1
00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: All right, welcome to episode TOFTE with Gary Levox of

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: Braska Flats Um. About a week ago, I was in

3
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: my house and I haven't drank mountain doing a long time.

4
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: I used to drink it three later a day. I

5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,639
Speaker 1: know where you're going, and so I like, I I

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: love mountain dew. It's my favorite. And so in my house,

7
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, did I in the middle of the

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: night I have some sort of mountain dew stash and

9
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: I just chuck and so I grabbed this can and

10
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: it's just like, I don't know, a third of the

11
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 1: way full, and it was just a spit cannon. Yeah.

12
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: And you know what, when I left, I thought, Dad,

13
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,240
Speaker 1: go on, I left my mountain candle Bobby thing. I

14
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,520
Speaker 1: hope he didn't drink it. Took a day and I thought,

15
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: what did I have a mounta I looked in it

16
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: and I was repulsed. You were on ambience. I was

17
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: just a repulse that I had your mountain dew spit can.

18
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: I don't know how you do it. I even signed it.

19
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 1: You didn't and out you know, if you did, then

20
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: some lucky trash man, because man, you know I saw

21
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 1: you guys. You're doing some promotion now for the new

22
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: EP July thirty one, which we're gonna play this whole

23
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: interview thing on the radio show. This is a long

24
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: form podcast to count down a lot of things. So, um,

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: I saw you guys doing promotion on one of those

26
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: morning talk shows like Good Morning America or something Today show.

27
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: Were you guys together virtually or do you come in

28
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: on the different boxes? Jodan and I were together. Jay

29
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 1: was in h Filton Head playing golf, and are you

30
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: like j we're doing promotion. Least you can do is

31
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: come hang out. Yeah, that's exactly why. Uh, that's what

32
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: we said. But you know he wouldn't do it. So

33
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: it's the whole virtual thing is weird because it doesn't

34
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: really feel like it counts, even though it does. I

35
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: was doing American Idol with the whole last five episodes,

36
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: and I'm doing it from my house. I swear to god,

37
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: I didn't wear pants for network television. Yeah I didn't

38
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: on the Today's show. You're not now, I know it's

39
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: so comfortable now. Uh. The new EP, how They Remember You?

40
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: We released July thirty one, and when I was thinking

41
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: about EPs, have you guys put out in just an

42
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: EP in a long time, never because I WoT think

43
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: you guys are just full straight ahead album. Guys, what

44
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: was this? What made you think about putting out a

45
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: small our projects? Well, because we were actually had this

46
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 1: other project going on, and then we were we had

47
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: these songs like kind of left over from projects that

48
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: we really liked but never had the chance to and

49
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 1: this Quarantine thing kind of put it where we were

50
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: kind of looking at and we were like, man, we

51
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: should finish these out. And so it just came up

52
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: to uh and the Dan Huff got another song that

53
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: he really liked, how They Remember You, which is the

54
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: new single, and then um, so we just kind of

55
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: put it all on an EP and we had seven

56
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: and we're like, let's just go with seven. So Borshet

57
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: it was like, yeah, it's great, So Big Machine put

58
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: it out. Well, it will be out and that's new

59
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 1: right you've being with Scott Board shutout Big Machine? Is

60
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: that new ish? No, We've been there for ten years

61
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: even there that long. Wow, we got lost because of

62
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: Taylor Thanks Bobby, Yeah, I forgot when they're a fourth member. Yeah,

63
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: guys here and then he went to cooking. It was weird.

64
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: So you got seven try, but seven is almost a record,

65
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: to be fair, it I mean it's like it's some way,

66
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: it's like the purgatory of EP T LP. Yeah, you know,

67
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: the whole game has changed. How who knows what to

68
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: do anymore? Some people are just doing singles. People want

69
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 1: to do records. I mean, you know, I missed the

70
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: whole body of work. But to be honest, nobody really

71
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: wants the whole body of work. I agree, even my

72
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: favorite artists like I would rather now consume a couple

73
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: of songs a month and have them consistently come at

74
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: me a couple of times, because what happens with me

75
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: just as a music fan, first and foremost, is that

76
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: you give me thirteen tracks and I'll go through it

77
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: once and not give some songs the fair credit, just

78
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: the acknowledgement they deserve, because sometimes you got to hear

79
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 1: songs to or three times we really love it, and

80
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: I won't do that, like thirteen tracks. Is this too

81
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: much overwhelming? Yeah? And then the artwork nothing really, you know,

82
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: everything that's used to love about music or can't wait

83
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: for a new thing to come out and just kind

84
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: of it's disappeared. The first trick is how they remember you.

