Survival of the Saddest

[00:00:02] Speaker A: Much like my life, I have no control over this meeting. [00:00:26] Speaker B: Welcome to what you thinking, friend? Well, for those that don't know, know this is my actual voice. And what you thinking, friend? I should probably start off with I'm Ed Worrell and that's Cody Lindaberry over there. [00:00:40] Speaker A: Yep, sounds good. [00:00:43] Speaker B: Reverse uno card today. No, no, I'm Cody. I'm Cody. He's Ed. [00:00:47] Speaker A: Well, that would make me Ed. [00:00:48] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, the lovely Ed Worrell. [00:00:52] Speaker A: Oh, I don't know if I'd go that far. Lovely. That's kind of your tippy toeing on. Just unbelievable right there. [00:01:00] Speaker B: You're tippy toeing with being an IT specialist because you've had so many troubles getting this zoom going. [00:01:07] Speaker A: Oh, God. I. It's stupid. The. All of a sudden, like five minutes in, I lost all of my zoom controls. I can't do a damn thing and I don't know what the hell's going on. It's stupid. So between you shortcut commands to save. [00:01:22] Speaker B: My life, minimized window and couldn't record out of that. [00:01:26] Speaker A: And oh yes, zoom fucked something up real good. [00:01:32] Speaker B: You know, it was a magical thing because you and myself have the same issue. Not with Zoom necessarily, but I took five times to remember how to log into my computer because the new update for whatever the software is now can't be the same password as whatever your account for Apple. [00:01:54] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah. [00:01:55] Speaker B: They made you swap it up and. [00:01:58] Speaker A: Then you're like, thankfully, change that too. [00:02:01] Speaker B: Past Cody was looking out for future Cody in that regard. In terms of like a useful hint. Not useful enough that it took five times to get the done, but, you know, it still got there. [00:02:13] Speaker A: That's awesome. [00:02:14] Speaker B: Yeah. Meanwhile, Bex and myself had enough time to be like, is your computer plugged in? Have you tried rebooting? [00:02:25] Speaker A: Have you tried rebooting? Is your sound on? Is your computer plugged in? [00:02:29] Speaker B: Maybe. [00:02:30] Speaker A: Is the printer plugged in? Are you on the same wireless network? [00:02:33] Speaker B: Is the airboy plugged in? [00:02:36] Speaker A: Turn it off and turn it back on again. Damn it. Shut up. [00:02:40] Speaker B: That's a damn thing that happens on a. What is it, daylight savings time, right? [00:02:46] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:02:49] Speaker B: Welcome to the show, bud. [00:02:50] Speaker A: So, daylight savings time, I as. As you know, and I'm on an insulin pump, right? [00:02:57] Speaker B: Yes, sir. [00:02:59] Speaker A: So this morning when I wake up, it goes, hey, you have to change your time on your pump. And I'm like, oh, okay, no problem. Whatever. I had to go through seven different dialogues to change the fucking time on my insulin pump. [00:03:16] Speaker B: Jesus. [00:03:17] Speaker A: And I'm just like, why is this so damn hard. And why can't it just say, hey, we noticed that you. Or it's daylight savings time. You want us to change the time on your pump and you hit. Okay. And it does it all for you. No, no, no, no, no, no. Can't be. [00:03:31] Speaker B: That would be too easy. [00:03:34] Speaker A: So anytime I change time zones, I have to go through this crap again because the time has changed and it wants it to be correct, which I appreciate, don't get me wrong, but I just. It shouldn't be that hard. [00:03:53] Speaker B: So a question for the class here is when you have something like your. Your software and everything like that, where you're having to be pretty on the clock, wouldn't you say? [00:04:08] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:04:09] Speaker B: So does that mean that much like when the daylight savings time goes either forward or backwards or around, and does it jig. You maintain that time no matter what illogical time it decides to be over one Saturday into a Sunday? [00:04:26] Speaker A: Yes. [00:04:27] Speaker B: Okay. [00:04:28] Speaker A: My routine is the same no matter what. [00:04:30] Speaker B: Gotcha. [00:04:31] Speaker A: Or as close to it can be. [00:04:34] Speaker B: So much like a pupper doggo that does not care what daylight savings time is. It's dinner time or lunchtime or breakfast time at the exact same time, no matter what goofy cockamamie plans that you have from a Saturday into a Sunday. [00:04:51] Speaker A: Yeah, the. The dogs are a little harder to get back on schedule than I am. But. [00:04:57] Speaker B: But, yeah, speaking of the dogs being a little harder being on schedule, this is one of the few times that I'm glad I don't have a hangover, because losing or gaining that hour, that's a. Huh. [00:05:09] Speaker A: Go figure. [00:05:11] Speaker B: Yeah. Like sunlight. Why. But, you know, the. [00:05:17] Speaker A: The. The transition to more earlier sunlight wasn't as difficult for you today as it has been in years past? [00:05:26] Speaker B: No. [00:05:27] Speaker A: Is that what I'm hearing? [00:05:28] Speaker B: Yeah, something like that. [00:05:29] Speaker A: Something like that. Oh, no. [00:05:30] Speaker B: No problems. No