Speaker 1 (00:00):
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 3 (00:37):
All Right, boys and girls, Welcome to the Hard Rocking
Trivia Show, Episode to ninety something We never remember but.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Five.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
If you're listening anywhere in the world, seems like we
got people from all over the world listening, and we
appreciate you guys taking the time out of your data
listen to a couple of old guys from the States.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
So a couple of you, Yeah, a couple of old rockers.
That's us.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
We should probably change the name of the show to
Old Rockers Incorporated.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
So I wanted to kind of why that's right. I wanted.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I wanted to start off with there's been a lot
of new albums coming out lately, and two of them
are really I've done multiple spins on these two, and
I don't know if you've listened to them yet, because
they I really liked them. The first one would be
the new Treat album. Just said that to me, and
(01:37):
I just forgot the name of the damn album. But
I think, oh, it's the wild Card. It's really strong.
It's like fourteen songs and every chorus is memorable. It's
like could be their best album in years. I mean,
this is a band that's been around since eighty seven,
but they never really had a US deal, so nobody
(01:58):
in the States really.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Knew who they were.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Their Franks now they're Swedish. They went away in the
nineties and came back in the two thousands, and everything
they've done since they've come back. I think they came
back in two thousand and six and the super good.
So I listened to the newer albums and went back
to the old album. It's a pretty strong band. Surprised
(02:22):
that nobody ever picked them up in the States, So yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
I really like them.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I haven't listened to the new album yet because I
think I just got it from you yesterday, or you'll
like it.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
I'm sure classic treat, classic melodic rock with guitars.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
It's really good, so he can't go wrong there. Sure.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
The other one that really got my attention I was
kind of surprised about. I mean, it's a band I
liked in the past. Is the band that we saw
when at the Roxy of all places. It's heavy petting
and the new album is called rock generation. I think
they only have one or two classic members. Songs are
really strong. Again, really good album. I think listen to
(03:05):
about four or five times. So I highly recommend Heavy
Petting and Treat those two new albums nice.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Well, definitely. I did listen to the Heavy Pettent one
through and I did like it.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I haven't I haven't listened to Treating at all yet,
so I'm gonna have to check that out tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Now.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Is there anything that you've been listening to that that's
new that's got your attention?
Speaker 4 (03:27):
I really like the new Mammoth album.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
It's It's the Prize.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Yeah, well.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
It's good.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
It is really good, and it you know, it might
be his best album yet.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
I think he's just it is so good and he's
the fact that he plays every instrument on it just
blows me away.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
But he's he.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Can and it's funny he considers hisself a drummer even
though he can play every Van Haleen song on guitar.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
You know, he just kind of whips out the beginning
of Unchained or.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
You know, like really yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
I saw some interview with him where he was just
playing around on the guitar and it was like it
was effortless.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
It was ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, he's crazy talented.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
But they were just in Baltimore a few weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I wasn't able to go see him, but I've seen
him three times already, and the guy's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
They he gets keeps getting better and better and better
and better. So yeah, yeah, three good albums right there,
So people go out there and buy them, for sure.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Listen to him. They're good.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
They have the two thumbs way up from us. I
guess four thumbs way up from us.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Absolutely, And if you want to if you want to
go the older school thing, still go. If you list
got Spotify, go check out the Hard Rocking Trivia Show
on Spotify. We do have playlists. I was listening to
hard rocking seventies today and just good stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I was running. I was running in the pool.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
That's what I do because I can't run on land anymore.
So I run in the pool get the heart rate up.
And I was jamming to some bto and nice fog
Hat and all.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
That good stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
So I'm wearing my marvelous three shirt that I got
in Atlanta to a month or so ago, and so
I was I went down to see my granddaughters, and
on the way there and back, I.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Was listening to some Marvelous Three.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Love those guys, yeah, even they're the latest Marvelous Three album,
which I like a lot, but I don't know it
by heart like I know the other ones.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Yeah, great band, Love them, love them, love them, love
them again. Four thumbs up for those guys.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
All right, on today's show, we're gonna do a couple
of bits. We're gonna do a six and thirty, then
we're gonna do who the hell is this? And then
we're gonna end the show with a couple of concert
reviews that I went to. So right, sit back, get
the popcorn out, and we're gonna start right now.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
For it is a human number. It's number is six.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
All right, boys and girls, it's time for six and thirty,
where we take six songs and give you five second
clips of those songs all the way up to thirty seconds,
and you have to get your pen and paper out
there and see who the artist is. And each time
we do this there is a theme to it. My
theme this episode is all of these bands are from Sweden,
(06:42):
and none of them really made it here in the
States and anywhere else.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
They pretty much they're more.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Known in Europe, but they're all bands that Danny would
know or artists that Danny would know. And if you're
a hardcore like the most of the people listening to
this show, you'll probably get these. But I didn't make
it especially easy for Danny, because Danny tortures me on
this one, and he regularly he wins on a regular basis,
(07:10):
So maybe I got a shot this week.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
So well, let's see, I'm pretty bait. It's been a
long week already, it's only Monday evening. So let's see
what we got.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Here, all right, Danny.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Some of that stuff was probably really familiar to you,
and some of it.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
It's like, okay, what was that?
Speaker 4 (07:57):
I think I'm pretty sure I have two. I don't.
The others gonna be total guesses.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah, but I think you can get two of those
guesses on just the vocalist alone.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Let's see. Let's listen one more.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Time, alright, Danny.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
All artists from Sweden that never really made a huge
mark in the States. But I can tell you a
couple of these bands when they have those European festivals,
they're really high up and they're playing.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
When it's dark, so they're they're fine.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Their font is bigger and it's not that font like
these those those extreme death metal bands. You can't even
read who.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
The heck it is.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
It looks like Bob Wire or Bushes. I'm like, how
do you know who the band is? None of those bands.
But these are bands that you've heard of, and some
of them I think you're a fan of some of
these bands.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
So all right, well the first one, I'm not really sure.
I really don't know the first one.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Take a wild guess.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Uh shoot, Swedish metal band.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Definitely a power metal band too.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, I'm just gonna guess Pink Cream sixty nine.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Ah, now that'd be incorrect.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
This band was from Fallum, Sweden, and I think they're
having their first headlining tour of the States. They came
over last time and they opened for Halloween. This band
is one of those bands that plays the European scene
and they're high up on those festivals. The name of
the band is Sabotan, Sabatan Sabatan. Yeah, they got their
(10:08):
real power metal, real macho macho power metal.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I'm not a I'm not a huge fan, but they
got a huge following, but they're they're headlining the States,
probably smaller venues, but they're trying.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah, I saw the other band you were talking about, Halloween.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
They're playing in not too far from me. I might
actually go see them.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Yeah, I definitely want to go see them because I've
never seen them, and their new album is really good,
and it's the Pumpkins United version with all three lead
vocalists from their entire career, eight guys on them. They
are all three are in the band because the first
album was the guitar player, the redheaded guy, he sang
lead vocals. Then they brought in Mike Kiskey, who at
(10:57):
the time had long blonde hair. Now he's bald. And
then the guy who replaced him was Andy Daris from
Pink Cream sixty nine. All three guys are in the
band now.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
So yeah, I might have to go see that just
to say I've seen Halloween. Because I really like our
first couple of albums, I haven't. I kind of fell
off my radar for a while.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
I'm telling you listen to the Pumpkins United. Their new
album I think is self titled. Okay, if you like
Iron Maiden, you gotta like Halloween.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Yeah. Yeah, they reminded me a lot of Iron Maiden
back then.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
All right, so number two, what do you think number two?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
I don't know for sure.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I don't even know if these guys are Swedish, but
they it really sounds for me.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
I'm gonna say it's hardcore superstar.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
You would be correct, sir.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yes, they're from Gothenburg, Sweden. He's been around since nineteen
ninety seven.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Really, yeah, So it's one of those bands.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
They're one of the bands kind of put on and
listen to nice.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
And they do play the States occasionally, but most of
the time when they do play, it's like at the
on the on the Monsters or Rock crewis and stuff
like that. But they'd never do a full tour. I've
never Maybe they play around but sporadic. I think they're trying.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
But terrible name.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
But they play everywhere else in the world. So maybe
one of these days we'll get to see them. So
you got that one correct? Number three?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
What do you think I'm gonna guess again?
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I think that's Pink Cream sixty nine.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You'd be incorrect. Pink Cream sixty nine is German. That's shit.
I thought I knew they were in European Number three.
We just talked about this band five minutes ago.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
That is new music from treat Man and that is
their new singles called Endeavor. I thought you'd get that one.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
That just that's just like Ooz's melodic rock, which.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Is right, you're gonna love it for sure. Number four or.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
I'm gonna guess that's Warkings.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Ah, that's close. But this band is much bigger than Warkings.
The name of that band is Hammerfall.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
They're bigger than Warkings, a lot bigger.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Hammerfall headlines these these these events, they're either like second
Banana or their top They're huge and they've been around.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Since nineteen ninety three. Wow, I would say. And in the.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Power metals genre, Halloween would be probably the big dogs,
and I'd say hammer Falls right a close second. They're
that they're that big. But here actually I think Hammerfall
would be. They might have voted for Halloween too. I
don't think they've headlined anything. If they did, it would
be smaller places, right. Number five, you gotta.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Get that number five. I think I Crash Diet correct Man,
such a good song.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
We're all Idiots. I love that song. I don't know
what number singer. That is, they've had five or six
already or.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Something like that. But yeah, still quality music.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
And then the last one, I don't think that's a
band at all. I think it's there grond Wall.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You'd be correct. Yes, I didn't think he'd heard that before.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
I had not, but I can tell by the voice.
The guy is unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Yeah, he's got two solo albums out that have all
covers on him, wide range of stuff. I picked it
because it's a Van Halen song and yeah, man that
that guy can sing.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
Oh, no doubt.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
So you got three got hardcore Superstar, Crash Diet and
Eric Runwaal so three. So maybe I didn't make it
hard enough.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Oh no, that was very difficult. I was really sure.
I'm hardcore superstar. The other two I'm pretty pretty well
got all right now, the one for you, I kind
of threw in a couple of softballs at the end
that if you don't get I'm going to be very disappointed.
But the other four, this is gonna be a little difficult,
I think, but who knows.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
You may get him right off the bat. But I've
had an issue in my house again with water.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Fucking water I hate. I wish there was some way
you could do what you had to do without water
in the house. But you know, my kitchen sink backed up,
and you know I couldn't get it out with the
snake I had, so called had.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
To call a plumberge and a bigger snake.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
So somebody stuffed something in the sink that didn't go
all the way down.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Well no, it was like it looked like it was
probably rice or potatoes or like potato skins.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
And he said you shouldn't put anything down, even with
a disposal.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
But yeah, we try not to.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, I just everything should go the trash.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
So we'll blame Dana. Dana, way to go, Dina.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
No it was me, Okay, no doubt it was me.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
But so much? How much? How much did it cost you?
