Speaker 3: blonde or no.
Speaker 4: But that was well deserved. Listen, you were supreme.
Speaker 2: I mean you still are, but father Time is undefeated,
Speaker 2: as they say.

Speaker 2: on songs, it goes away. As you know that, as
Speaker 2: you know that no one's coming.
Speaker 3: Here, it goes Oh you were a sexy guy in

Speaker 6: the management, I was just confused and flatters you were
Speaker 6: you were an American Idol judge too was.
Speaker 7: Here's the thing. I don't want it to get lost
Speaker 7: that Mark isn't a good vocalist, because.
Speaker 2: He is incredible.
Speaker 7: Listen to the vocals on the Guys songs.
Speaker 5: I know you gotta listen.
Speaker 6: Try to sample one of your songs.
Speaker 7: Stuck here with boy banders, so he has to like
Speaker 7: but Mark's vocals are up there with everybody else here.
Speaker 7: He's an amazing singer. He's gonna be humble, and I
Speaker 7: know it's probably a difficult situation to be here with
Speaker 7: guys that pride themselves on you could.
Speaker 1: You couldn't make it before pro tools, if you couldn't
Speaker 1: say fans of yours.
Speaker 7: I've heard you use that pro tools quit before you're
Speaker 7: an incredible singer. Man, It's just you know, Irish, what

Speaker 3: it all the time. But I want you guys to
Speaker 3: take one that one moment in your career that was
Speaker 3: the most unforgettable moment. I can't believe I'm doing this

Speaker 3: blowing my mind. Jeff, do you want to go for
Speaker 3: you guys can think about it or lancet.

Speaker 5: Came that day. Ever ever looked fall.
Speaker 1: Any, Nelly and Mary Jay at the end, but it
Speaker 1: was to go back and forth with Aerosmith at the
Speaker 1: because I'm a huge NFL fan. I mean, it was
Speaker 1: just the biggest moment for me ever and I mean
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 10: About it and as a fan, that was the first
Speaker 10: time I actually really paid attention to to US halftime
Speaker 10: Super Bowl. So I was like twelve, I think at
Speaker 10: the time, was in seventh grade, and I just remember
Speaker 10: being like, Wow, this is epic, and before that I
Speaker 10: never cared.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that was when that one just often listed as
Speaker 7: one of the top ten always of all time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that gaven Stick a gravitas like you're in sanc
Speaker 3: and Aerosmith and Nelly.
Speaker 4: It was just amazing. And it was like.
Speaker 7: Because they were the anchor, they were they were the
Speaker 7: main attraction at that time.
Speaker 2: People, you know, which is really cool.
Speaker 1: It was fine. That's when MTV would produce the halftime.
Speaker 1: It was just epic. What about you, guys, what's your like,
Speaker 1: what's your favorite moment so far in your career?
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was like a wow, I can think about
Speaker 6: is watching you like, no, sorry, but it's a random thing.
Speaker 6: Does nothing to do. I'm just thinking about the magazines.
Speaker 6: When I was talking about you trying, like when you're
Speaker 6: gonna going to go to space, I want you to
Speaker 6: still go to Yeah, we please send. There's still a
Speaker 6: whole generation of millennials that are waiting for Lance Pas
Speaker 6: to go to space. Magazines did you go through train.
Speaker 4: Certified?
Speaker 1: It was a week before my launching, like.
Speaker 5: A very important certif blah.
Speaker 4: He lived on a Russian base for six months. That's
Speaker 4: a for the millennial.
Speaker 6: At least send this man to space.
Speaker 8: All right, listen, Mark asked a question, and he only
Speaker 8: asked it so we would ask him.
Speaker 5: Tell me what would you want for? Was it?
Speaker 6: Was it on?
Speaker 5: It was final American Idol.
Speaker 6: It was like after the fact because I didn't realize
Speaker 6: it was going to be as a special of a
Speaker 6: moment for other people and for me, Like the reason
Speaker 6: why I do what I do and why I sing
Speaker 6: is to connect with people. Sure like that's my favorite thing,
Speaker 6: even like from a person a person thing to to
Speaker 6: a performance to an audience or on a TV show.
