pipe Man W four C Y Radio. And what a

6
00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:39.920
great interview we're gonna do today because I'm in Costa Rica, uh,

7
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:43.320
and I put my surfing aside because this band has

8
00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:47.399
some great new music and then you know, we're going

9
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:50.960
across the pond to talk about it. And I gotta

10
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:54.399
tell you the first thing before I introduce our guests.

11
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.640
That drew my attention, besides knowing the band from way

12
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:01.600
back when it is the headline I saw in the

13
00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:08.599
press release that said More comes out swinging, pumping fistfolds

14
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:15.480
of metal as Destructor album launches. Man, that is like

15
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:21.159
the best press release hot you know headline ever. So

16
00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:24.439
now we got welcome to the show, Baz from More.

17
00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:26.680
How are you fine?

18
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:29.920
Thanks very much and Dan, and thank you for the

19
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:31.239
interest in our band.

20
00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:34.120
That's now?

21
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:36.280
Is it true? Okay?

22
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:41.040
I read that this album finally being released had ten

23
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:44.400
different titles till the final one.

24
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:51.159
Well several yes, you know, yeah, because we were going

25
00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:55.400
to call it Roquium originally because of all the artists

26
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:59.319
that have been passing away. Yeah, and the second track

27
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:03.719
was written with that in mind. But as we went

28
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:08.759
on and things developed, one track, well, one track stood

29
00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:12.840
out that we all loved playing, which was Destructor. It's

30
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.759
got that edge to it, you know, it's a really

31
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:18.639
nice number. So yeah, it went through various stages and

32
00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:21.919
in the end we decided on Destructor because we thought

33
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:25.719
it would be a very good title. But I loved

34
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:30.599
several tracks on that album, especially Wolf behind your Eyes

35
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:33.879
that's I love that track as well. So it was

36
00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:36.800
a very difficult decision in the end, but we but

37
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:38.439
we stuck with Destructor.

38
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:39.599
Well.

39
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:41.800
I got to tell you, I love the name first

40
00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:45.360
of all. But second of all, I had like kind

41
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:48.360
of a flashback when I was listening to this, because

42
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:52.759
like of good times back when, you know, And I

43
00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:56.120
was like, man, it just I love the fact when

44
00:02:56.240 --> 00:02:59.039
bands come out in new music after a long period

45
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:03.360
of time and yeah, it's modernized, but it doesn't change

46
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:06.639
who they are, and I think this does that.

47
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.919
Yeah, but we've not only got new stuff on there.

48
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:13.039
We tried to link it back to the old band

49
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:19.400
as well. There was a track from the nineteen eighties

50
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.240
I'm trying to think what it is now. That one

51
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:25.960
was more, that's right, the track More. We demoed that

52
00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:29.360
back in the eighties, right, we had that. And then

53
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:33.039
there's two tracks from two thousand which were done with

54
00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:38.240
Kenny and that was Scream and My Obsession. We demoed

55
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:40.520
them as well, So we tried to bring it through

56
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:41.479
the ages to.

57
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:45.159
Where we are now and to include everything.

58
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:48.800
But yeah, it's a nice mix, but this stuff is

59
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:53.280
still heavy and very rift based, very new on them,

60
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:55.520
and yeah, we love it.

61
00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:59.120
Well, here's what I love about it. Okay, so a

62
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:04.080
lot and bands nowadays because there's so much metal out

63
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:06.800
there now compared to back in our days back in

64
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:11.680
the eighties. You know that it's almost like metal is

65
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:14.319
doing what we were against back then, and they're like

66
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:19.240
using a formula to make metal music. Yeah, and I

67
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:21.879
didn't get that at all with this album. It's like,

68
00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:24.439
that's why I love it so much. It's like it's

69
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:31.199
just musicianship and just great metal without like a script.

70
00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:33.920
For lack of a bair way of saying, that's what

71
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:36.480
I look at it is the new music. They're using

72
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:39.959
a script or an algebraic equation to make the music.

73
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:42.600
Well, we do it well, we do our music in

74
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:47.160
a certain way, you know, But a lot of bands

75
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:49.839
there was just like competition between the guitars and the

76
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:54.319
vocals and everybody's and that doesn't work, you know, it

77
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.800
really doesn't. You've got to give your vocal spice, you've

78
00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:01.439
got to give you your instruments and it works, you know.

