My name is Sandy. This is my buddy JB. Hello,
and Tricia is here too.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hi.
Speaker 1 (00:04):
Everybody find us on Instagram at JB Sandy atx same
thing on TikTok.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Grab the podcast version of the show.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
You guys know how to do all that stuff, and
you can text us anytime at seven three seven three
zero one ninety six hundred. Again, that's seven three seven
three zero one ninety six hundred. I want to play
a little game. There is an eighties band and it's
one of those bands that in my mind, when you
hear them, you know who they are.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
There's certain bands that have a certain sound and you
hear it you're like, oh, yeah, I know who that is.
And this band, in my opinion, was one of those bands.
They were huge in the eighties and they've put out
a new record. So what I want to do is
play a little bit of the song. And I really
think Tricia no offense. But I think JB will know this.
I do not think you will, okay, because it's not
(00:52):
like Diamond Rio or our Kentucky head our Kentucky Headhunters
or yeah, it's none of those, So I don't think
you're gonna know this, man, but I think JP. Well no, okay,
so listen carefully. Very unique sound huge in the eighties. Hey, sorry, friends,
(01:12):
but we cannot play the song on the podcast.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Maybe you know it yet, I do, Yeah, you do.
Very distinct sound. You're right, that is none other than Alabama.
That's not right, No, I'm kidding. No, that sounds like
Brian Setzer or stray Cats.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Yes, that's exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yeah, that's that. That distinct rockabilly sound. Yep, like huge
amongst Hot Rotterers and Harley Riders.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
And were you into that back in the day. I
was never a stray Cats fan. Nah, it wasn't. It
wasn't totally my thing. I was more into new wave
and post punk. But I think I appreciated more now
than I did that.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
That sound.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
That sounds like if they if they were playing Popped
into the Continental Club, I'd be like, that's about the
coolest thing ever. Yeah, they don't play places that small,
but that's the vibe. They're Continental club vibe kind of bang.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Right, it'd be perfect for him at the stray Cats
played the me Night Cat, right, I'd be the.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Perfect They did this song that video Stray cat strut.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Yes, And here's what I will tell you that I'm
One of the moments that I knew I was super
cool was when I was in seventh grade and we
played stray cat Strut in my middle school band.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Oh that and Africa by Toto. I was like, nobody
can tap me right now.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
These are songs on the radio and I am playing
them on my trumpet.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I mean, I always thought it was amazing that Brian
Setzer banked his whole career on being a cat.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
His whole theme was cats. Everything cats.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
It's funny, how like that that rockabilly culture. It's very
slick back, pompadour hair, It's it's cuffed jeans and a
white T shirt. It's like I said, it's really big
and hot rod rat rod, all that cultural stuff.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
It just that just wasn't my scene.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
But you know, I didn't know the whole culture that
goes with it in high school. You know, I didn't
know all of that, and that that's there's a reason
there have the longevity in such a you know, an
established band.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
But that whole that whole scene is just too much
effort with a lot of pre show style.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
It's funny. I'll tell you a couple of funny things
like that is google it Google like Japanese rockabilly fans.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
It's a fit.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Really, the Japanese love this scene and they'll dress up
like it and they'll it's almost like they're doing a
twist dance.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
They get together and dance. It's so random. You're right,
it's a total subculture. Yep.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
And then I'll tell you another funny story. You remember
I used to have that fifty eight Pontiac. Yes, big
car looks like a bel air if you if you
don't know, and I and I sold it to a
guy in Germany.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
And he was it was so funny.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
We were going back and forth like that was scary
selling something overseas because I don't want to I need
to get paid in the check clear and he wants
to make sure that the car's on a boat with
the title, and so there's a trust issue. We finally
ended up getting on the phone and I could speak
just enough German to build his trust, and his English
was just good enough that we could talk. I ended
(04:38):
up sending the car to him. It takes like two
months to get there, and he's like, hide, hide the
plates under the carpet because they'll confiscate the plates and
we want we want Texas plates.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh and I sent him.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
I sent him a set of California black plates as
a bonus too. If you're into cars, that's a thing.
And then I got the photos. He sent me photo.
