Speaker 1 (00:11):
This says the Uncle Henry Show here on news radio
seven to ten WNTM. Now, in this segment of the show,
once again, Ryan Pablo Foster is back from the Mobile
Sanger Theater and really the Convention Center, everything entertainment wise
down there, all of it. How are things going? There
are things that the Sanger things are good.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Had a great weekend with the Black Jacket Symphony this
past Friday night. That was a wild time Jimmy Buffett thing.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Yeah, they were the people that came to town and
pretended to be Jimmy Buffett and played Jimmy Buffett's.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Song That's right. What was that like?

Speaker 1 (00:45):
What was the crowd? Like?

Speaker 2 (00:46):
All the parrot heads showed up and everybody had their
tropical shirts on, and I even think I saw a
couple of coconut bras. Okay, what on gentlemen?

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Average age, average age of attendant.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Average age probably thirty five plus, I would say, you know,
leaning on the plus. Yeah, yeah, I mean that's a
nice way to say.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
More than one plus.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Oh yeah, well young ones as well.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
I went to the Alison Krause Jimmy Friday Night Alison
Krause at the wharf Amphitheater, yeah. Uh, it's the only
concert I've been to in the last several years where
everybody going was older than me.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Really, yes, so just care true because my sister was
at that show.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
Okay, almost everybody was older than me other than your sister.
But uh, but the Jimmy Buffett Black.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Jacket and they are coming back October fourth, what is
that going to be?

Speaker 1 (01:38):
What are they doing October fourth at the Sanger.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
As you like to say, they will pretend to be
people from the era of yacht rock.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Oh, they're not doing a specific artist.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
They're doing that much weird.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
You know, that's kind of an odd genre of what
fits yacht rock.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Well, there's a huge debate around what actually constitutes yacht rock.
So Toto to me it was more of a rock band.
But they technically, I guess, fall into this genre of
yacht rock as well, along with Kenny Loggins Christopher Cross.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
This would be. And so anybody, if I go to
the dentist and I hear it at the dentist, is
that automatically yacht rock?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
No, because you might hear Celine Dion at the dentist.
Is not that would not okay? But uh, you know,
Holland Oates is included in this, but a lot of
people would say, Holly Oates is pop, not yacht rock.
It's up for you to decide.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Do the people do Do they mind being included in
yacht rock? Do you think that bands like it when
they're yacht rock? I know you think Toto's excited that
they're yacht rock.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
I know some bands do not like to be associated
with yacht rock?

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Why not?

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Why? What's wrong with that? I don't know. We all
want one. Well, you have people like Michael McDonald and
the Doobie Brothers and there they embrace it.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
They should.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
I don't know why someone would not want to be
considered yat rock, especially at this point in their careers.
So this is what when says the newbie, we have
my friend Adeline, whether it's Adeline or is you know
Toto yacht rock? Me into the microphone, out, into the
microphone maybe maybe?

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Okay, Adeline? Do you are you aware of Toto? Have
you been? Has your mind been altered by Toto?

Speaker 2 (03:17):
It has?

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (03:18):
You know them?

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Then? Do you know the other people he talked about?
Kenny Loggins, Kenny Loggins, Doobie Brothers.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Steely Dan.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
No, this is good.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Good for her, and this is why we keep her around.
She's the young one, and we don't she knows all
these young hip things. We don't know.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
We don't need previous generations trash infecting the mind of
a person that is younger, that has got their life
ahead of them. Oh come on, she didn't look they
named their band after a marijuana cigarette with Doobie Brothers. Well,
I mean she doesn't need to know about them.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Okay, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
So now when is this again?

Speaker 2 (03:52):

Speaker 1 (03:54):
And where can people find information on this?

Speaker 2 (03:57):

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Oh really yeah, okay?

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Where? Well you tell me? Yeah, I don't work for iHeartRadio.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Nobody nobody's hoping we were. We were getting away tickets.
So I'm gonna guess you the listener would go.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
To uh, I talked to those Rocket to the go
to the Rocket.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Go to ninety six to one the Rocket dot com
or whatever their website is. I'm sure they're giving away
this stuff. Yeah, but this is gonna be is well,
it's going to be a sellout. This is going to
sell out. People love this music, Yes.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Absolutely, people love these shows. The Black Jacket Sympondy always
does an amazing job. Whatever artist they are paying tribute to,
it's always a fantastic show.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Now in the same vein, I saw that you you
announced that the guy from Rio Speedwagon, Yeah, is coming
to the Sanger Theater and he but he's they have
been in some kind of a legal battle, and he
used to be he was touring as Ario Speedwagon and
now they he can't use the name. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
I guess it was something like that, but it's still
it's still Ario speed Well, it's Kevin Cronan band now
and they will be coming September eighteenth. But Kevin Cronan
the lead singer of Ario Speedwagon for the entirety of
its exist Yes, indeed, so it is the voice of
Ario Speedwagon and his current band makeup have been touring
as Rio for decades apparently. But I guess one of

(05:24):
the original guys from we back when said I technically
object to using the name whatever it is. So now
it's Kevin Cronan band, but it is all the hits
of Ario Speedwagon by the guy who sang all those
classic songs.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
You know, well, I saw I saw him, I saw them.
I saw this band called Ario Speedwagon at the wharf
not too many months ago. And if you, if you
the listener, are a fan for whatever weird reason of this,
it's just it's the band. It is Ario Speedwagon. So
if you like that, you're gonna you know, heard it

(05:57):
from a friend who heard it from another that you've
been messing on that.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
And this is why Kevin Cronin is gonna keep on
loving you onunk.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Okay, I don't want to go any further into areo lyrics.
I just realized how horrible it sounds coming out of
an actual adatemail.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
We can take it on the run and move on
to something else.

Speaker 1 (06:13):

should respect it.

Speaker 1 (07:24):

fun and they're gonna sell the sucker out and throw
toast and toilet paper and all the things they do
at the classic Rocky Horror shows. This has a memorabilia display,
costume contest, a live shadow cast like you like to
talk about. I don't know what that means pretends to
be another band. Shadow cast is there will be actors

(07:49):
on the stage as the movie plays behind them. Basically,
think of it as actors lip syncing along to the
movie as the movie. I've never heard of this.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Have they done it with other movieses, other musicals and things.

Speaker 2 (08:02):

movie plays, while the audience participates. It's gonna be very
very cool if that's coming up. September twenty fourth. Pre
sale for that begins tomorrow, all right, Tickets on sale Friday.
