(00:45):
Do you want to introduce the podcast?
No. You always put me on the spot.
If you say before, Look, I'm going tojust put you on the spot.
Okay, I'll prepare something.
But you never. Do.

Hot new podcast to incredibly trendy, hot,
hot and hip happening

(01:30):
people who
reviews from the.
80 from the eighties.
Occasionally the early nineties occasion
really really pushing.
If we want to bring things back up.
So get those gen gen-z
as I would get rid of the Gen Z, Gen-X,Gen Z or Gen X, I'm.

(01:53):
Gen-X, Gen Y.
I'm millennial.
Which is what Jacqui is.
I'm an elder millennial, thoughI'm not a millennial.
We get to be with the Millennials.
It's like I'm the middle child of
generations.
I'm the middle child in actual life.
Therefore, over looked comes to meand then the middle child

(02:15):
because I'd be like all millennial things.
Like when you find that you reach in 40
and fuck a millennial compatibleabout like, where am I then?
I'm nothing. I'm an elder.
I think the term is likeelderly millennials.
They say podcast that I've listenedto a few times called the X Annual.
So I think that sounds like so.

(02:37):
Zanny was sothe elder millennials are a bit
closer to Gen X, which is what you are.
for you took my OC and the X is the older.
And I said, okay, yeah.
And reasonwhy I think just like younger folk.
Young Gen X is. Sorrow.
Kids like sorrow, don't they?

(02:57):
So remember that kids like zero.
Kids going zero in like the forties.
Yeah, kids like zero.
And so that's Gen Z, That's fine.
The only way to remember is.
Then the thing that goes said to methat young people like.
No. Okay, well, there'sprobably a word that we don't know.
Like, look muffett for the day and

(03:21):
okay.
Where were we?
Where essential.
I'm an accidental, essential.
Okay. Got it.
Lost to the millennialbecause that's all, like
your anxiety replacement.
So it's not untrue.
Yeah, that Gen Gen X is all self-loathing.

(03:43):
So I'm empathic a little bit.
Both Yeah.
yes. They both the bestbits of both of it.
Anxiety and hate riddled.
So I didn't record,I didn't like make a note of it.
The we started recording this podcastabout a year ago, right.

(04:03):
Because we put the first episode outon February 2nd or something.
So we get close to that.
But I'd forgotten thewe have a few things recorded and in the
can when we release our first oneand so must have been fine by this time.
Maybe in a classic,
the first episodewhere we didn't have a name, I

(04:28):
So yeah.
What was shethe one that was the wasn't part of Martin
So someone else could have becausesomeone else had something similar.
The appetite for discussion that was one.
That's quite good. Yeah. Less of nothing.
Yeah. Yeah, there were some really good.
But someone had
something that was too similaror someone had that, but it wasn't that.

(04:50):
Yeah.
They were like a podcast about it,but it was sort of the same.
Know that. Let me,let me just what you do.
Actually, we've got a WhatsApp groupshe knew me could with.
I never put anything on it.Well why would we.
Talk to each other.
Don't talk to

(05:12):
let's revisit some of the classic.
Sort of ages. I think you're spot of aged.
Someone's got that.
Yeah, I think there's a few of that.
I saw.
I saw a thing ages ago and it was some,but we started a new podcast.
It was a spinoff of an existing oneand they want school sources.
Scaredy Cat is about someonewatching horror movies and right.

(05:34):
Just loads of people were messaging andsaying there's already one called this.
And then it turns out there were aboutseven podcast called Scaredy Cat.
And she is.
She's surely at this stage in everyone'slife, we've got to accept that there were
going to be some crossovers with namesbecause there were only so many words.
Exactly like when we're not

(05:57):
really coming up
with too many wordseach year outweigh the.
And recent news.
Except they were not. Yeah, true.
And I think we've got to accept thatit's not it's going to happen
and it's not likeit was in the old days where we like
didn't know what copying each other.
That just, just so happens there's lotpeople in the world, not so many words.

(06:18):
And you could have the exactsame idea as someone else.
So no, it's not ideas anymore, but.
It's still going to be different,isn't it?
Because you differentpeople weren't exactly.
So they they get.
So could you just go with whatever.
Yeah.
But then we could have got all thosehorrible will saying in part of Asia.

(06:39):
Is I guess there's no chemical with maths.
Yet, but there will bebecause that happen, you.
Know, voyages who I thinkis of his friends both of them met
their podcast recently about on May two
There'sanother podcast called Maiden Voyages.

(06:59):
And again listen to both.
You know, they're differentbecause different people
that they were going to cause call theirs.
Can I play with podcast.
That's quite good
they should do that well they know.
To maiden voyages is a name for.
I don't know kind of podcast is stupidand I like stupid.

(07:21):
Saying if you got it wrong use itDeep cuts or.
No, no deep cuts. Some silence. Okay.
So by Bryan Adams just let's go withdo you know that song by Bryan Adams
and you'll all be thinking like,Yeah, that one. All right.
So it's not simply bad.
Not, not simply bad. Fine. Is
this era.
Well, yeah, exactly.

(07:42):
Though back in the day, I.
I don't think I hate it simply bad.
But Justin,the ending of I'm wasn't interested
I think Megan hook nose tooth
gem thing or whatever is sort offreak me out a bit but he's sort.
Of an arrogant personso people don't like stuff that he does
because he's, he always says no one'sabout something to me, you know, is.

(08:05):
Might be true though.
Now I think I'm joking. Don't come at me.
But yeah so no
massive fan when they were hot
and then nowevery time you hear some bad song,
there's no wayyou're not thinking this guy good to any
and I I'd argue any sympathy that comes upyou'll be thinking

(08:27):
that's all right and then you listento anybody else, right?
I'm trying to think of a shape. Well,they control you, but they.
Come on, baby.
I mean, there's going to be deep cuts ofsympathy at the I don't know, album chart.
I'm not talking about those.
No, talking about me,The ones we hear on the radio.
So even like it's a wonderwhen the massive button as a satellite.

(08:48):
So I challenge you to goand listen simply read best of and not be
just enjoying life while you doing it.
I have a bath.
I've got. Six. You have a bath?
You know the Q magazines I bought?
Yes. At least one of themhas got makeup on the cover.
So if you want to do a deep diveinto the world or simply that massively.

