You heard him kicking off the show. yeah i got i got a brady I had a long day at work, and I want like just a quarter of the energy that you have in your videos and where i and and what I in your concerts, man. I love the high energy.
00:05:44
Speaker
How's it going, man? How are you doing tonight? um
Concert Experiences and TikTok's Influence
00:05:46
Speaker
I'm doing good as far as like the, the concerts, man, like that's, that's before I had even a fraction of the followers that I do now, that's how I got booked for opening up for a lot of national acts.
00:06:00
Speaker
Um, I've played everything from like 6,000 seats to 12, I think up to 12,000 seats at a few of my venues, a few venues. Yeah. Big ones. Well, anyways, that's how I got in is, um,
00:06:12
Speaker
ah First of all, I'm really quiet. Right. And then I just, yeah, i just step on stage. um Extremely professional. I mean, I once once I set foot on stage, I put the hammer down like nobody's saying.
00:06:25
Speaker
Nice. I dig it. I think I think that's one of the things I like about you. I was telling you behind the scenes, you know I came across your song Creek on TikTok. It's everywhere. I don't know once it got into my algorithm. I don't know if it's like that for everybody, but it's everywhere.
00:06:40
Speaker
And after hearing it, I don't know, a few hundred times, it was like, all right, gotta go check this guy out to see and see what he's about. And then I was hooked. I was like, ah you have this crazy combination of like 80s rock, heavy metal, country. you know It's just like you just blend it all together into a a blender or, you know, and, and, and we get you, man. And I'm digging it. I love it. I love the high energy. and I'm a rock guy. I'm a country guy. listened to a little bit to everything, but I always seem to gravitate more towards the rock and country and you just make it work perfectly.
00:07:16
Speaker
Well, I signed a distribution deal back in. So I signed a record label um back in September. ah And they told me from the very beginning, they were like, you know, this is either going to work extremely well.
00:07:33
Speaker
And you're going to blow up and be massive. said Or it's not going to work. it's go It's not going to be like middle of the road success. It's how they're going to be.
Record Deals and Musical Influences
00:07:43
Speaker
Bang. um Or it's going to be snakes and sparklers from Joe Dirt.
00:07:51
Speaker
If you're a fan of Joe Dirty, is that a bad thing? I can see that. You got a little Joe Dirty. It's what the consumer wants. You got a little Joe Dirty. I dig it.
00:08:06
Speaker
no yeah youre hey We were talking and and you know, some of your music influence i can see where you grab the p pnw uh and i see where some of that influence comes from you know do you have any other big influences that kind of make you blend your styles together i'll be a diehard acdc fan forever for this yeah forever man uh I'll be, I'm a diehard, uh, Travis trip fan. So like when you hear some of my writing and stuff, you'll definitely am voice structuring. You'll hear a lot of Travis trade in there. And then, um, for modern, I keep it hardy.
00:08:48
Speaker
yes all yes Nice. Yeah, he, he does. He came out of nowhere. where and And the first song I heard from him, you know, was that weight in the truck. And I was like, Oh, come i'm digging it. And then ah the next one was, um,
00:09:04
Speaker
Oh, I can't think of the name of it now. It's that real heavy song. um Sold Out? No, it's it's an it's a newer one. It's that real heavy song about the the farmer who just wants to fire his gun off and take his pills and drink his whiskey. Oh, oh oh I think he did that with Can't remember if he did it by himself or if he did it with Stephen Wilson Jr. Stephen Wilson Jr. is another one that, I mean, that guy's self-taught on guitar. He's a mammoth.
00:09:35
Speaker
Nice. So if you get a chance, like, look his music up because he's another guy. Like, I caught him early, too. I caught his first video that he came out with and on YouTube, and I saw it when it had, like, 2,000 views.
00:09:51
Speaker
oh wow Yeah, nobody even knew who this guy was, and then he just caught some major fire.
Challenges and Showmanship in Music
00:09:59
Speaker
It's crazy in today's world with social media and stuff how how quickly something can catch.
00:10:06
Speaker
And, you know, hopefully hopefully it doesn't just become, you know, become, you've seen I've seen a lot of artists who blow up on TikTok and that success doesn't translate anywhere else outside of TikTok.
00:10:22
Speaker
um yeah and i think at that point it's it's um drive dependent right yeah so you take a guy like me i live this breathe this every single day of my life there is no there's no hey let me take a break for a second or i'm tired no i i grind every single day like uh yesterday i made 200 phone calls just to try and get a couple of venues booked in March.
00:10:50
Speaker
um And that's, that's just, that's just one day. So like point is, is like not every artist is cut out for it. Right. yeah their Or their material isn't sellable. So the agencies won't put them on their roster because either, either one or two things, either they were just a one hit wonder and they don't have any other material and they just blew up in their living room and that's it for them.
