Great to be back. We brought back the music. We're on new stream, Lee. Tell them what to do to block the fucking ads right now. Let's do this. It's called Ad Block Plus, just Google Ad Block Plus. And if you follow me on Twitter, at least I did, tweeted a link to it.
Starting point is 00:02:20 And from what I've heard, if you install that in your browser, and it works on your phone too, I think, it'll take away the ads that you stream plays live. I am going to try to put this on YouTube if it gets pulled down, it gets pulled down, but we're also going to create a Vimeo account. There you go, motherfucker. It'll be somewhere, and the videos are also always live on you stream. It gets pulled off of YouTube, and it's not on you on Vimeo yet. It is always on you stream, on this page.

You're beautiful, Lee Sayang. Give me all the information. He's on top of shit flying you. What are you fucking nuts? I have like 20 minutes left of that, so ask any questions you want now after that. At least ready to blast off to another dimension.
Starting point is 00:03:05 Fuck yeah. That hash is crazy. Dog, I'm telling you, I'm breaking out hash back out. Bring it back. We're going to cut a little weed down. Okay. We're going to smoke a little bit more hash out of the glass. I'm going to get a wooden pipe.
Starting point is 00:03:17 We're going to old school this. I have friends that have great fucking hash. And again, I was forgetting, I was sprinkling it on marijuana, and it's really like, it's like putting bacon on a fucking good cheeseburger sometime. I thought you didn't like bacon and cheeseburgers. No, I don't. That's what I'm saying. It's like a hypochondrium.
Starting point is 00:03:36 You call that shit when you put two of the same things on the same fucking thing? Yeah, yeah. So it's like vodka and red bull. Yeah. You know, like it just, but it got hip. Right. If you really think about it, one side mellows you on, the other side keeps you fucking awake. Speedball.
Starting point is 00:03:51 Yeah, but it's like a Puerto Rican speedball. There's no speedball involved. That's a three minutes. Yeah. You're looking at the bro going, my dick is ready to rock. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. If that's a real speedball, your dick is deader than disco.
Starting point is 00:04:02 No fuck. Yeah, that thing is gone. Gone. Yeah. What's going on? Dean Delray. Man, I am so happy to be here. It's all, it's my favorite come down here, your new studio.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Let me tell you something. I do all my podcasts at my house and it's like a rock museum, but I moved to a new place and it's not set up yet. So I come in here and it's just got this vibe. You know, I just love it. And you know what? I loved about it. When we were in here, we're playing some music records.
Starting point is 00:04:30 They reminded me of just being in a buddy's room with the bong out and his mom would be in the other, in the living room watching soaps. You know, we're in there just listening to Boston with the black light posters and the weed and the fucking, I'm just rock talk, you know, like listen to that lead, you know? This reminds me of that. Do you guys have cool rooms as kids? Like I had, my mom was so, I was like, she was stricken. I was just a vanilla kid.
Starting point is 00:04:56 So it never, I never really decorated it, but like having a bong or some black lights or some vinyl post, like that must have been fun. I had all the kiss posters and that David Lee Roth one where he's tied up on a chain. For women and children first. Yeah, that one boy, that one hung up there. And the kiss one where they're dressed as army guy, you know, with the drums and the battle wounds, the U.S. Army, all those, man. People don't know about.
Starting point is 00:05:25 So my mom bought the home in North Bergen. It was a three bedroom home, but the problem was one of the bedrooms was a converted attic. Yeah. That to any of us, we would jerk off all over it. Yeah. I didn't like it. It scared me. I heard mice up there.
Starting point is 00:05:38 Oh yeah. Addicts are fucking scary. So I would go down to this one in the bedroom. There was a bedroom with a, my mom's bedroom was a master bedroom. I had the bidet, the shower, the tub, the shitter, the window, the whole fucking thing. And then I had a bathroom in the hallway, but the bedroom I moved into whoever had the house before it was a girl's room. Pink carpet, mirrors everywhere.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Barbie room. You know how many times people walked in my room and walked into the mirror? Oh. Because that mirror was, it looked like a huge room. You kept the pink carpet? I kept the pink carpet. I put like a little wolf on the floor, like this dead wolf that was like a fluffy wolf. Somebody gave me like a fur.
Starting point is 00:06:21 And I put like, I had the stereo with the speakers who I robbed from the kid across the street. But then I became friends with him and he wasn't allowed in my upstairs. Like he would come to the living room. Let's go upstairs and listen to music. No, we can't go upstairs. My mom don't let boys in my room. You got the speakers up there? I had the speakers and the stereo up there.
Starting point is 00:06:37 I had like a, I had a Jimmy. I had a Led Zeppelin poster that Ray Canella, the guy who calls in here for the podcast. I called a couple of weeks ago. He had, and it was Led Zeppelin on stage, but it was shot backwards. Oh yeah, reverse. Left hand. The word on the street was that it was a collector's item and all this shit. I had a picture of Julia serving.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Oh, Dr. J. That long one on the door. I remember that one. That long one. There's this converse right there. There's Rick, Dr. J. And he was still playing. He played for the Sixers, but at that time they didn't pay the Sixers.
Starting point is 00:07:12 So it was like a generic costume. But he had to wear it. Like they took the Sixers off it for the poster. For the poster. Hilarious. And then I had the McDonald's All-American basketball team. And I just, on the floor next to this thing, I had the stack albums. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:27 And you know what album I still had in there? I still remember having The Beach Boys. Oh yeah. Which one? Round, round, get around. I get around. What were the hits? Right around that one.
Starting point is 00:07:39 I still remember some of my first 20 fucking albums. Yeah. Like five or six albums were very confusing albums. I was still in the Gramps. I totally enjoyed it. There was somebody, me and Steve Simone. You know, Richard Pry was basically the first album I bought. Right.
Starting point is 00:07:56 Like I don't know if it's something I said or the nigga's crazy. Right. But when he sees it, he sees Jesus. I knew Jesus. I met him on the railroad depot. I told him, don't go down there and mess with them Jews without no money. You know, I forgot all about that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:10 I didn't shit. That one in Bicentennial nigga. Oh yeah. And I had them hidden. Yeah. Oh yeah. Because they had to be hidden. And then I had, I remember having the Beatles white album.
Starting point is 00:08:19 I had the Beatles help. Yeah. And uh, okay. I was like a Michael Jackson dude. Yeah. Yeah. So I had the last two Jackson albums moving violation and the best of Michael Jackson who Miss Pat argued with me that that album didn't exist.
Starting point is 00:08:38 The one with like the bird on the cover? He still has the nose. He still has the black nose. That's a great fucking greatest hit album. Yeah. I still remember all these albums. That room was uh, and I was telling Lee that what I would do is at night I'd play records in my fucking bedroom.
