Speaker 1 (00:37):
Bringing the storm Monica Fuel Full Metal Orchestra at Wilfrigarina,
christ Church, November.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
First, you're listening to Radiohodarchy. That was Long White Cross
from Pluto, and I've got Milan from Pluto sitting on
the couch with me. He's part of the Formula Orchestra lineup.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
How are you doing pretty well?
Speaker 5 (00:53):
Thank you very much. It's a pretty sunny day here
in Christchurch and we're all enjoying our job.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
That's great. Good.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
So with the lineup, is there a song that's been
particularly hard to learn for you?
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Let me think about that one.
Speaker 5 (01:08):
For a second here, I would say it would have
to be raining Blood because I have not always been
a slack fan.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
I came late to the party.
Speaker 5 (01:15):
But yeah, that song in particular, just the lyrics are
so like Dungeons and Dragons that you know I used
to play, but I don't play anymore. So it was
it was. You know, it's a fun song to do,
so I'm enjoying it now, but it was. It was
the toughest for me.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
And you get to a bit of dress up for
that one, though, I do. Yes, I'm not gonna spoil
it though, but it's not Halloween. But I dressed up
as a hot dog last night for Halloween, just say,
with mustard and sauce.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, and I'm vegetarian.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Yeah, could have been a vegan sausage.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
It could have been. It could have been. So I've
got a question if you just dip into the bucket.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Yes, Oh, there we go. Okay, do I read it out?
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Yeah? Read it out?
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
One thing you can't tour without. Okay, Well, there's three things,
and it's a set of things. So for the longest
time since my father passed away, I've had his ring,
his broken watch, and his gold chain. And so I
have a ritual that I do before I get onto
a flight, and I have to kiss each one of
those those objects and then kiss the plane. So I've
(02:15):
done that for years now. And yeah, that's those are
the three things they can't tour without.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
That's amazing. I was just looking at your watch and
your ring and your necklace. It's not those ones.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
So it is really.
Speaker 5 (02:27):
This is the copy of my my father's broken watch.
But I have the broken watch in the hotel and
I have it in my pocket ready to go to
kiss all three of them.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
I'm very superstitious.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
I think you have to be in the arts, don't you?
To sound extent? Pull out one more question?
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Eh, one question?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
One more question?
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Here we go. Oh god, that's a long one.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Oh oh god, No, okay, I put some curly ones
in there, and ah.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
You're okay.
Speaker 5 (02:58):

have to be it would, yeah, it would have to be.

Fantastic and it wasn't the wasn't the warmest in mornings,

what happens when you request a really good room.

Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Yeah, pinhouse means you've got a long walk down those
stairs because I don't use the elevators and fires, do

real pleasure to play with this band, with all of
our friends, these amazing tunes with an incredible conduction orchestra
and Phil Rudd to put the icing on the cake.
It doesn't get better.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
I can't wait.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
And I know that there's lots of people who are
driving to the gig right now who are amped to
get out the front and just rock on.
Speaker 6 (05:29):
You drive carefully if you're turning your stereo up and
you're listening to Master of Puppets or something like, just
just be careful. Still stop at the red lights.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Say yeah, it's good to stop at red lights. Absolutely,

