Speaker 1 (00:15):
All right.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
So we had some people send a note in go
ahead if you need to sneeze or cough, or if
you got a part too, that's fine, we don't want it.
Just looked you made a face like you were and
I accidentally started talking right when you did it. You sure, yeah, okay.
We got a text right at the end of the show,
people asking who we thought was gonna be at Rockahoma,
because I know we are getting close to who that's
gonna be. And there's a's this year's really tough, I
(00:38):
think to pick you think so, yeah, because we haven't
seen all these summer tour plans yet, so it's hard
to see who it's going to be. And this year,
for sure, we have no connection to them at all,
so we don't know who it's going to. Usually they
give us kind of an insight, but who do you
(00:59):
Who do you have down? Do you have anybody you think?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
I have three acts down, but they're more of like
a wish list, okay, and I kind of feel like
the two of the three would be probably way too expensive.
But Guns and Roses because they are they are touring
(01:21):
throughout the fall, I think throughout either October or November.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
They're a tour that's actually one that is doing a
lot of festivals. But the reason they won't be able
to is they the dates don't work right, so they
are completely out of the picture, right, and they're not
too expensive. Well, Rock Oklahoma, they've been there, they've been
there before this year, they're not because they've definitely are
they've changed how much because they're they've changed the uh there.
(01:46):
I think they're pay structure because they're doing a lot
more festivals, okay. And then food Fighters fool Fighters. What's
the food Fighters? I think the Food Fighters is a possibility,
I think, and they are doing like some dates. I
just don't I don't think it's I think it's probably
like sixty percent.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Okay, really, I think it's less than that. I'm more
of than like twenty five percent. Price point is what it.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Is, okay.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
And then the other band on my list is my
Chemical Romance.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
So my Chemical Romance is the one that I have
that it's probably that's who it's going to be based
on the routing schedules that I've seen. Yeah, that feels
like that is the one, and they're doing a lot
of two shows. The only asterisk is. I don't know
if it's the right crowd for a headliner. They've been
there before, they have My Chemical Romance has played Rockklahoma.
Weren't they there last year? No? No, year before last? No?
(02:42):
Uh last. I'm looking darkness. I don't see them on
last one. Less things. I believe it nothing Gaull loves
how about it? The darkness? The darkness, That's who it was.
They all sound the same.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
I did see a story about my Chemical Romance, so
that they apparently they have disappear year it off of social.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Media, I mean whatever, some marketing thing, right, But that's
the one that I have is the most likely to
because they're doing festival circuits, they're doing Louder than Life,
Sonic Temple, rock Field, so it's not out of the realm.
What about you Gimpee? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
I thought Guns n' Roses definitely, because there are touring
until you brought that up. God Smack is another one,
you know, even though they had to replace a few people.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
I did think them too, But then I was like,
they were just here what two years ago?
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Or that means nothing? I know, that means nothing at all.
Five Finger Death Punch.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
They were just here last year. I think if they do,
I think it's fair to put them on the list,
but I think that it would be I don't think
it's a good move to bring them.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Probably right now, the Offspring is out doing some of
these festivals and they haven't been to Rockklahoma, and I
think at least a decade.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
No, that's true, and I had them down on my list,
so I think it is possible. They haven't released all
their summer dates right so, which I could get down
on that. Yeah, I think my Chemical Romance for sure.
I think breaking Benjamin is possible. I think shine Down
is possible. I don't love that only as they were
(04:13):
just here. I think Hollywood Undead is a big one,
especially with drug since he lives here. I think it's
because they moved their weed thing here. So I think
it's possible. But I think the one that we're going
to see, especially off the last time they were here
a Cogira. I think we can see them. I just
(04:35):
don't know if they're a headliner. And here's another asterisk,
I think that's out there. I think Megadeth okay, they
played rock Lahoma before pop a Roach also and there
was another Iron Maiden Mistiketson played last year. They're doing
(04:58):
some dates. I don't they're going to be in Europe,
so I don't know if they're gonna be able to
hit a Labor Day date here, but I think that's
a good one to throw out there as a possibility. Yeah,
they'll just top on ed Force one flyer on over here.
