How long was he 206 00:18:23,839 --> 00:18:27,279 in Purging Sin? Five years? Five years? Yeah, okay, okay, 207 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:30,680 yeah, No, I was very I was very sad too. I 208 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,680 can't believe it's been four years already that he's been gone. Wow. Yeah, 209 00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:38,119 but uh, I mean, did you guys, what was that like 210 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,960 for you guys in terms of, you know, very often people deal with 211 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:48,279 grief creatively? Did did did did any music come out of that? There 212 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,599 were two songs that came out of it, and one will be played later 213 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,599 on the show is a song called Hell and the Horizon. Oh my god, 214 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,079 what a great track. So so that was the last song that he 215 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,759 has ever recorded with us, So I had no idea. Yeah. So 216 00:19:04,559 --> 00:19:10,519 the second guitar solo in that song during after the clean Bridge breakdown that we 217 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,480 have, that's him playing guitar. But we also wrote a song and put 218 00:19:14,519 --> 00:19:18,880 it on our second album, Vindicated, which is called Shell of Bones. 219 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,799 So the riff was actually composed by him, but he had not played on 220 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,039 this track. So that was a song that we wrote in as an homage 221 00:19:26,079 --> 00:19:29,039 to him. Yes, oh I had no idea. Wow. Yeah, 222 00:19:29,079 --> 00:19:30,720 it's a great, great song, great song. Yeah, I look forward 223 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:37,119 to sharing that with everybody. Now, So are you guys? What have 224 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,960 you been doing? Have you been playing a lot of shows or have you 225 00:19:40,079 --> 00:19:45,799 been We've been very busy and it's I mean so obviously like a lot of 226 00:19:45,839 --> 00:19:48,759 stuff has been kind of just it's been slowing down but also picking up and 227 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,880 summer now for us has actually getten very busy. We actually just we actually 228 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,119 just came off of a show at Tupelo Music Hall. We opened for the 229 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:03,960 the all female eighties metal band Vixen. That's cool. So we just got 230 00:20:03,039 --> 00:20:07,240 that one, and then of course the big one that we have next Thursdays, 231 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,440 we're returning to the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion to play on the hazy 232 00:20:10,519 --> 00:20:15,359 little stage before God Smacked Nothing More and Flat Black, So that's that's really 233 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:21,720 the big one. But Vixen did they play obviously they played Edge of a 234 00:20:21,759 --> 00:20:25,359 Broken Heart that was the closer. Yet did they play How Much Love? 235 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:33,119 We were watching the most unfortunately, And it's funny because like the only original 236 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,920 member of Vixen is is Rocky Petrucci, the drummer, and they just debuted 237 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,200 their their new lead singer, I can't remember what her name was, but 238 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,960 very nice group of girls and they put out a new album just with him 239 00:20:45,039 --> 00:20:48,920 last year. I think yes. And funny thing is is, uh they 240 00:20:48,039 --> 00:20:52,480 actually had a lead singer, Lorraine Lewis, and they recorded that album with 241 00:20:52,599 --> 00:20:59,240 her. I think there's this single was called Red. But it's it's funny 242 00:20:59,279 --> 00:21:03,160 because like I had a situation with my Uh so, my aunt actually met 243 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,880 Lorraine Lewis a few months ago. She's actually recorded my aunt has recorded backing 244 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,720 tracks on a Lorraine Lewis track. So I was thinking to myself, I'm 245 00:21:11,759 --> 00:21:17,279 like, so my aunt is talking up Lorraine Lewis about us, and I 246 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,359 was thinking, man, this would come full circle if like we got the 247 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,599 show, we're opening for Vixen, but then Lorraine Lewis leaves Vixen months before 248 00:21:23,599 --> 00:21:26,000 we're supposed to open for this, So it was like it was this close 249 00:21:26,079 --> 00:21:30,160 to becoming full circle. Like yeah, the fact that like they were talking 250 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,640 us up and then the next thing, you know, we're playing with Vixen. 251 00:21:33,799 --> 00:21:37,319 So that's pretty wild. Yeah, I think too, like her leaving. 252 00:21:37,519 --> 00:21:40,359 It was it was there's some kind of issue, right, I think 253 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,720 legally or something like. If I'm not mistaken, it was not. I 254 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,960 think it was like a creative thing. But I really can't remember what the 255 00:21:48,039 --> 00:21:53,200 reason was. I saw something about it, but there was there was some 256 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:57,240 sort of a disagreement, as so often happens, Yeah, in the music 257 00:21:57,319 --> 00:22:00,279 industry. Yeah, so the drummers, she's only original member, correct, 258 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,160 Yeah, and they were all nice people. We got to hang out after 259 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,960 the show with them, do they it's all out yeah, yeah, yeah. 260 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:11,640 So we have a couple of pictures on our Instagram of us, I 261 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,559 mean both me and Anthony with our respective players. So I'm with the bass 262 00:22:15,599 --> 00:22:18,240 player, he's with the lead singer. So it was it was a night. 263 00:22:18,319 --> 00:22:19,359 It was a good night. We had we had fun. Now, 264 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,480 what is so in a scenario like that though? So how do you, 265 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,240 I mean, what is your mindset? Because you have to know going into 266 00:22:26,319 --> 00:22:33,000 that, this is you guys don't sound like Vixen and and you know, 267 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,119 and and the typical I don't want to say typical, but you know, 268 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,799 I mean Vixen. If for anyone who doesn't know, for for youngins who 269 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,079 might be listening. You know, they were you could call them hair metal. 