So
You
What's happened you bad motherfuckers i dream of genie with a 10-foot weenie you know i'm saying
It's wednesday cocksuckers get your shit together. It's a beautiful fucking day to be alive. I'm feeling great
I'm sorry about the podcast. I'm not even fucking sorry. I just had to tell you how I feel. That's it. Listen, man
Ever since I moved that I left this dude alone is it's like you're dealing with a fucking retard
But as usual people get fucking froggy when the fucking king is away
So now I got to come back and reclaim my mother fucking throne
You understand me and we're working on it cocksuckers, but it's great. It's wednesday. I'm feeling good. I had a great fucking week
I don't know if you guys got to watch
The uh show on hbo came on monday night with john burnt all we were supposed to he was supposed to be a guest today
We got rudy instead, but we'll have burnt all on next week to talk about uh, we own the city
You watching mike
Not bad the first episode was kind of fucking slow, but john was great. The characters were great
You know, I like that wire writing. I like all that shit ghetto. I live for that stuff
It's great. It's uh, yeah, they always get going for like the third episode
But hopefully we'll have john uh
Next week. I got rudy today rudy's one of my favorite fucking people guys ever since I've
met him
He's always been like an older uncle like I I could ask him advice on anything because
Music comedy entertainment. It all goes hand in fucking hand a comedian is a failed musician
And a musician is a comedian who was fucking smart, you know saying that he said fuck going on a row with no guitar
I got to protect myself and shit in case will smith wants to come up here some shit, but all jokes aside now
I've had great talks of rudy. We talk about you know, just the business and how he sees it how I see it
you know
I started taking some guitar lessons from and it's fucking crazy
Like compared to my teacher that I was paying 40 bucks rudy was
30 times better
And it's so weird when you get a lesson
From somebody who he's a fucking legend guys. I mean
White snake, you know, it's just so many fucking things, but he's not a legend because of his bass playing
I'll tell you that much. He's a legend because he's a good fucking guy, man. And uh
He just feels you know, if if you're smart and you're a young musician, I would follow rudy
He gives some great fucking advice. He's not uh a partier. He's not a heavy metal banger, you know
It's so funny when you meet people what you
You
Portray them to be like, uh, who's the crazy guy? I like the guy that does all the
Ozzy Oz one shit, you know, he does he's got his own band
Fucking crazy dude with a beard, you know, Zach Wilde, you know, Zach Wilde, I love Zach Wilde
But you know what I love about Zach Wilde? I love everything I hear about
I love that when Zach goes on tour. He goes on tour. There ain't no shine. We're there ain't no shave and
You're just gonna be a fucking rough neck and stink. I love all that shit. But then when he's home
He's a dad. He shaves the beard. He's at his kid's softball games, you know
These are like split
You have to have like a split life in this and you have to be cool with it
If not, you know how many times I was sitting there eating dinner with
mercy and my wife and we're talking about like, you know
Stupid kid shit and before that we're saying prayers and while she's saying prayers
I'm like, I gotta go down to the store an hour
And unleash a beret of fucking curses racial epitets and all this shit. This is this is double life
Nobody believes this shit. Like I'm sitting here
Same prayers with my hands up like a half a fag and everything
And then now I'm gonna be at the comedy store yelling and screaming talking about sucking my dick guys. It's not normal, but
You know, you you you fucking figure it out. I couldn't imagine
Being like for me
I would love to be like in a band and have my kids and go fishing and shit
And then tuesday night you show up in philadelphia. You're on stage with led zeppelin with gongs and
You know, you look over your shoulder and there's fucking john bonham fucking playing the shit out of the drums drinking jack daniels and shit
People throwing your joints underwears are flying. You're like, I can't wait
To get back to freehold that I saw football game on fucking saturday. This is craziness. It's it's
It's insanity when you mixed it to like I learned from Joe Rogan
Because he already had daughters and he had a a step daughter and I'm like, how the fuck do you do it?
