Every year about this time there's a quick burst of blossom, a promise of renewal and that first pitch of the national pastime. I don't know about you but it's my favorite time of year, a time when winter's cold is shut down and we've got that Spring Fever. This week's show will take time out for a couple sets celebrating and remembering baseball's past through music with the likes of The Treniers, Danny Kaye, and Dr. John with some early rapping from Mel Allen of all people. And that's just the half of it because the fever goes beyond the diamond: we'll share songs of April love with Shirley Jones, Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White with Perez Prado, Nina Simone, Martha Tilton, and a run of classic country with Johnny Horton, Sons of the Pioneers and the Sons of the San Joaquin. From stickball to kite-flying to the first frisbees of the year in the local park. Let's get away from it all.
We're revisiting a show from 2019 and it just happens to be our first show in the new Santa Rosa studios. It is one that celebrates that Old Chisholm Trail and other prairie passages that resemble all things that follow those romantic icons whose life on the range was less than what their songs usually embellish. In the western sunsets where John Lomax first went out in search of the ‘cowboy song', we'll explore more enlightened performances from the silver screen to the deep folk traditions that have become so laminated with romance that it's hard to see the images beneath. This week's show will take us from Carl T. Sprague, the original cowboy crooner, to Johnny Horton, Fess Parker, Rex Allen, and Roy Rogers. The music is sometimes sappy (Rick Nelson's My Rifle, My Pony, and Me), sometimes light (Roy Rogers' My Chickashay Girl), and other times full of storytelling and history. So many performances to light up the evening sky…just before dusk…just before that ceiling of stars appears in the night sky.

(Railway of the Dead) *** Sometimes they are kind towards humans, even assisting them if in distress, or giving gifts. But some consider them lustful and evil, and still others claim they are the risen dead of brutally killed women. And there are reports of them being seen even today. We'll look at the history and lore of mermaids. (Mythical Mermaids) *** For years, Country singer Johnny Horton told friends of a premonition he couldn't shake. A premonition of his own death. Not just THAT he would be killed… but HOW. And he was eerily accurate. And that wasn't the end of his tragic story. (The Last Ride of Johnny Horton) *** Camping can be an amazing experience, especially when with friends or family. But even surrounded by those you love, when it gets dark, the wilderness gets creepy. Was that just an animal in the woods you heard, or something more? Was that blur you just saw a trick of the light or is there really something circling your campsite? I'll share some true stories of campers who experienced much more than what they bargained for.

"Es el secreto mejor guardado de la música estadounidense", dijo su gran admirador Jack White, "fue mi gran influencia para montar The White Stripes".Dexter Romweber falleció el pasado 16 de febrero a los 57 años de edad. Fundador de los Flat Duo Jets en 1983, duo de rock’n’roll cavernario con el que se mantuvo hasta el nuevo siglo, cuando, también en formato de dúo, fue ampliando su registro abarcando todos los estilos de raíces y el cancionero de la música popular estadounidense, saltando del rockabilly primitivo a la balada de crooner y pasando por el surf, el swing o el rhythm’n’blues más intimista.En 2023 Dex Romweber rompió un silencio discográfico de siete años con su disco “Good thing going’” (Propeller Sound Recordings), el cual se ha convertido en el último álbum de este rebelde del rock’n’roll. A modo de homenaje sobrevolamos ese disco de principio a fin, centrándonos en las variopintas versiones que siempre incluía en sus obras y que Dexter hacía completamente suyas.Playlist;(sintonía) DEX ROMWEBER “Andrieux boogie” (Good thing goin’, 2023)DEX ROMWEBER “Going down” (Good thing goin’, 2023)DEX ROMWEBER “Good thing goin’” (Good thing goin’, 2023)ENGELBERT HUMPERDINCK “Good thing goin’” (1969)DEX ROMWEBER “If you love me” (Good thing goin’, 2023)EDITH PIAF “Hhymne a l’amour” (1950)DEX ROMWEBER “Coming home” (Good thing goin’, 2023)JOHNNY HORTON “Coming home” (1956)DEX ROMWEBER “For all we know” (Good thing goin’, 2023)HAL KEMP and HIS ORCHESTRA “For all we know” (1934)DEX ROMWEBER “Shape of things to come” (Good thing goin’, 2023)DEX ROMWEBER “Twine time” (Good thing goin’, 2023)ALVIN CASH and THE CRAWLERS “Twine time” (1964)DEX ROMWEBER “Tell Laura I love her” (Good thing goin’, 2023)RAY PETERSON “Tell Laura I love her” (1960)BERT KAEMPFERT “I found my love” (1974)DEX ROMWEBER “I found my love” (Good thing goin’, 2023)Escuchar audio
Popular culture in 1959 was marked by a dynamic mix of artistic and societal shifts. The music scene was dominated by the rise of rock and roll shaping the sound of the era. It found itself rising above the simple adult contemporary and country sounds of the day. Iconic films such as “Some Like It Hot” and “Ben-Hur” showcased a diverse range of storytelling and cinematic styles and cultural narratives found a place in television, with shows like “The Twilight Zone” captivating audiences with thought-provoking and imaginative storytelling. The boomers were reaching their teen years, the space race was launched and a torch was about to be passed in Washington. Our show today spins the top tracks from each of the pop, country, R&B and rock charts reflecting a year of cultural transition, encapsulating the tension between traditional values and the evolving influences of a changing world. Everyone from Johnny Horton and Marty Robbins to Lloyd Price, The Fleetwoods, and Bobby Darin…all in one two hour show on KOWS Community Radio.

(Railway of the Dead) *** Sometimes they are kind towards humans, even assisting them if in distress, or giving gifts. But some consider them lustful and evil, and still others claim they are the risen dead of brutally killed women. And there are reports of them being seen even today. We'll look at the history and lore of mermaids. (Mythical Mermaids) *** For years, Country singer Johnny Horton told friends of a premonition he couldn't shake. A premonition of his own death. Not just THAT he would be killed… but HOW. And he was eerily accurate. And that wasn't the end of his tragic story. (The Last Ride of Johnny Horton) *** Camping can be an amazing experience, especially when with friends or family. But even surrounded by those you love, when it gets dark, the wilderness gets creepy. Was that just an animal in the woods you heard, or something more? Was that blur you just saw a trick of the light or is there really something circling your campsite? I'll share some true stories of campers who experienced much more than what they bargained for.

