contestant friends. Hello, fellas,

31
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:13.080
But I'm going to beat the pads
out of you, and I will probably

32
00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:16.840
take my date to bed faster than
you guys can put one to wear on.

33
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:23.759
We have some beautiful bachelorettes, meet

00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:28.879

00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:53.520

41
00:02:55.879 --> 00:03:00.199
are going to choose a lucky gentleman
to go out on a night with a

42
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:05.560
special prize brought to you by our
sponsors. Sue, go ahead and take

43
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:10.080
it away, Bachelor number one.
What has been your favorite thing that your

44
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:14.759
other partner has put in your mouth? Well, I'll take val one,

45
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:21.080
Missus Valentino, and the favorite thing
that gets put into my mouth is probably

46
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:27.560
one of those nice long chocolate bananas
that we can split together, you know,

47
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:31.080
and I like having the extra chocolate
fallen off either sides. It's that's

48
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:36.319
probably my favorite thing. Number two, same question, what is your favorite

49
00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:40.120
thing that your partner has put in
your mouth? Wow? You know we're

50
00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:47.120
from the South and we eat literally
everything from hey to freaking ham and we

51
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:50.879
you know, we make our own
ham from you know, our pant had

52
00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:53.680
my pet, my pet pig,
Porky the other day, and name the

53
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:54.759
porky on purpose because you know,
we knew we were going to eat him

54
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:59.400
on Thursday. We bought him on
like Monday. But you know we're eating

55
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:03.240
Parky. We ate our horse Billy. You know, literally pretty much everything.

56
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:06.199
When it comes to the sail that
in corn of the cop I love

57
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:11.759
corn. And bachelor Number three,
same question for you. I would have

58
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:15.319
to say, my dear leicious Jackson, that would be the of a jagee

59
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:23.279
because a tasty of but a jagee
can go a long way, if you

60
00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:27.319
know what I'm saying. Missus Szuki, what about you and your question?

61
00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:31.120
For all three bachelors, I would
like for each one of the bachelors to

62
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:36.439
please pretend that you're a fruit,
and then I want you to tell me

63
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:41.959
what kind of fruits you are,
and then tell me about what's the best

64
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:46.839
part of being that fruit. Bachelor
number one. If I could pretend to

65
00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:50.879
be any fruit, you would have
to be a pineapple, spiky on the

66
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:56.759
outside and nice and sour on the
inside. The show. Bachelor number two,

67
00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:00.920
Whale, we are, like I
said, we're from sil just in

68
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:02.879
case you don't remember from me telling
you earlier, because I tend to babble

69
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:06.360
and I just keep going and going
and going, you know. But maybe,

70
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:12.000
like baby and apple, I'm really
a hard shailed person on the outside,

71
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:16.120
but on the inside, like what's
that word, delicious or something like

72
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:20.680
that, Like everybody wants to try
me. I gay us, well at

73
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:25.839
least in the family, right,
Hey, everybody wants to try me chill,

74
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:30.120
Bachelor number three. So I would
have to stay. I am like

75
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:35.000
Kiwi kind of smooth and round,
kind of peach fuzzy to the touch.

76
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:42.279
But once you bite into my juice, baby, there is no other delicacy

77
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:46.160
on the rocks or straight up,
baby, my fruit is that of a

78
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:55.240
keywee. You can jump into my
glass anytime, oh baby, in a

79
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.439
nice sprintzer. Huh, Baby,
I love a good keywee sprintzer in the

80
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:03.800
face. A little wetness never hurt
nobody, Miss Sue your second question for

81
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:10.639
all three bachelors. If you could
pick an amusement park had abandoned me out,

82
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:14.879
which one would it be? You
know, Sue, the amusement park

83
00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:18.480
would be my amusement park. Girlfriend. My rides go on all day,

84
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:23.720
all night, Baby, let's go. Bachelor number two, same question.

85
00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:27.879
I can never afford anything of those
I'm using me in the park of things

86
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:30.759
you're talking about out, so you
probably have to be the County Fire because

87
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:34.319
you pretty much do your own thing
there. And like I said earlier with

88
00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:40.279
Parky, you can take on some
souvenirs that end up being dinner. So

89
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:44.639
it's pretty cool either way for you. Bachelor number three, same question.

90
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:49.360
That would take you to nuts Very
Farm, because once you ride me Babies,

91
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:54.160
is no other ride you want to
ride. Baby. As a matter

92
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:57.120
of fact, I will go all
the way back to Disneyland and give you

93
00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:01.839
an e ticket for ecstasy. Baby, Come on down to nuts Berry Farm

94
00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:09.480
and ride it, Baby, right, cow girl ride? Oh all right?

95
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:14.319
The two Lucky Bachelorette Sue and Zuki
are going to make their decision on

96
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:18.360
who they want to choose. The
lucky winner will delight themselves in a wonderful

97
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:24.439
package vacation brought to you by our
special sponsor. So, Sue, who

98
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:30.040
do you choose to take on vacation
Bachelor number one? Will it be Bachelor

99
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:34.279
number two? Or will it be
Bachelor number three? I think I'm gonna

100
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:40.120
choose like number two because that's like
my lucky number. Also, I'm like

101
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:45.279
a veganism like advocate and like Parky
deserves to live, so I feel like

102
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:48.360
I could change your life, sweetheart. Well, I reckon that's pretty freaking

103
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:53.680
cool if you ask me. But
I'm sorry, sweetie. Parky's day at

104
00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:57.040
an item before I came here.
But I got some more at home,

105
00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:01.560
got Pinky and Jerry and Bailey Junior
and Stephanie. Missus. Zuki, who

106
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:05.079
do you choose to take your vacation
time with? Will it be Bachelor number

107
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:11.319
one, Bachelor number two or Bachelor
number three? Well, I guess since

108
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:15.519
we already started planning the bar menu, it's gonna have to be Bachelor number

109
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:20.720
three. Bachelor number three it is. And just to let you ladies and

110
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:26.279
gentlemen know the grand prize is a
weekend getaway at the Los Angeles Crystal Hotel

111
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:31.040
and Casino. That's right. Enjoy
all the amenities of this grand resort near

112
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:35.440
Compton, and enjoy dinner at the
world famous Wattsburghers in the city of watts

113
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:39.519
Oh. I love that. Hey, you think I could get a free

114
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:41.240
eight ball from me and my lady. From there, you will travel to

115
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:46.919
beauty to beautiful Venice Beach and enjoy
some boardwalk strolling, ending the night on

116
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:50.679
the casino floor playing some blackjack.
Have a great week, and we'll see

117
00:08:50.679 --> 00:09:24.759
you next time on the dating game. Back All right, all you cats

118
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:30.879
and kitties, Welcome back to Back
to the Eighties, hosted by the ever

119
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:39.440
so gracious and the ever soul sophisticated
yet handsome comedic duel of Tuscano and Chang.

120
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:46.639
I am the Chang. I am
joined by my favorite Italian besides Chef

121
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:54.080
Boyard. Everybody, give a round
of applause and a warm welcome to the

122
00:09:54.080 --> 00:10:01.720
most macho Italian Mexican guy that I
have ever met in my entire life.

123
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:07.679
Tuscano. Well, thank you,
thank you, I appreciate it. Thank

124
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:11.000
you. You're too kind. Can
we get a little bit louder? Call

125
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:16.519
you you people? I mean,
that's right, you know, it's just

126
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:18.480
got to really angry with me.
We have our audience in here and we

127
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:24.840
give them snacks or beverages, and
sometimes they just don't bring the energy.

128
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:28.039
Sometimes they don't, you know,
like they should be on command. When

129
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:33.360
I say applause, they should applaud. Right. Let's see if I say

130
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:39.480
damn it louder. Yes, right, and that's how it should be.

131
00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:43.960
Oh yeah, I'll give them a
round of applause now, Toscano. Tonight

132
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:48.279
we are going to go Imanu to
Imanu once again. But then again,

133
00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:56.000
this is what makes radio fun today. I chose alternative because it's um it's

134
00:10:56.039 --> 00:11:00.399
a genre that although I did listen
to it quite a bit when I was

135
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:05.159
a kid, it's it's still it
was ahead of its time, and then

136
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:09.360
it lost some ground at some point
during the nineties because in the nineties everything

137
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:13.120
went down the drain at some point. Do you notice that everything went down

138
00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:16.720
the drain in the nineties pretty much
when it came to blame pretty metal,

139
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:20.480
Well, yeah, I guess you
can. But I you know what,

140
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:26.000
I just blamed society. Yeah,
I blame MTV. I blame I even

141
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:31.799
blame to a certain degree the way
they wanted to reinvent the wheel with rock

142
00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:37.360
when they went into grunge, and
they wanted to do something that ended up

143
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:41.600
being nothing, and then it ended
up dying off, and then what came

144
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:43.320
out of that? You know what, bro, I hear where you're coming

145
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.399
from. But I actually have to
say, I think grunge was a rebirth

146
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:52.840
of rock and roll, hard rock
as we knew it. Like I just

147
00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:58.919
stated, I blame MT birth and
they're pop Shenanigans and oh but you can't

148
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:05.279
blame them that much. Well,
actually, remember you always say, what

149
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:07.159
was that video? Video killed the
radio star? Right? Just like the

150
00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:11.200
song that you love from the Buggles. However, I mean, come on,

151
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:16.519
there are so many bands that got
more attention because of MTV during the

152
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:20.919
only ten years that I liked it. They would have not even have been

153
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:26.759
heard if it wasn't for MTV.
Now do you now? On my defense

154
00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:30.639
here? I think bands got played
and got a lot of airplay because they

155
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:35.919
looked good. Everybody started performing for
a camera or an audience or a Super

156
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:43.639
Bowl halftime show rather than the original
feeling and the emotion of the music itself.

157
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:46.679
And yes, I did say I
blame MTV because they polish it up.

158
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:50.399
Everybody had to look pretty. But
then again, the music business went

159
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:56.559
ahead and wrote in on the cotails
of MTV and made the music business everything

160
00:12:56.840 --> 00:13:03.320
that it should not be pretty and
for the for the eye only. What

161
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.759
kind of satisfaction do we get with
the eye? We can get more listeners

162
00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:13.320
and more viewers with eye content than
we do with tell it. Therefore,

163
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:20.919
I think grunge kind of was that
illegitimate child that a teenage mother would have

164
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:26.360
to rock and roll. Grunge came
out and it kicked rock and roll in

165
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:30.200
the ass. But I also blamed
pretty metal. You know, bands like

166
00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:37.240
Poison and Winger and Motley Crue,
especially after Motley Crue went through some really

167
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:41.559
bad times where they got typical rocks
there as they got loaded, Vince Neil

168
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:46.960
went out, got hammered, killed
the guy from Hanoia Rocks while driving right.

169
00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:50.200
Uh, you know, it got
really watered down, really sugarcoated.

