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. They reminded me of just being in a
Starting point is 00:01:39 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, and just rock talk, you know, like listen to that weed, you know. This reminds me of that. Did you guys have cool rooms of kids? Like I had my mom was so, I was like she was strict and I was just a vanilla kid so it never,
Starting point is 00:02:04 I never really decorated it, but like having a bong or some black light 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. But what about the children first? Yeah that one boy that one hung up there and and the kiss one where their dressed as army got the you know with the drums and the battle wounds the US Army All those man another Joey Deer story people know about 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

Oh yeah, Alex, our fucking scared. 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 to bidet the shower, the tub, the shit, the window, the whole fucking thing. Nice, two sinks.
Starting point is 00:03:00 And then I had a bathroom in the hallway, but the bedroom I moved in to, whoever had the house before, was a girls room. Pink carpet, mirrors everywhere. Barbie room. You know how many times people walked in my room and walked into the mirror? Oh, 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, 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 them,
Starting point is 00:03:34 and he wasn't allowed in my upstairs, like he would come to the living room, let's go up to the music, then we can't go upstairs, my mom don't let boys in my room. You got the speakers up there? I had the speakers in the stereo up there. on the boys in my room. You got the speakers up there? I had the speakers on the stereo up there. I had a Jimmy, I had a Led Zeppelin poster that Ray Canella, the guy who calls in here, the podcast I called a couple of weeks ago, he had.

There's real And he was still playing he played for the sixes, but at that time they didn't pay the sixes So it was like a generic costume He had a way like they took the sixes off it. For the poster. For the poster. For hilarious. And then I had the McDonald's, all American basketball team. And I just on the floor, next to this thing,

Like the first five or six albums were very confusing albums. I was still in the grabs. I totally joked it. They were somebody, me and Steve Simone, you know, Richard, Richard Prye was basically the
Starting point is 00:05:00 first album I bought. Right. I don't know if it's, is's something I said or the nigga's crazy. But when he sees that he sees Jesus, I knew Jesus. I met him on the railroad depot. I told him, don't go down there messing with them Jews without no money. I forgot about that. I had that one in Bicentennial nigga.
Starting point is 00:05:19 And I had them hidden. Yeah, I could say how to be hidden. I remember having the Beatles wide out. I had to admit. Yeah, yeah, I could say how to be hidden. And I had, I remember having the Beatles, White Alamed. I had the Beatles help. Yeah. I had a, okay, I was like a Michael Jackson, too. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:35 So I had the last two Jackson albums, moving violation, and the best of Michael Jackson's who miss Pat arguing with me that Alamed didn't exist. The one with the bird on the cover? The pigeon on the cover. He still has the nose. He still has the black nose. That's a great fucking great. It sits out. I still remember all these albums. That room was, and I was telling me that what I would do is at night I'd play records in my fucking bedroom, but in the daytime
Starting point is 00:06:03 I had a little window. I could play them on my mom's living room stereo. I just kick ass. It was all those old school box of controllers with it. Oh yeah. Turn table to control on the other side of the TV in the middle. Yeah, maybe that like it's like an all one piece fucking furniture.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Yeah, guys, one fucking piece of furniture like this table. Yeah. This how long it was. Yeah. You serious? So it went from here to there. Okay. 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 the track play it. And then the TV was in the middle with that thing is that Kevin put on there. I guarantee those things still work. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:43 Oh, yeah. Those things will work to the fucking end of time I know people have I guarantee if you go on eBay or you know the ride sales There out there and you're absolutely right you put a needle from today on there and it's brand new brand fucking Yeah, you know, I saw a guy Joey He did something that was so amazing. 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 was straight 70s 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
Starting point is 00:07:22 Jesus, I just remember something that's so sad and it was so sad to me for a long time talking about turntable. 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 house. He went to pick up more stuff and whatever they were moving from
Starting point is 00:07:41 and we robbed the house. And mid-mid move. So Renee and we robbed the house. And mid mid move. So Renee and this dad and the mother moved out of there. They were like running from credit credit isn't stuff. But for some reason, stereo was fucking weird. Like the stereo was just old to me. Like I was like, I don't want to stare in the mind.
Starting point is 00:08:00 I need some help to get the chicks up here. I have to be the cool guy on the block. And on the corner was this place on four, four, five corners, it's still there on a client's place. And the word on the street was you go and get a fish or sterile. I think your hands on something. No, my hands. Oh, that's over there. I'm not worried about it, which in the day,
Starting point is 00:08:25 a fish is stereotyally, it was like, I'm tremendous. This is before Blow Punk. People start saying, oh, you have a fish or I have a Blow Punk. I buy components, man. And if there's everybody got real cool after a while. Component, what happened was,
Starting point is 00:08:39 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 Yeah, the whole stereo had to get thrown out Because it was connected to the fucking CD and the cassette play. Yeah, so here you were with 90 fucking a tracks What the fuck are you gonna do now the a tracks broke? Okay, now I got a bi-alms I got the almond brothers live from the film Mauricee's time 8 track and I got to buy fucking
Starting point is 00:09:08 Alms so I said enough is enough so I went down to fucking Fischer whatever that yeah called and you gave me 50 bucks down and the whole thing came out like 480 and those days Lee 480 hours for a 15 for a 13 year old kid 14 year old kid It was like a thousand bucks twelve hundred bucks 13 15 hundred bucks. Yeah, it's a first stereo too It's like for something for school and I went and I financed it Yeah, when I hit the number I paid it all off. Oh, they let a 12 year old kid finance I'm on coastline. Yeah, okay. I'm had a coastline it your mom asked a coastline shit
Starting point is 00:09:45 But at least you made payments it you had a walk down the payment book they gave you a payment book Yeah, and you had a walk down there every Friday and pay the $15 like a man You know when you felt good like this was my fucking stereo man like this was it like I took care of this I dusted it 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 that stereo is today and broke my heart because I had a tape. You know, when you have a tone for you, like you buy a turntable, after a year or two, the turntable gets to see your style and how you
