he's very enthusiastic, shall we say,

19

that's right. And the other times he'll

23
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:12,360
Well, it's been a long time
since you've been here. Well, I

24
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,080
mean it's been a long time,
says been out of the show. I

25
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,120
mean not since you've been here.
I'm well, yes, the couch is

26
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,400
now the couch isn't going right,
that's we're leaving that behind finally. Well,

27
00:02:23,199 --> 00:02:24,840
I'm not sure, didn't I I
think I promised is is somebody?

28
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,319
Well I seem to propose it's going
to be a wedding present for Kadie and

29
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:35,080
Tom. Well, well, perfect. I don't know if you remember this,

30
00:02:35,159 --> 00:02:38,479
but this was years ago actually now
by the time gets away from us.

31
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,800
But you were on my show one
day and we were trying to auction

32
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,319
off the couch or sell the couch
or something and uh no, no no

33
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,680
takers that day. Well, Mike
Doyle was gonna try to get us a

34
00:02:47,719 --> 00:02:52,120
couch and then he says, they've
got a couch for you, and he

35
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,400
said it was floral like very you
know, and I didn't want that.

36
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,360
I didn't want that. Yeah,
Um, it's just I don't know.

37
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,639
It's so it was. We was
a nay on that couch and we had

38
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,479
to keep this. But it is
the legendary coach. Oh yeah, you

39
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,400
ever look at it with a black
light? Yeah, I've heard of that.

40
00:03:08,479 --> 00:03:10,639
I heard of that. I have
none. Okay, I was going

41
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,080
to say, you're a braver man
than I. Yeah, I mean I

42
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,280
wouldn't want to look. It's not
really good to look. You know what's

43
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:19,120
funny about a black light? And
I'll tell you a black light story of

44
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:23,319
mine yea In Manchester in nineteen ninety
ninety two, there was a dance club

45
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:28,000
called Decadence and it was over here
where the training station is on Elm Street.

46
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,560
It was a dance club and before
that it was many other clubs and

47
00:03:30,719 --> 00:03:36,439
blah blah, blah. But back
in the nineties when acid washy, kind

48
00:03:36,479 --> 00:03:40,879
of weird jeans were still around,
if you use tide detergent, like I

49
00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:46,400
think it was tied. And then
on those jeans and you went under a

50
00:03:46,439 --> 00:03:50,879
black light, there were spot splotches
everywhere. Really, yeah, it was

51
00:03:50,919 --> 00:03:57,199
a splotchy, splotchy jeans. If
you use tied you could only see it

52
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,560
under the black light. But yeah, I think this thing it's fine.

53
00:04:00,639 --> 00:04:03,919
I mean a lot of people have
sat here. It's it's good for someone

54
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,759
or what are you about, six
ten? It's good for a tall person

55
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:12,680
like you, yes, but for
for for shorter people like DJ Steve for

56
00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:15,599
example, right, you know hang, yeah, yeah, he looks like

57
00:04:15,079 --> 00:04:18,279
you know, he looks like Emmanuel
Lewis over there on the couch. Whatever

58
00:04:18,319 --> 00:04:20,399
happened to Webster? He's still with
us, right, I think so?

59
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,839
Gary Coleman died, right, yes, but Webster is still with us,

60
00:04:24,879 --> 00:04:28,120
I believe, no doubt. Yes, yes, not doing too much though.

61
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,199
No, Well, he's got that
uh what's the name of the Oh,

62
00:04:30,199 --> 00:04:33,160
it's just called Webster, right,
he's got that Webster money. Well,

63
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,639
you never know, you never know
what kind of contract he had,

64
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:41,959
that's right, um, you've got
a big you've got big doings. You

65
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,279
are a celebrity restaurant tour. I
can't even say that, I really,

66
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,319
honestly, I say guest. I
say a guest restaurant tour because I don't.

67
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,720
I don't feel like that anyway.
But it is. It is a

68
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:56,000
great thing, and it had a
chance to do it, and you know

69
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,160
it goes to uh, you know, ten percent of the proceeds off the

70
00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:03,839
you know, my personal menu.
We'll go to the Hope and h Matt's

71
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:10,600
organization helping kids right here in Manchester. Yeah, so Morning show Jesus it

72
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,920
is. Yeah, Morning Show Jesus. Verily is very envious of his hair.

73
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,160
That dude's got the hair. I'm
the guy that says he's not gonna

74
00:05:17,199 --> 00:05:21,279
have that forever's not gonna have that. I can't wait. I'm just gonna

75
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,240
be a time. Let's let's let's
talking ten years. Yeah, let's talking

76
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,720
ten years. I'll see him ten
years something. He's gonna have to do

77
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,480
something. Oh ten years. By
by the time we get ten years from

78
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,360
now, they'll have a pillow you
just take and it just it just grows

79
00:05:35,399 --> 00:05:39,439
all your hair out. They're actually
close to that now apparently. Really,

80
00:05:39,519 --> 00:05:42,240
I think that's good, But then
you get it just does it just go

81
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,000
up there? And does it go
everywhere? It goes everywhere? And uh

82
00:05:46,079 --> 00:05:48,480
yeah, yeah, it's just Harry
and your your heart enlarges. So there

83
00:05:48,519 --> 00:05:51,680
are side effects apparently. Yeah,
but Mike, you don't do that.

84
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:56,879
Yeah, I don't do that,
Mikey. I'm gonna I have now right

85
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,560
there. You know, I remember
when you did have some some sweet hair

86
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,959
in high school. Yes, yeah, good looking kid. He was in

87
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,199
high school. Always with, always
with, always with the lady. Oh,

88
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,279
I believe that, true. I
believe many pictures I like when you

89
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,959
share those. Yes. Yeah,
So we're going to well I'm going there

90
00:06:13,959 --> 00:06:15,720
in just a little while. It's
gonna be a good time. We have

91
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,839
Bob Freedis's squad dogs on the menu
and squad dogs around here. You know

92
00:06:20,879 --> 00:06:24,920
we're not going to be and I
repeat if anyone was worried, we aren't

93
00:06:24,959 --> 00:06:29,480
going to be putting any uh squad
dogs in belly buttons or anything like that.

94
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,560
That was just a one time thing
that time. Well, what if

95
00:06:31,639 --> 00:06:34,600
Ron shows up and he decides to
put it in his own belly button?

96
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,600
How are you gonna are you gonna
be able to stop him? Is there

97
00:06:36,639 --> 00:06:40,639
security there? Matt. There's a
time to do things, and then that's

98
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:45,720
the time time not to do things. I feel like during those two hours

99
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,399
every morning, I think I feel
like, okay, I could pretty much

100
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,519
do anything right, right, those
those two hours are the time to do

101
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,959
things that you wouldn't necessarily doing in
the evening at an important event to raise

102
00:06:56,079 --> 00:06:58,360
I think I had went out to
dinner that night and someone says, oh,

103
00:06:58,399 --> 00:07:00,279
how was your day? And he
said, well, you know I

104
00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:05,720
penetrated at three people with squaw dogs
on the show. Well I didn't actually

105
00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:10,720
penetrate them, but a squaw dogs
penetrated the belly button. Yes, yes,

106
00:07:11,079 --> 00:07:14,160
I'm surprised you were able to eat
that day. Yeah, Frank's no

107
00:07:14,279 --> 00:07:20,199
food and there's no eating in here, right right, So I've heard so

108
00:07:20,759 --> 00:07:25,560
Now, so you mentioned your your
menu, So did you How does that

109
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,199
work? Do you get to pick
certain things that you want for that menu

110
00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:31,480
or well? I kind of described
it like a you know, say,

111
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:36,519
someone in a celebrity that's going on
Saturday Night Live for the week, right,

112
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:41,519
Okay, so they're with the cast
all week. In the writing process,

113
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,920
the practicing process and all that.
So yeah, I've been down there

114
00:07:44,959 --> 00:07:48,240
all week with this. We've been
going crazy trying to get all this going.

115
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,000
But it looks like it's ready to
go, and it's ready to go

116
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,360
right now. Excellent, excellent.
We have a call. Hi. Welcome

117
00:07:55,399 --> 00:07:59,240
to Matt Connerton unleashed. Who is

menu tonight? Mike, you pull up

121
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,240
the menu, could you please them? Sorry? Sorry, well you don't,

122
00:08:15,399 --> 00:08:18,079
Peter. You don't strike me as
a fish or vegetarian option. I

123
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,920
have to think of people like Scott
true very you know a guy that cares

124
00:08:20,959 --> 00:08:26,720
about that kind of thing. Ye, yes, scarlet, Scott, is

125
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,680
this for you? Are you sure? My my wife is a vegetarian?

126
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,639
Now? What is the little green? Right? Is there? There's no?

127
00:08:33,759 --> 00:08:37,720
Is there any when we get to
a cheese, Yeah, there's there's

128
00:08:37,759 --> 00:08:41,960
something. The little green I think
is the uh the maybe of the uh.

129
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:45,000
Yeah. Just tell her to eat
that. The little green, Yeah,

130
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,519
tell her has avocado. It has
avocado on it and some ah.

