00:02:53,759 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

71
00:02:54,039 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 1: So so Paper Jam So it's been around for three years,

72
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: you said two and a half two and a half years, okay,

73
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,479
Speaker 1: and it's gone through a bit of a transformation, right

74
00:03:02,479 --> 00:03:06,759
Speaker 1: because now so it had been uh, strictly paper, but

75
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: now it's also a digital magazine publication.

76
00:03:10,479 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 3: That's that's brand new as of about two weeks ago. Okay,

77
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,439
Speaker 3: we decided to do a digital version version because a

78
00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 3: lot of people were asking for it. Yeah and uh

79
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 3: so we took some time to think about it and

80
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 3: to make the decision. And I'm very happy with the

81
00:03:29,199 --> 00:03:32,759
Speaker 3: response that we received when people realized they could click

82
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,919
Speaker 3: the link, click and read the digital version. But the

83
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 3: paper copies are definitely not going away, right.

84
00:03:38,919 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: No, no, no, We'll definitely keep the papers.

85
00:03:41,319 --> 00:03:43,599
Speaker 4: That's what we're about, hence the name.

86
00:03:43,759 --> 00:03:45,719
Speaker 3: So now you can choose. Now you can choose. You

87
00:03:45,759 --> 00:03:49,639
Speaker 3: can get your paper copy or you can going forward

88
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 3: read a digital version.

89
00:03:51,199 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: So and by the way, so I suggest people check

90
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,479
Speaker 1: out paper jam magazine dot com. I'm looking at it

91
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: right now. And we were talking off air. I was

92
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: a compliment Sheila on her web design because I love

93
00:04:02,599 --> 00:04:04,479
Speaker 1: the website. It looks really good. And I'm a web

94
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,919
Speaker 1: design nerd and I'm very critical of websites and I

95
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,639
Speaker 1: see a lot of websites that aren't great. But this

96
00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: one's really good, and like I said, it's perfect for

97
00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:14,479
Speaker 1: what you're doing. So I suggest everyone check it out

98
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: now on the website are all the back issues on

99
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: the website. They are Oh wow, Okay, that must have

100
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 1: taken a while to that must have been a lot

101
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 1: of work, I would imagine to get all of that,

102
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: it was a lot of work. Yeah, absolutely absolutely. But

103
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,639
Speaker 1: so the paper version is not going away.

104
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 2: No.

105
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: Now that's what's interesting about that. So I'm really curious

106
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: about that. So when you decided to start Paper Jam,

107
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: and obviously, as you said, it's it's called so the name,

108
00:04:39,399 --> 00:04:44,639
Speaker 1: it's called that because it's a paper publication, did anybody

109
00:04:44,759 --> 00:04:46,639
Speaker 1: did anyone try to talk you out of it? And

110
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: the reason I ask that is because we live in

111
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,879
Speaker 1: an era where everything is where everything is digital, and

112
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: a lot of publications like newspapers and a lot of

113
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: magazines over the years, over the past twenty years, have

114
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,959
Speaker 1: have been gradually going away because they didn't find it

115
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,959
Speaker 1: to be a sustainable model, and some of them went away,

116
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: you know, some of those companies have gone away completely.

117
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: A lot of them now are strictly online. So I mean,

118
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,399
Speaker 1: did anyone say to you, wow, what? Because honestly, like,

119
00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: if I knew you before you started this, I probably

120
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,319
Speaker 1: and you talk to me about it, I probably would

121
00:05:22,319 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: have been like, I don't know, I would have been skeptical,

122
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, just as a business person,

123
00:05:26,879 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: you took the risk and you've obviously made it work.

124
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,519
Speaker 1: This is a success, and it's very impressive by the way,

125
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: And I was talking too about when Day to Attend

126
00:05:34,079 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: was here, and I'm I'm kind of flipping through the

127
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: issue that they were in, and I'm like, wow, this

128
00:05:38,439 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: is really there's a lot here, There's a lot.

129
00:05:41,319 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 3: It's always jam packed.

130
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,959
Speaker 1: So you've you've really made this work. But did anyone.

131
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,959
Speaker 1: I mean, I assume you had people who are skeptical,

132
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: people who are doubters, and you had to kind.

133
00:05:50,439 --> 00:05:54,439
Speaker 3: Of believe it or not. What's so interesting is maybe

134
00:05:54,439 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 3: that worked in our favor. Ye paper publications went away

135
00:05:57,879 --> 00:06:02,079
Speaker 3: because do you recall the era of of zines, Remember.

136
00:06:01,959 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 2: Zes where the whole idea.

137
00:06:04,199 --> 00:06:06,519
Speaker 3: That's where the whole idea came from.

138
00:06:06,759 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 5: I used to live in Massachusetts and I was you know,

139
00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:11,439
Speaker 5: I played in bands my whole life, and there was

140
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 5: a couple of scenes like the noise and stuff like that.

141
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: It was like a big deal if your band got

142
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 2: in there.

143
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, and it's you know something I still have

144
00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 5: to the stack and show, you know, my niece's and nephews.

145
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, look, I was actually in a magazine.

146
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, like you could walk into any

147
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: any music venue and see stacks of.

148
00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 5: Different all the different ones. Yeah, yeah, and they went

149
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 5: away just like you said. And so one night she

150
00:06:33,639 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 5: was an English major and I'm like, listen, this is

151
00:06:35,759 --> 00:06:37,199
Speaker 5: after a gig, is like two thirty in the morning.

152
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:38,319
Speaker 3: In the morning.

153
00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:41,519
Speaker 5: I'm like, you know, scenes used to be a big deal.

154
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 5: It's too bad that we have such a great music

155
00:06:44,639 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 5: scene and that doesn't exist anymore. Right, It's like we

156
00:06:48,079 --> 00:06:51,319
Speaker 5: should start our own magazine. And Tony, you love English

157
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,399
Speaker 5: and you love music.

158
00:06:52,399 --> 00:06:52,639
Speaker 2: You know.

159
00:06:52,879 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tony gets all the credit for coming up with

160
00:06:55,079 --> 00:06:59,319
Speaker 3: the idea. So this is the true story, right Tony.

161
00:06:59,519 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 3: So the next day I woke up, he woke up,

162
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 3: and I had already been to Staples and it made.

163
00:07:07,079 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: A mock up.

164
00:07:08,439 --> 00:07:10,959
Speaker 2: So yeah, and in like six hours he already had one.