Starting point is 00:08:55 But in the daytime, I had a little window. I could play them on my mom's living room stereo. Yeah. We just kick ass. It was one of those old school box of controllers with the, oh yeah, turntable, the control on the other side of the TV in the middle. Yeah. Like it's, it's like an all one piece fucking furniture.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Yes. Guys, one fucking piece of furniture like this table. Yeah. This how long it was? Yeah. Are you serious? So it went from here to there. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:21 And it went against the wall. So on that side was the turntable. Yep. On this side was the control for the radio also. Yeah. The turntable and a track player. And then the TV was in the middle where that thing is that Kevin put on there. I guarantee those things still work.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Oh yeah. Those things will work to the fucking end of the time. And I know people who have them. I guarantee if you go on eBay, you know, garage sales, they're out there and you're absolutely right. You put a needle from today on there and it's brand new, brand fucking new. Yeah. You know, I saw a guy, Joey, he did something that was so amazing.
Starting point is 00:09:57 He bought one of those and he gutted it out and then he put high end stuff in there. So when you looked at it, it was straight seventies, but then when you opened it up, it was just all this great equipment. Now it was awesome, man. Like just rebuilt the insides with new shit. It was killer. Jesus, I just remembered something that's so sad and it was so sad to me for a long time talking about turntables.
Starting point is 00:10:23 So the kid's name was Renee. Renee was Puerto Rican. And when he was moving into the building, when he was moving into the apartment, the house, he went to pick up more stuff and wherever they were moving from and we robbed the house in mid, in mid move. So Renee and his dad and the mother moved out of there. They were like running from credit creditors and stuff. But for some reason the stereo was fucking weird.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Like the stereo was just old to me. Like I was like, I don't want to stare at them. I need some hip to get the chicks up here to be the cool guy on the block. On the corner was this place on four or five corners. It's still there on appliance place. And the word on the street was you go in there and get a fish or stereo. I think your hands on something. No, my hands.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Oh, that's... Oh, it's over there. Okay. I'm not worried about it. Which in the day, a fish or stereo, it was like fucking tremendous. This was before Blaupunk. People started saying, oh, you have a fish or I have a Blaupunk. I buy components, man.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Because everybody got real cool after a while. Component. What happened was, and this is why I don't like a cell phone with a camera and all this shit on it. Because once the camera breaks, you got no phone for some people. They can't live without a fucking camera on the phone. I come old school. Okay. I come from the thing that once your A-track broke, the whole stereo had to get thrown out.
Starting point is 00:11:47 Because it was connected to the fucking CD and the cassette player. So here you were with 90 fucking A-tracks. What the fuck are you going to do now? The A-track is broken. Okay. Now I got to buy albums. I got the Almond Brothers live from the Philmore East on A-track and now I got to buy fucking albums. So I said, enough is enough.
Starting point is 00:12:04 So I went down to fucking fishing, whatever they called, and you gave them 50 bucks down. And the whole thing came out to like 480. In those days, Lee, 480 hours for a 13-year-old kid, 14-year-old kid. It was like a thousand bucks, 1200 bucks, 13, 1500 bucks. Yeah. For a stereo too. It's not like it's for something for school. And I went and I financed it.
Starting point is 00:12:29 And when I hit the number, I paid it all off. Wait, they let a 12-year-old kid finance something? My mom cosigned it. Oh, okay. My mom had a cosign. Your mom has to cosign shit. But at least you made payments. They gave you a payment book?
Starting point is 00:12:41 They gave you a payment book? Yeah. And you had to walk down there every Friday and pay the $15 like a man? You know, and you felt good. Like this was my fucking stereo, man. Like this was it. Like I took care of this. I dusted it.
Starting point is 00:12:53 I cleaned the needle. Like this was fucking it, you know. And when my mom died, I never took that stereo. Oh. But that stereo sat in that fucking room. God knows what that stereo is today. It broke my heart cos I had a tank. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:13:06 Yeah. You know when you have it tuned for you, like you buy a turntable after a year or two, the turntable gets to see your style and how you drop the record and you learn and you get the needle right. And it was a sad thing in my life for like three years not having that turntable. Well, you know, my best friend, they had the Marantz and I told Marin this story and it was basically the blue collar Macintosh. Like Macintosh was so much money, but the Marantz and my buddy's dad bought it and he had the
Starting point is 00:13:43 Marantz 2275 and a turntable, a pioneer turntable and these speakers and we'd put a highway to hell on it. And a couple years back, I bought a Marantz 2275 and it's in my house and I always tell people, they go, what sounds good? And I go, whatever your ears grew up on. Like, you know, because your ears grew up on a sound and that's the sound your brain remembers forever. And I hooked this whole thing up and I put on, you know, a record.
Starting point is 00:14:15 I was like, that's, that's it. That's eighth grade right there. Marantz. Yeah, man. And they had the blue lighting and and the in the Marantz had the weighted wheel for the tuner. You just hit it. It would go, you know, on a ball bearing and that was like pro.
Starting point is 00:14:32 The other ones you had to turn and they're all funky. This one just hit the book, the wheel. And I just, and man, I got it now in my house. We had to describe it. It is. We had to describe it. It is. You know, I became nerdish about it, but I was even buying magazines.
Starting point is 00:14:48 You know me a long time ago. I don't buy magazines. Yeah. I was buying stereo magazine. High five mags. It's funny. I was watching vinyl the other night on HBO. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:57 How is it? Vinyl is an interesting show. Okay. It's interesting show. This week they had like a Slime the Family Stone type. Motherfine. I saw the picture. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:09 You know, if you like music and you like doing blow, you know, and all that craziness, this is the show for you. You know, it's just, I watch it and sometimes I go, what the fuck am I watching? Yeah. But it's entertaining. You know, it's entertaining to a moron like me because it's me. It's my time. I was a kid.
Starting point is 00:15:27 All that. Last week they sang a song on that two weeks ago that killed me to check that fucking ice to self with the pills, with the brother. Amy Winehouse? No. Amy Winehouse. This is the fucking, they started. How old are you?
Starting point is 00:15:42 I'm sorry. Oh. Oh. So they're doing real bands. It's like, like stories of real stuff going on. It's really weird. Like the first episode is him going into having to talk to Led Zeppelin and Peter Grant is yelling on him and his, he's selling the record label to the Germans.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Yeah. And then what the second episode, the Germans in the room and Peter Grant walks in and he goes, just like, you know, I'm not selling. I'm not. I'm leaving you guys. I'm not going to be in. I'm not working with Germans. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:11 Wow. I don't work with fucking Germans. They got a guy playing Peter Grant. Yeah. But he's not really six foot six. 300. Yeah. He's a little short and he talks a lot.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Yeah. He tries to redo that scene from. Oh. From. Yeah. You know the man's out there with the posters. Yeah. He's out there selling posters.
