Forever heavy on, no, no big deal
Where are you from, but now no, your won't be hurting me
I will not go
The cold ride on a weary long way home

(14:34):
We're so far from home
I'm under the sun's key hueset
I know that's not your though
She wants it all, take it all

(15:15):
I know that's not your though
I know that's not your though
I've been crazy for a long time
And I'm under the sun's key hueset

And you're so close
I'm running behind in the shadow
You're a full-way cursed by sky you follow

(17:41):
As long as we'll wander creatures that lead you alone
A lonely shining light in the blue
And now you're a little bit of watchin' all the way
You're a little bit of a fooling old
But you're made of a war and a marchy

Hey kids, how you guys doing?
Welcome back for another dish in a metal shop 101.

(19:38):
Got a camp-back show for you guys today.
So we are going to get into it.
We heard some King's County in there, so cold hollow pledge with house lights.
While man Carlos, who's been stone-breed with break and Paul Austin,
Land of Pony, kicking the show off.

(19:59):
Speaking of Paul Austin, we have exclusive interview for you guys.
Also, a little exclusive surprise that you can all hear on the metal shop 101.
And for you guys, for you people who are going to know, Paul Austin was with a band back in the 80s called Firecline,

(20:20):
which was part of the new wave of British heavy metal invasion.
So to speak.
He was at the forefront of it, and he went on to do the IP suite.
And now he has the zone thing going on.
We'll call Austin Band.
And pretty amazing stuff.

(20:41):
But we'll get into that interview a little bit later on in the show.
We are going to keep back into it.
This next rock box from my friends over a curtain call record.
It's Curtin Call Record.com.
I got some Paul Tyre's ghost coming up.
It just becomes you for six with unstoppable silver wick with trickster and the crown.

(21:03):
Set you free.
I'll courtesy my friends over curtain call records.com.
Check them out.
We're going to die, but you went down to the mountain.
Metal head tested and had better proved metal shop 101.

(22:47):
Close your eyes to see my eyes.
You need to lie down to signs.
You need to explain slightly.
Tell me now, why first the idea for the stars.
If you dare join me in this awkward prayer.
Oh, oh.

(23:09):
Oh, dad.
Big bones.
Oh.
Look good for me.

(23:30):

(37:11):

(38:41):
and the show for you people don't know fire clown was at the forefront of the new wave of British heavy metal back 80s and Paul was a lead singer of it.
So I broke this interview down into three parts.
So I played the first part, then I'll play some fire clowns,

(39:04):
and then we'll get into that second part, and we'll do some VIP suite.
And then we have a brand new exclusive that you can only hear here on metal shop 101.
And I would all tell you, so I'll for the talking, here's Paul Austin right here on the metal shop 101.

(39:33):
I'm here for you to fire.
Turn the dial up to 11, we like to play it loud, metal shop 101.
Hi, this is Paul Austin from the Paul Austin Band UK, you're listening to Dut Rock's 101 Metal Shop.

(40:02):
I wrote a hint of six, and he winks his number on fellow partners after this.

(40:26):
Now my music goes, but I remember the feeling I'm million open horse, a thousand voice and singing,
which was so good to show, now he's starting to cowling, then,

(40:47):
you see the laughing on the beat, from my boots got my ginseng, I'm a original, yeah, original,
rock and roll star, now the company dropped me, said I wasn't the same, your music ain't by the kids' wall,

(41:19):
you're no longer the same, but I tried to act and dread it, and the right line of weight as you did and tried to be a failure,
now he's starting to have a lot of fun, and he's starting to have a lot of fun, and he's starting to have a lot of fun,

(41:50):
yeah, I'm original, I'm original, rock and roll star, now the company dropped me,
and he's starting to have a lot of fun, and he's starting to have a lot of fun,

(42:21):
yeah, I'm original, rock and roll star, now the company dropped me,

(42:49):
said I wasn't the same, but I tried to act and they're going to win,
I can drive like a dream
Unpack and record weight

(43:12):
I can get a picture of me baby
See me probably the obvious
So go this bad to call me next
And stay my life in all of the pain
I'll grab my boot grab my boot so
I'm a little bit too low

(43:34):
I'm a little bit too low
I'm a little bit too low
I'm watching my story
I'm a little bit
Hey
Hey
Ah

(43:55):
La la la
La la la la
My
Na na na na na
I'm a little bit too high
I can record weight

(44:45):
I don't like to welcome the show.

