Trivia Show, and here're your host Mark and Danny.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Alright, boys and girls, it's time for the Hard Rocking
Trivia Show. July twenty seventy nine, nineteen twenty, nineteen twenty five.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah, you're only twenty six years off. That's it.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, today today is my birthday. I'm sixty one years old.
Holy smokes.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Now we know why the nineteen oh man.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yeah, I got some alert. I got a little alert
on my my emails from this website from concerts and says,
forty three years ago you saw Queen and Billy Squire.
I'm like, oh my god, was that forty three years ago? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Forty three good low.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Hot Space Tourjeez, Now I'm really feeling out. Yeah, we're
we're in the backside of life there, Dan. I mean,
my son goes.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Oh yeah, especially with all the people around our age
dying this week.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, geez, let's go through the list. We got Ozzie,
who made it two weeks after. Yeah. With Ozzie, they
weren't kidding that he pulled it together for that one.
Because I saw some of the rehearsals where he was
just sitting there and other people were singing for him
because Billy Idol was there and Billy Idol didn't perform
during the concert, but in rehearsals Billy Idol was singing
(01:54):
and Ozzie was sitting in the chair, but Ozzie wanted
to sing, so the man pulled it up off at
the last second. I mean, amazing, and it that was it,
I mean, And then after he got his sent off
and said, you know what, I've done it all and
where his family Yep, he went. He did it the
right way.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
So who else was it? Chuck MANGIONI the was that was?
He played a horn? Was that horn?
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:22):
One hit?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Wonder I can't stand he was considered smooth jazz? Was he?
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Yeah? I didn't really, I didn't realize.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
And he had two he had two hits. The there
was one Sunrise I think was one, and then the
main song.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
He had I know what it's called.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yeah, it always reminds me of the Welcome by Cotter
or something.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
I guess turned two hits into a monster career, So
I mean, good for him. Yeah, it wasn't a fan
but Michael Malcolm Jamal Warner from The Cosby Show, who
was younger than we are.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, jeez, I mean.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
That Cosby showed was a monster that was st was
so popular, but you can't find it anymore because they
won't show it because of what Bill Cosby turned into.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Way to Go, Bill, Way to ruin your legacy.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Yeah, and all those people could have made money off
of that show and they get nothing because nobody can
see that thing anywhere. But right, Yeah, Connie Francis and
Hulk Hogan. Hulk Hogan was a big one older than that.
I think he was seventy one. But yeah, I guess
you just had a heart attack in the middle of
the night and went quick. I was like, wow, seventy
(03:32):
one a little too young there. Usually make it to
your eighties, but early seventies is rough. Yeah, that's that's
by the time we put this out tomorrow, somebody else
is gonna go. Who knows who's on the list.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It may be coming over the wire right now, Yeah,
somebody major.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah. So it seems the older we get more people
than we knew. I guess because there's more celebrities now.
The longer you go, and as every every week it's somebody. Wow. Yeah,
I have no idea. I'm sorry, I'm bumming everybody out here. Jeez.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Well yeah, Keith Richards is still alive. How's that happen?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
He's gonna outlive all of us.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yep, it's gonna be cockroaches and Keith Richards when the
plant goes. Wow. Yeah, I'm bummed.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
So you know, well, let's get to some questions.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Let's play some rapid fire.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
So rapid fire where we fire off three questions to
each other and try to try to trick each other,
I guess, or stump each other whatever. But I think
I got some good ones. I don't know if you'll
get any of these, so yeah, I think I didn't
make them too too difficult, but we'll see.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Which means I'm a choke on all three.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
And I think, well, you are a year older.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Yeah, I think you're gonna get one of my three.
So yeah, I am. I'm much older now.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, all right, Question number one for you? Who owns
the first oh in the Hollywood Sign?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
I believe that it's Alice Cooper, that is correct.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yes, he bought it for his good buddy, all that
actor with the Little Hitler mustache.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Ga Marx, not buster Ke, Yeah, Grocho Marx.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yeah, apparently he and Gratchro Marx were were good buddies.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
I knew they were buddies.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
They bought it for him.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, the Hitler mustache would be Charlie Chaplin.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, no, I think I think it's Gratchro Marx. But yeah, anyway,
this whole sign was falling apart, and he said he
asked city council how much how much to buy one
of the letters, and they said twenty seven thou He said, okay,
I'll buy the Oh the first.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Didn't other people buy the audience too?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah? Yeah, I think they've all been bought. But I
don't know who has the other actors and film people.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Okay, well, good question. Yeah so I don't know why
here you go, but I did. All right, Question number
one for you, name three bands that Michael Monroe has fronted.
Oh jeez, that's not one of them.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Besides, like the Michael Monroe band or that doesn't get
so actual bands that he's fronted.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
One of them is really obvious.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
All right. I can only think of Hanoi Rocks.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
All right, that's one.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Yeah, I can't think of any others that he.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Fronted okay, yeah, because they were both only one album
each and okay in nineteen. In nineteen ninety two he
fronted a band called Jerusalem Slim where it was a
supergroup with him and Steve Stevens and the album he
was in that Yeah, he was runner that band and
it was not good. They had their all these aless
(07:04):
guys in the album sucks. And then two years later
he had a band called demolitionh in twenty three which
was half punk covers and half originals, which is really good.
So Demolition twenty three is a must. Jerusalem Slim don't
even bother. You're wasting your money because it's only on mbare.
(07:25):
So those are the three.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Yeah, I'm I'm hoping to go see them with Oh
Buck Cherry, Yeah yeah, Oh they're playing. They're playing outside
of Philly in uh I think October, but yeah, they're
doing a whole year. I've never seen Michael Monroe or
Buck Cherry.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I saw Buck Cherry open for skid Row and they
were great. Never seen Michael Monroe. So yeah, they're playing
two Knights of the Whiskey. So I'm gonna have to
get tickets this week for sure, they're a little pricey
here because you got you basically had two headliners. So
I think there's seventy bucks here, but that's what I
paid when I saw and Kk's Priest together in a
(08:03):
small club. It was seventy bucks, but it was totally
worth it. You got two headlining sets. And I think
except except As touring with I think Queen's Reich on
a US tour, so you may want to check. I
know they're playing a couple of Pennsylvania dates, but I
don't know if they're near you, because Pennsylvania is a
big state, so it could could be close.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah. Yeah, the place where Buck Cherry is playing, that's
it's in Pennsylvania, outside of Philly, but it's only about
an hour from me. That's where you and I saw Mammoth.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That the Mighty Keswick Theater. But I don't think the Yeah,
I don't think except in Queen's Rock is playing there.
They're playing other cities, but only you'd know that they
were close to you or not. They might even be
playing New Jersey too, so I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I'll check it out, and Jersey could be closed or
it could be two and a half hours, so right,
we'll see, but I'm planning on going to see that
Michael Monroe and Buck Cherry. That should be a cool show.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Yeah, none of those bands are standing around looking at
their shoes for sure. Those are action action pack bands.
Fun stuff, you know, get you going.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
And the most expensive seats, I mean you can get
the like the VP seats, but the regular seats are
like most expensive is seventy one I think, and the
the most of the theater is like forty eight.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, we're totally worth it. The good it's a good
place to see a band.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
So yeah, it's a nice theater. Yeah all right, So
question number two for you, who are the only permanent
members of the Eagles of Death Metal?
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Oh my god, yeah, it's abandoned. I'm not a fan
of it all. I know the lead singer, I don't
even know his name. He's a white dude with a mustache.
Does that help you?
Speaker 2 (09:44):
It's only one narrows it down.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Do I know his name? I do not know his name.
His name is I don't know Steve Smith.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
No, that is incorrect. This singer's name is Jesse Hughes. Okay,
and the guy playing drums in this band is Josh Holm.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Okay, yeah, the guy probably no, Yeah, from Queens of
the Stone Age.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Yeah, yeah, I'm not he's the main dude in Queens
of the stone Age. But yet those are the two
guys and Eagles of death Metal and they're kind of
a I won't say, a joke band, but they're not
like a serious kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah, and not really metal either. I mean they're hard rock.
But oh no, you think they're not at all? Yeah? No, yeah,
some people love them, just not into them.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yeah, it was interesting that they were the not them particularly,
but their show was the target of that shooting in
Paris a couple of years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
That was weird. Was it because it was them or
they were just happened to be there.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I think they happened to be the band playing. I
don't know that they were particularly targeted because they weren't.
It was mostly fans that were shot, well, I mean
or concert goers. So weird.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
All right, Question two, which is the hardest of the
three questions I'm going to give to you today. Jeez,
people on podcast land, good luck with this one. Okay.
There's a drummer named Stacy Jones and he was in
a band called BMX Girl well, that name sucks. So
Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones actually suggested a better
(11:23):
name for the band, and they ended up going with
that and changing the name of the band. Can you
tell me what BMX girl turned into? And I'll give
you a hint. It's a power pop band.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Power pop band.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, and I think you, I know that you have
some of their stuff in your library for sure.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
It's not the Bowling Bones.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Is it the Bowling Bones? No, yes, Keith Richards, that's
bad you No, that was bad. But no, it's a
band that it's a band that you you've heard of.
And I'll give you a hint. Butcher s Walker does
have a hand or has had a hand in this
band's career. Uh. And the guy's name is Stacy Stacy Jones.
(12:09):
Don't even try to go look it up, sir, No,
we even though we don't do.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Oh no, I'm not you would hear me.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
And we know that Dane is not in the room
helping you with the answer, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with Hot, Hot Heat.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
That was pretty good, all right, but wrong. Sorry. I'm
going to see the Marvelous Three in September. And this
band is opening for them and Bitch butch Walker has
produced an album by them, but it's not Hot Hot Heat,
it is American High Fi. Oh man, So they're opening.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
That's gonna be such a great show.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
And I don't think I sold out yet. They're playing
two nights in a small club, like this is gonna
be awesome.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Not sold out in LA.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I don't think so yet. Well, because man, they they
could sell out a week in Atlanta.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Yeah crazy, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I guess the Chicago and and uh Atlanta sell out
right away, but I don't think they've sold that yet
in LA. And I think they're also playing I.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Wish they'd play in play in Philly.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I think they're playing in New York, So if you
wanted to go see them, I think you need to
drive to New York. So I think that's the other place.
They're only playing four cities this time. They started out
with two, then three, now they're going to four, so
I think, okay, you may have to road trip that
one there. So American High five BMX girl at one point.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, that is a terrible name. Yeah, American I five
is not that much better for the name, really, No.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
But I gotta I gotta whatever. I gotta start listening
to their album so I'm familiar with their songs. It's
been a long time since I listened to them.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Well, Marvel's three will be great, Oh man, of course
they better be. All right. So question number three for you. You're
one out of you're one out of two. So let's
see if you can bat over five hundred. Okay, how
many number one singles did the Steve Miller band have.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
I'm gonna say one.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Oh no, it was three. I think it was Abercadabra.
That's the one I figured, Rocking Me and the Joker
those were number one singles. Yep.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Wow, I did not in the US. I didn't know that.
I knew they had some big hits. Abercadabra was their
last one. I hate that song. It's awful. Oh yeah,
but the stuff in the seventies great.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I want to reach that and grab you. Oh yeah,
I probably killed this horrible that. There was another song
it was a big hit, but it was it only
made it to number two. I can't remember off the
top of my head where it was.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
There was the Jedi.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Yeah they had three.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Yeah, they had two huge albums. Yeah. Boring on stage though,
but in fact, they just canceled their US tour. They
said they said they gave a reason, but the real
reason was low ticket sales. But because they're not that exciting.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I'm sure they got well yeah they I mean they
they did that tour with def Leppard, Steve sure, Yeah,
they were, Uh when def Leppard did that stadium tour
just this past like spring, that's longer.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Yeah, they did do. They were like the opening band
for like part of those Yeah, I forgot about that.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Yeah, it was def Leppard and somebody else and either
Steve Miller or Cheap Trick or Heart Okay were your
three like opening bands, And of course Philly gets Steve Miller,
like you gotta be kidding what.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah, I'm going to see part on August twelfth. Never
seen them before in beautiful Bakersfield, California. Baker's Field, Yeah,
Bakersfield's when those towns you just blow right through. But
the tickets were pretty I'm I think I paid thirty
bucks a piece, so well with it. It's about an
hour and fifteen minute drive from where I live, so
(15:57):
I'm gonna me and the wife are going to go
make a little road trip on a Tuesday night, go
see Heart. Why not never seen him?