Starting point is 00:10:21 drop the record and you learn and you get the needle right. It's, it was a sad, was a sad thing in my life like three is not having that turntable. Well you know my best friend they had the Moranse and I told Marin this story and it was basically the blue collar Macintosh, like Macintosh was so much money, but the Moran's and my buddy's dad bought it and he had the Moran's 2275 and a turntable, a pioneer turntable and these speakers and we'd play a highway to hell on it. And a couple years back I bought a Moran's 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.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Like, you know, because your ears grew up on a sound and that's the sound your brain remembers forever. So when I hooked this whole thing up and I put on, you know, a record, I was like, that's it, that's eighth grade right there Moran's yeah man and it had the blue lighting and and the in the Moran's had the weighted wheel for the tuner you just hit it it would go you know on a ball baron and that was like pro the other ones you had to turn and they're
Starting point is 00:11:41 all funky this one just hit the book the wheel I just And man I got it now in my house. It's described. It is weird to describe You know, I became nerdish About it that I was even buying magazines you know me a long time. We had them by magazines Yeah, I was buying stereo magazine high five mags funny. I was watching vinyl. Yeah, that's How is it? vinyl is an interesting show. show, it's interesting show this week they have like a slime the family stone type

Yeah. But it's entertaining. You know, it's entertaining to moron like me because it's my time. I was a kid. I, all that.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Last week they sang a song on that two weeks ago that killed me to chick that fucking heist herself, that with the pills, with the brother. Amy Whitehouse. No. Amy Whitehouse. This is the fucking they started. Oh, 70s. Oh, oh, so they're doing real bands. It's like stories of real stuff going on. It's really weird. Like the first episode is him going into haven't talked to the Led Zeppelin. Okay. And Peter Grant is yelling on him and his he's selling the record label to the Germans. Yeah. And then what the second episode the Germans in the room and Peter Grant walks in and he goes just let you know I'm not selling I'm not I'm leaving you guys I'm not going to be
Starting point is 00:13:15 and I'm not working with Germans. Yeah wow. How to work with fucking Germans. They got a guy playing Peter Grant. Yeah, but he's not really six foot six three hundred. He's a little short and he talks a lot. He tries to redo that scene from Oh from yeah, you know the man's out there with the posters Yeah, you see out there Anything to the name of this fucking man. Yeah show man not my man Yeah, that's that's that's great. And that's you know, it's somebody asked me how that scam work. Yeah, you know the 70s It is the most interesting thing I ever read in my life. I had these FBI files
Starting point is 00:13:53 From the 70s when I was on the road in the early 98s and 99 I had an FBI buddy Yeah, we gave me these files because I told them that they were doing a lot of mafia movies and it was take these and do the research And I can't even the guy's name right now. Okay, this is how fucking at least Joe is in the drug. And every this guy was a well known heroin sound. Wow. But if you look at this guy, he was a businessman. Yep.
Starting point is 00:14:20 You know, he was the business end of it. No flash, no nothing. But he was again, being no captain, that reported straight to Castelano. Like he didn't talk to nobody. That's how much money he was robbing. Okay. When you're robbing that type of money, 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 nine DLV supermarkets
Starting point is 00:14:49 all over New York and the five boroughs in Connecticut. Lee, they went to each supermarket and built an aisle. I told you about this. They built an aisle like in the express line. Yeah. And that went right to them. Wow. Like the years later, the general manager goes, every store in the country has 10 hours. Every store
Starting point is 00:15:12 he has 11. Why is that? So the 10 registers they were giving, but the one register was going right to this guy. It's the payoff. He had 90 stores going. So one register was going right to this guy. That's the payoff. He had 90 stores going. Oh, it's higher register. Can you imagine what he got like the Thanksgiving to life for 3,000 a day? There's 90 of them.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Yeah, yeah. There's 90 of them. A day. A day. I'd say you paid 300 for somebody to make the move and pay you that money every fucking day. What did you care for fuck? Yeah, fuck yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:43 So what they were doing in the garden was the mob was yeah. Yeah. Led Zeppelin had their people. But what's Peter Grant gonna walk on every floor of the garden and everything. Right. So they were just put up stands. Yeah. Yeah. In the garden. Yeah. Because they still have that. Yeah. Like whenever I go to a game or a concert they have people with bootleg t-shirts outside. Yeah. But I can't imagine them inside the venue. Yeah, but this was the mob itself at the garden. This was the union. It's all union. It's all union.
Starting point is 00:16:10 The green coats. So the union would say, Lee, to me a favor, can we listen? I'm going to be 20 t-shirts. Some pretend box. You get $3 a t-shirt, what do you get on the phone? Yeah, some until somebody comes in and gets you. Yeah, some. somebody come to get you Yeah, someone who gives a fuck
Starting point is 00:16:27 Look at that table like in like when you're walking around like a back area in there He had to have them in there in the fucking living mine outside. That was a complete different operation Yeah, that's somebody else. This is the one inside. This is the one inside inside like actual like what yeah So finally, you know, let's up on with and do five nights at the garden. Finally, after the third night, you would go up to Lee and go lead. Who's the fat little Italian looking guy? Yeah. With the stand with programs and fucking. He's got a guy. He's not one of us. Yeah. Oh my God. So let's say I caught a deal with Peter
Starting point is 00:17:03 Grant and said, well,, we're gonna have one concession stand and that 30% goes to the garden. Yeah, I told them about three. I'm gonna have 15 of them. Yeah. And the band would 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. So that was just another way. So that's the scene in the song, means the saying that we're talking about,
Starting point is 00:17:29 I 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's amazing that they could even think of it. Who would fucking think to question it? Imagine how much they were making on stuff like
Starting point is 00:17:51 the Ringling Brothers circus. That everything, yeah, all the events. Until you get caught. Did they do the nicks too? Every event, no, no, no, no. Well, the nicks are theirs. Yeah, that's the. The nicks are in house, they're not gonna rob themselves. Oh, okay. You what I'm saying they gonna rob the least events that come in like the two events like my wife works at the Hollywood
Starting point is 00:18:11 Bull they book it and then there's a promoter who books 50 of them there they can't get you ticket They got nothing to do with that they got a check. Yeah, they can negotiate a friend fee and they sell t-shirts and Solders 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? Well, I'll tell you what this is something crazy man. I go to the wheel turn a lot and it's over and over there in the Crea town. Bless you. And these guys, these boo-legged guys,
Starting point is 00:18:51 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, there's cops everywhere and everything. And they're just like now They they pay someone off. You know what I mean? Well, I said no
Starting point is 00:19:11 Excuse me. I'm very sorry. I got allergies. They're very they keep doing until you get caught. So let's say Ringling brothers and one of them barely they do a three fucking nightstand at the guard. Yeah, okay And I'm sure the same thing is not the Boston guard don't think that they're fucking immunocrystia They do a three fucking nightstand at the guard. Yeah. Okay. And I'm sure the same thing is the Boston Guard. Don't think that they're fucking immune. Of course, everywhere. You know, everywhere. You know, when the fucking team comes to play at the Boston...