170
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:56.159
Everybody went pretty. Everybody was going
for the flowing hair, everybody was going

171
00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:01.879
for the spandex and and and just
the look. The essence of the music

172
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:05.480
was dying, So I have to
disagree with you and say grunge gave that

173
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:11.879
music rebirth. And then also we
had great bands that came on in in

174
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.799
the grunge. We had bands like
Sound Garden and Pearl Jam. We had

175
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:22.600
individuals like Kenny Wayne Shepherd who who
came out of the wings of a Steve

176
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:28.639
Ray Vaughan. So I kind of
think grunge did rebirth music and kind of

177
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:33.600
brought it to another another forefront.
I think it brought it to the door

178
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:37.240
for a lot of other bands that
I think are really good. I think

179
00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:39.639
it killed her, I said,
I think it killed it. And you're

180
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:45.080
right in a sense of the pretty
and the glam metal and all that.

181
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:48.639
You're right because you know, they
wanted to cater to a different audience.

182
00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:54.879
Because remember metal used to cater generally
as a rule of thumb, all right,

183
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:58.080
you know, nobody said, okay, metal is only for guys.

184
00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:01.840
But the major already the portion of
the people that went to metal concerts and

185
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:05.399
listened to metal, the majority were
not women. They were guys. Back

186
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:11.840
then. Of course the women started
coming. That's it's it's obvious. But

187
00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:16.559
then MTV, the record labels they
wanted, Yeah, they wanted bad boys,

188
00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:20.799
and they gave them the pretty boys, right, and whether you like

189
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:24.639
them or not, a lot of
it wasn't even the idea of the bands

190
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:28.519
you got. You gotta remember,
I remember in an interview, and this

191
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.120
is not from a pretty boy band, this is Journey. I remember hearing

192
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:39.759
Steve, Steve Perry saying he hated
doing music videos. He absolutely hated it,

193
00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:43.519
but that was part of the contract. They had to do it.

194
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:46.720
They had no choice. And a
lot of these other bands, you know,

195
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:50.320
I don't know what happened behind the
scenes. I sure tell you this

196
00:15:50.399 --> 00:15:56.240
though, that any band that that
made it during that ten year time right

197
00:15:56.320 --> 00:15:58.440
of the eighties, they sure made
a whole heck, a lot of them,

198
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:03.879
a lot of them money, and
they sure and they got that other

199
00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:07.639
part that was missing, which was
the females back then. Right now.

200
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:11.960
You may have hated it. I
certainly wasn't in love with that whole movement,

201
00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:15.080
you know. I hated the fact
that they had to wear makeup and

202
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:18.480
they wore all these I mean to
me, there was just clothes. Eat.

203
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:23.919
Why would you wear those clothes?
Especially the Poison album cover where they're

204
00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:30.039
all wearing they all look like women
back then that was ridiculous to me.

205
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.120
Now I do like Poison, I
do like some of their songs, But

206
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:37.799
then I think that that was a
big part of why music started. That

207
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:42.120
type of music started dying off,
and then of course something has to come

208
00:16:42.200 --> 00:16:45.879
up from that from the ashes,
right, something has to come up,

209
00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:51.080
and here comes grunge and a few
of the bands. But where are they

210
00:16:51.120 --> 00:16:55.360
now. I wanted to take a
moment and remind you guys that during the

00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:10.440
absolute most enormous playlist of eighties music. That's right. See the majority of

280
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:15.000
radio stations FM radio stations here in
the United States, they do have catalogs

281
00:22:15.039 --> 00:22:18.400
with over ten thousand songs. But
do you ever hear ten thousand songs on

282
00:22:18.440 --> 00:22:22.839
the radio? No? Do you
hear a rotation of about sixty songs that

283
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:29.599
lay the same the entire day and
they click on a little that's why FM

284
00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:33.319
radio. Yeah, they click on
a little button that says shuffle, and

285
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:37.920
it shuffles those same sixty songs over
and over the entire day, not for

286
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:42.160
weeks, for months, and substations
here in La won't mention who care,

287
00:22:44.200 --> 00:22:47.680
will play the same exact songs for
years, to the point where people go,

288
00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:51.240
really, that band had more than
one song, Yes, it did

289
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:55.480
well. Speaking to crap, it
didn't start off as crap, but the

290
00:22:55.759 --> 00:23:00.880
very famous, the very famous ko
QFM and Los Angeles and w d R

291
00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:03.640
E FM in New York. They
were playing music from underground, independent and

292
00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:08.440
noncommercial rock artists, oftenly referred to
as alternative rock. It was a category

293
00:23:08.440 --> 00:23:14.480
of rock music that it emerged from
independent underground music from the late seventies,

294
00:23:14.559 --> 00:23:18.880
and it started becoming very, very
popular in the eighties thanks to radio stations

295
00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:25.720
such as kr qw DR in New
York. When these stations actually played music

296
00:23:25.799 --> 00:23:27.240
but you wanted to hear something different, you'd go to one of these stations.

297
00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:30.759
You'd hear something very very obscure,
you know, you would go to

298
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:34.680
it. I remember I used to
listen to K rock so much in the

299
00:23:34.880 --> 00:23:40.759
very early eighties because halfway down the
eighties something happened to K rock as well.

300
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:45.039
Yeah, then they became prepped too, and they became oh my good.

301
00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:48.119
And today do you know of any
radio station that you would compare in

302
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:53.559
its richness, in its entertainment and
its playlist to something of that of the

303
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:57.039
eighties, because I don't know of
one, you know what, girls,

304
00:23:57.079 --> 00:24:03.119
Seeing that I reside doubt here in
California. I'm not going to disclose exactly

305
00:24:03.160 --> 00:24:10.119
where I live, but there are
four epic rock radio stations that I listened

306
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:15.839
to daily, and these four stations
kind of take me back to the days

307
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:19.680
of k MET, k n A, C, K West and old k

308
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:26.640
LOS. But I do have to
say they do play some riveting music of

309
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:30.519
the past. They play some mass
kicking news stuff. So I gotta give

310
00:24:30.799 --> 00:24:33.519
the radio stations that I listened to
daily out here, I gotta give them

311
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:37.519
five thumbs up, even though I
only have two hands. Unfortunately, my

312
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:42.480
beloved home in Los Angeles, California. I see radio as as done as

313
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:48.359
a done deal. When I am
in southern California. It's funny because I

314
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:52.480
miss I miss my hometown, but
I miss when I am out there.

315
00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:56.960
I miss the radio stations that I
listened to out here where I reside.

316
00:24:56.000 --> 00:25:02.960
Now it's odd, isn't that.
But it's that vibe set, that electrical

317
00:25:03.119 --> 00:25:08.200
charge that radio kind of hits my
circuit board with. So I kind of

318
00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:14.839
long for that wherever it's coming from. Let me kick this whole alternative genre

319
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:19.079
off, because nineteen eighty three produced
the fifth album of the Great Year of

320
00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:23.599
This It was a good year.
This was the fifth and final studio album

321
00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:30.200
by this English rock band that was
often referred to as soft rock. It

322
00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:33.759
was referred to as alternative, and
it was also referred to as post punk

323
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:38.240
and new wave. So call them
what you want. The Police album with

324
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:45.359
the Synchronicity album. This song the
Synchronicity one their very first song from their

325
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:55.599
album Synchronicity. This is the Police. You were back back to the eighties.

326
00:25:55.799 --> 00:25:59.240
This is Chang of Tuscan win Chang
tonight. We are diving head first

327
00:25:59.799 --> 00:26:08.039
into some of Tuscano and ice favorite
groups of different genres of a time and

328
00:26:08.119 --> 00:26:15.359
a place in radio history in the
eighties. That was The Police with Synchronicity

329
00:26:15.400 --> 00:26:21.160
of the self titled album, A
great three piece band. I mean,

330
00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:26.640
those guys just there was so much
jazz influence in that band. I thought

331
00:26:26.680 --> 00:26:30.119
they were I thought they were a
band that was ahead of their time.

332
00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:34.640
I think that's probably why they were
so short lived. Such a tremendous talent

333
00:26:34.720 --> 00:26:40.640
with the three of them, with
Andy Summers and Sting, Oh my god,

334
00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:47.200
they were just insane. And I
remember catching them in Hollywood Park for

335
00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:52.359
a small gig that they did there. Yea. And oddly enough, a

336
00:26:52.400 --> 00:26:55.440
good friend of mine met Stewart Copeland, the drummer of that band, on

337
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:59.720
several occasions and said, the guy
is just like talking to your next door

338
00:26:59.799 --> 00:27:03.200
Nay. But the one thing he
did notice he couldn't keep his hands still

339
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:07.680
right, so it always seemed like
he was always tapping on the drugs.

340
00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:11.160
This album was great because it included
the hit singles like Every Breath You Take

341
00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:15.240
that was in that album, King
of Pain and Wrapped Around Your Finger and

342
00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:22.039
Synchronicity two is all on this They
were nominated for a total of five Awards,

343
00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:25.599
including Album of the Year. They
won three of those awards in nineteen

344
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:27.720
eighty four Grammy Awards. So that
is my first choice. My friend,

345
00:27:27.759 --> 00:27:32.799
the Synchronicity from the Police. Well, I'm gonna have to hit you with,

346
00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:37.920
of course, my favorite metal.
I love the medal, and I'm

347
00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:41.079
not going to give you my most
favorite band in any order. I'm just

348
00:27:41.079 --> 00:27:45.240
gonna go ahead and skim over some
of my favorite bands of the nineteen eighties,

349
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:49.240
and I've got I've gotta give it
to you to this band right here,

350
00:27:49.599 --> 00:27:53.799
another band out of England. I
thought one of the greatest, most

351
00:27:53.839 --> 00:28:00.720
powerful bands beside Judas Priest, and
that band would be Iron May. Now

352
00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:07.480
Iron Maiden went through some transition early
in the eighties. They gave the boot

353
00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:12.359
to their original lead singer, Paul
Gano, and they hired up the great

354
00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:18.160
talent as in everyone knows Bruce Dickinson, who also is a pilot and flies

355
00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:22.920
them around in their own jet.
I think Maiden kind of was like a

356
00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:29.599
touch of punk, a touch of
hardcore, riveting metal, but it did

357
00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:34.200
have a lot of h I'd say
encyclopedia knowledge. A lot of their songs

358
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:41.440
had to do with ancient history.
Uh, And I always was very intrigued

359
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:48.160
with that style of writing that Steve
Harris would come up with. Some of

360
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:52.079
the artwork is probably scary to a
guy like you. You would think it's

361
00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:59.240
satanic because it's Eddie who was a
corpse. It absolutely especially when they say,

362
00:28:59.240 --> 00:29:00.359
oh, my favorite part of the
concert is going to see Eddie.

363
00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:04.279
Eddie lives bro Yeah, that's a
little bit too. This was me back

364
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:07.680
then before I actually knew anything about
it. Too much for me now things

365
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:11.440
And I'm gonna have to say one
of my favorite albums of theirs back in

366
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:18.359
the eighties is probably Run to the
Hills, a dual guitar band heavy on

367
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:22.200
the bass. Stevie Harris played that
bass almost like it was a guitar.

