Speaker 1 (00:21):
Welcome back to the podcast That Rock's weekly podcast that
talks about news in the world of rock, metal, alternative
and everything in between.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
My name is Luke, my name is Alex, and my
name is Rowan.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
And my screen is bonkers because I forgot I'm streaming that.
There we go. Hope you're all doing well on this
lovely Wednesday, November nineteenth is when we're streaming this. Hope
you're all had a good week from this past week.
We have Rowan a location at so in the heart
of a festival or concert right now, something like that.

(00:54):
We have Rowan Ronan. Yeah, so Rowan, we'll have a
little bit of a different vibe. However, he'sppy that he
was able to pop in just in time.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
Alex has happy that finish like white as it started.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
There you go. I'm happy that Alex also is rocking
the orange. It's a good color.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yes, my wife was rocking like a bluish purple on stream.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
See.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Rowan and I don't do fun color stuff. We just
show up likely what got out of bed.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
So it's nice to have my hair it's like exactly
like this.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
It's nice to have one person that actually does try
to have a presentation. It actually is nice.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Hurt boys, I know what, I know what the word is.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
That's not the issue. So thank you so much. Everyone.
Please get it up to fifty likes on the live
chat and we will play one round of festival Rock
or Flop where we book a random festival of at
least four bands. Also any super chance of ten dollars
or more. We already got one. Thank you. We'll get
their own dedicated festival. If we get enough super chance
of idiomount, we'll add an extra band to its festival. Finally,

(01:55):
I want to tell all you Steve's in the chat. Yes,
you're all called Steve's. That's your name. That's all what
you all decide on. You're a bunch of Steves. I
want to tell everyone here listening, make sure to like
comments and subscribe and ring the bell. I was confirmed
by another media friend of mine that YouTube is using
less stuff and I looked into it later. YouTube is

(02:15):
really pushing that stuff again like big time. So get
used to your favorite YouTuber saying that phrase repeatedly again
on every video. The cheese the YouTube cheese. So everyone's
talking about mega death. Yeah, there's a lot to get
into Steves. The Steves have a lot of megadeath discourse
going already, goodness, The.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
Stieves are very interested in where I am. I'm at work, guys,
or I'm at my office.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
All right, you couldn't figure that out. Steve's really Steve's
one is.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
Saying is rowing inside of an interrogation room.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
Yeah, I have a cop right across the right, across
the table from me. He's nice enough to let me
do this. You know, I was a charge of manslaughter earlier.
So yeah, hopefully we'll beat the charges I got. I
got Bob Oden kirgis my law, so I'm pretty confident.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Uh, everyone else, I hope you're all doing well and
hope you're all having a great week. Should we jump
into it? Are we prepared? Because I have the quotes
and they're they paint a new light of delusion I
did not know we had to worry about with one
Dave Mistaine, Does that make sense? Woof? Yeah, and that's

(03:25):
an accurate way to say it. Let me share my
screen with my friends here so they can see what
I'm doing well, bam bam. Amongst all the news of
Dave mis Daine and Meganeth, the new album Final Tour,
Dave mis Daine wants to go to the moon.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
Literally.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
I could not have made that up if I tried,
because I didn't think Dave mis Daine would have any interest.
He's barely a step up above flat earther. Unfortunately, However,
it's true. I'll be reading the quotes in segments and
we'll be discussing them as intellectually as possible. David Stain
has a lofty goal for the location to make it
as final concert Space as a ride up from Loudwire

(04:05):
over this interview with Metal Hammer, I'm not doing an impression.
I hope we'll be playing up in space. I think
that will be a really fitting climax. And I'm not
talking about on the side as a vomit comet, A
gig on the moon, a full moon landing, that would
be cool. Thoughts everyone, anyone?

Speaker 2 (04:23):
I want to vomit comet.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
You're worried about that.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
I want to know how do you hold a concert
on the moon, because I can't imagine you were going
to be in a space suit playing guitar. I feel
like that'd be very difficult, would really be able to
kind of be accurate.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
On the fine I feel like, once you get up there,
that's the least of his problems.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
I'm thinking, like Austin Powers and Moon Bubble.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
It's terified moon camping and they just go out there
like the big tank moon tents. I gotcha. For those wondering,
The vobit comet is a nickname for a special aircraft
that flies roller coaster like parabola to stimulate weightlessness. So
it's like one of those fake things. You know what,
even if he did that, I'd be like, I guess

(05:10):
if that's what you want. But no, he wants NASA
or SpaceX or whatever else to fly him, his band
and his crew to the Moon and perform the last
Meganov show ever on the Moon, making the Moon Metal Again.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
How does how do fans get to that show?

Speaker 2 (05:32):
It's not Dave Mustein's problem.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
No, it's not. You know, he's trying to sell tickets
for the Moon. Oh he tried to sell tickets to that.
Don't get that to us, the rovers or whatever, yes,
like because then they have to set up cameras up
there too and like record it all, so they need
recording crew and like tech crew up there. Those limited
flights to the Moon usually don't have a ton of people,
let alone extra crate amps, wiring gigs, studio gym. They

(06:00):
don't usually have that stuff with them.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Man, it is twenty twenty five. It is all di
and laptops these days. Come on, not taking a full
stack to the moon.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
My wife just chimed in, forget a fortnite concert. We're
bypassing that and going straight for the moon. Even if
you did a fortnite concert, we'd all roll our eyes,
go eh, fine whatever, No, No, he's not done. I
saw they set up a bunch of celebrities into space.
They're talking about the Katy Perry flight, you know, and

(06:30):
I thought, well, of them, why not me? You know,
I'm just watching how that all progresses. I know Elon
Musk and Richard Bronson were working on interstellar travel. I
think people are going to be traveling to space a
lot sooner than you think. This is a sixty something
year old man who saw Katy Perry go to space
for eleven minutes and thought I could do that and

(06:51):
make it cool.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
Well it's not just that I can do that. I
can play like, what a two hour concert with that?

Speaker 1 (07:00):
Oh he would play the classics. He would play a
lot of it. He would try to play as much
as he could up there.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
I am very upset with the fact that my mind
is picturing Dave Mustain floating around in a little you know, discover.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
The Door.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeahs Sinatra playing playing flooding me to the moon. That's
what I'm picturing right now, and I'm not happy about it.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Did you guys ever see rocket Man the movie with
Harlan Williams. It's a it's a it's a PG Disney movie,
live action late nineties. No, no, not that one. No, no,
Rocketman all one word.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
No.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
It came out the late nineties. It was made by
Disney with NASA. It was legit funny. But it's like
the astronauts, uh that we're going to go to the
next moon landing and then going to go to Mars,
or they were to go to Mars. Excuse me, the
first man's flight to Mars and what are their star
astronauts couldn't make it, so they picked the goofiest, wacky
side guy, but he's a genius also and shenanigans in

(08:00):
that type of movie. This is what this feels like.
The metal version of that. They're gonna try to send
Dave Mustaine. I can't imagine like Dave Mustaine's gonna lean
over and try to tell the astronauts how to fly
the rocket. That type of stuff's gonna happen up there.
It's gonna be it's gonna be weird.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
So I just think it's hilarious that we all have
kind of different visions of this. You're thinking Rocketman, which
I've not seen, but I kind of want to know
what your picture is it is worth. I'm over here
thinking Austin Power's Moon Bubble and Nutty Professor too.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
When I didn't see the sequel. I always saw the first.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
So it's like a it's like a spoof scene of
Armageddon and he accidentally he's got to go blow up
a pomet that's gonna hit Earth, but instead he accidentally
puts the bomb on the moon and he blows up
the whole moon.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
You guys keep rever seeing movies that were out before
I was even born.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
You've seen movies before you were born. Don't give us
that as an argument.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
Uh uh. I've never been allowed to watch it Ruby before.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
The year nineteen ninety nine. No, that's not picturing.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
I'm picturing it would be like he would try to
do like Romstein's America music video where he be in
the rest event are just dead guy in the full
space ban gear. But it's just gonna be impossible to
play instruments with between the gravity and also just having
like these giant hands like myths in where your hands are.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
See the dome idea. You're right, you're totally right. They're
not gonna be like he can't practice in an actual nastuse. Yeah,
but so you're right. Alice's dome theory does make more sense,
but that increases the cost to go up there by
oh tenfold, and it's already not a cheap excursion up there.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
Yeah, and again, how do you how do fans who
want to see the show get there?