Starting point is 00:19:36 To the Garden? The baseball place. Anyway. Oh yeah, Fenway. They only have six guys selling white sock stuff, but they got three guys selling white sock stuff, but they got three guys selling white sock stuff and that goes in their fucking pocket. You'd be surprised, mate.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Surprise how much little theft there is 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 it. I read a story a while ago that somehow
Starting point is 00:20:08 this one guy figured out that if they put one less olive in every jar, it would save them millions of dollars a year. So they just started putting in one, because no one's gonna say anything. There he's counting. If it says 29 piece, you're not counting. And you can't even remember. You whipped out some olives to, you know,
Starting point is 00:20:28 for some martinis. You know, go, yeah, we got robbed on one. Even if you do, you go, ah, we're missing one, who cares? And then this scam was 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 that all
Starting point is 00:20:45 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 just baggage fees not even tickets. So let's say there's a stuartous there's a clerk okay that she's not figuring out a way to type in numbers so that you don't have to pay for baguettes fees, but she's still charging you. Yeah. I'm sure she, everything is very computerized now, but there's always a genius. There is.
Starting point is 00:21:18 People always find the flaw. And it's not even geniuses, like, there's something, when I worked at CVS, there was a button called like non-taxable, and you could just put it in a price. If I was a thief, I could just put everything in 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 with taxes 204, whatever,
Starting point is 00:21:36 you need something bigger than that obviously, but you can figure out the prices and just charge them whatever. I told you when Michael Dow was here, that I bought you the car wash. Right. Yeah. I remember like going home and going like I'm robbing these guys with gin and me for six thousand a month. That's just me taking from them. What about the partner I got? Yeah. She's robbing for six. That's 12 thousand a month. They're going to be off a buck 30 next year. Yeah. And they're gonna go, what the fuck is happening?
Starting point is 00:22:07 Or not. Or not, yeah. Or not because maybe we weren't the only people robbing. I know we weren't the only people robbing that. Yeah. There was a guy around the back that was Robin Blight, a black guy and his brother that would detail us. They would detail 10 cars and saying they only had three.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Yeah. You know, in there, and then anytime there's a drop the top anytime there's cash transactions and it's like piecework like detailing and and You know, I don't know when you park your car. Yeah, that parker's all that kind of stuff you figure out you could take a hundred and I right off the top Okay, the other day dad went to wash my car. It was funny because I had a bunch of change in the middle. When I got back in the change was still there. And I was like, you know what, he could take a quarter from my recall. Yeah. How do I know? Because I
Starting point is 00:22:56 used to do that. Right. The work in certain. It has to be a car salesman and mad at him. But I was doing comedy in 93. There was night time at my they go home I would go into service and go through the fucking cars yeah get some change and get and find fucking books I would find tokens to get over the bridge and those books to fucking with four-hour books oh yeah and I would go right to the bridge and sound to somebody hey there's ten's 10 of them. That's 40 bucks. Give me 20. Yeah. Yeah. There's dudes in the Bay Area, Bart, you know, the subway there. And whenever you roll up,
Starting point is 00:23:34 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 nine dollars, you know this here They've got like slider cards and and those 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 Well, 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 boot like black market just door to door.
Starting point is 00:24:14 How crazy. Yeah. Why not? It's like the copper guys robbing those houses for all the copper. I did all that. I'm shitly. So I understand. I get what is to steal a steak from a supermarket and snow-mass village.
Starting point is 00:24:29 I would go in there every night and I had a lot of us and I asked for my salami thing. But I would steal a $10 fucking stake. And my backpack. I did it every night. Yeah. And you know, it adds up, I feel guilty for doing it tonight, but I did it. It's a fucking truth. And I was doing blow, and I wasn't doing blow those nights. I just knew I could steal a steak for free, and some nights I got cocky, I stole two
Starting point is 00:24:52 steaks. And some nights I stole two steaks, and I was a tell for Jimmy Berkel. That's how crazy I got in there. I get all this shit, and now, in hindsight, you feel kind of bad in the way that I did these things. When I worked at Rendo Lumber, oh my God, that I did these things. Yeah. When I worked at the rental lumber, oh my god when I was 15, 16, 17 I worked at a lumber yard. Teen down where I did to these people was brutal. It was brutal. I think back today I paid for all those cents. Brutal. It wasn't just, it was 2000 a week in lumber I was stealing from them.

You know that guy would come back during our only mate 20,000 today every business fucking empty Yeah, we used to have a plywood that was galvanized so we could put it on boats yeah marine plywood it's called those were double the money I would sell those were fucked in all the dope people would just backup their fucking trucks and I just go back that up and load it up they give me cash see you later fucking buy 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 We have five people I call it shit. It's a dollar the old pumps before their computer You they're just that
Starting point is 00:26:39 Remember those and 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 the 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 turned the key and pump again turned the key and then you'd go up and he'd 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.
Starting point is 00:27:11 It's just people are 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, know when people are gonna work You know you were whatever and on your company time you go on the computer You're gonna put one on wagon off in your cubicle. That's theft right. Yeah, you know all those simple things are fucking theft You know when they add up they fucking add up, you know corporations and thieves
Starting point is 00:27:41 I mean, I don't feel bad for them. They rob everybody. They rob their own lines, all those motherfuckers. You know, when you call American Airlines, you're talking to some poor fucking black chick who got beat up last night, and they got him in there for the small 40, with no benefits, booking people that you're making shit. Me and was, this chick hasn't gone out of the hood the whole fucking life, you know, I'm only teasing you.
Starting point is 00:28:03 But, 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 we we goes criminals is smart this fucking guy at worth for when I was 18 you rang up to fucking receipts and at the other night you zed out you closed the register you counted the money you counted the money, you counted your bank out, you counted it was said $1800 and you counted $1860, well you made $60 extra, that one in your pocket, you put $1800 in the envelope, you put the fucking receipt in there, and you leaped it and you put it in the fucking refrigerator, and you put the date on it. That was it.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Tipped, I took the fucking tip, money that was mine, whatever I made over on the register was. That was it. Tipped. Six. I took the fucking tip. Money, that was mine. Whatever I made over on the register was mine. And it was that simple. Well, one man I'm doing below in the city. I don't like, where can I get some money? Go wait a second. I got the key to the bar. I just go over there and steal on those envelops.