270 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,839 Some people don't like that term, but yeah, you know from the 271 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,640 eighties. You know, they had a couple of big hits and but very 272 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,880 much that sound, and you guys are very much not that sound. So 273 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:57,799 how do you like going into that? Do you worry about that? Do 274 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:03,880 you? It depends on who we're playing with. I mean, I was 275 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,480 amazed that we actually got the show with Vixen. Obviously there's other like bands 276 00:23:07,559 --> 00:23:11,000 from the eighties that are a little bit more attuned to our music. I 277 00:23:11,079 --> 00:23:15,640 mean Metal Church when we played with them last year, they were definitely a 278 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:22,640 lot closer to our sound. But I think it's also a matter of like. 279 00:23:22,839 --> 00:23:26,000 Because our sound is so unique, it's kind of hard for us to 280 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:32,160 pair with other similar types of artists. But as I said, they've they've 281 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,079 been booking some really great shows at Tupelo, And as soon as I caught 282 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,039 win that Vixen was coming, I was just like, you know what I'm 283 00:23:37,079 --> 00:23:40,920 gonna I was gonna take a gamble on it, see if they needed it. 284 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,640 I was amazed they they reached out and they said yes, and we 285 00:23:45,799 --> 00:23:48,920 just hopped on it. As quickly as we could. And then so what 286 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:53,440 what happens like is the crowd is there kind of a process of winning them 287 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,920 over? Is there sometimes is in these situations. I mean it didn't like 288 00:23:57,039 --> 00:24:02,000 they were loving it from the you know, no, I mean there were 289 00:24:02,039 --> 00:24:06,039 people there was the first table in front of us, they like all headbanging. 290 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:07,559 Good. Now, I mean we one thing we started doing. One 291 00:24:07,599 --> 00:24:11,440 more is the crowd gets closer to us, close enough, you can start 292 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,319 like you can start playing like handem my guitar, I pick yeah, a 293 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,599 midstroke and go grab another one. Yeah. And it's stuff like that. 294 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:21,319 The interaction so you're not like, you know, ten twenty feet away from 295 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:22,519 them, you can you know, get you know, you know, there's 296 00:24:22,759 --> 00:24:26,559 no mosh pit in front of you. There's still a lot of engagement and 297 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,839 interaction right as well. And that the crowd reaction was phenomenal. When would 298 00:24:30,839 --> 00:24:34,000 play like clean parts of a song, they had the cell phones up. 299 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,880 That was when I was doing the hey hey hey, they would chance on 300 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:42,279 it back. Yeah. So I mean that that's really it's still always comes 301 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,319 like as a shock to me every time I do something on you know, 302 00:24:45,519 --> 00:24:48,839 vocal wise, and they would spawn back to me, I'm like, wow, 303 00:24:49,079 --> 00:24:53,319 I'm like, but it's coming. And at the same time, with 304 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,640 us being like an opening act for a lot of these guys, is our 305 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,519 job is to just get the crowd fired up, getting them ready, and 306 00:25:00,519 --> 00:25:04,640 like, if we have the crowd excited and enjoying our music, at the 307 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:10,160 same time, I know we've done our job and we're very lively on stage. 308 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,680 We're not statues by any stretches. Oh right right. Oh, by 309 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,920 the way, I missed this comment. Or do you guys know Bruce from 310 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:19,799 Legion of Solas. I do not know. He's in Massachusetts, but does 311 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,920 a ton of a ton of work with musicians from all over New England and 312 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,160 promotional wise, and we had him on the show. Great guy and someone 313 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,599 you should definitely meet. But he he mentioned this. You know, we 314 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,559 were talking earlier about the murder song. He said, don't forget Manson wrote 315 00:25:33,599 --> 00:25:37,799 a guns N' Roses song, which one was that I can't remember. I 316 00:25:37,839 --> 00:25:44,839 thought he worked with the Beach Beach Boys Manson Charles Manson, Yeah, I 317 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,799 thought he's with the Beach Boys. Oh the Monkeys are I have to look 318 00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:52,960 that up. I'm appreciate it. He worked with one of those bands in 319 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,960 the sixties. Yeah, I know he was inspired by Helter Skelter by the 320 00:25:57,039 --> 00:26:00,640 Beatles. I know that. Yeah, And I mean it's funny much much 321 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,880 like any modern horror movie, like the best inspiration comes from the worst of 322 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,720 society. That was a quote I remember watching from a celebrity graveyard channel that 323 00:26:10,799 --> 00:26:15,480 I follow, and yeah, they actually uh when I was watching that same 324 00:26:15,599 --> 00:26:19,759 channel, I remember they highlighted the grave of head ed Gean, which was 325 00:26:19,839 --> 00:26:25,680 the inspiration of like Sounds of the Lambs, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and was 326 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:30,359 actually the premises for Slayers Dead Skin Mask. Okay, so because he was 327 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,880 the plainfield butcher, the guy who would tear off people skin and use it 328 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,920 for clothing or lampshades or furniture stuff like that. So that that's what I 329 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:44,920 mean. It's just like some of the most horrific things like in songs and 330 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,279 media come from like reality. So it's it's strange, but it really is. 331 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,839 Now, what was opening for you? Guys? Opened for Metal Church. 332 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:59,519 Yes, that was fun awesome, So those guys, I actually I 333 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,440 met those guys back in twenty nineteen on board the inaugural Megadeth crews that I 334 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:10,279 happened to just win a free cabin to And it's funny because Stet Holland, 335 00:27:10,319 --> 00:27:14,759 who is formerly of the band Wasp, he's now playing drums for Metal Church. 