368
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:26.559
It's like playing lead guitar. The
band has gone through so many changes.

369
00:29:26.599 --> 00:29:30.279
They now have three guitar players.
I don't really understand why. I really

370
00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:33.839
don't think they need that many.
I think they could carry the chord is

371
00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:37.599
if they just went with your original
lineup. Also, they got a new

372
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:45.799
drummer in Nico McBrain. He joined
the band after their other drummer had some

373
00:29:45.880 --> 00:29:49.400
drug problems, and then later on
joined a band called Trust, So I'm

374
00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:55.200
gonna have to say off of that
album coming up next, and the song

375
00:29:55.279 --> 00:30:00.519
we are going to play is twenty
two Akeisha Avenue, So all you street

376
00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:04.720
walkers and ladies of the evening get
your pumps on, because it's about to

377
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:11.160
get really rocked up on the legendary
home of all eighties music. Ka,

378
00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:26.279
it's not a two five know what
place where we Alright, cats and kitties,

379
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:30.240
you are back once again with Tascano
and Chang and we are feeling toasty

380
00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:37.359
and warm? Are we not Tascano
on this chilly evening? We and Shoorn,

381
00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:41.759
We sure are my friend wearing my
beanie and everything staying nice and toasty

382
00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:45.319
in my little studio room here.
It's gonna be great because I also want

383
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:47.599
to keep reminding you guys, if
you just joined us, we were talking

384
00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:51.799
about alternative and metal and we're naming
off a few of the bands that made

385
00:30:51.880 --> 00:30:56.079
our personal list of great songs from
that era. Quick reminder. Further on

386
00:30:56.200 --> 00:31:02.119
during the show, we're gonna be
interviewing Brian Curtis of Bad Attitudes, so

387
00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:04.039
you don't want to miss that.
Stick around. What was one of your

388
00:31:04.079 --> 00:31:07.759
favorite maiden songs or do you even
have a favorite? I do, actually,

389
00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:11.480
I actually like Run to the Hills. I mean, I love the

390
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:15.440
melody, I love the beat.
Well, you know, it's a true

391
00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:22.200
story. It's a political statement against
the genocide of my fellow Native American ancestors

392
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:26.160
and how we were genocided pretty much
out of the United States and out of

393
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:30.920
California. I did not love that, actually, yes, as a matter

394
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:33.680
of fact. Also there's another song
that I'm going to bring out later that

395
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:38.400
speaks of that for another band,
but will wait until it's my turn to

396
00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:44.359
capture the ears of the listeners with
the metal Gods. Well. Coming up

397
00:31:44.440 --> 00:31:49.400
next is a band that once again
fell into the at the end of the

398
00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:55.079
era of I want to say Punk, and it was referred to as folk

399
00:31:55.240 --> 00:31:57.640
pomp. It was referred to as
alternative, of course, and it was

400
00:31:57.680 --> 00:32:04.920
also referred to as new wave.
Now this following band still placed Ada still

401
00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:09.880
Feels some pretty decent sized stadiums and
came up with their single from the album

402
00:32:10.319 --> 00:32:16.960
The Head on the Door, by
a band that our dear and most infamous

403
00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:22.480
Chang just cannot get enough of.
He has their entire cure, he has

404
00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:27.880
their entire collection. And when I
say that this is close to Me from

405
00:32:27.960 --> 00:32:32.720
The Cure. Chang is just smiling. This is back to the eighties radio.

406
00:32:32.799 --> 00:32:37.799
Here's the Cure went close to me. Oh God, I hate that

407
00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:45.359
band. That sucks back to the
eighties radio. Close to Me by the

408
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:49.480
Cure. It was a song by
the English rock band of Course. The

409
00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:52.240
Cure, that was released September nineteen
eighty five, is their second and final

410
00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:57.000
single from their sixth album, The
Head on the Door. Now this wasn't

411
00:32:57.039 --> 00:32:59.880
particularly my favorite album from them.
My favorite album was, of course,

412
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:05.799
where they came up with their very
nostalgic and very very played to death songs

413
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:10.119
like why Can't I Be You?
And Just Like Heaven. The Cure was,

414
00:33:10.559 --> 00:33:15.519
and I told you this before,
it was the very first band that

415
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:22.640
I saw in concert at the Los
Angeles Forum in nineteen eighty seven. Now,

416
00:33:22.039 --> 00:33:28.240
everything about that band makes my ears
vomit for some unknown reason. I

417
00:33:28.359 --> 00:33:31.039
mean the Cure. Really, they
don't cure me of anything. If anything,

418
00:33:31.079 --> 00:33:37.279
they get me sick. You want
to know he looks like I would

419
00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:42.599
have to agree. He may have
a strong resemblance to the Little Puppet from

420
00:33:42.680 --> 00:33:49.200
Saw Yes. However, Bro,
you cannot deny this. The guy can

421
00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:53.759
still sing. He hasn't lost his
voice. He can play, and that

422
00:33:53.960 --> 00:33:58.480
to me just it just speaks volumes. But as long as he can sing

423
00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:01.759
and reach those notes, I'm all
for it. Okay, Oddly enough,

424
00:34:01.839 --> 00:34:07.640
I really didn't consider what he does
singing. I consider it crying and whining.

425
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:15.960
You know what, I'm gonna take
you to front row to see the

426
00:34:15.159 --> 00:34:19.119
Cure. When we come out of
that concert, I'm gonna buy you the

427
00:34:19.239 --> 00:34:22.920
Cure shirt. I'm gonna take some
pictures and post them all over Facebook.

428
00:34:22.039 --> 00:34:28.639
When I get carried out by the
police for yelling volgarities at Robert Smith.

429
00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:31.280
Yes, then you'll see the truest
sence of what I think about that.

430
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:38.079
Either way, you're gonna have to
like give me some Bill Cosby drugs to

431
00:34:38.280 --> 00:34:43.559
drag my ass to go see that
band anywhere. I wouldn't go see that

432
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.079
band if we went to see them
at the Santa Fe Spring Swap. That's

433
00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:51.679
well. See, I think here's
the difference. I am one who enjoys

434
00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:57.320
all kinds of music in their totality, except for one particular genre that we

435
00:34:57.400 --> 00:35:00.079
won't go into right now, because
I just can't see certain certain genres.

436
00:35:00.119 --> 00:35:04.119
I can't take but anyway, and
you, my friend, are a dick

437
00:35:04.199 --> 00:35:06.960
hayter. Yes, as as a
matter of fact, when it comes to

438
00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:12.320
the Cure, I am king dick
hater. I just hate that band.

439
00:35:12.519 --> 00:35:15.400
Okay, what about it if I
said depeche Mode hate them? Okay?

440
00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:22.760
See, so you hate more than
Now I've got another classic, please,

441
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:27.679
band that I loved back in the
eighties. Now this is a band that

442
00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:35.159
I only cared for their EP Get
Your Guns and their very first studio album.

443
00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:38.599
Now this band, you've heard me
say it on many occasions, are

444
00:35:38.719 --> 00:35:45.280
the Godfather's a pretty metal and the
lead singer I've made so much fun Evince

445
00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:52.639
mcmeil through the shows that we've been
doing her back to the eighties. But

446
00:35:52.760 --> 00:35:57.639
I have to give it up to
Motley Crue with the Live Wire album.

447
00:35:58.320 --> 00:36:01.199
I think that was their best album. Pretty hard rock and pretty loud,

448
00:36:01.320 --> 00:36:07.320
pretty chaotic. So you mean they
tell me that you didn't enjoy them when

449
00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:13.119
they sang Doctor, feel Good and
girls Girls Girls, No, No,

450
00:36:13.519 --> 00:36:15.400
no, not at all, no, not at all. You know,

451
00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:22.199
reasons, many reasons, many reasons. Because it was it was I'm gonna

452
00:36:22.239 --> 00:36:23.760
go on, I'm gonna go on
to live and say this it was girl

453
00:36:23.880 --> 00:36:28.440
rock chick rock. Oh my god, now the now. The chang did

454
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:30.719
love the metal chicks. Don't get
me wrong, I had my share of

455
00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:35.199
those metal chicks because I was truly
the bad boy. It was never the

456
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.480
pretty boy. It was rock.
You got to admit it. It was

457
00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:38.960
rock. It wasn't your rock,
but it was rock, and it was

458
00:36:39.079 --> 00:36:42.679
hard rock. It was rock,
and it was good Rod arguing the fact

459
00:36:42.719 --> 00:36:45.519
it was good rock. It was
just it was just not a rock band

460
00:36:45.559 --> 00:36:51.800
that I particularly decided to go continue
to see or put posters of a murderer

461
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:53.920
in my bedroom. Oh no,
I would have ever put posters of them.

462
00:36:54.000 --> 00:36:58.440
But I still enjoyed their music.
But the song that I'm going to

463
00:36:59.639 --> 00:37:04.880
encourage all my changsters gangsters out there
listening to us to hear at k hits

464
00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:08.679
ninety two five. This is off
the self titled album Live Wire, and

465
00:37:08.840 --> 00:37:14.599
this is one of Motley Crue's best
tracks in the eighties. I'm giving it

466
00:37:14.719 --> 00:37:19.480
to you straight. I want to
Scano to stop and listen to this,

467
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:24.440
and then coming up after that,
I've got some rush. But everybody put

468
00:37:24.559 --> 00:37:30.159
your ears, put your ears to
the gears, and Toscano can kiss my

469
00:37:30.400 --> 00:37:36.800
rears. Here is Motley Crue with
Live Wire, and you are with Toscano

470
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:49.199
with Chang. Back to the Eighties
Radio. Welcome back to back to the

471
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:53.119
eighties. That was Motley Crue with
Live Wire off of their self entitled album

472
00:37:53.880 --> 00:38:00.800
back in nineteen eighty two. Now
Toscano in eighty two, you were only

473
00:38:00.920 --> 00:38:04.639
ten years old. That is correct, That's right, I was already.

474
00:38:04.880 --> 00:38:07.239
You were well seasoned, my friend, and many of these things. Probably

475
00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:13.280
my hair was longer than the height
you stood. It's probably eleven or twelve

476
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:16.760
back then. Probably. Thanks for
joining us here and back to the Eighties

477

Friday for our enjoyment and yours. We

that, oh yeah, and and Chang

482
00:38:39.000 --> 00:38:44.000
of course may not like the refrigerator, Perry, But aside from that,

483
00:38:45.639 --> 00:38:52.639
Aside from that, this is the
greatest eighties show extravaganza the world has ever

484
00:38:52.840 --> 00:38:57.920
heard. After the eighties, So
and we're here going to tell us that

485
00:38:58.039 --> 00:39:00.639

495
00:39:43.639 --> 00:39:46.440
thumbs down. We love you anyway, Hey, sign language. Yes,

496
00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:52.480
next group on my list is a
band is a band that you know

497
00:39:52.519 --> 00:39:54.719
what you're gonna like this group,
But at one point, at one point

498
00:39:54.800 --> 00:40:00.400
in the eighties, particularly in nineteen
eighty seven, they were named biggest band

499
00:40:00.960 --> 00:40:10.280
on Earth as well. And that's
no. You can definitely say this band

500
00:40:10.480 --> 00:40:16.639
is alternative rock, post punk,
but This was an American rock band which

501
00:40:16.719 --> 00:40:22.480
first appeared on their nineteen eighty seven
album Document And it was released as the

502
00:40:22.519 --> 00:40:25.519
album's second single in November nineteen eighty
seven, reaching number sixty nine in the

503
00:40:25.679 --> 00:40:31.199
US Billboard Hunt one hundred. But
this song was my favorite from this band.

