10:26 Speaker 13: Live in studio.

10:27 Speaker 19: Welcome everybody, as we have entered our number two new marrow dose of Matt Connorton unleashed on this Saturday morning. And of course, uh, Saint Patrick's Day does approach, which is why the Pop Farmers are here. I guess we're making this annual tradition, which I love.

10:41 Speaker 13: This is great.

10:42 Speaker 19: Jenny is here of course at the news table for yes, and we have the Pop Farmers and actually, well we have a one more member than we had we had.

10:52 Speaker 13: Present with us last year, so this is great. These guys are gonna play live for us.

10:55 Speaker 1: But let's do this.

10:56 Speaker 13: Let's well, you all know the drill. We'll start in the corner. Uh, you can eat you.

10:59 Speaker 19: I tell us who you are, what you do in the band, your involvement in the Pop Farmers, and any other pertinent details you'd like us to know.

11:05 Speaker 1: All right, I'm Dan Moran and I play mandolin when we play the Irish songs and I played bass when we don't play the Irish songs, so yes, it's yeah, so kind of Gary and I switch off and he plays guitar and I played bass, and uh, yeah, it's kind of cool. We when we started doing playing the Irish bar as we well, one of us should learn mandolin, so it works out well, So that makes sense, that makes sense. Unfortunately Tyler is a better mandolin player than I am, but h he lets me play it.

11:35 Speaker 19: So Tyler, And of course your name came up in the uh in the first hour, sorry because of Gary mentioned because of course Fox and the Flamingos. You're one of those guys who's in like all kinds.

11:46 Speaker 20: How many bands are you in currently? Just technically one. I'm filling in with them for St. Patrick's. Oh okay, Box and the Flamingos is my only band.

11:56 Speaker 13: Right now, right right? You don't have another project with Gary? No, Gary, Yeah, so many projects?

12:01 Speaker 19: He confuses me, I think, I think because he he mentioned you, so then in my mind I connected that as oh so obviously they probably have ten bands that they do together. Okay, so you're Fox and the Flamingos, but you also help out in the pop Farmers okay, excellent, excellent? Was that was that the case last year too?

12:19 Speaker 13: When you were I remember you were here?

12:21 Speaker 1: Were you? He was a full time that way. Then he left and we philipp from uh glitter to oh yeah, he was replacing Tyler. Oh okay, but Bill's pretty busy and here Todd Tyler likes the combativeness of Saint Patrick's day, so we hire him to come and uh and duke it out with us during the muscle.

12:41 Speaker 13: Excellent, excellent, Well, wonderful to see you and you sir.

16:59 Speaker 13: What have you got coming up for Saint Patrick?

17:00 Speaker 23: Say?

17:00 Speaker 13: What is the plan? Because if I remember correctly, so last.

17:04 Speaker 19: Year when you guys were here, it was like you had like like two gigs or three gigs in one day or something.

17:12 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a nutty time. We could probably I was telling gener earlier. We probably play. We could probably play four or five times that day if we Yeah, just because well we can't. We can't because we can't stress ourselves out that far. But yeah, we played last night at the Pedlar's Daughter in Nashua, So that's why probably a little groggy. We got home at two thirty and then got here. Yeah, and then tomorrow tonight we're playing at the Pedlar's Daughter in Haverol, Okay. And then Saturdays. Second Sunday Sunday we're playing a great north Ale works in Manchester, Oh very nice.

17:47 Speaker 1: And then Monday we're playing from eleven to three at the Peddler's Daughter in Harol, Okay for real early in the morning, and then we're gonna boogey on over to Nashville and play from five to eight at the Peddler's Daughter. So there's our there's daughter world to our Yes, if they had more more venues, we could probably stretch it out, but they just have the two.

18:07 Speaker 19: So for a band like the Pop Farmers, it's kind of like what Black Friday is to retail, right, Yes, yeah.

