You know they had two thousand seats, but you know this it was a movie theater with two thousand seats
And I went over there by myself and I got tickets for twenty bucks and I went in and they came out of the fucking motorcycle

That motherfucker pulled off with a motorcycle and during the center he whipped out a whip
Yeah, I started just whipping it was whipping the tank I was I left

those days the bus dropped me off on Boulevard east where I got mugged where I tried to mug the
gay guy I think it was gay was a pervert and he beat the shit on me and I walked up that block
and I got into an altercation that night I got into an altercation I got into an altercation that night. I got into an altercation.
I got into an argument with a guy about a broad.
I had bumped into somebody who was cheating.
I bumped into a guy that was cheating with a girl.
That was a friend of a friend of mine.
And I walked past him and I thought about it.
I was by the book that I didn't like that shit at all. And I walked back and and I thought about it. I was by the book that like I didn't like that shit at all.
And I walked back and I went off on her.
And I remember how scared I was that I was going to fight this kid.
Yeah.
But I didn't give a fuck.
I called her a bitch or fucking whore.
You know, he's in fucking a bar right now working to take you out during the week.
Yeah.
And here you are during this.
And the next day they turned it into like two days later, but the time I got to high school
that Monday, they had turned it into like two days later but the time I got to high school that Monday they had turned it into almost
domestic violence and it really wasn't like they was like I pushed her I didn't
push this chick I just went back and I go you know what you should be ashamed
to yourself and you you're a fucking whore I mean I just I had a little
I had a little oh I had a little coke left in my system and that girl didn't
talk to me
For maybe two years her and the guy broke up. Yeah, she went to the guy and told him something different
I look went to the guy and looked at him as I go this is what really happened. They were holding hands
I saw them don't fucking tell me in fact when I and I until this day that guy that I went on it's still around
And when I go back every once along he posts something on
Facebook type of cute and I just shout him to fuck down
He still hangs out with some of my friend's name is Tommy nobody remembers that though
I'll like I just went off and then years later that dumb chick
Came up to me was cold out. It was really cold out and I had a and she was drinking vodka and iced tea
This is in high school.
This is how pissed off I still am.
She was in Fort Lauderdale.
And whenever I do the Miami improv,
they threaten me that they're all gonna come down
and see me and I tell them no Christians allowed.
Fuck you bitches and they stop, they won't come.
But this dummy one night, I just get out there.
I just get out, it's gotta be 10 after eight.
And I see her with like three other girls
and I'm with another guy and I'm like guys going we're gonna be and she had a bottle of vodka and a nice tea
By this time I still hate this girl like I had no at this age. I just hated you. Yeah, if you did something stupid
There was no I'm sorry
Yeah, she was done and she came up to me and
She was like that. She said something. She was trying to be nice and I go, what's
that on your jacket? I don't know you were chili this time and I did something like, I
don't know you were chili. And when I walked away about three minutes later, she threw
one of the iced teas on me. Just fucking threw it on my new jacket and she said, I go,
fuck this bitch. I saw her, she kept drinking and she kept putting an iced tea on the
floor, but that time the iced tea was a little frozen and I went behind the titto and I took the iced tea
And I poured it over her fucking head and I saw the icicles freezing up on the head and she came back
And we didn't talk till 82
And then I see the coke dealers out and everything was alright. I'm sorry. I'm sorry
Yeah, when you see somebody at the dealers. Yeah, once you see somebody at the dealers house
Yeah, everything's forgiven. Yeah, you know what you weren't supposed to see me here. I was supposed to see you there
What's up Lisa? Yeah, what a fuck you bitch? I've been here, but I watch something you told me to watch it
I watch that already laying on how it's done
I wanted to get your opinion on two things first thing was I
two things. First thing was I've dealt with some people who have been addicts in my life and a lot of them are masters of talking their way out of trying to convince people that it's not as bad as it
seems and at that point already had only been clean for like seven months. If you look it up it's like
already I don't know. Already this heroin is something. It's like 30 minutes long, 40 minutes long.
Where do you like that too?
Where can you talk your way out of anything?
Really?
Anything.
And when I got in this situation,
I was talking my way up just so I could get high.
You have no idea when somebody squashes your high.
Like when you have plans about getting high
in somebody's city, you have plans.
Sure, you don't want nobody to know how deep you really are.
You would like, just, I don't, I have no musical background at all.
Yeah. So just from someone who, you would think, oh, I could talk if I couldn't hear.
So I, like, I never thought about that. I always wondered why it was such a big deal.
Sometimes if the band's too loud, you'll sing flatter sharp, you know?
And then it just sounds horribly like this guy sounds horrible
But really they can't hear this self
Does that happen in comedy is there like no you don't it doesn't matter if you can hear yourself
Yeah, cuz you're not you're not you're not going up. You don't want to fucking hear you
You're going up against instruments that are in tune, you know, okay. I'm gonna see
My first thoughts it's you know? Oh, okay. I'm gonna go on to see my first
nonsense. It had to be the Rolling Stones with Farron. Yeah. And the
singer from Farron, I forget what his name was. Lou Graham.
Lou Graham. tremendous. He sounded great live. He's unbelievable.
At that show I saw in whatever in the eighth grade. And then
Foco came up there. And they jiggered.