worries. Life's good. [00:05:33] Speaker A: Life's good. [00:05:33] Speaker B: Nice, man. Well, you know, as generic as a. Like, what fresh horrors are on the Internet today kind of thing. [00:05:43] Speaker A: Oh, there's lots of fresh horrors on the Internet today, buddy. [00:05:48] Speaker B: You know, if you. This is a great thing. If you walk away from the Internet, your phone, whatever it might be, just general, like, touch some grass, get some sunshine going and everything like that. Yeah, it's pretty all right. You're just not taking in. [00:06:06] Speaker A: Right. [00:06:07] Speaker B: All media, and it's great. And I would recommend that because that's exactly what we did yesterday. Nice. Had a nice little. Nice little day. Took the dog around to the park. Life was good. [00:06:19] Speaker A: Excellent. [00:06:20] Speaker B: Yeah. And took in very little media until the very like, tail end of the day. Like, and then you find out people are like, smashing up Tesla, which I. [00:06:32] Speaker A: In. [00:06:33] Speaker B: In. In terms of like, their stores in protest. [00:06:36] Speaker A: Yeah. They should be smashing up Teslas. [00:06:41] Speaker B: Yeah. And like, you see in cases of Chicago, a line of police just kind of protecting a Tesla store, which is like, huh, can we be. [00:06:54] Speaker A: Couldn't we be using our time and money for better things? You know, protecting a Tesla store. I don't. [00:07:03] Speaker B: Let's think about. Okay. As a person, as a taxpayer. [00:07:10] Speaker A: Yep. [00:07:11] Speaker B: You're one. I'm one. [00:07:12] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:07:13] Speaker B: For sure. The dog one is too. Yeah. But as a taxpayer, city dollars and everything. To use police as a standstill for a store is kind of questionable. But in the same regards, if people start looting, rioting, fires get started, and then there's the great Chicago fire again. [00:07:39] Speaker A: Sure. [00:07:40] Speaker B: So I'm trying to rationalize it, but I'm also a little. They would. The little kissed in me is like, go get them, kids. [00:07:48] Speaker A: They wouldn't. They wouldn't protect my home, so why should they protect the Tesla store? That's where I'm. My logic. [00:07:54] Speaker B: I'm coming from my other logic. Point of that is, why are you protecting a Nazi? [00:08:00] Speaker A: That's a company. [00:08:02] Speaker B: I was going to say is Elon doesn't know what insurance is and just. [00:08:06] Speaker A: Right. Exactly. Oh, probably not. He probably dodges insurance like you wouldn't believe. [00:08:10] Speaker B: Exactly. So with that in mind, Nickelback. [00:08:17] Speaker A: And our last podcast. We literally did not know this was happening. That was just a random, stupid, dumb question that I asked one day because I heard Creed live on. On the radio. [00:08:31] Speaker B: Let's call this back. Originally, this was two podcasts ago that you decided to enrich our lives with the possibility of who would be the third act on a Nickelback and Creed. We revisited it last time. [00:08:45] Speaker A: Uhhuh. [00:08:46] Speaker B: Just because I wanted to update the list because I was like, oh, wait, this band would be perfect for that. [00:08:51] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:52] Speaker B: And yet I somehow landed one of them on the last podcast because, yes, I did. [00:09:00] Speaker A: Nice. [00:09:00] Speaker B: And. And I feel pretty good about that. And yet I'm slightly like, why? So for your listening pleasure, this is Nickelback, Creed 3.0. This is 3.0. Gonna hit it and quit it. You know, James Brown style. Because this is the Summer of 99 and beyond festival and beyond. [00:09:26] Speaker A: Okay. Okay. [00:09:28] Speaker B: So you have a. A two nighter. [00:09:30] Speaker A: Two nights. Wow. [00:09:32] Speaker B: Two nights. We're older now. We. We don't necessarily need to start bands at 9 o'clock. We're old. We're sensible. Start them at 7. So because it is a two night affair, Nickelback is the headliner of One Night and Creed is the headliner on this. [00:09:50] Speaker A: That's how they're doing it. Okay, okay. [00:09:52] Speaker B: So they're not like fighting. [00:09:54] Speaker A: They're not like co headlining or they flip flop each night. [00:09:58] Speaker B: Yeah, they're not doing that. Okay, okay, so they're. They're main headlining a Friday night and maintenance headlining a Saturday. So would you just. Do you want to guess or do you want to just go straight into it? Rip the band aid off? [00:10:16] Speaker A: I'm gonna throw one guess out there. Okay. [00:10:19] Speaker B: You want to under Nickelbacker Creed. [00:10:22] Speaker A: Oh, God. Oh, it's two. It's. It's different bands each night. [00:10:27] Speaker B: Yes. [00:10:29] Speaker A: Oh, God. [00:10:30] Speaker B: So you have 1, 2, 3, 5 on the first night. And who knows, they might add additional, but I think five bands and Nickelback is enough. [00:10:39] Speaker A: Oh, that's just way more than enough. [00:10:42] Speaker B: And then you have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6 with Creed on Saturday. [00:10:49] Speaker A: That's because Nickelback's got way more songs than Creed. [00:10:52] Speaker B: Well, you can start it earlier too. You. You don't necessarily start a show. Like if you