Speaker 1: Here you go, that's a hit. Marva Qui staying on

9
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: my l T shirt. She was killing me in that miniskirt,

10
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: skipping knocks on the livery by the real role trash.

11
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 1: She had a sun Tan, light and red. At number four,

12
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: a new artist that I really like named Harper Gray

13

18
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: new song called an Air that Kills. By the way,

19
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: it's all instrumental, but it feels like it's a movie

20
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: when you're listening. Here you go. I feel I should

21
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: write words over this rap, over it anything. I just listen.

22
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: I'm not going to spend time listening to this, I

23
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 1: don't think. But I do think it's interesting when people

24
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: will kind of hop out and do something a little

25
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 1: different and on their own, like with this project. You know,

26
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: he's not trying to go solo. He's like, I got

27
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: a little itch to scratch, and but I do really

28
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: like the Luminears. At number two, Laney Wilson has a

29
00:01:54,040 --> 00:02:07,960

Speaker 1: out called Fresh Because It's so said Dan Sweet pos

32
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: around my bandone large, it's good so French. You know.

33
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: There's a Billie Eilish song out and I'll ask for

34
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: your health here. It did made my top five, but

35
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: I think I should, you know, actually recognize that it's out.

36
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: It's with Rosaliah My. I don't how to pronounce it,

37
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: lo Vas all of it go ahead will be that okay?

38
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: And what does that mean? You're going to forget? I

39
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: know I'm gonna forget, but what does that mean? The

40
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: song title? Yeah, like you're good to forget? Something. Oh,

41
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: I thought you men, I was gonna forget how to

42
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: say that time you're heard to forget? That's the song title. Okay,

43
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: do you have a clip of that? That Billie Eilish

44
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: stuff is just consistently a little too dark for me,

45
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: very whispery. Yeah, this feels like it's a sex scene

46
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: between two people who shouldn't be doing it in a movie.

47
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: You know, like there's cheating happening, and it's like when

48
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: they get away and think slightly against the rules. It's just, yeah,

49
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: it's a little too dark for me. New albums out today.

50
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: Willie Jones released his debut album Right Now Fraternity, which

51
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: is Bond Scott pre a C d C which Bond

52
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: Scott was the lead singer originally who died Now Brian

53
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: Johnson's the lead singer. But that's out. It's box that

54
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: Steve Hackett Lee Rocker from the Straight Cats. I think

55
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: that's pretty much it. Not a lot of music this week, honestly.

56
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: Music news. Eric Church is releasing one to three albums

57
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: in April. The first one is called Heart Out April.

58
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: Here's the trend. Morgan Wanlan puts that to Church puts

59
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: out three. I heard Luke Bryan's got a nine album

60
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: coming up. Yeah, they're just gonna out album each other.

61
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: Now here's the shipment of records. Uh, the first one's Heart,

62
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: then there's Soul, and then there's one that's called End

63
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 1: like the End Sign. What is that called the ampers

64
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: And it's only available on vinyl First Church Choir members.

65
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: By the way, you'll probably be able to get it

66
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: to eventually somewhere else, but that's just me guessing. So

67
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: Heart and Soul, So Heart, Soul, whatever you get it.

68
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 1: There's three albums, Heart and Soul, but and only goes

69
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: to the choir, all right. Speaking of Eric Church, Eric

70
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: Church and R and B singer Jasmine Solomon will team

71
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: up form the national anthem at the Super Bowl. The

72
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: game is February seven on CBS. The last time two

73
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: singers performed it together was Aaron Neville and Rita Franklin

74
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: at Super Bowl in Detroit. Lady A the newest members

75
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: of the Grand Old Opry. They were invited Thursday by

76
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: Darius Rutger during a taping of the Grand ol Opera

77
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: Nine Years of Country Music Special. Their membership becomes effective immediately,

78
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 1: which was a bit odd to see them be invited

79
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: and they were already members, because usually what happens is

80
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: you get invited, then you have the night where you're inducted.

81
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: But I guess because of COVID, it's like, all right,

82
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: we want you to remember, and you remember because you

83
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 1: can't really do the big pomp and circumstance. That show

84
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: should be interesting. I'm supposed to be a part of

85
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: it that because I worked with the opery and play

86
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: the opera a lot. But the struggle for me is

87
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: that show is on the same night that American Idol debuts.

88
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: But I don't do the first episodes of Vital because

89
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: I was off shooting my other show. I don't know

90
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen, but hopefully I can still be a

91
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: part of the opera show. I think it'd be pretty cool.

92
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: Dolly Parton's brother dies Randy Parton, has died of cancer.

93
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: He was a singer and musician who played in Dolly's band,

94
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: also had a show of his own at Dollywood, probably

95
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: best known for his duet with Dolly Old Flames Can't

96
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: Hold a Candle to You, which, by the way, Dolly

97
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: celebrated her seventy five birthday on Tuesday, Brandy Clark postponed

98
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 1: are tour. She's lightest artist to postponed or canceled tour DIDs.

99
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: I mean you kind of have to write it's getting there. Yeah,

100
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: it's getting there in what way? I feel like it's

101
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: not near close to being there? Well, Tori, you like,

102

105
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: she announced a long time ago and rescheduled, so then

106
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: it's like done, got it? Okay? I was thinking, because

107
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: you're not gonna go, We're gonna start touring in February,

108
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 1: and then yeah, so it was the tour that originally

109
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: was played and then rescheduled like Marion had, like Mary okay.

122
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: got to two or their left hip to be squared

123
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: by Huey Lewis and Metallica. They match exactly. Someone posted

124
00:07:50,960 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: this mash up on YouTube. Check it out. I feel

125
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: like they sped up the vocals a bit, so it

126
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,119
Speaker 1: doesn't match perfectly. They said that it's a nice little

127
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: mix that someone did, but that's sped up the Metallica stuff.

128
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: It's so fun to hear, all right. Cool. Barry Gibb

133
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: realize really the impact of the Bags. I knew their songs,

134
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 1: but the impact in general until watched that documentary. It

135
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,839
Speaker 1: is fantastic. I mean, they were before me. But you

136
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 1: just realized what a legend this guy was. I mean,

137
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: holy crap. They got famous like three times, all different levels,

138
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 1: and after they weren't famous anymore, they wrote massive hits

139
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 1: for people, including Islands on the Stream. Taylor Swift's two

Speaker 1: gotta find a spot somewhere alright. Check out movie Mike's

154
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: movie podcast, Thank you guys, alright with Hardy here in

155
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: the studio. We never met before this, which is weird.

156
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,679
Speaker 1: Could you've been around for a bit now and I've

157
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: been around for a bit, but we didn't even run

158
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: into each other the few chance times that we were

159
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,679
Speaker 1: both out, you know what, m yeah, yeah, yeah a

160
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: c M S. I feel like to the last time

161
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 1: I was at like an actual awards show, like a

162
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: red carpet where people were you know, pre COVID had

163
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,719
Speaker 1: was like over a year ago obviously, so um yeah,

164
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 1: I think I've only literally seen you like once ever,

165
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: like in passing then. But I mean except for kind

166
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: of the would you say, that's a mullet not a

167
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: mullet longer it's it's it's a weird tweenter. Other than that,

168
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: I would say something, we're similarishly looking. Yeah, I would think,

169
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: so we got that we're thinner than me, generic white.

170
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: We're both generic white guys though that have dark rimmed glasses.

171
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: You can still pull off the flat bill cap. Once

172
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: I turned forward this last year, I was like, I'm out.

173
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: I go hats anymore, not hats, but I can't do

174
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: flat bills, and I feel like I'm a little too

175
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 1: old to really rock the flat one. I think that

176
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: for the most part, every body is too old. I

177
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 1: think they're like just going away. For the most part.

178
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 1: It's literally talking somebody about that earlier. It's like people just,

179
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: no matter who you are, look less cool these days

180
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 1: on a flat bill. I don't know. Why has it

181
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: been a bit odd to finally get recognition as part

182
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: of the artist and you really can't do anything with it?

183
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: What do you mean, well, because here you have number

184
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: one song on the radio, you have a ton of

185
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: songwriting hits, but nobody outside of our community knows who

186
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: the songwriters are. For the most party, that's that's a

187
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 1: celebrated job, a well paying job if you hit big

188
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: inside of our bubble. Yeah, but you can't go to

189
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: you know, Tupelo or Lexington and play a full show

190
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: as a songwriter. No, you can't sell out you know,

191
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: rupp Arena. No, definitely not so your your success as

192
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: an artist, and you can tell me if I'm wrong.

