00:00:56.479 --> 00:01:02.439
gree F. I love it.
That's why I always have the artists do
9
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:04.200
it, because they do it cooler
than me. Oh well, you know,
10
00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:07.879
I actually don't like doing those sorts
of things. I'm pretty shy when
11
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:12.040
it comes to that stuff. But
I put on my radio voice and hey,
12
00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:17.239
it's time to listen to Top forty. I love it. Yeah,
13

you know what, We're gonna have
a great time today. It's gonna be
14
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.840
an incredible show down here a riot
Fast two thousand and twenty three. Yeah,
15
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.000
and you just got off stage and
killed it. That's what they say.
16
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:33.640
What a crowd you that had out
there. I was shocked. I
17
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:36.680
couldn't believe it. To be honest, really, yeah, I don't know
18
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.000
what. I don't know what to
expect, but I didn't expect that.
19
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.400
I was expecting, like, honestly, like a few hundred people. I
20
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:48.560
was like, it's the middle of
the afternoon, nobody's probably even here yet
21
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:53.879
when we drove. When we pulled
up, it looked ugly. I mean
22
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:57.120
literally, we showed up. What
time we go on two fifteen? We
23
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:00.000
showed up at like one, and
we walked out to that stage and there
24
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:07.280
was nobody there. It was an
empty field. There was maybe i'd say
25
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.759
twenty thirty people watching the people that
were on the stage at the time.
26
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:14.560
And I was like, Okay,
this is gonna be embarrassing. This is
27
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.599
gonna be like the smallest crowd ever
at any festival. But I can handle
28
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:20.639
it. You know, it won't
be the first time I've had to eat
29
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.800
some humble pie. I can handle
it. I'm like whatever. So I
30
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.599
go in my you know, bus, I start getting ready and then people
31
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:29.280
are like, oh, there's a
lot of people coming. There's a lot
32
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:30.840
of people. Go I was like, yeah, okay, maybe there'll be
33
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:32.439
a few hundred. All right,
we'll be good. And then I walk
34
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:37.120
out there and they were like,
this is the most people we've had on
35
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.680
the side of the stage all weekend, and this is the most people ever
36
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:47.479
to fill up an afternoon side show. And I'm like, really, I
37
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:52.120
am surprised time of day because like
you said, like time of day,
38
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:55.120
it's like people were out party and
probably last Yeah. Yeah, I'm not
39
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:59.120
ready to How did they get there
so fast? I mean, how's that
40
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:02.000
even possible? How does it go
from like zero to twenty thousand or thirty
41
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:07.159
that? Whatever? That was,
well I was I was honored and humbled
42
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.599
by that, trust me. So
what an experience. And I gotta tell
43
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:15.560
you mad respect for you because I
don't know if her listeners know this,
44
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:22.120
but you hurt your meniscus and you
were out there pocket it anyway. Two
45
00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:25.439
both knees. Both knees are torn. This knee has got two tears.
46
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:31.520
I had injections of steroids in it
right before the tour, injections into my
47
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:36.080
back because I've got four slip discs. I mean, I don't know.
48
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:40.240
I guess what I do is kind
of like extreme sports. People don't realize
49
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:44.919
it, but I don't know many
guys. I don't want to say my
50
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:49.159
age because at twenty two I shouldn't
really be complaining. But you know,
51
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:52.520
at twenty two, I don't know
many guys my age that dance as hard
52
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.599
as I do for as long as
I do every night. There's I don't
53
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:58.680
think anyone. I mean, even
if you look at like the boy bands,
54
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:00.520
they do the choography and stuff,
but first of all, they're not
55
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:04.000
the same age as me. They're
all like ten fifteen years younger than me,
56
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:10.080
and they're doing limited choreography. They're
not just getting down and doing these
57
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:13.479
crazy rock songs and stuff. So
yeah, I'm doing both. You know,
58
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:17.160
it's crazy. So well, was
that moment in your life, Larry,
59
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.800
you decide how much you loved music
that you would want to do something
60
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:25.040
like this that ended you here?
Well, not ended you, but brought
61
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:29.639
you here to riot? Always man
always. I mean I played all right,
62
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:32.759
my very The very first live performance
I did was a festival crowd.