Speaker 3 (09:41):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (09:41):
I see my thing. It's gonna be like the during quarantine,
Like during pandemic they had all those private concerts, like
live concerts, like just with no audience the band performing.
It's gonna be like that, like a paper.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
Pul they just livestream the concert.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Or record it and then sell it later. Yes, it's not.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Really like kind of a crappy way to your your fire,
little causer.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
To be Oh he doesn't care. He just wants to
do it. Ooh conspiracy theories.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
No, they didn't, and Davids State already loves his conspiracy
theories about other stuff. It's perfect. He gets a dose
of his own medicine.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
I'm in full circle. Oh man, another quote.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Personally, I'd never want to live on a planet away
from the world we live in. People were talking about
a trip to Mars, but all I can imagine is
somebody's saying, going, oh, I forgot my toothbrush. That would
be the longest flight ever. This is the same interview.
This is the same man who wants this as a process.
By the way, everyone on board still everyone does everyone

(10:39):
feel a little.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Bit dumber, just a little bit. Yeah, no, you no,
you're right.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Your exasperation and your thought processes are all accurate for
what I just said. I have it on screen, by
the way, is so that way everyone knows I did
not make that up. So he was watching Katie air
in space and thought I could do that. Also, man,
I would want to live up there though. Think about

(11:06):
it if I lost my toothbrush. And this is what's
going on at the end of Megadeth for their final
album coming Out next year, be early next year, and
the final tour, which also we found out, is not
gonna be a one and done thing. It's gonna be
massive expectations of three to five years, kind of like

(11:26):
Slayers Farewell Tour, not their final performances, but Farewell Tour
was like a five leg, two to three year tour.
I don't hate that, but five years is a lot.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
Now, Yeah, that's gonna be. That's gonna be a saying
that's gonna be rough on the body. I can imagine
be on the road for that long.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Keep in mind, they're already gonna be playing with Iron
Maiden in North America, which is a good tour. I'm
happy about that. But they already have dedicated like contractual
sign ups for supports and then more touring, so they
could just say this is a farewell that that's ongoing.
So it's kind of a weird thing. It's not the
Kiss version where it's they just keep doing farewells. It's

(12:07):
just one long goodbye. Does that make sense? Am I am?
I I think I've I get what he's going for.
I just feel like I'm talking gibberish because I'm trying
to be cokate with stain.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
Now, the Slayer analogy is very accurate. It's gonna be
a it's just yeah, this is the farewell tour, but
it's gonna be a long tour, you know, which I
can understand and I can I commend to really give
you give people the last chance to get go see Megadeth.
Just like again, five years is gonna be tough on
the body, and just like stupid comments.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Like oh, we wanted our last show to be performed
on the Moon. It's like, like, dude, come on, man, seriously,
you you just look them like an ass.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
At this point, I think a long tour thing is cool,
and I think that's a good way to go out
because then you're making sure that you're reaching as many
of your fans as possible. It's not like, oh, farewell
tour West Coast only correct.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
That sucks.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
There's the meme of like what a world tour means.
They'll show us in Canada, Japan, Europe, but like no Africa,
maybe Australia, no South America. It's like, it's not the world.
Slayer did a good job of that long tour covering
the world. They really did so, at least if that's
the plan. I'm fine with it. That's one thing I'm
totally behind. I just don't know about him touring that

(13:22):
long while preparing for spacewalks and making sure he's travel
ready to go insouth the atmosphere.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
I don't think the spaceball, I don't think the whole
space thing is even going to happen. I think he's
going to maybe at most he's going to approach NASA
or Elon Musk or whoever else offers this, and they're
going to laugh in his space. He it's like, we
can't practically do this.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
I don't know, man, you astes, you stuck up the
Elon Musk enough. He'll probably try to do something. However,
for those wondering, Dave Mustaine sixty four years old, a
touch older than they usually have NASA astronauts, a touch
I mean.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Like William Shatner went to space and he's like ninety.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah, that's also a little different because he didn't go
on the Moon trying to perform a concert.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
You're assuming that he would that anyone even humored this idea.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
If Davis Daine has his way, yes, and also Meca
death fans do whatever Dave wants, like the die hards. Yeah,
the die hards. I say this someone who likes Megadeth music. Okay,
don't get that twisted either. I just I don't know, Man,
what am I supposed to really else say about this?

Speaker 2 (14:34):
I don't want to.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
I don't know if I should keep reading quotes.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Worse, I think we've already got through most of the mud.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Yes, yes, the worst is over. The final album, the
self title, will come out early next year. Two new
songs are out right now. The late latest song, I
Don't Care came about last week, which musically I thought
was pretty good, but lyrically it sounded like a thirteen
year old or Detention wrote it. I don't care, mom
and dad, I don't care what people think. I don't

(15:05):
care about the system and the rules that for three minutes.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
I gotta be honest. Megadeath is one of those bands
where it's like I have a cutoff for like what
I listened to whenever I do listen to them, Like
I don't really touch much stuff after the two thousands.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
If I get what, I get what you're saying. Yeah,
I get what you're saying.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
You weren't even yet row in.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Yeah you got allowed to listen to stuff before you
were born. Didn't we already establish that.

Speaker 4 (15:30):
Yeah, No, it's like you're not allowed to watch or
listen to any media like coming out.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
Like you got to like in school for history classes.
I'm not allowed to learn about this. This was before
I was bored to just walk out.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
I don't know anything past two thousand and one, like really.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
Not even not even two thousand. Two thousand was just
too much for you to handle. Time before the problem. Boys,
that's it's self focused. There were people in time before me,
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
That's them with kids these days. Yeah, back in my day,
time was a thing.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
I'll joke you a side going back.

Speaker 4 (16:06):
I feel like most people when they talk about MegaNet
they really only talk about like the eighties and nineties stuff.
No one really touches like anything of this century. Sure
can't be alone in that.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
I mean, that's fair. People talk about that with meg
Metallica even, but Metallica more just they don't they make
fun of it. Metallica is still a household juggernaut name. Yeah,
Megadeth has less mess, they have less material that stands
out after the turn of the century.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
Yeah, is that fair?

