00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.359
<v Speaker 1>Join us on the line right now. It's Cody Canada.

2
00:00:03.680 --> 00:00:04.759
<v Speaker 1>Hey Cody, how are you man?

3
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:06.960
<v Speaker 2>How good? How you doing this morning?

4
00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm great, man, It's great to talk to you, dude.

5
00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:13.279
<v Speaker 1>Congratulations on the sold out shows over at boone Pickens.

6
00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:16.679
<v Speaker 2>Oh, thank you man. It's pretty pretty wild to me.

7
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:18.719
<v Speaker 1>I've always wanted to ask us when we see shows

8
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:21.320
<v Speaker 1>get added one after another when they sell well, was

9
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:23.719
<v Speaker 1>it planned or did you have a contingency plan for

10
00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:25.320
<v Speaker 1>her to add multiple days?

11
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I honestly didn't think that we would sell

12
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:35.479
<v Speaker 2>out even one night. And then I walked into the

13
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:37.039
<v Speaker 2>kitchen and my wife was on the phone with a

14
00:00:37.039 --> 00:00:39.359
<v Speaker 2>book an agent, and she said, Okay, it looks like

15
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:44.119
<v Speaker 2>we're doing night too. Okay, So and then after that

16
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:49.399
<v Speaker 2>they added night three and four just instantly. So it

17
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:50.320
<v Speaker 2>was all shocked to me.

18
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:54.759
<v Speaker 1>Was there a debate ever to add another date? When like,

19
00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:56.640
<v Speaker 1>were you like, all right, let's just do like two more?

20
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:00.960
<v Speaker 2>There was like one hundred and are two hundred and

21
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.079
<v Speaker 2>fifty thousand more people in the queue, So that was

22
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:08.519
<v Speaker 2>definitely you know, a plan, but we decided that let's

23
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:12.200
<v Speaker 2>let's just get through the first the four and uh

24
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:13.640
<v Speaker 2>and then we'll plan after that.

25
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>You know what, what what about the because I know

26
00:01:17.079 --> 00:01:19.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people that never got tickets and the

27
00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:23.079
<v Speaker 1>did like the frustration and stuff. Were you ever guys

28
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:25.480
<v Speaker 1>ever brought in like hey there's a problem with ticket

29
00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:27.640
<v Speaker 1>sales or there's more demand than we expected. Was there

30
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:30.760
<v Speaker 1>any that business side of that that you were involved in?

31
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:34.799
<v Speaker 2>I I got online before everything went on sale, and

32
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 2>I said, you know, don't buy from third party. You know,

33
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.760
<v Speaker 2>there were gonna everybody buy from the school. You know,

34
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:43.840
<v Speaker 2>if something happened, then you have to buy a third party,

35
00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:45.079
<v Speaker 2>and you really want to come to the show and

36
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:49.200
<v Speaker 2>do that. But there was such so much internet traffic,

37
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:52.959
<v Speaker 2>server traffic that pe I mean, there was no way

38
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:55.280
<v Speaker 2>that anybody that everybody could get them. And then we

39
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:56.719
<v Speaker 2>found out, you know that a lot of it was

40
00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:00.439
<v Speaker 2>like seat geek and stub hub. But I don't, I

41
00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:02.599
<v Speaker 2>don't really think you can beat that system. I don't.

42
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:04.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean I don't. If Tavid Swift can't, I damn

43
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:05.439
<v Speaker 2>sure can't. You know?

44
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:09.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Yeah, From an artist's standpoint is what does that?

45
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:10.400
<v Speaker 2>Do?

46
00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:11.919
<v Speaker 3>You do you feel helpless?

47
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:14.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean, of course you feel you know, empathy for

48
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:16.039
<v Speaker 1>fans and stuff, because you want them to come to

49
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:17.439
<v Speaker 1>the shows, but where does that land with you?

50
00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:22.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, yeah, it's it's frustrating, you know. I mean

51
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 2>I have people, I've been doing this for thirty thirty years,

52
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 2>thirty one years next year, and man, I've got people

53
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:31.400
<v Speaker 2>all over the country that want to see the show.

