Speaker 2: All right there. Yeah, so they were my second concert? Were they ye over at the Capitol and Conquered.
Speaker 7: I was at that show. I think that was before you and I knew each other.
Speaker 12: But I was at that show.
Speaker 2: That was in ninth grade.
Speaker 1: So you were like, in, h we don't need to go out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but I think everybody even Conquered that was under the age of thirty.

Speaker 2: First concert was White Snake down right across the street there when they had those concerts over there right now, just working, playing in this band, playing in another band, yeah yeah, trying to get another band going, and.
Speaker 10: Oh you are yeah yeah, yeah, you don't have enough to do already, No, you like, I know, you like to keep it. You've always been like that, right, You've always got multiple projects going.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because you know, people have multiple things going on in their life, and when you can't do a gig with one band, you all right, well we'll get the other one in there exactly how to keep you know, keep busy. Plus if you can make some money, that's always good.
Speaker 10: Too, absolutely absolutely, And you sir, oh, wait, I got to make sure you're I can't hear you, so let me let me figure out why.
Speaker 1: Lucky you we actually set it up that way.
Speaker 7: Uh say something, Hello, No, there we go now Manchester.
Speaker 13: No, I can hear you. Yes, sorry, go ahead. My name is Scott Draper and I am part of waiting for z Yes, and I know what else to say, so I we'll just wait. You ask me questions.
Speaker 7: All right, good?
Speaker 13: And so you play guitar and you sing in roughly, Yeah, yeah, I do. My first show actually you might like this. My first show was a concert that I went to when I was a kid. I was eight and I saw a kiss during the Dynasty tour in Worcester, matt Oh no, Springfield, mass Oh.
Speaker 7: Okay.
Speaker 12: So that was a big kicking off point to rock stardom. As you can see.
Speaker 10: Nice, nice, very good, very good. And uh, all right, we'll go to the bass player here. By the way, bass is my instrument as well.
Speaker 1: So yeah, you say, when I get here, make me nervous, you know what I mean?
Speaker 7: I have some I do have some bias.
Speaker 5: Yeah, what in the world?
Speaker 14: Well, so I don't, right, So my family is extremely musical. That's how I got into it, so we pretty much were all classically trained and uh, except for you, yeah exactly. I dropped out of school on the Dean's list. By the way, great phone call to make to your parents. Hey, I crushed in school right now.
Speaker 1: I just hate it, so I'm going to stay home.
Speaker 14: So basically, my mom played piano when saying my dad's a drummer and sings a little bit. My little brother's a guitar virtue, well so and say so. They all wanted to play, and the only instrument left was bass, and I didn't want to play bass at all, but they bought me one for Christmas and kind of shoved it down my throat.
Speaker 1: So here I am. That's kind of how I'm here, you know.
Speaker 15: Oh, very good, very good, all right, and you sir yo, good morning on me. Anthony, Laura and I played drums and waiting for Z today. I brought my vintage nineteen eighty six leather stool. That's the instrument for the day. This is seen after this is scene more swamp ass than every went in this movie.
Speaker 12: There is one very good, very good.
Speaker 7: Now that's fine. Oh that's right, that that word is fine or that variation of that word anyway, I did.
Speaker 1: Ask you did you did?
Speaker 7: There are certain variations of the word would be a problem, but that's fine. Yeah, very good. So I'm done here. You guys play you all want to play something for us, and then we'll, uh, we can chat a little more.
Speaker 16: All right.
Speaker 2: This is a little song that we wrote way back in you know, seventy.
Speaker 13: There are no guarantees that it's going to be any good at nine o'clock in the morning, but we'll give it a shot.
Speaker 1: All Let's be honest. It just no guarantees it is gonna good at nine o'clock.
Speaker 12: And that's true. Before two ps up there, I'm not hearing this.
Speaker 7: Are you ping? You're you're on the board right, might might need to turn it up on that on that board there, Scott, No, I'm not hearing him.
Speaker 17: I hear it.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you might have to turn those up on. Uh, for for those for them, for those listening these guys have if you're not seeing live on uh, if you're not watching the video. So these guys did something very smart, which we're going to encourage future guests to bring to do. Actually, they brought their own board to plug into our board, which is really cool, so they can they can kind of control the.