(45:12):
I've made it really needs no introduction.
Mr. Paul Austin of the Paul Austin band and also of Firecline in VIP suite.
What's going on Paul?
Mike's actually putting us on the show.
Things are really happening for us as you know.
If you've been looking at things that are blowing up now since we managed to get a track on to the LA for aid album.

(45:35):
That's all.
I'm getting some real traction.
It's called Austin Tachis.
We're just about to set off for debut shows over in Slovakia.
We're going to cut the shows later in two of the towns down there.
So we land in Bratislava on Thursday and we hit the road for an opening show for what is going to be our Austin Tachis tour.

(46:02):
We take this back in 4th in Europe back into the UK.
We're going to a few shows in the UK before chatting up the app ready for our debut in the US later in the year.
So yeah.
We're going to welcome along with that.
Love to happen and you know, you're going to be talking about what we're doing with some of the new music.
All right.
Well, let's go back a little bit.
Wait, let's go back to Firecline.

(46:25):
Okay.
Because that was back in the 80s.
So it was part of the new way of British heavy metal scene.
Absolutely.
I mean, yeah.
Let's talk about Firecline for the people who don't know.
No, they may be a few listeners in the US that could what I would call the connoisseurs.
Yeah.

(46:46):
They did dip into their own catalogs and see what got there.
But basically the guitarist Tony D'Ala was a school body of mine that we went to school until high school.
And he was at geeky kid that played in the orchestra on the acoustic guitar.
Everybody kind of ignored.
You know, the spotty kid in the corner.

(47:07):
It was a pretty guitarist.
But nobody really knew what he was doing.
And after high school, he and I met up in a rock bar in Manchance called the Phoenix as part of the Manchance University campus.
And I was knocking around in the couple of bands.
I was kind of doing anything in here, doing anything in there with a few local bands in town.
One called Mr. Z. You know, the band called Shadowlight.

(47:30):
These really never laid anything down.
They were guys that made our own posters with a pen and ink and put it up on a university.
What else were you doing?
That was the way it was done.
This is when tickets in my town were less than a dollar to go and see this.
Well, I mean, so we were happening.
And I got asked to join Firecline in 1988, exactly.

(47:51):
And we were right in the beginning of the new wave of British heavy metal.
Right.
We were playing a gigs where Death Leather was still doing cover songs.
Right.
Well, Budge was in the scene where a diamond head was happening.
Bands like that.
And so I got a chance to write some songs with Tony.
And we launched the Firecline record company, and we launched our first EP.

(48:15):
It's funny if I've got the time.
And I hope my English accent doesn't get your listeners wondering how to do the same.
So I'll slow down.
But we actually came to the US at the beginning of 1980 on a, to basically launch Firecline in the US and find the right record company.
We, we walked the streets of New York City and bang on all the doors in NM days.

(48:38):
That's what you had to do.
Oh, yeah.
And then, couldn't get a break.
I mean, I see that the gig in, in, in, in, in, in California in a place called Newport Beach.
And I know.
Now, in 1980.
I'm familiar with that.
You know, it's so we had some great friends that looked after us down there.
Then we came back recorded the EP, which you've got a few sounds that have sent you there.

(49:02):
And this thing blew up on the right on the tips of New Wave of British Heavy Metal.
And we did pretty good.
We toured extensively in the UK.
I'm talking 200 shows plus a year.
Wow.
Yeah.
And then you came to the point.
We supported motorhead.
Right.
Many of the acts of that period.
Right.
Unfortunately, Mike, as all the things go with music, bands fall out and music genres change.

(49:28):
We got a self-stuck at the beginning of the punk movement.
And what became then the new new wave of music, which was the crazy bands like Spandell Baley and
J.
Yeah.
That scene and the boy was taking over.
Right.
So we fell apart the scenes from being asked.
Yeah.
That really was a back fork. I kind of went back to again being a journeyman musician.

(49:51):
Right.
And Tony went off to do a band called Tony Dollars Hellhounds.
And then the kind of reals and off for that over in Europe.
So as I said, speaking to you earlier, unfortunately, me lost Tony to cancer a couple
years ago.
And in my opinion, a lot of the best guitarists that put it around and should have been around a lot
longer to know.
Right.