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I figured Sylvia would be going with you.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, hopefully they don't stink. So let's hope for.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
The Yeah that I don't know. What I've seen recently
is not good.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
But I've seen Anne in a wheelchair with gray hair.
And yes, some of the songs she pulls off, but
some of the other ones there are some of those
are tough songs to sing, and she yeah, she wasn't
quite hitting all the notes. And I am a big fan,
so I hope hopefully she can still sing and pull
it off.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
So yeah, well, we'll expect a review. Actually, all these
shows we need reviews on, so I will do my best, sir.
All right, So you got one out of three.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Yeah, all right, and you are currently o for two,
but you might get this one. This is the probably
the easiest question on you.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
All right.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
All right, We've already talked about Ozzy a little bit,
so this is an Ozzy Osbourne solo question. Okay, of
his first four solo albums, which one charted the highest
in the US. Is it Blizzard of Oz, Diary of
mad Man, Bark at the Moon or The Ultimate Sin?
Which one got to the highest number in the US.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
I'm gonna say the Ultimate Sin.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You'd be correct, yes, which.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Yeah, that had some big hits on it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
H that got the number six. Bark at the Moon
was nineteen, Diary mad Man was sixteen, and Blizzard of
Oz was twenty one. But I think out of all
those albums, I'm gonna guess Blizzard of Oz sold the most,
but the Ultimate Sin got the highest chart position. So
you went one for three, I went one through three.
That's two for six. So it's a decent batting average,
(17:42):
but not the.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Greatest in the world. It's okay, not do great. Not
do great for this show.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
That would be one. No, that's not bad. Three thirty three.
That's a good batting average for baseball.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Oh man, you'd be you'd be all star level there.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah, so I go, okay, So so we're all star
level this week. We're doing good?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
All right?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Nice? Not like that guy doing the flip from the
uh Savannah Bananas on TV. Did you see that?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Oh, you know this is a guy in Savannah Bananas
does a flip. So I guess he was on like
one of the morning shows and he did it, and
he didn't do so great. And he face planted his
his uh oh, his flip like ooh oh fuck he
got it off like he shook it off like nothing happened.
But oh that was embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Got anyway, speaking of Savannah Bananas, they were in Philly today.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Probably sold the place out, didn't.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
They They did completely sold out, unbelievable. You know, the
Phillies say they're sold out, but there's plenty of empty.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Seats because the season the season ticket holders probably go
to half the games and then they try to sell
the other half, and that they it's such happy team
they're playing, nobody wants to really go.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Yeah, you could. You could go to any game you want, really, Yeah,
I mean there's some some you know, if you go
to tickpck, there's plenty of seats all over the place.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yeah. I try to do tickpck like the night before
the game or the day of the game, and sometimes
you can get lucky. I was looking at Paul McCartney's
playing in Palm Springs in August. I'm thinking, Wow, maybe
I should go check it out. Cheapest seat for Paul
McCartney last row six hundred dollars. I mean, the venue's
not huge, the venue probably holds on. I guess eight thousand.
(19:26):
But I'm not sitting in the back row for six
hundred bucks apiece. Forget that. I think I would. I
think i'd pull the trigger. Decent seats for three hundred.
I think that's the most ever played for a show.
But I can't see spending six hundred a piece for show.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
I saw him once, I went by myself. It was
a birthday present from my mom for my fiftieth birthday,
and it was about tenth row right in the middle.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Oo.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I don't know how much she paid for it, but
it was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Oh, I'm sure it was. And I'm sure spend a
lot of money on.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
You, the freaking beetle.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
But yeah, yeah, I'm gonna keep checking. If it's not
of the show, and I think two hundred dollars, I
might pull the trigger. In two hundred dollars, just honey,
We're gonna take a two and a half hour drive
to Palm Springs and go see Paul McCartney. Okay, Colin
said I would tomorrow. I would do it.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
I would do that. I would for a couple hundred Yeah,
I'd do that.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
And it's not a stadium, it's a medium sized indoor arena.
It's like, yeah, I saw him in the Phillies Stadium,
but still I was sitting around, I was sitting just
past second base. Nice and I'm sure his ban is
pretty good too.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Oh yeah you think, yeah, just.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
A little bit.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Yeah, they were. They were unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Okay, now I think it's time for a commercial break,
and when we come back, we're gonna play a little
intellectual poetry. All right, alright, boys and girls, we're back
(21:17):
with intellectual poetry where Danny and I read lyrics from
a song you might know the song, you might not
know the song, or for a band you probably know.
The band that I picked is a band that Danny
definitely knows the band. And but this I think is
gonna be a tougher because it's more of a deeper cut.
But I picked this because it has really inappropriate lyrics,
(21:40):
So I figured out that's why I picked it. So
all right, people out there, play along with Danny, and
I'll censor myself. So this gets played on YouTube, even
though we're not monetized on YouTube because we don't pull
any numbers on YouTube, but we do, okay on some
of the other platforms. So here we go. All right,
(22:01):
I'll start this off. I got this pleasant view late
night working avenue. Oh nice rhyme. Never had a chance
to love you, never want to see you cry? Thank
god it's quitting time. F me harder kill the lights.
Never had a chance to love you now I never
(22:22):
want to see you cry. What do you think?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
I can't think it's be bon Jovi, he would never curse?
Is it crocus?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
It is not Crocus, but not a bad guess. Okay
this album the song from the album. The album came
out in two thousand and one, and it's this band's
second album. Okay, okay, all right, never want to see
you cry. Never had a chance to love you, hard cock,
nasty mind skipping in the chorus in my face on
(22:59):
top up again, A deadlay lover never wins, Never had
a chance to love you, Never want to see you cry.
What do you think, man?
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That line, never want to see you cry?
Speaker 1 (23:13):
You might have heard this song before, definitely haven't heard
on the radio. Though.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
There's a band's second album. There's a buck cherry.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
You're correct, yes, yeah, let's see. Here's the chorus. Take off,
take off your clothes and shut the door. Pornographic monster
on the floor that that's what you like, I'll come
some more. Don't want to make me f you for money,
I'm your big dick mother f and porno star.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Oh geez a, right.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
The thing about Buck Cherry is they do have some
songs that are definitely not gonna be played on the radio.
In fact, they're famous for putting out an EP called
I'll spell It f u c K was the name
of the EP, and every song on the album had
that word in the title, and every song, yeah, every song.
And then their biggest hit is crazy Bitch, and they
(24:14):
have to the one that's played. The version on the
radio is definitely censored because you can't say that.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
You have so good I'm on top of it when
I scream of doing you all night.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I'll tell you what. When I saw them open for
skid Row and they finished with that song, that crowd
sang that song super loud and they were totally into it.
Oh my yeah, God, that's an action packed band. You know,
they have a nice good thing going. The singers always
moving and dancing, and the band is really good. Yeah,
but the lyrics are definitely inappropriate for miners out there.
(24:49):
But buck.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Yeah, I might have. I'm definitely gonna have to go
see them that the more I think.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
About it, bring the wife forty eight bucks? Why not
bring the wife?
Speaker 2 (25:00):
No, now, I'll go by myself on that one.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, I think she she.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Had a friend that asked her to go to the
State Fair last night. It was the last night of
the State Fair to see the band. Because the daughter
of the friend that asked her is one of Live's
best friends, and she works at the State Fair and
she can get She's the ticket box manager, so she
got tickets for every show that was there, and so
(25:26):
she asked Aina to go. And last night was playing
Big and Rich.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Oh, I know Big and Rich because when I was
in Reno they were playing there. I figured she'd love
Big and Rich. Did she here?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Okay? She said. They spent about twenty five minutes just
talking about loving America and stand up and you got
to support the vets and all that, you know, Okay,
you know, two or three minutes, great, twenty five minutes
of that, she said, it was just way, way too much.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah, I know, the guy with the cowboy hat is
a fair uh outspoken conservative, but that's it's his thing. Yeah,
but when I go see anybody, whether you know, whether
it's Pearl Jam or Ted Nugent, I don't want to
hear anybody's political views. I don't care. I don't care
if yeah liberal spout in your stuff. I don't care
(26:17):
if you're concerned. When I go to a show, I
want escapism. I want to have fun. I don't want
to it's like going on Twitter or wherever as I
have Twitter wars. I don't want to. I want to
get away from that stuff. Give me the rock, That's
all I care about.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, just shut up and play the guitar. Jeez, you wait,
she was she was over it after about well after
like five minutes, she was over and they just kept on.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
And on and on.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
It's like, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I know they had lots
of hits. Just play your hits.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
If you want to knew two songs my daughter.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Kill a Horse, Ride a Cowboy or something like that,
or Ride a Cowboy.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Or stay of a horse, Ride a Cowboy.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Yah, my daughter plays that song. That's the only song
I know. Why.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Then there's that one, and then there's there's the one
that College Game Day uses as their theme.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
I don't even know the song. I didn't know that either.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Yeah, that's big and rich playing.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
So was there anybody that in there at that fair
that you'd go see?
Speaker 2 (27:17):
No? Not this year.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Okay, sometimes these fairs, I mean I think the last
band I saw it a fair with Stys and they
were great. I remember seeing Rick Springfield. He was great.
But I haven't been to a fair to see a show.
I mean we had the Ventura County Fair, which is
about an hour from me. Every once in a while
you'll get somebody decent and that's I'll go why not
and then go.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Yeah, Dana went to see She saw Rick Springfield with
the same lady last year and they had a VIP
meet and greet and so they go meet Rick Springfield
and he stands there with like his arms around him
taking a picture, and then when the picture was done
he pushed them off, like he pushed him, like go
get away, get away you, And that that Dayana was passed.
(28:02):
She's like, you know, okay, fine, you don't want to
be doing this great, but don't push me.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Yeah that's kind of week, that's kind of weak.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
Yes, So I saw Toby Keith at one of the
fair shows. A few years ago. He's dead.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Okay, I knew one of those. He died by guys, Okay.
I know he's super popular.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah he I enjoy him. I know he's like ultra conservative,
but I like him.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Yeah, it was. I always confuse him and Trace Atkins
his name. Super deep voice.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Yeah, Trace Atkins has really deep voice.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Yeah, Toby Keith has not as deep as Trace Akins.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
I'm not a big country guy, though my daughter likes it. Now.
I don't know what's wrong with her.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Man, that's that's weird to get.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Her some psychic or something like that.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Jeez, yeah, something anyway, all right, all right, so yeah,
here we go. So I know you know this band,
So here we go. Well, I woke up this morning
on the wrong side of the bed, and how I
got to thinking about all those things you said about
ordinary people and how they make you sick. And if
(29:11):
calling names kicks back on you, then I hope this
does the trick, because I'm sick of your complaining about
how many bills, and I'm sick of all your bitching
about poodles and your pills, and I just can't see
no humor about your way of life and I think
I can do more for you with this here forking knife.
(29:31):
Huh any ideas.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Weird? Al Yankovic, No.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
That is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Damn it. It does sound familiar. I give it that.
But I when I hit the when he said the forking,
I figured he always sings about food. Maybe it's weird, Al,
I don't know. Okay, Well, what's your hint?
Speaker 2 (29:52):
If I if I sang the melody, you would get
this song immediately, because I love that and the fork
and kN bet. But anyway, I'll skip the.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Chorus here, no hint for me.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Oh uh, Yeah, we've seen this band. We saw them together.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Okay, all right, okay, all right.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
So I called up my head shrinker and I told
him what i'd done. He said, you'd best go on
a diet. Yeah. I hope you have some fun, and
I don't go burst the bubble on rich folks who
get rude, because you won't get in no trouble when
you eat that kind of food. Now they're smoking up
their junk bonds and then they go get stiff and
they're dancing in their yacht club with Muff and Uncle Biff.
(30:35):
But there's one good thing that happens when you toss
your pearls to swine. Their attitude made taste like shit,
but you go real good with wine.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Wow, Why don't I know these lyrics? That's poetry.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
It's great.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I'm sure I love it, but I can't place who
it is. Yeah, you, this band is ginormous.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
This song was nineteen ninety three Metallica. Nope, no, no,
not wait, on the same par with Metallica? Probably?
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Okay, I think I have a guess, but go what's
my next clue?