131
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:54,720
Yeah. Um, the Little Green
has flat has pesto, Peter Grigio,

132
00:08:54,039 --> 00:09:00,799
swiced avocado, palmjan cheese, Fats
Montroo, and silantro. Yeah so you

133
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,639
and you could probably ask, you
know, for no cheese if you didn't

134
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,080
want to go the cheese route.
Because somebody got a vegan. Well,

135
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,919
I don't know. I don't know
what religion she is, and I assume

episode of The Brady Bunch when Peter Brady

144
00:09:37,799 --> 00:09:41,639
is waiting for people to come to
his party and then and then he runs

145
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,480
down the stairs, no one's there, and then the cars just keep driving

146
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:50,960
by. He goes to the door
and opens the door and surprised, Yeah,

147
00:09:52,039 --> 00:09:54,320
yeah, they did surprise him.
But it was his family that found

148
00:09:54,360 --> 00:10:00,000
bad for him. So that's fine, right, that's fine. But yeah,

149
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:01,679
Scott, thank you. Scot's an

something up, and I'm coming out and

180
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,080

00:11:56,519 --> 00:12:01,480
Scott goes, careful where where your
walking because right up the street at the

182
00:12:01,519 --> 00:12:05,000
bookery. You know, they had
the proud boys there on their masks trying

183
00:12:05,039 --> 00:12:09,440
to trying to freak everybody out because
they know how you should raise your kids

184
00:12:09,799 --> 00:12:13,000
wear a mask first of all.
I mean, aren't they the people that

185
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:18,159
said don't wear masks? Yes,
yes, but but they wear masks and

186
00:12:18,799 --> 00:12:22,279
yeah, there's just out there exercising
their first amendment. But yes, I

187
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,120
told Scott, I said, no, I'm gonna go down the alley.

188
00:12:26,159 --> 00:12:28,360
I don't. I don't need to
be anyone mask the person and it's Scott

189
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:33,759
Robinson, I'd be so weird.
Yeah, that's why I wore a mask.

190
00:12:33,799 --> 00:12:35,279
I don't want anyone to know what
was mean. And then he'd be

191
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,519
like, I would have gotten away
with it if it wasn't for you pesky

192
00:12:37,639 --> 00:12:43,080
kids. Yes, oh boy?
So now how many how many items are

193
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:48,759
on the your your menu? And
is it like a I assume you're exaggerating,

194
00:12:48,879 --> 00:12:50,720
yes, And is it like a
separate menu like they give you here?

195
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,360
Serious? Oh cool? Yeah,
they'll be it's a special menu tonight.

196
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,440

00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:01,320

met him, knew who he was, and hey, Jeff, you know,

266
00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:33,759
and then uh, during COVID when
everyone was sitting at home, you

267
00:17:33,799 --> 00:17:37,960
know, his kids were probably driving
him crazy, but he says, hey,

week. Oh oh good. Well

298
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,119
that's a lot of it's it's a
lot of work I did. It took

299
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,359
me all week to make this,
uh this mix? Yes, and uh

300
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,200
it's like five hours. You know, it's even longer than the actual event.

301
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,400
See. I think that's smart because
what if the event runs really like

302
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,960
every few nights, every night?
Like whatever I was doing, whether preparing

303
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,200
for the show or whatever. I
would listen to music if I heard something

304
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,720
boom. Yeah. So yeah,
it took me. It took me about

305
00:19:52,759 --> 00:19:55,000
a week because if you get to
if you get to nine o'clock, you

306
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,279
don't want to be like and there's
still people there. You don't want to

307
00:19:56,319 --> 00:19:59,440
be like, oh sorry, everybody, you have to hear the same songs

308
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:00,960
again. Sorry, it's good to
make it longer, right, So,

309
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:07,680
so they're just gonna play do they
have a so what they just play over

310
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,039
their sound system? You're a playlist? Yeah? Yeah, oh yeah they

311
00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:14,160

anything, you know, I don't know

312
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:18,680

315
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,559

316
00:20:29,599 --> 00:20:30,880

00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:44,400
goes right there before it turns into
the salt and pepper and stuff. Maybe

maybe I'll think about it, right
Yeah, Actually, that's what's the irony

434
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,039
is mine. And sometimes in some
pictures, because it's it's gotten so gray

435
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:56,440
right in the middle, it looks
like I didn't see I didn't see those.

I've never seen. Have you ever seen

519
00:37:15,039 --> 00:37:19,559
that, Mikey, I have not. I've I remember back when I used

520
00:37:19,599 --> 00:37:22,920
to work at the at the store
there, I would see the DVD in

521
00:37:23,039 --> 00:37:27,079
the in the bin, but I've
never watched it. But one thing about

522
00:37:27,159 --> 00:37:30,480
Eric's reviews always makes me want to
want to watch whatever he's reviewing. If

523
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,639
you'd like to get in with a
quick call before we go to that,

524
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:37,320

532
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:05,599
do so that we can hear and
enjoy your dulcet tones is to give us

533
00:38:05,639 --> 00:38:08,800
a call at six three two five
h six zero seven. I do want

534
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:13,719
to remind you it is Friday and
Fridays as we were talking with Peter White

535
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,480
when he was here a few minutes
ago, and it was great to have

536
00:38:15,599 --> 00:38:20,320
him here. You know, It's
it's rare that, uh that we get

537
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,280
to do that, we get to
have him on the show. You know,

538
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:23,800
he's he's he's here in the morning, he's the morning guy, and

539
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,639
he's usually gone by the time I
get here. But uh, you know,

540
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,760
every it's it's it's always this thing, Mikey every uh. On those

541
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:32,440
rare occasions when I walk in and
Peter's still here, it's like, oh,

542
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,480
I wonder if I can talk him
into stay in. Yeah, I

543
00:38:35,519 --> 00:38:37,760
always try to get him to stay
because it's it's fun and I know the

544
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:42,960
listeners really love hearing us together.
So hopefully, hopefully we can do that

545
00:38:43,039 --> 00:38:45,480
more often. It seems like we
used to do that more, but um

546
00:38:45,199 --> 00:38:49,599
uh lately I don't run into him
nearly as much. So anyway, that

547
00:38:49,679 --> 00:38:52,719
was a lot of fun. Of
course, the giant cardboard Peter whitehead is

548
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,840
always in the corner. But we
do, we do love the actual Peter

549
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,119
White. So that was a lot
of fun to have him here. But

550
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,360
uh yeah, Friday is very busy
in our little corner of the world here,

551
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:05,400
of course, here at WMNH,
we're on until six pm and then

552
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,000
you have granted State of Mind hosted
by the Great Rob as a Veto and

553
00:39:08,199 --> 00:39:13,360
Paully Stone. And then I am
back, of course eight to eleven pm

554
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,480
for Retro Spectrum Radio with Paul ec. I have the honor and privilege of

555
00:39:16,519 --> 00:39:21,360
being one of Paul's co hosts on
that show along with DJ Steve, and

556
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:28,679
hopefully we'll see what happens. Hopefully
our friend Mike from Queen City Cabinetry will

557
00:39:28,679 --> 00:39:31,400
be back this week as well.
I have not heard an official word on

558
00:39:31,559 --> 00:39:36,440
that, but you hear anything on
that, Mikey, You've always got your

559
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,119
ear to the ground. You always
you always seem to. Oh, you

560
00:39:39,199 --> 00:39:42,840
know, I don't know if I
don't know if I know the theme.

561
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,960
Jenny was asking me earlier the theme, and I'm not sure if Paul he

562
00:39:47,199 --> 00:39:51,440
might have told me, and I
just don't remember. Oh here we go,

563
00:39:51,639 --> 00:39:54,639
Yes, yes, that's right,
I'd forgotten. But yeah, so

564
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:59,280
this is the theme for to night's
retro Spectrum Radio. Fifty years ago,

565
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:05,280
in nineteen seventy three, the first
bick lighter was sold, promising three thousand

566
00:40:05,639 --> 00:40:10,159
flicks per bick. This Friday Night
on Retrospectrum Radio will be celebrating Bicks fiftieth

567
00:40:10,599 --> 00:40:16,159
by featuring the music that was very
closely associated with bick lighters eighties and nineties

568
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:21,079
power ballads. That's right, the
power ballads. Yes, yes, if

569
00:40:21,159 --> 00:40:24,480
you want to, if you want
to any given rock concert, oh,

570
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:28,280
I'm sorry. If you went to
any given rock concert during this era,

571
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,119
a bick lighter was essential. Of
course, Now everyone just holds up their

572
00:40:31,119 --> 00:40:36,559
cell phones with a flashlight. Yeah, whether it was Home Sweet Home,

573
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,199
or Heaven or Faithfully, or if
Tesla was just singing a love song,

574
00:40:40,639 --> 00:40:47,000
your bick lighter was raised, waving
back and forth and going out along with

575
00:40:47,159 --> 00:40:52,480
fifteen thousand others. A light up
your Friday night with us. The fund

576
00:40:52,519 --> 00:40:55,360
starts at apm Eastern. Of course, you can listen to WMH radio dot

00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,760
for that event. And there will
be some some of the Morning Show crew

593
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:05,159
there as well. And I'll probably
walk down between shows and just I won't

594
00:42:05,159 --> 00:42:07,559
be able to stay long, but
I'll kind of poke my head in see

595
00:42:07,599 --> 00:42:09,599
what's doing. And Texas Mike,
you're gonna be down there too. Yep,

596
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,360
yeah, probably gonna head down way. Half the show very good,

597
00:42:13,599 --> 00:42:19,239
very good. So lots going on. But let's get to Eric's classic film

598
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,199
review and then we have a musical. Guess Andrew packwe is here. She's

599
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:27,159
gonna be joining us after that and
looking forward to that. But here it

600
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:35,199
is. This is Eric's classic film
review of Escape from New York, New

601
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:40,800
York, nineteen ninety seven. The
entire city is a walled maximum security prisoner,

602
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:52,599
the breaches of mine, the river's
a patrolled and the United States Police

603
00:42:52,639 --> 00:43:07,119
Force has everything under control. I'm
going in, John Commenters, Escaped from

604
00:43:07,159 --> 00:43:12,760
New York, The high adventure of
the future. One man must go in

605
00:43:13,159 --> 00:43:21,199
where no man has ever gotten out. John Commenters, Escaped from New York,

606
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,639
The greatest escape of them all is
about to blow the future apart.

607
00:43:30,039 --> 00:43:36,559
For us in twenty twenty three,
to view nineteen ninety seven as a post

608
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:44,800
apocalyptic wasteland is quite absurd. However, in the seventies and eighties, films

609
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:52,599
that took place in the future showed
this ruined society where crime and scoundrels ruled

610
00:43:52,079 --> 00:43:59,039
destitute areas. This week's film does
this and brought us one of the most

611
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:07,599
underrated action heroes or anti heroes,
depending on your view in cinema history.