Starting point is 00:16:28 Yeah. He's out there. He's out there. He's out there. He's out there. He's out there selling posters. That scene. That's great.
Starting point is 00:16:36 And that's, you know, it's, somebody asked me how that scam worked. Yeah. You know, in the seventies, this is the most interesting thing I ever read in my life. I had these FBI files from the seventies. When I was on the road in the early 98s and 99, I had an FBI buddy. Yeah. Who gave me these files because I told him that they were doing a lot of mafia movies and he goes, take these and do the research.
Starting point is 00:16:59 And I came in with a guy's name. Okay. You know, he was a businessman. Yeah. You know, he was the business end of it. No flash. No nothing. But, uh, he was a Gambino captain that reported straight to Castellano.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Like he didn't talk to nobody. Like, that's how much money he was robbing. Okay. When you're robbing that type of money, but his cover was, you know, he was a businessman. Yeah. He was a businessman. Yeah. He was a businessman.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Yeah. He was a businessman. Yeah. He was a businessman. But his cover was he was on the board of directors of a supermarket chain in New York. And what they would basically do is, let's say there was 90 of these supermarkets all over New York and the five boroughs in Connecticut, Lee, they went to each supermarket and built an aisle.
Starting point is 00:17:50 I told you about this. They built an aisle like in the express line. Yeah. And that went right to them. Wow. Years later, a general manager goes, every store in the country has 10 aisles. Every store here has 11. Why is that?
Starting point is 00:18:09 So the 10 registers they were giving, but the one register was going right to this guy. That's the payoff. He had 90 stores going. An entire register. Can you imagine when he got like Thanksgiving to life? It was 3000 a day. There's 90 of them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Yeah. Let's say you paid 300 for somebody to make them move and pay you that money every fucking day. What do you care to fuck? Yeah. Fuck yeah. So what they were doing in the garden was the mob was. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Yeah. Led Zeppelin had their people. But was Peter Grant going to walk on every floor of the garden and everything? Right. So they would just put up stands. Yeah. Yeah. In the garden?
Starting point is 00:18:51 Yeah. Because they still have that now. Like whenever I go to a game or a concert, they have people with bootleg t-shirts outside. Yeah. So imagine them inside the venue. Yeah. But this was the mob itself at the garden. This was the union.
Starting point is 00:19:02 It's all union. It's all union. The green coats. So the union would say, Lee, give me a favor, give me a listen. I'm going to give you 20 t-shirts. Sell them for 10 bucks. You get $3 a t-shirt. What do you give them for?
Starting point is 00:19:14 Yeah. Sell them until somebody comes and gets you. Yeah. Sell them. Who gives a fuck? Look at that table. Like in like when you're walking around. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:25 Well, back then. In there. They had them in there. In the fuck. Never mind outside. That was a completely different operation. Yeah. That's somebody else.
Starting point is 00:19:33 This is the one inside. This is the one inside. Inside like the actual like what? Yeah. So finally, you know, Led Zeppelin would do five nights at the garden. Finally, after the third night, you would go up to Lee and go Lee. Who's the fat Italian looking guy? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:46 With the stand, with programs and fucking t-shirts. He's got our guy. He's not one of us. Yeah. Oh my God. So let's say I cut a deal with Peter Grant and said, well, listen, we're going to have one concession stand and that 30% goes to the garden. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:03 I told them about three. I'm going to have 15 of them. Yeah. And the band wouldn't know the band's busy playing. Yeah. And also they didn't have big entourage. There'd be like six guys working with them. You know, they're not combing the whole place.
Starting point is 00:20:17 So that was just another way. So that's the scene. And the song means the same that we're talking about at Peter Grant is going off on the union guys going and nobody knows what the fuck is going on. It's all stolen. It's amazing how smart criminals are fucking opening up a bootleg stand. It like it's amazing that they could even think. Who would fucking think to question it?
Starting point is 00:20:41 Imagine how much they were making on stuff like, um, like the Ringling Brothers, uh, everything. Yeah. All the events. Yeah. Until you get caught. Did they do like the Knicks too? Every event.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Until you get caught. No. Well, the Knicks are theirs. Yeah. Yeah. That's the Knicks are in-house. They're not going to rob themselves. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:21:02 You know what I'm saying? They're going to rob the least events that come in. The touring events. Like my wife works at the Hollywood Bowl. They book it. And then there's a promoter who books 50 of them. They can't get your tickets. They got nothing to do with that.
Starting point is 00:21:11 They got a check. Yeah. They negotiate a friend fee and they sell t-shirts and sodas and beers. And they keep that. But the rest goes to the fucking dude. Fuck. Awesome. How many of these scams are just in everyday businesses that we're like unaware of?
Starting point is 00:21:29 Well, I'll tell you what, this is something crazy, man. I go to the Wheel Turn a lot and it's over in, uh, over there in Koreatown. Bless you. And these guys, these bootlegger guys, they don't even, they're not even afraid anymore. It used to be they'd be like five blocks away. They're right at the front door when you come out now. And I'm like, what's going on? Like these guys don't get arrested.
Starting point is 00:21:55 There's cops everywhere and everything. And they're just like, nah, they, they pay someone off. You know what I mean? Well, like I said, they'll sell. Excuse me. I'm very sorry. I got allergies. They're very, they keep doing until they get caught.
Starting point is 00:22:09 So let's say Ringling Brothers and Bonham Bailey, they do a three fucking night stand at the garden. Yeah. Okay. And I'm sure the same thing is not at the Boston garden. Don't think that they're fucking immune to shit either. Of course. Everywhere. You know, everywhere.
Starting point is 00:22:25 You know, uh, when the fucking team comes to play at the Boston, uh, the garden. The baseball place. Fenway. Oh yeah, Fenway. They only have six guys selling white sock stuff, but they got three guys selling white stock stuff and that goes in their fucking pocket. And you'd be surprised. Yeah. You'd be surprised how much little theft there is.
Starting point is 00:22:48 That to you and me, it's little, but at the end of the year, it's monumental. And I forget what company it was, but I read a, I read a story a while ago that somehow there's one guy figured out that if they put one less olive in an, in the, every jar, it would save them millions of dollars a year. So they just started putting in one. Cause no one's going to say anything about counting. You know, if it says 29 piece, you're not counting. Can't even remember. You whipped out some olives to, to, you know, for some martinis, you know, go, Hey, we, we got robbed on one.