Speaker 6: Well.
Speaker 13: See, I appreciate the compliment that we did something very smart. The problem is is we have the least technical doing.
Speaker 7: Oh that's funny. Now that is that is very smart though.
Speaker 2: Because this doesn't have any.
Speaker 7: For you at home.
Speaker 13: This is why we're called waiting for Z. Xander shows up late and then runs overtime early.
Speaker 7: You're not gonna hear.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna microphone. He's breaking things.
Speaker 7: Oh my goodness, all the mic stand to that come out? Yeah, that pops out.
Speaker 2: We get it to make Jagger.
Speaker 16: I'm so glad you guys gave me time to to my Steward.
Speaker 1: That's what we were all right. Here we go, Benny Fellas waiting for.
Speaker 7: Z live in studio. Here we go.
Speaker 18: Anyway you want it, that's the way you need it. Anyway you want it.
Speaker 19: She loves a laugh, She loves to sing, she does everything.
Speaker 19: Loves the moon, she loves the groove, she loves a.
Speaker 20: Laughing a man, Oh night, oh after.
Speaker 21: Night, all time, old time, then the whole time.

Speaker 12: You want it, I want a loon. I never knew what to look with you.

Speaker 5: She said, oh, oh.

Speaker 1: She said, anyway you.
Speaker 18: Want if that's the way you need it. Anyway you want it, she said, anyway you won't it. That's the way you need anyway you won't it.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, you guys sound fantastic. That that was really good. That was really good. I've always loved that song.
Speaker 10: But an observation, like vocally, the way you guys sound together is just really really good because you know, I mean, that's a song. Obviously, you know a lot of bands cover that song, but but like I just I really noticed that. You know, you play it very well. You're all excellent musicians. But when you guys sing together. Have other people said this to you when you guys are singing together, like on the choruses or you know, your voices together are.
Speaker 7: Just really good. Does any does anyone else point that out or I'm just curious if people notice that.
Speaker 2: Nobody nobody points it out. They hate us.
Speaker 1: When your parents are classically trained musicians. Yeah, they like to let you know when you're a little flat.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 10: I was wondering about that specifically though, because vocally it's like, you guys are perfect together.
Speaker 16: Just wait until I jump in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, weapon waiting in the wings.
Speaker 2: Usually there's a piece of duct team.
Speaker 16: They just take the mic away.
Speaker 12: Yeah, give them mic. We just don't turn right.
Speaker 2: He's coming through the monitors but not the mains.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, okay, but we appreciate that.
Speaker 21: Man.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's awesome.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 13: Yeahcuse, I think the biggest thing we get is just the banter in between songs.
Speaker 7: Really.
Speaker 13: Yeah, there's a lot of as I said earlier before the show started, that there's a lot of busting chops at rehearsals and yeah, and just you know, the group text messages and stuff like that. So I think we just, you know, I think we've all have been doing this long enough that we just have a good time with each other. Yeah, you know, and as long as we learn our parts or usually it's I usually learned the wrong part and then Xander shows me the part. Uh, and then I have to relearn it. But you know, it is what it is and it works.
Speaker 14: But you say so before we started the show, right, this area has a ton of super talented musicians.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like super talented.
Speaker 7: Absolutely.
Speaker 14: So you can go to a thousand bars and see any genre of music you want on any weekend night and see somebody that's crazy talented, right, true. So when we get up there, sure we'll play and we'll do all the songs you want to hear. But what else can you bring to thee? Like what makes it a show? What makes people want to show up and have a good time talk about it the next morning hungover? Right, So that's kind of what we in our mind when we go when we get on stage. It's the banter. It's the between songs stuff, because everybody can do the song right right, you know.
Speaker 14: Maybe you know our harmonies are pretty good.
Speaker 7: I like that, thank very much.
Speaker 14: Yeah, But it's to me, it's what what makes people laugh, what makes people have a good time between songs, and that's what brings people back.
Speaker 12: Yeah, to add on to that.
