Speaker 1: Joining us right now in studio. Let me get the
MIC's up for these guys. We have rabbits for sale.
Hey guys, hello, what's up. Let's do this and we're
gonna play some more of your music, of course in
a couple of minutes. But Jet, let's start with you
in the corner, and if we can just go around
and you can each tell me who you are, what
you do in the band, and have any other pertinence
of course.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, my name is Jet Harris Lack. I play guitar,
the guitar.
Speaker 3: And I sing lead vocals, and I guess we'll patch
the spencer all right, kind of lighting up spencer the
keyboards for the band.
Speaker 2: I do some background vocals as well.
Speaker 1: All right, yeah, all right, very good.
Speaker 4: And you I'm Vance Carpenter. I played bass in the band.
And a fun fact about me, I like mac and cheese.
Speaker 1: You like mac and cheese, that's crazy.
Speaker 2: I like mac and cheese too, I can change.
Speaker 5: I'm Oliver Caine. I'm the drummer for the band.
Speaker 6: And uh, I also do a lot of the managing
and I did the production on the EP.
Speaker 1: Oh no kidding, Oh, very cool, very cool. Where did you?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 1: Where did you record that?
Speaker 6: So we recorded that with a friend of ours, David Porter,
up in his home studio in Foxborough.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, it sounds great, Thank you, Thank you. So
as home studio you said.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he he used to have a studio way back
when in Boston called Mixed One studio, I believe. Okay,
but you know, things happen. So now he has his
own little studio that he has in his basement. He
does his own stuff. He's done audio production stuff for
a while.
Speaker 5: So, uh, love shout out to Dave Porter, of course.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, he did a great job. Everything sounds
really good. You know, I'm old enough to remember when
you know, the home studio thing wasn't really a thing,
you know, so now you know, we live in an
era and you know, you guys are are fortunate. You know,
you're young guys, you know, growing up in an era
where you know, you have so many different options in
terms of how you record, and it's right, you know,
you can you can do something like that home studio
quote unquote, and it sounds like it was done in
a million dollar studio, you know.
Speaker 3: You know, it's just so much more accessible now, like
oh yeah, making and produce music and you know, and
get it out there for millions to hear.
Speaker 2: So it's really great.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and there's still you know, there's a lot
of great studios around. It's interesting how that that continues
as well. It's like, even though you have all these
different options for how you record, there's still a lot
of professional studios around that continue to thrive. It's I
think it's because there's just more people making music than ever,
you know, because of the Internet. Like I said, you know,
I when I was growing up, we didn't have the
Internet yet, so you know, it was it was kind
of ah, you didn't have a lot of opportunities to
really get your music out there, you know, unless you
got signed to a record label and all that. But
but today there's so many different ways to to record
and to distribute music. It's really wonderful. And uh, there's
more music than than ever. Yeah. I'm really curious to
ask you guys about it influences and and how you
kind of define your sound because and I'm sure you've
probably heard this a million times, but you know, it's
it's unique. I couldn't think of anybody as I was
listening to the songs you know, I was trying to
figure out who you remind me of, and I'm not sure.
I mean I heard maybe a little bit of Vampire
Weekend at least on one of the songs, But but
I like you guys a lot better than I like
Vampire Weekend. So I don't know if that even works.
But uh, I mean, talk to me about that, Like
I'm I'm gonna guess that there's like a mix of
terms of yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: So like you know, we all, you know, I grew
up listening to a whole bunch of stuff, a lot
of like a lot of us grew up on little classics,
you know, beatles, you know, and like you know, led
Zeppelin and Late Queen and all these like classic rock
influences that kind of like shaped or like are kind
of our taste for music. And then we kind of
broadened out and like, you know, like we listened to
really obscure acts like will Wood and the Tape Worms
is one that like we all really it's one that
we really listen to a lot, and you know, it's
very very small, small much smaller artists. You know that
they have more of like a more of a cult
following on the Internet, but like and that's sort of like,
I don't know, that was really inspiring us. Yeah, you know,
starting out and you know, releasing music also on the Internet,
and like you know, it's just like it's a different
way to reach an audience. So it was just and
I'm sure Aliver you have influences you want to talk
about as well.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I think, you know, we all had different
backgrounds and a lot of different music that we do
listen to.
