But then his lawyer 38 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 3: points out that that decision in seventeen forty six declaring it, 39 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 3: you know, a weapon of war was never overturned, so 40 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 3: he couldn't be charged with an eighteen nineties by law 41 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 3: of disturbing the piece with a musical instrument because it 42 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 3: was actually a weapon of war.

That marked 125 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 2: the beginning of them playing like state and county fairs. 126 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: Later on they would be doing reunion tours, but it 127 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 2: was all like that was their future, right, Let's don't 128 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 2: talk about the rough years, at least not yet let's 129 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 2: talk about the fun beginning the early years. From what 130 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: I understand, John bon Jovi is to blame for skid row. 131 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: I mean I did, I can't, but like it is 132 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: his fault. Yeah, I think, aren't the rest of them 133 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 2: from New Jersey? Yes, I didn't know this. So the 134 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 2: band was coming up, everyone knew it, who knew them, 135 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 2: and everyone in the music industry on the East Coast, 136 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: specifically in the New York, New Jersey area and include Philly. 137 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: I guess they could see that they were on the 138 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: cusp of breaking right. Everyone's like, oh my god, they're 139 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 2: so close to success. And then that's when their boat 140 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 2: begins to sink. Right when they're just you know, within 141 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: view of the coast, the boat begins to sink. And 142 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 2: then at this point steps in bad Boy of New Jersey, 143 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 2: John bon Jovi, John bon Giovy. Yes. Well, first it 144 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 2: was his parents, John bon Jovi's dad, John Bonjovy, a senior, 145 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: a barber, and former marine, and his lovely wife Carol 146 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: bon Govy, who was coincidentally also a former marine, but 147 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: also a former playboy Bunny Wait.

In fact, you 156 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 2: should call his friend Dave Sabo. He needs a singer 157 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 2: for his band. Have you ever been to New Jersey? So, Elizabeth, 158 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 2: you don't know this. Dave Sabo was the original guitarist 159 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,719 Speaker 2: for the band of a little band called bon Jovi. Okay. 160 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 2: He was later replaced by Richie Sambora, who everybody knows. Yeah, 161 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 2: he's a cowboy on a steel horse. He right, exactly. 162 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 2: So Dave Sabo was John bon Jovi's childhood friend. They 163 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 2: grew up in the same hood in New Jersey. They 164 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 2: went way back, right, So anyway, young Sebastian Bach he 165 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 2: does as John bon Jovi's parents tell him to do. 166 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: He rings Dave Sabo and the band is like, yeah, man, 167 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: you should come out to New Jersey. We're having tryouts. 168 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 2: And Sebastian Bok's like, okay, I'll be there amen. So 169 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: he flies out to New Jersey from Canada. He does 170 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 2: his killer audition, apparently because skid Row offers him the job. 171 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 2: So they're like, you nailed it, kid. Nineteen eighty seven, 172 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: Sebastian Bach joins the band. He's the new lead singer. 173 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 2: Now they're breack headed for success. Yeah right, soon enough, 174 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 2: he's now the face of the band because the lead 175 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: singer is gonna be the face of the band. So 176 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: it's their band and they hire this kid and he 177 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 2: becomes the face of the band, and the band it 178 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 2: does indeed blow up. In nineteen eighty nine, band drops 179 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,959 Speaker 2: their debut album, The skid Row Huge Hit, YadA, YadA, YadA. 180 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: A little while back, Sebastian Bach he had dropped a memoir. 181 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 2: He looked back at those heady days of the rock 182 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 2: stardom in the late eighties and early nineties. Yeah, yeah, 183 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 2: wistfully remembering like, oh, it's so great you could get 184 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 2: drugs anywhere time. Yeah, exactly. I had all these teams 185 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: of lawyers. So he also brought up his feud with 186 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 2: John bon Jovi, the man whose parents started his career 187 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 2: because they got into a feud once he was a star. 188 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 2: So Jo not know that. I didn't either. John bon 189 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 2: Jovi was critical to skid row success everything, and I 190 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 2: also remember the band his childhood frame band. So he's 191 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 2: gonna be a protective of the band. And now they've 192 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: got this like full of themselves Canadian hair metal kid 193 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 2: like I'm the band. So the band's about to drop 194 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 2: their debut album. John bon Jovi goes, I'm gonna help 195 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: them out, so let's take them out on the road. 196 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 2: They can open for bon Jovi. That'll be a huge boost. Yeah, 197 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: So they're doing their nineteen eighty eight, nineteen eighty nine 198 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: and New Jersey Syndicate tour. I'm not sure if you 199 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 2: remember this. No I don't. I didn't know. The story 200 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 2: goes skid Row's opening for John bon Jovi and it's 201 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: going well, perhaps too well. The band's album comes out, 202 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: fans coming out to see John bon jovire and suddenly 203 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 2: folks coming out to see skid Row the opener. Yeah, 204 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: so that because a little tension between the bands, you know, 205 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 2: and then also apparently the merch numbers shift and John 206 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 2: bon Jovi's band, it's as much Merchant skid Row. I 207 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 2: don't know, but I find it all kind of hard 208 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 2: to believe in that part of the telling. What I 209 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 2: do believe is it in nineteen eighty nine, while they're 210 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 2: watching the stratospheric rise of skid Row, it goes to 211 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 2: Sebastian box Head. That's why I hear what happened? Well, 212 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I think too, what is it eight? 213 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 3: I don't know what album on Jovi was supporting with 214 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 3: the tour, but I feel like at this point like 215 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 3: they had peaked. 216 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 2: Yes they were, They were definitely crush. 217 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 3: And he's like just about to go into a solo career, right, 218 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 3: like I think pretty much, yeah, and so yeah, it's 219 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 3: just then you get like and and skid Row. We're 220 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 3: super MTV ready, Yes, you know, like it was. 221 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 2: And there they don't know it, but the whole window 222 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: on this rock music is very quickly closed. They got 223 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 2: two years essentially. Yeah, that's it, and then it'll be 224 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 2: nobody wants you what you're doing anymore? 225 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 4: Exactly you and rat you know, so one night, sure 226 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 4: warrant and get in. 227 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: At this point, Sebastian Bach though doesn't know this, so 228 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 2: success has gone to his head. An old sea bass 229 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 2: starts to piss off his fellow front man John bon Jovi. 230 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: One night after their set, John bon Jovi comes over 231 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 2: to the skid Row dressing room and, as Sebastian Bach 232 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 2: tells it, he stared me down and said the words 233 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 2: I'll own you. So another big you know potty. 