85
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: I want to play a little bit of that because

86
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: it's on the radio right now. Remember, I'm curious about

87
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: your voice because you're one of the best singers in

88
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: town and your your your voice is still so pure.

89
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: Have you felt your voice get lower higher through the

90
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: last years? Does it move at all? You know, it

91
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: really has. I think it's gotten stronger for some weird reason.

92
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. I can hit things now how easier

93
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: than I could before. I don't know. Why do you

94
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: think that is? I don't Yeah, I think it's just

95
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: kind of like a muscle, you know, It's just like

96
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: any kind of athlete. And I think the more you

97
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: use it correctly and it stretches and all that kind

98
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: of good stuff, I just kind I don't know. I've

99
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: just been blessed with being able to not lose much.

100
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: How old were you when it started to be Wow,

101
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: Gary is actually better than the other kids or I

102
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: don't know, seventeen year olds. You know, I don't even

103
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: really know, because I mean, like I did some but

104
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: I was still into sports that I really wasn't even

105
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: thinking about music really, you know. And then but like

106
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: high school, I'll do like I would be in the

107
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 1: musicals like South Pacific and Guys and Dolls and all that,

108
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 1: and these show choir kind of things, and and I

109
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: always ended up getting like the you know, like the

110
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: the lead or I have a solo part in something,

111
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: and it was you know, I was probably better than average,

112
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 1: but but it wasn't blown away crowd when they walked out,

113
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: like they weren't like, holy crap, they'll have Well, I

114
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 1: guess you weren't lavox, but like the Gary freaking was

115
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: killing everybody that was. That wasn't a thing early. Yeah, yeah, maybe,

116
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: but I think the soccer was my big things. So

117
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: I think that kind of overshadowed the music things. I

118
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: was a soccer huh do you think you could go

119
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 1: and a I guess it really wasn't MLS. And did

120
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,559
Speaker 1: you try to play in college or no? No, I didn't.

121
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 1: I had I had a scholarship to Taylor University and

122
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: didn't take it. My my stepdad at the time had

123
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: started an electric company, so I was doing that and

124
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is gonna be mine one day. Oh this,

125
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: you know, So I just started making money and you know,

126
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: started making that five seventy five an hour, and I

127
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 1: thought I was big balling. You know, it's crazy to

128
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: hear about how much you love sports. Now I've heard

129
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: stories about you and how good of an athlete you

130
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: still are, and I guess you don't show it a lot.

131
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: But one of my dear friends with Clarence because your manager,

132
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 1: and he was I don't know if it was boxing

133
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 1: or something, and he was like, we were on the

134
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: tour bus, oh yeah, on boxing problem. And they were like,

135
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: we got and I guess you would put on some

136
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: gloves and we're just kind of just, you know, dicking around.

137
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: And he was like, you would not believe how fast

138
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 1: his breaking hands are, and he was like, deceivingly, Lavaka

139
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: is one of the best athletes you know of all,

140
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: because it's a weird thing to be such a good

141
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,679
Speaker 1: athlete and such a great singer. I look at guys

142
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: like you, or a Sam Hunt or a and Go

143
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: or even a Chuck Wicks, like the guy is a

144
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: great athlete and a good looking guy. You guys have

145
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: and I have nothing. You guys have all the elements

146
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: and I have nothing. And I just look at you

147
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: all and here I am fingernails deep in the mountain

148
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: and trying to climb you guys, got your little trolley

149
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: on and just ride up with all the skills that

150
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: God just gifts you so many. Oh that's not true

151
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: at all. That's not true at all. But I know

152
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: what you're saying, Like the not for me, but like

153
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: the Sam Haunts and the Chuck, which they're they're really

154
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,720

160
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: love love her. She's such a great singer. So when

161
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: you were putting together the record, there's only one one

162
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: feature on here rock why ray all. It was just

163
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: one of those things like I mean, she opened she

164
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: did like a couple of shows for us, opened up

165
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: and and like I went out there and we were

166
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: all kind of watching. I was like, God, I had

167
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: no idea, she can blow. She can absolutely kill it.