336 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,200 He's from Onset, Massachusetts, so he's a fellow mass native like me. 337 00:27:18,759 --> 00:27:22,839 So we started talking over the past few years. Really nice guy, 338 00:27:25,039 --> 00:27:26,599 and we've just stayed in contact over the years. And I heard they were 339 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,680 coming to town and I was just like, can we play with you guys? 340 00:27:30,759 --> 00:27:33,039 And we worked it out, we got a hold of it, and 341 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,240 then of course the new lead singer, Mark Lopes, who was in Ross 342 00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:41,359 the Boss from man O War. He actually took over for Mike cow after 343 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,720 he passed away in twenty twenty one. And it's funny because I talked to 344 00:27:45,799 --> 00:27:49,440 Mark all the time. He's once again a fellow Massachusetts native. He actually 345 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,400 went to high school with a friend of my dad's, so and then we 346 00:27:53,519 --> 00:27:57,119 finally like actually met each other playing the show together. And it's just like 347 00:27:59,079 --> 00:28:02,279 half the band is like based out of Seattle and have the band is based 348 00:28:02,319 --> 00:28:06,279 out of Boston. It's just such such a cool mix. But those guys 349 00:28:06,319 --> 00:28:10,279 they're just they're they're hot tickets. They are they're great guys all around. 350 00:28:10,599 --> 00:28:14,079 That crowd must have been really into what you oh oh yeah, yeah. 351 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,559 That was probably one of our more livelier crowds we've had, even though they 352 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,400 had they had the dining room table thing all across the stage, and like 353 00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:23,839 I that was the thing We've heard from all the fans was like, oh, 354 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,519 we should have been standing room, We should have had much pizes. 355 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:33,680 It's quite funny, Bruce just put this in the chat room. Uh so. 356 00:28:33,839 --> 00:28:37,880 The song Charles Manson wrote that Guns and Roses recorded was called look at 357 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,440 Your Game. Oh, look at your Game girl. It was on the 358 00:28:41,599 --> 00:28:44,960 album The Spaghetti Incident. Oh okay, okay, and those of us who 359 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:49,880 are old enough may remember the album being pulled from the shelves as a fourteen 360 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:55,839 track album and being re released as a thirteen track album. This is why 361 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:00,599 social back Oh, this is why social backlash against the single goal. I 362 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,079 don't remember that. Thank you Bruce for sharing that. I actually don't remember 363 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,480 that, but I mean, I do remember there being some sort of controversy 364 00:29:07,519 --> 00:29:11,440 around the Spaghetti Incident, but I didn't remember that it was that. That's 365 00:29:11,519 --> 00:29:17,079 interesting. That was a cover album. Yeah yeah, yeah, very interesting, 366 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:23,640 but certainly not the first time that there's been controversy around a Guns N' 367 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:29,359 Roses song and it and a song being pulled because I remember at one point, 368 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,039 what was uh one in a million on song One in a million? 369 00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:38,519 No, it was, it was before that, it was there, it 370 00:29:38,599 --> 00:29:41,599 might be no appetite definitely wasn't on that. I think it's on lives be 371 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,079 and our lives might be, but you use your else. I'm sorry. 372 00:29:45,599 --> 00:29:48,839 One in a million, I remember, uh, they they reissued that at 373 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:53,680 one point because there's a couple of words in there that you really can't say. 374 00:29:56,279 --> 00:29:59,720 But yeah, so not the not the first time. But also guns 375 00:29:59,759 --> 00:30:02,839 and is one of those bands that you know, made any kind of controversy 376 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:07,039 kind of work for them. Certainly the whole no, no probility, those 377 00:30:07,079 --> 00:30:11,839 other things bad publicity right right right, which does have its limits. I 378 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,240 mean it's not literally true, but but it is true in a lot of 379 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,920 uh. I mean, even look at the album that was released by Slayer 380 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:26,240 back in twenty twenty one. It just like it coincided just terribly but perfectly 381 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,839 with like the days and the events of it. But it's just like, 382 00:30:29,039 --> 00:30:32,920 I mean, they advertise themselves as like an as like an anti religion band 383 00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:36,720 anyway, but that really caused the controversy because it happened to be released on 384 00:30:36,839 --> 00:30:40,559 nine to eleven was the album God Hates Us All. Oh yeah, yeah, 385 00:30:40,599 --> 00:30:44,759 yeah, yep, So obviously that really kind of like that gonna that's 386 00:30:44,799 --> 00:30:48,960 gonna leave some negative backlash, but yet funny enough, it's like one of 387 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,640 the most popular albums I've ever released. Yeah, yeah, well that was 388 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,079 always a little the dynamics in that band too, a little bit complicated creatively 389 00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:03,079 because Tom Area is actually a devout Catholic, yes, and carry King is 390 00:31:03,079 --> 00:31:06,920 the one who's actually the Satanist Yeah, and very very much an atheist carry 391 00:31:07,039 --> 00:31:08,839 King, yeah, very much. Yeah. And I remember reading an interview 392 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,559 once. I was always kind of fascinated by this where you know, somebody 393 00:31:11,599 --> 00:31:15,680 asked Tom Morea about that, you know, and you know, you got 394 00:31:15,759 --> 00:31:18,440 to sing these lyrics, but but you're a Christian, and you know, 395 00:31:18,559 --> 00:31:22,039 he said something like, you know, and you know, I I agreed 396 00:31:22,079 --> 00:31:25,000 with this point of view. It made sense to me. He just said, 397 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:26,319 well, look, I mean, they're they're songs. You know, 398 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:32,279 I'm not necessarily these aren't necessarily my thoughts and ideas you know, when you're 399 00:31:32,279 --> 00:31:34,119 singing a song, you're kind of playing a character in a sense, right, 400 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:38,200 