6:02 Speaker 7: Yeah, so uh yeah, so guys, welcome to the show.

6:07 Speaker 7: Jenny and I saw you live at Swarmyfest. Oh okay, yep, yep,

6:12 Speaker 7: that was and and I'll tell you I so I

6:17 Speaker 7: had not heard Lone Wolf James prior to that, and

6:19 Speaker 7: I saw you on the schedule because we were there.

6:22 Speaker 7: We were there as a sponsors and representing the radio show.

6:26 Speaker 7: And I remember saying to Jenny after or during your set,

6:32 Speaker 7: I said, they sound like a band named Lone Wolf James,

6:37 Speaker 7: Like like you sounded like I expected you to sound

6:40 Speaker 7: based on the name. And please take that as a compliment,

6:41 Speaker 7: because I think the name is really cool and I

6:43 Speaker 7: really like your sound. But but yeah, so have you

6:47 Speaker 7: guys been around a while? Has the band been around

6:49 Speaker 7: for a long time? That's my impression that I actually

6:51 Speaker 7: I started it years ago and I was like.

6:56 Speaker 3: Playing acoustic on a stool doing open mic oh really, yeah,

7:00 Speaker 3: and that's how it all started. I had left the

7:01 Speaker 3: band and the whole I think Echo told you this before,

7:04 Speaker 3: but when I left the band, I was leaving all

7:07 Speaker 3: the crap behind.

7:08 Speaker 7: Yeah yeah.

7:09 Speaker 3: And the guy went, well, there goes Lone Wolves, and

7:11 Speaker 3: I was like, I'm going to use that. Oh yeah,

7:13 Speaker 3: so I use that my last name, James. I put

7:15 Speaker 3: them together. There was the Lone Wolf James. Yeah, and

7:18 Speaker 3: the fact that I'm part Native American kind of fit

7:20 Speaker 3: into so I was like, all right, I'm going to

7:22 Speaker 3: use that. But yeah, so I started it then, and

7:24 Speaker 3: there's been you know, over over the years, you add

7:26 Speaker 3: people and you do this to that. But I was

7:28 Speaker 3: I was trying to find like the right lineup because

7:31 Speaker 3: I was getting to the point where the band is

7:33 Speaker 3: starting to go from regional crossing into the national border. Yeah,

7:37 Speaker 3: and we'll get into that, you know. But as I

7:39 Speaker 3: did it, it was just like, you know, this is

7:41 Speaker 3: this is not the lineup that is going to do

7:44 Speaker 3: it so right. So we kind of like just been

7:45 Speaker 3: with me eleven years. He's like my right hand guy,

7:49 Speaker 3: and and we've all I've known Tim, We've known each

7:52 Speaker 3: other since we're fourteen. You know what I mean, so

7:55 Speaker 3: we were in our very first band together. I was

7:58 Speaker 3: a drummer back then, so it all kind of came together.

8:01 Speaker 10: You know.

8:02 Speaker 3: I would with fight and phone calls, you know what

8:04 Speaker 3: I mean, and all kind of felt. Jeff and Sherman

8:07 Speaker 3: had gone and tried out for the same band at

8:09 Speaker 3: one time, and then they were both like and nope,

8:12 Speaker 3: but they were friends. And then when I told Jeff

8:14 Speaker 3: that I was going to have Sherman come in audition, He's.

8:17 Speaker 5: Like, hire that guy, you know, and whatever. So it

8:20 Speaker 5: was just like it was kind of it was faded.

8:22 Speaker 3: Yeah, but this particular lineup now has been like you've

8:25 Speaker 3: been a couple of years now, right, and uh, we've

8:29 Speaker 3: we're like gone from the local to the regional and

8:33 Speaker 3: now we're tipping our hat into the national. We're playing

8:35 Speaker 3: with all national bands. Yeah yeah, because certain deals and

8:39 Speaker 3: connections and stuff.

8:40 Speaker 7: Oh yeah yeah. So is the band I mean, are

8:43 Speaker 7: you the only original member technically.

8:45 Speaker 5: Or yes, from the original a yeah, because it started

8:48 Speaker 5: with me.

8:49 Speaker 3: Yeah, and my first record, My first two first records

8:52 Speaker 3: were acoustic, okay, and I added like drums and stuff

8:55 Speaker 3: to it. But I mean the first couple of EPs

8:58 Speaker 3: are sold out, so that one that you played cradle

9:00 Speaker 3: off of was actually my was like the second full

9:03 Speaker 3: album and that's the only one still available really. Other

9:06 Speaker 3: other than you know, I have like a few of

9:08 Speaker 3: the one before that, but we've I've been in the

9:10 Speaker 3: studio for the last couple of years now recording this

9:13 Speaker 3: new EP with the guy from that works for Sony

9:16 Speaker 3: and Capital and oh very nice.

9:18 Speaker 5: So and you know, everybody has except for Sherman because

9:22 Speaker 5: it happened right before he joined the band.

9:24 Speaker 3: But yeah, but so he's the only one doesn't have

9:26 Speaker 3: to get yelled at in the studio, right, But other

9:30 Speaker 3: than that, yeah, I mean it all everybody here is

9:33 Speaker 3: the loan old James. Well, everybody brings something to the table.

9:35 Speaker 3: But it's it's like you have to have the head

9:38 Speaker 3: of the the the artpus so of course just kind

9:42 Speaker 3: of that, but yeah, I have to do the like

9:44 Speaker 3: the business part of it too. Yeah, you know, I

9:46 Speaker 3: take care of like the contracts and that kind of stuff.

9:49 Speaker 3: And then as far as like the songwriting goes, you know,

9:52 Speaker 3: I come up with an idea and I go I

9:54 Speaker 3: like this, and I sometimes I just go to his

9:56 Speaker 3: house and say, hey, this is what I got. Yeah,

9:59 Speaker 3: and he'll go, let's do the or whatever, you know,

10:01 Speaker 3: or I just bring it to the table and go, okay,

10:03 Speaker 3: this is like here's the pizza dough at the topping

10:06 Speaker 3: right right, and everybody kind of puts in their stuff

10:08 Speaker 3: and then.