193
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: It's mostly you're the peak of it has been when

194
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: we can't do crap. Yeah, that's true, Okay, I get

195
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: what you're saying. Um, Yeah, it's been tough dude. Um

196
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: And and I really felt like I can think about timeline.

197
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: Our last few shows were uh, I guess around this

198
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: time last year and we were finally um, you know,

199
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: selling out like bigger, biggest rooms and stuff. And I

200
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: mean our set was like amazing and we were really

201
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: dialed in and and everything went away. So um. But yeah,

202
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: it's been it's been kind of tough on that end.

203
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: But the sungwriting school, I mean it's like I get

204
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: to play covers quote unquote, and you said that I wrote,

205
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: and so I kind of don't have to do real

206
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: covers and and get to play some of the stuff

207
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: that I've written, and I try to explain it live

208
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: and I don't know if it translates, you know, if

209
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: people really are listening. But um, yeah, that's cool. I

210
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: wonder how many people, because again we're so into the

211
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: industry in different ways, but I wonder how many people

212
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: that go to a show that don't know the ends

213
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: of it actually know what you're saying when you're talking, going, hey,

214
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 1: I wrote God's Country from Blake Shelton, and then you

215
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: play it and how many go, oh, yeah, he's governing

216
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: this on This is a good one. Yeah, I probably

217
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: a lot. I would think so too. I think we

218
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: give ourselves too much credit that people listened everything we say. Yeah,

219
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: I think so, especially like in bars like arenas and stuff.

220
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: I are probably different. I haven't gotten to do that

221
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: in arenas obviously, but um, but like in bars and

222
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 1: they're loud and everybody's drunk, and and do you know

223
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: that they're probably not paying attention. You're number one as

224
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: an artist song, your first one is. And this is

225
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 1: mostly what I was referring to, because I know you've

226
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: you've built a base and you've opened up for other

227
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: big artists, but for you to have a song that

228
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: has extreme massive hill and people to go, oh, it's

229
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: the guy that did one beer like that hasn't been

230
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: able to happen quite yet. No, I mean because no,

231
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: we haven't really played shows since it happened. Let me

232
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: play this first. Here is one beer on the record.

233
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: This hits slightly different than the rest of the songs.

234
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: So whenever this was decided to go to you know, radio,

235
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: conventional radio, was someone really pushing that and it was like, Wow,

236
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: we can't believe we're gonna do this, or was that

237
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 1: kind of the consensus to go with that song. Yeah,

238
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: it was just the Internet. It was data of it

239
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: stood I mean oddly enough to It was on Hicks tape.

240
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: It wasn't even originally on my um My Rock, my

241
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: actual record. It was a Higgs tape song. And of

242
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: all the songs we knew we were probably gonna do

243
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: a single from Higgs tape, and Seth England kept saying like, dude,

244
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: it's gonna be one beer you just watch and I

245
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: was like, okay, and uh, sure enough, I mean exponentially

246
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: beat everything else on the record. And and I've always

247
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: been uh I say always, I've only been doing this

248
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: a couple of years. But like anything that I cut,

249
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: I would be willing to do to have as a single.

250
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: So whatever that they, you know, say, is blowing up

251
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: on you know whatever Internet, any app or whatever, I'm

252
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 1: good to go with. So I just said, let's let's

253
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: do it. I know it's different, but go for it.

254
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 1: There's only ever been one of the person to say

255
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: that in that way to me when when doing these

256
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: long form conversations, and he said, you know what, I

257
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: write almost all my stuff, not always like I'll take

258
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: a couple of songs that that I don't write because

259
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: I'm a songwriter and I appreciate songwriters. And he said,

260
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: but if I cut it, I just go, it's good

261
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: enough to put out. So you decide, because I wouldn't

262
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: have cut it if I didn't think it was good.

263
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: And that other that was Chris Stapleton, who goes, I

264
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: cut it, I gotta believe in it, So label you

265
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: take it and do what you're good at, because I

266
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: already did what I'm good at. That's how I feel

267
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: pretty much exactly the same. I'm cool with anything. And

268
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: I know there's kind of a whole spectrum of of

269
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: sonically of of stuff that I put out, But I'm

270
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 1: cool with anything going out there. When you move to town,

271
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: uh ten and a half years ago, that's when you

272
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: moved here officially? Yes, when did you come to town

273
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: the first time? Ago? I can't believe people get paid

274
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: to do that. Um, about eleven years ago. Well, my sister, So,

275
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: my sister moved here before I did. She's a year

276
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,359
Speaker 1: and a half older than me to do music. Yes, originally,

277
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: and now she's you know, found her own path and

278
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: she's doing something completely are different. But um, and so

279
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: I was in like late high school like senior year

280
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: high school slash junior college. And she was going to

281
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: Belmont and she hit me up and she was I

282
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: just started like writing songs and stuff. And she was like, hey,

283
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: I don't know like what you're trying to do with

284
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: your life pretty much, but there's a thing called a

285
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: publishing deal, and you there's a whole industry where you

286
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: get paid to write songs if you ever wanted to

287
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: do that. And I just kind of on a whim,

288
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: was like sure, and just moved up here and and

289
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: you know, that's kind of when everything started. So you

290
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: moved up here from Mississippi. Where were you living because

291
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: you're from Philadelphia, Mississippi. Yeah, I played up from Arkansas

292
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: and we played a lot of ball all around you know, Arkansas,

293
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: Mississippi and Alabama. Have you ever been there? Yeah, I've

294
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: been through really Yeah, I've been through almost all of Mississippi.

295
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: You just when you don't have when you don't come

296
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: from a place that has a lot, you go to

297
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: other places that don't have a lot. Yeah. Sure, wow,

298
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: that makes sense. Yeah, so totally, you just move around.

299
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I've been through there a couple of times.

300
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 1: And so you were living there in high school? Is

301
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: that when you moved out to high school. I moved.

302
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: I went to one year of junior college, and it

303
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: was like a joke. I mean, I didn't know what

304
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: I wanted to do, and I was such a terrible student,

305
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: and I ended up going to college here. But um,

306
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: I just I knew I needed to leave too. So

307
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: I was technically in UM. I would come home on

308
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: the weekends. But Decatur, Mississippi, which is like twenty five

309
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: minutes away from Philadelphia. UM. But yeah, technically I was

310
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. I want I moved here, so you move

311
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: up here to go to school. Yeah, I went to

312
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: MT s U UM, and so I lived in Nashville

313
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: for the summer and then I went lived in Murfreysboro

314
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: for like a year, and then I moved back and

315
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: just commuted for the rest of the time. When you're

316
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: at MT. S U, who has a good music school, Yeah,

317
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: it's like the poor man's Belmont. Yeah, that's why I

318
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 1: said it's a good music school. You know, Belmont's. It's

319
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: like the end of music. That's like the castle on

320
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: top of the hill. Yeah, Like, you graduate, you could

321
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: get a number one record, but you go and you

322
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: study songwriting there, What in the world do you learn

323
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: in school as a songwriter? You know, it was really interesting.

324
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: Um and I hate saying this, but the class itself,

325
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: you kind of either got it or you don't. And

326
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's the I learned more about publishing

327
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,959
Speaker 1: and like the music industry and kind of how not

328
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: to get screwed in a contract and which that's what

329
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: lawyers afford to. But um, I learned more about that,

330
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: I think than the actual craft of writing a song.

331
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: But I did learn a lot about publishing and a

332
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: lot of music industry terminology and like three sixty deals

333
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I I really got. Um, I

334
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: got a lot. I took a lot in from that

335
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: based on that major. And also you meet people who

336
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: then introduce you to people who then introduce you to people. Yeah, totally,

337
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: And that's and that's what I always do at It's

338
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 1: like I understand that if I didn't do that, I

339
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: definitely wouldn't be here. And I and I kind of

340
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: had a weird college experience and and only had a

341
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: couple of friends. So I stayed in my room a

342
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: lot and just really learned how to write songs by myself.

343
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: And if I didn't do that, you know, I wouldn't

344
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: have kind of developed my portfolio for signing a publishing

345
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: deal and all that. So it's definitely worth it. Did

346
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: you finish school? Yeah? I have a degree, dude, I

347
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: believe it or not, I definitely do. It's in. It's

348
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 1: in uh commercial songwriting, which is insane. So you finished school,

349
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: you're in Nashville full time? How long and I assume

350
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: you finish school twenty three around that age? Yeah? How

351
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: long until you're actually getting to pay the bills writing songs? Um?