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Next clue? This will give it away. But this band
recently retired.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
As American band, British bands, American band.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Okay, uh, And here's the Here is the bridge, and
the rest of it is all coorse. So here's the bridge.
Believe in all the good things that money just can't buy.
Then you won't get no belly ache from eating humble pie.
I believe in rags to riches. Your inheritance won't last.
So take your gravy, put your gray poop on, my friend,
(31:45):
and shoving up your ass.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Oh is it? I have two bands in my head?
Is it Aerosmith?
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Yes it is.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Eat the Ridges, Eat the rich, right yep? Okay, this
is all one thing. That they're good for Eat the
Rich take one Bite Now, because I was also thinking
what it was that song that Van Halen did on
their Up for Breakfast, one of those bonus tracks and
their greatest hits, because they were talking about food during that,
and I was thinking, but is it Oh yeah, but
(32:16):
then shove it up your ass? I think, Okay. I
can hear Steven Tyler singing saying that, okay, so oh yeah,
take your great poop, my friend, and shove it up
yours like rich What a great song. It could be
the last great Aerosmith on maybe.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
From ninety three.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, yeah, because their last couple of records weren't that good. No,
I think it was a pump and the other one
were good. And after that they did one album.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Yeah, I think I think this was undone with Mirrors.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
No, Eat the Riches Later it's it's it's early one
of the early nineties ones. No, it's later than Done
with Mirrors for sure, and it's after Permanent Vacation. It's
one of it's one of those two when his daughter
and Alicia Silverstone and all those videos. It's those two albums. Yeah,
I forgot the name of the damn album. But anyway, yeah,
(33:09):
it's that period.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Okay, I'm gonna check it out right now.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
He's gonna tell because Danny and I having brain farts,
even though I'm three years older now than Danny. Until September.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yeah, it was on Get a Grip.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
Get a Grip. I was either that or yeah. Okay,
good album.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
Yep, Oh yeah, that was a good one. Produced by
Bruce fair Brown.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Oh you know what I forgot to do? I had
a bonus bonus rapid fire question. I might as well
throw that out there. Okay. One of these two albums
have in common, Billy Joel's storm Front and Van Halen
fifty one? What do they have in common? And I
learned this yesterday.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
I'm gonna say the same producer.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Correct who was the producer.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
Said Ben Halen's fifty fifty. Yep, because I watch, I'm
gonna guess brute Fairbrown.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Nope, no, I'll give you another clue. Okay, it's a
it's a musician in a band that's going to the
hard rock I mean the Hall of Fame Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame. It's a guitar player. He he
just went in, he's about to go in. I don't
know Mick Jones from Foreigner. Really yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Didn't realize he produced that album from Van Halen.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Sure did, because yeah, yeah, but yeah, I mean odd,
those two particular albums are completely different, but yeah, yeah,
Mick Jones kind of jumped into that. He produced that
and did a couple others. Not a lot, but yeah.
I watched the y It's a Musician. I watched the
HBO has a Billy Joel two part documentary. I just
(34:49):
finished watching. It's two hours. There's two parts and each
one of them is two hours long, so it's four hours.
But it's interesting. It's really well done. Tom Hanks did it.
He threw a little political commentary in a little bit
that wasn't really necessary, but who did it? Tom Hanks did?
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Well, what's the thing.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
It's just Billy Joel's entire career. He talked about a
certain political incident where he just gave half side of
the story. But other than that three minutes, it's really
well done.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
I mean nice.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
And there's some stuff that I didn't know about him, Like, wow,
I didn't know that because I really liked Billy Joel
all the way up until Allentown. The Stranger to Allentown.
I really like Billy Joel, especially Glasshouses. Really liked that album.
But the stuff before it, it's okay, and the stuff
after it hit or miss. The guy played what fifty
(35:45):
nights at the Madison Square Garden, so he can't be
that bad.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah, it was like he played there every Friday night
or every Saturday night for like years.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
Yeah, ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
It wasn't like fifty nights. It was like just constant
and old him out. I don't know if he's still
doing that or what, but.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
I think he's got some medical issues. I think he's
kind of retired now. But yeah, jeez, but I came
from nothing, so it.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
Was a yeah, and he made a ton of money
and then lost it.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Yeah, and they and they go, they go through that. Yeah,
they talk about who did it and it was a
kind of a family member who did it to him?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
And didn't he fire his band because he thought it
was them?
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Yeah, because no, he it wasn't the band that did it, but.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
They thought it was, so that he fired them.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
And the Loaded Gun documentary Liberty the Veto goes over
what happened with the band. They go more detail what
happened there. They gloss over it and uh, this documentary
even though Liberty the Vito is in it and Billy
and him have made up since the other documentary.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
So but yeah, okay, well that's good, but.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
It's it's worth watching. I mean, my wife likes Billy
Joe a lot more than I do, so she was
into it way more. I was well done, so it's
worth watching. So with them, sit with the wife and
watch the documentary.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
You know, all right, it's on HBO on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
It's on HBO Max or HBO if you get okay,
and it used to be called Max and now it's
called HBO Max again. So I have it. It's it's
part of my prime thing. It's attached to it. I
know it's hard to keep track of things, but it's well,
it's well done, all right. I think we need to
take another commercial break and jump into who the hell
(37:30):
is this? Now? It's time to play who the hell
is this?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
All right? Welcome back to everybody. Time for some who
the hell is this?
Speaker 1 (37:49):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Where we play four to ten second songs or four
ten second clips of a song of a band that
we may or may not know could be a song
like a an outtake or hard to reach song or whatever.
But I think I think the one I got for you.
(38:12):
I don't think you're gonna know who this is, but
it's killer song, so go ahead and check it out.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
All right, here we go. Well that was crushing. Jesus.
I'm gonna say, somebody like a drone adrenaline mob.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Adrenaline Mob. No, that is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Whatever it was it, I'll.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
Give you a first the first clue. This is a
German Austrian four piece Oka though they've added a person
that I don't know why they did it, but they've
recently added another person, so it's a German German for
slash five piece.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
All right, that doesn't help me in the least, but okay,
here we.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Go two.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Ah Warkings.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
That is correct.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
Are you kidding me? No? That is correct. I was
a guest.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
Yeah. It's off their latest album, Armageddon, and the song
is called Circle of Witches. Kind of great, great song.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Man.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
I really like these guys.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
Yeah, they look goofy as hell if you've seen them live,
Oh yeah, but I kind of like it.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
I mean they're like they're dressed up like crusaders or something.
Speaker 1 (39:49):
One guy thinks dressed as a Roman. Another guy looks
like he's a skeleton dude, and yeah, they're they they're
dressed up and sometimes they have a girl in the band.
I think, I don't know, but.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Yeah, this girl is is a she's a full member
now apparently.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
Okay, she's a vocalist. Yeah. I think there's a lot
of us that, uh that festival in France, what's it
called hell something, hell Fest, hell Fest. I think their
performance from war Kings is on on YouTube because the
first saw like these guys are good, because some of
(40:25):
these bands are really goofy looking like brother Brotherhood of Metal.
You see these guys and somebody's they're dressed like they're
in the fourteen hundreds and like they're extras from uh
that Mel Gibson movie Brave Heart. They look like that.
What is going on? And you see that you see
guys look like they're coming on Viking ships and okay,
(40:46):
seems like could be a big thing in power metal
where you're you know, HARKing back to the past and
sing about you know, Alestorm is about pirates and all
this stuff. But Ailstorm is kind of a joke band too,
kind of funny though, But stuff like that, you see
a lot of that in Europe and those festivals, and
these bands don't get zero airplay here. So I heard work.
I'm like, there is some quality stuff. So yeah, I've
(41:09):
downloaded a couple of their albums. Haven't really listened to
the new one much, but yeah, good songs.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Absolutely check it out. This this new one's good. I
listened to it a couple of times last week. And
the song, the song Circle of which is kind of
grabbing cool.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
I also like when you see these and these festivals
where you see you see a but you know, sometimes
they're they're doing the mosh bit, but now they're doing
this thing where they're they'll get like ten rows of
people and they're pretending like they're rowing like one of
those big Viking ships. They're all doing it back and forth.
It's a big thing there, and they say, wow, this
kind of looks fun.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
I haven't seen that. Yeah, I've seen the ones where
they get lines of people and they separate out by
like fifty feet.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Yeah that's cool.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
And then something somebody says, go and they all just
collapse on each other. It's like, hold, hold.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
Hold go. Looks fun, but you know what I look
was painful. Yeah for us. Now, I mean I think
when we were twenties we totally do that. Now, I
was like, oh I break a hip doing that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (42:13):
I was at a what it's the Anthrax at a
little club in Philly and there was some band opening.
Oh it was the one that Kirk Hammett used to
be in Exodus. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:26):
They were playing and there was a mosh pit, right,
and the mashpi got bigger and bigger, and I end
up right on the edge and this girl comes around
and she gets pushed into me and I I completely
lost my breath. She hit me right in the solar plexus,
like right here.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
Oh, and I'm just like, oh oh my, I can't breath.
I had to I buckled over.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
I was like a holy crap.
Speaker 2 (42:53):
Yeah, I'm never getting into my mise.
Speaker 1 (42:54):
I don't think that's happened to me since playing football
in like the eighth grade. Getting stomach got stuck in
the stomaching. Yeah, we're feeling it about. Get the wind
knocked out of you. You can't breathe.
Speaker 2 (43:06):
It's horrible.
Speaker 1 (43:07):
Oh maybe the second worst. I think getting hit in
the balls is worse. But yeah, well there's that, and
then that one where he with a baseball or or
football and the nuts. Yeah, that's worse. But getting wind
knocked out he's a close second for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:23):
Wow. So some girly knocked the wind at you. Huh.
Speaker 2 (43:26):
Oh man, she because I wasn't I was watching the band.
I didn't see her come from the side.
Speaker 1 (43:31):
And just she she got me, but she didn't. It
wasn't like she was aiming for me. She got pushed
into me, and I was just like.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
Oh, confession, yeah exactly, and it was gonna beat up
by a girl. Oh well yeah yeah, oh well, but
you a good show. You made a great as always.
Speaker 1 (43:54):
Yeah. I have not seen answer. I haven't seen Anthrax
with I saw Anthrax with Neil Turbin. I have not
seen anton show, and I need to because I really
like Anthrax. So yeah, next time they come around, I
think I'm just gonna have to go, and I think
they're gonna.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
I've seen him. I've seen them a bunch of times.
I'm seeing them in little clubs, the headliner, I've seen
them opening, I've seen them in festivals. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
I think in twenty six, when Pantera winds down, they're
gonna be They're gonna be on tour again, so I'll
have to check them out. I'll be the sixty one
year old guy therecks yeah and rugs. You guys rule.
I don't want to be in the pit though, You're
gonna knock the wind out of me, so leave me alone.
Speaker 2 (44:34):
I need a seat. Where are the chairs? Where's the
chair sit down section?
Speaker 1 (44:39):
Damn it? Yeah, that's the only thing I worry about.
The going to see Buck Cherry, Michael Monroe in the
The Violent Act at the Whiskey is I'm gonna be
standing for all three bands.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
Like oh, and.
Speaker 1 (44:53):
If you guys out there don't know who The Violent
Act is, that's Charlie Bonanti. He wrote all the music
and his girlfriend Carla from The Butcher Babies is the
lead singer. And I guess it's an all female band
and okay, she's smoking hot.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
I'm telling you, ah nice.
Speaker 1 (45:10):
So I haven't really listened to the EP yet. So,
but they're the opening band, so I'm gonna have to
see all three bands and you probably have to wheel
out of that one.
Speaker 2 (45:19):
The opening band at the Kesswick is Drew Cagele and
the reputations.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
It's probably I never heard of them. Probably some liver Brand. Well,
at least at that place you can sit if the
band's terrible, but the other two absolutely probably standing. Okay,
all right now we have to go well to you.
Speaker 2 (45:40):
You have to do your you're or I have to
do the who the hell is this from you?
Speaker 1 (45:45):
All right? Mine is gonna be difficult. I can tell
you that right now. But uh, we'll play these four
clips and I'll give you hints. You might get it
off the cliff, be off the clues, but uh, you
never know. Sometimes you get these things and I'll never
in the million day just think you're gonna do it.
So go ahead and play clip one.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
Let's see. Oh, here we go. It sounds like old
school European blues rock. I'm is it? Maybe not European?
But is it thunder?