00:11:15
Speaker
or they're lazy. That's what it comes down to, bro. Yeah, i think that I think that's across the board and in any facet of entertainment. I mean, you've got to be willing to put the work in. Otherwise, it's not just going to fall into your lap magically. You have to be out there you know, grinding out and, you know, whether you're doing standup music, whatever. how what it is Yeah. And if you don't believe what this guy's saying, go check out his social media and you're going to see how busy he is. It's it shows it shows on your social media. I mean, there's no slack in there.
00:11:50
Speaker
Yeah. And I mean, that's just shoot. That's just in front of the scenes. That's not behind it. I mean, I'll tell you, 90% of my work goes unseen.
00:12:01
Speaker
And i'm good I'm good with it. I'm good i'm good with the 10% getting out there to the world because that's the best of my abilities and songwriting and stuff like that. And again, like my songs are going to be different, man. like I'm not going to write a song... on it like you know how morgan wall and you know he's a great guy great great songs but like all of his songs sound the same brother i i'm not yeah i'm not that artist yeah um like i've got a song um 18 beers that we did that's got a whole choir section behind it i got a i got a song called old crank windows and these songs would come out like here in a month or three months or four months
00:12:43
Speaker
I got a song called Oh Crank Windows where I broke down a whole horn section into the end of the song. And I'm self-producing all of my stuff. Yes, I am taking it to a pro-level studio.
00:12:55
Speaker
in fact, you can look it up, people. It's Castle Recording Studio just outside of Franklin. But like it's actually legendary. That's where it comes. I've heard of that. and I've had some other guests mention that studio. Al Capone's bookkeeper used to use it for running underground gambling rings. Nice. They were doing wild stuff. I was like,
00:13:19
Speaker
But
Personal Narratives and Career Transitions
00:13:20
Speaker
um yeah, I chose to self-produce my stuff and be in control of you two hands on the wheel per se. And i'm going to I'm going to continue that. Thoughts on Luke Combs? I'm glad you guys brought this up. ah I think Luke Combs is great.
00:13:40
Speaker
ah He's one of our great country voices of our time. I think he's a good guitar player and there's a lot about him coming from an artist standpoint, right?
00:13:53
Speaker
I see the world different than y'all did. you And coming from artist standpoint, he's a real artist. Like if you asked me if I like George straight, once I found out that he doesn't write his own songs, wasn't a fan.
00:14:09
Speaker
Hmm. That's just, but that's my opinion. That's just me. I like artists that can sing, play and perform their songs live without auto tune. Yeah. ah Come on, man. Yeah, exactly. You know, some talent, but you got, you got artists like Shibuzy. And again, like, you know, very popular songs. I'm even, I'm even ah guilty of liking a couple of his songs, but at the end of the day, when I listened to him live, I can hear the,
00:14:40
Speaker
Auto-tune. I'm like, I know exactly that. if that didn't exist, you'd be screwed. Yeah, not only that, but we we talk about all the time i'm on this show specifically. You know, sometimes a singer can have an off night.
00:14:53
Speaker
Yeah, I haven't. But you know what? It's authentic. It's real. It's raw. Not only that, if you're a performer and you can put on a show too, a part of that is why I – because I can listen to your music all day long.
00:15:06
Speaker
In the car, and a and the in the truck, at work, at home, do it, whatever. But when I come out to see a show, not only do I want to hear the music, but I want to see a show. I want to see a performance. you know like Don't get up there on stage and just hold a microphone and sing at me. I want to see that energy and and and you feel your songs like we are.
00:15:24
Speaker
you know It's an experience. So, yeah. Yeah. andre on files That's why you'll see me, dude. I'll scale the the trust system on these stages. I'll get up there like 60 feet in the air and hang by one arm. Because, like, people can't. Y'all came to see a show, man. well figure I'll figure out. oof On my way down, I'll figure out how to land. We'll worry about that. Yeah, right, your wife has a has good life insurance policy or or medical coverage or something well i'm a different cat though man i rodeoed for 18 years yeah nice so you you look are you looking to add that uh add to that list of uh former rodeo guys who have blown up in music i mean uh
00:16:12
Speaker
There's been a few of them, not not a whole lot, but there have been a few of them. I'm a big Chris LeDoux fan, so that's why I bring it up. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's at the end of the day, like, honestly, this isn't about me blowing up or anything like that. If that if that's in the cards for me, if God has that in store for me, then that's wonderful.
