00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Voice of the color analyst from the KOA broadcast team

2
00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:06.839
<v Speaker 1>for the I don't know what I'm trying to say

3
00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:08.839
<v Speaker 1>here the Denver Broncos. You hear him on the radio

4
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:11.480
<v Speaker 1>with Dave Logan. He's rick Lewis. Welcome, Rick, don't try

5
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:13.599
<v Speaker 1>that on your show, Rick, I'm a trained professional.

6
00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that was kind of a wonky introduction. Yeah, you

7
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:21.960
<v Speaker 2>know what I did. Hear the beginning of your show

8
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.679
<v Speaker 2>and your blog and you said, rick Lewis plays around

9
00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:26.719
<v Speaker 2>with black culture.

10
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:30.239
<v Speaker 1>That is not what I said.

11
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:34.359
<v Speaker 2>I said, no, No, what are we going to talk about?

12
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:37.560
<v Speaker 1>What I should say, rick Lewis is playing around? Is

13
00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:40.679
<v Speaker 1>what I said. Rick Lewis is playing around. That's the headline.

14
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.719
<v Speaker 1>And then but to the next headline, does black culture

15
00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 1>embrace vials? Okay, maybe I just put a little comma

16
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:50.000
<v Speaker 1>in their little pause so people will know I was

17
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:52.280
<v Speaker 1>just telling a rod I was telling off the air.

18
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:57.000
<v Speaker 1>The Rick Lewis project is so flipping good. You guys

19
00:00:57.679 --> 00:01:01.159
<v Speaker 1>absolutely cook when you were on stage, and I want

20
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>everybody to go see you guys play. So what are

21
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:06.519
<v Speaker 1>you guys doing exactly at the Little Bear tomorrow night

22
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:07.239
<v Speaker 1>in Evergreen.

23
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:10.920
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate those kind comments. Thank you, Mandy.

24
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:13.400
<v Speaker 1>And it's the rest of the people in your band.

25
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:14.120
<v Speaker 1>They're amazing.

26
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:18.239
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, they're all better than me, are you kidding? Yeah,

27
00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:22.239
<v Speaker 2>this is one of Colorado's premier bands. I've got the

28
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:25.239
<v Speaker 2>top talent around and as I just said, every one

29
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>of them's a better musician than I am. We are

30
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:32.239
<v Speaker 2>going to play a benefit tomorrow night at the Little Bear,

31
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:36.680
<v Speaker 2>the legendary Little Bear in Evergreen, and proceeds will go

32
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:41.640
<v Speaker 2>to Evergreen Strong. So all the ticket proceeds, this is

33
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:44.519
<v Speaker 2>a ticket to show any silent auction and by the way,

34
00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:48.319
<v Speaker 2>I want to thank the Broncos. They donated a really

35
00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:52.599
<v Speaker 2>cool sign Zach Allen Jersey to be a part of

36
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:57.079
<v Speaker 2>that silent auction. And it's basically a night of music

37
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:01.959
<v Speaker 2>and healing the Evergreen community still reeling from what happened

38
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:04.560
<v Speaker 2>a couple of weeks ago, insych The kids just got

39
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.040
<v Speaker 2>back to school, Yeah, within the last couple of days.

40
00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:09.759
<v Speaker 2>So come on out tomorrow night, Little Bear and Evergreen.

41
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:13.960
<v Speaker 2>Showtime is six and my band will start at eight,

42
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:17.479
<v Speaker 2>And get your tickets at Little Bear live dot com.

43
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>And if people have never been to the Little Bear,

44
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:22.800
<v Speaker 1>it is a great place to see a band. I mean,

45
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:26.199
<v Speaker 1>it's just the vibe is cool, the space is cool.

46
00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:29.240
<v Speaker 1>It does get crowded. So I would say, if people

47
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:31.719
<v Speaker 1>are planning on going, get your tickets. I mean, wouldn't

48
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:34.080
<v Speaker 1>you think this probably could sell out? Don't you think.

49
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm expecting it too, and so are they. Yeah, so

50
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:40.319
<v Speaker 2>I would definitely try to get your tickets ahead of

51
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:44.000
<v Speaker 2>time if you can. Yeah, there's GA tickets, and then

52
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:49.199
<v Speaker 2>there's some VIP tables and I think maybe the VIP tables.