234 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 6: Yeah. 235 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: After that, bon jovin skid Row had beef right. So 236 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: later on in the tour, the stage crew for bon 237 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 2: Jovi starts allegedly throwing milk all over Sebastian Bak just 238 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 2: before he's supposed to go out on stage, right, so 239 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 2: he's covered in melt. I don't know. Yeah, So he 240 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 2: goes out on stage anyway because he's like, I'll show 241 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: you guys, and then he launches into this rant about 242 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 2: what a bunch of posers bon Jovi are and the headliners, 243 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 2: and he calls the lead singer, John Bond blow me 244 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 2: to all the fames in front of a fans who 245 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: came to see bon Jovi well drenched and trenched him out. 246 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 2: As Newton would tell you, Isaac Newton, every action has 247 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: a reaction. Is on stage rant against bon Jovi at 248 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 2: their show led to a New Jersey sized reaction, not 249 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 2: the state, like I'm from New Jersey and this is 250 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: what's gonna be the reaction. So back to Sebastian Bach. 251 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 2: We saw about sixty people coming towards us. They're backstage, 252 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 2: crowd of sixty people in the back just coming at them. 253 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 2: Leading the charge of this road crew and pissed off 254 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: like people is former marine John bon Jovic, followed closely 255 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 2: by his son, John bon Jovi Junior. John bon Jovi 256 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 2: Junior marches right up to Sebastian Bak and he gets 257 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: in his face and he shouts, I heard what you 258 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: said on my stage, and then he threw a punch, 259 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: but his punch was poorly aimed and it missed wide 260 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 2: of his target apparently. And now before frontman on frontman 261 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 2: violence can go any and get get any bigger and 262 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 2: get any uglier, the road crew grabs Sebastian Bach and 263 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 2: slams them up against the wall. There's between these Oh yeah, definitely, 264 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 2: he's much taller than John bon Jovi. I don't know 265 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 2: how he could get in his face, you know, he 266 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 2: got in his chest. So anyway, the road crew now 267 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 2: was like holding him up against the wall and maybe 268 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 2: getting like something for John bon Jovi to stand on 269 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:43,719 Speaker 2: and get in his face again. Yeah so, but the 270 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 2: at this point, you know, they're also just mad. He 271 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 2: like dared not to get hit by an initial pro right. 272 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 2: So meanwhile, the former marine daddy bon John Job, he 273 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 2: shoves an angry figure in Sebastian Bok's face and he 274 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 2: starts shouting at him. Right, according to Sebastian Bar, there's 275 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: Carolyn All, she's being reasonable, she's just working on a caress. 276 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: She's calling in the big guns. She's pulling a carmelo. 277 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 2: The phone rings at the bottom bank. Yeah. So Sebastian Bach, 278 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 2: who was there, tells us bon Jovi Senior pointed in 279 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 2: my face as I was held against the wall, and 280 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: he said I'll kill you or something like that. So 281 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 2: after everybody's getting all their potty mouth anger out after 282 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: that encounter Sebastian Bach versus John bon Jovi, the feud 283 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 2: simmers for another decade, right until two thousand and six. 284 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: They meet in a London bar. They hug it out 285 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 2: like bros. They say, man, let's put the pass behind it. 286 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 2: How could you bite the hand that feeds you? Like 287 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 2: that where you like, do not know dad hooks? 288 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 3: She was yes, and then like how uncomfortable it makes 289 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 3: it in the band because like his band made. 290 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 2: Yeah your friend exactly. Yeah, I didn't know any of 291 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 2: that dynamic about the band. Fun fact that I did 292 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: learn while researching this one. In nineteen eighty a young 293 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: bon Jovi, that's John bon Jovi, just him, not the 294 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: whole band, had no professional credits to his name, right, 295 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 2: but he we'd have a little band called the Rest 296 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 2: that's it, right, not the best name, but whatever. Anyway, 297 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: he's working at a recording studio pushing a broom, just 298 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 2: like Chris Christofferson did. And again, this is nineteen eighty, right, 299 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 2: So there's this massive hit out there still shaping pop culture. 300 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 2: And this massive hit was called Star Wars, came out 301 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 2: years prior, but still an Empire is going to come 302 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 2: out that year, but it's still shaping the culture so 303 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 2: much that there was a disco DJ in New Jersey 304 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 2: who was looking for a way to cash in on 305 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 2: all that Star Wars loose money around in the culture. 306 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 2: This disco producer was named Miko, and he was working 307 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 2: on a little project called Christmas in the Stars. The 308 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 2: Star Wars Christmas album, because the thinking was kids would 309 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: ask their parents to buy anything with the words Star 310 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 2: Wars on it, right, true. So remember, yeah, as I 311 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 2: said John bon Jovi June. 312 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 3: You owned the like for years, late seventies, eighties, mid eighties. 313 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 2: If you put Star Wars on something or picture of 314 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 2: an e wall, it works like that today it still does. Yeah, 315 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 2: it's exactly. It's just like a money printing machine. It's 316 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: why Disney bought it, that's right. So John bon Joe 317 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 2: he's pushing his room at this recording studio and now 318 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 2: he's there the day they're recording Christmas in the Stars, 319 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 2: the Star Wars Christmas album, and for one track, they 320 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 2: don't have the voice they need. So Johnny bon Jovi 321 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: is like, hey, I can sing, and so the disco 322 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 2: producers like, okay, baby, let's tell you pipes right, And 323 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 2: Johnny bon Jovi takes his place at the mic, and 324 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 2: when the track comes up, he starts singing the lyrics 325 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 2: to R two D two's version of we Wish You 326 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 2: a Merry Christmas. Wait, and that's how John bon Jovi 327 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 2: got his first professional music crack. He just started with 328 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: an R two D two. He just did like, no, 329 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 2: he sings, I don't know he sings the lyrics. R 330 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 2: two two can't sing here, he can't be boobop his 331 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 2: way through. He's like accent, he's like scatting. I guess 332 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: what is an R two D two accent? 333 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 3: I know in your deep bag of accents, you've got 334 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 3: an R two D two accents. 335 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 2: The whistles, though, are so hard to it's like and 336 00:16:54,000 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 2: then he's like, just like that, just like that. But 337 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 2: I'm sure you all have heard that the main Star 338 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 2: Wars theme by Miko, like the disco version, right, yes, 339 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 2: oh yeah, no, definitely it's so good. Yeah, I want 340 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: the album now. It's a banger. No, it definitely is. Yeah. 341 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 2: It's the reason why he's like, let's do a Christmas 342 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,479 Speaker 2: album because people are like, this is dope. I got 343 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 2: more dope. Yeah, So there you go. From a flagrant 344 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,719 Speaker 2: cash grab, John bon Jovi gets his first one. Anyway, 345 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 2: this sounds like many of my my bad weekends. So 346 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 2: let's take a little break, slip into something comfortable, listen 347 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 2: to some ads, and after these messages we'll get into 348 00:17:37,680 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 2: the battle and box. Yes, okay, Elizabeth Jaren. At this point, 349 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 2: I've pulled this bowstring back far enough to make it 350 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 2: nice and tough. You ready to see this arrowfly? Yes? 351 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: So in nineteen ninety six, Sebastian Bach was fired from 352 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 2: his band skid Row. He had a good run, you know, 353 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 2: last year, from nineteen eighty seven to nineteen ninety six, 354 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 2: at least three good years. Yeah, and then just a 355 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 2: full nine year run, you know. So anyway, that's one 356 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 2: year longer than the American Revolution. The reason why Sebastian 357 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 2: Bach was fired from skid Row remains the matter of 358 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 2: myth and speculation, oh the gossip of heavy metal roadies 359 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 2: and groupies. But there are certain rumors, like there's one 360 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 2: rumor that Sebastian Bach was fired from skid Row because 361 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 2: he wanted the band to play as an opener for 362 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 2: one of his favorite childhood bands. Want I guess what 363 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 2: band Sebastian Bach idolized as a kid and was willing 364 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 2: to risk it all to tour with. 365 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 4: Yes, do you know the storys Oh, my god, you're good. 366 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 3: I'm trying to think of like what you know, I'm 367 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 3: just not a big fan of j at his agent? 368 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 2: What's theme for his age? And like a megaband that 369 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 2: went still being around but like lame. Yeah exactly. The 370 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 2: people be like what just going. 