168
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: And then um so we're just like, man, we should

169
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: quick Fast in the Hurry was kind of fresh on

170
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: our minds, you know, and we're just kind of contracted,

171
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: and uh, we're just like, man, we should ask Rachel.

172
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: She'd be into it. And Clarence manages her too, so

173
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: you're like, just keep it all in the family. And

174
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: she crushed it. Who do you see in town now?

175
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: Where you go? Man? They can just sing like if

176
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: you were doing a Mount Rushmore of current. Let's say

177
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: we gotta put some parimeters on this um. They've had

178
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: to have had a hit in the past five years. Okay,

179
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna eliminate any of the nineties guys that

180
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: maybe you saw on the upper end when you were

181
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: coming in. Who who can really sing Mount Rushmore? Four people?

182
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: That's tough. Carrie Underwood can really sing Rachel rff. Let

183
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: me stop gonna Cary true of falls she goes into

184
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: the studio, it doesn't allow them to touch her voice.

185
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: Do you know that? Really? I don't know. I'm asking you.

186
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 1: I've heard that. Have you heard that? No? I haven't

187
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: heard that, Garth, I've heard that. Do you allow them

188
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: to set your voice? Yeah? Hey, yeah, I want it

189
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: to be great. Yeah, but that's you know, but just

190
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 1: kind of like tones stuff like how much verb and

191
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 1: all that, And I mean, but I'll take pitch corrector

192
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: all day. But you don't need pitch corrector. Well, you know,

193
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: sometimes you have perfect pitch. It's pretty close. It's pretty close.

194
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 1: All right. You got Carrie, go ahead, you get three

195
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:51,479
Speaker 1: more Carrie. Um Ronnie don m hmm, good one. Um.

196
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: I mean for a country country singer, I put Luke

197
00:09:54,760 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: Combs in there. Yeah, and um see there's something still

198
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: having had a hit in front the last five years,

199
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,599
Speaker 1: but I would put um, I don't. I'm gonna miss some,

200
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: but you're gonna miss the lots. I think it's okay

201
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: because there are so many. I'm gonna put Bobby Bones.

202

Speaker 1: to do a solo I'm doing a solo Christian record.

222
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: It's been a dream record of mine forever and I'm

Speaker 1: halfway done with that now and it's I'm so excited

224
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: about it. It's just gonna be great. And I think

225
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: I'm going to do a solo country record right after that. Wow. Now,

226
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: what kind of expectation do you put on yourself in

227
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: the solo country world where you've had You're as successful

228
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: as you could have possibly been, Like, you can't be

229
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: bigger than the flats. So now it's you, how do

230
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 1: you like? What is the goal with you? Same? Yeah,

231
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: I mean the same. I'll just see where God takes it.

232
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: But there's just there's you know, it's you know, sometimes

233
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: it's difficult for the three of us to agree on

234
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: songs to cut and things that I really believe in.

235
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: Most of the time it would work out, but there's

236
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 1: you know, there's just I think, you know, I mean,

237
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: I I feel the responsibility in the in the calling

238
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: to continue to keep singing if Flats does or not. So,

239
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: but there's songs that that I really believe in that

240
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: I love and there, you know, I mean, I don't

241
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: know if they'll be different from Flats because I was

242
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: the lead singer or Flats, so I mean they're all

243
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 1: kind of sound like that, but and maybe not all

244
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: the harmony stuff on there. But there's songs that I

245
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: really truly believe in that I love that I think

246
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,839
Speaker 1: are giants and I think that the world needs to hear.

247
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there, you know, I think they're

248
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: really really good and I've already got some recorded for that.