352
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: So I signed a publishing deal. Um I graduated August,

353
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: so I had to do like a four and a

354
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: half semesters and I did summer to finish and so September, October, November, December, January,

355
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: favorite six months, six months after college. Um I I

356
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: signed my first polisting deal. What song or songs do

357
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: you remember sending out? Because you kind of have this

358
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: collection of material to go, hey guys, please sign me. Yeah,

359
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: do you remember did you have anything that is still

360
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: floating around or ended up getting cut in that first

361
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: batch of No. I didn't even get a cut on

362
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: my first publishing deal until I signed my second deal

363
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: and then I got one cut. They paid you for

364
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: a whole deal and made no money off of you. Yeah. Um,

365
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: I had one song about a dog that was really

366
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: good that like got pitched around and that was like

367
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: on my schedule a so it was one of the

368
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: songs that I came into my deal with that Still,

369
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: uh I will hear maybe we'll go on hold or something.

370
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: But no, nothing, nothing that I wrote before my pub

371
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 1: deal has seen the light of day for the most part.

372
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: Did you resign with your original pub company for your

373
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 1: second deal because they've just been screwed. They just spent

374
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: all this money on you didn't get anything. It's well,

375
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: it's kind of um interesting, but my publisher is a

376
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: relative of mine, no kidding. And uh so we we

377
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: kind of right at the beginning, sort of had a

378
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: dream together and and he just kept saying, dude, it's

379
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: gonna happen. It's gonna happen, and uh yeah, I went

380
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: with him again. How many years was your first deal? Three?

381
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: Are you after year two? You're going into the year three?

382
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: Are you? Like, like, I don't know if this is

383
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: gonna happen. Yeah, I was discouraged for sure. I was

384
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: why wasn't it happening? Were you not good enough yet?

385
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: I think so yeah. And it's so funny because I

386
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: was so like mad. I just I wasn't bitter and

387
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: I wasn't um what's I didn't blame the industry, and

388
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 1: I wasn't that guy, but I was very frustrated. But

389
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: I know, and and there were a few songs, but

390
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: there is proof in the pudding that I only got

391
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 1: like one cut from my first deal, And I just

392
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,880
Speaker 1: I was just I wasn't there yet. The songs weren't.

393
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 1: I would go back and listen to him all the time,

394
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: and I just kind of picked them apart, and I'm like, yeah,

395
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: I just wasn't It wasn't the radio yet. Do you

396
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: ever go back and listen to an old song and

397
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: then a bit rewrite it and make it better no

398
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: years later, like as a just like an exercise, if anything,

399
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 1: I would And I don't even think I've done this

400
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 1: on purpose, but you know, you write a thousand songs,

401
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: so you gotta write the same title eventually, even if

402
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: you forget about it. But if anything, if I had

403
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,880
Speaker 1: a great, great idea or title that maybe I didn't

404
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: know how to write, I would or I might like

405
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 1: rewrite the whole idea and if it was a co write,

406
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: just split that with the people or either we write

407
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: it with them or something like that. I'll be down

408
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: for that. Your first money making song was up Down. Yeah. Yeah, yeah,

409
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,159
Speaker 1: it was that. The first song that ever got cut. No,

410
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 1: my first cut was, but that was actually so I

411
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: sold two cuts. Updown was on my old deal. Um

412
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: I should go to Church sometime by Tyler Farr. Oh yeah,

413
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: that was my first cut and it was my first single.

414
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: I died like in the sixties, I remember it. Yeah, yeah,

415
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: but still exciting to get that first single when you

416
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: get the call and they go, hey, it's a single.

417
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: Are you pumped? Yeah, oh dude, yeah, I mean I

418
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: thought it was gonna be rich. Not that that's why

419
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 1: I do it, but um yeah I was. Yeah, I

420
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: mean that's yeah, it's a it's a huge milestone and

421
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: and and uh, you know, just a confidence booster and

422
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 1: it's like you are doing this and somebody legitimate cut

423
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: your song and yeah, it's it was. It was all

424
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 1: the wind and the sales I think that I needed.

425
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 1: And then after that everything just kind of started happening,

426
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,919
Speaker 1: which is everybody says like you get one and you

427
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: get X amount or whatever. And I've seen that happen

428
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: with a ton of my friends too. It's just funny

429
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: how that works. So as much wind gets put in

430
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: your sales when they say, hey, it's gonna be a single,

431
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: did as much get taken out when it didn't hit. Yes,

432
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: but up Down kind of cross faded with that, so

433
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: I had a little hope there. Um, But around the

434
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: time it died was when Morgen cut it, so we

435
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 1: just still didn't know, and he had only had the

436
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: way I talked, um, So it's hard to you know,

437
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: really gauge that, but um, yeah, it was a good

438
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,479
Speaker 1: It was enough cross fade for me to not like

439
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: be super down and think maybe that was my shot.

440
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,959
Speaker 1: There had to be too a bit of excitement whenever

441
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: it's not only Morrigan who who at the time was

442
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:55,719
Speaker 1: an unknown artist on a label who had no history

443
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 1: at all, not even if success or not success, but

444
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: no history. Big Loud have no history. But then when

445
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 1: FGL gets on the song, you gotta go, oh man,

446
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: I got another bullet for the gun inside of the song. Yeah,

447
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: it was a huge um booster for him, and that

448
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 1: was kind of a sigh of relief for you. I'm saying,

449
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: like to write a song, you know, I fgl Is

450
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: on the song It's not Gonna Die at sixty. Uh yeah,

451
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: and that was that was kind of the Okay, this

452
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: is gonna be a hit. There's no way it's not

453
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: gonna be a hit. And uh, that was definitely a

454
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 1: huge thing for all of that. That was all me,

455
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: Brad Clawson and c J. Soler was our first really

456
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 1: a few of our first cut or maybe mine and

457
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 1: somebody else's like first or second cut, and our first

458
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: hit together too, So it was good for all of us.

459
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 1: Let me play this here is Morgan walling up down. Damn, Dawn, damn.

460
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 1: You mentioned Brad Clawson. So when I heard about you

461
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: the songwriter about to start turning into you the artist,

462
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: it was from Nicole Galley and who's a friend, and

463
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: she was like, yeah, hard he's he's gonna try to

464
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: be an artist. And I didn't know who you were.

465
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 1: I just yeah, nobody did. If she was talking about

466
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: the songs she had written and she was like, I

467
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 1: don't know, I'd try that, you know, because a lot

468
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: of songwriters in town have either tried and it was

469
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 1: unsuccessful and not a good experience, or they just don't

470
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: want to do it. Yeah, you see all their friends

471
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,360
Speaker 1: do it, and they're like, I don't know by that.

472
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 1: You never have someone who's a songwriter who hits it

473
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:26,199
Speaker 1: big for a couple of songs, goes you know what,

474
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 1: I'm good. I don't only do it. It's never that way.

475
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 1: So you know, if you with the songwriter, mostly they're

476
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: they're like, I don't know, I want to live the

477
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,679
Speaker 1: artist lifestyle. But for you, was I always kind of

478
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: the goal on the No, it was not. When I

479
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 1: was in college, like I kind of wanted to, and

480
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 1: then I signed a pub deal and I was just like,

481
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 1: this is awesome and all I gotta do is write

482
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: a song every day, and and uh no I had.

483
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: I had. I had reached to the point where I

484
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: had zero intentions of being an artist or at least

485
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: like signing a record deal and like doing the thing.

486
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: I might have had aspirations to put music out or something,

487
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,640
Speaker 1: but no, I had no. I had no plans to

488
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: to do it. I'm gonna ask you, this is a

489
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 1: weird question to ask, and I know what the answer is,

490
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: but I wonder what your answer is when you say

491
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 1: you didn't have aspirations to be an artist? Can you sing? Yes?

492
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 1: Like like can you are you? Like, I'm a freaking

493
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 1: I've never heard you sing? Right, it hasn't been you

494
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,120
Speaker 1: haven't been on the show, the radio show to play,

495
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: and I haven't seen you live. So I just go

496
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 1: by the records. And some of my friends that are

497
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: great artists can sing pretty well, but they go, you

498
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 1: know what, I'm not the best singer a song. I

499
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: had a great performer, But can you sing? I think so? Yes?

500
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: Do you think that? Do you understand the question like

501
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: do you think that you can see compared to Nashville? Yeah?

502
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 1: I do. Um, I think it took me a while

503
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 1: to figure that out or to find my voice, but um, yes,

504
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,919
Speaker 1: I do. I consider myself a vocalist very much. So

505
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: whenever you were coming up and you were looking at artists,

506
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,400
Speaker 1: or maybe you even just listen to artists when you're

507
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: growing up in Mississippi, who was it that you were like, dang,

508
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: let's because I assume you're in your thirties. Yeah. So

509
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: I grew up with napster and and we started to

510
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 1: download and then stream, so I was able to get

511
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: music from every direction. Really, I was the first generation

512
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: to do that, where just because I grew up in

513
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 1: Mountain Pine, Arkansas, population seven hundred didn't mean I wasn't

514
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: listening to Tupac and and Limp Biscuit and Bruson Done.

