00:01:52,599 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 3: Say the name of your label without tripping over it.

22
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,359
See I did my homework this time.

23
00:01:57,599 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 2: Just too many syllables.

24
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:02,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, welcome back. It's good to see you. Although

25
00:02:02,359 --> 00:02:07,480
you know, unfortunately under some uh troubling circumstances, because of

26
00:02:07,519 --> 00:02:11,360
the what happened recently in Nashua, we should probably uh

27
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,120
should probably talk about should we talk about that first?

28
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,840
And I know there's another part to it we might

29
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,719
circle back to at the end, but but you know,

30
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,280
I'm sure people are tuning in wanting to know uh

31
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:26,280
more about what happened and then the aftermath and how

32
00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:27,759
you're moving forward through that.

33
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 5: And uh, yeah, it's been it's it's been a crazy

34
00:02:32,159 --> 00:02:33,800
end to twenty twenty five for us.

35
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, sorrowing.

36
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, last time we were here, we were talking about

37
00:02:39,599 --> 00:02:42,879
getting getting rolling with H and S and uh and

38
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:43,840
we're still rolling.

39
00:02:44,319 --> 00:02:46,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, some minor setback.

40
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 6: Train slowed down a little bit a little bit. Yeah, Yeah,

41
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,879
it's uh, you know, we're we're making the best of it.

42
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 2: We're doing what we can.

43
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,319
Speaker 3: So for the for those who don't know what happened exactly,

44
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,759
I mean, obviously there was a there was a fire, so.

45
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: There it's two streets Ash Street.

46
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,879
Speaker 5: There was a apartment complex that caught fire, and there's

47
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,039
rumors I don't want to get into like rumors of

48
00:03:12,039 --> 00:03:14,960
how it all happened, But what ended up happening was

49
00:03:15,039 --> 00:03:20,120
that fire, which absolutely destroyed this apartment building spread over

50
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:24,599
to the warehouse where Tree Streets Inc. Was located. Tree

51
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,400
Streets Inc. Is the studio that Hatchet accident saw works

52
00:03:27,439 --> 00:03:31,360
out of Okay, and it's where we, you know, keep

53
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:32,280
all of our equipment.

54
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,879
Speaker 2: It's where we do all the recording.

55
00:03:35,039 --> 00:03:37,439
Speaker 5: My record was supposed to last time we were here,

56
00:03:37,479 --> 00:03:40,080
we were talking about my record dropping on December seventeenth,

57
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,120
and obviously that didn't happen. So the fire spread over

58
00:03:44,159 --> 00:03:49,120
to the warehouse and it like was you know, engulfed

59
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,120
in flames. It was a big story and it was

60
00:03:53,159 --> 00:03:57,759
just pretty it's it's just pretty crazy. I was literally

61
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:04,560
down in the studio until about two i am the.

62
00:04:02,879 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 2: Day of, or the night before the fire.

63
00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, working on the title track of the record, and.

64
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 2: I literally wrapped on it.

65
00:04:13,599 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 5: I couldn't wait to call Caleb and say, hey, it's done,

66
00:04:17,319 --> 00:04:19,399
ready for you, ready for you to step in, ready

67
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:19,839
to master.

68
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 2: And I went home around two in the morning.

69
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 5: I had been working all day and I got the

70
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,480
call a couple hours later from somebody else that used

71
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,360
to work in the studio. And it was six thirty

72
00:04:33,399 --> 00:04:36,040
in the morning, and this is a true story, six

73
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,639
thirty in the morning. And I answered the phone and

74
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,000
I'm like, I said to this kid something, something better

75
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,439
be on fire if you're calling this early. And he goes,

76
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,519
I really wish you didn't say that. And then we

77
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,240
get to the scene. I got I got to the scene.

78
00:04:52,439 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 2: You called me.

79
00:04:53,399 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 5: I called Caleb, and when I got there, I just

80
00:04:57,639 --> 00:04:58,879
I just watched everything.

81
00:04:59,439 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 2: Everything was on fire. Like it.

82
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 5: It's a weird expression that we use all the time.

83
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,279
Everything's on fire, right right, you know, but everything's everything

84
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:12,800
was on fire. I had worked so hard, we had

85
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,920
all worked so hard at this record Superhero Toys that

86
00:05:16,959 --> 00:05:21,120
was supposed to drop on December seventeenth. Yeah, and everything

87
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,480
was on fire. And I call Kale. I'm like, I

88
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,519
don't get down here. I don't know what to do.

89
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,199
First thing we did was round up the people that

90
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:37,439
we knew might have been in the building. Nobody got

91
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,879
severely hurt, which is which is the main focus on

92
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,519
everything that we've done since this, these few minutes that

93
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,079
I'm talking about. Yeah, Connor Coburn from No More Blue

94
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:53,639
Tomorrow's Tom Philbrook Ivan did too many to name, but

95
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,519
we just made sure everybody was okay first, all right,

96
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,600
everybody's okay.

97
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:04,399
Speaker 2: Now we can now we can start being sad, right yeah, yeah.

98
00:06:04,439 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 6: I think the worst was like smoke inhalation with someone

99
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,199
on one O eight or one ten ash.

100
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:09,879
Speaker 2: I think that was really Yeah.

101
00:06:09,879 --> 00:06:13,439
Speaker 6: We're just just very fortunate that just everybody got Yeah,

102
00:06:13,439 --> 00:06:14,240
everyone was just.

103
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 3: That is that is lucky considering the magnitude of the fire,

104
00:06:17,439 --> 00:06:18,480
that that no one was.

105
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 6: Unbelieved property can be replaced life camp right exactly right?

106
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 3: Wow, So now so does that mean, like, is everything

107
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:30,720
you worked on for the album?

108
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 2: Is that?

109
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:32,079
Speaker 3: Is that all gone?

110
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 5: So this story is this story is like crazy because

111
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,240
the last time we were here we were talking about

112
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,839
how the album came to be. I had a turbulent uh,

113
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,279
I had a turbulent year, and then Caleb and I

114
00:06:47,319 --> 00:06:49,639
decided that we were going to make the record. I

115
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,839
turned everything around. I kept things positive and I'm still

116
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:59,600
keeping things positive. But the we were on the bottom floor,

117
00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:05,759
so everything that the only damage that we received was

118
00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:08,879
water damage because they stopped the fire at the top.

119
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,399
So some of the other studios that were in the building,

120
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,560
they lost everything. The people who were in the apartment building.

121
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:18,399
They lost everything. Yeah, I lost or thought I lost

122
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,480
my music. Oh so I am. I completely was like,

123
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:22,600
don't worry about me.

124
00:07:22,959 --> 00:07:23,399
Speaker 2: Ye, you know.

125
00:07:23,439 --> 00:07:25,879
Speaker 5: We've done three benefit shows for the folks who have

126
00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:29,480
been displaced. We've raised over seven thousand dollars so far,

127
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,879
between a solo show with me, a show at Peddler's

128
00:07:33,959 --> 00:07:38,160
with Connor, and then down at Bad Burger. They hooked

129
00:07:38,199 --> 00:07:39,839
us up and we did a great show and we've

130
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,639
raised so much money for the So I'm not accepting

131
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,120
any donations or doing any gofundmes. I was really sad

132
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,680
about my music because when we finally were able to

133
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,399
get down there, the computer that everything was on was

134
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,560
under three feet of water and some of it's backed up,

135
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,319
some of it's not. But even the stuff that's backed up, like,

136
00:07:58,319 --> 00:08:00,000
there's no way we're going to be able to release

137
00:07:59,839 --> 00:08:01,480
the record, right, you know?

138
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:03,319
Speaker 2: Yeah? So, and we didn't even know what was on

139
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:03,879
the hard drive.

140
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 5: It's literally been a week since our executive producer, Dave

141
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,360
Patterson texted me and told me that the hard drives

142
00:08:12,399 --> 00:08:16,480
all set, everything is still there. We can still release

143
00:08:16,519 --> 00:08:20,120
the record and like like that, that's when I told

144
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,720
people like, you want to see me cry, that's that's

145
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,199
when you're gonna see me cry. I got my stuff back, Yeah,

146
00:08:25,639 --> 00:08:28,879
I got my stuff back. We're not releasing the record.

147
00:08:28,879 --> 00:08:31,240
What we're gonna do is re release the EP that

148
00:08:31,279 --> 00:08:34,799
we released in July. But we're gonna do it with

149
00:08:34,879 --> 00:08:38,240
the same kind of same approach that we were going

150
00:08:38,279 --> 00:08:41,080
to take at the record. We're gonna do CDs, shirts, stickers,

151
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:46,080
maybe posters, and and just get out and start playing.

152
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,759
But instead of being ten songs, it's gonna be five.

153
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,039
And uh, then we'll once we figure out a location

154
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,799
to set up shop to start mixing the record, that's

155
00:08:58,799 --> 00:09:01,639
when we're gonna go forward and start working on that.

156
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,120
You know, Eleanor and Andre down at Terminus, they're volunteering some space.