612
00:44:07,679 --> 00:44:15,880
Released in nineteen eighty one and directed
by horror slash action film maestro John Carpenter,

613
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:22,719
Escape from New York introduces us to
criminal Snake Pliskin played by Kurt Russell,

614
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:28,880
a prisoner that receives an offer to
have his record washed away by police

615
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:36,559
Commissioner Ouk Western film veteran leaving Cleef. The task is a suicide mission to

616
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,800
go into the secured state of New
York to rescue the kidnapped President of the

617
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:47,599
United States from a group a violent
anti government insurgents and a tape the president

618
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:54,880
has that can bring world peace.
The catches Snake only has twenty four hours

619
00:44:55,000 --> 00:45:01,480
to do it or he dies.
Our reduction was the trailer that sets the

620
00:45:01,679 --> 00:45:07,320
stage for this film. Our next
clip is How in Snake meeting for the

621
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:14,840
first time, when How gives Snake
his proposal, even though we have no

622
00:45:15,199 --> 00:45:20,239
evidence to lead us to this assumption. As viewers, the roles are clearly

623
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:28,480
defined in this interaction. Snake is
the ultra cool anti hero and How is

624
00:45:28,559 --> 00:45:35,239
this utolitarian man a law that just
has this sneaky and swarmy vibe to him.

625
00:45:36,159 --> 00:45:46,800
This is essentially because of the brilliant
performance of Van Cleave. All right,

626
00:45:47,320 --> 00:46:02,079
he's dangerous, sir, I know
I'll be okay. I'm not a

627
00:46:02,159 --> 00:46:15,360
full Blisken. Call me Snake sd

633
00:46:52,639 --> 00:46:57,559
a deal for you? He received
full pardon for every criminal action who committed

634
00:46:57,559 --> 00:47:01,400
in the United States. Was an
accident about an hour ago. Small jet

635
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:07,320
went down inside New York City.
The President was on board. President of

636
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:12,920
one. That's not funny. Please
can you go in find the President bring

637
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,880
him out in twenty four hours and
you're a freeman twenty four hours. I'm

638
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:19,920
making you an offer straight, just
like I said, I'll think about it

639
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:23,360
no time. Give me an answer, get a new president. We're still

640
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:27,880
at war a pliskin. We need
him alive. I don't give out your

641
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:32,760
war or your president. Is that
your answer? I'm thinking about it.

642
00:47:34,039 --> 00:47:45,000
Think hard. Why mean you flew
the Gulf fire over Lennon Grid? You

643
00:47:45,119 --> 00:47:50,480
know how to get in quiet?
You're all up, gun. I guess

644
00:47:50,519 --> 00:47:52,840
I go in one way or the
other. You give me the paper when

645
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:59,760
you come in before I told you
it wasn't a fool. Call me Snake.

646
00:48:01,599 --> 00:48:08,519
No action film would be complete without
sidekicks, and this film delivers those

647
00:48:09,079 --> 00:48:15,840
in every way. First you have
Brain played by the late Harry Dean Stanton,

648
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:23,800
a man that betrade Snake in his
past. Brain's assistant Maggie played by

649
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:31,239
Adrian Barbow, and the lovable Cabby
comedy legend Ernest Borgnine. Our next two

650
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:37,679
clips are the introduction two Snake sidekicks. First we meet Cabby. What is

651
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:45,880
great about him is he is so
upbeat and jovial despite society crumbled around him

652
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:52,239
in everything being in disarray. And
then Cabby takes Snake to Brain and Maggie.

653
00:48:53,039 --> 00:48:59,639
What is great is how Snake just
remains calm and cool despite wanting to

654
00:49:00,079 --> 00:49:57,639
end Brain's life. For his past
betrayal. A you're going, buddy,

655
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:08,760
that neighborhood snake. You don't want
to be walking from the Barer to forty

656
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:13,000
second Street at night. I've been
driving a cabin for thirty years, and

657
00:50:13,039 --> 00:50:16,360
I'm telling you you don't walk around
here at night. Yes, hit a

658
00:50:16,599 --> 00:50:21,440
killon strip you in ten seconds.
Plant. Usually I'm not done around him

659
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,880
myself, but I wanted to catch
that show. This stuff is like gold

660
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:35,760
around here. You know, Hey, snake, when'd you get in?

661
00:50:36,079 --> 00:50:39,679
I didn't even know they caught you. Oh, snake, blitz, get

662
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:45,440
at my cab? You way to
like tell any Hey, hang on,

663
00:50:45,559 --> 00:50:58,599
snake, Hey what were you doing
back there? Snake? Looking for somebody?

664
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:00,440
Well? What didn't you ask me? Hell? I know everybody in

665
00:51:00,519 --> 00:51:04,960
this town. Yes, Sarah,
I've been driving his cap for thirty years,

666
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:09,159
this very same cap. I'm gonna
ask you, now, where's the

667
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:14,480
president? The Duke got him?
Everybody knows that Duke's got him. Or

668
00:51:14,559 --> 00:51:16,000
you don't have to put a gun
to my head. I'll tell you who's

669
00:51:16,039 --> 00:51:20,559
the duke. The Duke, the
Duke of New York, A number one,

670
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:28,039
the big man. That's who I
want to meet, This Duke you

671
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,719
can't meet the duke, are you
crazy? Nobody gets to meet the Duke.

672
00:51:31,039 --> 00:51:40,119
You meet him once and then you're
dead. And now Snake meets Brain

673
00:51:40,519 --> 00:51:52,679
and Maggie. I brought somebody to
see it. Harold Hellman, Snake,

674
00:51:53,440 --> 00:52:00,559
Harold been Harold. It's a long
time. You never tell me you need

675
00:52:00,639 --> 00:52:04,079
Snake flisk and Brian's nuts. Great, Hey, pray not to do some

676
00:52:04,199 --> 00:52:13,239
guests. We can express him les. You remember me, yeah, man

677
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:16,960
should remember his past. Kansas City
four years ago. You ran out on

678
00:52:17,119 --> 00:52:22,639
me. You left me sitting there. You were late. We were buddy

679
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:27,960
there Ald You, me and Fresno
Bob. You know what they did to

680
00:52:28,079 --> 00:52:35,239
Bob. You want to see him
sprayed all over that map? Baby,

681
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,320
where's the president? I swear to
god, Snake, I don't know why

682
00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:42,239
you want to know. I want
him working for the man. Now.

683
00:52:42,679 --> 00:52:45,360
I'll just beat it out of your
squeeze. He doesn't know exactly where he

684
00:52:45,519 --> 00:52:49,920
is, and unless you know exactly
precisely where he is, you'll never find

685
00:52:50,039 --> 00:53:02,119
him. Listen, I'll take you
out of here. Yeah, Jed Glider,

686
00:53:02,199 --> 00:53:07,599
just a couple of blocks down the
street, and all you gotta do

687
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:12,400
is get me to him. No
kidding on the level. Hey, will

688
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:19,400
you take me too? We gotta
deal somewhere else. No glider, We've

689
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:22,599
got the President and the Duke's taking
everybody out of here. Never happened,

690
00:53:22,639 --> 00:53:29,559
baby, You see I know something
you and the Duke don't know. Oh

691
00:53:29,639 --> 00:53:32,480
my god, so long before.
Mister President doesn't mean a lot. You're

692
00:53:32,639 --> 00:53:38,400
lying. Maybe he's not. I'm
know him. Look at his face.

693
00:53:38,559 --> 00:53:44,679
He's lying, right, Harold,
I'm lying. So I might as well

694
00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:46,840
have some fun and keep looking by
myself. Rain. Talk to him,

695
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:57,679
baby, Rain, you'll kill us
both. You always were smart, Harold.

696
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:06,719
Just one thing right now, don't
call me Harold. So far in

697
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:14,639
this review, we have introduced the
hero Orienti hero his sidekicks, and although

698
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:21,280
we have heard him referenced previously,
we haven't talked about him. The villain,

699
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,519
the Duke, played by music legend
Isaac Hayes, is a man that

700
00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:32,800
oversees New York and has masterminded the
kidnapping of the President. He also wants

701
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:38,440
to get a diagram that brain has
drawn up that will secure the escape from

702
00:54:38,519 --> 00:54:44,440
this city, with the President being
used as a bartering chip. Our final

703
00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:50,519
clip for this week's episode shows what
makes him a villain. Here he calmly

704
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:57,760
and coldly shoots an assault weapon at
and around the President while the president is

705
00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:01,559
chained to the wall. All the
hear him recite that the Duke is a

706
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:47,159
one in runs New York. Don't
move snake, I want their dark round

707
00:55:47,199 --> 00:55:53,320
brain. Um, that's at my
place, Duke. But Duke that Pliskin

708
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:59,440
said something about a time limit for
time limit on him. There's a lot

709
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:07,440
of crap up. What did I
teach you? He do New New York.

710
00:56:07,519 --> 00:56:15,679
You're hey number one. I can't
hear you. You the Duke of

711
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:22,719
New York. You're a number one. Give me the diagram. Duke,

712
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:53,320
don't kill Pliskin. We need him. Get moving brain. Our previous John

713
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:59,920
Carpenter film, We Looked At Big
Trouble in Little China, became a cold

714
00:57:00,159 --> 00:57:07,119
classic. It wasn't successful upon release, but garnered love and appreciation as the

715
00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:12,360
years went on, and much like
many of his films, John Carpenter is

716
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:20,679
the quintessential independent filmmaker. He makes
films that he wants to make without constraints

717
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:24,199
of a major studio. For the
most part. Because of this, this

718
00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:30,480
film was made on only a budget
of six million dollars and was mainly financed

719
00:57:30,679 --> 00:57:38,000
off the success of Carpenter's horror classic
Halloween. It ended up breaking in twenty

720
00:57:38,079 --> 00:57:45,719
five million and spawned a sequel in
nineteen ninety six, Escape from la It

721
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:52,119
is very hard to put this film
into one specific genre. Is it noir?