(09:09):
No, I don't.
I don't imagine I mean, no offense.
I just want to sayI'm not interesting as a person,
so I'm not claiming
that I'm better than anyone,but I just don't
I don't really care.
Can you think they've been doingI just think the songs are pretty good.
But can you think of any other bandswhere there's a name of the band

(09:32):
but it's just one person?
Because simply by this just makeupand Wasn't it funny?
Got a band as well?
Yeah, but you don't, you don't think,well the bass player incentivisation.
Yeah,but if you're a fan simply what you would
people might say about Aerosmith.
People who don't know might be like,when they see I'm sure actually

(09:52):
in my place of business,I'm sure something's been mentioned
by Aerosmith and it's been Steven Tylerthey're talking about
and they've said Aerosmith.
So, you know, his name is Aerosmith.
Yeah.
So if you don't know the band,you are going to not know.
I think we simply read.
I don't know.
Because you're not a fan, I guess the bassplayer could be fucking awesome.

(10:13):
But I think he's all sections guys.
I don't think you know.
You don't even know. That. But like.
When you don't know,
but when you see you are digging yourselfa hole with fans here.
They are now going to be.
Promotional photos of simply red.
You don't see pictures of five guys.
The secrets of him are doing the city hator with his eyes with his teeth.

(10:36):
I never pay attention.
All right. I can put this to the test.
I'll I'm going on the Google.
100% that he hasn't just got a randombunch of guys that literally change
every single timehe's on stage when they record and shoot.
Right.
So what's the first image that comes up?
It's him.
The second I'm going to. Go.

(10:57):
By, it's like the 10th one that comes upis simply.
Something.
We really simply makeand a bunch of other people give me.
Mini like Big Reeves.
I mean, that is a banger.
That's a lot about me. Is it. Honestly,
to challenge

(11:18):
the challenge.
For listenerswho only fucking want to hear
metal like it's
fine to simply read.
So that isn't how old you might be, but.
Isn't it quite metal to usand something that's not expected
and that is perhapsgoing against the grain.
So therefore it'sthe most metal thing in the world
because it's, it'sso not metal that it's metal.

(11:41):
I mean that is a hot take.
That's the hoist of takes.
That's a bit too hot Satanic. Exactly.Yeah.
Because a metal you can't take.
To have a look at crying.
Yeah.
Well then on the cover simply read.
Wait, we haven't talked about Disney.
Your friends yet.

(12:02):
Did you read the music
from the back and do it in French?
Next week's issue of crying
is number 176 since February 27th, 1988.
So on the cover we got heartto heart class about animals on the prowl
in the UK we've also got palace

(12:23):
Motorhead Atom Kraftthe accused dog star more.
And so we don't mind.What we've seen Dr. Moore.
And what we're going to get.
So so spoiler.
Free fifth angel flexi this
spoiler alert that is not me in this issueit's been for a.
Be really disappointed
the person who gave us all these for freeif they'd let us in there.

(12:47):
And I think one of.
These magazines. Husk or flexi distill.
It must be shit.
Still bound into it.
May be maybe I could be completely wrong.
Now remember. Them.
So in Mayhem this week,the first new story
the main used tobe Sabbat too heavy for Udo
Sabbat rapidly rising thrash starshave been unceremoniously

(13:09):
booted off the support site with Udo Bandfronted by ex except singer Udo
Schneider, who have also canceledtheir only British date.
Landis London story
Sabbat guitarist Andy Sneed brokethe news to mayhem from a phone box
in Dusseldorf, where he confirmedthat the band had been asked
to leave the tourfor being quote too heavy.

(13:32):
Or, you know, the amount of timesI've been asked to stop doing something
come to have these I all I.
Do you think AndySnape is putting a bit of a spin on this.
That is 100% they hate itgot a call from that same phone booth
and they'd be like,Yo dude, what are we doing over a nebula?

(13:53):
I'm sorry to break this to you.
The British.
What have about. It from the.
Well, my accent's great anyway,so it could be from anywhere.
And then they.
They would be just like,celebrate this to a man.
But just too damn heavy.
And then So.
A German bandand a British band have an altercation.

(14:17):
But I will speak.
Hit the mic, Max. I'm happy.
You see, that's an American accent.
And then
it popped out.
So every French and German person,they were trying to do an accent.
So I don't think we can that.
But it sounds better.

(14:38):
And then he would have like
hit like May.
Well what he maybe would sayto the receiver in shock
and then he would have slammed it downand then slammed it down again
to make sure it's double down.
And then so we would have likedto have held his head against the
so thephone would you call the phone thing so

(15:01):
you could open up the receiver, the box,but not the phone box.
But they made it.
The numbers on
it have put his head down on that
and then maybe would have likeif he was really angry,
maybe would have punchedthe one of the inside walls
and then sort of storm now and thensort of walked really dramatically away.
But there would have been definitelysome music playing of the tone

(15:24):
and it would have been very cool.
Well, Saba, obviously very heavy,very thrash.
Yeah, too heavy.
He's he's going to be angry, isn't it?
He's angry in one. Yeah.
But then a bear stormed off,
went straight into that recording studio.
There was it was round the corner,he walked straight in
and some people in the waywere trying to be like your I.

(15:46):
And he just walked straight past themand they were like, What?
Why is he in such a bad mood?
And then he walked straight past.
He sat downand he just started singing something.
And people are like, my God,where is this from?
And then thenthat was like that biggest hit.
We shoulddo this or Bohemian Rhapsody style.
Just write a page in it.

(16:07):
But I'll play Mr.
Sabbat in you Can play Record Guy.
He tells me I'm too heavyand we don't need anyone else.
No one will.
Ever do this will have to
have some people in the record studio
because I maybe needto push bus parcel in the street.
So like thatand walking to one sort of gets him away

(16:28):
and I have to push past them.
We can get you. In next you.
I want to see him.
I miss.
You. Andy Snape.
Andy Snape. Yeah.
And then so we need a couple of extrasfor the recording shoot,
but get like mum to do that.
I don't,
I mean, I cannot imagine what thismovie is going to be like.

(16:51):
I mean, so far it's one scene, but it's
still acorns.
Now it looks likeeverything has to start somewhere.
Okay, so continue the story.
Okay.
Horse of you,are you familiar with Paul Sabu?
Obviously.
Possibly the only man on earthwho could challenge Michael
Bolton for the title of world'sgreatest human being.

(17:15):
Keep coming back.
Michael Bolton is the human brain.
So I think he's a sort ofsoft rock old guy
that he wrote
the song Scream Until You Like It,
which was recently lost. Too.
But I quote, It's a good song then

(17:35):
I don'tI don't think justice was done to it.
So we've done it, says Paul Blackie.
Lawless wouldn'teven let me in the studio,
and I was supposed to be producing now,do you believe?
I think Paul is in It's been a lot becauseif you were hired to be a producer.
Yeah,because he turned up at a recording studio
and he was like,Hey, man, I'm here to do the producing.