Speaker 6: When I sang imagine on American Idol, I didn't think
Speaker 6: it was going to be special. I thought I was
Speaker 6: gonna get voted off because everyone else was doing these
Speaker 6: rock and seventies songs like upbeat fun and I was like,
Speaker 6: oh my gosh, I'm gonna I'm gonna put people to sleep.
Speaker 10: No, that doesn't work on American Idol. If you can
Speaker 10: sing a song that you could kill vocally, that's.
Speaker 4: Going to win.
Speaker 6: I didn't know what that was, you know, I was
Speaker 6: I just turned seventeen. I just thought, Okay, like this
Speaker 6: song I like and whatever, and and like my they
Speaker 6: were going to have me sing another song?
Speaker 4: What was it?
Speaker 6: You made me so very happy? By blood? But my dad,
Speaker 6: my dad had heard me sing Imagine before. He's like, David,
Speaker 6: you should sing Imagine. And I was like okay, And
Speaker 6: so I was like, sorry, but can I change my song?
Speaker 6: And I felt bad? And they were like, okay, let's
Speaker 6: say if we can get it clear, and they did
Speaker 6: and I sang it and I was just like, okay,
Speaker 6: I'm gonna get voted off because I'm going to put
Speaker 6: But for some reason, it connected with people, and that's
Speaker 6: what people to this day, Like last week, people were
Speaker 6: I have people coming up to me last just last
Speaker 6: week saying when you sing Imagine, I'm like, I don't
Speaker 6: know why. But the reason why I love that moment
Speaker 6: is because it allowed me to connect with millions of people.
Speaker 10: And I heard you saying it was like my favorite
Speaker 10: rendish I've ever heard of the song at the time,
Speaker 10: so I can listen to it in my head and
Speaker 10: I know exactly like your inflexes and everything, because I
Speaker 10: just remember that as a family, Joey.
Speaker 5: That's why I asked the question. I just wanted to
Speaker 5: get back to it.
Speaker 8: It's my way of getting back to it, Joey.
Speaker 7: It would be interesting to know having so many experience.
Speaker 8: I do want to say, though, I mean, you know
Speaker 8: you you you have a voice that, like some people
Speaker 8: say they could sing the phone Book, right, I mean
Speaker 8: you just.
Speaker 5: You're blessed with that.
Speaker 8: But the way you serve and the way you unselfishly
Speaker 8: and humbly, you know, just offer that gift is incredible.
Speaker 8: But like there's not you know, so many people have
Speaker 8: covered that song, but like the honesty and the and
Speaker 8: the just the simpleness that you were able to and
Speaker 8: and obviously just the sound that you know, God gave
Speaker 8: you for that voice, you know, and and selfishly I go,
Speaker 8: I have to remember that, don't we have to remember
Speaker 8: that as artists, you know what I mean, because we
Speaker 8: can get so cynical every time we go after it
Speaker 8: and it sounds so corny, you know, but like we
Speaker 8: have to remind ourselves of that, because that's what our
Speaker 8: fans show up for.
Speaker 5: That's why people.
Speaker 7: Well, we've all been beaten up by by the business,
Speaker 7: and I think we all got into it to do
Speaker 7: exactly what you're talking about, to serve to do music
Speaker 7: because it's in our hearts, because we're because we're gifted
Speaker 7: with a little bit of it, maybe some more than other, right,
Speaker 7: But you know, I think that that's the thing that
Speaker 7: you end up getting sort of distracted from was the
Speaker 7: whole reason you got into it. It's because you just
Speaker 7: love music and you love the reaction of people that
Speaker 7: hear you singing and portraying these messages. So yeah, I mean,
Speaker 7: I think you're exactly right. I'm glad you kind of
Speaker 7: brought that up and and and for you to just
Speaker 7: sort of kind of recollect something that all these guys
Speaker 7: are going was a pivotal moment on that not just
Speaker 7: that season, but that series in its entirety is a
Speaker 7: pretty amazing moment. And the fact that you shared that
Speaker 7: and it's just now coming back to you do that
Speaker 7: for so many people.
Speaker 10: There was only a few moments that like you really
Speaker 10: remember from American there's so many seasons and it's like
Speaker 10: you forget so much, but there's a few moments of
Speaker 10: certain people singing certain songs and remember your yours is
Speaker 10: definitely one.
Speaker 4: And it was like Adam Lambert when he did Mad World,
Speaker 4: that was his moment.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was amazing.