722
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:55,960
Is it sci fi? Is it
action? Is it adventure? Is

723
00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:02,719
it drama? My answer is simple, who cares? It is a film

724
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:08,920
that meets aspects of so many genres
that it's unfair to pigeonhole it into just

725
00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:16,800
one. With great performances, stellar
action scenes in a vibrant, electronic based

726
00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:22,840
soundtrack composed by Carpenter himself, this
film is a great way for anyone to

727
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:29,519
spend one hundred minutes with a bowl
of popcorn, or to just escape from

728
00:58:29,639 --> 00:58:37,519
our world in view Carpenter's world and
his post apocalyptic vision. I hope you

729
00:58:37,639 --> 00:58:40,760
join me next week when we will
dive into one of my favorite genres of

730
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:51,880
film, film noir, with the
nineteen forty four noir crime thriller Double Indemnity

731
00:58:52,679 --> 00:58:58,000
for WMNH and Matt Connerton Unleashed.
This has been a classic film review with

732
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:30,280
Eric Pilcher very nice. Another great
job from our friend Rik Pilcher with a

733
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:35,440
classic film review of Escape from New
York. And we are live on Matt

734
00:59:35,599 --> 00:59:39,440
Connerton Unleashed on this beautiful Friday afternoon. Here from the studios of wm n

735
00:59:39,719 --> 00:59:46,880

00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:52,599
Texas, Mike, and we have
a wonderful musical guest with us here,

737
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:57,559
Andrea Paquin. I've learned how to
pronounce the last name correctly. How are

738
00:59:57,599 --> 01:00:00,079
you welcome? Thanks? How are
you very well? Very well? Uh

739
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:04,440

01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:14,280
if you were hurre you thinking of? Oh what are you thinking of?

756
01:01:17,639 --> 01:01:23,760
So much that was left behind?
Sometimes on my mind the view of the

757
01:01:24,079 --> 01:01:32,679
horizons, and I don't see an
end insight. I don't see an end

758
01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:44,440
insight. Would it be all right
to say I think our stars are aligne?

759
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:59,079
I'd be at sure of man.
Take if you were mine. I

760
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:05,159
know you've been down and out food, Open up your eyes and see that

761
01:02:05,599 --> 01:02:12,880
blue sky, and it will be
all that you ever need. It will

762
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:22,360
be all you never need. There
is nothing I wouldn't do to see that

763
01:02:22,679 --> 01:02:28,840
you with you. I know I've
been there too. But there's a whole

764
01:02:29,159 --> 01:02:35,320
living inside of me. There is
a hope right here inside of me.

765
01:02:38,159 --> 01:02:49,360
Would it be hard to say I
think our stars are aligne? I'd be

766
01:02:49,639 --> 01:03:00,320
a true O my tech. If
you were mine, I'd be a true

767
01:03:00,079 --> 01:03:12,920
mate. If you were mine,
there is a feeling I am longing for.

768

me now, shoulder to shoulder,

769
01:03:23,679 --> 01:03:53,199
just you and me, just you, oh, just healing me. Would

770
01:03:53,280 --> 01:04:02,920
it be hard to say? I
think our stars are a line. I'd

771
01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:15,159
be a true mate if you were
mine, I'd be a true mate.

772
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:29,760

01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:48,039
six two five six seven and um
now you mentioned those are gonna be on

922
01:26:48,119 --> 01:26:51,159
an upcoming album that you're recording.
Now, yes, yeah, Actually today

923
01:26:51,239 --> 01:26:55,439
was the first day that I went
into the studio. It's the Greenhouse Studio

924
01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:59,800
in Guildford, Okay, And so
I recorded uh my master guitar tracks and

925
01:27:00,199 --> 01:27:02,640
some scratch vocals for the production piece, and then I'll be finishing up the

926
01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:06,159
actual production in Portland, Maine at
a different studio. Oh Okay. Now

927
01:27:06,239 --> 01:27:14,399
why I'm always uh kind of a
geek for knowing about recording and why musicians

928
01:27:14,399 --> 01:27:17,000
approach it the way they do,
So why why at different studios doing different

929
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:20,399
parts of it. There's gonna be
some more musicians in the Portland area that

930
01:27:20,439 --> 01:27:24,239
are going to be able to join, and we're gonna waten to earlier on

931
01:27:24,279 --> 01:27:27,640
the break that I'm going to have
some pedal steel yeah on the record,

932
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:30,760
and I'm going to have this like
little old country feel to it. So

933
01:27:30,119 --> 01:27:33,079
yeah, and the Portland area is
a lot of musicians that are accessible in

934
01:27:33,199 --> 01:27:35,399
that actual studio. They have a
lot of connections. So We're gonna just

935
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:38,800
wrap it up there, I think, and I'm gonna do allment my master

936
01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:43,199
vocal tracks in Portland, Maine.
What's the studio in Portland. I think

937
01:27:43,239 --> 01:27:45,800
it's just the studio in Maine.
The studio in Portland. Oh that's what

938
01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,039
it's called. I'm pretty sure that's
what it's called. Oh wow, yeah,

939
01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:50,760
I think so, don't quote me
up. I'm not sure yet.

940
01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:54,880
That's cool. That's cool. Great
music scene in Portland. Oh it's awesome.

941
01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:57,640
Yeah. I always always been a
lot of very talented musicians there,

942
01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:00,840
so so that's gonna be uh yeah, you're also held me during the break

943
01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:02,920
too, so it's gonna be kind
of a different vibe than um than your

944
01:28:02,960 --> 01:28:06,560
previous Yeah, I work it'll be
it'll be a little similar, but it's

945
01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:11,000
gonna be more of that alternative country
feel, kind of like a like a

946
01:28:11,079 --> 01:28:14,920
like a Jayhawks type sound. Oh
cool. Yeah, so definitely, like,

947
01:28:15,079 --> 01:28:16,880
you know, just kind of incorporating
some new instruments just to just to

948
01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:20,399
change it up a little bit.
And um, I'm with uh. I

949
01:28:20,520 --> 01:28:25,359
worked with New Hampshire Music Collective.
They are a booking agency throughout New Hampshire

950
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:28,479
and so he they do a lot
of my booking and they actually connected me

951
01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:30,960
with this studio. So oh very

972
01:29:50,039 --> 01:29:54,039
lot of different artists lately, and
uh, I've just been kind of been

973
01:29:54,119 --> 01:29:57,760
influenced with that sound. Yeah.
Yeah, and you actually so you were

974
01:29:57,800 --> 01:30:00,359
telling me earlier, So you live
in Connecticut, but you come up here

975
01:30:00,399 --> 01:30:02,479
to record and play shows. Yeah, so, I mean I do play

976
01:30:02,479 --> 01:30:05,840
in Connecticut sometimes when I play in
Maine, I do most of my shows

977
01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:11,119
in New Hampshire through New Hampshire Music
Collective. Okay, which is which is

978
01:30:11,520 --> 01:30:15,880
a very large booking agency in New
Hampshire. Okay, and you're you're from

979
01:30:15,920 --> 01:30:17,880
here originally, I'm from Manchester,
New Hampshire. Woh yeah, you grew

980
01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:20,840
up here. Oh yeah, I
was a Central High school. I went

981
01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:25,279
to Oh I'll be doing okay,
Okay, what you did you graduate?

982
01:30:25,359 --> 01:30:30,680
I graduated in ninety seven? Oh? Okay. Do you know do you

983
01:30:30,720 --> 01:30:34,760
know Peter White, our morning show
host here? I know because he kind

984
01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:38,119
of because he grew up. See, I grew up in conquered. I

985
01:30:38,119 --> 01:30:40,800
didn't grow up in match, but
Peter grew up here and he seems to

986
01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:45,439
kind of know everybody. So um, yeah, so you so you so

987
01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:47,279
you grew up here, you went
to high school here, and then,

988
01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:51,760
um, what what took you to
Connecticut? Uh? Well, you know,

989
01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:57,640
Connecticut was I moved in. I
moved to Connecticut in two thousand and

990
01:30:57,840 --> 01:31:00,399
six, okay, and then I
ended up performing full time and I was

991
01:31:00,479 --> 01:31:03,840
touring the Northeast. Connecticut was central
to everything, you know, like you

992
01:31:03,880 --> 01:31:08,439
know, Boston, New York,
rod Ireland, mass everything was within two

993
01:31:08,520 --> 01:31:11,520
hours for the most part. So
that was a real great way to tour

994
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:14,199
that the Northeast. You know,
that makes sense. Yeah, So I

995
01:31:14,279 --> 01:31:15,680
did that for a few years,
you know, full time. Um,

996
01:31:16,199 --> 01:31:19,920
and then you know, the booking
and the managing myself got pretty exhausting.

997
01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:23,600
I didn't have a lot of help, so so I decided to back off

998
01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:26,479
a little bit. And then I
just got a job in the field where

999
01:31:26,479 --> 01:31:29,199
I have my degree in human services, and so I've been doing that.

1000
01:31:29,359 --> 01:31:33,000
But I still do that now,
but now music is back again at almost

1001
01:31:33,039 --> 01:31:36,479
full time. Oh yeah, I
perform. I perform every weekend. Okay,

1002
01:31:36,640 --> 01:31:40,720
okay, good, good, Um, and how did you connect with

1003
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:45,560
uh New Hampshire booking collective the name
New Hampshire Music, New Ampshire Music.