00:16:33
Speaker
um Honestly, at the end of the day, the only thing I want is my, I got two little girls and a wife, and I just want them, you know, financially taken care of. Yeah, exactly. I think that's what every dad and husband wants.
00:16:47
Speaker
And to do what I love to do instead of work a job. then That's what it's about. I hope one day I can quit my job and I can just do this full time. yeah I mean, it's possible, but like, yeah, this is the sucky part where we're at right now. um And again, like I'm transferring back. I, for the last six years before 2025, I, I toured at a professional capacity. I, I didn't work a day job, but I took this year off to grow followers and get serious about social media because that's the only way that I'm going to get
00:17:21
Speaker
On the road. That's the only way people are going to figure out who I am. So yeah I'm transferring back to that starting March. But in our situation, our circumstance right now, yours and mine specifically, this is the moment where we're having to work a full-time job on top of pushing for this career thing. And that takes...
00:17:44
Speaker
And unfortunately, our families, ah people that are closest to us, suffer the most because
Touring Realities and Industry Evolution
00:17:50
Speaker
they get the least amount of time. Yeah, exactly. And that's, you know, I'm a dad too. I, well, I have two kids that live at home and my oldest one, she, she moved out a few months back.
00:18:01
Speaker
I got one out of three so far. I'm doing all right. She made it to adulthood. She's on her own. Hey, I'm winning so far at this dad stuff. But you know, I still have two kids and I have a girlfriend and it's like, sometimes her and I talk and I'm like, you know, I'm thinking about,
00:18:17
Speaker
Starting a couple new shows. i I have to do more. I have to show my face and and be on this network more. and And it's like, I know that means that more shows during the week is less time with us. And she was like, do what you got to do. You know, it so yeah because that's my goal. my My end game is I'm tired of working a nine to five.
00:18:38
Speaker
This is what I love. I love being behind the camera on the computer and chatting with people from whether it's just hanging out and being weird one night or having guests, you know, from different facets of entertainment coming through and getting to know them and talk to them and hang out with them and introducing them to to our audience and our crowd.
00:18:58
Speaker
Yeah. So, yeah, it's that that that that that work, family, ah passion, kind of. there's There's no happy balance between that.
00:19:11
Speaker
There is no good way to put it, brother. No, not not at all. Not at all. um
00:19:19
Speaker
How is that what was that? What was that like being out there, you know, touring? And, you know, like, I couldn't imagine. but I couldn't imagine being somewhere with 100 people, let alone thousands of um It's the greatest experience of your life is what it is.
00:19:41
Speaker
I mean, it is. There's, you know, when people don't, when people don't know who you are, right. I'm Austin Lindstrom from Timbuktu. Okay.
00:19:53
Speaker
I am no Morgan Wallen or what have you. Yeah. When I get up there, people don't know me. It's almost a bonus feature. Cause when I step up on that bike,
00:20:07
Speaker
I have this ability that I've learned over the years, but it's always kind of been either you have it or you don't type of deal to be a front man per se. Right. And I just, I grabbed my crowd and there's something to be said that like when I light up a stage and people start screaming so loud yeah that you can feel their voices come up through the bottom of the stage.
00:20:34
Speaker
Oh, man, it's like a drug. rumbles It rumbles your feet. Yeah, wow. Yeah, that's... And any nerve any nerve or any second guessing or questioning.
00:20:46
Speaker
yeah and I can't imagine... Right out the door. Exactly, and I can't imagine with you there's no... ah There's no like walk up, build up or anything. You just, you come in, kick the door in right off the hinges and are a hundred miles an hour. As soon as you hit the stage.
00:21:01
Speaker
I do build it up. Yes. Oh, do you? Okay. Yeah. So I send my, I send my band out there. um We, we arrange these things in the bus while we're on the road.
00:21:12
Speaker
i send my band out there and I'm like, If you're in the right position, you can see me. I'm off to the side of the stage. It's kind of tucked in, but I'm hidden. and Dude, i'm like i'm over the like I'm behind the stage stretching. Because I'm getting ready to do a P90X, brother. I'm doing it.
00:21:34
Speaker
i'm getting I'm getting stretched out over there like I'm getting ready to jump into a street fight. yeah because because That's what the stage is for me. yes that's the That's for me that's how I like to bring the energy.
00:21:52
Speaker
um and it's It's not a common thing and that's what makes me stand out. yeah I'm looking to burn the place down. What, if you know, like, and again, i love all the opportunities that I've ever received in this, but like, when you put me on stage, I want to go what national act?