157
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:12,879
They've been instrumental, especially Eleanor, like what a person like,

158
00:09:13,799 --> 00:09:18,360
just instrumental in organizing the community to come together. And

159
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:21,000
that is the biggest piece of all of this, is

160
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:25,120
that our music community came together for this, like immediately,

161
00:09:25,879 --> 00:09:28,480
and I couldn't be I couldn't be more proud to

162
00:09:28,519 --> 00:09:30,080
be a part of it, you know what I mean. Like,

163
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,879
there's so many different genres of music in this area,

164
00:09:33,879 --> 00:09:36,759
and that's what Hatchet Accent saw I really wanted to

165
00:09:36,759 --> 00:09:39,720
to focus on, and that's what we wanted to do.

166
00:09:39,799 --> 00:09:43,720
We wanted to put everybody out there, and they came

167
00:09:43,799 --> 00:09:47,879
to our aid like immediately. So I'm very proud to

168
00:09:47,919 --> 00:09:49,799
say that that I'm a part of this southern New

169
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,360
Hayampshire music community because because.

170
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 2: We're we're awesome. Yeah, that's how people showed out, man. Yeah,

171
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,320
question absolutely.

172
00:09:58,799 --> 00:10:01,799
Speaker 3: Now what about music? Were you in the midst of

173
00:10:02,159 --> 00:10:04,519
working on anything else for any of the other artists

174
00:10:04,519 --> 00:10:07,600
associated with the label or we.

175
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 6: We had been working on one it it kind of

176
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,840
it was fallen through for for some reasons, but there

177
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,960
was also more that was going to be coming with

178
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:23,360
Santino that it just kind of started that that hadn't

179
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,639
fallen through. We just oh, Crank and Wagon. Crank and

180
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,960
Wagon had had literally weeks before the fire. We had

181
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,480
just started and we had gotten tracks, drum tracks on

182
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,960
our self titled tune. We had started one of the

183
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,519
other ones too, and yeah, man, there were some projects

184
00:10:42,519 --> 00:10:46,360
that that were nascent, but but still still it started.

185
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,360
In fact, you can go and you can check out

186
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:52,679
the Facebook reels that I think Paul published of him

187
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,960
doing the the ambulance sound with the guitar. Yeah, it's

188
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,000
just just some fun stuff we were doing with that tune. Yeah,

189
00:11:00,159 --> 00:11:03,120
but you know, we had stuff that was in the

190
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,840
works that I think really would have knocked your socks.

191
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 2: It still will.

192
00:11:06,799 --> 00:11:09,759
Speaker 6: I mean, yea, this week, we gotta you know, we

193
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,320
gotta make the time and right now get in the

194
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,879
real estates the big block. Dave and I Dave and

195
00:11:15,919 --> 00:11:21,200
I are we're looking, we're scouting options, but it's kind

196
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,120
of hard to replace what we had there because the

197
00:11:24,159 --> 00:11:28,440
one the one thing, man, we are two things. We

198
00:11:28,519 --> 00:11:31,919
had the electricity included in the cost of the rent, yeah,

199
00:11:31,919 --> 00:11:34,600
which I mean for a musician, holy crap.

200
00:11:34,799 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, space was like, yeah, it's just and then on

201
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,200
top of that, as if that wasn't good enough, we

202
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,320
also had it twenty four loud down there, which is

203
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,440
just I mean, what more.

204
00:11:48,279 --> 00:11:50,759
Speaker 2: Can you ask for? Yeah, you know, if you if

205
00:11:50,799 --> 00:11:51,279
you can.

206
00:11:51,159 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 6: Work all hours of the day and night and and

207
00:11:54,919 --> 00:11:57,960
have power included in your rent, oh yeah I would.

208
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 5: I'd get out of work at nine shoot down there

209
00:12:01,639 --> 00:12:03,960
and just be there all night working on the music.

210
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,919
Whether I'm working on one of the projects or my

211
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,440
own stuff. It was just it was too good to

212
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:15,679
be true that space. But you know what, we learned

213
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,440
a lot down there in the last In the last

214
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,039
five years that I've been working with Caleb and Dave,

215
00:12:21,159 --> 00:12:24,960
I've learned so much about myself as a musician. I've

216
00:12:25,039 --> 00:12:29,840
learned how it all goes together. And it's not easy,

217
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,919
like you know, I mean, and I still need Dave

218
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,320
and Caleb to come down and do the mixes and

219
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,000
stuff like that.

220
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, how do you put a song together? How do

221
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:39,799
you put show together?

222
00:12:41,159 --> 00:12:44,039
Speaker 5: I grew so much as a musician because of One

223
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,360
fifteen Vine. I've been a musician since I was seven.

224
00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:50,159
I'm forty five years old, and in the last five

225
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,159
years I can now be like really proud of who

226
00:12:54,159 --> 00:12:56,000
I am as a musician, and a lot of it

227
00:12:56,039 --> 00:12:59,919
has to do with Caleb, Dave and one fifteen Vine.

228
00:13:00,159 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, no doubt a brief detour, because I truly don't

229
00:13:05,159 --> 00:13:11,200
think we're just Jesse myself, Dave even just dead like

230
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,960
other bands in the basement dead Time, you know, good

231
00:13:15,039 --> 00:13:19,840
good friends and folks and incredible musicians. We're just one

232
00:13:19,879 --> 00:13:22,879
small piece, small recent piece of the history of that

233
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,279
building in the music community.

234
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 2: I don't really.

235
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 6: I don't think people truly understand. It goes back decades. Really, Yeah,

236
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:33,279
that that that building in the like early two thousands,

237
00:13:34,279 --> 00:13:37,960
it was the home for a bunch of bands. I mean,

238
00:13:38,039 --> 00:13:41,840
one of one band. I remember when I was in

239
00:13:41,879 --> 00:13:45,639
middle school and going into high school. There's a band Voyagers,

240
00:13:46,159 --> 00:13:52,080
my buddy Eddie and uh Rusty the guitar players, and

241
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,000
then trying to remember but they I mean Eddie, I'm

242
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:56,879
pretty sure he used.

243
00:13:56,799 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 2: To live in that building. Yeah.

244
00:13:58,759 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 6: And you know, now now he's married, he's got a

245
00:14:01,919 --> 00:14:04,600
got a kid, and he's doing great. He's kind of

246
00:14:04,799 --> 00:14:08,879
gotten out of music. But I mean that that whole

247
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:15,440
building for decades was a generator of original music of

248
00:14:16,279 --> 00:14:21,000
you know, people doing it honestly, you know, for for

249
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,559
for real, and and and it's it's truly it's hard

250
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,240
to explain to people that we were just the latest

251
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,639
custodian exactly.

252
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:31,279
Speaker 2: That's it.

253
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,279
Speaker 6: We we were, we were just the most recent and

254
00:14:34,279 --> 00:14:37,919
and I mean I I remember, uh some years ago,

255
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,240
some guys I think they're from the New York area,

256
00:14:40,279 --> 00:14:42,039
but they had a studio all the way up here

257
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,679
in Nashville in that building. Perspective, A lovely hand to hold.

258
00:14:46,279 --> 00:14:47,399
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they were.

259
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,759
Speaker 6: They were a fantastic band, and they had an incredible

260
00:14:50,759 --> 00:14:53,799
studio that was on the second floor, and they they

261
00:14:53,799 --> 00:14:57,480
had moved out some years ago, but just to to

262
00:14:57,679 --> 00:15:02,720
explain to people that there were so many, even people

263
00:15:02,759 --> 00:15:06,679
who weren't affected by the fire, but just so much

264
00:15:06,799 --> 00:15:08,960
music came out of that building over.

265
00:15:08,759 --> 00:15:11,799
Speaker 5: The last five Over the last five years. When I say, oh, yeah,

266
00:15:11,799 --> 00:15:14,080
I'm at one fifteen vine, I could be talking to

267
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:18,320
some band that I was playing with and conquered oh yeah, right, yeah,

268
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,639
the warehouse, Oh yeah, everybody.

269
00:15:21,679 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 2: It gained.

270
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 6: It gained a notoriety of just yeah special place. Yeah,

271
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:30,399
musicians come out of there. And you know, if you

272
00:15:30,519 --> 00:15:32,879
if you had the gumption, if you're really were putting

273
00:15:32,919 --> 00:15:35,840
in time and really doing it, you could do it.

274
00:15:36,039 --> 00:15:36,399
Speaker 2: Yeah.

275
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 5: It wasn't pretty on the outside, but when when you

276
00:15:38,759 --> 00:15:40,480
walk through those doors, it was just.

277
00:15:41,519 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 2: Any given day.

278
00:15:42,399 --> 00:15:44,039
Speaker 5: I'd be going down to work on one of my

279
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:48,720
love songs and I'd hear a hardcore band were cursing upstairs. Yeah,

280
00:15:48,759 --> 00:15:51,639
and and it there's just something about that.

281
00:15:51,759 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

282
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,759
Speaker 5: And then you'd run out to the guys that everybody's

283
00:15:53,759 --> 00:15:54,799
going to their car and stuff.

284
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:56,559
Speaker 2: Oh, you guys sound good.

285
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,799
Speaker 5: And then this hardcore band. I'd be like, oh, I

286
00:15:58,799 --> 00:16:01,600
heard you mixing downstairs. This sounds good, you know, and

287
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,039
and just like the amount of respect we all had

288
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:04,600
for each other.