(50:12):
So I think there was a lot of very special solo friends at Bounds like deep purple he was did a lot of
session with people like that.
Right.
Anyway, that's what's been happening with the fire clown.
And I really recorded one of the tracks that we did.
It was called pormount.
It was a big hit at the time.
It was big in grace of all places.
Athens has a massive heavy metal scene.

(50:36):
Oh yeah.
I get bands from gree salt at the time.
Grace was big for us and fully enough when I came back on the circuit through the VIP and now
what is the Paul Austin band? I got contacted by a Greek record company asking if I was willing to
re-release the whole thing out of five pounds of musicians of music and put it up to date with

(50:56):
the farm more sort of better production and that's the other thing. The kind of technology we have today.
Right. I mean I were talking about that but at the moment my project is the PAB band and I've got to
make that work. I'm going to say the last throw the Dutch mic. I'm all in on this form.
Well let me ask you this. Is the punk scene still as big over here London? Is it used to be?

(51:22):
No, it's dead. We've had a resurgence of 1980s bands like the damned
you know, New York Dolls people like that are actually doing little tours around the town.
Right. Here was a sort of a couple of boundaries. Even the sex pisses are going back and talk
without going on. Yeah, I just saw that. Yeah. So they do little student gigs here and there.

(51:46):
They do the fair world tours here and there. What was happening when what you know about as long
long gone? You know this with you. There is not a movement of music in the UK right now. There's no
movement. You have a mismatch of music which has heavy metal hard rock. Death metal. Death metal

(52:07):
has become a little bit of a thing. I'll let you in the club sit at the moment. But there's no real
movement in music. Right. Nothing I see that the kids want to go out and follow or addressing
what like you did in the punk days or dressing what I would did. You know wearing battle jackets
with all our names that's still funny. You know what I'm saying? Right. It's just their heart.

(52:27):
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny.

(53:57):
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny.
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny.
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny.

(54:29):
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny.
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny.

(55:01):
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny.
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny.

(55:33):
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny.
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny.

(56:07):
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny.
I can't find that genre in the UK. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny. That's why it's funny. Look at the world.

(56:49):
Everything up

(57:49):
and

(58:13):
wrong.
Right.
And then you went on to do VIP suite.
So I had a great time.
I met some guys in locally here.
I'm living in the steel town of Middlesbury in T-Side,
which is where all the steel and I and all was

(58:34):
mind over the many, many years.
In fact, the Golden Gate San Francisco Bridges
Mail from Steel from this region.
So I'm going to go to guys here who are young fellow on base
on the fringes of making themselves getting into the market,
a guitarist that was local and a good drummer that was trying
to make things happen.

(58:55):
But the VIP suite has a really interesting story.
And in Dolphi for a second, basically COVID was all over.
We were doing nothing.
Nobody was doing anything.
And then I reached out through the internet to see if there's
any musician wanted to collaborate just wanted to hang out
but what was going down.
And I got contacted from a lady from Slovakia.

(59:18):
This is why the Slovakia in story is important.
Okay.
And she really was not an international tennis player
on the women's circuit.
She was a very famous tennis player.
Yeah.
Very famous tennis player.
And she was number one in Slovakia.
I think number 10 in the world at one time.
Oh wow.
It only said that her boyfriend was a drummer.

(59:39):
And he was a really heavy rock drummer.
And was looking for it to meet guys, particularly at the UK operation.
Right.
Put along for a short mic.
We've not together a set of cover songs.
I wanted to original one being called Mark CARD.
I myself and the guitarists,
Flutes of Slovakia, never met this guy.

(01:00:01):
And got ourselves into studio there.
He hired a bass player.
He played the drums.
And we cobbled together a set of music for an hour.
And did four dates in Slovakia never met each other since just literally over the phone.
Wow.
And this guy couldn't speak English.
It was translated to his girlfriend.
But the power of music and the language of music, everybody knew those songs.

(01:00:26):
Right.
So we'd become a little bit of a forced to reckon within that region now.
So Vakia and the Czech Republic remain a Belarusic set.
We're covering that area heavily.
And since that, what was the drummer that time now is the permanent member.
It's named Mylon Simon, a nickname is Folva, we call him.