And they did something that I accepted from them
in the early on.
I was such a...
Yes, that I was playing ball with Mercy.
Yeah.
And I noticed that if the ball fell out of whack,
Mercy didn't like that.
What do you mean?
Mercy wanted it to go from me to her to the mom.
If I threw the ball at Mercy and she dropped it, she wouldn't allow
me to pick it up again. It would just keep going. She didn't want me to throw it at it again.
It was really weird. Like should I ostentatist? She would know. She was by the book.
Oh, she was by the book. And I noticed that when I was a young kid, I was a fucking nerd
to my east of driving my mom crazy with that by the boat shit. Yeah. Everything in my world
was like, the cops said that you're not allowed to turn right. Who gives a fuck but the cops and I'm telling you, I'm a, you know, I was one of those
jerk balls.
And I went to see the stones and they're one of the first bands that did not sound at
all how I expected them to sound.
I like shattered.
Yeah.
You know, shattered, I'm saying that live.
You're like, what the fuck is that garbage?
Keith Richards is everywhere.
He's high on something, you know.
But as the concept progressed,
I think they did wild horses.
Yeah.
And I started crying.
Yeah.
Like I started crying.
And the other chick. Oh
Yeah, those two lives. Yeah with the saxophone
Yeah, yeah, yeah, is one of the most brilliant stuff you'll ever see if you got a chance to see the
Well the saxophone guy died Big kids he died which was he fucking took out like the isn't when you fucking
Thirteen and like I comes out with a saxophone. Yeah, you want to put a gun to your head?
Yeah, yeah, I want him. I'm saying I don't know what's this fucking saxophone coming from what I comes out with a saxophone, you want to put a gun to your head. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I want him saying, I don't know.
What is this fucking saxophone coming from?
What am I seeing?
Like I was a saxophone.
Yeah, it's not rock.
It's not rock.
And he sold me.
Hey man, Pinkfoot, you know, they use the sax on like dark side
and all that.
And you're just going like, well, this is fucking incredible.
Incredible.
They turn me around.
The first 20 minutes of the stone that was unasset,
I was young, it was one of my early concerts.
I didn't really know what to expect.
And by the end, when I left there,
I realized who the fuck the Rolling Stones were.
Like, all that shit about the world's greatest rock
and roll band, I don't know if that was accurate,
but they were up there.
Like they sold me, I'm not being perfect. And then, but they were up there. Yeah. Like they sold me on not being perfect.
And then like the song means the same.
First time I listened to that, I'm like I'm not listening to that junk no more.
Yeah, yeah.
That's junk leads there.
And one day I put that thing on and it was like the only thing I had to listen to.
And again, I saw the brilliance.
That's why when people come to me and say, well, let's Eppelin or whatever I go, you know what? Yes. And no, but I just want you to do
something before you make that statement again. Listen to the song, man, it's the same.
Listen to the guitars on like a days, they're confused. Oh, days, and something
else. And then get back to me. You can't steal that. Yeah. That night couldn't
be stolen. And like I said this before, I heard a great
interview. If somebody could acquire it and send it to me, it was Robert Plant on the
King Biscuit Flower Hour. This is a great radio show from the set. I think it's still
on. I know. I met the guy, the guy said this is the creator of the King Biscuit Flower
Hour. I was a kid. I'm not a big radio guy. Yeah. I must have been bored. And I listened to Robert
Plant describe the shows at the garden. Yeah. And I'm, again, being brought to emotion going,
Jesus Christ. You know, almost think I'm not being done right this morning. I was listening to
UFO. Oh, God. I love it. Dr. Dr. Oh, the other one phenomenon. That's the name of the out yeah, yeah, yeah, what's the songs on phenomenon?

people don't 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
We would jerk off all over it. Yeah, I didn't like it. It scared me. I heard mice up there
Oh, yeah, I think it's our fucking scared
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.
And then I had a bathroom in the hallway, but the bedroom I moved into, whoever had the
house before, it was a girls room.
Pink carpet, mirrors everywhere.
Barbie room. Pink carpet mirrors everywhere. Barbie room. You know how many times people walked in my room
and walked into the mirror?
Because the mirror was, it looked like a huge room.
You kept the pink carpet?
I kept the pink carpet.
I put a little wolf on the floor,
like this dead wolf that was like a fluffy wolf.
Somebody gave me 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 him and he wasn't allowed in my upstairs like he would come to the living room
Let's go to the music now. We can't go upstairs my mom don't let boys in my room. You got the speakers up there
The speakers in the stereo up there
I had like a Jimmy. I had a Led Zeppelin poster
That Ray Canella the guy who calls in here the podcast that called a couple weeks ago
He had and it was Led Zeppelin on stage, but it was shot backwards. Oh, yeah
Was that it was a connect design them and all this shit. I had a picture of Julius Irving
serving. Oh, dog. Shay. I had that long one on the wall. Oh, yeah. That long one. There's this converse
right there. There's real. Yeah. Yeah. And he was still playing.
He played for the sixers, but at that time, they didn't pay
the sixers. So it was like a generic costume that he had a
wear like they took the sixes 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.
And you know what, what album I still had now, I still remember having the Beach Boys.
Oh yeah, which one?
Round, round, get it, round, get it, round, get it.