79
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:05.160
Yeah, yeah, we have got our own formula. But it's

80
00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:08.920
a very simple one. It's very basic and it works.

81
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:15.240
So now, what made you release this album now in

82
00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:19.279
twenty twenty six, Well, it's actually you know, twenty twenty five,

83
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:20.439
twenty twenty six.

84
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:22.959
What made you do this now?

85
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.519
Well, it was basically down to problems that we couldn't

86
00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:30.680
release it before. First of all, Chris passing away, Yeah,

87
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:33.000
that was not the time to release it.

88
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:36.199
It really was not, no doubt.

89
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:40.959
And we Dave Ross and myself we actually went into

90
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:44.000
the studio and after a couple of months after we

91
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.720
passed away and helped the family to break down the

92
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:49.920
studio and they sold all the gear for and we

93
00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:55.120
did a sterling job. And then after the dust has suffered,

94
00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:56.920
we sat down and said, well what should we do?

95
00:05:57.040 --> 00:05:59.839
You know, And then we had to put a band

96
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:04.279
together without Chris, which was which was good enough to

97
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:10.720
promote the album because just before Chris died, Mike Frulan

98
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:13.319
left the band because he couldn't tour, you know, due

99
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:20.160
to personal problems. So we went through so many vocalists

100
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:24.360
trying to get somebody that could sing those vocals, and

101
00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:27.720
it took us ages to try and find a vo Chris.

102
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:30.720
We went through several, as I say, and eventually Mike

103
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:35.120
came back to the band and that was that's the

104
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:36.720
point where we thought.

105
00:06:36.879 --> 00:06:40.160
Right, we can now think about putting.

106
00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:43.480
Out the album because we had because we had we

107
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:48.560
had the old band back together without Chris. Unfortunately Dave

108
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:51.279
left and we've got another guy in old guitar. But yeah,

109
00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:57.240
it was being able to promote the album properly and

110
00:06:57.399 --> 00:06:59.120
have a band there that was capable of.

111
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:02.959
Doing it, which we actually got now, so that's good.

112
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:04.680
And then what we did.

113
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:11.120
Once we were in a state to look at getting

114
00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:15.439
the album put out, I had a word with Chris's widow,

115
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:19.959
Jane Sangered is a very lovely lady that Chris has

116
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:25.360
spoken to, a guy called Dan Economy remanaging the band,

117
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:32.839
et cetera. Before he passed away and Jane was still

118
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:35.240
in contact with him, so I asked whether she could

119
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:39.079
mention whether he would still be interested in in managing

120
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:41.720
the band, and that we've got the album to put out,

121
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.519
and after due deliberation, he came on board and from

122
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:52.079
there things took off. And he's done a brilliant job

123
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:56.000
in actually managing the whole thing and masterminded it from

124
00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:56.439
there on.

125
00:07:57.399 --> 00:08:00.279
That is the story, the basic story on it. That's

126
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:01.600
where we are today.

127
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:06.920
He sent it out to Applebaum out out in la

128
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:12.560
and and he did an amazing job on the mastering

129
00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:14.160
and that's where we are.

130
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:20.759
So now do you think that maybe from somewhere in

131
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:27.759
the universe that you were led by Chris to find

132
00:08:27.879 --> 00:08:30.759
this USB drive.

133
00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:32.919
The tracks?

134
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:35.840
Well, I can tell you what happened there. When we

135
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:41.759
were breaking down the studio, he had a radar system

136
00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:47.039
that he did his recording on. Now I'm a technophobe,

137
00:08:47.799 --> 00:08:53.080
but even Dave didn't understand how the radar system work.

138
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:56.120
But we knew three guys from a band called Blind

139
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:58.799
Tiger who were going to come into the studio and

140
00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:02.600
they understood this system. So while they were there, they

141
00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:05.519
went through everything that was on the radar system and

142
00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:09.639
they found the album for us and they downloaded it

143
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:12.600
onto a USB stick for us.

144
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:13.519
Wow.

145
00:09:14.279 --> 00:09:16.200
And I've still got that in my house now.

146
00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:17.519
Nice.