504
00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:37.519
The band had three letters R E. M. And It's the end

505
00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:42.719
of the world as we know it, and you know what, and I

506
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:46.320
feel fine. This is back to
the eighties. That's great. Starts with

507
00:40:46.599 --> 00:40:52.440
the NERD. First, you are
listening to back to the eighties radio.

508
00:40:52.519 --> 00:40:53.960
That was r EM. It's the
end of the world as we know it,

509
00:40:54.079 --> 00:40:59.559
and of course we all feel fine. The track was known for a

510
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:07.000
quick line stream of consciousness. Rant
Lead singer Michael Stipe claimed that the LB

511
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:10.559
references came from a dream that he
had when he found himself in a party

512
00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:15.800
surrounded by famous people, all who
shared those initials. So there's a point

513
00:41:15.800 --> 00:41:21.360
in the song where he starts mentioning
a bunch of people with the initials LB,

514
00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:27.480
Leonard Bernstein, Leonard Breschev, and
Lenny Bruce, etc. And it's

515
00:41:27.559 --> 00:41:30.360
all because of a dream he had. I think, personally, this is

516
00:41:30.360 --> 00:41:32.679
a band you like. I don't
know. I get that feeling. No,

517
00:41:32.920 --> 00:41:37.079
that you are correct. That is
one band that I did like.

518
00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:43.239
I thought Michael was an excellent songwriter
and an excellent vocalist. I also thought

519
00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:47.519
the guitar player his name escaped me
at the present moment, but my god,

520
00:41:47.599 --> 00:41:52.920
that guy could play just about anything, mandolin, the ukulele. I

521
00:41:53.000 --> 00:41:57.599
mean, there's so many different strings
that he brought into the band, and

522
00:41:57.760 --> 00:42:01.880
some of their recordings, I mean
mine blowing very similar to Tom Petty's a

523
00:42:01.960 --> 00:42:06.840
guitar player, another individual that I
thought was mind blowing. As a matter

524
00:42:06.880 --> 00:42:10.440
of fact, I think I think
Tom Petty's guitar player and r EM's guitar

525
00:42:10.480 --> 00:42:14.159
player the same guy, or they
have the same hair. At least.

526
00:42:14.559 --> 00:42:15.920
I actually thought you were going to
bring in the cure to this and say

527
00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:21.519
that you thought their guitarists sounded close
to r EMS. No, I'm talking

528
00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:28.159
about good bands, not crappy bands. I didn't mention the cure for us.

529
00:42:28.480 --> 00:42:35.079
Okay, Now, this next band
is my number one favorite, the

530
00:42:35.199 --> 00:42:38.039
metal band of all time. It
doesn't matter matter wet year, and that

531
00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:44.519
is the metal gods themselves, Judas
priest I have preached. I don't know

532
00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:47.360
how many times about this band and
what this band means to me on a

533
00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:53.039
personal level, of this band,
their music, their lyrics, their lead

534
00:42:53.199 --> 00:42:58.480
singer, of their sound, their
energy. It got me through some of

535
00:42:58.559 --> 00:43:02.239
the toughest times as a young chang
Back in the eighties. I was doing

536
00:43:02.280 --> 00:43:07.480
a lot of bad things, but
a lot of ass kicking hard rock,

537
00:43:07.960 --> 00:43:14.639
great albums, Sin After Sin,
Rock a Rolla Sad, Wings of Destiny,

538
00:43:15.519 --> 00:43:21.440
Stained Glass. I mean the albums
that they put out. Just I

539
00:43:21.599 --> 00:43:25.079
own every Judas Priest album that has
ever come out, even the ones that

540
00:43:25.719 --> 00:43:30.840
were not too that's rock and rolling, you know what I mean. Like

541
00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:34.760
I've got a turrible lover. I
went to that tour. Wasn't one of

542
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:37.079
my favorites, you know, Rob, If you're listening, I'm sorry.

543
00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:40.599
It got a little weird for me, but I still went and you guys

544
00:43:40.639 --> 00:43:45.000
are still the metal gods now.
This song that I am going to play

545
00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:51.320
next is a song off of Screaming
for Vengeance. That was one of the

546
00:43:51.440 --> 00:43:55.599
first concerts of that band that I
went to go see, and I was

547
00:43:57.039 --> 00:44:00.599
sold from that day on. I
think I saw the Priest a total of

548
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:06.559
seven times in my life, including
the US festival which I think they kicked

549
00:44:06.599 --> 00:44:09.079
the crap out of everybody that played
at the us AT Festival. Now,

550
00:44:09.159 --> 00:44:15.440
this song coming up is called Pain
and Pleasure, and I'm going with these

551
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:22.840
certain songs to get the feeling out
of that young kind of sexual drive with

552
00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:29.880
this song with Pain and Pleasure twenty
two Akisha Avenue from Maiden and Live Wire

553
00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:34.960
from Motley Crue. So let's get
it together. That's getting mettled up,

554
00:44:35.079 --> 00:44:39.559
and let's crank on some Judas priests
with Pain and Pleasure off of the nineteen

555
00:44:39.639 --> 00:44:45.400
eighty two album Screaming for Vengeance.
You keep it locked and loaded to Tuscano

556
00:44:45.440 --> 00:44:50.199
and Chang because we are back to
the eighties and you are getting rocked by

557
00:44:50.280 --> 00:45:07.480
khids now at two five, Okay, welcome back to Back to the eighties

558
00:45:07.599 --> 00:45:13.679
chang Here, Tuscano and Chang.
We are shooting the breeze with the couple

559
00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:17.760
of the great bands that we're talking
about, both from the alternative rock genre

560
00:45:19.079 --> 00:45:24.400
from mister Tuscano and some of my
metal classic favorites from me the chang Here

561
00:45:24.719 --> 00:45:30.960
At Back to the Eighties. Australian
rock band In Excess released their first single

562
00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:36.079
from the nineteen eighty seven album kick
Love. This band needs You Tonight from

563
00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:43.039
Inaccess We come back. We're going
to talk a little bit about I've got

564
00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:47.079
let you know you want to my
guy. This is back to the eighties.

565
00:45:47.400 --> 00:45:52.880
That was Needs You Tonight by in
x As from the nineteen eighty seven

566
00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:59.320
album Kick Now. This was one
of those songs that made them absolutely huge

567
00:46:00.119 --> 00:46:04.920
in the United States. Of course, Let's also being played today in Excess,

568
00:46:05.639 --> 00:46:07.480
another one of those bands. It
was just ahead of his time.

569
00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:13.760
You put that music today and it
just fits, man, it just fits.

570
00:46:14.199 --> 00:46:16.880
It's sad that that band had to
meet its demise the way to do

571
00:46:17.480 --> 00:46:23.079
it did with the loss of life
to Michael Hutchinson, that dynamic lead singer.

572
00:46:23.119 --> 00:46:25.400
I mean, the dude was gorgeous, like he could probably have any

573
00:46:25.519 --> 00:46:30.440
chick in the world back then.
It was just very sad that the way

574
00:46:30.480 --> 00:46:36.440
he passed away and the way that
band ended up having to leave the airwaves.

575
00:46:36.519 --> 00:46:39.559
I know they did get another singer
for a while. I believe it

576
00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:43.400
was on a TV show that they
found this cap, but I don't think

577
00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:46.199
I don't think it grew legs and
carried away too much. Right Well,

578
00:46:46.280 --> 00:46:51.639
I mean, we've we've talked about
this a few times before. You know,

579
00:46:51.719 --> 00:46:54.880
anytime you have a band that makes
a mark and that becomes something,

580
00:46:55.280 --> 00:47:00.679
especially bands like in Excess, and
this song in particular needs you tonight.

581
00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:05.280
It was one of their last songs
recorded for their album, and it would

582
00:47:05.480 --> 00:47:09.480
arguably become the band's signature song.
And then you take out the take out

583
00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:13.639
the singer, the front man,
and then for you to bring in another

584
00:47:14.079 --> 00:47:16.880
singer's what's going to happen. It's
nothing but a recipe for disaster, because

585
00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:22.159
people are always going to be comparing. I mean, very few bands,

586
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:23.960
very few bands that I know of, bro, And one of those that

587
00:47:24.039 --> 00:47:30.119
I'm thinking of is Journey. One
of those is very few bands that can

588
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:37.239
actually get a singer that wasn't the
original and is somewhat acceptable right in this

589
00:47:37.440 --> 00:47:42.360
case, well, in this case
with you know Arnie Pineda of course mostly

590
00:47:42.679 --> 00:47:46.320
yeah, he sings just like Steve
Perry. Then you get a band of

591
00:47:46.800 --> 00:47:52.440
the stature and height of Queen,
and then you put in this kid who

592
00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:57.480
came out from talent content. They're
gonna choose somebody who can sing. What

593
00:47:57.599 --> 00:48:01.199
I'm saying is for you to become
what were It's it's not anymore you lost

594
00:48:01.280 --> 00:48:07.679
that guy. People go see a
Journey because they're so attached to the voice

595
00:48:07.719 --> 00:48:15.199
of Steve Perry and they've got our
Arnold Pinetta and now they've learned to accept

596
00:48:15.280 --> 00:48:20.119
them. You know, if you
had Mark Martego with Queen, I bet

597
00:48:20.239 --> 00:48:24.280
you, I bet you anything,
Queen would be very close to what it

598
00:48:24.440 --> 00:48:30.400
used to be. But I understand, well, you know how you feel

599
00:48:30.719 --> 00:48:35.199
and how a lot about our listeners
may feel when a band that we favored

600
00:48:35.320 --> 00:48:37.960
loses the lead singer and we get
somebody new. Right, it's just not

601
00:48:38.119 --> 00:48:42.199
the same. Right. You know, when you're in a band, whether

602
00:48:42.280 --> 00:48:46.159
you have four or five or six
individuals, that band creates a sound because

603
00:48:46.320 --> 00:48:52.639
everybody's chemistry is right at the same
place when they're making that track. I

604
00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:59.760
think a band's chemistry always changes when
a new member joins the band or another

605
00:48:59.800 --> 00:49:04.199
member leaves that band, whether they
pass away or they just leave, a

606
00:49:04.320 --> 00:49:08.119
little bit of that original essence is
gone. Another one of the bands that

607
00:49:08.480 --> 00:49:15.800
did it in the past was Survivor, and he sounds very sounds very very

608
00:49:15.880 --> 00:49:20.519
similar. So he was accepted and
the band Survivor was known as you know

609
00:49:20.679 --> 00:49:25.320
as Survivor Survivors. The second band
the second front man died of cancer.