Starting point is 00:23:25 Even if he does, you go, Oh, we're missing one. Who cares? And then there's scams. Like I would guarantee, I don't know the percentage, but I would guarantee a very large portion of Apple's entire revenue is iTunes money. Yeah. It has to be there. All they're doing is selling the music and their computer store. And, and then fucking airlines, how many billions of dollars are they making on baggage fees?
Starting point is 00:23:47 Just baggage fees, not even tickets. So let's say there's a stewardess, there's a clerk. Okay. That she's found it figured out a way to type in numbers so that you don't have to pay for baggage fees, but she still charges you. Yeah. I'm sure everything is very computerized now, but there's always a genius. There is. People always find the floor.
Starting point is 00:24:12 And it's not even geniuses. Like there's something, when I worked at TVS, there was a button called like non-taxable and you could just put in a price. If I was a thief, I could just put everything as one cent and then take the cash. If I knew what the price was, because after a while, if someone buys a soda and you figure out what tax it's 204, whatever, you can, you need something bigger than that, obviously. But you can figure out the prices and just charge them whatever. I told you when Michael Dell was here that I worked at the car wash. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:40 And I remember like going home and going, I got robbing these guys legitimately for $6,000 a month. That's just me taking from them. What about the partner I got? Yeah. They're going to be robbing for $6,000. That's $12,000 a month. They're going to be off a buck 30 next year. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:58 And they're going to go, what the fuck is happening? Or not. Or not, yeah. Or not because maybe we weren't the only people robbing. I knew we weren't the only people robbing there. There was a guy right on the back that was robbing the blind. A black guy and his brother that were detainers. They were detailing 10 cars and saying they only had three.
Starting point is 00:25:16 Yeah. You know, and they take that six off the top. Anytime there's cash transactions and it's like piece work, like detailing and, and, you know, What about when you park your car? Yeah. The car parkers, all that kind of stuff. You figure out you could take 100 a night right off the top.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Yep. Okay. The other day I went to wash my car. It was funny because I had a bunch of chains in the middle and when I got back in the change was still there. And I was like, you know what? He could take a quarter from every car. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Right. How do I know? Cause I used to do that. Right. I used to work in certain, I used to be a car salesman in Manhattan when I was doing comedy in 93. There was nights I didn't have money to go home. I would go into service and go through the fucking cars.
Starting point is 00:26:03 Yeah. Get some change. And find fucking books. I would find tokens to get over the bridge and those books to fucking with $4 books. Yeah. And I would go right to the bridge and sell them to somebody. Hey, there's 10 of them. That's 40 bucks.
Starting point is 00:26:17 20, 20. Yeah. Boom. Yeah. There's dudes in the Bay Area, Bart, you know, the subway there. And whenever you roll up, man, there's guys that have some kind of bootleg cards and stuff. And they're like, Hey, over here, man, just give me a dollar and I'll give you a round trip, which is like $9, you know, this year they got like slider cards and, and those
Starting point is 00:26:40 other guys that are running with the fake cards for the gas pumps and stuff, you know, they sell them to truckers and then they're like just filling up their trucks till the cards burn up, you know. What about the people? I saw this vice video about like the heroin addicts in England are going and stealing meat from all the grocery stores and selling it bootleg black market just door to door. How crazy? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:08 Why not? It's like the copper guys robbing those houses for all the copper copper. I did all that shit. So I, I, I, I understand. I get what it is to steal a steak from a supermilder than snow mass village. I would go in there every night and I had a lettuce and a Oscar Maya salami thing. Yeah. But I would steal a $10 fucking steak in my backpack.
Starting point is 00:27:31 I did it every night. Yeah. And you know, it adds up. I feel guilty for doing it today, but I did it. It's a fucking truth. And I was doing below and I wasn't doing below those nights. I just knew I could steal a steak for free. And some nights I got cocky.
Starting point is 00:27:45 I stole two steaks. Yeah. And some nights I stole two steaks on the lobster tail for Jimmy Burkle. That's how crazy I got in there. I, I get all this shit and now in hindsight, you feel kind of bad in the way that I did these things. Yeah. When I worked at the rental lumber.
Starting point is 00:27:59 Oh my God. When I was 15, 16, 17, I went to the lumberyard. Team Delray, what I did to these people was brutal. It was brutal. I think back today, I paid for all those things, brutal. It wasn't just, it was 2,000 a week in lumber I was stealing from them. You know, the sheets of plywood were 40 bucks, 80 bucks. I'm getting 25 a sheet, give me 25 cash.
Starting point is 00:28:22 People coming and getting 20 sheets from me on a Saturday. You know, fucking installation, no, no, no, no, this, what's this shit called Tylen? Oh yeah. What they put on the walls. Yeah. No, the other one. Oh, I won't? No, the shit that's designed.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Oh, like the fucking linoleum and stuff. That's the kind of stuff on the walls. Yeah. I used to sell the four by eights, people coming and going, don't know. The last guy that was here would charge me 30 a sheet, fucking right back here, let's cut the fucking deal. You know, that guy would come back there and go, I only made 20,000 today. Every business is fucking empty.
Starting point is 00:28:56 We used to have plywood that was galvanized so we could put it on boats. Marine plywood, it's called. Those were double the money. I would sell those for a fucking all the dough. People would just back up their fucking trucks. And I'd just go back there and help them load it up. They'd give me cash. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:13 See you later, fucking bye. I remember I used to have a gas key and fucking a guy gave me a gas key and this is when gas went up to like a dollar, five people, I go, shit, it's a dollar. The old pumps before their computer, they're just that remember those and then, you know, when you put the pump away, it turns it off and it couldn't start again until the guy came over with a key and turned it and then it would reset and you could pump gas. So we would, one guy would just distract the dude working at the station and then you'd pump and then when he wasn't looking, you turn the key and pump again, turn the key
Starting point is 00:29:54 and then you'd go up and you go, all right, five bucks, but you had already filled up like 25, you know, whatever, because you could just turn it and reset it. I had the key forever, man. It's just people be like, you got that key, let me borrow it, you know, you'd have to distract the dude. One guy was a two man team. It's so crazy what the amount of theft, you know, when people go to work, you know, you are, whatever, and on your company time, you go on the computer and you're looking at
Starting point is 00:30:24 pulling on, wiping off in your cubicle. That's theft, right? Yeah. You know, all those simple things are fucking theft, you know, and they add up, they fucking add up, you know, corporations are thieves. I mean, I don't feel bad for them. They rob everybody, American Airlines, all those motherfuckers. You know, when you call American Airlines, you're talking to some poor fucking
Starting point is 00:30:43 black chick who got beat up last night and they got her in there for the small 40 with no benefits, booking people to Jamaican shit. Me was, this chick hasn't gone out of the hood a whole fucking life. You know, I'm only teasing you, but, you know, when I robbed, when I was a kid and I robbed in those businesses, okay, like Lee, Lee goes, criminals are smart. This fucking guy I worked for when I was 18, you rang up the fucking receipts and at the end of the night, you zed out, you closed the register, you counted the money, you counted your bank out, you counted, it was $1800 and you counted 1860.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Well, you made 60 bucks extra. That one in your pocket, you put 1800 in the envelope, you put the fucking receipt in there and you licked it and you put it in the fucking refrigerator and you put the date on it. That was it. Tipped 60. I took the fucking tip money. That was mine.