Starting point is 00:28:58 So first, I stole like two of them. It was like the fucking Puerto Rican that I am. Yeah. And then I think they said some to all the bartenders. Somebody steal them all up, and 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 them all up. And I would go on that and I'd open up their envelope, take the new envelope, put it in and take a hundred off the top so whoever closed the night before we surely got say you're all 100 fucking cruelty
Starting point is 00:29:27 You know who would think of that disgusting stuff? Lee I would yeah drug drugs. That's what drugs make you talk about how to score fucking money. Absolutely Drugs make you think like that Because you're like man this coke back then was it was 350 in a ball 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, 50, 75, 100, 100 to gram, 350 for an A-PAL, three and a half grams.
Starting point is 00:29:59 So, I mean, that's a lot of fucking money in the 70s and 80s. You're like, where am I gonna get that money? You know? Do you think how much of it was it just you are a good worker, like have a good work I think, and how much of it was, although it's yours, drug stuff,
Starting point is 00:30:14 just you really well, you trained in hustling, and now you're just pointing it towards like actual business. It was a little bit of both. My mom had me working at an early age, but even then, like, at an early age, I know how to flip things. Yeah, me too. I was doing creepy things, like, eight, nine. You know, like, my glue for sticky Charlie and Charlie, and 25 cents more, you know, he was a junkie. You know, I tried to fucking mess on a liar, over story. That's a two fucking story. I tried to sell this kid. Let's say glue was a junkie. You know, I tried to fucking mess on a liar over story. That's a two fucking story.
Starting point is 00:30:46 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 him down. And most days I got this fucking loser to give me a 50 fucking cents. We did shit like that. I remember we sold bubblegum. They, when bubblegum first came out, it was unheard unheard of and this one store sold it miles away
Starting point is 00:31:08 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 a piece because no one seemed bubble yum That shit was next level square big piece of gum. Unbelievable flavor. Delicious. Oh, and it was like a quarter piece where making money hand over fit. And then for a while, Bubba Yum went off the market
Starting point is 00:31:33 because it said it had like red dye, number five in it or something. And it was gone for like a year. It was like Bubba Yum's gone. What the fuck happened? And then it came back and by then it was in every store. But back in the day day this one market had it It was like a Chinese market had bubble yum
Starting point is 00:31:49 In eighth grade I had a shop right behind McKinley school Well went to school and grammar school. It was I was my my grammar school name McKinley There was an embroidery factory a bridge and then there was this from shop right and embroidery factory, a bridge, and then there was this shop right, and shop right at an aisle just for gun, and then hubba-bubba, and bubble-yup, and we used to steal a case, a bubble-yup, which is like ten packages in a case, with in our pants, and one of us could get caught when we run, and we go back to the the school and I still remember sitting in the eighth grade and Miss Walsh's class and all was eating bubblegum and also somebody went to the front of the class to write some of the board People started throwing pieces of bubblegum at this motherfucker
Starting point is 00:32:36 That shit was good, right and it hit hard and it hit like it was hitting the boy like that like it was hitting the boy like, ah, I don't know, Janet, with a lot of the fix up and something through a piece of gum and we're right between the wall and it clogged them, right? This is the funniest thing I've had.

Starting point is 00:33:05 Somebody hit me in the face with a piece of gum. He's richie goes what flavor was it The way from the fucking guy That's the dumb shit in my fucking world that I remember man. Remember they had the next bubble yum that came out was Grape and that was it mixed the flavors up. Yeah next level like people went to the next bubble yum that came out was grape. And that was like, that was the mixed flavors of, yeah. The next level, like. People went to the next level. Oh, grape bubble yum. I still remember when that gum came out

Yeah, I'm shit now gummy bears my entire I love dog that stuff Thank you when I was growing up there was candy store, like an old wholesale candy store in downtown New Haven. They sold to other bodegas and stuff like that. But they had this thing called Devil Gump. It was way before Big Red.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Big Red. Oh, yeah. This was when the cinnamon was still unsensored. 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 Oh, yeah, that's shit. That's it. It's so Clark. Oh, yeah They still sell that the one

A chicklets don't taste like that no more chickens. Every time you go to liquor store, it's always fucking hard. Now they took the mini chickens off the market,
Starting point is 00:35:14 which is the only reason I was going to CVS. I haven't boycotted them legally yet. I haven't got a national fucking boycott yet. They don't know it yet, but they used to have the little chickens in the package out by four of them. I love that. It's like the double package. Yeah, and don't know it yet But they used to have the little chickens in the package out by four of them Yeah, you eat the fucking whole thing at one shot you're spitting orange chickens the whole day one sits behind your mola Next thing you know you gotta go talk to the dentist. You got a little chicken behind your fucking thing
Starting point is 00:35:37 They took those off the market the chickens are always hard god forbid you get a freshener You need ten jaws a chicken suck the hundred dicks and spring training to bust into that fucking wall not of gum. Half these gums and if 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 like for a minute and I just spit it out. Listen now, mate, no, mate, they used to normally. You could fucking piece a gum that's a and you you chew that motherfucker down to the stem
Starting point is 00:36:06 Lee was going on you really fun another star. You know I said that like a mama look at me I'm good. I don't think I need another Yes, you need a lot of fucking things. Do we dinner what you do today? Yeah, what I do today? I had a podcast with Johnny Rock and Just worked out work here during the day. That's all we need a I'm gonna watch like like a fucking horse. Dude, I tell you the AC-DC story. Talk to me, but AC-DC, what's going on? All right, so yesterday I was on serious radio
Starting point is 00:36:33 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, Jitboy, who had a great record out in the 80s, he texted me, 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
Starting point is 00:37:01 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? 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 rockin. Saw ACDC three times this year every time
Starting point is 00:37:26 Brian killing it. So then I got a Rolling Stone, they announced it 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 ten dates left on the tour. Why would they even bother with a guest singer after 36 years and you know why not just blow the dates out your billionaires So then I start thinking about it and I think wait a minute
Starting point is 00:38:00 I think like I think like Brian Johnson quit or got fired or something, and they're just gonna carry on. So today, my buddy says that he heard that I'm gonna read it to, this is insane. Brian Johnson quit or was forced to quit, dude, deafness. Replacement is a guy named Jimmy Barnes. This is all, you know, hearsay. A guy named Jimmy Barnes, a huge guy from... Can you fire that up from Australia, singer, older dude? I guess one I'll old AC, this is all allegedly, you know, I don't know what's going on, but
Starting point is 00:38:45 it's like insane to me to think that like at the end of this incredible career AC DCs had that they would just go, let's put another guy in there and just keep rolling. It makes no sense to me. If you're a guy, let's say you and I are in a band for 36 years and then you go, I can't hear anymore. We did it, you know, and Malcolm's gone. Feel red-zout because of the crystal meth and they're trying to kill, hire someone to kill someone. It's over.