289
00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 2: It was it was really like the community within a community.

290
00:16:08,519 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, for sure, just you know, and and that

291
00:16:13,159 --> 00:16:17,039
hopefully that community will I mean, it's clearly remaining strong.

292
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,399
I mean the Bad Yeah, the Bad Burger benefit was

293
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:25,519
just it was incredibly well attended, you know, and just uh,

294
00:16:25,799 --> 00:16:28,720
it's it's very heartwarming to see it.

295
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,519
Speaker 5: That was a that was a fun show too, because

296
00:16:31,559 --> 00:16:34,600
I I had just I didn't even know Ash she

297
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,840
does the booking down there, and I saw that she

298
00:16:37,919 --> 00:16:39,519
was putting on a show this is in with within

299
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,159
like two days of the fire, and so I shot

300
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,960
her a message, you know, shoot your shot.

301
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, my name is Jesse Rudstein.

302
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 5: I'm a member of the community that that was affected.

303
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,159
I'd like to get on the bill, just knowing that

304
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,960
it was a benefit show, and she's like, yeah, sure.

305
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,559
She threw my logo on the poster and fun anything like,

306
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,440
apparently my logo looks like everybody else's logo that was

307
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,880
on the poster. But they were all hardcore metal bands

308
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,799
and yeah there's me singing my love songs.

309
00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:13,559
Speaker 6: Some serious It was awesome.

310
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 2: But that's cool though. We had a really cool show.

311
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,319
Speaker 5: But but I with everything that was going on, I

312
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,240
didn't really have a chance to check out all the

313
00:17:21,279 --> 00:17:23,559
other bands that were on the bill. Yeah, and then

314
00:17:23,559 --> 00:17:27,559
when I did, I'm like, oh no, I mean myself

315
00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:28,680
on a hardcore show.

316
00:17:30,279 --> 00:17:32,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's all right, yeah yeah, yeah, no one.

317
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:33,920
The other bands were great.

318
00:17:34,319 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 5: The whole show was very, like Caleb said, was very

319
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:37,240
well attended.

320
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, very well attend and people really did show out.

325
00:17:55,079 --> 00:17:58,039

that was the address, Yeah, team.

327
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 6: And also want to wait in one ten ash I

328
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,359
think that. Yeah, at least in the music community, we

329
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,720
we focused on one fifteen fine, but there were there

330
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,279
were like thirty people this placed from there.

331
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Wow. Yeah, that's the scale of it.

332
00:18:14,759 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 3: Was just yeah, that's awful. Remark remarkable though that in

333
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,720
all that no one was seriously hurt or killed. I

334
00:18:21,799 --> 00:18:26,359
mean that's incredible. Yeah, with that many people, you know, early, well,

335
00:18:26,599 --> 00:18:29,440
what time was this? Like six thirty was when I

336
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:34,039
got the phone call? Yeah, I got there at about eight. Yeah,

337
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:35,920
I called Caleb around seven.

338
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 5: When I got down there, it was like, where's Ivan,

339
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,480
Where's Connor, where's Tom?

340
00:18:40,559 --> 00:18:44,839
Speaker 2: You know, people? Where is everybody? Is? Everybody? Okay? Yeah?

341
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:49,039
Speaker 5: And then so then I called Caleb and and of

342
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,640
course it was the first really big snowstorm of the season.

343
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:57,519
So yeah, then it ding snow. I'm sitting there, like

344
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,640
watching the fire department. This is a five alarm fire.

345
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,079
So hats off to I'm gonna I'm gonna remember them

346
00:19:03,079 --> 00:19:12,680
all this time, uh, Lowell, Nashua, Hollis, Tingsboro, and Hudson. Yeah,

347
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,160
so those are all the fire departments. I think that's right.

348
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,079
If if I missed a fire department, sorry, guys.

349
00:19:17,079 --> 00:19:21,079
Speaker 2: I think Merrimac also show. I think there's six something

350
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:21,359
like that.

351
00:19:21,559 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 5: I don't know the first Hats off to the first

352
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,400
responders for sure, but I'm watching it and I'm like,

353
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,480
and you know, my mind is always going.

354
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 2: I'm an overthinker, and I'm like, oh, maybe this snow

355
00:19:34,039 --> 00:19:34,400
will help.

356
00:19:35,559 --> 00:19:38,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, frozen water falling from the sky. And then

357
00:19:38,839 --> 00:19:41,359
all of a sudden, there's all these flames everywhere, and

358
00:19:42,319 --> 00:19:45,240
these guys like like, there's some great photos and not

359
00:19:45,279 --> 00:19:49,440
they're not great photos, but some really uh captivating photos

360
00:19:49,519 --> 00:19:52,319
of of like this guy on one ladder and this

361
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,519
guy on another ladder, like those guys one of the

362
00:19:54,599 --> 00:19:59,559
Actually there were three injuries, minor injuries, two people from

363
00:19:59,599 --> 00:20:01,920
the apartment a building, and the only other injury was

364
00:20:02,559 --> 00:20:04,799
to a member of one of the fire departments. Okay,

365
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,559
and everybody but like everybody's okay, No nobody got seriously injured.

366
00:20:08,599 --> 00:20:12,640
But those were the only reported injuries throughout the whole thing,

367
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:18,000
so I would be uh, I got to say thanks

368
00:20:18,039 --> 00:20:19,880
to the fire departments.

369
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, strictly the fire departments. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

370
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 6: But as soon as I remember it distinctly, as soon

371
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,480
as the scene was kind of cleared, I went home.

372
00:20:35,599 --> 00:20:37,480
I as soon as I got to the scene and

373
00:20:37,519 --> 00:20:41,039
that fire burning, I was just kind of like, I

374
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:42,759
don't need to be here, I don't need to watch

375
00:20:42,839 --> 00:20:44,680
my life burn away.

376
00:20:45,279 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

377
00:20:45,759 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 6: I just went home and I was like, all right, well,

378
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,039
time to make some plans, like what are we going

379
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:50,720
to do about it?

380
00:20:50,799 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 5: I couldn't take my eyes off it.

381
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 2: And then so, well you gave me a call at

382
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:56,480
what time.

383
00:20:56,799 --> 00:20:58,559
Speaker 6: I don't know when it exactly it was, but it

384
00:20:58,599 --> 00:21:01,640
was sometime the afternoon, and you're like, hey, they're gonna

385
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,920
be letting people into the building, and you were. You

386
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,400
ended up being one of the first people in the building.

387
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,400
To tell a little bit about that, And then I'll

388
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,759
explain when I got there and what I did to.

389
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 8: You.

390
00:21:13,519 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 5: So you want to do you want me to tell

391
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:20,480
a story, Well, I mean tell like when's got down

392
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,799
in there, like you saw, you saw it in the

393
00:21:22,839 --> 00:21:25,079
original state, you saw it before even I.

394
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was the first one in the building.

395
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:33,039
Speaker 5: So so we're sitting there, everything's burning, and the news

396
00:21:33,079 --> 00:21:37,279
crews show up and our good friend Connor Coburn, really

397
00:21:37,279 --> 00:21:39,640
close friend of mine, he lead singer for No More

398
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,839
Blue tomorrows Uh. He's the one who put on the

399
00:21:42,839 --> 00:21:45,359
benefit that's raised the most money for the victims so far.

400
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:47,599
Speaker 2: But he sees the news cruise.

401
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 5: Show up and he looks over and he goes, Jesse,

402
00:21:50,519 --> 00:21:52,680
there's some cameras over there, like, all right, I'll see

403
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,920
you guys later, and I went and I did some

404
00:21:55,079 --> 00:22:01,119
interviews and on local and national national news about the fire,

405
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,359
which was on the street right next to the building.

406
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,559
And so that happened. Caleb's like, I'm out of here.

407
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,559
You know, everybody's kind of dispersed. One of the great

408
00:22:12,839 --> 00:22:16,799
coincidences about the location of this place is that my

409
00:22:17,079 --> 00:22:20,319
ex wife lives right down the road. So even throughout

410
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,279
all these years, I'll be at the studio, then I,

411
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:23,440
you know, see my kids.

412
00:22:23,799 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 2: My kids would just come down and jam.

413
00:22:25,599 --> 00:22:29,799
Speaker 5: You know, my sons are they play and you know

414
00:22:29,839 --> 00:22:31,559
they would they would, you know, I would be able

415
00:22:31,599 --> 00:22:33,319
to just run over there, have dinner and go back

416
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:38,559
and work on stuff. Yeah, nice little coincidence. So I

417
00:22:38,599 --> 00:22:40,480
set up shop at my ex wife's house.

418
00:22:40,559 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 2: I called her.

419
00:22:41,319 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 5: Obviously she knew what was going on, she could see

420
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,119
it from her window. And I was kind of like

421
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,039
gonna be the point person to be able to walk

422
00:22:50,079 --> 00:22:51,000
down there and see what was.

423
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 2: Going on throughout the day.

424
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:57,799
Speaker 5: So at around eleven am, after everybody had left, we

425
00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:59,839
had some food.

426
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:00,839
Speaker 2: I didn't even know if it was.

427
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 5: It was one of those days where it wasn't lunch,

428
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,519
it wasn't breakfast, it was just, yeah.

