00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 3: talk about it, having a rotten day, you can talk

53
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 3: to him about it, so otherwise you're not gonna go

54
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,720

62
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 1: end up selling out, I think for this country feast,

63
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: I hope.

64
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,160

66
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 3: Does got Josh Wyatt, then myself, then the Captain who

67
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 3: are just amazing, and then DJ Sonics So it goes

68
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 3: too late, so.

69
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 2: That's it's gonna be good. It's gonna be good.

70
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 3: And you know, I'm excited about because I don't often

71
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 3: get to play with a big band. So I've got

72
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,519
Speaker 3: a few of the captain players playing for me and

73
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 3: a few others, so it's going to be fun.

74
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 4: How different is it then, like when you're playing with

75
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 4: the big band?

76
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 3: Oh, just look playing just acoustically and just with your

77
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 3: brother has its advantages too. It's very you can move

78
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 3: in the music a bit more, you can slow it down,

79
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 3: or it's more intimate. But when you've got a big band,

80
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 3: I do like loud music myself, and I love it

81
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 3: when you get the electric guitar playing and just gets

82
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 3: just viby and fires everyone up and makes for a

83
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 3: good afternoon.

84
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 4: Oh it is going to be awesome.

85
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,040