Speaker 5: Like I'm I'm a big Elliott Smith guy.
Speaker 6: That's my my go to guy for sure, and that
comes through on some of my tracks and like some
of the stuff I do, but it also mixes with
like something Spencer Advanced would do at the same time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think we all have a lot of
different influences, which makes writing music together very interesting and
also challenging at times.
Speaker 1: Yeaheah.
Speaker 4: And also just like I think we're still trying to
find our sound as well. But yeah, I mean, I
can't really. I mean there's bands that we like to play,
like we'll play like some covers, I know, like the
Rare Occasions.
Speaker 8: Is kind of I think.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean when I describe like what kind of
music I play to people, I usually say like alternative.
Speaker 3: Really we also kind of dip into like the folk
here acoustic stuff too, which is like but not as
much as probably other indiacts, which is a you know,
but yeah, like man said it, you know it is
it is a challenge and like we're still finding our sound.
You find on this EP we sort of do meander.
It's a stew that's why we called it the Rabbit Stew. Yeah,
it's supposed to be, you know, and because it's it's
kind of like, you know, a meld of our influences
and it's kind of meandering through all of those different
flavors of music.
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, no.
Speaker 1: I think that's a big part of what makes it
so interesting to listen to. You know, As I'm listening
to the four tracks, I mean, they are all they all
kind of sound like the same band, but at the
same time, they're very they're very different, different textures in
the songs, and I forget which one I I emailed.
I forget which one I said was my favorite.
Speaker 5: I'll be okay, I'll be okay.
Speaker 1: That's yeah, that one, that one especially really that really
gets me. But thank you, do you guys, are you
playing out a lot? Do you play a lot of shows?
Speaker 8: Yes, we actually have a show today.
Speaker 1: Oh that's right, you've got something tonight. Yeah, we should
definitely plug that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: We're playing at the Tributary Brewing Company, kitter Remain. We're
gonna playing from four to six, so if you're in
the area, so we'll fick it out, get it, get
get get some Bruce Ki's and listen to some great music.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a good time. And then what else
do we have coming up?
Speaker 8: We have our next one after that is.
Speaker 5: We're gonna play Newburyport Brewery. I forget the day on it,
the tenth, That is the tenth that's gonna.
Speaker 8: Be a little later in the day.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it'll be a little later well like six or
something like that. I forget the exact time on that one.
But then we play Midway Cafe on the thirty first
as well. That's another one right there.
Speaker 1: Excellent, excellent. I would imagine with your sound, you guys
can play a lot of different kinds of places, like right,
because you're not you know, you're not a metal band,
so you're not like super loud, but you're not you know,
you're not just like like an acoustic act either, so
you know, it's not like you're you know, you're kind
of just doing coffee shops right like you can probably
fit in almost anywhere, I would imagine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we really do try to like broad, keep it
broad because you know, we you know, we have a
lot of Yeah, we do have a huge dynamic range,
you know, where we can really play something that's really
like kind of forward, more punkin than kind of yeah,
more soft, you know.
Speaker 4: It's just yeah, and I think we have some acoustic
stuff too, so it depends. Sometimes we play like an
electric set, but it's also nice to be able to
play an acoustic set.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, yeah.
Speaker 6: When we need to, even like every now and then,
we also bold to like some jazz because we all
and we all also come from like a jazz background.
Speaker 5: We played in the jazz group for a.
Speaker 6: While altogether, and guess that's how we Yeah, that is
kind of like when we all knew each other from
goal in general. But we also played you know, in
our high school, we were in the jazz combo together.
So the award winning jazz combo.