18:12 Speaker 1: It's our busy time and yeah because we like so we first started, we were just we're just doing basic classic rock covers, but we played a lot of Irish bars, so if you got let's learn some Irish songs, and then it kind of became our niche. So we're not totally an Irish band, but we you know, we played a lot of mostly classic rock covers, but we sprinkle them in, like we can play as many or as little as Irish songs as we needed. Some some bars we don't play any at all, but just a few, but yeah, but yeah we could, we could we and we don't play like like a lot of the traditional rebel songs where you were, it's kind of like just drinking songs and yeah, typical Saint Patrick's Day stuff.

18:53 Speaker 1: But it's uh, it's fun to play and people seem to really like it.

18:56 Speaker 19: So oh yeah, yeah, are are you guys as a band active pretty active the rest of the year too, or.

19:02 Speaker 1: Like, yeah, we're we're booked out. We played at the beach at out of Hampton Beach in summer.

19:10 Speaker 13: That must be fun.

19:11 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a it's a nuthouse out there too, because yeah, but yeah, we we're playing a couple of times a month, not not overly too much, but yeah we're getting there.

19:23 Speaker 13: No, that's great.

19:23 Speaker 19: That that is excellent if you are just joining us the Pop Farmers. The Pop Farmers are with us live in studio.

19:29 Speaker 13: I'm struggling this morning. I can write some more water, but you guys want to play another one. I'm dying here more you guys. Sound sounds fantastic.

19:36 Speaker 1: Gary's going to sing this one ready all right.

19:42 Speaker 13: The Pop Farmers are live in studio.

20:47 Speaker 11: Was no wonder.

21:00 Speaker 18: The dadio blackball the daddio.

21:03 Speaker 1: There's whiskey in the jar.

21:06 Speaker 21: It was early in the morning when I rose up for travel. The guards are all around me, and likewise Captain Farrell I first produced my pistol, for she stole away my rapier. I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taking.

22:37 Speaker 19: The pop farmers here with us live in studio on this Saturday morning. Great job guys, great job.

22:44 Speaker 13: Is it hard to sing this early in the day, I mean, I guess, I guess at uh at Saint Patrick's day time. You kind of have to force yourself to do it, right, but.

22:54 Speaker 20: Not much of a choice. It's always hard for me to sing.

22:56 Speaker 1: Is I'm not hitting the high notes this morning?

23:00 Speaker 21: Know?

23:00 Speaker 1: No, Gary is the singer in the band. We just we just followed Gary.

23:05 Speaker 21: Yeah.

23:06 Speaker 24: Yeah, and it's only day two, so yeah, oh yeahled by Guinness.

23:11 Speaker 21: Yeah, it might sound a little bit different, right right.

23:17 Speaker 1: Don't talk to us on Tuesday. You don't have any voices. Yeah.

23:25 Speaker 13: Oh, and I just realized too. You guys are all wearing green.

23:27 Speaker 19: I don't think I have anything green people are and I'm Irish, but I don't think I have any I don't think I have any green clothes at all.

23:33 Speaker 13: It's funny though, too.

23:33 Speaker 19: I was also uh noticing Jenny's name in the song and coincidentally, Jenny Jenny is not Irish, but she has red hair.

23:42 Speaker 12: I also only have two articles of clothing. You what, I only have two articles and I've got one on one not on.

23:50 Speaker 1: Yes, it's not a prerequisite.

23:53 Speaker 13: Yeah, oh, I don't know. You're not like you don't. You don't look Irish.

24:00 Speaker 1: There.

24:01 Speaker 13: Yeah, but.

24:06 Speaker 19: How many like when So when you guys play live for the Saint Patrick's Day shows, is it is it mostly like classic Irish songs or are there obviously.

24:17 Speaker 13: You have originals too, right? So like what's kind of the ratio there?

24:21 Speaker 1: It's it depends. Like when we play at the in Haverol, we play pretty much, it's four hours we play. We play mostly Irish stuff, but yeah, sometimes we have to repeat it because we don't you know, we don't have fun. You know, we have a lot, but not four hours worth. But but we play, but we mix in the classic rock stuff too and people seem to be okay with that, so it's not just four hours of Irish music.

24:46 Speaker 13: Yeah.