You go out you'd be crazy. You smoke dope. Then you got to go home and face these fucking kids. Let me tell you
Dog, I try my hardest not to smoke around my kid, but I'm not I try even harder
Not to be stoned about it because I don't know what the fuck she's talking about when I'm sober
So can you about rick duke him and one of my fucking idols had a great joke that he had to stop smoking dope when he had his kids
Because his kids were asking the creepy questions while he was stoned like that
How come you drink grape juice? It goes in purple, but it comes out yellow and he would go
Let me he got to get back to me on that was one of my favorite fucking jokes rick duke him and rest his soul
but
It's uh, it's it's really fucking hard guys and that's what I was having a hard time with when I got back here
I was like, what the fuck am I doing? I like I felt like I was the mafia
Like every night I'm having dinner with a nice girl and another nice woman and then I gotta go kill somebody
I gotta go shoot somebody in the fucking head and then come back like nothing happened
Like I would go to the store on a Tuesday night
There's cake quickly would be telling me run
There's a checker wants to suck your dick in the back and I would get out
You know after I would do one show and then smoke a blunt and then they give you a box of abx edibles
And then you go to the original room and do another set and then I gotta go home and walk in
It's like hi and my daughter's cadet. We watched
Harry Potter and fucking he ate the monologue or whatever the fuck they do on harry potter
How do you think I don't know what she's talking about? It's like I just came from the store
Where some woman was telling fucking my friend. She wanted to suck my dick
I had to run out of and I come home to fucking harry potter and disney movies and and kanto and shit
It's tough, but guess what I'm getting ready to go live that fucking life again because it's fun
It's fun to have an alter ego
It's it's it's amazing that I say those things on stage on the podcast and people judge you
And they put you in a capsule. They don't know that you read a book to your daughter every night. They don't know that
You know, you save birds. I don't save birds. I'm just saying, you know, they don't know what you're really about
It's really funny when people are like, hey, what are you out doing drugs tonight? No, it's sunday night
I'm home watching winning time with the fucking lake is why would I want to be out tonight doing fucking drugs?
I got something, you know, it's it's just weird what people think of you what they assume your life is like
Like people always thought I had 20 people in the green room. I don't want 20 people in the fucking green
You think I want chicks back there naked. I'm a married fucking man. I like felicia. I like the mc
They both smoke whatever don't want to be in there. They better be able to fucking smoke one mc told me
I'm allergic to thc. Lucy. You ain't working this weekend
Because there's gonna be a lot of reefer in this fucking green room edibles and thc dust and you know
When it's a lifestyle guys and you got to get into it and you know what I missed it for a long time. I missed
I miss rocking and rolling. That's what I fucking mess guys. I was and I was scared
To rock and roll you have to be
You have to be today. Who's not gonna be there with a camera? Who's gonna fucking?
You know, are you gonna say a fucking some word and people gonna tape it and take you the fuck
Who the fuck knows but you know what you just gotta go out there and not give a fuck
It's like somebody telling you I don't want to go to
I don't want to go to jiu-jitsu because I might break a bone. I don't want to be a boxer
Because I might get brain damage if you think about that shit, then you're gonna get brain damage
You probably got brain damage already thinking that way
If you're gonna think that way, but you have to go up on stage going. I don't give a fuck
I don't give a fuck what they think and especially me now. I don't listen. I'm not going for no netflix special
I could care less if they like me or they don't fucking like me. I'm not going for no nothing
I am going for an audition for tom carvel tomorrow and you guys know i'm excited about that shit
I've lived to fuck. I live for carvel to have the opportunity. I'm gonna put the audition on tape
There's somebody on that movie that doesn't like me
I can't even tell you who it is
But last time I put an audition in for a movie that I took that the guy didn't like me
It was uh
grudge match
And then I realized the director was the one that sent in the fucking email for me
So you never know when you get those type of auditions at first I was like, oh this bitch is involved with this movie
You know, I go, you know what?
That means any audition is just a page and a half so I could learn that now and I could just blast it
I'll fucking read it first
Then I'll put the yellow on it to mark it and then I'll put my little things then I smoke a joint and revisit it
That's how you fucking nail an audition
I got my little list I read through the list and mark all this stuff. So the character has
a fucking history
And tomorrow morning like at 10 I have my wife set up the little camera pool
The teleprompter and I'll drop some fucking knowledge and hopefully I'll be tom carval. Listen the chances are slim
But fucking you got to go for it cock suckers. I preach this shit
You got to go for if you walk on ice you might as well dance and guess what it's all over
It's time for you to fucking go for it. That's it. Yeah, that's it's time for me to go for it guys
I've been sitting here long enough
Fucking going to softball games and meeting parents
It's time for me to go on the road and tell you motherfuckers what I really think and that's plain and fucking simple
Do not forget
It's sold out, but they might last some tickets loose. I'm on arie's story teller show next monday night
At the village underground new york city eight o'clock. I don't know what time i'm going up
I'm just going to go there tell a story and fucking come home smoke a joint and see the boys
Who's better than uncle joey? Nobody cocksuckers because now I got a taste of blood and i'm ready for these motherfuckers
Now without further ado the great rudy sozzo. I hope you enjoy this
joint
Welcome to the joint you savage
Look at me. I got some
I got some I got sunburn
I got everything last weekend
It must have been two thousand fucking degrees in jersey on the baseball field
Oh, man, what's going on my brother great to see you. So blessings blessing. I'm really blessed. It's all good
Life is good. No complaints. How's mom?