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Yeah? I mean that sounds right, yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
Because I mean like Metallica, I mean like Saint Anger
came out in two thousand and one and we all
know it's bad, but people talk about it.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yes, that's very true. Yes, uh is Dave just fed
up of naming tours and someone else says, so he's
gonna pull a kiss except they pulled off that for
twenty years. No, I think I like the idea. They're
going for the Slayer route that is more respectable. We
still don't know kiss is gonna because they've already announced
two performances now, one I actually agree with. By the way,

(17:05):
they actually got to get together perform again and honor
based freely.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
That's that's nice.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
That's great, you do that, that's awesome. But they're still
planning their kiss at land locked at sea Las Vegas
cruise in a hotel thing.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
But one off shows I think we can all commit.

Speaker 4 (17:22):
It's just like when it's like, oh, yeah, we're doing
a residency or we're doing like a tour on a
cruise or something like that.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
Okay, it's like, okay, so you didn't go away.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
Yeah we're not technically touring.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, uh huh, you're just you're having to come to
us in our hotel that we're making you pay way
more for.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
Like, okay, all right.

Speaker 3 (17:39):
We just happen to be here. If you want to
come and see us.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
Yeah, we're is here. If you want to book a room, yeah,
uh huh, you're just like bye now. Goodness, So the
good news. I do want Megadeath's tour to go well,
I really do. If this is the true send off
and it's years and it covers the world, that makes
sure all the fans are covered, you do it perfectly.
That's exactly what it is. I don't want to see

(18:03):
a space disaster like the Challenger, but with Megadeth inside.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
Oh god, you know, that would be like the news
of this of the year, maybe even the decade, where
it's like meganev goes into space, their rocket blows up.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
That would be insane and they all blame Lars for
some reason.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
Oh yeah, Dave's son goes on a podcast, goes on
Joe Rogan.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
It's like, yeah, you know, Lars, he's the one he
really screw over.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
Yeah, that's the exact podcast it would be on. Also, Okay,
and final joke before we move on, because this is
the one joke that everyone's told. I've heard it on
radio stations and everywhere else. Meganet's gonna go to the
moon and then hopefully they leave them there. Like literally,
I'm not getting dozens of stations and channels and everything

(18:51):
have made that identical joke.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
At least one.

Speaker 1 (18:56):
At least one up it. You know, at least go, hey,
they're gonna leave him there and all the weather will
flying away. They're gonna play Metallica's like Metallica blasting and
so that way, that's the last thing I hear.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
At least go a step farther thing, something different.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
Yeah, exactly, they blast Master of Puppets while he's like
swagging his arms away from me. You know, that type
of things.

Speaker 3 (19:17):
Glad to leave for a sick because I was so bad.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
Remember when they played Master of Puppets when they were
honoring and.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
They want the Grammy when they want the Grammy? Yes,
I remember, Oh my god.

Speaker 5 (19:26):
You know what.

Speaker 4 (19:27):
Here's the thing I hate Dave in the sense that
he doesn't shut up about Metallica. But at the same
time too, if if I was in his shoes there,
I've been like I am in hell or something.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Oh like, if he goes on the rocket, would he
still talk about Yeah, suck at Lars, look where I
am not? Like he can't even like put.

Speaker 4 (19:44):
Every time I see an interview of this guy pop
on on Instagram or whatever he's it's always him talking
about Metallica and I'm like, dude, this is why everyone
clowns on you because he can't.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
Let it go.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Alex, have you seen Mega Death live?

Speaker 2 (19:58):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (19:59):
I have a few time. Also, it really is focusing
around Dave. So they're the.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
Only band in the Big Four that I have not
seen live, and I do want to see them live
just because I love Resting Peace, I love Peace Cells,
and it would just be cool to kind of just
say I've seen all the Big Four at the same
time too. It's like a Megadeath is kind of like
is probably the last band of the Big Four that
I actually like, Like if there was like a totem
pole of how I rank them.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
See if we're going classics, I really do like Megadeth.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Sis. Yeah, Pieces and Piece is a true classic thrash
album and a time where thrash was changing and they said, no,
we're going to keep doing this again, right, It's a
Megadeth and David Stain nailed it. I don't want to
hear that on the NASA channel and on like all
those space exploration channels, you know, count down to extension. Yeah,

(20:51):
so we should move on. We've had enough space talk
for Dave Mustain and I. It sucks that that's the thing.
So but it is. Let's talk about good stuff. We
don't have anything flat out awful or terrible or that
we need to talk about this week, which is good.
One thing that happened this past weekend was the last

(21:11):
Warped tour of the year. They're gonna do it again
next year, also in Orlando. I'm gonna have this play
just a little bit because other people did footage, like
media makers and stuff. One thing I want to talk
about for Warped to Orlando. As the footage goes on
and they show bands and the half pipes and motocross
and skateboard and pits, here's the thing they did the grounds. Well.
I was so worried because like they've had Warped Tour

(21:32):
at that area for years, but it's been a long
time since. Well, they did redid the whole ground.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Sport.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
They got the big stages there, like the other two
Warped tours. They did it right. Hats off to them.
I've heard many of people complain that Day two was much, much,
much better than Day one. I can't really like argue
your feelings on that Day two. It had a data remember,
make their big announcement, Big old Album, Volume Two's coming
next year, and they did it at their glorified hometown

(21:59):
show because they're like hour and a half away from Ocala,
so good things overall. Did happen at the Orlando Warped Tour.
I put this up, something could happen in Florida there,
I said it, Okay, everyone there, So we don't know headliners,
we don't know lineups for the next year's Warped Tour.

(22:19):
My question for Alex and Rowan and everyone else in chat, Yeah,
someone just said no more Pooh River. That was the
DC one. Pooh River was DC tech problems. Were Los
Angeles looking at what happened this year with Warped Tour
and how they brought it back. If the lineup was
at least something worth checking out, like bands you did

(22:40):
care about, would you be willing to travel to one
of the Warped tours whichever's closer to your choice, Alex,
would you be willing to go to one of.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
Them if the lineup is solid?

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Yeah, okay, and that's fine, that's fair. Rowan, how about you,
Oh yeah, definitely.

Speaker 3 (22:55):
That goes for like pretty much every festival. The only
big issue is just again, travel with money.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
Sure time, and that's you're really close to DC. So
would you go again if the lineup was different?

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Absolutely? I said that before too. I think it was
a worst case scenario for the DC one because it
was also the same weekend as the Parade Slash protest,
and so much of DC and getting into and out
of DC was shut down completely, like highway exits were
completely closed off. So I would go again, And I
said that before. I didn't love how everything ran, but

(23:27):
at the same time I could tell people were enjoying it.
And if the lineup's different, yes, I would go. That's
me though.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
But the thing is, though, that's extreme convenience for me
where I am. I would not have to get a flight.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Yeah, it's super easy too, but it would have to
be a good lineup, right exactly.

Speaker 4 (23:46):
Yeah, Once you start having to consider like, oh yeah,
I got to take a plane, I got to find
a hotel. I got to take time off of work.
That's when like, yeah, I really had to kind of
like weigh out the pros and comns of it all.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
Sure, and I will say this, people can complain praise
warp Tour wall the highs and lows have had over
the decades, Warped Tour all three weekends this year. Whatever
problems they had, they still ran. They still went through
with it. Okay, some people loved it, some people hated it.