Starting point is 00:31:38 Whatever I made over on the register was mine and it was that simple. Well, one man, I'm doing blow in the city and I'm like, where can I get some money? Wait a second. I got the key to the bar. I just go over there and steal on those envelopes. So at first I stole like two of them. It was like the fucking Puerto Rican that I am. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:56 And then they said something to all the bartenders. Somebody's stealing envelopes when they get to the bottom of this. So I figured out a different way to do it. I just went and saw the envelope she used and I went and bought boxes of those envelopes and I would go in there at night, open up their envelope, take the new envelope, put it in there and take a hundred off the top. So whoever closed the night before we show the yardstick, fucking cruelty. You know, who would think of that disgusting stuff?
Starting point is 00:32:23 I would get drug drugs. That's what drugs make each other buy. How to score fucking money. Absolutely. Drugs make you think like that. Cause you're like, man, this coat back then was, it was 350 in April. You know, it was, it was 25 a quarter gram. There was no breakdowns unless you bought like an ounce, you know, it was like 25,
Starting point is 00:32:44 50, 75, a hundred, a hundred a gram, 350 for an April, three and a half grams. So, I mean, that's a lot of fucking money in the seventies and eighties. You're like, where am I going to get that money? You know, do you think how much of it was it? Just you are a good worker, good, like have a good work ethic and how much of it was all those years of drug stuff? Just you really well, you trained in hustling and now you're just pointing it towards like actual business.
Starting point is 00:33:15 It was a little bit of both. My mom had me working at an early age, but even then like an early age, I knew how to flip things. Yeah, me too. Like I was doing creepy things and like eight, nine, you know, like buying glue for sticky Charlie and tried them 25 cents more, even though he was a junkie. You know, I tried the fucking, that's not a lie. I have a story.
Starting point is 00:33:37 That's a true fucking story. I tried to sell this gig. Let's say glue was a quarter or two. I told him 50 fucking cents and try to shake them down. And most days I got this fucking loser to give me a 50 fucking cents. You know, we did shit like that. Ah, I remember we sold bubble young. They did when bubble young first came out, it was unheard of and this one
Starting point is 00:33:59 store sold it miles away and we'd ride our bike up there on Sunday and we'd buy like 10 packs for, it was a quarter. And then we'd sell pieces at school a quarter of peace because no one's seen bubble young. That shit was next level square, big pieces, unbelievable flavor of delicious. Oh, and then it was like a quarter of a piece. We're making money hand over fit. And then for a while, bubble young went off the market because it said it had
Starting point is 00:34:26 like red dye number five in it or something. And it was gone for like a year. It was like, bubble young is gone. What the fuck happened? And then it came back and by then it was in every store. But back in the day, this one market had it. It was like a Chinese market had bubble young in eighth grade. I had a shop right behind McKinley school where I went to school and grammar
Starting point is 00:34:48 school, there was a, that was my, my grammar school's name McKinley. There was an embroidery factory, a bridge. And then there was this shop right and shop right had an aisle just for gum. And they had Hubba Bubba and bubble young and we used to steal a case of bubble young, which is like 10 packages in the case with our pants and one of us could get caught the other one run and we go back to the school and I still remember sitting in the eighth grade and Miss Walsh's class and all of us eating bubble young and also somebody went to the front of the class to write some on the board.
Starting point is 00:35:26 People started throwing pieces of bubble young at this motherfucker. That shit was good. Right. And it hit hard and it hit like it was hitting the board. Like, ah, ah, I'm really trying to get in with a ladder to fix something. And somebody threw a piece of gum and went right between them and it clocked them. Right. This is the funniest thing I've clocked them and some richie.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Colombo was known to be crazy. He was walking in for the bathroom. Yeah. And then John is on the face and he goes, Richie goes, what happened to you? And then Johnny goes, somebody hit me in the face with a piece of gum. Richie goes, what flavor was it? Just walked away from the fucking guy. That's the dumb shit in my fucking world that I remember.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Man, remember they had the next bubble young that came out was grape. And that was like mixed the flavors up. Yeah. Next level went to the next level. Oh, great. I still remember when that gum came out with the squirt in your mouth. Oh, freshen up, freshen up. First, it was green.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Yeah. Once cinnamon came out, you lost your fucking mind, dog. Dude, that was the shit fresh. You know, freshen up with that fucking jelly in the middle. That just got your fat as fuck. Yeah. It didn't do nothing to your breath. You still smell like Cheerios.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Just shot more sugar in your system. You lose your fucking mind and that gum will get your jaws tighter than fuck, Jack. You thought you throw three pieces of bubble, yum in your fucking mouth and you'd be working that fucking jaw. Yeah. Remember next was big league chew. Oh, that was delicious.
Starting point is 00:36:57 I need a whole fucking bag and swallow the fucking thing. Yeah, right. I'd swallow the whole fucking. I'd eat it and then swallow that big league. Are you still shitting it out? Sure. I'm still shitting up gum from 1978. Yeah, I'm shitting out gummy bears my entire life.
Starting point is 00:37:12 I loved all that stuff. Me too. When I was growing up, there was a candy store, like an old wholesale candy store down the avenue. They sold to other bodegas and stuff like that, but they had this thing called Devil Gum. It was way before. But we are big red, big red, way before big red.
Starting point is 00:37:31 This was when cinnamon was still uncensored. You eat two pieces of this shit and your fucking face would turn red and fuck. But it was so delicious. The gum was so delicious. It was like that gum from Clark. Yeah. Oh, yeah, I love that shit. That shit is so.
Starting point is 00:37:47 The gum from Clark, the gum from Clark comes. They still sell that. The real one kind of thing. Surely they do for $1.50, they sell those things. Yeah, and beacons. Beacons, yeah, yeah, yeah. Beacons, and that shit there has a texture. It's fucking great.
Starting point is 00:37:58 That gum has a different texture. Like, chicklets don't taste like that no more. Chicklets, every time you go to liquor store, it's always fucking hard. Now they took the mini-chicklets off the market, which is the only reason I was going to CVS. I haven't boycotted them legally yet. I haven't gone on a national fucking boycott yet.