Speaker 1 (46:26):
It is not thunder? Okay. Your first clue is this
came out? This is an American band? This came out
in nineteen seventy eight. Nice clue. One American band nineteen
seventy eight.
Speaker 2 (46:39):
Okay, so it's not the other one. I was gonna
guess the boogie rock band.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
And they were never huge, but they were on a
major but they were never huge.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
What was that band? That had like the three guitar players.
They were boogie rock from the UK.
Speaker 1 (46:59):
Spider no.
Speaker 2 (47:03):
Status quo.
Speaker 1 (47:04):
Yeah it ain't damn but go ahead.
Speaker 2 (47:06):
That rules them out. Yeah, well okay, let's listen to
the second clip here. Yeah. Uh, is that like really
(47:28):
early skinnered?
Speaker 1 (47:29):
No? No, it's not skinnered? All right, your next clues.
These guys released I think a total of five or
six albums. The first three albums were on Mercury Records,
so they were on a ma. They were on a
major label, and they opened for a lot of people,
but they were never a headlining band.
Speaker 2 (47:48):
Never made it big.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
No, but I have seen I have seen them live.
Speaker 2 (48:03):
Oh I like that little part at the end there,
woo man, I have no is it God?
Speaker 1 (48:13):
Blackfoot is not Blackfoot? But not a bad guess? All right,
This is the hint that might give it away. The
band's name. They're named after an Irish American gangster in
Philadelphia in New York City during the Prohibition era. This
guy was a bootlegger and he survived a number of
(48:36):
attempts on his life from nineteen sixteen to nineteen thirty one,
causing him to be known as the Clay Pigeon. Of
the Underworld. It's a famous gangster is the name of
the band. So it's two words.
Speaker 2 (48:52):
Oh damn it. Well listen to this last one.
Speaker 3 (48:57):
Well I think okay, I'm just is it Leg's.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
Diamond correct.
Speaker 3 (49:16):
It?
Speaker 1 (49:16):
Whoa it is Legs.
Speaker 2 (49:17):
Diamond, Legs Diamonds. Yeah, I knew that was a gangster wow.
Speaker 1 (49:23):
In fact, they I saw them live in the eighties,
probably eighty four. Where was I think four of five
original members. They just played last week at the Whiskey.
There was a tribute show to the guitar player in
rough Cut. One of the guys, the guy who had
the was losing his hair, not a mirror, but the
other guy. They did a benefit show for his family.
(49:47):
He was also in the original Mickey Rat. His name
escapes me right now. But the opening band for that
was Legs Diamond and they still have three active original
members in that band. But really they never made made
it big. Yeah, they just didn't. They were one of
those bands when they made it big in San Antonio,
(50:08):
Texas because there was a pro that was when in
the seventies and eighties where there wasn't like one in
one company just programming every station in the country. You
went to each territory and a programmer was playing what
that person liked. And the guy in San Antonio liked
Trapeez Moxie, he liked Leg's Diamond. So those bands got
(50:32):
played along with all the other bands in the country
that made it big. But and but once you know
what happened later when they deregulated radio. Now everything's clear
channel or which clear channel turned into iHeartRadio. So one
guy in New York program is all the classic rock
channels in the whole country. That's why they all sound
(50:54):
the same now. But Leg's Diamond. I don't know that
I've ever heard Legs Diamond before. But yeah, that's a
cool song. Yeah, that's on their third album, Firepower, and
it's the opening track called Underwater King. It's a it's
a good song. They were, Yeah, they were pretty blues bassed,
blues rock, good singer. I think the reason that did
(51:16):
band didn't make it is one there but ugly sorry guys,
fact and they you know, they just didn't have enough
hooks in their songs. But they were quality band. They
weren't bad, they were good. But yeah, so I don't
know if you have any Legs Diamond, if you don't.
I think I got I think I have their whole catalog,
but you might have it. I don't know, but.
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Interesting very quickly.
Speaker 1 (51:40):
But I did make a Spotify playlist under the hard
rocking trivia show called Long Lost Rock nineteen seventy five
to nineteen eighty four. I think there's three hundred plus
songs on there, and Legs Diamond is featured in there.
So if you want to find stuff that was on
major labels for the most part or big somewhere else
(52:02):
but never made it in the States, and you're looking
for something new to listen to, check out that particular
Spotify playlist.
Speaker 2 (52:08):
Long Yeah, I don't have any Legs Diamond.
Speaker 1 (52:12):
All right, I will send some Legs Diamond your way.
And yes, all right, it's decent, it's not bad. But
have you signed up for that particular list yet, there,
sir on Spotify Long Lost.
Speaker 2 (52:23):
That particular one, no not if it's a new one, I've.
Speaker 1 (52:27):
What do you wait?
Speaker 2 (52:27):
When did you make it? Dan?
Speaker 1 (52:29):
I made it like two weeks ago?
Speaker 2 (52:31):
Oh okay, all right, Yeah, I've been a little busy.
I've been out of town trying to catch up on work. Yeah,
I have a job.
Speaker 1 (52:40):
Okay, I understand that you've got a family and the job,
so we can wait for you to sign up for
all twenty some playlists on Spotify. But uh, yeah, if
you want to, just I put it on sometimes when
I'm in the pool and I play it. You play
these songs, most of them, I don't, I know, the
Angel and the Star stuff. But past that, there's some
(53:01):
bands that you listen to. Who is that one of them?
I discovered the other Day's a band called Morning Star.
Never heard of them, but they had a major like
two major label albums in like the late seventies. It
was pretty good.
Speaker 2 (53:14):
I never what's the name of the of the list?
Speaker 1 (53:17):
Oh, Long Lost Rock nineteen seventy five to nineteen eighty four. Okay,
I think six people have signed up for it so far.
But yeah, you'll discover.
Speaker 2 (53:28):
Yeah, I'll check it out.
Speaker 1 (53:30):
Yeah, just play along with it and you go, I
like that one. And on Spotify, if you hear a
song you like, you just click the plus button. Then
it'll add it to the songs you like and you
can make your own playlist down the road. So what
I do, I'll listen to other people's playlists and go, oh,
that's pretty cool. And I'll just click on it. They
like it, and it gives you a whole list of
what you've liked in the past, so I mean, and
(53:53):
you send like three quarters of a sent to the
band if it gets a billion plays, and yeah, they
get a check for ten dollars. So that's the only
bad that's the bad thing about Spotify. They need to
pay a little bit better. But who knows, maybe in
the future they'll they'll fix that.
Speaker 2 (54:10):
Yeah anyway, yeah, right right, yeah, So all right, well,
good show.
Speaker 1 (54:15):
Good show to go and your are your Phillies playing tonight?
Is that why you gotta run to the TV or something? No?
Speaker 2 (54:21):
They lost to the Yankees this afternoon, damn it.
Speaker 1 (54:24):
I hate the Yankees.
Speaker 2 (54:25):
They won the series.
Speaker 1 (54:26):
So, oh, have you watched Happy Gilmore two? No?
Speaker 2 (54:31):
I have not.
Speaker 1 (54:31):
Have you seen Happy Gilmore one? No? Yeah, Well if
you like if you like Happy Gilmore, you'll like Happy
Gilmore too. It's just the same. It's silly, low brow humor.
And uh yeah, I enjoyed it. I didn't expect much
because after that Coming to America sequel that Eddie Murphy did,
that was a big letdown because I loved Coming to America,
(54:54):
but the sequel was terrible. This one kind of lives up.
Hoppy Gilmore two lives up to the first one. It's yeah.
Speaker 2 (55:02):
Is it streaming? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (55:03):
I started on Friday on Netflix, so yeah. And I
never knew that the girlfriend in Happy Gilmore was the
wife in Modern Family. I didn't know that that showed
Modern Family. I had no idea.
Speaker 2 (55:20):
Yeah, yeah, she's Yeah, I like her.
Speaker 1 (55:24):
I can see why. Yes, I mean, I don't know
she is.
Speaker 2 (55:31):
I don't know either, But to me, I'm keep it down.
Speaker 1 (55:35):
The wife's coming.
Speaker 2 (55:39):
Cool, be cool.
Speaker 1 (55:39):
Yeah, she asked you how I loved them. I loved him,
loved them. Did you read them all?
Speaker 2 (55:49):
I'm still going through for facts sake. I've read the others.
Speaker 1 (55:52):
Okay, I'm gonna guess you like the storm Large book.
That's the one she's really interested in. Oh well, I.
Speaker 2 (56:00):
Yeah, I like the Storm Large book a lot.
Speaker 1 (56:03):
Man.
Speaker 2 (56:03):
She had a terrible life. But and the uh, the
Killing Jesus book got me hooked on the other killing books.
I've read like three others since.
Speaker 1 (56:15):
Those those bill O'Reilly books. Yep, Killing Lincoln, Killing Jesus.
I don't, I don't, I don't get it.
Speaker 2 (56:22):
Are they good?
Speaker 1 (56:23):
I had no, this is not hard rocking.
Speaker 2 (56:26):
Okay, yeah they're good. Yeah, they're Yeah, we're recording, so
that's cool.
Speaker 1 (56:35):
Book reports by Sylvia.
Speaker 2 (56:38):
Now we the the other books that I've read, like
Killing the s s, Killing Jesus, Killing England? What was
the other one? There was one more that I've read
that they're They're really good because they talk about one
specific topic and they get fairly deep into it, but
not so deep that you're like, like the Hamilton book,
Oh my god, that dragged forever because it was so detailed.
(57:02):
Now he liked his ps on the left side of
his plate. Oh god, who cares? But these these killing
books are really good, and that they don't. They'd give
you the good information and they don't go so deep
that you get bored.
Speaker 1 (57:16):
Yeah, here's where Danny and I differ. Danny's an avid reader,
reads everything. I'm at the point where I am listening
to books on tape. My last book on tape I
listened to was Frankie Bellow from Anthrax's Audio book. And
here's Danny reading about history.
Speaker 2 (57:33):
So, oh, how how was that?
Speaker 1 (57:36):
It was really good because he talks about the murder
of his brother, so it goes way into that. Yeah,
so it's it's pretty depressing when he goes he gets
into that whole thing, he goes through his whole life.
It's worth listening to. I mean, I have a thirty
minute drive to work every day when I go to work,
so I listened to an audiobook lots of times.
Speaker 2 (57:55):
So yeah, I have a twelve second walk from my
veteran to my office.
Speaker 1 (58:00):
So yeah, nobody feels sorry for you.
Speaker 2 (58:03):
Sorry, not much time to get an audiobook in.
Speaker 1 (58:06):
Yeah, okay, well maybe in the future. Yeah, maybe if
you get fired and you have to work in New
Jersey somewhere.
Speaker 2 (58:13):
Yeah. Right, man, if I get fired, I'm done.
Speaker 1 (58:17):
You're done. I got one more year and I'm retired.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
Yeah, Dana's we're looking at two more years. Yeah, I'm
probably gonna do like five.
Speaker 1 (58:25):
You got five more left?
Speaker 2 (58:27):
Okay, maybe, I don't know, we'll see.
Speaker 1 (58:29):
Yeah. You don't want to be too old when you retire.
You want to be able to still have fun and travel.
You just want to sit in front of the TV
and wither away. You got to go out there, it's
my plan anyway. Yeah, I gotta take the wife to Europe.
I've been promising for for some years. So it's gonna happen,
take you to Europe. Well you can tag along, but
(58:51):
I'm not buying your plane ticket.
Speaker 2 (58:53):
No, I said, I got to take me to Europe.
Oh okay, Well maybe we'll make a plan.
Speaker 1 (58:57):
We'll go together, all right, you bring the wife, I'll
bring my wife, and that'll be a trip. I like
those vikings. Yeah, we'll hit some festivals and they can
go shopping for wooden shoes or whatever. You guys do. Books. Yeah, okay, yeah,
you guys can go to the bookstores. We'll go to
(59:18):
the fucking or the Sweden Rock or hell fest. We'll
go to all that stuff. Of course we'll be sitting
halfway through it. But yeah, oh wow, okay, yeah, we
we went over that already. But yeah, everybody's dying.
Speaker 2 (59:34):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that blows.
Speaker 1 (59:38):
Way to bring the show down, dear, It's okay.
Speaker 2 (59:41):
Well we we brought it. We started down, went up,
and then we ended back down.
Speaker 1 (59:45):
Yeah. I started talking, book talking. Everybody turned off the podcast.