165
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 3: And so what's so interesting? And So, to answer your question,

166
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:16,399
Speaker 3: did anyone try to talk us out of it or

167
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 3: encourage us to go a different route? No, in fact,

168
00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:21,519
Speaker 3: it caught on quickly.

169
00:07:21,639 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. We had actually a lot of support, good.

170
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 3: And so and so we tend to say that we're

171
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 3: old school in a lot of ways, and so we

172
00:07:28,959 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 3: liked the idea of bringing back zines, but making it

173
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:36,759
Speaker 3: more modern. Yeah, and so so everyone was really encouraging

174
00:07:36,839 --> 00:07:39,439
Speaker 3: right from the beginning. So maybe the fact that paper

175
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 3: publications went away worked in our favorite because here they

176
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 3: were coming back and people were really digging it.

177
00:07:45,839 --> 00:07:47,959
Speaker 1: There was it was like there was a void that

178
00:07:48,079 --> 00:07:50,519
Speaker 1: needed to be filled. Yeah, no one was doing it.

179
00:07:50,399 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 3: And and and so it was working out great.

180
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:53,279
Speaker 2: And we did.

181
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,639
Speaker 5: It's not really like a business per se, it's we

182
00:07:55,879 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 5: don't make money from it, yeah, and to make money

183
00:07:58,199 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 5: from it, yeah, the idea was just to give some

184
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,759
Speaker 5: support and recognition.

185
00:08:02,279 --> 00:08:04,399
Speaker 3: To the local band.

186
00:08:04,759 --> 00:08:06,319
Speaker 2: Yeah. It really is.

187
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 5: All the bands that you meet and talk to and

188
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,279
Speaker 5: many many more, they're all just real nice guys. So

189
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,199
Speaker 5: the idea was just sort of give back a little bit.

190
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,279
Speaker 5: You know, I play in bands, so I know what

191
00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 5: it's like.

192
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,399
Speaker 1: You know, do you play earlier?

193
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm in two bands.

194
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:20,839
Speaker 1: Oh what what bands?

195
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 5: I'm in the on Peg band out of Rochester and

196
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,959
Speaker 5: I'm in a band called p S out of Altam.

197
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,319
Speaker 1: Oh cool, cool, excellent, excellent. Yeah, so this is now

198
00:08:31,959 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: when it when it started, was the first issue like

199
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,039
Speaker 1: this where.

200
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,519
Speaker 3: No, it was very different, brought to Coveted first to

201
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:40,879
Speaker 3: show you.

202
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, for for those watching online, if you're

203
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,279
Speaker 1: watching on Facebook.

204
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,279
Speaker 3: Made it staples and I hand stapled it at my

205
00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 3: kitchen table and put them around town. This was how

206
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: it started.

207
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:52,519
Speaker 4: Eight pages.

208
00:08:52,799 --> 00:08:53,039
Speaker 1: Wow.

209
00:08:53,759 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 3: I had five hundred copies made and I hand stapled

210
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,399
Speaker 3: them at my kitchen table and then I drove them

211
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: around and that's how it started. The coveted first issue

212
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,759
Speaker 3: and it features our friend Wendy Gagnan Poor who says,

213
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,919
Speaker 3: meet the singer in three bands. But Wendy's in three bands,

214
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:12,879
Speaker 3: so I asked her to be on our first cover

215
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 3: and it took off from there. So eight pages turned

216
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:21,559
Speaker 3: into twelve, and twelve turned into sixteen. So I decided

217
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 3: I couldn't handstaple that many cops anymore. So I found

218
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 3: a local printer right in Rochester, who are fabulous, and

219
00:09:28,919 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 3: so the magazines are now printed by Lilac City Printing

220
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 3: in Rochester.

221
00:09:34,039 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 2: And they hate the name and and they gave.

222
00:09:36,519 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: Us the paper jam. Yeah, a printer's nightmare. Yeah, it was.

223
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 3: It was really funny because the printer took us back

224
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 3: and showed us this giant machine that they print the

225
00:09:46,759 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 3: magazines on, and they said, we we we really hate

226
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 3: it when we get a paper jam. It was really funny.

227
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,159
Speaker 3: But anyway, so it kept expanding and expanding, and.

228
00:09:58,639 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 5: Actually it started out quarter it was the idea oh okay,

229
00:10:02,759 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 5: and within I think the second issue if there was

230
00:10:06,279 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 5: so much clamor that, we were like, okay, we have

231
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,159
Speaker 5: to at least go bi monthly. Yeah, and so we've

232
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 5: been bi monthly ever since. So it's just been on

233
00:10:13,399 --> 00:10:15,279
Speaker 5: getting bigger more and.

234
00:10:15,399 --> 00:10:15,879
Speaker 4: We love it.

235
00:10:15,879 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 3: It's a lot of fun.

236
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: That's fantastic. Yeah. Yeah. Do you ever do you ever

237
00:10:20,399 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: have moments where you go, wow, this is uh, this

238
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: is a lot of work, Like I mean, I assume,

239
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: I mean, do you have do you have help with

240
00:10:27,919 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: or do you do this all yourselves?

241
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 5: That's all Sheila. Oh that's Sheila. I'm like a musical consultant. Yeah, yeah,

242
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 5: that's and she does all the really heavy living.

243
00:10:36,919 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 3: I say, Tony, what what type of gear? Did he

244
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 3: say that he plays? And that helps me with that.

245
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,799
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's all me for now. I could really

246
00:10:44,879 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 3: use some staff. Yeah, but I'm not complaining. It's it's

247
00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:52,799
Speaker 3: been a great thing and we have one of the

00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,279
Speaker 5: It's a lot of fun because it's really a lot

250
00:10:58,279 --> 00:10:59,919
Speaker 5: of fun. We have these bands come over the house.

255
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 5: kind of stuff. But it's just great to meet all

256
00:11:13,759 --> 00:11:15,639
Speaker 5: the people and we always spend a few hours with them.

257
00:11:15,759 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's always a good time.

258
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,080

259
00:11:21,159 --> 00:11:24,200

00:11:24,279 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 3: the R and R Lounge, right, Russo and Russo and

261
00:11:28,879 --> 00:11:30,759
Speaker 3: so you know, it kind of looks like a little

262
00:11:30,759 --> 00:11:33,799
Speaker 3: pub down there with a live jam space. So we

263
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 3: usually an interview, you know, the when the band arrives,

264
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,519
Speaker 3: we greet them outside, we bring them in and we

265
00:11:40,639 --> 00:11:42,879
Speaker 3: have some food and snacks. We give them a little

266
00:11:42,919 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 3: tour of the guitar lounge.