First of all, he had bought another start Pontiac star
Chief and got burned. It showed up and it was
a piece of junk. And so he went through this,
he got the car, sends me a note, He's like,
(05:11):
this car is amazing. It's better than I could have
ever imagined. Can't thank you enough. And he and he
and his buddies dress up like rockabilly and go out cruising,
the whole thing, the slick back hair, of the cuff.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Jeans, the really.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, he sent me the yeah, and I like he
sent him. I I don't think I saved him anywhere,
and I was trying to find him, but that just
made my day, Like just that's so happy that, like
I'm weird about cars, that they go to a good home.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Yeah, that couldn't not have been better. So this guy
has a regular he's kind of like a cross dresser.
He but he dresses up in Rockabilly. Right, it's the
same mind costume. Yeah, yeah, the costume.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Speaking of that, Halloween coming up coming up, we have
Halloween on Friday.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Right, yeah, day after tomorrow. Yep.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Trick or treat? Are we all set with chili dogs?
That's our one. We don't have any traditions in this family,
but that's the one that we do have. Is who
I like that chili dogs on Halloween before trick or treating.
I got the chili dog head count. We're gonna have
a group of about five people here. Then they're going
to go trick or treating, and then I will steal
the candy that I want out of their bags when
they come back. Wait a minute, so some of Landry's
(06:27):
friends are coming here first. Yeah, okay, cool. I love that.
That's fun. Coming up next, Tricia has got the story
we love we have.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
All right, we're going to talk about who's headlining the
Longhorn City Limits on Saturday before the bandy game.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
All right, stay with us. Story we love is next.
Neat Extra Cash in your Life.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
The thousand dollars pay Day is back this morning at
nine one on three point one, Austin's eighties station. Very
very well known band playing Longhorn City Limits before the
game on Saturday. Tricia's got the infro fo you and
the story we love in just a moment. Yesterday was
one of those gross hot days that we always get
just before a cold front kind of comes in.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
It's always like hot and sticky and gross. And that
was yesterday.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
But today's high only going to be sixty six, which
is very welcomed, very very welcome.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Very welcome.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
JB sent us a text on Sunday when it was
still really hot and you're like, just FYI, it's ug season.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Yeah it was.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
It was cool in the morning, which was a nice reprieve.
But man, the women of Austin cannot wait to bust
out the ug boots. You're right, and flip their attire.
It's like, hold on, hold on, we're not We're not.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Quite there yet.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Hey, on the dude's side of that, I move all
my hoodie sweatshirts from the far right side of my
closet to the middle of the closet and I did
that a little bit early.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah, and you get and you put your hang your
straw hat for the winter.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yep, that's right, get your felt hat. Get your felt hat.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
If you're planning on going to the Longhorn game on Saturday,
that looks pretty good too. Hi on Saturday, I almost said, Burro,
I want seventy four degrees the stories we lo.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
How so, if you are going to go to the
game on Saturday ET versus Vanderbilt, it's an eleven o'clock kickoff.
The Longhorn City Limits is having their free concert before
the game at a thirty am. A local band called
the night Oles is going to kick off the concert,
and then after they're done, you can run over to
the game. But if you want to see the big headliners,
(08:30):
you need to run back over to the LBJ lin
as fast as you can, because fifteen minutes after the
game ends, the Beach Boys will be headlining. Whoa Longhorn
City Limits concert. That's kind of cool, pretty cool, right?
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Free?
Speaker 4 (08:44):
The concerts are free during the season, so yeah, a
free Beach Boys concert after a game on a beautiful
day in Austin, Texas. And get much better than that.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Yeah, and the Beach Boys have did it, you know.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Brian Wilson of course passed away, who was the face
of the Beach Boys. If you will but they did
a lot of tours without him when Ryan was having
his struggles, so they can.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Still go on way back, not just the struggles at
the end, way back when you had had mental health issues.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah, yeah, right, right, So the Beach Boys know how
to do it without Brian Wilson and they'll sound great.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
They'll sound great.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
And do you know that they still perform an average
of one hundred and fifty shows a year around the globe.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Oh, touring.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
I thought maybe they did like a residency somewhere or something.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Touring, I've seen them, have you ever? I've seen the
Beach Boys twice. Great. Wow.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
If you think about it, and I always it always
goes back to this one. The Beach Boys remind me
of my childhood because my dad was a had a
reel to reel of the Beach Boys and it played
on the weekends all the time. But I always looked
back at it and go, those guys invented a whole sound, right,
There was nothing like that before the Beach Boys.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And then that whole California coast beach sound was huge well,
and there was a lot of.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Back and fourth over who were the musical geniuses of
the time. The Beach Boys or the Beatles, and there's
a great argument for both.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
And McCartney always said that Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club
Band was their response to pet Sounds because they were like,
oh my god, this is so good.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
We've got to that's now the bar and it was,
it was.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
It was not necessarily about the songwriting. It was the
production techniques too. They were both like super innovative, yep.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
And then everybody fell in line after that with the
way things doing things in stereo, you know what I mean, which.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Is yeah, kind of cool. So that is after the
Longhorn game.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
They say, fifteen minutes after the game ends is when
the Beach Boys start.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
That's why I see you better run back over to
LBJ long Jabie. Are you're going to the game? Right?