Speaker 1: Oh no kidding, Oh yeah, oh, very cool, very cool.
Speaker 6: So yeah, yeah, we we all kind of met each
other and started playing through that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you guys were all in school together. Yeah yeah,
oh excellent, excellent and Jet Now your father was telling
me you you play, or at least in the I
think in the video. I watched the video of you
guys were doing something for the auditioning for the NP. Yeah, yes,
Tiny Desk concert. And I talked to your dad. I
assume he told you about this. I'd stopped in at
the store and he was telling me about the guitar
that was his that did you play? Yeah, so that
les Paul.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's gotta got some history, I guess.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: He he was a huge He was into all the
crazy hair metal bands and stuff. So he's yeah, you
know he he was. Randy Rose was a player that
really that really inspired him. So he went and got
a guitar that was just like his. Yea, like the
Floyd Rose style bridge kind of and the in lays
and stuff.
Speaker 2: It's a it's a really gorgeous guitar.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of a family I now, and I
kind of I kind of did he loan it to
you or did he give it to you? That's cool
and that must be so cool for him to to
see you use you know, and not sitting just kind
of collecting it's getting it deserves you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's that's excellent. Well we should play another
track and if you don't mind. Now, normally I would
I would say what should what should we play next?
But I I might be selfish in play I'll be
Okay because that is that is my personal favorite of these.
I absolutely love that song. Thank you, so we will
uh oh, we should mention too. Are these on an
album or is this just a collection of singles?
Speaker 2: Are part of our EP called Rabbits?
Speaker 1: Do okay? Gotcha? How many tracks are on the EP?
Speaker 2: Six six tricks?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: All right, very good. Well let's give this a listen
and then we're gonna we're gonna come back and talk
to these guys some more. We have Rabbits for sale
with us a live in studio. But this is my favorite.
Speaker 9: This is called I'll be Okay.
Speaker 10: Hap be gethers time. Guys, there's nothing to do, nothing
to spare when your life is having us? How come
you to get us? The sound of Shadowing Glass as
the empty Army Watson his song bad let's.
Speaker 7: Go for a walk through the top four of us.
Look at all the trees that just refer.
Speaker 10: Us sit on Mama's grade.
Speaker 7: A tragic What about a young guy like he thought,
getting what he thoughts? Get this man, he's done and
nothing now.
Speaker 11: But I hate his Faye.
Speaker 7: You send away heat socks and she's caught in thro
every joke on lies, don't buy able mills house.
Speaker 8: With right yellow wies.
Speaker 7: So I on my phone, my sacred just.
Speaker 10: See me dot on songs not.
Speaker 1: So don't find that's gonna done. So yes, I gets
so quiet at the end, but but I didn't want to.
I was reluctant to talk over it because it's so
pretty with the piano.
Speaker 12: I really love that one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is so good. That is so good. That
is called I'll be okay. And if you're just joining us,
the band is Rabbits for Sale and they're here with
us live in studio on this Saturday morning. Hey, where
does the name come from? Rabbits for Sale?
Speaker 13: So we uh and I used to play in an
older just high school band, mostly just for fun, and
on our on our way to practice one time we
saw this sign on our way there and it said
Rabbits for Sale. It was just like, you know, a
guy selling rabbits and he just had a sign out,
and we just thought we were like, yeah, that's cool,
that's a cool band name.
Speaker 1: I'm almost surprised someone didn't. I'm almost surprised someone didn't
have it already.
Speaker 5: I hope not.
Speaker 1: I was worried.
Speaker 8: I was worried we're going to brute force their way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I can tell you. I'm sure you realize
this if if you try to look you guys up
on Facebook, you got to type in rabbits for sale
band yea, yeah, because otherwise, because it turns out, and
I had no idea how many people on Facebook we're
selling rabbits.
Speaker 2: Turns out it's a lot, a lot of there's a
lot of rabbit thoughs. I mean yeah, I mean there's
a lot of them to go around. So I mean,
what you do.