610
00:49:25.800 --> 00:49:30.639
The first one stopped because he couldn't
sing anymore. He's still alive, he

611
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:34.199
just can't sing anymore. It's like
Foreigner. I mean, Foreigner got a

612
00:49:34.280 --> 00:49:37.800
new lead singer and he sounds exactly
like the original lead singer. I mean,

613
00:49:37.920 --> 00:49:42.400
it's hard to tell them apart.
You could say the same with Sticks,

614
00:49:42.480 --> 00:49:47.800
But all Sticks did was Tommy is
singing and Dennis de Young left the

615
00:49:47.880 --> 00:49:53.480
band. So it's very similar.
But it's that point, like I made

616
00:49:53.559 --> 00:50:00.320
earlier, is tue tue to the
touch. When a member leaves, a

617
00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:02.880
part of that essence leaves with it. We're going to take a short little

618
00:50:02.880 --> 00:50:06.440
break. This is back to the
eighties Radio. When we come back,

619
00:50:07.039 --> 00:50:14.239

Hello, this is a doctor speaking.

638
00:51:30.840 --> 00:51:35.679
I detect a large amount of social
media usage in your life once. Hence,

639
00:51:35.760 --> 00:51:43.519
I am recommending you go back to
the eighties. If you can't wear

640
00:51:43.559 --> 00:51:52.639
a spandex jumpsuit, what can you
do now? This stock This is the

641
00:51:52.719 --> 00:51:54.960
one and only back to the eighties
radio show. I'm Tiscono from Tisconowin shang

642
00:51:55.400 --> 00:52:00.760
with us today as we just promise, we have Brian Curtis from the awesome

643
00:52:00.880 --> 00:52:05.000
band Bad Attitude. Brian, thank
you so much for taking the time to

644
00:52:05.079 --> 00:52:07.840
be with us here and back to
the eighties radio. Hey, it's my

645
00:52:07.960 --> 00:52:09.960
pleasure, Mario, thanks for having
me. So let me ask you this,

646
00:52:10.119 --> 00:52:15.519
Brian. Are you an introvert,
so somebody who's really reserved and just

647
00:52:15.480 --> 00:52:20.480
kind of shy, or were you
always the life of the party and extroverted?

648
00:52:20.639 --> 00:52:22.239
You know, I'm definitely an extrovert, you know, the life of

649
00:52:22.320 --> 00:52:25.400
the party, kind of the you
know, loud guy in the room.

650
00:52:25.440 --> 00:52:30.000
I guess you could say, yeah, when was it that you knew that

651
00:52:30.079 --> 00:52:34.719
you wanted to be a career entertainer? You know? Mario? I think

652
00:52:34.760 --> 00:52:37.480
that would have to if I were
to think back, it's probably when I

653
00:52:37.679 --> 00:52:40.760
before I was even a teenager,
I saw Kiss on the Midnight Special.

654
00:52:40.880 --> 00:52:45.519
I think It was like around nineteen
seventy eight, right when they first got

655
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:49.760
started. When I saw that,
I knew that's that's what I wanted to

656
00:52:49.840 --> 00:52:52.519
do. You knew that's what you
wanted to do. Yep. Every musician

657
00:52:52.800 --> 00:52:57.239
is always asked, and I'm going
to ask you this one as well,

658
00:52:57.760 --> 00:53:01.400
who their influence was. Now,
you just mentioned Kiss. Was that what

659
00:53:01.639 --> 00:53:06.840
influenced you or what motivated you to
kick this all off? You know?

660
00:53:07.000 --> 00:53:12.480
I think so seeing Kiss on stage
and the energy and the fans and the

661
00:53:12.840 --> 00:53:16.960
excitement that they had and what they
brought just really moved me. And you

662
00:53:17.079 --> 00:53:23.039
know that that pretty much kicked off
my musical career absolutely. As you grow

663
00:53:23.119 --> 00:53:27.239
in the musical career, do you
remember what age it was when you started

664
00:53:27.280 --> 00:53:30.760
your first band. I think I
started my first band at like at age

665
00:53:30.840 --> 00:53:34.320
thirteen, oh, very young.
What instrument did you play back then?

666
00:53:34.440 --> 00:53:37.440
Also? The guitar? I played
guitar, Yeah, I did, sure

667
00:53:37.559 --> 00:53:44.280
did guitar. Was there a particular
musician from even before the rock days that

668
00:53:44.400 --> 00:53:47.719
you really enjoyed or that maybe they
played at home that you really you know

669
00:53:47.840 --> 00:53:52.079
that you really pretty much liked.
Yeah, my dad. My dad played

670
00:53:52.119 --> 00:53:59.719
guitar, and so I had access
to his guitar and amplifier and and microphone

671
00:53:59.760 --> 00:54:01.760
and stuff like that. So you
know, it helped me get started in

672
00:54:01.880 --> 00:54:06.360
my first band. So I had
a couple of instruments and I was able

673
00:54:06.400 --> 00:54:08.679
to have guys over at the house
and we kind of put together, you

674
00:54:08.719 --> 00:54:14.440
know, our first garage band.
Wow. Now when you recall those times,

675
00:54:14.760 --> 00:54:17.119
let's take last year for COVID.
During COVID, I know a lot

676
00:54:17.119 --> 00:54:22.719
of people got very emotional, sentimental
and nostalgic for going back to better times.

677
00:54:22.559 --> 00:54:24.920
Did that happen to you as well, because we know it happened to

678
00:54:25.079 --> 00:54:28.920
us here because that's why we started
this whole back to the eighty stuff.

679
00:54:29.159 --> 00:54:30.920
Yeah. You know, Mario,
it was a really tough time because I'm

680
00:54:30.960 --> 00:54:37.000
still playing out. I'm still playing
music almost every weekend here in Austin,

681
00:54:37.280 --> 00:54:40.639
and if things just came to a
halt, you know, they shut down

682
00:54:40.760 --> 00:54:46.639
the bars, they shut down everything, and our calendars were full, and

683
00:54:47.000 --> 00:54:51.000
it was it was really tough.
You know, a lot a lot of

684
00:54:51.039 --> 00:54:55.519
guys quit playing. We knew that
we would get through this. And now

685
00:54:55.719 --> 00:54:59.320
things are starting well, you know, things opened up for a while,

686
00:54:59.400 --> 00:55:01.360
things are start to tighten back up. A little bit now, But um

687
00:55:02.159 --> 00:55:07.039
we're out there playing and entertaining folks, and um, I wouldn't have it

688
00:55:07.079 --> 00:55:09.559
any other way. I'm gonna gonna
play and as long as I possibly can,

689
00:55:10.079 --> 00:55:15.039
I love entertaining people. That's great
to hear. We need to be

690
00:55:15.239 --> 00:55:17.039
entertained in times like this. Talk
to us a little bit about now,

691
00:55:17.199 --> 00:55:21.440
bad attitude. How did that all
start? Well, that's a really good

692
00:55:21.519 --> 00:55:24.400
question. Also, you know,
Um, I was out in Hollywood.

693
00:55:24.440 --> 00:55:30.679
I went to the Musicians Institute to
the Guitar g I T Program, and

694
00:55:31.000 --> 00:55:34.320
I was in a you know,
I was in a couple of Hollywood rock

695
00:55:34.400 --> 00:55:39.440
bands, and there was one particular
band that I guess we'll we'll remain nameless,

696
00:55:39.920 --> 00:55:44.360
let's say for now. And you
know, we had some disagreements about

697
00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:47.440
some stupid band stuff and they ended
up kicking me out of the band and

698
00:55:47.719 --> 00:55:52.440
they said it was because I had
a bad attitude. So basically, so

699
00:55:52.679 --> 00:55:57.079
basically, I'm like, hey,
you know what, I'm gonna show them,

700
00:55:57.199 --> 00:56:00.760
And I formed my own band and
call it a bad attitude. Oh

701
00:56:00.880 --> 00:56:06.559
yes, heavy metal, Hollywood express
genre, somebody that fought the battle,

702
00:56:06.960 --> 00:56:10.199
lived the light, sex, drugs, rock and roll, long hair,

703
00:56:10.920 --> 00:56:17.639
Aquanette, when FM radio kicked ass, when Tower Records was the place.

704
00:56:19.559 --> 00:56:24.760
Yea sunset Boulevard, brother, Sometimes, my friend, I can actually close

705
00:56:24.880 --> 00:56:31.000
my eyes. I can sense and
smell everything about Hollywood Boulevard on a Saturday

706
00:56:31.159 --> 00:56:37.280
night past nine o'clock. The cars, the traffic, the breeze at sunset

707
00:56:37.320 --> 00:56:43.119
would let loose, the feel of
the movement of the street, the lines

708
00:56:43.199 --> 00:56:45.960
at ghazaries, the lines at the
Whiskey, the lines at the Roxy,

709
00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:51.800
the lines to get into the rainbowl. What changes described? I had no

710
00:56:51.920 --> 00:56:57.760
idea because I was but a mere
teen in the eighties. Well you just

711
00:56:57.920 --> 00:57:00.440
described. He just described it perfect. Now is that what it was like

712
00:57:00.800 --> 00:57:05.519
to the tea? Absolutely? And
we were standing we were we were a

713
00:57:05.599 --> 00:57:08.639
bunch of the guys standing out there
handing out tickets to our shows and demos,

714
00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:13.960
and and we were out there doing
it. Man, just like what

715
00:57:14.079 --> 00:57:17.639
he just said. So now you
mentioned that when you started bad Attitude,

716
00:57:17.719 --> 00:57:23.079
it all came about because a certain
unnamed band, will say, claimed that

717
00:57:23.280 --> 00:57:30.320
you had a bad attitude. Was
this, I hope it was challenge,

718
00:57:30.320 --> 00:57:34.639
as I was gonna say. Was
this a band that chang himself challenged to

719
00:57:34.800 --> 00:57:39.199
a duel back in the eighties because
they because Axel Rose flicked a cigarette at

720
00:57:39.239 --> 00:57:45.079
his shoe. True story, true
story. I'm gonna leave those guys out

721
00:57:45.119 --> 00:57:47.159
of this. Okay, all right, no problems. We're all buddies again.

722
00:57:47.320 --> 00:57:52.039
Oh okay, when you formed Bad
Attitude. Do you remember exactly the

723
00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:57.280
year it was? I think it
was nineteen eighty seven? Nine, great

724
00:57:57.360 --> 00:58:00.320
year, great years. A matter
of fact, that's my favorite year.

725
00:58:00.679 --> 00:58:02.599
A lot of cool things happened in
eighteen eighty seven. So you start the

726
00:58:02.679 --> 00:58:07.800
band, did you immediately know who
you were going to form the band with?