371 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 3: Like super hard or like really, oh my god, they're 372 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 3: amazing musicians, and it's like this, you know. 373 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's not risking for the MC five, he's exactly, 374 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 2: it's just tracks. So Sebastian Bach was he wanted to 375 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 2: open for Kiss, and the rest of skid Row was like, 376 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: will they be wearing the makeup and they're lays up 377 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 2: boots and capes. Yeah, that's not really what they said. 378 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 2: But what did happen is Elizabeth, let me take you back. 379 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 2: It was nineteen ninety six. Grunge was big hair metals 380 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 2: out at this point. Oh yeah, has cut their hair right? 381 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:34,479 Speaker 3: Oh my god. 382 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, So at this point in the culture therapy exactly, 383 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 2: they're doing anger management. So neither skid Row nor Kiss 384 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 2: is at the top of the charts anymore, but they 385 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 2: both still have armies of loyal fans and they're not 386 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 2: too old to rock and roll. 387 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 3: Ninety six too, we're getting through grunge into new metal. 388 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 2: Yes, exactly, we're making that shift. So when Kiss announces 389 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 2: like what silver Chair happens, Everyone's like, Okay, grunge is 390 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 2: not Let's move on. So when Kiss announces a reunion tour, 391 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 2: they reach out to Sebastia Bach, who is a Kiss 392 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 2: superstan as I said, and they asked if skid Row 393 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 2: wants to go on tour with Kiss and open for 394 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 2: the glam demons of rock and roll, and Sebastian Bach 395 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 2: is like, yes, absolutely yes, oh my god, jumping up 396 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 2: and down. And then he goes to tell his bandmates 397 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 2: and they're like, no, absolutely not. And so I guess 398 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 2: they had different opinions about what cool was. And uh. 399 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 2: Sebastian Bach was on Steve O's podcast Wild Ride, and 400 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: he recounted the events as best as he could remember 401 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: them again rockstar so Memory, but Accordian Sebastian Bak's jin 402 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 2: Soak Memory. The bass player Rachel Bolin had a tour 403 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 2: planned with their side project, a punk band he'd started 404 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: with skid Row's Roadies, So that was why Sebastian Bach 405 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,640 Speaker 2: didn't get to play with his childhood heroes. 406 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 6: Ok. 407 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: So he reached out to John bon Jovi's childhood friend, 408 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 2: Old Dave Sabo, guitarist for the band, and Sebastian Bach 409 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 2: had some thoughts about this, like, oh, he's playing with 410 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 2: a punk band, I don't get to play with Kiss, 411 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 2: and he wanted the skid Row guitarist Sabo to hear 412 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 2: his thoughts, and so as Sebastian Bach told Steve Oh 413 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 2: the story, and I quote, I called the guitar player 414 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 2: Dave Sable and then let him know what I thought. 415 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 2: He didn't pick up, so I just went you and 416 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 2: I just let him know what I thought of him 417 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 2: not letting me play with Kiss at the reunion tour 418 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 2: of Kiss in New Jersey at the Meadowlands Arena. So 419 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 2: Elizabeth again, this is nineteen ninety six. It's ninety six, 420 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 2: which is key to the story because in nineteen ninety 421 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 2: six people had answering machines for their house phone. Yeah 422 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 2: you remember those, right. I for some answering machines, while 423 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 2: the person is leaving a message, it plays on his speakerphone. 424 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 2: So anyone standing there in the room with that phone 425 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 2: can hear the message as it's being left and recorded. 426 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 2: This is it used to be great for scenes in 427 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 2: dumb comedies. Well keep that energy in mind, dumb comedy, 428 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 2: because turns out Dave Sabo saw who was calling. He's like, 429 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 2: I'm not answering that, but he did, so he didn't 430 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 2: pick up the call, but he did stand there and 431 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 2: listen to the message on speakerphone. So as Sebastian Bach 432 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 2: is leaving it and Dave Sabo though wasn't alone because 433 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: the way Sebastian Bach tells the story to Tears Steve 434 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 2: oh And quote, he goes, my whole family heard that 435 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 2: message that came out of the speaker and my whole 436 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 2: family was there. So that was it. That was what 437 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 2: was the old cliche. Back to Sebastian Bach, that was 438 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 2: the last straw. If you asked the bass player in them, 439 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 2: they will say that there was a lot of leading 440 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 2: up to that, but that was the very last straw. 441 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 2: So I guess, yeah, why he got fired from the 442 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 2: band because he left a message and irritated his bandmate, 443 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 2: John bon Jovi's best friend, screaming at him and being 444 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 2: way too family for a family from New Jersey. But 445 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 2: you know how hard it is to see their standards, 446 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: like they've heard some stuff. 447 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 3: It's I've known bands that have broken up and they're 448 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 3: looking for an excuse if one person is the catalyst 449 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 3: and they're like, oh, oh it was that. 450 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 2: There was like wait, what a lot more? But I 451 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 2: think you're on. But if we dig his word for it, 452 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 2: he wasn't fired from Sandro because he said yes to kiss, 453 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 2: but he was booted for the band because he was 454 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,360 Speaker 2: a pompous, spoiled rock star essentially right, no one wanted 455 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 2: to be around him because they're sick of having to 456 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 2: hold the bag of his bad behavior. So any that 457 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: brings us to the story I wanted to tell you today. Yes, 458 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 2: what was the name of that Canadian town I told 459 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 2: you remember up top? Peter something real close? It is Peterborough. Peterborough, 460 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 2: all right, it's easy to remember. Just think spider Man, right, 461 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 2: is Peter Parker. Peter Parker is from the Borough of Queens. 462 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 2: Peter Peterborough. Boom spider Man equals Peterborough has memory trick, Elizabeth. 463 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 2: You'd keep that one for free. It's on the house. Seriously, 464 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 2: come to my seminar this weekend. I'm at the Ramata 465 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: n out by the airport. Anyway, the scene of this 466 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 2: crime was Riley's Old Town Pub in Sebastian Box, hometown 467 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 2: of where Peter Peterborough. That's old by the way with 468 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 2: no e at the end. But the town has an 469 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 2: athi end like they couldn't make up their mind which 470 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 2: way they wanted to go the old Towny's Old Town Pub, 471 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 2: old Town Pub on the end of old but at 472 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 2: the end of town. So what about at the end 473 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 2: of pub. No, so they decided they split the difference 474 00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 2: on their old time events, like we can only afford 475 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: one e. Yeah, so it's November IDEs of November, in fact, 476 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 2: November fifteenth. Yeah. So one thing I thought was funny. 477 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 2: Every single news story that covered this incident made sure 478 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 2: to include the phrase Sebastian Buck whose real name is 479 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 2: Sebastian Berk to bust him out or maybe there's a 480 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 2: lot of people to know. I read the arrest report. 481 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: I don't know what. 482 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 3: It's just like, if you're not familiar with him, they're like, wait, 483 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: this man's name is They're. 484 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 2: Like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it's not it's 485 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 2: not that cool. Don't put on airs. It's beer. It's 486 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 2: actually really lame. So what's the stories? Eric, great question, Elizabeth, 487 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 2: Oh my god, thank you. At the time, Sebastian back, 488 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 2: forty two year old former rock star turned Broadway actor 489 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 2: and part time reality TV person acting with a side 490 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 2: of reunion tour hopeful now reality TV h one, I'm 491 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 2: not going to yeah, exactly.