429
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 2: We have food.

430
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 5: And I walked down there again with my son and

431
00:23:09,759 --> 00:23:11,240
we went to go check it out and I saw

432
00:23:11,279 --> 00:23:16,039
the police, I'm sorry, the fire chief, and he brought

433
00:23:16,039 --> 00:23:17,920
me in the building with him. This is after the

434
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,599
fire was out, and I was like, I just I

435
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,200
just want to know what's going on downstairs. And he

436
00:23:24,279 --> 00:23:26,720
walked down half the stairs and he goes, there's like

437
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:27,640
three four feet of.

438
00:23:27,559 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 2: Water down there.

439
00:23:29,279 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 5: That's how much That's how much water it took to

440
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,799
put out this fire. But we're in the basement of warehouse,

441
00:23:33,839 --> 00:23:37,640
so there was nowhere for the water to go. So

442
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,680
that I call Caleb, I let him know that, and

443
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,359
I go back to go back to the point. And

444
00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:46,599
about a couple hours later, I walked down the street again.

445
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,799
This time there was police tape up, like they had

446
00:23:49,799 --> 00:23:53,200
put like tape up, and this is the same street

447
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,000
I had been walking down all day. There's actually a

448
00:23:55,079 --> 00:23:57,559
video of me and my son coming back from that

449
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,400
visit where the Mayor of Nashville was taking a video

450
00:24:01,559 --> 00:24:04,160
saying how how tragic it is on this street. But

451
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,759
now there's tape there. I didn't really think anything of it.

452
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:12,960
And I walked around and Officer Jonathan Earnhardt decided to

453
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,000
start yelling at me. Rightfully, so I crossed the tape. Sure, sure,

454
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,480
I did a bad thing, he said, But but he

455
00:24:19,519 --> 00:24:20,480
was Immanti, I'm gonna rest you.

456
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 3: I mean, you probably weren't even thinking about it, right,

457
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,359
It's not like it's not like you consciously did that.

458
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, und I just walked the route that I've been

459
00:24:27,039 --> 00:24:30,079
walking for five years. Yeah, And I like, he's he's

460
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,759
threatening to arrest me, and I'm like, I'm like, dude, seriously,

461
00:24:32,799 --> 00:24:35,599
Like I am just like one of the victims here.

462
00:24:35,839 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 2: I'm just checking in.

463
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 5: I was literally in the building with the fire chief

464
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,200
a little while ago, and he's yelling at me and

465
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,720
doing his little cop thing, and I'm I'm not nice.

466
00:24:44,799 --> 00:24:47,599
I'm not nice when people I have I've always.

467
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:48,319
Speaker 2: Had a problem with authorities.

468
00:24:48,519 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 5: Sure, sure, but at this, at this point in the game,

469
00:24:51,279 --> 00:24:53,319
like I wasn't doing anything. I literally did a news

470
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,759
I was on TV on the place I was standing,

471
00:24:55,839 --> 00:24:56,480
so I didn't think it was.

472
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:56,839
Speaker 2: A big deal.

473
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 3: And you were dealing with a lot emotionally in that moment, right,

474
00:25:00,519 --> 00:25:01,920
I mean, this is a traumatic thing.

475
00:25:02,039 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 5: I am losing my mind, not knowing what is going on.

476
00:25:05,839 --> 00:25:08,000
So I walked back to my ex wife's house and

477
00:25:08,079 --> 00:25:10,640
I told her what happened. And Tom hanging with my son.

478
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,799
We're playing Minecraft, you know what I mean, just just

479
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,240
trying to forget about what's going on. Finally four o'clock

480
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,400
rolls around and I'm like, you know what, I like

481
00:25:19,519 --> 00:25:22,200
what Caleb did early in the morning, Like I'm calling

482
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,359
it today. We'll figure all this out. Nobody needs me here,

483
00:25:26,839 --> 00:25:29,440
so and and I I didn't you know, dried. I

484
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,240
had to get an uber to get home. So I

485
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,359
ordered my uber, but because of the police vehicles on

486
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,920
the street, the uber couldn't get in.

487
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,279
Speaker 2: So I walk down Ash. I walked three blocks.

488
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:47,799
Speaker 5: I walked down Ash around back to Vine to you know,

489
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,839
to not cross the line, because I complied when he

490
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,559
told me not to cross the line. And I get

491
00:25:53,599 --> 00:25:55,160
to the building and he's on the other side of

492
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:58,119
the building because he was literally parked on the other

493
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,240
side of the building. There's a couple of cop cars there,

494
00:26:00,279 --> 00:26:01,839
and another officer was like, where are you going.

495
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm just trying to catch my uber. He's

496
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:05,200
over there. Can I go?

497
00:26:05,559 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 5: And he's like, yeah, sure, And then I noticed people

498
00:26:07,799 --> 00:26:09,480
going in and out of the building. The cops had

499
00:26:09,519 --> 00:26:11,880
started letting some of the musicians, and I started seeing

500
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:13,759
my friends going on and out of the building.

501
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

502
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 5: So I turned to the officer respectfully and I'm like,

503
00:26:16,759 --> 00:26:17,839
you're letting people in there.

504
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 2: This is my building. Now.

505
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 5: Keep in mind, I've been calling this my building for

506
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,039
five years. It doesn't belong to me, but you know,

507
00:26:24,039 --> 00:26:25,200
it's like say in my house.

508
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,519
Speaker 2: Right right, Yeah, of course belongs to Hinch crowdly right right.

509
00:26:29,759 --> 00:26:33,599
So the officers like, yeah, you're one of the musicians. Yeah,

510
00:26:33,599 --> 00:26:34,119
I can go ahead.

511
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 5: So I cancel my UBER and I go in and

512
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,599
we start ripping guitars out of there. Like I'm on

513
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,440
the stairs. These other guys are all wading through the water.

514
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,680
They're giving me the computer. They're giving Devin was like,

515
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,240
what do you need. I'm like, the computer, yeah, you know,

516
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,799
and get me the strat, get me the this case,

517
00:26:49,839 --> 00:26:52,640
this case, brown case, you know. And we're just pulling

518
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,160
instruments up for about a half an hour and the

519
00:26:55,200 --> 00:27:00,359
pit's black. I'm soaked, everybody's you know, And I cancel

520
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,640
the uber and my dad called me and he's like Hey,

521
00:27:03,079 --> 00:27:05,400
do you want some help. I'm like yeah, because because

522
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,359
he was out and whatever. So he drove down, parked

523
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,559
behind the officers, and I was just gonna start loading

524
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:16,880
up some guitars into his car. And the first guitar

525
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,599
that I grabbed was the Stratocaster and it belongs to Caleb. Well,

526
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,240
it belongs to the studio, doesn't belong to me. I

527
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,000
was the one who bought it. I didn't grab my

528
00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:29,480
guitar first. This Strata is on every track. It's a

529
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,559
very important sentimental piece, but it's also one of the

530
00:27:33,559 --> 00:27:36,480
best guitars in the studio. So I grabbed that one first,

531
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,920
mainly because like carrying two was like carrying one hundred pounds.

532
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no doubt.

533
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,839
Speaker 5: And then I'm carrying it toward my I see my dad,

534
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,359
see the cop cars.

535
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,559
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, I hear where's your uber?

536
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 5: And it's the officer from earlier in the day, Jonathan

537
00:27:56,039 --> 00:28:00,240
earn Hart. He starts yelling at me and he's like,

538
00:28:00,279 --> 00:28:03,279
where's your uber. I'm like, dude, I canceled my uber.

539
00:28:03,279 --> 00:28:06,000
You're letting people in the building. I'm at this point,

540
00:28:06,039 --> 00:28:08,000
I'm like I don't want to deal with this. I

541
00:28:08,039 --> 00:28:12,279
can feel my blood getting hotter. And he goes, you

542
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,599
lied to him and you said you own this building,

543
00:28:14,839 --> 00:28:19,079
and you lied and you said you were getting I'm like, dude, please, Yeah.

544
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:20,319
Speaker 2: It was crazy.

545
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,319
Speaker 5: And he looked, he literally looked at me, and he's like, listen,

546
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:24,759
I've had a really long day.

547
00:28:25,319 --> 00:28:28,759
Speaker 3: Oh my god, my god.

548
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:34,039
Speaker 2: So this is yeah my blood.

549
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,599
Speaker 5: This is where my blood went from boiling to just

550
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,839
like overflowing the pot. And and I was like, you've

551
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,559
had a long day. And I said, and I started

552
00:28:43,599 --> 00:28:45,400
running my mouth and I shouldn't have run my mouth.

553
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,160
And when I run my mouth, it runs. And then

554
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:50,160
so he's like, you're on body cam right now, I'll

555
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,079
arrest you right now. He had no reason to arrest me.

556
00:28:52,119 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 2: I was. I was threatening.

557
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,799
Speaker 5: So what I did was I leaned the stratocaster case

558
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,039
on my leg and I put my hands up and

559
00:28:58,079 --> 00:29:00,200
I was like, go ahead and arrest me. If if

560
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,119
you're gonna arrest me, go ahead and just do it.

561
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,839
Like he had no reason to, right, so he couldn't.