727
00:58:07.239 --> 00:58:13.039
Oh? Yeah, absolutely, Mario
Um I had met a drummer through

728
00:58:13.079 --> 00:58:15.360
a friend, through you know,
a mutual friend of mine. Um.

729
00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:19.920
Like I said, I was going
to the Musician's Institute, So there was

730
00:58:20.000 --> 00:58:22.039
a there was a buddy of mine
that was a great guitar player. And

731
00:58:22.159 --> 00:58:25.719
this a whole other story. Actually, before I moved to Hollywood, I

732
00:58:25.840 --> 00:58:30.119
was playing in a top forty band
and we traveled. We traveled all over

733
00:58:30.159 --> 00:58:34.920
the United States, and we were
up in Anchorage, Alaska playing Oh Wow.

734
00:58:35.320 --> 00:58:37.960
And I met a guy up there
named Lonnie Meade, and we ran

735
00:58:38.079 --> 00:58:42.840
into each other at musicians Institute and
He's like hey, man, I remember

736
00:58:42.920 --> 00:58:47.480
you from Anchorage, and so we
became buddies again and m and he played

737
00:58:47.519 --> 00:58:52.119
guitar. He was great guitar player. So he was one of the original

738
00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:57.320
members of Bad Attitude. Um My
drummer Ian Flanders. He was a good

739
00:58:57.400 --> 00:59:00.400
friend of mine that that I met
probably I think my second night in town

740
00:59:00.519 --> 00:59:07.599
through another friend of mine. We
met Frank Rich through through those same guys

741
00:59:07.880 --> 00:59:10.079
are our bass player, and I
mean it was just a you know,

742
00:59:10.199 --> 00:59:14.880
we didn't even hold audition. We
knew right away that we had we had

743
00:59:14.920 --> 00:59:19.480
the perfect four guys and it just
clicked right from the very beginning. Joining

744
00:59:19.559 --> 00:59:22.960
a band is like a band of
brotherhood. It becomes like a gang a

745
00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:29.599
scenario akick. You know, you
become one with each other. And I

746
00:59:29.760 --> 00:59:37.039
think that's because the souls connect musically
emotionally, so you feel kinship like a

747
00:59:37.320 --> 00:59:40.880
blood kind of personal bond relations.
So when you break out in the band,

748
00:59:42.519 --> 00:59:46.119
the music that you put out and
the image you portray is an expression

749
00:59:46.199 --> 00:59:50.559
of what you guys feel as a
family. You're all on the same level.

750
00:59:51.039 --> 00:59:53.679
You want to go full throttle,
push it out there. And that's

751
00:59:53.719 --> 01:00:00.880
why I always think the long haired
metal connection is deep. Oh yeah,

752
01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:04.079
absolutely. I mean we knew from
the very first time that we had our

753
01:00:04.199 --> 01:00:07.519
very first rehearsal, that that that
this was gonna be something good. And

754
01:00:07.639 --> 01:00:10.599
then you know, we rehearsed our
butts off and our When we did our

755
01:00:10.679 --> 01:00:15.159
first show and we saw the reaction
from the fans, we knew that we

756
01:00:15.280 --> 01:00:17.760
had something and we just and we
just went for it from there. It

757
01:00:17.840 --> 01:00:22.159
was it was definitely definitely a brotherhood. Like you're saying, where was your

758
01:00:22.199 --> 01:00:29.159
first show? The first The first
show was at the Troubadour, nice beautiful

759
01:00:29.159 --> 01:00:32.280
place, remember Doug Weston's true.
Yeah, I mean you go in there

760
01:00:32.320 --> 01:00:35.920
and it's like, when the lights
are on, it looks like the cheap

761
01:00:36.039 --> 01:00:39.320
library with paneling. You know,
when you have read all over you have

762
01:00:39.519 --> 01:00:45.079
baseball bleachers. You feel where I'm
going with this brand. But then at

763
01:00:45.199 --> 01:00:49.960
night it's magnetic. The bar brings
life, the seating comes to life.

764
01:00:50.360 --> 01:00:55.000
It's almost like you're in your own
neighborhood. Personal arena kind of gives you

765
01:00:55.119 --> 01:01:00.440
the vibe of like being a live
stand up comic or something of Simon and

766
01:01:00.559 --> 01:01:05.719
Guardfuncle. It's you, the faked
brick wall and all the people out there

767
01:01:06.360 --> 01:01:09.679
just wanting to get into you and
grab that vibe. Right and if you

768
01:01:09.960 --> 01:01:15.039
um and for the fans out there, if you go to YouTube and you

769
01:01:15.199 --> 01:01:20.599
check and you and you put in
bad attitude live at the Roxy, dude,

770
01:01:20.920 --> 01:01:24.079
you're gonna you're gonna see some great
live videos from that era. I

771
01:01:24.159 --> 01:01:28.199
mean, we used to take all
of our you know, all of our

772
01:01:28.239 --> 01:01:30.519
tickets. Instead of selling our tickets, we would give them away to all

773
01:01:30.559 --> 01:01:37.039
the hot chicks on the street.
Yeah's assume that's how it works. Brother,

774
01:01:37.119 --> 01:01:38.840
I was there, sona. I
used to go, hey, man,

775
01:01:38.920 --> 01:01:42.000
give me a couple of tickets,
man, and there would be they

776
01:01:42.079 --> 01:01:44.440
look at me like, you're gonna
come in here and bash heads and get

777
01:01:44.519 --> 01:01:49.639
chicks. Metal was all about the
connection female or male. Correct my brother,

778
01:01:49.920 --> 01:01:52.239
Oh that's right. We would sell
our tickets to the guys and give

779
01:01:52.320 --> 01:01:55.880
them to the girls. Yes,
you read bastards. And he sold meat

780
01:01:55.920 --> 01:02:00.320
tickets because I was so damn horny
back there. In the Baby seven.

781
01:02:00.639 --> 01:02:04.440
You talked a little bit before about
family and how everybody became like a family.

782
01:02:04.800 --> 01:02:07.760
Now, going back to the real
family, did did family play a

783
01:02:07.920 --> 01:02:14.519
role in you forming the band or
getting maybe the courage to go ahead and

784
01:02:14.599 --> 01:02:17.280
start and remain you know, in
what you wanted to do well, you

785
01:02:17.360 --> 01:02:21.280
know, Mario, absolutely. You
know, my family has always been very

786
01:02:21.360 --> 01:02:24.159
supportive. My parents bought me my
first guitar and amp. You know,

787
01:02:24.199 --> 01:02:28.440
I was telling you that a minute
ago about my dad playing guitar, and

788
01:02:28.559 --> 01:02:30.360
they helped me along the way,
of course, especially when I when I

789
01:02:30.480 --> 01:02:35.280
when I first moved out to Hollywood, and uh, but I have to

790
01:02:35.360 --> 01:02:37.679
say, you know, my wife
has been my biggest supporter. You know,

791
01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:42.719
she's been with me since the Bad
Attitude days and she's always supported me.

792
01:02:43.360 --> 01:02:45.400
She still comes to all my gigs
every weekend with me. You know,

793
01:02:45.559 --> 01:02:51.920
she's definitely, she's definitely my biggest
fan. And your first album is

794
01:02:51.960 --> 01:02:55.159
called Bad Attitude as well, correct, that's it. So I heard a

795
01:02:55.280 --> 01:03:00.920
song that now I'm, like I
said before, I'm totally the opposite of

796
01:03:00.039 --> 01:03:06.000
Chang in some things. And one
of those things I do, I do

797
01:03:06.280 --> 01:03:10.360
love the ballads. And that's right. You have a song called what About

798
01:03:10.440 --> 01:03:15.679
You Girl, which we're gonna hear
it in a little while, and it's

799
01:03:15.719 --> 01:03:20.559
it's a tract that is very reminiscent
of the days. I feel that it

800
01:03:20.679 --> 01:03:23.360
has a mix between uh, you
know, the poison. It's got a

801
01:03:23.400 --> 01:03:28.760
little flavor of poison, a little
flavor of Motley Crue. It's got you

802
01:03:28.840 --> 01:03:31.320
know, it's got the what I
would call it's got the eighties flavor.

803
01:03:31.760 --> 01:03:35.599
Okay, thank you, Yeah,
you know what I mean. Now,

804
01:03:35.679 --> 01:03:39.519
this is just the back end to
my actual question, the music that we

805
01:03:39.639 --> 01:03:45.400
have today. How is it that
a band from the eighties can bring back

806
01:03:45.840 --> 01:03:52.880
that same melody, that same field, that same eighties flavor in twenty twenty

807
01:03:52.920 --> 01:03:55.920
one. Can that be done?
Well? You know, there's a lot

808
01:03:55.960 --> 01:04:00.320
of good music that's still coming out
today. But you know, yes,

809
01:04:00.639 --> 01:04:02.719
I just don't think that they you
know, they just don't buy them like

810
01:04:02.920 --> 01:04:05.920
like we did back in the eighties
anymore. I don't know, It's that's

811
01:04:05.960 --> 01:04:10.000
a that's a really tough question,
you know, like like Chang was saying,

812
01:04:10.199 --> 01:04:13.320
you know, um, I don't
want to bash on new music,

813
01:04:13.360 --> 01:04:15.280
because there's a lot of music out
there that I that I really do like.

814
01:04:16.039 --> 01:04:21.280
But um, you know, I'm
not hearing anything like what like like

815
01:04:21.559 --> 01:04:27.400
the Rat, the Dock and the
Motley Crew, the attitude, the stuff

816
01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:30.119
that we did back then. It
was just a different time. You know.

817
01:04:30.159 --> 01:04:33.000
I don't know if it would go
over today if a new band did

818
01:04:33.039 --> 01:04:36.800
it. I think that's why people
want to go back and hear and hear

819
01:04:36.880 --> 01:04:41.119
what we did, you know,
because they meant a lot of people missed

820
01:04:41.199 --> 01:04:45.119
that time they were they weren't around
then, and to hear it now,

821
01:04:45.280 --> 01:04:47.320
it's it's just not the same as
as you know, as it was back

822
01:04:47.360 --> 01:04:49.840
then. I guess you know,
you meet a you meet a very good

823
01:04:49.880 --> 01:04:55.360
point change. We've talked about those
many many times that even you know,

824
01:04:55.519 --> 01:04:59.320
a lot of our listeners, believe
it or not, We've got like fifteen

825
01:04:59.400 --> 01:05:03.559
percent of our listeners are under the
age of thirty, and these are people

826
01:05:03.639 --> 01:05:09.039
that have no idea what it was
to live in the eighties. They're hearing

827
01:05:09.119 --> 01:05:12.519
this music and a lot of the
music and maybe you'll correct me if I'm

828
01:05:12.559 --> 01:05:15.360
wrong, but a lot of the
music from the eighties is still relevant today,

829
01:05:16.239 --> 01:05:26.679
both in lyrics also in music.
You're listening to back to the eighties

830
01:05:42.760 --> 01:05:51.360
so much times gone by, so
much needs to visit the womp sudden girl,

831
01:05:53.039 --> 01:06:00.760

head. Must heard you were a

lony tears. She cried a boat I

01:06:08.760 --> 01:06:15.599
broke your heart. If I can
do it, a girl, I never

01:06:15.320 --> 01:06:24.199

851
01:09:24.399 --> 01:09:51.560
It's been a love time. Ride
will you to never Girl Time Girl Tonight.