267
00:11:44,879 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: And then I have a guitar room.

268
00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 3: Okay, and then we start with the interview. And when

269
00:11:49,759 --> 00:11:52,159
Speaker 3: we start with like a speed round and we have

270
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,159
Speaker 3: some fun and there's usually a lot of laughs, great time.

271
00:11:55,879 --> 00:11:57,919
Speaker 1: So what's your process for the interview? Do you do

272
00:11:57,919 --> 00:11:59,639
Speaker 1: you record it? Do you record audio of it?

273
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:05,159
Speaker 3: And then I actually literally type, I type while they answer, kidd,

274
00:12:05,399 --> 00:12:05,639
Speaker 3: I do.

275
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 2: I type super fast fast?

276
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,919
Speaker 3: Yet I do type their answers as they're okayring the

277
00:12:14,039 --> 00:12:18,399
Speaker 3: questions and and then so I have not recorded any

278
00:12:18,639 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 3: of the interviews. However, that road we're gonna We're going

279
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 3: to start zoom interviews. On August eighteenth, we have our

280
00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:29,879
Speaker 3: first zoom interview. Because what happens is some of the

281
00:12:29,879 --> 00:12:32,519
Speaker 3: bands who want to be in paper Gam live two

282
00:12:32,639 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 3: or more hours away in New Hampshire. Yea uh, and

283
00:12:36,639 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 3: so I don't expect everyone to travel that far. So

284
00:12:41,159 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 3: I decided to start zoom interviews, and that comes with

285
00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:48,399
Speaker 3: the capability of recording. So then that's when I'll start recording.

286
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,799
Speaker 1: Okay, and then when you do that, will you will

287
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,279
Speaker 1: you post uh the video of that as kind of like, uh.

288
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 3: I hadn't thought I hadn't thought that far ahead. Yeah, expertly.

289
00:13:01,279 --> 00:13:02,879
Speaker 3: I think that'd be a lot of fun because.

290
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 5: Is always the inevitably somebody say something, Oh, don't put

291
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 5: that in don't put that.

292
00:13:06,799 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 2: In there right right?

293
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 5: Yeah.

294
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 3: We have this running joke that everybody says, strike that

295
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:12,759
Speaker 3: from the record don't.

296
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,039
Speaker 1: Put that, yeah, because I'm you know, I'm thinking that'd

297
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,799
Speaker 1: be a good you know, a good teaser to get

298
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,039
Speaker 1: you know, before the issue comes out. Put little little

299
00:13:21,039 --> 00:13:24,159
Speaker 1: clips on YouTube, Facebook and yeah, absolutely, And.

300
00:13:24,159 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 3: So some of the bands play when they come to

301
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 3: their interview in our in our jam space and some don't. Yeah,

302
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,159

00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, and sometimes we'll put some of that up yeah.

306
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:46,039
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. So oh that's amazing. Yeah, that's that's that's fantastic. Now,

307
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,879
Speaker 1: So what is the criteria in terms of artists who

308
00:13:49,879 --> 00:13:52,799
Speaker 1: are in Paper Jam? Do you do you focus on

309
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: New Hampshire or is it is.

310
00:13:57,519 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 2: New Hampshire.

311
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 5: We started out just trying to keep a local local

312
00:14:00,759 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 5: are like Rochester, Dover.

313
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,879
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, because we didn't you know.

314
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,639
Speaker 5: We don't have that much money to pay for you know,

315
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,039
Speaker 5: a million pages and it's a lot of work. So

316
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 5: we started out that way and as it's grown, more

317
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 5: and more people from further away are getting into it.

318
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 5: The whole idea though, is that there is we support

319
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:22,519
Speaker 5: any and all music, you know what I mean, There

320
00:14:22,519 --> 00:14:24,879
Speaker 5: are no I don't care if it's your first day

321
00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 5: playing guitar, or you've been playing for years, So all

322
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 5: level of music it is or it doesn't matter, and it.

323
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:35,279
Speaker 3: Doesn't matter if your country, pop, jazz, all levels, it's

324
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 3: all inclusive.

325
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, who is just to support everybody.

326
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 3: We are getting contacted by bands outside of New Hampshire's

327
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,799
Speaker 3: maybe been one of the more difficult parts is I

328
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,799
Speaker 3: don't want to say no to anybody. But at the

329
00:14:48,879 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 3: same time, there are so many local bands that I

330
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 3: still are on our list. So I have a list

331
00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: called bands in Line. Unfortunately there is a waiting list

332
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 3: and we're full through much of twenty twenty five.

333
00:15:02,879 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: Oh wow.

334
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, So so the bands have been roll patient and

335
00:15:06,559 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 3: understanding that they have to wait in a little bit

336
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 3: of a line.

337
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:09,559
Speaker 1: Yeah.

338
00:15:09,639 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 3: So that's a good problem to have, yeah, I think.

339
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: But when I start hearing from bands in other states,

340
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 3: that's when I have to kind of think about New

341
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 3: Hampshire based for now.

342
00:15:22,639 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because that's only gonna obviously as you you know,

343
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,279
Speaker 1: as you continue to grow, Uh, that'll that'll probably continue

344
00:15:30,279 --> 00:15:32,919
Speaker 1: to intensify, I would, right, and especially now with the

345
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: website too, you're gonna be probably probably already are hearing

346
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: from a lot more.

347
00:15:37,559 --> 00:15:39,759
Speaker 3: Yeap, Yes, it's a very busy mail box.

348
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

349
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:40,279
Speaker 1: Yeah.

350
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 2: That.

351
00:15:40,799 --> 00:15:43,039
Speaker 5: One of the things that Sheila came up with, because

352
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 5: we can't have all these bands from everywhere at this point,

353
00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 5: is that if they contact us and we can't necessarily

354
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 5: put them in, she does like a spotlight special on

355
00:15:52,879 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 5: the website and put something together for an advertisement something.

356
00:15:55,919 --> 00:15:56,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, I put.

357
00:15:56,399 --> 00:16:00,679
Speaker 3: Together a little video for them that way, pop it

358
00:16:00,759 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 3: up on our Facebook page so that they had a

359
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 3: bit so that they can be have a spotlight but

360
00:16:06,759 --> 00:16:09,159
Speaker 3: not necessarily end up in the pages of the magazine.