They don't. He doesn't have it anymore. He sold it. Huh,
you got rid of it. Yeah, I ain't to ask something.
I think Bring me the Horizon is a possibility. They're
(05:19):
doing a bunch of festivals this year, Okay, Ice nine
kills coheedon Cambria is a possibility, right, and I think
they played two years ago, yeah, and killed Static x
Static X.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Don't know if they played Roklahoma, but they were here
played Yeah, it was that total theater not too long ago. Yeah,
last year or year before last, something like that.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
That'd be fun. Yeah, I saw some lists where Manson
is a possibility. I don't know. People will look at
other festivals and go, oh, we if they're playing that festival,
they've got to do Rockaholma. I don't know if that's true.
But he played last year, right, break again. That does
not matter Brankie Benjamin did the year before that. Oh yeah,
(06:06):
so have you checked your email recently? No, there's one
from Jenny. You might want to go ahead and maybe
not read it out loud. Okay, Hey, we using me
an invoice memobile so I can submit payment release. Also,
we have blank from blank and blank from blank both
want to do a phoner interviews this week. Do you
(06:26):
have availability? Okay? Sure? Yeah, so okay, one of us
might have been right.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Yeah, we won't tell you who though.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Did one of us say what I did? I did?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
I did I did the first blank as a matter
of fact, Yeah, I don't hate that. I don't hate
it either. Both of those are really good UH performers,
the UH headliners both, Yes, Yeah, as much as the
second one, I don't think so much, which is a
headliner but has played before the first one was definitely
(07:05):
a headliner.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Yeah, now we'll doings go. But nonetheless, I'm like, that's
that sounds pretty solid if that's if that's what they have,
If that's and they I thought they were taking time off.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
They did, but you know how that goes with anybody
that takes time off. You know, they're like, I gotta
get back on it, gotta make some money, or this
is just all that I know. It's one of those
like when the band retires. I never fully believe when
a band retires and they said, no, this is our
fair farewell tour. You can think kiss for that. You
can think guns and Roses as well, because they just
(07:41):
don't know any better, They don't know anybody, they don't
know what else to fucking do, so they're just like,
you know what, fuck it, let's go back on the road,
let's go, let's suck a tour, make some money, and
then because we love playing, we may not like each
other at the end of the tour, but whatever.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Yeah. To me, there is always a chance that a
band's going to play again. By the way, one of
these bands we've had a great relationship with in the
first show, faux Show for multitudes of reasons, faux Show
one of them, no, but the other. Yeah, okay, well
that's pretty cool. Yeah, yeah, that's fun. How ironic is that? Yeah? Right,
(08:17):
that is synchronicity of your universe right there. Yeah. So
it sounds like we may have something to say here
about Rockahoma. I hope.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
So within the next coming couple of days at least
a week. Yeah, but you never know. I mean it's
been pushed back before the announcement has we thought we
would be getting it on one week is like, hey,
we got it.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
We're just tightening up some things. You know, we'll get
that announcement to you next week or whatever. Yeah. Well,
and I've said this before, Rockaholma is so much about
the culture of the event, and the bands are kind
of secondary. Yeah. I don't mean that in a negative way.
But you go to hang out, go to your like party,
go to your camp place, go with your friends, maybe
just do a one day thing. Yeah, there's so it's
(08:59):
like this little cultural event more than it is the bands.
The bands are also there. It's also a reason to
hang out. Yeah, but it's really just the experience of
being there all day, getting sun burned, right, drinking.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Until you know, from this time the sun comes up
till the sime sun goes down. I tell you, I
used to just be that guy that you know, would
just drive back and forth, just drive back and forth.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
It was the.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Bands for me, and then I got invited along to
stay with some friends and camp out the weekend, and
that's really the only way to do it now at least,
because you're getting the full god dang experience. You're getting
the music, you're getting the camping, you're getting the after parties.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
You know, you're.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Getting torrential downpours and you're just sitting there underneath the
canopy waiting for the rain to come up. Yeah, so
you can go trump around in the mud and see boobs.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Do you see a lot of boobs? I've seen a
lot of boobs? Like just in the wild? Are there
people flashing? There's people flashing. It's in the wild.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
You know, they Rocklaholma is a time to let all
inhibitions go well for some, yes, for some, and they
do they do. You won't ever see Becky Jean and
a pair of fucking fishing nets with a thong on
and fucking electrical tape over her nipples throughout the days, weeks, whatever,
(10:18):
But fucking Rockaholm a weekend, that's what you're getting. You're
getting Becky Gene from Accounting with tape on her nipples.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Right, Becky Jean, All right, yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, I'm It's just I've I've done the festival world
and uh I'm I think I'm done with it all. Right,
I feel I've done a couple of festivals in Europe.