(24:18):
They established they can execute it though. I hope this
is the best case scenario for a learning experience and
they can go, Okay, this went really well, this was
a failure. We have to improve next year. Because they
had the same three venues, same three cities, same relative timeframe,
there's no reason they cannot make it bigger and better
next year, especially if it's going to be two days

(24:39):
again like it was this year. Am I dreaming too much?
Because we all know the festival situations for other companies
and they just kind of go with the flow and
like whatever, as long as we're making money.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
I think if they learn from what they did this year,
sure for next year it should be solid.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
Well, this is a big return.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
It's like, hopefully this means that, like it'll just get
better and better every subsequent year.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
We have a lot of hope and optimism on the
podcast That Rocked. If you haven't listened, sometimes that pays off.
Sometimes we learn a lesson ourselves. Anyone in the chat,
if you went to any of the Warped tours, let
us do what you thought in live chat or the
comments Steves, let us know Steve's at Warped Tour. Will
make that a thing too. Next year we'll let people
wear hold up signs say I'm a Steve and just

(25:27):
confuse everyone there. That will not be the weird That
will not be the weirdest sign it Warped Tour, by
the way, not even close.

Speaker 4 (25:35):
If we could just even have like just like ten
people or even five, just they're all spread out around
the crowd and it's all the same sign, that would
make our great footage.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
If I knew there could be a Steve meet up
at a warp tour, I would I would fly to
that one just to make it a big event. The
only problem is the long beach one you're walking even
if you're parking like you got to park it then
walk aways because it's Long Beach and then Orlando is Orlando.
Oh so you know. Then again, then we could have

(26:04):
the Steves takeover Universal like Halloween Horror Night's Steve's takeover
Magic Kingdom. That could be fun too.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
That would be fun.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Mm so interesting, go for it.

Speaker 4 (26:16):
I was on a date last weekend and the girl
I was with, she's also really heavily into the scene,
and we were laughing and choking about how horrible the
Asking Alexandria performance was.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
Were they at the Orlando one?

Speaker 3 (26:29):
The serious question?

Speaker 1 (26:30):
Okay, that's well, you know what, Orlando has a step up. Yeah, yeah,
I'm glad you bonded, though you could bond over Asking
Alexandria's bad DC performance and then bad, confusing, lost Long
Beach performance. So funny enough.

Speaker 4 (26:46):
She she told me that Data Remember is actually her
favorite band. She's seen them a lot, and she went
to warped to her a lot. So I shed call
her see how she feels about the big announcement. Yeah,
I know, she's going crazy over it.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
That's a good follow up and also a good way
to introduction. See everyone listening. You can get a second
gate without being creepy about it. You can actually ask questions.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
When the count.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
So I'm excited about that romantic Yeah. By the way,
she might be the only lady there. I don't know
what to tell you, man that a cattle decap show
she might be. So as we move on, let us
know your Warped Tour thoughts. I do hope Warped Tour
continues to see success. They clearly did this year. Whether

(27:32):
you liked it, whether you didn't like it, problems faults
like the head liked the lineup, didn't like the lineups,
like the headlighters didn't like the headliners. It still works.
So that's we're pointing out. Speaking of festivals and Florida.
Welcome to Rockville twenty twenty six. Full lineup got announced.
That was actually a decent segue for me. Okay, even

(27:54):
Alex went on that he just got cut out. I think,
so you know.

Speaker 2 (27:56):
What, just mouthing it.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Oh yeah, well, you know, I'll take that one for
credit for me. So I talked to some of these
two about it a little bit, and I'll let you
guys get your thoughts first. Welcome Rockville, May seventh through
the tenth in Daytona Beach, Florida, headlined by Guns n' Roses,
Foo Fighters, Bring Me the Horizon and My Chemical Romance
each on the respective days Thursday through Sunday.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
Lots of varieties.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
Similar to Sonic Temple, there's a lot of pros, there's
a lot of cons. That's just me. I'll give my
thoughts more particular on that. Alex's thoughts on Welcome to
Rockfield twenty twenty six.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
I feel like we are seeing a trend on the
big festivals we've seen so far. Okay, it's very in
line with what we've seen already for stuff getting announced
next year. Yes, I mean the Guns and Roses and
bring Me the Horizon, which that bring me the Horizon.
I'm all for it. I'm super stoked to see them
at the top of the bill for multiple big festivals.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Yes, I agree, and we know they can deliver on
a headline spot like this. They already did it with
Louder than Life Fighters. The return to a headline spot
after their hiatus, I'm fined with that because they've headlined
rock Fields before. My Chemical Romance is going to be
a spectacle next year. Guns n' Roses is the return

(29:12):
to make up their performance that got rained out in
twenty twenty two or something like that. Okay, which is interesting. Rowan,
What do you think about Rockville twenty twenty six.

Speaker 4 (29:23):
Yeah, honestly, I can't really complain too much about any
of the headliners. I feel like they're all like big
enough that like it makes sense really again, like Guns
and Roast is like one of the ones where I'm
about but I've made my thoughts clear on them, honestly.
Like I mean, like with any festival, there's a lot
of bands I love. There's a lot of bands I
like it, and there's a lot advance I don't care
for it, but sure, when you have this many people

(29:45):
on the bill, you're bound to get some.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
Acts you don't care about or just not.

Speaker 4 (29:49):
Like. There's a lot here that I do like, though,
and so I can't really complain about this. If I can,
I would.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
Go right exactly And that's very fair too. And this
is very close to Sound Exemple. There's a lot overlap
with Sonic Temple. There's like me personally, you guys feel
however you want, Thursday is my I'll fly it on Thursday.
I can miss that one, but I would I'd hang
out Friday through Sunday. Have no issues with it and
find a lots to enjoy. I mean, Saturday alone. People

(30:17):
know I'm a star, a die Head star set fan.
But there's also Avatar, Dragon Force, Apocalyptica, Lamb of God,
Bring Me the Horizon on the headline spot. There's something
for everyone on this and Friday has Turnstile on a
way higher spot along with Parkway Drive doing the full
production stuff Friday.

Speaker 4 (30:32):
Also it's just a really sick Death Corps lineup too,
just like Sonic Temple, which you know I'd be happy about.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
I think the coolest thing about this is every single
day has something that I would be stoked to see,
which is not typical for these big massifestors. Some days
I'm like, ding, that day is kind of ass this
is not the case.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
There are days like that, And I said, Thursday's a
day I could skip, even though there are still bands
I would like to see on Thursday.

Speaker 3 (30:57):
For sure.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
I like Death Clock obviously, Snike Hills puts on a
fun show. Amana Mark's gonna have the Viking Ship, but
I could skip that day because they have Godsmack and
Sane and five figure Death Punch and the audience is
gonna smell like oh how do I put this politely?
I don't know what's a good way to turn this one.
Cut Light, most Energy, Monster Energy and a biker bar

(31:21):
bathroom that refuses to be cleaned.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
I was thinking of seeping out of the pores.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
Coors Light monstering goodness.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
Someone made.

Speaker 4 (31:33):
Someone makes a cocktail out of a Monster Energy and
a Cores Light leaves it on the sun in some
trashy trailer park.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
All right, Steve, what is the name of our new
drink at Welcome to Rockville, the Rockville Exclusive? What's the name?
Steve's half Miller, half Cores Light, half Monster Energy, no ice,
it's served warm. What is the drink? Because it's Florida,
all the.

