But uh yeah, I mean what inspired you 68 00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:31,040 to uh what inspired you to write that song? 69 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,399 Speaker 4: Not not that you have to look too. 70 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,759 Speaker 5: Deeply into the lyrics to figure out the meaning. A 71 00:05:35,879 --> 00:05:38,600 righty is for pretty direct, which. 72 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,079 Speaker 8: I love front. So the spark for the song, which 73 00:05:42,439 --> 00:05:47,800 uh became the original bass of the song, came out. 74 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,839 I was sitting in my home studio and uh, I 75 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:57,680 was looking to record something else. I need to get closer. 76 00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 3: Uh. 77 00:06:00,639 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 8: I was attempting to record something else and having some 78 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:10,920 technical issues and I needed a break. So I started 79 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,319 scrolling on my phone and it was right when they 80 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,839 had released the report that they that Don Lemon had 81 00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:19,519 been arrested. 82 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:19,879 Speaker 5: Ah. 83 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 8: Yes, and I literally just shut the phone off, put 84 00:06:24,879 --> 00:06:31,920 it down, sat back and went. They kidnapped Don Lemon 85 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:37,319 but left us Hannity and my brain went and ten 86 00:06:37,399 --> 00:06:41,120 minutes later I had ninety percent of the lyrics written. 87 00:06:41,959 --> 00:06:44,279 I didn't overthink the music, which is weird for me, 88 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,160 but just sat down and strummed a couple of chords. 89 00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:52,160 And you know, I can't say I've always been an 90 00:06:52,399 --> 00:06:56,639 overly political person, but I've had my beliefs. I have 91 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,720 stayed true to those beliefs for most of my life. Yeah, 92 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,600 And one of those beliefs is that most politicians, most presidents, 93 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:10,160 are not the best, not the best. I think some 94 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,120 have great intentions. I think they all think they have 95 00:07:13,279 --> 00:07:17,199 great intentions, but my perspective on what has gone on 96 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:24,199 over this past year is complete ridiculousness. Whether you agree 97 00:07:24,279 --> 00:07:28,240 with the policies or not, the show is ridiculous, ridiculous. 98 00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:30,839 So I made a ridiculous song. 99 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 5: How do you describe the style of that song, like 100 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,519 in terms of the genre. I mean, it reminds me 101 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,279 of something you might hear in a bar on St. 102 00:07:41,319 --> 00:07:42,000 Patrick's Stay. 103 00:07:42,079 --> 00:07:45,639 Speaker 8: That was I don't know that that was the intent, 104 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,240 but the delivery brought it there. 105 00:07:48,519 --> 00:07:49,079 Speaker 4: Yeah. 106 00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 8: I certainly if I were to envision the perfect scenario 107 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,600 of playing that in a live situation, it would probably be, 108 00:07:59,199 --> 00:08:03,199 you know, at the Strange Brew tavern on Saint Patrick's Day, 109 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,120 right right, with everybody swaying and yeah yeah, everybody kind 110 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,680 of saying, got that six eight feel of We're just 111 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,600 gonna clank our glasses, which if you listen in the background, 112 00:08:12,639 --> 00:08:15,560 there is actually two beer bottles being clanked on the beat. 113 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,399 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, So that style of song. Because you know, 114 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,319 we have a couple of your your studio tracks from 115 00:08:23,399 --> 00:08:25,879 from earlier in your career, but you never recorded anything 116 00:08:25,959 --> 00:08:29,800 quite like that. Nore right, No, yeah, no, is it 117 00:08:30,399 --> 00:08:32,200 the way that it came out? Is it kind of 118 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,200 exactly the way you heard it in your mind or yeah, yep. 119 00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 8: The minute I finished the lyrics, although those aren't the 120 00:08:40,399 --> 00:08:43,440 all the original lyrics, but the when I heard it 121 00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:45,799 in my head as I was writing it, I think 122 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,919 it was very much that flogging Molly's drop kick Murphy's, 123 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,279 which it's it's kind of been compared to Wow, it's 124 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,440 got that vibe, and it does, and it was, but 125 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,159 I think it's a little more over the top vocally, yeah, 126 00:08:59,279 --> 00:09:01,440 than that kind of stuff. And it was because that's 127 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:02,919 how I wanted the message delivered. 128 00:09:03,159 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 5: Right. 129 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,639 Speaker 8: It's not the news that makes me think this, it's 130 00:09:06,759 --> 00:09:11,879 watching who the song is about, right, And that's that's 131 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,440 how he comes across to me. That's how I hear him, Like, 132 00:09:14,519 --> 00:09:17,320 if he really spoke the way his character wanted to, 133 00:09:17,879 --> 00:09:19,159 that's how he would sound. 134 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 5: Right, right. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense, that makes sense. No, 135 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:24,320 I love it, of course. 136 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 3: You know. 137 00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 5: We were very happy to do the world radio premiere 138 00:09:26,519 --> 00:09:27,039 of it here on and. 139 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 8: I thank you for that.