00:22:12
Speaker
Yeah. They're going to forget about who you're opening up. Yeah, I want people at the end to be like, man, I'm ready to go
00:22:21
Speaker
um' That was a great show. and I'm exhausted. just bought $300 worth of beer in 90 minutes. Yeah. that man We've all been to concert venues each day. that that That is not a hard thing to do. oh my God. That's the other thing is like, you know, a common question that I get, this happens a lot. Common question that I get, they like, why are ticket prices so expensive?
00:22:48
Speaker
Well, I'll put it right in a perfect little box and a bow for you right here. So back in the day, we didn't have Spotify, Apple Music streaming platforms. Okay.
00:23:01
Speaker
So when an artist say Metallica or Any of the big artists would put an album out. Garth Brooks, they'd put an album out, right? Their album would be 10, 15 bucks for 10 songs or whatever the price was. yeah They'd sell a million copies of it and they'd make 10 or 15 million dollars, right? For just round figures. Mm-hmm.
00:23:27
Speaker
that doesn't happen anymore yeah i don't least anymore. So now they get pennies on the dollar for their music. So how does the label make their money back?
00:23:40
Speaker
Well, to book a middle of the road, mid grade guy at the level, like take Scott McCreary and you can look this up as common knowledge. Just take Scott McCreary for example.
00:23:53
Speaker
He's a hundred grand for 90 minutes. Wow. That's not the lighting. That's not the stage. That's not the sound equipment. That's not the engineers. That's not the whole team it took to put it together. That's not the people standing at the gate. That's not the security.
00:24:09
Speaker
Okay. You start wrapping, you start racking the number. So like now here we go. yeah we got, we got, $400,000 concert. Well, why is my ticket expensive? Why is my ticket so much? they we've I've talked about that out here. That's $250,000, $400,000 to put on a one-night event.
00:24:30
Speaker
yeah just a Yeah, I've talked about that out here. I'm old, and and and I miss the days of going and buying a record or a tape or a CD and getting to hear all the songs. My my middle daughter, she's just she's discovered that. as She's listening to vinyl and stuff. She's 16, and she's like,
00:24:47
Speaker
I want a record player. Okay. She's going and buying records and stuff like that, but it's already music issues. But she comes down and she starts flipping through the little page. know Every record, cassette, you know CD always had that little book that little booklet inside of it and you get to flip through, and some of them have stories where the songs come from or what the band was doing. is She's like, this is so cool. I'm like, yeah, you don't get that shit today. that's That's part of what you paid for back in the day when you bought albums. But yeah, no. Yeah.
00:25:15
Speaker
It's we're just in that time era of instant gratification. How fast can I get it right now? o We've groomed, we've groomed our society and it's it's too late now. I mean, we're not going to, we're not going to change the course of, of the music industry or any of that.
00:25:31
Speaker
No, unfortunately. And that's where, um That's where, you know, social media has become the or the unnecessary evil, I should say. Yeah, if you don't make it big on social media,
00:25:45
Speaker
it could It doesn't matter. Yeah. it doesn't matter Nothing. And I had to settle into that fact. And um so kind of funny timeline. Yeah. I like I got all my chips together. I got my I got the record of the album. I got the video done. Right. Got everything like as perfect as I thought I could be.
00:26:08
Speaker
and July 15th, I released that video of Creek that got that got the three hundred and 50,000 views or whatever on TikTok.
00:26:20
Speaker
ye And from there, it was like game on. I was like, oh, oh this whole time, huh? ah its here This whole time, that lightning in the bottle. Now you're trying to grab it again. yeah and it's yeah yeah I've had some good i've had some good good runs, man. I've got a song um that we covered called White House Road. I don't know if you've listened to it, but there's a white house road cover that I did, um on Instagram and Tik TOK. It got over 600,000 views. Nice.
00:26:52
Speaker
nice Um, and then my song bullshit, big fan of that song. My song, uh, yes. Thank you. That I was a Craig fan. Love that. and My song bullshit that I released, um, December 19th. That's right.
00:27:09
Speaker
December Um, um It did really well. It got 200,000 views. so And again, it just puts you in the neighborhood of streaming. Like right now on Spotify, I've got like 31,000 monthly listeners. And I'm streaming right around 91,000 streams a month.
00:27:26
Speaker
But my portfolio is really small. yeah i don I've only got like five songs on there because I deleted my entire portfolio. And I completely started everything over from social media, all of it. I started all fresh and brand new.
00:27:42
Speaker
But I did keep some of the old school Austin and YouTube still. If you dig back far enough, you'll find it. Nice. that's that's That's my jam is YouTube. And, and you know, i find I find a lot of artists on Instagram. Instagram yeah is really starting to come around as far as, you know, different entertainers, whether it's music or stand up or, you know, whatever the case may be.