Oh, she's a man. What what a blessing to have her home with us and
It was uh, you know, rebecca. She she instigated the whole thing. That's that's my wife, you know
I mean for for the listeners
People watching this your but my wife's name is rebecca and she you know, she was kind of like, yeah
Let's get her home now because you know, we were
The way that period with coven, you know, that was kind of tough, you know
traveling and almost impossible and the risk and
And and she was living in miami by herself and she she didn't want to you know
Get the shots and be old by herself and something happened and so
As soon as we brought her here
to to los angeles, you know to live with us and
And that right off the plane to get her first vaccine for covet, you know
So it's so good. It's so good. It's a is it's like, uh, she's brought so much joy and and and blessings to our home and yeah
We're having fun
Actually, you know Rudy when you told me you were bringing your mom
You know, my sister died in cuba
Like a month and a half ago, maybe
So you couldn't really do anything. I couldn't really do anything. You know the situation I could call
Yeah
Yeah, and I took me four days to get a fucking calling card
I couldn't even get a calling card to call and uh, you know, it it was weird
But thinking I was sad and at the same time I was happy because now she's with my mother
Which is what my mother always wanted
Following couple weeks Rudy started fucking with me a little bit
I was watching uh, some show winning time the lake is on HBO
And his mother sends him off and I'm like, I never had that
Like I never had a mom sending you off to fucking colorado or la or
Before you go do a show or something and and you know
It was really weird because when my mother died I swept it under the carpet like I didn't deal with it immediately
I couldn't I was too young. I was involved with pussy and music and concerts or I didn't have a chance to really process it
So for some weird reason in my mind Rudy, I always thought
As crazy as it sounds that I would see her again
You know, and it didn't dawn on me
40 fucking years later that I'm not gonna fucking see it. This was just a pipe dream
I was saying to me. So if any of the listeners are fucking
The watchers whatever take one thing for granted when your mom or your dad dies your world
Sucks dick. I'm telling you from me even 40 years later. She never got to see my accomplishments
She never got to see that I could do this or I could do that
So you got to be good to your mom's and I'm not saying this because next month is mother's day or nothing
I'm saying this. This is general. You have to towards the end
You want to be there with them you want to I don't care if it's for that last month to bring them in your house
So they see what you're about and you you could see what they're about
But now I I respect I give you so much respect Rudy just for you being you
Now for bringing your mom into the mix, you know, 90 years old. This is it. These are your golden years
I mean, what are you fucking 65? This is it
This is the time you want to be with fucking mom and I know they're a pain in the ass
They don't hear and you know, but you gotta drive them to bingo
You gotta, you know, keep them involved. Take them out. Take them to a ball. Let them have a glass of wine
You know, mom did it for us
What shouldn't you do for your fucking mom? Tell me and I know
Oh, well, I go to therapy because of my mom because you're a fucking punk cuckucker
Because you're a punk cuckucker
Tony Soprano too, you don't go into psychiatry and tell him that your mom your mom is the goods and yeah
There's great moms. There's good moms and there's some that are bad, but every mom comes around
The same way a dad comes around. So I'm very proud of you Rudy and I I can't imagine
The fulfillment you must feel
Oh, yeah, I mean every night, uh, you know, she goes from our living room where we have dinner
And it's funny because I went when I every time I
Watch her in her favorite chair because you know, she's on a walker
So she's got to pick the furniture says that she feels comfortable sitting in so she found this chair in the living room
And that's kind of like her throne
We call it la reina
Because she was she was born the same day the same year as the Queen Elizabeth
So she's just celebrated her 96 just like the Queen did