You're you know, like the murder song. You know you're not you're 401 00:31:38,279 --> 00:31:42,279 not advocating for murder. You're putting yourself in the in the mind of the 402 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:48,519 headspace. And this is there's a difference between like and much like much like 403 00:31:48,599 --> 00:31:52,359 acting, there's a difference between what an actor plays and how the actor actually 404 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,240 acts in reality. Now you look at like any of like the black metal 405 00:31:56,279 --> 00:32:00,440 bands you see out there, like Dark Funeral, they pract just what they 406 00:32:00,519 --> 00:32:04,480 preach, so they are they are the true Satanists, like the blood drinking 407 00:32:04,599 --> 00:32:07,519 whatever. So is that true? Really? Yeah? Like that's what That's 408 00:32:07,519 --> 00:32:10,839 what I mean. Same thing with what was the other one Behemoth, the 409 00:32:12,079 --> 00:32:15,039 lead singer Nergal, same thing. He's a he's a devout Satanist. And 410 00:32:15,119 --> 00:32:17,799 there's a difference between action versus advocated, right, Yeah, yeah, of 411 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:22,119 course. But even some of these guys who call themselves Satanists, I mean 412 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:27,400 there's I mean, because Satanism isn't literally I don't think for most people, 413 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,720 they don't actually worship Satan. It's just you know, like, yeah, 414 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:35,839 Satanism. So basically there is a difference between it, like the actual Satanism 415 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,279 actually believes in human sacrifice, drinking blood, all that kind of stuff, 416 00:32:38,359 --> 00:32:44,559 whereas like the the LaVey Satanisms for and the the Temple of Satan, they 417 00:32:44,599 --> 00:32:51,559 are basically just glorified atheists using Satan as their kind of centerpiece of focus because 418 00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:53,960 it's supposed to be about the worship of the self ass as opposed to like, 419 00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:00,759 you know, actual practicing rituals that are within the faith. Yeah. 420 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:06,920 Yeah, we had Jenny probably remembers this. We had a running joke. 421 00:33:07,039 --> 00:33:08,880 This was a number of years ago, but we had a running joke on 422 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:13,039 this show, and we don't we don't really talk about politics anymore on this 423 00:33:13,119 --> 00:33:16,200 iteration of the program, but we had There was Brandon Finney who was a 424 00:33:16,279 --> 00:33:22,279 New Hampshire State Repkay. He there was some controversy around him because he had 425 00:33:22,319 --> 00:33:28,559 come out as a Satanist and he's a Republican, so he is expected to 426 00:33:28,559 --> 00:33:30,559 be a Christian, but he had come out as a Satanist and a lot 427 00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:32,200 of people were mad at him and apparently he's not even really a Satanist. 428 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,720 He was just kind of trolling. Yeah, But so we had a running 429 00:33:36,839 --> 00:33:39,640 joke on the show though for a long time that we wanted to have him 430 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:44,480 on the show to discuss this with him and explore the subject. But he 431 00:33:44,559 --> 00:33:50,599 had some very specific demands and that exactly he wouldn't come on unless exactly thirteen 432 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,519 days before his appearance on the show, we sacrificed to go in the studio 433 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:58,960 and then and then he demanded that we This was when we were in our 434 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,119 old student on on Elm Street, on the third floor. We had to, 435 00:34:02,319 --> 00:34:06,440 uh, we had to then after sacrificing the goat, push the goat 436 00:34:06,519 --> 00:34:10,440 out the window and onto Elm Street and then retrieve some of the blood at 437 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,679 that point and so forth. So he had this whole thing he wanted us 438 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:15,440 to do, or he refused to come on the show. To this day, 439 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,800 I don't know, And I'm Facebook friends with him and we've talked and 440 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,159 he's been on the show, but I don't know if he to this day, 441 00:34:22,199 --> 00:34:25,880 if he has any idea that that was a running joke on the program. 442 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,039 That is, I don't know if he even knows, And I've never 443 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:35,239 asked him if he knows, because in my twisted mind, him not knowing 444 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,079 makes it even funnier. Yes, it's just just to me. But anyway, 445 00:34:39,159 --> 00:34:42,400 Yeah, we had a we had a running joke about that further went 446 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,360 on for a couple of years. You know, whenever his name would come 447 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:49,519 up, I guess I need to go, you know, opened up. 448 00:34:49,559 --> 00:34:52,920 I mean I moonlight as a butcher. Yes, well, I I just 449 00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:58,039 uh, you know, I used to say too, I I because I 450 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,599 said, I remember saying on the air that I told and I said, 451 00:35:00,639 --> 00:35:04,199 look, dude, we're not zoned for that, and you know that we 452 00:35:04,519 --> 00:35:07,960 can't risk uh staying in the carpets and things, getting on equipment and whatnot. 453 00:35:08,039 --> 00:35:12,360 So he just I mean that's valuable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 454 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,119 I mean there's and there's a fine line for this kind of stuff. It's 455 00:35:15,199 --> 00:35:19,280 just like I mean, if it's if it's a ritualistic as long as it's 456 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,719 not really harming anybody, then I don't it is what it is. But 457 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:27,360 like when you start causing like bodily harm and ending life, it's just oh 458 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,000 yeah, you're drawing a very very quick line right there. Yeah. And 459 00:35:30,119 --> 00:35:35,199 that's really where like a lot of these these these people who practice these rituals, 460 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,480 it's just like okay, human sacrifice, You're you're basically taking the life 461 00:35:37,519 --> 00:35:42,599 of another It's that's well, of course, yeah, so or harming animals, 462 00:35:42,639 --> 00:35:45,440 are harming any any living thing I object to, of course, but 463 00:35:45,639 --> 00:35:49,519 it's it's like, that's basically just like crossing the line and jumping off a 464 00:35:49,559 --> 00:35:53,440 cliff And of course, yeah, of course, how did we get onto 465 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:57,400 that. I don't even remember, Oh oh yeah, because we were