249
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: So I'm just excited. I'm excited about doing my own thing,

250
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: and you know, and it's excited to see what happens,

251
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: you know, if the Flats get together at some point

252
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: when everything clears off. I mean, I don't know, we'll see,

253
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 1: but I'm going to continue to work and I feel

254
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: like that's that's been my calling and what I need

255
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: to continue to do. And do you know those guys

256
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: as well as anyone if let's say a vaccine happens

257
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: with own it in March of next year, you guys

258
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: decided to go out and play ten shows and just

259
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: this is just a hypothetical. Will they'd be cool with

260
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: you singing your solo songs up there it's out? Yeah,

261
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: yeah they would. Yeah. I mean we all, I mean

262
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: we get along great. We just don't know what's happening.

263
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 1: And you know, everybody kind of you know, look, you know,

264
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: a couple of guys wanted to do their own thing

265
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 1: early on, and it just this Corona thing. It's it's

266
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: just weird. It kind of gave us a year off

267
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: before we were going to take a year off, you know. Yeah,

268
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: So I don't know, it's just just the way it

269
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: worked out. Before I moved, I guess it's about three

270
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: moves ago. But I was living in the condo and

271
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: you looked out the window right on the printer's alley.

272
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: So when you first moved to town, did you guys

273
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 1: play any of those printers alley spots right there. Fiddling steel,

274
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: we played there, but we played all of them. But

275
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: what our main gig was like Mondays and Tuesdays the

276
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 1: fiddling steel, and then we played barbars and we played

277
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: Lonnie's Western Room. We play all those down. What does

278
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: that mean? You would play them? Like talk about him?

279
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 1: What's a Monday night? So a Monday night? Well, when

280
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 1: I first moved to town, it was Jay set up

281
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 1: by the cigarette machine with a little keyboard, and we

282
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: had some tracks like well they call me the Farmer

283
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 1: and that's my name, and we'd sit there and sometimes

284
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: the security guard was doing a person that would be

285
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: in there. But we would play there from nine to

286
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: three on Mondays and Tuesdays. Then we started building the following.

287
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: Then we met and Jodan came in and then um.

288
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: But we played from nine to three and take breaks,

289
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: and then we take a break, and then we go

290
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: to barbers across the street and play over there and

291
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: sit in a carryat I and we just stayed in

292
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: the alley. We're gonna be somewhere every night playing music.

293
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: What does that mean to develop a following when you're

294
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: playing small bars? With without social media, Like what does that?

295
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: Just the same people coming to see you. Yeah, just

296
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: the same people would come in. They knew when we

297
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: were playing. And what was great back then too, was

298
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: like Mark Chestnut, Toby Keith and all that. So when

299
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: everybody was off the road, everybody would go to Printer's

300
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: alley and hang. So he might be playing with Mark

301
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: Chestnuts guitar player, um, you know, Toby Keith drummer, Um,

302
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: you know Martina McBride's you know, acoustic player. It was just,

303
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: I mean, it's what country music was, you know. Then

304
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: they knocked it all down and built you know, I

305
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: used to look condo that used to live. But what

306
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: what was the final straw that made you come to Nashville?

307
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: You know what. I was sitting in my mom's kitchen

308
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: and I was twenty I was twenty seven and I

309
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: was sitting in my mom's kitchen and I was singing

310
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: along with the radio, and I was like, it just

311
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: hit me. And at that moment, I just kind of

312
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: looked up and I said, God, I feel like you've

313
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: given me some type of gift to sing, and I'm

314
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: so sorry that I haven't used it. It was just

315
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: the weirdest thing, and I was like, I'm gonna do it.

316
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. So I took out because I

317
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: worked for the Board of UM Development only disabled for

318
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: ten years. It's right out of high school. So I

319
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: had to leave that job, you know, state jobs. Sold everything,

320
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: and uh, moved to town and and but that's what

321
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: it was in my kitchen. I really I sold everything

322
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: through everything in my truck, moved and moved to Nashville.

323
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: Were you dominating karaoke competitions back home? Yeah? Yeah, I

324
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: was crushing them, Yeah, because that was the extra hundred bucks,

325
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: you know, if you want. I was like, you know,

326
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: if I had hit three on Friday, the extra three

327
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: hundred dollars, you know, then Saturday, and there's one place

328
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: on Sunday. But then they caught on. So if you

329
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: won too much, then you couldn't win anymore, you know,

330
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: So then you had to start venturing out. You going

331
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: on the East, fake mustache, out of town, karaoke clothes. So, uh,

332
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 1: you and Jay obviously are related with with Joe Don?