Speaker 2 (59:50):
Click.
Speaker 1 (59:50):
Yeah, all right, all right, well I'm gonna go. You're
gonna go. We'll try to do better in two weeks.
Speaker 2 (59:55):
Okay, people, all right, alright, see you later, okay, bye bye,
On your Mark, get ready start.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Broadcasting from California and Delaware. This is the Hard Rocking
Trivia Show, and here're your host Mark and Danny.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Alright, boys and girls, it's time for the Hard Rocking
Trivia Show. July twenty seventy nine, nineteen twenty, nineteen twenty five.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah, you're only twenty six years off. That's it.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, today today is my birthday. I'm sixty one years old.
Holy smokes.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Now we know why the nineteen oh man.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yeah, I got some alert. I got a little alert
on my my emails from this website from concerts and says,
forty three years ago you saw Queen and Billy Squire.
I'm like, oh my god, was that forty three years ago? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Forty three good low.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Hot Space Tourjeez, Now I'm really feeling out. Yeah, we're
we're in the backside of life there, Dan. I mean,
my son goes.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Oh yeah, especially with all the people around our age
dying this week.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, geez, let's go through the list. We got Ozzie,
who made it two weeks after. Yeah. With Ozzie, they
weren't kidding that he pulled it together for that one.
Because I saw some of the rehearsals where he was
just sitting there and other people were singing for him
because Billy Idol was there and Billy Idol didn't perform
during the concert, but in rehearsals Billy Idol was singing
(01:54):
and Ozzie was sitting in the chair, but Ozzie wanted
to sing, so the man pulled it up off at
the last second. I mean, amazing, and it that was it,
I mean, And then after he got his sent off
and said, you know what, I've done it all and
where his family Yep, he went. He did it the
right way.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
So who else was it? Chuck MANGIONI the was that was?
He played a horn? Was that horn?
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:22):
One hit?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Wonder I can't stand he was considered smooth jazz? Was he?
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Yeah? I didn't really, I didn't realize.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
And he had two he had two hits. The there
was one Sunrise I think was one, and then the
main song.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
He had I know what it's called.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yeah, it always reminds me of the Welcome by Cotter
or something.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
I guess turned two hits into a monster career, So
I mean, good for him. Yeah, it wasn't a fan
but Michael Malcolm Jamal Warner from The Cosby Show, who
was younger than we are.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, jeez, I mean.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
That Cosby showed was a monster that was st was
so popular, but you can't find it anymore because they
won't show it because of what Bill Cosby turned into.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Way to Go, Bill, Way to ruin your legacy.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Yeah, and all those people could have made money off
of that show and they get nothing because nobody can
see that thing anywhere. But right, Yeah, Connie Francis and
Hulk Hogan. Hulk Hogan was a big one older than that.
I think he was seventy one. But yeah, I guess
you just had a heart attack in the middle of
the night and went quick. I was like, wow, seventy
(03:32):
one a little too young there. Usually make it to
your eighties, but early seventies is rough. Yeah, that's that's
by the time we put this out tomorrow, somebody else
is gonna go. Who knows who's on the list.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It may be coming over the wire right now, Yeah,
somebody major.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah. So it seems the older we get more people
than we knew. I guess because there's more celebrities now.
The longer you go, and as every every week it's somebody. Wow. Yeah,
I have no idea. I'm sorry, I'm bumming everybody out here. Jeez.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Well yeah, Keith Richards is still alive. How's that happen?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
He's gonna outlive all of us.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yep, it's gonna be cockroaches and Keith Richards when the
plant goes. Wow. Yeah, I'm bummed.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
So you know, well, let's get to some questions.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Let's play some rapid fire.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
So rapid fire where we fire off three questions to
each other and try to try to trick each other,
I guess, or stump each other whatever. But I think
I got some good ones. I don't know if you'll
get any of these, so yeah, I think I didn't
make them too too difficult, but we'll see.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Which means I'm a choke on all three.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
And I think, well, you are a year older.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Yeah, I think you're gonna get one of my three.
So yeah, I am. I'm much older now.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, all right, Question number one for you? Who owns
the first oh in the Hollywood Sign?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
I believe that it's Alice Cooper, that is correct.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yes, he bought it for his good buddy, all that
actor with the Little Hitler mustache.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Ga Marx, not buster Ke, Yeah, Grocho Marx.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yeah, apparently he and Gratchro Marx were were good buddies.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
I knew they were buddies.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
They bought it for him.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, the Hitler mustache would be Charlie Chaplin.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, no, I think I think it's Gratchro Marx. But yeah, anyway,
this whole sign was falling apart, and he said he
asked city council how much how much to buy one
of the letters, and they said twenty seven thou He said, okay,
I'll buy the Oh the first.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Didn't other people buy the audience too?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah? Yeah, I think they've all been bought. But I
don't know who has the other actors and film people.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Okay, well, good question. Yeah so I don't know why
here you go, but I did. All right, Question number
one for you, name three bands that Michael Monroe has fronted.
Oh jeez, that's not one of them.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Besides, like the Michael Monroe band or that doesn't get
so actual bands that he's fronted.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
One of them is really obvious.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
All right. I can only think of Hanoi Rocks.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
All right, that's one.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Yeah, I can't think of any others that he.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Fronted okay, yeah, because they were both only one album
each and okay in nineteen. In nineteen ninety two he
fronted a band called Jerusalem Slim where it was a
supergroup with him and Steve Stevens and the album he
was in that Yeah, he was runner that band and
it was not good. They had their all these aless
(07:04):
guys in the album sucks. And then two years later
he had a band called demolitionh in twenty three which
was half punk covers and half originals, which is really good.
So Demolition twenty three is a must. Jerusalem Slim don't
even bother. You're wasting your money because it's only on mbare.
(07:25):
So those are the three.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Yeah, I'm I'm hoping to go see them with Oh
Buck Cherry, Yeah yeah, Oh they're playing. They're playing outside
of Philly in uh I think October, but yeah, they're
doing a whole year. I've never seen Michael Monroe or
Buck Cherry.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I saw Buck Cherry open for skid Row and they
were great. Never seen Michael Monroe. So yeah, they're playing
two Knights of the Whiskey. So I'm gonna have to
get tickets this week for sure, they're a little pricey
here because you got you basically had two headliners. So
I think there's seventy bucks here, but that's what I
paid when I saw and Kk's Priest together in a
(08:03):
small club. It was seventy bucks, but it was totally
worth it. You got two headlining sets. And I think
except except As touring with I think Queen's Reich on
a US tour, so you may want to check. I
know they're playing a couple of Pennsylvania dates, but I
don't know if they're near you, because Pennsylvania is a
big state, so it could could be close.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah. Yeah, the place where Buck Cherry is playing, that's
it's in Pennsylvania, outside of Philly, but it's only about
an hour from me. That's where you and I saw Mammoth.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That the Mighty Keswick Theater. But I don't think the Yeah,
I don't think except in Queen's Rock is playing there.
They're playing other cities, but only you'd know that they
were close to you or not. They might even be
playing New Jersey too, so I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I'll check it out, and Jersey could be closed or
it could be two and a half hours, so right,
we'll see, but I'm planning on going to see that
Michael Monroe and Buck Cherry. That should be a cool show.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Yeah, none of those bands are standing around looking at
their shoes for sure. Those are action action pack bands.
Fun stuff, you know, get you going.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
And the most expensive seats, I mean you can get
the like the VP seats, but the regular seats are
like most expensive is seventy one I think, and the
the most of the theater is like forty eight.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, we're totally worth it. The good it's a good
place to see a band.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
So yeah, it's a nice theater. Yeah all right, So
question number two for you, who are the only permanent
members of the Eagles of Death Metal?
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Oh my god, yeah, it's abandoned. I'm not a fan
of it all. I know the lead singer, I don't
even know his name. He's a white dude with a mustache.
Does that help you?
Speaker 2 (09:44):
It's only one narrows it down.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Do I know his name? I do not know his name.
His name is I don't know Steve Smith.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
No, that is incorrect. This singer's name is Jesse Hughes. Okay,
and the guy playing drums in this band is Josh Holm.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Okay, yeah, the guy probably no, Yeah, from Queens of
the Stone Age.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Yeah, yeah, I'm not he's the main dude in Queens
of the stone Age. But yet those are the two
guys and Eagles of death Metal and they're kind of
a I won't say, a joke band, but they're not
like a serious kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah, and not really metal either. I mean they're hard rock.
But oh no, you think they're not at all? Yeah? No, yeah,
some people love them, just not into them.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yeah, it was interesting that they were the not them particularly,
but their show was the target of that shooting in
Paris a couple of years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
That was weird. Was it because it was them or
they were just happened to be there.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I think they happened to be the band playing. I
don't know that they were particularly targeted because they weren't.
It was mostly fans that were shot, well, I mean
or concert goers. So weird.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
All right, Question two, which is the hardest of the
three questions I'm going to give to you today. Jeez,
people on podcast land, good luck with this one. Okay.
There's a drummer named Stacy Jones and he was in
a band called BMX Girl well, that name sucks. So
Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones actually suggested a better
(11:23):
name for the band, and they ended up going with
that and changing the name of the band. Can you
tell me what BMX girl turned into? And I'll give
you a hint. It's a power pop band.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Power pop band.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, and I think you, I know that you have
some of their stuff in your library for sure.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
It's not the Bowling Bones.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Is it the Bowling Bones? No, yes, Keith Richards, that's
bad you No, that was bad. But no, it's a
band that it's a band that you you've heard of.
And I'll give you a hint. Butcher s Walker does
have a hand or has had a hand in this
band's career. Uh. And the guy's name is Stacy Stacy Jones.
(12:09):
Don't even try to go look it up, sir, No,
we even though we don't do.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Oh no, I'm not you would hear me.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
And we know that Dane is not in the room
helping you with the answer, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with Hot, Hot Heat.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
That was pretty good, all right, but wrong. Sorry. I'm
going to see the Marvelous Three in September. And this
band is opening for them and Bitch butch Walker has
produced an album by them, but it's not Hot Hot Heat,
it is American High Fi. Oh man, So they're opening.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
That's gonna be such a great show.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
And I don't think I sold out yet. They're playing
two nights in a small club, like this is gonna
be awesome.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Not sold out in LA.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I don't think so yet. Well, because man, they they
could sell out a week in Atlanta.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Yeah crazy, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I guess the Chicago and and uh Atlanta sell out
right away, but I don't think they've sold that yet
in LA. And I think they're also playing I.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Wish they'd play in play in Philly.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I think they're playing in New York, So if you
wanted to go see them, I think you need to
drive to New York. So I think that's the other place.
They're only playing four cities this time. They started out
with two, then three, now they're going to four, so
I think, okay, you may have to road trip that
one there. So American High five BMX girl at one point.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, that is a terrible name. Yeah, American I five
is not that much better for the name, really, No.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
But I gotta I gotta whatever. I gotta start listening
to their album so I'm familiar with their songs. It's
been a long time since I listened to them.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Well, Marvel's three will be great, Oh man, of course
they better be. All right. So question number three for you. You're
one out of you're one out of two. So let's
see if you can bat over five hundred. Okay, how
many number one singles did the Steve Miller band have.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
I'm gonna say one.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Oh no, it was three. I think it was Abercadabra.
That's the one I figured, Rocking Me and the Joker
those were number one singles. Yep.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Wow, I did not in the US. I didn't know that.
I knew they had some big hits. Abercadabra was their
last one. I hate that song. It's awful. Oh yeah,
but the stuff in the seventies great.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I want to reach that and grab you. Oh yeah,
I probably killed this horrible that. There was another song
it was a big hit, but it was it only
made it to number two. I can't remember off the
top of my head where it was.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
There was the Jedi.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Yeah they had three.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Yeah, they had two huge albums. Yeah. Boring on stage though,
but in fact, they just canceled their US tour. They
said they said they gave a reason, but the real
reason was low ticket sales. But because they're not that exciting.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I'm sure they got well yeah they I mean they
they did that tour with def Leppard, Steve sure, Yeah,
they were, Uh when def Leppard did that stadium tour
just this past like spring, that's longer.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Yeah, they did do. They were like the opening band
for like part of those Yeah, I forgot about that.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Yeah, it was def Leppard and somebody else and either
Steve Miller or Cheap Trick or Heart Okay were your
three like opening bands, And of course Philly gets Steve Miller,
like you gotta be kidding what.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah, I'm going to see part on August twelfth. Never
seen them before in beautiful Bakersfield, California. Baker's Field, Yeah,
Bakersfield's when those towns you just blow right through. But
the tickets were pretty I'm I think I paid thirty
bucks a piece, so well with it. It's about an
hour and fifteen minute drive from where I live, so
(15:57):
I'm gonna me and the wife are going to go
make a little road trip on a Tuesday night, go
see Heart. Why not never seen him?