showed a show at Friday at 6 versus like a 4 o'clock show or something like that. Yeah. [00:11:06] Speaker A: Just because It's. You said 99 and more. I'm gonna. [00:11:11] Speaker B: And draw two. Okay. [00:11:13] Speaker A: Because I'm gonna stick with you on your pod prediction. [00:11:16] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:11:20] Speaker A: And just for good measures, because it's kind of in the same genre of people know their music and they kind of. They're. They're kind of. You're like, oh, that band. And I. And I've seen them now twice. Three times. Whatever it's been. I'm gonna go with seven Dust as one of the other. The other nights. [00:11:44] Speaker B: Ding, ding, ding. You got the second one. [00:11:48] Speaker A: Nice. [00:11:49] Speaker B: And it was funny because I said that on the last podcast because it's seven Dust. [00:11:56] Speaker A: Yep, exactly. [00:11:57] Speaker B: So congratulations on getting the second one. However, the first one with POD is not on this. [00:12:04] Speaker A: Oh, that's not on there. No, see, that's a missed. [00:12:10] Speaker B: So this one confuses me a little bit, but not really. Okay, so I'm gonna go from the order of furthest down the list up. [00:12:21] Speaker A: Okay, so openings. Yeah, gotcha. Yeah. Okay. [00:12:25] Speaker B: So potentially opening. You have lit. [00:12:29] Speaker A: Really? [00:12:30] Speaker B: That's what I said. [00:12:33] Speaker A: Soft open. [00:12:34] Speaker B: That is a great soft open. I would go for lit and then leave. [00:12:37] Speaker A: I. I would too. Lit would be on. Okay. [00:12:41] Speaker B: Okay. So you have lit. Then you have our lady piece. [00:12:46] Speaker A: I've seen them. Although they have A new lead singer. So I. I don't know. [00:12:51] Speaker B: And then you have Tonic. [00:12:53] Speaker A: Tonic's still around. [00:12:56] Speaker B: You're asking this of a Summer of 99 festival. [00:13:00] Speaker A: That. That is true. That is true. They probably. They probably dusted off the instruments just for this festival. [00:13:05] Speaker B: This is the survival of the fittest quarter century tour. [00:13:10] Speaker A: It's the survival of the saddest. [00:13:13] Speaker B: There you go. [00:13:14] Speaker A: Anyways, let's go on. Title of the podcast, Survival of the saddest. All right, fair enough. That'll. That'll happen. [00:13:20] Speaker B: Okay. Then you have Daughtry. [00:13:23] Speaker A: Daughtry alone would be actually worth going and seeing, I think. Yeah, they put on a good show. [00:13:31] Speaker B: And then you have Live. [00:13:34] Speaker A: Live. [00:13:35] Speaker B: Live, yeah, with the plus signs. [00:13:38] Speaker A: So three songs. [00:13:39] Speaker B: So. Yeah, three songs. So between five. Between five bands, you got about seven songs and. [00:13:46] Speaker A: Right. [00:13:47] Speaker B: And then Nickelback and then. Which he took the other three hours live opening of the same song. [00:13:53] Speaker A: Live. Opening up for Nickelback. [00:13:57] Speaker B: Yeah, potentially. [00:14:01] Speaker A: That's. That's a long night. [00:14:07] Speaker B: That's not wrong. Although not wrong on that one. [00:14:12] Speaker A: Ironically, I think Daughtry should be the headliner of that first night, not Nickelback. [00:14:18] Speaker B: It. You would think that. Okay, do you put Daughtry in the. In the A slot and then you make a. So who would co. Combat. Are you like, who's headlining for who then? [00:14:31] Speaker A: I would honestly put it. Lit or not lit. Tonic Lit Live. Then you had what was there? Our. I'd put Our Lady. It'd be Lit. Our Lady, Tonic. Our lady piece. Lit. Nickelback. Then Daughtry would be the. To me, honestly. [00:14:56] Speaker B: Well, I'm saying, because you obviously have Nickelback and Creed be in your headliners. [00:15:02] Speaker A: Right, Right. [00:15:03] Speaker B: But would it be better suited to have them, like, Coke Combat for a Saturday? [00:15:09] Speaker A: I think so. Creed shouldn't be headlining any festival, to be honest. [00:15:19] Speaker B: This will prompt a fun Google search that I will never be able to lead much. Like, many years of doing this podcast with you. [00:15:27] Speaker A: Right? Right. [00:15:28] Speaker B: Yeah. Or podcasting in general with you. [00:15:30] Speaker A: I. That first. I mean, other than Tonic, that first day lineup isn't that bad. I. I can't even think of one song Tonic does. To be brutally honest, when they were popular, they weren't on my list of bands to listen to. [00:15:55] Speaker B: Like, I'm trying to find, like, how would the best means of. Would it be, like, top 40? [00:16:06] Speaker A: Oh, for what band? [00:16:09] Speaker B: For per band? Yeah, per band. [00:16:11] Speaker A: I. Are you looking for, like, how they placed? [00:16:15] Speaker B: Well, in terms of like, how many times? [00:16:18] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. I don't know. [00:16:20] Speaker B: Top 40, maybe. [00:16:21] Speaker A: Yeah. Because Nickelback Would be by far. Has the top. Top songs. [00:16:29] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:31] Speaker A: Out of any of those. What? So before we do that, what was day two's lineup? [00:16:36] Speaker B: Yeah, because I'm. That's a rabbit hole in itself. [00:16:39] Speaker A: Right. [00:16:39] Speaker