361
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:09,759
Speaker 1: Oh okay.

362
00:16:09,799 --> 00:16:10,039
Speaker 2: Yeah.

363
00:16:10,399 --> 00:16:13,159
Speaker 3: That was my way of sort of like not saying.

364
00:16:12,919 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: No, yeah, no, that's good. That's good. And tell me

365
00:16:17,279 --> 00:16:21,039
Speaker 1: about getting on the cover, Like is there in terms

366
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: of who gets on the cover, Like what is the

367
00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:26,919
Speaker 1: decision making process there? And is there a criteria like

368
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: when you put like obviously day to attend, you know,

369
00:16:29,519 --> 00:16:31,559
Speaker 1: they certainly deserve to be on the cover. And yes

370
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: they do. I'm so glad that you did that. But

371
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,039
Speaker 1: and I know they are too, because they you know,

372
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,759
Speaker 1: they speak very highly of paper jam and and what

373
00:16:37,799 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: you're doing. But like, how does that work? Getting on

374
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:41,679
Speaker 1: the cover?

375
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:47,919
Speaker 3: Getting on the cover. I think people believe it's because

376
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 3: we personally love that band the most, or that we

377
00:16:51,799 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 3: think they're better, or when in fact, it has not

378
00:16:55,919 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 3: very little to do with that. It has something to

379
00:16:57,639 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 3: do with that, because y'all know I love Day two Tense.

380
00:17:00,919 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 3: They're going on the cover.

381
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, But all of.

382
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 3: The bands that have been on the cover, and all

383
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,759
Speaker 3: of the bands that have been in the pages of

384
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,119
Speaker 3: Paper Gym, they're all equal to us. We don't play favorites. Yeah,

385
00:17:12,319 --> 00:17:17,039
Speaker 3: it's it actually boils down to mostly timing. Who who

386
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 3: reached out first, right, and I said, oh, I don't

387
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,640
Speaker 3: have anyone for my cover next month. Uh, And it's

388
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 3: a band that draws a big crowd, big following.

389
00:17:27,559 --> 00:17:30,519
Speaker 5: Another thing factor is if they have like a CD

390
00:17:30,839 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 5: just coming out.

391
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so.

392
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 3: If you've got a CD coming out, or if you

393
00:17:34,559 --> 00:17:36,759
Speaker 3: signed a you know, we had one band who signed

394
00:17:36,759 --> 00:17:40,880
Speaker 3: a production deal and they're on our cover. Vigil great

395
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:41,880
Speaker 3: metal band.

396
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:47,079
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, great guy. Yeah yeah. Craig and those

397
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 1: guys on the show. He hasn't been on for a

398
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 1: very long time, but he's yeah, he's been on. Yeah.

399
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 3: So really it's about timing. Who contacts us first. If

400
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 3: you know, if you contact me in January, I'm not

401
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,559
Speaker 3: going to make you wait. You know you you got

402
00:18:01,599 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 3: in first. So it's a combination of timing, what's what's new,

403
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,519
Speaker 3: what's in the news for you, what can we report on?

404
00:18:09,079 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 3: And also you know, who's Who's Who's a big band yea,

405
00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 3: but some of the other bands that have been in

406
00:18:16,759 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 3: the not on the cover are also cover worthy, And

407
00:18:20,519 --> 00:18:22,599
Speaker 3: we we had a saying where we're like, there's only

408
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 3: one cover and there's so many bands.

409
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: Well, I'm curious, I mean, is it ever a hard decision?

410
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 3: It is a hard decision bands like Middleman or Standard

411
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 3: Tuning or you know, bands like you know, they're fantastic

412
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 3: and we only have one cover.

413
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,319
Speaker 1: So yeah.

414
00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 5: Sometimes too, what we'll try and do is whether it's

415
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,680
Speaker 5: the issue, if it's a different issue before they're going

416
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 5: to be in it. Sometimes we'll give them the back cover.

417
00:18:47,519 --> 00:18:50,519
Speaker 5: Oh okay, so you know it's not the cover, but

418
00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 5: it's cover. So or if we're going to tease something,

419
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 5: you know, like a band coming in the next issue,

420
00:18:56,759 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 5: or we might put that on the back cover or

421
00:18:58,359 --> 00:18:59,039
Speaker 5: something like that.

422
00:19:00,039 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 3: So on the on the back cover of our day

423
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 3: to attend issue, you'll see it has Cathedral tribute to

424
00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:09,279
Speaker 3: Van Halen. Okay, so they're next on our cover.

425

Speaker 3: be happy to tell you.

457
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 4: What Zach told us.

458
00:20:34,799 --> 00:20:39,319
Speaker 5: Okay, He basically said, just use the word i'm sorry.

459
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 5: Be ready to say i'm sorry, right, you know, like

460
00:20:43,319 --> 00:20:44,839
Speaker 5: my wife's never going to leave it, so I just

461
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 5: say I'm sorry.

462
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:47,519
Speaker 1: It was really funny about it.

463
00:20:47,599 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 2: It was hilarious.

464
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:49,759
Speaker 5: And then he's like, so you say you're sorry, and

465
00:20:49,759 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 5: then just say do you want to go get some coffee?

466
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,319
Speaker 5: And you know, you go and just you know, that's

467
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 5: whatever problem it is to roll off your back right right.

468
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,799
Speaker 3: Basically, and he said, go go have a coffee, move on,

469
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 3: have a happy life.

470
00:21:03,079 --> 00:21:04,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he wrote that all.

471
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 3: He wrote it on the guitar case.

472
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,839

00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:12,960

00:21:27,319 --> 00:21:29,319
Speaker 4: he was six, his sixteenth.

481
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 6: Birthday present was surprise tickets to VIP tickets to the

482
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,559
Speaker 6: Black Label Society concert here in Manchester.

483
00:21:35,599 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 4: It was awesome. Yeah, awesome, he told Jesse. I was

484
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:38,319
Speaker 4: really then.

485
00:21:38,319 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 6: He had a really cool mom, so I was like

486
00:21:40,079 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 6: really excited about that.

487
00:21:41,319 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: When they were at it mustn't it was soil the

488
00:21:43,319 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: Rizing Center then, right was that yeah? Snow? Yeah?