I've done one here in the States and stayed in
the tent and it was fun. Right. Yeah, tent life
not for me. That's just in general as it is. Yeah. Yeah,
(10:50):
even if.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
I'm just regular camping, there's no tent yeah whatsoever. I'm
just too old for that shit. But it's it's fun.
It's fun for one one weekend out of the entire
year to just go ape shit crazy like that.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
I think it's worth it, just one Huh.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
You have one weekend you go ape shit. Yeah. You
don't go multiple weekends throughout the year.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Not really, No, maybe my birthday maybe, you know, depends
on what's going.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
On when you go on vacation. Uh they Even then,
that's still kind of you know, conservative. You know.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I have fun, don't get me wrong, but I don't
go You don't see me walking around the streets of
Florida with tape on my nipples.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
You don't do that at Rocklahoma.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
No, but I do dress up. I have in different
outfits and attire. You know, are you gonna do that
this year? I'm thinking about it. I think I will
get some different ones. You know, I think you should
have vote, Like do a vote?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
What do you mean, well, like, pick a couple different ones,
put them online.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Oh, I go through my Amazon box and be like, yeah,
I'm thinking this one or this yeah, this one or
this one.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yeah okay, and let people cast their votes. Yeah yeah, yeah,
and see what they they pick. The fun thing about
I'll give you some insight on that. And I know
what you're gonna say, but I'll give you some insight
on that. But letting them vote makes it feel included. Yeah,
for sure, that's something I might do as we get
closer to b Ockklahoma. It's not like you're gonna have
one spot where people can recommend body mcboat face right right,
(12:20):
put the wool with the dicks on it, he right right.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
There were a few outfits that I didn't get last
year that I wanted to, so I might pick those
up this year. I just don't know fucking wearing crushed
velvet in a hundred degree weather how that's gonna work out.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
I use your one year hey, part of the adventure. Man, Absolutely,
that's what you say, And it doesn't have to be
buttoned up all the time. Just let my man titties fly.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Just pick the outfits with the built in fans.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
They have those, like fucking inflatable costs. Yeah, go that route.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I don't hate it, Yes you do. I don't hate it.
Here's the problem, the built in fan. Yeah, but here's
the problem. You gotta take it off to get the beer.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
In your hand, Oh, says you do you think it? Yes,
Now you gotta somehow get your hand out, uh huh,
because there's no place for your face. Eh.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
You can only see you can modify that ship man,
But then the eric escapes and it's not inflatable duct tape,
little duct tape flap.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Yeah, there's a zipper, goddamn man. Just get yourself a bruski. Yeah.
I guess you have a very good point there. Do
you beer there or do you cocktail? Yes? All of
the above.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yes, it depends on how I'm feeling, and it really
goes for any other times, you.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Know, But that's my point. You said, no, no, no, no,
Like I can see you going to Rockaholma and being like,
whatever's on the agenda I'm here for and they're ahead.
I feel like you have. That's your same attitude to life. Yeah, yeah,
you're not entirely wrong, but I don't go. I don't know.
Maybe it's just my perception about it. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
But there's times that I drink liquor and I'm like,
all right, I'm I'm starting to get a little too far.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Less dial it back and just drink beer, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Or I've drink beer all day and this fucking now
I'm all fat and bloated.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
So just fucking pore me a glass. Yeah. I switched
to bourbon. And you will do that at Rockklahoma. Yeah.
And you'll do that on vacation. Yeah. And I'll do
that on a Saturday. Uh yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
But here's the difference is is that I'm not getting
fucking blasted.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
All right.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
That's on the weekends and on vacation, I'm not getting
fucking blasted. I can't tell you last time I got
blackout fucking drunk where I woke up the next day,
I was like, I don't remember how I got home.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
No, that's true. You haven't told a story in a while,
or you didn't know how you got on the back patio. Yeah,
I fucking I have dialed things back quite a bit.