515
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,120
Speaker 1: So we have all of this music coming from different angles.

516
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna ask you what came to you from

517
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,959
Speaker 1: outside of country music? First we we were like, goddamn, man,

518
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: this is what I love. Dude. Well that I mean

519
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: rock and roll in general. Um, I didn't grow up

520
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: listening to country. I know that's like against the country

521
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: music bible, but um so it was all rock and roll, old,

522
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: a lot of old just from my dad. And I

523
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: still love classic rock. But Stone Temple, Pilots, Uh, Sound Garden,

524
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: Publo Mud, Limp Biscuit. Yeah, the whole nineties vibe for

525
00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,040
Speaker 1: you sounds like it was late, kind of late, and

526
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: he's transitional to like early two thousand's. Honestly, Nickelback dude,

527
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: when they came out, when they first came out, dude,

528
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: that some of those songs there were such hits, and

529
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: I just my mom was blown so that I'm a

530
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 1: Nickelback defender to my core because the only reason people

531
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: hate Nickelback is because they got so freaking famous, and

532
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 1: when somebody is so famous, you can't help but get

533
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: people start to The cool thing to say is I

534
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: don't like them. Yeah. Sure, I just watched the Bags

535
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: documentary and I didn't get to experience the bejs. I

536
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 1: was like, that was a way too old for me.

537
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: But they got so big and there was such a

538
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: backlash that people just started hating on that. It was

539
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 1: just the cool thing to do. Yeah, because everybody loved him,

540
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna be cool and go like, you know what,

541
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: I don't love them. And then it slowly starts to

542
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: be a movement. And I've seen that and I don't

543
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: know what. And listen, I have friends up hung out

544
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: those guys and they're like, they told Duch Bags, it

545
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. Their music was great at the time.

546
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: It was, I mean it was it was just to

547
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: me it was mind blowing too, and kind of you know,

548
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: the that was like even though, like like you said,

549
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: Napster and whatever, all the lime wire or whatever, all

550
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: the illegal things, where we still kind of had that

551
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: beauty of hearing music for the first time without having

552
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: like complete access to it like we do now, and

553
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: and so when I heard stuff like nickelback Lincoln Park

554
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: is another one. Um, that stuff just it did something

555
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: to me, man like just completely inspired me. I don't

556
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: even know how to explain it. But favorite artist of

557
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: all time, um, Pink Floyd. Oh yeah, so similar. I

558
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: grew up listening to classic rock radio, and so I

559
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: was like CCR credence was is really one of the

560
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: most influential parts of music history to me. But I

561
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: would assume that had to be your dad classic rock radio.

562
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: Um yeah, I mean my first memory, like my first

563
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: few memories were, um, my dad had a chicken farm

564
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: for a long time and um uh he had like

565
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: this little s ten and we would listen to the

566
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: classic rock station out of Jackson, Mississippi, and those are

567
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: like I was probably three years old. I remember hearing

568
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: free Bird for the first time, and then like I

569
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: heard it. I don't know how I remember this, but

570
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: like later that day I heard it again on the

571
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: radio and he was singing it and I was still

572
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: kind of learning the concept of radio, and I remember

573
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 1: asking my dad how he how do you know that song?

574
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: Because the first time we heard it was earlier today

575
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: and he was like, no, son, that's like actually an

576
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: old song. But um, yeah, classic rock radio was like

577
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: very early in my my childhood, your death still alive

578
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: and what do you think about what you're doing now?

579
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: He's taking it all in stride. Both my parents are

580
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: they love it. Their mind is kind of blown a

581
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: little bit. My sister was I was very much a

582
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: black sheep, and they will even admit this that she was.

583
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: She's saying growing up and and um, I was just

584
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: a kid and play baseball and sort of she moved

585
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,479
Speaker 1: to Nashville and you know she was that was this

586
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: was kind of her thing and and so um, it's

587
00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: just still sort of people are still in shock a

588
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 1: little bit that the roles are kind of reversed. But

589
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: my parents are they love it. Have they seen you

590
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: perform to pretty crowded room? My folks, Yeah, the first

591
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: time they saw that, they trip out a little bit. Yeah.

592
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 1: The first time that they saw a good show was

593
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: in Atlanta, and it was the first time that a

594
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: crowd ever sang uh Rednecker. But it was when Rednecker

595
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 1: was like kind of peeking, and um, they were in

596
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: the crowd. And when I came back stage, like my

597
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: mom was like crying a little bit or whatever, and

598
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: they were just they I had never seen them freak

599
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: out like that. It was it was really cool. Mike

00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: he was doing comedy. So we're so we're in Austin

605
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:46,240

Speaker 1: your first time ever. Oh my god, so similar. What

607
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: did they think? They freaked out, Like they saw me

608
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 1: walk out on stage and start telling jokes and like

609
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: people laughing, and they were like, what is happening because

610
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 1: he's so quiet, he says nothing, but then he gets

611
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: up on stage and it's a pretty funny guy. And

612
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: I just kind of wonder if that was the same

613
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 1: thing with your folks a little bit. I think so, Um,

614
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: I've yes, I think so. And they hadn't really seen

615
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: that side of me, but they did. Also, like, my

616
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: first show ever was like this Halloween show I did

617
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: in Nashville and it was like packed with industry people,

618
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: so everybody was like extra hype just because it was

619
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: like my first show and everybody knew, like we knew

620
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 1: each other, but the real like to see it in

621
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 1: front of real fans, I think was a whole different

622
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: experience for them and for me. Where did Rednecker peak

623
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: twenty three? Maybe twenty four? So you were right on

624
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: the edge of really feeling it though, Huh yeah, it

625
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 1: definitely took Uh. It's interesting though because it didn't like

626
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: one Beer, the fan base was like kind of learning

627
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 1: the stuff before even one Beer kind of went top

628
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: twenty and they knew Rednecker and it's still like the biggest,

629
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: if not second biggest song of the night. But um, yeah,

630
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: I mean it was. It took a different different turn.

631
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: One Beer came out for sure, after Up Down goes

632
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: and hits what was it crossing with any other songs

633
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: at the same time? Yeah, so, um Simple came out

634
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: right after that. I think Simple came out and like

635
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: June or something, and uh, up Down went number one

636
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: in July, so that was like the first like crossover

637
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: and um I remember Simple Up Down at the number

638
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: one party. Simple was number one. It's like a crazy

639
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: cool kind of moment, you know, here is f g

640
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: L Simple whether your second song that that hits sorry

641
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: you starting to go, Hey, I think I'm really gonna

642
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: do this for a while, Like there's a pressure off

643
00:33:55,800 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: your shoulders. Yes, definitely, Um yeah, I think like up down,

644
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 1: like stood alone. And then I started really going on

645
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: the road with f GL and Morgan was out there

646
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,760
Speaker 1: and Chris Lane was they were all on tour together,

647
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 1: and the next thing I know, um, Chris uh Lane

648
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: um came up and I was like, Hey, I'm gonna

649
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:17,839
Speaker 1: cut the song you wrote. I don't know about you,

650
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: and then like um and a couple of others, and

651
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,839
Speaker 1: then Morgan was he and I started writing a lot,

652
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: and he was like I'm gonna cut this and this

653
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 1: and this and this with you, and then kind of

654
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 1: f g L sort of followed suit. And that's like

655
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 1: when I really knew, like, Okay, I think I have

656
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: a camp, and you know, because that's kind of the

657
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 1: name of the game for the most part, you know,

658
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: if you can at least find a crew and then

659
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 1: you branch out and get cut sort of here and

660
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 1: there everywhere else. But um, I I had never really

661
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: had like a solid camp of people that I could

662
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: trust in and and like felt like I was maybe

663
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: their guy or this dude's guy or whatever, and that

664
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: was the first time that I felt a lot of

665
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 1: security from that. There's Chris Lane, I don't know about

666
00:34:54,480 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 1: your bay was miss Stead battle Birds Day. Do you

667
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: want to run through some of these? Here's low Cash

668
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: One big country songs gone around here is Jamison Rogers.

669
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: Some girls get them take a trip back home and

670
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: say they got song drinking. Here's Blake Shelton, God's Country.