10:09 Speaker 5: You know, you get ideas as it goes.

10:11 Speaker 7: But you know, is the original material that you did?

10:14 Speaker 7: Is that available online?

10:15 Speaker 6: Some of it?

10:16 Speaker 3: I mean, I think you had to like have been around.

10:20 Speaker 3: I released the first EP in two thousand, okay, so

10:23 Speaker 3: it was twenty five years ago.

10:24 Speaker 5: I mean I was just just coming out, just you know,

10:27 Speaker 5: just getting out of like.

10:28 Speaker 3: The cover band situation and a couple of a couple

10:31 Speaker 3: of local bands that weren't doing anything but garage, you know,

10:33 Speaker 3: yeah local maybe you know, once in a while a

10:36 Speaker 3: rock pile or something, but other than that, it was

10:39 Speaker 3: and I just wanted to get serious and they were

10:41 Speaker 3: all about drugs, and I was just.

10:44 Speaker 5: Like, I'm done with this, you know.

10:45 Speaker 3: And that's why he was he was trying to chafe

10:48 Speaker 3: me by saying, oh, that goes lone Wolf, like I'm

10:50 Speaker 3: gonna go off of my and I was like, you

10:51 Speaker 3: know what, I'm gonna use that.

10:53 Speaker 7: That's you know, that's pretty cool.

10:55 Speaker 4: You know that.

10:56 Speaker 7: You know, somebody threw that at you, trying to insult you,

10:58 Speaker 7: and you took that and said.

11:00 Speaker 3: And now they're going, oh Jesus, guys are playing with

11:02 Speaker 3: this guys and these guys and A's and you know,

11:05 Speaker 3: and the like yeah, who's laughing now? Yeah, you know,

11:08 Speaker 3: but that's that's really the way, and it's it's it's

11:10 Speaker 3: about the hard work that you put it in and stuff,

11:12 Speaker 3: and it's about the loyalty too, you know, Like these

11:14 Speaker 3: guys have played some I don't know, I'm surprised they

11:19 Speaker 3: didn't call me and call you crazy, you know, but

11:21 Speaker 3: some of the places that we've done and some of

11:23 Speaker 3: the things. Sherman's first gig with us was in this

11:26 Speaker 3: It was a it was a biker fast thing, but

11:29 Speaker 3: it was in somebody's yard and it was all it

11:32 Speaker 3: rained so bad, it was like mudfest two thousand and nine.

11:36 Speaker 5: I was like, oh my god. And he pulled in.

11:38 Speaker 3: I'm thinking, this kid is never coming back, you know,

11:41 Speaker 3: and whatever, and uh and we you know, we go

11:43 Speaker 3: from those to what we're doing now.

11:45 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, you know, very cool. Yeah. I saw pictures

11:49 Speaker 7: that you mentioned Ace Freeley, and I saw pictures of

11:52 Speaker 7: you guys Online with a Kiss is my favorite band.

11:55 Speaker 7: So I saw those I was like, oh, that's pretty cool.

11:57 Speaker 5: He was awesome, was he yet?

11:58 Speaker 7: I've heard I've heard yeah, Day to Attend?

12:02 Speaker 5: Who've Jeff?

12:03 Speaker 7: Yeah? The show you Jeff?

12:04 Speaker 5: Yeah?

12:05 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, those guys are great and uh yeah. They

12:07 Speaker 7: played with a set the Aura, I think in Portland,

12:11 Speaker 7: but I heard that Ace went on. I haven't seen

12:14 Speaker 7: Ace solo live for a very long time, but I've

12:17 Speaker 7: heard they went on that he went on very very late.

12:19 Speaker 7: Oh really that night? Yeah, I know. I guess it's

12:21 Speaker 7: kind of but your experience with him was positive.

12:23 Speaker 3: Yeah.

12:23 Speaker 5: And the funny thing is, and this, I love Days

12:25 Speaker 5: to Attend. They're great guys.

12:26 Speaker 7: Oh yeah.

12:26 Speaker 3: We were supposed to play that show and I had

12:29 Speaker 3: prior engagement so I turned it down. Yeah, And then

12:32 Speaker 3: I found out that they got the opening slots.

12:33 Speaker 5: I was like, oh great, yeah, that's great for them.

12:35 Speaker 3: Yeah, and the manager of Ace called my agent and

12:40 Speaker 3: came back and said, can they play the Blue Ocean

12:43 Speaker 3: since they can't do the Aura? Oh yeah, And I

12:45 Speaker 3: was like, yeah, we can do that. Yeah, but no,

12:47 Speaker 3: we didn't have any any any at all. In fact,

12:49 Speaker 3: that's good, you know, We had played with some other nationals,

12:52 Speaker 3: big nationals before that, and we didn't really get them,

12:55 Speaker 3: with the exception of like a couple didn't really get

12:57 Speaker 3: to meet anybody real kind of hit away in So

13:01 Speaker 3: I never went into it thinking we're gonna meet Ace,

13:04 Speaker 3: you know.

13:05 Speaker 5: And we did our show and the and the crowd.

13:07 Speaker 3: Loved us, and it was a line at our echoes booth,

13:10 Speaker 3: you know, for the merch and all that stuff, and

13:13 Speaker 3: the guy come, We're doing our meet and greet because

13:15 Speaker 3: we do what every show, signing autographs and you know,

13:18 Speaker 3: take a picture some stuff. And one of the guys

13:21 Speaker 3: that owns the Blue Ocean came running up to me.

13:23 Speaker 3: He looked kind of frazzled, and he's like, is your

13:26 Speaker 3: whole band here? And I'm like yeah, I'm like they're

13:29 Speaker 3: over there doing the meet and greets, right, Yeah. He's like, okay,

13:31 Speaker 3: you gotta come up back. Ace wants to see you.