147
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:22.080
I've only had copies and sent out copies. That one

148
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:25.200
I've still got And this year I was sitting in

149
00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:28.000
this is the chair that Chris satti and at his

150
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:29.200
desk in the studio.

151
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:32.240
So he's here with us on the interview. Now, I

152
00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:36.159
take it all the time. Yeah, I love it. I

153
00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:40.639
love it, you know. And he's probably really proud of

154
00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:44.559
his final rendition of the album.

155
00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:49.200
I hope. So. Yeah, it was such a nice, humble man,

156
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:51.039
he really was.

157
00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:56.000
That's always great to hear. That's always great to hear.

158
00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:59.159
And to pay such homage to somebody like that, that

159
00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:02.399
was so important to the band. I think putting this

160
00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:05.440
album is the best way you could pay homage to him,

161
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:06.440
my opinion.

162
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.879
And we had to do it the right way, you know.

163
00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:15.759
And Dan coming on board. Yes, he's doing Chris proud.

164
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:17.720
I love it.

165
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.759
So now that we've done this and we have some

166
00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.399
amazing music, thank you.

167
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.039
Is there more coming from more?

168
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:32.240
Yeah? Yeah.

169
00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:34.679
I've been in the band since nineteen eighty two, so

170
00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:36.120
it's been a long time coming.

171
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.159

We started writing for the next one. Peter and I

182
00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:34.399

But what we've been doing, we've been putting together the

189
00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:57.679
business side of the band just recently because we decided

190
00:11:57.679 --> 00:11:59.840
to do our own label and everything. So we've had

191
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:02.240
it's everything up and there's been a lot of work

192
00:12:02.279 --> 00:12:05.440
behind the scenes. But yeah, we will be out there

There, there it is, and just look at that artwork. Okay,

221
00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:31.399
that I'm all about artwork. That's a badass of artwork,

222
00:13:32.679 --> 00:13:33.240
that's right.

223
00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:34.120
It is.

224
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:42.559
You know, it's got some punch the album.

225
00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:43.120
And that's the only way metals should be, and that's

226
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:45.600
the only way more should be in my opinion, And

227
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:52.480
you have hit the nail on the head, right. I

228
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:55.879
just like I always am so happy when bands like

229
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:58.679
you'd have been around since I'm a teenager.

230
00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:00.960
Are doing this.

231
00:14:04.200 --> 00:14:04.399
Right.

232
00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:07.799
If you have asked me in the eighties, if at

233
00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:12.519
almost sixty years old, I would be, uh, you know,

234
00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:17.720
interviewing metal bands from that time, like you're nuts. The

235
00:14:17.799 --> 00:14:20.200
world's gonna blow up in nineteen eighty four, anyway, we

236
00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:20.879
won't be here.

237
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:26.840
I wish I was sixty, I think about it.

238
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:27.240
You know.

239
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:30.080
It's funny too when you were like sixteen you couldn't

240
00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:33.919
wait to be adult, and now I think, who an idiot?

241
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:34.320
I was?

242
00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:37.679
Like, Uh, I wish I could go back to those

243
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:42.080
times again too, because man, there were some fun times

244
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:44.879
in metal back then. There's fun times now too, but

245
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:49.000
that beginning time. And like you mentioned, Paul, you know,

246
00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:52.000
people may not like me for this, but I'm definitely

247
00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:56.120
Paul Deano team Paul Deano Maiden like I like Bruce,

248
00:14:56.799 --> 00:14:59.720
but to me, the best Maiden album of all time

249
00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:04.720
is Killers for sure. And it was a very sad

250
00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:10.039
when he passed away because I just thought he was amazing,

251
00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:18.120
absolutely amazing. Yeah, and it is sad when you see

252
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:21.519
stuff like you know it is happening now. And even

253
00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:26.080
the fact that Oz, oh my god, whoever thought Oz

254
00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:34.279
would pass away? He outlived everybody.

255
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:31.799
You know.

256
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:36.240
I was thinking about him on the way to this interview.

257
00:15:36.279 --> 00:15:38.600
And I'll tell you why, because I'm in Costa Rica,

258
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:41.960
in a place where I'm in the jungle and dirt roads,

259
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:46.120
and I have a quad that's my main mode of transportation,

260
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:49.960
and I was thinking on late back to my places

261
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:53.879
do the interview. I'm like, wait a minute, The whole

262
00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:57.159
thing started when Oz crashed his quad.