63
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:38.360
The first performance I did ever in
front of an audience happened to be at
64
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:43.759
the Rose Bowl, WHOA for forty
thousand people. That was my first taste
65
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:47.319
of performing. Wow, what feeling. I was twelve years old, thirteen
66
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:53.120
maybe right around stand by me Era
and I had just started like watching Michael
67
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:57.439
Jackson and doing the whole Billie Jean
thing, and so like, I like
68
00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:00.199
got very confident in my dancing,
my style dancing and all that kind of
69
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.439
stuff. And then like I was
like, you know what, people were
70
00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:05.920
like, you know, it's this
big charity event, it's at the Rose
71
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.519
Bowl. We'd love it to come
out and say if you were if you
72
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:13.519
have anything you do, you're welcome
to perform. Do you have like a
73
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:15.639
you know, a single or a
cassette or something you want us to play.
74
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.319
I'm like no. They're like,
okay, well what do you want
75
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:21.319
to do? And I'm like,
well I can. I can pretend to
76
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:25.240
be Michael Jackson and you know,
lip sync Billy Jean. And they're like,
77
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:27.800
perfect, let's do that. So
I was like all right, So
78
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.040
I got up and I did it, and there was forty thousand people cheering
79
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:32.480
and freaking out, and I was
like, there's something to this. Nice.
80
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:36.040
I can do this, But I
think I'm gonna need to come up
81
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:40.600
with my own material because I really
shouldn't be the guy that's going around lip
82
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:44.319
syncing other people's material, you know
what I mean, actually come up with
83
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.879
my own stuff. So that was
what really inspired me to start writing and
84
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:51.759
producing my own music and creating material
that I could tour with it. Kind
85
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:57.319
of you remind me of a friend
of mine that you probably know from the
86
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:03.160
Pretty Reckless Tailor and tell her momson
she would she started acting and stuff,
87
00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:06.399
but she's really a rock and roller. Okay, cool, you know,
88
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:14.040
so she chose rock and roll right. People chose acting for her right,
89
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:16.439
and she chose rock and roll exactly
like I was. Like, I mean,
90
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:18.759
I started singing, you know when
I was three years old. I
91
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:23.160
would sing to get my auditions as
a kid. You know, That's how
92
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:27.800
I got my parts is I would
literally just like sing because I couldn't memorize.
93
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:30.120
You know, a lot. You
can't read lines when you're three years
94
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.199
old, Like there's no way to
read a line right or memorize a script.
95
00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:38.160
So you have to prove that you
can handle shit or whatever. So
96
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:41.240
what do they do. They go
and they have you like sing a song
97
00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:45.199
to like show that you can memorize
and that you can like be cute and
98
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:48.160
whatever. So my mom would stick
me in a room with a record player
99
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:51.079
and she'ld have me memorize songs and
so what I do is I'd come out
100
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:54.959
and I'd sing songs for auditions,
and that's how i'd get my parts.
101
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:58.519
Nice, Yeah, and that was
what started it. So the bottom line
102
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:01.319
is I was singing before I was. You made me think of being in
103
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:05.639
Hebrew school and memorizing Hebrew but not
having any clue what I was saying,
104
00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:14.079
but memorizing all the prayers but all
that. Hi, Yeah, I got
105
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:17.560
you man, right, you know
what I'm saying totally. So you're also
106
00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:25.560
into charitable stuff that's really really important. Let's talk about that a little bit.
107
00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:30.120
Okay, So what's your what's your
passion charity wise? What's your passion
108
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:35.759
for helping people and helping kids?
Well, I always do, like basically
109
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:40.800
everything that I can. I lend
my voice wherever I can to those who
110
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:44.920
don't have one. So, whether
that's the environment, whether it's children,
111
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:47.399
whether it's animals. You know,
I've been a vegetarian since I was twelve
112
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.839
years old. Nice, I've been
you know, doing animal rights work.
113
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:58.079
I've helped change laws in several states
for animal rights. I've helped change laws
114
00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:05.040
for children to protect you know,
victims of abuse, changing statutes of limitations.
115
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:07.959
So I mean, obviously I'm not
doing any of it on my own
116
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:11.959
single handedly, but I'm nobody can
you know, a team of people that
117
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.040
I work with. But for example, I'm an ambassador a Child USA where
118
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.079
I help to you know, change
statutes and stuff like that. So,
119
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:22.680
you know, whatever I can do
to make a difference in the world,
120
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:26.360
make it a better place through advocacy
and work, you know, getting on
121
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:28.240
the on the ground and getting on
the floor and doing it. Like you
122
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:33.200
know, I've spoken to the floor
and the Senate in Boston and you know,
123
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:39.360
been officially recognized on the Senate floor
in Albany, New York and things
124
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:41.679
like that. So that's nice.
