A brand new modern hard rock band has officially arrived. Brian Wheat (Tesla) and Tommy Skeoch (formerly of Tesla, Bad Marriage) have joined forces with Josey Scott (Original Voice of Saliva) and Chris Holmes (formerly of W.A.S.P.) to form a new band called T3rminal.

How are you?

29
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:19.879
I'm doing great And I was really excited when I

30
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:25.639
saw the press release for this because I was just

31
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:29.240
doing coverage at Hell's Heroes a couple of weeks ago,

32
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:32.599
and I saw my old friend who haven't seen in

33
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:37.400
over forty years, Chris Holmes. That back back in the

34
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:42.000
Hollywood days, we would hang out at the mall together, and.

35
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.159
So it was. It was really cool.

36
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:48.719
Like right after I got back, I saw this press

37
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:52.360
release that you guys are all forming this new band, Terminal,

38
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.759
and man, that's so exciting. I want to know the

39
00:02:55.879 --> 00:02:57.520
story of how this happened.

40
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:04.560
Well, how it happened. Was it started when I ran

41
00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:09.840
into Chris. I met Chris a long time ago when

42
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:13.039
he was in Wasp and Tessa played La I think

43
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:17.520
the first time with def Leppard and Chris came to

44
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:22.080
the show, and I don't remember much about seeing him

45
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.560
or whatever he was, you know, in his full Chris

46
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:31.560
Holmes back then and fast forward to about three years ago.

47
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:35.800
Two three years ago, his documentary came out on Amazon

48
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.439
Mean Man, and a friend of mine called me and said, hey,

49
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:42.840
you got to watch this, and I said, what is that.

50
00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:45.120
He says, it's the guy from Wasp and I thought

51
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:47.840
it was about Blackie and he went, no, it's the

52
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:49.960
guitar player Chris Holmes. I said, oh, I met that

53
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:54.159
guy and I had ran into him. Frank had ran

54
00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:57.719
into him when we played Hellfest in France a couple

55
00:03:57.759 --> 00:03:58.319
of years ago.

56
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:01.520
But I think that I saw you there by the way.

57
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:02.120
Yeah.

58
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:06.360
I didn't talk to Chris that day, but Frank did.

59
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:12.759
So I went to this Monster's or rock cruise that

60
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:17.279
Tessa plays on and Chris was playing on it. And

61
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:19.959
the first year I was supposed to see him, he

62
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.079
had got the throat cancer, so he canceled. The next year,

63
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:26.199
I was on there selling my art but I wasn't

64
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:29.360
playing and he was playing. So I went up to

65
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:34.800
his wife or him whoever was. It was him in Sarah,

66
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:36.839
but I didn't know who it was, and I said, hey,

67
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:39.839
I'm Brian from Tessa. I'd like to say hello to Chris.

68
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:46.079
And he came over and you know, we started talking

69
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:48.959
and I said, cool, you know I saw your thing.

70
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:51.319
I just wanted to say hi, and you know I

71
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:53.879
remember meeting you, and he's like cool. So then we

72
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:56.720
got on the boat the next day and he's like, hey, dude,

73
00:04:57.560 --> 00:04:59.839
I rented him. Let's have lunch together. They got talk.

74
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:02.360
I can't get tacos in France. I mean, you know

75
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:08.879
how Chris is. Chris is a large personality. And I said, great.

76
00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:11.680
So we're sitting there in the buffet and he's eating

77
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:15.959
tacos and we're talking about just life and being in

78
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.480
a band and you know, this, that and the other,

79
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.879
and I you know, after I was listening to him

80
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:25.040
for a while and I said, Chris, you know I

81
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:27.959
got a question for it. All these years you went wasp.

82
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:30.639
You know, you're a famous guy. I mean, you know,

83
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.720
to me, he's like the Keith Richards of heavy metal.

84
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:40.959
You know, and how come you never joined another band

85
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:43.920
or you know, started another bend? He said, well, no

86
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:45.720
one ever wanted to be in a band with me.

87
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:49.240
And I said, wow, okay, well I'll be in a

88
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:49.839
band with you.