Speaker 3 (31:53):
Drinks are whatever name it is.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
We are passing. We'll give you credit, like we'll give
you a share on the title. But yeah, we're taking
over on this too. No, we don't want to insult
our Steve's like that. That that that really would set
the Steves back decently. But come on now, the Welcome
the Rockville logo on a cup and the bartender like
the Monster Energy girl, She's pouring the Monster and a

(32:17):
Coors Light together at the same time into the cheap
plastic cup.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
Here you go, Sean taffer Is, Like he's like standing
over her shoulders, not.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Trying not to throw up while while they're serving. Yeah. Absolutely,
Like that's the one that over the lage. Yeah, that's
the one that actually pushes them over. It's like, hurry up,
I gotta see stain.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
Oh wait, what am I talking about?

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Eric Lewis would absolutely take that drink on stage with him.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
Eric Lewis, you can give that guy rubbing alcohol and
he'll probably drink it.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
I'm just thinking that's probably be the drinking like tries
to champ, you know how like Metallica has their whiskey
and like they sell it at the d w p S.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
Yeah, monster, the joke. What do you mean there's a
drink named Steve. This is not what I know.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
No, No, we cannot call it to Steve. That's off
the that's off the Tata.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
I forgot about that.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
The fire Ball, the Florida Man Cocktail, the body Spray,
fire Ball, tropical mustard, the world.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
No. I don't like that one. I hate how that's
so poetically perfect. It's so gross.

Speaker 4 (33:26):
Okay, okay, okay, I got an idea, I go I
got an idea, what if we call it then.

Speaker 3 (33:32):
That's the name of the drink. To say it like that.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Well, two things I want to point out I have
as someone who's been at seven Welcome the rock Fills.
Number One, don't drink that. Drink water. Don't drink monster,
Drink water. Drink water. It's Daytona in the beginning of summer.
Drink water, you morons. Number Two, if the day it
ends up being something like that with a monster and

(34:00):
wurs together and it's the tropical mustard, call the cops.
Just you're gonna know that that's the type of person
that's not gonna get it out of the system in
time before they get to their car, So just call
the cops as soon as you see it. Served back
to the music, there's a lot on here that's good.
I've never been to Rockville as it's been in Daytona.

(34:23):
For me personally, I would still hit up Sonic Temple.
That's a me thing. I would not sway away anyone
that wanted to go to this because there's so much
good stuff on here. So that's just me. Any other
thoughts before we move on.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
Yeah, pretty good lineup?

Speaker 1 (34:39):
Yeah. Yeah, And also final thing, there's a variety in tone.
They got death core, they got pop punk, they got
the new stuff, they got the old stuff. They did
a good job with variety.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
Again, there's nothing where you can really come pump complain
about MM.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
Here's hoping people. Everyone is Steve's Please do not spread
word that we made a new drink on the podcast
The Rocks.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
Hey, Steves, one of you guys make a video where
you mix this and review it and will endorse it.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
I do not.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
You can endorse something on a new podcast that you'll
be on.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
Wha off the script?

Speaker 1 (35:25):
Yeah that a lot of life has ncr and Maid
confirmed that. Yeah, that is also true. See I always
think it was gonna be Iron Maiden. But they got
guns and roses at Rockville. The thing is guns and roses.
We make fun. They have to make up their show
because one of them got rided out a few years ago.
That I at least get. I get that. Also, guns
n' roses in Daytona, Florida is bread and butter. Guys,

(35:47):
it's all old angry biker retirees wanted to sing guns
and roses.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
Yeah, they're gonna pay retire money.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Absolutely, you said four to one money that our generation
is never gonna get.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
And we're paying for exactly, yes.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
Exactly, tropical mustard would sell. As we move on speaking
of boy, this is a good segue for those John
Oliver fans. We got one of the best, most heaviest
metal cameos ever on John Oliver when talking about NPR
and public broadcasting. John Oliver did a whole special and
they featured one of the interviews that we've talked about too,

(36:27):
blowth Are from Gwar. Where'd it go? Dang it? I
had the clip up.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
Go like three and a half missing. There you go.

Speaker 5 (36:36):
You're not gonna find that on network television. And not
to mention Sesame Street. I mean, look, this is this
is a you hear people in the audience laughing. I
can't play much more else it'll get ding for copyright.
That is Bloor in his full gear that I will
not describe on the podcast unless we get kicked off
and demonetized, talking about NPR about how he found live
music and heavy music on PBS and local public broadcasting.

(37:00):
He's also talking about Sesame Street, one of the most evil,
vile aliens, and mister Rogers talking about this.

Speaker 1 (37:06):
Yeah, you know what was awesome though, Oh sorry, was
all right, go ahead, go.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
Ahead, okay.

Speaker 4 (37:13):
Yeah. What was awesome though, is that right after that clip,
John Oliver named jop Blowthar and Gwar and he had
liked this awesome little cube liked little segment about like
clows Art being on mister Rogers.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
Yeah, I did see that.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
Yeah, it's just cool that we got that. He named
job Gwar John Oliver. That's awesome.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
That's a big deal. Good that metal in any fashion
is getting into the mainstream with John Oliver. So, for
those who are not aware, John Oliver does a lot
of stuff for charity for signing off for John Oliver's junk.
They sell a lot of stuff for benefiting public media
right now. The main website has tons of stuff, including
and actual painting by uh, what's his name, Bob Ross.

(37:54):
Bob Ross. Excuse me. I was thinking bobs name thousand
names in my head at all times, and I was
thinking the wrong letters for Ross. I'll forget anything.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
I was looking at Russell Crow's jockstrap right next to
it that's trying to sell right now, and I got
distracted by the Shenanigans.

Speaker 3 (38:13):
Look at this thing underneath Bob Ross.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
It's cut off. It is thankfully cut off right below
on the YouTube feed, so I don't have to censor it,
but I cannot scroll down anymore. Yeah, so why does
this allt matter? For all these amazing stuff they're auctioning
out to help fund PBS and public broadcasting and everything else.
NPR Blowthar signed a bidet and it's already current bid
it's five thousand dollars. Someone actually, well, the bids still open,

(38:43):
so you might have to pay a little more if
I get my hands on it. Yeah, live on the podcast, Yes,
come on, and yes, the Berserker Blowthar has actually signed
a real bidet, current bid with sixty five bids it already.
That's a lot of war support currently at five thousand dollars.

(39:07):
The Day's signed by the Sport Blowthar for American Heavy
Battle Bank War. As discussed on last week Tonight, bloth
Is Blowthar is a big fan of public broadcasting, great
such as mister Rodgers of Sesame Street. Despite the way
he looks, the Day is a color pure wash him
three hundred model with a chrome handle and a quiet
closed lid to prevent slamming. Well, respectfully, we think blow
Clark could use one when talking about a self cleaning

(39:28):
want should I keep going? I feel like the it's
gonna get a little dirtier if I keep going. So,
but yes, for those if you really want to support
NPR PBS and you want a.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
Beday, well, can I ask something?

Speaker 1 (39:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (39:44):
Maybe for the person who buy, for the person who
buys us who who could be either me or you? Luke?
Do we install this and actually use the bidet? Or
do we frame this to insective houses?

Speaker 1 (39:57):
Yeah? I agree. I don't know. It's hard to say
because this is autographed memorabilia that's been on by Gwar
and on the John Oliver Show. So it is bitch.