Starting point is 00:39:18 It's over. Angus is the last guy. Just say, hey, we had a fucking killer run. So it's just blow in my mind. 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 All right, I went to see Barn with Ted new Jan. Yeah, I went to a lot of things and I believe in evolution and stuff like that 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. I didn't really. After for those, to about the rock we salute you, I was pretty much done.
Starting point is 00:39:56 I salute you. They say, Dizzy, you know, when 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. They're like you said 36 years. And what 10 years before that would anger so would bond. Yeah, like 10 years. You know, that's 46 years of playing together. You know, as tight as can be, but, you know, I don't know Brian John, 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 can do three songs, we'll do a farewell show on TV, which you guys are billionaires anyway. Yeah. Who cares? You know, it's like, you know, they, they, they,
Starting point is 00:40:43 well, how real do you think of the sound loss thing is being, I mean, you played for years? Well, my question is, this is all I thought about. And this is just because this is my favorite band of all time. In my mind, I was thinking, and this is just my insanity. They did the new record a year ago, rocker 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, he goes, look, I'm 65 right now. Let's do this one. Malcolm's out. 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.
Starting point is 00:41:27 They go, we'll do the big. That's amazing. That's insane. That's insane. Yeah. How many dates do you know? Roughly. 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. 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 keep going. And I maybe he went, man, what do you mean? Keep going. We just, let's just see, you know, because they dropped these dates out of nowhere last month. And people were surprised like, what are these dates? Her own I went we're like this is crazy. They're playing again. I thought they were
Starting point is 00:42:08 it was over, you know, so maybe Angus was like we're gonna do more dates all the way through 2017 or something. He was like, no man. And then maybe they just said, all right, well, you know, we're gonna keep going and I saw a toilet just got announced. I saw it. I didn't really react to it. But I thought about it throughout the day. And I might this clear to be a fucking kickass show. Yeah. Oh, this could be a bust out. And I guarantee it's gonna be a kickass show. Let me guess the one. Hit me. Def Wepard Arya Speedwagon. That one. Okay. okay. Bad company, and Joe Walsh. Oh yeah, right? Oh, they're playing like the Greek or something.
Starting point is 00:42:48 That's not. That's gonna be fucking crazinessly. Like that, that's like a slow finger in the ass. Like people are like, ah, but there's some people that I'm going. Oh, fuck it, let's go to that. Just bad company alone. If that guy could still pipe it out.
Starting point is 00:43:03 Yeah. That guy could still pipe it out and they could still play like motherfucker. So just that alone. Never mind Joe Wash 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 going This is this could be a dangerous fucking show that you sit there and go, wow. And then they all play together at the end. They were be sick.
Starting point is 00:43:30 No, I'm just saying that they did that. 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. But you look at the Hollywood bowl schedule. Oh, phenomenal. You look at the garden schedule. It Oh, no, you look at the Garden schedule. It's for now. That's some great fucking bands. And there's a lot of
Starting point is 00:43:49 stuff I don't know, but you know, for you to be it just adds to something I thought I was into serious Chris Cornell is coming back. Yeah, I saw that. Now when is he coming? I don't know. They just announced it yesterday.. Yeah, he's doing like Santa Barbara bowl. That place is great. You ever go there? No. Oh, fuck. It's so weird. You walk up through like a neighborhood,
Starting point is 00:44:11 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 30s or something, you know I saw black crow's oasis there Unbelievable I saw my morning jacket there and it is beautiful you gotta look at that thing online Man, it's a miniature miniature Hollywood Bowl really small and badass
Starting point is 00:44:40 But that's a great place to see shows man. It's worth the drive you 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. I love it yesterday. Yeah. And I'm trying to make it my weekly thing just so it's like a hobby for me. Like 330, I have to pick the baby up with 530, so 330 gives me an hour over there. I'll meet you over there. And now when I get home, you know, whatever, put the arms away and then I sit there and jerk off on the arms, that I bought pretty much, you know. So once we got to the studio, my friend Damon gave me a turn table for Christmas. So great.
Starting point is 00:45:17 I said, this is the time. 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 a time and place. She goes, I'm surprised you don't go down there and play more music I agree you know with this people the daytime you know in the building here yeah I have this on full fucking speed that all day long I'd be down here with loud music spoken bones that's your office man this is it this is this is your back to basics office fucking. So I made a list of albums that I really wanted to get.
Starting point is 00:45:48 And every time I go to either Meba or me, where else I couldn't find them. Yeah. And if I did find them, they were fucking off the charts expensive. Yeah. And not and not clean. No, I went to Amazon yesterday. Lee and I were on the phone. And I went to Amazon yesterday to find animals. Pink Floyd, they want 79 bucks. Yeah. You know, for, uh, it's rare, but it's like, uh, like new for 80 fucking bucks. And one part of me wants to pay it, but the other part of me is like,
Starting point is 00:46:16 Joey, you bought the sound for 795. I saw when yesterday, man, for 25, I'll grab it for you at freak. What's it called? Freak. This is another great record store of Ventura Boulevard, man, for 25, I'll grab it for you. At Freak, what's it called? Freak, this is another great record store of Ventura Boulevard in Sherman Oaks. This place, all their records are phenomenal. And I've been going there since, like, for years because they used to have, like, here it is,
Starting point is 00:46:40 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 That whole album is fucking phenomenal So I just wanted to get back into something. I wanted to get back into something that was Real important to me. Yeah, well, I was young. I wanted to get back into something that was real
Starting point is 00:47:05 important to me. What I was young, and I tried to pitch a show called Beyond the Sleep, but it's really tough to pitch a music show. Because you have to reach out to the writers and all these companies, they would tell 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. So it was like a fucking nightmare like in the courts and petitions and I like to listen just stay away from the music. So the only other way we could do it is on the podcast just to sit with a particular album and whatever. You know man I go through music like you Dean
Starting point is 00:47:44 every week I got a new mind fuck. Every make something new inspires me. Yesterday I'm on the car, I'm on fucking Magnolia Boulevard, waiting to go into the coffee shop and outstanding comes on by the gap band. And I don't know, shit my pants, I haven't heard something that good and fucking he is, like just that's real old school black music I think those black motherfuckers worried about diverse in the Oscars didn't give a fuck now They were getting their dick sucked. They were smoking weed and they were doing what they love they didn't care that that what the Fucking you talking about do what you love and that overcomes the racism. There's a fuck another guy going
Starting point is 00:48:21 Hey, yeah, when you're on the top. Oh, no, you know, it's so great This is what I love about doing podcasts and sometimes you have an idea of What you're gonna talk about and you're going to something else and it's even stronger than one of the Pops and messes that you wanted you know when I talked to Dean this this morning We want to talk about San Jose and music and the AC DC thing Which I didn't know that were DC thing, which I didn't know that were your favorite bands. So I didn't mean to disrespect them. Oh, no, no, no, but you're not disrespecting them. It's just proper.