And if you add on top of that my wife was born the same day same year as princess Diana
I don't know what that means, but that is a fact
So getting back to my mom sitting there. So we got her, you know, a really nice tv dinner tray
You know, so she sits there watching and this is our ritual every day we watch the family feud
And even though she's you know, because living in Miami, she really didn't have the need to learn English
Now she does and I mean, she's got a purpose now
Okay, I I learn English because I can talk to my daughter-in-law
My wife and my wife is doing the same thing. She's learning Spanish
And I'm like really impressed how fast she's picking everything up because she wants to now there's a purpose
There's a there's a person that speaks Spanish besides me in the house that she needs to communicate with
And and it's really so so so sweet to to walk in the room and my wife has
Uh an app on her phone and my mom has an app in the phone and they translate
They want to
It's a fucking it's a new adventure in your life on top of any other adventures now you're just
Doing your thing with quiet riot my apologies to you my my night got fucked up that night
There was a there was a sleepover. That's how I got clearance
The girls want to do a sleepover and that afternoon the guy
The dad who was going to watch him got called into work in new york because he's a
A sanitation like executive
So he got called and he called me he's like we're gonna cancel. I go, you know what you can't get my daughter wouldn't shut
The fuck up about it all week and the other kids
So I went over there sat with them till like fucking nine o'clock till the moms got home because the moms were going out
They didn't know what the right hand the left hand was doing
But i'll catch you on the way back either in pa. Oh, yeah
Jimmy said you were great. He sent me a video of the bass solo
Fucking rudy up there doing this thing looking like a fucking kid at the palladium 40 years back. Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, it's a it's weird because it's a state of mind, you know
And I during this covered
You know shut down and I say, you know what i'm just gonna like try to learn as much stuff as
interest special interest
And one of them was music. I mean it's like sometimes, you know, it's like
Did you ever question yourself like
What you do? Why do I do what I do? What's the minute? Yeah every goddamn day
You know, so so for me to be a musician and it's not you know, because growing up as a kid
I wanted to be a lot of things. I wanted to be a baseball player. I wanted to be a movie director, but
Once I got that
Card handed to me and say okay. This is the card. You're gonna play you're gonna be a musician. This is it
You know, these are the cards that you got. So, you know, this is your hand in life, you know, and I'm going like
You know, there's gotta be a reason this gotta be a purpose for me doing this
I mean, it's not just me getting up there and playing a bunch of songs
So this is even before I I got back with quiet riot, you know, prank. He was still alive, you know and all of that so
And
So I you know, I went on the internet started, you know, getting as much knowledge and information going to different websites saying, okay
I like this. I don't like that. I like this. I want to hear more and and one thing came to the other
So I just started basically it came down
To quantum physics with me
And what really attracts me about quantum physics is that first of all, I understand it
Not necessarily all of it but the essence of it, you know and to actually
watch
Scientists people who are way more educated than I will ever be in my life. I actually say yes
There is a higher power. There is the highest power
a creators
And it it the source and we are all a source of that and this is
This is stuff that they do in the lab
The experimenters and they find the smallest smallest smallest smallest quantity, you know, they go down to photons, you know, they go down into like
molecules and and they split them splitting of the atom
There's more into the I went to split the atom is split into different parts. It's more inside of it
And just like you go higher you can go
You know positive negative or it could be the same thing. That's really, you know
What device passes a negative is that middle line that neutral neutral, right?