263
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:00.679
Now, i'll tell you something Oz.

264
00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:05.320
He crashed his his squad at the end of his

265
00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:09.519
garden where he used to live and Chris had the

266
00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:11.279
garden which was opposite.

267
00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:14.440
WHOA, there used to be neighbors.

268
00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:18.200
WHOA. Oh yeah, I'll tell you.

269
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:20.120
I'll tell you something else as well.

270
00:16:20.200 --> 00:16:23.159
I walked into the studio I'm die Chris, and Chris

271
00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:30.679
was mixing an album and he said, who's that. I

272
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:35.720
don't know, it sounds very familiar, he said, it's it's

273
00:16:35.759 --> 00:16:39.279
ass and that was on the Mountain album. I said,

274
00:16:39.399 --> 00:16:43.159
that's brilliant, A brilliant album. That was it was there

275
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:44.519
just mixed his voice.

276
00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:48.600
Wow, that's cool. I have a cool eye story too.

277
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:54.960
Okay, So it was nineteen remember something eighty something, but

278
00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:59.200
it was New Year's Eve and it was right before

279
00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:04.599
Randy died. Okay, and I did that thing you know

280
00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:07.440
you tell your I told my dad, I I'm going

281
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:10.400
to sleep over my friend Bill's house. And Bill told

282
00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:13.319
his parents who was sleeping over my house? And we

283
00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:16.559
went to the Aussie show and we got to see

284
00:17:16.640 --> 00:17:21.319
Randy Rhoads thankfully, Like, man, what experience that was. But

285
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:23.640
then we get home and we're by my house. And

286
00:17:23.680 --> 00:17:27.880
I lived on this place called Lake Lindero in Agraa, California,

287
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:31.160
and I was, you had like a hill going down

288
00:17:31.240 --> 00:17:32.240
in my backyard.

289
00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:34.440
So we got you know, we got.

290
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:37.279
Home in the middle of the morning, so we decided

291
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:39.000
to just sit at the bomb at the lake where

292
00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:43.599
my dad couldn't see us, but you know, we were

293
00:17:43.720 --> 00:17:48.680
there to be able to go home. And this woman come,

294
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:51.079
that's my next door neighbor. She comes out of the house.

295
00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:54.359
I never met her, and we're wearing all the.

296
00:17:54.359 --> 00:17:55.440
Ozzy stuff, and she.

297
00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:58.880
Goes, oh, did you boys just go to Ozzie show

298
00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:02.000
last night? We're thinking should we even answer? We're in

299
00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:07.160
trouble now, we're busted, and we're just like, okay, yeah,

300
00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.880
yeah we did. She goes, stay right there, I want

301
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:16.599
to get my husband, and we're like, oh shit. He

302
00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:21.039
comes out, invites us up to his house, brings us

303
00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:24.039
He's got a studio in his house. It was wall

304
00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:29.680
to wall cassette tapes, and it turned out he was

305
00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:35.759
Ozzie's promoter, Like who knew lived right next door to

306
00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:38.720
be and so he gave us all kinds of schwag

307
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:42.359
and then he handed me this cassette tape. He said,

308
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:45.000
this band is not in the US yet, but they're

309
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:48.640
gonna be huge in the next six months. And I

310
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:53.039
listened to the first song and you'll know exactly who

311
00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:55.960
I'm talking about when I say this. And I just

312
00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:58.240
heard this big scratch of it.

313
00:18:58.240 --> 00:18:58.759
It was like.

314
00:19:02.599 --> 00:19:06.119
And then it's big scratch in the record, and the scream,

315
00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:11.079
the udo scream. It was as fast as a shark

316
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:14.279
by except and they weren't even in the US yet,

317
00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:17.240
No way. We were so cool with all our friends,

318
00:19:17.279 --> 00:19:22.759
were like check out this music and boom. Then you

319
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:24.079
know the rest of that story.

320
00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:28.960
So manager used to be Moore's first manager as well,

321
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:32.240
except first manager was Moore's first manager.

322
00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:34.839
Wow. Look at all the connections, right.