There you go. 493 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 2: That's right, spider Man Canada. In an exclusive interview the 494 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 2: music and culture outlet Blabbermouth, Sebastian Bach recalled that and 495 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: I quote, I went to Peterborough to deal with my 496 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 2: dad's estate and pack up his art and put it 497 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 2: in the truck and drive it in New Jersey. It 498 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 2: was pure misery. So that was a rough day. One 499 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 2: of my friends wanted to sing a song to me, 500 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 2: a song at the microphone, and the owner wouldn't letter. 501 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 2: So right off, we've got an emotionally stressed rockstea with 502 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: aging family care issues. Right, that's always difficult, be super stressful. Yeah, 503 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 2: he said, rough day, we've all. 504 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 3: You know, when a friend says I want to sing 505 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 3: a song to you in. 506 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 2: A bar to make you feel better, that's rough. That 507 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 2: puts me through the ringer. So he and his friends, 508 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 2: that is traumatic. 509 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 3: You friend is like, I want to sing a song 510 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 3: to you. 511 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 2: In public, probably a bar in your hometown. You tell 512 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 2: me all about it later. So they decided that, you know, 513 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 2: maybe some impromptu karaoke will cheer up Sea Bass, right, 514 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: but the man won't let them sing. So what's a 515 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 2: rock and roll rebel like Sea Bass supposed to do well? 516 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,679 Speaker 2: From some media reports, I read Sebastian Bach had a 517 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 2: essentially going up to the stage where there was a 518 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 2: house musician playing. I imagine a guy with a guitar. Yeah, 519 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 2: he asked, yeah, maybe, But he asked if his friend 520 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: Ken Sagan for the bar patrons, do you know what 521 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 2: song it was? No, I don't know what song they 522 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 2: want to I know I didn't. I looked up as 523 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 2: much as I could for this one. So the house 524 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 2: musician was like, yeah, cool, cool, Yeah, man, sure, you 525 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 2: just need to ask the owner if it's cool. And 526 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 2: I mean his name's Jim. He's right over there. You'd 527 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 2: ask him, he'll let you. No, Sebastian Bach didn't want 528 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 2: to go through all that hassle, right, so he said 529 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 2: he went back to his seat with his friends and 530 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 2: I guess they've been drinking a little bit already. Yeah maybe, 531 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 2: you know, they say they were going around the world 532 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 2: like annoying teenagers at this point. Either way, they decided 533 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 2: they'll get the bar owner to come over to them. 534 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 2: So they start pelting the house musician with ice cubes 535 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: from where they're seated, right, But this isn't a big place. 536 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: This isn't like a raucous dive bar. Just imagine a 537 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,239 Speaker 2: small Canadian old town pub. Now the bar owner, he 538 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 2: does come over to their table, and he asked Sebastian 539 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 2: back to chill the f out, stop throwing ice cubes 540 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 2: at the house musician and heckling him, because they also 541 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: started heckling the kid who's just up there, like on 542 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: a stool with a guitar. At that point, Sebastian Bach 543 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 2: starts throwing ice cubes at the bar owner's face, who's 544 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 2: just right there in front of him. Like, I'm not 545 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 2: a rock star, Elizabeth. I've never been a rock star, 546 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 2: but I have to assume if I were a rock star, 547 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 2: I would know that throwing ice cubes at the some 548 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 2: house musician is not the way to get what I want. No, specifically, 549 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 2: I want to share the stage, kids working through the 550 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 2: Indigo girls cat out. Dude, I don't think ice cubes 551 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 2: are going to sway a Canadian bar owner anyway. The 552 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 2: bar owner's like, okay, time for you to go. So 553 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 2: at this point, real rockstar energy comes into play. Sebastian 554 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 2: Bach apparently decided to be the one who was offended, 555 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 2: so he's like, how dare you I am a former 556 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 2: lead singer of an eighties hair metal ban skin Row, 557 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 2: how dare you ask me to leave this premises? And 558 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: the bar owners like, you threw ice at my classical 559 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 2: guitar player. Get out? Yeah, so I don't know it 560 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 2: was a class guitar player. I just that's even better. 561 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 2: It's a classical guitar player. 562 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 3: And he's just like doing all these like and then 563 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 3: he's like, my friend. 564 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 2: Was to power ballad, you know eighteen in life. Now, 565 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 2: what I haven't told you up until now so they 566 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: wanted to save it is that this is all going 567 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 2: down in a wine bar. Wait, the Old Cube is 568 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 2: a wine bar? 569 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 3: Yes, Oh my god, do they do like a sip 570 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 3: and paint thing. 571 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 2: It gets better when Sebastian Bak takes issue with the owner. 572 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 2: He stands up with his wine glass and attempts to 573 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 2: swan out of the place, feeling all hurt and wounded. 574 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 2: So the bar owners like, you can't leave with that 575 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 2: glass of wine. Yeah, He's like he's doing his best 576 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 2: impression of Rihanna leaving with a glass of wine. But 577 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 2: he's like, when re Rey does it, it's like ultra cool. 578 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 2: When Sebastian Bak does it, just like me getting kicked 579 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 2: out of a bar in like a shopping mall in Florida, 580 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: it's just not nearly as cool. So it's like real 581 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 2: bad mammagama behavior. 582 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: Right. 583 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 2: So, on his way to being escorted out the door, 584 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 2: Sebastian Bach asked himself what would a real rockstar do 585 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 2: in this moment of petulance, and then he did his 586 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 2: best impression of that. So he decides he will take 587 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 2: his unfinished glass of wine and throw it down at 588 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: the floor, like I'm leaving anyway. I don't need this. 589 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 2: So in an interview with the outlet Checks TV, which 590 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: I have to assumes a Canadian TV station and not 591 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 2: a media outlet for the fine makers of Checks partys 592 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 2: and cereals. But actually I did Checks. I thought you 593 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 2: may ask checks TV is a local TV station coming 594 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: out of Peterborough, Ontario in the north. 595 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, is it there like public Access? No, it's like 596 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 4: a local channel just like Czechoslovakian. I think they do 597 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 4: C for Canada. And then everything's just like three letters. 598 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 4: I don't know anywhere TV. The bar owner said, he 599 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 4: raised his hand and threw the wineglass with the wine 600 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 4: in it as hard as he could on the floor, 601 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 4: shattering it. So at that point the bar owner was 602 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 4: like grab him and then decided, if you want to 603 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 4: have a job done right, you have to do it yourself. 604 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 2: Was it a buttery shard or a rob Imagine it's 605 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 2: a red, a robust red. Yeah, so maybe like a 606 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 2: like a uh maybe at Murlow. He seems like that 607 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 2: kind of guy to drink. I just like it. 608 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 3: Maybe it's like a Pinot Grigio, like a light summer. 609 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 2: One he likes to So at this point, the bar 610 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 2: owner goes and tackles Sebastian Bach before he gets out 611 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 2: the door so he can hold him for the police. 612 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 2: And as Sebastian Bach tells the story to Blabbermouth, I 613 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 2: ended up tackled up from behind. So the only thing 614 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 2: I could do, of course, was bite the dude. Oh 615 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 2: of course. So drunk and asked to leave. Clearly embarrassed, 616 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 2: he decides to raise the steaks to assault in some 617 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 2: light cannibal cosplay Rashshha. There's a video of the incident 618 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 2: that corroborates that that's pretty much exactly what happens. Or 619 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 2: you could take the word of Judd Smoke, who is 620 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 2: a friend of Sebastian Box Stop Judge, Stop suppress jud Smoke, 621 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 2: jud Smoke?