You know, it's nice to actually get
125
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:45.639
your word out there and make a
difference, hopefully, I think. So,
126
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:48.799
I think it's great somebody like you
that you certainly don't have to do
127
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.440
those things, so you choose to
do those things and because you have a
128
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:58.480
voice and because people know you,
you can make a difference and not everybody
129
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.799
in the industry does that. So
my hats off that you thank you.
130
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:03.799
Well. You know, look,
I unfortunately had to endure a lot of
131
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:07.840
pain and suffering as a child,
and uh, you know, I do
132
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.919
what I can to try and prevent
others from having to go down those same
133
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:16.679
roads and have those same experience.
Do you think there's been change? Do
134
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.000
you think it's better now than when
you were a kid? No, that's
135
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:22.960
unfortunate, not at all. That's
unfortunate, But I'm glad you're Unfortunately,
136
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:28.600
they don't they don't take it seriously, you know. I mean, there's
137
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:31.600
very simple rules that can be changed
within the unions that can protect children,
138
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:35.039
and they just simply won't do it. Or and I tried to do it,
139
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:37.679
they gasolate me and threw me under
the bus and try to act like
140
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:41.159
I was the bad guy. And
it's just, you know, unfortunate,
141
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:43.159
but that's that's the way the game
is played. Yeah. Well, I
142
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:48.879
think you're a good guy because I
don't care what they think you experienced things.
143
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.279
You shared your experiences for that alone
makes you a good guy, because
144
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:56.679
not everybody shares their experiences, you
know. No, they just try to
145
00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:01.080
twist my character and you know,
spread lot and rumors into fami and gaslight.
146
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:07.799
But that's what they do to every
whistleblower, to every survivor. They
147
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:09.879
don't want you to they don't want
you to win because they're worried about the
148
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.879
big deal pocketbook, that's what they
really care about, instead of caring about
149
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:18.639
the safety and the sanctity of our
children, which should be the most important
150
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:22.279
thing in the world. So I
gotta tell you something too. Yesterday I
151
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:26.879
called the person I have multiple radio
studios. I called the person that runs
152
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:31.200
my Louisiana studio because I know for
eleven years her working with me. She's
153
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:35.600
like your number one fan. So
I called her up. I'm like,
154
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.679
yeah, you're not gonna like me
too much because she's on the air too,
155
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:45.279
and I'm like, yeah, I'm
interviewing somebody you would want interview tomorrow.
156
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:48.960
So I busted her chops her,
I send my love. Well,
157
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:54.240
there you go. She'll love that. There you go. There anything that's
158
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.360
right? Is there any other message
you want put out there in the world
159
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.480
that because I want everybody to come
to see our tour while we're out here
160
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:05.799
and maybe the last time I ever
do a solo tour like this where I'm
161
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:09.799
you know, doing all the dance
moves and the costume changes and all this
162
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:13.399
stuff. It's it's a big production, a big show in small venues,
163
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.960
and you can't get that anywhere else. So you know, unlike the thirty
164
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:20.039
forty thousand people that just watched as
Arrive Fest, we're doing like thousand seed

178
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:16.799
everybody about your new surprise single that
came out recent Exceptive Debra. Yes,
179
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:22.600
we played that here at riot Fest, all right, And what meaning does
180
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:24.440
that song have to you? Oh? You know, it's just about those
181
00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:30.759
lying, filthy you know ex's.
I will just say that I have a
182
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:33.639
couple of them myself, so I
hear what you're saying. Not it's not
183
00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:37.639
about my current wife. If a
lot of people think that's what it is,
184
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.600
but it's really not. It's she
was in fact in the studio with
185
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:46.600
me while I was creating it.
So well, there you go. Well,
186
00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:52.559
I am so happy you're here at
riot Fest. I am totally like
187
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:58.000
impressed with you, regardless of the
backlash, regardless of the gas line that
188
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:03.200
you keep speaking up or people that
need somebody like you to speak for them
189
00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:07.039
and being true and real to who
you are and what you've been through.