B: Terrible, terrible things. [00:16:41] Speaker A: Right. [00:16:41] Speaker B: Excuse me. And for the delay of having been three weeks of fighting off the cough and sound like Sam Elliott. I only sounded like Sam for one day. [00:16:52] Speaker A: Oh, only one day. I give you so much credit for thinking to record that Sam Elliott intro. That's. That's fantastic. [00:17:00] Speaker B: Well, the misses Got. Okay, side panel real quick before we get into day two of summer of 99, Mrs. Comes home and she is scared that if she did not see me when I used the. That voice, that she would have thought that a burglar was in the house. [00:17:20] Speaker A: That's awesome. [00:17:21] Speaker B: But she is the one to have the credit of. Like, you need to like, like, just record anything, really. [00:17:31] Speaker A: You would record that. [00:17:33] Speaker B: And I was just. So I just. I think she just basically said she's like, you need to hear that. You need to hear you. It's like, okay. So when. [00:17:42] Speaker A: That's fantastic. [00:17:43] Speaker B: Wouldn't record it. And of course, the stuff that I've recorded, I gave you a B side, which was a shirt off of a tattoo artist named Hori. Hot dog. [00:17:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:17:54] Speaker B: Which is very not safe for work. Very not safe for work because tattoos like big titty anime girls that are just like. Yeah, yeah. So. But one of the shirts that he has for sale is some anime girl eating a hot dog. And the. The front of the shirt says 100 Montana Beef. [00:18:24] Speaker A: That's awesome. [00:18:25] Speaker B: Yeah, because guess he was from Montana. Now he's like tattooing in Texas or Austin or something. [00:18:31] Speaker A: Huh. [00:18:32] Speaker B: Or Fort Wayne maybe. Anywho. So she had enough. Was like, oh, you should put that. So I recorded the intro. [00:18:42] Speaker A: That's awesome. [00:18:42] Speaker B: With enough foresight there. So. All right, on to Saturday, July 19, Summer of 99 and Beyond Festival and beyond. [00:18:51] Speaker A: Is this where it hits? And beyond. [00:18:55] Speaker B: Yes, it's about to. Your first one up. Fuel. [00:19:00] Speaker A: Fuel. All right, that. That plays. [00:19:03] Speaker B: Yeah. Second. Oh, go ahead. [00:19:06] Speaker A: I was just gonna say. Yeah, I could leave. Leave them, honestly. [00:19:10] Speaker B: But let's go on Vertical Horizon. [00:19:14] Speaker A: See, that makes sense because of Fuel. [00:19:17] Speaker B: Fuel. [00:19:18] Speaker A: Vertical Horizon. [00:19:19] Speaker B: Then the third one's gonna make real sense for you. Hinder. [00:19:24] Speaker A: Hinder. All right, that. That plays. [00:19:29] Speaker B: Next up on the chopping block, you have Mammoth. Wvh. [00:19:34] Speaker A: Really? [00:19:35] Speaker B: Yep. [00:19:37] Speaker A: That doesn't play at all. [00:19:39] Speaker B: I don't know. Huh. And now this. Now we're getting into the. Oh, that makes sense. Kind of last two before Creed. [00:19:53] Speaker A: Okay. [00:19:54] Speaker B: You named it first or actually seven Dust. And then after that, three Doors down read. [00:20:03] Speaker A: Oh, three doors down. Makes sense. [00:20:05] Speaker B: And yeah, it makes it incredible sense. And you're just kind of going, oh. [00:20:09] Speaker A: And I think of that one. [00:20:10] Speaker B: Yeah, exactly. The only way that you could make this a three day event is if you threw Dave Matthews on a Sunday. [00:20:24] Speaker A: Yeah. But he. He needs no opener. [00:20:28] Speaker B: He needs a closer. [00:20:30] Speaker A: Right. The only band that I am very dejected and just disappointed that isn't. Isn't on that list is Filter. [00:20:38] Speaker B: Oh, that's a great fuel. [00:20:42] Speaker A: Although you could throw in if the band was still technically around. You could throw around Days of the New, which, if you really want a modern Day of Day or Band of Days of the New, just go listen to Tantric because it's the same lead singer. Theory of a Dead man would have been a good pick for that. [00:21:02] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Yep. Montana's house band at that point. [00:21:05] Speaker A: Oh, God, yes. Yeah, I've seen. We've seen them several times over the years. [00:21:10] Speaker B: I don't think they would leave Puddle. [00:21:15] Speaker A: Of Mud if you can keep Wes from being a prick. [00:21:18] Speaker B: Oh, almost never. Great call, though. That is fantastic. [00:21:24] Speaker A: I gotta give Becky credit. That's hers. But that was still. [00:21:27] Speaker B: That was fantastic. [00:21:31] Speaker A: Wes from being a prick. [00:21:34] Speaker B: Goodness. [00:21:35] Speaker A: Nailed it, man. Peanut Gallery got that one. [00:21:42] Speaker B: Yeah, man. From the cheap seats from way downtown. [00:21:49] Speaker A: I'm guessing that the cheap sheet. Cheap seats for this festival are not cheap. [00:21:54] Speaker B: How does Lincoln park or not Lincoln. Limp Bizkit not, like, monetize off of this stuff? [00:22:01] Speaker A: Like, how does Limp Bizkit not. Oh, that's a good one. [00:22:04] Speaker B: Because as if this is summer 99 and beyond. [00:22:07] Speaker A: So the way I look at it is people, for some dumbass reason, actually hate Nickelback. Or not hate Nickelback. They actually hate Limp Bizkit. I