Well, the hit.
Read it, round, that one.
I still remember some of my first 20 fucking albums.
Yeah.
Like the first five, the 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 Prye was basically the first album.
I bought it.
I don't know if it'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
death pole. I told him, don't go down there messing with them Jews without no money. You
know, I forgot about that. Yeah. And I had that one in Bicentennial, Niggas. Oh, yeah.
And I had to admit. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I could say how to be hidden. And I had, I remember
having the Beatles wide out. I had the Beatles help. Yeah. I had a...
Okay, I was like a Michael Jackson, too. Yeah, yeah.
So I had the last two Jackson albums,
moving violation,
and the best of Michael Jackson's
who Miss Pat argued with me at that album didn't exist.
And I was like, 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.
I that room was and I was telling me that what I would do is at night,
I play records in my fucking bedroom, but in the daytime, I had a little window.
I could play them on my mom's living room stereo. It was just kick ass.
It was all those old school box of controllers with it. Oh, yeah with the 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 guys one fucking piece of furniture like this table. Yeah.
This how long it was. Yeah. You serious? So what's the
thing to be okay? And it went against the wall. So on that side was the turn table.
Yep. And this side was the control for the radio also yeah the turntable and
a track player 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 those things will work
to the fucking end of time and I know people have I guarantee if you go on eBay
or you know garage sales they're out I guarantee if you go on eBay or 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.
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 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.
Jesus, I just remember something that's so sad and it was so sad to me for a long time talking
about turntables. So the kid's name was Rene. Rene was
Puerto Rican and when he was moving into the building, when he was moving into
the house. Yeah. He went to pick up more stuff and whatever they were moving
from and we robbed the house. And mid mid move. So Rene and his dad and the
mother moved out of that. They were like running from credit credit
isn't stuff. But for some reason, the 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. Eat something. I have to get the chicks up here.
Yeah. It has to be the cool guy on the block. And on the corner was this place on four
call five corners. It's still there on a
plane's place. Yeah. And the word on the street was you go
and get a fish hysteria. I think your hands on something.
No, my hands. Oh, that's over there. I'm not worried about
which in the day, a fish hysteria, it was like tremendous.
This is before Blaupunk. Yeah. People started saying, oh, you have a fisher,
I have a Blaupunk.
I buy components, man.
And if there was 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 home school, okay?
I come from the thing that once your A-Track broke,
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 and okay, now I gotta buy Alms.
I got the Almen Brothers live in the film
or East of A-Track and now I gotta buy fucking Alms.
So I said enough is enough.
So I went down to fucking
Fischer whatever the call 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 bucks00 bucks, 13, $1500 bucks.
Yeah, it's a very stereo too.
It's for something for school.
And I went and I financed it.
And when I hit the number, I paid it all off.
Oh, they let a 12 year old kid find in something.
My mom co-signed it.
Oh, okay.
My mom had a co-signed it.
Your mom has a co-signed shit.
But at least you made payments.
You had a walk down there.
They gave you a payment book.
They gave you a payment book.
Yeah.
And you had a walk down there every Friday and paid the $15 like a man. You know, when you had a walk down there. 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, and 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.
But that stereo sat in that fucking room.
God knows that that stereo is today and broke my heart because I had a
Take you know when you have it tuned for you like that you buy a turntable after a years to the turntable gets to see your
Your style and how you dropped a record and you learn and you get the needle right and
It's it was a sad it was sad thing in my life like three is not having that turntable
well, you know my my best friend they had the It was a sad thing in my life. Like three years, not having that turntable.
Well, you know my best friend, they had the Morance.
And I told Marin this story.
And it was basically the blue collar Macintosh.
Like Macintosh was so much money,
but the Morance and my buddy's dad bought it
and he had the Morance 2275 and a turntable, a pioneer turntable,
and these speakers and we'd play a high-weight hell on it.
And a couple years back, I bought a Morance 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.
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, Morance.
Morance, yeah, man.
And it had the blue lighting and the and the
Moran's 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. The other ones you had to turn
and they're all funky. This one just hit the the wheel and it just
shhhh. And man, I got it now in my house. It is to describe me. It is. Weird to describe. It is.
You know, I became nerdish about it.
But I was even buying magazines.
You know me a long time ago.
I don't buy magazines.
Yeah.
I was buying stereo magazines.
Hi, five mags.
Funny I was watching vinyl, yeah, that's a video.
How is it?
Vinyl is an interesting show.
Okay.
It's interesting show.
This week they had like a slime, the family, stone type, mother, five time. I's interesting show. This week they have like a slime the family stone type
mother. I saw the picture. Yeah. You know, if you like music and you like
doing blow, you know, I know that craziness. This is the show for you. You know, it's
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 more on Yeah. But it's entertaining. It's entertaining to more like me because it's me.
It's my time.
I was a kid.
All that.
Last week they sang a song on there two weeks ago that killed me.
To check that fucking heist herself.
With the pills.
With the brother.
Amy Whitehouse.
No.
Amy Whitehouse.
This is the fucking they started.
Oh, 70s or I'm sorry.
Oh, oh.