Speaker 4 (40:05):
You know, I'm moving into a new apartment next week.
How hilarious would it be if that's the art piece
in my living room? When I have like a housewarming party,
all my friends and family walk in and there's the
day hanging up on my wall.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
It's like, what the hell? Why do you have this?
It's like, why did you buy furniture?

Speaker 1 (40:25):
You need a bed and a couch? What I said,
why didn't you buy furniture? Rowan, you need a bed
and a couch and its set it's just that.

Speaker 4 (40:35):
It fits all my money. It's like it's between me
and my roommate. It's like the one piece of furniture
in our house. We have no food, we have no fiend.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
They're on the potato bed trend. Come on, what is
the potato bed? It's basically a human sized dog bed.
Do you take a fitted sheet but just have it
like all floppy, and you fill it with pillows and
blankets and then you put another pillar blanket on top
of that and make yourself a giant human sized dog bed.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
That's like quick enough a little kid couch for it,
but for.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
Yep, Yeah, it's yeah, that's what they're doing these days.

Speaker 3 (41:11):
Credit.

Speaker 4 (41:12):
I found a cardboard box, Alex. I'll be sleeping on
that tonight.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (41:16):
Thought you were putting your potato bed on top of
your box row and.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
Sorry, or at least in your box so that we
have a roof, you know.

Speaker 4 (41:24):
Yeah. The realtor goes, it's like, why did you do this?
Why did I sign off on you guys taking this place?

Speaker 1 (41:33):
The least the landlord. Yeah, the land would probably approve,
but you know what, that's the you're if they're paying,
if you're paying rent whatever you want. That's their problem.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
Yeah, it's like we already agree to it, as long
as you get your first of the month.

Speaker 3 (41:46):
Yeah, we'll have this in our room.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
We move on to the bit of unfortunate news. Uh.
Sound Gardens working on a lot of stuff to get
that unreleased Chris Cordell material ready. Sound Gordon's doing a
lot of cool stuff now than the rock and Roll
Hall of Fame Audio Slave not so much. Turns out
that Tom Morello has updated fans of Audio Slaves, saying
there is an album's worth of material for Audio Slave

(42:11):
with Chris Cornell that has never seen the light of day,
but they just can't all get together to get on
the same page and find a way to present it
and finish, like finish the presentation and all that. That sucks.
So yeah, yeah, as someone who was a big Audio
Slave back in the day and still love the band
and everything that they did. They were the perfect supergroup
that was not about ego and not about just a

(42:33):
cash grab. It was real. I would love to hear
what's still like under wraps and what was left behind
and that could come now.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
So yeah, that would be cool.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
We'll see what Also, while Tom Brail's added, maybe another
Rage tour. You did it once and it was the
best concert I've ever seen in my life. Can ats
like that wouldn't be cool again? So we can all dream.
We can all just dream together as we move on.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
Good. Eventually it will happen, though, because they have all
of that material.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
I agree, and like now that the Cornell rights and
stuff with a family that a lot of that's been settled,
a lot like most of that imagine so good.

Speaker 4 (43:15):
I can't imagine to say, keep talking about it, that
they would just say that they would just come out
of the movie like it's not happening, you know, Like
I feel like like he didn't say it's never not happening.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
It's just not happening right now, right time soon.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
Just no plans right now exactly. I don't see them
sitting on it forever though.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
No, And again I at least get why the Sound
Garden camp of things is together, Like they're busy focused
on on all the Sound Guarden stuff that's going to
come out sooner than later for unruzy stuff for that.
So maybe after that's done, focus on Audio Slave, because
there's three guys still willing to do that you know,
so yeah, I don't know, it's like, it's just I

(43:55):
hope it gets that way. Also for a sup like,
I know, super groups going into the rock hall is
not really that big of a thing normally, that's one
that could totally fit the bill. It's going to be
not for many many years, but obviously would totally fit
that bill.

Speaker 4 (44:08):
I don't think the supergroup should avoid you from being
it doesn't.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
There are there have been a few, but it's rare,
you know.

Speaker 3 (44:17):
Yeah, I'm just.

Speaker 4 (44:17):
Saying, like, I hope that's not like a rule or
that's not something they try to like keep out, yeah,
and make if a band makes good music, who gives
a crack who's in it?

Speaker 1 (44:26):
True? I mean that's the attitude for the rock Hall,
for better or worse.

Speaker 2 (44:30):
So well, and Audio Slave has their own fan base
that stands apart from all of the other bands that
people are involved in, so I.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
Think they do.

Speaker 2 (44:38):
Yeah, they can stand on their own.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
For sure, I agree, And that'd be a good tribute
for everything appreciation for stuff like that as well. So
as we move on, we're going to go to now
one of the wealthiest metal bands ever, slip Knot, has
sold the majority stake in their music catalog over one
hundred and twenty million minimum for the contracts publishing are
still all the rights, I should say, not just publishing,

(45:03):
a lot of the rights of whether it's old material
or if it's going forward with new material, whether it's
publishing rights and streaming rights, whether it's partners and stuff.
A lot of that's the nitty gritty and probably a
phone book sized list. But long on the short of it,
Slipknot just made a whole lot of money for selling
the rights of their music to be used to what
is the name of it, Harbor View Equity Partners, and

(45:25):
the band talked about Clown said, this is a name
and a label that's going to help us stand against
the music industry. And coming from Slipknot, who stayed with
the same label for a long time on a underwhelming
deal just to finish it because they said they would,
it's kind of cool to see them get that now.
So it's a big legal mumbo jumbo. All you got

(45:48):
to know is Slipknot can still make music all they
want and keep the rights to it, but they're allowing
a lot of the music to be used as well
to Harbor View Equity Partners, which is the grandparent company
of other distribution and stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (46:01):
Yeah, it's like a media company or something.

Speaker 2 (46:03):
And the way I understand what these guys are doing,
it seems, I mean pretty awesome. They have acquired a
lot of catalogs today, it seems like and because Slipknot
is so culturally and I mean just all around impactful
to the music scene and to fans alike. Right, these guys,
it looks like they want to preserve and amplify, Yes,
what they have already done, which is good.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
So I agree, and I think this is this type
of situation that can help them do that and solidify
where it is so that way it doesn't get moved
around or sold back and forth to others as well.
This is a long running deal they have with Harbor View,
and now I know who to ask for Christmas presents
if they're feeling thrifty because they have a little bit
more money. I'm just saying, if this ever gets back

(46:49):
to you, sir Taylor, Yeah, mister Taylor, remember when I
joked about you with the last meeme like a week ago.
We're looking for a sponsor. I'm not a big sponsor.
Just a sponsor. Okay, that's all. That's all. Thank you.

everyone again. Dance macab was the first song my wife
and I danced to at our wedding. There's video of
it somewhere on It was everyone our age loved it.

(49:43):
The grandparents probably didn't care for it. But that's okay.

Speaker 3 (49:46):

Speaker 1 (49:48):
It really is. It really is. Yeah, So yeah, Mary,

So yeah, Rowan, what albums can we look forward to
on November twenty first, twenty twenty five.

Speaker 3 (53:14):
Gotta be honest, we don't have too much coming in.