54
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:34.080
<v Speaker 2>And then you know, on top of that, I'm only

55
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:38.039
<v Speaker 2>allowed so many people on a guest list. So that's

56
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 2>definitely empathy. You know. I really felt like this is

57
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:44.400
<v Speaker 2>the kind of the way I'm built, though. I kind

58
00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:46.719
<v Speaker 2>of felt like I let people down, But in the end,

59
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:49.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's nothing I could do about it.

60
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.280
<v Speaker 3>How did the show? Those shows in April?

61
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:54.800
<v Speaker 1>How did just because you thought it was gonna be

62
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:57.120
<v Speaker 1>a one day thing, but how did that come to?

63
00:02:57.159 --> 00:02:59.400
<v Speaker 3>Fruition? Share it with us and the fans?

64
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:03.159
<v Speaker 1>Like how the idea of getting back together and doing

65
00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:04.800
<v Speaker 1>this and doing that day and doing it in still

66
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:06.000
<v Speaker 1>are How did all that come about?

67
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:11.319
<v Speaker 2>So about if you got a minute, I.

68
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 3>Got all the time you want, man.

69
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:19.360
<v Speaker 2>And like two years ago, my wife lost her dad,

70
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:22.599
<v Speaker 2>so we went to we kind of got away from everything,

71
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:24.400
<v Speaker 2>and I have friends up in New York and we

72
00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:26.960
<v Speaker 2>went up there to hang out for a few days

73
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:29.599
<v Speaker 2>and we went to see a band called eichnine Kills.

74
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:34.360
<v Speaker 2>My kids and wife loved metal, and honestly I like

75
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:37.919
<v Speaker 2>it more than then I used to. But uh. We

76
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:41.400
<v Speaker 2>were underneath the Madison Square Garden at the Hulu Theater

77
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:46.120
<v Speaker 2>and we took the kids back to the house and

78
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.520
<v Speaker 2>then we walked to a bar and my wife was

79
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:51.960
<v Speaker 2>going around the table saying, Hey, let's let's talk about goals,

80
00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:54.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, let's sitch goals. And she in to me

81
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:55.759
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, kind of teary eyed, and She's like,

82
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:57.919
<v Speaker 2>what's wrong with you? I said, I think it's time

83
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:01.280
<v Speaker 2>that we we start real man's in the idea. I

84
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.080
<v Speaker 2>would like to at least, you know, have everybody be

85
00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:08.319
<v Speaker 2>friends again. And so there was She said to me,

86
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:10.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, I think that's great, but the thing I

87
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:13.560
<v Speaker 2>want from you is to be happy. And I was like, well,

88
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:15.159
<v Speaker 2>I kind of want everybody to be happy. I mean,

89
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:18.839
<v Speaker 2>just the world is so especially our country is there's

90
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:20.959
<v Speaker 2>everything's so divided, and people were yelling at each other

91
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 2>all the time, and like, what's this? This is something

92
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:26.839
<v Speaker 2>that makes people have fun. And so it was a

93
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:31.519
<v Speaker 2>two year process and my book and agent, John Folk,

94
00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:34.000
<v Speaker 2>who is I told him he told me not to

95
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:36.759
<v Speaker 2>say it, but I don't care what he says. He

96
00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:40.160
<v Speaker 2>he's one the reason that this is happening. I mean it.