So they're doing real bands. It's like,
uh, like stories of real stuff going on. It's really weird. Like the first episode is him going into
having to talk to the Led Zeppelin. Okay. And Peter Grant is yelling on him and
as 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 like, you know, I'm not selling,
I'm not, I'm leaving you guys, I'm not gonna be,
and I'm not working with Germans.
Yeah, wow.
I don't work with fucking Germans.
They got a guy playing Peter Grant.
Yeah, but he's not really six foot six, it's 300.
He's a little short and he talks a lot.
He tries to redo that scene from,
oh from, yeah, well he's like, you know the man's out there with the posters?
Yeah, you see that there's something you're bloody content anything to the name of
his.
You're fucking man.
Yeah.
Show man.
Not my man.
Yeah, that's
I love that scene.
That's great.
And that's, you know, like we just think they go off on stage like right now sabbites
is on tour and because of their age, they do a show and they take a show off.
Yeah.
They do a show, you know, in the 80s, if you went to a concert in the 70s and the 60s, these
guys did four or five nights a week.
Nobody knew about taking care of your throat.
You had witch tales.
Yeah.
Which was that what they call, like, you know, Gargle with Soil and the Honey.
Witches.
Oh, yeah, witch, yeah.
Witch stories about the road.
Old school remedies.
But when you find a wheel singer who takes care of themselves,
like really like no smoking, no this, you know, they really put a scarf around their neck.
You don't know how much work goes into being a fucking singer. You know, when you do coke,
it destroys your throat. Completely. Destroyes your throat. You hear it as you're talking.
Yep. Do two lines of coke. There's certain purple that'll come to you after a few years and go,
I know when you're on coke because your voice changes. Totally.
What happens to it? It changes. You get a drip. Couple lines. And it numbs your voice.
Nums your vocal chords. So all those dudes that did tons of blow while they sang.
Supposedly that's that that's why I'll tell you what I tell you who had a great voice.
I never saw him when he had a great voice. When I bought a time I got to see him, his voice was shot. Over the years he's brought it back.
That's Chris going now. Oh yeah. Not to fucking slaves and bulldozers back. No.
But it's he keeps at a moderate level. Then you learn the tricks. Tell me.
Don't you learn the singers tricks? How to do smaller places? You change the
songs around to a lower voice.
Well, does it just start going or is it,
can it just go?
Can you just wake up one day and not have a voice anymore?
It can completely go.
If you don't warm up, you gotta warm up.
And as I went to the vocal doctor a couple days ago,
I've been singing like all my life.
You gotta warm up.
If you don't warm up, it's exactly like going
and playing football in the NFL.
You're gonna pull stuff and shit and what happens is,
it just gets shot and tired, you know?
And even with podcasting and doing comedy,
we're talking for hours and hours and hours,
which is, you know, when you're in regular job or whatever,
you've just talked to your coworker,
like, yeah, it was at a party and then you'd work in
and you talk, but we're talking for hours, you know,
and then imagine singing for a couple of hours,
then you're fired up, you get off stage
and you're on the tour bus talking,
talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, you got AC going,
it's drying out your voice, and then you're not
getting proper sleep,
you're eating like shit.
And next thing you know, you're...
I do add the alcohol.
Oh, it dries out your voice.
It boosts to the fucking content.
Because see, it's tough enough doing that shit.
Once you add the alcohol and the booze and the bad food
and the no sleep, Jesus fucking Christ.
Over.
That's it, it's over.
And that's basically the life you have to lead.
Yep. That's basically let's go. In 2004 and three, when I went, let's just say the Houston,
I got the Houston on a Tuesday, okay? The week started on Wednesday through Sunday.
You did all fucking one, two, four, six, seven, seven or eight shows.
That's eight hours. I ate like shit. You know, I didn't sleep because I did blow out of
the seven nights. I did blow five nights. So my sleeping was uninterrupted. You know, that
takes a toll. You know, talking to people, not sleep and eat and greasy food not to invite them
It's not even breaking the sweat. You know the time I would break a sweat those days and I was snorting coke
It was like new coke was pushing out the old coke. Yeah
I had new coke pushing out the fucking old coke and opening up the pool. Yeah, you really can't
Eventually you get sick. Yeah, another thing man another thing that people do wrong and they never know
this but you know when you hear people clearing their throat all the time where they're going
yeah that's the worst thing you can do for your voice because it bangs the vocal cords together
and as you keep doing that the bang and together creates like a callus which is known as a vocal
node and that thing gets rock hard and then you
can't sing anymore.
So these guys are constantly clearing their throat, it's just going bang, bang, bang, that's
why a lot of singers drink and tea, they're using racolas and stuff to keep their voice
you know, lubed.
So whenever I feel something weird in my throat instead of doing that, I would just drink
some water or something and it'd be you know, you fine but every time you clear it throughout you're banging the
vocal chords together and it's the worst thing you can do it's crazy.
You know it's great to talk to somebody I love music but I'm not a musician.
Right.
So I really don't know I can't have any justification at any level.
The shit I talk about music point I talk to you it's so weird the other I spoke you. And I got off the phone with you and I was so happy to talk to you the
other morning because I live vicariously through you. Yeah. I was telling my friend last
week, I had to break it down till my go, a Ville's, his name is a Ville, I don't Ville's
listening to my brother and I love you to death. Let me tell you what's going on with
me, what's going on with me is I love concert,
and I love music.