talking 466 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:02,760 about themes of the song. Yeah. Yeah, But is Vixen the most 467 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,679 unusual show you guys have done as far as a match with other bands, 468 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:08,119 or if you have, you don't any any others that are really I mean, 469 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:12,679 Kicks was a boy here. I think you guys opened for Kids. 470 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,840 Yeah, that was another one we did last year too. Yeah, that 471 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,599 one I think was a little bit more of an odd match as far as 472 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:22,000 that goes, because I mean they are definitely a lot more glam metal than 473 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,639 than Vixen is. I mean, Vixen's a little bit more edgier than Kicks 474 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:30,039 is. But yeah, because it was funny, like Anthony had mentioned, 475 00:36:30,079 --> 00:36:32,800 because this is the first time we ever played at the Vault in New Bedford, 476 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,480 and they're they're very famous for bringing in a lot of like the eighties, 477 00:36:37,679 --> 00:36:42,119 Uh, metal bands and stuff, and I was just like, because 478 00:36:42,119 --> 00:36:45,159 I knew the Vault, I've been to multiple shows at the Vault. It's 479 00:36:45,199 --> 00:36:47,639 a great venue. And uh, he mentioned who we were playing with, 480 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,639 and I'm actually the one who was like super influenced by the glam metal scene 481 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,639 back in college, and I loved Kicks when I was in college. So 482 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,320 as soon as he said that we were opening for Kicks, I just like 483 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,119 immediately start freaking out when I like, Hey, Brian we Go offered the 484 00:37:02,159 --> 00:37:05,719 show for this band, called to do it, and I'm just like, 485 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:07,320 I didn't know anything. I really didn't know much about Kicks, and I 486 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,800 didn't know if it was a fan of Kicks. So it probably came off 487 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,639 like as like a matter of fact type, do you like nonchalant, like 488 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,320 we can offer the show for Kicks, want to do it? Yeah, 489 00:37:16,119 --> 00:37:20,639 that one really got me excited. But but the thing is, it's just 490 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,519 like, and this is where I kind of wish like the headliners could be 491 00:37:24,559 --> 00:37:28,920 a little bit more respectful to the local openers because we arrived on the scene, 492 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,719 like right at the sound check, but they just took right off and 493 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:35,360 so we we were on scene, we were interacting with everybody saying hey, 494 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,320 And the only time we ever got to interact with them was like a couple 495 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:42,000 of fans stuck around after the show. I went inside because I wanted to 496 00:37:42,079 --> 00:37:45,320 say thank you for having us, and I was able to talk to Brian 497 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:49,159 ForSight, the guitar player, just say thank you, and it was just 498 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,559 like who's this guy? So it was but I don't know. I mean 499 00:37:52,639 --> 00:37:57,079 with Metal Church, they hung out with us. We were very sour merch 500 00:37:57,159 --> 00:37:59,840 tables side by side, so we were interacting. I Shore was open. 501 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,920 Yeah, he was having some hip troubles. I got gore and stuff that 502 00:38:04,079 --> 00:38:07,800 he is that hip surgery. Yeah, because originally they were supposed to play 503 00:38:07,559 --> 00:38:10,719 once again at at Tupelo this year, but because he had to have that 504 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:14,719 emergency surgery, they had to cancel all their dates this year. Yeah. 505 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,800 But yeah, so and we we've interacted with them, We talked with them 506 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:22,119 backstage, they hung with us. They were actually like willing to just like 507 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,119 sit and talk with us the whole time. So they were they were what 508 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:29,239 we we hope, like anybody we play with would be just down to earth 509 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,400 and just social, you know. I mean, you're playing with bands that 510 00:38:31,559 --> 00:38:36,760 are trying to be in the shoes of the people that are putting these shows 511 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,760 together. So and this is what we love is like we love to learn 512 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:44,320 about the industry. We want to learn how to be better, and what 513 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,039 a better way to learn from somebody than the people who are actually in the 514 00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:53,639 Industry's yeah, exactly exactly. I'm trying to remember Kicks, like they had 515 00:38:53,679 --> 00:38:58,960 a a few hipps. That's the big one. That was the big one, 516 00:38:59,039 --> 00:39:01,679 big power ballad, but obviously like they had the long stripe and the 517 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:07,280 strip of songs from cold Blood to girl Money. Girl Money is the one. 518 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,679 I was just thinking about it because that one stands out to me because 519 00:39:08,679 --> 00:39:12,199 I remember the first time I heard it, I thought it was ACDC yep. 520 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,000 And then obviously like the whole Don't Blow, the whole blow my Fuse 521 00:39:15,079 --> 00:39:20,039 album was like it was like the biggest thing. But obviously Midnight Dynamite was 522 00:39:20,039 --> 00:39:22,719 another great album. I think those were like the two best albums for those 523 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,920 guys. But when they came out with their final album, Rock Your Face 524 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,559 Off, I think back in twenty thirteen, twenty fourteen something like that, 525 00:39:29,679 --> 00:39:32,320 they had two singles off of that one, which was love Me with your 526 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:36,559 Top Down and the other one that they worked into their final set list, 527 00:39:36,599 --> 00:39:38,199 which was Wheels in Motion. Okay, so that one was the one that 528 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:42,440 kind of did. But when they played the the setless live, a lot 529 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:46,360 of the stuff came off of Midnight Dynamite and Don't and blow My Fuse. 530 