Speaker 10: Kelly Clarkson had the second you first saw her singing
Speaker 10: respect even as he was until the last twenty four
Speaker 10: and then she's saying that and natural woman woman killed.
Speaker 10: It's like what you're saying, It was like the competition's over.
Speaker 7: Yeah, but don't get it lost because you were involved
Speaker 7: in that moment that your moment isn't as important as
Speaker 7: the one.
Speaker 1: Thank you exactly.
Speaker 6: What's weird about it is it didn't feel like a
Speaker 6: moment at the time. It was just like, you know,
Speaker 6: it's just like you're just doing what you love, like
Speaker 6: like singing like I would in my backyard, and like
Speaker 6: the dogs would bark because I'd be singing. They come
Speaker 6: over and like in drove me, Like I realize, so
Speaker 6: like it was just a moment, but you don't. Sometimes
Speaker 6: you just don't realize when it's going to be something
Speaker 6: that other people relate to. But that's also when I
Speaker 6: realized the power of music.
Speaker 4: Music.
Speaker 5: Yeah, like, and that's another great reminder though. That's the thing.
Speaker 8: We don't get to decide what it means to other people,
Speaker 8: you know, we just to show up. Of course it
Speaker 8: means something to us. Of course that's so meant something
Speaker 8: to you. But like, yeah, everyone interprets it the reminder.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dave, you have to play that in your show.
Speaker 2: Its right, there's no way you're not.
Speaker 6: I haven't show probably should.
Speaker 5: I think I was.
Speaker 6: There's like the American idol trauma that you deal with that,
Speaker 6: Like I'm like, I don't want to put myself back
Speaker 6: in that place because it was amazing but also super
Speaker 6: there's a lot mixed in with that. You try to
Speaker 6: like cancel it out, but maybe I should. I feel like, yes,
Speaker 6: it's enough time, what about you?
Speaker 5: That's the beauty of it.
Speaker 8: Man. It's like, but I'm glad, I'm I'm I'm glad.
Speaker 5: He's aware of that, you know what I mean? And like, again,
Speaker 5: just feeding.
Speaker 8: Off the awareness of that that like that was a
Speaker 8: tough time, you know, it's like and that that's that success, right,
Speaker 8: I mean, like we we can all identify with that.
Speaker 5: Is that like.
Speaker 8: It's the biggest show in the world and you're you're
Speaker 8: like you're right up there with everything, and like it's
Speaker 8: it's such a gift, but like it was hard and
Speaker 8: there's trauma and you have to sort through that and
Speaker 8: balance that, and like it's it's it's lovely that like
Speaker 8: you're at a moment now in your life that you
Speaker 8: can only get through living. You can't snap your fingers.
Speaker 8: It can't take five years or fifteen years or whatever.
Speaker 8: It takes what it takes, and like now it's really
Speaker 8: sweet that you're like, you know what, Okay, I walked
Speaker 8: through that. I felt that, I felt the feelings.
Speaker 5: I lived a life.
Speaker 8: I went through that, and now maybe I can look
Speaker 8: at it and I identify with that.
Speaker 5: I think we all do.
Speaker 3: It's got to put distance between what you're known for
Speaker 3: and then let it all kind of cycle through and go.
Speaker 4: That was pretty cool.
Speaker 3: I'm so proud of it, and I'm so honored anybody
Speaker 3: ever showed up and still show up.
Speaker 4: Yes, Jeff, you talked about earlier.
Speaker 1: We all yeah, beautiful.
Speaker 7: So your watching, Well, it's only forty minute segment.
Speaker 5: A couple of things. I blessed beyond belief. I know,
Speaker 5: we know you believe, and you know me and the
Speaker 5: new kids.
Speaker 8: We were like a family and somehow we haven't screwed
Speaker 8: it up and it's been wonderful. And I've also, you know,
Speaker 8: been able to do a lot of things on my own.
Speaker 8: A couple of things come to mind. I'll pick one
Speaker 8: and it sounds like a flex, but I just played
Speaker 8: Carnegie Hall this year, well so so and I just
Speaker 8: turned fifty, so I did something special. But yeah, no,
Speaker 8: it was great. It was great.
Speaker 2: We played.
Speaker 5: Yeah I'm not the guy with the shirt and the fan, but.