Speaker 4 (16:18):
Yeah, like I had that in my spare wallet before
Christmas time.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Yeah, they're great. It's always it's always something.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
So anyway, I've had water on the mind for a
few days now. So these songs all have water in
the title.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Okay, all right, that's that's creative.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Okay, everybody out there, if you're in your truck, do
not get a piece of paper out and write just
do it in your head.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Everybody else, if you're at home, get a piece of paper.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Out and write out the name of the artist. Here
we go have water in the title.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
I can't even think.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
I can only off the top of my head right now,
just because I can only think of one song with
water in the title.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
So black Water, keep On, Keep On.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Okay too, wasn't the one I was thinking of. I
was thinking of Holy Water by Bad Company. All right,
here we go, play along at home.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
Kiddies, Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Wow, I have no idea on.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
This, you know, you know all these bands, there's nobody
that pulled out, like had one independent album from from Norway.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
The only one I got right away was the last one.
Everything else was like, huh.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
That's a softball. The one before that's a good one too, but.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I don't know about that. All right, here we go again.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Bigger Fan is that's the number five song band?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I don't know if you were a Bigger Fan as
I was, so I don't.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
I need to get two of these, and they're all
gonna be guesses. The first one is I was blanked
on Here we Go again. I think I'm gonna lose
(19:04):
this Dan, I just need three to tie. I wrote
six guesses down, but five of my six are definitely guesses.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
Okay, well let's hear their first guess.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
All right? Ah, I know this one's wrong. I wrote helloween.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
No, that is incorrect.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
This man, I was pretty intune the first few albums,
especially their album Black Hearts and Jaded Spates.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Oh god, now I know who it is.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
It's Tokyo Blade, that is correct. You know what really
sucks because I there's a best of Tokyo Blade down
that just came out and I'm gonna send it to
you tonight or tomorrow. Nice, So it should have been
on the brain. And you always love like them a
lot more than I did. I never thought they were bad,
(19:57):
but I just never got into them, I guess because
I was in the their thousand other bands, but.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
They were never bad. They were never bad, and I
was never disappointed. But I don't know why. It just
never stuck with me. So that's a that's wrong.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
That's wrong.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Okay. Number two My guess is love hate A.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
No, that's not too far because.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
It's Jizy Pearl, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
It is? The album Time was ten oh and we
I don't think we did. But I saw this band
in this incarnation with Pearl singing?
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Was it La Guns? No, Jesus Pearl singing with rat
la Guns? He's currently quite Is this quite right?
Speaker 4 (20:51):
It is? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
I got the voice, I just got the band.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
So I'll give you half a point for that.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Oh generous?
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (21:02):
All right?
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Number three is gonna Number three is gonna be wrong too.
But I wrote Helix no, not even close.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Huh No.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
This guy killer first maybe second album, then he decided
to go country, then he came back, came back to us.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Is the ron keel that is? Yep?
Speaker 3 (21:28):
I should have got it on the voice, damn. He's
got a very distinct distinct voice.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
He does, But it was this song wasn't so obvious
his voice, you know, like the first album. You can
tell every song sounds like it's him.
Speaker 5 (21:42):
All right.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
The number four one, I think is the hardest.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
My guess is I know this is wrong, but I
wrote down dangerous Toys.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Ah No, not mad guess though? That was Airborne. Yeah, Airborn.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
I'm familiar with Airborne, and I do have all their albums,
but I just don't listen to them.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Yeah, they're if they're kind of a ac DC thing.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Yeah, when ac DC finally goes away, maybe Airborne will
take their spot.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
They're very popular in Europe and they they're energetic, and
I should like them more than I just I get
there's too many bands that sound like them. I just
listen to the bands that sound like them.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Well, you know, I consider myself an ac DC fan.
But you know, it's just okay, they have another album out,
Is it going to be any different? Nope, Nope, it's not.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
I mean, when's the last time you got excited about
an ac DC album, which is I really knocked your
socks off?
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
And I don't from what I've seen of the no
videos of the concerts live stuff lately. Nh.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Yeah, it's it's time to go, I think for them.
I mean, they're they're playing the stadiums.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
But yeah, it's hard to say time to go when
you're filling six he's seventy thousand people.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
I mean, Brian is an older guy. I mean he's
still singing it, but is as gray as it was. No,
but it's not terrible. And Angus looks really old. He's
still he's got the energy. But yeah, yeah, okay, number
five total five total guests, hailstorm.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Ah no, it is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
And the other my other guest was Sorayah.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
No, you didn't get that. You didn't get by the
vocalist him. No, no, that was Tony Hartnell.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I thought it was a female. Oops. Oops. And I'm
a fan. I like Tohn. He's a great singer. Oh yeah, yeah, okay.
Oh it must be the West World then that is it?
Speaker 4 (23:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Yeah, you again, that's I love T and D. If
it would have in T and T, I probably would
have got it. But West World again, side project after
T and T just never. I shouldn't like them. I
should like them more. But see Danny. See what Danny's
doing people out there. He knows what bands I really
don't listen to, and he's picking all those. So now
I'm gonna have to go back and listen to all
(24:17):
those bands. And Danny likes that. I kind of brushed aside. Yeah,
well you're smart.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
It wouldn't It wouldn't hurt to get into Tokyo Blade
or West World. I throw Westwold out and it is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
It's another one I should listen.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I should listen to Talisman, but I don't know squat
about them except Jeff Scott's was a great vocalist, and
I just know all that stuff.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Talisman is really good. I prefer wet.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
But all right, number six, I know I got this.
That's a sign.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
Kick that is true.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
And that song is called water, Yeah, which is why
I couldn't believe you said our own song.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
I know it is only water.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
And I'm thinking of Holy Water by Bad Company. Okay,
I got one and a half. You doubled my score.
You got three, so you're the big winner.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
All Right, I can send my girls to college.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Well you already did. Yeah, you won that slammed buck. Yeah,
Danny's got his got his kids graduated. My kids has
just started. They're in freshmen. So okay, Dan, all right,
maybe I got a better shot the next bit. Uh,
we'll take a quick commercial break and we'll be back
(25:37):
with one we haven't done in a while.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
It's called who the Hell Is This? Now it's time
to play who the Hell is This? All right?
Speaker 4 (25:52):
Welcome back, everybody. We're gonna do what we call who
the Hell is This? Where we play for.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Ten seconds clips of a band that may be big
with a song that we've never heard before, or an
obscure band, or just a band that we just were
never really into. So usually this is pretty difficult. We
give hents between each of the four four segments of songs,
So Mark, you want to go ahead and listen to
(26:19):
the one that I say it all.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Right, so everybody play along. Let's find out what this is.
Sounds very Southern rockish. Ooh, my guess is brother Keane?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
No, that is incorrect, but this is an American four
piece and that's all I'm going to tell you this
first time.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
All right, American four piece sounded very American. Okay, yeah, totally,
here we go.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Wow, sounds like Steve Whiteman. But they're not a four piece.
They're a five pieces.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Kicks is definitely a five piece.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
So it's not that.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Oh it sounded the vocalists did sound familiar. But I'm
gonna guess, and I know this is wrong.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Georgia Satellites, No, that is incorrect.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
This American band they started in nineteen ninety six. They
had four albums out.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
They only did four albums in their career.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Yep, they had a couple of live albums, but they
only had four and they never really made it big.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
I don't think I ever heard them on the radio.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Okay, well we know who they are, all right, Okay, numbers.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
I have not seen this, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
All right.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
I guess we'll find out here here we go. I
think I was right with the vocals. Is this funny money?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Yes? It is. Sounds like Steve White. I wonder why.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Yeah, good one.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Yeah, Kicks out fantastic and love his podcast. He had
who do you have on? He's hadno on there d Snyder.
Love his podcast. He's such a down to earth guy.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Don't think we'll never see We'll never see Kicks again.
He's like, I can't sing like.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
I used to.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
I'm done and I've learned. I'm learning about He's got
something called neuropathy. You ever heard of that? Where he
was in paint a time.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Yeah, he can't regulate his pain with his feet. He's
got like ultra sensitive nerves.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
And if you ever saw Kicks back in the day,
the guy was all over the place and he was
doing it in pain towards the end, so and he
never let on that it was bothering him.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
But Kicks was so freaking good. I probably saw them
eight or ten times.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, I think I saw him about five.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
They closed out M three most years on the Friday night,
and Friday Night was just one stage had like five
or six bands, and Kicks always ended because they were
local bands, because Andrew was in Columbia, Maryland, and Kicks
was basically.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
From Baltimore, you know town outside of Baltimore.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, they're they're from that whole area that West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Baltimore, DC.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
That's where they were the biggest. Yeah, they were. They
were so good man. Well, at least we still have
their music to listen to exactly.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Yeah, they're they're albums are creating all of them.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
So yeah, so if you can find those albums, go
get them. But if you can't find those, grab the
Kicks albums. If you're not familiar, you will not be disappointed.
They were great, all right.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
And the line they're so freaking tight and unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Yeah, okay, they get they get everything they had, all right.
Now the one well, the who the Hell for You
is a band that is still around, but they came
out and well, I won't even say anything.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Just go out and play the first part. Go ahead, Yeah,
who knows? Why am I giving you clues? Already? Go ahead,
let's hear it.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Man, that sounds so familiar. I know I've heard that.
Oh jeez, was that Soul Circus?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
No, it's not soul Circus, but it's a pretty good guess,
all right.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
This band came out in nineteen ninety one. There are
five piece American band.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
Oh, five piece of American five piece American play part
number two here, all right, here you go, five piece
of American bank.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Man kill a guitar riff mm hmm. I have these
guys on the brain because you said it earlier. Is
that dangerous toys?
Speaker 1 (31:37):
It is not dangerous toys? All right?
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Your next clue is this band is released seven studio
albums and they have two live albums.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
Seven albums.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
American five piece originally originally a five piece originally American.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Originally America.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Okay, all right, let's listening Part number three. It's not warrant,
is it?
Speaker 1 (32:13):
It is not warrant? All right?
Speaker 3 (32:15):
More, this band is that had twenty five members in it,
the original band. There's only one guy left and they
had a set of brothers in the band. That's all
I can give you because the next clue I'm gonna
give you.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
If you miss this, we'll give it away.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Brothers in the band. Okay, I might have an idea.
This is the last part. That's a great guitar, all right, bros?
Speaker 4 (32:50):
Is the band? The only one I can think of
is Hardline.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
You'd be correct.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
That is Hardline from twenty twenty one, the Heart, Mind
and Soul album. The brothers were the Gioli brothers, but
one of them retired a couple of years ago, and Johnny,
the lead singer, is the only guy left from that band.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Three current members of Journey were in hard Line.
Speaker 4 (33:16):
I was gonna say that was a Neil band.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Neil Neil Sean Todd Jensen now is in Journey. He
was the bass player, and Dean Castronovo, the drummer in Journey, was.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Also in hard Line.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
So three fifths of Journey or three fists of their
band are now in Journey. So that that was that
was meaning my last one. So yeah, hard Line really good.
That's a that's another band. We should go back and
listen to those albums because the one with Neil Sean
on it was great. But after that, Neil Sean you know,
(33:49):
concentrate on journey and bad English and all that. But
the hard line stuff is good. But and it's mostly
known in Europe. In the States, people don't really know.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
It, so they do triage. That does not sound hard
I gotta check that out for sure, damn right, you do.
Speaker 3 (34:08):
And now we're going to go on to a couple
of concert reviews that I went to that well, Danny
and I really.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Haven't talked about yet.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
A couple of weeks back, I saw The Darkness and
some other band that opened for the Darkness, which I
didn't even see. I skipped them completely. Saw them in
downtown Los Angeles, I didn't think. And it was a
decent sized venue. And right now, the damn venue escapes
my name. I know exactly where. It's not a wheelchair boulevard,
(34:40):
but it holds about twenty five hundred. It's in a theater,
and it's one of those places where there's the will
there you go, it's the will turn. It's got that
floor and then levels up and then therefore kind of
like a rice patty, so if you're towards the back,
you're sitting up higher like the Country Love used to be.