97
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:44.160
<v Speaker 2>I know it took us calling each other and talking

98
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:47.079
<v Speaker 2>through things, which really wasn't that big a deal. The

99
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:49.480
<v Speaker 2>more I lean into it, the more I realized that

100
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:51.560
<v Speaker 2>I think I was the one that was kind of

101
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 2>like maybe holding a grudge, you know, and uh, for

102
00:04:55.839 --> 00:04:59.959
<v Speaker 2>no reason. I mean my thought was nobody died, nobody's screed,

103
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 2>nobody around. It was just, you know, we just had

104
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:06.560
<v Speaker 2>a disagreement fifteen years ago, and we were overworked and

105
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:10.600
<v Speaker 2>we were over drinking. And now everybody's grown and their

106
00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:13.759
<v Speaker 2>kids are grown, and maybe it's time, you know. I mean,

107
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:17.560
<v Speaker 2>it's think think outside of yourself, is what I tried

108
00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:20.600
<v Speaker 2>to tell myself, you know. And what's what's There's people

109
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:25.279
<v Speaker 2>out there that are mad, whether it's financially or politically

110
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.720
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, and let's just kind of come together and

111
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:33.519
<v Speaker 2>see what we can do. And uh, John said, hey,

112
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:37.439
<v Speaker 2>I think we can do the football stadium. So the

113
00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:39.120
<v Speaker 2>first thing I thought was we're going to sell half

114
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:42.079
<v Speaker 2>half of the stadium. That's about it. It's like, well,

115
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:44.240
<v Speaker 2>whatever we got to do, let's let's do it, and

116
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:47.439
<v Speaker 2>let's do it in still Water first, and uh, we

117
00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:49.360
<v Speaker 2>got on the phone with each other and man, everybody

118
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:52.279
<v Speaker 2>just fell back in love with each other instantly, and

119
00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:57.279
<v Speaker 2>there was a tears and joy and and you know,

120
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.480
<v Speaker 2>talking about our kids have bands and what's let's do

121
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:03.360
<v Speaker 2>this for them, and man, to be honest and not

122
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:05.800
<v Speaker 2>over sell it. I mean, it really was just a

123
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:09.160
<v Speaker 2>love fest. You know. It's let's get back in the saddle,

124
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:14.959
<v Speaker 2>not necessarily, you know, go back on tour, because that's

125
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:17.800
<v Speaker 2>that's what did it. You know, was working too much

126
00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:21.879
<v Speaker 2>and you know we're not young anymore, so we just

127
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 2>settled on, Okay, let's do a handful of shows. Well

128
00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:26.160
<v Speaker 2>that handful of shows happened to turn out to be

129
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:28.560
<v Speaker 2>the same as the same town four nights in a row.

130
00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:33.160
<v Speaker 2>And man, it just this last weekend we were in

131
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:36.279
<v Speaker 2>still Water for homecoming and was the first time everybody

132
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:40.279
<v Speaker 2>got together in fifteen years in the same room, and man,

133
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:43.360
<v Speaker 2>it was beautiful. We had a good time. We joked around,

134
00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:46.759
<v Speaker 2>we talked about the good times and what's to come.

135
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:49.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, what is it about getting older that makes

136
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:52.120
<v Speaker 1>you reflect back on relationships?

137
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:52.639
<v Speaker 3>You had.

138
00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:55.399
<v Speaker 1>This is more like philosophical like anyone in general, not

139
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:59.040
<v Speaker 1>just you specifically, but that makes you reflect back and go, man,

140
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:00.639
<v Speaker 1>I want to re do on that.

141
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:04.879
<v Speaker 2>I think it's the more behind you than there is

142
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.560
<v Speaker 2>ahead of you that I think, in my personal opinion,

143
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:13.120
<v Speaker 2>I think it's looking around going you know, I have

144
00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.199
<v Speaker 2>something that's just pressing down on me that I would

145
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:17.879
<v Speaker 2>like to lift off me, you know. And my kids

146
00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.839
<v Speaker 2>are nineteen in almost seventeen. You know, they told me

147
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.519
<v Speaker 2>that it was so nice to see everybody together. It

148
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:27.480
<v Speaker 2>was just like a weight was lifted. I think this

149
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:29.959
<v Speaker 2>was part of it, you know. I mean my kids

150
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:32.360
<v Speaker 2>never would bring up, hey, would you get the band

151
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.600
<v Speaker 2>back together? Because they knew it was, you know, a

152
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:38.199
<v Speaker 2>subject that I was not necessarily a sour subject, but

153
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:40.600
<v Speaker 2>just the subject that I was tired of talking about.