Speaker 8: You probably yeah, but it was one of all. And
Speaker 8: I had the guys there, and I had all these
Speaker 8: meaningful people and I got to play.
Speaker 4: It's amazing.
Speaker 5: And the thing is what the gift there is that
Speaker 5: I belonged. I belong You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: We get to a place where, because you know what
Speaker 8: I mean, eighteen thousand people could say, what do you
Speaker 8: mean you belong?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 8: They say all of us, and that's what we're talking
Speaker 8: about here. But like for me, in a very simple,
Speaker 8: quiet way, like I belonged here.
Speaker 5: You know what I mean? It was beautiful and I
Speaker 5: couldn't ask it never sold anything, It sold out, sold out.
Speaker 5: What did you say quickly?
Speaker 8: About twenty five songs we sang for three hours. They
Speaker 8: had to kick us off because the curfew. Literally we
Speaker 8: cut the last song in half, called the audible. We said, well,
Speaker 8: the one verse, I mean it was it was union.
Speaker 5: It is not play there. Yeah, but a lot of
Speaker 5: different stuff.
Speaker 6: I'll sing that's really cold, your whole Holy Night saved
Speaker 6: on my cue, Yes, Spotify, Yeah, yeah, I'm going.
Speaker 7: To go to market.
Speaker 1: I'm still thinking.
Speaker 7: It's it's really hard to pick. I mean, we were saying,
Speaker 7: you're going, okay, what was I mean the first time
Speaker 7: we heard I asked the song on the radio was amazing,
Speaker 7: Like we never expected this to happen. And then to
Speaker 7: do songs with Mariah Carey and Joe and Tevie Wonder
Speaker 7: and for Disney, and then do Michael Jackson's special for
Speaker 7: Luther Vander, performing with Luther Vandals and Usher, and to
Speaker 7: be associated with you guys and you guys and you
Speaker 7: guys later on. I mean, it's hard to pick a moment.
Speaker 7: So it sounds why, but it's like the entire journeyism moment,
Speaker 7: you know. And to be able to do it, I
Speaker 7: think really for me as a fifty year old guy too,
Speaker 7: And to be able to do this, you guys, I mean,
Speaker 7: just just to be doing this and to be associated
Speaker 7: with legendary once in a lifetime brands and bands that
Speaker 7: that are pinnacles of music history. Being a fan of
Speaker 7: the music. Although we get associated with canned up pop
Speaker 7: stuff that's packaged, we all got in it for the
Speaker 7: lod reuse, right, And and and to be able to
Speaker 7: be doing this that it's been the journey. I can't
Speaker 7: pick a moment, because singing at the White House with
Speaker 7: Christina and Bill Clinton in the you know, that's that's
Speaker 7: crazy to me being from a small town in Ohio
Speaker 7: that was taping songs off of off the radio, going
Speaker 7: all right, parting it out.
Speaker 4: How did you get out of Ohio.
Speaker 7: To you know, I just started a group at a
Speaker 7: party trying to sing for girls.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: They were all friends, Yeah, so.
Speaker 7: So we I mean, it was really, if you think
Speaker 7: about it now, it was really kind of impulsive and
Speaker 7: dumb and you would never do it. And my parents
Speaker 7: just were like, well, he's really got his head set
Speaker 7: on this. He's gonna go do it, and I got
Speaker 7: fortunate enough to be paired up with a bunch of
Speaker 7: other guys that were really, really talented, and we worked
Speaker 7: hard and had success and got lucky and it all
Speaker 7: ended up being amazing. So one moment, I don't have one,
Speaker 7: you know, I can't pick.
Speaker 6: Well, you just said it, and wow, talk about like
Speaker 6: summarizing to a key like that was a great summary,
Speaker 6: but like just be able to being able to start
Speaker 6: something that took you on a journey.
Speaker 7: I mean, you know, we're talking about doing stuff that
Speaker 7: I was dreaming about that my friends, we were from
Speaker 7: a really small town that's a football town. They thought
Speaker 7: it was absolutely insane and stupid, and I was laughing
Speaker 7: stock of my town and then.
Speaker 6: Talking about but later on, you know, they everybody's gracious
Speaker 6: that you go back and support and give back to
Speaker 6: the town, which is perfect.