Speaker 5: We're trying to get a very niche audience of rabbit.
Speaker 3: So would helped if we had like a Facebook page
we don't have. We need to get a proper we'll
get one together.
Speaker 6: You don't have one, well, we have an Instagram. I
don't know if that technically it goes over to Facebook
as well.
Speaker 8: Yeah, because you need to get on the Facebook.
Speaker 2: On the face, get on the Facebook.
Speaker 1: I'm curious about the writing process. Do you guys all
write together, do you get together and jam or how
does that work?
Speaker 3: A bit of a little bit of everything, Like they
don't know started as a gym and then we all
kind of like pulled together and I'm like, hey, let's
write something. But a good amount of the other ones
were kind of individual, like you know, kind of us
just kind of breaking off and kind of we're especially
since we were kind of forming the band, it was
kind of material we already had in our back pocket.
Speaker 1: They were okay bringing forward, So everybody kind of brought something.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Jet, do you always sing no?
Speaker 2: So on that last track, all of us sings that one?
Speaker 1: You sing that one on?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, okay, Yeah, we all kind of share a
lot of like the lead vocals. I think Jet definitely
does the most, but like vancings on the song, Spencer
has his own songs as well that he sings, and
then I sing my songs as well. Yeah, it kind
of you know, changes little beatles es.
Speaker 1: I I was just thinking that it's it's cool that
you're all able to sing lead and mix it up
like that. Now, is it just you Oliver on that track?
Speaker 12: Is it is?
Speaker 7: There?
Speaker 1: Are the vocals doubled? Because that sounds I love the
vocals on that. I love the sound of that.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so we doubled them and did that lower one
and then we had that higher sort of like Michael
Jacksony weird sounding one as well on top of it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, it sounds really cool. I really creates a
cool vibe. What do you when you play do you
play that one live?
Speaker 5: We do play that one live. Yeah, when we play
it live, I usually do the higher part and Jet
we'll do that.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah that makes sense. That makes sense. Now you
mentioned covers. What do you guys do for covers? Because
I find you can kind of tell a lot about
the band's influences from what they what they choose for
cover songs.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I mean we were starting out doing kind of some
obscure covers of bands that we like. Yeah, so we're
trying to do I guess it's like more popular tunes.
So like right now we're doing uh, recently, we've been
doing moon Age, day Dream by Bowie. We're doing a
talking Head song Psycho Killer.
Speaker 5: Oh nice, but we do it different, we do it cool.
Speaker 8: Yeah, we can do kind of like a punk.
Speaker 1: I've heard that's I've heard that song covered before, and
it seems like everyone who covers it kind of puts
a different spin on it, which is cool. And I
love every version I've ever heard of it, including the original.
Of course, my dad loves that song too, I remember
growing up because we were both big talking D's fans.
But yeah, that's a great choice. Yeah what what what else?
Oh it's a really no. I was asking about covers.
Speaker 13: Covers, right, Yeah, and then we also got some Some
of our early covers that we did were like from
the more obscure bands, were like.
Speaker 2: Orange Dog Club. We did cover their song called untitled.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I don't know them Orange.
Speaker 2: They're like Spells us.
Speaker 3: They actually have a bigger following than their Spotify than us,
so they have a lot.
Speaker 8: I think they kind of uh grew from TikTok.
Speaker 2: They grew from TikTok, but they're still very small.
Speaker 12: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I think they're upstate New York.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I found them one day and I was like,
these guys are awesome, and like, you know, you know
hopefully like one day I'm gonna shoot an email and
be like, hey, let's do a collapse because they have
a great sound and like I feel like I can
imagine like a show bill with like the two of
us on.
Speaker 2: It would just like be amazing.
Speaker 8: Yeah, we do some Tally Hall.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Telly Hall's another act.
Speaker 5: It's like Banana Man did some Banana one of There's
more Cold.