Speaker 4 (53:17):
We're getting towards the end of the year now, We're
getting to like that sort of point where a lot
of the major bands and artists are kind of like,
you know, have kind of released their stuff. But we
do have some stuff to be excited about. First, of all,
we have Blood Bown coming out with Field of Swords.
They're a Newish band that are that this is their
debut album. I believe, and again listen to some stuff
of theirs. It's great. I loved it. It's there being

(53:39):
released from Napalm. We got The Pretty Wild releasing, Zero
Point Genesis releasing through Some Marian And finally this is
probably the big one right here, we got Aerosmith and
Young Bluzz ep One More Time coming out.

Speaker 3 (53:53):
I mean, like, I feel like that's really awesome.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
I'm curious about it.

Speaker 4 (53:56):
So beyond just Ozzy, it just feels awesome that like
lot of like a lot of classic rock acts have
just kind of like embraced Young Blood. I just feel
like we kind of like it's just kind of kind
of cool to see like that sort of passing on
the torch.

Speaker 1 (54:08):
It's like whenever we do. That's a good way to
put it as well.

Speaker 3 (54:11):
Yeah, and this, I.

Speaker 4 (54:13):
Mean like this isn't coming out on Friday, but it
came out today, and this is one of my favorite
bands of all time, so screw it, I'm gonna talk
about it. Converge released a new single today, love is
Never Enough, and it's like like they announced a new
album too. I am just I am so hyped about that.
Funny enough, I am not joking. I did not plan
for this. I listened to the Dusk in Us like

(54:36):
full Run last night, and I swear that was not intentional.

Speaker 3 (54:41):
I was just listening to that because I wanted to.

Speaker 4 (54:42):
And then like I wake up the next morning and
I just like look up Converge again and I see
that they release a new single.

Speaker 3 (54:47):
I'm like, no freaking way, It's just like it was
a good day. It was a good morning.

Speaker 1 (54:52):
That's good. We did. Alex and I are going to
funnow you albums we want you to listen to. So
that way those bands released making an album announcement next day. Yay, Yeah,
we have we found we broke the system. We got
some super chats right now from Ellie yeats. What do
you okay? So Elli yet made a whole song parody
about going to the moon? I cannot do the uh

(55:15):
impersonation right now? What do you mean he can't go
to the moon on time? He's got nothing better to do.
If there's a new way to perform on the move,
Dave may be the first in line, but it better
work this time. Oh wait, so it's it's well worded.
Also from Gothic Girl, which from Gothic Girl which aka

(55:38):
Secker Sacker, Gothic Girl, Gothic cat Girl. It's a lot
in this user name, but I approve of it all.
Gothic cat Girl says, oh, stand is there on Welcome
to Rockville? You mean that Aaron Lewis leaves early show? Well,
if they're serving tropical mustards, yes, he is going to
leave early, right. I don't know how that man, that

(56:00):
name and that drink is gonna haunt this podcast.

Speaker 2 (56:03):
Yay, thank you, Thanks Steves.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
You really knocked it out of the park with that one.
Coober's Light and Monster served Warm in Daytona. What have
we done? Also, it was my turn for song of
the Week. I choose Moontooth's Eyes. This is the band
that is awesome proggy rock but super shreddy. This is

(56:26):
the fun, upbeat style of rock. They have a little
bit more of shredding and groove in it. It is
so much fun. The name of the song is Eyes.
Their upcoming EP is called Bastard Davey Time. Their previous
two albums made my Top ten albums of the year
list each year. This new EP is coming out sooner
than later. Eyes is awesome. I'll link to it. It's
a blast to listen to you. I would love to

(56:46):
play for you, but YouTube would have a fit, a
straight up fit. But I would recommend this one to
anyone if you like heavy music that's up and beaten,
faster and like brighter. It's so so good. New York
City Pride by the way for Rowan in case it's
interesting band out of New York. So other than that,
I think it's time to book some festivals. Please hit
the light button if you haven't already, We'll do one more.

(57:08):
Thank you guys so much. I don't even know what
the like kind of SAIDs like at thirty nine thirty eight,
I'm off. So if you haven't hit the light button,
please you will do one more festival. We have two
right now, Alex and Rowan, Are you ready to book
some festivals?

Speaker 2 (57:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (57:22):
Okay, last week was fine, but we're gonna see how
we go from there. This is where we book four
random bands for a day. That day will be a
festival sponsored by our super chatters right here. Thank you
guys so much for doing that as well. Oh, someone
just said love Moon toof that's great. I've never seen
them live and I want to. So we have two
festivals right now. First up is yeap Fest. This is

(57:44):
from a random bullness so everyone knows I don't cheats.
Here we go. Please don't be awful, please please please.
Number one Crown the Empire. Have they done this anymore?
I'm not showing it to you, guess I apologize. Oh
that's right, because it's on the screen. I apologize.

Speaker 4 (58:07):
Let me know it.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
Did this last up too? I think it's something's changed.
Bam bam, change stream entire scream. Can you see it now?

Speaker 4 (58:21):
Yep?

Speaker 1 (58:21):
Okay, Crowd the Empire has Crowd the Empire done anything recently? Now,
I was gonna say, I couldn't remember off the top
of my head. So number two, well, they're going to
eat Fest. Number two Dorothy a different vibe, but could
still work. Number three deathtnes Et Fest has got something big.

(58:44):
We talked about that already for deftone storing and number
four the crowd demands we replace any one of the
previous bands with the next band.

Speaker 3 (58:54):
Why is it it's so perfect that it is.

Speaker 1 (58:56):
A Crowd the Empire show on Wow random as it gets.

Speaker 2 (59:03):
I did not just the Empire.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
I think it's fitting, isn't it?

Speaker 4 (59:07):
So?

Speaker 2 (59:07):
It was meant to be.

Speaker 1 (59:08):
It was so. We have Deaft Tones, we have Dorothy,
we have Motley Crue, Sweet Mercy Crown the Empire. We
are so sorry. What have we done?

Speaker 3 (59:21):
Never happened?

Speaker 5 (59:22):
Wait?

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Wait, my apology is wrong, yeat Fest, I'm so sorry?

Speaker 2 (59:26):
What have we done?

Speaker 1 (59:27):
Deaf Tones and Motley Crue and you Oh and you know,
mister Neil here is not going to be okay with
going second to last? Okay, keet 'p do that? So
and number four falling in reverse with Ronnie Radkey dresses
Ronald the Clown. We may have done some terrible things

(59:51):
to yeat Fest. You get deaf Tones, You're ruined?

Speaker 5 (59:56):
You ruined?

Speaker 2 (59:57):
No, I think we got it. I think we have
to give yeat Fest a little bit, a little bit
of a something something here.

Speaker 1 (01:00:03):
So should we give them one more band? Should we
give you some.

Speaker 2 (01:00:06):
More bandy Ellie, he says, bring from the Empire back
and get rid of Dorothy. So I think we deserve
at least that much. That's not even the what he
should get rid of the switch out.

Speaker 4 (01:00:19):
I know.

Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
If he's asking for it. We gave him.

Speaker 1 (01:00:28):
We did. Also, someone in Chad just put the messful
in UK Roddy can't go there walka waka, That's true.
What's I'm just worried if I get one more band,
which he deserves, what if it's another bad one.

Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
At least we could do is swap Dorothy for Crown
the Empire.

Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
I guess that does not solve them issues with you Fest,
but that's what he wants. Fine, I assure you that
is not the biggest issue with EAT Fests this year.
I love Deftones, one of my favorite bands. I'm not
going to be able to make it to this festival. Sorry,
I'm sorry. So this has this.