I never stopped loving music.
It was the concert experience that got on my nerves
for a while.
You know what I'm saying?
The last few concerts I went to,
I see where it became money-oriented.
It's like I tell people now,
I love doing stand-up, but this part of stand-up,
I fucking can't stand.
Yeah. I can't stand going to But this part of stand up, I fucking can't stand.
Yeah. I can't stand going to a town and having to count chairs and, you know, selling
sheathed seats and I hate all that shit. I just want to do comedy and 98% of bands that
get into it at the end of the day they'll tell you, listen, I don't give a fuck if I live
in a basement, under a basement and never have a fuck if I live in a basement under a basement
and never have any money. I just want to play music. Just that high. I would sacrifice
all that family for one K to just play live music. That's the same thing that happens.
You use a comic, you know, you do it one day and you're like, you know what, I'm quitting
my day job. And people are like, well, how are you gonna live? How are you gonna pay the rent?
Yeah.
You know, we'll figure that out.
It's four, 10 a month.
Yeah.
That's $150.
That's $102.50 a week.
I'll find that out.
I'll find that out on the street.
I can sneeze that shit.
Yeah, right.
You can sneeze that shit.
It's really crazy how you, I was at a light today.
And I was like, light today and I was like wow you know I never knew
that I would do what I'm doing with comedy today like I never knew I never
really knew yeah that's what I was like who the fuck was I that's why I made
the moves I made because you had that certain confidence to jump into it but
anyway with all all that shit I was thinking about you told me you're right
Tenorary for the week. Yeah, and you were talking about you were gonna go see this man
You're gonna see the who you're trying to scout tickets. Do I know anybody was got a ticket connection for the who you're gonna
See somebody else and it's like I live through you vicariously. I have two friends to the musicians, three of them. One guy still goes to shows.
He's a great musical guy, but when he goes to a show,
he thinks about it too much.
And it drives me crazy, but I can't lie to you.
I have the same thing.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
When I go to a show, I go to be critical.
You know, like half of me is critical.
Like with the singer.
First couple of times I went to a show,
a live show was Ted Nuget, Eros Smith, Frank Marino. Oh yeah. And I went to see something else. And I remember
that both times I left up set. Even when I went to see the stones the first time with
Farron. Farron, who was exquisite. Farron did the songs, how they were playing on the
album. So Farron did everything to the tee. When I went to see the stones,
they were completely different than what they were doing.
There were some songs like, you know,
the ballads like Beast of Bird and such,
that were to the money, a couple little off takes,
but shattered and a couple other songs
were completely different than that one I was used to.
I didn't like that.
Too fast.
Yeah, the only band I liked that did that was Led Zeppelin. Right. Yeah.
The song made it the same. They took those songs. They switched them around.
And if you're like, what the fuck is this? But I, the reason I'm talking to you about singers is
because sometimes you hear a band on your album and you go see the singer live and you're like,
oh my fucking god. This is God awful. Yeah. Yeah. This is God awful.
They had a lot of studio shit in his fucking voice, you know. Yeah. Well, I mean, you spoke about
last week, I forget the name of the awards, but Britney Spears lip-syncing. Yeah. What would
you prefer as a fan? Go to a show and see someone lip-syncing or going to see someone who just
can't see. Oh, I want it horrible. If it's going to be horrible. I don't want fake, you know?
That's why I'm there to see live.
I'm there to see live concert.
And it's a lot like racing or, you know, motorcross or something.
It's either going to be spectacular.
It's going to be a crash, you know?
But that's the live feeling of like, oh my God,
I saw those guys in the third song the guitar player was just wasted
You know whatever it is back in the day now. It's it's business now. It's business
We don't have a so man last week watching that Lee
Was because a I took time out of my day to watch that
And it smack me in the face. And number two, and
my man Hill, I saw a priest more than anybody growing up. Like I went to see him a lot.
Like I don't all the other bands. I saw DC three or four times, but priest for some reason
we always ended up going. And I don't all those times I went to see him, maybe 180 to, and he sang Solar Angels. Oh, I love it. And he sang it from the side.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Point entry to.
And he sang it from the side, and I was real close to him.
And believe it or not, I could hear the energy from his voice.
Yeah, I could hear the last flowing particles of his energy
from his voice.
And I was blown away.
When I think of music, since I'm not a huge music guy,
I think all that matters to me is music.
How important were those other aspects,
the costumes, the stage, the look?
How important was that to you as a fan?
Sounds like it was a lot of very important.
No, at that time, I walked out of town.
Oh yeah.
When I saw him play the flute.
Yeah, flute rock, I mean.
You know, I walked out of a few movies by that age.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And the guy I hung with at the time,
I still hang with him.
He's my daughter's guy.
He does not patient for that shit.
He never really was a pot smoker.
He did ask him to went home and had a freak out of his house.
He never really liked that shit.
So that's why I kind of dug him out.
It wasn't really always my scene either.
It was something like that.
I just want to smoke a joint and just go out.
And I went out with him.
I went to, you know, some of our friends went to see
Twister's sister.
Let's go down there.
We walked in and they came out and said,
Twister, fucking sister man.
And they had makeup on.
I think during the first song, we just looked at each other
and tapped out. Wow. There's an think during the first song, we just looked at each other and tapped out.