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I figured Sylvia would be going with you.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, hopefully they don't stink. So let's hope for.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
The Yeah that I don't know. What I've seen recently
is not good.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
But I've seen Anne in a wheelchair with gray hair.
And yes, some of the songs she pulls off, but
some of the other ones there are some of those
are tough songs to sing, and she yeah, she wasn't
quite hitting all the notes. And I am a big fan,
so I hope hopefully she can still sing and pull
it off.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
So yeah, well, we'll expect a review. Actually, all these
shows we need reviews on, so I will do my best, sir.
All right, So you got one out of three.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Yeah, all right, and you are currently o for two,
but you might get this one. This is the probably
the easiest question on you.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
All right.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
All right, We've already talked about Ozzy a little bit,
so this is an Ozzy Osbourne solo question. Okay, of
his first four solo albums, which one charted the highest
in the US. Is it Blizzard of Oz, Diary of
mad Man, Bark at the Moon or The Ultimate Sin?
Which one got to the highest number in the US.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
I'm gonna say the Ultimate Sin.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You'd be correct, yes, which.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Yeah, that had some big hits on it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
H that got the number six. Bark at the Moon
was nineteen, Diary mad Man was sixteen, and Blizzard of
Oz was twenty one. But I think out of all
those albums, I'm gonna guess Blizzard of Oz sold the most,
but the Ultimate Sin got the highest chart position. So
you went one for three, I went one through three.
That's two for six. So it's a decent batting average,
(17:42):
but not the.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Greatest in the world. It's okay, not do great. Not
do great for this show.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
That would be one. No, that's not bad. Three thirty three.
That's a good batting average for baseball.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Oh man, you'd be you'd be all star level there.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah, so I go, okay, So so we're all star
level this week. We're doing good?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
All right?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Nice? Not like that guy doing the flip from the
uh Savannah Bananas on TV. Did you see that?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Oh, you know this is a guy in Savannah Bananas
does a flip. So I guess he was on like
one of the morning shows and he did it, and
he didn't do so great. And he face planted his
his uh oh, his flip like ooh oh fuck he
got it off like he shook it off like nothing happened.
But oh that was embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Got anyway, speaking of Savannah Bananas, they were in Philly today.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Probably sold the place out, didn't.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
They They did completely sold out, unbelievable. You know, the
Phillies say they're sold out, but there's plenty of empty.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Seats because the season the season ticket holders probably go
to half the games and then they try to sell
the other half, and that they it's such happy team
they're playing, nobody wants to really go.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Yeah, you could. You could go to any game you want, really, Yeah,
I mean there's some some you know, if you go
to tickpck, there's plenty of seats all over the place.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yeah. I try to do tickpck like the night before
the game or the day of the game, and sometimes
you can get lucky. I was looking at Paul McCartney's
playing in Palm Springs in August. I'm thinking, Wow, maybe
I should go check it out. Cheapest seat for Paul
McCartney last row six hundred dollars. I mean, the venue's
not huge, the venue probably holds on. I guess eight thousand.
(19:26):
But I'm not sitting in the back row for six
hundred bucks apiece. Forget that. I think I would. I
think i'd pull the trigger. Decent seats for three hundred.
I think that's the most ever played for a show.
But I can't see spending six hundred a piece for show.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
I saw him once, I went by myself. It was
a birthday present from my mom for my fiftieth birthday,
and it was about tenth row right in the middle.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Oo.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I don't know how much she paid for it, but
it was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Oh, I'm sure it was. And I'm sure spend a
lot of money on.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
You, the freaking beetle.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
But yeah, yeah, I'm gonna keep checking. If it's not
of the show, and I think two hundred dollars, I
might pull the trigger. In two hundred dollars, just honey,
We're gonna take a two and a half hour drive
to Palm Springs and go see Paul McCartney. Okay, Colin
said I would tomorrow. I would do it.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
I would do that. I would for a couple hundred Yeah,
I'd do that.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
And it's not a stadium, it's a medium sized indoor arena.
It's like, yeah, I saw him in the Phillies Stadium,
but still I was sitting around, I was sitting just
past second base. Nice and I'm sure his ban is
pretty good too.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Oh yeah you think, yeah, just.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
A little bit.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Yeah, they were. They were unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Okay, now I think it's time for a commercial break,
and when we come back, we're gonna play a little
intellectual poetry. All right, alright, boys and girls, we're back
(21:17):
with intellectual poetry where Danny and I read lyrics from
a song you might know the song, you might not
know the song, or for a band you probably know.
The band that I picked is a band that Danny
definitely knows the band. And but this I think is
gonna be a tougher because it's more of a deeper cut.
But I picked this because it has really inappropriate lyrics,
(21:40):
So I figured out that's why I picked it. So
all right, people out there, play along with Danny, and
I'll censor myself. So this gets played on YouTube, even
though we're not monetized on YouTube because we don't pull
any numbers on YouTube, but we do, okay on some
of the other platforms. So here we go. All right,
(22:01):
I'll start this off. I got this pleasant view late
night working avenue. Oh nice rhyme. Never had a chance
to love you, never want to see you cry? Thank
god it's quitting time. F me harder kill the lights.
Never had a chance to love you now I never
(22:22):
want to see you cry. What do you think?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
I can't think it's be bon Jovi, he would never curse?
Is it crocus?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
It is not Crocus, but not a bad guess. Okay
this album the song from the album. The album came
out in two thousand and one, and it's this band's
second album. Okay, okay, all right, never want to see
you cry. Never had a chance to love you, hard cock,
nasty mind skipping in the chorus in my face on
(22:59):
top up again, A deadlay lover never wins, Never had
a chance to love you, Never want to see you cry.
What do you think, man?
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That line, never want to see you cry?
Speaker 1 (23:13):
You might have heard this song before, definitely haven't heard
on the radio. Though.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
There's a band's second album. There's a buck cherry.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
You're correct, yes, yeah, let's see. Here's the chorus. Take off,
take off your clothes and shut the door. Pornographic monster
on the floor that that's what you like, I'll come
some more. Don't want to make me f you for money,
I'm your big dick mother f and porno star.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Oh geez a, right.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
The thing about Buck Cherry is they do have some
songs that are definitely not gonna be played on the radio.
In fact, they're famous for putting out an EP called
I'll spell It f u c K was the name
of the EP, and every song on the album had
that word in the title, and every song, yeah, every song.
And then their biggest hit is crazy Bitch, and they
(24:14):
have to the one that's played. The version on the
radio is definitely censored because you can't say that.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
You have so good I'm on top of it when
I scream of doing you all night.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I'll tell you what. When I saw them open for
skid Row and they finished with that song, that crowd
sang that song super loud and they were totally into it.
Oh my yeah, God, that's an action packed band. You know,
they have a nice good thing going. The singers always
moving and dancing, and the band is really good. Yeah,
but the lyrics are definitely inappropriate for miners out there.
(24:49):
But buck.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Yeah, I might have. I'm definitely gonna have to go
see them that the more I think.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
About it, bring the wife forty eight bucks? Why not
bring the wife?
Speaker 2 (25:00):
No, now, I'll go by myself on that one.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, I think she she.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Had a friend that asked her to go to the
State Fair last night. It was the last night of
the State Fair to see the band. Because the daughter
of the friend that asked her is one of Live's
best friends, and she works at the State Fair and
she can get She's the ticket box manager, so she
got tickets for every show that was there, and so
(25:26):
she asked Aina to go. And last night was playing
Big and Rich.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Oh, I know Big and Rich because when I was
in Reno they were playing there. I figured she'd love
Big and Rich. Did she here?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Okay? She said. They spent about twenty five minutes just
talking about loving America and stand up and you got
to support the vets and all that, you know, Okay,
you know, two or three minutes, great, twenty five minutes
of that, she said, it was just way, way too much.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah, I know, the guy with the cowboy hat is
a fair uh outspoken conservative, but that's it's his thing. Yeah,
but when I go see anybody, whether you know, whether
it's Pearl Jam or Ted Nugent, I don't want to
hear anybody's political views. I don't care. I don't care
if yeah liberal spout in your stuff. I don't care
(26:17):
if you're concerned. When I go to a show, I
want escapism. I want to have fun. I don't want
to it's like going on Twitter or wherever as I
have Twitter wars. I don't want to. I want to
get away from that stuff. Give me the rock, That's
all I care about.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, just shut up and play the guitar. Jeez, you wait,
she was she was over it after about well after
like five minutes, she was over and they just kept on.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
And on and on.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
It's like, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I know they had lots
of hits. Just play your hits.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
If you want to knew two songs my daughter.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Kill a Horse, Ride a Cowboy or something like that,
or Ride a Cowboy.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Or stay of a horse, Ride a Cowboy.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Yah, my daughter plays that song. That's the only song
I know. Why.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Then there's that one, and then there's there's the one
that College Game Day uses as their theme.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
I don't even know the song. I didn't know that either.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Yeah, that's big and rich playing.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
So was there anybody that in there at that fair
that you'd go see?
Speaker 2 (27:17):
No? Not this year.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Okay, sometimes these fairs, I mean I think the last
band I saw it a fair with Stys and they
were great. I remember seeing Rick Springfield. He was great.
But I haven't been to a fair to see a show.
I mean we had the Ventura County Fair, which is
about an hour from me. Every once in a while
you'll get somebody decent and that's I'll go why not
and then go.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Yeah, Dana went to see She saw Rick Springfield with
the same lady last year and they had a VIP
meet and greet and so they go meet Rick Springfield
and he stands there with like his arms around him
taking a picture, and then when the picture was done
he pushed them off, like he pushed him, like go
get away, get away you, And that that Dayana was passed.
(28:02):
She's like, you know, okay, fine, you don't want to
be doing this great, but don't push me.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Yeah that's kind of week, that's kind of weak.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
Yes, So I saw Toby Keith at one of the
fair shows. A few years ago. He's dead.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Okay, I knew one of those. He died by guys, Okay.
I know he's super popular.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah he I enjoy him. I know he's like ultra conservative,
but I like him.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Yeah, it was. I always confuse him and Trace Atkins
his name. Super deep voice.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Yeah, Trace Atkins has really deep voice.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Yeah, Toby Keith has not as deep as Trace Akins.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
I'm not a big country guy, though my daughter likes it. Now.
I don't know what's wrong with her.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Man, that's that's weird to get.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Her some psychic or something like that.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Jeez, yeah, something anyway, all right, all right, so yeah,
here we go. So I know you know this band,
So here we go. Well, I woke up this morning
on the wrong side of the bed, and how I
got to thinking about all those things you said about
ordinary people and how they make you sick. And if
(29:11):
calling names kicks back on you, then I hope this
does the trick, because I'm sick of your complaining about
how many bills, and I'm sick of all your bitching
about poodles and your pills, and I just can't see
no humor about your way of life and I think
I can do more for you with this here forking knife.
(29:31):
Huh any ideas.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Weird? Al Yankovic, No.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
That is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Damn it. It does sound familiar. I give it that.
But I when I hit the when he said the forking,
I figured he always sings about food. Maybe it's weird, Al,
I don't know. Okay, Well, what's your hint?
Speaker 2 (29:52):
If I if I sang the melody, you would get
this song immediately, because I love that and the fork
and kN bet. But anyway, I'll skip the.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Chorus here, no hint for me.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Oh uh, Yeah, we've seen this band. We saw them together.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Okay, all right, okay, all right.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
So I called up my head shrinker and I told
him what i'd done. He said, you'd best go on
a diet. Yeah. I hope you have some fun, and
I don't go burst the bubble on rich folks who
get rude, because you won't get in no trouble when
you eat that kind of food. Now they're smoking up
their junk bonds and then they go get stiff and
they're dancing in their yacht club with Muff and Uncle Biff.