Speaker 4 (01:01:12):
If we do one more band, it has to be
like one of my all time favorites, or I'm not
going even with Dead Tones, who are also one of
my favorite bands.

Speaker 3 (01:01:18):
It's like, it's like that, and that's a bad combo
that we did. That sucks.

Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
People aren't commenting cursed that festival is cursedat that fest. Okay,
that's clever. Okay. If we added a potential fifth just
to make heat Fest better, it would have been rancid. Goodness,
they don't deserve that.

Speaker 2 (01:01:41):
Yeah, I don't think you would have been sorry. I
don't think this is.

Speaker 3 (01:01:47):
In no way It's like I don't love Rancid.

Speaker 1 (01:01:50):
It's not warrants you to go to eat Fest with
Falling Universe and Motley Crue. There's a Can you imagine
the audience for that train wreck of a festival who
they'd have to burn the grounds after.

Speaker 3 (01:02:08):
Salty Earth?

Speaker 1 (01:02:09):
Yeah? Alrighty, we now go to the second one. I'm
so sorry you as you do not deserve that. Gothic
cat girl Fest. First of all, branding a plus for
a festival. We're getting attendees just for that merch line alone,
Gothic cat girl Fest. Gothic cat girl Fest. There, I
said it right. Number one, No, we're not doing that again.

(01:02:35):
Number one nothing more, okay, a real band. Number two,
nothing more. Number two Cliff Diver, you know what, they're fun,
that works. I actually feel like they'd be really good
with Gothic Cat girl Fest as well. They'd have fun

(01:02:55):
with it. Number three Gore you know what, Yes, that
sounds pretty fun to me. And number four Star Set
that actually works pretty well. You know what, cat girl Fest,
you got my money. I'll be there working that one. Yeah,
same yep, across the board. Yeah, across the board. That's

(01:03:17):
a good fun start set. Nothing more are in the
same vibe as well. You have Cliff Diver opening up.
That's fun. Ye should we have Gore? See, I don't know.
I don't know who would headline and who would do
anything because we don't have poor headline. They're going to
kill somebody, Yeah that's true. They will kill someone.

Speaker 4 (01:03:38):
No matter what.

Speaker 2 (01:03:39):
But somebody's gonna get killed. We already know that's happening.

Speaker 1 (01:03:42):
We will consult with Gothic cat Girl a KAA Secker
of who should headline later. But you know what, this
definitely passes across the board. Merch branding, band lineup, wherever
it is. This is a good one. So we redeemed
ourselves a little, just a little. So I want to

(01:04:03):
thank everyone for hanging out with us on this lovely
Wednesday evening or afternoon or Thursday morning, whatever that might be.
Hopefully you all are doing well as we get ready
to say goodbye, Alex, you have anything you'd like to
end with?

Speaker 2 (01:04:18):
Ye, I am good, thank you awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
Rowan, how about you.

Speaker 3 (01:04:23):
Again? Like this is just a one time thing. This
just happened at a bad time with work.

Speaker 4 (01:04:28):
But funny enough, Like I've said it before, but I'm
moving into a new apartment next week, and I should
possibly be there next week, so you know, you'll probably
see me in another desolate, empty room.

Speaker 1 (01:04:38):
So it's already ruins everybody.

Speaker 3 (01:04:42):
Pizza and beer at my place for anyone who's willing
to help me move.

Speaker 1 (01:04:45):
That's a fair trade, Steves. That's the first Steve. That's
the first Steve meeting right there helping row and move.

Speaker 3 (01:04:50):
That's a fair New York style pizza. The best pizza.

Speaker 1 (01:04:53):
I'm fine's the New York style pizza. Totally fine with me.

Speaker 4 (01:04:56):
So we'll also also ground New York style hot dogs,
you know, the from the Little Cars Bat Lucase.

Speaker 1 (01:05:02):
It's not that I hate him, I just I don't
trust him. There's a difference. You don't have to hate
him to not trust him.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
So dude, you don't have to trust any kind of
hot dog. Don't let anyone shave you.

Speaker 1 (01:05:10):
That's true. That's very true. You always have to be
a little weary of a hot dog. That's fair. So
thank you guys so much. You'll have a new video
on the channel tomorrow about the worst deaf Tone song.
There is an amazing discover guy from Deftones. But tomorrow
I break down the worst Deaftone song. A nice little
video filled with memes. You'll have to watch tomorrow and see.

(01:05:33):
Unless you're rowing, I'll tell you after the stream. It's
a fun little thing. So soone just said, just no
Tropical Mustard? Please goodness, where's the tropical Man? That's going
to be a thing going forward? Steve's in the Tropical
Mustard Tennessee.

Speaker 3 (01:05:50):
First, I mean you could fly right.

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
That's the crappiest That is the crappiest bar band I've
ever heard in my life. Steve's in the Tropical Mustard.

Speaker 2 (01:05:58):
There's something there, Yeah, I'm cooking marketing.

Speaker 1 (01:06:03):
There is some there's some confusing merch right there, like
on a T shirt. Steve's in the Tropical must.

Speaker 2 (01:06:10):
There's ace ter vibes all over here.

Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
How hilarious would they be? Would it be if they
were a death core band?

Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Kind of like what was the band? Okally docally the
ned Flanders band along that vibe? But it's Steve.

Speaker 3 (01:06:24):
Yeah, but we have more than just looking like ned Flanders.

Speaker 1 (01:06:28):
That's true. Our gimmick will last longer. Unfortunately, Yeah, Alex, Yeah, unfortunately. Well,
I'm fortunately unfortunately because the Steves and Tropical Mustard is
not exactly a good scenario for our precious schemes. We
care about you. Steve's good.

Speaker 3 (01:06:46):
Here's the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:06:47):
If a band like Sang with Suga Bog with a
name like that, if they can get big, I think Steve,
Steve's in the Tropical Mustard, I think they have a shot.

Speaker 1 (01:06:54):
I'm just I'm not saying it is possible. I'm just
saying we got to be careful. Then we have to
explain what tropical mustard is, and then we're in trouble.

Speaker 4 (01:07:03):
Well, if people think it's dirty or something like that,
it is.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
It's a gross drink. That's dirty enough.

Speaker 2 (01:07:10):
It's dirty.

Speaker 1 (01:07:13):
So oh yeah, yeah, well we'll make merch eventually if
we get this podcast up a little more, thank you
so much, and if you are tropical when Yeah, if
we get like enough merch pre orders, like people interested,
we will like a hire an artist or we actually
I actually know a great graphic artist who would probably
design Steve and the Tropical Mustard on a T.

Speaker 2 (01:07:36):
Shirt, so we could we could find some people.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
We could find someone. Yeah, Alex, last week's joke was
but two weeks ago you had the dad joke to
crown the audience's name.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
So yeah, what do we have this week? Honestly, I
really I didn't leave. I didn't really prap one. But
I have to warn you guys. Okay, okay, either of
you get an email from me about canned meat.

Speaker 1 (01:08:05):
It's spam.

Speaker 2 (01:08:07):
Spam a smile.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
I supposed to say it. I knew that one. What
was I supposed to do? Yeah, Rowan got a smile.
I think he's fighting. Rowan's fighting it too.

Speaker 3 (01:08:22):
I'm not fighting to laugh I supposed to.

Speaker 1 (01:08:25):
I don't know, Alex, what is it called for? Can't