Sebast Jim 667 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 2: Bach told Blabbermouth I had to go and take a 668 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 2: rabies test to make sure I didn't have communicable diseases. 669 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 2: So we've talked about rabies because he bit the guy 670 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 2: so they had to go get a rais. He's a 671 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 2: dog that has to be tested for rabies. And you 672 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 2: and I have talked about rabies personally, like and I 673 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 2: just got to say that sounds like one of the 674 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 2: worst things I've ever heard about. And going up from rabies, I. 675 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 3: Ruined your day slash months, life month, dude. 676 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 2: The symptoms sounds like an old testament. 677 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 3: There's someone left a comment somewhere on Reddit and if. 678 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 2: You like search it like rabies like what happened. 679 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 5: I don't know. 680 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 2: I can't remember the search function I use. 681 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 3: But it is like a detailed, moment by moment description 682 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 3: of what happens from the moment you're bitten. 683 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 2: They don't know it. 684 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 4: Yes, I read it a painful death and I'm horrified. 685 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 3: I read it out loud to you and then I 686 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:44,719 Speaker 3: forwarded it to other people. 687 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 2: The whole fear of water is that is them. It 688 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 2: makes you irrationally afraid of water, so much so that 689 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: the rabies wants you to go out and die, so 690 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 2: that way scavengers will come along and eat your body 691 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 2: and then the rabies get spread. But it's it's a 692 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: genius alien virus. I hate it. Each each level of 693 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 2: it is just horrendous. It's one of the worst things 694 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 2: I've ever read. 695 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I'll figure out a way that we 696 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 3: can put the links. 697 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's terrible. Yeah. So anyway, the owner 698 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 2: of the bar demands a Sebastian Bach get a rabies 699 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 2: test because he doesn't want this either, right, and you 700 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 2: know what, I don't blame him. So after he went 701 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 2: to the doctor, gods, he's walking around rabbit. Well, I mean, 702 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 2: one in a million is high enough for me. I 703 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 2: think you're more likely to get some sort of STV. 704 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, much more likely, but you can get both, Elizabeth. So, 705 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 2: after he went to the doctor for his mandatory court 706 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:42,280 Speaker 2: ordered rabies test, the Canadian American hair metal rocker proudly 707 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 2: proclaimed to the world, happy to say, I'm rabies free. 708 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 2: I'm not rabbit. So there you go. Sebastian Bach legally 709 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 2: declared not rabbit. 710 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 3: I am so sorry for Canada and if you're one, 711 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 3: they're nice people. 712 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 2: They don't deserve most of the rock stars that come 713 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 2: out of Canada, but Canada is like I don't just 714 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 2: come on. They're from Wisconsin, Neil Young, Nickelback, Chad Kroeger. 715 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 2: They're from Canada. Oh yeah. So if you were wondering 716 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 2: about him catching charges, the Courts Center Ontario decided to 717 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 2: drop the charges for the bite and the general ice 718 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 2: cube battery. Yes for justice. Sebastian Bach did donate seven 719 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,840 Speaker 2: hundred dollars to charity as recompense for the broken wineglass. 720 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 2: What was the charity? I did not ask the Sebastian 721 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 2: box exactly. So there you go. That's your Sebastian Boch 722 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 2: fun for today. But you have one more story for 723 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 2: you about a Sebastian Bock as in the OG, Johann 724 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 2: Sebastian Boch, the guy. That guy also spent time inside 725 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 2: locked up and guests. There's just something about them back boys, Elizabeth. 726 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 2: So let's take a break after these messages. I'll tell 727 00:35:44,040 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 2: you about the OG bad Boy Sebastian Box, Elizabeth, We're back, hi, 728 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 2: and have I got a hell of a finisher for you? 729 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 2: I bet you do. 730 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 3: So. 731 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: I was doing some research, right and I had to 732 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 2: go hit up Wikipedia to find out Sebastian Bach's parents' names. 733 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 2: And at the top of his Wikipedia page is this 734 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 2: disambiguation note. You know, one of those sentences has this 735 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 2: article is about X for articles on why I see 736 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 2: this other person or whatever? Right well, on Sebastian Box 737 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 2: Wikipedia page is a disambiguation note, and he reads this 738 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 2: article is about the heavy metal singer for the baroque 739 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 2: composer see Johann Sebastian Bach, and I just want to 740 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 2: sit on the shoulder someone who's looking for info on 741 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 2: Johann Sebastian Bach and mistakenly reads Sebastian Box Wikipedia and 742 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 2: gets the two musicians confused. You're always telling people fun 743 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 2: facts about this genius, Sebastian Box. You know what's gonna happen. 744 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 2: You know what? 745 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 4: He did a counterpoint chat gpt ais you have an 746 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 4: emergence scan that and then some ding dong fourth graders 747 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 4: he asked to write a report. 748 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 3: On Johann Sebastian Box talking about to and he's gonna 749 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 3: go off on a wine bar brawl at the rabies 750 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,439 Speaker 3: determination of the fourth grade teachers to be like, this 751 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 3: is why I'm. 752 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 2: Quitting at the end of the year. I could just 753 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 2: see it. The whole movie is playing out in my 754 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,799 Speaker 2: head right now. So this this is what I want 755 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 2: to tell you about the O. G. Bach, JS Bach, 756 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 2: Johann Sebastian, the real deal. Yeah. So primarily people in 757 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 2: the note say that Bach was a prolific composer, a 758 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 2: man who heard God in the notes of a clavichord. 759 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 2: His most famous works are the Takata and Fugue and 760 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 2: Reiner I mentioned that the brandon Burg Concertos, the Goldberg Variations, 761 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 2: the well tempered Clavier. The man was known to bust 762 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 2: out a corral at the drop of the hat. Right, 763 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 2: I mean, generous lover. He came from a family of musicians. 764 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 2: Keep that thought in mind. Oh God, he's chief among them. 765 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,959 Speaker 2: The man eight slept and breathed music when he wasn't 766 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 2: being a generous level But also we treat him like 767 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 2: we treat all dead classical geniuses, as like a bit 768 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 2: of like an NPR listening fuddy. Right, and let me 769 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 2: tell you, Elizabeth, that could not be further from the 770 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 2: truth when it comes to Johann Sebastian Bach, namesake of 771 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,359 Speaker 2: the hair Metal Frontman now the Og. Bach was born 772 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: in sixteen eighty five and he spent his prolific working 773 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 2: years in what would come to be called Germany. But 774 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 2: during his time there it was a patchwork of dukes 775 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 2: and duchies and mad princes. There was no Germany yet, 776 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 2: and as a working musician he had to bounce around 777 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 2: a bit dealing with these dukes and duchies and mad 778 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 2: princes while he was looking for a steady gig in 779 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 2: the courts. And his job seeking was made more difficult 780 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 2: by the fact that j. S. Bach was something of 781 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 2: a bad boy, and he's dealing with all these what 782 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,839 Speaker 2: future Germans, right, they were like, we're not tense. So 783 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 2: he was not the white haired, sober minded Lutheran that 784 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 2: most folks would imagine. The conductor John Elliott Gardner he 785 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 2: wrote a biography of the composer, and he commented on 786 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: this character of Bach, the subversive as he called him, 787 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 2: and he said that we need to reimagine the man 788 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 2: because quote suppose in said, we start to view him 789 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,919 Speaker 2: as an unlikely rebel. Oh yeah, exactly thought thought well 790 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 2: in mind, which is certainly something you know. I would 791 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 2: say this about any teacher who fights his students, or 792 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 2: a proud young man who gets locked up for a 793 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 2: month because he bristles at the power structure of his day. 794 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 2: That's JS block. Also apparently a thirsty fella. Back went 795 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 2: on a two week trip and he came back and 796 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 2: he handed over receipts from his travel. He could get 797 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 2: recompensed by the church for his travel expenses. So Back 798 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 2: charged the church a ton for all the beer he 799 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 2: was drinking two week trip. Right. He drank eight gallons 800 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 2: of beer during that two week trip in two weeks. No, 801 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 2: I did the conversion math for you, because I know 802 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,280 Speaker 2: I love conversions. I do. There's one hundred and twenty 803 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 2: eight fluid ounces per gallon. He did eight of those, 804 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 2: So he worked that out. Eight is two to the third, 805 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty eight is two to the seventh 806 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:47,399 Speaker 2: at the exponent exponents, and then that's a oneenty twenty four. Right, 807 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 2: So if you divided that, calculate he divide that by 808 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 2: twelve ounces, which is the amount of fluid a beer 809 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 2: in a can. That works out to be about eighty 810 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 2: five and a third beers. Now, if you divide that 811 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 2: by fourteen days, which means he's drinking every single day 812 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 2: the same eight Monday through Sunday, that's an average of 813 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 2: six beers a day every day of his fourteen day trip. 814 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 2: So he's drunk on Sunday tips everything. So thank god 815 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 2: he also had beer added to one of his contracts 816 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 2: of employment. Those are the beers that he bought, yes, exactly, 817 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 2: he was the one that other people bought for him, exactly. 818 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 2: So yeah, so Bach apparently made sure there was a 819 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 2: stipulation in his contract that so he had access to 820 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 2: tax free beer, and not just any beer. He demanded 821 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 2: the pilsners and loggers from the castle's brewery. He wanted 822 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 2: the good stuff. What's the Prince dring? That's what I 823 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 2: want on ryding Heid School Bolton stuff. So he wasn't, 824 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 2: by the way, when he wasn't maintaining his buzz. Apparently 825 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 2: Bach was also remembered to meet young ladies for a 826 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 2: rendezvous and the organ loft. I think they said that 827 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 2: his organ had no stops. Oh, can'd invite them up 828 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 2: there to check the pipes. So exactly how did young 829 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 2: JS bock wind up behind bars? How did you fantastic question? Elizabeth? Well, 830 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 2: the year was seventeen o eight. I remember it was 831 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,959 Speaker 2: I thought you did, right, JS bock Cock Shuer twenty 832 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 2: three year old musical Theenom. He'd been hired as the 833 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 2: court organist for the city of Wymar, as in the 834 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,280 Speaker 2: city that would later be known as the name provider 835 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 2: for the Wymar Republic or Wymar you prefer it that way? Yes, anyway, 836 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 2: the young bach is hired to play the organ right, 837 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 2: and he's good. No one has any complaints about the 838 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 2: ser fingers on the lasts six years in the Vymar 839 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,760 Speaker 2: court and he's eventually appointed as the Concertmeister. That's concert 840 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 2: with a K and a Z in the middle of it. 841 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 3: What it means is the forgotten name of a Ski album. 842 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 2: So this means is he's the music director of the court. 843 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 5: Right. 844 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 2: So this also means he's now responsible for composing original 845 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,479 Speaker 2: works for a talented ensemble of musicians. However, this also 846 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 2: means he has to take orders from his not one, 847 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 2: but two bosses, the kapell Meister and the vice copel Meister. Okay, 848 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 2: and I know what those roles are because I love 849 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 2: the movie Amadais. But the kapel Meister is the main 850 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 2: conductor of the orchestra or the ensemble musicians. So the 851 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 2: big boss, the guy whoused to stand there and waved 852 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 2: the baton. Yeah, this case, it was a father and 853 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 2: son acte. Yeah, because of the seventeen hundreds and more 854 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 2: oft than that, men went into the family Businessmick. So 855 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 2: he's got his like, you know, he's got his fail 856 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 2: son as his vice Coppelmeister. And then the Kapellmeister dies 857 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 2: and his failed son takes over and js back loses it. 858 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,239 Speaker 2: He's like, because anybody who has ears to hear the 859 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 2: beauty of his music knows that the job should go 860 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 2: to js Buck. This is He's just like, it's insulting otherwise, right, 861 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,839 Speaker 2: and he certainly knew this. So to make matters worse, 862 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 2: he thought the vice Copelmeister was just an abject failure 863 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 2: as a person and as a man. So he didn't 864 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,439 Speaker 2: respect him to like him. And so what does he do, Well, 865 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 2: the bad boy of the seventeen hundreds, he's got he's 866 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 2: got to step out, right, Yeah, he's got to get 867 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 2: free of this. So he does he starts circulating his 868 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 2: curriculum vita, his musical resume. He's like, would you like 869 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,280 Speaker 2: to read this? Check this out, I've got this on parchment, 870 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 2: vellm whatever you like, And he's able to scoop up 871 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 2: a new gig right at the end of the summer 872 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 2: seventeen seventeen, he's named the Kapellmeister of the Court of 873 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 2: Prince Leopold of the State of Cuttin. Right now, there 874 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 2: was one person who could stop him from taking his 875 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 2: new job. His old boss, a man named Wilhelm Ernst 876 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 2: but Elizabeth, you would call him the Duke of Saxon Weimar, 877 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 2: and he was an intolerant Lutheran man. His brother was 878 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 2: the co Duke, but he was such a drunk. He 879 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 2: was only co Duke in name. Only everybody knew oh 880 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 2: yeah yeah. And when his brother passed he got a 881 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:23,720 Speaker 2: new co Duke. It was like a whole power sharing. 882 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 2: The Germans didn't want anyone have too much power. It's 883 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,320 Speaker 2: why they stayed apart in all their old duchies for 884 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 2: so long. Anyway, Wilhelm Ernst he holds power and as 885 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 2: such he hears this young star concertmeister plans to leave 886 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 2: his court and find better employment. Elsewhere with Prince Leopold. 887 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 2: Right after this slight of watching this idiot son take 888 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 2: a job that rightfully should go to him, so he decides, well, 889 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 2: I'm going to teach this young js Bock how things 890 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 2: go down and sacks Viymar so he rejects box resignation. 