24:46 Speaker 1: Actually, one one of le bars we got hired at Tom McGirk up at Hampton Beach. He hired us because we played some Irish music, but not well, you know, three hours worth, because oh, you know, I don't know, well, I guess some people want to hear three hours or at Irish music. But he said at the beach they didn't want to hear three hours of Irish So we can play enough that if people request more irish we can do it. But if not, you know, like some bars don't they don't want to hear it at all. So that's fine.

25:13 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we're good.

25:15 Speaker 19: But I guess I guess if you're playing a four hour show though, too, there's nothing wrong with repeating some things later on because obviously that crowd is turning over anyway.

25:22 Speaker 1: Sure.

25:23 Speaker 20: Yeah, and frankly, on St.

25:26 Speaker 12: Patrick's Day, everybody wants to hear like certain songs multiple timesicorns.

25:31 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, that's true. That's true.

25:37 Speaker 12: They'll still scream out the ones even though we've already played them right now, that makes sense. It's like the one day we're like, all right, fine.

25:43 Speaker 19: Yeah, what's the longest show you guys have played during uh, Saint Patrick's or at any time of the year.

25:50 Speaker 13: Actually, what like because four hours.

25:53 Speaker 1: More hours we played. We played a private party in Hampton Beach and I think were initially was a four hour game yep, And and then they kept saying can you play more? And so give us kept throwing throw money out, so money we did. It was like yeah, it was a six hour gig. And again but we I think could we play We think we played Drunken Sale or like eight times. That's what they wanted to hear. Like, okay, you got it. You keep throwing money on us, We'll play it.

26:21 Speaker 13: Yeah, give them what they want. Yeah, no doubt, no doubt. You want to play another one?

26:27 Speaker 1: Sure? Like Tyler said that this is one that people always actually request more. So we played like four or five times Ballwie Girl, and that's again we will play the song and then invariably ten minutes later, so somebody come up and say, can you play Gallway Girl? Okay, so this is it's not I guess it's it's an Irish song, but Steve Earl wrote it, so it's not. It's not you know, like an like a Dublin or song or something, but it's Steve Earl.

26:57 Speaker 13: Nice nice.

26:59 Speaker 1: So this is a p Fallway Girl. I'm gonna say Peddler's daughter a lot will it took a stroll down the old long walk on a d ay ay. I met a little.

Are there any Are there any of these songs that that you felt compelled to learn at a band that were particularly challenging or are they all kind of kind of easy to pick up?

31:00 Speaker 19: Is there anything that that you guys kind of struggled.

31:02 Speaker 13: With a little bit or.

31:04 Speaker 1: Chord wise, they're all fairly fairly easy, but but word wise, there's a lot of words.

31:11 Speaker 13: Yeah, I've noticed that.

31:13 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and when you try to learn them, I think Gary can vouch for this. But when you're learning them, you go, Okay, this is the version I learned, and then you you hear somebody like Clanchy Brothers or somebody and the words are totally different or there's verses that we're in it that we don't play. So yeah, you could probably play them six or seven different ways.

31:34 Speaker 13: But yeah, so that's in Builton Leeway there.

31:37 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, pretty much everything.

31:39 Speaker 21: It's definitely like an evolving art form, you know, it's constantly evolving. I think people put their own little spin on it and you know, take liberties with some of the verses or whatever. I mean, we do that with some of the stuff. Yeah, I know, it's it's it's fun.

31:58 Speaker 19: Nobody comes up to you at a bar and says, hey, you don't play that the way it's That's not the way it was written.

32:04 Speaker 1: The only time that press ever happened was with let's let's see. Sometimes I get bad with with titles the drop Kick Murphy song. We do that fields a bath and rye, Yeah, because we do it kind of drop kick Murphy style. But some you know, every now and then it's a it's a it's a folky song, but we we do that's the way we do it. And what in Havevor one year something like did you play it like more normal? And like, yeah, we we can do that, and these guys like, no, we can't, but it's like we can. So we did it, and it's it's you know, a lot of them they're like I said, we drew kind of drop kick Murphy's or Flogging Molly kind of style, but we can.