You eliminated money comes along you eliminated, somebody helped alive, right.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
True, that is true, or you just realize that, Hey,
that's not the life to live anymore.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
I'm I'm with you.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
The man eats a lemons now by choice.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Not anymore. Oh that chip is sailed. Okay, Yeah, we
talked about that last week. Get the whole clear. Yeah,
he's not dying. Yeah we're good. Yeah that was. He
will do what is necessary. There's never been a doubt
in my relationship with him that he'll do whatever it
takes if it's necessary or if he's been sold it's necessary. Right.
(15:35):
Once you find out it's not necessary, well you can
get fucking bent man like, yeah, yeah it doesn't it
doesn't matter. But going to Rockahoma is always a good time.
We have pictures of like taking my daughter, I remember
that to Oklahoma, the big ass of your muffs on her. Yes,
a fucking big daddy Rich yep, holding that little baby. Yeah,
(15:56):
it's an awesome photo. Every time she sees it and
she's like, who's that. I'm like, that's big Daddy Rich.
He's like daddy, he's in a band. Huh. You went
to a music festival? What someday you'll think that's cool
or not or not yeah or not. My dad when
(16:16):
he would take me to like his work stuff, it
was selling Hallmark cards.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Yeah, So maybe that's what it'll be like for my daughter,
like selling a Hallmark cards. Like it's just like, eh,
it is what it is. Did your dad ever take
you to work? Do you remember going? Hold on? Do
you know what her dad did for work? Uh? No,
I don't think we've ever heard her talk about what
her dad did for work field. There's going to be
(16:45):
construction involved in there somewhere. I don't know, maybe, And
I don't I know what your dad did for work
in the end, like his last year or so, But
I don't know what he did before, like his rag,
Like what was his if you were his dad, your dad,
oh my dad?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
One?
Speaker 2 (17:02):
You got to know who the motherfucker is your dad?
You were acting dad? My stepdad?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, which we kind of talked
about it before.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Yeah, he did security and yeah, in the end, he
did security. But I remember what he did. He was
the Air Force vet, right, he was.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
In the Air Force for twenty something years and then
when he got out of that, it just whatever could
pay the bills. He worked machine shops, and he worked
out at American Airlines for a little while, so.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
A little here and there. Yeah, just whatever whatever it
could do to make some money. Yeah, my dad worked
Hallmark pretty much is my whole growing up. And then
when I left for college, he started building homes and
things like that. And I would come home the summer
and build homes with him swinging a hammer and yeah.
And then in the end he was I mean, he'd
(17:54):
been retired for a while, doing contract work occasionally. But
I don't think we know what Lindsay's dad, and I'm
trying to remember what have you talked about what your
dad did on the air?
Speaker 3 (18:06):
I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
I don't know you used to ride a motorcycle. Yeah,
but that's true.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Well, when I was really young, he for a while
he was an EMT and yeah, and he worked he
was a beard distributor for a little.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
While beer yeah, not beard, Yep, I heard it. And then.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
When I was uh, I think in middle school.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Pause, your dad how old were you when you remember
him being an EMT?
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Elementary school?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Okay, so I think up until I was.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Probably eight or nine years old, maybe ten at the
the latest.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
And when you say beer distributor, what does that mean
delivered beer? He was a beer delivered guy. Okay, those
are two completely different jobs. Yeah. A beer distributor is
someone brings beer in, works with whoever, and then distributes
it amongst sells it. And then the delivery guy just
pulls up with the truck and goes beer here. Yeah yeah,
sorrying here on you invoice? Yeah yeah. And what's how old?
(19:12):
How old was he when he died the beer thing?