891 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 2: He teaches him a lesson in power politics and tells him, see, no, baby, 892 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 2: you ain't going nowhere. He baby you and me, but 893 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 2: he says like in German right, But my man, js Bock, 894 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,479 Speaker 2: he's stubborn, he's hard headed, he's young. So he kept 895 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 2: at it. He kept trying to resign and the Duke 896 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 2: was like, I thought you had good is baby. You 897 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 2: ain't hearing me. You ain't going nowhere, but again like 898 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,439 Speaker 2: in German right. So finally, in November, when he should 899 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 2: have been preparing his Christmas Mass program at his new gig, 900 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 2: js Bock is absolutely losing it like he was losing 901 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 2: it before. Now it's erupting from his skin. Right. I 902 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 2: wish I could tell you who he popped off at. 903 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,880 Speaker 2: I don't know, but we do know that he popped 904 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 2: off in the court of the Duchy and everyone was like, 905 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 2: oh no, because young hot headed Bock just was like 906 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:41,399 Speaker 2: basically yelling fire me, fire me, fire me, which, by 907 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 2: the way, my friend Dave once did exactly this at 908 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 2: dream Works until Jeffrey Katzenberg was like, Okay, fine, I 909 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 2: fire you, you can go. So this behavior still goes 910 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 2: on today, is what I'm saying. And Dave would be 911 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 2: amused that I just compared him to JS Box, So 912 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 2: rip Dave. Anyway, back to js Bock and Duke Wilhelm 913 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,840 Speaker 2: Ernst and they're out of stubbornness so young back he 914 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:03,879 Speaker 2: goes ham in the court a saxsify mar and Duke 915 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 2: will Hummers is like, you do know I have my 916 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,360 Speaker 2: home prison, right baby? So js Bock gets to know 917 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,279 Speaker 2: the Fortress prison firsthand, up close personal. He gets to 918 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 2: know the feel of the cold damp stones and guess 919 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,359 Speaker 2: what my man does once he's locked up. He's like, cool, cool, 920 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 2: I still want to resign. Yeah, just keeps pushing it right, 921 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 2: So he tries to wait out the Duke's anger, and 922 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,399 Speaker 2: it's like he hopes that he'll find some like new 923 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 2: something else to get him mad about and eventually let 924 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 2: him go. That does not happen, So Back is like, 925 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 2: well kind of these gets some work done, americ, can 926 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:32,919 Speaker 2: he bring me some pens and paper and something ink? 927 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 2: And the Duke is like, he's belligerent, but he's not 928 00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 2: like a capricious man, so he's like, give him some 929 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 2: pens and paper. So at this point js Bock writes 930 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 2: a good piece of the well tempered Clavier. 931 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 5: Yeah right. 932 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 2: So more time passes, Jasbock is writing up his masterpiece. 933 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 2: The Duke is flexing his power on him. After like 934 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,800 Speaker 2: a week, the Duke is like, has the concertmister changed 935 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 2: his mind yet?

And then more time passes, 940 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 2: the Duke would get curious and ask if the concertmeister 941 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 2: had to change into thinking yet, and the jailers would 942 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,359 Speaker 2: ask him and he would change his mind and he'd 943 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 2: be like, I need more pens and paper but no, 944 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:14,239 Speaker 2: and oh, by the way, tell the Duke to fire me. 945 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 2: So the Duke would hear this and be like ha, 946 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,040 Speaker 2: and he'd like throw like a pork leg across the 947 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,479 Speaker 2: room in anger or whatever. Right, Now, keep in mind 948 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 2: back is young, he's thirty two, and he's also super 949 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:27,800 Speaker 2: about that bedlife. So he's got six kids, a wife 950 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 2: at home, whoa, and he's locked up in a prison 951 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,879 Speaker 2: fortress for a month and doesn't know when it's gonna end. Yes, 952 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 2: still doesn't give in. I impressed it, but that anyway. Finally, 953 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,360 Speaker 2: after a month of this, the Duke is like, is 954 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 2: that catjs box still counting him on the living And 955 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 2: everyone's like, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah he is.

I don't think we're gonna break him. He's 958 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,319 Speaker 2: really ruin in the mood in my court. Let him go. 959 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 2: So they let him go, and I was like, all right, December. 960 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,319 Speaker 2: After a month inside jailers turn him loose, right, and 961 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 2: he finally accepts of resignation. Now he can leave. So 962 00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,799 Speaker 2: js Bach has sprung for the pen. He swoops up 963 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 2: his brew to kids, his young wife, He splits town. 964 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 2: He heads to a new home in anhalt curtain right 965 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 2: I mentioned earlier, Yeah, now that's where he would go 966 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 2: on to write a Brandenburg concertos and do all the 967 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 2: famous stuff. But I mentioned earlier how he, as a 968 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 2: young man, also fought his students as their teacher. Yeah, 969 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 2: when he was first starting out, before he was the 970 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 2: concertsmeister at the Weimar Court, Bach was a music teacher, 971 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,799 Speaker 2: just a normal music teacher. Trouble for him was he 972 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,760 Speaker 2: was eighteen years old, dang, so his students were barely 973 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,799 Speaker 2: younger than him. Some are actually older than him, and 974 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,279 Speaker 2: they often were bigger than him, so he got very 975 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 2: used to them not treating him with the appropriate amount 976 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 2: of respect that he at least expected. Consequently, Bach wasn't 977 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 2: a big fan of his students. So also he's his 978 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,240 Speaker 2: hot headed musical phenom and he's stuck teaching know nothings 979 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 2: how to like not sound terrible on the harpsichord. Yeah, 980 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:53,080 Speaker 2: so he just hates it right, And some of his 981 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,400 Speaker 2: students were known hard cases, so much so that the 982 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 2: local city council referred to his students as scandalous. They 983 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,799 Speaker 2: are in the like, oh, that's the scandalous students over 984 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,839 Speaker 2: at such and such. Yeah, So for two years he's 985 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 2: teaching this hard scrabble lot of n'er dowells and they've 986 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 2: taken to making fun of him outside of class because 987 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 2: they don't like him. And the students have all these 988 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,839 Speaker 2: taunting nicknames for their young teacher. They see them out, 989 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,440 Speaker 2: they follow him, they harass him because it's like, what 990 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,360 Speaker 2: are you gonna do outside of class? You can't do 991 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 2: anything outside of class? Right once again, but in German. Yeah, 992 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 2: so it gets so bad that young Bok starts carrying 993 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 2: a blade on him. It's only a matter of time 994 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,919 Speaker 2: until the inevitable occurred. The worst among the students, both 995 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 2: in behavior and in musical talent, was a cat named 996 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,399 Speaker 2: geiers Bach. Yeah, and so there's three years older than Bach. 997 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,319 Speaker 2: He's the main bully of the bunch. He was also 998 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 2: a bassoonist. Just thought I should throw that in there, bassonists. 