Starting point is 00:38:14 I don't know it yet. But they used to have the little chicklets in the package. I would buy four of them. I love that. There's like the paper package. Yeah, and you eat the fucking whole thing at one shot. You're spitting orange chicklets the whole day. One sits behind your molar.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Yeah. Next thing you know, you got to go talk to the dentist. You got a little chick up behind your fucking thing. They took those off the market. The chicklets are always hard. God forbid you get a freshener. You need 10 jaws of chick who sucked 100 dicks in spring training to bust into that fucking wall.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Not a gun. Have these gums, and at these Hindu stores, they're always hard. And the flavor goes away in one second now. One fucking second. What is that? You just chew it for a minute, and I just spit it out. Listen, they don't make nothing like they used to, no more. You eat a good fucking piece of gum that's a flavor,
Starting point is 00:38:55 and you chew that motherfucker down to the stem. Lee, what's going on? You ready for another star? You going to sit there like a mama looking at you? I'm good. I don't think I need another star. Yes, you need a lot of fucking things. You eat dinner.
Starting point is 00:39:07 What did you do today? What did I do today? I had a podcast with Johnny Rock, and just worked here during the day. That's all. Lee Dogg. I'm going to watch like a fucking hole. Dude, I tell you the ACDC story.
Starting point is 00:39:21 Talk to me about ACDC. What's going on? All right. So yesterday, I was on serious radio for a couple of hours, so my phone was off. And when I came out, one of my best friends, Billy Rowe, from the band Jet Boy, who had a great record out in the 80s, he texted me.
Starting point is 00:39:36 And I'll read you the text, because it threw me for a loop. And I still can't believe it. And a lot of people would know, but this was the text. He hits me with breaking news. Brian Johnson forced to cancel remaining ACDC shows, facing potential permanent hearing loss. The band is going to make up shows with special guest singer. So I was like, what?
Starting point is 00:40:05 This can't be real. You know what I mean? I just saw ACDC three weeks ago. Brian Johnson killing it at the MGM, me and Lucas Hurl, just down there fucking rocking. Saw ACDC three times this year, every time Brian killing it. So then I got a Rolling Stone. They announced it.
Starting point is 00:40:23 And boom, that's it. I go to the website. That's all it says. I'm like, what the fuck? Then I start thinking overnight. I'm like, this sounds kind of funky. Because they only have 10 dates left on the tour. Why would they even bother with a guest singer after 36 years?
Starting point is 00:40:45 And why not just blow the dates out? You're billionaires. So then I start thinking about it. And I think, wait a minute. I think like Brian Johnson quit or got fired or something. And they're just going to carry on. So today, my buddy says that he heard that I'm going to read it to you.
Starting point is 00:41:09 This is insane. Brian Johnson quit or was forced to quit due to deafness. Replacement is a guy named Jimmy Barnes. This is all hearsay. A guy named Jimmy Barnes. Huge guy from, can you fire that up? From Australia. Singer, older dude.
Starting point is 00:41:32 I guess one of old AC. This is all allegedly, I don't know what's going on. But it's insane to me to think that at the end of this incredible career ACDCs had, that they would just go, let's put another guy in there and just keep rolling. That makes no sense to me. If your guy, let's say you and I are in a band for 36 years and then you go, I can't hear anymore.
Starting point is 00:42:01 We did it, you know, and Malcolm's gone. Phil Rudd's out because of the crystal meth and they're trying to hire someone to kill someone. It's over. It's over. Angus is the last guy. Just say, hey, we had a fucking killer run. So it's just blowing my mind.
Starting point is 00:42:18 So I did a full podcast today on it. And websites are already like talking about potential singers because nobody really knows. But from what I'm hearing, it's this Jimmy Barnes guy. It's crazy. Oh, here we go. So go to you. Can you go to the tube or no?
Starting point is 00:42:34 Yeah, what's on YouTube? Just put in Jimmy Barnes. And I'll show you which one. Listen to because so my buddy hit me from Australia today who works for Gibson guitars. And he said this Jimmy Barnes guy, go to that one there. Jimmy Barnes, Joe Bonamaso right there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:55 He said this guy was like a legend in Australia, a legend. And like if he joined in Australia, it'd be big. But everywhere else, people would be like because they still say they're going to play like the garden and stuff. I don't know who's, you know, so check them out here. Let's see if they let's see if we can hear. He's that guy on the right there. Should I skip over it a little bit?
Starting point is 00:43:25 Yeah, I think so. Let's see here. I was checking it today. His voice. Super jam, something to be three right there. OK, there we go. Joe Bonamaso, that guy's killer, man. Right?
Starting point is 00:43:55 One night I got really stoned and watched like 10 of his videos. Killer, right? Like with different singers and different things. Yeah. Pretty interesting to watch. He's a, he wears the suit. He's a different guy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:08 He wears the suit. Yeah. He wears the suit. He wears the suit. He wears the suit. Yeah. With the glasses and everything. With the glasses.
Starting point is 00:44:16 Yeah. And he's fucking rocks. Keep going, keep going. Yeah, let's get to the voices. Let's just get to the singing. We'll move on. Yeah. Tell it.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Let's see here. Where's the singing at? This whole thing on YouTube. Oh, here we go. It kind of looks like Brian, right? You know, bro, I got to be honest with you. Yeah. This is my fucking beef.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Yeah. You know, like, all right, I went to see Bond with Ted Nugent. Yeah. I went to a lot of things and I believe in evolution and stuff like that. Brian Johnson was great, you know, for me. But once I got into what I got into, I got into it. Yeah. I didn't really.
Starting point is 00:45:16 After for those to about the rock, we salute you. I was pretty much done. I salute it. Easy, easy. Yeah. You know, and I moved on and there's some stuff I like. You know, it's like we spoke with Rudy. These bands are fucking great right now.
Starting point is 00:45:31 They're at the bed. Like you said, 36 years. Yeah. And what, 10 years before that with Angus or with Bond. Yeah, like 10 years. You know, that's 46 years. 46 years of playing together. You're as tight as can be.
Starting point is 00:45:45 But, you know, I don't know, Brian. I don't even know. I don't even know. And you're right. At this point, just go away. Yeah. Just just go away. And when Brian Johnson gets better and he could do three songs, we'll do a farewell show
Starting point is 00:46:00 on TV, which you guys are billionaires anyway. Yeah. Who cares? You know, it's like, you know, they. Well, how real do you think the sound loss thing is Dean? I mean, you play for years. Well, well, my question is this is all I thought about. And this is just because this is my favorite band of all time.