don't know why. Like, they get so much undeserved hate. But, Creed, you can rightfully hate them. I. I have no problem with that. [00:22:25] Speaker B: But I don't. You. Oh, okay. Let's. Let's turn this back to, like, how in our time of, like, high school. [00:22:36] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:22:37] Speaker B: You had to defend bands. [00:22:41] Speaker A: Oh, God. [00:22:43] Speaker B: Like, you. This is your band. And this is, like, you're not going to talk shit on my band kind of thing. Okay. And. And there's like, the. I don't know how else to put it. It's just like, oh, you can't be a fan of this band if you're a fan of that band. Which is. [00:22:59] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, there. There's that, like, fragile hate. Between. Yeah. Between fans of certain groups. Yeah. Yeah. [00:23:08] Speaker B: And there's like, oh, I'm afraid. I'm sorry. That I can't. Like all different music. You can't have an eclectic taste. [00:23:15] Speaker A: Right. [00:23:16] Speaker B: Which is stupid. Real dumb. [00:23:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:23:19] Speaker B: So when it comes to this. And now it makes me want to have a blanket, a battle vest of, like, terrible bands. [00:23:26] Speaker A: Ooh. You know who would absolutely be the tops of that. That list would be your. I just. Oh, Insane Clown Posse. O they. For your fans that just will go to the end of the earth to defend their band. It's got to be people that love Insane Clown Posse. [00:23:55] Speaker B: You know the. The singer Jelly Roll? Somebody asked him, what's the craziest thing you've seen on tour? He said, 2. Two people at a juggler or two juggalos in the middle of my set at a insound Insane Clown Posse tour. [00:24:17] Speaker A: So did he open for Insane Clown Posse? [00:24:20] Speaker B: Yes. Back in the day, Jelly Roll opened for Insane Clown. That was before he real, truly, like, found his voice in the matter. [00:24:30] Speaker A: That's weird. [00:24:31] Speaker B: Yes, sir. [00:24:32] Speaker A: I can't picture that. You can. [00:24:35] Speaker B: You can look it up. Because I had to do the same, and I was just like, that's like. [00:24:40] Speaker A: Taylor Swift opening for Slipknot. Although that would be an awesome concert. [00:24:46] Speaker B: Take my money, please. [00:24:47] Speaker A: Because you don't. Because you don't mess with Tay Tay. [00:24:50] Speaker B: No, no, no, no. [00:24:51] Speaker A: Even Slipknot fans respect that. [00:24:54] Speaker B: Yeah. Because they go hard in the paint. [00:24:57] Speaker A: Exactly. I, I. Wow. I. But I still stick with the most. Most ruthless. We got to stick up for a band is got to be Insane Clown Posse. [00:25:10] Speaker B: That's okay. That's of a. That's of an era. [00:25:16] Speaker A: Yep. [00:25:18] Speaker B: Who would you say is the original version of that? And I have the answer for you. [00:25:22] Speaker A: Motley Crue. [00:25:24] Speaker B: Oh, that might be of the 80s. Oh, no. Maybe that would have been more guns. [00:25:28] Speaker A: Beatles. [00:25:31] Speaker B: I was going to say the Kiss army, my dude. [00:25:33] Speaker A: Oh, the Kiss Army. Oh, yeah, yeah, they were. For some weird reason. But then if you. Then if you weirdly watch that 70s show, there's only, like, one person that loves Kiss and that whole thing, that whole show. Everybody else is kind of like, eh, they're stupid. [00:25:52] Speaker B: It. It is a act. Yeah. [00:25:56] Speaker A: Oh, God, yes. It's very much a Persona. I just. It's a weird, weird group. [00:26:02] Speaker B: I am not mad at that. [00:26:03] Speaker A: No, no, they're. They were Slipknot before Slipknot. [00:26:07] Speaker B: Really good call. [00:26:09] Speaker A: Costumes. And plenty. [00:26:11] Speaker B: Plenty of good hits. [00:26:12] Speaker A: Plenty of. Plenty of makeup and guitars and scaring People to go around. [00:26:17] Speaker B: They never really had. I'm not sure Slipknot ever had a top 40, but then again, bands like that are not made for top 40s. [00:26:27] Speaker A: Right, exactly. They had a. Well, it depends on which billboard, because they do technically have. Well, if you're just looking at top 40. [00:26:34] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:35] Speaker A: They never would have been top 40, but they would have been top of their charts because they've got a million charts now. [00:26:41] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean. Ugh. [00:26:44] Speaker A: Yeah, right? [00:26:45] Speaker B: No, we're not going into that. [00:26:47] Speaker A: We're not going into that, but. [00:26:50] Speaker B: Gross, right? [00:26:51] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. Top 40, but. [00:26:54] Speaker B: But with that withstanding now, it's like. Oh, yeah, totally. Oh, man, that makes me think. It's. It's funny because we have. In Montana, we. We have a band that is coming to Billings. Ed, can you guess of the genre of metal slash? Well, let's just go with metal. I'm having to find metal. There it is. Well, you have a metal slash. Doom metal. [00:27:29] Speaker A: Oh, are you guys getting Cradle of Filth? [00:27:31] Speaker B: There you go. There's the answer. [00:27:33] Speaker A: Because I knew they were playing Missoula and the Elm. [00:27:36] Speaker B: Yes, that's