I know you're a big forty 45 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 3: nine Ers fan. Yeah, so I'm wondering, like put us 46 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 3: where you were and what you were going through as 47 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 3: the forty nine Ers lost there in the NFC Championship game. 48 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: Well, you know, I was there at the game. I 49 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: went down to check it out of feeling it was 50 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: going to go kind of like it did. Really the uh, 51 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 2: the Nineries, they're a pretty complete team, but uh, you know, 52 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: and all of us were hoping that Jimmy g would 53 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: get over whatever hump he needs to get over and 54 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: uh and not choke. But you know, maybe maybe sometime 55 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 2: in the future. I don't know, but you know, you 56 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 2: could feel him choking, and the whole team, the whole 57 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: team choked when he did. You know, everybody was busy 58 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 2: second guessing uh themselves and and everybody else. It was 59 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: at first they were okay, but you know he you know, 60 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: he kind of has that about him, and so it 61 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: was what would that What we saw there was the 62 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 2: you know, changing the guard basically, and it happened. It happened, 63 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: I think right and right before our eyes. Next year, Uh, 64 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 2: Trey Lance steps in and he doesn't he doesn't really 65 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 2: have to be altogether. That excellent is just if he 66 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: uses the skill set that he we know he has, 67 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 2: the Niners will be a more complete team on offense. 68 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 2: If he can throw the ball down the field, which 69 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 2: apparently he can do, then that's going to stretch the field. 70 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 2: Then if if when the pocket collapses, if he's good 71 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 2: for ten yards up the middle, they're going to have 72 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 2: to put us by up close to the laurna scrimmage. 73 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: And that means that deeper middle there where Debo and 74 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: uh and and Kittle kind of make their living, there's 75 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 2: gonna they're gonna be more open receivers. And so if 76 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 2: Trey is able to read the field even as well 77 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: as Jimmy does, which is not all that swell and 78 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: not all that great, but if if he's able to 79 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: read the field and knows where to look for his guys, 80 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 2: there's gonna be there're gonna be much more open window. 81 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 2: There are gonna there are gonna be much more open 82 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 2: windows and uh, and then beyond that, if he's as 83 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 2: good as everybody hopes he is, then that's just that's 84 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: that's the Uh, that's the gravy Bob. 85 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 3: A couple of things that was fantastic like you call 86 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 3: Jimmy g a choker, and then you really like broke 87 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 3: it down, and I suggest perhaps you should quit what 88 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 3: it is you're doing. You're doing fine, by the way, 89 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 3: and get into my business. That was fucking amazing, Bobby. 90 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: Well, I mean everybody saw it, everybody you know, and 91 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 2: and like I say, you know, is a team sport. 92 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: One guy chokes, they're all gonna choke. It's not like 93 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 2: he chokes, per se. It's there are reasons for that. 94 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: He saw that they were taken away the places he goes, 95 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 2: and so he didn't know what to do because there 96 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 2: is nothing to do, right, you know, if you if 97 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 2: you can't, if you can't, if you can't if they're 98 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: taking away the deep middle or you know, nothing there 99 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 2: not so deep middle, you know the places where deepo 100 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 2: and and and kittle Yeah yeah yeah, and you know 101 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 2: between the hashes around the hashes, and you know fifteen 102 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 2: yards up there. If if you take that away, he 103 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 2: had nowhere to go. Yeah, no, you have nowhere to go. 104 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,119 Speaker 3: It's gonna be interesting to see how because they're literally 105 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 3: a quarterback away. Bob. I'm wondering when did your love 106 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 3: for music start and where did he come from. 107 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 2: I you know, I grew up in the fifties. Uh. 108 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 2: You know, my childhood was in the fifties and early sixties. 109 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 2: And uh, here in northern California, and I listened to 110 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 2: the radio. I listened to you that was the heyday 111 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 2: of rock and roll. Of rock and roll is within 112 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 2: the narrow description of what how I view rock and roll. 113 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 2: Rock and roll happened for just a few years. And 114 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: uh and uh and uh you know Elvis Presley, uh, 115 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: Chuck Berry, the Everly Brothers. To some degree, it was 116 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 2: it was a very specific kind of deal. And back 117 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: in those days, for instance, there was there was not 118 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: much of a difference between between country and in rock 119 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: and roll. It was they called it rockabilly. That was 120 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: where my my appreciation for music got case hardened. Uh 121 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: that plus, I had a nanny when I was a 122 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 2: kid who used to me in front of our big 123 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 2: seventy eight record player, a big ornate deal and play 124 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 2: opera for me.