The album's first single, a cover of Johnny Horton's "Honky Tonk Man," was a clear message that this was a roots-influenced album, yet the energy and production made it also contemporary. Producer/Guitarist Pete Anderson took Dwight's tunes and added a modern take on the Bakersfield sound, that was the perfect nod to the past, but without becoming a pastiche of California Country styles of the 1960s. Although Yoakam had 21 great original tunes in the bag, he and Pete agreed to mix 7 of the backlog of original tunes, along with 3 revved-up covers to fill out the album. This winning formula would also serve as the template for his next two releases, Hillbilly Deluxe, and Buenas Noches from a Lonely Room. Besides a history of the album, we will also look at some of Pete's parts, and the gear he used for the album.Gear used:2023 Headstrong Lil' King with 12" Eminence GA-SC64 speakerhttps://headstrongamps.com/lil-king-amp1953 Telecaster built by my old college buddy, B.

Dwight Yoakam's influences are readily apparent in this early neotraditionalist cover of Johnny Horton's "Honky Tonk Man". Hank, Cash, Elvis, and of course Buck Owens are all in there, but what thematic material has Yoakam also imported from the mid-20th century?
For multiple Grammy, CMA, ACM Award-winning producer Keith Stegall, music has always been his life, strongly influenced by his dad, 1950s Abbott Records recording artist, Bob Stegall. The elder Stegall also played steel guitar for the legendary country singer Johnny Horton. Born in the central Texas town of Wichita Falls and raised in Shreveport (the home of the Louisiana Hayride, a stage his father often graced) the Stegalls were constantly playing and writing songs on guitars and the piano. It was by chance he met another famous Texan, Kris Kristofferson, who inspired Keith to move to Music City. “Show me what you've got!” Kris told Keith backstage at a Kristofferson show. Keith played a couple songs, which prompted Kristofferson to remark, “Son, you need to get your ass to Nashville and hang out with other writers. They will break you down and make you the best you can be.” Keith took the advice to heart and three months after his arrival in 1978, Keith co-wrote his first hit, Dr. Hooks' 1980 smash Sexy Eyes. Soon after, Helen Reddy, The Commodores, Johnny Mathis, and many others rushed to record Keith's songs. Most notable was Al Jarreau's career hit We're In This Love Together. Eventually Keith signed a record deal with Capitol Records and later Epic Records. He released a pair of albums in the early 1980s with minor chart success. “Because I grew up in the studio,” Keith recalls, “the mistake I made was that they told me to produce myself.” The upside, he says, was he learned how to produce other artists by producing himself. In the midst of trying to get his own artist career off the ground, a struggling nightclub singer named Randy Ray asked Keith to produce an independent album to sell at his local gigs. The project led to Keith producing the standout songs On The Other Hand and Reasons I Cheat on the singer's epochal debut, “Storms of Life,” under the singer's new moniker… Randy Travis.

Introduction and Location DiscussionTrack 3:[0:55] Where do they live? Where do you guys live at? Track 1:[0:58] We're in the Brantford area, pretty much all of us. Yeah, it's like 100 kilometers west of Toronto. So we're about that area, yeah. Yeah, pretty much from where Jamie's from. Yeah. Yeah, I'm just north of Waterford. We're actually just north of Boston, Jamie. Track 2:[1:18] Oh, okay. Track 1:[1:20] East of Boston, sorry, yeah. Where are you from, Jamie? Track 2:[1:24] I grew up in Waterford. Track 1:[1:25] Oh, there you go. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we played the old town hall there a couple times. Track 2:[1:32] Yeah, it's a cool venue, right? Track 1:[1:34] Oh, it's a great venue. The stage is beautiful. It's just a really nice place. I mean, I would love to go see a band there, right? Track 2:[1:41] Yeah, I saw Huxley Workman there. Track 1:[1:42] Nice. Yeah. Yeah, and I saw the Sheepdogs there three years ago. Yeah. Oh, wow. It was great, yeah. It was packed with the Sheepdogs. Track 3:[1:51] How'd you guys all meet? I was gonna say- Oh, go ahead, JD. Track 2:[1:54] No, no, man. No, no, no. Have you met Tim and Pete? Track 1:[1:59] Yes. Track 2:[1:59] Yeah. Okay, so I was late.

Track 3:[2:12] Trust me, there's a lot of nice, there's a lot nicer places in Spain to stay than my house. Track 4:[2:19] Venga aqui, si. Bienvenidos. Track 1:[2:23] Yeah, as far as how we met, it varies. Ron and I played in a band previously. It's the first time I've been a singer in the band. I've always been a drummer. I sang songs from the drums, but came up front. So Ron and I were in a band previously. Steve is a friend of Ron's. Yeah, I've known Ron probably close to 20 years now. I joined a band and he was the other guitar player he joined it to, and we hit it off pretty good. And then we ended up quitting that band. Turned out we were also living quite close. We were practically neighbors and didn't realize it. Oh yeah. How Band Members Met and Their History[3:01] Okay. And as far as Ike, Ike's brother of Trisha used to be a singer in another band I was in, so. Ike and I have known each other for, 10 years at least. Not longer, yeah. And Illyrio was in a band with some buddies of mine as the drummer, so that's how Leroy and I know each other. And we actually played soccer together like 15 years ago. Yeah. We've played soccer together for a long time, too, so. Track 3:[3:38] Did we lose, did you guys lose me or did I lose you? Track 1:[3:42] I lost you for a minute there, Pete, but you're back. Track 3:[3:45] Okay, well, at least the question got answered about Ike and his brother. Hopefully it was cool. Sorry. Can I ask one more question? Oh, Tim, go ahead. Track 4:[3:57] I just got. I was just gonna ask who out of the five of you has seen The Hip play the most times, had seen them play the most times? Track 1:[4:06] I've actually never seen them play. Track 4:[4:10] Oh, okay, you're part of our club. Track 1:[4:14] Me neither, fun fact, my daughter, she actually saw them in 2017 in a school event, And I've never got to see them. Track 4:[4:22] Oh, wow. Track 1:[4:26] Okay. that. It's probably me then. I've probably seen them 12, 15 times over the years. Yeah, I saw them on the last tour, neat little stories, the guy went to high school, when I had, the first time I saw them was a roadside attraction in Kiyoka at the Speedway, yeah samething, yeah, JD was probably, I think Oliver Waterford was there because it was so close. But a buddy of mine, well, JD, you know, Bill Ella, right? Track 2:[5:03] Yeah, yeah. Track 1:[5:03] So Bill and Bill and I went to our first hip concert together. And then when my fiance and I got tickets for the last tour, we got four tickets and I called him up said, Hey, man, we got to see the last one together too. So he jumped right on it. So himand his wife joined us. It was great. Track 2:[5:21] It's pretty special. What venue do you go to? Track 1:[5:24] We saw them at ACC. Track 2:[5:27] Oh wow, nice. Yeah, in Toronto. Yeah. Oh, man. Track 1:[5:31] Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it wasn't a dry eye in the place. It was pretty special, man. Yeah. Track 3:[5:41] Do you guys, and I ask this strictly, this is not like, you know, any remotely