489
00:21:46,519 --> 00:21:50,519
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, no, it wasn't snow back then, yeah, back then, listen,

490
00:21:52,079 --> 00:21:54,519
Speaker 6: but it was an amazing concert. It was an amazing

491
00:21:54,599 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 6: it was. It was definitely worth it a hundred percent.

492
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 6: And I think the money from the VIP was going

493
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,279
Speaker 6: to a children's hospital or something like that.

494
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 4: It wasn't. The band wasn't keeping it. It was all

495
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 4: getting donated.

496
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,319
Speaker 6: I'm not surprised by Yeah, no, it doesn't surprise me

497
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 6: at all either.

498
00:22:10,599 --> 00:22:14,079
Speaker 4: But that made it even more sweet to do the VIP, knowing.

499
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 6: Where the when he was going. Oh yeah, yeah no.

500
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,279
Speaker 6: It was an incredible concert. Definitely great memory. I still

501
00:22:19,279 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 6: wear my t shirt.

502
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,839
Speaker 1: Now, So Tony, I'm curious when when you're you know,

503
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 1: obviously you're in a couple of bands. I assume you're

504
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,839
Speaker 1: out playing a lot of shows. Do do do people

505
00:22:30,839 --> 00:22:33,559
Speaker 1: from other bands ever try to kind of lean on you, like, hey,

506
00:22:33,559 --> 00:22:35,559
Speaker 1: get us into Paper Jam, Oh yeah, get us on

507
00:22:35,559 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: the cover. We want to be on the cover, like.

508
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:42,279
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, all the time, and the answer is always yes,

509
00:22:42,279 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 5: we'll get you in there.

510
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:43,319
Speaker 1: Yeah.

511
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,880
Speaker 2: Well I don't know exactly when, but yeah.

512
00:22:46,079 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 5: We don't really say no to anybody, and it's just

513
00:22:49,759 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 5: again a matter of timing that. One of the coolest

514
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 5: parts for me about all this is that, you know,

515
00:22:54,279 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 5: meeting all these guys from all these different bands.

516
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:58,559
Speaker 2: You know, I'm one of them.

517
00:22:58,759 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, and so we out, we see them, these bands play,

518
00:23:01,759 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 5: We get to meet everybody. But then I see faces

519
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,759
Speaker 5: that from the other band's showing up see me play,

520
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 5: which is always you know, it's it's again comes back

521
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 5: to just an awesome community. But it's really cool when

522
00:23:13,519 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 5: I see people that I've met through Paper Jam out

523
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 5: in the crowd, I'm like, oh, you get to see

524
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 5: me play now?

525
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:20,079
Speaker 2: Cool? Thanks? You know.

526
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: You know what else is.

527
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 3: Really cool is when Tony's playing a show or we

528
00:23:25,079 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 3: go to a show and we look out in the

529
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,519
Speaker 3: crowd and there's always a handful of people in a

530
00:23:29,559 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 3: paper Jam shirt or a paper Jam hat, or or

531
00:23:32,839 --> 00:23:35,880
Speaker 3: they're walking around picking up the issue because we leave

532
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 3: them at the music venues. Usually when we go to

533
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,279
Speaker 3: see a show, we bring copies with us.

534
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 4: The venues are so.

535
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,039
Speaker 3: So cool, gracious and cool to let us put them there,

536
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 3: and so we have a lot of drop sites around,

537
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 3: but I definitely like the music venues, and so we

538
00:23:52,759 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 3: bring copies and see these strangers wearing a shirt or

539
00:23:56,039 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 3: reading the magazine, and it's a pretty good feeling. And

540
00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 3: then the next thing you know, you see them at

541
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,799
Speaker 3: you see him again, and I don't know, We've met

542
00:24:01,839 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 3: so many great people through this.

543
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:06,279
Speaker 5: It's oh, it's hilarious because some of the people will

544
00:24:06,319 --> 00:24:08,319
Speaker 5: send pictures, Oh, I'm in Mexico at the beach and

545
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 5: where they're wearing their paper.

546
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, we have this we have around the world,

547
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,799
Speaker 3: the paper We have this thing whereas where is paper Jam.

548
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,319
Speaker 3: So when they when they travel, they send me a

549
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,039
Speaker 3: pic in their shirts and tell me where they're where

550
00:24:21,079 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 3: they're from, somewhere in the world.

551
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: Very cool, kind of fun, very cool. How do people

552
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,599
Speaker 1: get the shirts. Do they order them online or you can?

553
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 3: We have men's and ladies shirts, and just got some tank.

557
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,039
Speaker 1: assume that's grown over this, it has grown.

558
00:24:43,079 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 3: I think we started with like, you know, six seven, eight,

559
00:24:45,839 --> 00:24:50,759
Speaker 3: and now I believe there's over thirty. And I think,

560
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 3: you know, definitely want to give a shout out to

Speaker 1: Yeah, Jenny loves the stickers.

639
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:25,599
Speaker 3: Yeah.

640
00:28:25,599 --> 00:28:27,599
Speaker 1: You can see on if you're watching live on Facebook,

641
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:28,799
Speaker 1: you can see Jenny's.

642
00:28:28,599 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 6: That's just one part of my laptop. They're on the

643
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,599
Speaker 6: bottom too. Yeah, they're on everything. I'm a sticker.

644
00:28:34,039 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: Jenny's got a lot of stickers.

645
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 6: Jesse, he inherited that from me too. He's he's now

646
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,279
Speaker 6: stickering up his guitar case.

647
00:28:39,599 --> 00:28:41,119
Speaker 4: Oh okay, on a mission.

648
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,839
Speaker 3: Speaking of the stickers, when the bands come for their interviews,

649
00:28:46,279 --> 00:28:49,519
Speaker 3: they bring so much merch and they're so generous and

650
00:28:49,559 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 3: so we too ended up with a large pile of

651
00:28:53,599 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 3: band stickers, which we love. I was trying to think

652
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,119
Speaker 3: what to do with them. So we went out and

653
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 3: we bought like this huge poster board and we made

654
00:29:02,079 --> 00:29:06,279
Speaker 3: like a wall of stickers that great, so we filled it,

655
00:29:06,279 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 3: so I got to start a new one. But they

656
00:29:08,759 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 3: bring us all kinds of great, great thing CD shirts.

657
00:29:12,759 --> 00:29:13,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, and.

658
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 4: It's fantastic.