562
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,640
And he grabbed the guitar and he threw it toward

563
00:29:08,759 --> 00:29:13,920
my father's car. Oh go far in defense of this officer,

564
00:29:14,079 --> 00:29:17,640
mister Officer Earn Hardt. I will say, in his defense,

565
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,079
he didn't know what he was throwing. No, he like,

566
00:29:20,279 --> 00:29:22,160
he shows up to a you know, cops have a

567
00:29:22,519 --> 00:29:25,519
hard job. They show up to like like scenes all

568
00:29:25,559 --> 00:29:27,599
the time, Like this guy's getting thrown out of his house,

569
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,240
grab his suitcase and get out of here, you know.

570
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,440
So so in his defense, he didn't know what he

571
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,559
was throwing, but he threw. Doesn't make it okay, though,

572
00:29:35,839 --> 00:29:38,240
and that's the point of this story. So he throws

573
00:29:38,279 --> 00:29:41,480
the guitar and that's when I lost my mind. I'm

574
00:29:41,519 --> 00:29:44,160
still in the air and I'm now I'm like all

575
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:45,720
the things that you could say to a cop that

576
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,559
you're not supposed to say, I'm saying, but I'm I'm

577
00:29:48,599 --> 00:29:54,759
non threatening, like I wasn't doing anything wrong. And so finally,

578
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,960
thank god it was my dad who was there, because

579
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,720
because I would have ended up in cuffs.

580
00:29:58,839 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 2: You out there.

581
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 5: He was like, he grabbed the guitar, he put it

582
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:03,640
in the car, He got me in the car and

583
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,759
he's like, let's just go. I'm like, I have other

584
00:30:05,799 --> 00:30:07,960
stuff to get, and the cops like, you're not going

585
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:08,720
back in that building.

586
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,079
Speaker 2: It's crime scene. I'm like, you're other people.

587
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:16,559
Speaker 6: They're literally literally Connor, Connor, I, I, I, everybody, whoever else.

588
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 2: He hasn't shown up yet.

589
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,119
Speaker 6: No, I showed up maybe about an hour after this

590
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:22,400
all I called him.

591
00:30:22,519 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: I went home like I'm like screaming. Caleb's like, Jesus

592
00:30:27,359 --> 00:30:28,000
es I know.

593
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,759
Speaker 6: I'm just like now I have to now go and

594
00:30:30,799 --> 00:30:32,880
get all of the rest of the time as much

595
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:33,920
as I could carry it out.

596
00:30:34,559 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 5: And I'm not saying like I believe that officer Earnhardt

597
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,880
caused the scene, but but I didn't. But I was

598
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,240
very much part of the scene. So I get home,

599
00:30:44,359 --> 00:30:46,400
I opened the case. I noticed at the back of

600
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,160
the back of the neck the guitar is damaged and

601
00:30:51,559 --> 00:30:52,960
it's still being looked at.

602
00:30:53,079 --> 00:30:54,799
Speaker 2: It could have been water damage, but.

603
00:30:54,880 --> 00:31:00,079
Speaker 6: It's it's very likely a combination of both. So I

604
00:31:00,119 --> 00:31:02,759
took it and this this is a shameless plug. This

605
00:31:02,799 --> 00:31:04,400
is a shameless plug. And then then I'll talk about

606
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:05,200
the salvage operation.

607
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, let me, but before you do that, sure, I

608
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,279
noticed the guitar was damaged, So I did the right thing,

609
00:31:12,319 --> 00:31:15,759
and I filed police report against this officer for damaging

610
00:31:15,799 --> 00:31:18,680
our property. And I get a phone call two days

611
00:31:18,759 --> 00:31:21,480
later from what I just think is a supervisor.

612
00:31:21,519 --> 00:31:22,079
Speaker 2: I didn't know that.

613
00:31:22,119 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 5: I was talking to the captain of the National Police

614
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,839
Department and he told us to come. He asked me

615
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,440
to come down, and so I immediately called Caleb, grab

616
00:31:29,519 --> 00:31:33,559
the evidence. Let's go, because because Caleb's first like this

617
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,720
was an impact that it could Yeah, he'll he'll tell

618
00:31:36,759 --> 00:31:38,759
you all about how the wood is on the guitar

619
00:31:38,799 --> 00:31:41,000
and all that. But we get to the police department

620
00:31:41,039 --> 00:31:42,960
and I said, I hope you don't mind I brought.

621
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,079
Speaker 2: I brought my partner with.

622
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:47,599
Speaker 5: Me, and he goes, well, I would have liked to

623
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,720
heads up, and then we sit down in the chair.

624
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,400
What this guy thought was gonna be like he thought

625
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,440
he was going to reprimand me for yelling and being

626
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,319
a bad boy. But and he was like, you know,

627
00:31:57,359 --> 00:31:59,039
he was going to throw a couple bucks because they

628
00:31:59,039 --> 00:32:01,720
do have funds in police departments, like if they have

629
00:32:01,759 --> 00:32:04,359
to kick in a door during a fire or during

630
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,680
during a scene that the state, the city or the

631
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:08,720
state will take care.

632
00:32:08,599 --> 00:32:11,119
Speaker 2: Of like the door hinges for the landlord and stuff.

633
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 5: So he thought it was just gonna be like a

634
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:17,079
little okay, you shouldn't have been mean, and we're gonna

635
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,079
like pay for something. That's not what happened, though. I

636
00:32:20,119 --> 00:32:23,960
was like, no, no, no, your officer threw my guitar. He goes, well,

637
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,319
I saw you on the bodycam footage and you weren't

638
00:32:27,359 --> 00:32:29,000
being nice. And I was like, I know I wasn't

639
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,359
being nice, but my hands were in the air. I

640
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,880
was not threatening. But did you happen to catch on

641
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,640
the bodycam footage your officer throwing the guitar? He said no,

642
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,920
I didn't see that. I haven't talked to the officer yet.

643
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,559
He just kept stumbling over himself because he thought he

644
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,279
was just gonna slap some stupid long hair musician on

645
00:32:44,319 --> 00:32:47,960
the wrist, of course, but instead he got me, so

646
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,440
I started unloading on him, not again, not knowing he was.

647
00:32:51,519 --> 00:32:53,640
I just thought he was like, yeah, Supervisor, that was

648
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:59,119
not smart. I think you've assumed too much of officer. Well, yeah,

649
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:05,319
in any event, Officer Captain Welsh continuously told me to

650
00:33:05,759 --> 00:33:07,799
not say that his officer was lying. But if his

651
00:33:07,799 --> 00:33:09,839
officer said that he didn't throw the guitar, he's lying,

652
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,319
you know. Like lying is very simple. If if you

653
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,400
know something is the truth and you say the opposite,

654
00:33:14,839 --> 00:33:17,880
then that's a lie. So I kind of got into

655
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:22,440
it with Welsh and they're there now can his head dropped.

656
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,680
He's like, this is not how I thought the conversation

657
00:33:24,839 --> 00:33:27,160
was going to go. Now I have to do an investigation.

658
00:33:27,319 --> 00:33:29,680
And he's, you know, given the whole you know, Officer

659
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,079
earn Hard, he's a good guy.

660
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:32,079
Speaker 2: Of course.

661
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 5: I'm like, I'm like, look man, he's a good guy,

662
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,599
and he made a mistake. This whole time, I've recognized

663
00:33:36,599 --> 00:33:38,839
that it was an accident. Sure, but if I hit

664
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,880
your car tomorrow with my car and it's my fault,

665
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:45,799
I have to pay for that accident. That was a

666
00:33:45,839 --> 00:33:48,440
reason they call it for calling an accident. We just

667
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:49,599
want the guitar replays.

668
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 2: That's it.

669
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,759
Speaker 6: I hope they do the right thing repair replace that. Yeah,

670
00:33:53,759 --> 00:33:54,319
I I don't.

671
00:33:54,359 --> 00:33:55,599
Speaker 2: I don't really care which it is.

672
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 5: But but then I brought Caleb with me and he'll

673
00:33:58,039 --> 00:33:59,680
talk to the This is where Caleb can.

674
00:34:00,559 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 6: So we had the meeting with Officer Welch. I I'm

675
00:34:05,759 --> 00:34:07,799
of the opinion it probably could have gone better.

676
00:34:07,759 --> 00:34:13,280
Speaker 2: But it's all good man, and and you know, I

677
00:34:13,679 --> 00:34:14,760
just I explained to him.

678
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,039
Speaker 6: I was like, I checked out the guitar and I

679
00:34:17,079 --> 00:34:20,840
was like some of this, Yeah, the glue was loosened

680
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,960
up by the water, but some of it to me

681
00:34:23,119 --> 00:34:27,519
kind of looks like impact that case. Yeah, And I

682
00:34:27,519 --> 00:34:29,559
mean the case showed a little bit of scuffing on

683
00:34:29,639 --> 00:34:32,360
the top where the headstock would have been in the case,

684
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:37,440
and that's probably the crappiest part the thing to land on.

685
00:34:37,599 --> 00:34:40,199
But yeah, it's a Strat's a bolt neck guitar, and

686
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,480
it's got a skunk stripe. So it's got the piece

687
00:34:44,519 --> 00:34:46,960
of wood on the back of the neck that contains

688
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:51,079
the trust rod in there, and that piece had delaminated

689
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:52,639
and kind of.