00:28:07
Speaker
That's where I find a lot of musical guests for this show is come across them on Instagram and then i'm like, alright where's your YouTube or Spotify or whatever because that's where I'm going is YouTube and I want to see what all is there and
Songwriting and Performance Style
00:28:20
Speaker
I've had some guests on here where I've I've dug back and got stuff that was two three four years old and like, holy crap, what are you doing?
00:28:30
Speaker
I get into a wormhole if I like what I like then I i listen to everything. I've got some old school stuff on there, man. and I, I kept it on purpose.
00:28:42
Speaker
Ain't nothing wrong with that. If you like it, keep it on there. Let it come back. you I kept it just so that people don't, uh, we're working on East coast shows right now. We're trying to get in, but, um, it's a tough world out there. Everybody wants us to be a cover band and, and,
00:29:00
Speaker
I'm an original guy, man. I've got got really great songs and come to my buddy's bar. Well, you got be a little bit more specific than that. lot of bars in America. Well, lots of bar. Yeah. You got to be a little bit closer than my buddy's bar, but yeah, man.
00:29:19
Speaker
So anyways, yeah, like about the show's trying to get it on track. And like I said yesterday, we made like 200 phone calls. I mean, everywhere from Texas to Australia to Sweden. We're going we're going to play we're going to play a festival, um buckle up country is what they call it. And it's in Uppsala, Sweden.

So we're going over there to play June 13th. I believe we got a time slot then. Mm-hmm. is it Have you been overseas before? Is this going be a first? I mean, I've i' played in Mexico and stuff like that, but no, this will be like the first actual overseas. It's just cool. I get to do it well, you know, im under my music portfolio. so so Yeah. Hell yeah. and he yeah um how long How long have you just, this is something I'm always curious about because I've come across people like, yeah I just picked up a guitar like five years ago and now here I am.
00:30:16
Speaker
you know How long have you been doing doing music or wanted to do music? ah So back in like gym, just kidding.
00:30:29
Speaker
Oh, no, this ain't that story, man. yes i was years old, been
00:30:39
Speaker
thirteen or fourteen um um 2013 is kind of i had played music ever since i was like seven um 2013 i picked up a guitar and got pretty serious about it then i got in a book i got into a bunch of trouble uh with the law and then um 2015 when i walked out of jail after doing nine months i was like you know what Yeah, after taking a little vacation in jail for about nine months, I was like, you know what I'm going to do?
00:31:13
Speaker
I'm going to sing and write country music for the rest of my life. And number one, I know I'm not very good at it. I don't know what I'm doing. Yeah. But. Or do I, but here we are. why But I've been able to figure out everything else in my life on my own.
00:31:32
Speaker
So I might as well, you know. So I just, I had a heading and a mission and and and a goal. And I just knew like Hey, this is something that I'm going to do. There's no other alternative for me. There is no other outs.
00:31:48
Speaker
the And you've heard those stories a million times and you're like, and I wonder what it would be like to be that guy. ah pretty very wonder I wonder what it would be like to be up on stage. And then three years later, you're up on stage. You know, you're you're at some random bar in Nashville. It's like, man, I want to do that one day. And then six months later, you're doing it. Like, oh, what hell did I get here?
00:32:11
Speaker
Yeah. And I will say, man, like, i don't really, and this is this is a factual thing. And even Zach Toph said this. um All the people that are really good,
00:32:25
Speaker
all the people that are doing something, we don't play on on Broadway. yeah We don't touch it with a 10 foot pole. um Number one, we don't want to get stuck down there. And ah number two, that's like your time is not best.
00:32:42
Speaker
You got to think, man, time is precious. You've only got so much time to be an artist, okay? That is not the best use of your time. And if you're trying to go to the studio or do anything else, your voice is already blown out because you just sang four hours.
00:32:56
Speaker
Yeah. Every single night, there's no break. Yeah. and And that's crazy because, you know, being, being an outside, you know, on the outside, looking in as a fan, I'm like, and And you're not the first artist that said that. ah you know I had a lot of artists on here from from the Nashville area or who have moved to Nashville, and they say the same thing. like no i don't um Very rarely do I play on Broadway.
00:33:19
Speaker
you know We try to avoid it. There's plenty of other places off of Broadway to perform and do gigs and stuff like that. Yeah, it's it's almost like a black hole. ah one One person told me, they're like, once you once you guess you you're there, you can never get out. You can never leave.
00:33:35
Speaker
it's just like and somebody told Somebody told me on Friday, they're like, yeah, they're super, super picky about who gets to play at those bars and whatnot. And I was like, what you got to tell what do you got to tell them? That you play covers?