13:34 Speaker 3: So now I'm thinking, yeah, well, I didn't know if

13:35 Speaker 3: it was nicer he was gonna rip us. I didn't

13:38 Speaker 3: know if we did something wrong, so I was like,

13:40 Speaker 3: uh sure, So I go in and grab the guys

13:43 Speaker 3: and I'm like, let's just go out back and we

13:46 Speaker 3: passed all these VIP guys, you know, people with VIP

13:49 Speaker 3: passes and stuff. I still don't know what's going on.

13:52 Speaker 3: And then we get to the wall and he goes,

13:54 Speaker 3: you know, hold on, I'm going to take a picture

13:56 Speaker 3: of you. So I'm thinking, oh, maybe Ace takes a

13:58 Speaker 3: picture of all the opening said he gets for whatever reason.

14:01 Speaker 4: Yeah.

14:02 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm still thinking this is why we're back here.

14:05 Speaker 3: And then this door opens and here he comes at

14:07 Speaker 3: six foot five or whatever.

14:08 Speaker 5: He's huge, he's so tall. Guy, he is he must

14:12 Speaker 5: have been wearing he was wearing cowboy bodes. Really yeah,

14:14 Speaker 5: I mean.

14:15 Speaker 7: Because I noticed in the pictures he's towering over you guys,

14:18 Speaker 7: and I'm like, this, isn't that tall?

14:19 Speaker 10: Yeah? Five eight?

14:22 Speaker 5: You know.

14:23 Speaker 3: So he but he came out, shook our hands, said

14:25 Speaker 3: you know, he loved what we played and thanked us.

14:28 Speaker 3: We thanked him, and he put his arms around us,

14:29 Speaker 3: took some pictures. Yeah, and then we went back to

14:31 Speaker 3: the things. So we weren't expecting that. Yeah, you know,

14:33 Speaker 3: so that was very cool of.

14:34 Speaker 7: Him, that is, you know, that's extremely cool.

14:37 Speaker 4: Yeah.

14:37 Speaker 7: Yeah, who else have you? Who else have you opened?

14:40 Speaker 3: For as far as far as legends, like I, uh

14:45 Speaker 3: was it with this present lineup? But I did Zeezy

14:48 Speaker 3: Top and Skinned on the same bill. Yeah, but we've

14:51 Speaker 3: done everything from It's funny because we're my agent now.

14:55 Speaker 3: The one thing he loves about us is he can

14:57 Speaker 3: put us in any category from seventies to the two

15:00 Speaker 3: thousands to whatever. So yeah, we have literally done like

15:04 Speaker 3: eighties bands where we're playing with like enough's enough. We've

15:07 Speaker 3: played with Jackal, I've done Cinderella, you know, Faster pussy Cat.

15:11 Speaker 3: Then you turn around and they put us with all

15:13 Speaker 3: the Bridge, Theory of a Dead Man, Blackstone Cherry, you know,

15:17 Speaker 3: Buck Cherry, all these other bands, and then you go

15:19 Speaker 3: to bands like Edema and head Pe and you know

15:24 Speaker 3: when we played with Saliva and so Powerman five thousand

15:27 Speaker 3: is coming up, you know what I mean. So he

15:29 Speaker 3: loves the fact that he yeah, we did with Lynch Bombs.

15:32 Speaker 3: So it's like nice we have all these different He

15:34 Speaker 3: loves the fact that we don't have to just go hey,

15:35 Speaker 3: it can only put you guys with this type of music,

15:38 Speaker 3: Like we have done everything from the seventies, eighties, nineties

15:42 Speaker 3: and thousands, you know. And the good thing about that

15:45 Speaker 3: is he's just like, well, your branch of music can

15:48 Speaker 3: go from a twenty five year old to a seventy

15:50 Speaker 3: five year old. Yeah, you know what I mean, So

15:51 Speaker 3: you have a fifty year gap, which a lot of

15:53 Speaker 3: bands don't have, and especially for a younger act like us.

15:57 Speaker 5: You know, these bands that we're playing.

15:59 Speaker 3: With are all fifteen years older than we are, you know,

16:02 Speaker 3: so it's kind of like, well, we kind of got

16:04 Speaker 3: into a niche where it fit for us.

16:06 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, but a lot of a lot of

16:08 Speaker 5: those bands, I mean, we've we've done a lot of.

16:10 Speaker 3: Nationals from lower nationals that like the like uh you know,

16:15 Speaker 3: something that was around in the eighties, to legends like Ace.

16:19 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's fantastic. Yeah, have you in terms of I mean,

16:25 Speaker 7: do you get out of New England to watch for

16:26 Speaker 7: those kind of shows?

16:28 Speaker 8: Yeah?

16:28 Speaker 3: I mean I did a couple of stints myself in Nashville.

16:31 Speaker 7: Nice.

16:31 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I played the Bluebird and stuff like that.

16:33 Speaker 3: But the band right now, the core of us is

16:37 Speaker 3: I mean usually I hate to say it, but it

16:38 Speaker 3: usually comes down to money and things like that. And

16:41 Speaker 3: I mean everybody here has got you know, I'm the

16:44 Speaker 3: only one that's really not married. You know what, I mean, yeah,

16:46 Speaker 3: so it's it's kind of like one of those type

16:48 Speaker 3: of deals. So I what I do is I keep

16:50 Speaker 3: it enough for everybody to go. Look, I made a

16:54 Speaker 3: deal with them and I said, we'll start will go

16:57 Speaker 3: from Maine to Jersey. Yeah, you know, and I go

17:01 Speaker 3: in anything past that. I mean, obviously I'll give plenty

17:03 Speaker 3: of notice and all that stuff. But this way, everything's

17:06 Speaker 3: a day away, you know, a.

17:07 Speaker 5: Few hours, you know. That way, it's like, okay, you know,

17:10 Speaker 5: if we're.

17:10 Speaker 3: Playing I'm telling you in two months, we're playing four

17:13 Speaker 3: shows and we're going from Maine to Rhode Island and Connecticut.