690
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 2: Twisted a little bit.

691
00:34:54,119 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 6: And usually if and I've seen some other flood damage

692
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,519
strats and Telly's that have the skunk strip right, And

693
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,280
usually what happens is the glue gets loosened up a

694
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,679
little bit and it usually uniformly delaminates on one side

695
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:09,840
or the other of the skung stripe. Just yeah, because

696
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,760
the pressure of the wood pushing against itself, it just

697
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,079
wants to uniformly delaminate.

698
00:35:16,039 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 2: It had kind of twisted in there, and.

699
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,119
Speaker 6: I'm looking at it and I'm like, man that you know, yeah,

700
00:35:21,519 --> 00:35:24,559
water loosened it up, But I don't think I don't

701
00:35:24,559 --> 00:35:28,679
think that that neck movement happened, but just by water

702
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,639
water doing it, because I mean, I knew the guitar.

703
00:35:31,679 --> 00:35:35,639
The neck was pretty stable on the thing, and strangely,

704
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,400
even with the impact, the next staid barely stable, like

705
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:40,559
the guitar.

706
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:41,119
Speaker 2: Wasn't in tune.

707
00:35:41,199 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 6: But it definitely it definitely bared. Like I mean, the

708
00:35:45,519 --> 00:35:48,079
body of the guitar is totally fine. It's just the neck. Yeah,

709
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:49,159
just the neck that got.

710
00:35:49,039 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 2: A little bit screeny.

711
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:55,119
Speaker 6: But yeah, yeah, the guitar repairs. Yeah, I just just repaired.

712
00:35:55,159 --> 00:35:56,920
And I took it up and this is a shameless

713
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,400
plug to the music text here in Manchester. They're a great,

714
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,679
great guy, do awesome work. I took it up to

715
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,960
Doug McCormick and Seth oh.

716
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, and yeah, I've known Doug a long time.

717
00:36:07,079 --> 00:36:09,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Doug. Doug's fantastic. Yeah.

718
00:36:09,159 --> 00:36:12,199
Speaker 6: And and Doug wasn't the one who looked at the

719
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:16,679
strat really he he's going to handle another restoration project.

720
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,800
It's actually the second time he's taking on this this guitar,

721
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:24,159
because it's the second time it's been in total disrepair unfortunately.

722
00:36:24,199 --> 00:36:28,719
But the fender he U or Seth looked at the

723
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,480
fender and he was like, yeah, we can at the

724
00:36:30,599 --> 00:36:32,320
very word, you know, at the very worst, we'll just

725
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:33,280
pop a new neck on it.

726
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then that'll be fine.

727
00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:38,320
Speaker 6: And I'm sure he'll find a neck that's like, you know,

728
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:42,400
within ninety percent similar to it. The one thing that well,

729
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,960
we'll kind of suck about that is we won't have

730
00:36:45,039 --> 00:36:47,199
the uh, the serial number on it. It was a

731
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:51,079
it was a two thousand, two thousand neck. And you know,

732
00:36:51,159 --> 00:36:54,280
even if we replace the neck, it permanently devalues the instrument.

733
00:36:54,639 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 2: It's no longer you know, I mean that was it.

734
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,199
Speaker 6: Literally in twenty twenty five, that guitar became a did

735
00:37:00,199 --> 00:37:00,599
the guitar?

736
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 2: You know? Crazy? Yeah, it's really really weird.

737
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,119
Speaker 6: I bought it a couple of years ago, you know,

738
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,760
just as a used strat, just because the studio needed

739
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,199
a strat. We needed something that was serviceable and was

740
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,039
gonna last a long time.

741
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, every track, it's every one of my tracks, a

742
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,599
ton of tunes. I can't think of one song that

743
00:37:24,679 --> 00:37:26,679
I didn't. I mean, the strat is the most first

744
00:37:26,679 --> 00:37:28,480
satile guitar in the history of guitars.

745
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,159
Speaker 2: Arguably I disagree with.

746
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:35,159
Speaker 5: Of course, you know, but I mean it's most most

747
00:37:35,199 --> 00:37:38,360
certainly is one of one of the most iconic, I mean,

748
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:40,639
every you know, if you've ever heard Sweet Home Alabama,

749
00:37:40,679 --> 00:37:41,679
you've heard of Stratocaster.

750
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a picture Jimmy Hendricks right there there.

751
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 3: You Oh yeah, yeah, you're right, you're right.

752
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 6: Some of the most iconic songs you've ever heard. I

753
00:37:50,159 --> 00:37:53,719
recorded on one of them. And you know, I'm not

754
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,239
even really a strat guy.

755
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 2: I just need neither of us, are.

756
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,159
Speaker 3: We just we just need one in the studio, you know,

757
00:38:01,159 --> 00:38:03,199
if you're just joining us, we have Jesse Rutstein and

758
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:07,960
Caleb Dire. I almost sit it again, whatever, I just

759
00:38:08,039 --> 00:38:11,760
say Jesse and Caleb from records word.

760
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,119
Speaker 2: So I didn't mean to wed. I'm sorry.

761
00:38:16,559 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 5: I didn't mean to get so off on that part

762
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,000
of the story because that is such a minuscule piece

763
00:38:22,039 --> 00:38:24,840
of this puzzle. We just hope Nashville PD does the

764
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,360
right thing because I'm doing a lot of shows right now,

765
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:33,480
and like the Bad Burger show that came out like

766
00:38:33,519 --> 00:38:35,960
they just came out swinging. They don't, they're not even

767
00:38:36,679 --> 00:38:39,800
they weren't even really associated with us and came out

768
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,599
swinging and then Peddlers came out and then San Francisco

769
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:47,039
Kitchen and Nashua. So between those three shows alone, we've

770
00:38:47,079 --> 00:38:51,840
done over seven thousand dollars. Yeah, and uh, you can

771
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:56,000
donate through the Salvation Army just so everybody knows. Eleanor

772
00:38:56,119 --> 00:39:00,719
from Terminus New Hampshire Underground set up a link where

773
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:07,000
people can donate and between our contributions and people that

774
00:39:07,159 --> 00:39:09,639
have been coming to the shows, and like we've raised

775
00:39:09,679 --> 00:39:11,880
all this money and we have a really big one

776
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:17,039
coming up on February, February seventh, and and that's going

777
00:39:17,119 --> 00:39:18,719
to be at the Backstreet Bar and Grill. That's going

778
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,920
to be like an all day festival style with some

779
00:39:22,039 --> 00:39:25,440
really great bands to be announced. We haven't gotten confirmation

780
00:39:25,519 --> 00:39:28,599
on every band, but we do know that obviously I'm

781
00:39:28,639 --> 00:39:29,239
going to be there.

782
00:39:29,519 --> 00:39:31,320
Speaker 2: The Faith and Band is going to be there.

783
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,639
Speaker 5: No More Blue Tomorrow's is going to be there, and

784
00:39:34,639 --> 00:39:36,559
and and if I'm I'm missing, I know I'm missing

785
00:39:36,599 --> 00:39:39,239
people and I'm sorry, Dead Harrison, I'm wearing it.

786
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 2: Yeah shirt nice. They're going to be down there too.

787
00:39:42,679 --> 00:39:44,440
I would love to get Dead Time on that bill.

788
00:39:44,599 --> 00:39:48,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, where we're we're working with them. And then on

789
00:39:49,519 --> 00:39:54,280
the is it the sixteenth of this month or seventeenth. See,

790
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:58,039
I had it already the sixteenth. Lacy who I am

792
00:40:00,039 --> 00:40:02,199
when we come down and we're going to do a

793
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,840
show at Photis that weekend also to benefit so excellent.

794
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 2: The thing is, like, I just I really.

795
00:40:09,519 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 5: Want to focus on because I'm not accepting any donations.

796

Jesse rudstein Brand is not accepting any donations, no gofundmes.

797
00:40:18,519 --> 00:40:21,639

Speaker 5: So okay, excellent, good But yeah, it's we're doing We're

824
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:41,000
doing some good, you know, and it stinks that we

825
00:41:41,119 --> 00:41:45,480
have to. That's like, that's a story, right, I'm getting

826
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:48,639
like I wanted to release my record and start gigging

827
00:41:48,679 --> 00:41:51,280
in twenty twenty six to support it.

828
00:41:51,559 --> 00:41:54,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I couldn't wait. I couldn't wait. Yeah, and a

829
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,559
little bit of a delay. Well, but the.

830
00:41:57,599 --> 00:42:00,320
Speaker 5: Amount of exposure that I'm getting from this five here

831
00:42:01,079 --> 00:42:04,039
is probably more than I would have got from the record,

832
00:42:04,119 --> 00:42:07,599
So I'm not trying I'm not trying to capitalize on

833
00:42:07,639 --> 00:42:10,920
a horrible thing. I just it feels good to do

834
00:42:11,079 --> 00:42:14,000
right by the folks, you know, And I just wish

835
00:42:14,039 --> 00:42:16,800
I didn't have to do that, because they.

836
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:20,039
Speaker 2: They It's strange how the world works. It really is, man.