852
01:10:04.720 --> 01:10:08.600
This is one I'm only back to
the eighties. I'm Chiscano. We

853
01:10:08.720 --> 01:10:12.279
are here with Brian Curtis from Bad
Attitude, and this is a track that

854
01:10:12.359 --> 01:10:16.399
it has turned out to be my
favorite track from at least five or six

855
01:10:16.479 --> 01:10:19.600
that I've heard so far. Talk
to me a little bit about the ballad

856
01:10:19.840 --> 01:10:24.079
that we just heard. Well,
thanks a lot for the compliments there,

857
01:10:24.199 --> 01:10:29.479
Mario, Um that could that song
was was written, you know, about

858
01:10:29.520 --> 01:10:31.479
about an old girlfriend. But you
know, I mean, I guess you

859
01:10:31.560 --> 01:10:36.039
can probably you can tell that just
lyric that's I mean, that's what it's

860
01:10:36.079 --> 01:10:40.680
all about. That's what inspires us
to write a lot of these a lot

861
01:10:40.720 --> 01:10:45.039
of these songs that we write as
romance, heartache, good time. You

862
01:10:45.119 --> 01:10:50.600
know you got songs about times at
times? Hey, Brian, you know

863
01:10:50.760 --> 01:10:56.840
what surprises me. We don't get
that same feel for music today, Okay,

864
01:10:57.119 --> 01:10:59.880
I'm not. This is my opinion. A lot of the lyrics were

865
01:11:00.000 --> 01:11:02.800
not written by the bands themselves,
and if they are, they've never lived

866
01:11:02.840 --> 01:11:08.239
through them. And that is the
point, you know, that is if

867
01:11:08.279 --> 01:11:11.279
you look at the if you look
at the credits on a lot of songs,

868
01:11:11.880 --> 01:11:15.960
A lot of times people get record
deals and you know they don't they're

869
01:11:15.000 --> 01:11:18.159
not even the real song writer.
I mean a lot a lot of people

870
01:11:18.239 --> 01:11:23.119
can pull it off and you think
that they that they lived these experiences.

871
01:11:23.239 --> 01:11:26.960
But uh, you know all the
songs that we wrote that I wrote,

872
01:11:27.359 --> 01:11:31.279
those those were we wrote those songs, and then I wrote all those lyrics,

873
01:11:31.319 --> 01:11:36.000
and that those are true experiences that
we exactly those songs that you wrote

874
01:11:36.720 --> 01:11:41.239
and the heart felt that came out
with you put those lyrics to music,

875
01:11:41.359 --> 01:11:45.479
and all of you were on the
same page but living that same vibe and

876
01:11:45.560 --> 01:11:49.159
that same feeling to whatever instrument you
portrayed you, you know, with the

877
01:11:49.279 --> 01:11:54.439
vocals, and you can all understand
that. You know, great songs and

878
01:11:54.600 --> 01:12:00.239
good songs, memorable songs are always
those of the true hearts. The more

879
01:12:00.399 --> 01:12:05.479
you come from your own heart and
your own experience is going to captivate more

880
01:12:05.520 --> 01:12:11.039
and more people in such a magnitude
in a way that you are going to

881
01:12:11.119 --> 01:12:16.720
be immortal forever. Every one of
our songs is it evolved from a true

882
01:12:16.800 --> 01:12:20.119
story. There's a story behind every
one of our songs. You know,

883
01:12:20.680 --> 01:12:26.479
We've got a song called I Won't
settle for nothing less I won't settle for

884
01:12:26.600 --> 01:12:30.279
second best. You know, we've
got what about you girl, We've got

885
01:12:30.319 --> 01:12:33.520
another one hanging on you know,
I keep hanging onto your love. We've

886
01:12:33.600 --> 01:12:36.760
got another one, and I'm just
you know, action, I want some

887
01:12:36.880 --> 01:12:42.920
action. You know. Every song
has has a story behind it. You've

888
01:12:42.960 --> 01:12:46.039
got songs like never Gonna Let You
Go. You've got songs like I'm the

889
01:12:46.159 --> 01:12:49.840
Only One for you. These are
songs that we really like. I told

890
01:12:49.880 --> 01:12:56.840
you in our LinkedIn brief conversation,
it's stuff that we kind of need again.

891
01:12:57.359 --> 01:12:59.239
And well, I hope so,
and I hope they go out and

892
01:12:59.319 --> 01:13:03.800
all they all they love our songs
and they tell all their friends and let's

893
01:13:03.840 --> 01:13:08.079
get this going. Let's let's bring
this music back. Like you guys said

894
01:13:08.159 --> 01:13:12.039
this, these are songs that people
aren't writing songs like this anymore. And

895
01:13:12.119 --> 01:13:15.439
these are all, hey, ladies, these songs were all inspired by y'all.

896
01:13:15.560 --> 01:13:18.600
So yeah, I mean there,
you know, you look at the

897
01:13:18.840 --> 01:13:23.439
icons that we grew up with,
you know, and you look at the

898
01:13:23.640 --> 01:13:26.760
family of rock and roll, and
you know it came from Great Britain,

899
01:13:26.800 --> 01:13:29.479
it came from here, It came
from there. We had eight great bands

900
01:13:29.560 --> 01:13:35.479
like ACDC, loudness, the magnitude
of earthquake music that we as we sit

901
01:13:35.560 --> 01:13:40.680
here and talk as one, the
music that we created from Hollywood in southern

902
01:13:40.760 --> 01:13:46.319
California, of bands like Journey,
the explosion of rock and roll, I

903
01:13:46.479 --> 01:13:53.159
think was something greater than any type
of leadership that we've ever seen politically or

904
01:13:53.760 --> 01:13:59.880
socially. It's an explosion of love, understanding, acceptance, and unify.

905
01:14:00.279 --> 01:14:03.239
And I think if we all captivated
to where we were at in the eighties,

906
01:14:03.359 --> 01:14:08.159
my brother, we would have a
much better world and a much better

907
01:14:08.239 --> 01:14:12.119
country. That's that's some pretty heavy
stuff there, Chang. That's great.

908
01:14:12.199 --> 01:14:14.840
That's that's you know, there was
a lot of truth to what you're saying

909
01:14:14.880 --> 01:14:17.680
there. You know that those those
were great times, and you know,

910
01:14:17.880 --> 01:14:23.000
I wish you know, I wouldn't
trade I wouldn't trade anything of what we

911
01:14:23.119 --> 01:14:25.920
did. I have no regrets.
We we we lived it, We did

912
01:14:25.960 --> 01:14:30.119
it. Those were great times.
Yes, So if time travel were possible,

913
01:14:30.239 --> 01:14:33.800
okay, and you could go back
to the eighties for a time,

914
01:14:34.319 --> 01:14:39.279
what would you do? I would
definitely bang on some more record company doors

915
01:14:39.800 --> 01:14:42.399
and you know, maybe just try
a little bit harder. I guess,

916
01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:45.359
you know, it's a really tough
business. You know, like I said

917
01:14:45.399 --> 01:14:48.680
a second ago, we we we
we tried our best. We we we

918
01:14:48.960 --> 01:14:53.159
we did it. We play some
great shows and you know we have a

919
01:14:53.199 --> 01:14:56.600
lot of great memories and you know, really guys, you know, well

920
01:14:56.640 --> 01:15:00.119
have no regrets. Are you still
singing with the band or what? So?

921
01:15:00.199 --> 01:15:02.840
Andy, what's going on with bad
attitude now? Well, you know,

922
01:15:03.399 --> 01:15:06.720
I'm I'm still in touch with all
the with all the guys on Facebook

923
01:15:06.760 --> 01:15:09.880
and everything. We're all, you
know, go back out. We're still

924
01:15:09.920 --> 01:15:14.199
out in California. One guy's down
in Houston, Lonnie's down in Houston.

925
01:15:14.319 --> 01:15:17.760
I'm here in Austin. Um.
We you know, we can get together.

926
01:15:17.880 --> 01:15:21.039
I see those guys whenever I can, whenever I'm out in California.

927
01:15:21.640 --> 01:15:26.520
And uh, but we you know, we haven't been doing any any concerts

928
01:15:26.640 --> 01:15:30.319
or anything. But we're really excited
about this. You know this uh lost

929
01:15:30.359 --> 01:15:34.039
track of the eighties episode that's coming
out and and being on your show of

930
01:15:34.159 --> 01:15:39.079
course tonight, and uh, you
know, you never know what's gonna happen.

931
01:15:39.119 --> 01:15:41.600
You know, things can get sparked
back up. We might end up

932
01:15:41.640 --> 01:15:44.359
on one of those uh one of
those rock cruises. You know, they

933
01:15:44.439 --> 01:15:47.319
got the right right, Bran.
On a side note, what's your favorite

934
01:15:47.479 --> 01:15:53.159
song of all time? Do you
have a favorite? Oh, my goodness,

935
01:15:53.279 --> 01:15:56.560
that's that's a tough question. Could
be your own well, the rock

936
01:15:56.680 --> 01:16:05.279
in Roll All Night Day, the
Live that life. We of the eighties

937
01:16:05.359 --> 01:16:10.279
did live that life. We way
beyond seventy eight when that track came out.

938
01:16:10.720 --> 01:16:14.359
Brian, it's been great to have
you on the show. I'm hoping

939
01:16:14.840 --> 01:16:20.359
for the best. I really want
to see Bad Attitude make a tour around

940
01:16:20.439 --> 01:16:26.960
southern California one of these days,
because you can rest assure you'll have some

Definitely, let's try to make it
a plan. But in the meantime,

963
01:17:54.600 --> 01:17:58.119
this is back to the eighties radio. You've heard Brian Curtis bad Attitude.

964
01:17:58.399 --> 01:18:08.600
Hey, Brian, meddle up,
brother, who welcome eties fans. I

965
01:18:08.800 --> 01:18:16.279
have been expecting you. You no
longer need to listen to any other podcast.

966
01:18:18.439 --> 01:18:25.920
You won't the eighties, don't you? The longing for it is swelling.

967
01:18:26.239 --> 01:18:33.079
You now feel the memories coming to
you and listen to back to the

968
01:18:33.279 --> 01:18:44.760
Eighties. Give in to nostalgia.
With each passing moment, you make yourself

969
01:18:45.359 --> 01:18:55.520
bar of an Eighties fan. It
is unavoidable. It is your destiny.