I think I was a baby. Oh so that was
before the EMT Okay, so we got beard delivery guy
e MT.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
And then when I was up until he died, he
worked for Nipscoe, which is like working for PSO put
guess and Electric Underground.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Okay that falls under construction blue collar. Yeah, that was right,
and he did.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
That up until he died.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Really yeah, okay, so that for you, that's what you
remember him doing mostly. That was his career. Yeah yeah,
because when I was little, my dad was an engineer
for Homemark whatever that means. Ah, okay, and then he
just moved over to the sales side. Yes, okay, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
That's kind of like our engineer here used to be
on air. But then he moved over to me in
an engine.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Here, except it's different. My dad was more of an engine,
like a drawing.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Yeah yeah yeah, but still within the same company. I
want to stay here to do something different.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. Well I think it was more
lucrative to sales. Yeah yeah, there's a lot of money there.
Draw cards, right. I could be wrong, but I think
it'd be neat to be the guy that's drawing the cards. Yeah. No,
if you're drawing the cool card, right, But if you're
drawing the same you know, frog wishing you a happy birthday,
I don't or the same you know covered Bridge winter scene, right,
(20:34):
I don't know how great that is. I guess you're right. Yeah.
Did your dad ever take you to work for dig?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Just too dangerous. I bet there was never a take
your daughter to work day? No. I mean I can
hate those days. I do know.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
I'm his co workers because a lot of kids I
went to school with our parents all work together. So
I mean I did know a lot of his worker
that was about it.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
I mean, I love the idea of take your kid
to work day for you know, the bonding of the
parent and the child. For sure. Yeah, but ultimately it's
a fuck off day, like nobody's really working. Because my
kids are always like because my wife work has one
and they throw like it's all out. There's no working
that day. There's no you get to see meetings and
all that stuff. It is face painting and carnival rides and.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
To keep kids, yes, yeah, because kids don't do good
in conference meeting.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
No discussing million dollar oil wells. Yeah, And so my
kids are like, oh, what can we do that at
your work? And I'm like, no, there were a couple
of people here that used to work here. Anyway. Every
day was to bring your kid to work day for sure.
For sure, Plus like what am I gonna do? Like
I'm trying to talk on the air, I'm not gonna
have my kid like dad, Dad, I can't get this
(21:52):
game to work on my tablet.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Hold on, let me stop entertaining one hundred thousand people
batteries and talking to talking to I don't know entertaining
people are entertained in different ways.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Yeah, you did your dad ever, sorry, your stepdad ever
take you to work or your mom?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Yes, in a sense that yes, we were there, we
showed up.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
We've been there a couple of times, but not like
they never was that hole bring your kid to work day.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Hey, you guys are coming to work with me tomorrow
because we're here and bring your kid to work day,
all right.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
But when they were in the Air Force, which I
think was probably the coolest fucking part. I've climbed in
so many different planes and jets and shit, that was
really cool.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
So we did that a lot.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
If I needed some help with something, we go out
to my mom's shop when she was working at American.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I've got all the tools at work, Why don't you
just bring it out here and we'll work.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Stuff like that, but never really bring bring your kid
to work day.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Yeah. My dad would do these things at the end
of the day where the local card shop or whatever.
They would come in and he'd have all the Christmas
stuff in like July so they could order, and so
I would go with him and help. Like he'd do
some hotel, banquet room or whatever and set everything up
and then you know, the next five days people would
(23:15):
come from those shops and see what it was. So
I would help set up. That's cool. But my dad
officed in our house, so I would help him, like
sort invoices and things like free labor. Yeah, basically, essentially
it was free labor. But the idea of take your
kids to work to day is all about fucking off
pretty much. Bab Sure it's a free day to hang
(23:36):
out with your kids, because you don't want heart surgeons
doing that. No, right, you know when nurses doing that.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Kids off in the back play and throwing legos at
each other and next thing you know, you've got one
landing in you, right, and you're patient to whatever.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
You're like, I don't know why this heart isn't working,
but they're kids, like you're like, ah, damn right, it's
not appropriate. I didn't have to be a human like
a vet like I don't right around dogs and stuff
that aren't yours, and the kids like a pet, the
peppy no one on their tail. Yeah yeah, all right,
(24:10):
you guys have a great week. And it sounds like
we're going to find out about Rockaholma very soon and
whoever's going to be there. Apparently they're gonna try and
do an interview with us, so we'll share that as
soon as we know more. You guys, have a great week.
See you, Bye bye.