17:16 Speaker 5: The to Jersey to back to me then no, you

17:19 Speaker 5: know what I mean.

17:19 Speaker 3: And they can put in for and in that way,

17:21 Speaker 3: it's not like I'm calling them, Hey, we're leaving for

17:23 Speaker 3: New York tomorrow, right, you know what, So we kind

17:26 Speaker 3: of you kind of have to deal with the pros

17:29 Speaker 3: and cons of it. But if I want the lineup

17:32 Speaker 3: that we got, you know, and which I don't want

17:35 Speaker 3: them stuck sticking me with people that I don't know,

17:38 Speaker 3: you know, So it's just kind of like, all right,

17:40 Speaker 3: this is what we'll do, and and be honest with

17:41 Speaker 3: you until the gigs are worth going past that. It's

17:46 Speaker 3: it's you know what I mean, like, unless they're gonna

17:48 Speaker 3: give me a lot of money to go play for

17:50 Speaker 3: somebody that's in California. I mean, we'd love to go

17:53 Speaker 3: play the Whiskey, but how are we gonna do it?

17:56 Speaker 3: You know, you know, I'm not spending seven grand to

17:59 Speaker 3: get to California, you know.

18:00 Speaker 5: Yeah, So I mean he's asked us.

18:03 Speaker 3: Yeah, the guy that books the Whiskey's asked us twice.

18:05 Speaker 5: All right, Oh, no kidding, Yeah, So I just it's

18:09 Speaker 5: all in time. Yeah, it'll happen.

18:11 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's just going to be when it's

18:13 Speaker 3: a little bit more efficient to everybody, you know.

18:16 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm curious if too, if anybody has any other

18:20 Speaker 7: projects that you're involved in, because I'm thinking of you

18:22 Speaker 7: Sherman specifically, because every drummer that we have on the show,

18:26 Speaker 7: almost every drummer, although Space Casino our guests in the

18:29 Speaker 7: last hour were a rare exception, but almost every drummer

18:31 Speaker 7: we have on the show is in like ten different bands. Nope,

18:35 Speaker 7: I I spend all my time these guys, no kidding.

18:39 Speaker 7: That's awesome. Well, it's cool that you know, I mean,

18:41 Speaker 7: you guys play enough that, you know to keep you busy, right, Yeah.

18:46 Speaker 8: One of the things that you know, I dabble in recording.

18:49 Speaker 8: And because I don't have my studio set up right now.

18:52 Speaker 8: We moved here from Houston, and once I get my

18:55 Speaker 8: studio set up, then we can start recording our stuff.

18:58 Speaker 8: Right now, I'm just recording our rehearsals. Okay, so we

19:02 Speaker 8: kind of flushed things out and yeah, just kind of

19:04 Speaker 8: experiment there. But but as far as you know, I'm

19:10 Speaker 8: not opposed to getting involved with a recording project, but

19:14 Speaker 8: performing no, okay, because I and I've been approached a

19:18 Speaker 8: few times. It's just that I tell them, you know, Okay,

19:21 Speaker 8: but you know my priorities with Lone Wolf James. Yeah, yeah,

19:25 Speaker 8: so that's even on my my band Mixed Photos is yeah. Yeah,

19:30 Speaker 8: I'm the drummer for Lone Wolf James. Yeah, this is

19:33 Speaker 8: my first priority.

19:34 Speaker 7: Because I have I have a theory that you know,

19:36 Speaker 7: when you're when you're growing up and you first get

19:38 Speaker 7: interested in playing a musical instrument, you got to have

19:39 Speaker 7: the conversation with the parents. If you approach them with

19:42 Speaker 7: either the drums or maybe the tuba, they're they're trying

19:47 Speaker 7: to talk you out of it. And that's why drummers

19:48 Speaker 7: are in such high demand, I think, because a lot

19:51 Speaker 7: of parents try to talk their kids out of Now

19:52 Speaker 7: you don't want to play.

19:54 Speaker 5: They had the trumpet and then the drums.

19:59 Speaker 7: You're drum first, Yeah wow, yeah, but oh boy, you.

20:03 Speaker 5: Played the trumpet. It started off in trumpet.

20:06 Speaker 3: We ain't even getting into that story. Go ahead, and

20:08 Speaker 3: Sherman keep talking.

20:10 Speaker 8: That's funny.

20:10 Speaker 7: I started on the vio. Yeah, yeah, Oh that's cool.

20:14 Speaker 7: That's cool. Now, how many how many songs do you

20:18 Speaker 7: have as a band, because you've got you've got one

20:22 Speaker 7: full length album, right, but you've got others.

20:24 Speaker 3: Have two full length albums, and there's two before that,

20:27 Speaker 3: there's three EPs.

20:29 Speaker 7: Oh okay, we're a lot of material now yeah.

20:31 Speaker 3: Yeah, but where we I mean, unfortunately, on stage you

20:34 Speaker 3: only get about forty five minutes.

20:36 Speaker 5: So we're we're taking with Sherman.

20:39 Speaker 3: Now, we know probably let's say fifteen sixteen songs, okay,

20:43 Speaker 3: and we dabble in twelve of them for the for

20:45 Speaker 3: the shows, we switch stuff in and out and whatever.

20:48 Speaker 7: Yeah, but as a.

20:49 Speaker 3: Unit, like they're still Like the other day, we were

20:52 Speaker 3: bringing up songs that I hadn't played in fifteen years,

20:55 Speaker 3: you know, and they were just like, hey, you know,

20:56 Speaker 3: what if what if we do this? You know, and

20:59 Speaker 3: or hey I haven't heard that one or whatever. So

21:01 Speaker 3: my old stuff is still brand new to them. It's

21:03 Speaker 3: like saying I came in with a new record, right so,

21:06 Speaker 3: And the good thing is is, like I said, the

21:08 Speaker 3: first couple were acoustic. They were drums and stuff, but

21:11 Speaker 3: there were acoustic versions of the songs. So to bring

21:14 Speaker 3: it in with a massive band and have that full

21:16 Speaker 3: band sound now, I mean when I traded my acoustic

21:19 Speaker 3: in for a marginal and Les Paul, I was like, Okay,

21:22 Speaker 3: this is serious. We're moving forward.