Speaker 13: You know, like I said, we've all been doing this long enough, and we've all been playing in bands and this and that, and there's a pigeon on the roof.
Speaker 1: They eat pigeons.
Speaker 12: Get I get distracted easy, sorry, sir.
Speaker 13: So So I mean, for the most part, you know, most of the bands do fairly similar material, you know, so as was Dave was saying, what's gonna kind of set you apart the rest of people? You know, are you going to stand in and play a look at your shoes or you're gonna, you know, make fun of you know, Dave's suspenders or something like that.
Speaker 2: I knew there was something off in the right. I know, I don't have my suspenders on, and it's and you're not wearing a white T shirt.
Speaker 12: I know, Yeah, throwing the whole vibe off.
Speaker 14: It's all my fault if we if we stick, it's my fault, guys. And we can't call you straps today, I mean you can't.
Speaker 2: Just so, just so everybody knows too. You know, I don't think we cover this, but we're actually a cover band. That's true. There's a lot of bands that come in here. They they're either tribute band, or doing their own thing, and you know, we've all been involved in writing our own stuff. I mean I have a couple hundred songs sitting in my back pocket kind of thing, and you know, but we're out there playing for the people.
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, you know absolutely. How often do you guys play? Are you out like every weekend or.
Speaker 14: What we're getting there? Yeah, we're working on it, right. So we've been doing this a little over a year. We've been Oh so this is a little over.
Speaker 2: We're almost into two years.
Speaker 7: Yeah, just fun, yeah yeah, pretty new though, yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but again, we've you know, I mean Scott and I have played in a bunch of bands together. I mean we did a Kiss tribute. I joined a Kiss tribute that he was in, and then he played bass in my Van Haling tribute. I joined a cover band that he was in, and then you know, we've done others. We've just been I mean since two thousand and eight probably we've been in and out of bands together. And I don't know how long you guys have been playing together. They go back to when Dave was in Diapers. I think, oh wow, and that would have been before Juice Box over.
Speaker 2: There was even born and you know, I've been in bands with his stepdad, so like he was always upstairs listening to us play and always wanting to come down and jam with that stuff like that. So yeah, you know, we even though it's we're going on like two years, it's more like twenty.
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, it makes sense and thirty here yeah yeah, no, that makes sense.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we're playing covers and that's plus.
Speaker 12: I think one of the benefits of having.
Speaker 13: I guess wide age gap between you know, like Anthony and David, Me and Xander is is, you know, there's certain stuff that we like that we would love to play. But then I'll look at these guys. I'm like, all right, people your age, are they going to know this right, you know? And they're like no, you know, so so it kind of helps us balance out, you know, the material that we do. If we want to pull out the you know, the the deep cut thing, will they know that deep cut?
Speaker 2: And then you have Anthony who's like, I love it, I love it, let's play it, let's play it. And then I go, do you think any of your friends will know it? And he goes, I don't care. Well, that's don't listen to music.
Speaker 7: That's the thing.
Speaker 16: I've always been told that I've been an old soul.
Speaker 15: I mean, I'm twenty eight and I go back to like listening to I don't know everything from Led Zeppelin, Elvis, Presley, Van Halen, Motley Crue, and I remember being in high school. No one was listening to that stuff except for maybe a select few of people.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 15: And when I was in high school, I always wanted to be in a band with a bunch of guys that were musicians, and they just they're like, dude, you're so old school. We don't want to we don't want to play any of that stuff. We want to write like punk or or do with things like that. I was cool with doing it, but I just I never made it happen back then.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 15: Actually, I actually got kicked out of the out of the high school band room because I played the drum kit in front of a bunch of jazz people. My buddy, My buddy goes out there, He's like, dude, play some Van Halen. So I went up there and I played a Van Halen tune and then the director from Pinkard and Jazz Jazz Band or whatever came out just outed yelling at me and kicked me out.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 13: Yeah, Actually it's funny he mentioned that because we just had to talk the other day about he's an excellent drummer. I mean, you know, he's very limited in the stool today so you really can't quite but he's an excellent drummer. And uh but he just has that youthful energy and loud and wants to be you know, we had this talk actually at rehearsals this week that is there any way to kind of tone down his kit because because he's loud, it limits what some of the places that we can play, okay, you know, because you know from what we hear from some of the bars is that, oh yeah, you guys are great or I don't want to pat myself off the bag, you.