Starting point is 00:48:50 There's a point that, you know, like, life music is fucked up once you get ego in the house and money. You know, I can, I bet if you go to every fucking musician and go, you know, whatever you could just go back to the first day of making music, that feeling of being in the fucking garage, you know, you know, what's his name's on tour with Peter Gabriel. Yeah, yeah. Sting is on tour. Peter Gabriel, it's covered at the ball. It's, I want to go there and assassinate something like that's the hatred I've developed from over the years because you could see as ego leaking out of his pores. I tried to watch him a few months ago late night talk show. Yeah he came up there with a ukulele. You know when you know
Starting point is 00:49:38 like it's like you can I talk to you for a second just because he's a little homo friend that lived next to you and get in a way to say that's cool Yeah, I think cool. I'm sure I'll be able to fucking you can live out smacking next time Fucking you guys and then they don't like you well on tour with it. You know about that. Yeah smag them with the girls You know guys and he thinks like well, I'm gonna play some cuz my friends tell me and then actually some people go up Don't you know what kind of jerk off some go up to them. Yes, man. Oh my god. That was the most brilliant thing I said no one's not. I didn't come here to see you, ukulele. I came here to fucking see Synchronicity.
Starting point is 00:50:09 That's what I came here to fucking here, okay? Not know you were the ukulele and three little white dudes that need testosterone shots once, I don't need this shit. And that's why he aggravates me to know and to think that at one time today, I picked up one of the rounds, but it wasn't the one I wanted. I got ghost in the machine. I want to go to the machine and synchronicity
Starting point is 00:50:29 and the first one. This was something different. They didn't have what I was looking for. And it was funny. That's what I thought of. I go, what a fucking band that I was in love with and they broke my heart. Like, they was like, they're a woman that you fucking, listen man, synchronicity and 84. Oh, yeah. Took me from one place to another, uh, play wrapped around my fingerly. Oh, man. That song, as always, beat me up emotionally and physically. Like, when I hear it, five or the ten times, I switch it.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Yeah. The other five times, It's such a beautiful jam But it's such a part of such a beautiful album. It's incredible It's a fucking incredible and I can't find out either. I got with that on me Been left a rock and go for 30 and I come with me man come with me This weekend in San Jose Let's just end the fucking aggravation. Yeah, I do it with man.

You know what one kills me walking on the moon. That one

Starting point is 00:54:12 Oh wow. August 4th. 79. 80. Oh, back in Blacktor. Second show, second night. They opened up in Philadelphia. Wow.
Starting point is 00:54:22 And the second night was at the Paladium in New York City. And they were tremendous and Angus was tremendous. The whole night was tremendous. I remember Kurt DeLorenzo, but I remember going home. Like in those days, in my world, you didn't go to the opening act. Yeah, that's right. You're correct. You got boot off. You didn't go to the opening act. In my world, You didn't go see the opening act and in my world There was actually great opening acts, you know the one that they said you had to go see was when they said go see black Sabbath the dudes in front of them tremendous guitar player But the word out was this deaf leopard had opened up for somebody a year before and people like death leopard's opening up from you got to go
Starting point is 00:55:05 and I went and they played 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 a go and buy the fucking album and when I put on this album, go and buy the fucking album and when I put on this album it destroyed me you know just uh... until 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 of 81 it came alive. People were talking about songs, you go to parties.
Starting point is 00:55:46 By February, people were putting this fucking out. This album was, and by April and May of that year, when I was a senior in high school, no matter whose car you went into, they had high-end drive. Yeah, absolutely. And how we played this lead on the turntable, or do we play it on YouTube?
Starting point is 00:56:03 I think YouTube, for better or not. If you do would be better in here, but if you wanted to crank it on that I wouldn't blame you, would you? What do you do YouTube? Yeah, that's due YouTube for them, you know, I don't know if that, I don't know if you. Let's see, let me look at the record
Starting point is 00:56:15 or a Cricard, is that you know? That's the most important thing. So what's on, what's on, do you want to play off of it? I want to play Mirror and Mirror. Okay. Oh, ladies, trains, take a look at this album cover. Oh, well, not anybody's here, but the first of all, the most crazy thing about this record,
Starting point is 00:56:34 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 a singer, but this was a guy, Pete Willis, who to me was the king of the band. He played a hammer explorer and he was absolutely crushing. You've got Steve Clark, who later died from alcohol. And then you got Rick Allen, who lost an arm
Starting point is 00:57:04 and a crash, his this band a crazy curse And then you've got the bass player a savage Rick savage and then of course Joe Elliott But this is the original lineup and they're from chef field England and I went to chef field one time and I couldn't believe it Sheffields an old steel town like Detroit and of it, Sheffields, 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. They're kids, man, they're fucking kids.
Starting point is 00:57:34 They lived at their mom's houses and shit. 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 Pyramanian hysteria and even now. This album has always been like a,
Starting point is 00:57:54 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. No one blows. No worries. No worries. No worries. No worries. Not in blow. No worries.
Starting point is 00:58:05 No worries. 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. It was. It really was.