21:24 Speaker 5: And then you add.

21:25 Speaker 3: Everybody and the next thing, you know, it's like, gee,

21:27 Speaker 3: what would this like. There's a song that we're doing

21:30 Speaker 3: now that I want to record that I only have

21:31 Speaker 3: an acoustic version of and we do play it once

21:33 Speaker 3: in a while called Native Groove, and it's one of

21:35 Speaker 3: my favorites. And that was strictly me on acoustic with

21:40 Speaker 3: some drums and a little bass, that's all it was.

21:42 Speaker 8: It was.

21:43 Speaker 3: It was big sounded, you know, and I was like, man,

21:45 Speaker 3: imagine what this would sound like with a band. So

21:48 Speaker 3: we brought it in and now you add Sherman. You

21:51 Speaker 3: had Jeff, you know, and you had Tim with my guitar,

21:54 Speaker 3: and it's like, wow, this is just like a wall

21:57 Speaker 3: of sound, you know. So this is that's one of

21:59 Speaker 3: the first tracks because I want to record after we'd

22:01 Speaker 3: get done with this one, you know, like when they

22:03 Speaker 3: come to us and say.

22:04 Speaker 5: Hey, I need more material, you bet.

22:06 Speaker 3: Yeah, write in the studio because we got a couple

22:08 Speaker 3: of songs written that we want to do, and that's

22:11 Speaker 3: high on my list.

22:13 Speaker 7: I mean, it's good to have things that are ready

22:14 Speaker 7: to ready to work on, you know, you know, uh,

22:18 Speaker 7: trying to come up with ideas, you know.

22:19 Speaker 3: And we've written some new ones, like there's a song

22:21 Speaker 3: that we're dabbling on right now that Jeff and I

22:24 Speaker 3: kind of we're trying to put together. And then it

22:26 Speaker 3: was called Showtime, and and another one I want to

22:29 Speaker 3: Be Bad, we wrote.

22:30 Speaker 5: I wanted to do like a a c DC bass groove,

22:34 Speaker 5: like like the Jack, you know, and I.

22:37 Speaker 3: Kind of wanted to do something like that where it's

22:38 Speaker 3: all like sexual talking instead of singing, and it's and

22:41 Speaker 3: I said, but I need this certain, So I went

22:43 Speaker 3: to I went to his house, and he's like, what

22:45 Speaker 3: do you want me to play? And I'm like, just

22:47 Speaker 3: go bom bom. Think of like running with the Devil,

22:50 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, you know, like type of

22:51 Speaker 3: type thing. And he did that, and uh, we kind

22:53 Speaker 3: of put this stuff in together, and Tim came in

22:55 Speaker 3: is like, you know what'd be great there some of

22:57 Speaker 3: this wah guitar you know, and all that stuff, and

22:59 Speaker 3: then you know, Sherman's just looking at us.

23:01 Speaker 5: I like, just play a beat.

23:03 Speaker 4: You know.

23:04 Speaker 5: He finally gets in figure out what he wants to do.

23:06 Speaker 3: But they came together and I was like, wow, and

23:08 Speaker 3: we were actually gonna play that on these upcoming shows.

23:11 Speaker 5: Oh, very cool. I want to be bad. It's gonna

23:12 Speaker 5: be late on those.

23:14 Speaker 7: So yeah, you've got Enough's enough coming up. You said

23:16 Speaker 7: you're gonna be opening for them, Yes, yeah, that's good.

23:19 Speaker 3: We're doing a tour leg of a tour with them,

23:22 Speaker 3: you are, Yeah, we're doing it doing I think it's Manchester,

23:25 Speaker 3: Connecticut and Rhode Island.

23:27 Speaker 6: Yeah.

23:27 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're doing three nights in a row with them

23:30 Speaker 3: in June.

23:31 Speaker 7: I always said they were underrated. Fly High, Michelle, I think,

23:34 Speaker 7: is such a great song, and it's one of those songs.

23:36 Speaker 7: You mentioned it to people now they don't even remember it.

23:38 Speaker 3: You know. It's funny too, because Chip is singing. I

23:40 Speaker 3: think now I don't think it's the it's the original

23:42 Speaker 3: singer anymore. I think Chip's enough to the bass player.

23:46 Speaker 3: I think he's he's the original member obviously, but I

23:48 Speaker 3: think I think I could be wrong, but I think

23:51 Speaker 3: he's singing.

23:51 Speaker 5: Oh okay, yeah, I think he's a singer. But he

23:53 Speaker 5: kept the name.

23:54 Speaker 7: Okay, but you mentioned lynch Mob too. You open for

23:57 Speaker 7: lynch Mob?

23:57 Speaker 5: Yeah, down down in Webster.

23:59 Speaker 7: Oh that must have been cool. Yeah, that first Lynch

24:03 Speaker 7: Mob album. Again, this is no one, no one even remembers.

24:05 Speaker 7: But Wicked Sensation. Yeah, this one of my that would

24:09 Speaker 7: be in my top ten all time, just so so good.

24:13 Speaker 3: Well, it was funny because this was this is where

24:14 Speaker 3: I bring Tim in to that show because I, you know,

24:18 Speaker 3: George Lynch Hello, yeah, yeah, he's a league guitar player.

24:20 Speaker 5: So I told I kept busting his chops.

24:22 Speaker 3: I kept saying, do you realize in the same month

24:24 Speaker 3: you have to open for for you know, for basically

24:27 Speaker 3: George Lynch and a's freely and he's.

24:29 Speaker 7: Just like shut up.

24:31 Speaker 5: So we were going over Andre playing.

24:33 Speaker 3: We did our set and we played Lynch and then

24:35 Speaker 3: Tim and I are on the side of the stage. Ye,

24:37 Speaker 3: and George Lynch is right there, yeah, and.