thing, judgmental, it's just a curious thing as far as musicians, but because I have a friend that wasplaying, he played a while in a tribute band for Floyd and then also one for Oasis, and he likes Floyd a lot, but he was like not an Oasis fan, but he played in it because, you know, Gigs agig. It's fun and it's cool. But like do you I would imagine that all of you guys genuinely like the tragic We have at least to some degree. Track 1:[6:16] Oh, yeah, or if not dig the shit out of them Yeah, and it's a riot to play it is so much fun to play the music it's lots of energy and I have an absolute riot playing it It looks like it fromthe videos i've seen I didn't know that many songs until I joined this band. I only knew a couple, like New Orleans is Sinking or probably Little Bones, but then these guys got me into them. Now that's all I hear. Oh, wow. So I love them so much and that's all I hear. it now. And I used to play like a really like you name it from from Metallica down to Bird Jam to Foo Fighters and now my favorite is Tragically Here. So yeah it's uh it's interesting when we play a show that uh, the fun part for me is not only playing the show and the people are into it like everybody you know that everybody's coming tosee the show knows the songs see they're going going to be singing. But after the show, the number of people that come up and want to tell you about the time they saw the hip or they have a story about when they met one of the members of the hip. So people just reconnect at our shows, which is a fun part for me. Track 4:[7:37] Sure, that's amazing. Track 2:[7:38] Yeah, it's like a community, right? Track 1:[7:40] Oh, absolutely, yeah. Track 3:[7:43] Yeah, and I mean, I gotta say, I've seen, obviously, not anything hip related, but like, for example, I remember seeing a Zeppelin tribute band that was really good, that I just kind oflike, I mean, I'm a diehard Zeppelin fan, like, you know, all eight studio records just flow through my veins and seeing that show was like, you know, I was like, OK, it's cool. And then Iwas just so wildly impressed. Like, I'm not the guy because I play, you know, you play, you play a gig, kind of like put your guitar, put your instruments away, go to the bar, have a beer, check out for the night,especially if it's a long show and you're tired. But like I was like, I got to go tell these people how fucking great they sounded and And how during this tune, the communication breakdown, he hit the solo perfect. That's so cool that you have people that... Because it's a testament to you guys being fucking really good at your craft and knowing how to play to the crowd. I can't wait to see you guys. Track 1:[8:56] Thank you, Lola. Yeah, we have a blast. The Complexity of Learning Songs on Instruments[9:00] Yeah, so these guys always mention, you know, when we're learning a song, they've got a a lot harder than I do, but a lot of folks who either don't play instruments or folks whoaren't hip fans that are playing instruments say, oh yeah, those songs are easy. But I'm sure these guys can tell you that they're not easy. There's all kinds of stuff going on. No way. Yeah, you've gotta really hit it to get the nuance of the song and the notes, but I don't know if you guys have examples, but. Two guitar parts are so very complementary to each other. There's really no rhythm or lead. There's just two guitars. And without one, the other just doesn't sound right. You have to have those two parts like the record, and then it gives you that sound. Yeah. So we're very picky about the sound. We use the right instruments. We try and use the right equipment wherever we can and re-crease that sound, like the record, as close as we can, right? Track 3:[10:05] Yep. The general rule with music, too, is if it sounds really hard, chances are it's not, and if it sounds really easy, chances are it's not, right? Track 1:[10:16] Isn't that the case? That is right. As I was saying, I used to play what I thought they were the hardest song to play, like the Foo Fighters, to name a few. But then I thought, okay, this doesn't sound difficult. man, I was wrong. It is difficult, it is, because it's just, we need to connect, like, you know, we need to be in sync to actually make it sound right, which is very interesting, and I love doing that. And theseguys are awesome. Yeah for that band, that's it Yeah, we're very lucky that everybody has the same ambition to make it sound like that. You know when everybody's in the groove it the music becomes a Uh part of the vocals everything. Yeah, it's one. It's a rare commodity Yeah, yes And we're lucky to look it lucky to have a guy that's on ligar like it's just It's just amazing. The Importance of Syncing and Connecting as a Band[11:07] Sometimes it's just man. It's just something great. It's I mean musically we are there and we have a good rhythm and we you know, we understand each other But what make a sound right is this guy here, right? This is something greatHopefully you'd like it, too I'm sure we will. [11:26] We won't even talk about bass because Based on some of the bass runs and and stuff is pretty crazy to me. Yeah, it's tough. [11:37] I think he was a guitar player actually, so he actually learned to play the bass as we came along. Yeah, I didn't even know the bass, so these guys called me, so I went to the music store and bought a bass and showed up and then started. It's been pretty good. Lots to learn. It's been a lot of fun, but I think it's just having five individuals, like being in a band like this is amazing because it's tough. I've played with lots of different musicians, but to have people that connect very tight like this, that is very, very hard to find. And playing bass in this band has probably been the best band I've ever been in. I've always played guitar, but playing the bass and getting that part and playing with these guys is actuallyamazing. So it's been pretty good, pretty good run so far. [12:33] That's cool, man. And a second instrument is always awesome anyway. You can't go wrong learning. I learned, oh, maybe 20 years ago, I picked up the fiddle and started playing fiddle. Oh, I became a fiddle player for about eight years. And then I got back into guitar and then that stopped. And then maybe about four years ago, I bought a banjo and oh my goodness, I was two years of banjo, banjo, banjo. And you learn, you pick up something from everything I've learned. I've picked up something that adds to the guitar tons. Totally, totally, totally. Appreciating the Skill of Great MusiciansTrack 3:[13:10] When we listen to, well, cause we interviewed Gord Sinclair, it was about a month and a half ago, something like that, maybe two months ago. And I had done this before, but I did it more so after we interviewed him. If you watch like a video that they're, a live video that they're playing, right? And watch it five times. Watch it five times. And each five times, once you focus on Johnny Fay, another time you focus on Gord Downie, another time you focus on Rob Baker, youknow, and so on and so forth. And you can just, if you just focus on them and their instrument, you realize how fucking, excuse my language, I'm dropping a lot of F-bombs, but how well they are at playing theirinstruments. Instruments, what good musicians they are. And to sound even remotely remotely close to them is not an easy task. It's not even close. Track 1:[14:09] Yeah, and as