Wow.
There's an incredible document.
Documentary, yeah, on Netflix.
Woo.
About how nobody wanted them.
Oh.
And they just, it was just fucking one thing.
Yeah.
After the other, one thing after the other,
friend of mine was explaining.
And so they become in the tri-state area
before they are even a record deal in famous.
They started making thousands on the bar circuit.
No one would give them a record deal or anything.
So they're like, fuck all you guys, man.
And they just sellin' out everything all over the place and
eventually become the King's, man. And I think that's around 84 that
stay hungry record and de-ite a road all that stuff and
fucking man that guy you know he had a vision they were way into New York
dolls and I never got into the New York dolls you know that was their thing
New York dolls it was some kiss you know and I like to kiss but not New York
dolls but twisted sister boy there was a time they were the biggest band in the
world with that I want to
Thing with that guy in the video. What do you want to do with your life? That was 84 was it so yeah
All right Dean when you when you weren't a band I guess you guys are both comedians. So it might be the same when
When you are get to that pinnacle of like you're the biggest in the world
Do you think you think it's gonna last forever or do you do you think even like if they like all you always hear about one hit wonders do you think they know like all right this is probably like only like do you think they prepare for it or do you think they're just delusional the whole time well I think that
um if it's so fucking hard it's an Xylian to one to get where some of these bands got.
And you gotta know that you can only be there for so long.
Now, if you're delusional, you're just all on drugs
or whatever, but of Deesniter is a very smart man.
He parlayed that into, what are we looking at?
30 fucking years right now on a band
that probably people thought would last, you a week you know so to me that
is still they've made it in my eyes if you go out you can sell out like theaters and shit
right now 30 years later oh yeah that like that doesn't sound like they failed at all now
how many bands got a record deal?
Shhh tape the first album and fell apart. You have no idea the stories of this, the same stories that go with Connie
Nobody knows you see Gabriel glazes. Why do you think Gabriel glazes every night to picture him in a theater with people?
Nobody goes out in the room like Gabriel
And if you talk to Gabriel tell you the same thing the same thing, the same nonetheless forever. Yeah.
I'm going to get a piece of this.
He's very smart about it.
He knows exactly this.
Some people that go into it, then you have people that go into it with their 20s.
Everything falls apart when they're 30, nobody knows who they are, and they still walk
around with that fucking attitude.
Now, that's crazy, right?
That's crazy.
You know who I am?
You know who I am.
That's fucking crazy.
Well, you had 10 years of that.
Like, why wouldn't you?
Yeah.
Like, I almost, you almost understand why it happens.
Music, comedy, acting.
It takes a certain thing, not to fall apart.
And some people fall on the part, break these spares, walk, fell apart for fucking two
years and came back the little chick
The Disney chick. Oh my sorry. She fell apart for two years and somebody had a polar side and talked to it. Yeah
This cut Justin Teed Justin Bieber, whatever everybody has a point, you know Gungeon roses. Yeah, I'm a gungeon rose
His own national television on heroin not smoking a fucking cigarette at the podium.
Like they didn't give a fuck. Yeah. That's my, when I think of guns and roses, I think of that.
That's how big they fucking were. Like they were walking around, fuck uply. I mean,
drooling heroin blow alcohol on their bread cigarettes on a fucking building that said,
no cigarettes. We don't give a fuck.s and roses. Yeah, we're sparking
He knows hey you want to give me a ticket you want to arrest me? Don't matter. We'll be on an hour
And an hour, you know, so there's a certain mind thing that goes with it
Well, you probably have to have that certain mindset to get to that level probably would have seen it
Look at actual fractal rows. We want to deepen. How long did he disappear for now?
15 years 13 years 15 years with Arizona was living with a guy that was reading stones to him. It should read that. I mean Lee God knows where your mind goes. Can you imagine where you go?
Girl wants to suck your dick. You go to that restaurant for breakfast that waitress.
She wants to suck your dick. Her kid loves you. the band, you know, she'll do anything for her. I mean, that's just one of the perps. There's no band.
There's no manual. Yeah. You know, we have, I would love for, you know, they talk about all this
virtual reality. I would love to go and hang with Zeppelin in the 73 for six months. That's
the great, right? And see how long it would take you to go to rehab.
Oh, yeah.
How long would it really take you to,
you went to rehab, you fucking pussy.
These people, I think they go off the deep and John Monham
died in 79 and that party started and fucking,
since he was three, he was drinking like that
and playing the drums and your blood pressure, you know.
That thing doesn't stop.
It's crazy, man. It's like I was talking to you about that Blind Mellon, you know.
It's like, here's this band that had, they put a record out, it flops totally.
And then MTV starts showing the Bumblebee video, you know, like, hey, this is a cute video. You know like hey this is a cute video and in a three-month period they
flop to three million records like they think they're done and they fucking
crush it then the singer gets on fucking drugs and he can't break it. He can't
fucking break loose. He's sending them to rehab. They're trying to fucking help
him. They're trying to fix him. He writes a second record, which is monumental to me. Like this record is crushing. He dies three
months later. I saw him a week before he died, you know, and it's like, it had to just spin him out.