89
00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:52.560
Nice And he said okay.

90
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:55.560
So he lives in France and I live in New York,

91
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:57.839
upstate New York. And also I have a place in

92
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:00.759
Italy which is close to his place in France. I said, listen,

93
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:04.800
I'm being in Italy next month. Why don't you come

94
00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:09.560
up to my farm and we'll see if we can

95
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.680
put some songs together, Because you know, it's one thing

96
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:15.279
to say you can be in a band together. Let's

97
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:18.480
make a band and that worked great. We wrote like

98
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:21.480
three songs and we hit it off, and you know,

99
00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:24.040
I just I love the guy. I have like an

100
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.319
instant kinship with the guy. So when that happened, and

101
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:30.759
I decided that me and Chris were gonna do something together.

102
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:32.319
And then it's like, well, okay, if we're gonna have

103
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:33.759
a band, we gotta have a singer.

104
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.560
And another guitar player and a crupper.

105
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:37.680
So I said, hey, you know who would be a

106
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:43.720
great second guitarist. Another guitarist is my old friend Tommy

107
00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:46.360
Skill who was in Tesla. Me and him have reconnected

108
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:50.120
and you know, I love him and I missed working

109
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:53.199
with him, and what do you think about They said, what, Okay,

110
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:55.480
I'd be cool. I mean if we can get along.

111
00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:59.160
So so then me and Tommy got together, right, and

112
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:02.839
we had written songs since we'd written songs in Tesla,

113
00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:04.120
but that was like riding.

114
00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:04.839
A bike, you know what I mean.

115
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:06.360
It's like, yeah, yeah, wait.

116
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:08.439
Missed step. So me and him were fine. And then

117
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:10.759
I said, you know, tom would you be into playing

118
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:13.600
with me and christ And he said yeah sure, So

119
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:16.079
then I had to get those two together. And then

120
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:19.120
the three of us got together and and we were

121
00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:22.319
put together a bunch of music. And once I knew

122
00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:24.360
Tom and Chris got along and me and Tom and

123
00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:27.920
Chris and it's like, Okay, I know the perfect singer

124
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:32.199
for this band. And the perfect singer was Josie Right,

125
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.879
who I'd met when Your Disease came out and I

126
00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:38.199
was listening to that on the radio and Tesla just

127
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:41.680
gotten back together after being apart for five years, and

128
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:44.319
I went up to his tour manager and said, hey,

129
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:46.199
I'd like to meet the guys in that band. I

130
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:48.839
really liked that song. And he took me in the

131
00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:51.000
dress room and Josie was there, and he's like, hey man,

132
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:53.079
I ain't doing your Brian. I saw you mad Island

133
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:56.040
where I was a kid, and I just I loved

134
00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:59.839
Josie from that day. He was just the most nicest, sweet,

135
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:04.720
coolest guy. And I loved like his look and all

136
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:07.680
the tattoos and the bling and all that stuff. Right,

137
00:08:08.279 --> 00:08:10.720
hey man, what's with all that stuff? He's like, Hey man,

138
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:11.439
I'm from Memphis.

139
00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:11.720
Man.

140
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:17.680
That was so then I called Josey and said, hey, Josie,

141
00:08:17.879 --> 00:08:20.920
I'm putting together the Tommy sk and Chris Holmes. Would

142
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:24.839
you be interested. He said, well, yeah I would. I said, well,

143
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:27.120
let me send you some music, you know, because for

144
00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:30.199
all he knew, it could have been terrible. And I

145
00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:32.240
sent him some and he said, yeah, I can, I

146
00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:35.120
can dig this. I said, well cool. So then it

147
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:39.120
was getting you know, Josie. He came and worked with

148
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:40.879
me for a couple of days and we put together

149
00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:45.559
some songs. On those songs right then, those guys heard it,

150
00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:49.440
Tommy and Chris, and they were like, fucked, he's amazing.

151
00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:53.000
This is perfect. So then it was like, okay, Josie, come,

152
00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:55.600
let's see. That was eve. All four of us can

153
00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:59.799
get together and dig each other. And we did that,

154
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:02.320
and that's it, man, that's the story of how we

155
00:09:02.440 --> 00:09:03.000
got together.