Was it was a big favorite. 126 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 3: Why did you know this was something you wanted to 127 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 3: or pursue for a living. 128 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 2: Well, I remember I was about four years old when 129 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: I first heard Mario Lonza and that guy had pipes, and. 130 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 3: You got some pipes too, Bobby, by the way. 131 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 2: Oh thanks. I knew. I knew when I was old 132 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: enough to hear it, that that's what I wanted to 133 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: go for. 134 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 3: Did you ever doubt? Did you ever think, hey, I'm 135 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 3: not going to make it? 136 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 2: No, it never crossed my mind. It's what I love 137 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: that you have to have and you just for it. 138 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 2: That's that. 139 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 3: I absolutely love that. When did you know, Bob, like, 140 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 3: was there a moment for you where you said, hey, 141 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 3: I've made it. We've made it as a band, the 142 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 3: grateful dad has made it. Was there a moment for 143 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 3: you guys? N it just kind of happened. 144 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: No, I've got I've got a view of that whole 145 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 2: situation that goes pretty much like this, the stuff that 146 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 2: the decisions I make these days, the stuff that I'm 147 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 2: working on in all it. I try to view all 148 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 2: the decisions I make and all the stuff that I 149 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 2: do in terms of how will this play in three 150 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: hundred years? Because if we do stuff right, is pretty 151 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 2: pretty clear to me that people will still be talking 152 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 2: about it in three hundred years. Yeah, And so I 153 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 2: try to I tried to run that. That's my first consideration. 154 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: What am I gonna? What am I gonna? What scals 155 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 2: am I going to work on today? What? What am 156 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 2: I going to practice today? Well, what's going to make 157 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 2: the biggest difference in you know, what needs what needs 158 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 2: the most work for that three hundred year ideal. And 159 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 2: that's that's how I go about things now. 160 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 3: Bob. It's interesting. I'll tell you a funny story because 161 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 3: and I'm so happy you're still doing it and doing 162 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 3: it now with Wolf Brothers and doing it now with 163 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 3: Dead and Company.

I used to 167 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 3: play your music around my house all the time, and 168 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 3: my daughter's teenage daughters they'd be like that, don't date. 169 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 3: This is the wrong way, Bob. Okay. They would say, Daddy, 170 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 3: what is this? Turn this crap off? Okay. And then 171 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 3: you started Dead in Company and you got John Mayer 172 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: to I guess play the role of Jerry, although no 173 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 3: one will ever be able to play that role and 174 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 3: fill that role and fill the void of Jerry Garcia, 175 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, the music that my daughters 176 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 3: were making fun of me for listening to was the 177 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 3: coolest thing they had ever heard, simply because of John 178 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 3: and I are so I wanted you to know that, and 179 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 3: they have now been to fifteen shows with me. 180 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 2: Really well, you know, if that's where it takes, then 181 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 2: that's where it takes more to it than that you 182 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 2: connect to generations though, Bob, that's awesome. Yeah, you know, 183 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: I respectfully submit that there are other changes that I'm 184 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 2: not going to point out you can look for. There 185 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 2: are other changes in the music beside the addition of 186 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 2: John Mayer. There's some stuff that's been simplified just by 187 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 2: virtue of the of our approach to it. That makes 188 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: the music a little more accessible. Because the songs are 189 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: I think the songs are I think the songs are 190 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 2: there that they're going to stand the test of time 191 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 2: to the point where I'm pretty sure they'll be talking 192 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 2: about them in three hundred years. But it's how you 193 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 2: flash them out. And we have made minor corrections in 194 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 2: our approach to UH to how we play the songs. 195 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 2: We still play them open ended and all that kind 196 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 2: of stuff, and everybody has quite a bit of freedom 197 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 2: to to interpret them on a game in an evening 198 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 2: however it is they feel. But there is there's there's 199 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 2: been a little bit of simplification that's been done to 200 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 2: the overall approach that that I think the music benefits by. 201 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 2: The songs definitely benefit by I don't I don't want 202 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: to get into specifics, but but I'll just leave it 203 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 2: at that. 204 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 3: I will tell you that as long as you're standing 205 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: in the middle of that stage, it legitimizes everything for me. 206 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 3: So I'll keep going. Okay, my kids are going from Mayor. 207 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 3: I'm going for you, Bob. Okay, Bob, were is with us? 208 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 2: Uh? 209 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: You have your Wolf Brothers Dore coming up. I'm going 210 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 3: to a show with Chicago. I'm very excited. I haven't 211 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 3: seen you guys yet. I obviously saw you, you know, 212 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 3: with Jerry back in the in the eighties when I 213 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 3: was growing up in the nineties, and I've seen Dead 214 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 3: in Company. I have not seen you with Wolf Brothers yet. 215 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 3: You have a tour. I think it starts March knife 216 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 3: in Nashville. I'm going to the show on UH on 217 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 3: March eighteeth in Chicago. So I'm looking forward to about 218 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 3: what is kind of different about what you do with 219 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 3: Wolf Brothers as opposed to what you do with Dead 220 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 3: and Company. 