32:47 Speaker 1: We can tone it down if we have to.

32:49 Speaker 13: Is that literally what they said? Can you play it more normal?

32:51 Speaker 1: I forget what the word was, but it was more traditional maybe but maybe not normal. But but yeah, it's it's it's one of those ones we like. I like playing it, but yeah, we uh, either way, I can play it either we can play it either way. Yeah, but it's mostly mostly rocking, so yeah, yeah, oh that's funny.

33:11 Speaker 13: That's funny. Does anybody ever ask you for for a song that you don't that you don't know, like.

33:16 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. There's so many Irish songs, even not even regular classic rock. Yeah yeah, play small Town Girl.

33:27 Speaker 21: It's like playing road.

33:30 Speaker 1: Yeah. We know a lot of them, but we don't know all of them. But at that point we just kind of give them the list and say here, this is what we do. Pick one. Yeah yeah, and they're usually pretty cool about it. Yeah, and if not, they can come back later, right yeah. Yeah.

33:45 Speaker 19: Have you ever done a Saint Patrick stay show where things seem to get out of control, where like the like law enforcement had to come or anything.

33:52 Speaker 1: Yeah, Jimmy, tell that story. The first Was it the first one we did? I think it was the first, right, yeah, yeah, go ahead.

33:58 Speaker 20: Yeah, we were on break and I think it was.

34:01 Speaker 24: It might have been a week night and we just wanted to go home, and the Haveril Police Department was coming just to look in and see, if you know, not over capacity or whatever. And as he was walking down, I'm like, hey, any chance you can shut this down now?

34:16 Speaker 1: And he goes, now, we can't. I'm like, all right, well I tried.

34:20 Speaker 24: So I go inside to use the bathroom and I come back outside and I'm sitting outside and I see this kid go flying out the door in a CoP's hand behind him, and then another kid go flying out the door, and within three minutes the place was empty. There was a fight and they said we're done, and they actually ended up closing it down.

34:41 Speaker 13: You spoke it in new existence, Yeah, good that way. Yeah, that's funny.

34:49 Speaker 1: That's funny.

34:51 Speaker 13: If you're just joining us. We have the Pop Farmers here with us, live in studio. He dous want to play another one?

38:34 Speaker 13: Well done, well done.

38:36 Speaker 19: We've got the pop farmers here with us, alive in studio on this Saturday morning, as Saint Patrick's Day approaches quickly.

38:44 Speaker 13: So no, you guys, you guys sound great now? How many how many songs have you recorded as a band? How many songs?

38:51 Speaker 23: Is it?

38:51 Speaker 21: Is? It?

38:51 Speaker 13: Just the two the popform.

38:53 Speaker 1: When we came during during COVID, we were kind of like bands in the world. We all our gigs got canceled, so Tyler and I decided we were on a record an album, and so we did a project. We called it Miran Moran instead of Duran Duran I'm a Ran. Yeah, And so then we had these guys come in and we had a lot of our friends come in and the two I had written I have. I had like five or six songs that were partially written, and somehow we ended up getting two more Irish songs together. So I think the project is eight or nine songs, yeah, the Moran Moran.

39:31 Speaker 1: But and these guys play on some of it and uh but yeah, the only ones that are that were pop armer ones of those two. Okay, yeah, we we don't we don't do we have don't have a lot of originals, but we're hopefully get more.

39:44 Speaker 13: But so the Moran Moran. So is that a full album that you guys did together or okay? Is that online? Is that on Spotify?

39:53 Speaker 11: Oh?

39:53 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's yeah. We did, like I said, we we we had I had some songs part shoot right and I said the tiler, hey did you finish these? And so they musically they were pretty done, you know, chord wise. Then we wrote I just had to come up with lyrics and that took a long time, but it was fun. And uh and then, like I said, it was all during COVID, so it was kind of it was. It was a weird time for everybody. So yeah, we call I called my friends, some of our friends and say come you know, and like the Peddler's daughter, we shipped out some friends of ours live in California and we shipped the tracks out to them and they put the squeeze box on it and the fiddle.