671
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 1: When Devin Dawson was in here, how about a week

672
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 1: or so ago, he said, you sang the demo to this, yeah,

673
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: and that when you guys finished it in his recollection

674
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: and he said, hey, you're going to writing. Everybody has

675
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: different memories of what happens when that. He felt like

676
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: that was a song for you. Yeah. I made a

677
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: joke to uh Seth and Joey Um Joey moy Um,

678
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: and I sent it to them and I said, I

679
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 1: can't remember, and I tried tried to find the text,

680
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 1: and that you know, I give gets deleted after a

681
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,760
Speaker 1: year or whatever. But I said something like, unless somebody

682
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 1: like Blake Shelton cuts this in a week, I want

683
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: this for myself and Blake cut it like basically now

684
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,919
Speaker 1: you can listen, you're pumped when he cuts it. Yeah,

685
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 1: but it was one percent of You're like, man, I

686
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: should wish I could have cut that song. I had

687
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: never dude, I had modeled my uh like there. Blake

688
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,320
Speaker 1: had had put out so many songs that I loved

689
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 1: and that I had like sort of gravitated towards that craft,

690
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 1: and a lot of that was because of Craig Wiseman

691
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 1: and like just other people that had Blake cuts. But um,

692
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 1: it was such a dream of mine, uh to have

693
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 1: a Blake cut, and especially one that he was hyped about.

694
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: So I didn't even think twice about it. And I

695
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 1: don't think that the song would have been as big

696
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: for me as it was for him. I think it

697
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 1: was so big as because it was so different. Well

698
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 1: for him, it was the biggest song of the year.

699
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: I mean that song with the song I suppose so no, no,

700
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: I suppose it one one song of like it literally

701
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 1: was the single of the year. Yeah, so there's no

702
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 1: supposing that it. I'm gonna play here's one more Morgan Wallen,

703
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 1: more than my hometown. So by doing math here let's

704
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: see one number one, two, three, four or five, six,

705
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: seven nine, number one, you're worth about ten million dollars.

706
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 1: I don't unless you're meant to be or something. I don't.

707
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: I don't know if those are much alright, Alright, So

708
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 1: your record, and again I'm gonna reference Staple too for

709
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: a second because when Staple to put out From a

710
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: Room part one and part two, the big thing was

711
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: is it from a room or from a right? And

712
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 1: it's from a room, right, because that's the room a room. Yes.

713
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: Now with your record, is it a rock or is

714
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 1: it a rock? Uh? You know what's funny is it's

715
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:54,319
Speaker 1: probably a rock because the rock sounds like Iraq. Why.

716
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 1: I've heard that joke a lot recently, Like man, I

717
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 1: didn't think about that. Why a rock though? Um, well,

718
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: it's you know, it is a song on the record.

719
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: But also uh, I think there's a little bit of

720
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: a word play there with that. The record sounds like

721
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: a rock record. Um, I never, Okay, I didn't. I

722
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: didn't cross where I decided on that. I thought about like,

723
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: I thought of a million ideas and I can't even

724
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 1: think of him now. But um, I just that's what

725
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 1: we ended up with. And I do think that, you know,

726
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: the record does definitely sound like a rock record. And

727
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 1: that was just, you know, aesthetically pleasing or whatever. Yeah,

728
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,399
Speaker 1: is the new single out if you goes? It goes

729
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 1: for ads Monday? What is it? Give Haaven some hell?

730
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: All right? Let let me play a little bit of this.

731
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: This is from when you Got Stories? Give you write

732
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 1: this one? Did you write all the songs on the record?

733
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 1: I've heard this song a few times. Where have I

734
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 1: heard this that it would play other than just me

735
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: checking out the record? Do you know? Uh? Have you

736
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,920
Speaker 1: played it anywhere? I put the only played played it

737
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: at a w W E thing. It was like the

738
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: Troops thing. It was on TV. I don't know if

739
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: you saw that. Um, I mean, I don't know. I

740
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: missed that one. Tell us so give me the you

741
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 1: know that that the thirty second version of You're in

742
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,720
Speaker 1: the room, the concept what the song means to you? Okay,

743
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,400
Speaker 1: So we were writing The first song on our record

744
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 1: is called Truck, and originally the second the last half

745
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 1: of the second verse there's a line about a guy

746
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,359
Speaker 1: that has sticker on the back that says ninety two

747
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,919
Speaker 1: to twelve and in memory of his buddy, and and

748
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 1: we were gonna we originally made the line he misses

749
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: him our uh stories he can barely tell because he's

750
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: giving heaven some hell. And me and Hunter Phelps and

751
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson we were all like, we that needs to

752
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 1: be its own idea, and so we changed the line

753
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: and we we wrote down give Heaven some hell, and

754
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: we wrote it like a week later. And to be honest, um,

755
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 1: you know, I don't I've never lost like a best friend,

756
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: thankfully or anything like that, and so, um, I wasn't

757
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: pulling from like a like a real like experience or

758
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 1: anything like that. Um, but I've definitely experienced it, uh

759
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: you know second hand or or you know, there's stuff

760
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 1: like that happened in my hometown a lot. So um,

761
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 1: there was no particular person in mind. But uh, I

762
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:26,720
Speaker 1: will say, man, it's been the most the heaviest, Um,

763
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 1: like my Instagram and Twitter and stuff, and dude, just

764
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: literally like thousands of just stories of people and I

765
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: try to respond to all of them. But I know

766
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 1: that it's reaching people and it makes That's really the

767
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: kind of the realization I've had this year's is to

768
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,400
Speaker 1: have a platform where I can help people or at

769
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:45,359
Speaker 1: least trying to make people feel something. So I'm really

770
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 1: proud of that one. I mean, you're hitting on all cylinders.

771
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: Usually it's one or the other, and sometimes they shift, sure,

772
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 1: but right now you're kind of hitting in all areas.

773
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 1: Do you have any other songs that you have written

774
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: for other folks that are out or starting to kind

775
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,520
Speaker 1: of flutter around a little bit like that? I wrote

00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: know this is true. But on Morgan's record, you're on

Speaker 1: some of those songs. You wrote some of those. Yeah,

780
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 1: I had a few Morgan's and uh, right now I

786
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 1: aside from just being you know, this songwriter, and I've

787
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 1: been lucky to be friends with Dirk's on a different

788
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,959
Speaker 1: level than Yeah, he's just the best guy, dude. He's Yes,

789
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:40,800
Speaker 1: he's as solid as you could you can get in

790
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,360
Speaker 1: town and I found. I found, I've like found that

791
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:48,799
Speaker 1: a lot of the guys that are like at the

792
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 1: top are like that. And you know that Luke Brian uh,

793
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 1: Blake Shelton and a lot of those guys like you're

794
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:57,720
Speaker 1: around him and you're like, man, y'all are just normal.

795
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 1: You're just like you are, you know, on TV and

796
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,359
Speaker 1: everything and just good dudes. And I love that. Man.

797
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: I if I ever get there, that's a testament to

798
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 1: how I want to be one day, you know. And

799
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 1: here's why. Because people at that level don't have to

800
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: prove anything to anybody. Sure you know I would. I'll say, um,

801
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 1: a two single new artist, no offense to yourself, I

802
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,240
Speaker 1: just know, or like a soap opera star or someone

803
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: that's new on a TV show, and that when you

804
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 1: get that first taste of success, you start to go,

805
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: I gotta prove that I'm worth to be here, and

806
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 1: to prove my worth, I need to be a certain way.

807
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,879
Speaker 1: And you have this and I think I went through

808
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,240
Speaker 1: it a bit too when some of my TV stuff.

809
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:38,719
Speaker 1: Not that I treat people different, but I was like,

810
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: I gotta show people that I'm actually worth what I'm

811
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 1: getting to do. And it's a weird feeling to have,

812
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 1: but then once you prove it to yourself, you're like,

813
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: you know what, I kind of have? What is sustainable?

814
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be who I am. And those guys

815
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 1: are like that Keith Urban, Yes, he's another one, dude,

816
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: the greatest dude, so nice. Man. You just would be like,

817
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,439
Speaker 1: are you a little big town? Yes? Oh dude, yes,

818
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,400
Speaker 1: You're like, are you guys real? And you hang around

819
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: them and you're like, one day I'm gonna catch you

820
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: getting out of character character. Yeah. Yeah, it's interesting too,

821
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: and like just how they handle success and and uh yeah,

822
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 1: I just I like, look at them. I mean they

823
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if they know, but all those people

824
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: that you mentioned are like role models at this point

825
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 1: because I just want to be like that as a

826
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: person if I ever get to be to that point.