659
00:29:16,279 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: We used to have something like that in the old

660
00:29:17,759 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: studio because we've we've only been here when did we

661
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: move here October November of last year. But when we

662
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,519
Speaker 1: were in our when W. M and H was on

663
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: our Elm Street location, we had a wall where you know,

664
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: you could put stickers sign it and but uh, but

665
00:29:31,599 --> 00:29:33,799
Speaker 1: now that we're in this nice new place, is really

666
00:29:33,839 --> 00:29:37,119
Speaker 1: not not a place for that. You know, if somebody

667
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: pulled out a sharpie and signed the wall here, I'd

668
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: get fired. But we but we had a Yeah, we

669
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,839
Speaker 1: had a really cool thing where you know, you could

670
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,559
Speaker 1: do that. But no, that's a great idea though.

671
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,599
Speaker 5: The Rochester Opera House is cool about that in the

672
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,079
Speaker 5: back back part of the stage. Yeah, all the bands

673
00:29:51,079 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 5: that have played there get to sign it. Yeah, right, yeah,

674
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 5: and a lot of the venues will have something like that. Yes,

675
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,519
Speaker 5: you know, we'll have a sticker, you know. Oh yeah,

676
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,559
Speaker 5: stick it's always a fight bands again.

677
00:30:03,599 --> 00:30:04,759
Speaker 2: I'm gonna put my sticker over there.

678
00:30:05,599 --> 00:30:07,359
Speaker 1: I used to see that a lot in Boston, like

679
00:30:07,359 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: when I was really active promoting live shows. I would

680
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: see that at a lot of the Boston venues, and

681
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of them still have it where

682
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: it just you know, just covered in stickers, you know,

683
00:30:16,519 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: going back decades, you know, and you could kind of

684
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:20,839
Speaker 1: you could kind of look at it and try to

685
00:30:20,839 --> 00:30:22,599
Speaker 1: pick out Oh wow, I remember that band, and I

686
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:23,039
Speaker 1: remember that.

687
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 2: Do you remember Sarah Morgan's cove inster.

688
00:30:27,279 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: It sounds familiar.

689
00:30:28,279 --> 00:30:30,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're playing the fameous The Rolling Stones played there

690
00:30:30,759 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 5: once and Narrow anyways, it was.

691
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:35,279
Speaker 2: It was a cool place. It's gone now, like many

692
00:30:35,319 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 2: of them unfortunately.

693
00:30:36,279 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

694
00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah, Middle East Ts, all those places, they

695
00:30:39,519 --> 00:30:41,359
Speaker 5: all had stuff like that.

696
00:30:41,599 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of places come and go. Now. So

697
00:30:46,039 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: do you ever feature anyone, or have you ever featured

698
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 1: anyone in the publication who's not necessarily a musician but

699
00:30:50,799 --> 00:30:53,359
Speaker 1: is doing something else, like maybe someone who owns the

700
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:54,279
Speaker 1: venue or.

701
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a great question. We actually, in addition to

702
00:30:57,839 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 3: UH band interviews, we also spotlight articles and there's a

703
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 3: website for female drummers called Drummer Girls United. I think

704
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 3: it has about seven thousand female drummer members and from

705
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 3: that site, I have interviewed separately three female drummers, so

706
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,599
Speaker 3: we did spotlight on them, and then we've also done

707
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 3: a spotlight on a few venues that feature live music,

708
00:31:25,319 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 3: and I love to do spotlight articles. In the next issue,

709
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 3: there'll be one with Scott from Big Hit Guitars that

710
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 3: we mentioned previously, spotlight his new guitar shop. Because it's fantastic.

711
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:39,319
Speaker 2: It's bad for me because it's too.

712
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 3: We tried the magazine. We try to include band interviews,

713
00:31:44,359 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 3: and then we try to include some music related articles,

714
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:53,599
Speaker 3: maybe about gear or how to promote your CD, songwriting lyrics,

715
00:31:53,599 --> 00:31:56,279
Speaker 3: that kind of thing, and then we have the spotlight articles,

716
00:31:56,279 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 3: which are generally shorter, and then we also add in

717
00:32:01,319 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 3: some jokes and some trivia and some fun stuff and seem.

718
00:32:07,079 --> 00:32:07,759
Speaker 4: To like it.

719
00:32:07,839 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's a good time.

720
00:32:09,759 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 1: Do you have do you have a number of is like,

721
00:32:13,119 --> 00:32:14,839
Speaker 1: is there a number of artists that you try to

722
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,559
Speaker 1: have in every is there like a minimum threshold of

723
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,039
Speaker 1: artists that you try to have in each issue.

724
00:32:19,119 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 3: They started with two per issue, and it went and

725
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 3: it went to three, and now in this day to

726
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,119
Speaker 3: attend issue there's four bands. Yeah, but we did four

727
00:32:27,839 --> 00:32:31,759
Speaker 3: full interviews. Yeah, And when it comes to the interviews,

728
00:32:32,079 --> 00:32:35,359
Speaker 3: we try to find an angle. When the band arrives

729
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,119
Speaker 3: and we get situated, I let them know, like, as

730
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 3: we talk through this interview, I need to find an

731
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,839
Speaker 3: angle for your band, because otherwise it's all going to

732
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 3: sound the same, right, So I often ask tell me

733
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,279
Speaker 3: about your background, what's your experience, how'd you learn to

734
00:32:50,319 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 3: play music?

735
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 4: Or I'll say, uh, what venues.

736
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:54,319
Speaker 1: Have you played?

737
00:32:54,519 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 3: Or who influenced you? All of those questions are often

738
00:32:59,559 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 3: the same for every band, but it would all start

739
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 3: to sound alike if we didn't find an angle, right,

740
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: And luckily there always seems to be one, which is

741
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,039
Speaker 3: some band is you know, one band's coming out with

742
00:33:10,079 --> 00:33:12,759
Speaker 3: a new album, or one band is brand new on

743
00:33:12,839 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 3: the scene and they're trying to make a name for themselves.

744
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 3: That's their angle, the new band on the scene. Or

745
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 3: there's a band that's you know, all females, or there's

746
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 3: a band that's made up of teenagers, like a band

747
00:33:27,519 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 3: we featured in the Day to Attend issue. Tom Syracuse's daughter,

748
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,599
Speaker 3: Hannah Rose, is fifteen and she's a fabulous drummer and

749
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:40,119
Speaker 3: she's in bands, and so we featured her in there

750
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,759
Speaker 3: as well. So we try to find the angle so

751
00:33:43,799 --> 00:33:46,599
Speaker 3: that it all doesn't sound the same. Hopefully it's working.

