Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's the after show decompression session, doing what they do best,
glabbing their gums.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
It can't what on Monday.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
You know, I kept trying to rack my brain to
figure out who would be the surprise show because the
boss kept saying, it's a big show. It's a huge show.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Well it is, because they weren't expected to get back together,
but Paul McCartney talked him into it.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
And it seems like Geddy was dropping hints for the
past six months, because for the past six months he said,
he goes, you know, Alex and I just lived down
the street from each other, and we get together and
just do jam sessions. And then one interview he said,
he goes, you know, we don't record it because that
would take away from the beauty of our jam sessions.
(00:47):
And then last week he was talking about how back
in twenty twenty two, the Taylor Hawkins tribute show in London,
Paul McCartney, who had never heard them.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
By the way, Paul McCarty had never heard Rush.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
He never heard I mean that's what Getty said. He goes,
he'd never seen us, never heard of us, And he
saw the show and comes backstage and he.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Goes, you guys need to be back on the road.
You need to get Beckle on the road. Ringo says,
it's what we do.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
We recaol did other Beatles songs without all the members,
and you should do this right now.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Paul McCartney and Ringo need to do a Beatles reunion.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah, right right, that would.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Be super cool. Maybe with the Beatles kids or something.
George Harrison's son who's a great musician, Donald Jesse McCartney.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Maybe Julian Lennon, Sean Sean Lennon, because it takes two
Lennon's to make one John Lennon, I.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Guess it does.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
This is a really emotional day for me because for
their fortieth tour, which was their last run with Neil
for he got too sick to play. I reunited with
my high school buddies in Phoenix, Arizona to see that
final Rush show because way back in the eighties, we all,
the three of us all got together to see Rush
(01:59):
and Arizona. Then we made a big Rush rules banner
out of one of my mom's bed sheets.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I bet she appreciated it. Yeah, white sheets. Who cares?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Also emotional because of this. Over the weekend, I watched
Spinal Tap two. I really enjoyed it. Now there's moments
in there that are kind of they drawing out and
you're like, Okay, where are they going with this? But
overall I really enjoyed it, and I'm glad I bought it.
But listen, they do drummer auditions, and they talked to
(02:31):
all these big rock star drummers who blow them off.
Then they end up deciding in her drummer. Well, we're
going to give away a little bit of the movie here,
and it's a girl drummer awesome in Spinal Tap. Her
name is Kiki and she's absolutely incredible. She's a really,
really great drummer. But apart from that, unknown but a
good looking gal. And you should have seen her do
(02:51):
a job for Spinal Tap man. So this is really
cool to hear that Rush is kind of doing the
same thing. They're going, let's give a woman a shot.
And boy, would Neel approve? Neil would approve. He's smiling
on this.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Eddy and Alex both had said that they would It
could never be Rushed without Neil and so I but
fifty years and Paul McCartney in their ear, that's right.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
When did what did he die two fifteen.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
He saw them in twenty fifteen.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Said it's been like ten years.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he was not. He passed away
not long after.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
January seventh of twenty twenty in Santa Monica, California.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
It was twenty twenty. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Now remember Robert Plant said the same thing after John
Bonham died. But they ended up doing a thing or
two here and there.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Anyway, Yeah, you know, and you know the Food Fighters.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Yeah, the Food Fighters are going to soldier on and
what a personality tailor was in that band.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Well, we'll see, we'll see.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
It's really nice to get some huge news in the
classic rock world. It's been a mini i.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Know, because it was a big announcement, Oh what is
it nineteen ten fruit Gum.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Company that they only picked seven cities to go to
and we've been passed up. Paul McCartney's not playing North Texas.
He's in San Antonio, you know, October twenty fifth, but
he passed up North Texas. John Fogerty passed up North Texas.
And now that rush out of the seven cities that
they're going to play North Texas Dicky's Arena for you
(04:21):
know who else passed.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Us up the Doobie Brothers. That's right, son of a bit,
And we kind of brought that up to Tom Johnston.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Tom Johnson goes, we're not playing North Texas.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
What are you to talk to the promoter? What's going on? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Will you fix it there, John you fix it? Well,
we survived the weekend. I was so tired yesterday.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Really.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
I think it was just.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
The sun being out in the sun.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Now. The weather for the game was perfect.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Oh yeah, but when we were in Frog Alley, oh
my god, it was so hot.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
How do you guys like the new Frog Alley spot
that we have. Isn't that cool?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:57):
That's cool. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
We had the band passed by the cheerleader, the players.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Yeah, the walk into the stadium, all the players and
bands and stuff. They used to be around the corner
from where our tent was. Now they're right in our face.
I saw you guys shoot some video of that too.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
It was cool. But but they did not play the
Tomlinson dance video.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
We stayed through the end waiting for.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
It, yes, we stated till they were about to turn
the damn screen off.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
There was one moment in the fourth quarter when the
fourth quarter first started that we thought Bogo's like, get ready,
get ready.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I was gonna get you, take your phone out.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
They were doing like a highlight reel of LT and
then nothing we got.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Oh shit.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
I wonder if it's because last year we made so
much fun of it.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I wouldn't be at all surprised, and I bet we
weren't the only ones that were making fun.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh my god, but it was a nail bier.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I was so nervous.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
I was hanging out at Billy Bobster in the fourth
quarter of that TCU game, and they had it up
on all the screens, and they also had shit kicking
lessons going on on the smaller stage, a little cover
band playing and people out there boot scooting and stuff,
and was watching this. I'm going, oh Anna and Bow
must be so excited right now, oh yeah, because they're
about to crush this game.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Well, it started out like we were gonna get.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Yeah, because it was the running game for TCU was
just non existent.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Pretty good looking season for that team so far. Good
for them, not perfect.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Much better than my long Horns, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
The ass beat buff.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I told you about that headline that I read yesterday.
It was just like, Okay, well that's going to leave
a mark. It's the long Horns lost of Florida.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
It was like, they're not a very good team. That
was a headline.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
They're not a very good.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
That's a little judgmental, isn't it. Well, you know it
was true. Well we were white.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
We were listening on our way to Fort Worth, Bow
and I in the car and then I guess after
the second time that Florida scored up, I'm turning it off.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Does this make you kind of nervous about Texas? OUI?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Oh yeah, oh y, you know what. I would be
nervous no matter what, because whenever Oklahoma and Texas play,
even if Texas was having a winning season, you never
know what's going to happen when those two teams get together.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Longhorns kicked that ass last year against against Oklahoma. Oklahoma, didn't.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
I I don't remember they did.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
They did because I went to the State Fair the
next day and it was extra crazy because Texans had
won the game.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
I've slept since then. Speaking of sleeping, let's go. I
think we have a nap in our future. Yes please,
But we'll be back tomorrow with rush tickets at seven fifty.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Yeah, that's so weird to say.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I know.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
It's like saying, hey, we have Jimmy Hendrix tickets tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Yeah, well he's dead, all right, so we'll see you tomorrow.
And yeah, I'll have another stupid ass sci fi or
horror movie as a show.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
And it's toy Box Tuesday. And you're getting some requests,
aren't you.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, I've got a few, and there's a couple of
birthdays we will recognize. All right, Okay, we'll see y'all later.
Keep between the ditch and
It's the after show decompression session, doing what they do best,
glabbing their gums.