(17:56):
And then Bucketloadsgoes, Whoa, you're not coming in here.
And then he's like, What?
And then BLACKWELL
shuts the door in his face,and then he's like, looking in disbelief.
It turns around, and then he triesto open the door and it's locked.
And then he stormsoff in the other direction.
That does actually sound a bit like black.
It all looks what you just did.

(18:17):
And if you keep doing the same accent
for everyone, it'swhat monkeys and high rises.
for a broken, broken clock. My
yes, my bouncing little woman.
And Blackie Lawless is he did an
and for whatever rock showI used to listen to on local radio.

(18:38):
He'd say, You listen.You're listening to the rock show on.
And then supposing BBC Radio two AlcesterBlack Orchestra.
Welcome to the lounges.
And. See Rolling Cheese, man.
I thought I'd be able to find that onthe Internet and I'm not going to find it

(18:58):
a story.
Woohoo!
Thank God you told us that you.
Lost for mega it and there's an advertfor Just Like Paradise
Nice by Dave Lee Roth. If you buy it,
you get a special collector's packwith a large color poster.
John annoys meabout special collector's packs. I
was part of that

(19:20):
first one and Honkin on Bobo came out
and I preordered Hong Honkin and Boboand a preordered it from
HMV and I went and got it on the day,you know, got it sent to me
because I was even better than goingHoliday got sent to me,
and then someone we knew

(19:41):
went out and just bought
from HMV one day, just like not on the dayit came out, whatever.
And they got this little silver harmonicathat came with it.
The said honkin on Bobo and have the logo.
And that never not annoyed me since theI preordered it.
I didn't get that, so I preordered.
I was bothered enough to preorder it

(20:01):
and get it sent before it was going to bereleased in shops and I didn't get that.
Well,someone who just rocks up to a shop. Yes.
And that annoyed me.
You were there for Air Force One. Yeah.
Yes. Disgusting.
And then also that and also
Eyeball Pub, obviously the album.
And then my

(20:23):
brother went to a
charity shoplike literally 10,000 years later
bought itand his inlay opened up into like a
not a fortress I bigger than a full posterthat was with my inflated
and mainly was like, like a book with thelike still with the lyrics on fine but.

(20:45):
That this all open to. You.
Yeah yeah but so he had a better titleand I've never got over that either.
That's weird.
And then
yeah and I remember being really angryat my dad, having to explain to my brother
at the time that it's finethat I was I'm great.
And he should understand that.
It would be quite annoying.
And I appreciate that my dad understoodat the time

(21:07):
how, yes, I was allowed to be angryat that and I should have been.
So two thingsI've ever while out on my list.
Dave Lee will.
Debut a. Collectors.
Collector'spack. Yeah. Yeah. Because nice.
Because I had appealedthat probably at the time.
Maybe I wouldn't at the time, obviously.
But and I would have got something.

(21:28):
But not that.
And then someone would have wanderedinto the Smiths two weeks later.
I've got that.
And that's my point that
yeah, my.
Only comparable story tothat is in the early eighties
I asked for Star Wars Digital Watch.
Who didn't write.

(21:49):
I mean, digital watches were all the rage.
So pretty good.
And I asked my mum,they said she sent off for it
and they obviously took about six monthsto do this.
And the thing about this other picture
of all too frequently,I think other little Tiny fighter
is a little digital thing to showthat, you know, take in

(22:10):
and it said, he plays the Star Wars thing.
That's what pretty fucking cool.
Yeah, right. And when it came,
it looked the same.
They had a little piece of paperwith it saying, We know you ordered one
with the actual Star Wars music,but it doesn't have it.
Well, he he said.
He ordered something, but they foundthey couldn't put the music in the.

(22:34):
What. I mean. Yeah.
Because that technologydefinitely didn't exist back then.
So it's a very bold claimbecause it'd be like saying
they also put a hologram up of, you know.
It's just like, Yeah.
And then you have your pressand she comes up on you and you're like,
But surely I know as a child of this timethat that tech doesn't exist.

(22:55):
So I mean, holograms, it doesn't exist,but you so you fell for it in a way.
It's really awful.
Technology.
It's such a beep version of the songactually.
Did he just admittedeven MIDI file at best?
No, it was it was a primitive.
Yeah, it.
Sounds even worse, but supreme.
But I'm saying medieval

(23:16):
is like the absolute lowest of the lowin terms of what we're talking about.
No, lower. Yeah, exactly. But on a watch
in the seventies, in.
The eighties, early eighties.
Still come on.
The people had like Space invaderson the watches back then you know in the.
Early eighties yeah.
It was starting to be ityou could put all sorts on the.

(23:38):
Digital I need to see proof of this.
Great you look brilliant.
But but bear in mind, in the 2000 sums,
the ₹2,000 snake on iPhone,
that that that's the levelit was in the 2000 and snake was hot She.

(23:58):
Wasn'tthat I don't think I ever played snakes.
Because you're losing you never know
but but what I'm saying isI can't believe that that tech existed
when in the 2000, the millennium,
we had snake as our best option.
On a phone.
Not a phone. Yeah, but on a phone.

(24:19):
Yeah. You know about what?
We was the equivalent.
So communication.
I've got some letters to you coming.

(24:42):
The very long one about Meridian.
Phew.
It's not.
It's not great.
There's nice picture them wearing suits.
Fisher, which looks a bit like a mast.
Yeah, but he saw played up to thaton the on this tour.
He, he had like a big, shaggy, furry
concoction.
He says her I think it's the is hair's

(25:02):
thinning and recedingand this is the kind of straggling.
Back.
It better it just shows shaggy from bitsthat just make him look unkempt
and I'm sure he's like, no.
But it's just that gives the illusion of
the is looks a bit disheveled and
that's all I ever see them

(25:23):
looking to be. Yeah.
Which is I think.
That that wasn't a thing then.
No. The eighties I think that was a niceespecially for looks.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You need to let your freak flag flydon't you.
Yeah.
So this is a no lecture about me really.
And this is a lot about faith and more.

(25:45):
The headlines don't care a jot.
You understand that funny reference
that a song called We Care A lot.
Okay, So he said when he said, funny.
Don't care at all. Yes.
I mean, it's just so funny.
That's great.
People usually jot the. Know.

(26:05):
In a conversation,rephrase them or interview pictures.
I'll move. You advertise like gigs.
Big Jim Martin is probablythe biggest wanker ever to get anchor on.
He's big band is especially big jobsI've ever heard.
I remember was last time you heardshe referred to his big jobs.