Speaker 1: Do you guys when when you do obscure covers, does
anyone ever come up to you afterward and say, hey,
I really love that song and they assume that it's
yours because they don't they don't know it.
Speaker 5: That never happened.
Speaker 6: I think we've had to state multiple times that it
is a cover. Like when we cover Tally Hall, we
did the Bidding and then we also did Banana Man.
Speaker 5: Great songs.
Speaker 6: I haven't heard them listen to them, but I think
there was like once or twice when we've played Banana
Man where we've.
Speaker 5: Had to be like, this is a cover.
Speaker 2: By the way.
Speaker 6: I remember once at a show there was some guy
that when we started playing it, his face like lit
up and he was like, yeah a song.
Speaker 3: Yeahah, it was cool. Oh that's very good. Yeah, it's
one of those weird ones. And that song intest is
interesting because it's like it kind of like blew up
on the internet in like a weird way in the
early two thousands, so like some people know it, but
it's like they don't really know what it's from. But
like it's fun because it's so it's a goofy silly song, right,
and it's always a crowd pleaser, so we always we
kept it on the set like.
Speaker 2: Regarded like disregarding like the ability of the act.
Speaker 1: It just kind of yeah, Now, do you guys have
anybody Are there any other bands on the scene that
you kind of because I know from my own experience
sometimes this happens organically where you just kind of end
up teaming up with other bands and playing a lot
of shows with with certain other bands. Is there anybody
like that that that you guys have kind of teamed
up with.
Speaker 13: Yeah, so we've the past, We've we booked a couple
of gigs over the summer or from the spring that
we played with a couple of people, So gem D
we recently connected with and we've been trying to get
some shows with them, and also Willie DeNardo and the corporates.
We seem to really resonate with those artists and uh,
we we also just really like their music and playing
with them live. We just kind of formed a relationship
and you know, we definitely keep in touch as much
as we can.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's that's good. You know,
it's good to have others obviously. Networking is so important,
you know when you're doing this and uh and being
able to have other bands that you can kind of,
like I said, it happens organically, but you know, kind
of team up with and support each other in that way,
and it's a great way to get a lot more shows.
You know, the more the more people you meet, the
more shows you get and so forth. So are you
guys playing out all you mentioned you've got a bunch
of shows coming up, But do you guys play out
through the year or I know, a lot of bands
kind of use on part of it I'm sure has
to do with part of the country that we're in
with you know, a colder winter. A lot of bands
kind of take winter to not do so many shows
but kind of focus on recording. Is that kind of it?
Speaker 2: Kind of coincidentally happened like that.
Speaker 3: I guess that we ended up doing all of our
gigs in the summer, Yeah, just because we had spent
all the time working on the EP in the winter. Yeah,
and we were released it in November, and then we
were like still sort of writing stuff. We recorded two
singles this past.
Speaker 5: January or February March, one of those months.
Speaker 3: And they're in that they're still in the mixing and
post production process, but we hope to have those out soon,
at least one of them out by the end of
the year.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I keep on the lookout for that.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: And also for a while, Vance was in New York
for a little bit going to school, so we were
short of basis, so we didn't really have the opportunity
to play too much. But Vance is back now, so
now we're gonna try and play as much as we can.
Speaker 5: For sure.
Speaker 1: Excellent, excellent, Well we should uh yeah, I want to
try to get them all in. Let's play another track.
What should we go with next? I'll let you guys
pick this time.
Speaker 2: What's on the list to be heavyto?
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the two ps.
Speaker 6: Flip a coin, you guys want to choose, Spencer, you
choose promenade, Promenademenade.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was wondering. You know, it's funny. When I
looked at it, I in my mind I said promenade,
and and then I listened to it and I said,
oh no, it's promenade. All right, we'll go with this
one next. If you are just joining us, we have
Rabbits for sale. No, we're not selling rabbits. It's the
name of the band Live in Studio. Yes, we love rabbits,
but no Rabbits for sale is here with this Live
in Studio. We're playing some tracks from their EP. What's
it called again, rabbit Stew rabbit Stew.