156
00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:06.240
And that is key that you have to get along.

157
00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:11.759
And I was watching the video of your you know,

158
00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:17.320
introducing the band, and I was like, yeah, that's so Chris.

159
00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:20.360
He was like making fun of with the sunglasses and stuff,

160
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:23.919
and it was like you could see the camaraderie there,

161
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.360
and that is so key in any band for sure,

162
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:30.759
as you guys will know, you know, so.

163
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:32.120
That that's way cool.

164
00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:34.120
And then when I saw him a couple of weeks ago,

165
00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:37.519
I'm like, hey, what's going on? Blah blah blah, and

166
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:40.799
he's like, yeah, I'm old now I can't do what

167
00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:43.320
I used to Like he used to back in the day,

168
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.639
he would run full speed into his Marshall stack and

169
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.559
knock it all over while he's in the middle of

170
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:55.279
a solo. And I watched him play, I'm like, holy shit,

171
00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:58.759
he still is, like, oh my god.

172
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:00.440
He was all over the place.

173
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:04.799
He was saying, yeah, he was making to me like

174
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:06.879
before to go, I'm lucky if I could walk up

175
00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:08.440
to the stage at this age.

176
00:10:08.879 --> 00:10:11.279
But then he was just like as as this.

177
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:16.440
Show started, he was everywhere. It was flashbacks of the

178
00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:21.440
early eighties for sure. So now combining all of you

179
00:10:21.639 --> 00:10:25.200
together in one band, Oh my god, Like, that's like,

180
00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:29.799
I don't know, that's gonna be the the firestorm of

181
00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:31.240
twenty twenty six.

182
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:36.279
I think, yes, yeah, I hope. So there you go,

183
00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:41.480
There you go. So when can we see some of

184
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:42.559
this new music.

185
00:10:44.440 --> 00:10:51.159
Well, right now we're in the writing process. Josie's just

186
00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:54.120
now getting ready to go out and play some Saliva dates.

187
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:57.759
Oh that's right, he can't. He can't call it saliva, right,

188
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:05.039
but he is Saliva, no doubt. Yeah, I mean click

189
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:11.120
click boom your disease always superstar ladies and gentlemen. These

190
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:15.600
are all Josie's Scott songs from the band he started

191
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:22.279
in his garage. So yeah, but anyways, go see Josie Scott,

192
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:27.360
the man who started Saliva, created it him and Wayne.

193
00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:30.159
Wayne's no longer with us, but Josie's out there and

194
00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:33.279
singing the songs better than he's ever sang him. Uh,

195
00:11:34.120 --> 00:11:39.159
so he's doing that. I've got some work with Tesla obviously.

196
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:42.399
I got this Tesla Monty Crue tour this summer. Yeah,

197
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:46.519
this is taking care of some personal issues in Paris. Uh.

198
00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:49.039
But you know we're getting together again in a couple

199
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:52.279
of weeks, me, Tommy and Chelsea. So it's it's kind

200
00:11:52.320 --> 00:12:00.600
of an ongoing process. I would say realistically, by the

201
00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:03.279
end of the year, we should have a single out

202
00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:07.399
what we're gonna do. I mean, people are calling me.

203
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:11.840
Someone called me yesterday today. When can Terminal come and

204
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:14.120
play soon?

205
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:14.720
I love it?

206
00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:18.240
Yeah, but right now, you know, we we we got

207
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:22.039
things we're doing. So yes, It's the beauty of the

208
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:25.320
thing is that we we all of us have other

209
00:12:25.399 --> 00:12:27.360
things that we do, but we connect in the in

210
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:31.200
the Terminal, and the Terminal is you know me, Josey,

211
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:36.039
Tommy and and and Chris. We get together and that's

212
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.360
where the magic happens.

213
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:45.080
So how for the listeners, how would you describe how

214
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:49.440
Terminal music is going to be? Because you know all

215
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:56.159
three great bands Wasp, Tesla, Saliva, but very different too

216
00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:58.279
in a lot of ways. Similar in a lot of ways,

217
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:01.600
but very different. So how are all those influences what

218
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:03.080
is that going to create?