837
00:42:20,639 --> 00:42:23,880
I mean, we just you know, but you keep on

838
00:42:24,079 --> 00:42:24,719
keeping on.

839
00:42:25,079 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 5: Just keep it, keeping it all positive and looking looking

840
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:29,320
to the future.

841
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,880
Speaker 2: Hatchet Action Saw is not dead. We just burned. We

842
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,000
just got burned. On a positive note.

843
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,320
Speaker 6: On a positive note, I have happy news to report

844
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:44,199
about the equipment. So, as Jesse articulated earlier, we really

845
00:42:44,199 --> 00:42:46,159
didn't suffer any fire damage in the basement.

846
00:42:46,159 --> 00:42:47,079
Speaker 2: It's pretty much all.

847
00:42:47,039 --> 00:42:51,599
Speaker 6: Water, so there was a lot of stuff that was submerged. However,

848
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,079
one thing that is pretty good about some of these

849
00:42:54,119 --> 00:42:58,599
old electronics is that they're actually fairly resilient water damage,

850
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,239
especially if you just let it out for a whole

851
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:08,440
long time. So, yeah, the computer was toast, which sucks. However,

852
00:43:09,199 --> 00:43:12,039
the SSDs, we were able to rip them out of

853
00:43:12,039 --> 00:43:14,800
the computer and you know, process that information onto a

854
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:15,360
new machine.

855
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,559
Speaker 2: Excellent. So there's an immediate win.

856
00:43:18,639 --> 00:43:20,559
Speaker 6: That's why we're going to be able to re release

857
00:43:20,679 --> 00:43:23,199
or release anything that we will be able to do

858
00:43:24,119 --> 00:43:28,159
come this March. In addition to that, I've been going

859
00:43:28,199 --> 00:43:31,280
through test and amplifiers. I just last night played a

860
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:35,000
gig with a V four B that we had down there,

861
00:43:35,159 --> 00:43:38,119
very very nice base amp costs quite a bit of money,

862
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:42,199
and two by fifteen, a vintage acoustic two by fifteen

863
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:47,199
cab base cab, and that base rig absolutely slams and

864
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:53,239
that head was totally completely submerged, totally submerged, water, totally underwater.

865
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,159
When I grabbed it out of the basement there were

866
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,320
at least three inches of water on top of where

867
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,440
the handle was. Oh my god, you know, yeah, so

868
00:44:01,559 --> 00:44:04,119
it totally submerged in that amp. When I turned it

869
00:44:04,159 --> 00:44:08,039
on yesterday before I went to or I should say

870
00:44:08,039 --> 00:44:10,800
two days ago testing it for yesterday.

871
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,519
Speaker 2: When I played the gig, it just fired up. That's amazing,

872
00:44:14,679 --> 00:44:18,360
fired right up, and and man it you know, thumped

873
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,119
all the same. That's incredible.

874
00:44:20,159 --> 00:44:24,440
Speaker 6: And I'm expecting that most of the amplifiers, given that

875
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,400
I've given him about four weeks to dry out, most

876
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,239
of the amplifiers I think are going to turn on.

877
00:44:29,519 --> 00:44:33,199
Speaker 2: I haven't tested them all. I've tested the the.

878
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 6: An amplifier that we literally bought in three days before

879
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:38,360
the fire.

880
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 2: Oh really, yeah, Yeah.

881
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,559
Speaker 6: It was a nineteen sixty eight Lafayette is a nice

882
00:44:43,559 --> 00:44:45,679
old vintag jamp. I bought it out in Swansea off

883
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:47,760
of a guy who was an amp technician, and he

884
00:44:48,039 --> 00:44:49,800
knew what he had, but he was just like, yeah,

885
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,679
I'm willing to I'm willing to let this.

886
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,320
Speaker 2: Go and and go to go to a good home. Yeah.

887
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:55,800
And I had put it down there.

888
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:59,760
Speaker 6: I had, I had play tested it, and you know,

889
00:45:00,119 --> 00:45:02,800
and then the fire happens and I'm thinking, I hope

890
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,039
that thing survives. The way that the amp is designed,

891
00:45:06,119 --> 00:45:09,760
it's like taller than it is wide. So the amp

892
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,960
never actually saw water, actually didn't.

893
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:15,920
Speaker 2: The speakers did.

894
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 6: The lower speakers saw water, but the actual amp was

895
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:23,119
totally untouched. And I that was one of the first

896
00:45:23,119 --> 00:45:26,320
amps that I tested, and it just fired right up.

897
00:45:26,559 --> 00:45:28,239
Speaker 2: Nice. There's a lot of.

898
00:45:28,199 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 6: Stuff like That's some stuff that's a little more questionable. Unfortunately,

899
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:36,480
both of my keyboards were totally submerged, even in their

900
00:45:36,559 --> 00:45:40,320
road cases. The b X three, which is a vintage

901
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:45,760
eighties like Corg b X three very it's yeah, right,

902
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,199
literally can't be replaced.

903
00:45:47,199 --> 00:45:51,599
Speaker 5: They stopped making them and it can find when it

904
00:45:51,639 --> 00:45:54,960
costs more than yeah, yeah we should be spending on yeah.

905
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 6: More than what we should be spending on that. And

906
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,920
that thing got soaked and it's still buried in rice

907
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,360
right now, so I'm gonna have to go and vacuum

908
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:03,639
that all.

909
00:46:03,679 --> 00:46:06,280
Speaker 3: Oh so in theory there might be hope still.

910
00:46:06,199 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 5: So so no matter that seems to be the theme. Yes, yes,

911
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:14,039
it's it's miraculous that all these things are surviving.

912
00:46:14,159 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 2: I followed all of.

913
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:19,400
Speaker 6: The procedures and protocols for for salvage and electronics. Man,

914
00:46:19,599 --> 00:46:22,320
so there's there's a high likelihood that it will turn

915
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:26,000
on okay, even if it doesn't work one hundred percent

916
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,000
because this thing was built in like nineteen eighty three

917
00:46:29,039 --> 00:46:32,159
in Japan. There was actually some Japanese person that point

918
00:46:32,199 --> 00:46:35,880
to point wired this whole thing, so you know, it's

919
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:40,039
not built like a modern PCB board equipment.

920
00:46:41,559 --> 00:46:43,559
Speaker 2: So it's it's it's.

921
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,199
Speaker 6: Definitely salvageable no matter what. It's a matter of how

922
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,440
much money do you want to sink actually repairing it,

923
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:53,599
But those sorts of things are worth putting it into.

924
00:46:55,039 --> 00:46:58,920
The The other major thing, which I got a shout

925
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,960
out to my father, Mitch Dyer. He he came down

926
00:47:03,199 --> 00:47:05,239
in a couple of days and he helped lug out

927
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,079
the ham and B three that we had down there,

928
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:11,000
and that that if if I mean if listeners out there,

929
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,440
no HAMM and B three under normal circumstances, generally takes

930
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,559
about four people to move it safely. Yeah, and to

931
00:47:17,639 --> 00:47:20,480
have one that's water logged and all kinds of screwed up.

932
00:47:22,119 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was rough. However, because my.

933
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:29,079
Speaker 6: Father is a mechanical genius, we basically were able to

934
00:47:29,119 --> 00:47:29,960
do it with two people.

935
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:31,199
Speaker 2: Yeah.

936
00:47:31,039 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 6: The way we rigged it up, you know, we locked

937
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:35,320
on the tone wheel and did all we had to

938
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:38,880
do to get it ready to move. But we we

939
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,440
rigged up a chain fall and we just we we

940
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:44,159
took in the building. There's some four inch cast iron

941
00:47:44,199 --> 00:47:47,639
pipe that's just like hanging for for drain lines and stuff. Yeah,

942
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,559
just old old cast iron pipe. It's stuff that guys

943
00:47:50,559 --> 00:47:53,079
wouldn't use today. But it was perfect for us because

944
00:47:53,119 --> 00:47:55,199
we could rig up all kinds of like toast strapping

945
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,920
and chain fall up there and we could support the

946
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,320
weight of this organ just oh my god, for cast

947
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,239
iron pipe with the hang Oh yeah wow. So so

948
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,639
it only took two of us to to actually move

949
00:48:05,639 --> 00:48:06,239
it up and out.

950
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:07,840
Speaker 2: Do you have video of that? Did you take video?

951
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, so we didn't take video, but we we we

952
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:14,079
got pictures of the rag and uh it kind of

953
00:48:14,119 --> 00:48:16,159
surprised people because we did put out a call to help.

954
00:48:16,639 --> 00:48:19,320
That morning, I put out a Facebook post like, hey,

955
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,320
if anyone has extra time this to make this safe,

956
00:48:23,199 --> 00:48:25,320
you know, really even just a pair of eyes or

957
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:29,159
what have you. But but no, we we got it done.

958
00:48:29,119 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 2: Just just the two of us.

959
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:35,280
Speaker 3: Amazing and uh yeah, we we we.

960
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,280
Speaker 6: Absolutely did make it out of there with that B

961
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,480
three within a couple of days that that that thing

962
00:48:40,639 --> 00:48:43,440
is uh, it's gonna get rebuilt, it's gonna go down.