1004
01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:48,600
Yeah, yeah, New Hampshire Music
Collective. Yeah. So somebody had mentioned

1005
01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:54,359
to John MacArthur, who um is
one of the owners for for that agency,

1006
01:31:54,680 --> 01:31:57,760
and then he reached out to me
and then I reached back out to

1007
01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:01,159
him and then we connected and have
a great relationship. Now yeah, excellent,

1008
01:32:01,399 --> 01:32:04,560
excellent. You know, honestly,
he's made my career at what it

1009
01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:08,800
is right now. Without him,
I wouldn't be playing as much. So

1010
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:11,720
oh, no kidding, Yeah,
they're they're phenomenal people. Yeah. So

1011
01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:15,520
are you literally up here every weekend
or just about? No kidding, yeah

1012
01:32:15,800 --> 01:32:19,920
about just about. So I'll do
Thursday Friday Saturday shows or Friday Saturday Sunday.

1013
01:32:20,199 --> 01:32:24,520
Yeah, and I'm playing three two
to three nights a week. Okay,

1014
01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:27,840
yeah, okay, very good.
Yeah that's pretty cool. Now do

1015
01:32:27,880 --> 01:32:30,439
you have any kind of an eta
yet on when the new album will be

1016
01:32:30,560 --> 01:32:33,600
done? July? Early July?
Okay, yeah, I'm gonna put I'm

1017
01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:38,880
gonna be posting my CD release dates
on my website and my social media.

1018
01:32:39,119 --> 01:32:41,600
Yeah. Yeah, So I'll be
letting everybody know when that's going to happen.

1019
01:32:41,680 --> 01:32:44,239
Oh, very good. Do you
know how many songs are gonna be

1020
01:32:44,319 --> 01:32:45,800
on? Six songs? Okay,
so it's just it's just an EPP.

1021
01:32:46,079 --> 01:32:51,920
Yeah yeah, um yeah, what
what goes into the decision to do because

1022
01:32:53,439 --> 01:32:55,920
and this is something I ask everybody, I'm always curious about this. You

1023
01:32:55,920 --> 01:32:58,680
know, obviously we live in a
time where, um, you've got a

1024
01:32:58,720 --> 01:33:00,359
lot of different options because of the
Internet. You know, you could do

1025
01:33:00,399 --> 01:33:02,600
an EP, you could put out
an album, you could just put out

1026
01:33:02,640 --> 01:33:06,960
singles, right. Um. I've
met in the last few years especially,

1027
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:11,239
I've met a lot of artists who
they do the thing where they're just putting

1028
01:33:11,279 --> 01:33:14,680
out singles, but eventually they're going
to take those singles and put them into

1029
01:33:14,720 --> 01:33:16,960
an EP or put them into an
album. That's the plan. Is that

1030
01:33:17,079 --> 01:33:20,000
the plan? Yeah? Yeah,
yeah. I actually was talking to John

1031
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:24,760
about that today and we're talking about
pushing the singles and then and then having

1032
01:33:24,800 --> 01:33:28,680
the EP come together. Yeah yeah, yeah. It's funny because you know,

1033
01:33:29,319 --> 01:33:32,079
when I was growing up, it
was you know, artists would put

1034
01:33:32,119 --> 01:33:35,760
out an album and then go on
tour and then eventually they put out so

1035
01:33:35,920 --> 01:33:39,920
different. But yeah, yeah,
it's like night and day different, is

1036
01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:42,880
it? Oh? Yeah? Is
it hard to make those those I mean,

1037
01:33:42,960 --> 01:33:45,720
on the one hand, it's nice
to have all these options, right,

1038
01:33:45,800 --> 01:33:48,720
But at the same time, um, is it is it difficult for

1039
01:33:48,760 --> 01:33:50,960
you to make those choices? As
far as we'll do I do an EP?

1040
01:33:51,399 --> 01:33:54,680
Do I do you know how many? How many songs am I going

1041
01:33:54,720 --> 01:33:57,039
to record for this project? Well? I mean, so you know,

1042
01:33:57,119 --> 01:33:59,600
I had plenty of songs to pick
from I could have recorded. I want

1043
01:33:59,600 --> 01:34:01,159
to. I want to at some
point we record some of the older stuff

1044
01:34:01,199 --> 01:34:04,199
that I recorded. Yeah, but
these were six new songs or five new

1045
01:34:04,279 --> 01:34:06,520
songs that I had that I had
written. So I just wanted to get

1046
01:34:06,560 --> 01:34:10,800
the five new ones out. Yeah. And I'm also covering John Denver's Country

1047
01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:13,439
Roads on the new EP. Oh
ok. Yeah, yeah, I'm playing

1048
01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:15,760
that one forever and I just I
finally I wanted to get it recorded.

1049
01:34:15,960 --> 01:34:21,399
Yeah. Yeah. Do you when
you play out do you do mostly originals?

1050
01:34:21,439 --> 01:34:24,199
Do you mix in some covers?
So there's like, you know,

1051
01:34:24,239 --> 01:34:27,199
original venues and there's cover venues,
right? Yeah? So I mean like

1052
01:34:27,359 --> 01:34:30,159
listening rooms like I'm gonna I'm gonna
give a shout out to the Tee Total

1053
01:34:30,279 --> 01:34:33,680
or and Conquered. Uh, that's
a listening room. So when I play

1054
01:34:33,720 --> 01:34:38,399
Tee Total or, it's ninety five
percent originals. But I play places like

1055
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:41,680
um around you know, if I
play places like Foster's Tavern, yeah,

1056
01:34:42,119 --> 01:34:44,760
or if I play over here at
the Foundry, like, I'll do mostly

1057
01:34:44,840 --> 01:34:46,439
covers and I'll throw in a few
originals here and there, just because that's

1058
01:34:46,520 --> 01:34:49,640
that's the kind of scene, you
know. Yeah, But listening room events,

1059
01:34:49,680 --> 01:34:53,439
I will do all my originals.
Yeah. So when you say it's

1060
01:34:53,439 --> 01:34:57,199
a list it's a listening room.
So it's people are there to actually hear

1061
01:34:57,239 --> 01:35:00,439
the music, right, Yeah,
they're there to listen and have it be

1062
01:35:00,760 --> 01:35:03,600
a non speaking event where they're they're
focusing on the music, like let's say

1063
01:35:03,600 --> 01:35:08,039
a second concert hall kind of thing. Yeah yeah, okay yeah, Whereas

1064
01:35:08,079 --> 01:35:10,479
at a bar it's uh yeah,
it's like it's like, yeah, you

1065
01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:13,399
play covers and you get a reaction
to people, and then they start listening

1066
01:35:13,439 --> 01:35:15,920
in then you get a rapport and
so then I throw on a few originals

1067
01:35:15,079 --> 01:35:17,800
at that point. Yeah. Yeah. Do you do any um, do

1068
01:35:17,880 --> 01:35:24,079
you do any covers that are kind
of obscure I've met some artists who you

1069
01:35:24,119 --> 01:35:27,479
know, they'll they'll do a few
covers that are are fairly you know,

1070
01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:30,319
they might be from well known artists, but maybe they're deep tracks or whatever.

1071
01:35:30,399 --> 01:35:33,479
And and sometimes, um, sometimes
the audience doesn't necessarily know that they're

1072
01:35:33,520 --> 01:35:35,720
covers. Yeah, I know,
I definitely do some songs like that.

1073
01:35:36,680 --> 01:35:41,880
I'm not quite sure Tom Petty all
or nothing. Um, okay, I'm

1074
01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:44,039
not sure if you know that song, but I do that one. I'm

1075
01:35:44,079 --> 01:35:46,479
trying to. I probably know it, so I'm sure I have a catalog

1076
01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:48,760
somewhere in my brain. Yeah,
it's a great it's a great song.

1077
01:35:48,920 --> 01:35:50,920
So I do a lot of Tom
Petty, I do a lot of Credence,

1078
01:35:51,039 --> 01:35:55,039
I do Supretty, Carlisle, I
do Tracy Chapman. Yeah, I

1079
01:35:55,199 --> 01:35:59,560
do uh, Paul Simon, Simony
Garfunkle. I mean I cover plus I

1080
01:36:00,119 --> 01:36:03,199
do at Sharon. I mean big
plethora of of songs I do here.

1081
01:36:03,279 --> 01:36:05,760
Yeah, so from what were back
from the sixties all the way toil currents

1082
01:36:05,920 --> 01:36:09,520
is the songs that I cover.
Do you have any idea how many songs

1083
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:13,359
you know? Could you put a
number on it? I have about almost

1084
01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:16,880
five hours of music I could play
yeah, it's a lot of music.

1085
01:36:17,119 --> 01:36:20,159
Wow. Do you ever do you
ever? Do you ever go back and

1086
01:36:20,239 --> 01:36:25,119
re learn something you might have might
have forgotten? Yeah, I'll go back

1087
01:36:25,159 --> 01:36:27,439
and look. But you know,
I so I'm old school. You know.

1088
01:36:27,520 --> 01:36:29,760
All these artists are out with their
tablets and like, yeah, you

1089
01:36:29,840 --> 01:36:31,279
know, I just I still have
the old book. Yeah. I have

1090
01:36:31,560 --> 01:36:34,119
had my old book on my stand
and I flipped through and you know it's

1091
01:36:34,159 --> 01:36:38,119
about this big yeah. Yeah.
But they're like, you're probably kind of

1092
01:36:38,119 --> 01:36:39,399
my friends. I you want to
get a talblet. I was like,

1093
01:36:39,439 --> 01:36:41,760
I don't know, because I just
I'm used to this this you know,

1094
01:36:41,840 --> 01:36:44,279
this book because it's full. It's
my cover songs. I can't remember I

1095
01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:47,840
five five hours of cover songs,
right right of course. But yeah,

1096
01:36:47,880 --> 01:36:51,840
that's my lifeline right there. Yeah. Yeah. Are there any other artists

1097
01:36:51,880 --> 01:36:56,439
that you play a lot of shows
with? You know, sometimes people sort

1098
01:36:56,479 --> 01:36:59,800
of it happens almost by accident,
people sort of team up and end up

1099
01:36:59,840 --> 01:37:02,079
just on the same bill a lot. Well, speaking of that, not

1100
01:37:02,319 --> 01:37:05,920
really, but I am with the
New Hampshire women Folk Singers. Um,

1101
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:10,399

and uh, there's gonna be a big

1102
01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:15,800
festival in September September sixteenth, up
a way up north Um Sugar Shot Campground.