Starting point is 00:58:20 And those, those gents and triaxles and a Camaro, that speaker that was out right around this time with the fucking auto reverse cassette players finally it play the whole thing and flip it on its own. It's very funny because July of 82 I robbed his dude. Right. Yeah. Whatever his name is, is not important. The scam was I used to bring stone TVs And he always give me a gram of blow right just one night. We're gonna see a Aussie without Randy Rhodes with the other guy Brad Gillis with Brad Gillis at the metalheads and I got a twin-it-tron of family the box and he got all cocky on me
Starting point is 00:58:58 He said I'm not giving you the fucking I'm not giving you the fucking gram of blow giving you the fucking, I'm not giving you the fucking where I'm a blow. So, you know, in typical Joey Deist, I got fucking furious and I vowed I was gonna get this motherfucker. It took me 10 months to get him. But I got him. And even after he fucking, I go over there and buy blow
Starting point is 00:59:23 from him and have conversations when he was funny But I knew eventually I was in a cash in my chip with this guy Yeah, and I finally got him in July of 82 when did fucking Rick when did Randy Rhodes died? He died I think in 81 Look it up Side two you want Joey 82 and Florida Randy Rose died in 82. Oh, it's two days is the anniversary. Wow March, right? March 10th. Wow. Well celebrate up there. Yeah, man. So
Starting point is 01:00:03 Mark's 10th year. Wow. Well celebrate up there. Yeah, man. So This guy had beat me and I waited 10 or 11 months to nail this motherfucker and one that I nailed this motherfucker on a Friday night Yeah, with this dude. I made a mistake that I nailed this guy with a dude was a rat It was too late when I put two into the gather when I went to give him half the coke and he goes, no, no, no, no, I saw yours. I'm never gonna say no. I go, God damn it. Oh, oh.
Starting point is 01:00:33 You know, I started, I started snorting when I was snorting when I was snorting when I'm, and then right away he had to go home, he had to curve you. So that didn't make a long story short. We snore to cook that whole weekend. My friend that we had out for two nights, he had to go to some school that Monday morning. And he was out with us.
Starting point is 01:00:56 Since Saturday night we had him out. I mean, Saturday straight. 18 years old, we hooked up on a Saturday night. I robbed the guy on a Friday. We stayed at all night till 6am on the drone down the shore and back. I wasn't fed by any afternoon. I got up before 8am did what I had to do. I wasn't gonna go out about 10.30am my little gumbas called me and we went out and we stayed out from
Starting point is 01:01:17 Saturday, Snort and Coke all day Sunday. To Sunday morning, Monday morning. This is two nights of Snort and Coke and there's still a bucket left of it by rob from the sky And we're selling little deals to people again. Come here. Yeah, thanks.

Starting point is 01:01:53 So we gotta go see a teacher. I know mr. T and we got to clean this shit up So we knock on T's door. He sees this is like what you fucking crazy or cooked up But the moral of the story is we're driving T knew we had blow Here we are 18 years old. We just graduated high school. T gets in the car with us He does two lines of coke and he's like, what the fuck is going on? I like it figures in the background. Yeah cool woman Cool ice
Starting point is 01:02:22 woman cool lies You know It's got I mean read the songs out to them and tell great the songs Okay, all right. Well first of all that's one of the greatest intros of rock let it go, you know And then it just tells you the mood. Yeah, it just tells you what you're going to get involved into Which a lot of people don't fucking do no more. All right the second song is lady strange. Nope another hit and Right another hit and run tremendous again. Yeah next one high and dry Jesus Joseph and Mary Then bring it on the heart break. Oh shit the big ballot then switch 625,
Starting point is 01:03:05 which is like an instrumental. And then you go to side two, you got bring it on the heart break, oh, there's a remix on here, then you got me running. You got me running, you got me running. Maybe that one, oh. Just fucking give me the songs.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Then Lady Strange. I don't wanna know lip sync. Lady Strange, yeah, yeah. On through the night, mirror, mirror. Looking to my eyes, you know that. Hit it Lee, little mirror, mirror. Yeah. It's too much, this jam is too fucking much.
Starting point is 01:03:39 Oh, so good. I can't tell you how many fucking lines and eight balls of blood I did to this jam. Broke these songs, no one wrote these songs for them. This isn't an American idol and shit. These guys were in a garage and slugged out these fucking tunes that are classics right now that people go crazy over. I mean, you know, that high-end dry song, a band would die to have a tune like that right
Starting point is 01:04:02 now. You know, just one of those and they got like nine killers on there. These eight killers aren't there. Eight killers on there, you know? And they wrote those at fucking like 17, 18, 19, 20 years old. It's insane to me. It's insane. And the singing, his singing is so great for like 20 years old.
Starting point is 01:04:22 He's not like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, it just sounds incredible. This was a masterpiece. Yeah. And the one afterward, you know, the one before this was great. Yep. It was sensational like, you know,
Starting point is 01:04:35 but it was a good album for the first time. I like wasted. I love wasted. But this one here fucked me up completely. I mean, I fell in love with the sound for maybe three, four years, and whenever I hear different songs, now they never played marijuana on the radio. Now they always play marijuana on the fucking heart.
Starting point is 01:04:52 They always try to crazy. Now, who are the people around them on the back of the, let's just artwork, you know, just cousins of yours. Yeah. Yeah. That's it. It's just, you know, in those days, yes, they were reading about, I called Lee and I told
Starting point is 01:05:08 him to Wikipedia, wish you were here. And I go, look at the preparation they put into the packaging. Yeah. Like, they put as much, like they were talking about, they took pictures to signify the agents that they greedy, they sell their soul, and they got them white and on fire on the Warner brothers lot. You know, they just pink Floyd put his much thought into the fucking album as just to fuck with people. Turn that around. You said something. Yeah. The guy's gonna dive into an empty pool. Yeah. You know, many times you look at that and you're like, what does this mean?
Starting point is 01:05:40 Yeah. Is he getting hung upside down? Why is he high and fucking dry? It's this, I mean, this is kind of artwork right here. I would love to just have in my house hanging, you know, because it's something, it's very, you know, it's almost kind of looks like old, like craft work kind of artwork, you know, that band craft work, just, it's just really crazy. Like, what is this? Which is even cooler when your kid, you're just looking at it, go, what does that mean?