(26:26):
That's what I used to say.Is it because they took.
To the not so that in.
Yeah.
I've seen on telly. In the England.
Is it there.
So I feel like there's somethingI'll tell you this is big
job referring to.
Who does it.
Doesn't the policeman say to Adrian

(26:47):
Edmondson, Vivienne
a policeman goes,
it says you lot, you studentsalways giving police a bad name.
And Vivienne goes, what, like big jobs.
Yeah,I think it might be that I think is that.
And even then that was retro and biggestsort of big jobs of ever heard.
And far from having a big thrash feeling,they sound like cameo.

(27:11):
Yes, Cameo.
Larry Blackman in this big red box.
It pisses me off that bag.
A big load of shitlike this even gets into crying.
It is disco shit.
Wow. Counterpoint.
The next letter that was from Big Band on
the next Saturday is from Andy Grahamand Colin from Hash EPS.

(27:31):
Again, Student Hash Hustle.
We would like to take this opportunityto thank Faith
no more for an excellent gig at Glasgow.
Queen MarkMargaret's Union were an excellent time
back at the Grosvenor Hotel.
It was such a pleasureto witness their mind blowing site.
So refreshing compared to the majorityof every male band,
you seem to be so stale and conformist

(27:53):
faith of of no pretensions.
And they, like us,certainly know how to party once more.
Billy, Chuck, Jim, Mike and Roddy,thanks again.
I'm sure you go on to much greater things.
This is very. Helpful.
It's very nice response. Yeah.
Okay. There's another letter here.
Rock and Roll radio.
This is from CrazyGordon McLaren in Glasgow.

(28:17):
Easy, my mother, to be on the road.
Road to Rock when she bought mea little tranny on Black Friday the 13th.
Do they have Black Friday back then?
Same thing they did.
On the 13th. What though?
It's just same Black Fridaythe 13th Swede.
I thought it came from America recentlybecause it's Thanksgiving.

(28:39):
Yeah, it's weird.
Obviously they hadn't gone ska.
It was the color that people feared.
Black enamel.
I was petrified with the devil riseout of this little white box.
I cautiously turned on the musicBlasphemy against the wall.
It was the devil's music.
Paranoid by black Sabbath.
Now you know why Jesus stuck tothe cross is to was turned up full blast

(29:01):
and the devil in white between these dayslater the batteries in my tranny run dry
it says tranny a lot.
Of these it's going to say we'regoing to address that fact we're trying.
To straight them.
Yeah and he's he know us are tryingto be offensive minister this is you're
repeating verbatim what was writtenin the eighties about transistor radio.

(29:22):
Let's not just go on the record.
So we returned to the letter.
I was totally hooked.
Couldn't have it. My mind grew warped.
The speakers grew bigger over the yearsand the sound pummeled my brain into meant
some supper was good that night.
The decibels grew loudertill the threshold of pain was reached.
Then I heard Motorhead.This was definitely overkill.
I was struck to the ceiling for a week,but I survived.

(29:44):
And though I was nearly so.
Is this a letter writtenby a human being and human adult?
Gordon McLaren I mean, you might be.
Hey, Andromeda,
you see the ceiling were.

Now what is her look?
She's just themlike she's got a lot of tattoos,
but they're not like, pretentiousbecause they look, she.
I mean, it helps.
She's incredibly pretty, you know?

(31:06):
And she's got really nice hair,
you know?
So I kind of feel like you could sort ofjust look.
Anyways, you've got her face and her like,whereas I couldn't
I had like a crazy bag lady, but
so she's, she's kind of like,now that's over.

(31:26):
And if she's a bit sort of big,
grungy bit hippie, but like,
but doesn't come across as
pretentious and domain
and let me see if I can know. Just
she seems like she's very comfortablewith existence in the world,

(31:47):
which seems like you don't oftenget that impression from a lot of people
being like, Well.Not people with children. No.
Yeah, exactly.
So when her age as well,she just seems like she's hit on.
I'm comfortable, I'm happy, which
she. Does.
I mean, she does actually look a bitlike the guy from Incubus.
And that's not an insult to either,because he's very pretty.

(32:10):
Well, she's very.
Do you know Brandon Boyd?
I think he's cool. Though.
she's got cats as well.
So she's
she's right.
She's got like no makeup on your hair.
All messy,but she's all, like, dead, you know,
just I'm going to play guitarand I look good doing it.
I don't like, you know, like, if I was me,I thought, like a been

(32:33):
so housebound for a few months.
It's quite annoying,
but also, like, good on a fine.
What kind of music did she do?
I mean, obviously she's going in. I mean.
She plays guitar.
Yeah. Muscle fit a bit. Yeah.
No, no.
We'll have to put some ParisJackson on the playlist.

(32:56):
Yeah.
Did she get like a like his money
and. No idea.
Because he's got a little boyhe's got Blanket.
With well, a blanket in this.
For Prince.
Michael Junior or Prince Michael.
The blanket wasn't pretty, so.
No, no,there's three of them. Right. Okay.

(33:16):
But yeah,
so that's just my house Jacksonappreciation post that she's very pretty.
She's got lovely hair.
She looks kind of comfortablewith the life and just.
Yeah, well, I don't know. I don't.
I don't know whether she's a good actorfrom watching her in that TV show, but

(33:36):
she wasn't she she's good actually.
She's just.
She's just like that.
But she wasn't proper, like,
bitchy. Yeah.
So mean girls.
But I get I don't get the impressionthat she's not kind of.
This is now a power station.
So you're a big fan of XM?

(33:57):
I play with Paris.
Just.
Yeah, just.
Yeah, A lot of us.
And we all like Porsche, and so
we all do now.
Talk about Incubus, the eighties
and nineties, so late nineties

(34:19):
they were
superfucking hip like in the late nineties.
So when I was at collegeyou go to the rock night
and they'd be playing
a certain shade of green andbut like they played that song for years
after so when we go in that when I met youwe go to places and they like
said shade of green and nu skin like,

(34:40):
like influenced my faithno more, you know, that's all funk metal,
really good.
Like we're really so bonkers.
In a band around till Twilight.
JJ are you waiting for
now at the back of the show?
How bout Stop saidHey, hey, hey, hey, hey,

(35:05):
Stop that.
They they got a bit of soft rock, melodicrock after that, but still good, you.
Might.
Say. That's your whole recommendation.
Written a new band,
Incubus Kids.
Hey, kids. Really?
There's nothing in the like, album.
Teen Kids. Kids

(35:26):
Got another letter for you?
Yeah.
David Group.
It has recently beenbrought to my attention.
The Whitesnake X Come and Get It albumin the song Hot Stuff.
David Coverdale appears to be singingI Just Can't Get It Up.
And I thought you set your mind.
And that is from a frustrated nymphomania.