Starting point is 00:46:22 In my mind, I was thinking, and this is just my insanity. They did the new record a year ago, rock or bus. So they worked on that record a year before. So they're two years in. So Brian Johnson, 67. So maybe he goes in and he goes, look, I'm 65 right now. Let's do this one. Malcolm's out.
Starting point is 00:46:41 He's got dementia. We'll we'll we'll fucking do the baseball stadiums. They sold 2.7 million tickets this year. Only number two to Taylor Swift. They go, we'll do the. That's amazing. That's insane. That's insane.
Starting point is 00:46:55 Yeah. How many dates do you know? I don't know, but it wasn't a lot. And you can look that up. So then they. I think maybe they have a big meeting. It's like a corporation. He goes, look, we'll just do this run.
Starting point is 00:47:05 And it'll be incredible. We'll go out on top with a record and a huge fucking tour. And now here it is. It's been two years almost. And I think Angus was like, let's let's let's keep going. And I maybe he went, man, what do you mean? Keep going. We just let's just, you know, because they dropped these dates out of nowhere
Starting point is 00:47:25 last month and people were surprised. Like, what are these dates? Hurl. And I went, we're like, this is crazy. They're playing again. I thought they were, it was over, you know? So maybe Angus was like, we're going to do more dates all the way through 2017 or something. And he was like, oh man.
Starting point is 00:47:41 And then maybe they just said, all right, well, you know, we're going to keep going. And I saw a tour that just got announced. And when I saw it, I didn't really react to it. But then I thought about it throughout the day. And I'm like, this could either be a fucking kick ass show. Yeah. Oh, this could be a bust out. And I guarantee it's going to be a kick ass show.
Starting point is 00:48:02 Let me guess the one. Hit me. Def Leppard Arios Speedwagon. No. That one? Okay. Bad company. Oh.
Starting point is 00:48:10 And Joe Walsh. Oh, yeah, right? Oh, they're playing like the Greek or something. That's going to be fucking crazy in this league. Like that, that's like a slow finger in the ass. Like people are like, but there's some people that have come going. Oh, fuck yeah. Let's go to that.
Starting point is 00:48:23 Because just bad company alone, if that guy could still pipe it out. That guy could still pipe it out and they could still play like motherfuckers. So just that alone, never mind Joe Walsh comes out there and does a few of his jams and then starts doing maybe somebody shows up, you know, from the Eagles. You never fucking know. James gang stuff. Something. There's this could be a dangerous fucking show that you sit there and go, wow.
Starting point is 00:48:52 And then they all play together at the end. That would be sick. No, I'm just saying they did that. They came out and they just did like feel like making love or an old free song like fire and water. Great things are happening in fucking music. Yeah. Like you look at the Hollywood Bowl schedule.
Starting point is 00:49:08 It's phenomenal. You look at the garden schedule. It's phenomenal. There's some great fucking bands and there's a lot of stuff I don't know, but you know, for you to be, it's just adds to something. I thought I was into serious Chris Cornell's coming back. Yeah, I saw that. Now, when is he coming?
Starting point is 00:49:23 I don't know. They just announced it yesterday. I saw the dates. Okay. Yeah. He's doing like Santa Barbara Bowl. That place is great. You ever go there?
Starting point is 00:49:31 No. Oh, fuck. It's so weird. You walk up through like a neighborhood, like it looks like you're walking up to Runyon Canyon and you're about to go hiking and you walk up like a dirt road and you turn behind a guy's backyard and it's this fucking incredible bowl that's been there since like the thirties or something. You know, I saw black crows oasis there.
Starting point is 00:49:54 Unbelievable. I saw my morning jacket there and it is beautiful. You got to look at that thing online, man. It's a miniature, miniature Hollywood Bowl, really small and badass, but that's a great place to see shows, man. It's worth the drive. You go out, you see a band, you get a hotel for the night and chill in Santa Barbara. It's funny you said you went to Atomic Records yesterday and I'm trying to make it my weekly
Starting point is 00:50:20 thing just so it's like a hobby for me. Like 3.30, I have to pick the baby up at 5.30, so 3.30 gives me an hour over there. I'll meet you over there. And I would get home, you know, whatever to put the albums away and then I sit there and jerk off on the albums that I bought pretty much, you know? So once we got to the studio, my friend Damon gave me a turntable for Christmas. So great. I said, this is the time.
Starting point is 00:50:43 This was my hobby when I was a kid. It brings me back a little bit. Even my wife asked me and we walked out of Atomic today. She goes, I'm surprised you don't go down there and play more music. I go, you know, with these people in the daytime. You know, they don't be in the daytime. In the building here? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:57 I'd have this on full fucking speed ahead. All day long I'd be down here with loud music, smoking bones. That's your office, man. This is it. This is your back to basics office, you know? Fucking great. So I made a list of albums that I really wanted to get and every time I'd go to either Amoeba or anywhere else, I couldn't fucking find them.
Starting point is 00:51:18 And if I did find them, they were fucking off the charts expensive. Yeah. And not clean. No. I went to Amazon yesterday. Lee and I went on the phone and I went to Amazon yesterday to find animals. Pink Floyd, they went $79 bucks, you know, for, it's rare, but it's like new for 80 fucking bucks.
Starting point is 00:51:37 And one part of me wants to pay it, but the other part of me is like, Joe, you bought the sound for $7.95. I saw one yesterday, man, for $25, I'll grab it for you. That freak. What's it called? Freak. This is another great record store in Ventura Boulevard in Sherman Oaks. This place, all their records are phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:51:58 And I've been going there since like for years because they used to have like, here it is, freak beat records. And it's crazy. They got animals in there. I saw it, 25 bucks. And I've got two copies of animals because it's so great. I don't want to, you know, I don't want to wear one out. That's my favorite man, dogs, all that stuff, whole album is fucking phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:52:24 So I just wanted to get back into something. I wanted to get back into something that was real important to me when I was young. And I tried to pitch a show called Beyond the Sleeve, but it's really tough to pitch a music show because you have to reach out to the writers and all these companies. They were telling me about a story where somebody at CAA got okay to use somebody's song, but then when they really went to check the guy, the song was written by six people.

Starting point is 01:18:40 Mirror mirror. Oh, yeah I'm going home and there was no computer in those fucking days Lee Yeah, and they wouldn't tell you afterward the name of that song is mirror mirror It's off to whatever album so I had to go and buy the fucking album and when I put on this album it destroyed me, you know, just Till this day when I put on this album Yeah, I think about a certain period in my life because the album came out in July of 81 I finally picked it up like December 81. It came alive
Starting point is 01:19:16 People were talking about songs you go to parties by February people were putting this fucking album on this album was and by April of May of that year when I was a senior in high school, no matter whose car you went into. Yeah, they had high and dry Yeah, how we play this Lee on the turntable. Do we play it on YouTube? I Think you too for better. Yeah, you would be better in here But if you wanted to crank it on that I wouldn't blame you would you do YouTube? Yeah, that's to YouTube for them You know, I don't know if that I don't let's see the little look at the record or a precarious That's the most important. So yeah, so what's on what song do you want to play off of it?