1103
01:37:15,560 --> 01:37:21,319
Uh. And there's the creator um
of the festival, kind of found

1104
01:37:21,560 --> 01:37:26,600

with her. Um. And it's just

1105
01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:30,039
a really amazing, amazing group.
You have to if people are interested in

1106
01:37:30,159 --> 01:37:33,159
hearing this folk group, which I
would highly suggest and recommend, it's New

1107
01:37:33,239 --> 01:37:36,640
Hampshire Women Folk. Okay, yeah, it's it's just amazing. It's going

1108
01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:41,199
to be a really great event.
It's it's focusing on music and for it's

1109
01:37:41,239 --> 01:37:45,359
focusing on women's music. Yeah,
and um, bringing in artists who you

1110
01:37:45,479 --> 01:37:49,640
know, are independent, who don't
have a name yet for themselves, featuring

1111
01:37:50,079 --> 01:37:55,560
these people who are very talented who
deserve the stage. Is this an annual

1112
01:37:55,640 --> 01:38:00,960
event? This is the first year. It's pretty amazing. So yeah yeah,

1113
01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:05,039
So Erica Cushing, Um, she's
uh, she's the creator. Okay.

1114
01:38:05,119 --> 01:38:09,119
Yeah, she's a wonderful folk artist
as well singer songwriter. She's great.

1115
01:38:09,359 --> 01:38:13,760
Okay. Is she the headliner at
the uh, not the headliner,

1116
01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:16,720
but she's pretty much created the whole
thing, gotcha. Yeah yeah, oh

1117
01:38:16,800 --> 01:38:23,640
that's cool. It's very cool.
Yeah. Um yeah, it's Um it's

1118
01:38:23,720 --> 01:38:26,680
nice to see too, just a
lot of live music happening in general,

1119
01:38:27,079 --> 01:38:31,039
because obviously with COVID uh, you
know, everything really shut down for a

1120
01:38:31,079 --> 01:38:34,920
while there. I mean, what
is did that because you had mentioned too

1121
01:38:35,039 --> 01:38:39,039
that you know, you would kind
of you would really slow down with the

1122
01:38:39,159 --> 01:38:42,279
music career for a while. Um, did that play any kind of a

1123
01:38:42,399 --> 01:38:45,720
role in that, sort of just
having that you know that the pandemic foisted

1124
01:38:45,840 --> 01:38:47,439
upon you. Yeah, at some
point it did. So I had I

1125
01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:49,880
have my son, he's eight years
old. So when I had Noel,

1126
01:38:50,000 --> 01:38:53,640
I was playing a little bit.
But then I just kind of really maybe

1127
01:38:53,760 --> 01:38:56,079
four times a year, I was
playing, yeah, very low key,

1128
01:38:56,239 --> 01:38:59,439
oh okay. And then over the
past year is when I started getting back

1129
01:38:59,439 --> 01:39:01,720
into it. But the pandemic I
didn't play out at all hardly. But

1130
01:39:02,279 --> 01:39:06,680
um, I am a program director
for a nonprofit agency in Connecticut, and

1131
01:39:06,720 --> 01:39:12,680
I service we serviced people disabilities.
Yeah, so I oversee programs where people

1132
01:39:12,760 --> 01:39:17,640
live there. So during that year
of the initial pandemic year, they weren't

1133
01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:20,760
able to leave their houses, they
weren't able to see family, they were

1134
01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:25,159
like literally secluded in their home.
So what I did was I created a

1135
01:39:25,800 --> 01:39:30,039
Thursday night live music event called Together
at Home. Yeah, so I would

1136
01:39:30,119 --> 01:39:33,479
go online every Thursday at six o'clock
and all the group homes would join in

1137
01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:36,159
and they would be able to see
live a live music. I did that

1138
01:39:36,199 --> 01:39:39,800
for an entire year every Thursday.
Oh no kidding, Yeah, that was

1139
01:39:39,840 --> 01:39:43,439
pretty awesome. Oh that's cool.
Um. Were you able to tell how

1140
01:39:43,479 --> 01:39:46,039
many uh while I was? Yeah? So well it started it's because it

1141
01:39:46,119 --> 01:39:48,520
was zoom, because you could see
all the zoom people entering in. So

1142
01:39:48,600 --> 01:39:50,960
yeah, I started off at like
five or six people and then it turned

1143
01:39:51,000 --> 01:39:57,359
out to be about thirty people.
Thirty thirty individuals but several locations. So

1144
01:39:57,520 --> 01:40:00,960
yeah, it was a pretty It
was great them because they were able to

1145
01:40:00,800 --> 01:40:05,079
have a community during pandemic. Yeah, yeah, um it did. Uh

1146
01:40:06,319 --> 01:40:11,399
did you write any Have you written
any songs about about that that period?

1147
01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:15,720
No? Not really, um,
because I was working in the group home

1148
01:40:15,760 --> 01:40:20,199
and yeah no, I really really
didn't because it didn't it wasn't that different

1149
01:40:20,239 --> 01:40:23,560
for me because we went to work
and I couldn't not go to work.

1150
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,560
So yeah, yeah, my lifestyle
didn't really change exactly. Yeah, no,

1151
01:40:26,760 --> 01:40:30,039
that makes sense. That makes sense. Um, do you so you're

1152
01:40:30,119 --> 01:40:33,840
you're up here every weekend playing.
Are there also what's some music scene like

1153
01:40:33,880 --> 01:40:38,479
in Connecticut? Are you able to
or do you even have time to engage

1154
01:40:38,520 --> 01:40:41,720
in the music scene much there because
you're you're up here quite a bit.

1155
01:40:41,880 --> 01:40:44,560
Yeah, it's just different. It's
it's weird, it's it's it's a different

1156
01:40:44,680 --> 01:40:46,880
kind of scene. Like New Hampshire
loves music. Yeah, I feel like

1157
01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:50,760
New Hampshire is just like music driven
on the weekends, like local music is

1158
01:40:50,840 --> 01:40:56,359
really you know, big here.
Yeah, I think it's okay in Connecticut.

1159
01:40:56,600 --> 01:40:59,720
Yeah, it's uh, it's it's
just a whole different it's a whole

1160
01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:03,319
different way to approach music in Connecticut. I think booking myself has been difficult

1161
01:41:03,359 --> 01:41:09,119
there really. Yeah, it's really
weird. Yeah, there is there just

1162
01:41:09,279 --> 01:41:14,640
a lack of do you think there
there's a lack of appreciation for local music.

1163
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:16,800
They're just not Yeah, it's different, it's different. Yeah, I

1164
01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:19,199
would say I would I wouldn't know
if I would say that, but it's

1165
01:41:19,239 --> 01:41:23,319
definitely a different feel. Yeah,
yeah, it's not the same. When

1166
01:41:23,359 --> 01:41:26,319
I come here, it's like amazing. Yeah. Yeah, do you do

1167
01:41:26,399 --> 01:41:30,079
you ever? Do you do shows
in Boston or so? I used to

1168
01:41:30,159 --> 01:41:32,680
play in a band called the Everyday
Visuals and I was their bass player.

1169
01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:36,239
I remember the Everyday Visuals, Yeah
I was. I was a bass player

1170
01:41:36,319 --> 01:41:40,840
for about ten years. Yeah,
and then we played a lot in Boston

1171
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:44,520
and a lot around here. But
yeah, so I haven't been to Boston

1172
01:41:44,600 --> 01:41:46,680
in a while. But with Hampshire
Music Collective, the goal is to get

1173
01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:50,479
more in mass So okay, yeah, yes, so ten years you were

1174
01:41:50,479 --> 01:41:54,920
in that band ten years all through
high school, college and a little bit

1175
01:41:54,920 --> 01:41:59,159
after college. No kidding, Okay, what when when you left that?

1176
01:41:59,399 --> 01:42:02,279
I mean was the band ending or
did you know even they kept going?

1177
01:42:02,560 --> 01:42:06,039
No? You know, I just
wanted to pursue my solo career, you

1178
01:42:06,119 --> 01:42:10,199
know, I mean I love the
music. I mean it was like four

1179
01:42:10,279 --> 01:42:13,239
part harmony, three part harmony,
awesome band. I mean we were like

1180
01:42:13,359 --> 01:42:16,640
a independent rock band, you know, very very very awesome music. Yeah

1181
01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:20,319
yeah, but I just um parted
ways. And you know all of my

1182
01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:25,039
projects that you hear were was were
engineered by some of the guys in the

1183
01:42:25,079 --> 01:42:29,079
band. Oh yeah, so everything
everything that's recorded was done by the guys.

1184
01:42:29,279 --> 01:42:31,600
Yeah. Yeah, do they still
Does that band still exist in some

1185
01:42:31,760 --> 01:42:35,720
former yeah a little bit. So, Um, the lead singer, Christopher

1186
01:42:35,760 --> 01:42:41,079
Pappas he does his own thing.
Um, Kyle Frederickson was the guitar player,

1187
01:42:41,520 --> 01:42:44,199
engineer type guy. He's doing his
own thing. And then Joe Cider

1188
01:42:44,279 --> 01:42:46,479
is the drummer, is actually now
the drummer for the New Pornographers. Oh

1189
01:42:46,520 --> 01:42:49,840
okay, yeah, that's pretty good. That's pretty cool. Good for him

1190
01:42:50,119 --> 01:42:53,600
for him, is right? Yeah? And then and there torn all the

1191
01:42:53,680 --> 01:42:58,000
time, and yeah, selling out
places and yeah, that's wow. He's

1192
01:42:58,640 --> 01:43:01,560
I mean, all those guys in
the Bad and I mean amazing musicians.

