Rachel Walmack is in the UK. 13 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: I believe she's in Amsterdam, and we'll talk to her 14 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: coming up and ask her her big moments of the 15 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: year and this damage okay, put that up. Okay, Well, 16 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: Rachel in her heart you're there. And then Lauren Jenkins 17 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: and here's a little bit of her and just give 18 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: up the ghost. I believe she's an answer. Dam two 19 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: are they playing together? They happened to be in the 20 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: same country. So the whole class of twenty nine this 21 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: year was all females. I did it on purpose because 22 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: I want to be able to promote them all year. 23 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: And I think all of them have played or opened 24 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: for me at some point. I know maybe Rachel Walmack 25 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: just did the rhyme and show. Lauren Jenkins came out 26 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: and I did a bunch of stand up shows in 27 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: me to Neil Towns. That a whole tour with me, 28 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: a comedy show. Abby did some shows, and maybe Kaylee's 29 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: just done a little bit. But the goal with the 30 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: class of whatever is to promote them on the radio, 31 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: take them out and let them open, because when they open, 32 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: I paid them radio shows. They don't get paid, they 33 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: just have to do it in The label pays for 34 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: all their feet. They don't get paid by the label either, 35 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: but the label pays to make sure that they're not 36 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: losing money. So they just come out even but if 37 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: they come out with me, they're paid paid, and so 38 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: it's like a like a real show. Um so yeah, 39 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: a lot of these I've taken out the tour and 40 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: promoted it and I just want to check them with 41 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: them again, let you know how how cool they are. 42 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Maybe you hear them and like God, don't listen to 43 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,679 Speaker 1: that music, or I'll stream some of that music. Also, 44 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: gotta stop saying download because it's it's mostly a stream stream. Yeah, 45 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: and I don't download anything. But I think it's I 46 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: think it's just what we've said for so long. I 47 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: mean we had to transition from by that c D 48 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: to download to stream. Yeah, I never thought about that. 49 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: So it's all maybe you'll stream their music, who knows, 50 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: maybe you will download it. Did iTunes leave your phone? 51 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: I think I still I don't know. I just updated. 52 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: I have an iTunes store, but there was a whole 53 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: change where they said they were they were taking it offer. 54 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: But his phones mine is still there. I still have 55 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: a story. Yeah, yeah, me too. I'm looking right now. 56 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: So I guess you still can't download because I'll still 57 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: safe stuff. What do you mean like on my Apple Music? 58 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: I'll save. So you have Apple music? Is you're streaming? Yeah? Interesting? Well, 59 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: so we'll talk to all them. My dog got stung 60 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: in the face by a b today.

When you take it to 72 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: get it fixed, everything's fine, it's not making that noise 73 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: it was making.