what I said. Yeah. Billy's is not getting it because Bozeman and Missoula are getting it. [00:27:43] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:27:44] Speaker B: It would have been dope, though, because. [00:27:48] Speaker A: Would be interesting. [00:27:49] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, they have a. Yeah. I'm kind of curious of how the hell they're playing like the Elm. [00:27:58] Speaker A: I've never been to the Elm. Is that a big venue or not? [00:28:02] Speaker B: It's. It's a cozy environment. [00:28:06] Speaker A: It's cozy. Okay. [00:28:08] Speaker B: It's bigger than, I believe what the Newberry is for Great Falls. [00:28:14] Speaker A: Okay. Because Newberry is about 1200 people at full capacity. [00:28:20] Speaker B: Oh, I'm gonna check now. [00:28:22] Speaker A: So it's. It's decent size. I. I really think 1200 people is far too many in that space. [00:28:31] Speaker B: Oh, my God. Yeah. No, the way that you got knocked around a little bit a couple times. Oh, look at that. 1100 Yom is smaller than the Newberry. Yeah. But it doesn't feel smaller. [00:28:48] Speaker A: Maybe there. Maybe there's different fire codes and something for the amount of people. [00:28:53] Speaker B: All right, I'm gonna designate this as like a how the best way, because you have like a tier system. Like, you have your. Your on the floor right in front of the stage, Right? [00:29:05] Speaker A: Yep. [00:29:05] Speaker B: Then you have a second tier, which is kind of your chill out area. Whatever. Then you have another tier up that is your, like, true hangout zone. And then, you know, concessions and all that jazz. [00:29:18] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:29:18] Speaker B: Then you have the balcony section that's above it. [00:29:21] Speaker A: Oh, interesting. Yeah. [00:29:24] Speaker B: So you can get your fix no matter how you're living on it, but. [00:29:28] Speaker A: You want to be in the pit. You go, you pay for the floor. You want to be, you know, a little cozier, a little nicer. You pay for the midsection. [00:29:36] Speaker B: No, because anything that's on the. On the floor is 1, 2, 3. You can access all the. All the way. And, brother, let me tell you, when the. When the who was playing, that was elbows to. In terms of, like, it was max capacity. [00:29:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:30:00] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:01] Speaker A: Cradle of Filth would be interesting. [00:30:05] Speaker B: I don't agree. [00:30:06] Speaker A: I don't know them that well or know their music that well, but it would be an interesting concert to go to. It'd be kind of fun to see how gothed up Montana gets for that. [00:30:20] Speaker B: I bet you would be surprised, however, in that same regard. The opening act. One of the opening act, Ueda. [00:30:29] Speaker A: Ue. Okay. [00:30:31] Speaker B: Saw them in Billings. And pretty fun. I mean, it's a doom. It's a doomy metal band that, like, their faces are covered the entire time and. Yeah, but it sounded great. [00:30:44] Speaker A: Real drop tone, kind of growly and know that whole thing. [00:30:48] Speaker B: Give it a shot. Yeah. [00:30:49] Speaker A: All right, I'll look it up. Yeah. [00:30:54] Speaker B: So what's the next band coming up for you there, bud? [00:30:57] Speaker A: I. You know, really and truly, the Lincoln park concert is what we're waiting for. We haven't gotten anything in Great Falls that we haven't seen before, like the. I can't remember if it just happened or it's happening shortly as Hinder and Saliva, which, yeah, wouldn't be bad, but I've. I've seen. Been there, done that. I've seen Saliva, like four times, five times, whatever it's been. They put on a good show, don't get me wrong, but, you know, they're kind of a house band at this point, to me. [00:31:38] Speaker B: Mm. They. [00:31:42] Speaker A: There just hasn't been any big announcements. Although one that weirdly intrigued me. But they only have one song. Is Boys Like Girls a kind of pop rock alternative? It would be different. Yeah, but not for the price. They were something like 40 bucks. They were expensive for what they were. [00:32:10] Speaker B: I'm right there, too, because I'm looking right at. At the lineup that the pub station has. [00:32:16] Speaker A: Huh? [00:32:16] Speaker B: Oh, that's not too bad. The Amity Affliction. [00:32:22] Speaker A: Amity Affliction wouldn't be bad. [00:32:24] Speaker B: They're coming up in 10 days. [00:32:26] Speaker A: Oh, 10 days. That's a little close. [00:32:28] Speaker B: I mean, for. [00:32:30] Speaker A: Yeah, for me. [00:32:31] Speaker B: Yeah. And that you're still spending like 35 bucks to travel. No, no. Well, yeah, the travel too. [00:32:37] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:32:38] Speaker B: I was just saying for the like, yeah, for the. Imagine it's fees is 5 bucks. 