827
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: You know, I think it's just an insecurity that every listen,

828
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: you can't create and be secure, Like, you can't be

829
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 1: a creator and not be insecure in some way. I agree,

830
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 1: because you're laying it out there in a vulnerable way

831
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: every single time. Yeah, totally. It doesn't matter if you're

832
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: writing songs, writing books, you gotta go, Okay, I've created this,

833
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 1: will you please like it? To do that? And you

834
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: want people's approval, you need it. That's why you what

835
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 1: you didn't do it. You know wouldn't have done it

836
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: in the first place. If you do that, you gotta

837
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,759
Speaker 1: open up your ribs a little bit. And so when

838
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: that happens, I tend I was tending to get extremely

839
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 1: insecure and just be withdrawn more than be angry. I

840
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 1: was just or mean. I'm just I was just completely withdrawn.

841
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,680
Speaker 1: Now not so much. I'm like, Okay, I think I'm

842
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: gonna be here for but I feel confident. But I

843
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: think it's the same thing you made up. I just

844
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: brought up a great point. Luke Bryant. We're together all

845
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:20,799
Speaker 1: the time shooting American Idol. People are always like Luke

846
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 1: for fifty six seventy million dollars and like the nicest,

847
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,560
Speaker 1: coolest guy in the world. You never know almost much

848
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:29,439
Speaker 1: as you with all these songs. When you tell people

849
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 1: you're from Philadelphia or do you ever say Philadelphia and

850
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 1: see if they can put it together? Dude, Every every

851
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 1: time I meet somebody new, I have to go through

852
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 1: the thing every single time. Yeah, I say it. And

853
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: when I say Philadelphia, like I see their confused face

854
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 1: for like a split second, and then I say Mississippi

855
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,360
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, make a joke about it. But

856
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 1: when you started writing, did you go buy a full

857
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,359
Speaker 1: name or you always party? You did? Yeah? I did.

858
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,879
Speaker 1: It's just that hardy, like all my friends called me hardy,

859
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: and I don't know, it's just like kind of one

860
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,279
Speaker 1: of those like I have a couple of buddies that

861
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 1: I just have always called them by their last name

862
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,000
Speaker 1: for whatever reason. And uh so when it just came

863
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 1: time to sort of do the artist thing that somebody

864
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: kind of brought it up and I was like, yeah,

865
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 1: I think that's cool, something different, and why all caps?

866
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:22,799
Speaker 1: It's just bold? Um. I think it's just kind of

867
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 1: you know, redneck or being the first song, and I

868
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 1: think the music being a little more intense than than

869
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,960
Speaker 1: maybe some of the stuff in the format. I just

870
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 1: you know, I think it just stands out are you

871
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: are you feeling? And again, I don't want you to

872
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:38,360
Speaker 1: take this the wrong way because I compared to you

873
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,719
Speaker 1: and I both to average white guys. If you just

874
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: see us, we're just normal dudes. You know. Um that

875
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 1: there's I would call it kind of a normal core

876
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 1: happening in country music. In this hardcore but like you

877
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:52,320
Speaker 1: look normal. Yeah, Uh, Luke Holmes looks normal. Colmes created

878
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 1: a normal core I think for the longest time. Uh,

879
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 1: a lot of country acts before him, and really Stapleton

880
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 1: kind of in a way, in my opinion maybe sort

881
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: of helped develop that, but I think Luke Holmes kind

882
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,839
Speaker 1: of delivered it to everybody. But uh, yeah, it's cool

883
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 1: to look normal again. I think before that it was

884
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,360
Speaker 1: like everybody was like it was or was trying to

885
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: look like a professional wrestler or something. Yeah, either an

886
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 1: extreme cowboy, a chained up wrestlings. Like you had to

887
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 1: have your esthetic niche. But you don't have to have

888
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 1: that anymore. Just show up, do what you're good at.

889
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 1: And if you're good, I mean, the more normal you look,

890
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 1: I feel like if you're you know, if you're good,

891
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 1: people are gonna go nuts. Yeah. When Jamison Rodgers was here,

892
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,800
Speaker 1: he was leaving that night after we had talked to

893
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,359
Speaker 1: go and playing the softball the league that you guys

894
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:46,840
Speaker 1: were playing in, and so I know you were on

895
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:50,080
Speaker 1: the team. How how physically are you holding up when

896
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 1: you go back and play ball? Uh, I was sore.

897
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 1: I hurt. Uh, I can't even hurt my knee or

898
00:46:56,000 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 1: something like the last game. Um, dude, that was a

899
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,720
Speaker 1: big like oh god, I'm getting old kind of thought.

900
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:07,320
Speaker 1: Uh but dude, that was fun. That was so fun,

901
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 1: And you guys didn't win the whole thing. Huh, you're

902
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: freaking stacked. Uh man, it was. I tell you why

903
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:20,279
Speaker 1: we got beat and myself included. Everybody tried to hit

904
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: a home run every single time they got up to

905
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 1: bad so we we I would bet eighty percent of

906
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: our outs were long fly balls. It just we couldn't

907
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:31,879
Speaker 1: help it. Like everybody wanted to hit a home run,

908
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: I swear because we were good in the field. We

909
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 1: had great outfielders. We had good infield. We didn't make

910
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 1: a ton of errors. Uh, we just we would have to.

911
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 1: All right, bats were tough, We we were good. We

912
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 1: want a decent bit of games. But now we didn't

913
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:46,880
Speaker 1: go all the way. Do you feel like you had

914
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:48,840
Speaker 1: a target on your back because you were all the singers?

915
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:52,359
Speaker 1: Like when you were without a doubt, dude, Oh my god,

916
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 1: you were the duke of college basketball. Like even the

917
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: bad teams are getting up because they're about to play

918
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 1: as hard as they've ever played. Absolutely. Oh man. There

919
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 1: were some teams some of these guys are really cool

920
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,360
Speaker 1: and they would like kind of yell at us and

921
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,920
Speaker 1: make like a song reference joke or you know, just

922
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,279
Speaker 1: something like that. And then there was there were a

923
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 1: couple of teams that, like you could just tell they

924
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:14,839
Speaker 1: were like these freaking country singer YadA YadA yadas and uh,

925
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 1: oh dude, we felt it every single game. It was intense.

926
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 1: Did you ever finish the game? And the other guys

927
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:20,919
Speaker 1: be like, hey, ge get a picture before we get out. Yeah.

928
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,640

Speaker 1: only at a few He had a lot going on,

930
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,359
Speaker 1: you know, but thank god he wasn't at every game,

931
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 1: or I think it might have been chaos because it

932
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,880
Speaker 1: was just sort of at his he was really starting

933
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,239

Speaker 1: just probably saw it on Jamison. Was he wearing this jersey?

948
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,240

950
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 1: hilarious because in case you don't know, are recoupable you

951
00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 1: have to pay the money back that the label pays you.

952
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,240
Speaker 1: They're like, hey, we're gonna give you a five dollars

Speaker 1: five dollars the five bucks is yeah, so yeah, that's

955
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 1: and you guess that jerseys yeah, no, I guess they

956
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:48,840
Speaker 1: were not like jersey in form or in um material.

957
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, we had uniforms. We had like, uh, just

958
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 1: very classic looking baseball shirt. Does someone buy all them

959
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 1: for you? Do you all have to go out, and

960
00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,160
Speaker 1: Jamison handled the whole thing and we just we just

961
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,360
Speaker 1: paid him. So that's like old school softball. Yeah, that

962
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:05,040
Speaker 1: doesn't give them all the money. We're gonna try to

Speaker 1: do it again in the spring if the code stuff

964
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,359
Speaker 1: kind of uh is still you know that it's not

965
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 1: looking like it's gonna be uh happening in the spring

966
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: as far as tor goes. So I think we're gonna

967
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,360
Speaker 1: try to do it again. Are you a gambler a

968
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 1: little bit? Are you gambling more now that it's legal here? Uh? No.

969
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:25,839
Speaker 1: I was doing it the same before to me though,

970
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: and I was to a bit, But I was so

971
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: tired of paying in bitcoin to an offshore site. How

00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 1: I was gonna check from like Armenia and the bank

973

Speaker 1: want cash it or like like for sure they think

974
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 1: there's some terrorist activity going on worse. Yeah, And so

975
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: I started to get tired of that. But now I'm

976
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,919
Speaker 1: on draft kings, yeah, three or four times a week.

977
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:46,399
Speaker 1: It's the greatest new part of my life. I've never

978
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 1: done DraftKings, like, because you do that kind of in

979
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 1: a fantasy format, right you can. Yes, I gamble on

980
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:56,799
Speaker 1: games just just regularly straight up. Yeah, that's what I

981
00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: do lines, you know, money line spreads just like anything else. Yeah,

982
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,040

984
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,920
Speaker 1: even go shoot TV on the weekends and whenever I'm doing.