00:33:47
Speaker
Yeah, I was going to say. I can sing Morgan Holland really well. Yeah. I can sing Blue Combs really well. okay yeah i'm not trying do I'm trying to be Lindstrom.
00:34:02
Speaker
I'm not trying to be Blue Combs. Yeah, exactly. that's And that's something else that, you know, with music, and and again, I'm sorry, I sound old. I'm 40-some years old. I sound like an old old curmudgeon.
00:34:17
Speaker
A lot of the music in the last 10, 15 years or whatever, it's it's a lot of bullshit. Like, I got a beat and I got a hook. There's no songwriters left out there. Like you said about George Strait earlier, you know, back in the day,
00:34:30
Speaker
so many artists, they would write their music. And you don't get that anymore. Some of the biggest names out there have 15 writers for one song. Yeah.
00:34:41
Speaker
It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous, man.
00:34:46
Speaker
it's ridiculous man um And I will say, man, like everything that I put out, maybe it doesn't have the the sound and and lyrical ability of 15 minds in one. I'll never claim to be that level of writer, but I write that shit myself by myself.
00:35:05
Speaker
Right. often Oftentimes I sit right down in this room, right here to do it. Hell yeah. Do you want to, is there anybody out there that you would like to write with, you know, if given the opportunity to, to write a song with or anything like that?
00:35:20
Speaker
Uh, Treaty Oak, Whiskey Myers, Hardy. Hardy is, in my opinion, are the best country music, uh, lyricist and melody.
00:35:34
Speaker
So country music songwriter of our time. Oh, wow. Yeah. In my, in my ability, like if you go around and you take all the greats, because think about Hardy this way, he's been able to go heavy metal.
00:35:50
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Very heavy bro country. Right. And like regular country. And then like now this like spinoff thing that he's doing now, like tell me what other writer has that ability. Hmm.
00:36:07
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. You're not going to yeah that's so i think that are But again, like that would make me want to write a song with him because...
00:36:18
Speaker
He's so versatile. I think anybody could sit down and write a song with him. And no matter what, you're going to come out with a number one hit from that guy. And a lot of people a lot of people don't realize how many number one hits that guy has written.
00:36:32
Speaker
Well, before anyone knew who the hell he was. Yeah, exactly. That's that's the crazy thing. Did you know that he has a master's in songwriting?
00:36:44
Speaker
I didn't even know that was a thing you could get. yeah The guys are the guys are f freaking genius, bro. yeah oh yeah that's ah Yeah. I didn't even know that was something that you could actually get. That
00:36:59
Speaker
oh oh let just kind of derailed now I lost my train of thought there. Yeah. um Hardy is also great.
00:37:12
Speaker
hey You can tell I'm influenced by him. a little ah Just a little bit. Not not much. Just smidge.
00:37:25
Speaker
So, I'm a little bit jealous of you because, ah you know, like looking at your socials, looking at your videos, you get to pull off looks that I've often threatened.
00:37:36
Speaker
Oh, God. i don't yeah I don't know, dude. i just I just jump into it. I've got this guitarist. His name is Mergs. He was the one that kind of like got this got the idea planted in my head. and then Once I started like with the overall jorts that you've seen you wear, once I got started into that, man i just I took off with it. I was like, hey, you know what we should do?
00:38:06
Speaker
We should all dress up as rodeo clowns with those big-ass foam hats and play a show like that.
00:38:13
Speaker
What did your band think? I mean, they were like, um
Tour Stories and Industry Challenges
00:38:20
Speaker
I was like, don't worry. you Don't worry. In order to be on tour with me, you got to sign a contract that says you got to wear what I tell you to do.
00:38:30
Speaker
I got you. man man. Again, like it's all about like nothing is going to grab an audience's attention faster. When they see this six foot two and a half white kid yeah full grown corn fed country walk out there with his blistering white legs and go heard y'all came to town for some country.
00:39:01
Speaker
yeah thanks do you walk isn't What the fuck is this dude doing? It grabs their attention, though. you know and it is It is a part of my personality, man. I'm just all the way, man. like i like to put i like to and bang! I forget what the song is, but like how we open up a show sometimes is by the guitar lick in Guns and... ah not Guns and Roses, but ah I think it's Rolling Stones, where it's like... na na na na
00:39:44
Speaker
What is it? Painted Black. Painted Black. Dude, that's how we start a show. I love that song, too. Oh, I bet you could do a sick cover of that, too. Oh, people are like, wait, what's what's happening? I thought these guys were opening up for Craig Morgan.
00:39:58
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
00:40:03
Speaker
yeah ah oh yeah I tell you who, I tell you who, out of all the people that I've opened up for, uh, who liked me the most was Cadillac three.