Speaker 12: Guys are good, but.
Speaker 13: But you know, right, but you just just you're just loud. So you know, we got to try and find a way to kind of tone it down a little. But I mean, he's got great enthusiasm. He's great, you know, and I love it and I don't want to squash that in him, but we just need to find a way to drop the volume a little.
Speaker 7: Yeah, all right, Well you want to play another one. I'm dying for another one.
Speaker 12: Yeah, what do you want to do?
Speaker 10: Cute if you're just joining us, We have a Waiting for Z live in studio with us on this Saturday morning.
Speaker 13: Really quick if you wanted before we get up Waiting for Z. Some people think that's kind of a weird name. Uh that Actually, here we go.
Speaker 12: Well, you knew it had to come to I knew, yeah, actually me too. So we were we had our first gig coming up.
Speaker 13: It was like a campground gig, and we had no idea what we're going to call it, you know, because of the age difference and stuff like that.
Speaker 12: We all had different ideas what the name should be, this and that. So we show up. Xander was forty five minutes.
Speaker 13: Late, and as the three of us were together and waiting, I think Anthony said something as always waiting for Xander.
Speaker 12: And I was like, Wow, there we go. We'll just call it waiting for Z waiting for He wasn't thrilled with it, but we talked him into it.
Speaker 1: But he also wasn't there, so we didn't get a much.
Speaker 2: I see Anthony itching over there, but before he jumps, and prior to that, we had an Excel spreadsheet of like eighty band names and then four cells next to it, and each person went and you know, we we each added yeah, and so obviously we exed our own what we liked or tech mark. When I sorted it to the most votes, there wasn't a single one that had all four of us, really yeah, and like there was like maybe two or three that had three, and we still all were like, eh, I don't know so, but I'll tell you.
Speaker 2: I may have been forty five minutes late, but we didn't start playing the gig.
Speaker 7: Lay Okay, that's important, So it's important.
Speaker 16: But one of the one of the choices was one of the one of the names we were going to come up with, was our two dads.
Speaker 1: I still think I had to do it. Yeah, but that's a whole different story.
Speaker 10: I was going to ask because I love hearing about rejected band names. Number two that was, That was number two.
Speaker 2: No in their their world, was not in the bands that was.
Speaker 14: Luckily, we vote on band names fifteen minutes before we go on stage.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, oh that's funny. That's funny.
Speaker 12: Already all right, Waiting for Z is where us live in studio. We decided decided to do the song for Xander, so okay for me, okay, okay.
Speaker 14: It's actually one of our biggest songs. When we play it right, it usually gets the biggest reaction, which is kind of something I'm.

Speaker 16: Give it to us, Give it to us, Give it to us, you know, Dave, your dad would be real proud of me right now.
Speaker 1: I bet he israel proud of you right now, Bud.
Speaker 16: I'm playing a one piece that.
Speaker 1: Sounded up in the comments if you would.
Speaker 7: Oh, that was so good, Xander. I don't think i've ever heard you sing a lead vocal ever. That was really cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wasn't not It wasn't that I wasn't allowed to sing back then. But you know singers who just sang, you know, they have a little bit of that. Well, that's my job, and so you're just the guitarist. So you know, years and years of singing backups and always doing the high harmonies got to a point where I'm like, hey, I want to sing, you know, and I want to sing. And then he got to a point where he was like, I don't care. I don't have to sing every song. So that's one of the things we, you know, we're trying to do in this band is all take a lead.
Speaker 2: We've been you know, pushing juice Box over there to get on it and pick a song that he wants to sing. And we've picked a couple of songs and then you know, we come in anybody work on it.
Speaker 16: And I'm still trying to find my range.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 16: It's just yeah, I'm gonna work with Dave.
Speaker 1: A little bit better. Yeah, we'll get there, buddy, we'll get Yeah.
Speaker 2: So you know, I mean Scott does most of the leads, then then then me Dave takes some. And and with Dave, when he takes a lead, it blows the roof off.