29 bucks is with a markdown price. [00:32:46] Speaker A: Sure. [00:32:47] Speaker B: We got Memphis May fire. [00:32:49] Speaker A: Memphis May fire. Becky from the other side of the room just said yin Yang twins here in Great Falls. [00:32:56] Speaker B: Flow riders coming here. [00:32:57] Speaker A: Flow rider. He played our baseball stadium a couple of years ago. [00:33:03] Speaker B: This one is a callback. Angel maker. [00:33:08] Speaker A: Angel maker. I don't know that one. [00:33:12] Speaker B: I think you would like it. Okay, give it a run there. [00:33:16] Speaker A: Give it a spin. [00:33:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:33:18] Speaker A: All right. [00:33:20] Speaker B: I. This one. I can't believe Dinosaur Jr. Is coming to buildings. [00:33:25] Speaker A: Oh, you guys are getting Dinosaur junior Really? [00:33:28] Speaker B: The week before. [00:33:29] Speaker A: Not as good as dinosaur pile up. But. [00:33:34] Speaker B: We were making the joke before getting hitched that we should send an invite to. Oh, because I'm already have. Drawing a blank. Sending an invite. What are you doing? [00:33:57] Speaker A: What? What? [00:34:02] Speaker B: Oh, I set my friends on fire. [00:34:04] Speaker A: Nice. Yeah, I'd love to see them. That'd be awesome. [00:34:08] Speaker B: Like if we. If we send them a save the date and everything with it, would they show up? Is basically. [00:34:14] Speaker A: That would be funny. [00:34:15] Speaker B: Oh, it'd be great. [00:34:17] Speaker A: They could play your wedding band. That'd be great. [00:34:21] Speaker B: Exactly. Like the four like you backs, me and the misses There, we got like four of them that like, like awesome. Sweet. And then all of the rest of. [00:34:32] Speaker A: Your family is like, what the hell is this? [00:34:34] Speaker B: The two warning tribes that are meeting. [00:34:39] Speaker A: That. That would be fantastic. [00:34:40] Speaker B: Delightful. [00:34:42] Speaker A: You know what's funny? Out of any band in the world, they would probably do it. [00:34:47] Speaker B: Yeah, I believe it. I believe them 100 when they said that they would open up like in the parking garage or parking lot of when we were young festival. [00:34:57] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, absolutely. [00:34:58] Speaker B: And you know what? They could have done it because they had space. [00:35:02] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:35:04] Speaker B: And. And a line for ever. So. Yeah. Question, question. [00:35:10] Speaker A: And I just love the name of their songs. They're just fantastic. [00:35:15] Speaker B: So I got some math for you. [00:35:16] Speaker A: Oh, math is hard. [00:35:19] Speaker B: So as you know, now that it is band season coming up. [00:35:24] Speaker A: Band season. Festival season. [00:35:26] Speaker B: Festival season. There was. There was a couple that showed up and immediately I'm going, ooh, ooh, damn. One of which was Run the Jewels and Wu Tang Clan. [00:35:42] Speaker A: Run the Jewels and Wu Tang Clan. Okay. [00:35:46] Speaker B: Yes. And then there's. There's many thoughts that go into the process. Like a 800 flight ticket for two hotels. And the ticket itself was I believe, 350. [00:36:04] Speaker A: Oh, okay. [00:36:05] Speaker B: And then you tap on another like 40 something bucks for fees okay. And I didn't want to cause another pandemic like Rage and rtga. Yeah. Last time. So we're gonna avoid another Trump in office pandemic. You're welcome, America. [00:36:27] Speaker A: Thank you, Cody. We. [00:36:28] Speaker B: We appreciate your sacrifice. Fly, my dude. [00:36:32] Speaker A: Yep. Yeah. [00:36:33] Speaker B: And then you have Punk in the Park. [00:36:37] Speaker A: Punk in the Park. Okay, where's that at? [00:36:41] Speaker B: They had a couple locations and with that they have a couple bands that are different on Per Shot. [00:36:46] Speaker A: Okay. [00:36:47] Speaker B: You have a couple of them that like Bad Religion and all that. That will go to every one of them. [00:36:55] Speaker A: Sure. [00:36:55] Speaker B: But in this case, Denver had like Streetlight Manifesto, Dropkick Murphy's. [00:37:01] Speaker A: Oh, so they were more on the SCA side of things. Let me. [00:37:04] Speaker B: Let me pull up that Punk in the Park. [00:37:06] Speaker A: Punk in the Park. That actually sounds like. That'd be awesome. [00:37:09] Speaker B: Oh, dude. Yeah. And I guess they. They have a multiple stage setup, so you're not missing any of the action. [00:37:17] Speaker A: Oh, cool. [00:37:18] Speaker B: Yeah, that's what I've. That's coming from my boss who has gone to last years with. They had. They have one in Portland, but it was last year's. Was no Effects is like finals final hurrah. Yeah. [00:37:39] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:37:40] Speaker B: So for Portland, you have Descents, Interrupters, Screeching with weasels, propagandi, 7 seconds, muster plug Swinging, Utters, Distorted Times and More. [00:37:52] Speaker A: That's like FAT Records. Like when. When you used to get these compilation discs from Fat Records in the early 2000s. Those are the bands you would get. [00:38:01] Speaker B: Yeah. So Denver, this is the one that I was looking at because it just seemed like fun at Religion, Descendants, Drought Kick, Murphy's, Pennywise, Streetlight Manifesto, Screeching Weasels, Circle Jerks, the Addicts, Propagandi, the Aquabats, Strung Out, Seven Seconds, the Casualties, Mad Caddies, the Real mackenzies, Voodoo, Glow Skull, Mustard Plug, Gutter Mouth, Manic Hispanic, the Queers, Dwarves, Riverbug Gamblers, Bomb Pops. Love them. Great show. Go to see them every time. Flatfoot 56. [00:38:40] Speaker A: Yeah, that's like all of the punk