00:40:16
Speaker
i like those guys. Those boys. So after, after I finished up my set list, um those boys like they're like hey come and i didn't know was them at the time they're like hey come here man and it was in you know they got the 40 foot 45 foot tour bus and then the trailer that's behind it and i pop into the trailer and they've got like cabinets and stuff in there and i'm like hey man what's up they're like wow what a great set That was freaking fantastic, man. like The way you just like you came out like guns blazing. Yeah. straight out it straight You didn't waste no time getting into it. They were like, you know we're used to seeing like a lot of slow songs as so and stuff. They were like, we we'd love your stuff. Well, I didn't know it was them, so we're we're in there before their set is getting on, and we're shooting ah we're shooting whiskey in the back of their trailer.
00:41:09
Speaker
And so i go out and I'm, I'm hanging out with my wife and my friends had all come. They'd all come to see me. Um, and I'm out in the crowd and I look up I'm like, recognize those guys. And then I was like, Oh shit. I was like, Oh shit. I like pointed up at him and they, they,
00:41:27
Speaker
like secretly tossed me down a shot of whiskey. They had like this flask thing. They threw it down to me. I was like, oh.
00:41:38
Speaker
Those guys are super cool. Nice. i bet i mean I bet you get to... you know You probably come across a lot of pretty cool people with touring like you were, you know doing it full time.
00:41:50
Speaker
But I'm sure you also come across... the I've met... two sp sps I'm not going to name names, but I've met some real dicks. Yeah, I won't ask other things. And guess what? That's okay, too. and how However you want to live live your your life, you go for it, man. But I'm...
00:42:09
Speaker
um I like to be kind to people. i like to I like to put on one hell of a show. I like to set all of my personal shit to the side and just go out and put on one hell of show.
00:42:23
Speaker
i And everyone bought a ticket. Think about it that way. They're paying to be there for a professional, not some sniveling crybaby because the snack tray wasn't on point.
00:42:38
Speaker
Yeah. I'm not a gentle and get you some snacky snacks because there's loud one at this point anymore. It's not that big of a deal. but but but like We don't play at the tipsy trout. ah Not, not tomorrow night, not tomorrow night. That's in February.
00:42:59
Speaker
That's in February. Unless there's something I don't know about, but the trout is in February, West Virginia. Yeah. But, yeah, man, like, we don't do that shit at at my at my bus. we don't well I don't play those games. And if if you if you want to pout, just sit the night out.
00:43:21
Speaker
Yeah, just chill. Don't even come onto the um onto the but or onto the stage. Thoughts about Brad Paisley?
00:43:32
Speaker
Incredible songwriters. The best country guitarist at all. um Anybody that wants to argue this, we can go to town right now in the comment section. you willing lead Best lead guitarist country music has ever had and ever will have.
00:43:51
Speaker
That guy slays on the guitar. He doesn't even, he like, I've never seen anybody that takes chicken pickin' and turns it into a metal riff.
00:44:06
Speaker
That guy can. Yeah. I can't. He's insane on the guitar. Him and Keith Urban are probably two of my favorite country guitars. So I watched a video where him and Keith kind of like had their little battle. I'm telling you right now, Brad Paisley could have wiped the floor with that guy. Oh, yeah, yeah. There's no doubt. I mean, I'm telling you. I watched moments where Brad was hitting ghost notes that you couldn't hear.
00:44:34
Speaker
Because I was watching his fingers and I was like, that motherfucker's holding back. Yeah, exactly. i I've seen it he's on He is holding back. No, dude. That guy's a freaking legend. and I think he did the right thing with his career.
00:44:52
Speaker
I think him taking a step back. and kind of exiting, I think that was the right thing to do. oh yeah Now, I do think that he should make a comeback but who said that with the Zach Tops. and the yeah Now's the time to make a comeback if he wanted to.
00:45:12
Speaker
Yeah. and yeah no i mean The guy was at the top of his game and decided, yeah, like I think I'm good. Yeah, I've done everything I can do at this point.
00:45:23
Speaker
yeah yeah now yeah I'm going to go make State Farm commercials with Peyton Manning. Perfect. And it paid loads money to do it. Yeah, exactly. you him and Him and Peyton Manning are a great duo, and I enjoy watching the commercials with those two in it. so Not that my opinion matters. Jason White is on your side.
00:45:46
Speaker
You're right. Exactly. Uh, no, man, that's, I was going to ask you something. Damn it. That happens. I tangents go one way and then I lose my dream of thought. Um, Jersey and ask ah way up in the comments earlier.
00:46:05
Speaker
Do you, with your sound and your combination of music, um, With that mixture of that 80s, almost eighty s rock, 80s heavy metal influence, do you have a particular band or artist from the 80s that you really like? that again One of your top ones?