(35:00):
So that was about three three sections back, but straight
shot at the band. I always liked The Darkness for
some reason, but and I was surprised. I didn't think
that not too many people are gonna be at this place.
Speaker 5 (35:13):
But it was pretty backed in the crowd.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
For himself.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
Yeah, he's also got that podcast. It's really entertaining.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
So we're looking at it. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
I just got a smooch on the hard Rock and
Trivia show.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
Hey, so that it's not that kind of show.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
Well, I guess it is now if we made it,
If we made any money on YouTube from this, they
demonetize us now, but we don't, so.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
It doesn't really matter.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
They played their whole career, but they it's the twentieth
anniversary with their first albums, so they concentrate that on
a little more. And Justin Hawkins has that podcast that's
really really funny. It's really smart, witty guy. Yeah, if
you get a chance, it's just called Justin Justin Hawkins
Rides Again. It's on YouTube. I can highly recommends. It's
(36:10):
really entertaining. But The Darkness is a band, super tight,
super fun I mean.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Come on with those some of those songs. They do.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Different styles of music I was. They were super diverse.
And Roger Taylor's son is the drummer now Rufus Taylor
from Queen looks like Roger Taylor but hits a lot
harder than Roger was a good drummer, of course, but
his son is really good as well. This place was backed,
people were singing, dancing, super fun I went on my
(36:44):
Wednesday night.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Wow, I'm glad.
Speaker 3 (36:47):
I did, I mean highly recommency in the darkness, so
they did not.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Stink whatsoever and perfect.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
And he also his range is ridiculous because he does
a little singing along like Freddie Mercury does, and he
would he would start really low, I mean lower than
really high. He was his low his low register was
just as good as his high register. So and his
guitar playing is fantastic. He's probably a better guitar player
(37:17):
than his brother, even though his brother plays the majority
of the guitar stuff, but his brother plays more of
the rhythm stuff because occasionally Justin will throw the guitar
is just no pick it up and they'll play the solo. Yeah,
super good, I mean yeah, so thumbs up for the darkness.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
So yeah, I've always been a fan of there is
not huge. Couldn't name any of their later songs or
albums even, but you know, their first album I liked
a lot.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
But some of the newer stuff they played, they made
it super memorable. Maybe go back to see there the
latest time. I think it's called Dreams on Toast. Stupid name,
but some pretty good songs on it. It's worth listening to.
It's all right, just a fun band. We need more
bands like that. Yeah, all right, and uh, another band
(38:08):
I saw. We drove all the way up to Bakersfield,
which is about seventy miles north of where I live.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
L A.
Speaker 3 (38:19):
Yeah, so it's right up, right up. You drive up
the five to the ninety nine, there's Bakersfield.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
And about it's a town.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
Yeah, it's a town of about four hundred thousand, which
is a lot bigger than I thought.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
It was, all right, and.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
In Bakersfield is one of those it's the butt of
every joke from people from the you know, on the
coast they make fun of, like places like Fresno and Bakersfield.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
But the venue was really nice, Uh it was.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
They have a They have a hockey team I think
called the Condors. It's a minor league hockey team. So
the the arena was about say five thousand, so it's
a small arena.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
And when we got that arena where the hockey team played.
Speaker 3 (39:04):
It's where the hockey team plays, is where most of
the concerts. It's called the Dignity Health Center Arena. Okay,
and uh, you know they have a top section and
they have a lode and they have a floor. Okay,
And so we had seats in the top section. But
the band I'm talking about, we saw Heart and Todd Rungren.
(39:26):
But the tickets then sell that great. So everybody who
had bought tickets up top they got When you walked in,
they said come over here.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
They moved you down nice. So we got great seats.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
I mean, that's really cool.
Speaker 3 (39:43):
Twenty five feet from the stage up top a couple
of people, but we want everybody in the lower bowl.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Yeah, makes sense, So they want they wanted.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
We do that at the Grand A Lot when there's
when there's plenty of seats downsta for people upstairs, we
move him down because the way we can close the
top and not worry about it.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Yeah, you don't have to worry about it.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
Plus, you know, the band probably appreciates they didn't want
seeybody scattered everywhere. So they did that for us, and
so we were very happy with it. Todd Rundgren seventy
seven year old guy does not look like he's seventy seven,
does not sing like he's seventy seven, moves around, could
play guitar and still sing. Now, I'll be honest with you,
(40:27):
I probably know I know three solo songs from Todd
Rundren that I know those. I know one song from Utopia. Unfortunately,
his set, I knew nothing, not one song. Yeah, his
biggest hit, Bang on the Drum, he didn't even play.
So the songs that I knew was Hello, It's Me
(40:49):
Shine a Light, and the other one. But he played
those as a melody. So the three songs I knew
it was in a melody, so they were shortened versions
of the three.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Songs I knew.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
EDLA, I'm Sorry, I'm old, and I'm tired. So he
played a medley of his biggest hits.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
Well that sucks why.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I guess he wanted to concentrate on his other part
of his career, but.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Yeah, he probably is tired of playing those songs. Just
I'll do a verse in a chorus in the.
Speaker 3 (41:17):
Movie and When Hello, When Hello and Hello, it's me started.
He goes, this is the first song I ever wrote,
came out in nineteen seventy one. So yeah, I guess
he's a little burned out on that.
Speaker 4 (41:29):
He's worked with.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
I know he worked with the Beatles, both together and individually.
Speaker 4 (41:33):
I know he worked with Chee Trip New England. Yeah,
he's been. He's worked with everybody.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
Yeah, every person in business.
Speaker 3 (41:43):
He's probably better known as a producer than as an
actual artist. But he's one of those guys that's just
very He's all over the place. I mean, he does
all kinds of styles.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
So he's he just went in.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
He's gotta be.
Speaker 3 (42:03):
Yeah, just for his contributions to everything, not just his stuff,
everything else he's done.
Speaker 4 (42:09):
Well, there's a musical genre called the Bakersfield Sound.
Speaker 3 (42:13):
Todd he was okay, But most of the songs he played,
if you if you were a diehard Todd Rundering fan,
he would have loved it.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:21):
I only knew a couple of songs. He was all right.
Speaker 3 (42:24):
And he was also in the Cars of All Bands.
Speaker 4 (42:27):
Yep, he was.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
He was part of the Bakersfield sound that was going
on back like the Eagles and Bakersfield sound. Yeah, there's
like there's a there's a musical genre called the baker's
Field sound, which is is old old time country.
Speaker 3 (42:48):
Which it wasn't bakers I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
It's it wasn't Bakersfield. It's something else.
Speaker 3 (42:55):
I know what you're talking about, but it's it's an
area in the LA Area where like Jackson Brown and
Linda Ron's dad and Crosby Steals a NaSTA, those guys.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
I forgot. It's not Sunset sound. It's something else. Laurel Canyon.
I think it was without.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
Affair on the country side. It's Bakersfield because Dwight Yoakam
has a song called Bakersfield and he talked about that
when we saw Dwight Yocum a few years ago about
the Bakersfield sound, and Todd Rundwerds was part of that,
but he was also part of the whole more of
the Eagles side.
Speaker 3 (43:31):
It's weird because Todd Runderan's from Philadelphia. Yeah, he's from Philly.
He predates whole notes because he was more of a
solely soul type singer. So he's from Philly, so maybe
he was part of that, especially in the production, So
I don't know. I'm not a todd rundering guy, so
you could be of one thousand percent, right, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
So the band, the headlining band was Heart, all right,
and that Heart was my favorite. My first cassette I
ever bought. I bought David Bowie Changes and I bought
Heart Dreamboat Annie. Those are the first cassettes I ever bought.
And I think I listened to that Heart album a
billion times when I and it put me to sleep
(44:14):
because if you let know, the last song is Dreamboat
Annie at the end, and it just it's a lullabies.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
And that whole.
Speaker 3 (44:23):
Album is still my favorite Heart album by far, because
there's there's rock in it, there's ballads.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
It's just great.
Speaker 3 (44:30):
But if you guys know anything about Heart and is
recovering from cancer, and there was some there was some
video over about six months ago where she broke her
arm and she was in a wheelchair and she wasn't
singing that great and she was I mean, come, when
you're fighting cancer and you got broken arms, like, so
you cut her brake?
Speaker 1 (44:51):
Is not tour I don't know.
Speaker 3 (44:54):
Well, well, I'll get to that in a couple of minutes.
But uh, the other guys in the band. There's probably
six other guys in the band top notch. I don't
know any of them. But oh, going back to Todd Rundron,
the bass player was one of those name session guys.
(45:16):
It's not Leaskwar, but it's the other guy who's played
on everything. I guess last name starts to play. It's
Kai Solom or something like that. He's a bass player.
He played with everybody in the seventies, everybody in the East.
And the drummer was Perry Prince who played in the Tubes.
You can look it up. But their bass player for
(45:36):
Todd rundern was one of those guys who played on everything.
He probably played with Pacaro and those guys Studio Cats.
But the band was great, but I just didn't know
the songs. But getting back to heart, I didn't realize
that Nancy and and Nancy and in seventy five and
Nancy seventy one. Yeah, they had sometimes four guitarists up
(46:03):
there in a bass player.
Speaker 4 (46:05):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (46:05):
Band was great, no name guys, but great bands. And
I was concerned that Anne couldn't pull off the vocals,
especially with all the issues and everything. Yeah, I was pleasantly,
pleasantly surprised she did.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
Pull it off.
Speaker 3 (46:22):
She's saying like a bird, especially the ballads. It was
so great. Dog and Butterfly. Yeah, they did the ballads.
They did a lot of covers too, but the rockers
Magic Man, Crazy on You Great.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
Oh Bearcruder was the last song. Okay, that's the only.
Speaker 3 (46:47):
One that Anne couldn't hit all of the notes he
did in the original version, but so she improvised a
little bit. That's the only one where you noticed there
was a slight slip up. But maybe she's at ninety
five percent and not one hundred. All the other songs,
she still.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
Ann Wilson is way better than most.
Speaker 3 (47:09):
Well, yeah, she's one of my favorite vocalists of all time.
I'm glad I got a chance.
Speaker 1 (47:13):
To see her.
Speaker 3 (47:15):
Tremendous and now they did some odd songs that we've
always known. They loved Zeppelins, so they did at least
three Zeppelin songs Going to They did Going to California,
and I forgot the other two. One of them I
knew was it. It was called I Think with Rain
or something We'll Do with Rain. Okay, and another one
(47:36):
I forgot The other one is they did part of
Let's Dance by David Bowie.
Speaker 1 (47:42):
I thought that was odd.
Speaker 3 (47:45):
And they also did a song called the Voice by
John Farm You know that song. That song was huge
and they announced it this way he goes. This song
was a number one.
Speaker 1 (47:58):
Hit in every country except ours. And she was right.
Speaker 3 (48:02):
That song was huge and it did nothing here. But
it's a fantastic song. So they did it and sung
it like a bird.
Speaker 1 (48:10):
Fantastic.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
Man, that's so good to hear. I'm glad that it's
a bummer. They did so many covers because Heart's catalog
is amazing.