He got to think like, you're from Indiana, like he knows Axel. He sells three million records. He's living in Hollywood in 80s 90s people in the don't cry video
Yeah, yeah, was not not that that's him and
You know they were like they were like almond brothers meets Jane's addiction and this guy's
Mirax, we're deep man. I was reading him today because he died Saturday 31 years ago
I was like this died Saturday 31 years ago. I was like just 31 31 years ago. No
Twenty-one sorry. Yeah, 95. Yeah, 95. Yeah, 21 years ago
But it's just crazy to think like how people you know, they just
I don't know what grabs you you know, you're just out there partying and next thing you know it grabs you and you're gone, you know
You can't you know you look at spring stings longevity you look at the stones long
Yeah, don't tell me the stones in that fucking problem. Oh, man, you know that internal problems and drug problems look at arrows
Smith. Oh, man Lee arrows man take arrow Smith. Yeah, it's like I saw a told you
Lee, Eros, man. Take Eros, man. Yeah. It's like I saw a told you, when they did the Al Marocks, they were so
hired, they even talked to each other, they just lived in the
same house. And what time will be down there with three, don't
put down that three. From three to five, I got the studio
lead over down there from three to five.
They were, you addiction takes you to this place is when you
signed up for this band, you just wanted to make records and make a little bit of money maybe and play and meet some chicks on the road
And here you are aerospace myth these guys were dead
Freddy blue doesn't know the aerospace little story. They died in 1979
And nobody heard from them to 85
But now you like show you so what bands do that all the time?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm talking about
at the time they were the cream of the crop and they fell apart right in front of your parry left. The other guy left
Yeah, the Tyler was on a fucking heroin bender. He couldn't sing. It was a fucking horror show. Oh, it was a horror show and look at somewhere on the one. They really
done with mirrors which I'd wait on fire. That's just a God awful. I love that
record. There's two songs I like I remember and I threw the cassette away. I'm like
I'll never listen to this shit again. Wow. Then the rappers put them on the
fucking song and they blew up the top and they came back all that music. Is it
my favorite ever? Some of the music. No, it's not. But I'm happy they got back together.
It was a piece of my childhood, you know.
We've seen all these people
and you have yourself the same story.
Comedience.
You know, they go to Montreal, they fucking get the deal.
They come here, you know, this is, this moves fast.
This is fast moving, dog.
Yeah.
And when this hits, this hits.
One minute you're doing Googles and fucking this hits this hits one minute you're doing
Googles and fucking Missouri. In the next minute you're gonna record a do the Toronto Amphitheater.
It's 62,000 seats, 6200 seats. I'm sorry. Yeah. And people are gonna pay $48 a fucking ticket for you.
You're like, are you serious? Yeah. And you're still doing that same fucking, you know, you can fall
apart anywhere here. Ego has a lot to do. Ego has a fucking big part. I mean like you can say And you still doing that same fucking, you know, you could fall apart anyway.
Ego has a lot to do. Ego has a fucking big part.
Like you can say, uh, drugs, but it's it's always Ego for the internal battle between I was just reading this thing.
I couldn't believe it yesterday, but when they when maiden first got Bruce Dickinson,
But when they when maiden first got Bruce Dickinson And they do number the beast record it fucking they shoot to fucking the biggest and and Steve Harris the bass player
His thing was I'm always in the front in the middle and
Bruce Dickinson was like third show in like it fucked this guy. I'm the singer
He start going over just fucking smashing
him over like you're over there dude and they and Steve Harris admitted they got a number
one record out and he's like I'm thinking of firing this guy ego because he wanted to
be dead center in the stage it's unbelievable when I'm reading this like who's heard of a
bass player dead center you know what I mean as you know
I'm an emotional guy and I get emotional with dumb shit
Yeah, in my internal mind sometimes you just pissed off for two days
And you know what my pistol yeah, so the other day I go what the fuck am I doing that let me go buy some albums?
I go down there like she's actually 10 great albums that day, but do albums jump out at me synchronously. Oh, yeah
Synchronously turned my life around. I was in a fucked up spot. 93 that summer. I was a burglar
Yeah, I was going to college. I was working with a electrician and that album used to suit me
I don't know what it was that the pretenders learning to crawl awesome at that time and I got regard of the bunk
Yeah, all right
And I got the stones and made in the shade.
It was one of my favorite of all time
because you don't stop.
The fucking album just don't stop.
I like albums that don't stop sometimes.
Yeah.
And I'm on my way home.
One of my buddies calls me from Jersey.
And we had been missing calls for a couple of days.
And I call them back.
And he goes, well, you're coming from and about.
Listen to how much of a child I am.
And it comes to music.
A buddy, a week ago, his brother, the guy I'm on the phone with,
his brother flew out here and met with another guy from where we're from,
from San Diego when they went to those concerts.
Now, I grew up in this kid's shed of music.
And we used to have arguments about music and shit.
The one that came out of here was older, Anthony Avilo.
And he posted a picture of Pink Floyd on Sunday night. Oh yeah. I've got your
words and it says dogs tremendous and I fucking get furious. If you play dogs
they'll be on that stage. Hey, if not don't do it. You just kill them. Don't fucking
do it in front of me. I'll tell you that. And I'm driving. I'm thinking about all this shit
on the way home and I tell them, you know what Steve? You fucking brother went last week and he
posted that picture. Fuck him. And he goes, what are you talking about? I go, you know, I can't.