So is part of the idea. 412 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,319 Speaker 5: Are you looking to work with people you've worked with 413 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:12,200 before or. 414 00:26:14,319 --> 00:26:17,880 Speaker 8: To start Yes, yeah, I think having been out of 415 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,640 the actual scene if they're you know, if you want 416 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:27,039 to refer to the area as a scene, I've been 417 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,400 largely out of it for about fifteen years, with the 418 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,880 exception of doing cover bands and doing some solo acoustic 419 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,759 shows here and there, I haven't really been part of 420 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:42,359 the creative scene in well over a decade, maybe closer 421 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:46,920 to two decades. So reaching out to the people that 422 00:26:47,039 --> 00:26:51,799 I know, I think is the easy start because there's 423 00:26:51,799 --> 00:26:55,200 a lot of players out there that I've heard, not 424 00:26:55,319 --> 00:26:58,319 only where we practice. There's a lot of bands over there, 425 00:26:58,359 --> 00:26:59,839 and you get an opportunity to hear. 426 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 4: Whereas over at Morgan Organs. 427 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:06,039 Speaker 8: Yeah, and I am starting to tiptoe my way back 428 00:27:06,079 --> 00:27:08,960 out there to places like Bad Burger where they're they're 429 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:13,720 hosting a lot of original stuff, which is awesome. I 430 00:27:13,799 --> 00:27:16,759 feel like the original scene, if I can kind of 431 00:27:17,319 --> 00:27:23,240 vocally meander for a little bite, was amazing Back in 432 00:27:23,319 --> 00:27:29,559 the day. I'd say around ninety eight ninety nine you 433 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,720 really started to see there was a lot of bands 434 00:27:31,759 --> 00:27:33,559 in the area, but there was really no place to 435 00:27:33,599 --> 00:27:36,559 play original stuff, so you kind of had to get creative. 436 00:27:37,599 --> 00:27:44,400 But i'd say two thousand and one it really kicked 437 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,960 off around here. Like you, you felt the energy if 438 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,720 you were part of the scene. You had Mad Bobs, 439 00:27:50,839 --> 00:27:53,559 you had the Uptown Tavern, you had the Black Brimmer, 440 00:27:54,599 --> 00:27:58,079 the bomb Shelter, the bombshell, my god, the bomb. 441 00:27:57,839 --> 00:28:02,279 Speaker 4: Shelter wonderful and not so wonderful memories right right. 442 00:28:02,599 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 8: But you had places that really were supporting the creativity 443 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,960 of the area, the energy of the area, and I 444 00:28:10,039 --> 00:28:12,319 think that built quite a bit. And then you you 445 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,279 ended up having the Rage Rock Radio, you had spider 446 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,400 Bite Radio. You had so many people in the area 447 00:28:18,519 --> 00:28:22,359 that even if they weren't musicians, were helping to really 448 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,559 prop the scene up. And it was awesome. Yeah, And 449 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,839 somewhere around two thousand and five, two thousand and six, 450 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,799 I feel like it just kind of went hmm, and 451 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,119 now it's like there there's there's some rumblings that it 452 00:28:36,319 --> 00:28:40,839 feels like that ninety eight, ninety nine, two thousand is 453 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,279 kind of vibe where people in the area are like, Okay, 454 00:28:44,319 --> 00:28:46,599 I'm kind of sick of having to go out to Boston, right, 455 00:28:47,279 --> 00:28:48,799 and they're starting to build it. 456 00:28:49,039 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 4: Here's what it feels like. 457 00:28:50,559 --> 00:28:52,039 Speaker 8: And I hope that that's the case. 458 00:28:52,319 --> 00:28:52,519 Speaker 4: Yeah. 459 00:28:52,599 --> 00:28:54,839 Speaker 5: Well, there's so much incredible talent around here.