323
00:19:35.599 --> 00:19:40.319
And when Randy Rhoades died, a guy called Bernie Tormay

324
00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:44.200
took his place, I remember, and we used to rehearse

325
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:45.880
at his studio until he died.

326
00:19:46.160 --> 00:19:47.839
Meet Chris and the rest of the band.

327
00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:49.000
Wow.

328
00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:53.440
So check this out. That year that I saw Randy,

329
00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:56.839
I actually saw Ozzie with two other guard and guitarists.

330
00:19:56.880 --> 00:20:01.759
It wasn't Bernie either. Brad Gillis and believe it or not,

331
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:06.160
only played a couple of shows Pat Travers.

332
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:06.880
You know.

333
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:11.480
It's like, see, this is what's cool about metal, this history,

334
00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:15.920
this history here of how it's all started from the

335
00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:19.359
very beginning. When I talked to kids today and it's

336
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:22.759
like they don't even know bands like Iron Maiden, I

337
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:27.640
kind of scratch my head, like how are you a metal.

338
00:20:27.359 --> 00:20:29.680
Head and not know who my Iron Maiden is?

339
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:30.160
You know?

340
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:32.640
And it's true.

341
00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:36.720
It's like this evolvement that we've had, and thank God

342
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:39.960
for bands like you, because if it weren't for bands

343
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:41.680
like you, we wouldn't have metal today.

344
00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:45.559
Well, the kick we're doing in May, I think it's

345
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:49.079
the sixteenth twelve something like that is the Iron Maiden

346
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:51.519
Pop and it's called that because that is where Iron

347
00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:57.359
Maiden started. Oh yeah, it's a great place. It's called

348
00:20:57.359 --> 00:20:58.480
the Cards and Horses.

349
00:20:58.960 --> 00:20:59.599
So look it up.

350
00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:03.359
I've heard of that place. I've heard of.

351
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:06.240
Yeah, that's why we're playing. We're playing with their folks.

352
00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:13.359
Nice. Yes, very cool. I think everybody should check it out.

353
00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:14.079
Yeah.

354
00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:16.319
I have a funny Maiden story too where I live.

355
00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:19.279
I don't know if you noticed, but Nico lives right

356
00:21:19.319 --> 00:21:21.640
near me because I'm in South Florida is where I live.

357
00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:24.400
And so I was dating this girl.

358
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:28.880
There's this club, very small, it's like a little bar,

359
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:35.759
and it's in Fort Laurdale and it's called Cheers, and

360
00:21:35.799 --> 00:21:39.039
they basically have bands played there, like cover bands, and

361
00:21:39.079 --> 00:21:41.880
then they have like this thing called Scaryoke.

362
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:43.519
It's like punk rock karaoke.

363
00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:48.799
And one day she was outside the place and she

364
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:51.759
calls me up and she's like, man, there's this really

365
00:21:51.880 --> 00:21:57.720
good Maiden cover band playing. And then she walked inside

366
00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:00.200
and she calls me back. She's like, holy shit, it

367
00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:04.119
is Iron Maiden. And you know, they were warming up

368
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:06.440
for a tour, so they were playing this little bar

369
00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:09.559
like where nobody knew they were playing.

370
00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:14.000
So yeah, well yeah, well more went on tour with

371
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:20.039
them before I joined, unfortunately, but the tours with mate nice.

372
00:22:20.680 --> 00:22:23.079
Well, is there anything else you want to share with

373
00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:27.119
our listeners about more about the album that we haven't

374
00:22:27.160 --> 00:22:28.200
covered already.

375
00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:30.519
Well, I don't know. I don't think so.

376
00:22:31.079 --> 00:22:33.720
I think we covered it all right, we have here.

377
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:37.920
Well, but just look out for us because we'll be

378
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:41.519
out there. We want to get over to the America,

379
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:43.680
the Americas as soon as we can.

380
00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:46.640
Yeah, let's get you on some festivals here. I cover

381
00:22:46.759 --> 00:22:49.319
all the Danny Wimmer festivals. So I'm yelling out to

382
00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:51.359
him he needs to put more on the lineups for

383
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:52.559
twenty twenty seven.

384
00:22:54.519 --> 00:22:57.559
I've never been to the States and I want to

385
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:01.039
come there, and both my children have been over there, but.

386
00:23:01.039 --> 00:23:06.079