1193
01:43:01,720 --> 01:43:05,439
I mean Chris was the main song
writer who wrote all the songs and yeah,

1194
01:43:05,560 --> 01:43:10,159
just very talented guys. Is everything
that you're doing now is that all?

1195
01:43:10,520 --> 01:43:13,119
Is that all you in terms of
the writing? Yeah? Yeah,

1196
01:43:13,159 --> 01:43:16,720
it's all me. Yeah. Do
you ever have you ever considered collaborating with

1197
01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:19,079
anyone or do you want to keep
your solo stuff? No? Well,

1198
01:43:19,119 --> 01:43:23,560
you know Erica I mentioned before her
and I've been talking about doing some co

1199
01:43:23,720 --> 01:43:26,840
writes. Yeah. Um, it's
really important, I think to co write

1200
01:43:26,840 --> 01:43:30,359
because it opens you up to different
ways of songwriting. Sure, you know,

1201
01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:33,000
because you're kind of boxing in your
own way, and then if you

1202
01:43:33,079 --> 01:43:35,119
cart somebody it's just like, oh, I never thought of that. And

1203
01:43:35,199 --> 01:43:40,000
then you start, you know,
start opening up your writing style. Um,

1204
01:43:40,079 --> 01:43:42,960
and you mentioned you played bass and
everyday visuals. What what was your

1205
01:43:43,119 --> 01:43:45,720
your first instrument was bass? You
started on bass and yeah, I had

1206
01:43:45,760 --> 01:43:49,479
a four spring Washburn Okay, yeah, and then I then I upgraded to

1207
01:43:49,560 --> 01:43:53,920
a five spring Ernie Ball oh,
which is a music man, which is

1208
01:43:53,920 --> 01:43:57,640
an amazing bass. It's a solid
rock bass. Yeah. And then I

1209
01:43:57,800 --> 01:44:00,479
then I got my tailor, my
tailor acoustic. See, I'm a player,

1210
01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:02,199
So as soon as somebody mentions more
than four strings, I'm like super

1211
01:44:02,279 --> 01:44:04,479
impressed. I'm like, used to
play a five strings. Oh man,

1212
01:44:04,520 --> 01:44:08,039
it's the best at Lowby? Is
that the Lowby on that on that bass

1213
01:44:08,079 --> 01:44:11,800
can make so many different sounds And
I'm sure, I'm sure it's awesome.

1214
01:44:11,880 --> 01:44:15,279
I can't. I've never I've never
attempted it. See, I started on

1215
01:44:15,399 --> 01:44:18,560
bass because um and a bass players
hate when I when I say this,

1216
01:44:18,680 --> 01:44:23,039
but it's just the truth. So
when I was a kid, I took

1217
01:44:23,079 --> 01:44:27,079
guitar lessons and unfortunately I was one
of those lazy kids who, Um,

1218
01:44:27,319 --> 01:44:29,840
if I wasn't good at it right
away, I would get bored with it

1219
01:44:30,479 --> 01:44:32,760
so because you know, okay,
I you know, I could continue to

1220
01:44:32,880 --> 01:44:36,520
learn these scales and chords, but
I really like that video game and I'm

1221
01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:39,840
good at that. So it is
that kind of thing, you know,

1222
01:44:40,199 --> 01:44:43,279
I would I, I mean,
I took lessons, and but I I

1223
01:44:43,479 --> 01:44:47,279
plateaued because I just I didn't have
the discipline I wish I had. But

1224
01:44:47,439 --> 01:44:50,720
anyway, so then in high school, I picked up a bass, you

1225
01:44:50,760 --> 01:44:55,479
know, just fooling around with some
friends. Musically, I picked up a

1226
01:44:55,520 --> 01:44:58,760
bass, and I seem to have
a feel for it, but I also

1227
01:44:59,039 --> 01:45:01,079
was keenly aware. I remember that
this is the part that bass players hate

1228
01:45:01,119 --> 01:45:06,039
when I say this, But I
remember thinking, two less strings, and

1229
01:45:06,199 --> 01:45:10,600
I don't have to know any chords. I think I found my instrument.

1230
01:45:11,640 --> 01:45:14,640
And then I went on to play
bass and a bunch of bands. But

1231
01:45:15,039 --> 01:45:16,920
that's cool. Yeah, yeah,
so so I and I, you know,

1232
01:45:17,039 --> 01:45:18,880
so I can play guitar a little
bit, you know, just power

1233
01:45:18,960 --> 01:45:21,159
chord, like I could be in
a punk band if I would write,

1234
01:45:21,199 --> 01:45:25,279
probably, but that's about the best
I could do. But but so you

1235
01:45:25,399 --> 01:45:28,079
started on bass and then you went
to guitar, Yeah, yep. And

1236
01:45:28,199 --> 01:45:30,520
then I usually play all the bass
tracks on my records usually. Okay,

1237
01:45:30,760 --> 01:45:32,520
this one, I don't know if
I'm going to or not. I haven't

1238
01:45:32,560 --> 01:45:35,920
played in several years, so i'm
a little I'm a little dusty. So

1239
01:45:36,199 --> 01:45:41,600
um. And that guitar you have
sounds fantastic. It's got a very rich,

1240
01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:44,159
full sound. Yeah, it's my
tailor. It's it's it's only a

1241
01:45:44,199 --> 01:45:46,960
three fourteen or three fifteen. Um, and it's I bought it. That's

1242
01:45:47,039 --> 01:45:50,199
This guitar is twenty years old,
no kidding? Yeah? Oh wow?

1243
01:45:50,319 --> 01:45:57,039
Yeah? Has the original um?
Has the original Fishman pick up? Yeah,

1244
01:45:57,119 --> 01:45:59,479
in the in the tailor because the
new tailors have a new a new

1245
01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:02,600
model okay, and people just love
this old model much better. Oh wow.

1246
01:46:02,720 --> 01:46:05,319
Yeah. And that sounds amazing,
Yeah it does. Is that the

1247
01:46:05,359 --> 01:46:08,760
only guitar you use? Yeah,
for the most part. Yeah, I

1248
01:46:08,760 --> 01:46:12,920
don't blame you, no, really, it sounds it sounds really good.

1249
01:46:13,039 --> 01:46:15,560
It is a good one. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, And it's warmed

1250
01:46:15,640 --> 01:46:17,000
up over the years. You know, the wood ages and you get that

1251
01:46:17,079 --> 01:46:20,159
deeper tone because because Taylors tend to
have a higher end sound to them.

1252
01:46:20,319 --> 01:46:24,239
Okay, but you know, once
you played Taylor for twenty years, it's

1253
01:46:24,279 --> 01:46:27,479
it's a lot warmer because Taylors are
very bright. I've heard people say that.

1254
01:46:27,720 --> 01:46:30,680
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Martins
are warmer. Guilds are warmer,

1255
01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:34,680
Taylors are bright. Yeah. Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah, so I

1256
01:46:34,760 --> 01:46:38,800
assume that's that's the guitar you use
on all the all the oh yeah,

1257
01:46:38,880 --> 01:46:42,359
in the studio. Yeah yeah.
Oh very nice, Yeah, very nice.

1258
01:46:42,399 --> 01:46:45,359
It's pretty sweet. Yeah, that's
my pal, you know. Yeah.

1259
01:46:46,760 --> 01:46:49,439
Um, do you have I know, I asked you how many songs

1260
01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:51,960
do you know? Do do you
have any idea how many songs you've written?

1261
01:46:54,239 --> 01:46:59,880
Um? God, probably like I'll
be eight hundred. Yeah, yeah,

1262
01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:02,159
I would say maybe like a hundred. Um. Do you still play

1263
01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:06,399
any anything that you know if you
think back to early when you started writing

1264
01:47:06,439 --> 01:47:10,640
songs, do you still play anything
that goes there's one there's one song,

1265
01:47:10,800 --> 01:47:13,119
so the very first, one of
the very first songs I wrote. I

1266
01:47:13,359 --> 01:47:15,239
still do that one, no kidding, Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's

1267
01:47:15,279 --> 01:47:18,600
a yeah, that's the only one
really that I do. That's really old.

1268
01:47:18,800 --> 01:47:23,000
Oh that's cool. Has it changed
over the years? Do you stay

1269
01:47:23,079 --> 01:47:27,119
faithful with the stage, faithful to
the original arrangement? Yeah, that's cool.

1270
01:47:27,239 --> 01:47:30,960
Yeah, yeah, that's awesome.
That's awesome. Um. And when

1271
01:47:30,039 --> 01:47:34,840
did so the studio material that we've
been featuring on the show. Obviously you

1272
01:47:34,920 --> 01:47:38,720
know you've got the new one that's
coming out, and you said probably July,

1273
01:47:39,039 --> 01:47:42,880
Yes, early July. Um,
when so the songs that are on

1274
01:47:42,960 --> 01:47:45,680
your website currently that we've been playing, when did those come out? Those

1275
01:47:45,720 --> 01:47:50,119
are twenty fifteen? I think twenty
fourteen or twenty fifteen. Yeah, it's

1276
01:47:50,119 --> 01:47:53,359
it'still been a while since I've done
anything. Yeah, yeah, and that's

1277
01:47:53,359 --> 01:47:55,159
what That's what I mean. So
I was kind of I kind of laid

1278
01:47:55,239 --> 01:47:56,960
low, but now that I'm back
in it, I'm like, glad,

1279
01:47:56,960 --> 01:48:00,399
I gotta get something new out there, right right, no doubt. Um,

1280
01:48:00,079 --> 01:48:02,920

1284
01:48:14,680 --> 01:48:18,319
what's kind of the the future trajectory? So you've got the new album

1285
01:48:18,399 --> 01:48:23,960
should be done in July, and
then um, you have plans because you

1286
01:48:24,760 --> 01:48:26,760
you know, you said, you
know, things were kind of low key

1287
01:48:26,800 --> 01:48:29,520
for a while and then started really
ramping back up. So do you plan

1288
01:48:29,640 --> 01:48:31,760
to just just keep going, just
keep touring. Yeah, I really would

1289
01:48:31,760 --> 01:48:35,239
love to do this full time and
be able to leave my human service job.