(01:00:47):
And he's the powerhouse behind the band now.
He's powerhouse is BAB.
He's joined the IP suite and we cut out a good almas.
We did a tracks with that.
It was a pretty good album before suddenly things fell apart for reasons.
I don't even know myself.
Right.
But in hindsight, it's less than the opportunity to grow from the IP suite.

(01:01:10):
Get my stage craft back up to speed.
Get my confidence back up to speed.
Not been on the circuit for a number of years.
Right.
And I have a great band around you now.
Check it out.
Let's go.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.

(01:01:31):
Come on.
Maybe not she'd have a jail watching a move.
Parallel and die never see the looms.
We were in a smile.
She'd cheat and take.
Stride Dr. Chad.
The moon's black and the blue.
My heart.
My heart.
My heart.
My heart.

(01:01:54):
My heart.
My heart.
My heart.
Aces high.
Double getting to know where to look in the right.
Never look the bust.
Made out of whip.
Still out of slow.
Who is setting in my heart.

(01:02:17):
A mine heart.
A mine heart.
My heart.

(01:02:55):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You're too late
You're too old, you're too old, you're too cheap
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(01:03:19):
I'm old to the night
But you tell me you've never seen those old writing
As a cosciature
For your more fresh and real
Who've ever actually had
You've better run
Now you're facing

(01:03:41):
At the end of the end of the gun now
It's just a part of
My heart
My heart never even will

(01:04:11):
Made of you
How the devil is
Oh
So that we just ended up all lost in Ben

(01:04:35):
You guys are from that person I heard from the 8th of LACD
I was like, hey, wait a minute, what's this going on here, you know?
But you guys have a very cool
Southern rock, little heavier than Southern rock sound
And I think it's very amazing

(01:04:56):
What you got going on
You're saying that Mike, we have this blend of cow pump heart land
That's what we're filling in this gap
And we feel we're filling in a gap in the music
I'm going to say it right now, you've got the H's bands that are still touring
Right
Well, the LACD is still banging them out, they're still touring

(01:05:17):
But they're kind of sounding a little bit tired, let's use those words
Right
And then you've got very heavy stuff, the LACD is a drumstein
And all those that has a particular type of genre
Right
Right in the middle of that is people are missing that
Put a diamond a dude box, dance and rock and roll music
Right
You know, you're not really capable that you can listen to in the car

(01:05:38):
That you can put on any time whether you're getting ready to go out for a night's
The club, which means you're putting sort of beer driving down a highway
That's missing
Right
And we figured that is what we sounded like
And we were just the songs were just pouring out of us
Right
All the words are sort of about contemporary in this issues
But I also about, you know, Honnese and drinking beer and chasing girls

(01:06:02):
So we're not afraid to say it
Honestly, we're not afraid to say it
We want people to believe that we have even fun
We want the music to come across as fun
And so I thought am I going to dial my own hair or put this band together
Right
And I run it really a release a song on my own on the just the name Paul Austin
Which is a rock ballad, you know, people could dig it out and stop the rain

(01:06:25):
And it's about suddenly it's about
Lows you relationships, how would you get out of those relationships
Right
The difficulties of people in relationships that are hurting
And the words will guide people
I really believe if you listen to the song, it'll guide you
But it turned out there's another guy of all places
The Philippines that exactly the same name as me
Oh wow

(01:06:46):
I added the letter to the band on the end of it
Now you've got the poor Austin band
So that's how that happened
And then I was looking off to find a great guitarist
Now join with his name Kenny Nicholson
And he's on the tour with us now
He was joining us in subacca in the UK
And obviously onto the US

(01:07:08):
And he's been around the new wave of British heavy metal market
The years with their band called Blatt Rose
And all the bands of that nature has played a few cover bands
And some tribute acts, but he's a very, very talented musician
Right
And I'm also looking off to have on the bass joining the rhythm section
A guy called Paul Simpson
Again, mature got 40 years under his belt playing it live

(01:07:31):
And Paul is joined us, you know he plays left-handed bass
He looks great, you've got a fantastic feel for the music
And together with the foe for the drums
The rhythm section is really driving the music
Right
And then we're just accenting over that with our wrists and our lead breaks
And so we honest Mike, it's about the melody in the music