24:39 Speaker 5: He's just playing. And I look over at Tim and

24:41 Speaker 5: he's just looking up at Georgie looks at me. He's

24:42 Speaker 5: got this like kid a Christmas look. So I'll let

24:48 Speaker 5: him take it.

24:49 Speaker 9: He even gave me a little nod because like I

24:52 Speaker 9: tried to squeeze in just a little piece of I

24:56 Speaker 9: didn't think he noticed, but he barely looked at me

24:59 Speaker 9: off stage, but I was side stage and he turned

25:02 Speaker 9: around and he did like a little rift that I do.

25:06 Speaker 7: No kidding, And then I was like, that's really cool.

25:11 Speaker 7: What was he all buff? Too? Was his big body

25:15 Speaker 7: building phase?

25:15 Speaker 5: Yeah?

25:16 Speaker 9: Oh he wasn't like that super buff. Yeah really yeah,

25:19 Speaker 9: he's concentrating all this.

25:20 Speaker 7: Yeah. Yeah, So but you've got enough enough coming up.

25:24 Speaker 10: But what was it?

25:24 Speaker 7: There was there was another one.

25:25 Speaker 5: Power Man five thousands coming.

25:28 Speaker 7: Yeah.

25:28 Speaker 3: We got a leg of a tour with them, and

25:30 Speaker 3: it's it's them and head pe ands like that, and

25:33 Speaker 3: we just got off the road head p because they

25:35 Speaker 3: were on the Saliva leg that we did. We did

25:38 Speaker 3: Saliva okay, and you know Josie Scott and what about

25:42 Speaker 3: nin What are we doing Nazareth?

25:45 Speaker 5: Oh Nazareth, Yeah that's a big yeah.

25:51 Speaker 7: Sweet.

25:51 Speaker 5: So that's what I mean.

25:52 Speaker 3: They got legends like Ace and Nazareth, and then we

25:55 Speaker 3: have you know, the Power Man, five thousands, the Saliva's

25:58 Speaker 3: you know, you know, we're trying to get hooked up

26:02 Speaker 3: with a couple of things that you know, I really

26:04 Speaker 3: I can't say anything of who they are yet because

26:07 Speaker 3: until the ink as dry as they say, but I

26:10 Speaker 3: think this summer, later in this summer, we're going to

26:13 Speaker 3: get some bigger you know, the whole point if it

26:16 Speaker 3: was to try to get in with a lot of

26:17 Speaker 3: these bands that and in order. What people don't get

26:20 Speaker 3: is like the management companies and the agents are all interacting.

26:25 Speaker 3: So if you're playing with this band, they're the same

26:28 Speaker 3: agent as this band, and you ain't gonna play with

26:30 Speaker 3: that band?

26:30 Speaker 5: Do you play with this band? You know, like the

26:32 Speaker 5: or this venue without that venue and that kind of stuff.

26:36 Speaker 3: So the right now the contracts I'm doing the bands.

26:39 Speaker 3: It's great because you get to have a colectic of

26:42 Speaker 3: all these Like we opened the first tour we did

26:44 Speaker 3: was Tantric Okay, I only knew one song from Trick.

26:47 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, and now.

26:49 Speaker 3: They're like the coolest guys, you know what I mean,

26:51 Speaker 3: Like we hung out every night all weekend.

26:54 Speaker 5: We hung out with them every night backstage or real

26:56 Speaker 5: good to us.

26:57 Speaker 2: You know.

26:58 Speaker 3: In fact, Hugo even approached me about, you know, maybe

27:02 Speaker 3: producing one of my next songs and something like that. Okay,

27:04 Speaker 3: so we'll see what happens with that. But but you know,

27:07 Speaker 3: in general, they were just cool guys. Yeah, they were

27:10 Speaker 3: really you know, we were and we're looking forward to

27:12 Speaker 3: to tour with them again. But we did that tour,

27:14 Speaker 3: I didn't know who they were other than you know,

27:16 Speaker 3: that one song or whatever. But but then it came

27:18 Speaker 3: out and you're like, wow, these guys are really good.

27:20 Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, they had a few hits. Yeah, Morning

27:23 Speaker 7: was the big ballad, which I really like that song.

27:26 Speaker 7: I can't remember what else, but.

27:27 Speaker 5: No breakdown was that breakthrough breakdown?

27:29 Speaker 2: Yeah, but there was.

27:31 Speaker 3: But I mean, you know, it's it's so rare that

27:33 Speaker 3: you see because there's always an interconnection to like a

27:37 Speaker 3: lot of people don't know that Hugo's connected into the

27:39 Speaker 3: Bett and Court family, you know, and all that stuff

27:41 Speaker 3: and It's funny because I knew all those guys, so

27:44 Speaker 3: it was kind of like, oh, okay, so we kind

27:46 Speaker 3: of know the thame like, we're going we're going to

27:48 Speaker 3: play a local show. We're not doing too many local shows,

27:51 Speaker 3: and we're playing a local show at the Raven, which

27:53 Speaker 3: is Chris Betton Courts Club.

27:55 Speaker 5: Who's Nudo's cousins, no brother. It's all connected, you know

27:59 Speaker 5: what I mean?

28:00 Speaker 3: I mean, it's all connected. So yeah, it's you just

28:03 Speaker 3: have you make the right friends, right places.

28:05 Speaker 8: You know.

28:06 Speaker 7: I'm curious because a lot of you know, a lot

28:07 Speaker 7: of music industry people listen to the show. Do you

28:11 Speaker 7: do you enjoy the business side of it? It seems

28:14 Speaker 7: like you do the way that you talk about it.

28:16 Speaker 7: But I know, but but maybe not, I'm the truth.

28:19 Speaker 5: I mean, I know.

28:22 Speaker 7: I mean, obviously you'd rather not have to do that

28:25 Speaker 7: part and focus on the creative part. I know, But

28:27 Speaker 7: but it seems like you or you or you seem

28:29 Speaker 7: like you understand the business part of it at least,

28:31 Speaker 7: which is puts you ahead of a lot of musicians.

