Speaker 1 (00:00):
Oh, it's that time the South Carolina Poultry Festival in
Basburg Leesville. I can tell it's that time of the
year because I can smell it cooking. Heigina.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Hey, Jonathan, I'm glad you brought.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
One of my newest friends on the music stage, rut Spence.
Good to see you again, buddy.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Great to see you again, Jonathan. Thanks for having us.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Oh Ma, it's great to be I'm glad you're a
part of the celebration. Let's start talking about.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
What we're so excited to have them.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Wednesday is the beginning, and this time we're bringing barking
sea lions to the Clucking Chicken Festival.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Absolutely, I want to confuse everybody.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
There's something you've never done before. So I understand that
this is obviously a traveling sea lion show and everybody
loves it, and you're going to demonstrate that beginning Wednesday night,
and then it runs all the way.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Through Saturday, all the way through Saturday.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yes, Wednesday's kind of like a sneak preview. It is.
I one off, sea lions are afraid of chickens. Is
there a pecking order in the sea lion crowd?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
We have two different species we've got California Sea Lions
and we have South American Sea Lions. We can put
you in the act.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Oh my god. No, let's talk about the fact that
Thursday is when all the kids love it, because that's
the beginning of the carnival night. And you've got two
pay one price ride.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
We do Thursday and Fridays.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Pay one price thing because the kids can wear them.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Out they will. And the great thing don't leave your
children at the carnival.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Oh I'm sure that the Basburg Leesville Police Department appreciates
you not just dropping your kid off to sit in
the mall. Now, let's talk about the fact that Friday
night is when we have an opportunity for three hometown
favorites to be on the show.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Absolutely within all within eleven miles of Bitsburg Leesville. You've
got Rut Spence and his band of brothers, Carl Reicherd,
Carly is Well, she's in Nashville now, but hometown's Gilbert
and got Coddy Webb.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Three of South Carolina's favorite country.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Music artists up in coming.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
And if you haven't had an opportunity to hear Carly Reiker,
this is something you don't want to miss. You may
have seen show, and it's well worth it. I love
that medley when you go from the Beatles to Zezi Top,
to the Alman Brothers to one of your originals, and
then you wrap it up with Jason Alden. I think,
thank you. Everybody loves Cody well, but they may not
have had an opportunity to hear Carly Reiker.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Carly is a very unique performer. As her dad would
say that she's a combination between bluegrass and country pop.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Look, that's a hot comedy.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Is that is a good combo.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
It's a female billy strings, but she is. But she
can sing love some billy spring. That's all Friday night,
beginning at five point thirty on the main stage. That's
right in front of the fire department. Look, if you
can't find it, just listen. When you hear rutnel stage,
you'll know just to follow the sound of that man's voice.
How are the band of Brothers doing great?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
We're doing great booking shows, traveling. We just got back
from Jacksonville Beach, Florida. Playing down there at Kickers at
Susan Todays She's bar and Derek Trucks got to hang
out with him a little bit down there and great experiences.
We are just trying to keep ourselves out in front
of the public, GUYE as much as possible and keep
ourselves available for audiences to come and see a show.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
And at Jacksonville, Florida, it's a good thing to keep
your butt out of jail. Gets a little crazy down.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
There, yeah, it gets a little while a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Break time in Florida gets nuts.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Yeah, a little crazier than what I'm used to here
in Lexington and Bates area.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
The South Carolina show. You're opening for somebody pretty large too.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yes, I'll be opening at CCMF this year for a
post Malone and Tucker wet More and Tracy Lawrence and
a couple other guys. So very excited about that. That'll
be on June seventh.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
You may not know this, but I think you got
on that trail because you won the local battle of
the Bands to get into what was then going to
be the Field Extreme Music Festival, which didn't pan out
because mother Nature almost wiped it off the face of
the earth. Very true, but I'm glad that you're going
to be at Myrtle Beach for that one. That's huge.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Yeah, that's very excited. They had us last year play
at the Corps Banquet tent and that's one of the smaller,
you know, tent stages, and this year they've bumped us
up to the number two stage. So we're very excited
to be playing playing out there at the Tito's Handmade
Vodkas stage this year.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
So that'll be cool. Now. And you're accepting road sponsors,
are you not?