963
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:46,559
And here's another shameless plug to someone who doesn't get

964
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:50,760
nearly enough recognition in the Keys community. Tyler dre Bick

965
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:55,000
down in Summerville at Boss, Oregon. He's actually originally from

966
00:48:55,079 --> 00:48:59,039
up here in New Hampshire and he does incredible work.

967
00:48:59,039 --> 00:49:02,000
He's he's probably and I mean I think he knows this.

968
00:49:02,119 --> 00:49:05,760
He's one of the foremost Hammond organ techs in the world.

969
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,960
He you know, he does ham and teching for you know,

970
00:49:10,159 --> 00:49:12,840
touring act guy guys in touring acts you you know,

971
00:49:15,079 --> 00:49:17,519
and he's gonna be the one who's gonna be taken

972
00:49:17,519 --> 00:49:19,199
on the job. I get to deliver the organ to

973
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,920
him at the end of the month, end of January

974
00:49:23,159 --> 00:49:25,960
or maybe beginning. It kind of depends on when his

975
00:49:26,039 --> 00:49:27,320
space exactly frees up.

976
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 5: But one of the one of the most amazing things

977
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,280
about this situation that just landed in my lap five

978
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:38,639
years ago being a part of Tree Streets Incorporated, Uh,

979
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,880
not only just the support from Dave and Caleb, but

980
00:49:42,599 --> 00:49:45,199
the fact that we had things like a ham and

981
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:49,920
B three with a Leslie rotating cab at our fingertips. Nowadays,

982
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,039
when you hear organ in the song, if you hear

983
00:49:52,199 --> 00:49:55,599
organ in the song, it's it's usually just like a

984
00:49:55,599 --> 00:49:58,360
setting and it's fine, like that's what we do when

985
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:02,280
we play live. But on Lost in It All featuring

986
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,679
Faith in the single that's the single that's uh that we're.

987
00:50:05,679 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 2: Trying to get rolling, Yeah, that's a real organ.

988
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 5: On Dear Baby Gene, which which is a a what

989
00:50:13,159 --> 00:50:15,320
didn't start as as a song that was going to

990
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:19,199
be prominently organ driven. Yeah, it's a real hamm and

991
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,599
it's like it's like what ray Man Xeric used on

992
00:50:21,639 --> 00:50:22,599
those Doors records.

993
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:27,639
Speaker 2: Well, no, he used a Vox but yeah, stop correcting, Not.

994
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:29,840
Speaker 5: That wasn't it.

995
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:30,840
Speaker 2: That wasn't a B three.

996
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 6: No, no, he used a Vox Continental but no, kidding,

997
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:38,079
show my ignorance and a Fender Roads based baby.

998
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 5: I knew about the Fender room. But in any event,

999
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:46,239
it's the fact that we had all these wonderful instruments

1000
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:48,480
and and what Caleb and Dave put together.

1001
00:50:50,199 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 6: It's if you build it, they will come, and I did.

1002
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1003
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 5: But so so we dug into the computer computers for

1004
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:00,880
hard drive.

1005
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:01,679
Speaker 2: Is okay?

1006
00:51:02,199 --> 00:51:04,199
Speaker 5: That the most important thing means we have all the

1007
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:05,559
stems for all the songs.

1008
00:51:05,599 --> 00:51:05,920
Speaker 2: Good.

1009
00:51:06,119 --> 00:51:09,039
Speaker 5: And so the title track of the of the album

1010
00:51:09,119 --> 00:51:12,519
that was meant to be Superhero Toys, and it's a

1011
00:51:12,559 --> 00:51:18,480
song about my son, my son's actually, and they were

1012
00:51:18,519 --> 00:51:22,719
on the track, so I like, I don't want to

1013
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:24,119
give it too much a way about the song, but

1014
00:51:24,119 --> 00:51:27,480
at the end of the song we repeat the chorus

1015
00:51:27,559 --> 00:51:30,400
and all the kids are on it, and we do

1016
00:51:30,519 --> 00:51:33,960
some like Pink Floyd's style like recordings in the background

1017
00:51:34,039 --> 00:51:37,199
of kids like like stuff throughout the years. So, but

1018
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,960
one thing that was really special to me was Junior's

1019
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,639
my son. He's twenty. He's a marine, so he's not around,

1020
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:49,199
and he wanted to take I have my son Jackson

1021
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,000
on the track. There's the last verse is about when

1022
00:51:52,039 --> 00:51:54,639
he's born and how me and Junior now like it's

1023
00:51:54,639 --> 00:51:58,519
our job to make him a man. And he sang

1024
00:51:58,519 --> 00:52:00,800
on this track two years ago when we started it,

1025
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,360
and we just kind of never finished it, but we

1026
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:06,639
decided to add it to the record and it ended

1027
00:52:06,679 --> 00:52:10,440
up becoming the title track, and so Jackson sang on

1028
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:14,280
it again when he was fourteen. So that's the kind

1029
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,320
of stuff I was scared to lose, having him at

1030
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,320
eleven singing on the track, and then having him at fourteen,

1031
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:24,159
so both of those voices were there, Like I can't

1032
00:52:24,159 --> 00:52:26,480
get him at eleven again, I can have him redo

1033
00:52:26,559 --> 00:52:30,199
the track tomorrow we set up. So those are the

1034
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:34,840
things that I was thinking about, and honestly, I felt

1035
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:37,519
selfish every time I thought about it, because these people

1036
00:52:37,559 --> 00:52:38,239
lost their homes.

1037
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:39,840
Speaker 2: I lost some songs, but.

1038
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:41,679
Speaker 5: I got a roof in a bed, which is one

1039
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:44,840
of the main reasons why I was like laser focused

1040
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:49,400
on making sure people knew that I wasn't taking money

1041
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:51,960
from this. I want to make sure people know that

1042
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,199
we are doing everything we can to help the folks

1043
00:52:54,599 --> 00:52:56,159
that no longer have a roof in a bed, like

1044
00:52:56,159 --> 00:52:59,719
they were getting put up at the old middle school.

1045
00:53:00,039 --> 00:53:03,400
Read that's where that's where they were staying. Like I

1046
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,760
was staying in my room, you know what I mean?

1047
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,519
Like I was, I was cooking breakfast the next day

1048
00:53:08,639 --> 00:53:09,320
in my kitchen.

1049
00:53:10,039 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 2: You know, so so I.

1050
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:15,199
Speaker 5: But but now that we are making sure that in

1051
00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:18,159
the Salvation Army has been great. I forget the gentleman's

1052
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,719
name that was the contact. I believe it's Dave something,

1053
00:53:21,039 --> 00:53:24,639
but he's working closely with the families to make sure

1054
00:53:24,639 --> 00:53:26,559
that that all our donations are going through.

1055
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 2: And good. Now now that and I.

1056
00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:33,800
Speaker 5: Jokingly said, like the first week after all this, because

1057
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,079
any anybody who sees me so the news, you know

1058
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:40,360
what's going on with the fire all, I like, I'm like,

1059
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,599
I'll be sad next month about my music because I

1060
00:53:42,639 --> 00:53:46,440
thought it was gone, and now it's my month to

1061
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:48,760
be sad about. You know, I could be a little

1062
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:51,679
bit selfish. And I get a text from Dave the

1063
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,800
other night. I was literally out having a couple a

1064
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:58,679
couple drinks at the Blues blues Bar and I look

1065
00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:00,840
I looked down at the phone and they sent me

1066
00:54:01,039 --> 00:54:06,960
a message with all my folders. Yeah, man, I cried.

1067
00:54:07,079 --> 00:54:10,599
I cried at the bar. I don't even wow, just

1068
00:54:10,679 --> 00:54:13,719
like tears filled my eyes and it's all there.

1069
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,639
Speaker 2: It's all there. You don't know when we're going to

1070
00:54:16,679 --> 00:54:17,000
mix it.

1071
00:54:17,079 --> 00:54:19,159
Speaker 5: I'm gonna put a I'm gonna put a date on

1072
00:54:19,199 --> 00:54:21,280
it at some point, but right now, what we're going

1073
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:24,480
to do is we're going to re release my EP

with merchandise and start getting out there and uh playing

1075
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,559

1076
00:54:32,559 --> 00:54:34,800

1077
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:38,519

00:55:23,679 --> 00:55:26,159

1097
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,480
What's a good February date. Well, it happened. February ninth

1098
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,360
happens to be the sixty thirty anniversary of when the

1099
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,000
greatest band of all time appeared on the Ed Sullivan

1100
00:55:43,039 --> 00:55:46,719
Show and change rock and roll, you know, and and

1101
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,559
and pretty much made me want to do what I

1102
00:55:49,599 --> 00:55:51,480
want to do, you know, through.

1103
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:52,320
Speaker 2: My father and stuff.

1104
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:56,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, excuse me, so everything, everything has a special date.

1105
00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,880
But I really wanted to come out on the seventeenth.

originals that made it through Nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's

1110
00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:15,440

00:56:15,519 --> 00:56:16,320
unheard by the world.

1112
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,320
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, this absolutely.

1113
00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 6: Wonder this, this fire has kind of made me realize

1114
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:23,840
that I should probably just publish it.

1115
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, good, good, Well we look forward to that. Guys,

1116