Speaker 2: It's streaming on all platforms, Spotify, Apple.
Speaker 1: Music, Outstanding, Outstanding. All right, give this a listen. This
is called promenade.
Speaker 14: Myself to your dad, will you take a chance on me?
When the music starts to slow, I'm like to load
to see. Then I could say that I do anything
to want about my No, but all of those things
that I've thought to myself, I never do. If I
ask to take your health, would you work your hands
in February comes round?
Speaker 7: Would you be like fault to lie? And I could
say that I'd do anything, no wronger problem all of
those things that are not to myself I never do
and I fun mo inspires.
Speaker 13: Would you walk along.
Speaker 7: With be my sweetheart? Four all times? Promise made.
Speaker 6: I've been busy.
Speaker 7: And I could say that I do everything I want.
The problem us all those things that are back to
myself I'll never get.
Speaker 1: I wish my fingers could do that on the guitar.
That is uh, that is so pretty. That is Prominade
and the band is Rabbits for Sale. They are here
with us, alive in studio, and yeah, that is that
is really nice. That's the kind of thing you can
just kind of close your eyes and get lost in.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 13: I just found them on Amazon Music to add them
to my playlist. I need to paint to this.
Speaker 5: Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: Excellent. Yeah, Jenny's also looking, always looking for music to
paint too.
Speaker 5: She's an artist and awesome. That's very cool.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I got a.
Speaker 5: Paint to that one.
Speaker 12: Boy.
Speaker 13: Actually, no, I really do enjoy you guys' music is
really great and I do put a lot of independent
artists in my playlist and I did just add you
for real.
Speaker 2: We do really appreciate it.
Speaker 8: Thank you very much.
Speaker 6: You know, you're always looking for you know, fans to
enjoy ourself, and we really appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Is it I'm curious about recording a song like that.
Is it challenging to really get that guitar sound exactly right?
Because it's to me, it's such an art when when
you hear that and you can you can hear everything
so clearly to the point where you can you can
hear the you know, the fingers moving on the fret board.
You know, I love that. Is that challenging to get
that right in the studio?
Speaker 3: I mean, fortunately for us, you know, Dave is a
you know, extremely experienced engineer, and like, you know, you
knew all the right stuff for Mike placement, how to
get that Yeah, all of everything that was coming from
here out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going from my guitar out to that.
Speaker 5: Do we do direct in and Mike? I think that's
what we did, right.
Speaker 3: I think we did like a scratch with directing, But
I don't think we ended up using it though. They
just use a mic then because when we plugged it in.
When plugging in an acoustic guitar, the electric with the
pickup doesn't always sound good, you know, it's always better
to get them wrong, you know.
Speaker 2: Recording with the mic, it's you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm always curious about that because I'm a bit
of a recording nerd, and I just I love when
I when I hear you know, because it doesn't you
know a lot of that that that specifically is something
that with the guitar that a lot of a lot
of times it's you have to be so precise about
how you do it to really to really capture it,
you know what I mean, to really do it justice
and uh and uh no, that that is that is
really really good. What should you know? We kind of
we kind of talked about it a little bit about uh,
trying to find you guys on Facebook, but what should
our audience know about how to find you guys online
to keep up with everything that you're doing, find your music.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so we have, you know, all, like the majority
at least of like the Class six socials, we have
an Instagram.
Speaker 5: It's Rapers Sale, Artificial.
Speaker 3: Right, Rabbits First Sale, Dot Official and Instagram. Instagram is
definitely the best one to follow. Yeah, it's the It's
definitely the best way to keep updated and everything. All

so we're kind of I think once maybe like September hits.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, we.
Speaker 5: Could say October for now and to see what happens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, super perfectionist about it.