(35:48):
So it's just written in with thatand that says that's the risk
because let's not forgetthis isn't some random junk text.
If it is, they've writtenthis and center in the post,
William Weldon.
Weldon And they probably gota lot more letters in this.

(36:08):
So that was one of the better ones.
Yeah.
I mean, honestly, I could read this memo.My God, to you.
They should totally.
Know. I don't want to thank you.
They should totally find all the letters,just like
they were just too much for the magazineand then release like a whole.
They owners should releasea podcast of these letters.

(36:31):
Nobody just angry, frustrated people who,
you know,
I mean, well, they're angry out there
that they would cover it up fromget it out though.
I think she's juicy.
She just thinks it's a bit of a zinger.
You know.
What to point out some in the he'sputting out a serious point out what.

(36:54):
She's saying It sounds like e sayingI just can't get it up
that I don't think he's singingthat he's singing something is fine.
right.
So Sing Burn to Sick Burn, And he'snot going to he's going to be kind
and he's going to eat thatand he's going to be like blushing
when he read it and think, no, tell peopleso I can get a powerhouse thing.

(37:15):
I got it.
I mean, okay, he's fucking.
My 20. Percent.
Is going to be so embarrassed
when he reads that whole Coverdale.
I'm going to Vol salvo.
I wonder if we can find that on YouTubefor the playlist.
Just update.

(37:36):
Them.
Well, I mean, there'll be limited slipthrough there on.
Yeah.
Yeah copyright.
Maybe that's not my thing.
So the last letter Yeah
and just short letterin support of Ronny Deila.
first of all all you ask face busting.
you keep slagging off Ronnie Dio forwriting about rainbows and dragons, etc.

(37:59):
If you don't like what he does, thenpiss off a bit of fun videos of 12 years
and I'm not fed up with himand his dragons etc..
First of all, literally no one's fed upwith him and his dragons, etc.
No one is.
And also, yes, I phone if.
There is a very professional musician
and a very kind person,I also and also puts on an excellent show.

(38:23):
I myself get very pissed off
with thrash and death metal,but don't keep writing about it.
I'll just leave it alone and watch it fadeaway.
This from Gary C, who describes itselfas Ronnie Dodds Castlegate.
A man with graffiti about slash thrash.
Don't get it. But

(38:44):
God bless him.
So one has to come to RonnieJames Dio defense.
I'm sick of everyone just standing bypretending he's not getting all this shit
about dragons and shit.
Right about time someone said something.
Jeez.
So on the next page,

(39:04):
no one knows my name.
You've seen a bit of Ronnie.
If you're going to react to it like.
It was, a cover version.
Is the actual thing.
Okay, so this is an article about DogStar more.
Okay, we've seen that.
Support.
Dog. Some will single.

(39:25):
How come it never rains picked upradio play a plenty recently
only a handful of copies made itto the stores due to poor distribution.
I out of that monster of rock
I mean dodged a bullet the other oneI don't remember.
I remember.
So maybe them being on stage,but I remember anything about.
That time ago.

(39:46):
I remember specifically choirboys,
specifically Thunder,and I remember specifically Alice Cooper.
I remember all those them on stage.
Because. It was really fun to cry.
Boys because Spike leaned downand got a light of a cigaret.
And so in the audience,which was very funny.
Got away with that Batman.

(40:07):
And Thunder, which is good.
Yeah.
And then obviouslyAlice Cooper was was good.
And then
some guy being a dick in the audience
and I told So stop being a dick, Naomi.
And he's like,What are you going to do in school?
Out comes on.
I remember that was like, well,I mean, my God, what is the option?

(40:29):
Like not get punched in the face byyou probably have a kind of a choice.
You don't want.
But yeah, so I remember
ask you,but I'm not going in equal measures
what it was.
So we sent jokes more.
We don't really. Rememberbut yeah we don't.

(40:50):
But I'm sure they were great.
I seem to remember
the look in the same as they didin the eighties.
They look like choirboys.
They still have the look.
Where is thunder?
Thunder Down.
The north.
And a lot more like so.
Yeah. I mean. Paul, say good.
Good.Fucking hate. my God. I mean thunder.

(41:12):
Yeah.
Great songs.
Look,
not so much now.
Not so much now.
This was about 20, 20something, years young.
You just told Fresh Air.
And it sounds good.
I just said it looks disheveled
like that,where you might go in for that look.

(41:34):
I'm going to read you a quote.
And if you want me to cut thisfrom the podcast, I will
we'll go ontowe'll try and get into that ball game.
Other bands are tryingto get out of single album to single
album, to click the bandsthat do all that shit, a bunch of cunts.
Anyway.
I wouldn't want to do thatbecause the word count,

(41:55):
I think we all knowthat's my favorite word.
I'm not bothered.
Well,those get you flagged up in some sort of.
I've already got this is.
Will contain.
Explicit language not for children.
What makes you say all the time then.
Children not want to listen to them.
please pleaseplease let me listen to those two

(42:18):
deals and Gen-Xers talk about stuffI don't care about.
Please.
It's ironic.
Steve Jobs almost echoing the sentimentsof a conversation I had with choirboys
guitarist Ginger quote,I thought Guns Roses were awful
Faster pussycat or Mouse better.
They moved around more and I better songs.

(42:39):
Those two are more as a bit of a
they they were mobile.
I love rock and roll bands, continuesTyler Tyler's main guy in the band.
The trouble with some of themis they take drugs and try and live out
someone else's image.Everyone tries to be Keith Richards.
They go out, look like him,take fucking smack and say, I'm in a band.

(43:00):
The one thing they forget ishe writes hit records.
He made a living out of this shit.
You got to get somewhere firstbefore we can act like that.
I know I sound like a dad or something,but I stuck it for a long time.
Hey, you raises a good point.
He's a good point.
There's an advert for
Zodiac Mind Warp and Love Reactiontattooed beat Messiah.

(43:24):
That is a beat saying.
That's debut album and we're going to becoming back to Zodiac
or in this issue.
there's a bit there's a bit more
from talks to more.
Picture than the.
Yeah.
So so.
Look, I look like choirboys.

(43:47):
I wish I could remember them.
It's not exactly in that same vein.
It's sort of
drunk in a bluesy rock.
You know.
We tell the story about when we met Spike.
I don't think we have.
To went to see Choirboys,a very small venue.