they've, you know, grown over the years, they've just gotten better, right? You just get better at your craft. So when you go and learn the newer albums or songs offthose it's even tougher. Track 3:[14:22] Yeah, I bet. Track 1:[14:23] But it's even more rewarding when we get together and sometimes, you know, we play the tune for the very first time and go, okay, we're going to learn this tune, we go away anddo our parts, we come back and we play it and we're all kind of blown away at how good it sounds sometimes the first time. You learn that part and they melt together so beautifully for that finished product that it's really rewarding. Mind-Blowing Live Transitions in MusicTrack 4:[14:53] Yeah, we were just listening. Yeah, we were just the guys and I were just listening to a live version of New Orleans is sinking where they transition in and out of nautical disasterand back into New Orleans is sinking. Have you guys tried anything like that as a band together? Because that that I mean, that just blew our minds, you know? Track 1:[15:12] Yeah, that's an interesting combination, isn't it? Yeah, we, uh, we do have a killer whale tank version on the, on the schedule eventually to, uh, to learn, uh, but, uh, yeah, we haven'tgot around to it. Uh, that's a big one. Shit. But yeah, yeah, I guess our focus has been so far just to try to, you know, owner what they recorded, so keep it as close as, as you know, the original And that's how I've been a focus sofar, you know. [15:46] It may migrate to, you know, do experiments, something like that. But so far, we're trying to actually, you know, honor that original record, original sound. And, you know, but sort of in a live version. So, yeah, as Ron was saying, it's so rewarding when you, you know, work hard on getting that song together and it, you know, it soundedactually very close, in our opinion, anyway. Yeah, we really try to bring the music and the live show to the stage, but not be the Tragical yet. We don't want to look like them or copy them. We want to bring their music to people. So all of the music. That's good. Track 2:[16:26] I like that. Yeah, I like that. Track 1:[16:28] Yeah, we don't want to do exactly. We don't want to just look like them. We want to keep our original, you know, style of playing our instruments, but sounding like them. So, right. Track 2:[16:39] Right. Track 1:[16:40] I think it's a good combination. up in any other so far band that I've seen doing tributes to The Hips. They want to look like them. They sound decent. Track 4:[16:52] That happens, that happens. Track 3:[16:53] I could dress up like Paul McCartney, too. Do you guys find it... I was going to... This is like being something that's puzzling because I haven't seen, obviously I haven't seen you guys play live, but I'm wondering, you know, what your catalog covers and stuff but justlooking at how big the catalog of the hip is like I think you know if you took a band like like I used to Pink Floyd as an example before you know not many you know if you're in a coverband or a tribute band you're gonna you're gonna cover you know the wall you're gonna cover maybe a few things off like Wish You Were Here and Dark Sudden Moon You're not goingto do, yeah, I'm a goma. Track 2:[17:39] Yeah, no, probably not. Track 3:[17:40] No offense to Syd Barrett, but I think with a band like the hip or like Zeppelin, for example, the sound changes so much. Like like like little bones to fucking Tiger. The lion is like, yeah, it's like it's like the distance from Earth to Pluto instead of like Earth to Mars. It's like... How do you do that on stage? How do you like Go, okay. We're We're going into now for plan a or whatever. Track 1:[18:16] I personally You know I'm singing. I'm just trying to bring that same sound And each song I just look at it differently each songs its own person, right? So I don't in my mind. I don't put them together on albums each one has its own personality. So that's kind of how I think about it. Like we go from Highway Girl, which is probably our simplest instrumentally. And again, it's the first album, right? So like, I mean, the hip of the hip, but they weren't accomplished musicians like they were now for Plan A, right? So a little easier to play, but Gord was a little more wild with his voice, not as controlled. So you got to kind of bring that out as well. So that's kind of how I view those. Track 3:[19:06] It's a good approach. Yeah. That makes sense. It makes sense. Listening to the records like we have from start to finish, which I don't know if you guys listen to the podcast. I hope not. Yeah. Track 1:[19:16] Of course. Of course we do. Nice. Track 4:[19:19] That's great. Track 1:[19:21] Why don't you... Track 2:[19:23] What do you say you give us a little taste of what you guys do and perform a couple songs? Track 1:[19:28] That'd be awesome. Influences: Foo Fighters, Metallica, Outlaws, Guns N' RosesTrack 4:[28:01] What other influences have you guys had? I know you know one of you mentioned like Foo Fighters and Metallica and stuff. What else are you guys into? What were you into maybe when you know the hip was just going nuts in the 90s? What else were you guys listening to? Track 1:[28:18] I was a big Outlaws fan. I played a lot of the Outlaws. Just kind of like ladder skaters and stuff. Cool. I was a Guns N' Roses guy. Track 4:[28:28] All right, right on. Track 1:[28:31] I didn't know that. It's interesting. Sweet child of mine was the first song I ever heard. Rush, I liked playing Rush stuff too. Track 4:[28:41] Excellent. Track 1:[28:45] I like all types of music but I like real heavy and better. Pantera, like loud, just as a favorite. Sure. Track 4:[28:53] Nice. Track 1:[28:55] Yeah, I was the weird of my generation because, you know, back in Venezuela, whoever plays or like rocks, he wasn't in the, you know, he was not usual. So, but I like, you know, I started playing Sepultura, Pantera, Metallica. That's how I started playing. It wasn't sounding good, but that's, you know, but then with the years, when I learned a bit I actually got, you know, Peter from Spain, my favorite band ever,although they're tragically here is Eros del Silencio. That's my favorite band from Spain and that's my biggest influence in rock music. What's the name of it? Eros del Silencio is like Heroes of Silence. Track 3:[29:36] Oh yeah, yeah, totally, yeah. You know what's funny? I can hear a bit. I was told about that band a a number of times. Yeah, I've been I've seen like those fun at those a couple times and I mean they're big in spain There I would call them the closest thing to tragically hip In spain, especially later in theircareer, too but um Yeah, I mean I'm I'm, i'm name dropping now, but I went to the same high school as james james headfield um so metallica ran, quite deep in my Family and hometown.Yeah, sure Yeah, I mean back of it back of the day with the hip was plugging along You weren't you didn't you didn't own appetite for destruction. Track 1:[30:29] Oh Yeah You weren't I learned every song on the record. That was that was me go home sit in my bedroom To learn every tune. Track 3:[30:37] Yeah, you were the guy who thought like you were the guy to like me We also thought like G&R Lies was a great album where everybody was like, yeah, I like Patience, buteverything else fucking take it or leave it, man. Track 1:[30:49] No, it was everything. I learned most of that album as