(30:35):
But there's one good thing that happens when you toss
your pearls to swine. Their attitude made taste like shit,
but you go real good with wine.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Wow, Why don't I know these lyrics? That's poetry.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
It's great.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I'm sure I love it, but I can't place who
it is. Yeah, you, this band is ginormous.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
This song was nineteen ninety three Metallica. Nope, no, no,
not wait, on the same par with Metallica? Probably?
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Okay, I think I have a guess, but go what's
my next clue?
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Next clue? This will give it away. But this band
recently retired.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
As American band, British bands, American band.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Okay, uh, And here's the Here is the bridge, and
the rest of it is all coorse. So here's the bridge.
Believe in all the good things that money just can't buy.
Then you won't get no belly ache from eating humble pie.
I believe in rags to riches. Your inheritance won't last.
So take your gravy, put your gray poop on, my friend,
(31:45):
and shoving up your ass.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Oh is it? I have two bands in my head?
Is it Aerosmith?
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Yes it is.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Eat the Ridges, Eat the rich, right yep? Okay, this
is all one thing. That they're good for Eat the
Rich take one Bite Now, because I was also thinking
what it was that song that Van Halen did on
their Up for Breakfast, one of those bonus tracks and
their greatest hits, because they were talking about food during that,
and I was thinking, but is it Oh yeah, but
(32:16):
then shove it up your ass? I think, Okay. I
can hear Steven Tyler singing saying that, okay, so oh yeah,
take your great poop, my friend, and shove it up
yours like rich What a great song. It could be
the last great Aerosmith on maybe.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
From ninety three.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, yeah, because their last couple of records weren't that good. No,
I think it was a pump and the other one
were good. And after that they did one album.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Yeah, I think I think this was undone with Mirrors.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
No, Eat the Riches Later it's it's it's early one
of the early nineties ones. No, it's later than Done
with Mirrors for sure, and it's after Permanent Vacation. It's
one of it's one of those two when his daughter
and Alicia Silverstone and all those videos. It's those two albums. Yeah,
I forgot the name of the damn album. But anyway, yeah,
(33:09):
it's that period.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Okay, I'm gonna check it out right now.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
He's gonna tell because Danny and I having brain farts,
even though I'm three years older now than Danny. Until September.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yeah, it was on Get a Grip.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
Get a Grip. I was either that or yeah. Okay,
good album.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
Yep, Oh yeah, that was a good one. Produced by
Bruce fair Brown.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Oh you know what I forgot to do? I had
a bonus bonus rapid fire question. I might as well
throw that out there. Okay. One of these two albums
have in common, Billy Joel's storm Front and Van Halen
fifty one? What do they have in common? And I
learned this yesterday.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
I'm gonna say the same producer.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Correct who was the producer.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
Said Ben Halen's fifty fifty. Yep, because I watch, I'm
gonna guess brute Fairbrown.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Nope, no, I'll give you another clue. Okay, it's a
it's a musician in a band that's going to the
hard rock I mean the Hall of Fame Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame. It's a guitar player. He he
just went in, he's about to go in. I don't
know Mick Jones from Foreigner. Really yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Didn't realize he produced that album from Van Halen.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Sure did, because yeah, yeah, but yeah, I mean odd,
those two particular albums are completely different, but yeah, yeah,
Mick Jones kind of jumped into that. He produced that
and did a couple others. Not a lot, but yeah.
I watched the y It's a Musician. I watched the
HBO has a Billy Joel two part documentary. I just
(34:49):
finished watching. It's two hours. There's two parts and each
one of them is two hours long, so it's four hours.
But it's interesting. It's really well done. Tom Hanks did it.
He threw a little political commentary in a little bit
that wasn't really necessary, but who did it? Tom Hanks did?
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Well, what's the thing.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
It's just Billy Joel's entire career. He talked about a
certain political incident where he just gave half side of
the story. But other than that three minutes, it's really
well done.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
I mean nice.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
And there's some stuff that I didn't know about him, Like, wow,
I didn't know that because I really liked Billy Joel
all the way up until Allentown. The Stranger to Allentown.
I really like Billy Joel, especially Glasshouses. Really liked that album.
But the stuff before it, it's okay, and the stuff
after it hit or miss. The guy played what fifty
(35:45):
nights at the Madison Square Garden, so he can't be
that bad.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah, it was like he played there every Friday night
or every Saturday night for like years.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
Yeah, ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
It wasn't like fifty nights. It was like just constant
and old him out. I don't know if he's still
doing that or what, but.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
I think he's got some medical issues. I think he's
kind of retired now. But yeah, jeez, but I came
from nothing, so it.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
Was a yeah, and he made a ton of money
and then lost it.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Yeah, and they and they go, they go through that. Yeah,
they talk about who did it and it was a
kind of a family member who did it to him?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
And didn't he fire his band because he thought it
was them?
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Yeah, because no, he it wasn't the band that did it, but.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
They thought it was, so that he fired them.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
And the Loaded Gun documentary Liberty the Veto goes over
what happened with the band. They go more detail what
happened there. They gloss over it and uh, this documentary
even though Liberty the Vito is in it and Billy
and him have made up since the other documentary.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
So but yeah, okay, well that's good, but.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
It's it's worth watching. I mean, my wife likes Billy
Joe a lot more than I do, so she was
into it way more. I was well done, so it's
worth watching. So with them, sit with the wife and
watch the documentary.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
You know, all right, it's on HBO on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
It's on HBO Max or HBO if you get okay,
and it used to be called Max and now it's
called HBO Max again. So I have it. It's it's
part of my prime thing. It's attached to it. I
know it's hard to keep track of things, but it's well,
it's well done, all right. I think we need to
take another commercial break and jump into who the hell
(37:30):
is this? Now? It's time to play who the hell
is this?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
All right? Welcome back to everybody. Time for some who
the hell is this?
Speaker 1 (37:49):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Where we play four to ten second songs or four
ten second clips of a song of a band that
we may or may not know could be a song
like a an outtake or hard to reach song or whatever.
But I think I think the one I got for you.
(38:12):
I don't think you're gonna know who this is, but
it's killer song, so go ahead and check it out.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
All right, here we go. Well that was crushing. Jesus.
I'm gonna say, somebody like a drone adrenaline mob.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Adrenaline Mob. No, that is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Whatever it was it, I'll.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
Give you a first the first clue. This is a
German Austrian four piece Oka though they've added a person
that I don't know why they did it, but they've
recently added another person, so it's a German German for
slash five piece.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
All right, that doesn't help me in the least, but okay,
here we.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Go two.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Ah Warkings.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
That is correct.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
Are you kidding me? No? That is correct. I was
a guest.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
Yeah. It's off their latest album, Armageddon, and the song
is called Circle of Witches. Kind of great, great song.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Man.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
I really like these guys.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
Yeah, they look goofy as hell if you've seen them live,
Oh yeah, but I kind of like it.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
I mean they're like they're dressed up like crusaders or something.
Speaker 1 (39:49):
One guy thinks dressed as a Roman. Another guy looks
like he's a skeleton dude, and yeah, they're they they're
dressed up and sometimes they have a girl in the band.
I think, I don't know, but.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Yeah, this girl is is a she's a full member
now apparently.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
Okay, she's a vocalist. Yeah. I think there's a lot
of us that, uh that festival in France, what's it
called hell something, hell Fest, hell Fest. I think their
performance from war Kings is on on YouTube because the
first saw like these guys are good, because some of
(40:25):
these bands are really goofy looking like brother Brotherhood of Metal.
You see these guys and somebody's they're dressed like they're
in the fourteen hundreds and like they're extras from uh
that Mel Gibson movie Brave Heart. They look like that.
What is going on? And you see that you see
guys look like they're coming on Viking ships and okay,
(40:46):
seems like could be a big thing in power metal
where you're you know, HARKing back to the past and
sing about you know, Alestorm is about pirates and all
this stuff. But Ailstorm is kind of a joke band too,
kind of funny though, But stuff like that, you see
a lot of that in Europe and those festivals, and
these bands don't get zero airplay here. So I heard work.
I'm like, there is some quality stuff. So yeah, I've
(41:09):
downloaded a couple of their albums. Haven't really listened to
the new one much, but yeah, good songs.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Absolutely check it out. This this new one's good. I
listened to it a couple of times last week. And
the song, the song Circle of which is kind of
grabbing cool.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
I also like when you see these and these festivals
where you see you see a but you know, sometimes
they're they're doing the mosh bit, but now they're doing
this thing where they're they'll get like ten rows of
people and they're pretending like they're rowing like one of
those big Viking ships. They're all doing it back and forth.
It's a big thing there, and they say, wow, this
kind of looks fun.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
I haven't seen that. Yeah, I've seen the ones where
they get lines of people and they separate out by
like fifty feet.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Yeah that's cool.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
And then something somebody says, go and they all just
collapse on each other. It's like, hold, hold.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
Hold go. Looks fun, but you know what I look
was painful. Yeah for us. Now, I mean I think
when we were twenties we totally do that. Now, I
was like, oh I break a hip doing that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (42:13):
I was at a what it's the Anthrax at a
little club in Philly and there was some band opening.
Oh it was the one that Kirk Hammett used to
be in Exodus. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:26):
They were playing and there was a mosh pit, right,
and the mashpi got bigger and bigger, and I end
up right on the edge and this girl comes around
and she gets pushed into me and I I completely
lost my breath. She hit me right in the solar plexus,
like right here.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
Oh, and I'm just like, oh oh my, I can't breath.
I had to I buckled over.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
I was like a holy crap.
Speaker 2 (42:53):
Yeah, I'm never getting into my mise.
Speaker 1 (42:54):
I don't think that's happened to me since playing football
in like the eighth grade. Getting stomach got stuck in
the stomaching. Yeah, we're feeling it about. Get the wind
knocked out of you. You can't breathe.
Speaker 2 (43:06):
It's horrible.
Speaker 1 (43:07):
Oh maybe the second worst. I think getting hit in
the balls is worse. But yeah, well there's that, and
then that one where he with a baseball or or
football and the nuts. Yeah, that's worse. But getting wind
knocked out he's a close second for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:23):
Wow. So some girly knocked the wind at you. Huh.
Speaker 2 (43:26):
Oh man, she because I wasn't I was watching the band.
I didn't see her come from the side.
Speaker 1 (43:31):
And just she she got me, but she didn't. It
wasn't like she was aiming for me. She got pushed
into me, and I was just like.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
Oh, confession, yeah exactly, and it was gonna beat up
by a girl. Oh well yeah yeah, oh well, but
you a good show. You made a great as always.
Speaker 1 (43:54):
Yeah. I have not seen answer. I haven't seen Anthrax
with I saw Anthrax with Neil Turbin. I have not
seen anton show, and I need to because I really
like Anthrax. So yeah, next time they come around, I
think I'm just gonna have to go, and I think
they're gonna.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
I've seen him. I've seen them a bunch of times.
I'm seeing them in little clubs, the headliner, I've seen
them opening, I've seen them in festivals. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
I think in twenty six, when Pantera winds down, they're
gonna be They're gonna be on tour again, so I'll
have to check them out. I'll be the sixty one
year old guy therecks yeah and rugs. You guys rule.
I don't want to be in the pit though, You're
gonna knock the wind out of me, so leave me alone.
Speaker 2 (44:34):
I need a seat. Where are the chairs? Where's the
chair sit down section?
Speaker 1 (44:39):
Damn it? Yeah, that's the only thing I worry about.
The going to see Buck Cherry, Michael Monroe in the
The Violent Act at the Whiskey is I'm gonna be
standing for all three bands.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
Like oh, and.
Speaker 1 (44:53):
If you guys out there don't know who The Violent
Act is, that's Charlie Bonanti. He wrote all the music
and his girlfriend Carla from The Butcher Babies is the
lead singer. And I guess it's an all female band
and okay, she's smoking hot.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
I'm telling you, ah nice.
Speaker 1 (45:10):
So I haven't really listened to the EP yet. So,
but they're the opening band, so I'm gonna have to
see all three bands and you probably have to wheel
out of that one.
Speaker 2 (45:19):
The opening band at the Kesswick is Drew Cagele and
the reputations.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
It's probably I never heard of them. Probably some liver Brand. Well,
at least at that place you can sit if the
band's terrible, but the other two absolutely probably standing. Okay,
all right now we have to go well to you.
Speaker 2 (45:40):
You have to do your you're or I have to
do the who the hell is this from you?