154
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:46.720
<v Speaker 2>But now, man, I keep going back to my family

155
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:50.439
<v Speaker 2>and I are metal heads and comic book nerds, and

156
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:55.600
<v Speaker 2>I was watching the entire world just enjoy each other

157
00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:58.199
<v Speaker 2>because of the Deadpool Wolverine thing. And I tell my

158
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:00.439
<v Speaker 2>wife is like, that's what I want to do, you know.

159
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:03.720
<v Speaker 2>Obviously not on the scale that they're doing it, but

160
00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:07.240
<v Speaker 2>everything they do is just positive and making everybody happy.

161
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:10.639
<v Speaker 2>And I want to do that on a smaller scale,

162
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:13.360
<v Speaker 2>and I feel like we got to do it. You know,

163
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:15.279
<v Speaker 2>there were people that were meant, they're upset they didn't

164
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:18.560
<v Speaker 2>get tickets and everything, but in the end, man, that

165
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:19.279
<v Speaker 2>wasn't our fault.

166
00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Would just all have fun, you know, right, uh you

167
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>mentioned I mean, I think historically people think that there

168
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:30.879
<v Speaker 1>was personal reasons to end the band to go and

169
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:33.120
<v Speaker 1>spend time with family, which is true, I would I

170
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:35.360
<v Speaker 1>would assume. But what I'm hearing you say is no,

171
00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:37.200
<v Speaker 1>there there's more to it. And I'm not asking to

172
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:39.399
<v Speaker 1>spill the beans, but like you're saying, there's more to

173
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:40.120
<v Speaker 1>it than just that.

174
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:43.799
<v Speaker 2>But the thing that really the big issue was there

175
00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:48.039
<v Speaker 2>was never any like one issue. It was we were overworked.

176
00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:51.720
<v Speaker 2>We all had kids at the same time. I mean,

177
00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:53.279
<v Speaker 2>all of our kids are the same age, well we

178
00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:56.759
<v Speaker 2>all of us except Jeremy. Jeremy has four kids. They're

179
00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>all different ages. But Randy and Great and and I

180
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:04.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean our kids are all the same ages because

181
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:08.080
<v Speaker 2>our wives were all pregnant at the same time while

182
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:10.960
<v Speaker 2>we were recording the record called Garage, and that was

183
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:13.039
<v Speaker 2>a stressful moment. You know, because that was the year

184
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.799
<v Speaker 2>that we did two hundred and fifty shows shows that's

185
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 2>not traveling, and so really there wasn't like a really

186
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:25.480
<v Speaker 2>big blowout. It was just we were just overworked, over stressed,

187
00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:31.159
<v Speaker 2>and one night a disagreement happened, and we just didn't

188
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:34.159
<v Speaker 2>really recover from it, you know. Just and and I'll

189
00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:38.279
<v Speaker 2>say this to everybody out there. Alcohol does not mix

190
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 2>well and a stressful a stressful condition, you know. But

191
00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:47.799
<v Speaker 2>now everybody's alcohol intake is either zero or barely. And

192
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:51.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, we just you know, when we started

193
00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:54.320
<v Speaker 2>the band, we were hell Randy was sixteen years old,

194
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:58.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, I was seventeen. So I mean this is

195
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:01.919
<v Speaker 2>something that we were we said out as teenagers as

196
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:07.039
<v Speaker 2>a goal to do something, not necessarily change a scene

197
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:10.039
<v Speaker 2>or change the way things are done or anything like that.