999 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,120 Speaker 2: One night, geiers Bach is out with the boys, and 1000 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 2: who do they see but young Bach out for an 1001 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 2: evening constitutional with his cousin Barbara Katharina. They're in the 1002 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 2: town's market square, so the center of town, and that's 1003 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,399 Speaker 2: where geiers Back the boys is laying about and they 1004 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 2: spot their teacher Bock come into the town square, and 1005 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 2: so what do they do? They go harass him in 1006 00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:00,719 Speaker 2: the town square, only this time geyers Bach grabs like 1007 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:03,280 Speaker 2: a big stick, like a broken piece of tree branch, 1008 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 2: and he storms over to Bach. And this cat, geyers 1009 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,880 Speaker 2: Bach is bigger than Bach, and I'm guessing he's also 1010 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,319 Speaker 2: like had a few. So Geyer's Bach gets in box 1011 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 2: face and he spits all these angry hot words and 1012 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 2: if they have like an ignorant tone. He's like, if 1013 00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:19,360 Speaker 2: I have you been making abusive remarks about me? Teach 1014 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 2: you right? And Bach can sense the trouble le bruin, 1015 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 2: so he lies and he says, no, no, never, I 1016 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 2: would never make abusive remarks about you. Whoever told you 1017 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:29,960 Speaker 2: that he's a liar? Right? And so Geyer's Bach is like, okay, 1018 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 2: well maybe that's maybe true, but you've insulted my bassoon playing, 1019 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 2: and anyone who insults my bassoon insults me. So Bach 1020 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 2: is like, whoa chill guyers back, man, come on, But 1021 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 2: he's not hearing it, and he's not hearing it so 1022 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 2: much so that it explodes into this event. Well, rather 1023 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 2: than me just tell you about Elizabeth, I'd like you 1024 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 2: to close your eyes and I want you to picture it. 1025 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 2: It's a pleasant summer evening in the walled town of 1026 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,919 Speaker 2: Arntstat in the Dutch of Thuringia in what will later 1027 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 2: be eastern central Germany. At the moment, you are enjoying 1028 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 2: the sweet summer evening breeze as children gamble about the 1029 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,959 Speaker 2: town square, running off their excess energy. As elders gather 1030 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 2: in small clusters on the edge, watching the exuberance of 1031 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 2: youth with their wizened smiles. You are in the middle, 1032 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,760 Speaker 2: neither child nor elder. You are an adult of working age, 1033 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,560 Speaker 2: specifically the town's best bookmaker. You are well regarded for 1034 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 2: your artistry, and you make a living turning out beautiful 1035 00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 2: gilded editions of beloved classics and new books penned by 1036 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 2: Thuringia's finest minds. You were on your walk home when 1037 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,319 Speaker 2: you decided to stop and buy a small bowl of 1038 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 2: zweibelsupa and a slice of poppy seed strudel and sit 1039 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,400 Speaker 2: for a short spell to enjoy the transition into evening. 1040 00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 2: But the pleasant evening vibe is about to be shattered 1041 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 2: by a local thug, a bassoon player named geyers Block. 1042 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 2: You don't see how it began, but you hear it escalate. 1043 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 2: You set down your cup of onion soup and your Strudel, 1044 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,919 Speaker 2: and you turn your attention to the developing scene. See 1045 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 2: the much larger man, the local thug and bassoon player 1046 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:05,920 Speaker 2: Geyer's Back, is brandishing some sort of large stick and 1047 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 2: threatening the young music teacher, Johann Sebastian Bach. You hear 1048 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 2: geyers Back shout as his teacher, you dirty dog. Then 1049 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,919 Speaker 2: he swings the branch with the clear aim to knock 1050 00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:20,279 Speaker 2: his teacher's head loose from his shoulders. But Bach is 1051 00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 2: no young ninny. He reaches into his overcoat and draws 1052 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:26,440 Speaker 2: out a knife. He lets the bully bassoonist see the 1053 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:30,360 Speaker 2: blade's cool, steely reflection as it catches a glint of moonlight. 1054 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 2: Being ignorant as he is, Geyer's back charges in with 1055 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,280 Speaker 2: the broken tree branch. It takes a few more slings. 1056 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 2: Young Bach lets that blade sing in the air. He 1057 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 2: jabs and stabs as he dodges the angry bassoonist tree branch. 1058 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,640 Speaker 2: You gasp when you see Bach thrust with his dagger 1059 00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 2: at the midsection. Tryers back. The blade is lost in 1060 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 2: his overcoat and does not draw back. Bloody. It misses 1061 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 2: the bully bassoonist by a mere inch or two. Geyers 1062 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 2: Back tosses down his bro can tree branch and he 1063 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,839 Speaker 2: tackles Bock around the mid section. The two young men 1064 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 2: crash against the cobblestone in the market. They continue to 1065 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 2: wrestle and to throw blows. At this point other men 1066 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:13,919 Speaker 2: and passers by rush into the scene to separate the two. 1067 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 2: Before Bob kills the bully bassoonist Geyer's back, the crowd 1068 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 2: pulls the two young men part. If you feel a 1069 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 2: wave of relief, you watch as the hot head back 1070 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 2: gets up, brushes himself off. His cousin Barbara Katherina helps 1071 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,280 Speaker 2: him dust off, and then they go on about their walk. 1072 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 2: A few of his students, Geyers box crew have to 1073 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,280 Speaker 2: hold the bully bassoonists back long enough for the music 1074 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 2: teacher and his cousin to leave the market square. You 1075 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 2: sigh to yourself, just another night in downtown Arnstadt. Since 1076 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 2: he loved arguing before a court or a prince or 1077 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 2: a duke jays, Boch did not let this matter go 1078 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,320 Speaker 2: on that evening attack, so instead he had his cousin 1079 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:57,960 Speaker 2: Barbara Katherina come with him and be the star witness 1080 00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 2: as he brought the matter before the town council of Arnstadt, 1081 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 2: and speaking on his own behalf was geyers Back, and 1082 00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 2: he spoke up for his actions that fateful evening. Now, 1083 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,719 Speaker 2: geiers Back said that his anger was understandable since, on 1084 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 2: more than one occasion, in front of others in the 1085 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:16,839 Speaker 2: youth music ensemble, his teacher jab s Bach had called 1086 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:21,400 Speaker 2: him quote a nanny goat bassoonist. So the argument did 1087 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:23,440 Speaker 2: not sway the town council, but they also ruled that 1088 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 2: no punishment was necessary. Kind of mixed bag of justice, 1089 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 2: no harm, no fault decision, I suppose. Anyway, the town 1090 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,399 Speaker 2: council did instruct the music teacher to try to win 1091 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 2: over his students so that way they didn't feel that 1092 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 2: they have to assault him in the town square. Anyway. 1093 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 2: Those are a few choice moments from the life of 1094 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 2: rebel bad boy Johann Sebastian Bach, which just goes to 1095 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 2: show you, Elizabeth, whether it's Sebastian Bach of skid Row 1096 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 2: or Johann Sebastian Bach, sometimes you're gonna get tackled for 1097 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,880 Speaker 2: being a hothead, and that's just what happens when your 1098 00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:55,319 Speaker 2: name Bach Sebastian Bach. Centuries may separate them, but their 1099 00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:57,880 Speaker 2: names and their public's reaction to their musical genius is 1100 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:01,799 Speaker 2: the same. Some would tackle that guy anyway, and people 1101 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,080 Speaker 2: always watching out they have that same reaction. What the 1102 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:08,400 Speaker 2: buck is going on? So what's our ridiculous takeaway? Here? Elizabeth? 1103 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,920 Speaker 2: Always ask yourself, what would Keith Richards do? That's a 1104 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 2: good rule. I'm gonna get you that a shirt. What's 1105 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,840 Speaker 2: your ridiculous takeaway? People have been the same forever. You 1106 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:19,960 Speaker 2: should remember that when we're looking backwards to time. Yeah, 1107 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 2: you should remember that when we're looking at each other presently, 1108 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:24,719 Speaker 2: remember that when we're looking forward at the future, people 1109 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 2: will always be the same. There's nothing new under the sun, 1110 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:29,479 Speaker 2: just new technology here and there, but back to back 1111 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 2: people are mostly the same.