(44:11):
I want to say recently.
But it was pointed out
it was when I was working at this place,Business Church
within the last five years. Okay.
And so probably four years.
And we went to see them andthey were like, excellent ten at him. And
then Spike
was hanging on the bar afterwardsand he was

(44:36):
one of them was four,and we had a photo with him
and you just knowthey had no idea what was going on.
But we did go out with himand that's all that matters.
But he was really.
It wasn't he.
Wouldn't say it didn't seem
any differentto how he was in the eighties
in terms of his voiceand his performance and stuff.
And in between the songs, you could tellhe was a little bit refreshed.

(44:58):
But like. You. ST Yeah.
Yeah, really, really good.
Excellent.
Yeah.
Okay, so I've got one more quote from Dr.
Moore.
Even though we want to talkabout the choirboys.
And I questioned himon being banned from front.
No, not the name of a club.We're talking the whole country.

(45:19):
Quote, It was June 86.
We were playing a festival in Lille.
We were in a dodgy hotel, light fittings,hanging off the wall,
stains on mattresses.
So we threw the bed out the window,followed by tables and chairs,
and we nearly killed a coffin, a mattressfalling from three stories.
This, like quite heavy.
Next thingwhere we're at gunpoint, Colt 44.

(45:40):
It was like a siege.And we put in this police van.
For some reason,the seats just fell apart.
So they did us for that as well.
When we go out the next day,we went on a drinking spree to celebrate
and not variousfights ended up at some flat,
well plastered.
I mean, they could have been bannedfrom the entire country.

(46:00):
But that's the story that suddenly.
It's a good story.
Right.
So on a slightly lighter note,we got another feature, our old pal.
So the Mind Warp.
I remember you being quite interested in.
because he was quite.
A sexy. Guy. Sexy? Yeah. Yeah.
About the army.

(46:22):
Let me Google.
Okay.
So they describe a mind group is a manthat reads comic books.
Well, he the chick
he brought home sleeps and hangs aroundcorridors Spider-Man style.
It's not that they spell Spider-Manwithout the hyphen, so that annoyed me.
Were taken down to a nice, quiet officewhere I can conduct the interview

(46:45):
by a nice Phonogram ladywho asks if we want tea or anything.
What's the anything on orange juice?
She punctuates?
We stopped offering alcoholafter they pointed to Zoe.
Baby came here.
I wasn't going to pussyfoot with a bloke.
I wasn't even going to let his John CooperClarke slash Bobby Ball accent
throw me off.

(47:05):
So you know what, John? Keep the clocks.I was like.
Yes, Salford.
Salford. So a lot.
Yeah, certainly for us, your roots.
So this is a quote from Zodiac.
It's weird.
The US audienceexactly the same as the one over here.
I thought they'd all look the guylike the guys in here.
Thumbing through a copy of Hit Parade.
It sat in pounds. Bon Jovi.

(47:28):
That business.
They look more AC, DCleather jackets and grubby old jeans.
So apparentlyhe's like really into comics.
So they're asking him,would you like to follow Case
and Alice Cooperinto the pages of the Marvel mag
quote Definitely without a doubt.
In like a graphic novelor the epic series Epic

(47:48):
at the time was a more so
grown up imprint.
Marvel Comics.
They did.
They did kind of the betterprinting stuff.
That's not really not really the point.
I really like that more other orientatedbecause they do some absolute shite
marvel. The majority in fact is crap.
Even Daredevil decidedI still get every month

(48:10):
he's still my favorite.
what might your factfriendly neighborhood Spider-Man.
I've gone off that fucker.
Any reason
he's just saying this kid's stuff.
He like some you know stufflike Judge Dredd the big guns
kind, Frank Miller's Dark Knight Returns

(48:31):
and that sort of thing.
As a newly
newlywed, what are your views on marriage?
What is okay then?
Having a madeit wasn't really interesting.
Kerrang readers, though they'llprobably think only sissies get married.
sweet.
It's nice.

(48:54):
What happened to backseat education?
The follow up to Prime Moverwhere we got no radio action.
We didn't get a video option either
because it was like methrowing that Chinese girl around
in the back of the car and everythingand the BBC didn't like it.
So I find this video
I'm going to play a bit, Tina,
but it's got a really interesting bitat the beginning.

(49:16):
When John Wayne is disgusted.
I once I saw my oldest sixand my youngest five were subject
to a young oriental woman being onein a game of cars and then driven off
by a bunch of leatherclad hoodlums, the leader of which Mr.
Zodiac time will screamthe tuneless depraved
lyric Backseat Education Choir friends.

(49:38):
I was appalled.
My youngest asked me,Daddy, what is backseat education?
Come on Channel four,this really isn't good enough.
You want to write the.
This is a special car.

(50:03):
No words.
Do you want me to teach?
Yeah.
That's all.
Commando

(50:25):
will handle the will as a takemy hands off the wheel.
So yeah, the idea backseateducation is quite saucy,
quite voluble. Yes.
God knows why he did play it.
I mean, they weren't playing the outlawrock at the time, were they, Bon Jovi?
No, They're poison.

(50:47):
There's a feature
about the accused SeattleHardcore Noise boys.
Then they're annoyed
that Alice Cooper is describing his musicas splatter rock.
And I nearly hit the roof.
It's okay if that's what you wantto call it, but he better give it credit.

(51:07):
So basically, they're making outthat they invented the term splatter.
Well. I've even heard of terms that rock.
I think, is sort ofjust sort of horror related.
All the songs are about
killing and not.
it's nice.
The current shriek blade cook of the USpolitical punks.

(51:29):
The farts
just farts with a Z.
Walcott is.
The band's first.
He releases Martha Splatterhad a very limited release of 500 copies
and the return of Martha splatter has
delivered a more than generousdose of Blaine's twisted
lyricismin between a potent hardcore metal.

(51:50):
So quote Martha Splatterhead is our mascot.
Sort of like Iron Maiden's Eddie.
I wanted to create a killer, though.
Too many people would get down on usbeing sexist if it was a male killer.
So I created woman, a crazy womanwith a huge knife and big tits.
Okay, So thank God
that.

(52:10):
Feminist came to the rescueand sort it all out.
And this is what you.
We're drifting away from the horror.
Fancy stuff.
Too many bands are trying to do that.
And I think with songs like Halo Flies,we do that better than most.
So they've got some cool Halo five,
right, which is an AliceCooper song isn't like that.

(52:31):
It's not. It's not cover you. It.
Yeah. Yeah.
So this is.
What we listen to everyday.
That was
our scoop songthat's never heard for ages.
I remember it was.
The little things.
Yeah.

(52:53):
Okay.
You shall. Have to put that on. Here.
That's a really good some snippets.
Okay.
There's,
there's a feature view from the bar facts.
Everyone in Coronation Street reads crime.
Okay, it's true.
We told you only last weekthat we were at Bar HQ.