40:31 Speaker 1: So yeah, it was, it was. It was a cool project.

40:35 Speaker 13: Yeah. Now, so on the brand Ran project, is it is it just the two of you or the other musicians?

40:41 Speaker 1: No, we have it's a pretty a lot of music. Yeah, okay, he played, He played a lot of it. If you look at the track listing, you know, you know he plays a ton of instruments. And and then I would call up Gary is he's Gary play based on this? And he would and Jimmy came in and we yeah, it was, it was. It was a fun time. Okay, okay, it could kind of help the COVID then go buy faster.

41:03 Speaker 6: Yeah.

41:04 Speaker 19: Well the thing too that I always say is, you know, the pandemic was terrible but we have to find the silver lines where we can. Yeah, and one of them is it really kind of I think forced a lot of people, a lot of musicians.

41:14 Speaker 13: To kind of find new ways to create or or even just using.

41:18 Speaker 19: Existing technologies but embracing them further in terms of, you know, getting comfortable with sending tracks back and forth and collaborating with people you know anywhere really you know, in other parts of the country and other parts of the world, and you know, and that stuff we could already do. Obviously, we already had things like tropbox and Google Drive. But it really kind of forced a lot of people who hadn't thought to work that way to try working that way. And and I think a lot of great music came out of it, and a lot of creativity in other art forms as well.

41:48 Speaker 19: So so, but so it sounds like so essentially the pop Farmers grew out of Moran Moran, Is that fair to say?

41:54 Speaker 1: No, the pop Farmers came first, or the pop Farmers came We've been together for twenty years now. This is our the anniversary. Yeah, Jimmy and I. Jimmy is the He's the only one that's been in the band forever. Oh, I left for like nine months to go to California with my wife. But Jimmy and I we we had a band called John Paul in the Absolutes, And when that band faded, Jimmy, al Carry and I stayed together and we we formed the Pop Farmers. It wasn't the Pop Farmers at first. We were we were called Naughty Pine.

42:26 Speaker 1: We did that at a while, I.

42:29 Speaker 13: Remember, because I remember we talked about that year before.

42:31 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we had a different singer and then when he left, Gary joined. So Gary's been with us for a while fifteen years maybe, and then uh oh yeah, so it's been evolving.

42:43 Speaker 13: This band has been around a lot longer than I realize.

42:44 Speaker 1: Yeah, two thousand and five. We think we were not really positive, but we think it's two thousand and five when we started.

42:50 Speaker 18: Wow.

42:51 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we've been doing a long time, okay. And Tyler was just a little kid when we formed it.

42:55 Speaker 13: Yeah yeah, oh wow, and he he was in Little Kid.

43:02 Speaker 1: Tyler was in the band for a while and that was that was a fun lineup. And then when he left it to kind of go with Fox and the Fling Flamingos more. Philip from Glitter tooth to us, but he can't. He's in a situation where he has a family restaurant, so he can't play on Fridays. So we now have we had to find our Friday farmer. So one of our one of our original members, al Carry. He came out of retirement, so he's our Friday guy. Fills our Saturday guy. Okay, so now we can start booking Friday gigs and fills another guy with multiple uh yeah, fills awesome, yeah.

43:36 Speaker 19: Multiple projects going, yeah yeah, uh oh. We definitely have time for another one. You want to you want to play another one?

47:56 Speaker 15: A black velted ban.

48:10 Speaker 19: Nice, very nice. The pop farmers are here with us alive in studio, and as you guys were playing that song, you know what occurred to me. We were talking earlier about how some of these songs have you know, they're very wordy, a lot of lyrics, and I realized is and is my imagination or do some of these like Irish songs?

48:30 Speaker 13: Do some of them have four verses?

48:33 Speaker 1: Yeah? Some of them have no choruses? Yees. Yeah, yeah, it's just like, yeah, I.

48:38 Speaker 20: Have six, some have seven.

48:40 Speaker 8: Yeah.

48:40 Speaker 19: Yeah, I've never really thought about that before until until just now as you guys are playing that song, like see, there really are a lot.

48:47 Speaker 13: Of words some of these songs.