Yeah. Yeah, it's great fun. It says that relentlessly good.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Tracks all night, bangers all night. It's just banger after
banger after banger. So you've got a question that you've
pulled from our bucket of truth. I don't know what
I'm calling it, but well the name will evolve as
the night goes on. Do you want to read it
out to us and let us know your answer? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (06:59):
First album you ever owned?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
What was it?
Speaker 8 (07:02):
I've been thinking about it and it's between two and
I remember getting them at the same time. I think
I got them at the same time, and it was
a battle of Los Angeles by Rage Yeah and Weezer.
The Blue Album.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Interesting.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
I think I got them at the same on the
same day, and they wouldn't let me buy it because
I wasn't old enough the Rage one, so I had
to get my mom to come down to the CD store.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Because it was a CD. It was not en Vine,
it was a CDCD.
Speaker 8 (07:28):
It was a CD store. Yeah, like a Sounds I think.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Yeah, and they used to have that was an explicit
lyrics parental guidance. That sticker on the front was there
was rage against the Machine was pretty full on.
Speaker 8 (07:39):
Yeah, they swear lots.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Yeah, so that were you're going back what nineteen ninety.
Speaker 8 (07:43):
Three, seven, eight ninety eight.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Yeah, and so did you thrash those albums pretty hard?
Speaker 8 (07:50):
Yeah, totally Yeah, yeah, a lot, all the way through
high school and everything. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
So as a little sneak and tonight, is there any
rage against the Machine on the playlist?
Speaker 8 (08:00):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (08:01):

Speaker 8 (08:04):

a big announcement saying, hey, sorry about that. You can
get free breakfast. And so that was basically okay, right,

Speaker 9 (09:33):
Someone someone pointed that out to me while we're on

like a rock and roll John Cusack, and then my
bandmates started calling me John Bullsack.

So as we say in rock and Rock on Man
Grady Hurd Music, you're listening to Radio Hold acting with BEG.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
We are live at wolf Brook Arena for for medal
orchestra at warm up gig party.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
We just heard Tool was sober and I've.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Got Brett on the couch with me. Brett is playing
the guitar and the band tonight.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
How's it all going, Hi, it's going great.
Speaker 8 (10:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (10:18):
We've been working all day with the orchestra and it's
a lot of fun.
Speaker 8 (10:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Have you ever played with an orchestra before this gig?
Speaker 7 (10:27):
A couple of times yeah, maybe maybe maybe two or
three times, but never playing metal, heavy rock. Yeah, I
have done it. But it's great combination strings with heavy
guitar riffs. It's they go together.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Well, I can imagine.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
So for all the guitar nerdes out there, what guitars
are you playing tonight?
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Just wonder if you've got a collection.
Speaker 7 (10:48):
I've got I've got three. No, I've got four down here,
because there's there's different tunings, like I won't say the songs,
but some of them, some of them have very low
tuning to tune right down to see. So I've got
special guitars for that, Ben jazz Master for that. I've
got a hot rotted strap for older stuff because the
sort of eighties shreddy type stuff that really works well.
(11:08):
And then a couple of Gibson's for the heavy riffy
stuff that sort of worked for everything.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Yeah, what's your favorite out of all of the It
changes all the time.
Speaker 7 (11:19):
Probably probably probably the Gibson's overall. Yeah, Les Paul, Yeah, the.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Lis Paul's great sound day.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Yeah it is. It's fat and it never never let
lets you down. It's always there. I don't have to
fall around with the eqs and you know, treble and
bas knobs too much.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Just reliable.
Speaker 8 (11:37):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Yeah, Hey, we've got this question bucket in front of us.
Do you want to have a dig in and let
me know what question you've picked out.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Yep, And my question is first song you learn to play,
the first song I ever learned to play. I'm afraid
it's not very metal. It's a black Magic Woman by Santana.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Actually it's not.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
It's by Fleetwood Mac Peter Green wrote that, but Santana
had a huge hit with it, and that was the
first song I learnt on sort of taught myself on
electric guitar, and I played it until people really wanted
me to stop playing, and I just played it over
and over again until people said, try something else. But yeah,
so I can't listen to that song anymore because I
(12:21):
just played it to death.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Thrashed out.
Speaker 7 (12:22):
It's easy because it's three Well it's not easy, but
it's to play it like that, but it's three chords,
so it's.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You know, but it sounds quite technical. It's quite a
technical like when you hear anything Santana this.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
Dude, I suppose it does. Yeah, but it's actually fairly
easy playing the way.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Black Magic Woman from Santana. I reckon.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
We'll try and get that one on the radio right
now after these commercial breaks.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Hey, thanks Brett, thank you.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Tracks all night, bangers all night. It's just banger after
banger after banger. So you've got a question that you've
pulled from our bucket of truth. I don't know what
I'm calling it, but well the name will evolve as
the night goes on. Do you want to read it
out to us and let us know your answer? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (06:59):
First album you ever owned?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
What was it?
Speaker 8 (07:02):
I've been thinking about it and it's between two and
I remember getting them at the same time. I think
I got them at the same time, and it was
a battle of Los Angeles by Rage Yeah and Weezer.
The Blue Album.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Interesting.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
I think I got them at the same on the
same day, and they wouldn't let me buy it because
I wasn't old enough the Rage one, so I had
to get my mom to come down to the CD store.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Because it was a CD. It was not en Vine,
it was a CDCD.
Speaker 8 (07:28):
It was a CD store. Yeah, like a Sounds I think.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Yeah, and they used to have that was an explicit
lyrics parental guidance. That sticker on the front was there
was rage against the Machine was pretty full on.
Speaker 8 (07:39):
Yeah, they swear lots.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Yeah, so that were you're going back what nineteen ninety.
Speaker 8 (07:43):
Three, seven, eight ninety eight.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Yeah, and so did you thrash those albums pretty hard?
Speaker 8 (07:50):
Yeah, totally Yeah, yeah, a lot, all the way through
high school and everything. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:56):