985
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,360
Speaker 1: You can't gamble in every state, so I have to

986
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 1: get I have to give my betsand before I leave,

987
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 1: I did that before I went to Colorado with Dirks

988
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 1: and him, I had to do all of my national

989
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 1: all of the playoff and all that stuff. And I

990
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:22,800
Speaker 1: did it like in the airport because I was like,

991
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm about to screw up. But that's

992
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 1: how you know we have a problem. Well we're going, okay,

993
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 1: I'm acrossing the state line. Then yeah, it's fun. It

994
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 1: makes it, dude. It makes any game interesting. Like if

995
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:35,520
Speaker 1: there is a game on and it just started and

996
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:39,799
Speaker 1: it's the Nicks versus the Sons or whatever, and you

997
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,320
Speaker 1: don't care about it, then just put like fifty bucks

998
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,400
Speaker 1: or whatever on it, and then it's like suddenly the

999
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,760
Speaker 1: most intense thing ever. Last night, I had a seven

1000
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,360
Speaker 1: and I don't usually bet long partleys, but a seven

1001
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: game partlay, and I got to the seventh game and

1002
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: It was the Brooklyn Nets. I don't bet NBA much

1003
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,920
Speaker 1: because Brooklyn Nets Cleveland Cavaliers and Brooklyn was down by

1004
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,799
Speaker 1: about nine with three minute left. They come, they tie

1005
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: and go to overtime. This is my seventh game. Yeah,

1006
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 1: by the way, who did you have money? Brooklyn at

1007
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,759
Speaker 1: Brooklyn and and it was a money line. I wasn't

1008
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:09,799
Speaker 1: playing to spread. I needed to do was freaking win

1009
00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 1: seven games. I had put down a hundred bucks. I

1010
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 1: was gonna all they have to do is win the game.

1011
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,400
Speaker 1: They lost my seventh game. They lost in double overtime

1012
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,719
Speaker 1: and double overtime, all freaking overtime. How do you lose

1013
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:28,840
Speaker 1: with James Harden, Duran Kyrie Irving and you can you

1014
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:30,880
Speaker 1: can also go you know what, I'm gonna take the

1015
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:32,560
Speaker 1: money I've already won and check out. You can like

1016
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,160
Speaker 1: go cash in. And I felt so good about the bed.

1017
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I wanted to pull my hair out. Um dude.

1018
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,880
Speaker 1: My my favorite one this year was I put a

1019
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,280
Speaker 1: hundred bucks on l s U versus Florida money line.

1020
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 1: I had a gut feeling and football, Oh that's right,

1021
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 1: because everybody and Florida was still on the hunt to

1022
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 1: be in the National Change. You about the money line, yes,

1023
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:58,719
Speaker 1: And I was like, dude, I just have a gut

1024
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,120
Speaker 1: feeling LSU's gonna play at least a really good game

1025
00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:02,759
Speaker 1: when they beat him, And I was that was that

1026
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:06,759

1035
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,840
Speaker 1: so you've had a bit of history at it. I haven't.

1036
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 1: I mean like, I'm not like fundamentally like you know

1037
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:41,320
Speaker 1: what I mean. I don't have like the perfect swing

1038
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:43,719
Speaker 1: or anything. But I've been playing a long time. I

1039

1045
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 1: that that play. A lot of people play golf, and

1046
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people really picked it up

1047
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,800
Speaker 1: this past year. Um, but I love it. Dude. You

1048
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:15,040
Speaker 1: see my you're lefty, so am I? How are you? Yeah?

1049
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,640
Speaker 1: I can never see a lot of lefties here. Never.

1050
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 1: I can never use anybody's clubs. I can never play

1051
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 1: anybody's guitar. Yeah, you play left handed guitar. See I

1052
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 1: played right handed guitar. We is it because there were

1053
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 1: right handed guitars available? I think so, Like my first

1054
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 1: one as a gift was a right handed guitar. But um,

1055
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 1: it still feels like natural for me to play right

1056
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,680
Speaker 1: handed and not I don't feel like I could play

1057
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: left handed. So I think it is a natural thing somehow. Yeah.

1058
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,360
Speaker 1: If people are playing and they're like they do that

1059
00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:47,840
Speaker 1: funny song that you do, and I'm like, all right, well,

1060
00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:50,520
Speaker 1: there's no freaking guitar that sucks. It sucks. That is

1061
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 1: that's worse than golf clubs, because like, at least you

1062
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 1: have your own in that situation. But that's like dinning

1063
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:00,640
Speaker 1: is like that. I've played trap, says he plays left

1064
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:03,600
Speaker 1: hand guitar. He's probably good. Keith took my guitar once,

1065
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 1: who's not left handed. He goes, let me see if

1066
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 1: I can just probably this and he has a little

1067
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:10,880
Speaker 1: conversation with both of his hands and he goes, all right,

1068
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:13,239
Speaker 1: you do this, you do this, and then he starts

1069
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 1: to play. I don't know, four times better than I do.

1070
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:19,719
Speaker 1: That would make me. He's unreal, dude, Like he had

1071
00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 1: a conversation, are you gonna do what you usually do?

1072
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:24,279
Speaker 1: And you do that all right? Break and he's like,

1073
00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:29,760
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, that's insane, amazing, slash annoying. I wish

1074
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:33,720
Speaker 1: that there was more, uh more, there were more things

1075
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,600
Speaker 1: like products and stuff that appealed to left handed people.

1076
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:39,640
Speaker 1: You right, left handed, especially when we had these pencils

1077
00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:41,360
Speaker 1: at all, because you got you have, you have the

1078
00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:44,719
Speaker 1: I thought about getting a tattoo one time where like this,

1079
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:48,240
Speaker 1: like to get this whole thing shaded, like to represent

1080
00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:50,919
Speaker 1: like the yeah, because if you're left handed, for those

1081
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:52,719
Speaker 1: that don't know, and most of you don't, you have

1082
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,839
Speaker 1: to drag your hand across the paper like you right,

1083
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: you're right, and then you go across what you just wrote.

1084
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 1: So you always so it's always all over your life

1085
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:03,759
Speaker 1: stucks me. Even you guys don't even know Mike, you

1086
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 1: have no idea how stuff it is. Um in the winter,

1087
00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 1: it's been because I have the gold I have the simulator,

1088
00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:10,680
Speaker 1: and I saw it. Yeah, that's been where it's that

1089
00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: I want one. I've had more friends in the winter

1090
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:16,279
Speaker 1: than i've had all. That's funny. They're like, hey, man,

00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 1: the winter project. Is is it pretty? I mean, of

1094
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:27,120

1095
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 1: it's it's it's yeah, it's accurate. I say that, and

1096
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, real life, I wouldn't hear the shot

1162
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:41,360

1167
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 1: it back? No, I worked. I watched the first cut

1168
00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:01,959
Speaker 1: and made a couple of comments, and you know, deep

1169
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:05,120
Speaker 1: and deep inside, I knew that there's certain things were

1170
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:08,920
Speaker 1: sort of different people's truths and that you just have

1171
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 1: to go with that. And thank Marshall did an amazing job,

1172
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,240
Speaker 1: and Nigel think Claire and I let go of it.

1173
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 1: I just can't watch my family disappear one by one,

1174
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,959
Speaker 1: you know, and that's just too much. And you don't

1175
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,720
Speaker 1: plan to go back and watch it. No, wow, Well,

1176
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: let me say they did a fantastic job at taking me,

1177
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 1: who is a music fan, I mean, I do music

1178
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: for a living, taking me on an emotional roller coaster.

1179
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: Because and again, since you haven't seen it, I'm sure

1180
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna know all that I'm talking about. I know

1181
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 1: what it is. I know what it is. I don't

1182
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:45,720
Speaker 1: need to see it. You know. It was the many times,

1183
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 1: like the Rise and Fall or the rise in slow

1184
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:53,200
Speaker 1: Stop for the Bags, for example, you get a little

1185
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,720
Speaker 1: famous and then it kind of shuts down, you go

1186
01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 1: back to playing like the club, you know, back at

1187
01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:59,400
Speaker 1: home a little bit. Did you think then on the

1188
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 1: first kind of hiccup with the basis that it was

1189
01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 1: over or you guys could climb back. That was a

1190
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,439
Speaker 1: one time only thing. And we were working and put

1191
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 1: in in about nineties seven, beginning of the seventies. We

1192
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:15,280
Speaker 1: were working in a couple of clubs in in the

1193
01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:17,720
Speaker 1: north of England, in the same places that Chuck Berry

1194
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:21,160
Speaker 1: and Roy Orbison were playing. So you know, there's nothing

1195
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 1: to be ashamed of there. So while we were doing that, yeah,

1196
01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:26,960
Speaker 1: it was a quiet period before that, but while we

1197
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:29,320
Speaker 1: were doing that, we had two number one records in America,

1198
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 1: so it was a little bit of a two edged sword.