Speaker 3 (04:02):
We are looking for all kinds of sponsors actually, so
we get enough of them all together, maybe they all
can become road sponsors.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Who mentioned that right here, because we've got so many
corporations moving to South Carolina who want to make sure
they understand that now they're part of Southern heritage exactly. Well,
you can't be unless you're sponsoring a band.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
You're not officially Southern to your logo is on the
drum kit behind rut Spence.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That's right, that's right, go for it.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
And then Saturday morning it is all daggum day because
we're up with the chickens literally for the five K.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Start seven point thirty. I think it's seven o'clock radio charge.
Well no, no, that's way too early for me. That
Chicken got up before I did. But we start off.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
With that, and now we got a lot of things
that you can be part. You have to sign up,
like the five K. Talk about that.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
The five K you can sign up that morning, actually okay,
But there are online forms that you can sign up
for any thing right now.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
It always helps the organizers when you sign up early.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
If you don't sign up early for the five K,
you will not get your Racers T shirt.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
You gotta have that. That's why we run.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I know everybody wants the T shirts.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Now. The chicken cooking competition, is that a sign up online?
Or is that already?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Chicken Cooking is sign up online? Okay, and we have
a finite number of Yes, space is available for that,
just to help the judges if nothing else, right because
somebody trying to eat twenty different types of chicken is
a little difficult.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Exactly. Things that you may not have to sign up for.
I asked this out of pure ignorance.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
So you know, can call in contest is yours?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
You can walk up, You can walk.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Up and you can sign up. You can win money.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Can I also win money for the cornhole tournament? Yes? Okay?
Do I have to sign up prior to the cornhole tournament.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Only thirty minutes.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh good, come walk up and sign up.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Sign up now the volleyball tournament you do have to
sign up for early as well.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Got you do. I have to wear my skippy little
bikini outfit if I'm going to be in the volleyball tournament.
You don't. Okay? Saturday night obviously with the huge fireworks display,
there's a big build up to that. Talk about some
of the things that will be going on on the stage.
Cake auction, Uh huh, I know you want to talk
about that.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's one of my favorite cake auction is absolutely wonderful.
We've had cakes go for five hundred dollars. We've had
cakes go for thirty five hundred dollars. So bring your
pocket book when you come to the festival.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Now, when I spend five grand on a cake, where
does that money go?
Speaker 2 (06:33):
It is our seed money for the next year's festival.
And we are nonprofit. Everything we have is donated back
into the community in some way, shape or form, whether
it's scholarships for students, whether it's to help the bands,
or to help field trips or something like that. We
help nonprofits and the commercials.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
You hear me talk about rut Spence and Cody Webb,
Carlie Reicher, Tokyo Joe, because people need to know who
the main it's going to be. But there's a lot
of stage time dedicated to the community that you need
to talk about. Because there's several different stages at the
Poultry Festival.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
We have one that's dedicated to the schools Pittsburg Leiswell primary, elementary,
middle and high school courses bands on the same stages
tap and those children deserve recognition as well gospel stages.
And you know that's one thing that not a lot
of festivals do anymore.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
And the Thursday night is going to be the Contemporary Christian.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Contemporary Christian Night. Yeah, it's with East Wind and Lorie Debo's.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
I want to ask you about the car show because
every guy loves cars.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Buddy Rigels got one going in there this year. It
is nice, nice, nice. It's a sixty five Corvette looks Christine,
absolutely Christine. And there's a couple of SS's in there.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
You got to have a couple of antique trucks in there.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Oh yeah, antique tractors too.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
It is the sixth through the night. I guess that
is Wednesday through Saturday.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Do you realize in the Little Ridge section which includes Newberry, Saluta, Batesburg, Lesel,
it's a one point five billion dollar industry. The poultry
industry is zero point five bill gi.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
It is in agriculture. I believe it's second only its timber.
So you think about the impact of the poultry industry
from the processors to the growers, right, yeah, from everybody involved.
It is a mainstay of our community agriculturally. So it's
an opportunity to celebrate all of them.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
It's wonderful. And Sarah Sheeley was the brainchild of this,
and we know we love some Sarah Sheey. Thank you,
Mama love Sheey's barbecue.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yes, I smell it.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
I know you too.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
So we covered a lot of ground. But the great
thing is you can get the entire schedule and you
can click on it the register and all kinds of
things when you get to sc Poultry Festival dot com. Right,
it's so good to see again. I can't wait to
hear you on stage. Brother.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Great to see you again as always, Jonathan. Look forward
to seeing you against