198
00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:14.000
<v Speaker 2>We just we just wanted to play music and have

199
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:16.240
<v Speaker 2>fun and take it as far as we could. I

200
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:18.240
<v Speaker 2>remember telling my wife when we just met us, like,

201
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:20.120
<v Speaker 2>our plan is to take this as far as we can,

202
00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:26.639
<v Speaker 2>you know, and still have integrity without selling out whatever

203
00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:28.879
<v Speaker 2>that is. You know, selling, it's selling. That's different to everybody,

204
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:32.559
<v Speaker 2>but to me, it was you know, the they pegged

205
00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:34.279
<v Speaker 2>us as a country band. It was like, okay, but

206
00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:37.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm not doing the national dance. I'm not We'll sign

207
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:38.960
<v Speaker 2>a record label with them, but I'm not going to

208
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:43.879
<v Speaker 2>do the dance. And it was just the label pushing us,

209
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:48.799
<v Speaker 2>booking agency pushing us, and then pregnant wives and then

210
00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:51.440
<v Speaker 2>missing home and all of a sudden, everybody's just mad

211
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:54.159
<v Speaker 2>and there was really no way to get past them,

212
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:57.679
<v Speaker 2>and except put a little bit more alcohol on it,

213
00:10:57.840 --> 00:11:00.759
<v Speaker 2>you know. And I'm not saying everybody, I'm really saying

214
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:05.679
<v Speaker 2>me and uh man, just one day we just w

215
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:08.600
<v Speaker 2>just woke up and thought, if we don't ever play

216
00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:12.039
<v Speaker 2>a note together, at least we can you know, be

217
00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:14.080
<v Speaker 2>civil to each other. We weren't uncivil, but it was

218
00:11:14.120 --> 00:11:17.039
<v Speaker 2>just we just didn't talk. So it was nice to

219
00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:20.639
<v Speaker 2>It was nice to be able to shed shed that

220
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:23.559
<v Speaker 2>gross skin and be able to hang out with everybody

221
00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:25.679
<v Speaker 2>last weekend and still water and you know, the guys

222
00:11:25.720 --> 00:11:28.799
<v Speaker 2>got up and jams a couple of tunes, and our

223
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:30.440
<v Speaker 2>kids got up and we all jammed together. So we

224
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:33.960
<v Speaker 2>had a big family thing, family jam and so it uh,

225
00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:35.399
<v Speaker 2>I feel like it's on the right track.

226
00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Is this gonna be the one? Is it gonna be

227
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:39.000
<v Speaker 1>a one off? Is this gonna be it? Or is

228
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.639
<v Speaker 1>there hopes to do other things.

229
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:46.679
<v Speaker 2>I am in the middle of never say never, because

230
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.200
<v Speaker 2>I said never for a long time. I wouldn't see

231
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:55.639
<v Speaker 2>why we wouldn't. I'm not going to don't. I really

232
00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:57.639
<v Speaker 2>don't want to get back on the road full time.

233
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:01.799
<v Speaker 2>You know. I just did a pretty busy year What's Departed,

234
00:12:02.320 --> 00:12:04.000
<v Speaker 2>and it was fun and everything, but it made me

235
00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:08.559
<v Speaker 2>realize that that I need to be home more, you know,

236
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:11.360
<v Speaker 2>and my wife has a music school and it's nice

237
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:13.080
<v Speaker 2>to be home bill to help her. And my kids

238
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:15.399
<v Speaker 2>are in a metal band and I want to help

239
00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:21.120
<v Speaker 2>them pursue their thing, and I think doing the Ragweed stuff,

240
00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:23.440
<v Speaker 2>I'll be able to take more time to be on

241
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:25.720
<v Speaker 2>with my family. So I'm not going to say no.

242
00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:29.399
<v Speaker 2>But it's definitely not going to be Hey, let's go

243
00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:32.480
<v Speaker 2>out for three weeks. You know. This will be probably

244
00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:34.919
<v Speaker 2>one office or whatever. But well, I'll be able to

245
00:12:34.960 --> 00:12:40.080
<v Speaker 2>have a more positive answer after we see how April goes.

246
00:12:40.759 --> 00:12:45.399
<v Speaker 3>I think people would love to see you.

247
00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:48.639
<v Speaker 4>Guys at the King's Ballroom again, But thinking realistically about this,

248
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:52.159
<v Speaker 4>you guys just sold out four days at boom Picking Stadium, right,

249
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:55.480
<v Speaker 4>four days, you guys could sell out to be Okay

250
00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:59.279
<v Speaker 4>Center easily. I think the same amount of four days.