Speaker 3 (48:18):
Yeah, and they kind of shy away from the eighties
stuff a little bit. They're more in the seventy stuff,
which I'm more of a My wife went with me.
She likes the eighties stuff more than I do. I mean,
I like it, but seventy stuff. Seventy is hard for me.
Was where it was at, and they cover.
Speaker 2 (48:35):
I saw them in the mid eighties. I think it
was the bad animals. To her, she was at the
height of her powers. Man, she was unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (48:43):
And now I want to go to the kind of
the bummer news of this, Okay, So when she had
to have help to walk out, and then she kind
of sat on the edge of a stool and she sung.
It was a chair slash stool, so she never stood
up to sing that once. But she was helped out
with the stool, so she and she sang and then
(49:04):
they did when the drummer did a little thing.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
The guy came out and walked her off and they
walked her back. But uh, if you know my wife,
she knows.
Speaker 3 (49:15):
She notices little things about you know, and we've had
some history with my my father with dementia. When you
notice dementia, they start to shuffle. You could see Anne shuffling. Yeah,
so it's just by the way she was walking, and
she wasn't She was pretty.
Speaker 1 (49:34):
Weak and she shuffled. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:37):
I don't know how much longer Heart's going to be
able to tour her. Maybe they're doing this knowing that
time is limited. They're going to get out there as
much as they can.
Speaker 1 (49:45):
So anybody who likes.
Speaker 3 (49:47):
Heart, if they're anywhere near you go see him because
it may be the last chance you have to see them.
So that's the only bum the show.
Speaker 2 (49:56):
Yeah, I'm glad to hear that.
Speaker 4 (49:58):
She sounded good.
Speaker 2 (49:59):
You know, I hate to if she pulled a I
don't know, hold a daily author of Phil Collins on.
Speaker 1 (50:06):
You or or or bon Jovi or Vince Steel.
Speaker 3 (50:12):
Yeah, all the ones we kind of say, you know what,
even Klaus Mina needs to stop. I mean, he's he's
he's at about sixty percent, but he's better than some
of the other guys we just mentioned.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
But yeah, you can get a chance to.
Speaker 3 (50:23):
See Anne and Wilson is I wouldn't even say my
favorite female vocalista, one of my top five vocalists. Ann
Wilson is right there with all the guys. She's amazing.
So if you get a chance go check her out.
I'm sorry, she's not gonna play the Grand. The other
(50:43):
the other freak female singer that's still greatest, Pat Benatar.
So Pat Benattar and Ann Wilson one one A and
one B. They're just freaks.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
They're great.
Speaker 2 (50:55):
See Pat Benatar did come to the Grand. I saw
her and Dana had a front row seat and she
and her husband. It was just a duo kind of thing.
And he had a like a pedalm that would play
some of the backing tracks that he would play along
to with his guitar.
Speaker 4 (51:13):
And then she sang phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (51:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (51:16):
I think the only reason they played the grand because yeah,
they didn't use the full band, because they just played
the form a couple of days ago. They opened for me, yeah,
and for the full band, but they opened for Brian Adams,
and Brian Amams sold it out, so it's the whole
tour is Brian as Pat Benatar great double bill.
Speaker 1 (51:36):
I should have went. I think I was doing something
that day, so I couldn't. I couldn't go to every
show I want to go to.
Speaker 4 (51:41):
But yeah, I don't know that I would go to
that one.
Speaker 1 (51:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (51:47):
I think Iron Maiden coming on this next tour September.
Speaker 4 (51:51):
Eleventh next year.
Speaker 1 (51:53):
Okay, I hope.
Speaker 2 (51:54):
It's still freaking moving. But yeah, Jiffy live down in Virginia.
Speaker 1 (52:02):
Okay, that's in Bristol, Virginia, Rightst Nor. What's that?
Speaker 3 (52:06):
What's the biggest sitting next to it? What's because I
don't know exactly where that's at.
Speaker 4 (52:11):
I know it's near.
Speaker 1 (52:14):
Manassas, Okay, now I know I know where Manassas is.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
Okay, if you take sixty six out from DC, you
get that's how you get there.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
Take sixty six to the ninety nine to the four
or five or the twelve to the five.
Speaker 4 (52:27):
Okay, it's not the sixty six. You take sixty six.
Speaker 3 (52:30):
Out, Okay, whatever, I know. I mean that place wasn't
built when I lived in Virginia.
Speaker 4 (52:37):
So I'm also hoping to go see Glenn Hughes. He's
playing about two hours away.
Speaker 1 (52:45):
You have to, Yeah, take the wife.
Speaker 4 (52:48):
And there was somebody else I wanted to see that's coming.
Speaker 3 (52:52):
Yeah, you talked about seeing Halloween.
Speaker 4 (52:54):
Yeah, Halloween is one somebody else.
Speaker 1 (52:58):
Yeah, I want to see Halloween.
Speaker 3 (52:59):
I want to see Iron May and it's been I
saw Iron Maiden in the late nineties with Blaze, so
I have not seen Wow. And I saw Bruce on
the with you, so it's been a long time since
I've seen Iron Maiden with Bruce.
Speaker 2 (53:12):
So I got I saw them on their Seventh Son
where you our Seventh Son anniversary tour where they played
the whole album and the other stage was like seventh
the seventh Sun Frozen Thunder kind of set.
Speaker 4 (53:28):
Oh, there's somebody else I wanted to go see.
Speaker 1 (53:32):
Oh, I know what tour team.
Speaker 3 (53:34):
They just announced it for next summer, which I think
is interesting. It's the Motley Crue Tesla Extreme Tour.
Speaker 4 (53:47):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
I'm I'm so torn about going to see Motley Crewe.
It's gonna be like a car crash.
Speaker 4 (53:56):
You know, you kind of.
Speaker 2 (53:56):
Want to go see how bad it it's gonna be.
And you have down five who's going to be freaking amazing? Well,
Tesla was freaking awesome and then Extremes on of my
favorite bands.
Speaker 4 (54:07):
But I've seen them so many times recently, but I.
Speaker 3 (54:10):
Think what I noticed with Tesla the last couple of
times i've seen them, Jeff Jeff Keith got this, Hey
does this on some on some of the songs, I'm like,
that's off. What's it's not clean? It's ay saw something
off of his voice. I don't know, maybe it's too
much smoking.
Speaker 4 (54:30):
Or I don't know, and like that for thirty years, Yeah,
well forty years.
Speaker 3 (54:36):
The bands still kill her and so on some songs,
Jeff sounds great, but then there's other times where I
guess when he's trying to sing too high, it does something.
I don't know what it's called. I'm not a vocalist.
Stream's great, Tesla's still really good. Motley Krue if they
would just get rid of the backing vocals.
Speaker 1 (54:55):
And play all their instruments.
Speaker 3 (54:57):
Yeah, And and they came out on Eddie Te drunk
that Vince has had four strokes.
Speaker 4 (55:04):
He's not even to make it the next time.
Speaker 3 (55:06):
I know, he's got to take care of himself. I mean,
we knew about one or two of them, but he said, yeah,
he talked about it goes. They showed me on a
I guess guess it's called a cat scan where they
had takes pictures of his brand and go here here
is a scar here, scar here, You've had four strokes,
and like, wow, damn. So yeah, so hopefully they're good.
(55:28):
I just wish they would play more live. Even if
you put another guitar player out and they're vocalist out
there with them, how about John.
Speaker 2 (55:36):
They don't they don't need another guitar player because John
five is he's one of the best out there right now.
Speaker 4 (55:41):
He's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (55:43):
Or we have another guy you want to see him.
Speaker 4 (55:45):
And Richie Cotson there two wing together and.
Speaker 3 (55:50):
They or put put a keyboard player out there and
just do like there are the rhythm parts where it's
not really out front, you know, and have him be
a background singer too.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
Something like that.
Speaker 3 (56:04):
Yeah, the girls, because they do the girl things. But
are the girls really singing Motley Crue?
Speaker 4 (56:12):
I don't think those girls, I don't care if they're singing.
Speaker 3 (56:16):
Oh they're very entertaining, I must say, but I think
they're singing to tracks, and in fact I know they are.
Forget the tracks, just sing Motley Crue was great when
they didn't use that stuff. But maybe they just And
there's no there's things out there. Some people are saying
Nikki's not even playing bass.
Speaker 4 (56:34):
No, I've heard and Tom's not playing drums.
Speaker 1 (56:38):
That would be sad.
Speaker 2 (56:39):
I've seen video where somebody's hitting the high hat his
account off and he's not even sitting behind the drums.
Speaker 4 (56:47):
And then here it's oh, man, come.
Speaker 1 (56:51):
On, but.
Speaker 3 (56:55):
Right, I think I think the show is going to
I mean, just with those three, those three name bands,
I think that's going to sell out.
Speaker 4 (57:02):
Yeah, I'll try two hundred bucks.
Speaker 3 (57:05):
Yeah, I'm not spending two hundred bucks for that. Would
I go for twenty, maybe thirty? I go for thirty.
Speaker 2 (57:12):
I'd probably go for fifty or sixty, you know, because
I love extreme and Tesla's good, Tessa's always great.
Speaker 3 (57:22):
Yeah, yeah, would I drive two hundred miles to go
see it. No, would I drive thirty Yeah, I drive
thirty miles to pay at thirty Bucks for it?
Speaker 1 (57:33):
I would, but i'd probably.
Speaker 4 (57:35):
I'm going to Baltimore because I know my brother and
his sons would want to go.
Speaker 3 (57:40):
Yeah, if you've never seen them, you should go. I
think here. I think they're playing in Long Beach, which
is basically almost Orange County, and that's with a traffic
that's going to take you an hour and thirty from
where I'm at.
Speaker 1 (57:55):
Yeah, I'm not going.
Speaker 3 (57:57):
I'm not going to Long Beach to see something I've
already seen before.
Speaker 4 (58:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (58:01):
Oh wow, It'll depend on what it is. Whether my
nephews can go. Yeah, Well, one nephews at Columbia University
in New York.
Speaker 1 (58:11):
So where's the other one?
Speaker 2 (58:14):
He's at University of Maryland. I think Baltimore campus. So
he's right.
Speaker 4 (58:18):
He in his apartment.
Speaker 2 (58:21):
If you go up to the top, you can go
out on the out on their deck and you can
look into the Orioles Stadium. Camp cool a little there,
but dangerous. Yeah, it's it's not the best part of town.
But his apartments really cool.
Speaker 3 (58:39):
So why did you choose that campus and not the
regular Maryland campus.
Speaker 4 (58:45):
It's closer and it has a really good nursing program.
Speaker 1 (58:48):
But he wants to be a nurse.
Speaker 2 (58:49):
Yeah, well I think he wants to do anesthesia at
some point. So he's just just starting to get into.
Speaker 4 (58:56):
What he's going to do.
Speaker 3 (58:58):
That's a good career. You're always gonna need somebody doing
that anesthesia.
Speaker 2 (59:03):
He's he's gonna make way more money than he then
his dad and me come by.
Speaker 1 (59:10):
Good for him.
Speaker 3 (59:11):
He can buy you guys on he can take you
guys on vacations when you guys get tired.
Speaker 4 (59:15):
And then when my younger daughter is a lawyer, and
then Justin is running.