And you go in either directions. You're going in the same thing. You're just getting more of the opposite, you know
and
And so I started studying it and to actually hear
Scientists these are people who are like they start out, you know debunking the existence of the higher power
and years ago what was popular was to think that
We live in a chaotic
Universe the whole thing. This is all by accident. No, this is not by accident
This is this is purely
There's a purpose and there's law
And there's the laws of nature the laws of the universe the laws of the creation of the creator and the fact
That what science is leaning towards is the fact that you me everybody else has ever existed
This is a hologram
What we experience
We're just making this thing up
And it's according to our consciousness our belief system that things turn
Into they manifest themselves
It's really crazy. I read about that
I read about that years ago. I had to smoke like 22 joints while I was reading
I can't remember the name of it
But it's that the images we see are only in our mind
Mike doesn't see the same images that I see
It's the same images molecules are bumping up against each other and you just don't see it
It's just a a thing of our mind. It's our own movie made from our mind our life. I guess
That's what they say it makes sense to me a little bit
The other half i'm fucked up on so i'm not a scientist
And i'm the fucking smart guy, you know what i'm saying, but it's uh
It's really weird but this pandemic made people think a lot, you know made people think a lot
Others have made them so scared that they refused to think
And they just kept going like a chicken went out of head on i'm seeing a lot of the results from that
I'm seeing the way the pandemic affected people mental health, you know mental health fucking through the roof
You see it people may not know they're experiencing it
They're trying harder. They're overcompensating
You know, there's been so many changes. We can't keep up with them. This has been a tough time for the country
And I tell you really I didn't know how bad the country the country
needed entertainment
Um, I just heard something yesterday where the stones had the number one tour of last year and they did like eight fucking shows
They did like 115 billion fucking dollars those guys
And every concert now this summer. I mean
The the concert is a fucking
Everybody's out from quiet riot to out and john to fucking everybody's doing a mystery tour
So it's like the hardest, you know
People are going to fucking shows man. That's what i'm trying to say people are going to comedy shows
People are going out because they never want to feel the way they did for those fucking two years again
So people are really over over compensating planes are packed
You know vacation packages are packed
I mean, we finally got a house the last week of august and fucking
North caroline i'm going down there with eight of the families and the kids and the boat and the fucking helicopter
I don't know how the fuck I gotta drive eight hours. I don't know how the fuck i'm gonna do it, but
We'll burn that bridge when we get to it, you know, how much longer do you have left on the tour routes?
Or this is open open ended open ended
It's as long as people keep showing up, you know, because you have
You have a you you may such a great point
That's saying that people want to be entertained
And I tell you what what, you know, I I heard you said that and what triggered in my mind was
You know, I just like you i'm also an entertainer. So
I I I I studied
uh
The meaning of what of what I do
To contribute to when people gather to come or see or show
What am I offering to them for their money and their time?
They made the effort to be there they're there. So now it's my responsibility
My responsibility to deliver
Whatever they came for and then some
Because once you're given that extra they keep coming for more
You know what I mean? You just don't say okay
You pay so much for a ticket. I'm going to give you a hundred dollars worth of entertainment for me
No, it's like you give them everything you got and then you try to find that extra bit and say here
Thank you so much
For coming here because I've been a fan longer than I've been a professional musician
So I I know all of the sacrifices that fans make
Like myself, you know trying to get together
$3 and 50 cents to go and see Led Zeppelin play at the
Sporatorium and in full order they'll you don't know that, you know and everything
It starts like a week before you prepare yourself and you listen to the music you get pumped up or your friends
You know, somehow you you've got a hold of a led zeppelin shirt somewhere in a in a
In one of the extors, you know, and and I'm talking this in the 60 and the 70s
So
Merchant ice was very very limited back then, you know, there was usually bootleg stuff, you know
And and then you make it to the show and it becomes a an unforgettable experience that i'm still talking about it with you
50 years later
It's crazy because
I charge 25 dollars for my tickets
30 on a friday and saturday even though the agent's like it's new york you could check no
30
I'm not when I do a podcast and you tell me you don't like the podcast
I don't give a fuck. It's an hour. We talk three hours. We talk. We try to communicate the best we can when you tell me
I did a role in the movie and you didn't like how I acted that's fine, too
I could tolerate that when you tell me you came to the comedy store to see me on a tuesday
And you say you didn't like my set I could deal with that the only thing I can't deal with is bombing on the road
I got a real
fucking thing
About people coming to see me and my performance on the road
You know, I tell people all the time when you're a gambler, you don't remember the big things you won
You remember the shit you lost, you know with with the musicians. You remember the bad shows, you know, you
Your base was off. Who the fuck knows your cat died
It's a thousand variables when you have four people
Putting a band together when you go to see a concert and that concert is tremendous