53
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:51.879
<v Speaker 1>I think they're sold out. I looked earlier today and

54
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I think those are sold out. I can't go. I

55
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:57.479
<v Speaker 1>have a volunteer commitment that I am I'm going to

56
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:00.560
<v Speaker 1>be doing tomorrow night, so I can't make it. But

57
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:03.439
<v Speaker 1>I just you know, Rick, there's a lot of in

58
00:03:03.479 --> 00:03:08.199
<v Speaker 1>my radio career, I have worked with multiple radio personalities

59
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.199
<v Speaker 1>who had always dreamed of being in a band, and

60
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:13.039
<v Speaker 1>they all learned how to play drums. And I'm not

61
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:14.599
<v Speaker 1>even making this up. So they all learned how to

62
00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:16.680
<v Speaker 1>play drums because I think it seems the most successible,

63
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:18.759
<v Speaker 1>and then they would all put bands together and they

64
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:21.879
<v Speaker 1>were perfectly fine, right, They were nothing wrong with them.

65
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:22.479
<v Speaker 2>You know.

66
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:26.240
<v Speaker 1>It was just like a vanity project for that radio personality.

67
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:30.599
<v Speaker 1>But your band truly is outstanding, and I just that's different.

68
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:32.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't want people to think this is a vanity

69
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>project and Rick won't just absolutely rock the house because

70
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>he and his band are so good, so good, so

71
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:39.919
<v Speaker 1>well done, is what I'm saying.

72
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:43.800
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, thank you. Yeah, there's a lot of talent

73
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:47.599
<v Speaker 2>in the band. I think I have probably the two

74
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:52.479
<v Speaker 2>best guitar players around, certainly the best lead vocalist in

75
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:58.520
<v Speaker 2>Sarah hornebook. Yeh, he's incredible, A great percussionist, great bass player. Yeah,

76
00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:01.080
<v Speaker 2>it's loaded with talent. We've been doing this for a

77
00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:03.280
<v Speaker 2>long time, Mandy. We played a lot of big gage.

78
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:06.319
<v Speaker 2>We played all the big venues around here, Red Rocks

79
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:10.599
<v Speaker 2>and Ball Arena, Fiddler's Green. So the band's been around

80
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>for a while. We're battle tested. This is kind of

81
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:15.919
<v Speaker 2>a family band at this point. We know each other

82
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:19.959
<v Speaker 2>so well, and you know, I think it comes across

83
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:23.040
<v Speaker 2>on stage the love that we have not just for

84
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.319
<v Speaker 2>playing music, but the love that we have for each

85
00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:28.360
<v Speaker 2>other in the group. And it's a lot of fun.

86
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.319
<v Speaker 2>It's a high energy show and I hope people will

87
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:35.279
<v Speaker 2>come out and support us tomorrow night and support mainly

88
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:39.959
<v Speaker 2>the community of Evergreen. These guys need us and they

89
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.160
<v Speaker 2>need to start healing, and you can be a part

90
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:42.399
<v Speaker 2>of that.

91
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:44.480
<v Speaker 1>Well. I think it's going to be a great ye.

92
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:45.959
<v Speaker 1>What's your favorite song to play?

93
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:53.839
<v Speaker 2>Oh boy? As far as cover songs, there's so many.

94
00:04:54.319 --> 00:05:00.399
<v Speaker 2>We typically close with Rolling Stones gimme shelter. Not too

95
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:06.560
<v Speaker 2>many bands covered that song. Because the female vocal on that,

96
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:10.319
<v Speaker 2>I forget her name, the original that did it with

97
00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:11.120
<v Speaker 2>the Rolling Stones.

98
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.480
<v Speaker 1>She also did she did a couple of their songs.

99
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:16.800
<v Speaker 1>What is her name? I can picture her perfectly in

100
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:17.279
<v Speaker 1>my mind.

101
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:23.879
<v Speaker 2>Same but that chorus raped murder, you know what I'm

102
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:27.480
<v Speaker 2>talking about. Nobody can really do that like that, and

103
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:30.680
<v Speaker 2>Sarah just kills that, and I think that's what really

104
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.160
<v Speaker 2>makes our cover of that song special. We played that

105
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:38.360
<v Speaker 2>at Fidler's Green the same day that Charlie Watts died,

106
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.000
<v Speaker 2>the Rolling Stones drummer. I think we were opened it

107
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:45.199
<v Speaker 2>for maybe Sammy Hagar that night and we just had

108
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.639
<v Speaker 2>a short set. They said you guys can play one

109
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:50.800
<v Speaker 2>cover song, and that was the one we chose, and

110
00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:53.800
<v Speaker 2>I announced that, you know, this is for Charlie Watts

111
00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:57.879
<v Speaker 2>and all your Rolling Stones fans out there and we

112
00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:02.959
<v Speaker 2>crushed the cover. I went backstage and these these grizzled

113
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:06.120
<v Speaker 2>roadies that were backstage that have been on the road

114
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:09.839
<v Speaker 2>for decades and probably toured with The Stones over the years.