219
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:05.879
Chelsea?

220
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:13.639
You'd be surprised how well we have gelled together.

221
00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:15.720
In the studio.

222
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:17.440
I think.

223
00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:25.759
The sound, the natural Tesla sound that Brian and Tommy

224
00:13:25.919 --> 00:13:32.960
have lends itself perfectly to what Chris does with his

225
00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:38.840
you know, sexy eighties go go dancer type guitar riffs,

226
00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:45.559
and then you know, I just come in and and

227
00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:52.159
you know, lay down, you know what I'd like? Like

228
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:54.360
Brian says, this is what I do. You know what

229
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:54.679
I mean?

230
00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:55.960
This is all I know how to do.

231
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:00.360
Is has come in and sing my home art.

232
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:00.960
You know what I mean?

233
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:05.879
Right about whatever's going on around us. I've written some

234
00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:10.039
songs about, uh, the different characters that I'm in a

235
00:14:10.120 --> 00:14:15.159
band with in Terminal, and I've written some things about

236
00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:18.320
life and about heartbreak. God knows, we've all been through

237
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:24.279
enough heartbreak for ten albums and ten lifetimes. Yeah, So,

238
00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:29.279
I mean it's just something because you know, like the

239
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:31.240
end of the day, you can want to be in

240
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.200
a band all you want to and it not gel

241
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:38.519
or you know, not come together. And and this is

242
00:14:38.679 --> 00:14:43.399
surprisingly just really jelled and come together perfectly and in

243
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:47.519
in this pot of stew that we're making that's terminal.

244
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:51.039
I think people are going to be really surprised. I

245
00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:53.399
don't want to give it. I don't want to give

246
00:14:53.440 --> 00:14:56.279
it away. There's more I'd like to say on it,

247
00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:58.919
but I want I would want you to hear it first.

248
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.200
I write a little bit on that. The funny thing

249
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:05.759
is you you say you know, I'll tell you what

250
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:09.440
it doesn't sound like. It doesn't sound like Tesla, It

251
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:16.679
doesn't sound like Wasps and Josie like any band right,

252
00:15:17.559 --> 00:15:20.559
Like the voice of Tesla's Jeff Keith. The voice of

253
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:26.360
Saliva is Josie Scott, right, the voice of Wasp was Blackie.

254
00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:31.200
It doesn't sound like Tesla or Wasp and I don't

255
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:36.480
and doesn't sound like Saliva outside of its Josie singing. Yeah,

256
00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:39.679
so it's gotta it's I will say, it's got a

257
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:43.039
modern rock sound to it, right. We don't want to

258
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:45.960
give too much away, like Josie says, but if you're

259
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:49.679
expecting to hear like you know, oh that that's that

260
00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:53.600
runs me of Tesla, it it doesn't have that sound.

261
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:58.440
I'm glad that because it already Tesla right.

262
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:03.039
Exactly right, and there's already there's already Josie Scott Saliva. Right.

263
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:05.799
But what this is is all those guys coming together

264
00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:09.120
with everything they know and everything they grew up and

265
00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:12.519
everything they were inspired by, and putting it together. And

266
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:15.200
that's why it's called terminal, you know, because what's that?

267
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:18.600
What happens in a in a terminal? Yeah, right, an

268
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:20.799
airport terminal. You got people coming and going from all

269
00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:24.399
different places all over the world, and they all meet

270
00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:26.759
at the terminal to go somewhere else on an on

271
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:29.759
a journey. And this is this is a journey. I

272
00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:32.799
scratched in my arm because I have the I'm not

273
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:40.039
a junkie, uh, I have the terminal tattoo and it's motherfucker.

274
00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:42.840
Oh I can't see it here is it on your

275
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:46.200
nice right.

276
00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:48.039
There?

277
00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:50.759
And it's itching, So I don't want you to think

278
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:55.480
I'm like a man, right, and you got to em vacue.

279
00:16:55.600 --> 00:16:59.679
I see that. There you go. I got mine too.