00:46:25
Speaker
um I'd say Motley is up there, Motley Crue. They were 80s, weren't they? Right? Yeah, eighty s ninety s lady or Yeah, mid-80s. Yeah, I think they were mid-80s.

00:47:49
Speaker
ah Back in Black is one of the... Isn't it like in the top two or three highest selling records? i think yeah I think it is. average it's like It's ridiculous. And I mean, they've used they've used their songs on like every TV show and movie you could imagine. o i don't know I just, I know it's very simple rock.

00:58:44
Speaker
You should be taking as many of these as you can. How do you push your music out? having conversations like this with a regular person, because then what one day he'll post it, right?
00:58:58
Speaker
You know, Gleick will post it. And then one day people will look back and be like, wow, he's, is, he's not an alien. yeah think he might be a regular human being. Well, i i don't know.

Speaker
um I might surprise you guys with a little something this Friday if Michael doesn't do a show. um ah appreciate you, Jersey. I really do. um I might surprise you guys on Friday. And then, of course, Saturday we have...
01:10:20
Speaker
The shit show, the train wreck that you guys can't seem to look away from. Nonsensical nonsense. Six hours, straight fuckery, straight nonsense.
01:10:33
Speaker
And then, you know, it's it's good, though. It's good for the soul, as our good friends of Southern Outlaw all say. It's good for the soul. We need it. We need that we need get that that break from reality and to just cut loose and have a good time.
01:10:46
Speaker
Yes, for some Saturday night is date night. And we love the two of you for it. Well, I do. I can't speak for the rest of the heathens or degenerates. But um and then Sunday, ah Rick and I will be back. We did not do a show this past Sunday. Unfortunately, weather was kind of shit-tastic where he was.
01:11:07
Speaker
Obviously you guys know the weather up here in the in the north and Midwest and the east was absolutely atrocious so we We opted out of doing a show Sunday, but we'll be back this Sunday with our Super Bowl picks and some other Show related stuff that we're going to talk about and of course always football and then Monday Wally's back doing Speedway stories and next Tuesday on the show returning I think they might hold the record for most times on their show. I think it's either their third or fourth appearance, and I'm super excited to hang out with the guys. They have become family. They've become more than just friends. They've become family.
01:11:47
Speaker
um One and only Southern Outlaws band will be hanging out. And it's been a little minute since they've been here. uh but uh they're gonna come back on we're gonna hang out shoot a shit see what they've been up to maybe hear some new music and uh all that fun stuff but it'll be a good time next tuesday night and then the following tuesday night i'm flipping the script on you guys i'm not doing a music show i'm actually gonna have uh actor director writer you name it he's doing it uh jake young back on the show on the on the 10th so i'm super stoked about that we're gonna be talking about his new movie uh

Make sure I can reach out to them and I can talk contact them and ah we'll get them on the show. um So I've got a lot of... What is that saying? I've got a lot of...
01:13:22
Speaker
coals in the fire or something shit like that. I don't know. Coals take too long. I want to cook with gasoline. so hopefully Hopefully I'll be lining up more and more guests. The great thing about this show is it might not always be music.
01:13:35
Speaker
I might have actors on. I might have people on from different entertainment worlds just because i can't. if You never know what's going to happen. Anywhoies,
01:13:49

So be on the lookout for that. um They're obviously doing a lot of shit and they got a lot of things going on and Gavin's crazy and I love him. So I can't wait to have him back on. He can basically come on here anytime he wants, whenever he wants. But, uh,
01:14:22
Speaker
I do hip-hop artists. Yes, I do. I do all genres of music. I've had rock, country, hip-hop, um techno.
01:14:36
Speaker
Yeah, i've I've had a lot of different artists on here. And it don't matter. If they've got good music, I'm reaching out for them. And it's an added bonus when they're awesome. And and I've been fortunate. I haven't had a bad guest yet.
01:14:50
Speaker
So I've been very lucky in that aspect. So just just have him on every Tuesday night what if you guys are fine with that. I know Kayla would be fine if Gavin was on the show every Tuesday night.
01:15:04
Speaker
She would have no problems whatsoever. um but yes, I do artists of all genres. I don't care. um I'll listen to their music. If it's something I dig, it's something I like, I'll reach out to them. That is the caveat.
01:15:17
Speaker
you know i'm not I have had to turn down a couple artists, and I'm not doing it to be a dig. They just, I don't know. The music wasn't there. they They weren't as good as they thought they were, in my opinion, and who am I to judge? But, you know, I want i want to present you guys with good stuff. I want quality ah music that you guys are going to like.