115
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:11.519
<v Speaker 2>Those guys were crying.

116
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:13.199
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I love it, I love it.

117
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:14.600
<v Speaker 2>That's it was that powerful.

118
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:17.319
<v Speaker 1>Mary Clayton is the woman we're trying to remember, and

119
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:19.279
<v Speaker 1>she has only done that one song. She just did

120
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:21.519
<v Speaker 1>get me sheltered with the Stones. I'm confusing her with

121
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:25.560
<v Speaker 1>another woman completely, but so that's what we're talking about.

122
00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:28.480
<v Speaker 1>That's fantastic. Somebody just asked, were you ever in Government Mule?

123
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:33.639
<v Speaker 2>Was I in Government? Yeah? No, but I do know

124
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:38.480
<v Speaker 2>Warren Haines quite well Government Mule. Before they were really big,

125
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:41.000
<v Speaker 2>when they were coming through town and playing like the

126
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo Rose, we would have them at studio and they

127
00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:48.040
<v Speaker 2>would play specifically for us in studio and I became

128
00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:50.360
<v Speaker 2>good friends with Warren Haines over the years, and he's

129
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:54.399
<v Speaker 2>one of the best musicians, best guitar players around, great songwriter,

130
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:57.680
<v Speaker 2>and just a really quality dude. And so no, I

131
00:06:57.839 --> 00:07:01.079
<v Speaker 2>played with Government Mule. I played shows with Government you'll

132
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:02.600
<v Speaker 2>but I've never been in the band.

133
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:07.079
<v Speaker 1>Okay, clarifying that and last question, could you please ask

134
00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Rick if you have if he has any music uploaded

135
00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:12.279
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube. Do you guys have a YouTube page?

136
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>We don't we have. What you should do is go

137
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:20.839
<v Speaker 2>to the band website, which is Rick lewisproject dot com

138
00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:24.399
<v Speaker 2>and there's a bunch of live videos performances on there.

139
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:28.199
<v Speaker 2>And typically, you know, people at the show will shoot

140
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:30.600
<v Speaker 2>a video on their phone and then post it kind

141
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.560
<v Speaker 2>of what it is. So the audio quality isn't professionalists rough,

142
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:37.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's not mixed, but you certainly get the

143
00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:38.439
<v Speaker 2>point well, and.

144
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Somebody else asks is there a floor for dancing? There

145
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:42.800
<v Speaker 1>is a floor. Don't think you're going to be out

146
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:45.360
<v Speaker 1>there ballroom dancing because you'll probably be shoulders to shoulder

147
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:47.839
<v Speaker 1>with everybody else doing the hippie shake. That's kind of

148
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:49.040
<v Speaker 1>what happens out there.

149
00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:52.480
<v Speaker 2>That's a that's a great explanation. Yeah, it's I think

150
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 2>it holds about three hundred and fifty people, maybe four hundred, Yeah,

151
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:58.759
<v Speaker 2>and it'll be packed in there. And the cool part

152
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:02.600
<v Speaker 2>about the little bear there's a balcony up above, which

153
00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:05.360
<v Speaker 2>I believe is where the VIP section is and those

154
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:10.519
<v Speaker 2>people are almost looking down right onto the stage. So

155
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:13.759
<v Speaker 2>It's really cool because you feel like these people are

156
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:17.800
<v Speaker 2>just hanging pretty much off the balcony just above your

157
00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:21.879
<v Speaker 2>head and feels like a house party. I think that's

158
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:24.319
<v Speaker 2>a good way to describe it. And if you've ever

159
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:26.319
<v Speaker 2>been to a cool house party, you know what I'm

160
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:29.279
<v Speaker 2>talking about. The energy is incredible and this is going

161
00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:31.959
<v Speaker 2>to be a really special night. I've heard they had

162
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.919
<v Speaker 2>some high school kids that have volunteered to help out

163
00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:39.159
<v Speaker 2>and work the show. I can't wait to play tomorrow night.

164
00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:43.200
<v Speaker 1>All right, my friend, have an absolute blast. By the way,

165
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:45.320
<v Speaker 1>I put a link on my blog for the Recluse

166
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Project so you can go ahead and check them out

167
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:49.080
<v Speaker 1>and head out to a little Bear. I think you

168
00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:50.240
<v Speaker 1>have a great gig man.

169
00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:53.840
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Mandy, love you and thanks for having me

170
00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 2>on and look forward to getting you back to a

171
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:56.480
<v Speaker 2>show again.

172
00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'll talk to you soon.

173
00:08:57.759 --> 00:08:57.919