Speaker 3: You know, we want the mixes to be perfect, so
you know, it's about getting the best quality content out
there for for our listeners.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 1: Oh absolutely absolutely. And oh one more thing, because you
guys were talking off air, is there a story?
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, Well then since you're the culprit for I
guess you should start caused this.
Speaker 8: Well, I don't think you want me to tell the
story because it might be biased coming from me.
Speaker 5: That's true, true, you want to start with first?
Speaker 8: Is the story for this happened while we were recording
the vocals.
Speaker 6: It was a guitar acoustic guitar guitar. No, I thought no,
because I remember I was I was playing guitar, and
I was really, well.
Speaker 1: Yeah you.
Speaker 2: All right away.
Speaker 8: But we were recording I'll Be Okay.
Speaker 13: So we we were recording the guitar for I'll Be Okay,
and Oliver is Uh was told, you know, just go
in the room start recording the bands, comes down and
announces that something's wrong to the toilet, it's broken or
something and so in a rush, Jet and Dave go
upstairs figure out the situation, and Oliver is just in
there recording the rest of the guitar and there's he
didn't know what was going on.
Speaker 1: So I walked out and I'm.
Speaker 8: Like, toilet, it was like quite that night.
Speaker 1: It was pretty. It was a lot of white.
Speaker 8: It started overflowing.
Speaker 1: It was quite.
Speaker 2: It was quite.
Speaker 5: The man I was in there recording the acoustic guitar part.
Speaker 6: I had no idea, So I'm just sitting in there
and I finished, and I'm still sitting in there like
what happened? And eventually Dave came down, like hit the
button to talk into the room and was like.
Speaker 5: Hey, everything's fine. The toilet kind of broke. Just just
do another pass, do another take. And I'm like all right.
Speaker 6: So both the guitar tracks, the acoustic guitar tracks were
both done in one take and they are doubled.
Speaker 5: So I think that the toilet kind of motivated me
to get it done quick.
Speaker 2: No, yeah, it was clean, you know, not like the toilet,
like the toilet clean.
Speaker 8: I want to say, I sure he did not go
number two?
Speaker 5: You didn't?
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was just I didn't. I just want to
clarify for okay, well.
Speaker 1: That does make a difference in a situation like that,
It does, It does make a very big difference. Well, good,
all right? Is the toilet been repaired since then? I
assume everything's all right, Everything is okay.
Speaker 5: We took it out of there. You know, he kind
of maybe charges for who knows, there's an extra charge
on there.
Speaker 1: It's very rock and roll though it is. There's nothing
more rock and roll than a broken toilet.
Speaker 3: Actually going to go down in the in the history
books broken toilet, Marco Hall of Fame.
Speaker 5: That's going to be that toilet.
Speaker 1: That's right, Yeah, yeah, right, yeah, you got to get
that story in there. That's awesome. That's awesome. All right,
And before we play this, uh, a song with a
title like potato Head, I feel like there might be
a story behind it, but I could be wrong.
Speaker 8: Is there a story behind I mean there's kind of
a story.
Speaker 1: Is it about an actual potato head?
Speaker 4: I mean no, but I guess in a sense, I
mean it's kind of like when you have potato heads,
just kind of like you get the eyes and the
eyes that maybe they're loft sided, and then you get
the mouth.
Speaker 5: From what you told me it's kind of about making
a perfect person, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's about making a perfect person. But oh okay,
kind of not realistic.
Speaker 6: Yeah, parts that are inspired by like real people that
we've met, you know, Like some lyrics, especially like the
first lyric your eyes are you know what it is,
But like some of them are inspired by people that
we actually know. So it's just like a conglomerate of
like trying to create like the ideal person and and
kind of like the unrealistic aspects of that as well.
Speaker 8: Okay, I think conglomerate.
Speaker 5: That's a big word for me.
Speaker 1: Conglomerate.
Speaker 5: H It's a good work, solid word.
Speaker 1: So we will end with this, but Rabbits for Sale, guys,

you so much for having absolutely and we'll do this