221 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 2: Well, wolf Bros. Is a little more experimental. Wolf Bros. 222 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 2: Got started as we're doing I'm doing a project whereby 223 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 2: I'm orchestrating a bunch of Dead tunes. We're going to 224 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: try to go for the whole book eventually. 225 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 3: Nice. 226 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: So I'm working with a guy who teaches down at 227 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 2: Stamford in their in their music department and UH, and 228 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 2: we're orchestrating a bunch of tunes and we had some 229 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,359 Speaker 2: dates in in early early March, but they've been covided 230 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 2: back to UH, if that's the word now, covided back 231 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 2: to UH October with the National Symphony Orchestra and UH. 232 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: We have about four nights worth of material that we're 233 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 2: going to put out. And one of the things we 234 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 2: want to do with the Symphony Orchestra is to get 235 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 2: long stretches of the music. We want to make make 236 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: it possible to UH get the Symphony Orchestra to improvise, 237 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 2: and we have a number of techniques that we want 238 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 2: to try to that end. And what we're going to 239 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 2: do is Uh, well, well we we we we put 240 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: together a small section of a couple of string players, 241 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 2: uh and some some wind guys, and uh we're going 242 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 2: to sort of salt them into the into the symphony 243 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 2: orchestra as improv section leaders so that they'll be able 244 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 2: to get each of the sections to improvise all of 245 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: one voice. So if you have thirty two measures where 246 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 2: we're going to do these improv sections, then these guys 247 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 2: take over as a section leader and feed the guys 248 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 2: in their section, whether it be the violins or cellos 249 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: or or trumpets or whatever. They feed them whatever lines 250 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 2: are going to be playing for this over over these 251 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 2: chord changes, and it'll never fall together the same way twice, and. 252 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 3: It never does both. 253 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 2: And these guys have been working with us now for 254 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 2: a while, so they know they're they're sort of inculcated, 255 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 2: if you will, to to our way of doing things, 256 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 2: and they have, uh, a sense of how to do 257 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 2: this and and so like I say, we we seed 258 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 2: them out into the orchestra. And uh, anyway, but those 259 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 2: are the guys you're going to see up the one 260 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 2: side of the stage, uh the stage left. Uh there, 261 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 2: that's that's our little section there and then uh, and 262 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: then we have the core band now content. Uh, we 263 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: have Jeff on keyboard now and uh and uh. I 264 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 2: think Barry is going to be various. Slice is going 265 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 2: to be out there on pillow steel. Awesome. 266 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 3: Bob, you love this like You're not slowing down? I 267 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 3: think it, Like, is it fair to say you're enjoying 268 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 3: this as much as ever? 269 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: If not more so? Yeah? Really, yeah, you know, I really, 270 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 2: you know, this is what I'm here for. 271 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 3: Bob. I have to fill in the blank questions for you, 272 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 3: and I'll get to them in a second. But I 273 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 3: was wondering real quick here, how did you guys land 274 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 3: how did you land on the decision to go with 275 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 3: with John Nyer? And I only ask it from this standpoint. 276 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 3: Not only did it tie generations together? So now I 277 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 3: find my daughters now not listening to Dead and Company. 278 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,679 Speaker 3: They're listening to the Dead okay, back in the seventies 279 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 3: and the eighties and the nineties, the shows that I 280 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 3: went to, because they have grown to love them so much. 281 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 3: But I think it was such an inspired selection to 282 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 3: go with John Mayer. And I'm wondering how it came about, 283 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 3: because Bob, you know his dead fans, we don't. The 284 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 3: singing is the singing, and it's fantastic, and we love 285 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 3: the lyrics, and you have a great voice, and he 286 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 3: has a great voice. But for us as dead fans, 287 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 3: it's about hitting that jam on terrapin or brown eyed 288 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 3: woman or a loser. That's all we really care about Bob, 289 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 3: and he hits them. I don't want to say exactly 290 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 3: like Jerry, but pretty damn close. 291 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 2: Well. He has a voice to bring to it, and 292 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 2: God knows it's an authentic one. He's put in some 293 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 2: mirrors on his instrument both vocally and instrumentally. He came 294 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 2: to the realization that he wanted to be part of 295 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 2: a band rather than being the guy who was who 296 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: was the be all and end all of of of 297 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 2: whatever musical effort was being put out. And uh and 298 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 2: at the same time he heard the way we worked 299 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 2: together and and that that appealed to him and so 300 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 2: we uh. He fell in. He fell in. He went 301 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 2: down that rabbit hole. You know, there are good rabbit 302 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 2: holes and mad ones to go down, depending on your 303 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 2: view of things. I think he uh, he found a 304 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 2: good one to go down. 305 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 3: It's the rabbit hole in the history of rabbit holes, Bob, 306 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 3: and uh it just worked. 307 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 2: So he he was busy discovering the uh the approach 308 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 2: to music and stuff like that, and uh and he 309 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 2: had a week or so that he was guest hosting, 310 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 2: uh a late night talk show and uh, you wanted 311 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 2: to try his hat at that or try his handed 312 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: that and and uh he invited me to come and 313 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 2: sit sit in with his band and uh and be 314 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 2: one of one of his guests. And UH, so we 315 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 2: we got to We got to the studio and we 316 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 2: had twenty minutes too.