333
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: Did Jay find Joe Don? Who's Who's what was that? So?

334
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: Jay was the bandleader for Shelley, right, and then he

335
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: hired Uh Joe Don to play guitar for Shelly, and

336
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: and so that he had Jabe been telling me about

337
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: Jodan how you know high ten and our Grady scenes

338
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: and plays. So he came down at the Feeling Steel

339
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: Guitar Bar one night and it our guitar player didn't

340
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: show up, so he invited Jode on in and we

341
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 1: did Uh Church on the Cumberland Road was the first

342
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,239
Speaker 1: song we ever did, and the rest was history. We

343
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: were like, wow, I don't know what that was, but

344
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: that was I mean, it was just it was incredible.

345
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 1: So we asked him and how was that? How quickly?

346
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,199
Speaker 1: And tell you had a name? Though it took a

347
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: while because we were because I think Jaberd and I

348
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 1: were going by Deuces Wild and then there was three

349
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: of us in there, so deuces Wild didn't make any sense,

350
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: and then you know it was hard to come up

351
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: with a name. And uh, but we we sat there

352
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: and we were thinking, so we're oakl Ohio because Jodan

353
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: from Oklahoma is just terrible. And then so it was awful.

354
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: And so this piano player named Jelly Roll was in

355
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 1: town or was playing with us, and he was like,

356
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 1: man back in the sixties. I used to have a

357
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: band called Rascal Flats and um, we're like, what's it means? Jelly?

358
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: He was like, hell, I don't know, no idea. We're

359
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: like all right, So we literally wrote on a napkin.

360
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 1: Uh and we paid him five bucks for the name,

361
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 1: so if it did work, we get sued later. So

362
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: that's the store. And how quickly that you guys were like, Okay,

363
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna do this until you actually started to make

364
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: any sort of money from and then to t bigger

365
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: than just a bar, meaning a record label. How it was?

366
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 1: Did that happen pretty quick when people heard you? Yeah?

367
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,199
Speaker 1: You know, Um there was ce So I moved to

368
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: town February and we got signed to ninety nine and then, um,

369
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,479
Speaker 1: but we were humping I mean we were killing it

370
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: every night. We were playing somewhere every night. And then

371
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: um yeah, so but we were working for tips only

372
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 1: and then we've got paid forty bucks a night and

373
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: then uh so the first real money was it was

374
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: when we signed our deal with Lyric Street Records. Did

375
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 1: you guys have a baby act for anybody? As that

376
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: third act where they really were like, hey, we'll look

377
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 1: out for you, you know, what all of them did

378
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: really and that was like our first tour ever was

379
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,239
Speaker 1: Jody Massina and Jody kind of did that for us,

380
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: and then it was Toby Keith. Toby really took us

381
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: under his wing, and then Brooks and Done. I mean,

382
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: really you go out there and try to steal everything

383
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 1: that that they've got their fans. You learned so much.

384
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: And then Brooks and Dunne and then I mean they

385
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: all kind of took us under their wing and really

386
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: showed us the ropes and you know, how to put

387
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 1: a tour together and how to treat fans. And you know,

388
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: because we were on that the Brooks and dunn thing

389
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: where they had jugglers and stuff all day long, you know.

390
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, well, I mean we learned from all of them,

391
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: all of us kind of kind of took them, took

392
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: us under their wing and really showed us the ropes.

393
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: And they were I forget who it was that told us.

394
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 1: They were like, you see all those fans out there,

395
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 1: you need to go steal every single one of them.

396
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,479
Speaker 1: And that's what we told everybody that's open for us

397
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 1: since then. The uh, how they remember you the EP

398
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 1: when it comes out? Why do you name song and

399
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: different people give me different ones. But why do you

400
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 1: name the whole project after a song? You know? I

401
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: don't know. I guess just because it's easy. It's the

402
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: first thing, and it's hard to encompass, like because all

403
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 1: of it has a different feel and the whole body

404
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 1: of work feels different. You know. Let's you know, put

405
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: something like the Craftsmanship record. That would have been the

406
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: other time spent record. You guys, you had seven you

407
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 1: have seven songs on this thing? Did all? Is it

408
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: a rule that three of three of you have to

409
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: agree on the song or two or three? What's what's

410
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: the dynamic there? Pretty much? Yeah? Pretty much? And then

411
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: but I'll get in there sometimes just come in. I

412
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: just think I hate this song. I'm not doing it.