(53:15):
Something if you in classic Mike Baldwin
style gazing while I did the doingsof Jack Duckworth of duty Barlow
while we spotted it off the pressescopy The world's finest, the big K there
it was the issue with RobertPlant on the cover
no less racked up like a goodan on the shelf in written May.
This is a little corner shop.
So as you can so it's in one shopand so everyone of reads it apparently.

(53:37):
So to
yeah maybe just Mavis
we got the shop
There's a big feature Motet.
Okay, I'mgoing to read you some quotes from that.
They're basically saying they're not rich,
they don't have any money.

(53:58):
Did I say they were?
And it mentions Michael Palin's plea
for trousers on the rock and roll album, 8to 5 in the true situation.
I remember my friend lend me this album,because just because of Michael Palin,
right at the end,he sort of doing a funny vicar voice

(54:18):
and asking peopleto send the trousers in to Motorhead.
And I listened to it was first gettinginto music and Bo had way too much for me.
I was just like brilliant at the time.
But he said, Well, just let me see,because I thought Michael hated that.
So that reminded me that
bless thou.

(54:39):
These people from Motorhead,
that they may so verily in da
the people of this planetwith pleasure and enjoyment.
The j they may barely increase fourfold.
They're already large sums of lootand enable them here
in this life to purchasemaybe one other pair of trousers, each

(55:03):
O Lord thou who has seen the trialsand listen had compassion.
Look down upon them.
Thank you so quote from me.
It was like that the first timewe came here with four Peace,
remembersLamela, the lamb in the back of the box
Jack and coke in handTitanic video on screen.

(55:24):
So it's 1988.
So it is not James Cameron's tonic, but
it goes on to say he'sreally, really into the Titanic.
So he watches all these videosand the history of the Titanic.
So loss of the other common cause.
Now that's that well within you know,I've got an appreciation
for the historical event of the Titanic.

(55:46):
You've you've told me some facts about
boring things.
Like every photo you see that isn't.
On Apocalypse Now.
I know someone has come at mewith real titanic facts that
will make me look stupid.
Yeah.

(56:06):
Historical videos, preferably about the SS
Titanic and.
my God.
I bet you were so excitedwhen Titanic came out.
We'll have to find an interview with him.
What gives his opinion on Mason?
You know, silly, I think was.
Good it wasn't like a letdown,was I was good.

(56:27):
This film
is facing a lot of boats.
If I have havethe people in the ship are going to die.
Now I have I said to.
You're a big Kate Winslet fan on me.
That's one of the big Kate Winslet film.No, actually.
I didn't say. This.
Most peoplewell, anyone with eyes and ears,

(56:51):
how can you not be?
Do you prefer her in holidayor in Christmas, Carol?
Christmas Carol.
I mean, I don't want to be mean,but the holy shit.
Isn't that telling. Meyou liked it? No, it was.
It's not us. I.
I resisted for so long because, you know.
So look at it in the trailer.
What? This shit And you all changed.
I was the lama.

(57:12):
And it's only because you really,really thought, shit.
It's like it's just pretty bad, but.
And it's pretty bad.
I won't see on the cinema.
It must have been disappointing.
Why so many is.
I'd say it's bang average,but I think it's a bit less than that.
It's okay if you just want to meet Sarahfor a few hours.

(57:34):
What is the best bit of the holiday?
Right.
The beginning.
It's the factshe works in the center of London.
London.
And then she's commutes. Yeah.
She commutes like the 16th century here.

(57:54):
So she commutes to
foggy old.
She works in foggy old London town.
And then she commutesto, like, Jane Austen.
Shire.
Yeah.
Her gardener is of Duke.
And yeah,
I mean, it's a bit lameand I like lame stuff.

(58:16):
I've won a whole Christmas filmabout a tree.
Told you this. Before.
You know these people.
Why would I bring this up?
But it was a film that I saw,and so this is even shoot for me.
And it was about
this woman who a tree in a garden
and it was going to diebecause of some disease.

(58:38):
So they had to cut it down,but she didn't want it to be cut down.
And then they were going tothey wanted it to be the tree at like
Rockefeller Center or something.
And she went there and then it ended upthe no, she'd said they wanted it.
She didn't want to give it,and then they still wanted it.
And then they found out it had the diseaseand shut it down anyway.
So they had to announce they were goingto put in Rockefeller Center anyway.

(58:59):
And that the scene when they werecutting it out and she was crying,
I genuinely cried.
And I thought,What on earth have I become?
I'm watching this film about a tree.
I'm crying because the kid down a treein this fictitious it was properly stupid,
but urge you to watch itbecause it does have a lot in common.
Matthew McCarthy from Weekend at Bernie's.

(59:25):
Yeah, exactly.
I mean, just now.
Yeah. Well, what's this film called?
Is it called The Christmas Tree.
As Poppy is a tree?
No, not.
Hey, you, you coming up in Europe,the guy you call, Matthew McCarthy.

It's ground me down.
So the end of any Chelsea filmis going to be kind of actually, only.
I think the holiday is about to.
I was thinking.
In my because I did itthis one bit at the beginning.
I genuinely saw Willis is shit,this is stupid.
And then honestly, you are engaged.
I mean, I totally spoiler the end becausethe tree down but it's worth a watch.

(01:00:35):
Christmas Tree 1996 film on Netflix.

It may not be Christmas, but
it's Christmas in our hearts, especiallywhen we watch Christmas favorites.
Yeah, it's got so really
a bunch of clothes and something really

(01:01:17):
uncomfortable.
Sure, we get
so we talk about Titanic.
Kate Winslet holiday is. Your focus. Is itthat.
You said you said you said about Titanic.
It wasn't my fault.
The fact remains a levy is one of life'soriginal medical enigmas.
Quote, funny

(01:01:38):
you should say, that rumbles aroundgroveling throat and conjuring speech.
Quote, I once heard about this businesswhere Keith Richards
went to havehis blood changed in Sweden or somewhere.
So I thought I'd take some testsand maybe have it done
so I wouldn't need anything anymore.
And do you know what the doctors advisedme against?
Changing my blood.
Said the fresh blood could kill me.

(01:01:59):
I was a fucking laugh,that one. Fresh blood could kill me.
Anything That is a thing.
Is it changing your blood? No, Like.
Like an oil change, I think.
Well, I'm not a rock star,so it might be for the elite, but
it's not something I've ever been offered.
He said I'll retirebefore I start to look stupid.

(01:02:20):
I have to.
Otherwise, how can I make that bigcomeback when I ain't in a band no more?
I'll spend a couple of yearscashing in doing chat shows and stuff,
and I'll go back to what I was going to dowhen I was a kid and breeding horses
for the longterm. It's the horses that interest me.
Maybe a bit journalismto want to do it on my terms.
So I mean, he never did retire.