Speaker 1 (45:45):
All right? Mine is gonna be difficult. I can tell
you that right now. But uh, we'll play these four
clips and I'll give you hints. You might get it
off the cliff, be off the clues, but uh, you
never know. Sometimes you get these things and I'll never
in the million day just think you're gonna do it.
So go ahead and play clip one.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
Let's see. Oh, here we go. It sounds like old
school European blues rock. I'm is it? Maybe not European?
But is it thunder?
Speaker 1 (46:26):
It is not thunder? Okay. Your first clue is this
came out? This is an American band? This came out
in nineteen seventy eight. Nice clue. One American band nineteen
seventy eight.
Speaker 2 (46:39):
Okay, so it's not the other one. I was gonna
guess the boogie rock band.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
And they were never huge, but they were on a
major but they were never huge.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
What was that band? That had like the three guitar players.
They were boogie rock from the UK.
Speaker 1 (46:59):
Spider no.
Speaker 2 (47:03):
Status quo.
Speaker 1 (47:04):
Yeah it ain't damn but go ahead.
Speaker 2 (47:06):
That rules them out. Yeah, well okay, let's listen to
the second clip here. Yeah. Uh, is that like really
(47:28):
early skinnered?
Speaker 1 (47:29):
No? No, it's not skinnered? All right, your next clues.
These guys released I think a total of five or
six albums. The first three albums were on Mercury Records,
so they were on a ma. They were on a
major label, and they opened for a lot of people,
but they were never a headlining band.
Speaker 2 (47:48):
Never made it big.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
No, but I have seen I have seen them live.
Speaker 2 (48:03):
Oh I like that little part at the end there,
woo man, I have no is it God?
Speaker 1 (48:13):
Blackfoot is not Blackfoot? But not a bad guess? All right,
This is the hint that might give it away. The
band's name. They're named after an Irish American gangster in
Philadelphia in New York City during the Prohibition era. This
guy was a bootlegger and he survived a number of
(48:36):
attempts on his life from nineteen sixteen to nineteen thirty one,
causing him to be known as the Clay Pigeon. Of
the Underworld. It's a famous gangster is the name of
the band. So it's two words.
Speaker 2 (48:52):
Oh damn it. Well listen to this last one.
Speaker 3 (48:57):
Well I think okay, I'm just is it Leg's.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
Diamond correct.
Speaker 3 (49:16):
It?
Speaker 1 (49:16):
Whoa it is Legs.
Speaker 2 (49:17):
Diamond, Legs Diamonds. Yeah, I knew that was a gangster wow.
Speaker 1 (49:23):
In fact, they I saw them live in the eighties,
probably eighty four. Where was I think four of five
original members. They just played last week at the Whiskey.
There was a tribute show to the guitar player in
rough Cut. One of the guys, the guy who had
the was losing his hair, not a mirror, but the
other guy. They did a benefit show for his family.
(49:47):
He was also in the original Mickey Rat. His name
escapes me right now. But the opening band for that
was Legs Diamond and they still have three active original
members in that band. But really they never made made
it big. Yeah, they just didn't. They were one of
those bands when they made it big in San Antonio,
(50:08):
Texas because there was a pro that was when in
the seventies and eighties where there wasn't like one in
one company just programming every station in the country. You
went to each territory and a programmer was playing what
that person liked. And the guy in San Antonio liked
Trapeez Moxie, he liked Leg's Diamond. So those bands got
(50:32):
played along with all the other bands in the country
that made it big. But and but once you know
what happened later when they deregulated radio. Now everything's clear
channel or which clear channel turned into iHeartRadio. So one
guy in New York program is all the classic rock
channels in the whole country. That's why they all sound
(50:54):
the same now. But Leg's Diamond. I don't know that
I've ever heard Legs Diamond before. But yeah, that's a
cool song. Yeah, that's on their third album, Firepower, and
it's the opening track called Underwater King. It's a it's
a good song. They were, Yeah, they were pretty blues bassed,
blues rock, good singer. I think the reason that did
(51:16):
band didn't make it is one there but ugly sorry guys,
fact and they you know, they just didn't have enough
hooks in their songs. But they were quality band. They
weren't bad, they were good. But yeah, so I don't
know if you have any Legs Diamond, if you don't.
I think I got I think I have their whole catalog,
but you might have it. I don't know, but.
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Interesting very quickly.
Speaker 1 (51:40):
But I did make a Spotify playlist under the hard
rocking trivia show called Long Lost Rock nineteen seventy five
to nineteen eighty four. I think there's three hundred plus
songs on there, and Legs Diamond is featured in there.
So if you want to find stuff that was on
major labels for the most part or big somewhere else
(52:02):
but never made it in the States, and you're looking
for something new to listen to, check out that particular
Spotify playlist.
Speaker 2 (52:08):
Long Yeah, I don't have any Legs Diamond.
Speaker 1 (52:12):
All right, I will send some Legs Diamond your way.
And yes, all right, it's decent, it's not bad. But
have you signed up for that particular list yet, there,
sir on Spotify Long Lost.
Speaker 2 (52:23):
That particular one, no not if it's a new one, I've.
Speaker 1 (52:27):
What do you wait?
Speaker 2 (52:27):
When did you make it? Dan?
Speaker 1 (52:29):
I made it like two weeks ago?
Speaker 2 (52:31):
Oh okay, all right, Yeah, I've been a little busy.
I've been out of town trying to catch up on work. Yeah,
I have a job.
Speaker 1 (52:40):
Okay, I understand that you've got a family and the job,
so we can wait for you to sign up for
all twenty some playlists on Spotify. But uh, yeah, if
you want to, just I put it on sometimes when
I'm in the pool and I play it. You play
these songs, most of them, I don't, I know, the
Angel and the Star stuff. But past that, there's some
(53:01):
bands that you listen to. Who is that one of them?
I discovered the other Day's a band called Morning Star.
Never heard of them, but they had a major like
two major label albums in like the late seventies. It
was pretty good.
Speaker 2 (53:14):
I never what's the name of the of the list?
Speaker 1 (53:17):
Oh, Long Lost Rock nineteen seventy five to nineteen eighty four. Okay,
I think six people have signed up for it so far.
But yeah, you'll discover.
Speaker 2 (53:28):
Yeah, I'll check it out.
Speaker 1 (53:30):
Yeah, just play along with it and you go, I
like that one. And on Spotify, if you hear a
song you like, you just click the plus button. Then
it'll add it to the songs you like and you
can make your own playlist down the road. So what
I do, I'll listen to other people's playlists and go, oh,
that's pretty cool. And I'll just click on it. They
like it, and it gives you a whole list of
what you've liked in the past, so I mean, and
(53:53):
you send like three quarters of a sent to the
band if it gets a billion plays, and yeah, they
get a check for ten dollars. So that's the only
bad that's the bad thing about Spotify. They need to
pay a little bit better. But who knows, maybe in
the future they'll they'll fix that.
Speaker 2 (54:10):
Yeah anyway, yeah, right right, yeah, So all right, well,
good show.
Speaker 1 (54:15):
Good show to go and your are your Phillies playing tonight?
Is that why you gotta run to the TV or something? No?
Speaker 2 (54:21):
They lost to the Yankees this afternoon, damn it.
Speaker 1 (54:24):
I hate the Yankees.
Speaker 2 (54:25):
They won the series.
Speaker 1 (54:26):
So, oh, have you watched Happy Gilmore two? No?
Speaker 2 (54:31):
I have not.
Speaker 1 (54:31):
Have you seen Happy Gilmore one? No? Yeah, Well if
you like if you like Happy Gilmore, you'll like Happy
Gilmore too. It's just the same. It's silly, low brow humor.
And uh yeah, I enjoyed it. I didn't expect much
because after that Coming to America sequel that Eddie Murphy did,
that was a big letdown because I loved Coming to America,
(54:54):
but the sequel was terrible. This one kind of lives up.
Hoppy Gilmore two lives up to the first one. It's yeah.
Speaker 2 (55:02):
Is it streaming? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (55:03):
I started on Friday on Netflix, so yeah. And I
never knew that the girlfriend in Happy Gilmore was the
wife in Modern Family. I didn't know that that showed
Modern Family. I had no idea.
Speaker 2 (55:20):
Yeah, yeah, she's Yeah, I like her.
Speaker 1 (55:24):
I can see why. Yes, I mean, I don't know
she is.
Speaker 2 (55:31):
I don't know either, But to me, I'm keep it down.
Speaker 1 (55:35):
The wife's coming.
Speaker 2 (55:39):
Cool, be cool.
Speaker 1 (55:39):
Yeah, she asked you how I loved them. I loved him,
loved them. Did you read them all?
Speaker 2 (55:49):
I'm still going through for facts sake. I've read the others.
Speaker 1 (55:52):
Okay, I'm gonna guess you like the storm Large book.
That's the one she's really interested in. Oh well, I.
Speaker 2 (56:00):
Yeah, I like the Storm Large book a lot.
Speaker 1 (56:03):
Man.
Speaker 2 (56:03):
She had a terrible life. But and the uh, the
Killing Jesus book got me hooked on the other killing books.
I've read like three others since.
Speaker 1 (56:15):
Those those bill O'Reilly books. Yep, Killing Lincoln, Killing Jesus.
I don't, I don't, I don't get it.
Speaker 2 (56:22):
Are they good?
Speaker 1 (56:23):
I had no, this is not hard rocking.
Speaker 2 (56:26):
Okay, yeah they're good. Yeah, they're Yeah, we're recording, so
that's cool.
Speaker 1 (56:35):
Book reports by Sylvia.
Speaker 2 (56:38):
Now we the the other books that I've read, like
Killing the s s, Killing Jesus, Killing England? What was
the other one? There was one more that I've read
that they're They're really good because they talk about one
specific topic and they get fairly deep into it, but
not so deep that you're like, like the Hamilton book,
Oh my god, that dragged forever because it was so detailed.
(57:02):
Now he liked his ps on the left side of
his plate. Oh god, who cares? But these these killing
books are really good, and that they don't. They'd give
you the good information and they don't go so deep
that you get bored.
Speaker 1 (57:16):
Yeah, here's where Danny and I differ. Danny's an avid reader,
reads everything. I'm at the point where I am listening
to books on tape. My last book on tape I
listened to was Frankie Bellow from Anthrax's Audio book. And
here's Danny reading about history.
Speaker 2 (57:33):
So, oh, how how was that?
Speaker 1 (57:36):
It was really good because he talks about the murder
of his brother, so it goes way into that. Yeah,
so it's it's pretty depressing when he goes he gets
into that whole thing, he goes through his whole life.
It's worth listening to. I mean, I have a thirty
minute drive to work every day when I go to work,
so I listened to an audiobook lots of times.
Speaker 2 (57:55):
So yeah, I have a twelve second walk from my
veteran to my office.
Speaker 1 (58:00):
So yeah, nobody feels sorry for you.
Speaker 2 (58:03):
Sorry, not much time to get an audiobook in.
Speaker 1 (58:06):
Yeah, okay, well maybe in the future. Yeah, maybe if
you get fired and you have to work in New
Jersey somewhere.
Speaker 2 (58:13):
Yeah. Right, man, if I get fired, I'm done.
Speaker 1 (58:17):
You're done. I got one more year and I'm retired.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
Yeah, Dana's we're looking at two more years. Yeah, I'm
probably gonna do like five.
Speaker 1 (58:25):
You got five more left?
Speaker 2 (58:27):
Okay, maybe, I don't know, we'll see.
Speaker 1 (58:29):
Yeah. You don't want to be too old when you retire.
You want to be able to still have fun and travel.
You just want to sit in front of the TV
and wither away. You got to go out there, it's
my plan anyway. Yeah, I gotta take the wife to Europe.
I've been promising for for some years. So it's gonna happen,
take you to Europe. Well you can tag along, but
(58:51):
I'm not buying your plane ticket.
Speaker 2 (58:53):
No, I said, I got to take me to Europe.
Oh okay, Well maybe we'll make a plan.
Speaker 1 (58:57):
We'll go together, all right, you bring the wife, I'll
bring my wife, and that'll be a trip. I like
those vikings. Yeah, we'll hit some festivals and they can
go shopping for wooden shoes or whatever. You guys do. Books. Yeah, okay, yeah,
you guys can go to the bookstores. We'll go to
(59:18):
the fucking or the Sweden Rock or hell fest. We'll
go to all that stuff. Of course we'll be sitting
halfway through it. But yeah, oh wow, okay, yeah, we

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