well. Track 3:[30:52] Yeah, it was a great album. Track 1:[30:56] As for me, I grew up listening to a lot of different stuff. Influences: Johnny Horton, Jimmy Reeves, The Stones[31:02] Anything from like Johnny Horton and Jimmy Reeves right up to The Stones, right? So a lot of influence, The Stones, probably my second favorite band. I've seen them nine times. Oh, wow. Yeah. Every time they come to Toronto, I think I've seen them since I was able to get in, so. Track 3:[31:18] Cool. I saw The Stones once and I almost didn't see them. My cousin Rocky, God rest his soul, was 24 years old, died of brain cancer. Horrible tragedy. just the day of his funeral, I had tickets to see The Stones at Angel Stadium and I'm like I'm not gonna go. Screw that. I mean, I just like just came back from Rocky'sfuneral. My mom's like. How disappointed would your cousin be to know that you missed the fucking Rolling Stones because of his ass? And I was like, good point. Went and never regretted it. Such a good show. When you guys played Poets, I wrote something down to ask, do you get Gimme Shelter vibes from that song? Like, I would imagine playing that song on guitar. There's a refrain towards the end when it just slows down and just dips into the rhythm where it sounds like the end of Keith Richardssolo I just now that you mentioned it I can see that for sure yeah yeah yeah maybe think of it when you guys are playing it but never I've never heard before when I've heard the song bythe hip then we're going to end up playing that. We're going to transition into the stones. The Band's Ability to Handle Challenges[32:43] And If anybody can, if any band can handle it, it sounds like, you guys can. Track 1:[32:55] I can. backup singing. Track 3:[32:58] She was pregnant. She was pregnant. We should have saying that. Track 2:[33:04] She get out of here. Really? Track 3:[33:05] Yep. Track 1:[33:06] She came down to the studio with like four in the morning in her house coat and curlers. Track 2:[33:11] Jesus Christ. Wow. Come on down. Track 1:[33:12] Yeah. Yeah, cool story. Track 2:[33:20] Well, you guys sounded terrific. I'll tell you that. So I can't I can't wait to hear you, you know, when you're unleashed, fully unleashed and we're not listening to you over video. Track 1:[33:32] Yeah. We're working on a surprise for you, so keep doing it. Oh, wow. Yeah. And don't expect any dance moves like Gord for me, because drummers can't dance, so I just, what happens, happens up there. I can do salsa with my merengue. Oh, salsa. There you go. Be for yourself. It's all about closing your eyes and listening to the music. Yeah. We don't look like it. He's trying to sound like it. Just look at the light show. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Tim's Exciting Donation for Silent AuctionTrack 3:[34:17] Yeah, so I know you guys don't don't dress dress up, you know, dress as such for the hip, but Tim was was keen enough to procure an item for the silent auction that we're having. That is a Tim should I I'm stealing your thunder here, but I'm so I think it's literally the coolest thing. Tim got contacted the woman who made Gord's hats for the final tour. Track 1:[34:46] Sweet. Track 3:[34:47] She is donated a hat for the highest bidder that that, you know, once they win it at the auction, she's going to have them fitted for it and she's going to make a fucking gourd hat.Nice. Track 1:[35:02] It's so cool. Track 3:[35:07] What's that? Track 4:[35:09] Yeah, her company is is Lily put hats. She makes amazing stuff. And I mean, I think these these hats she made for Gord and the likeness of one for the silent auction, it's kind of a it's kind of a priceless item. So we're excited tosee what it does. Track 1:[35:29] That's what I saw. I saw that she had sponsored the show. So I was like, oh, that's interesting. I wonder what she could be sponsoring me. That's awesome. That's yeah. Track 4:[35:42] Yeah, she makes great stuff. Track 3:[35:43] I'm so stoked to see you guys at the show.

TranscriptIntroductions and greetingsTrack 2:[0:00] So have you guys met each other here? Track 1:[0:03] Yeah, this is Steve. I'm Steve. Track 3:[0:06] I'm Ron. Track 1:[0:07] Ike. Ike plays bass. Alirio, I'm the nice drummer. The nice looking drummer. Yeah, he's got a weird accent. So you may have to ask what you're saying. Yeah, there's a couple accents there. Latino accent. I might switch to Spanish. Track 2:[0:26] Yeah. Track 1:[0:28] In Spain, I already speak Spanish. Track 3:[0:30] Where are you from? Track 1:[0:32] Originally from Venezuela. Venezuela. Track 3:[0:37] And I heard another accent there, too. Track 1:[0:43] No, just one. The invi... Oh, different Canadian, oh, maybe, maybe, uh... Maybe like Newfie accent. Newfie accent, yeah, yeah. Canadian, but... I don't think so. Introduction and Location DiscussionTrack 3:[0:55] Where do they live? Where do you guys live at? Track 1:[0:58] We're in the Brantford area, pretty much all of us. Yeah, it's like 100 kilometers west of Toronto. So we're about that area, yeah. Yeah, pretty much from where Jamie's from. Yeah. Yeah, I'm just north of Waterford. We're actually just north of Boston, Jamie. Track 2:[1:18] Oh, okay. Track 1:[1:20] East of Boston, sorry, yeah. Where are you from, Jamie? Track 2:[1:24] I grew up in Waterford. Track 1:[1:25] Oh, there you go. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we played the old town hall there a couple times. Track 2:[1:32] Yeah, it's a cool venue, right? Track 1:[1:34] Oh, it's a great venue. The stage is beautiful. It's just a really nice place. I mean, I would love to go see a band there, right? Track 2:[1:41] Yeah, I saw Huxley Workman there. Track 1:[1:42] Nice. Yeah. Yeah, and I saw the Sheepdogs there three years ago. Yeah. Oh, wow. It was great, yeah. It was packed with the Sheepdogs. Track 3:[1:51] How'd you guys all meet? I was gonna say- Oh, go ahead, JD. Track 2:[1:54] No, no, man. No, no, no. Have you met Tim and Pete? Track 1:[1:59] Yes. Track 2:[1:59] Yeah. Okay, so I was late. Track 1:[2:02] So see, that's, you know, it's all I know is, all I know is I have where to stay in Spain and Oregon. Track 4:[2:08] Si, si, si. Track 3:[2:12] Trust me, there's a lot of nice, there's a lot nicer places in Spain to stay than my house. Track 4:[2:19] Venga aqui, si. Bienvenidos. Track 1:[2:23] Yeah, as far as how we met, it varies. Ron and I played in a band previously. It's the first time I've been a singer in the band. I've always been a drummer. I sang songs from the drums, but came up front. So Ron and I were in a band previously. Steve is a friend of Ron's. Yeah, I've known Ron probably close to 20 years now. I joined a band and he was the other guitar player he joined it to, and we hit it off pretty good. And then we ended up quitting that band. Turned out we were also living quite close. We were practically neighbors and didn't realize it. Oh yeah. How Band Members Met and Their History[3:01] Okay. And as far as Ike, Ike's brother of Trisha used to be a singer in another band I was in, so. Ike and I have known each other for, 10 years at least. Not longer, yeah. And Illyrio was in a band with some buddies of mine as the drummer, so that's how Leroy and I know each other. And we actually played soccer together like 15 years ago. Yeah. We've played soccer together for a long time, too, so. Track 3:[3:38] Did we lose, did you guys lose me or did I lose you? Track 1:[3:42] I