280
00:16:59.799 --> 00:17:02.320
It's mind mind a little bit.

281
00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:06.039
Yeah, it's got a itch on the neck like that, right,

282
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:07.359
is that itch.

283
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:09.160
Like on his back? And I don't think he can

284
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:13.400
reach it. And Tommy's is on his hand right here.

285
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:17.640
But you know, I think people are going to be

286
00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:21.359
surprised because I don't think it's gonna be what you

287
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:24.880
know on paper. It always appears to be one thing, right,

288
00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:26.799
you put it lip on paper and you go, okay,

289
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:32.640
but this is gonna it's different because, like I said,

290
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:35.240
it's not what you would expect.

291
00:17:35.759 --> 00:17:38.680
Right, And that's why I said what I did too

292
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:41.519
about that coming from the different bands, because it's not

293
00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:45.160
like you had three of the exact same type of

294
00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:47.279
band coming together, you know.

295
00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:53.359
And even in Tesla, me and Tommy we're both from

296
00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:58.079
different places. Like Tommy had the real heavy, you know stuff,

297
00:17:58.079 --> 00:18:00.880
and I would write, you know, the more pop song

298
00:18:01.079 --> 00:18:03.640
like call it what you Want or Paradise or you

299
00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:05.960
know something like that, where he would write Heaven's Trail

300
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:09.640
or something. So that was a combination. So you take

301
00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:13.200
that element of tom who's he's into newer heavy music

302
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:16.640
and I'm into I listened to you know, Miley Cyrus,

303
00:18:16.799 --> 00:18:20.039
I listened to, you know, pop music. I listened to

304
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:22.279
the beat I come from all, you know what I mean.

305
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:25.039
So it's just we just take all these influences and

306
00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:28.400
no one's got any egos or there's no bullshit like

307
00:18:28.480 --> 00:18:31.960
that to deal with, and we all contribute and we

308
00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:34.960
try to make the best song. Because Josie will tell

309
00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:38.559
you what about songs, Josie, the song is the king.

310
00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:44.079
That's it. It's about It's about the songs. But you

311
00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:49.279
will hear this guitar army of Tommy Skeel and Chris Holmes.

312
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:53.160
That's there, man, and they work so well together. And

313
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:56.559
you you want to hear Jo, You're gonna hear Josie

314
00:18:56.640 --> 00:19:00.200
Scott as you want to hear Josie Scott, right, And

315
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:03.039
you know I do what I do. Man, I'm that

316
00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:06.000
guy that plays that bass thing and he's.

317
00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:08.319
A monster bass player in the studio.

318
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:11.720
And stop it only four notes, but I played the

319
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:12.519
fun out of there.

320
00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:19.000
Come on, all these years, you must have learned the

321
00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:21.200
fifth though, four or five?

322
00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:24.160
You know, I never played the high string.

323
00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:27.279
It's a way, well, I got I do have to

324
00:19:27.400 --> 00:19:30.920
say that. I'm I'm gonna pick a bone and she'll

325
00:19:31.000 --> 00:19:32.960
listen as a laugh. But I'm gonna pick a bone

326
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:36.359
with Shauna because she should have. In the press release

327
00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:39.759
called you guys a super group, because like there's all

328
00:19:39.839 --> 00:19:42.640
these bands coming out there super groups. I'm like, yeah,

329
00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:45.440
that's not a supergroup. But then I see you guys,

330
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:47.240
and I'm like, that's a super curse.

331
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:50.319
Something that's for someone like you to say.

332
00:19:50.839 --> 00:19:53.400
That's right, that's right, said.

333
00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:57.119
That people would think we're arrogant, and that was for sure.

334
00:19:57.720 --> 00:19:59.920
It wasn't like, hey, I want to make a supergroup.

335
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:03.160
It happened for me. I mean, I guess I'm the

336
00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:06.960
catalyst because I ran into Chris and then I just thought, well,

337
00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:11.720
you know, I play in this great band, you know, Tesla.