(01:07:52):
You can sing along to our songs
You can't sing along to our songs
Right
Exactly
Like you were saying, you know, a part of that genre has been missing
And I notice doing what I do
I notice a lot of bands are going back to that old style rock

(01:08:13):
And roll whether it be Led Zeppelin or whatever
But it's common
And I think it's what the music scene needs
It's like a jumpstart to get to the back going again
So we've got to be at the forefront of that Mike
We've got to go up through all those bands that lead it
And it's guys like you with your shows
And I've been listening to a lot of your shows since we've got together and listened to it

(01:08:36):
And I can hear all this heavy metal heavy rockers
Really driving
And without what I call the independent radio stations
We can't get access to the audience for them to hear the music
Right
You've got out of Spotify or any of these platforms
They get 160,000 new records a day
Oh yeah

(01:08:57):
You've got to have a unique sound or a unique look
Both of them
And work together to do your show
And we'll say my arse is high energy
Get up, are you see tap your feet rock and roll
Oh yeah
I've got folks driving their cars like for held down the freeway
Oh my car doesn't do 55, you remember the same

(01:09:19):
Oh yeah
And get into that field
Go back to the drive and go back to hanging out with your girlfriend
Your buddies in the truck
And good times
And that's a great music
I think there's generation needs
Absolutely
They're too busy listening and on their phones
They're going to do

(01:09:41):
They've got a thousand records on their
What you call it phones or whatever
And they don't even listen to them
I'll have 25 songs I listen to every day
That is thousand songs
But just give me a thousand songs
And the thing is too is this generation
You know with all high tech and everything
This generation will never know

(01:10:03):
What it's like to go to a record store
And get that album
Or stand outside for tickets
You know they think it's all
Oh you did what?
Yeah man
Those were the days
I was hit some of them and nail that
I was talking with a drummer friend of mine last night
And he said
What's missing now is

(01:10:24):
People that used to be because we're bringing our record out as a proper album
It's what's missing now
Do you remember the days when you'd buy an album
That'd be the top 100 people that were involved in the album
The record producer
The engineer
Right
Even the guy that brought the coffee and tea and biscuits
Right name on the album
And if you put a ability
When you hang out with your buddies

(01:10:45):
You could name everybody that was involved in that album
Yeah
So when you got Led Zeppon too
You named everybody that was on that
Oh yeah
Artwork was beautiful
They did the fortune feel of the music
It was fantastic
And not only that
The camaraderie in the record store
When he's talking to a guy
And he says if you got this new album
Did you pick this one out
Have you seen his involved on this

(01:11:07):
You communicated with a guy
Or a woman in the store
Right
And you know I didn't have dates in them or you went for a drink with the guy
And talked about the records
Right
You're not having relationships being built anymore
Right
I know
It's
It's sad
To see what the music industry has evolved to

(01:11:28):
I mean
It's sad
In
With AI coming into play now
I'm scared
I have to really
You can now get a kid who's wedgin
Right a song using chat
Right
Using AI
Get the artwork done by I don't know where else
And he's never left his bedroom
I launch it as a single

(01:11:50):
Right
And it's number one on the build work
For less than a beer
Right
It's insane how bad it's changed
It's absolutely crazy
It is
I mean just to let you know
And I know you're going to play some of our music tonight
And you've enjoyed it
Can't see I'm happy I'm here
We're also recording old style as well
That's awesome

(01:12:11):
Yeah we're recording old style
It's in the studio in in Slovakia
It's called
Gingla recording studios
They're just outside of Brace Lava
And the engineer who runs that studio
Adam
He's a
It's a Hungarian origin
He's one of the best guitarist I've ever played with
And not only a great guitarist
It's a hell of an engineer

(01:12:32):
And
We are doing raw rock and roll
And literally if you can't sing the song
We can't deliver the music
There's no quiddling in the music
To find out if I'm in tune or I'll auto tune the voice
This everything you hear on our music
It's for real
One or two takes at the most
Right
Just edit with do it

(01:12:53):
And we're out
I don't sit there
Not by note trying to fiddle and twiddling
Mess around with the music
What you listen when you hear our songs
BAM straight out the studio
First of the second time hit
That's what a lot of these kids don't know
You know
With the exception of a handful
Yeah
But why these kids don't understand
They can go to a computer nowadays