You got to thank your lucky stars because four people were on that night at the same fucking time
You were the Yankees that night
You were the Yankees, you know I'm saying some nights the singer's got a sore throat
His chick gave him bd. You know, he's not gonna go out there
And sling dick like usual for me when it came that's why I like the proportion. That's why
I didn't want to go on the road. I didn't want to be guns and roses every night
I think that you need just like when you need to recuperate from weights when you lift weights
They tell you not to lift weights more than four days a week. You got to recover. You got to recover also
So I always respected that because I knew the more spaghetti I threw on the wall the more chances I got to bomb
So during the week, I don't want to be out. I want to be at little comedy clubs trying new shit out
Because if I'm on a bomb, I'm on a bomb there. I don't want to bomb. I mean I looked at percentages
That's how crazy I took it down to
I took it down to percentages
I want to do great in nine out of ten shows. I want to do great in ten out of ten shows
But I know it's not a possibility. It's nothing to do with me. It could be the microphone
The sound coming it doesn't sound right, but for the most part it's on me
But I know I could give you
nine out of ten
I wanted to give you immaculate performances
Not just that I was good, you know, I want I want if you go I thought that motherfucker was going to have a heart attack
I did my job
Like I did if my face gets red like I did two weeks ago
And you know, it was the first time I was on stage in a year. So if my face gets red
I got a little anger issue to me that night
You're on top. You're winning. You got it. You know, that's what I want, but I always knew that to percentages
If I go out seven nights a week in a row
I'm going to bomb two of those nights
On five and I'm going to try to charge you big money. I rather charge you 20 bucks. You come to the store. You see 20 people
And if I bomb it's okay
I just want my percentages to be up on the weekend
Those four shows have to be tremendous and again
I know those five shows aren't going to be great. They're going to be four out of five when I do thursday and then two saturday
So I add one on thursday. That gives me six shows
And I'll bomb one of those shows out of the six not bomb
I don't bomb anymore. I just have a bad set. That's how I did my shit
percentages
I have so much respect for what you do because just to get up there on stage all by yourself not with a band
Now with a band not with three other four other guys, but just on your own you are the show
You know like if it not that I
That I can tell you that I ever phone it in but you know shit happens shit happens on the end of the road
You know and sometimes your equipment is not working or you know properly or whatever or you get the flu
I got the flu and I got on stage. I have to sit down middle of the show because I can't take it anymore
I sit on the drum ricer. I tell you what Duluth, minnesota 1988. Uh, yeah, not no actually
I tell you guys. Yeah, you know, so I I remember all this stuff, right? Okay, so
So what with me now
is that
It's it's it's a whole different level
I the purpose of me going on stage going on the road
Is to celebrate the legacy of quiet riot, you know this year 40th anniversary of
Recording mental health the album and I go, you know prior to that in 1978 with Randy Rhodes
We joined the band so next year is going to be 45 years
First time I played with quiet riot, you know and and my
And and and to celebrate the memory of frankie banally, kevin de bro and randy Rhodes. That's my mission
I step out that door
When I go on the road like I will got willing this friday step out the door and I now I know, you know, it's not about
Whoa, it's it's 430 in the morning. I gotta catch an uber to go to uh, the airport. No, no, it's now it's like wow
I get to do this
You know, I get to celebrate
I got a mission now. It's and for and some way some reason for me
It's I go in deeper
Deeper because it's like no, no, no, no, this is not just me getting up their own playing on stage anymore. This is this is about
The consciousness the consciousness that brought me to quiet riot in the 70s four guys
You know three of the guys well since there were you know, uh, kevin and randy and drew foresight
The drummer they were born and raised in in that area in the los angeles area me
I'm from cuba, you know, I made all the way down to LA
So I had some different, you know
Circumstances I was not living at home
I was not, you know, doing things in my my in my hometown
No, I was like the guy who was on survival mode all the time trying to like
Be able to stay in the band because I'm not gonna have to go back to
Miami or whatever or new jersey, you know, this this was it
I already done that about three times prior to 1978
I had left LA because I kept running out of money. So on this time that was the last time, you know
And so it was like all we were focused. We're gonna make it. We're gonna get a record deal
This is gonna be a great band because that's what I saw when I first saw quiet riot as a guy me walking into the starwood
I saw this band on stage and I got it
I said these guys they have the vision
They know where they're going and and if they keep going they will get there
And so then again about a year later, I'm in the band. So I understood that I knew what I was getting myself into and it was a collective
consciousness
You know that we had and that was 45 years ago
next year so it's 44 years this year and and
And it means everything to me, you know, I've heard of guys who like
You know, they have they have like their their favorite memories making music was in the garage because all of the guys
They were all about the same thing
We just you know, we're happy here in this garage. We're making music and nothing to do with anything outside of that
of that room
Right everything that would that would that they all
Live for existed there in a combination of four or five guys or girls, right?