413
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: You ever done that to a song it end up

414
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 1: being a massive hit where it's like, I don't know

415
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: if this is the one. Um, I'm sure they're I'm

416
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: sure that Jay has probably been the worst at that

417
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 1: Jays because he's yeah, like songs like no, I'm not

418
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 1: doing that, you know, like like Sarah Bath you know

419
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: about skin. I don't want to sing about cancer. I

420
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: don't want to do you know, That's that's it's a

421
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: tough subject I don't want to sing about. So there's

422
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: a hit, and it's happened a couple of other times.

423
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: We were like, hey, Jamie, whatever other songs that you hate? Man,

424
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: that'd be great the most. So you and Jamie Fox

431
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: don't know his person, but when you look at overall

432
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 1: talents and what he's able to do act oscar seeing

433
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 1: hit record, comedy, freaking in Living Color, I seem do

434
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 1: impressions like I don't know that I can name a

435
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: more talented person period overall than Jamie Fox. Baskets just

436
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: didn't play basketball. How did you guys? Has become friends?

437
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: He I had got a deal offered to me by

438
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: Capitol Records in early on, like a pop deal, and

439
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 1: so I went to l A, my old manager at

440
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: that time. He used to work for Jamie and um,

441
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: so ended up going there, staying there, and uh, after

442
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: I've turned that deal down, I ended up just staying

443
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: living with Jamie for a few months, just staying with him,

444
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 1: and then we're just and he had just lived together

445
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: and just started the w he started just started with

446
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 1: the Jamie Fox Show on the w B, and so

447
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: he was just getting going. I mean, his comedy stuff

448
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: was happening. But he's truly one of them. He might

449
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: be the most talented person I've ever seen. He's great

450
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 1: at absolutely everything. I mean not just great, but I

451
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: mean sets the bar for I mean comedy talent. I

452
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 1: mean his the way he plays piano, and I mean

453
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: he's just and and he loves music. He loves country music,

454
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 1: he loves all genres of music, and he can act.

455
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's not fair. It's not fair

456
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: at all. It sounds like he's a good dude too.

457
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 1: He's a great dude, which sucks you kinda want to

458
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: hate something. Yeah, he's from texts. I never liked you

459
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: because that's just you have it all. You just you

460
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: have it all. Yeah, and I'm in covening. Yeah, I'm

461
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: envious and I'm covering. Life is the Highway was never

462
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: a single, right, It just became a smash kind of

463
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: because people liked it, which is rare. Yeah, the Cars movie,

464
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,959
Speaker 1: you know, and then radio picked it up because it

465
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: was just doing so good and just kind of they

466
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 1: played it. But it was never a single and really

467
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: one of the songs that I would assume you guys

468
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: are associated most with, depending on what the age group. Yeah,

469
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah it's funny because I was just um,

470
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,919
Speaker 1: just doing a singing with a buddy of mine, Jonathan

471
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: mc renalds in the Christian world, the gospel world, who's amazing.

472
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: He's the same way, so talented, so gifted. Not fair

473
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: coveting my neighbor that's what I'm doing with him too,

474
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: because it's just ridiculous. But anyway, his his assistant who

475
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: knows nothing about country music, never even heard a Rascal flash.

476
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: But new Life's Highway, Life's the Highway, the original version.

477
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: Don't tell me, is it like Eddie cock now who

478
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: sings Life Highway? Tom cochrane. I get Eddie money and

479
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: Tom cochrane mixed up because to me, the same person,

480
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: what's the most profitable song you guys have put up

481
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: for me? The ones I wrote fast Cards, Freedom and

482
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: I melt and bob that head and Summer Nights and

483
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 1: all that. But you know, I mean, all in all, broke,

484
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 1: it's gotta be broken Road or what hurts the most.