00:39:46,639 --> 00:39:50,920 Yeah, those were that was really kind of what helped you got to play 531 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:52,639 the hits? Yeah? Did they did? They close with uh, don't 532 00:39:52,639 --> 00:39:57,000 close their Eyes. They actually closed with blow my Fuse. Oh ok. 533 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,079 Yeah. And it's funny because we I had no idea that they were actually 534 00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:05,000 gonna plan on hanging it up after after last year, so it was like 535 00:40:05,079 --> 00:40:07,039 second to the last show. I think, oh, something along that later 536 00:40:07,199 --> 00:40:10,599 because they did a they did their final show in their home state of Maryland 537 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:15,079 and uh and back in September twenty twenty three, they called it quits for 538 00:40:15,199 --> 00:40:17,960 good. Oh wow, So they were on a farewell tour basically essentially, 539 00:40:19,159 --> 00:40:22,039 he didn't tell anyone. Yeah, they didn't tell anyone. Wow. Oh 540 00:40:22,079 --> 00:40:29,199 good for them, I guess for not going for the cash crab right Molly 541 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:30,800 crue. But I know, oh, I know, it was like swy 542 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:35,079 Vince. I mean, I feel worse for John five. I mean I 543 00:40:35,199 --> 00:40:37,920 just saw him on Valentine's Day this year and he's he's amazing, But like, 544 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,039 for me, it just baffles me that he's working with those guys in 545 00:40:42,159 --> 00:40:45,079 like Motley Crue and like they've got everybody in Motley Crue is just like so 546 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,320 out there. I mean, Nikki six, he's he's a bright dude, 547 00:40:47,639 --> 00:40:52,480 but like Vincent and Tommy, they are just wow, oh my god, 548 00:40:52,599 --> 00:40:55,039 gosh. The last time I saw Motley Crue, this must have been ten 549 00:40:55,159 --> 00:41:00,280 years ago. They were on the co headlining tour they did with Kiss and 550 00:41:00,599 --> 00:41:06,280 during Don't Go Away Mad. Now everyone knows Vince sounds terrible live, but 551 00:41:06,559 --> 00:41:08,079 you don't, you know, like with a lot of bands, though you 552 00:41:08,159 --> 00:41:13,000 don't necessarily notice it when you're if you're actually seeing them live, you don't 553 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,039 realize until later when you go find the YouTube video because when you're live, 554 00:41:16,159 --> 00:41:19,960 you know you're in the moment and everything's loud, and you just don't notice. 555 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:24,199 But Vince during Don't Go Away Mad, you know the fast part at 556 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:29,840 the end, he at one point he hits a note that was so like, 557 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:34,440 what is that that? My friend Dan WMNH. Listeners know him as 558 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,039 Dan Randall of Dan Randall and the Randletts. Dan and I actually looked at 559 00:41:37,079 --> 00:41:42,079 each other like what was that, Like he just was so And then recently 560 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,519 I saw a video of them from recently playing. They open a set with 561 00:41:47,679 --> 00:41:51,800 a Primal Scream, which happens to be my favorite Miley Cruse song. I 562 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,679 was like, oh cool, I play it, and as soon as Vince 563 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,320 starts, it's like he's not even singing, He's just kind of blurting out 564 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,880 the words. Yeah, it was like it's so bad. Yeah, because 565 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,920 I think the last time I saw them, they were doing a headlining tour 566 00:42:05,119 --> 00:42:09,079 with Hinder as their opener. This was at the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion. 567 00:42:10,079 --> 00:42:16,400 Guy, Yeah, exactly and one hit wonder But and I still remember 568 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:20,840 like, as soon as they go into doctor feel Good, I'm just listening 569 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:22,639 to him. He's not even singing half the words. But I mean, 570 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:27,559 that was also a tough concert for me because some more on behind me as 571 00:42:27,599 --> 00:42:30,199 I was sitting watching the show, headbanging too hard, accidentally head butts me 572 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,719 in the back of the head and gives me a concussion. Really, so 573 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,599 I'm literally like I felt like somebody had driven like a railroad stake through my 574 00:42:37,679 --> 00:42:43,239 head. So after after Doctor Field Good, me and my dad looked at 575 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,920 each other because like I was about ready to throw up because I had a 576 00:42:45,039 --> 00:42:50,800 migraine so bad, and me and my dad looked just like we need to 577 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,039 get out of here, Like I'm in a lot of pain. This show 578 00:42:52,119 --> 00:42:57,719 is absolutely terrible and it's just making my headache worse at this point. Yeah. 579 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,119 So, but yeah, that was I have to say that would probably 580 00:43:00,199 --> 00:43:04,719 be the one of the one of the worst, if not the absolute worst 581 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,960 show I've ever seen in my life. And I've been to hundreds of shows. 582 00:43:07,039 --> 00:43:09,119 Yeah, I think that one has to take the cake. It's the 583 00:43:09,159 --> 00:43:13,360 worst show I've ever been to. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Now do 584 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,320 you guys have a favorite in terms of shows that you've played? Is there 585 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,800 one that uh maybe the Metal Church show. I don't know, is the 586 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:22,039 Metal Church is definitely high up there. But I think when we played with 587 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:24,159 yeah, Corn and Stained, I think is definitely the one that when we 588 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,800 played at the Bank of Hampship of Going Back in twenty twenty one, we 589 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,920 opened for Corn and Stain on the on the hazy little stage. Wow, 590 00:43:30,079 --> 00:43:37,039 and that one was wild. It was I mean, so it was it 591 00:43:37,199 --> 00:43:40,800 was very hot outside. Oh wait, no that oh it was raining. 