and
that band
Broke up in 1979 that garage band and it was not a garage band because you know, we were playing around town and stuff like that
But it was basically that that that's what I mean is the belief system of a garage band
We're gonna make it right so then Randy goes off and join Ozzy later on I join Ozzy Randy dies and
And 10 years ago. I mean 40 years ago this year
I walk into a room to record one song as a tribute
To the memory of Randy Rhodes a song called Thunderbird that I used to play with Kevin Dubrow
While I was playing with him in his band Dubrow
Which is when choir riot broke up. That's what he put together and I was living with Kevin. So I was trying to subsidize my
My my expensive, you know that I was living with him when I was paying rent
so I would play with him and
I that's one of the songs that I played that's all I knew and so I went back in there with
You know to record just one song and that song led me
To leave Ozzy one of the biggest bands in the world and they were treating me fantastic
They were there were tremendous with me. They were generous and kind
And to leave that because I have lost my family when I my country my choir riot countries when I when Randy died
It wasn't there anymore
It wasn't you know, I mean if you look at the stage during while Randy was in in Ozzy and I was there
It was two guys from choir riot at each side of of Ozzy two guys that have been
a couple of years earlier
Tall that we were dinosaurs
That we were never going to make it by the Los Angeles record companies
And here we are playing with Ozzy and Randy had already recorded these two amazing
and composed records
Blizzard of Oz and diarrhea from Edmund. Here we are and I'm going I guess
And of all the things it is, you know, Randy and I
We came from from basically the same environment
You know, I grew up in the Caribbean grew a south Florida
Everything was the beach sunny
Same thing with with Randy. It was all about living in LA sunny LA, you know, you want to go to the beach
You just go down to the beach any month of the year
Whereas Ozzy was raised in the rubble of the Blitzkrieg
He was born like, you know, two or three years after World War two ended
And as a child as a baby, he was going through these lots in his neighborhood
That was just rubble from all the bombs being dropped by the Nazis, you know in Birmingham an industrial setting
I mean nowhere else could music like black Sabbath originated
That was it. That was the soundtrack of the city of that time
Black Sabbath music. So, you know, you have like different consciousness
Ozzy very dark. Then you have Randy me
Growing up and you know in sunny environments, you know, completely different. So once Randy was gone, it was all dark
That's all that's all I felt darkness not not that they are
You know, Ozzy Sharon or Tommy, whoever, you know, that we happen to be traveling together now that there are bad people or dark people
But that was the
The spirit this is where they where they came from
not necessarily Tommy because he came from
It was born in Texas and raised in art, you know, he lived in Arkansas
When he was playing with the with black oak and all of that but but definitely Ozzy Ozzy
Very very gloomy especially after Randy passed away, obviously, you know
You know, it's crazy
When I first contacted you a couple weeks ago, it was to do a podcast about
Randy 40 years later remembering something
And then fucking 10 days later, maybe five days later Taylor dies
I didn't call you for a few days and I'll tell you why because Taylor's death
Reminded me a lot of Randy's death
When I see Taylor Hawkins smiling, that's the last motherfucker. I thought was gonna die ever ever him and uh
Twinkle toes on the guitar. They're always smiling. They're the happiest people in the fucking world. Uh
The guy that does the really good barbecue. What's his name?
Yeah, they've grown they've grown this great
You know, Dave grows the happiest fucking guy in the world with he likes him a lot. So when
When Doug, you know, when he died I
I for a couple days, I mean and I didn't even come up a quiet, right? Uh
A foo fighter's tremendous fan. I'm just a fucking fan of them and I like what they do
But it felt like Randy
It felt a lot like Randy because it's the last
Thing I expected to hear I expected to hear, you know
That Ronnie whatever died in jail. He's getting old. What's what's the fucking porno guy that's getting charged with 78 rapes?