752
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:51,519
Speaker 1: Do you have prior experience interviewing or working in pr

753
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,599
Speaker 1: because what you just said, not everyone knows that. And

754
00:33:55,599 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: it's evidence that not everyone knows that because you'll see

755
00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: a lot of people who do interviews who do that

756
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 1: just asked the same old questions where are you from?

757
00:34:02,759 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, where are you from?

758
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,839
Speaker 1: What kind of music do you play? You know? So

759
00:34:06,839 --> 00:34:08,800
Speaker 1: so to know that, I mean, is that just something

760
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: you knew instinctively or do you have prior experience?

761
00:34:11,079 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 3: I don't have prior experience in interviewing or or anything

762
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,079
Speaker 3: like that. But but I've always been a writer, okay,

763
00:34:18,159 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 3: and so I like, I have a book of short

764
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,039
Speaker 3: stories of written novels, Like I I've always been a writer.

765
00:34:25,559 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 3: So I think from that I learned some of that

766
00:34:29,599 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 3: some of you know, yeah.

767
00:34:30,679 --> 00:34:32,559
Speaker 1: Because it was obvious, like looking like looking at the

768
00:34:32,599 --> 00:34:35,039
Speaker 1: day to attend article. It was like, okay, you know

769
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 1: how to interview because not everyone does, a lot of

770
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 1: people try and they don't really know how to do it.

771
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:40,639
Speaker 2: Does a great job.

772
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:42,679
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, I'm just sort of like the comedic value,

773
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,039
Speaker 5: you know, comedic value to the whole.

774
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,360
Speaker 1: Thing right right.

775
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 3: Now, another part of another thing put out the snacks, Well,

776
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 3: somebody asked you.

777
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,039
Speaker 1: So.

778
00:34:59,039 --> 00:34:59,119
Speaker 2: So.

779
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,199
Speaker 3: Another thing that interesting about the articles is that some

780
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 3: of them are written in a question and answer format,

781
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:10,119
Speaker 3: and other articles are written, you know, just straight out

782
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:15,559
Speaker 3: like about the band versus questioning and so someone asked

783
00:35:15,559 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 3: me one time, like, how do you decide you know,

784
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,599
Speaker 3: and I just said, it depends on the feel of

785
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 3: the band, what we're going to talk about. Some bands

786
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,760
Speaker 3: feel more like a question and answer type interview. I

787
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 3: can't really say why.

788
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:29,800
Speaker 2: It just it's a.

789
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,639
Speaker 3: Feeling and it depends on the angle we want to

790
00:35:32,679 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 3: talk about. So, and then I love to get the

791
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,760
Speaker 3: poll quotes. I call them. The poll quotes are inevitably,

792
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 3: someone during the interview will say something profound or interesting

793
00:35:43,079 --> 00:35:45,639
Speaker 3: that stands out to me, and I'll make a little

794
00:35:45,679 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 3: note like this would make a great poll quote. And

795
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,559
Speaker 3: then as you flip through the pages of paper Jam

796
00:35:50,639 --> 00:35:53,039
Speaker 3: you'll see a lot of that, Like you'll see a

797
00:35:53,079 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 3: band member's photo and then usually like a great quote

798
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,199
Speaker 3: that they gave us. And so I'm kind of fortunate

799
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,519
Speaker 3: because the band make it easy for us. They have

800
00:36:01,599 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 3: so much to say and and they're great.

801
00:36:04,559 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 1: Is there anyone who's really surprised you? I mean, I'm

802
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,199
Speaker 1: sure there are, like who you interviewed them and they

803
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 1: wound up being way more interesting than you expected, Like

804
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,639
Speaker 1: they just had a backstory that really maybe when in

805
00:36:18,679 --> 00:36:19,639
Speaker 1: a direction you weren't.

806
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,679
Speaker 5: Expect all the time, Almost every time, really some sort

807
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 5: of surprise that you like, even day two attend those

808
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 5: guys again wickednized guys, but they all pulled together from

809
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 5: all these different situations they were in over a long

810
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,679
Speaker 5: period of time. And you know, it's just but almost

811
00:36:36,679 --> 00:36:39,639
Speaker 5: every band gives us some sort of we didn't expect that,

812
00:36:40,159 --> 00:36:42,519
Speaker 5: which is really cool. Yeah, and you find out somebody

813
00:36:42,679 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 5: was like, oh, I was an opera singer. I didn't

814
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,840
Speaker 5: didn't see that one coming right right right, you know,

815
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,679
Speaker 5: and stuff like that. So it's always it's always an

816
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 5: interesting time.

817
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,079
Speaker 1: And isn't that one of them? Like I feel like

818
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 1: for me as as someone who interviews people. That's like

819
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 1: one of the best things I love when somebody says

820
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,119
Speaker 1: something to me I complete he wasn't expecting, or they

821
00:37:01,159 --> 00:37:03,559
Speaker 1: reveal something about me that just like, wow, I didn't

822
00:37:03,559 --> 00:37:06,559
Speaker 1: see that coming. That just makes it so much more rewarding,

823
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:07,639
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.

824
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 3: I'll have to say that one of the questions I

825
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 3: like to ask is do you have any hobbies or

826
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 3: interests outside of music? Because they're all here to talk

827
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,119
Speaker 3: about their instruments and their music and experience. But sometimes

828
00:37:18,119 --> 00:37:20,559
Speaker 3: I'm just curious to know what do you like to

829
00:37:20,599 --> 00:37:23,599
Speaker 3: do when you're not doing music. And that's where it

830
00:37:23,639 --> 00:37:26,320
Speaker 3: really gets interesting because you find out that, you know,

831
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:33,119
Speaker 3: some people are a professional chef or some people mm a, yeah, yeah,

832
00:37:33,159 --> 00:37:35,599
Speaker 3: and so and so it's been really interesting to hear

833
00:37:35,639 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 3: what they like to do outside of music. Yeah, to

834
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:42,280
Speaker 3: really get to know them, and that that surprises me. Sometimes.

835
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,559
Speaker 3: We had one we had one band member who told

836
00:37:45,599 --> 00:37:48,519
Speaker 3: me he's made over five hundred or eight hundred I

837
00:37:48,559 --> 00:37:51,679
Speaker 3: forget a very high number of sky dive jumps.