28:35 Speaker 3: Used to be very overwhelming y now it makes you

28:38 Speaker 3: kind of a hole, but you have to be because

28:42 Speaker 3: if you're not They're gonna walk all over you.

28:44 Speaker 5: You know, absolutely, So like the biggest thing I do.

28:47 Speaker 3: Like a lot of people think, oh, you know Loan James,

28:49 Speaker 3: he named the band after him and he's a singer. Yeah,

28:51 Speaker 3: I wish that was the case. That would be so

28:53 Speaker 3: much easier, right, But it's like, but I tell people

28:57 Speaker 3: all the time, and I say this to even these guys,

28:59 Speaker 3: and it's not a down shoot because I love them. Yeah,

29:01 Speaker 3: I said this is you guys are part of it,

29:04 Speaker 3: and you get to walk away and go home.

29:06 Speaker 10: Right.

29:06 Speaker 3: I don't get the lead lon Wolf James because I

29:08 Speaker 3: am him right, so, well, everybody else is doing whatever

29:11 Speaker 3: they're doing. I'm handling contracts and phone calls and you know,

29:15 Speaker 3: and all this venue change this or this guy's been

29:17 Speaker 3: like we just we were supposed to play with La

29:19 Speaker 3: Guns right here in Manchester in October and because they

29:24 Speaker 3: played the Tupelo last night, which Tim went to, y.

29:26 Speaker 5: You know they went, you know they went last night.

29:29 Speaker 7: I didn't even know.

29:30 Speaker 3: Yeah, amazing they pulled the show I was already contracted for.

29:36 Speaker 4: You know.

29:36 Speaker 3: So it's kind of like one of those like okay,

29:38 Speaker 3: well you know, what are you gonna do? You know,

29:40 Speaker 3: it has nothing to do with me personally, right, so

29:42 Speaker 3: now I have to wait we do it. But it's

29:44 Speaker 3: like little things like that, or you know, you don't

29:47 Speaker 3: get you get to a you have everything in your

29:50 Speaker 3: contract about a venue and you get to the venue

29:53 Speaker 3: and there's no place for the band to change or

29:54 Speaker 3: park and they want you to pay the park, like

29:56 Speaker 3: you want me to pay the park.

29:57 Speaker 5: I'm playing, you know what I mean.

29:59 Speaker 3: So it's kind of like that's where you go, okay,

30:02 Speaker 3: because only so far you're gonna go, even just yourself,

30:06 Speaker 3: you have to get an agent. You have to get

30:08 Speaker 3: So what I did was I had an agent from

30:11 Speaker 3: years ago, and he hooked us up like Jeff's first

30:14 Speaker 3: show with us.

30:15 Speaker 5: I think it was Jackal. I mean he put us

30:18 Speaker 5: right here.

30:18 Speaker 3: At Jewels and yeah, and it was like, you know,

30:23 Speaker 3: he booked us with that, and so I knew him

30:25 Speaker 3: for years and but basically I ended up calling him

30:29 Speaker 3: and saying, how much to hire you want as a

30:31 Speaker 3: consultant just for us, just to do this blah blah blah,

30:35 Speaker 3: because I said, I'm getting calls and I'm doing these things,

30:37 Speaker 3: and I'm like, I need somebody who can haggle for me.

30:41 Speaker 3: That can talk contracts with these people and then gives

30:43 Speaker 3: me the contract, so I understand it, you know, without

30:47 Speaker 3: all the bull you know. So that's basically all it did.

30:50 Speaker 3: And then with the fact that I've in the studio

30:53 Speaker 3: recording right now, and the and the producer that is

30:56 Speaker 3: recording us is he is huge. He he did stuff

31:02 Speaker 3: with Ray Charles, you know, Elton John with the Franklin

31:06 Speaker 3: Guns and Roses ac DC. So he yeah, he's he's

31:09 Speaker 3: worked with them all and he's in the studio producing

31:12 Speaker 3: this next record. So he's got us working on a deal,

31:17 Speaker 3: whether it's Sony or whatever. So hopefully that comes through.

31:22 Speaker 3: But with that happening, you get a buzz. People see

31:26 Speaker 3: who you were recording with, See what's going on. Well,

31:28 Speaker 3: these guys aren't kidding, you know, they're in Like you

31:31 Speaker 3: see the studio on Man, you know, and that kind

31:34 Speaker 3: of stuff, and people are like wow. Then you go

31:36 Speaker 3: from that and you get the right consultant who knows

31:39 Speaker 3: you and knows you're not just talking. And next thing

31:43 Speaker 3: you know, he's like, well, I'll give you a chance

31:44 Speaker 3: like his our are put our toes in the water

31:48 Speaker 3: for him? Was I know you can play a one

31:50 Speaker 3: off I'm gonna put you on toe with Tan Trick. Yeah,

31:53 Speaker 3: don't disappoint us, you know what I mean, because if

31:55 Speaker 3: it comes back and you hear all this noise.

31:56 Speaker 5: He's gonna go any booking.

31:57 Speaker 7: These guys.

32:02 Speaker 3: Broke his foot right before the tour, and he looked

32:05 Speaker 3: at me right after it happened.

32:06 Speaker 5: He goes, do not cancel those shows?

32:10 Speaker 7: Oh wow?

32:11 Speaker 5: Yeah, so it.

32:14 Speaker 7: Was my fault. Oh my god. So you have how

32:18 Speaker 7: many shows did you have to play that way?

32:20 Speaker 10: We did?

32:21 Speaker 5: We did three or four of them.

32:22 Speaker 10: Yeah.

32:24 Speaker 8: As a matter of fact, I think I took the

32:26 Speaker 8: boot off when we did Lyunch Mob because we were

32:32 Speaker 8: shooting the video. Because I took the boot off for

32:36 Speaker 8: that seconds. I didn't want to have this gigantic Yeah.

32:39 Speaker 3: We were like the second night in on the Tancer Show.