190
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:11.399
It takes a lot of guts you
certainly don't have to and for that,
191
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:16.759
I think you're the best one right
there. Thank you, my friend.

That's why I always have the artists do
9
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:04.200
it, because they do it cooler
than me. Oh well, you know,
10
00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:07.879
I actually don't like doing those sorts
of things. I'm pretty shy when
11
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:12.040
it comes to that stuff. But
I put on my radio voice and hey,
12
00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:17.239
it's time to listen to Top forty. I love it. Yeah,
13
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:19.959
you know what, We're gonna have
a great time today. It's gonna be
14
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.840
an incredible show down here a riot
Fast two thousand and twenty three. Yeah,
15
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.000
and you just got off stage and
killed it. That's what they say.
16
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:33.640
What a crowd you that had out
there. I was shocked. I
17
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:36.680
couldn't believe it. To be honest, really, yeah, I don't know
18
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.000
what. I don't know what to
expect, but I didn't expect that.
19
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.400
I was expecting, like, honestly, like a few hundred people. I
20
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:48.560
was like, it's the middle of
the afternoon, nobody's probably even here yet
21
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:53.879
when we drove. When we pulled
up, it looked ugly. I mean
22
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:57.120
literally, we showed up. What
time we go on two fifteen? We
23
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:00.000
showed up at like one, and
we walked out to that stage and there
24
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:07.280
was nobody there. It was an
empty field. There was maybe i'd say
25
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.759
twenty thirty people watching the people that
were on the stage at the time.
26
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:14.560
And I was like, Okay,
this is gonna be embarrassing. This is
27
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.599
gonna be like the smallest crowd ever
at any festival. But I can handle
28
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:20.639
it. You know, it won't
be the first time I've had to eat
29
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.800
some humble pie. I can handle
it. I'm like whatever. So I
30
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.599
go in my you know, bus, I start getting ready and then people
31
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:29.280
are like, oh, there's a
lot of people coming. There's a lot
32
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:30.840
of people. Go I was like, yeah, okay, maybe there'll be
33
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:32.439
a few hundred. All right,
we'll be good. And then I walk
34
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:37.120
out there and they were like,
this is the most people we've had on
35
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.680
the side of the stage all weekend, and this is the most people ever
36
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:47.479
to fill up an afternoon side show. And I'm like, really, I
37
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:52.120
am surprised time of day because like
you said, like time of day,
38
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:55.120
it's like people were out party and
probably last Yeah. Yeah, I'm not
39
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:59.120
ready to How did they get there
so fast? I mean, how's that
40
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:02.000
even possible? How does it go
from like zero to twenty thousand or thirty
41
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:07.159
that? Whatever? That was,
well I was I was honored and humbled
42
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.599
by that, trust me. So
what an experience. And I gotta tell
43
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:15.560
you mad respect for you because I
don't know if her listeners know this,
44
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:22.120
but you hurt your meniscus and you
were out there pocket it anyway. Two
45
00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:25.439
both knees. Both knees are torn. This knee has got two tears.
46
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:31.520
I had injections of steroids in it
right before the tour, injections into my
47
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:36.080
back because I've got four slip discs. I mean, I don't know.
48
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:40.240
I guess what I do is kind
of like extreme sports. People don't realize
49
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:44.919
it, but I don't know many
guys. I don't want to say my
50
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:49.159
age because at twenty two I shouldn't
really be complaining. But you know,
51
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:52.520
at twenty two, I don't know
many guys my age that dance as hard
52
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.599
as I do for as long as
I do every night. There's I don't
53
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:58.680
think anyone. I mean, even
if you look at like the boy bands,
54
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:00.520
they do the choography and stuff,
but first of all, they're not
55
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:04.000
the same age as me. They're
all like ten fifteen years younger than me,
56
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:10.080
and they're doing limited choreography. They're
not just getting down and doing these
57
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:13.479
crazy rock songs and stuff. So
yeah, I'm doing both. You know,
58
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:17.160
it's crazy. So well, was
that moment in your life, Larry,
59
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.800
you decide how much you loved music
that you would want to do something
60
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:25.040
like this that ended you here?
Well, not ended you, but brought
61
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:29.639
you here to riot? Always man
always. I mean I played all right,
62
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:32.759
my very The very first live performance
I did was a festival crowd.