(01:13:16):
And write a whole guitar solo
It's just
It's absolutely incredible
It won't write the solo like you heard on the invasion
Just me on that
Right
Yeah
That solo
There's a song guys
Called invasion and I'm going to play for you a little bit later on
But the solo is so close to any van hell and corruption

(01:13:40):
And it was written
Or any van hell
And it's absolutely crazy kind of
So it kind of makes you wonder
What you know
People thinking
Right
People
Well
I'd love to think that what you're thinking
But I don't know
But I can tell you that when Tony wrote that
He was only 18 years old

(01:14:01):
And that I wanted to
It's absolutely true
It's really true
When he coded that Jackson Studios
In Rittman's with
And that's studios where Mozart had
Recorted them of Spam's album
Yeah
Well, you guys were direct support for motherhead
How was that?

(01:14:22):
How was that doing?
Working with motherhead and let me know
Well, you know
The gay guy did on a particular show
When we opened up I was burned
Very badly by a paratectnik
Because in the days
It was phosphorus that was in cans
Right
It was not the do-can-trol
And I came running across the stage
Kick the can by accident

(01:14:43):
The thing blew up right on the knees
It almost set me on fire
Oh, wow
My jeans, my t-shirt, my hair
I had a very butt burned on my hands
And I sung my show
With my hand in a pint pot of beer
For sort of 45 minutes of a show
And then was taken to hospital
Straight after the marshal
To do a full on rock and roll

(01:15:05):
Look how that came down
And I got to see a lot of the band
But we played two times with them
And they were great company
And I mean great company
Yeah
I see people wearing that t-shirts
Today the young ones
They don't know what that kind of rock and roll was like
Oh, no
You know, it's funny you
You're speaking about young ones
You know, you see these young kids

(01:15:27):
And they're like, what's up with
What's up with t-shirts
Yeah
You know, butterhead jacket
It's like, man
Okay, you like the music
We get it, but you didn't live that time, you know
I don't understand
What the audience was like
I'll give you a little little anecdote
For the purposes of
Good radio listening
I'll call the months ago

(01:15:48):
I went to see a show
With the lady
The same name
It's John Ballem
And I thought I'm going to go see this band here
And I went there
And it only turned out to be John Ballem's sister
Oh, wow
Really?
It was her band
She was absolutely unbelievable

(01:16:10):
The name is crazy
The dead Ribbonem band
And it was in a small
Little club
I couldn't believe it
It was actually was
The dead Ribbonem with her band
A whole bunch of pieces of plays
Get tired on it
And I'm telling you now, she was absolutely superb
She's the same age as me
Just on the, it's about 60's
And after the show, she came over to me

(01:16:32):
Because it wasn't more than 60 people there
Right
And I had a beautiful photograph with her
And we exchanged some great stories about
Nebwith
I was one of the guys that actually was at Nebwith
When Led Zeppelin played
Right
So I can give you four credits on that one there
And she was talking about
She's her career has been a little bit constrained

(01:16:53):
Because everybody thinks she's living on her back
If I'd rather jump
Right
And so you're now, she's not, it's one of the finest acts I've seen
But just to keep us all on our toes
She did do two Led Zeppelin songs at the end
And the set as the uncool
I'll let you tell you
Everybody was on for it
It was a great night
It was a beautiful, a good scramble
I have seen

(01:17:14):
I have seen Jason
Bond
And
I'm getting chills talking about it
But when he does, I think it's movie dick
And they put, they show him why I want to stage
And they put the screen of John behind him
Doing that
It's just, it's so perfectly in sync

(01:17:35):
It's absolutely amazing
And it's in the jeans
Oh yeah, it's absolutely amazing
Every time I've seen, every time I see Jason
It's always been an unbelievable show
Well, let's, I'm going to do a book for the Deborah Bonham band
If every got a chance, I'll see it in the future
I'll just check in

(01:17:56):
I'll check in
You can use it in the blue festival a couple of them over there
Her band used to support
Poor Rogers band for a long time
They were poor Rogers musicians
So she's well connected, she's a great artist
So the VA band is out there
But I'm going to recommend Deborah Bonham
She's going to chance for you
Okay
So, good work questions Paul