Speaker 7: But certainly this goes above and beyond what I had
Speaker 7: envisioned for my life and and and the impact and
Speaker 7: things that we got to do later on, which is
Speaker 7: an absolute blessing, you know, uh, to be doing it
Speaker 7: this many years later and to be still relevant and
Speaker 7: selling tickets and not chasing you know how.
Speaker 6: Much because sometimes I wonder that, like, how much longer
Speaker 6: can I do this? As long as you stop you
Speaker 6: I want to, I just don't know if like to
Speaker 6: be able to get You've got a world class voice.
Speaker 5: Now if you show up, people are.
Speaker 7: Going to show up as long as you love it
Speaker 7: and as long as people know that you love it
Speaker 7: and love what you do, unless.
Speaker 5: You want to buy a castle. And then we got
Speaker 5: to talk to this better be good like the torches
Speaker 5: for you.
Speaker 4: I mean it's pretty good.
Speaker 3: I mean, but the thing he said is is what
Speaker 3: all of our best moment The journey has been amazing
Speaker 3: all but you kind of I hinted towards it, and David,
Speaker 3: you've said it to the journey and Lance, you know,
Speaker 3: the journey has been amazing and it's still happening and
Speaker 3: we still have magical moments.
Speaker 2: But that one tangible moment for me was in nineteen
Speaker 2: ninety nine we were.
Speaker 5: Opening for the Rolling Stones.
Speaker 2: Watch your feet, names are falling and we're.
Speaker 3: Opening for the Stones and I'm sitting there going because
Speaker 3: we were a little older, my success happened.
Speaker 2: I was twenty seven.
Speaker 3: I was a little bit older at sixty eight years old.
Speaker 3: Now I feel comfortable saying that what.
Speaker 4: Look good and.
Speaker 5: We'll be back now. You're impressed them, so.
Speaker 8: Over the Stones and I'm sitting there going but you'll
Speaker 8: be twenty five forever.
Speaker 6: I think you will mark.
Speaker 5: Twenty five wherever. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 3: So we're sitting there playing and Stones audiences are typically tough.
Speaker 2: They're like Metallica audience. They don't want to see anybody else.
Speaker 4: But the Stones.
Speaker 3: So we're going out there. We're battling, we're throwing some punches.
Speaker 3: We had flying the arsenal. It's med a couple of haymakers.
Speaker 3: We're battling, and I think the audience looked at you guys, like, oh,
Speaker 3: there's a bunch of puppies on stage.
Speaker 2: They're happy to be here because we were. It was
Speaker 2: amazing open.

Speaker 3: influence in our band.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean, just to get on stage,
Speaker 2: the energy and all that youse.
Speaker 7: Guys had put out. I know a little bit about
Speaker 7: your background. Yeah, and you guys were influenced by more
Speaker 7: of that rock rock sort of scene. I know a
Speaker 7: lot of the songs you ended up putting out seemed
Speaker 7: to be a little bit more in the pop lane.
Speaker 7: But you guys were influenced by the Chili Peppers and
Speaker 7: some of the other punk rock scene.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean we got signed as a rock
Speaker 3: and roll then, you know what I mean, That's what
Speaker 3: we did. We had two songs we got signed. We
Speaker 3: lied to Atlantic Records. You could do that back then. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know, we had two songs. One was called Kaboos,
Speaker 3: the other was called Lick Me Yeah, and we made it.
Speaker 5: We made a video.
Speaker 3: McGee or Buddy McGee made a video to caboose I'm
Speaker 3: thirty five millimeter tape, so it looked ready to go,
Speaker 3: and Doug Morris founded Atlantic Records and goes, I don't
Speaker 3: know about the song kind of sucks, but this band
Speaker 3: looks fun and this is the grunge area.
Speaker 2: Mind you early sign these fans. They're having fun. That's
Speaker 2: how we got signed.
Speaker 3: Not on music, not in capabilities, not in talent. So
Speaker 3: we had to play catch up, you know. So the
Speaker 3: first record was that Kids in a Candy Store. We'd
Speaker 3: be like doing sex whistle song, red pepper songs with
Speaker 3: a little bit of hip hop in there.
Speaker 2: And as you play more in toward the world.
Speaker 3: You get better as musicians and songwriters, and that led
Speaker 3: to Fly and the rest of the hips.