rage against the Machine on the playlist?

the guitar and the band tonight.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
How's it all going, Hi, it's going great.
Speaker 8 (10:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (10:18):
We've been working all day with the orchestra and it's
a lot of fun.
Speaker 8 (10:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Have you ever played with an orchestra before this gig?
Speaker 7 (10:27):
A couple of times yeah, maybe maybe maybe two or
three times, but never playing metal, heavy rock. Yeah, I
have done it. But it's great combination strings with heavy
guitar riffs. It's they go together.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Well, I can imagine.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
So for all the guitar nerdes out there, what guitars
are you playing tonight?
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Just wonder if you've got a collection.
Speaker 7 (10:48):
I've got I've got three. No, I've got four down here,
because there's there's different tunings, like I won't say the songs,
but some of them, some of them have very low
tuning to tune right down to see. So I've got
special guitars for that, Ben jazz Master for that. I've
got a hot rotted strap for older stuff because the
sort of eighties shreddy type stuff that really works well.
(11:08):
And then a couple of Gibson's for the heavy riffy
stuff that sort of worked for everything.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Yeah, what's your favorite out of all of the It
changes all the time.
Speaker 7 (11:19):
Probably probably probably the Gibson's overall. Yeah, Les Paul, Yeah, the.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Lis Paul's great sound day.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Yeah it is. It's fat and it never never let
lets you down. It's always there. I don't have to
fall around with the eqs and you know, treble and
bas knobs too much.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Just reliable.
Speaker 8 (11:37):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Yeah, Hey, we've got this question bucket in front of us.
Do you want to have a dig in and let
me know what question you've picked out.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Yep, And my question is first song you learn to play,
the first song I ever learned to play. I'm afraid
it's not very metal. It's a black Magic Woman by Santana.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Actually it's not.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
It's by Fleetwood Mac Peter Green wrote that, but Santana
had a huge hit with it, and that was the
first song I learnt on sort of taught myself on
electric guitar, and I played it until people really wanted
me to stop playing, and I just played it over
and over again until people said, try something else. But yeah,
so I can't listen to that song anymore because I
(12:21):
just played it to death.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Thrashed out.
Speaker 7 (12:22):
It's easy because it's three Well it's not easy, but
it's to play it like that, but it's three chords,
so it's.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You know, but it sounds quite technical. It's quite a
technical like when you hear anything Santana this.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
Dude, I suppose it does. Yeah, but it's actually fairly
easy playing the way.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Black Magic Woman from Santana. I reckon.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
We'll try and get that one on the radio right
now after these commercial breaks.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Hey, thanks Brett, thank you.