Speaker 1: Everybody calm down, you know, and and it and it you know.
Speaker 2: So it's it's limit on what he does because he doesn't want to, you know, kill that perfect voice.
Speaker 1: I got to skid row songs in me a night and then I'm done.
Speaker 2: And that's done all together like that just his background vocals. So we need him, you know, for everything.
Speaker 12: When you listen to his.
Speaker 13: Talk, you wouldn't realize, but he's actually has the highest voice out of all of us, brilliant.
Speaker 1: I'm fighting the flu a little bit, so it helps, but I can't. Yeah, you don't have it.
Speaker 2: You're not fighting the flu. You had the flu?
Speaker 1: Yeah, whoa.
Speaker 14: Everybody's good. Everybody's good the flu. But I'm still recovering from like the chest up.
Speaker 10: Yeah yeah, now understandable, understandable. Now you sound great? You all sound great? Is just like the earliest gig you guys have ever done, Like I'm sure you've had for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, what did we what did we do? Uh wait?
Speaker 1: But we did like a one o'clock show.
Speaker 12: Yeah, and that was that was kind of the earliest. Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you guys ever rehearsed this earlier?
Speaker 14: You're adding too many edhears something.
Speaker 12: I have to say though, and I hope it's okay to say this.
Speaker 13: Over the year, I was a little nervous coming and doing this, but then watching her do I don't know if I wouldn't call it needle point, but whatever you're doing over there has.
Speaker 12: A very calming presence.
Speaker 1: It really does.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm just like hanging out at my house now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, you know, out of the over here, half listening, you know what I mean? We got there.
Speaker 5: I love it. Did.
Speaker 10: Yeah, she's really good at it. I don't always say I don't understand. I like, I don't understand how she does it. My brain can't do the math because it's all geometry.
Speaker 1: I'm out. I'm out.
Speaker 7: Well, I know you don't think you're out.
Speaker 2: You're the mouth guy, though I failed here.
Speaker 1: I'm a nerd.
Speaker 7: What do you guys have coming up? Do you have you have specific gigs you want to mention.
Speaker 14: That we should have learned, We should have remembered that before we get Yeah, I believe the next one is the Nest on the on April eighteenth. Yeah, that's that's about right.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 16: Where is that the Nest that's in Plasta.
Speaker 1: That's a cool room, man, if you listen to show.
Speaker 12: Up, if you're a pool player, they have plenty of pool tables.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: That good dance floor. Who drinks, good food, great status.
Speaker 2: Yea April eighteenth, the Nest and Plastyle yep. Confirmed on on the calendar.
Speaker 1: There we're up at bike Week a couple of shows. Those are big ones this this summer so far, Lin's.
Speaker 2: And I don't know, Linz and Hudson. On June seventh, we are at bike Week, you know, the famous Laconia Bike Week. We are there at the wreck Yard. On June eighth teenth, which is a Wednesday, we're playing an early show from four to eight nice, and then we got a day off and then we're back at the wreck Yard on Friday, June twentieth, and that one we're playing from nine to midnight, so we're keeping the you know, everybody awake at that point.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 16: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And then after that we got a private party and uh, if you you know you want to go to that, you just got to find us on Facebook and message us because it's a private party, but it's at a campground, so people are allowed to come and it ends up being like, I don't know, they've charged you like five or ten bucks to get in or whatever, and it's a it's a good time. Oh yeah, they have this this snack shock place next to where we play.
Speaker 18: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're definitely no strangers to food.
Speaker 12: Yeah.
Speaker 15: What's fun about that gig is it's it's it's a potty you know. They had to have a good time and have fun. It's not like we're just playing to a venue to try to get people to dance and everything. It's just it's a relaxed, low key everyone's just chilling and loving life.
Speaker 2: Launch airs. Yeah, those carts yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the photo tractor carts.
Speaker 14: Or whatever they actually have if I remember correctly, they have magic shot glasses that seem to never be empty.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's true.
Speaker 12: What it was, it was weird.
Speaker 13: They would my drops and there would just be a shot glass that would just fill.