Speaker 2 (59:21):
The I don't know the planet, so he'll be a
CEO or something, or I don't know what he's going
to do.
Speaker 4 (59:28):
He'll be a I don't know, surgeon or something.
Speaker 3 (59:32):
Tony Davis, you did well. Good job, all right on
that happy note.
Speaker 2 (59:40):
Yesterday, My lawyer daughter and my older daughter who is
doing awesome.
Speaker 4 (59:46):

Speaker 4 (59:57):
Yeah, I don't care what any of them does. It's
like those are good people, and all of them are
really good people.
Speaker 2 (01:00:03):
And Charlotte just recorded another song tonight at her guitar class.
Speaker 3 (01:00:07):
So we might have to Hey, well we might might
have to play that on the hard rockntribute show.
Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
She'll let us give a little little sampling of that.
Speaker 3 (01:00:17):

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 3 (00:37):
All Right, boys and girls, Welcome to the Hard Rocking
Trivia Show, Episode to ninety something We never remember but.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Five.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
If you're listening anywhere in the world, seems like we
got people from all over the world listening, and we
appreciate you guys taking the time out of your data
listen to a couple of old guys from the States.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
So a couple of you, Yeah, a couple of old rockers.
That's us.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
We should probably change the name of the show to
Old Rockers Incorporated.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
So I wanted to kind of why that's right. I wanted.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I wanted to start off with there's been a lot
of new albums coming out lately, and two of them
are really I've done multiple spins on these two, and
I don't know if you've listened to them yet, because
they I really liked them. The first one would be
the new Treat album. Just said that to me, and
(01:37):
I just forgot the name of the damn album. But
I think, oh, it's the wild Card. It's really strong.
It's like fourteen songs and every chorus is memorable. It's
like could be their best album in years. I mean,
this is a band that's been around since eighty seven,
but they never really had a US deal, so nobody
(01:58):
in the States really.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Knew who they were.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Their Franks now they're Swedish. They went away in the
nineties and came back in the two thousands, and everything
they've done since they've come back. I think they came
back in two thousand and six and the super good.
So I listened to the newer albums and went back
to the old album. It's a pretty strong band. Surprised
(02:22):
that nobody ever picked them up in the States, So yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
I really like them.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I haven't listened to the new album yet because I
think I just got it from you yesterday, or you'll
like it.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
I'm sure classic treat, classic melodic rock with guitars.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
It's really good, so he can't go wrong there. Sure.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
The other one that really got my attention I was
kind of surprised about. I mean, it's a band I
liked in the past. Is the band that we saw
when at the Roxy of all places. It's heavy petting
and the new album is called rock generation. I think
they only have one or two classic members. Songs are
really strong. Again, really good album. I think listen to
(03:05):
about four or five times. So I highly recommend Heavy
Petting and Treat those two new albums nice.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Well, definitely. I did listen to the Heavy Pettent one
through and I did like it.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I haven't I haven't listened to Treating at all yet,
so I'm gonna have to check that out tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Now.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Is there anything that you've been listening to that that's
new that's got your attention?
Speaker 4 (03:27):
I really like the new Mammoth album.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
It's It's the Prize.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Yeah, well.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
It's good.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
It is really good, and it you know, it might
be his best album yet.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
I think he's just it is so good and he's
the fact that he plays every instrument on it just
blows me away.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
But he's he.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Can and it's funny he considers hisself a drummer even
though he can play every Van Haleen song on guitar.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
You know, he just kind of whips out the beginning
of Unchained or.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
You know, like really yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
I saw some interview with him where he was just
playing around on the guitar and it was like it
was effortless.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
It was ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, he's crazy talented.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
But they were just in Baltimore a few weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I wasn't able to go see him, but I've seen
him three times already, and the guy's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
They he gets keeps getting better and better and better
and better. So yeah, yeah, three good albums right there,
So people go out there and buy them, for sure.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Listen to him. They're good.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
They have the two thumbs way up from us. I
guess four thumbs way up from us.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Absolutely, And if you want to if you want to
go the older school thing, still go. If you list
got Spotify, go check out the Hard Rocking Trivia Show
on Spotify. We do have playlists. I was listening to
hard rocking seventies today and just good stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I was running. I was running in the pool.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
That's what I do because I can't run on land anymore.
So I run in the pool get the heart rate up.
And I was jamming to some bto and nice fog
Hat and all.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
That good stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
So I'm wearing my marvelous three shirt that I got
in Atlanta to a month or so ago, and so
I was I went down to see my granddaughters, and
on the way there and back, I.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Was listening to some Marvelous Three.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Love those guys, yeah, even they're the latest Marvelous Three album,
which I like a lot, but I don't know it
by heart like I know the other ones.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Yeah, great band, Love them, love them, love them, love
them again. Four thumbs up for those guys.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
All right, on today's show, we're gonna do a couple
of bits. We're gonna do a six and thirty, then
we're gonna do who the hell is this? And then
we're gonna end the show with a couple of concert
reviews that I went to. So right, sit back, get
the popcorn out, and we're gonna start right now.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
For it is a human number. It's number is six.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
All right, boys and girls, it's time for six and thirty,
where we take six songs and give you five second
clips of those songs all the way up to thirty seconds,
and you have to get your pen and paper out
there and see who the artist is. And each time
we do this there is a theme to it. My
theme this episode is all of these bands are from Sweden,
(06:42):
and none of them really made it here in the
States and anywhere else.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
They pretty much they're more.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Known in Europe, but they're all bands that Danny would
know or artists that Danny would know. And if you're
a hardcore like the most of the people listening to
this show, you'll probably get these. But I didn't make
it especially easy for Danny, because Danny tortures me on
this one, and he regularly he wins on a regular basis,
(07:10):
So maybe I got a shot this week.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
So well, let's see, I'm pretty bait. It's been a
long week already, it's only Monday evening. So let's see
what we got.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Here, all right, Danny.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Some of that stuff was probably really familiar to you,
and some of it.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
It's like, okay, what was that?
Speaker 4 (07:57):
I think I'm pretty sure I have two. I don't.
The others gonna be total guesses.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah, but I think you can get two of those
guesses on just the vocalist alone.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Let's see. Let's listen one more.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Time, alright, Danny.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
All artists from Sweden that never really made a huge
mark in the States. But I can tell you a
couple of these bands when they have those European festivals,
they're really high up and they're playing.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
When it's dark, so they're they're fine.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Their font is bigger and it's not that font like
these those those extreme death metal bands. You can't even
read who.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
The heck it is.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
It looks like Bob Wire or Bushes. I'm like, how
do you know who the band is? None of those bands.
But these are bands that you've heard of, and some
of them I think you're a fan of some of
these bands.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
So all right, well the first one, I'm not really sure.
I really don't know the first one.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Take a wild guess.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Uh shoot, Swedish metal band.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Definitely a power metal band too.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, I'm just gonna guess Pink Cream sixty nine.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Ah, now that'd be incorrect.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
This band was from Fallum, Sweden, and I think they're
having their first headlining tour of the States. They came
over last time and they opened for Halloween. This band
is one of those bands that plays the European scene
and they're high up on those festivals. The name of
the band is Sabotan, Sabatan Sabatan. Yeah, they got their
(10:08):
real power metal, real macho macho power metal.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I'm not a I'm not a huge fan, but they
got a huge following, but they're they're headlining the States,
probably smaller venues, but they're trying.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah, I saw the other band you were talking about, Halloween.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
They're playing in not too far from me. I might
actually go see them.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Yeah, I definitely want to go see them because I've
never seen them, and their new album is really good,
and it's the Pumpkins United version with all three lead
vocalists from their entire career, eight guys on them. They
are all three are in the band because the first
album was the guitar player, the redheaded guy, he sang
lead vocals. Then they brought in Mike Kiskey, who at
(10:57):
the time had long blonde hair. Now he's bald. And
then the guy who replaced him was Andy Daris from
Pink Cream sixty nine. All three guys are in the
band now.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
So yeah, I might have to go see that just
to say I've seen Halloween. Because I really like our
first couple of albums, I haven't. I kind of fell
off my radar for a while.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
I'm telling you listen to the Pumpkins United. Their new
album I think is self titled. Okay, if you like
Iron Maiden, you gotta like Halloween.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Yeah. Yeah, they reminded me a lot of Iron Maiden
back then.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
All right, so number two, what do you think number two?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
I don't know for sure.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I don't even know if these guys are Swedish, but
they it really sounds for me.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
I'm gonna say it's hardcore superstar.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
You would be correct, sir.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yes, they're from Gothenburg, Sweden. He's been around since nineteen
ninety seven.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Really, yeah, So it's one of those bands.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
They're one of the bands kind of put on and
listen to nice.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
And they do play the States occasionally, but most of
the time when they do play, it's like at the
on the on the Monsters or Rock crewis and stuff
like that. But they'd never do a full tour. I've
never Maybe they play around but sporadic. I think they're trying.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
But terrible name.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
But they play everywhere else in the world. So maybe
one of these days we'll get to see them. So
you got that one correct? Number three?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
What do you think I'm gonna guess again?
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I think that's Pink Cream sixty nine.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You'd be incorrect. Pink Cream sixty nine is German. That's shit.
I thought I knew they were in European Number three.
We just talked about this band five minutes ago.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
That is new music from treat Man and that is
their new singles called Endeavor. I thought you'd get that one.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
That just that's just like Ooz's melodic rock, which.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Is right, you're gonna love it for sure. Number four or.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
I'm gonna guess that's Warkings.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Ah, that's close. But this band is much bigger than Warkings.
The name of that band is Hammerfall.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
They're bigger than Warkings, a lot bigger.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Hammerfall headlines these these these events, they're either like second
Banana or their top They're huge and they've been around.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Since nineteen ninety three. Wow, I would say. And in the.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Power metals genre, Halloween would be probably the big dogs,
and I'd say hammer Falls right a close second. They're
that they're that big. But here actually I think Hammerfall
would be. They might have voted for Halloween too. I
don't think they've headlined anything. If they did, it would
be smaller places, right. Number five, you gotta.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Get that number five. I think I Crash Diet correct Man,
such a good song.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
We're all Idiots. I love that song. I don't know
what number singer. That is, they've had five or six
already or.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Something like that. But yeah, still quality music.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
And then the last one, I don't think that's a
band at all. I think it's there grond Wall.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You'd be correct. Yes, I didn't think he'd heard that before.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
I had not, but I can tell by the voice.
The guy is unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Yeah, he's got two solo albums out that have all
covers on him, wide range of stuff. I picked it
because it's a Van Halen song and yeah, man that
that guy can sing.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
Oh, no doubt.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
So you got three got hardcore Superstar, Crash Diet and
Eric Runwaal so three. So maybe I didn't make it
hard enough.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Oh no, that was very difficult. I was really sure.
I'm hardcore superstar. The other two I'm pretty pretty well
got all right now, the one for you, I kind
of threw in a couple of softballs at the end
that if you don't get I'm going to be very disappointed.
But the other four, this is gonna be a little difficult,
I think, but who knows.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
You may get him right off the bat. But I've
had an issue in my house again with water.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Fucking water I hate. I wish there was some way
you could do what you had to do without water
in the house. But you know, my kitchen sink backed up,
and you know I couldn't get it out with the
snake I had, so called had.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
To call a plumberge and a bigger snake.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
So somebody stuffed something in the sink that didn't go
all the way down.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Well no, it was like it looked like it was
probably rice or potatoes or like potato skins.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
And he said you shouldn't put anything down, even with
a disposal.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
But yeah, we try not to.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, I just everything should go the trash.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
So we'll blame Dana. Dana, way to go, Dina.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
No it was me, Okay, no doubt it was me.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
But so much? How much? How much did it cost you?