1290
01:48:35,520 --> 01:48:39,439
Yeah, if you know, once
and for all and then uh perform

1291
01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:41,319
music, you know, for four
nights a week and have that be full

1292
01:48:41,359 --> 01:48:45,000
time and yep, um yeah,
I mean with New Hamps Music Collective,

1293
01:48:45,079 --> 01:48:46,920
they're definitely helping me with that.
Yeah, it sounds like you're on your

1294
01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:49,760
way. Yeah. Yeah, they're
they're great, They've been amazing. Yeah.

artists. Yeah, yeah, they have

1297
01:48:56,520 --> 01:48:58,560
a lot of artists. I'll have
to look them up. I'm curious.

1298
01:48:58,880 --> 01:49:00,079
I feel like I've heard of them, but I'm sure you have. I

1299
01:49:00,119 --> 01:49:03,880
mean, because they're they they book
many venues in the state. Okay,

1300
01:49:04,079 --> 01:49:08,159

a long time, I assume, yeah,

1301
01:49:08,199 --> 01:49:10,000
for a little while. Yeah,
I don't think very long, but

1302
01:49:10,119 --> 01:49:13,840
long enough for they have a really
they have a lot of venues. Yeah,

1303
01:49:14,039 --> 01:49:16,119
yeah, oh that's cool. Yeah. You do you ever open for

1304
01:49:16,159 --> 01:49:20,079
anybody, any national acts that come
through or I've opened up for several in

1305
01:49:20,159 --> 01:49:25,039
the in when I was playing a
while back. Yeah, I opened up

1306

1310
01:49:41,840 --> 01:49:45,319
And hopefully John Over at A Hampshire
was a collective is going to hopefully start

1311
01:49:45,760 --> 01:49:49,720
getting me into those roles. Do
you have a dream headliner you'd like to

1312
01:49:49,760 --> 01:49:54,079
open for? Yes, the Indigo
Girls. For years, I've wanted to

1313
01:49:54,159 --> 01:49:56,399
do that. They m Yeah,
they used to come. I don't know

1314
01:49:56,399 --> 01:49:58,640
if they still do. They still
come around a lot. They used to

1315
01:49:59,119 --> 01:50:01,680
go to uh Brook every summer.
Yeah. They're also with the Flying Monkey

1316
01:50:01,760 --> 01:50:04,239
now every every year. Oh no
kidding, at least once or twice a

1317
01:50:04,319 --> 01:50:09,920
year. Yeah. Oh so that's
so that's good. Well that's geographically,

1318
01:50:10,039 --> 01:50:13,039
that's uh. I'd say that the
Tipsy Odds in your favorite Yeah, I

1319
01:50:13,279 --> 01:50:15,520
hope that would be awesome. Yeah, that would be great. It seems

1320
01:50:15,520 --> 01:50:19,279
like they've been around forever, around
to the eighties. Wow, Yeah,

1321
01:50:19,680 --> 01:50:26,279
what's there? So they? Um, what I appreciate about artists like that

1322
01:50:26,760 --> 01:50:33,119
is they're they're an example of someone
who's been able to build such a career

1323
01:50:33,319 --> 01:50:38,680
and a following, a loyal following, with very little support from radio,

1324
01:50:39,479 --> 01:50:42,760
you know, And and again that
is true. I mean I think there

1325
01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:45,439
I think there might be one or
two songs that yeah, and I'm sure

1326
01:50:45,600 --> 01:50:47,800
you know, it depends on the
format you're listening to. But as far

1327
01:50:47,880 --> 01:50:53,920
as like mainstream radio really is there
is there one song that was kind of

1328
01:50:53,960 --> 01:50:57,119
big that I've closer or fine,
Oh yes, yes, yes, that

1329
01:50:57,279 --> 01:50:59,319
one. Yeah, that one was
on the radio a lot. Yeah,

1330
01:50:59,359 --> 01:51:01,439
that one was kind of a hit. Yeah yeah, But but they've never

1331
01:51:01,560 --> 01:51:04,920
had a big presence on radio,
and that just always impresses me. Um

1332
01:51:05,520 --> 01:51:12,159
completely different genre obviously, and not
someone that I enjoy their their work personally,

1333
01:51:12,399 --> 01:51:15,279
but just another example that I happened
to be discussing on the show the

1334
01:51:15,319 --> 01:51:18,479
other day with somebody insane clown posse. Yeah, I don't like them,

1335
01:51:18,960 --> 01:51:25,880
but you know, they've got this
this empire that they've built with no support

1336
01:51:25,960 --> 01:51:30,079
from radio like at all. Ever, It's that's impressive. It is impressive.

1337
01:51:30,119 --> 01:51:32,960
In the same thing with Annie de
Franco. Oh, I love her.

1338
01:51:33,039 --> 01:51:36,640
She is like very self made I've
met her. Yeah, oh she's

1339
01:51:36,720 --> 01:51:41,319
she's amazing. She is amazing.
Um. I think the last time I

1340
01:51:41,399 --> 01:51:45,760
saw her was in Providence. Um
it was quite a while ago. I

1341
01:51:45,760 --> 01:51:46,920
haven't seen her in a long time. But yeah, but yeah, you're

1342
01:51:46,960 --> 01:51:50,520
right. She's another example. Yeah, someone who really you know, she

1343
01:51:51,239 --> 01:51:56,159
uh started I remember she started her
own label. She probably still has it.

1344
01:51:56,319 --> 01:52:00,199
Oh yeah, definitely Righteous Baby Records, Yes, yes, and uh

1345
01:52:00,600 --> 01:52:03,520
yeah really just uh, I remember
when she was first starting to really get

1346
01:52:03,600 --> 01:52:10,640
traction because at the time I was
working obviously you remember Strawberries Tapes and I

1347
01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:13,880
was working at the One and Conquered
and uh, that was where I first

1348
01:52:13,960 --> 01:52:17,640
really became aware of her. And
um, people started coming in looking for

1349
01:52:18,399 --> 01:52:23,279
looking for her stuff, and at
first we didn't have it because nobody,

1350
01:52:23,920 --> 01:52:27,000
it was like nobody that worked for
the company was aware of her. But

1351
01:52:27,199 --> 01:52:29,960
somebody was aware of her because we
kept having people coming in, you know,

1352
01:52:30,039 --> 01:52:32,840
asking for Annie de Franco. So
finally we started getting her music in.

1353
01:52:33,319 --> 01:52:36,520
But uh, but yeah, you're
you're right. She's another example of

1354
01:52:38,840 --> 01:52:41,399
because honestly, off the top of
my head, I can't think of a

1355
01:52:41,439 --> 01:52:45,680
big radio hit. I'm sure there's
something I'm forgetting I think possibly. Okay,

1356
01:52:45,880 --> 01:52:49,520
yeah, but but again, someone
who's never had a big presence on

1357
01:52:49,720 --> 01:52:53,960
radio, but who's very successful.
Oh my gosh, you knew this.

1358
01:52:54,520 --> 01:52:57,079
She sells out in a day.
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.

1359
01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:00,640
Um. I always respected that about
the Grateful Day too. Again,

1360
01:53:00,680 --> 01:53:02,680
I'm not not a big fan.
Can take them, relieve them. But

1361
01:53:03,159 --> 01:53:05,840
you know, they other than a
touch of gray, they didn't really have

1362
01:53:05,960 --> 01:53:09,600
No, you're right. I mean
I think they had one other They had

1363
01:53:09,960 --> 01:53:14,640
a few, but nothing never dominant. But Ripple Ripple was pretty big.

1364
01:53:14,800 --> 01:53:17,279
Yeah, but they could you know, sell out anywhere in the world really,

1365
01:53:17,439 --> 01:53:21,760
Oh yeah, absolutely when Jerry Garcia
was still alive. So um,

1366
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:24,840
oh my god, we're almost out
of time. All right. Well,

1367
01:53:24,880 --> 01:53:26,960
before we go, I just want
to mention one thing, yea please,

1368
01:53:27,039 --> 01:53:30,359
I am performing tomorrow night here in
the area. I'm going to be in

1369
01:53:30,479 --> 01:53:32,920
Bow, New Hampshire at chin Yang
Lee. Okay, yeah, oh I

1370
01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:35,399
know that place. Yeah, So
I'll be there and I seem to I

1371
01:53:35,399 --> 01:53:38,039
think it's going to be a full
house. I have a lot of my

1372
01:53:38,119 --> 01:53:41,840
old and my Manchester Girls Softball League
friends come in. Then I get a

1373
01:53:41,880 --> 01:53:44,000
lot of other friends coming so if
you want to come for a good time

1374
01:53:44,039 --> 01:53:45,960
that Chin Yang Lee. I play
at seven very good, very good?

1375
01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:48,359
Are you how long are you playing
to? You know, seven to ten?

1376
01:53:48,439 --> 01:53:51,640
Seven to ten? Alright, And
that's it's the Bow location. Excellent,

1377
01:53:51,800 --> 01:53:55,119
excellent. Oh there's another one.
I think there is. Yep.

1378
01:53:55,199 --> 01:53:57,079
Oh, I didn't know that.
Okay, bad food, I think,

1379
01:53:57,199 --> 01:53:58,960
oh, yeah, that's right.
Oh you know what, Yes, I

1380
01:53:59,039 --> 01:54:00,279
did know that in the back of
my mind, and I forgot yes,

1381
01:54:00,439 --> 01:54:03,600
yes, but I think I think
of the Bow one because I grew up

1382
01:54:03,640 --> 01:54:05,960
and conquered. Oh okay, I
forget, forget that. There's one in

1383