My dad, you know, he passed 481 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,799 away not long ago, but he used to say that 482 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,039 we live in a golden age of music because there's 483 00:29:45,079 --> 00:29:45,599 so much of it. 484 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:52,119 Speaker 8: Yeah, you know it's true. Yeah, it's true. And I 485 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:59,000 think it's difficult too. And we were talking about this 486 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,400 before we we went on There is is, there's this 487 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,319 this also, so when I talk about the the scene brewing, 488 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,960 I'm talking about the twenty somethings. 489 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,559 Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, and we are not that. 490 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 8: We have been that and we've lived that. But you know, 491 00:30:17,599 --> 00:30:19,519 you and I, if we're talking candidly. 492 00:30:20,079 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 4: We're we're a little older. 493 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:26,799 Speaker 8: We're a little older, and most of us as musicians. 494 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:34,559 Being around my age, we took time off for whatever reason, 495 00:30:34,599 --> 00:30:38,440 whether there was to to raise our kids, to pursue 496 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,200 a career that actually paid the bills. But I find 497 00:30:43,279 --> 00:30:46,960 that there's a lot of people our age that are 498 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:51,359 rekindling that love and reigniting. Not that they ever forgot, 499 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,640 but but we put it aside. Yeah, for whatever whatever 500 00:30:55,759 --> 00:30:59,279 the reason. Yeah, And it's kind of like fifty ish 501 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,599 is where where it starts going. Oh, I can open 502 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:07,119 this back up again. Like me fifteen years or so 503 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,599 without writing a song, It's like, I still have something 504 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:10,000 to say. 505 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 4: Yeah. 506 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 8: It doesn't mean I think the whole world is going 507 00:31:12,759 --> 00:31:16,160 to grab onto it, but I still have something to say. 508 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,960 I didn't do it in my twenties. I mean, I 509 00:31:19,079 --> 00:31:21,880 think when you're younger, you get that rock star mentality, 510 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,480 like I want to be a rock star, But at 511 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,319 the core of it, especially within the jam room, you're 512 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,559 just doing it for the love of I have something 513 00:31:30,599 --> 00:31:33,200 to say, and these guys have something to play and 514 00:31:33,319 --> 00:31:39,279 it sounds great together. And I think we're at fifty 515 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:44,880 plus we're relearning that we just love to play and 516 00:31:45,039 --> 00:31:47,319 we still have something to say, and we're not dead yet. 517 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,720 And I think I told you, you know, I kind 518 00:31:49,759 --> 00:31:54,240 of coined it for myself. It's like there's an un 519 00:31:54,359 --> 00:31:58,359 young revolution that's going on that really didn't happen with 520 00:31:58,519 --> 00:32:01,559 the generation prior to to us. You know, they got 521 00:32:01,599 --> 00:32:04,680 to forty or fifty, and the thing was, now it's 522 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:10,279 a sprint to retirement and relaxation and sitting on the 523 00:32:10,519 --> 00:32:14,119 front porch screaming, get off my lawn. Right, And that's 524 00:32:14,319 --> 00:32:15,079 that's not us. 525 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,359 Speaker 4: No, it's not even a thought in my head. 526 00:32:17,519 --> 00:32:20,519 Speaker 5: Right, I've always thought, although this is something I've always 527 00:32:20,559 --> 00:32:22,720 thought my whole life. It's weird to me when people 528 00:32:22,839 --> 00:32:26,880 talk about, oh, I can't wait till I'm retired, you know, 529 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,119 and just relax. It's like, really, you're looking forward to 530 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,720 being old and not having any use anymore. 531 00:32:33,039 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 8: I mean, I love the idea of relaxation. I mean, 532 00:32:35,519 --> 00:32:37,799 I'm a photographer, I mean musician, I work a full 533 00:32:37,839 --> 00:32:40,119 time job. I got a wife at all. Yeah, he's 534 00:32:40,359 --> 00:32:42,000 you know, pretty much two kids. 535 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 16: Yeah. 536 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,839 Speaker 8: I mean, relaxation is nice, but I can't stay idle, 537 00:32:47,039 --> 00:32:50,039 no meaning I don't know many people our age that can't. 538 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 9: No. 539 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 8: No, yeah, especially in the art scene. 540 00:32:53,519 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 5: Well, it's like I was saying to you, too. I've 541 00:32:55,599 --> 00:32:59,000 I've always felt that, you know, you can't help getting older, 542 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:00,960 you can't help the past sage of time. But getting 543 00:33:01,119 --> 00:33:02,440 old is a choice. 544 00:33:02,839 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 8: And we harkened to what was it clinicood, just don't 545 00:33:07,559 --> 00:33:08,039 let the old man. 546 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:09,799 Speaker 5: He's the first one I ever heard saying I think 547 00:33:09,839 --> 00:33:12,680 that's saying predates him, but probably yeah, yeah, but yeah, 548 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,799 don't let the old man.