(01:18:18):
What do you see?
What are our answers there?
Can you give us a little bit of the behind the scenes
Creative process for the upcoming album, yeah?
Absolutely
So we've got all nine songs
Going 9, maybe 10
The tenth one is a really recording of Paul Mann

(01:18:39):
I think you have a copy of that
From the high-cloud days
So I really recorded that in Gillis Studios
Completely different, the melody stays the same
The lyrics stay the same
But we've updated the musicianship on it
You wouldn't think you could do that
What we have done, we've changed the tempo
We've picked up the song slightly longer

(01:19:01):
And I'm super proud of that one
So that was really neat reaching back into my own
Library and saying let's get on with that
But the new music that you're hearing
has come out of my VIP suite development
And into really what Paul asked you once
I do
And that is to really let people hear my voice
Michael to really understand that
I'm not just a bit of a metal singer

(01:19:24):
I can bow that I can ask you
Saying melodies that people want to do
And I have these songs inside me
Right
At my own I can't scream and shout and ball to my voice
Balls out on the floor
Right
It's not what I do
I want to sing songs that people
I can sing along with that's number first process
Second process is
I've got a lot of years under my belt

(01:19:45):
I've seen a lot of things
I've travelled around the world
So I'm using that experiences
Around the world to
Right about contemporaneous problems
Lambda Plenty is about
You know guys that are working
Veteran sleeping on the street
Kids aren't getting people going cold
In countries like yours in mind

(01:20:07):
We know we are well to help
Right
And we've got to start handing out help
I don't I know people don't want to think
Why should I look after that guy in this guy here
But I hope people listen to the songs
And then
We're driven by the music
And then pulled into the lyrics
Right
So all the songs are track coming out cover girl
It's about the Instagram world
And the bullying that happens to young boys and girls

(01:20:30):
When they really believe everything they see on this
To grandma TikTok
Right
And the millions followers that have been following it
One thing wrong and they will send all the hate mail in the world to you
Oh yeah
So yeah cover songs cover girl talks about that
Lambda Plenty talks about
Sharing a little bit
Stock the rain is about

(01:20:51):
People in lousy relationships
Millies of things I've seen in my life
Right
I've got another track called Gasanoil
You're going to look that one
When that kicks out
And the one it called
I just call original rock and roll star
Which I'm going to release
It's an old BIP track
It's asking a dedicated to
Tony Dallow at the singer from

(01:21:12):
Sorry
It's about original rock
It should have been the biggest star that he was
Right
So I've got that to there
And we're just writing about
What we know as individuals
What we've seen
What we've felt
What we've heard
You know from banging in need
To get in drunk in a bar with friends
Right
People want to relate to every word on the song
And that's where I'm going

(01:21:34):
I don't think about which is
I don't think about Devils
I don't think about it
You will understand every word in my songs
And be able to relate to them
And that's what I'm looking for
Really my relatable music
Let me ask you one more question
Do you have any advice for
Inspiring musicians up and coming?

(01:21:56):
I do
For a lot of people who are in the musical school
There are one like
Teddy by a guy called Eddie Waller
The idea behind it is to
Let youngsters
In independent bands
Contours
For advice about 10 to 15 people are involved

(01:22:19):
And also from production from radio
Work like you
To see how much they want to get involved
I think the main advice is this
Only once so I hope everybody is listening
You must
You must follow your dream
Right
You're not break away
If you start and you really truly believe in your music

(01:22:42):
Let nothing stand in your way
Nothing
Never let parents, girlfriends or boyfriends
Whatever that is
You must keep going
On the all the pressure when you're exhausted
Keep going again
If a crowd turns out or there's only two people in that room
You'd play as if there's 50,000 in that room
Right

(01:23:03):
One day there will be 50,000
You have to believe in every single thing that you do in that band
Right
And that is the only advice I can do
I didn't take it myself to be honest with your Michael
I made a break in my musical career
Didn't have the money coming in
Got disillusioned
You can change it in the music revolution of punk

(01:23:24):
And new way, even blah, blah, blah
That I felt I was just I'll never be seen again
But I came back to it and just look at this
Look, look, I'm on a radio show with a great DJ here
Spreading the world
No, you know, listen to me with Oscar
So I'm back and I'm back with the dreamer still alive
I took my dream box down from the top of the wardrobe

