Speaker 1 (00:00):
Please, you're on with Mario Lopez?
Speaker 2 (00:03):
What's up? Al?
Speaker 1 (00:04):
Mario Lopez joining me on Zoom the Tiki from the
Mass singer Sebastian back, Welcome to the show man.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
How are you?
Speaker 4 (00:11):
How's it going?
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Thanks for having me, Thanks for taking the time.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Now, how did the only rocker on the Mass singer
get eliminated on Rock Night?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
That's ironic?
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Well, that is ironic.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
But I watched the show and I was very proud
of my vocal performance, and I got to.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
Actually choose the songs that I sang on the show
last night.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I was made for Loving You by Kiss and that
was a good timing because I just went to the
last Kiss show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday. Cool,
So it was fun to sing a kiss song right
after going to that show. And I got to sing
Magic by Pilot, which is actually not oh oh oh.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Zim had to good there on that one, though, you
have mixed it up because I would have been funny.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Well, I had to actually remind myself, don't sing that.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Because it's so catchy.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Though so catchy, it's catchy, and the costume looked a
little bulky.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Was that hard to perform in?
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
You know, I'm six four and the costume it was
another foot and a half above me. And then they
had to put the umbrella and the straw in the top,
so that was another foot and a half, so it
was about eleven foot damn costume.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
And I had to have a whole team walking me around.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Backstage, like making me bend down not hit the costume,
and because it was very big, and once they put
it on me, I said, okay, perfect, Now I want
want of you to go out and find me a
pair of platform boots.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
And then I was like, oh my gosh, like godzilla.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Yeah, it was fun.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
That's awesome, man. I'm glad you had a good time.
I know you released your first song in nearly ten years.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Yeah, I gotta lose. What inspired this one.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
It's called what Do I Got to Lose?
Speaker 2 (02:21):
And I co wrote it with Miles Kennedy from Altar
Bridge and the new video is out today featuring my
lovely wife Suzanne, who you actually know a little bit.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Oh yes, that right, Yes? From where.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
From the Hilton and y ki Key Hawaiian Tropic if
she was Miss Arkansas and you showed her how to
surf for the very first ever time.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Is that ring a bell? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I think it does. Is Matt Turtle Bay Hilton? Wow?
Oh good for you. Congratulations wife.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
She's in the new video.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Okay, So if you don't remember of that little jog
your memory. But she wanted me to tell you that
she loves your wife and your kids are like you,
and she loves she thanks you because she says you're
the first celebrity that she ever met.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Oh wow, what a small world. Will please send her
my best That's awesome. That's cool, man, that's cool.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
I know.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Is this song, by the way, part of an album
or yes?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
It's coming out in twenty twenty four, and it's produced
by Elvis Basquette, who did all Wolfgang ben Halen's music.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Which I really love.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I love the song that Wolfe wrote for his dad Eddie,
so I got Elvis to do it with me. And
the new video is done by Jim Luveau, who did
the new Jerry Cantrell's Come from House and Chains.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
So I've been working on it for ten years.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
You know, none of us could do anything for a
couple of years back then.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
So coming out of that pandemic, I don't take anything
for granted.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I really take everything I do serious because there was
a time but I didn't know if we would ever
do this again. So even like the Mass singer, I
had so much fun putting on.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
A big show and I would love to do it again.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Nice. And I assume you're going to be touring in
the new year.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Yes, I have a full South American tour booked right
now Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo and Buenos Aires and
Mexico City and lots of full through that. I'm also
playing the Rainbow fifty second anniversary, which I can't believe
(04:55):
that place is still there.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
I'm sure you've been there once or twice.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Yeah, I'm doing Welcome to Rockville with Food Fighters and
Slipknot and Essence. That's in May at Daytona Beach International Speedway.
Welcome to Rockville. So lots of touring coming up.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
That's awesome. And do you have a routine.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
I'm just curious to keep your voice in shape or
do you just try to avoid a lot of certain stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
No, I definitely have a warm up. When I joined
the band Skid Roll in nineteen eighty eight, Jon bon
Jovi took us under his wing and sent me to
his vocal coach in New York, a guy by the
name of Don Lawrence, who made us record all of
(05:45):
our vocal sessions with him. So I have all these
vocal sessions, and to this day, in twenty twenty three,
I warm up to the same scales that I did
in nineteen eighty eight.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Wow it works, that's cool.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Well, I just know how to do it.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
And a lot of people think that singing rock and
roll is screaming at the top of your lungs. It's
actually kind of a trick to sound like you are.
But if you go too hard, you'll blow your voice out,
like when you go to the baseball game.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Yeah, you'll be able to do it night after day,
exactly right.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Yeah, So that's that's a trick to learn, and you
either learn it or you don't.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
So yeah, it's a it's a scale thing.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
It's just like going to the gym and yeah, working
out your muscles. Exactly muscle, And it's there's no shortcut
to getting it doing for me anyways, Like.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
I'll start like two three weeks before I have to sing,
you know, in my house, getting the voice going, and uh,
you know, I'm fifty five and it's knock on wood.
It hasn't let.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Me down yet.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
So awesome, man, thank you, thank you, bon Joby and
Don Laurn.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
That's awesome. That's a great shout out. Well, congrats on everything.
And listen to What Do I Got to Lose on
IR Radio or wherever you get your music, Sebastian, thanks
for hanging out man. Good luck on the tour. And
tell missus buck I said hello, please.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Yeah, and she wants me to tell your wife hello.
Maybe we can get together with the ladies Mary.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Yeah, don't go check out a show. Sounds good, man.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
All right, sounds good. What do we got to lose?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, right there you go, all right, but have a
good day.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