How are 85 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: you doing? I'm pretty good. We actually saw each other 86 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: a couple of nights ago. I mean pretty briefly, very briefly. Yeah, 87 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: I mean actually I said at your table for just 88 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: a second because I was those awards shows, because um, 89 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: you and I were both at CMT Artists of the 90 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: Year and they had me do a little thing out 91 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: opening and had me do a carry thing, but and 92 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: I fell back. I was like, job stop it. You 93 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: always did stop it. Um anyway, it was it was 94 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: great to see you. And where are you right now? 95 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: I am in my hotel room in New Orleans getting 96 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: ready for a radio show. Are you playing the show 97 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: tonight with it's you? It's Lindsay playing with you, Linda 98 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: and yeah, yeah, it's it's like everybody that I know, 99 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: I look at this, We're just missing you. Just fill 100 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: it out here. By the way, she was our I 101 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: Heart Country on the Verge artist and um, so that 102 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: was awesome see that. And you just put out Jersey 103 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: on the wall as you're single, and so talk about 104 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: that for a second, because the version that's on the 105 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: radio is a little more upbeat than the one that 106 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 1: I have saved. Is that accurate? And has a kick 107 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: drum in it. Yes, the one that that we originally 108 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: put out was just a guitar vocal, so it was 109 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: kind of cool to build some production around it, for sure. 110 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: And why would you have to do that? I mean, well, 111 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: we wanted to make the living Room Workday version. It's 112 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: special and own thing and like mark the beginning of 113 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: where the song was first created. And um, I'm really 114 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: grateful we got to start with that version because I 115 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: think the strip down like lyric kind of hits a 116 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: little bit harder. But in the collection of this whole 117 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: record that we made, in all of the songs, it's 118 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: kind of fun how they all flow into one another. 119 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: And I like the sort of wrestling part of like 120 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: the way that the kick drum feels like it's like 121 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: a pacing sort of mechanism, and that I think that's 122 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: a big part of the song. It's like I have 123 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: hard questions for God, and it was sort of a 124 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: fun approach to take on the production of what would 125 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: that feel like? So that's where that came from a 126 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: little bit though, is because radio is stupid and they 127 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: won't play a valid So that's what I think, like 128 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: radio saw being so stupid and just play a powerful song, 129 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: because I remember when you came and played that song 130 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: in our studio and a bit on our show. We're 131 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 1: desensitized because we hear a lot of great music all 132 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: the time, and a lot of just wonderful music. But 133 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 1: I remember when you played it and Amy cried in 134 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: the studio, which was one of the only times she's 135 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: ever cried when someone performed. That means so much. Then 136 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 1: you added a kick, drum and a flute and here 137 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: we are. How's how's your last year been? I mean, 138 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: the last six months or so you've been out with Dirk. 139 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: She had a song all over the radio. It's been 140 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: a pretty cool year for you. Huh. Yes, it's been 141 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: so wonderful. I'm having so much fun and being able 142 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: to be on the road and like be at shows 143 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: and hear people a few people out there singing along 144 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: and knowing that the think it's the craziest thing. It's 145 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: been such a wild year too. Kind of step back 146 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: and think about it like that. It's like what was 147 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: happening last year in October, And to think about it now, 148 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: it's a it's kind of surreal. Was it pretty weird? 149 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: Whenever you would look in the crowd and people would 150 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: go from having no idea who you are just as 151 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: an opener to them knowing every word of one of 152 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: your songs. Yes, this was the best thing ever. Oh man. 153 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: It was like especially seeing the little girls out there 154 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: saying and that always gets me because that was me, 155 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: you know, And it's like, you can I love it 156 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: when you can see their faces. And a lot of 157 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: times at the Amphitheaters this summer we're playing early enough 158 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: in the daylight where you can really see people like 159 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: jamming along and that it's just it's such a cool 160 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,239 Speaker 1: feeling and being able to talk to that for the show, 161 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: and it's it's like it's as an opening act. It's 162 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: kind of like, hey, it's nice to meet you guys. 163 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: You have no idea about any of my music yet, 164 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: but I'm here to play some songs for you.

What 383 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: seemed like for months is that did you just stay 384 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: on the road the whole time? I was literally like, 385 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: we were gone for two months straight and it was awesome? 386 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: Was it awesome? Just being like, that's like a rock 387 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: star tour from the nineties when you just go away 388 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 1: and don't come back. I'll just say, Mr Rob Wooks, 389 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: my books, my butt. Even he I was talking about 390 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: this then I was like, this country world. You know, 391 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: it's Thursday through Sunday and then you got the rest 392 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: of the week home. Um, and with him, I mean, 393 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: it was five shows a week, and my voice got 394 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: so much stronger. I feel like my performance is a 395 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: lot better. I still a lot more confident on stage, 396 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,360 Speaker 1: and I'm really thankful for that. But I'll tell you, man, 397 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,919 Speaker 1: I don't know if I could tour like that in 398 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: the future. I want to never turn it down. I 399 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: would never turn down the opportunity. But the Thursday through 400 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: Sunday is definitely more my my speed. That makes sense. Well, 401 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: what about I used to with your boyfriend? Oh yeah, okay, 402 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,479 Speaker 1: Well you're gone for two months. Did he come out 403 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 1: on the road with you? No, so he will come out. 404 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 1: He's a stud. He he always makes sure that we 405 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: never go longer than two weeks without seeing each other. 406 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: So he would come out. Sometimes. I would have, you know, 407 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 1: days off in between, and he'd fly out and we'd 408 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: spend a weekend together. He'd come to a lot of shows. 409 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: So we saw each other four times in those two months. 410 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: It was awesome. I see your West Coast right now. 411 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: I saw in your answers story that your uber driver 412 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: asked what you do for a living, and then he 413 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: pulled up your music on his iPhone. When you heard yourself, happens. Okay, 414 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: but that happens to you too.