63
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:38.360
The first performance I did ever in
front of an audience happened to be at
64
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:43.759
the Rose Bowl, WHOA for forty
thousand people. That was my first taste
65
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:47.319
of performing. Wow, what feeling. I was twelve years old, thirteen
66
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:53.120
maybe right around stand by me Era
and I had just started like watching Michael
67
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:57.439
Jackson and doing the whole Billie Jean
thing, and so like, I like
68
00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:00.199
got very confident in my dancing,
my style dancing and all that kind of
69
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.439
stuff. And then like I was
like, you know what, people were
70
00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:05.920
like, you know, it's this
big charity event, it's at the Rose
71
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.519
Bowl. We'd love it to come
out and say if you were if you
72
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:13.519
have anything you do, you're welcome
to perform. Do you have like a
73
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:15.639
you know, a single or a
cassette or something you want us to play.
74
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.319
I'm like no. They're like,
okay, well what do you want
75
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:21.319
to do? And I'm like,
well I can. I can pretend to
76
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:25.240
be Michael Jackson and you know,
lip sync Billy Jean. And they're like,
77
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:27.800
perfect, let's do that. So
I was like all right, So
78
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.040
I got up and I did it, and there was forty thousand people cheering
79
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:32.480
and freaking out, and I was
like, there's something to this. Nice.
80
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:36.040
I can do this, But I
think I'm gonna need to come up
81
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:40.600
with my own material because I really
shouldn't be the guy that's going around lip
82
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:44.319
syncing other people's material, you know
what I mean, actually come up with
83
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.879
my own stuff. So that was
what really inspired me to start writing and
84
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:51.759
producing my own music and creating material
that I could tour with it. Kind
85
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:57.319
of you remind me of a friend
of mine that you probably know from the
86
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:03.160
Pretty Reckless Tailor and tell her momson
she would she started acting and stuff,
87
00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:06.399
but she's really a rock and roller. Okay, cool, you know,
88
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:14.040
so she chose rock and roll right. People chose acting for her right,
89
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:16.439
and she chose rock and roll exactly
like I was. Like, I mean,
90
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:18.759
I started singing, you know when
I was three years old. I
91
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:23.160
would sing to get my auditions as
a kid. You know, That's how
92
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:27.800
I got my parts is I would
literally just like sing because I couldn't memorize.
93
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:30.120
You know, a lot. You
can't read lines when you're three years
94
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.199
old, Like there's no way to
read a line right or memorize a script.
95
00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:38.160
So you have to prove that you
can handle shit or whatever. So
96
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:41.240
what do they do. They go
and they have you like sing a song
97
00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:45.199
to like show that you can memorize
and that you can like be cute and
98
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:48.160
whatever. So my mom would stick
me in a room with a record player
99
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:51.079
and she'ld have me memorize songs and
so what I do is I'd come out
100
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:54.959
and I'd sing songs for auditions,
and that's how i'd get my parts.
101
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:58.519
Nice, Yeah, and that was
what started it. So the bottom line
102
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:01.319
is I was singing before I was. You made me think of being in
103
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:05.639
Hebrew school and memorizing Hebrew but not
having any clue what I was saying,
104
00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:14.079
but memorizing all the prayers but all
that. Hi, Yeah, I got
105
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:17.560
you man, right, you know
what I'm saying totally. So you're also
106
00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:25.560
into charitable stuff that's really really important. Let's talk about that a little bit.
107
00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:30.120
Okay, So what's your what's your
passion charity wise? What's your passion
108
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:35.759
for helping people and helping kids?
Well, I always do, like basically
109
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:40.800
everything that I can. I lend
my voice wherever I can to those who
110
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:44.920
don't have one. So, whether
that's the environment, whether it's children,
111
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:47.399
whether it's animals. You know,
I've been a vegetarian since I was twelve
112
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.839
years old. Nice, I've been
you know, doing animal rights work.
113
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:58.079
I've helped change laws in several states
for animal rights. I've helped change laws
114
00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:05.040
for children to protect you know,
victims of abuse, changing statutes of limitations.
115
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:07.959
So I mean, obviously I'm not
doing any of it on my own
116
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:11.959
single handedly, but I'm nobody can
you know, a team of people that
117
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.040
I work with. But for example, I'm an ambassador a Child USA where
118
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.079
I help to you know, change
statutes and stuff like that. So,
119
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:22.680
you know, whatever I can do
to make a difference in the world,
120
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:26.360
make it a better place through advocacy
and work, you know, getting on
121
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:28.240
the on the ground and getting on
the floor and doing it. Like you
122
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:33.200
know, I've spoken to the floor
and the Senate in Boston and you know,
123
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:39.360
been officially recognized on the Senate floor
in Albany, New York and things
124
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:41.679
like that. So that's nice.