338
00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:16.759
I mean, listen, we've done okay a little bit, and

339
00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:19.119
those are my brothers, right, But then I have my

340
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:22.480
other friends that are my brothers and that I see

341
00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:24.960
and I talked to when I'm not in Tesla. So

342
00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:29.400
for me, that was the thing. It's like I I

343
00:20:29.759 --> 00:20:34.759
told Josie, like I always envisioned doing something with him

344
00:20:34.759 --> 00:20:37.480
from the day I met him. Like we just connected,

345
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:42.000
Like we've stayed in touch for twenty years, and you know,

346
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:44.720
even though he was off doing something or I was

347
00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:47.680
off and he got on the Triple Beer, and we

348
00:20:47.839 --> 00:20:51.119
always managed to always connect every once in a while.

349
00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:51.960
Hey man, how you doing.

350
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:52.599
How's it going?

351
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:53.119
Hey man?

352
00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:55.599
You know, hey, I wish I seen you. Man. Oh,

353
00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:59.440
I love that song. You know that was great. And

354
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:01.200
you know what, Tommy, we've had a bit of a

355
00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:04.799
rougher time because you know, listen talk about heartbreak. I mean,

356
00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:08.119
he you know, I started in the garage with Frank

357
00:21:08.279 --> 00:21:12.599
and and Tommy even before Jeff Keith. Oh no, Jeff

358
00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:16.160
Keith came. But truthly, Tommy came before, but he wouldn't

359
00:21:16.240 --> 00:21:20.680
join us because we weren't cool enough, and then didn't

360
00:21:20.720 --> 00:21:23.480
find me he joined our band. And but the four

361
00:21:23.559 --> 00:21:26.519
of us, you know, in Tesla were always you know,

362
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:28.559
the four of us, Me, Frank, Tommy, and Jeff were

363
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:31.960
always on the same page. So when you know, tom left,

364
00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:35.039
and you know, it's been pretty documented what his issues were,

365
00:21:35.839 --> 00:21:38.200
you know, out of you know, heartbreak and hurt and

366
00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:41.160
pride and eagle and shit, we both kind of attacked

367
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:46.119
each other and but once we ran into each other.

368
00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:49.119
After seventeen years, all that shit just melted away and

369
00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:51.359
then I you know, it's like maybe there was five

370
00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:55.279
percent of bad shit right at that point, I just

371
00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:58.079
remembered all the ninety five percent of good shit. And

372
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:00.079
when I want to work with my brother again, you

373
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:01.880
know what I mean, I want to you know, you

374
00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:04.000
can't come back to Tesla right now, even though that's

375
00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:06.759
a whole other topic that one day when Tesla does

376
00:22:06.799 --> 00:22:10.400
a final lap, I said it, I'll say it again here.

377
00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:13.720
I want Tommy Skill back, I want Troy Laketta back.

378
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:16.759
I want Dave Rude there. Dave Rud's not going anywhere.

379
00:22:16.839 --> 00:22:19.359
We have three guitar players. I'm trying to put that

380
00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:21.119
all together. When there's one lap, I don't know when

381
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:24.200
that one lap is. When it is, i'll let you know.

382
00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:29.119
But with Terminal, it's like these are all my buddies, you.

383
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:32.160
Know what I mean. And it's got to be exciting too,

384
00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:37.599
like with people you like, and it's got to be

385
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:39.920
exciting and new and fresh. When you guys have been

386
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:42.880
doing it as long as you've been doing it, you know,

387
00:22:43.480 --> 00:22:47.559
sometimes you need that new freshness, like when you were

388
00:22:47.680 --> 00:22:49.920
teenagers first get into music.

389
00:22:50.839 --> 00:22:53.480
Yeah, and it's totally been like that too, you know,

390
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:58.319
it's it's been you know. It reminds me of the

391
00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:01.400
whole reason I started in this in the first place.

392
00:23:02.119 --> 00:23:05.839
And the best, most fun moments are always when the

393
00:23:05.960 --> 00:23:12.319
band first starts. Yeah before uh, you know, not to

394
00:23:12.440 --> 00:23:15.400
speak of this band, but I can only speak from

395
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:21.119
my experience with with Saliva and my band before Saliva Blackbone, Uh,

396
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:25.960