You know, but honestly, 492 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: the first thing that ran through my brain is I 493 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 1: don't need this, Like, oh that's cool. I realized drinking 494 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,719 Speaker 1: is very much just a social thing.

I mean, I know how you 643 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,800 Speaker 1: get it. It's distributed through the platforms, But how do 644 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: they know about you? Wherever? It's really not promoted as um, 645 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,399 Speaker 1: you know, robustly as it is here. Well, I don't know. 646 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Like, I feel like you guys were 647 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:55,320 Speaker 1: the first people that played my music ever on radio, um, 648 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: and then over here, I don't know if they've played 649 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: it that much on radio. I think that found out 650 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: that I was playing and then they researched the entire 651 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: album and they memorized it. Um. So you know, in 652 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: the States, like radio is still not playing me. You 653 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: guys were the first people to play any of my music, 654 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: and then over here they just they dig in and 655 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: they play the entire track. So because you were coming over, 656 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: they studied you and we're ready for you. Yeah, I 657 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 1: think it's totally word of mouth. You know, they see 658 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: your name on the bill, and then they download the 659 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: entire album. So what if I just said I was 660 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: coming over there, I didn't show up, but I had 661 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 1: them download all of my stuff and just would they 662 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: learn it anyway? And then just be like, oh, they're disappointed, 663 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: but they still learned everything. They'd probably be pissed, but 664 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: they wouldn't know anything that I had done and we 665 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: both win. Well, yeah, I think, first of all, I 666 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: think that you should come over and play, and if 667 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 1: you want to do like a duo show, we could 668 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 1: totally do that. I would open for you this time 669 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: kind of play. How it would it turns? So you're okay? 670 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 1: So that's why. What else has happened the last few months? Um? 671 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: I just got a tour with brent Aldredge in January, 672 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: which is amazing. I saw that. How did how did 673 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: that come together? I have no idea. I've just been 674 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: fighting to play anywhere and everywhere that I can. Um, 675 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 1: and I think we talked last time when I opened 676 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 1: for Willie Nelson, which was crazy, and then toured with 677 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: and touring with must and I'm bloodline. Um, let me 678 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: ask you a question. Hold on, now that I think 679 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: about you, I see you sometimes on Instagram getting on 680 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: private jets. No so no, no, no, don't say no 681 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 1: because no, no, no, no, yes, that's yes, because more 682 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: than once. Okay, Well, for the record, one time was 683 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 1: you allowed me on your private jet to go and 684 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: open a show for you, which was incredible, and he 685 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 1: helped me pay my rent, so thank you for that. 686 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: And I sold out a T shirt, but we didn't 687 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,879 Speaker 1: put that on. I don't put that online. I don't 688 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,399 Speaker 1: flex that I saw. I didn't I know. But at 689 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,720 Speaker 1: least twice I've seen you on a private plane playing 690 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 1: a show. So the last time Ellen and I which 691 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,839 Speaker 1: I also sold your guitar player because I saw her 692 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: play for you in Chicago and she was so good. 693 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: So I was like, hey, do you have any free dates? 694 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 1: I want to steal you. And she's great and I'm 695 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: stealing her. But we just played a show in Illinois 696 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: in Peoria and our flight got canceled at like midnight, 697 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: and our flight was for super early in the morning, 698 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: and it was a private fight, and so there like, oh, 699 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: no problem, We'll just in the jet. I was like, 700 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: that was an option the whole time. But they flew 701 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: as private. But that's not like a thing, okay, But 702 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 1: it's here's why it seems like a thing, because once 703 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 1: you were opening for somebody to that wasn't me, and 704 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: they flew you out there and you it's more than 705 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 1: once I've seen in a private plane. All I'm saying is, 706 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: don't forget us a little people. Well, all I'm saying 707 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: is that I would rather get paid more and not 708 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: fly on a private plane. I would rather drive myself 709 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 1: to the gig and not fly on a private plane. 710 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: Just don't forget us, don't big time this, That's all 711 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: I'm asking Mr. I'm like, still just super happy that 712 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: I'm not playing for tips at an airport, but I'm 713 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: still trying to pay rent. All right, Well, let me 714 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,479 Speaker 1: ask you a couple of things here.