You know, I expected to you know, somebody to break their leg, but I never saw
Taylor Hawkins dying. I saw Taylor Hawkins
Maybe having an accident and breaking his ankle like, uh, you know the singer from guns and roses and he has to perform
on a stilt of some shit
But I don't I I never when I got when I listen, bro
I when I walked out of that house on a Friday night
And I got in my buddy's car in april
And also he goes, you hear what happened Randy Rhodes died. I was done. I didn't know the man
I didn't need to know the man
But I was done for a few days that added that just woke up
The pain that my mother left three years earlier when she died
That put me right back there again. That's what happens when somebody dies when somebody close to me dies
It wakes up a sleeping fucking giant for a few days. The same thing happens with Taylor
You know, I could see if I was like a big Taylor
I mean, I was a fan of his I remember him with a not Alanis Morissette, but
I he was the last guy like Randy
What was Randy 20 years old or something like that the last
26, yeah
26 he's a fucking baby guitar
He was about to take over the world with that fucking guitar
Or him and fucking Eddie were gonna have a blast like russia and ukraine
They were just gonna throw guitars at each other. They were just tremendous and
One day they just disappeared and that was it
So when you talk about that like the Taylor thing, I wanted to bring it up to you because that's what it felt like
And I know to you it didn't feel like it. I'm not trying to
You know, I know I know you were tight with Taylor and I know you're the type of guy
That's very empathetic
But Randy was Randy to you and Taylor's Taylor, but it's still a death
It should affect you. You should have a reaction to it
Absolutely. I posted immediately
Based on my experience with Taylor. I never
Saw him high and we were in events where other people were high
You know public events part, you know, like events, you know, like celebration like, you know
Not just at people's home doing. I mean, you know, we went to a couple things for example
One of them was uh, Sebastian Bach
He throws a birthday party and there was a bunch of people there and then there's Taylor and he's
And he was a some some sort of a disco theme and he's wearing disco clothes
And he's just like I don't even think I saw him drinking
You know, he's just hanging and and I will jam with him
Uh, he had this side projects
And never I never saw him high
High on anything, you know, so
So what I did see was somebody that was incredibly driven every time I see his footage of of him performing and doing his tribute to Freddie Mercury
at Wimbledon Stadium
And all of that I see man this this this man is very special plus
I used to I I'm really good friends and I play with sas jordan
And sas jordan is who discovered
Taylor playing in a club in in south southern california
It's locally from this area and then from sas jordan's band. I mean, you know, you guys can watch
You know on youtube him playing with sas jordan
and
Then that's when sas took a break
As she tells me
And and alinas morris said who somehow they share some some sort of either management or label or anything like that
She needed a band to promote her new record
Jag a little pill and that's where
Taylor joined the band because they basically took sas's band and they put it together and it's easier to do that, you know
and
So, yeah, I mean she spent a lot of time with Taylor and there was never ever any
Any conversation regarding addiction or or drunk, you know
Being an alcoholic or anything like that nothing, you know
So it's quiet right gonna put out an out
We're working on it. We're working on it and it says coming along beautifully. Uh, yeah, I'm very very uh
Very pleased, you know, I mean
I will be completely pleased once it's done because right now when you're in the process you really
Don't get to enjoy it as much as once it's done once it's done. It's like, okay
Let me hear it now and it's like hearing it for the first time
Because you know, you have to you have to wear one hat one hat is the creator and then
The the next hat is the spectator. You're watching this and you listen to you go. Wow. That's really cool and you're kind of like
I can do this. I don't know if if everybody can do this, but I can actually separate myself from my creative self
to my
spectator
Once, you know watching or listening to me perform, you know, and then it can be critical about it
That's uh
I'm fucking really happy for you Rudy. You look great
I know that this is a
What did you call it a
Fuck a passion of a project of joy, right? What? Yeah admission admission admission of joy
You know, are you doing a lot of the writing you got other guys in the band?
That I oh, yeah, I mean
Everybody contributes, you know, it's really a band band effort
You're all out in LA
No, no, we're not but we are mastering
The technique of doing everything up because you know, we get together on when we when we tour
And then when we create
When we get creative see when you're on tour, you basically the way it's done now
You know with the schedule you gotta get up at four o'clock in the morning to be in the lobby to catch a flight
You know and hold your hands, please pray to god that it that you don't get delayed
Or or it doesn't get cancelled. So you can make it to the next gig
You know, so you're more focused on that not not necessarily on the creative aspect of it
But more on the survival mode of surviving this experience so you can get to the next
The next gig and do it all over again, you know
And so once once once we come home
I can actually put that creative hat on and I'm um, I'm I'm very happy
I'm very very pleased with uh with the ways things are are shaping up
You're a fucking animal Rudy and you're an inspiration
A lot
Professional from being around you