Speaker 4 (16:18):
Yeah, like I had that in my spare wallet before
Christmas time.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Yeah, they're great. It's always it's always something.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
So anyway, I've had water on the mind for a
few days now. So these songs all have water in
the title.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Okay, all right, that's that's creative.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Okay, everybody out there, if you're in your truck, do
not get a piece of paper out and write just
do it in your head.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Everybody else, if you're at home, get a piece of paper.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Out and write out the name of the artist. Here
we go have water in the title.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
I can't even think.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
I can only off the top of my head right now,
just because I can only think of one song with
water in the title.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
So black Water, keep On, Keep On.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Okay too, wasn't the one I was thinking of. I
was thinking of Holy Water by Bad Company. All right,
here we go, play along at home.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
Kiddies, Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Wow, I have no idea on.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
This, you know, you know all these bands, there's nobody
that pulled out, like had one independent album from from Norway.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
The only one I got right away was the last one.
Everything else was like, huh.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
That's a softball. The one before that's a good one too, but.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I don't know about that. All right, here we go again.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Bigger Fan is that's the number five song band?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I don't know if you were a Bigger Fan as
I was, so I don't.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
I need to get two of these, and they're all
gonna be guesses. The first one is I was blanked
on Here we Go again. I think I'm gonna lose
(19:04):
this Dan, I just need three to tie. I wrote
six guesses down, but five of my six are definitely guesses.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
Okay, well let's hear their first guess.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
All right? Ah, I know this one's wrong. I wrote helloween.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
No, that is incorrect.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
This man, I was pretty intune the first few albums,
especially their album Black Hearts and Jaded Spates.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Oh god, now I know who it is.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
It's Tokyo Blade, that is correct. You know what really
sucks because I there's a best of Tokyo Blade down
that just came out and I'm gonna send it to
you tonight or tomorrow. Nice, So it should have been
on the brain. And you always love like them a
lot more than I did. I never thought they were bad,
(19:57):
but I just never got into them, I guess because
I was in the their thousand other bands, but.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
They were never bad. They were never bad, and I
was never disappointed. But I don't know why. It just
never stuck with me. So that's a that's wrong.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
That's wrong.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Okay. Number two My guess is love hate A.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
No, that's not too far because.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
It's Jizy Pearl, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
It is? The album Time was ten oh and we
I don't think we did. But I saw this band
in this incarnation with Pearl singing?
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Was it La Guns? No, Jesus Pearl singing with rat
la Guns? He's currently quite Is this quite right?
Speaker 4 (20:51):
It is? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
I got the voice, I just got the band.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
So I'll give you half a point for that.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Oh generous?
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (21:02):
All right?
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Number three is gonna Number three is gonna be wrong too.
But I wrote Helix no, not even close.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Huh No.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
This guy killer first maybe second album, then he decided
to go country, then he came back, came back to us.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Is the ron keel that is? Yep?
Speaker 3 (21:28):
I should have got it on the voice, damn. He's
got a very distinct distinct voice.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
He does, But it was this song wasn't so obvious
his voice, you know, like the first album. You can
tell every song sounds like it's him.
Speaker 5 (21:42):
All right.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
The number four one, I think is the hardest.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
My guess is I know this is wrong, but I
wrote down dangerous Toys.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Ah No, not mad guess though? That was Airborne. Yeah, Airborn.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
I'm familiar with Airborne, and I do have all their albums,
but I just don't listen to them.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Yeah, they're if they're kind of a ac DC thing.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Yeah, when ac DC finally goes away, maybe Airborne will
take their spot.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
They're very popular in Europe and they they're energetic, and
I should like them more than I just I get
there's too many bands that sound like them. I just
listen to the bands that sound like them.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Well, you know, I consider myself an ac DC fan.
But you know, it's just okay, they have another album out,
Is it going to be any different? Nope, Nope, it's not.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
I mean, when's the last time you got excited about
an ac DC album, which is I really knocked your
socks off?
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
And I don't from what I've seen of the no
videos of the concerts live stuff lately. Nh.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Yeah, it's it's time to go, I think for them.
I mean, they're they're playing the stadiums.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
But yeah, it's hard to say time to go when
you're filling six he's seventy thousand people.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
I mean, Brian is an older guy. I mean he's
still singing it, but is as gray as it was. No,
but it's not terrible. And Angus looks really old. He's
still he's got the energy. But yeah, yeah, okay, number
five total five total guests, hailstorm.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Ah no, it is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
And the other my other guest was Sorayah.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
No, you didn't get that. You didn't get by the
vocalist him. No, no, that was Tony Hartnell.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I thought it was a female. Oops. Oops. And I'm
a fan. I like Tohn. He's a great singer. Oh yeah, yeah, okay.
Oh it must be the West World then that is it?
Speaker 4 (23:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Yeah, you again, that's I love T and D. If
it would have in T and T, I probably would
have got it. But West World again, side project after
T and T just never. I shouldn't like them. I
should like them more. But see Danny. See what Danny's
doing people out there. He knows what bands I really
don't listen to, and he's picking all those. So now
I'm gonna have to go back and listen to all
(24:17):
those bands. And Danny likes that. I kind of brushed aside. Yeah,
well you're smart.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
It wouldn't It wouldn't hurt to get into Tokyo Blade
or West World. I throw Westwold out and it is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
It's another one I should listen.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I should listen to Talisman, but I don't know squat
about them except Jeff Scott's was a great vocalist, and
I just know all that stuff.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Talisman is really good. I prefer wet.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
But all right, number six, I know I got this.
That's a sign.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
Kick that is true.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
And that song is called water, Yeah, which is why
I couldn't believe you said our own song.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
I know it is only water.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
And I'm thinking of Holy Water by Bad Company. Okay,
I got one and a half. You doubled my score.
You got three, so you're the big winner.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
All Right, I can send my girls to college.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Well you already did. Yeah, you won that slammed buck. Yeah,
Danny's got his got his kids graduated. My kids has
just started. They're in freshmen. So okay, Dan, all right,
maybe I got a better shot the next bit. Uh,
we'll take a quick commercial break and we'll be back
(25:37):
with one we haven't done in a while.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
It's called who the Hell Is This? Now it's time
to play who the Hell is This? All right?
Speaker 4 (25:52):
Welcome back, everybody. We're gonna do what we call who
the Hell is This? Where we play for.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Ten seconds clips of a band that may be big
with a song that we've never heard before, or an
obscure band, or just a band that we just were
never really into. So usually this is pretty difficult. We
give hents between each of the four four segments of songs,
So Mark, you want to go ahead and listen to
(26:19):
the one that I say it all.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Right, so everybody play along. Let's find out what this is.
Sounds very Southern rockish. Ooh, my guess is brother Keane?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
No, that is incorrect, but this is an American four
piece and that's all I'm going to tell you this
first time.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
All right, American four piece sounded very American. Okay, yeah, totally,
here we go.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Wow, sounds like Steve Whiteman. But they're not a four piece.
They're a five pieces.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Kicks is definitely a five piece.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
So it's not that.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Oh it sounded the vocalists did sound familiar. But I'm
gonna guess, and I know this is wrong.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Georgia Satellites, No, that is incorrect.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
This American band they started in nineteen ninety six. They
had four albums out.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
They only did four albums in their career.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Yep, they had a couple of live albums, but they
only had four and they never really made it big.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
I don't think I ever heard them on the radio.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Okay, well we know who they are, all right, Okay, numbers.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
I have not seen this, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
All right.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
I guess we'll find out here here we go. I
think I was right with the vocals. Is this funny money?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Yes? It is. Sounds like Steve White. I wonder why.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Yeah, good one.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Yeah, Kicks out fantastic and love his podcast. He had
who do you have on? He's hadno on there d Snyder.
Love his podcast. He's such a down to earth guy.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Don't think we'll never see We'll never see Kicks again.
He's like, I can't sing like.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
I used to.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
I'm done and I've learned. I'm learning about He's got
something called neuropathy. You ever heard of that? Where he
was in paint a time.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Yeah, he can't regulate his pain with his feet. He's
got like ultra sensitive nerves.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
And if you ever saw Kicks back in the day,
the guy was all over the place and he was
doing it in pain towards the end, so and he
never let on that it was bothering him.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
But Kicks was so freaking good. I probably saw them
eight or ten times.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, I think I saw him about five.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
They closed out M three most years on the Friday night,
and Friday Night was just one stage had like five
or six bands, and Kicks always ended because they were
local bands, because Andrew was in Columbia, Maryland, and Kicks
was basically.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
From Baltimore, you know town outside of Baltimore.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, they're they're from that whole area that West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Baltimore, DC.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
That's where they were the biggest. Yeah, they were. They
were so good man. Well, at least we still have
their music to listen to exactly.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Yeah, they're they're albums are creating all of them.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
So yeah, so if you can find those albums, go
get them. But if you can't find those, grab the
Kicks albums. If you're not familiar, you will not be disappointed.
They were great, all right.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
And the line they're so freaking tight and unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Yeah, okay, they get they get everything they had, all right.
Now the one well, the who the Hell for You
is a band that is still around, but they came
out and well, I won't even say anything.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Just go out and play the first part. Go ahead, Yeah,
who knows? Why am I giving you clues? Already? Go ahead,
let's hear it.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Man, that sounds so familiar. I know I've heard that.
Oh jeez, was that Soul Circus?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
No, it's not soul Circus, but it's a pretty good guess,
all right.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
This band came out in nineteen ninety one. There are
five piece American band.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
Oh, five piece of American five piece American play part
number two here, all right, here you go, five piece
of American bank.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Man kill a guitar riff mm hmm. I have these
guys on the brain because you said it earlier. Is
that dangerous toys?
Speaker 1 (31:37):
It is not dangerous toys? All right?
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Your next clue is this band is released seven studio
albums and they have two live albums.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
Seven albums.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
American five piece originally originally a five piece originally American.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Originally America.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Okay, all right, let's listening Part number three. It's not warrant,
is it?
Speaker 1 (32:13):
It is not warrant? All right?
Speaker 3 (32:15):
More, this band is that had twenty five members in it,
the original band. There's only one guy left and they
had a set of brothers in the band. That's all
I can give you because the next clue I'm gonna
give you.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
If you miss this, we'll give it away.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Brothers in the band. Okay, I might have an idea.
This is the last part. That's a great guitar, all right, bros?
Speaker 4 (32:50):
Is the band? The only one I can think of
is Hardline.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
You'd be correct.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
That is Hardline from twenty twenty one, the Heart, Mind
and Soul album. The brothers were the Gioli brothers, but
one of them retired a couple of years ago, and Johnny,
the lead singer, is the only guy left from that band.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Three current members of Journey were in hard Line.
Speaker 4 (33:16):
I was gonna say that was a Neil band.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Neil Neil Sean Todd Jensen now is in Journey. He
was the bass player, and Dean Castronovo, the drummer in Journey, was.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Also in hard Line.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
So three fifths of Journey or three fists of their
band are now in Journey. So that that was that
was meaning my last one. So yeah, hard Line really good.