There's two people. I can't stand the music business. I can't stand looking at him. And that's
A-stang. Yeah. And two Roger Waters. I really cannot stay in Roger Waters.
When we tell my hearing,
I'm talking about a bunch of them in the fucking mind.
And for years, I liked them.
I really liked them.
And there was one thing I don't like.
Yeah.
Well, he did that thing on VH1
and he talked about Roy Harper singing that part.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
What song does he sing?
On money, right?
It's money.
Is it money? No, it's um
Which one's pink wish you were here. No, it's from wish you were here. So it's gotta be it's a yeah
Melody from that album shine on you crazy diamond. It's something. It's the one
Man, I was we were just talking about it you know, and I never knew that Roy Harper saying that
ever until like three months ago.
And I was like, wow.
It was something weird that had to take him out of the,
like, he just couldn't hit it.
He could hit it.
He did it, he did it, he did it.
He was like, now what?
An hour, Roger.
An hour, how long is this gonna take?
And he couldn't hit it.
So they sent him out, Roy Harper was next door. He never got paid
Have a cigar have a cigar. Yeah, yeah, by the way, which one's pinky says that in right? Yeah, by the way, which one's pink
Have a cigar you're gonna go far isn't that weird because something crazy couldn't hit it
It sounds just like one of those guys. Roy Harper came in, nails it. And when fucko comes back, you know, now they interview him then and now. And
he's like, you know, like that, I just fucking a whole thing. I hate came over me because
I knew Pink Floyd just didn't break up because they were four geniuses. They had to be a
fucking reason. Yeah., that's he said
Whatever sang it, but till this day. I
Think I still could done about it. Yeah, you know what fuck you punk. I
Fuck you punk. I love Don Felder. Yeah, okay. I love Don Felder
There's a big deal with them in the Eagles that
On Not the long run. Yeah, he was gonna sing a song on hotel California. Yes, they took him
the lunch and they take the song with Don Henry and that cost him their fucking life. Like,
but again you're not gonna pull it off. They eventually like keep singing. Keep
Richard when you keep Richard's singing you want to shoot yourself in the head. You know,
you're like what the fuck is this shit? They're throwing them egg me around.
Whatever.
But you know, give me the song.
He wrote 18 fucking hits.
What's up, Lee?
You always hear comedians want,
like, which they were rock stars.
In a band, does everyone wish they were the singer?
Because I've never...
I think everybody wishes they were the star. Okay.
Not necessarily the singer, just the main guy.
You know, that's how it gets into that, I think, you know, to me, especially with drummers,
because they get such the short end of the stick, they got the fucking, they got to play drums,
the fucking physical and shit.
And then at the end of the day, they don't get any glory unless you're you know corresponds or keep moon but and then they get
cut out of royalties because they didn't write the songs and all this shit
that's why I always get drummers on my podcast because without a good drummer
the band sucks I'll show every band that's great they got it starts with the
great drummer you know that's the bottom line. So you got to fucking keep that guy happy, man,
because the chemistry is there. It's weird, man. When you got chemistry with four guys,
you can't just go like, well, us too, we make all the money. You know, it's just, it's just,
it's gonna blow up. That's crazy. I never thought about that. How drummers do get caught up.
They do. The music business is just as perotious.
It's gross.
As any other fucking and people think that it's that glamour thing and you still get robbed
somewhere along the line. Like there's always a theft.
Years ago I don't remember. Like I said this on this show, somebody lived in the building
that was on tour with limp biscuit. They were opening up for limp biscuit and never were telling me that story that they don't get paid on the tour or something.
The album sales, something that I sat and said, what? Yeah, you guys don't get too grand or
something to open up for Limp Biscuit. Like, nah, we get like, for DM and something else, we make
our records online. I don't fucking know. I was like baffle and you took this deal.
It's crazy. Called a 360 deal. Where the record companies, they figured out, well nobody's
gonna buy the records anymore. So we're not making any money on these bands. So what we got to do
is do a 360 deal, which means we get a piece of everything in the pie. We got a piece of your toy, we got a piece of your t-shirts,
we got a piece of your, if you're on TV, we got a piece of your songwriting, we get a piece of your
record sales, 360 deal, and it's fucking gross. You know, it's just insane, man. But that all trickles
down from people stealing records and everything, you know, it's just that the big wigs, they're
not going to give up their cars and mansions. So where do you think they're going to get
the money? They're going to keep digging until they get the money to keep the fucking,
it's not to keep the lights on, it's to keep the fourth car on and the fifth house and
the, you know what I mean? It's insane. I never, like I said, I, that was one part of me.
I'm, I'm an only child and that shit runs deep with psychologically at times.
Yeah. You know, I was, I always bustle these chops.
They always says to me, well, I'm thinking about my girlfriend moving.
I go, I'm knowing you from the outside.
And I, I could tell that you're a really personal guy.
You know, like people touching your shit
He's never had a roommate situation. I'm the same way I met him
He never had a struggle and go to me Joe. I live with you guys and shit. It was open his home to you
But I could tell that I think I'm a little weak as long as you he lean those you're going home
He's happy like yeah this ends like an, you could stay on my couch. ʻ‿ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ‿ ʻ� You