32:42 Speaker 3: Oh wow, he's back there and he's you know, he's

32:45 Speaker 3: got this big boot and I'm just like, I'm looking

32:49 Speaker 3: back at him on stage and he's playing his heart

32:51 Speaker 3: out right.

32:52 Speaker 5: And then in the Alchemy, we were playing.

32:53 Speaker 3: This place called the Alchemy is a great, great venue

32:55 Speaker 3: down in Providence, right, and.

32:57 Speaker 5: It was pretty packed.

40:21 Speaker 7: Wolf James here in studio with us. If you are

40:24 Speaker 7: listening live on this Saturday morning, and uh hopefully it

40:29 Speaker 7: is uh sunny where you are, but probably not. You

40:34 Speaker 7: got Yeah, you guys are all uh you're you're pretty scattered.

40:37 Speaker 7: I know we were talking about it. Off. Are you

40:38 Speaker 7: guys are pretty scattered right in terms of where you

40:40 Speaker 7: all live?

40:41 Speaker 3: Right?

40:41 Speaker 5: Yeah?

40:43 Speaker 7: Does that make it well? Actually, though, although I think

40:46 Speaker 7: you had said earlier too, you're playing so many shows

40:47 Speaker 7: you don't necessarily need to get together for too many rehearsals, right,

40:51 Speaker 7: but but it must make it a little challenging, right,

40:52 Speaker 7: but it shows it shows a level of commitment to

40:55 Speaker 7: that you have, that you're able to be be kind

40:57 Speaker 7: of scattered and you know, live far away from each other,

41:00 Speaker 7: but still you know, put in the time to get

41:03 Speaker 7: together and and work on the band.

41:05 Speaker 3: Sherman actually kind of came to the rescue on that

41:07 Speaker 3: one when when I had my studio. My dad died

41:11 Speaker 3: years ago, and I had put built a studio, rehearsal

41:13 Speaker 3: studio downstairs my mom. My mom lived upstairs and and

41:17 Speaker 3: I had my studio downstairs, so the band would always

41:20 Speaker 3: just come there, and I was down a mass Yeah,

41:22 Speaker 3: and unfortunately this passed Oarcoba, she passed away.

41:25 Speaker 5: So when she passed away, you know, I had to

41:28 Speaker 5: sell her house and all that.

41:29 Speaker 3: Yeah, we were looking around for places to go blah blah,

41:32 Speaker 3: and Sherman was just kind of like, just bring it

41:34 Speaker 3: to my house, okay.

41:35 Speaker 5: And then we went up there and we you know, he.

41:37 Speaker 3: Has a he has a bunch of gear and studio,

41:39 Speaker 3: so he he cleared out one of his rooms at

41:41 Speaker 3: his house. Yeah, and up in Wakefield, so that's where

41:43 Speaker 3: we were rehearsed now, so excellent, and so he kind

41:46 Speaker 3: of came to the rescue on that one, because yeah,

41:48 Speaker 3: it's private and we can get there, we can play

41:51 Speaker 3: when we want to, you know. And but yeah, my

41:54 Speaker 3: goal was to keep us so busy. We're not just

41:57 Speaker 3: sitting in our rehearsal room concert, right, I mean, if

41:59 Speaker 3: we have something we want to work on, great, yeah,

42:01 Speaker 3: you know, but like we took April off, and I

42:04 Speaker 3: think this is the most we've rehearsed, we've had like

42:06 Speaker 3: we got today, It's it'll be like the third one

42:08 Speaker 3: in a row.

42:09 Speaker 10: You know.

42:10 Speaker 3: But then after that we hit May and we probably

42:12 Speaker 3: won't be back in that room till August.

42:15 Speaker 5: Yeah, so who knows, you know.

42:17 Speaker 7: Yeah, but it's good to be busy. Yep, excellent, excellent,

42:22 Speaker 7: what do you oh? Jeez? The time goes so quick.

42:25 Speaker 7: So I want to make sure well, a couple of things.

42:26 Speaker 7: So I want to make sure people know where to

42:28 Speaker 7: go online to keep up with everything that you guys

42:30 Speaker 7: are doing. Where's the best place?

43:20 Speaker 3: that we're recording in the studio and we're we're doing that. Plus,

43:24 Speaker 3: Sherman had mentioned off air in he reminded me thank

43:26 Speaker 3: you that when we played the Lynch Mob show, our

43:30 Speaker 3: engineer from the studio, Jay had come down and brought

43:34 Speaker 3: he works for Metronome and he had come down with

43:36 Speaker 3: all his cameras and everything and shot a live video

43:40 Speaker 3: of us that night opening for Lynch Mob. So it

43:43 Speaker 3: was a huge crowd at the website there, cool and

43:45 Speaker 3: all that. So we have the live footage. We just

43:48 Speaker 3: don't have the concept footage yet, gotcha. So we're going

43:51 Speaker 3: to be doing that over the summer and then when

43:53 Speaker 3: it gets all it's called. And in fact, I got

43:56 Speaker 3: in touch. I don't know who we're gonna use yet,

43:58 Speaker 3: but one of the guys that contacted me off, he

44:03 Speaker 3: contacted me. He did all the Saliva videos. Yeah, So

44:06 Speaker 3: I was like, well, that's that's a good rep. You know,

44:10 Speaker 3: if he's doing Salivas click click home and always. So

44:13 Speaker 3: I was like, that's a good guy to have in

44:14 Speaker 3: your pocket. So I've been going back and forth with

44:17 Speaker 3: him and now we're discussing contract about it.

44:19 Speaker 5: So we'll see what happens.

44:20 Speaker 3: Because you know, the live footage from Jay and the

44:23 Speaker 3: concept stuff that this guy's going he's talking about me

44:26 Speaker 3: like having some kind of weird circus tent type looking thing.

44:30 Speaker 3: And so we've already kind of gone back and forth.

44:32 Speaker 3: I'm gonna get everybody's input on what we're gonna do. Yeah,

44:35 Speaker 3: but so it'll you know, that'll come out after the record,