That's a that's another band. We should go back and
listen to those albums because the one with Neil Sean
on it was great. But after that, Neil Sean you know,
(33:49):
concentrate on journey and bad English and all that. But
the hard line stuff is good. But and it's mostly
known in Europe. In the States, people don't really know.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
It, so they do triage. That does not sound hard
I gotta check that out for sure, damn right, you do.
Speaker 3 (34:08):
And now we're going to go on to a couple
of concert reviews that I went to that well, Danny
and I really.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Haven't talked about yet.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
A couple of weeks back, I saw The Darkness and
some other band that opened for the Darkness, which I
didn't even see. I skipped them completely. Saw them in
downtown Los Angeles, I didn't think. And it was a
decent sized venue. And right now, the damn venue escapes
my name. I know exactly where. It's not a wheelchair boulevard,
(34:40):
but it holds about twenty five hundred. It's in a theater,
and it's one of those places where there's the will
there you go, it's the will turn. It's got that
floor and then levels up and then therefore kind of
like a rice patty, so if you're towards the back,
you're sitting up higher like the Country Love used to be.
(35:00):
So that was about three three sections back, but straight
shot at the band. I always liked The Darkness for
some reason, but and I was surprised. I didn't think
that not too many people are gonna be at this place.
Speaker 5 (35:13):
But it was pretty backed in the crowd.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
For himself.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
Yeah, he's also got that podcast. It's really entertaining.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
So we're looking at it. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
I just got a smooch on the hard Rock and
Trivia show.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
Hey, so that it's not that kind of show.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
Well, I guess it is now if we made it,
If we made any money on YouTube from this, they
demonetize us now, but we don't, so.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
It doesn't really matter.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
They played their whole career, but they it's the twentieth
anniversary with their first albums, so they concentrate that on
a little more. And Justin Hawkins has that podcast that's
really really funny. It's really smart, witty guy. Yeah, if
you get a chance, it's just called Justin Justin Hawkins
Rides Again. It's on YouTube. I can highly recommends. It's
(36:10):
really entertaining. But The Darkness is a band, super tight,
super fun I mean.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Come on with those some of those songs. They do.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Different styles of music I was. They were super diverse.
And Roger Taylor's son is the drummer now Rufus Taylor
from Queen looks like Roger Taylor but hits a lot
harder than Roger was a good drummer, of course, but
his son is really good as well. This place was backed,
people were singing, dancing, super fun I went on my
(36:44):
Wednesday night.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Wow, I'm glad.
Speaker 3 (36:47):
I did, I mean highly recommency in the darkness, so
they did not.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Stink whatsoever and perfect.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
And he also his range is ridiculous because he does
a little singing along like Freddie Mercury does, and he
would he would start really low, I mean lower than
really high. He was his low his low register was
just as good as his high register. So and his
guitar playing is fantastic. He's probably a better guitar player
(37:17):
than his brother, even though his brother plays the majority
of the guitar stuff, but his brother plays more of
the rhythm stuff because occasionally Justin will throw the guitar
is just no pick it up and they'll play the solo. Yeah,
super good, I mean yeah, so thumbs up for the darkness.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
So yeah, I've always been a fan of there is
not huge. Couldn't name any of their later songs or
albums even, but you know, their first album I liked
a lot.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
But some of the newer stuff they played, they made
it super memorable. Maybe go back to see there the
latest time. I think it's called Dreams on Toast. Stupid name,
but some pretty good songs on it. It's worth listening to.
It's all right, just a fun band. We need more
bands like that. Yeah, all right, and uh, another band
(38:08):
I saw. We drove all the way up to Bakersfield,
which is about seventy miles north of where I live.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
L A.
Speaker 3 (38:19):
Yeah, so it's right up, right up. You drive up
the five to the ninety nine, there's Bakersfield.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
And about it's a town.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
Yeah, it's a town of about four hundred thousand, which
is a lot bigger than I thought.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
It was, all right, and.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
In Bakersfield is one of those it's the butt of
every joke from people from the you know, on the
coast they make fun of, like places like Fresno and Bakersfield.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
But the venue was really nice, Uh it was.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
They have a They have a hockey team I think
called the Condors. It's a minor league hockey team. So
the the arena was about say five thousand, so it's
a small arena.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
And when we got that arena where the hockey team played.
Speaker 3 (39:04):
It's where the hockey team plays, is where most of
the concerts. It's called the Dignity Health Center Arena. Okay,
and uh, you know they have a top section and
they have a lode and they have a floor. Okay,
And so we had seats in the top section. But
the band I'm talking about, we saw Heart and Todd Rungren.
(39:26):
But the tickets then sell that great. So everybody who
had bought tickets up top they got When you walked in,
they said come over here.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
They moved you down nice. So we got great seats.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
I mean, that's really cool.
Speaker 3 (39:43):
Twenty five feet from the stage up top a couple
of people, but we want everybody in the lower bowl.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Yeah, makes sense, So they want they wanted.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
We do that at the Grand A Lot when there's
when there's plenty of seats downsta for people upstairs, we
move him down because the way we can close the
top and not worry about it.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Yeah, you don't have to worry about it.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
Plus, you know, the band probably appreciates they didn't want
seeybody scattered everywhere. So they did that for us, and
so we were very happy with it. Todd Rundgren seventy
seven year old guy does not look like he's seventy seven,
does not sing like he's seventy seven, moves around, could
play guitar and still sing. Now, I'll be honest with you,
(40:27):
I probably know I know three solo songs from Todd
Rundren that I know those. I know one song from Utopia. Unfortunately,
his set, I knew nothing, not one song. Yeah, his
biggest hit, Bang on the Drum, he didn't even play.
So the songs that I knew was Hello, It's Me
(40:49):
Shine a Light, and the other one. But he played
those as a melody. So the three songs I knew
it was in a melody, so they were shortened versions
of the three.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Songs I knew.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
EDLA, I'm Sorry, I'm old, and I'm tired. So he
played a medley of his biggest hits.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
Well that sucks why.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I guess he wanted to concentrate on his other part
of his career, but.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Yeah, he probably is tired of playing those songs. Just
I'll do a verse in a chorus in the.
Speaker 3 (41:17):
Movie and When Hello, When Hello and Hello, it's me started.
He goes, this is the first song I ever wrote,
came out in nineteen seventy one. So yeah, I guess
he's a little burned out on that.
Speaker 4 (41:29):
He's worked with.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
I know he worked with the Beatles, both together and individually.
Speaker 4 (41:33):
I know he worked with Chee Trip New England. Yeah,
he's been. He's worked with everybody.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
Yeah, every person in business.
Speaker 3 (41:43):
He's probably better known as a producer than as an
actual artist. But he's one of those guys that's just
very He's all over the place. I mean, he does
all kinds of styles.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
So he's he just went in.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
He's gotta be.
Speaker 3 (42:03):
Yeah, just for his contributions to everything, not just his stuff,
everything else he's done.
Speaker 4 (42:09):
Well, there's a musical genre called the Bakersfield Sound.
Speaker 3 (42:13):
Todd he was okay, But most of the songs he played,
if you if you were a diehard Todd Rundering fan,
he would have loved it.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:21):
I only knew a couple of songs. He was all right.
Speaker 3 (42:24):
And he was also in the Cars of All Bands.
Speaker 4 (42:27):
Yep, he was.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
He was part of the Bakersfield sound that was going
on back like the Eagles and Bakersfield sound. Yeah, there's
like there's a there's a musical genre called the baker's
Field sound, which is is old old time country.
Speaker 3 (42:48):
Which it wasn't bakers I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
It's it wasn't Bakersfield. It's something else.
Speaker 3 (42:55):
I know what you're talking about, but it's it's an
area in the LA Area where like Jackson Brown and
Linda Ron's dad and Crosby Steals a NaSTA, those guys.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
I forgot. It's not Sunset sound. It's something else. Laurel Canyon.
I think it was without.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
Affair on the country side. It's Bakersfield because Dwight Yoakam
has a song called Bakersfield and he talked about that
when we saw Dwight Yocum a few years ago about
the Bakersfield sound, and Todd Rundwerds was part of that,
but he was also part of the whole more of
the Eagles side.
Speaker 3 (43:31):
It's weird because Todd Runderan's from Philadelphia. Yeah, he's from Philly.
He predates whole notes because he was more of a
solely soul type singer. So he's from Philly, so maybe
he was part of that, especially in the production, So
I don't know. I'm not a todd rundering guy, so
you could be of one thousand percent, right, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
So the band, the headlining band was Heart, all right,
and that Heart was my favorite. My first cassette I
ever bought. I bought David Bowie Changes and I bought
Heart Dreamboat Annie. Those are the first cassettes I ever bought.
And I think I listened to that Heart album a
billion times when I and it put me to sleep
(44:14):
because if you let know, the last song is Dreamboat
Annie at the end, and it just it's a lullabies.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
And that whole.
Speaker 3 (44:23):
Album is still my favorite Heart album by far, because
there's there's rock in it, there's ballads.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
It's just great.
Speaker 3 (44:30):
But if you guys know anything about Heart and is
recovering from cancer, and there was some there was some
video over about six months ago where she broke her
arm and she was in a wheelchair and she wasn't
singing that great and she was I mean, come, when
you're fighting cancer and you got broken arms, like, so
you cut her brake?
Speaker 1 (44:51):
Is not tour I don't know.
Speaker 3 (44:54):
Well, well, I'll get to that in a couple of minutes.
But uh, the other guys in the band. There's probably
six other guys in the band top notch. I don't
know any of them. But oh, going back to Todd Rundron,
the bass player was one of those name session guys.
(45:16):
It's not Leaskwar, but it's the other guy who's played
on everything. I guess last name starts to play. It's
Kai Solom or something like that. He's a bass player.
He played with everybody in the seventies, everybody in the East.
And the drummer was Perry Prince who played in the Tubes.
You can look it up. But their bass player for
(45:36):
Todd rundern was one of those guys who played on everything.
He probably played with Pacaro and those guys Studio Cats.
But the band was great, but I just didn't know
the songs. But getting back to heart, I didn't realize
that Nancy and and Nancy and in seventy five and
Nancy seventy one. Yeah, they had sometimes four guitarists up
(46:03):
there in a bass player.
Speaker 4 (46:05):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (46:05):
Band was great, no name guys, but great bands. And
I was concerned that Anne couldn't pull off the vocals,
especially with all the issues and everything. Yeah, I was pleasantly,
pleasantly surprised she did.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
Pull it off.
Speaker 3 (46:22):
She's saying like a bird, especially the ballads. It was
so great. Dog and Butterfly. Yeah, they did the ballads.
They did a lot of covers too, but the rockers
Magic Man, Crazy on You Great.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
Oh Bearcruder was the last song. Okay, that's the only.
Speaker 3 (46:47):
One that Anne couldn't hit all of the notes he
did in the original version, but so she improvised a
little bit. That's the only one where you noticed there
was a slight slip up. But maybe she's at ninety
five percent and not one hundred. All the other songs,
she still.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
Ann Wilson is way better than most.
Speaker 3 (47:09):
Well, yeah, she's one of my favorite vocalists of all time.
I'm glad I got a chance.
Speaker 1 (47:13):
To see her.