485
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 1: If someone says, hey, Gary, what are gonna want you

489
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: What do you pick? Broken Road in my wish? I mean,

490
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: those are always the ones that they ask it is. Yeah,

491
00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: somebody asked me to sing it a wedding. I tried

524
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: I was all in it. I was all in it,

525
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: so was I. But I sucked like I have. I

526
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 1: have like one small range. I can do comedy in

527
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 1: and don't really get out of it. But I would

528
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: sing at church and they were so nice to me,

529
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: and I used to I would think. I went to

530
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: Mountain Pie Baptist at rock Sunday nights, Rockets Sunday Nights,

531
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: and then I would go somewhere else. And we had

532
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: a white church in a black church, and I'd go

533
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: over to black church too sometimes and I would sing

534
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,439
Speaker 1: over there because our town still was segregated. Still is.

535
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 1: There's a railroad track in the middle and White quarters

536
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 1: Black quarters a wild still going to my town today. Yeah,

537
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: and um. But I would go to both churches and

538
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: I would go over and they really made me feel special.

539
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 1: I was like, I can go you canna deal right now.

540
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: I was like thirteen almost, Like I would go back

541
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: and my mom be like they were they were clapping

542
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: so hard for me, like I might actually be good. Yeah,

543
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 1: yeah they was. They were just lovely people. Had nothing

544
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: to do with me. They're like blessing. They were bringing

545
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: me in here, Lord Jesus blessed. Yeah it was not.

546
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: You were a big churchy. Is that where you kind

547
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: of get your confidence at the beginning. Yeah, yeah, just

548
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 1: being around that, just being in that atmosphere, and I mean,

549
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: and you could, you know, you get to visually see

550
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: the power of music when you're in church, you know,

551
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: because you know, I went to Joyce Avenue Church of God,

552
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 1: which is the Pentecostal church. So I mean, everybody was,

553
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: you know, stomping and clapping. They were weren't sitting there.

554
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 1: So it was Yeah, and Sunday nights were the best.

555
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 1: They were just the best. Music was rocking. It was great.

556
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 1: It was awake on Sunday night. Yeah. And Wednesday night

557
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: was because I would go Sunday Sunday night. Wednesday night.

558
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,199
Speaker 1: Wednesday was like a half version of Sunday night. It

559
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: was still nighttime, but not everybody was there, but it

560
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: still felt but it's a little looser to on Wednesday night,

561
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,919
Speaker 1: so you could you could go in on Wednesday night

562
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: and actually do some of the like the d C

563
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,199
Speaker 1: talks like for fun, you can do that on Sunday night.

564
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: It was straightforward rocket ages like don't don't don't be off.

565
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,159
Speaker 1: But on Wednesday night, if you wanted to do some

566
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: Michael W. Smith, you wanted to, they were cool with that. Yeah,

567
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: it were because it's a little looser, a little looser.

568
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: Everybody had to go to work on Thursday, so there's

569
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,639
Speaker 1: like it's just go have fun, go fun. Well listen, Uh,

570
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: I'm pumped. Came by. It's I think the last four

571
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: times I've seen you've been in a camouflage piece of

572
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: clothing and I'm kind of in a fishing camera over day.

573
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: So the fish. Yeah, that's weird. It is a camera,

574
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: but it's like water. So is that if you fall

575
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: in the fish? Don't know? Well, I think it's when

576
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: you're standing over the boat. They don't see the lure.

577
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: I think. I don't really don't know. I don't know.

578
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: I have no idea. We're just making stuff up. Are

579
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: you still hunt a lot? Yeah? Right now. It's planting

580
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff and getting ready to

581
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: now checking cameras and we got but yeah, don't you

582
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: feel bad like the animals will have cameras to see

583
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: when you're in the woods. No, but they they've got

584
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: cameras in their nose and their eyes. And their gears.

585
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 1: You know, it's tough, and that's the that's the thrill

586
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 1: of it, is trying to outsmart wild animal. The turkeys

587
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: are always the hardest for me. Yeah, thinking their eyesight's

588
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: ridiculous because they know when you're there and when you're coming.

589
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: If you could, if they could smell, we'd never kill one.

590
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: You'd never shoot one. They also look up in the rain.