(01:23:45):
Blue off of your own little
And there was the magic of music still in it
And it hasn't changed in me
My heart is as passionate for that music
Now as it was when I was 19
Right
And you get a chance to see his live on this tour
Or the chance to jump into the music
I promise you that your listeners
Are going to enjoy the music from the
What's played on the radio or pick it off of Spotify

(01:24:07):
Or whatever, band camp where we've got it launched
But I encourage him to come to the show
It's a thing that's seen
And as you know Mike was playing over in LA in August
Right
You know, come down
You know, if you're there on our side, listen, check it
Come in for free on my diet
I want you to come in and listen to a real rock and roll band
And we've had some real support, by the way, from American bands

(01:24:32):
To the LA aid album
Lovely, what is this?
And I've been in the port
Visualizing Carlos
Mike out of Stongpusher
He's been a real asset towards
And as Carlos and many others
We'll reach up just to say, look, we can't wait to see you over here
We'll look what you're doing
We'll get the message

(01:24:53):
Right
So Paul, we have a little surprise for the people
We have
Yeah
You want to take us into this
Okay, so this is our new hit
It's called Saturday Night
Nobody'll insert it until you hit it here
On Mike's show on the dot 101

(01:25:17):
What can I say about it?
When you hear it, it's a loud
Man, you know, you haven't been with you
Make sure you're going around or you're buddies in the van
The truck, the car, wherever you are
But turn it up loud
Rock and roll down the night away
And remember it Saturday night
Here on your radio
That's right
All right, Paul, hey man, thanks for million for taking a time out

(01:25:40):

Like so many others going before
And now that now's the time to look you

(01:33:35):
Yeah
Yes, I'm your side so take your shots

(01:33:58):
This one chance I'll make you look God
You're cowardly, this is easy to detect
You lost castladers and I'm resumed
Yeah, you wanted that so right

(01:34:23):
You got it all the time, because I wanted it not
For your friends who might hate you
Because you're the one who's
Because you're the one who's
Because.

(01:34:49):
These handles all the you wallf på
And you will make your final stand
Though you've been to the other way
Don't let your chances slip away

(01:35:13):
Yeah, you wanted that's all right
You got it hold on tight
Cause I wanted a fair friend to find
And they used to worship her mama

(01:35:35):

(01:42:20):
Oh
Charrished No

(01:42:55):
I'm not sure anymore
We can take a chance on destiny
Open up this morning, just a fantasy
Stun calling fate
Maybe we met for a reason

(01:43:17):
Always a chance, did we just meet for a reason
Yeah
We can make our dreams reality

(01:43:49):
Turn it up, let the music be the remedy
Well, some call it fate
Maybe we met for a reason
Always a chance, did we just meet for a reason

(01:44:34):
We can build it up, we can scream and shout
We can turn it down, I'm throwing it away
We can build it up, we can scream and shout
We can turn it down, I'm throwing it away

(01:44:56):
Yeah, we can build it up, we can build it up
We can work it up, we can be left alone
With nothing to say

(01:45:29):
Show it up, we can take a chance on destiny
Open up this morning, just a fantasy
Stun calling fate
Maybe we met for a reason

(01:45:50):
Always a chance, did we just meet for a reason
Yeah

(01:46:17):
Turn it up, let the music be the remedy

(01:47:11):
question of honor, name it at track.
Go check these bands out. You can find them on all your social media platforms on this third rock from the Sun that we call Earth.
There's a lot of great rate bands up.
Join some support by their albums, CDs, swag, whatever.

(01:47:35):
Or if you can't afford to do that, like and share their music on your social media platform,
there'd be extra Instagram or Facebook.
These bands need your help because without these bands, we're not going to have any more national acts.
So I got a couple more tunes for you. I got some throwing solo with running scared brand new stuff in here to the metal shop and a link.

(01:48:01):
I got some three-mind blight with ragdolls.
So with that being said, keep them horns up, keep a head banging, where that battle jacket probably.
Crank it, while you're going to do 11 ripp the knob off. Do whatever it is you've got to do to
your neighbor. Keep it metal. You're just crawling solo. This is run scared right here on the metal shop on a one.