592 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,880 I'm sorry, I'm confused in the other one from twenty nineteen, but yeah, 593 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,519 it was rainy. It was cold because this was in the beginning of 594 00:43:46,559 --> 00:43:52,360 October because they had to John did they've got COVID? Oh okay, but 595 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:57,119 yeah it was cold and rainy. We played great the first set and then 596 00:43:57,679 --> 00:44:01,119 back before they have all the new stuff at the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion. 597 00:44:01,159 --> 00:44:04,880 They had to change up because there was a lot of noise complaints coming 598 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,159 in, so the local artists would play a second set after the main show. 599 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,880 People were walking out. Yeah, and they didn't walk out, they 600 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:14,519 just stayed and they were on They were jumped up on stage as we were 601 00:44:14,599 --> 00:44:17,000 playing. Yeah, the security had to start pulling people, like they pulled 602 00:44:17,039 --> 00:44:22,039 sec They pulled security from the main stage to our stage because we had people 603 00:44:22,079 --> 00:44:24,960 who were like rushing on our stage, like like jumping off the stage and 604 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,400 stuff like that. Like security actually had to pull them off. It was 605 00:44:29,679 --> 00:44:32,280 very wild. It was probably one of the most liveliest crowds, if not 606 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:37,000 the liveliest crowd we've ever played too. But it was just so great. 607 00:44:37,079 --> 00:44:38,559 Oh, Wow, that was the energy. We tried to strive for it 608 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,239 at our shows. It was so perfect. Is there any video of that? 609 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,320 Do you have any? We had the video from like more of the 610 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,800 front of the stage where like the like the mosh pit going on. There's 611 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:52,039 like guys shirts fifty degrees and raining out. These guys are shirt let's do 612 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,400 like a mosh pit stuff. That's what. Yeah, in the background, 613 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,840 and you can see probably a little bit more briant than me. Yeah, 614 00:45:00,199 --> 00:45:02,079 but I remember like looking back going to finish. If you guys you don't 615 00:45:02,159 --> 00:45:06,000 hit my amplifier? Yeah, really, yeah, no, And this is 616 00:45:06,039 --> 00:45:07,840 what I mean. It's just like it's like I'm looking at him like this 617 00:45:08,039 --> 00:45:12,599 is great, but I think we should probably get this guy off of it. 618 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,360 So I'm it's funny because it's like it's a pleasant excitement, but obviously 619 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:22,159 history history of aliability and huge Yeah, yeah, no doubt, no doubt. 620 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:29,079 Wow. Now, so what is the songs that were playing today? 621 00:45:29,119 --> 00:45:31,519 We played the murder song and we're gonna We're gonna close it in a few 622 00:45:31,559 --> 00:45:35,719 minutes with the other one that I absolutely love. But are these on are 623 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:37,719 these part of an album that? Yeah, I've been second album, Vindicated 624 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,559 Vindicated. Okay, when did that come out? So we released that back 625 00:45:40,679 --> 00:45:45,000 in July twenty ninth of twenty twenty two. That was that was that we 626 00:45:45,119 --> 00:45:51,199 actually took advantage of the pandemic and we still got together. We took it. 627 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:52,880 We took the time when we weren't playing, We wrote the album, 628 00:45:53,039 --> 00:45:58,119 we recorded it, and that was when we ended up releasing it. So 629 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,280 we stayed productive during that whole time. Okay. Oh by the way, 630 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,719 Bruce from Legion of Solid says, I remember that show. I was in 631 00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:10,679 your mash he was there. Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, that's very 632 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:16,639 cool, very cool. Are you working on new materials? We're debuting a 633 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:21,079 brand new song from the next album. Well, two new songs. Well, 634 00:46:21,079 --> 00:46:23,320 we've play We played one of the new songs that we had at porch 635 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:29,400 Fest in Rochester last year two year ago. Okay, so we haven't like 636 00:46:29,519 --> 00:46:30,840 actually put it on an album. But yeah, we have a brand new 637 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:36,840 song that we have never played live before that we are debuting next Thursday at 638 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,280 the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion. So if you guys are Thursday right next 639 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:43,360 well, I mean we're still in the current week, so I sailed next 640 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,760 Thursday. One Sunday comes around, then I say this, so, yeah, 641 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:52,320 next Thursday we'll be debuting a I don't forget the words. It's always 642 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,119 an interesting take, Like the first time singing a song, I sing and 643 00:46:55,199 --> 00:46:59,360 play at the same time. Yeah, it's always a matter of like walking 644 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:00,760 in chewing gum at the same time. You know, I'm playing and keeping 645 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:05,519 track of everything all together. And why does that ever happen live where you 646 00:47:05,559 --> 00:47:07,920 forget the words on occasion? Yeah, yeah, as long as I mean. 647 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,039 So my thing I've ban practiced and it drives fine, No, it's 648 00:47:12,039 --> 00:47:14,719 actually driving my wife not to find it. So I do a lot of 649 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:22,000 one ons when I can't remember when. Yeah, and I'll do an entire 650 00:47:22,199 --> 00:47:24,920 song yeah yeah. And if you can imagine hearing you have six minute song 651 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:29,280 with that wan is going through it and that's all right, that's how you're 652 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,159 You're scattered. And with that, I mean, I mean, this is 653 00:47:32,199 --> 00:47:35,159 why I always look at the drummer. I'm like, I hope you've got 654 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,480 enough sticks so you can huck one at it. Right. There's been a 655 00:47:37,519 --> 00:47:42,639 lot of projectiles. It's quite quite hilarious, but I've never done a wan 656 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,880 on not at a show. I've always okay, if anything, I would 657 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:47,639 just like repeat a vose or something. You know, I can I'm not 658 00:47:47,679 --> 00:47:51,039 even doing this long enough. I can kind of catch myself. I know 659 00:47:51,119 --> 00:47:53,519 when I've messed up, but uh, you know I've recovered pretty quick. 660 00:47:53,679 --> 00:47:59,119 Yeah, say when playing guitary, it's like you learned to recover pretty quick. 