Starting point is 01:19:55 Oh ladies trains take a look at this album cover. No I don't have anybody's here, but the First the first of all the most crazy thing about this record Incredible album cover the art, you know, the guys diving into an empty pool, but on the back I believe they're just around 18 and 19 at this era So this is the singer, but this was a guy Pete Willis Who to me was the king of the band? He played a hammer explore and he was absolutely crushing
Starting point is 01:20:30 You've got Steve Kark who later died From alcohol and then you got Rick Allen who lost an arm and a crash has been a crazy curse And then you've got the bass player Savage Rick Savage and then of course Joe Elliot But this is the original lineup and they're from Sheffield, England And I went to Sheffield one time and I couldn't believe it Sheffield's an old steel town like Detroit And all I kept thinking was how did this fucking band get out of Sheffield and into America? It's unbelievable to think their kids man. They're fucking kids
Starting point is 01:21:07 They lived at their mom's houses and shit and this and it's all about the tunes on this It's so fucking raw and radical and they sound Like, you know, they sound unbelievable. It was way different band than they are later on pyromanian hysteria and even now This album has always been like, uh I don't know whenever I hear this album. I just think of fun times with my friends. It's it people looking for me stealing Yeah, no worries and blow Fun time with my friends. No worries. No worries. And this song this album was you know, like the fucking uh I don't know what to call it like the staple for that summer. It's the high water mark, man

That's right They wanted you to walk by and fucking buy this And and they had to be a decision to all five members of the fucking band. Look at this
Starting point is 01:35:03 You know, we were talking about this right here. Look at the way you want me to read this go all the way down scroll down to uh, whatever the fuck you going Packaging yes packaging, you know, wish you were here. Let me get my glasses on Oh, wow, look at that, uh, they had the dude he he went out on tour with them in 74 Scott Jorgensen stormed thorgensen. Yep. I had a company the band they sent me for a tour given series on the meaning of the lyrics Eventually deciding that the songs were in general concerned with unfiltered Presence rather than Barnett's Barrett's illness
Starting point is 01:35:40 This theme of absence was reflected in the ideas produced by the long hours spent Brainstorming with the band blah blah blah blah blah Uh Cell phone Dorgensen had noted that the Roxy muses country life was sold in an opaque green cell Cellophane sleeves centering the cover image and he copied the idea concealing the artwork I wish you were here and a black colored shrink wrap Therefore making the album are absent the concept behind welcome to the machine and we have it here with the bag
Starting point is 01:36:12 Let's kill her Well, the guys were actually on fire right here you walk by this Yeah, and you got a black fucking bag. That's it And the concept was behind the welcome to the machine and have as good as you have to That the use of a handshake or often an empty gesture And gory hardy designed the sticker containing the album's logo on two mechanical hands right there. Yeah fucking genius. Yeah fucking genius, man Uh mechanical handshake logo would also appear on the labels of the vinyl album this time black and blue black The album's cover image was inspired by the idea that people tend to conceal their true feelings
Starting point is 01:36:50 For the fear of getting burned and thus the two businessmen were pictures shaking hands one man on fire Getting burned is a common phrase in the music industry often used by artists who are denied royalty payments Two stuntmen were used. I mean, you know the photograph was taken on the Warner Brothers lot in Los Angeles Initially the wind was blowing in the rental direction. The flames were forced into rondo's face burning his mustache How fucking crazy is this? I know right? I didn't even know it was real guys on fire. Yeah, I just thought it was dead Yeah, this is this is guys. This is the thought it was a complete different situation You know, that's why I think even like when I did the cds with Lee I always fucking thought about something, you know, I snuck into a church with Felicia and took pictures
Starting point is 01:37:35 You know this time I fucking walked with my daughter Because I wanted the album cover to reflect what I was thinking at that time Or who the fuck I was and I kind of a joke in a way, you know, I am Catholic. What are you gonna do? But we don't get that no more now. All I gotta do is go on itunes Click a thing and I got an email saying we took $2.99 out of your fucking account And uh say la vie you don't get a letter. You don't get a picture You don't get a handshake. You don't get a history behind that joke. Nope. You don't get who gots. So it just shows you Why sometimes these musicians get pissed about that money because they put a lot of extra work into this which like new wave
Starting point is 01:38:14 are probably charging them hundreds of thousands Like the guy designed that logo. What do you think they charged up left it to design that logo a lot 10,000 Yeah 10,000 sure, mate. Yeah, you know, they weren't rich, but they thought they were gonna get rich. Yep And the logo lasted for fucking ever. Oh, yeah, I I had uh, I had the guy on um That wrote this uh acdc book called uh, the brothers young
Starting point is 01:38:44 The guys that built acdc and they there was just a guy who worked at atlantic Like an intern or something in the art department that drew their logo And he didn't get any money. He was just an intern and acdc has been using that logo for fucking 50 years on shirts and Garbage cans and bumper stickers and lighters and fucking beers and everything that fucking logo You know, they got it free It's crazy, right Just uh
Starting point is 01:39:19 I don't know where the artwork and music went Yeah, and it's something that people have heard me talk about before but it still baffles me because it's such a This is what the music is going there. You know, when I look at a picture I just look at a picture and this with music they made you look at the picture and then go in it Let's go in the picture and get the album and let's play the other room You know because we don't want my mom to hear it. You know, it's uh It's just a big bottom. I wish We could find a way to do a show we could do this on a weekly
Starting point is 01:39:55 basis without the fear of getting sued or fucking getting hung by our balls because I think that this is missing from a lot of people's lives, you know, this is this could put your life together if you're on blow And you get out of a rehab and you go, you know, what do I do as a child? I had 300 albums what I do with my song for 10 bucks and I got out on coke Let me go build my thing up again. Yeah make little notes and the stupidest is it just you like music anyway I like music man. I can't you want to throw me in jail throw me in jail You want to really fuck me up take away my music? Yeah, what about local access? Can you do it there or no?
Starting point is 01:40:32 What play music? I don't know. I gotta find out That's why I've done this podcast with you because it's like There's very few people that I can really really fucking talk to music about it's like you maren burr um We all love music and we're just fucking I think it's the era we just grew up in it just It just ran parallel with our insanity. Do me a favor Missing persons mental hopscotch. Oh the other day. I'm strolling and I see this on youtube Oh, yeah, and I and also there's like getting smacked