48:48 Speaker 12: They're usually like epic stories, yeah, yeah, the tales they would tell in the pubs and all that. So it's like sometimes it's ungodly yeah yeah, and to go on the lyrics, like sometimes it's almost impossible to remember the order unless you remember the story. Oh yeah yeah, keep track of the story while remembering the lyrics that tell the story.

49:12 Speaker 1: It's like a lot.

49:13 Speaker 20: Yeah that's what I don't think.

49:15 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'd never thought about it before. But then as yeah, as you guys are playing that song, like yeah, there's a lot of oh wait, there's another verse.

49:23 Speaker 1: Yeah, keep going on. Some of the ones we do that Gary he'll have you know, he'll do four verses, but then there's really like six or seven. This will be way too long.

49:34 Speaker 13: Yeah.

49:35 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there's a lot. They're very wordy.

49:37 Speaker 23: Yeah.

49:38 Speaker 13: Yeah. You guys ever forgot you ever forget lyrics?

49:41 Speaker 1: Yeah all the time.

49:42 Speaker 21: Yeah, you know, repeat verses sometimes because we forgot one of them, you know.

49:47 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, second verse, same as the first.

49:50 Speaker 11: Yeah.

49:50 Speaker 20: A lot of them are really really dark songs.

49:53 Speaker 1: Yeah, they sound happy some of them, but if you listen to the lyrics, if some of them are sad and it's scary.

49:58 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, no, I get that. I did notice that. I did notice.

50:02 Speaker 19: Yeah, I guess if you have to repeat a verse or something or change the lyrics, I mean, if people are drinking nobody.

50:10 Speaker 20: Yeah, it's that time of the year, you could say anything.

50:12 Speaker 19: Really, does anybody ever call you guys on that, like, hey, that that's not how that goes, that's not what the.

50:19 Speaker 13: What the lyrics are to that that song or you change the story or something to anybody.

50:23 Speaker 20: Ever, No, I think I have a memory of somebody doing that. But they were really sober.

50:29 Speaker 12: Yeah, so they were able to like really pay attention to the lyrics the time of the year, Like, if you're doing the right thing, you should just be able to just say the melody you know, really need the word.

50:41 Speaker 13: Right right, all right, cut you off here.

50:44 Speaker 21: Well, you know, it is like I said earlier, it's like an evolving, you know thing. Yeah, and I think people that are fans of Irish music know that it's going to be different, Like everyone's going to interpret it their way or put their little you know, they're a little special sauce on it or whatever. You know. I think I think the people that are, you know, true officionados of the of the genre, they're they're accepting of that. In fact, they expect that.

51:11 Speaker 13: Yeah.

51:12 Speaker 19: Yeah, I love your bass by the way, I love the That's an unusual design, but that's cool.

51:17 Speaker 13: That's really cool. I don't know, how do you want to describe that? So obviously people can't see it on the radio, but I'm so taken what I think.

51:26 Speaker 21: Officially it's called blue floral, okay, yeah, yeah, that's a cool design.

51:30 Speaker 13: Yeah.

51:32 Speaker 21: So in the in the sixties they had the blue floral basically it's it's a piece of wallpaper. And then they also had the pink Paisley. Like the pink Paisley was kind of made popular by what's his name, the guitar player for Elvis, Yes, James Burton. Yeah, he kind of popularized it because, oh, you know he's playing that hippie guitar.

51:56 Speaker 13: You know, that's cool, that's cool.

52:00 Speaker 19: We have time for one more, you guys want to play one more and then what.

52:03 Speaker 21: We want to do? Whale whalia speaking of dark.

52:06 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is this, This is a this is one I apparently this song. What I heard was that it's one of the things that parents, Irish parents would would sink to their kids so they would eat their vegetables or really better, it's kind of yeah, it's it's a scary dark song.

52:24 Speaker 21: Oh, cautionary tale.

52:25 Speaker 1: Cautionary tale. That's a good way to put it.

52:27 Speaker 19: Okay, all right, now I'm very curious, all right, okay, all right, the pop farmers live in studio.