Starting point is 01:06:10 You know, I thought I was me at two in the morning, with, you know, on a quailoode with blow, looking at this going, while they looking up and he's jumping down. In the logo. They never changed the logo. It's spectacular. From day one, they got a fucking crushing logo
Starting point is 01:06:29 really is a different world from music yeah how much thought and because they wanted you to stop and buy this that's right that's right they wanted you to walk by and fucking buy this and and it had to be a decision all five members members of the fucking band. Look at this. You know, we were talking about this right here. Look at the only woman to read this. Go away down, scroll down to whatever the fuck you've gone. Packaging. Yes. Packaging. You know, wish you were here. We're getting my glasses on. Oh, wow. Look at that. They had the dude. He went out on tour with them in 74. Scott Jorgensen, Storm Torgensen, at a company in the band they sent me for a 20-year service, a total of a million of the lyrics. Eventually deciding that the song was
Starting point is 01:07:15 worn in general, concerned with unfiltered presence rather than barrett's illness. This theme of absence was reflected in the ideas produced by the long- hours spent brainstorming with the band. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Sophone. Dorgensen had noted that the Roxy Muse's country life was sold in an opaque green cellophane sleeve, centering the cover image. And he copied the idea, considering the artwork I wish you were here here and a black colored shrink wrap, therefore making the album are absent. The concept behind Welcome to the machine,
Starting point is 01:07:52 and we have it here with the bag. That's killer. Well, the guys were actually on fire. So right here, you walk by this, and you've got a black fucking bag. That's it. And the concept was behind a walk-in-to-the-machine and have us get to the use of a handshake or often empty gesture. And Gordy Hardy designed the stick of containing the Alam's logo on two mechanical hands
Starting point is 01:08:17 right there. Yeah. Fucking genius. Yeah. Fucking genius, man. Mechanical handshake logo would also appear on the labels of the vinyl album this time black and blue black and the Alms cover image was inspired by the idea that people tend to conceal their true feelings 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 to stop men were used. I mean, you know, a photograph was taken on a Warner Brothers lot in Los Angeles.
Starting point is 01:08:51 Initially the wind was blowing the rural direction of the flames were forcing to run those fights, 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.
Starting point is 01:09:03 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. 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 what I'm saying? I have a Catholic. What are you gonna do? But we don't get that no more. Now all I got to do is go on iTunes, click a thing, and I got an email
Starting point is 01:09:34 saying we took $2.99 out of your fucking account and 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, are probably charging them hundreds of pounds. Like the guy designed that logo.
Starting point is 01:10:02 What do you think they charged up? Lebedo designed that logo. Oh, it's 10,000. Yeah. Yeah. 10,000 sure made. Yeah. You know, they weren't rich, but they thought they were going to get rich.
Starting point is 01:10:12 Yep. And the logo lasted for fucking 11. Oh, yeah. I had the guy on that wrote this ACDC book called The Brothers Young, the guys that built ACDC. And 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
Starting point is 01:10:48 stickers and lighters and fucking beers and everything. That fucking logo, you know, they got it free. It's crazy, right? Just, 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. Go in there. You know, when I look at a picture, I just look at a picture.
Starting point is 01:11:15 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. Unless played the other wrong, you know, because we don't know my mom to hear it, you know, it's It's just a big part of my life. I wish We could find the way to do a show we could do this on a weekly Basis without the fear of getting sued if I can get 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
Starting point is 01:11:50 you go, you know, what I do is a child, I had 300 homes, what I do with my song, but then bucks, and I got out of the car. Let me go build my thing up again. Yeah. Make little notes. And there's two booths, there's just you like music anyway. I like music, man. Yeah. 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 what play music I don't know yeah I find that that's why I've done this podcast really because it's like there's very few people that I can really, really fucking talk to music about. It's like you, Marin, Burr. We all love music and we're just fucking, I think it's the arrow we just grew up in.
Starting point is 01:12:34 It just, it just ran parallel with our insanity. Give me a favor. Missing person is mental hot scots. Oh. The other day I'm scrolling and I see this on YouTube. Oh yeah. And I, and I and I also is I get smacked In the fucking face mental hops are missing persons to the noun called destination him whatever the fuck it was Yeah, but before they released destination them
Starting point is 01:12:57 They did we're everybody else did the business they released an EP and I'm that EP was a song called mental hops guys That to me was one of their best songs. She couldn't sing them real lives. She couldn't do fucking dick. Dale Bozier. Yeah. Now that you look at the husband could play the shit out of the drum. Crusher.
Starting point is 01:13:13 But I felt was watching Basio. I started, I got hooked on, you know, Frank's garage and all the Frank's at the spot. Yeah. And then after, this was on the plane. Well, and then after Zappa, I got hooked on something else that was so obscure. Again, I hadn't heard in years, but you don't have enough time to listen to music. That's the problem.
Starting point is 01:13:33 I don't have with the child and the podcast. You know, listen to music. You have to put the album on, roll the joint, put the earphones on, bang it. And you need an hour and a half, at least one day of fucking you know one hour Tell them all that shit, but I live on 15 minutes play this shit. We listen to this shit Every once in a while you got to go off the deep end and just talk music man Like I said people should do this more. We just don't have the time of my a lot of people don't even love this shit You know you got to really be into this shit
Starting point is 01:14:03 We don't know what the fuck we're talking about is looking at me all scared. I get the most tweets when I do this show. Sure. Because we talk about music and then just like, man, I love when you guys talk about music. I mean, the Twitter is on fire over. I picked up an album today by mistake, but I did not go to the store even looking for. Marin, when I shot Marin a couple weeks ago, he told me he went on a Saturday and he picked a sister up to this album, which is Cars Can Deal. Oh, okay, I actually did. Which is brilliant. Yeah, that's another 82-81 type album. Crushing. Oh, 79! Yeah. 79! But my freshman year in high school, an album came out that was fucking just super fucking super. Oh, the car is dead.
Starting point is 01:14:51 Unbelievable that man. There you go. Oh, they're fucking first out. Oh, like listen man, it was Ted Nugent, it was black Sabbath, it was ACDC, it was all this stuff. At the same time, I'm getting into this, just gonna get that out, I'm gonna get it at the same time. I'm getting into this, uh, a body of mine. Gives me, uh, what the fuck did he give me? He gave me like, one of this hours. Yeah, yeah, listen to this. And at first, I didn't know what the fuck they he give me? He gave me like, one of this albums. Yeah. And he's like, yeah, listen to this. And at first, I didn't know what the fuck they were talking about.
Starting point is 01:15:30 Yeah. And I'll tell you, I think the biggest one, I don't know if it's the biggest mistake they made or who the fuck am I talking about people with mistakes. Thanks. you