Luckily with the acoustic stuff, I 773 00:46:23,599 --> 00:46:27,280 can kind of I've got a long list of songs 774 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,639 that I play, so I can kind of you can 775 00:46:30,119 --> 00:46:33,440 carefully craft that so that it doesn't hurt too much. 776 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,239 But I think at this point I'm strong enough that 777 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:39,079 a two nighter doesn't completely kill me, although there is 778 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:43,079 much harder stuff that I do with the cover band. Vocally, yeah, 779 00:46:43,079 --> 00:46:44,679 I can imagine you should come and see that. 780 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:45,039 Speaker 13: Though. 781 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:52,760 Speaker 8: It's a great time.

Yeah, 784 00:47:02,039 --> 00:47:02,719 it's all fun. 785 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:03,079 Speaker 4: Yeah. 786 00:47:03,639 --> 00:47:05,079 Speaker 5: Why is it called Forever forty one? 787 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,519 Speaker 8: So so there's actually two singers in the band. It's 788 00:47:08,559 --> 00:47:09,559 myself and Jess Vaughn. 789 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 4: Okay, oh, yes, I'm sorry. 790 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,199 Speaker 8: She actually asked me to tell you. 791 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,599 Speaker 5: She said he I'll be damn from Oh my God, 792 00:47:17,639 --> 00:47:20,199 I'm blanking on the name. Oh, she's gonna kill me 793 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,880 me too, Because I've interviewed her a bunch of times 794 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:26,000 over the years in that band and now I'm blanking 795 00:47:26,039 --> 00:47:26,480 on the name. 796 00:47:26,679 --> 00:47:29,079 Speaker 8: Yeah, sorry, Jess, Sorry, sorry Jess. 797 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 5: It'll it'll come to me when I'm not thinking about it. 798 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:33,199 Speaker 9: Yeah. 799 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,559 Speaker 8: So she sings in the band as well. Okay, now 800 00:47:37,639 --> 00:47:39,639 I got lost. I took a left turn and then 801 00:47:39,679 --> 00:47:44,679 got lost. Oh, Forever forty one. Yeah, so there was 802 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,719 a store I think it was called Forever twenty one. Yes, 803 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,679 and Jess kind of threw it. I think it'd be 804 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,599 funny if we did Forever forty one. 805 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:54,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 806 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 8: We're not gonna get any older than forty one, that's it. Yeah, 807 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:01,320 And it kind of lends it because if you're forty one, 808 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,440 you're gonna know most of the songs that we do. 809 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 4: Right, And so. 810 00:48:07,039 --> 00:48:09,199 Speaker 8: It was a little bit silly, but it was like, yeah, 811 00:48:09,199 --> 00:48:11,719 that that works. Yeah, I'll be forever forty one. 812 00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 5: There. 813 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:13,159 Speaker 8: That wasn't the worst. 814 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:17,280 Speaker 4: No, no, this is a good edge. Is she still 815 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:18,239 in that other band than? 816 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:18,519 Speaker 9: Oh? 817 00:48:18,599 --> 00:48:20,280 Speaker 4: Wait?