You know, it's nice to actually get
125
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:45.639
your word out there and make a
difference, hopefully, I think. So,
126
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:48.799
I think it's great somebody like you
that you certainly don't have to do
127
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.440
those things, so you choose to
do those things and because you have a
128
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:58.480
voice and because people know you,
you can make a difference and not everybody
129
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.799
in the industry does that. So
my hats off that you thank you.
130
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:03.799
Well. You know, look,
I unfortunately had to endure a lot of
131
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:07.840
pain and suffering as a child,
and uh, you know, I do
132
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.919
what I can to try and prevent
others from having to go down those same
133
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:16.679
roads and have those same experience.
Do you think there's been change? Do
134
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.000
you think it's better now than when
you were a kid? No, that's
135
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:22.960
unfortunate, not at all. That's
unfortunate, But I'm glad you're Unfortunately,
136
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:28.600
they don't they don't take it seriously, you know. I mean, there's
137
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:31.600
very simple rules that can be changed
within the unions that can protect children,
138
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:35.039
and they just simply won't do it. Or and I tried to do it,
139
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:37.679
they gasolate me and threw me under
the bus and try to act like
140
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:41.159
I was the bad guy. And
it's just, you know, unfortunate,
141
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:43.159
but that's that's the way the game
is played. Yeah. Well, I
142
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:48.879
think you're a good guy because I
don't care what they think you experienced things.
143
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.279
You shared your experiences for that alone
makes you a good guy, because
144
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:56.679
not everybody shares their experiences, you
know. No, they just try to
145
00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:01.080
twist my character and you know,
spread lot and rumors into fami and gaslight.
146
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:07.799
But that's what they do to every
whistleblower, to every survivor. They
147
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:09.879
don't want you to they don't want
you to win because they're worried about the
148
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.879
big deal pocketbook, that's what they
really care about, instead of caring about
149
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:18.639
the safety and the sanctity of our
children, which should be the most important
150
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:22.279
thing in the world. So I
gotta tell you something too. Yesterday I
151
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:26.879
called the person I have multiple radio
studios. I called the person that runs
152
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:31.200
my Louisiana studio because I know for
eleven years her working with me. She's
153
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:35.600
like your number one fan. So
I called her up. I'm like,
154
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.679
yeah, you're not gonna like me
too much because she's on the air too,
155
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:45.279
and I'm like, yeah, I'm
interviewing somebody you would want interview tomorrow.
156
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:48.960
So I busted her chops her,
I send my love. Well,
157
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:54.240
there you go. She'll love that. There you go. There anything that's
158
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.360
right? Is there any other message
you want put out there in the world
159
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.480
that because I want everybody to come
to see our tour while we're out here
160
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:05.799
and maybe the last time I ever
do a solo tour like this where I'm
161
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:09.799
you know, doing all the dance
moves and the costume changes and all this
162
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:13.399
stuff. It's it's a big production, a big show in small venues,
163
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.960
and you can't get that anywhere else. So you know, unlike the thirty

178
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:16.799
everybody about your new surprise single that
came out recent Exceptive Debra. Yes,
179
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:22.600
we played that here at riot Fest, all right, And what meaning does
180
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:24.440
that song have to you? Oh? You know, it's just about those
181
00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:30.759
lying, filthy you know ex's.
I will just say that I have a
182
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:33.639
couple of them myself, so I
hear what you're saying. Not it's not
183
00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:37.639
about my current wife. If a
lot of people think that's what it is,
184
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.600
but it's really not. It's she
was in fact in the studio with
185
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:46.600
me while I was creating it.
So well, there you go. Well,
186
00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:52.559
I am so happy you're here at
riot Fest. I am totally like
187
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:58.000
impressed with you, regardless of the
backlash, regardless of the gas line that
188
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:03.200
you keep speaking up or people that
need somebody like you to speak for them
189
00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:07.039
and being true and real to who
you are and what you've been through.
190
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:11.399
It takes a lot of guts you
certainly don't have to and for that,
191
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:16.759
I think you're the best one right