251
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:04.600
<v Speaker 4>So I guess, Cody, what what does retirement look like

252
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:07.360
<v Speaker 4>for you? As you as you're kind of you know, hey,

253
00:13:07.480 --> 00:13:09.600
<v Speaker 4>let's just do our thing and enjoy life, and you

254
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:12.639
<v Speaker 4>want to spend more time at home, What does retirement.

255
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:12.919
<v Speaker 3>Look like for you?

256
00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:20.159
<v Speaker 2>Ed to me? Chasing my kids their dreams, you know,

257
00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:23.399
<v Speaker 2>you know, I take them to all these concerts, all

258
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:27.200
<v Speaker 2>these festivals, and they're really they're really good about being

259
00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:30.759
<v Speaker 2>social and about about networking and everything. And I know

260
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:35.039
<v Speaker 2>that it's a hard a hard business to really crack.

261
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:38.320
<v Speaker 2>And I'm just now learning the metal world and the

262
00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:42.360
<v Speaker 2>people in it, and they're so kind. I mean, when

263
00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:44.919
<v Speaker 2>I was a kid, my mom had me scared that,

264
00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:47.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, I was going to go to these metal

265
00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:49.000
<v Speaker 2>concerts and they were going to offer me free drugs,

266
00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:53.240
<v Speaker 2>and I was gonna, you know, get in fights and everything,

267
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:56.679
<v Speaker 2>and and I mean the drugs thing, you know, I've

268
00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of seen that happen. But when it comes to

269
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:02.480
<v Speaker 2>just the mentality of a metal crowd, there is so

270
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:05.240
<v Speaker 2>kind and I would I'm so glad my kids picked

271
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:10.200
<v Speaker 2>that genre, so chasing them around. You know, I live

272
00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:14.600
<v Speaker 2>in South Texas now, I have for twenty like twenty

273
00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:18.600
<v Speaker 2>three years. I think, Man, I wouldn't mind going somewhere

274
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:25.399
<v Speaker 2>where it's cooler, you know, Colorado and following my kids

275
00:14:25.399 --> 00:14:27.720
<v Speaker 2>and my wife will never ever, ever be able to

276
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:30.519
<v Speaker 2>not work. There's no other way around that.

277
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:31.399
<v Speaker 3>Me.

278
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:36.679
<v Speaker 2>On the other hand, I wouldn't mind just fishing and

279
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:38.320
<v Speaker 2>enjoying and enjoying cooler weather.

280
00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:42.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, dude, we would love to spend more time talking

281
00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:43.919
<v Speaker 1>with you. We've run out of time.

282
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:44.480
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

283
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Congratulations on those shows, dude. Everybody is so excited. I

284
00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:53.960
<v Speaker 1>can't wait to see the difference between Night one and

285
00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:56.279
<v Speaker 1>Night four and what that's like for you guys, and

286
00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:56.759
<v Speaker 1>to see you.

287
00:14:56.759 --> 00:14:57.879
<v Speaker 3>Enjoying it up on stage.

288
00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:00.440
<v Speaker 1>Man, that's that's a very cool moment that not everybody

289
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:03.919
<v Speaker 1>gets to experience. To relive something from the past and

290
00:15:04.039 --> 00:15:04.639
<v Speaker 1>keep it going.

291
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:05.360
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

292
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Final question for you. We ask people, what's the best

293
00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:10.639
<v Speaker 1>thing you bought on Amazon for fifty bucks? What's the

294
00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:12.559
<v Speaker 1>best thing you bought on Amazon for under fifty bucks?

295
00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:12.879
<v Speaker 3>Cody?

296
00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:17.559
<v Speaker 2>For under fifty bucks, I bought a pair of black

297
00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:20.399
<v Speaker 2>and orange parachute pants that I got to play in

298
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:22.399
<v Speaker 2>and still water the other night. That's the last thing

299
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:25.360