lost you for a minute there, Pete, but you're back. Track 3:[3:45] Okay, well, at least the question got answered about Ike and his brother. Hopefully it was cool. Sorry. Can I ask one more question? Oh, Tim, go ahead. Track 4:[3:57] I just got. I was just gonna ask who out of the five of you has seen The Hip play the most times, had seen them play the most times? Track 1:[4:06] I've actually never seen them play. Track 4:[4:10] Oh, okay, you're part of our club. Track 1:[4:14] Me neither, fun fact, my daughter, she actually saw them in 2017 in a school event, And I've never got to see them. Track 4:[4:22] Oh, wow. Track 1:[4:26] Okay. that. It's probably me then. I've probably seen them 12, 15 times over the years. Yeah, I saw them on the last tour, neat little stories, the guy went to high school, when I had, the first time I saw them was a roadside attraction in Kiyoka at the Speedway, yeah samething, yeah, JD was probably, I think Oliver Waterford was there because it was so close. But a buddy of mine, well, JD, you know, Bill Ella, right? Track 2:[5:03] Yeah, yeah. Track 1:[5:03] So Bill and Bill and I went to our first hip concert together. And then when my fiance and I got tickets for the last tour, we got four tickets and I called him up said, Hey, man, we got to see the last one together too. So he jumped right on it. So himand his wife joined us. It was great. Track 2:[5:21] It's pretty special. What venue do you go to? Track 1:[5:24] We saw them at ACC. Track 2:[5:27] Oh wow, nice. Yeah, in Toronto. Yeah. Oh, man. Track 1:[5:31] Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it wasn't a dry eye in the place. It was pretty special, man. Yeah. Track 3:[5:41] Do you guys, and I ask this strictly, this is not like, you know, any remotely thing, judgmental, it's just a curious thing as far as musicians, but because I have a friend that wasplaying, he played a while in a tribute band for Floyd and then also one for Oasis, and he likes Floyd a lot, but he was like not an Oasis fan, but he played in it because, you know, Gigs agig. It's fun and it's cool. But like do you I would imagine that all of you guys genuinely like the tragic We have at least to some degree. Track 1:[6:16] Oh, yeah, or if not dig the shit out of them Yeah, and it's a riot to play it is so much fun to play the music it's lots of energy and I have an absolute riot playing it It looks like it fromthe videos i've seen I didn't know that many songs until I joined this band. I only knew a couple, like New Orleans is Sinking or probably Little Bones, but then these guys got me into them. Now that's all I hear. Oh, wow. So I love them so much and that's all I hear. it now. And I used to play like a really like you name it from from Metallica down to Bird Jam to Foo Fighters and now my favorite is Tragically Here. So yeah it's uh it's interesting when we play a show that uh, the fun part for me is not only playing the show and the people are into it like everybody you know that everybody's coming tosee the show knows the songs see they're going going to be singing. But after the show, the number of people that come up and want to tell you about the time they saw the hip or they have a story about when they met one of the members of the hip. So people just reconnect at our shows, which is a fun part for me. Track 4:[7:37] Sure, that's amazing. Track 2:[7:38] Yeah, it's like a community, right? Track 1:[7:40] Oh, absolutely, yeah. Track 3:[7:43] Yeah, and I mean, I gotta say, I've seen, obviously, not anything hip related, but like, for example, I remember seeing a Zeppelin tribute band that was really good, that I just kind oflike, I mean, I'm a diehard Zeppelin fan, like, you know, all eight studio records just flow through my veins and seeing that show was like, you know, I was like, OK, it's cool. And then Iwas just so wildly impressed. Like, I'm not the guy because I play, you know, you play, you play a gig, kind of like put your guitar, put your instruments away, go to the bar, have a beer, check out for the night,especially if it's a long show and you're tired. But like I was like, I got to go tell these people how fucking great they sounded and And how during this tune, the communication breakdown, he hit the solo perfect. That's so cool that you have people that... Because it's a testament to you guys being fucking really good at your craft and knowing how to play to the crowd. I can't wait to see you guys. Track 1:[8:56] Thank you, Lola. Yeah, we have a blast. The Complexity of Learning Songs on Instruments[9:00] Yeah, so these guys always mention, you know, when we're learning a song, they've got a a lot harder than I do, but a lot of folks who either don't play instruments or folks whoaren't hip fans that are playing instruments say, oh yeah, those songs are easy. But I'm sure these guys can tell you that they're not easy. There's all kinds of stuff going on. No way. Yeah, you've gotta really hit it to get the nuance of the song and the notes, but I don't know if you guys have examples, but. Two guitar parts are so very complementary to each other. There's really no rhythm or lead. There's just two guitars. And without one, the other just doesn't sound right. You have to have those two parts like the record, and then it gives you that sound. Yeah. So we're very picky about the sound. We use the right instruments. We try and use the right equipment wherever we can and re-crease that sound, like the record, as close as we can, right? Track 3:[10:05] Yep. The general rule with music, too, is if it sounds really hard, chances are it's not, and if it sounds really easy, chances are it's not, right? Track 1:[10:16] Isn't that the case? That is right. As I was saying, I used to play what I thought they were the hardest song to play, like the Foo Fighters, to name a few. But then I thought, okay, this doesn't sound difficult. man, I was wrong. It is difficult, it is, because it's just, we need to connect, like, you know, we need to be in sync to actually make it sound right, which is very interesting, and I love doing that. And theseguys are awesome. Yeah for that band, that's it Yeah, we're very lucky that everybody has the same ambition to make it sound like that. You know when everybody's in the groove it the music becomes a Uh part of the vocals everything. Yeah, it's one. It's a rare commodity Yeah, yes And we're lucky to look it lucky to have a guy that's on ligar like it's just It's just amazing. The Importance of Syncing and Connecting as a Band[11:07] Sometimes it's just man. It's just something great. It's I mean musically we are there and we have a good rhythm and we you know, we understand each other But what make a sound right is this guy here, right? This is something greatHopefully you'd like it, too I'm sure we will. [11:26] We won't even talk about bass because Based on some of the bass runs and and stuff is pretty crazy to me. Yeah, it's tough. [11:37] I think he was a guitar player actually, so he actually learned to play the bass as we came along. Yeah, I didn't even know the bass, so these guys called me, so I went to the music store and bought a bass and showed up and then started. It's been pretty good. Lots to learn. It's been a lot of fun, but I think it's just having five individuals, like being in a band like this is amazing because it's tough. I've played with lots of different musicians, but to have people that connect