I am.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I have not been to I've been to a tail game,
but I haven't been into the stadium for a Longhorn
game in fifteen years, obably. And some friends inviters and
I was shocked that my wife said yes, but she
likes the friends. She's you know what I mean, it's
about going with those friends because she's super social.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
I mean, maybe not so much so it's not going
to be so hot too.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, it's an early game, it's going to be it
should be decent out, it'd be fun and there's it
could be super exciting. It's there's so everything's on the
line with this game leading to the potential spot in
the playoffs. Like we've got a few of those to
get past. But it's an interesting sort of historic game,
(11:38):
you know, because what's Vanderbilt ranked now?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
They're in the top ten, they're up there.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
They have not been in the top ten. I looked
it up since like nineteen forty seven.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I was going to say, since like the Civil War,
they haven't. It's been a long time. It used to
be you just marked that one up as a win, right.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Not not anymore. They beat Alabama last year, you remember that.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Yeah, they drugged the goalpost down Broadway in Nashville and
chucked it in the river.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
What do you sign to me? You're sign number nine
in the eight.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Yeah, it's a big game, a big game. So eleven
o'clock kickoff? Will you go to this Beach Boys show? Afterwards?
You just go wherever your wife wants exactly. I'm I'm
on a leash. Yeah. Well, it's a different environment for
you now because now you can get your cold beer
at the stadium.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Yeah, that's going to be a mess.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
A terrible idea.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Well, at least it's an early game. I think those
get really messy. With the night games.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Yeah. Oh, people have been drinking all day and really.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yeah and with a with an eleven o'clock kickoff, people
and be starting really early, right yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
That local band kicks off at eight thirty a m.
To the Longhorn City, So yeah, everybody's starting very early.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
The end game experience has really changed since you've been there, JB.
Especially for night games because they have those really cool
led burnt orange in the shows, the drone shows.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
All that kind of So have fun.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Kickoff eleven o'clock Saturday morning at dk R one three

Maybe you know it yet, I do, Yeah, you do.
Very distinct sound. You're right, that is none other than Alabama.

Brian Setzer or stray Cats.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Yes, that's exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yeah, that's that. That distinct rockabilly sound. Yep, like huge
amongst Hot Rotterers and Harley Riders.

And were you into that back in the day. I
was never a stray Cats fan. Nah, it wasn't. It
wasn't totally my thing. I was more into new wave
and post punk. But I think I appreciated more now
than I did that.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
That sound.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
That sounds like if they if they were playing Popped
into the Continental Club, I'd be like, that's about the
coolest thing ever. Yeah, they don't play places that small,
but that's the vibe. They're Continental club vibe kind of bang.

The thousand dollars pay Day is back this morning at
nine one on three point one, Austin's eighties station. Very
very well known band playing Longhorn City Limits before the
game on Saturday. Tricia's got the infro fo you and
the story we love in just a moment. Yesterday was
one of those gross hot days that we always get
just before a cold front kind of comes in.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
It's always like hot and sticky and gross. And that
was yesterday.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
But today's high only going to be sixty six, which
is very welcomed, very very welcome.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Very welcome.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
JB sent us a text on Sunday when it was
still really hot and you're like, just FYI, it's ug season.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Yeah it was.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
It was cool in the morning, which was a nice reprieve.
But man, the women of Austin cannot wait to bust
out the ug boots. You're right, and flip their attire.
It's like, hold on, hold on, we're not We're not.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Quite there yet.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Hey, on the dude's side of that, I move all
my hoodie sweatshirts from the far right side of my
closet to the middle of the closet and I did
that a little bit early.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah, and you get and you put your hang your
straw hat for the winter.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yep, that's right, get your felt hat. Get your felt hat.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
If you're planning on going to the Longhorn game on Saturday,
that looks pretty good too. Hi on Saturday, I almost said, Burro,
I want seventy four degrees the stories we lo.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
How so, if you are going to go to the
game on Saturday ET versus Vanderbilt, it's an eleven o'clock kickoff.