838
00:37:52,079 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 1: Kidding.

839
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 3: That was uh, that was Scott I think from from Stiletto.

840
00:37:58,599 --> 00:37:59,119
Speaker 2: Yeah.

841
00:37:59,159 --> 00:38:00,599
Speaker 1: Well, you know what I think is R two about

842
00:38:00,599 --> 00:38:04,079
Speaker 1: your approaches. It kind of I think it probably uh

843
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,559
Speaker 1: snaps them out of because I I mean, I can

844
00:38:07,639 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 1: kind of tell, and I'm sure you can too, when

845
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 1: someone comes into an interview and they're sort of they

846
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,039
Speaker 1: have an expectation of what they're going to be asked,

847
00:38:14,079 --> 00:38:16,679
Speaker 1: and they've kind of already done the interview in their

848
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:21,199
Speaker 1: own mind, you know, So it's not you know some musicians.

849
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I know from my experience sometimes I'll interview

850
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,679
Speaker 1: someone and they seem really spontaneous and like they're fully engaged.

851
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,079
Speaker 1: And some people, you know, you can kind of tell

852
00:38:30,159 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 1: where like I said, they've already done the interview in

853
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 1: their brain. Yeah, they're just kind of giving you the

854
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,119
Speaker 1: answers to the questions that they're already expecting to hear.

855
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,039
Speaker 1: So if you can pull them out of their shell

856
00:38:39,639 --> 00:38:42,079
Speaker 1: by asking them something sort of outside of that, yeah,

857
00:38:42,679 --> 00:38:43,519
Speaker 1: that's a great technique.

858
00:38:43,599 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 3: We start with the speed round. We just throw out

859
00:38:46,039 --> 00:38:48,519
Speaker 3: questions and just to break the ice, we say like

860
00:38:48,599 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 3: Megan X or Metallica, cats are dogs, you know, Bendor Gibson,

861
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 3: and and then and then mountains or lakes.

862
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,639
Speaker 2: You know, and.

863
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, and then once we get through.

864
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:05,519
Speaker 2: Tattoos are piercings.

865
00:39:06,119 --> 00:39:09,159
Speaker 1: You know, Jeff from day to attend says in the chat,

866
00:39:09,199 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: it's amazing how Sheila compiles all that info into the

867
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:12,760
Speaker 1: amazing articles.

868
00:39:13,159 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 4: Thank you, Jeff.

869
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,320
Speaker 1: How long does that take? I mean it probably varies

870
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,639
Speaker 1: wildly from one to the next, but I mean.

871
00:39:18,599 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 3: It takes a long time. Yeah, it's pretty much a

872
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 3: full time job outside of my regular full time.

873
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, the second month because we have two months, just

874
00:39:27,519 --> 00:39:28,079
Speaker 5: two months.

875
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:28,320
Speaker 2: To do it.

876
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, and so trying to get all the interviews, and

877
00:39:30,559 --> 00:39:33,599
Speaker 5: inevitably a lot of the interviews happened in the second month,

878
00:39:34,079 --> 00:39:36,519
Speaker 5: So the last two three weeks of that month, it's

879
00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:39,639
Speaker 5: like was like, yeah, work on it, and she's always

880
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,679
Speaker 5: the computer and you know, just busting a cute little

881
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,679
Speaker 5: bum there to uh to finish it up.

882
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,199
Speaker 1: Does it come out the same day of the month.

883
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 3: It comes out at the beginning of you know, it's

884
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,559
Speaker 3: bi monthly, so it'll come out early in the in

885
00:39:54,599 --> 00:39:58,119
Speaker 3: the new month, Okay, but it's not always the same day. Yeah,

886
00:39:58,199 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 3: you know, I don't think the printers open on the weekend,

887
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,280
Speaker 3: so sometimes we have to wait till Monday.

888
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

889
00:40:03,039 --> 00:40:05,039
Speaker 5: Then of course driving it around and we both have

890
00:40:05,119 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 5: day jobs, so yeah, you know, just trying to find

891
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 5: the time to go distribute it and so forth. So

892
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 5: usually within a few days of the beginning of the month.

893
00:40:12,199 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

894
00:40:12,639 --> 00:40:15,199
Speaker 3: Another thing that we do that people may not realize

895
00:40:15,599 --> 00:40:21,039
Speaker 3: is that once the issue's done, so to speak, I always,

896
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 3: I always do proofs from the printer. So I go

897
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,159
Speaker 3: pick up a black and white and a color proof,

898
00:40:28,079 --> 00:40:30,079
Speaker 3: and I go over it page by page to make

899
00:40:30,119 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 3: sure that the colors translate well. Yeah, and it looks

900
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,159
Speaker 3: good in black and white, looks good in color. Make

901
00:40:35,199 --> 00:40:36,760
Speaker 3: sure there's no spelling mistakes.

902
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:37,639
Speaker 1: Yeah.

903
00:40:37,679 --> 00:40:42,599
Speaker 3: And as a grammar nazi, I really have made typos before,

904
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,119
Speaker 3: and I didn't sleep for a week because I just

905
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 3: don't want to make typos in my magazine. But it happens.

906
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:49,760
Speaker 3: We're all human. Yeah, But I try to go through

907
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 3: it and check the colors and the layout and make

908
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 3: sure it's all looking good, and before we hit what

909
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 3: I call the go button. But once I look at

910
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,599
Speaker 3: the proofs, then we hit the go button and and

911
00:40:59,599 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 3: and then the printer does their thing.

912
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know what you mean about grammar. I'm the

913
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 1: same way, right, You're the same way.

914
00:41:04,679 --> 00:41:07,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I think I did one issue where I

915
00:41:07,079 --> 00:41:11,079
Speaker 3: said something about metal mayhem and I misspelled mayhem and

916
00:41:11,119 --> 00:41:13,159
Speaker 3: I didn't catch it, and it still bothers me.

917
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,199
Speaker 1: I would be I would be the same way in

918
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,159
Speaker 1: that situation, Like I I even I'm I mean, I'm

919
00:41:18,519 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 1: I'm at the point where I'm horrified if I see

920
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,400
Speaker 1: something I posted on social media and I realize I'm

921
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,679
Speaker 1: expelled something. Yeah, and I'll go back and corrected, And

922
00:41:25,679 --> 00:41:32,679
Speaker 1: most people wouldn't bother because it's just social media. But yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

923
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 1: very cool. Oh we should mention too, So if you're