Speaker 3 (47:15):
Tremendous and now they did some odd songs that we've
always known. They loved Zeppelins, so they did at least
three Zeppelin songs Going to They did Going to California,
and I forgot the other two. One of them I
knew was it. It was called I Think with Rain
or something We'll Do with Rain. Okay, and another one
(47:36):
I forgot The other one is they did part of
Let's Dance by David Bowie.
Speaker 1 (47:42):
I thought that was odd.
Speaker 3 (47:45):
And they also did a song called the Voice by
John Farm You know that song. That song was huge
and they announced it this way he goes. This song
was a number one.
Speaker 1 (47:58):
Hit in every country except ours. And she was right.
Speaker 3 (48:02):
That song was huge and it did nothing here. But
it's a fantastic song. So they did it and sung
it like a bird.
Speaker 1 (48:10):
Fantastic.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
Man, that's so good to hear. I'm glad that it's
a bummer. They did so many covers because Heart's catalog
is amazing.
Speaker 3 (48:18):
Yeah, and they kind of shy away from the eighties
stuff a little bit. They're more in the seventy stuff,
which I'm more of a My wife went with me.
She likes the eighties stuff more than I do. I mean,
I like it, but seventy stuff. Seventy is hard for me.
Was where it was at, and they cover.
Speaker 2 (48:35):
I saw them in the mid eighties. I think it
was the bad animals. To her, she was at the
height of her powers. Man, she was unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (48:43):
And now I want to go to the kind of
the bummer news of this, Okay, So when she had
to have help to walk out, and then she kind
of sat on the edge of a stool and she sung.
It was a chair slash stool, so she never stood
up to sing that once. But she was helped out
with the stool, so she and she sang and then
(49:04):
they did when the drummer did a little thing.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
The guy came out and walked her off and they
walked her back. But uh, if you know my wife,
she knows.
Speaker 3 (49:15):
She notices little things about you know, and we've had
some history with my my father with dementia. When you
notice dementia, they start to shuffle. You could see Anne shuffling. Yeah,
so it's just by the way she was walking, and
she wasn't She was pretty.
Speaker 1 (49:34):
Weak and she shuffled. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:37):
I don't know how much longer Heart's going to be
able to tour her. Maybe they're doing this knowing that
time is limited. They're going to get out there as
much as they can.
Speaker 1 (49:45):
So anybody who likes.
Speaker 3 (49:47):
Heart, if they're anywhere near you go see him because
it may be the last chance you have to see them.
So that's the only bum the show.
Speaker 2 (49:56):
Yeah, I'm glad to hear that.
Speaker 4 (49:58):
She sounded good.
Speaker 2 (49:59):
You know, I hate to if she pulled a I
don't know, hold a daily author of Phil Collins on.
Speaker 1 (50:06):
You or or or bon Jovi or Vince Steel.
Speaker 3 (50:12):
Yeah, all the ones we kind of say, you know what,
even Klaus Mina needs to stop. I mean, he's he's
he's at about sixty percent, but he's better than some
of the other guys we just mentioned.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
But yeah, you can get a chance to.
Speaker 3 (50:23):
See Anne and Wilson is I wouldn't even say my
favorite female vocalista, one of my top five vocalists. Ann
Wilson is right there with all the guys. She's amazing.
So if you get a chance go check her out.
I'm sorry, she's not gonna play the Grand. The other
(50:43):
the other freak female singer that's still greatest, Pat Benatar.
So Pat Benattar and Ann Wilson one one A and
one B. They're just freaks.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
They're great.
Speaker 2 (50:55):
See Pat Benatar did come to the Grand. I saw
her and Dana had a front row seat and she
and her husband. It was just a duo kind of thing.
And he had a like a pedalm that would play
some of the backing tracks that he would play along
to with his guitar.
Speaker 4 (51:13):
And then she sang phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (51:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (51:16):
I think the only reason they played the grand because yeah,
they didn't use the full band, because they just played
the form a couple of days ago. They opened for me, yeah,
and for the full band, but they opened for Brian Adams,
and Brian Amams sold it out, so it's the whole
tour is Brian as Pat Benatar great double bill.
Speaker 1 (51:36):
I should have went. I think I was doing something
that day, so I couldn't. I couldn't go to every
show I want to go to.
Speaker 4 (51:41):
But yeah, I don't know that I would go to
that one.
Speaker 1 (51:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (51:47):
I think Iron Maiden coming on this next tour September.
Speaker 4 (51:51):
Eleventh next year.
Speaker 1 (51:53):
Okay, I hope.
Speaker 2 (51:54):
It's still freaking moving. But yeah, Jiffy live down in Virginia.
Speaker 1 (52:02):
Okay, that's in Bristol, Virginia, Rightst Nor. What's that?
Speaker 3 (52:06):
What's the biggest sitting next to it? What's because I
don't know exactly where that's at.
Speaker 4 (52:11):
I know it's near.
Speaker 1 (52:14):
Manassas, Okay, now I know I know where Manassas is.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
Okay, if you take sixty six out from DC, you
get that's how you get there.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
Take sixty six to the ninety nine to the four
or five or the twelve to the five.
Speaker 4 (52:27):
Okay, it's not the sixty six. You take sixty six.
Speaker 3 (52:30):
Out, Okay, whatever, I know. I mean that place wasn't
built when I lived in Virginia.
Speaker 4 (52:37):
So I'm also hoping to go see Glenn Hughes. He's
playing about two hours away.
Speaker 1 (52:45):
You have to, Yeah, take the wife.
Speaker 4 (52:48):
And there was somebody else I wanted to see that's coming.
Speaker 3 (52:52):
Yeah, you talked about seeing Halloween.
Speaker 4 (52:54):
Yeah, Halloween is one somebody else.
Speaker 1 (52:58):
Yeah, I want to see Halloween.
Speaker 3 (52:59):
I want to see Iron May and it's been I
saw Iron Maiden in the late nineties with Blaze, so
I have not seen Wow. And I saw Bruce on
the with you, so it's been a long time since
I've seen Iron Maiden with Bruce.
Speaker 2 (53:12):
So I got I saw them on their Seventh Son
where you our Seventh Son anniversary tour where they played
the whole album and the other stage was like seventh
the seventh Sun Frozen Thunder kind of set.
Speaker 4 (53:28):
Oh, there's somebody else I wanted to go see.
Speaker 1 (53:32):
Oh, I know what tour team.
Speaker 3 (53:34):
They just announced it for next summer, which I think
is interesting. It's the Motley Crue Tesla Extreme Tour.
Speaker 4 (53:47):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
I'm I'm so torn about going to see Motley Crewe.
It's gonna be like a car crash.
Speaker 4 (53:56):
You know, you kind of.
Speaker 2 (53:56):
Want to go see how bad it it's gonna be.
And you have down five who's going to be freaking amazing? Well,
Tesla was freaking awesome and then Extremes on of my
favorite bands.
Speaker 4 (54:07):
But I've seen them so many times recently, but I.
Speaker 3 (54:10):
Think what I noticed with Tesla the last couple of
times i've seen them, Jeff Jeff Keith got this, Hey
does this on some on some of the songs, I'm like,
that's off. What's it's not clean? It's ay saw something
off of his voice. I don't know, maybe it's too
much smoking.
Speaker 4 (54:30):
Or I don't know, and like that for thirty years, Yeah,
well forty years.
Speaker 3 (54:36):
The bands still kill her and so on some songs,
Jeff sounds great, but then there's other times where I
guess when he's trying to sing too high, it does something.
I don't know what it's called. I'm not a vocalist.
Stream's great, Tesla's still really good. Motley Krue if they
would just get rid of the backing vocals.
Speaker 1 (54:55):
And play all their instruments.
Speaker 3 (54:57):
Yeah, And and they came out on Eddie Te drunk
that Vince has had four strokes.
Speaker 4 (55:04):
He's not even to make it the next time.
Speaker 3 (55:06):
I know, he's got to take care of himself. I mean,
we knew about one or two of them, but he said, yeah,
he talked about it goes. They showed me on a
I guess guess it's called a cat scan where they
had takes pictures of his brand and go here here
is a scar here, scar here, You've had four strokes,
and like, wow, damn. So yeah, so hopefully they're good.
(55:28):
I just wish they would play more live. Even if
you put another guitar player out and they're vocalist out
there with them, how about John.
Speaker 2 (55:36):
They don't they don't need another guitar player because John
five is he's one of the best out there right now.
Speaker 4 (55:41):
He's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (55:43):
Or we have another guy you want to see him.
Speaker 4 (55:45):
And Richie Cotson there two wing together and.
Speaker 3 (55:50):
They or put put a keyboard player out there and
just do like there are the rhythm parts where it's
not really out front, you know, and have him be
a background singer too.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
Something like that.
Speaker 3 (56:04):
Yeah, the girls, because they do the girl things. But
are the girls really singing Motley Crue?
Speaker 4 (56:12):
I don't think those girls, I don't care if they're singing.
Speaker 3 (56:16):
Oh they're very entertaining, I must say, but I think
they're singing to tracks, and in fact I know they are.
Forget the tracks, just sing Motley Crue was great when
they didn't use that stuff. But maybe they just And
there's no there's things out there. Some people are saying
Nikki's not even playing bass.
Speaker 4 (56:34):
No, I've heard and Tom's not playing drums.
Speaker 1 (56:38):
That would be sad.
Speaker 2 (56:39):
I've seen video where somebody's hitting the high hat his
account off and he's not even sitting behind the drums.
Speaker 4 (56:47):
And then here it's oh, man, come.
Speaker 1 (56:51):
On, but.
Speaker 3 (56:55):
Right, I think I think the show is going to
I mean, just with those three, those three name bands,
I think that's going to sell out.
Speaker 4 (57:02):
Yeah, I'll try two hundred bucks.
Speaker 3 (57:05):
Yeah, I'm not spending two hundred bucks for that. Would
I go for twenty, maybe thirty? I go for thirty.
Speaker 2 (57:12):
I'd probably go for fifty or sixty, you know, because
I love extreme and Tesla's good, Tessa's always great.
Speaker 3 (57:22):
Yeah, yeah, would I drive two hundred miles to go
see it. No, would I drive thirty Yeah, I drive
thirty miles to pay at thirty Bucks for it?
Speaker 1 (57:33):
I would, but i'd probably.
Speaker 4 (57:35):
I'm going to Baltimore because I know my brother and
his sons would want to go.
Speaker 3 (57:40):
Yeah, if you've never seen them, you should go. I
think here. I think they're playing in Long Beach, which
is basically almost Orange County, and that's with a traffic
that's going to take you an hour and thirty from
where I'm at.
Speaker 1 (57:55):
Yeah, I'm not going.
Speaker 3 (57:57):
I'm not going to Long Beach to see something I've
already seen before.
Speaker 4 (58:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (58:01):
Oh wow, It'll depend on what it is. Whether my
nephews can go. Yeah, Well, one nephews at Columbia University
in New York.
Speaker 1 (58:11):
So where's the other one?
Speaker 2 (58:14):
He's at University of Maryland. I think Baltimore campus. So
he's right.
Speaker 4 (58:18):
He in his apartment.
Speaker 2 (58:21):
If you go up to the top, you can go
out on the out on their deck and you can
look into the Orioles Stadium. Camp cool a little there,
but dangerous. Yeah, it's it's not the best part of town.
But his apartments really cool.
Speaker 3 (58:39):
So why did you choose that campus and not the
regular Maryland campus.

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.
