Speaker 1: to agency of guys, but it's just really lovely to

14
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: have a chat. It's nice to be able to look

15
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: at the other end of COVID finally and go, hey,

16
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: something good came. I wrote a record, you know.

17
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 4: Yeah? And also this is full of great sadness. You

18
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 4: can hear the emotion in your voice cracking when you

19
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 4: sing about your late far.

20
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 2: Oh look, let's just have a listen to a little

21
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 2: bit of back on country.

22
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: You mad be black, you.

23
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 2: Could be white.

24
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: The common jaw one in the chas feeling your melly,

25
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: your welcome man is far.

26
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: So many generations between this weekend entries.

27
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: Flowing lagger river down to dream men.

28
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: Please, I've got.

29
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 3: Good, so good, It's beautiful, Troy, And I know that

30
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 3: your father passed away not long before.

31
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 2: Was this song about him? Or the songs on the album?

32
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: I look, some of the songs were definitely aimed at

33
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: my dad. And you know, losing someone like that that

34
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: you normally would be visiting or getting on the phone

35
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: too on a regular occurrence, it's pretty hard, I think,

36
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: coming into COVID too and losing all the work that

37
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: we had. I mean, I'm not going to winge. There

38
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: were a lot more people worse off than me, but

39
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: it really did put me in quite a little dark space.

40
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: So I use music, I think, to get myself out.

41
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: Laura and I went through the hardest like eighteen months

42
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: two and a half years of our life. Now. I

43
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: mean that you will remember a drunken call one night

44
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: when I called you for some marriage counseling, you know, can.

45
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 3: I say I was hugely privileged that you called me

46
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 3: and you said, Laurel will listen to you tell her

47
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 3: how much I love her.

48
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 2: And I thought it was beautiful.

49
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: I thought it was beautiful, And the thing was, I mean,

50
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,959
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't really intend to call you but

51
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: it was one of those rays that I thought only

52
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: Amanda Keller could be the lifeline here for the ponent friends.

53
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: So you have others that these things do come along

54
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: every now and then, and sometimes they're worse than other times.

55
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: But I used I think music and Laura and I actually,

56
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: you know, I had a chance to reconcile a lot

57
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: more during COVID too, because of the fact that we

58
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: had all our different sort of time together instead of

59
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: me being away on the road and not being able

60
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: to fixed stuff. So out of the bad comes a

61
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 1: lot of good too.

62
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 4: And you've been touring with Midnight Oil.

63
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: Oh Jonesy. You know you've been in the crowd, probably

64
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: as a young bloke when they first came out with

65
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: all the hits, and we've been in a sweety mess

66
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: watching them and singing along with those. Well, let me

67
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: tell you, when you're fifty years old and you're standing

68
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: in amongst the band in a sweaty mess, it's like

69
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 1: being in the middle of a cyclone. It's been the

70
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 1: biggest privilege I've had in a long time to tour

71
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: with them. Their Macarata project has really just been about

72
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: raising awareness to the ULARU. Statement from the heart and

73
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: it's been a.

74
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 4: Wonderful Did you get to dance with Pete?

75
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: I did a bit of dance with Pete. What an

76
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,399
Speaker 1: amazing man he is to watch. I'm not even sure

77
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: of his age. I know he will and truly be

78
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: on to sixty, but he can outdance anyone. And he

79
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: even make sure that all the stage is clear. I reckon,

80
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: so there's plenty of room for him to do his thinging.

81
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: And he's just such an engaging singer. I realized that

82
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: from when I was in the crowd as a young

83
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: bloke in twenties. But when you're up close and you

84
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: see how he actually really can engage an audience, and

85
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: he's very engaging when he's right next to you too.

86
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: Obviously he's a big bloke, but an incredible message. The

87
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: songs are still exactly the same as they were back

88
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: in the late seventies early eighties, but the message is

89
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: still strong and everyone is still really responsive to it.

90
00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 4: And you can never accuse me, not all, of getting

91
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 4: onto a band. They built the bandwagon.

92
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: Oh mate, they're the wheels. How yeah, they were rolling

93
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: with it well and truly before it was cool to

94
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: talk about anything like that. And I think the thing

95
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: that has really astunded me is that there are a

96
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: lot of people of my age that are coming now

97
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: as adults and who have got grown kids, and they're saying, look,

98
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: we didn't realize back in the day. A lot of

99
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: the people didn't realize how political the band was until

100
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 1: now they go as adults, they know what we have

101
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: to do through these songs. So it's pretty pretty big

102
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: Ephany for everyone there it is.

103
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 4: This is great. Well, we've got to go because Eddie

104
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 4: MacGuire is on the line. He wants to talk to

105
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 4: a man. He's got some stuff's got some issues he's

106
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 4: got to deal with.

107
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: Please give my love to Laurel, won't you?

108
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: Look? I sure will, And it's great to talk to

109
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: you both. And then thanks for the yarn And like

110
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: I say, making new music after COVID was a miracle

111
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: for me, and to be able to write your way

112
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: out of that adversity was truly a great experience.

113
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 4: And the new album The World to Day is out today.

114
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 4: Troy Castle Daily, thank you so much.

115