661 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,840 Yeah. And this is where like I try to stay focused on my 662 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,440 playing as far as like, because like if I'm looking out next thing, 663 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,639 you know, I'm spacing out and I'm hitting the wrong note, I'm like, 664 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:09,000 oh wait a minute, i gotta recenter myself. So this is why 665 00:48:09,079 --> 00:48:12,920 every time I'm playing, I'm literally looking at my finger so I don't get 666 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,400 lost. Become the lead singer and you'll never space out, trust me. 667 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:20,199 There's too many things going on. You got a lot to keep track of. 668 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:23,119 Oh yeah, absolutely, you know it's we Also, the one song 669 00:48:23,159 --> 00:48:25,920 would be one of our cover songs, actually one of the few songs I 670 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,039 can sing and actually play guitar soul at the same time. What what what 671 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,920 song? What do you uh? Megadeth? Oh? Nice, Well, 672 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,960 I mean I take the most of the lead vocals on that one, so 673 00:48:37,119 --> 00:48:40,719 okay, but yeah, we're we're gonna try to do that when we've done 674 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:45,360 that one before live, but it's been a while, so we'll be playing 675 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:49,519 that one again live as well. But that's it's funny because, like I 676 00:48:49,679 --> 00:48:52,760 know, Anthony does a lot of like he does all the original vocals and 677 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,760 stuff like that. But obviously, like if we're playing multiple shows in a 678 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,480 row, there's gonna be a lot of vocal exhaustion. Yeah, I've been 679 00:48:59,519 --> 00:49:01,639 able to step up to the plate. It helps, It gives my throat 680 00:49:01,639 --> 00:49:07,039 a little bit of a break. Lives when you're playing sixty minutes ninety minutes. 681 00:49:07,039 --> 00:49:10,519 Yeah, you know, we don't sing laid back just like at all. 682 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:15,159 Yeah, I would. I would say as far as our as our 683 00:49:15,199 --> 00:49:17,519 repertoire goes, Like I know, Anthony sings all of the originals, I 684 00:49:17,559 --> 00:49:21,840 would say I probably sing like maybe ninety five percent of the covers. Okay, 685 00:49:22,159 --> 00:49:25,159 just it just it helps give him a break, and because I know 686 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:30,480 how the stuff goes. Yeah, fun it last. Yeah, and I 687 00:49:30,559 --> 00:49:35,079 mean obviously me a little biased because it has one of the most iconic bass 688 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,639 openings ever rewarded. Yes, and I get to start the song with that 689 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:42,800 one so oh, that's really cool. And it's timeless, you know, 690 00:49:43,039 --> 00:49:47,400 of course the song is just timeless. What should people know? We're gonna 691 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:51,280 we're gonna play this other track in a moment when we when we wrap up, 692 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,239 the time goes quickly.

Okay, okay, excellent, and before 706 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,239 we play this, Hell on the Horizon. And by the way, like 707 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:55,199 I said, I love this song, but just just quickly give us the 708 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:59,000 backstory for people who are just joining us, give us a backstory one more 709 00:50:59,039 --> 00:51:02,239 time on this. I saw it, started writing it prior to Brian entering 710 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:07,320 in the band. I knew, uh. The original title was from Triumph 711 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:13,360 to Tragedy. It was about someone trying to come from another country to America 712 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,719 to get a better life. And I kind of twist things up. They 713 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:21,000 see the Statue of Liberty and their boats things for whatever reason and they round. 714 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,280 Yeah. So like you're getting so close, but then you know Hell's 715 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,880 on the horizon, you just don't know where yet. Yeah, And unfortunately 716 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:30,599 became like symbolic for Matt Harrisk that Hell was on the horizon. We just 717 00:51:30,679 --> 00:51:35,280 didn't know we had cancer either. Yeah. And that was the first song 718 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:38,599 Brian ever contributed, you know. I showed him that the little bridge section 719 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:42,320 and he's like, well, I made this can I fitted in and we 720 00:51:42,599 --> 00:51:45,960 ended up fitting it and he started you know, that was like the first 721 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:49,719 four a into him, you know, contributing to to purgein Sin. Yes, 722 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:53,840 so it's the first song I was actually featured on is and so the 723 00:51:54,079 --> 00:51:57,639 the clean part of the little basin the loud. It was something I was 724 00:51:57,679 --> 00:52:00,519 just messing around with. I thought it was kind of neat and we were 725 00:52:00,519 --> 00:52:04,800 able to work it in and then obviously too, as we mentioned previously in 726 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,199 the show, it's the last song that Matt Harris actually ever recorded with us 727 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:13,199 before he passed away. The It's funny because like I was trying to suggest 728 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:15,760 a little bit more of a shorter kind of title for the whole thing. 729 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:19,400 I was just like, because we're going along with the theme, I was 730 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,960 just like, well, why don't we just say something like Hell's Hell's on 731 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,079 the horizon or something like that, And then that eventually became the title of 732 00:52:24,159 --> 00:52:28,320 the song. So and it actually was a little bit more of a catcher 733 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,760 thing. We actually recorded that song as a single with a friend of mine 734 00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:36,480 from college who runs his own independent studio, I don't know if it still 735 00:52:36,519 --> 00:52:40,920 exists, Audio Pond Studios in Francis Down and he recorded it for us as 736 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:45,039 a favor, and that was kind of like the first single to actually come 737 00:52:45,119 --> 00:52:50,599 off of Vindicated before the Murder became the other single that we released oh okay, 738 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,159 okay, very good.