very tight like this, that is very, very hard to find. And playing bass in this band has probably been the best band I've ever been in. I've always played guitar, but playing the bass and getting that part and playing with these guys is actuallyamazing. So it's been pretty good, pretty good run so far. [12:33] That's cool, man. And a second instrument is always awesome anyway. You can't go wrong learning. I learned, oh, maybe 20 years ago, I picked up the fiddle and started playing fiddle. Oh, I became a fiddle player for about eight years. And then I got back into guitar and then that stopped. And then maybe about four years ago, I bought a banjo and oh my goodness, I was two years of banjo, banjo, banjo. And you learn, you pick up something from everything I've learned. I've picked up something that adds to the guitar tons. Totally, totally, totally. Appreciating the Skill of Great MusiciansTrack 3:[13:10] When we listen to, well, cause we interviewed Gord Sinclair, it was about a month and a half ago, something like that, maybe two months ago. And I had done this before, but I did it more so after we interviewed him. If you watch like a video that they're, a live video that they're playing, right? And watch it five times. Watch it five times. And each five times, once you focus on Johnny Fay, another time you focus on Gord Downie, another time you focus on Rob Baker, youknow, and so on and so forth. And you can just, if you just focus on them and their instrument, you realize how fucking, excuse my language, I'm dropping a lot of F-bombs, but how well they are at playing theirinstruments. Instruments, what good musicians they are. And to sound even remotely remotely close to them is not an easy task. It's not even close. Track 1:[14:09] Yeah, and as they've, you know, grown over the years, they've just gotten better, right? You just get better at your craft. So when you go and learn the newer albums or songs offthose it's even tougher. Track 3:[14:22] Yeah, I bet. Track 1:[14:23] But it's even more rewarding when we get together and sometimes, you know, we play the tune for the very first time and go, okay, we're going to learn this tune, we go away anddo our parts, we come back and we play it and we're all kind of blown away at how good it sounds sometimes the first time. You learn that part and they melt together so beautifully for that finished product that it's really rewarding. Mind-Blowing Live Transitions in MusicTrack 4:[14:53] Yeah, we were just listening. Yeah, we were just the guys and I were just listening to a live version of New Orleans is sinking where they transition in and out of nautical disasterand back into New Orleans is sinking. Have you guys tried anything like that as a band together? Because that that I mean, that just blew our minds, you know? Track 1:[15:12] Yeah, that's an interesting combination, isn't it? Yeah, we, uh, we do have a killer whale tank version on the, on the schedule eventually to, uh, to learn, uh, but, uh, yeah, we haven'tgot around to it. Uh, that's a big one. Shit. But yeah, yeah, I guess our focus has been so far just to try to, you know, owner what they recorded, so keep it as close as, as you know, the original And that's how I've been a focus sofar, you know. [15:46] It may migrate to, you know, do experiments, something like that. But so far, we're trying to actually, you know, honor that original record, original sound. And, you know, but sort of in a live version. So, yeah, as Ron was saying, it's so rewarding when you, you know, work hard on getting that song together and it, you know, it soundedactually very close, in our opinion, anyway. Yeah, we really try to bring the music and the live show to the stage, but not be the Tragical yet. We don't want to look like them or copy them. We want to bring their music to people. So all of the music. That's good. Track 2:[16:26] I like that. Yeah, I like that. Track 1:[16:28] Yeah, we don't want to do exactly. We don't want to just look like them. We want to keep our original, you know, style of playing our instruments, but sounding like them. So, right. Track 2:[16:39] Right. Track 1:[16:40] I think it's a good combination. up in any other so far band that I've seen doing tributes to The Hips. They want to look like them. They sound decent. Track 4:[16:52] That happens, that happens. Track 3:[16:53] I could dress up like Paul McCartney, too. Do you guys find it... I was going to... This is like being something that's puzzling because I haven't seen, obviously I haven't seen you guys play live, but I'm wondering, you know, what your catalog covers and stuff but justlooking at how big the catalog of the hip is like I think you know if you took a band like like I used to Pink Floyd as an example before you know not many you know if you're in a coverband or a tribute band you're gonna you're gonna cover you know the wall you're gonna cover maybe a few things off like Wish You Were Here and Dark Sudden Moon You're not goingto do, yeah, I'm a goma. Track 2:[17:39] Yeah, no, probably not. Track 3:[17:40] No offense to Syd Barrett, but I think with a band like the hip or like Zeppelin, for example, the sound changes so much. Like like like little bones to fucking Tiger. The lion is like, yeah, it's like it's like the distance from Earth to Pluto instead of like Earth to Mars. It's like... How do you do that on stage? How do you like Go, okay. We're We're going into now for plan a or whatever. Track 1:[18:16] I personally You know I'm singing. I'm just trying to bring that same sound And each song I just look at it differently each songs its own person, right? So I don't in my mind. I don't put them together on albums each one has its own personality. So that's kind of how I think about it. Like we go from Highway Girl, which is probably our simplest instrumentally. And again, it's the first album, right? So like, I mean, the hip of the hip, but they weren't accomplished musicians like they were now for Plan A, right? So a little easier to play, but Gord was a little more wild with his voice, not as controlled. So you got to kind of bring that out as well. So that's kind of how I view those. Track 3:[19:06] It's a good approach. Yeah. That makes sense. It makes sense. Listening to the records like we have from start to finish, which I don't know if you guys listen to the podcast. I hope not. Yeah. Track 1:[19:16] Of course. Of course we do. Nice. Track 4:[19:19] That's great. Track 1:[19:21] Why don't you... Track 2:[19:23] What do you say you give us a little taste of what you guys do and perform a couple songs? Track 1:[19:28] That'd be awesome. Influences: Foo Fighters, Metallica, Outlaws, Guns N' RosesTrack 4:[28:01] What other influences have you guys had? I know you know one of you mentioned like Foo Fighters and Metallica and stuff. What else are you guys into? What were you into maybe when you know the hip was just going nuts in the 90s? What else were you guys listening to? Track 1:[28:18] I was a big Outlaws fan. I played a lot of the Outlaws. Just kind of like ladder skaters and stuff. Cool. I was a Guns N' Roses guy. Track 4:[28:28] All right, right on. Track 1:[28:31] I didn't know that. It's interesting. Sweet child of mine was the first song I ever heard. Rush, I liked playing Rush stuff too. Track 4:[28:41] Excellent. Track 1:[28:45] I like all types of music but I like real heavy and better. Pantera, like loud, just