bands I listened to in high school. [00:38:44] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:38:45] Speaker A: Every single one of them. Yep. Wow. [00:38:48] Speaker B: You're like Minor Threat away from your happy or like Fugazi away from True Happiness. [00:38:53] Speaker A: Yeah, Fugazi would be the icing on the cake for that. [00:38:57] Speaker B: But considering that Denver has a brew tour going on, like they have a sampling center that you get to go to for 15 bucks. Yeah, that one. That one costs like 4. $400 per day and another 40 stack. I think it was another 40 or 50 for fees. That's a lot for Punk. [00:39:20] Speaker A: Punk music. But that's a lot of punk music. [00:39:23] Speaker B: Yeah. So for all those. If you get. Let's say. Because you got a Friday, Saturday, Sunday event with a craft beer festival, that is an optional. But, man, to see all those bands in Denver would be fun as. But it's the middle of July. [00:39:40] Speaker A: Yeah, of course it would be middle of July. Yep. [00:39:44] Speaker B: So that's. [00:39:46] Speaker A: Did you. Have you seen all of the announcements for going forward for Vans Warp Tour? [00:39:56] Speaker B: No. Go on. [00:39:58] Speaker A: Oh, they. So in the early beginning, fans were pissed off because it was extremely emo. Like, you had My Chemical Romance. Just all of. The story of the year, just all the emo bands that you can, you know, think of. But then they started throwing in other stuff like Motionless and White and a bunch of other, you know, more metalcore type of bands. And it actually. That festival actually sounds like it would be an amazing time now. It was. There's a lot of stuff that. But the tickets are stupid expensive now. [00:40:37] Speaker B: Yeah. What is it? The running memes. It's not even a meme. It's just a running fact of how much tickets were to go see vans, and vans went to everywhere and. [00:40:52] Speaker A: Yeah, Vans Warp Tour used to stop here in. In Billings in Montana in the early 2000s. [00:41:01] Speaker B: Yeah, exactly. [00:41:04] Speaker A: Now they're not coming anywhere close. [00:41:06] Speaker B: Now you got to go to one of three locations, I think. [00:41:09] Speaker A: Something like that. Yeah, it's like three or four or five locations. Yeah. [00:41:13] Speaker B: And many of the headlining bands that signed up for it originally backed out. [00:41:16] Speaker A: Hit the egg. [00:41:18] Speaker B: Yeah, they had a lot of bands that backed the out. So between all that, it's just basically like, okay, I'm not that. And getting married here pretty soon. Right. It's taking a priority of the whole pto. [00:41:32] Speaker A: As it should. [00:41:34] Speaker B: As it should. Yes, you're right. But so, yeah, we're gearing up for that and anything that comes around our way. And maybe it Bozeman at the closest, that's pretty much the designation of like. Because PTO time has been reserved like a mofo. [00:41:52] Speaker A: And I guess we do have here in Great Falls, we do have our state fair, which actually has been pulling in some decent concerts over the last two or three years. [00:42:01] Speaker B: So I think that's Flow rider for us. Is one of. [00:42:05] Speaker A: That's your state fair. Is one of them. [00:42:08] Speaker B: One of. Yeah. [00:42:09] Speaker A: Yeah. But. [00:42:12] Speaker B: But we've been getting a lot more comedy, though, too. [00:42:14] Speaker A: Yeah, we. [00:42:15] Speaker B: We usually get. Tom Segura is going to be here. [00:42:18] Speaker A: Oh, wow. Yeah. No, that should be all right. [00:42:20] Speaker B: Yeah, that's right around My birthday. We're gonna go see that. So nice. Fun. Yeah. [00:42:25] Speaker A: Be fun. Yeah. [00:42:26] Speaker B: Earth day gift to myself. You deserve it. Barrel of laughs. [00:42:31] Speaker A: A barrel of laughs. Nice. No, I just. It'll be interesting to see what the fair brings. We'll probably bring. We'll probably go to one or two of those, potentially. But the Lincoln park experience is going to be expensive enough. [00:42:46] Speaker B: I cannot wait to see. Like, when is Lincoln park for you? [00:42:50] Speaker A: The 20th. September 24th. Is the. The concert. Damn. So it'll be good. [00:42:59] Speaker B: Yes, sir. [00:43:00] Speaker A: Well, it's. I'd say, literally, I'll. It'll be the third time I've seen them. [00:43:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:07] Speaker A: Becky hasn't seen them, so it'll be an experience that'll be. [00:43:13] Speaker B: That'll be fun for both y'all. Yeah, I'm. I'm excited to hear for that tale. So it'll be fun. All right, well, I think that's good enough for this particular episode of what you think of friend. We didn't even say the line. Whoops. [00:43:31] Speaker A: It's all good. [00:43:32] Speaker B: We're bad at this. We. [00:43:34] Speaker A: We are such amateurs. [00:43:36] Speaker B: We're rusty knocking off the rest of the old thing, but she still runs, right? Absolutely. All right, brother. Well, I am Cody lindaberry. That's your cue. [00:43:50] Speaker A: I. I'm Edward Ellen. You can find me on mastodon at blind world. And you can now find what you thinking, friends? At what you thinking on mastodon? [00:44:01] Speaker B: Yeah. So from all of us, basically, the two of us, what you think, your friend? Have a great day, and thanks for listening.