1199
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:35,200
Speaker 1: You know, you're doing great over there and you're not

1200
01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:38,320
Speaker 1: doing so well here. And you know, we never did

1201
01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 1: We never were able to be um constant. We just

1202
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,680
Speaker 1: never were. It was never that. It was always it

1203
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:49,840
Speaker 1: was always what's next and take another shot, you know,

1204
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,360
Speaker 1: dushed yourself off, get back in the studio. We never

1205
01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:55,200
Speaker 1: we just sort of never start. We never gave up.

1206
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:59,080
Speaker 1: You know. You go and you're in this French chateau

1207
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 1: or yah, you know, and it's Elton John had done

1208
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:03,880
Speaker 1: a record and it was all fancy, and you guys

1209
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:05,919
Speaker 1: go and it wasn't quite as fancy as you thought,

1210
01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:09,000
Speaker 1: but you you pushed on. But as you're there working

1211
01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:11,280
Speaker 1: on the next album, you get the script for what

1212
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:14,880
Speaker 1: was going to be Saturday Night Fever. Yeah, that that's true.

1213
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:17,200
Speaker 1: And we didn't we didn't read the script. We listened

1214
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:20,400
Speaker 1: to Robert Stig would describe what he wanted to do

1215
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:24,200
Speaker 1: with the film, and we started writing from there. We

1216
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,480
Speaker 1: didn't want to be we didn't want to be affected

1217
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:29,360
Speaker 1: by the script. We just sort of wrote. So that

1218
01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 1: was gonna be my question, like, did you read part

1219
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:33,520
Speaker 1: of the script? You read none of the script? No,

1220
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:38,160
Speaker 1: what we knew what it was. And we already knew

1221
01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:42,040
Speaker 1: about John Travolter and Robert was often running and he

1222
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:45,240
Speaker 1: wanted to do this and and you know, we wrote

1223
01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:47,920
Speaker 1: for him. We always wrote for Robert, you know, to

1224
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,720
Speaker 1: please him. It's great to write for other people, you know,

1225
01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:53,640
Speaker 1: to have someone in mind that you want to please.

1226
01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 1: And that's that's how we did it. When when when

1227
01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:59,000
Speaker 1: that record is out and you guys are now turned

1228
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:02,080
Speaker 1: into not just superstar of the mega stars, unlike anything,

1229
01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 1: really you know seen in twenty years since the Beatles

1230
01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 1: are Elvis. Was there ever a point where you felt

1231
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:12,000
Speaker 1: like you can't even go outside? Well, yeah, of course, Um,

1232
01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:14,200
Speaker 1: you know there are people climbing over our walls and

1233
01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:18,440
Speaker 1: the kind of thing that you might expect, um that

1234
01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:21,040
Speaker 1: comes from that kind of thing. It was. We had

1235
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:23,280
Speaker 1: a time of our lives, you know, we had a bath.

1236
01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people don't see the seventies

1237
01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:29,920
Speaker 1: the way we do if you live through it. It was.

1238
01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:32,520
Speaker 1: It was quite an amazing period. There was no war,

1239
01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,000
Speaker 1: there was everybody wanted to go out, you know, there

1240
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 1: was a lot of fun being had. And and our

1241
01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:41,560
Speaker 1: record label, Armattica in fact that you know, you guys

1242
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:45,560
Speaker 1: are got to kick it up. And that's where that

1243
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 1: that's where they knew where we reinvented ourselves. And the

1244
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 1: songs like Jive Talking and Fanny We Tender and songs

1245
01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 1: like that main course album Children of the World they

1246
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:02,440
Speaker 1: came about because of that, and yeah, and and and

1247
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:06,960
Speaker 1: then Fever so and and Fever's a compilation so it

1248
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 1: wasn't actually our albums, but boy, we had the time

1249
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:15,640
Speaker 1: of our lives, you guys. And again, I know, Dolly,

1250
01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:18,320
Speaker 1: um pretty well, and I knew Kenny a little bit

1251
01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:20,600
Speaker 1: before he passed away. And you know, Islands in the

1252
01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:23,120
Speaker 1: Stream is such a mega hit for both of their

1253
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,760
Speaker 1: careers and brands, and for for for you guys, for

1254
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:29,080
Speaker 1: you to have written that. Now. Is it true that

1255
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:31,520
Speaker 1: you were thinking about Marvin Gay when you first did

1256
01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:34,360
Speaker 1: Islands in the Stream? No, we were thinking of Diana Row,

1257
01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 1: you know, because because Diana had asked us to write

1258
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:41,040
Speaker 1: it as a song for her. So I was in

1259
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:43,800
Speaker 1: the stream was probably going to be sent to Diana

1260
01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:47,880
Speaker 1: when I got the call from Kenny, and and shows

1261
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:50,840
Speaker 1: you how are I beacon somehow coincide with country music.

1262
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:54,520
Speaker 1: I'll never understand that, But say he said, I want

1263
01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:56,080
Speaker 1: to do a duet and I'd like to do it

1264
01:04:56,120 --> 01:05:00,520
Speaker 1: with Dolly, So that that that song did it. He

1265
01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:05,080
Speaker 1: loved it, and so did Dolly. And she she just

1266
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 1: set it on fire, you know. And and and she's

1267
01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:12,400
Speaker 1: it's her birthday today, and I wanted to have a happy,

1268
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:16,640
Speaker 1: happy birthday. And she's become one of my dearest friends.

1269
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:20,520
Speaker 1: And I could not wish more happiness on her than

1270
01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 1: I am doing. You know, she's on track six words.

1271
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:26,480
Speaker 1: It's you know you and Dolly and so when you

1272
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:28,360
Speaker 1: called Dolly, do you send her a text? Do you

1273
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:29,760
Speaker 1: have a friend reach out to her? How does that

1274
01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:33,360
Speaker 1: work to get Dolly on a song? Oh, Danny, Danny

1275
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 1: nozell Um. We've become good friend and he represents Dolly.

1276
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:45,600
Speaker 1: And I think that it was probably between Dave Carl

1277
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:51,360
Speaker 1: and and other I don't I didn't contact her directly,

1278
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,400
Speaker 1: and it was it was I just got the message

1279
01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:56,680
Speaker 1: Dolly wanted to do worth. I didn't. I didn't tell

1280
01:05:56,720 --> 01:06:00,240
Speaker 1: anyone what to sing. I didn't make the choices. Also

1281
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,400
Speaker 1: wanted to do too much heaven and the greatest thing

1282

1301
01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:16,600
Speaker 1: just loaded with talent. But I wonder, when you were

1302
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,880
Speaker 1: twelve years old, who did you whose record did you

1303
01:07:18,920 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 1: want to hear? Royal pison, royal person without a hobby,

1304
01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:27,320
Speaker 1: without without a second thing to think about it. And

1305
01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:31,200
Speaker 1: my song whatever I do songwriting is inspired by royal person.

1306
01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:35,400
Speaker 1: And I loved how his songs grew and and and

1307
01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:38,520
Speaker 1: took shape as they went along and got bigger and

1308
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:42,120
Speaker 1: bigger and bigger. And I think running scared and blew

1309
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:45,640
Speaker 1: by you and crying and in dreams and it's over.

1310
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:49,080
Speaker 1: And I was just I was just in love with

1311
01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:52,200
Speaker 1: the guy, in love with the music. And Johnny Cash,

1312
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,520
Speaker 1: I think was right there too. And I wanted to

1313
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:58,560
Speaker 1: I wanted to sing light Royals and I wanted to

1314
01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:01,760
Speaker 1: write like Royal version. He would have been the single

1315
01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:04,400
Speaker 1: inspiration for me. Was there ever a show where when

1316
01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:07,000

Speaker 1: strides and shows up in the documentary coming to your show.

1319
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:13,640

1322
01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: couldn't believe that. I mean, I couldn't believe that Barber

1323
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:25,760
Speaker 1: was there and Olivia was there, and Olivia was one

1324
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 1: of the main peaks at that point, and you know,

1325
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,759
Speaker 1: I could never believe. You know, I believe carry Grantfre's

1326
01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:36,920
Speaker 1: in the audience at the front, and I would if

1327
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:38,960
Speaker 1: anyone had told me, I wouldn't have believed that either.

1328
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:43,479
Speaker 1: So well, yeah, life is just full of surprises if