as a favorite. Sure. Track 4:[28:53] Nice. Track 1:[28:55] Yeah, I was the weird of my generation because, you know, back in Venezuela, whoever plays or like rocks, he wasn't in the, you know, he was not usual. So, but I like, you know, I started playing Sepultura, Pantera, Metallica. That's how I started playing. It wasn't sounding good, but that's, you know, but then with the years, when I learned a bit I actually got, you know, Peter from Spain, my favorite band ever,although they're tragically here is Eros del Silencio. That's my favorite band from Spain and that's my biggest influence in rock music. What's the name of it? Eros del Silencio is like Heroes of Silence. Track 3:[29:36] Oh yeah, yeah, totally, yeah. You know what's funny? I can hear a bit. I was told about that band a a number of times. Yeah, I've been I've seen like those fun at those a couple times and I mean they're big in spain There I would call them the closest thing to tragically hip In spain, especially later in theircareer, too but um Yeah, I mean I'm I'm, i'm name dropping now, but I went to the same high school as james james headfield um so metallica ran, quite deep in my Family and hometown.Yeah, sure Yeah, I mean back of it back of the day with the hip was plugging along You weren't you didn't you didn't own appetite for destruction. Track 1:[30:29] Oh Yeah You weren't I learned every song on the record. That was that was me go home sit in my bedroom To learn every tune. Track 3:[30:37] Yeah, you were the guy who thought like you were the guy to like me We also thought like G&R Lies was a great album where everybody was like, yeah, I like Patience, buteverything else fucking take it or leave it, man. Track 1:[30:49] No, it was everything. I learned most of that album as well. Track 3:[30:52] Yeah, it was a great album. Track 1:[30:56] As for me, I grew up listening to a lot of different stuff. Influences: Johnny Horton, Jimmy Reeves, The Stones[31:02] Anything from like Johnny Horton and Jimmy Reeves right up to The Stones, right? So a lot of influence, The Stones, probably my second favorite band. I've seen them nine times. Oh, wow. Yeah. Every time they come to Toronto, I think I've seen them since I was able to get in, so. Track 3:[31:18] Cool. I saw The Stones once and I almost didn't see them. My cousin Rocky, God rest his soul, was 24 years old, died of brain cancer. Horrible tragedy. just the day of his funeral, I had tickets to see The Stones at Angel Stadium and I'm like I'm not gonna go. Screw that. I mean, I just like just came back from Rocky'sfuneral. My mom's like. How disappointed would your cousin be to know that you missed the fucking Rolling Stones because of his ass? And I was like, good point. Went and never regretted it. Such a good show. When you guys played Poets, I wrote something down to ask, do you get Gimme Shelter vibes from that song? Like, I would imagine playing that song on guitar. There's a refrain towards the end when it just slows down and just dips into the rhythm where it sounds like the end of Keith Richardssolo I just now that you mentioned it I can see that for sure yeah yeah yeah maybe think of it when you guys are playing it but never I've never heard before when I've heard the song bythe hip then we're going to end up playing that. We're going to transition into the stones. The Band's Ability to Handle Challenges[32:43] And If anybody can, if any band can handle it, it sounds like, you guys can. Track 1:[32:55] I can. backup singing. Track 3:[32:58] She was pregnant. She was pregnant. We should have saying that. Track 2:[33:04] She get out of here. Really? Track 3:[33:05] Yep. Track 1:[33:06] She came down to the studio with like four in the morning in her house coat and curlers. Track 2:[33:11] Jesus Christ. Wow. Come on down. Track 1:[33:12] Yeah. Yeah, cool story. Track 2:[33:20] Well, you guys sounded terrific. I'll tell you that. So I can't I can't wait to hear you, you know, when you're unleashed, fully unleashed and we're not listening to you over video. Track 1:[33:32] Yeah. We're working on a surprise for you, so keep doing it. Oh, wow. Yeah. And don't expect any dance moves like Gord for me, because drummers can't dance, so I just, what happens, happens up there. I can do salsa with my merengue. Oh, salsa. There you go. Be for yourself. It's all about closing your eyes and listening to the music. Yeah. We don't look like it. He's trying to sound like it. Just look at the light show. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Tim's Exciting Donation for Silent AuctionTrack 3:[34:17] Yeah, so I know you guys don't don't dress dress up, you know, dress as such for the hip, but Tim was was keen enough to procure an item for the silent auction that we're having. That is a Tim should I I'm stealing your thunder here, but I'm so I think it's literally the coolest thing. Tim got contacted the woman who made Gord's hats for the final tour. Track 1:[34:46] Sweet. Track 3:[34:47] She is donated a hat for the highest bidder that that, you know, once they win it at the auction, she's going to have them fitted for it and she's going to make a fucking gourd hat.Nice. Track 1:[35:02] It's so cool. Track 3:[35:07] What's that? Track 4:[35:09] Yeah, her company is is Lily put hats. She makes amazing stuff. And I mean, I think these these hats she made for Gord and the likeness of one for the silent auction, it's kind of a it's kind of a priceless item. So we're excited tosee what it does. Track 1:[35:29] That's what I saw. I saw that she had sponsored the show. So I was like, oh, that's interesting. I wonder what she could be sponsoring me. That's awesome. That's yeah. Track 4:[35:42] Yeah, she makes great stuff. Track 3:[35:43] I'm so stoked to see you guys at the show. I mean, it's going to be the, I mean, granted, it's going to be cool to see Tim and JD because we only talk via Skype, but you guys aregoing to be a highlight, man. Let me tell you. All right. Bye.

The first season was filmed down the street from my house. Literally. Oh my God. So it's, so, yeah. It's really Park Boy, so that's different. I've watched most of it.

Click here to find Weird Darkness in your favorite podcast app: https://linktr.ee/weirddarkness IN THIS EPISODE: Deep in the bowels of London is a railway built to serve not the living citizens of the city above… but of the dead below. (Railway of the Dead) *** Sometimes they are kind towards humans, even assisting them if in distress, or giving gifts. But some consider them lustful and evil, and still others claim they are the risen dead of brutally killed women. And there are reports of them being seen even today. We'll look at the history and lore of mermaids. (Mythical Mermaids) *** For years, Country singer Johnny Horton told friends of a premonition he couldn't shake. A premonition of his own death. Not just THAT he would be killed… but HOW. And he was eerily accurate. And that wasn't the end of his tragic story. (The Last Ride of Johnny Horton) *** Camping can be an amazing experience, especially when with friends or family. But even surrounded by those you love, when it gets dark, the wilderness gets creepy. Was that just an animal in the woods you heard, or something more? Was that blur you just saw a trick of the light or is there really something circling your campsite? I'll share some true stories of campers who experienced much more than what they bargained for.