591
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: Oh it's crazy. Well listen, I know you've got things

592
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: that do. What do you do? What's what's the fancy

736
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,919
Speaker 1: That's kind of you in your sleep. Probably the Temptations

00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 1: Papa was a rolling Stone nineteen seventy two. Their final

738
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:26,520

00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: and when he died, oh he lived. This was a

740
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: long seventy two man. So they were a band for

741
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 1: a good while there, because they were a band in

742
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 1: the fifties, so three decades. I saw a story that said,

743
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: there's only been one artist for four different decades to

744
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: have a hit. Who's that? Yeah? Who do you think?

745
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 1: I know? Who it? Does? You do? It may even

746
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,439
Speaker 1: be five or six decades, Mike, if you find out

747
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 1: the artists are band, hold on. Let me let Mike

748
00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 1: pull up the context of it and see if you

749
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 1: can name it. Um. Only one artist has had a

750
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 1: top forty album in every decade since the sixties, sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties,

751
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: two thousands, two thousands, tens, seven decades. What artists do

752
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: you think has had that? Wow? Wow, wow wow. I'm

753
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: thinking the Rolling Stones, But no, probably not, because they

754
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 1: must have had one in this decade, so they had

755
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 1: to have one this year. A number one What was

756
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: it again, Mike, Yeah, number a top forty album, A

757
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,760
Speaker 1: top forty album, not a number one top forty album.

758
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 1: This is different from this list. Who do you think

759
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,560
Speaker 1: it is? And when do you think they started? Well, listen,

760
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: they've been at for seven inside of seven decades. He's dude,

761
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: this is crazy. I don't know, you'll get it. Ah,

762
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: so album this hadn't been this year. I mean it's

763
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:48,439
Speaker 1: not Garth So. But seven decades. You're talking about fifty

764
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,800
Speaker 1: years for sure, and then a little bit on each side,

765
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 1: like late in that first one. And then obviously I

766
00:39:54,960 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 1: have no idea Bob Dylan wows animate because he just

767
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 1: released an album that's pretty amazing. All right, go ahead, Well,

768
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: I just want to I wonder what Bob Dylan's thinking

769
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: right now with what's going on in the world and protests,

770
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 1: because he started he started his career doing this protesting

771
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: what was right during civil rights and they just did not.

772
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: He's probably seen it a few times though, right, But

773
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 1: but he quit completely, and he even would do interviews

774
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: and say like, that's not me anymore. Man, I don't

775
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,359
Speaker 1: do that. You fight your own fights. I wonder if

776
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 1: he felt like he was becoming too much the protest

777
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: guy and he couldn't get across other messages because people

778
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: only wanted to protest Bob Dylan. Yes, I think that's true, yes,

779
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: and that he didn't feel any more or less about

780
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 1: but he just didn't want to be that guy anymore.

781
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: It's just weird because man, his first hits, his first

782
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: music was pure protest. Everything he did was protests, and

783
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,399
Speaker 1: now he was the protest guy. And now it's like,

784
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 1: you know, you don't he's not touching any of that.

785
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: Share believe that number. Hold on it though. But I

786
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,760
Speaker 1: think Bob Dylan recently did a song that was pretty

787
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 1: protesting really in this new on this new album, Yeah,

788
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 1: I think so. Or he released some stuff that was

789
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: like a ten minute song about oh yeah, So you're

790
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: probably right about all that, but I'm just trying to

791
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 1: think back. I think recently he kind of got back

792
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: into that lane a little bit because like Bob dyn't

793
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: release a ten minute song about today. Okay, I was

794
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 1: to go back and listen to then and then he

795
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: was supposed to have a number one album this week,

796
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,080
Speaker 1: but he got beat out by a Little Baby. Uh

797
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 1: dub baby. I think it all seven decades, little baby

798
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 1: it beat him at least once. There's differing baby and

799
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 1: little baby. A Little Babies had a number one for

800
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 1: four weeks. Is a Little Baby rock star? Yeah? Pull

801
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: it up? Um, I don't care, pull it. I share

802
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,720
Speaker 1: believe that number three. That's the biggest song of her career.

803
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think so. Taking sunny and

804
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:57,320
Speaker 1: share out of it still may yes, probably, I'm saying

805
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: not so much so that you don't have to talk

806
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,879
Speaker 1: about it, because she would have mike if you pull

807
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 1: that down so I can sing these other songs. He

858
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,000