The Longhorn City Limits is having their free concert before
the game at a thirty am. A local band called
the night Oles is going to kick off the concert,
and then after they're done, you can run over to
the game. But if you want to see the big headliners,
(08:30):
you need to run back over to the LBJ lin
as fast as you can, because fifteen minutes after the
game ends, the Beach Boys will be headlining. Whoa Longhorn
City Limits concert. That's kind of cool, pretty cool, right?
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Free?
Speaker 4 (08:44):
The concerts are free during the season, so yeah, a
free Beach Boys concert after a game on a beautiful
day in Austin, Texas. And get much better than that.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Yeah, and the Beach Boys have did it, you know.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Brian Wilson of course passed away, who was the face
of the Beach Boys. If you will but they did
a lot of tours without him when Ryan was having
his struggles, so they can.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Still go on way back, not just the struggles at
the end, way back when you had had mental health issues.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah, yeah, right, right, So the Beach Boys know how
to do it without Brian Wilson and they'll sound great.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
They'll sound great.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
And do you know that they still perform an average
of one hundred and fifty shows a year around the globe.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Oh, touring.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
I thought maybe they did like a residency somewhere or something.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Touring, I've seen them, have you ever? I've seen the
Beach Boys twice. Great. Wow.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
If you think about it, and I always it always
goes back to this one. The Beach Boys remind me
of my childhood because my dad was a had a
reel to reel of the Beach Boys and it played
on the weekends all the time. But I always looked
back at it and go, those guys invented a whole sound, right,
There was nothing like that before the Beach Boys.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And then that whole California coast beach sound was huge well,
and there was a lot of.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Back and fourth over who were the musical geniuses of
the time. The Beach Boys or the Beatles, and there's
a great argument for both.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
And McCartney always said that Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club
Band was their response to pet Sounds because they were like,
oh my god, this is so good.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
We've got to that's now the bar and it was,
it was.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
It was not necessarily about the songwriting. It was the
production techniques too. They were both like super innovative, yep.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
And then everybody fell in line after that with the
way things doing things in stereo, you know what I mean, which.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Is yeah, kind of cool. So that is after the
Longhorn game.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
They say, fifteen minutes after the game ends is when
the Beach Boys start.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
That's why I see you better run back over to
LBJ long Jabie. Are you're going to the game? Right?
I am.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I have not been to I've been to a tail game,
but I haven't been into the stadium for a Longhorn
game in fifteen years, obably. And some friends inviters and
I was shocked that my wife said yes, but she
likes the friends. She's you know what I mean, it's
about going with those friends because she's super social.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
I mean, maybe not so much so it's not going
to be so hot too.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, it's an early game, it's going to be it
should be decent out, it'd be fun and there's it
could be super exciting. It's there's so everything's on the
line with this game leading to the potential spot in
the playoffs. Like we've got a few of those to
get past. But it's an interesting sort of historic game,
(11:38):
you know, because what's Vanderbilt ranked now?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
They're in the top ten, they're up there.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
They have not been in the top ten. I looked
it up since like nineteen forty seven.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I was going to say, since like the Civil War,
they haven't. It's been a long time. It used to
be you just marked that one up as a win, right.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Not not anymore. They beat Alabama last year, you remember that.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Yeah, they drugged the goalpost down Broadway in Nashville and
chucked it in the river.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
What do you sign to me? You're sign number nine
in the eight.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Yeah, it's a big game, a big game. So eleven
o'clock kickoff? Will you go to this Beach Boys show? Afterwards?
You just go wherever your wife wants exactly. I'm I'm
on a leash. Yeah. Well, it's a different environment for
you now because now you can get your cold beer
at the stadium.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Yeah, that's going to be a mess.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
A terrible idea.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Well, at least it's an early game. I think those
get really messy. With the night games.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Yeah. Oh, people have been drinking all day and really.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yeah and with a with an eleven o'clock kickoff, people
and be starting really early, right yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
That local band kicks off at eight thirty a m.
To the Longhorn City, So yeah, everybody's starting very early.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
The end game experience has really changed since you've been there, JB.
Especially for night games because they have those really cool
led burnt orange in the shows, the drone shows.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
All that kind of So have fun.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