(01:02:49):
The only thing respect
wise that ever pissed me off was that mylyrics never go appreciate more.
I'm pissed offbecause I write good lyrics.
I'm good with the English languageand I'm a fairly literate person.
I think they're above this in this show,so I suppose I'm a bit angry about
that.
He gets a bit miffedwhen he's accused of being sexy.

(01:03:11):
So racist.
Anyway,do you think he thought we were sexist?
Racist? It's completely fucking stupid.
I worked for him, worshiped Hendrix,for fuck's sake.
Motörhead took Girlschoolout of the Wandsworth rehearsal.
We would put them on the road,so don't talk to me about that shit.
I was for sexism, but I like fucking.
In these trendyand socially aware times I'd be considered

(01:03:32):
a sexist for saying that you don't thinkyou would really watch it.
Some people might.
It's possible.
So once we got
there's a little feature
about a guy called Jeff Paris

(01:03:54):
who think
and Jeff Paris,the man most likely to see us
succeed, SirMichael Bolton in the Iowa Hall of Fame.
Right again like thatconstantly somebody Michael Bolton.
So I guess he's a sort of soft rock guy.
In 1986, he released his first album,Race to Paradise,

(01:04:14):
which remains a compelling introductionto some amazing air magic.
However,it was wide out, the hit The Bullseye.
That's a melodic hard rock album.
You won't find this side of MichaelBolton's everybody's crazy masterpiece.
Well, that is a masterpiece.
I mean, if you want it to.
Michael used to be so normal.
So you be a doctor, lawyer or something.

(01:04:36):
Normal like that. Normal,
normal human went into Eminem and Cleaves.
Everybody's great bingo kind of stuff.
We talk about you have everybody's crazy.
It's got to be on there. Yes.

(01:04:57):
Okay.
So I've got a serious question for you.
Is that possible?
A new feature of this potential.
So we got the personal sense.
Yeah,and not in this issue, but some of them.
They got pen pals.
Yeah.
And I was listen to a podcastcalled The Giddy Carousel of Pop.
We've probably mentioned for it'skind of one of the our off

(01:05:18):
here is probably one of this all
tangential inspirations
for this podcastis I take an old issue of smash hits
and they do exactly what we do,but they never talk about the same bands
because these smash hits come.
But one thing they
do is people who write for pen pals.
They find them and contact themand they ask them,

(01:05:41):
Did anyone reply to youand did you stay in touch with anyone?
Yeah.
So rather than just do that,I was going to ask you,
do you think that's something we can dobecause there aren't any nicks,
Because it's all it wasthat says stuff like
Male Rush, Meridian Fan,
Lost Soul, Princess Animal,

(01:06:03):
You know,they all say in a big dome in that
Yeah, in the pen palSometimes they have actual names right.
Well you could try.
I mean, it'd be worth a try when you try.
So there aren't any in this one.
But in the next one we're going to look atthere's a penthouse section in
some people's name. So I will
try. I mean, basically look on Facebook.
Yeah.

(01:06:24):
So that's going to be fun.
Okay. Have fun, isn't it?
Right.
Okay, so there's a big feature on Heart.
Okay.
So they're talking about this song.
Like, my favorite Heart song is calledDream of the Armchair.
Right?
If you have a dream, the you know, it'sall kind of twinkly acoustic stuff.
And he says it's the nearest thing to Led

(01:06:44):
Zeppelin's Battle of Evermore,which they went on to cover
that I realized recently, justthe other day when I was reading this,
that it sounds like all the music infucking Boulders Gate three
It sounds like cold, medieval, twinkly,you know, folksy.
That's that's why I like it.
They yeah,

(01:07:28):
the aliens would take me up,
in my humble opinion.
And Wilson was one of the greatestfemale voices in the world.
What does she think about the suddenupsurge in girly, vocal,
particularly oneslike Madonna, Tiffany or Debbie Gibson?
So apparently there were no female singersbefore 1988,

(01:07:49):
to quote let's put it this way,she says with a crackling voice.
I think that's the amazing.
But their main relevanceis not in the voice area.
Who would like to be comparedto that kind of performer?
Unfortunately,that seems to match up with image clothes
and the way they look as well.
It seems to me it's a real PC.
If you're talented and ugly, you don'tstand much of a chance in this business.

(01:08:11):
My support goes out to people
Alison Moyet and Kate Bush,who are really talented performers.
Now, I don't think she's accusingAlison Moyet and Kate Bush.
I would say if I was one of them,I'd be like, Well,
now I'm upset and I'm going to be a bitsad for a minute.
It's come out like
slightly insulting,as I'm sure that wasn't the intent

(01:08:35):
without it.
No, probably no.
Look,
so in shrapnel,
I mean, get shrapnel is mostly on demosand gigs and stuff
with lesser known bands.
Northeast Hard Rock Band, Fatal Attraction
wish to inform Cumbria basedFatal Attraction and London based Fatal

(01:09:00):
that anyone and anyone elsethat the above moniker has been in
use by them for a number of years.
So I do like the kind of PC
nature of that
and I thought, I'm
going to finish off this episodewith the quiz again.
I've got.
Right.
So I'm going to give youI've got four bands.

(01:09:23):
Right.
And I've got four.
So descriptions in those bands, right?
So they're the full metal Messiah,the Bond
Stiletto and Die Christ or do Christ.
So I know nothing about any of the.
No, no, no, no investors, right.
William So One of them is a

(01:09:43):
Huddersfield hardcore speed metal band.
One of them is a London glam rock band.
One of them is influenced by Maiden
Sabbath and Metallica,and one of them is So prog.
So can you put the names of the bandswith the genres and descriptions.
The London band, this Stiletto?

(01:10:05):
Absolutely Bang on and
so what?
So we've got we've got Prog,we've got influenced
by Maiden Sabbath and Metallica.
You can imagine what that sounds like.
And you and we've got a hardcore speedmetal band.
Nyquist will be hardcore speed metal.
Absolutely bang on to our two.

(01:10:27):
And we go to concert
want prog for.
Want prog.
So neo progbecause it was formed by Ed Bond.

Yeah.
It's 12th night vocals just man on metal.
Metal Messiah is the Maiden Sabbath.
So there you go.
I'm very talented.
Fucking aced Star.

(01:10:48):
Thank you.
So, yeah, that's the end of our issue.
What we what we learned from.
Addicted to Don't watch the holidayWatch the Christmas Tree

Merry Christmas.
It may no longer be Christmas.
We won't be Christmas.
But the film still exists.