970
01:18:57.319 --> 01:19:08.319
You don't know the power back to
the eighties. You like your childhood now

971
01:19:09.640 --> 01:19:17.439
man, Now back to good,
wholesome, politically correct entertainment. Oops,

972
01:19:17.800 --> 01:19:28.000
wrong station. Now back to the
eighties with Toscano and Chang. Welcome back

973
01:19:28.039 --> 01:19:30.720
to Back to the Eighties Chang.
Here of Toscano and Chang, we are

974
01:19:30.800 --> 01:19:33.880
going through a list of some of
our favorite artists back in the eighties.

975
01:19:34.760 --> 01:19:41.760
I'm gonna hit you with this next
lead singer. He sang with a band

976
01:19:42.159 --> 01:19:46.239
named Rainbow, which Rainbow had so
many different singers between the seventies and the

977
01:19:46.359 --> 01:19:51.560
eighties, I'd say probably at least
four lead singers. This lead singer also

978
01:19:51.760 --> 01:20:00.720
fronted Black Sabbath during the Heaven and
Hell and Mob Rules rain This individual went

979
01:20:00.760 --> 01:20:04.920
out and started his own band and
named it after his own name. I'm

980
01:20:04.960 --> 01:20:12.039
talking about the late Great Rodney James
Deal. You cannot go wrong with with

981
01:20:12.359 --> 01:20:18.720
the cranking on anything from Deal.
I remember when he debuted with the Rainbow

982
01:20:18.880 --> 01:20:23.960
and he came out with the Man
on the Silver Mountain. I mean,

983
01:20:24.239 --> 01:20:28.159
my god, the way he just
screamed that thing. It was it was

984
01:20:28.239 --> 01:20:31.840
almost like going to church for a
hard rocker. Then when he came out

985
01:20:31.920 --> 01:20:35.760
with Sabbath, I mean, he
nailed it. I've always kind of liked

986
01:20:36.720 --> 01:20:42.079
the Deo Sabbath a little bit over
the Azzy Sabbath, but I do love

987
01:20:42.159 --> 01:20:45.119
the Azzi Sabbath and a lot of
praise because Sabbath is another band, like

988
01:20:45.239 --> 01:20:53.840
Judas Priest, that started the footwork
to create what we know is heavy metal.

989
01:20:54.920 --> 01:21:00.680
But I thought Deal had a better
vocal range than Ozzy, but Ozzi

990
01:21:00.760 --> 01:21:05.880
could play the harp. Now Deal
sad that he passed away of cancer,

991
01:21:08.039 --> 01:21:11.920
and he wasn't even really that old. I was very fortunate to meet Ronnie

992
01:21:12.039 --> 01:21:15.239
James Deal and have a conversation with
him. When we were watching Tesla.

993
01:21:15.359 --> 01:21:21.000
We went backstage and me and my
buddies from Wicked Relish got to sit back

994
01:21:21.079 --> 01:21:28.119
there and we had a very long
conversation with Dio and Tesla with Rudy Sarzo,

995
01:21:28.319 --> 01:21:31.479
other other musicians. I'm not going
to give their names, but very

996
01:21:31.680 --> 01:21:36.079
enlightening talking to Deal. A lot
of people would think that, you know,

997
01:21:36.720 --> 01:21:40.960
when he gave he gave the heavy
metal horns, a lot of people

998
01:21:41.079 --> 01:21:44.600
say that is a sign of the
devil, when it's not, in fact

999
01:21:44.840 --> 01:21:47.680
at all a sign of the devil. It is a religious sign of that

1000
01:21:48.159 --> 01:21:53.560
his grandmother used to give him to
ward off evil spirits. Right, It's

1001
01:21:53.560 --> 01:21:56.359
an Italian thing. And I can
tell you that first then, because my

1002
01:21:56.479 --> 01:21:59.760
dad used to do that all the
time. My grandparents used to do that

1003
01:21:59.800 --> 01:22:03.319
a time. That's from very very
that comes from old tradition in Italy.

1004
01:22:04.279 --> 01:22:06.840
You know, when they get like
a bad look, you know, they

1005
01:22:06.880 --> 01:22:12.000
would they would call it the evil
eye. And if somebody looked at you

1006
01:22:12.039 --> 01:22:14.439
in a bad way, they gave
you the evil lie. They would think

1007
01:22:14.520 --> 01:22:15.920
that, you know, that's bad
luck coming towards you, so they'd give

1008
01:22:16.000 --> 01:22:23.239
that horn sign in rebuke of that
evil lie. So traditions, But you're

1009
01:22:23.319 --> 01:22:27.359
right, absolutely right about that,
and Deal, Oh my gosh, Dio

1010
01:22:27.439 --> 01:22:30.640
is one of my favorites. I
love. I didn't like the album art

1011
01:22:30.840 --> 01:22:34.800
just because I was more a little
bit more on the religious side. So

1012
01:22:34.960 --> 01:22:39.199
it did. It did kind of
scare me in away some of their stuff.

1013
01:22:39.399 --> 01:22:42.399
But man, I couldn't. I
couldn't avoid Deal because Dio, to

1014
01:22:42.520 --> 01:22:46.520
me, his voice was just so
powerful, so attractive, and I love

1015
01:22:46.640 --> 01:22:50.760
Deal. Oh yeah. I saw
Deal with Sabbath twice, and I saw

1016
01:22:50.880 --> 01:22:58.680
Deal twice on his solo tours.
And I gotta say, probably the best

1017
01:22:58.800 --> 01:23:03.520
memory I have of to see Deal
was nineteen. I want to say eighty.

1018
01:23:04.119 --> 01:23:08.760
I want to say eighty four.
I went with my best friend who

1019
01:23:08.840 --> 01:23:11.960
no longer is alive, Raymie Barrows. I God rest your soul, my

1020
01:23:12.039 --> 01:23:15.840
brother, I will see you again. We both went to that concert was

1021
01:23:15.920 --> 01:23:20.680
Raymie's birthday. We had front row
seats and we got all the way up

1022
01:23:21.119 --> 01:23:25.439
to the little barricade that was you
know, was right before the stage,

1023
01:23:26.279 --> 01:23:29.680
right before the stage with the guys
in the yellow jackets, and I'll never

1024
01:23:29.800 --> 01:23:34.159
forget Me and my buddy were singing
along with Deal, and Deal pointed at

1025
01:23:34.199 --> 01:23:38.720
my best friend and he pointed at
him. He did the fifth and then

1026
01:23:38.760 --> 01:23:42.880
he did the Devil Horns and I
was I was just totally blown away.

1027
01:23:42.920 --> 01:23:44.680
And I looked at my buddy and
I was like, hey, dude,

1028
01:23:44.760 --> 01:23:48.079
Deal Deal saw you. He you
know, you made eye contact with him,

1029
01:23:48.119 --> 01:23:49.680
and he was like, yeah,
that was great. What do you

1030
01:23:50.079 --> 01:23:54.079
Why do you think that is?
I said, because he's short and you're

1031
01:23:54.199 --> 01:23:58.600
short. You're probably the two shortest
mothers in this whole place, so he

1032
01:23:58.760 --> 01:24:01.279
identified with you. But yeah,
yeah, he was a great show man

1033
01:24:01.560 --> 01:24:05.239
to be there with my best friend, and then a couple of laters to

1034
01:24:05.359 --> 01:24:12.960
lose my best friend. Emotions.
I get very emotional when I crank on

1035
01:24:13.079 --> 01:24:16.000
any kind of music from Deal.
It takes me back to that time that

1036
01:24:16.079 --> 01:24:19.399
I got to spend with my best
friend who's no longer here. But tonight,

1037
01:24:20.239 --> 01:24:26.840
I am going to play a song
not from his solo project, but

1038
01:24:27.199 --> 01:24:32.279
from the number one album in nineteen
eighty and that is Heaven in Hell,

1039

song by the British new wave slash alternative

1060
01:26:19.159 --> 01:26:25.760
rock band Modern English, and it
was from their album After the Snow,

1061
01:26:26.439 --> 01:26:32.399
Modern English bringing You I Melt with
You only on Back to the Eighties Radio,

1062
01:26:44.560 --> 01:26:46.479
Back to the Eighties Radio. The
Ci Siskanno from Tiscano and Chang from

1063
01:26:46.520 --> 01:26:50.680
their nineteen eighty two album After the
Snow that was Modern English and I Melt

1064
01:26:50.760 --> 01:26:55.960
with You. It became the band's
most successful single, Chang largely in the

1065
01:26:56.399 --> 01:26:59.359
States, Yeah, largely here in
the US, and it was featured in

1066
01:26:59.439 --> 01:27:06.119
the film Alley Girl and on Your
Favorite Channel and Mine MTV. It even

1067
01:27:06.279 --> 01:27:13.439
reached number seven on Billboard's Mainstream Rock
chart. In nineteen eighty three, re

1068
01:27:15.199 --> 01:27:19.319
released and it reached number seventy six
on their Hot one hundred chart. Can

1069
01:27:19.479 --> 01:27:25.439
you Believe that? No, that's
a three striker for me? Strike number

1070
01:27:25.479 --> 01:27:30.760
one Billboard Rock Chart, Strike number
two. MTV liked Strike number three.

1071
01:27:30.880 --> 01:27:35.720
Those guys looked like a bunch of
high school nerd whoosies. Stop hating,

1072
01:27:35.920 --> 01:27:44.199
Stop hating, Gosh. The band's
vocalist Robbie Gray described England at that time

1073
01:27:44.279 --> 01:27:48.000
that the song was written Robbie and
it was He said that it was England

1074
01:27:48.119 --> 01:27:53.720
was an oblique place due to an
ongoing economic downturn. He said, there

1075
01:27:53.800 --> 01:27:57.239
was no money, there was no
power, you'd you'd be home with candles,

1076
01:27:57.720 --> 01:28:03.079
and you know, his fears of
of nuclear war inspired the song I

1077
01:28:03.319 --> 01:28:08.760
Melt with You. So that's pretty
good. I mean, come on,

1078
01:28:08.920 --> 01:28:13.840
these these songs are from so many
years you know, so many years ago,

1079
01:28:14.560 --> 01:28:18.520
and these these songs are super super
popular today. Especially what is that

1080
01:28:18.600 --> 01:28:23.880
in the background. I see in
the background you have a poster for Modern

1081
01:28:24.039 --> 01:28:30.279
English after this Snow what what?
Signed? Signed by Robbie Gray. Yes,

1082
01:28:30.840 --> 01:28:34.279

1083
01:28:34.399 --> 01:28:38.760
I thought you were gonna see you
stole it from my room. I

1084
01:28:38.920 --> 01:28:43.279
stole it from your room. Your
son gave it to me exactly. I

1085
01:28:43.800 --> 01:28:45.920
can't get rid of this woosey ass
poster. Okay, I'm going to slice

1086
01:28:46.000 --> 01:28:50.520
up another great metal track of my
past, another great favorite band of mine,

1087
01:28:51.039 --> 01:28:56.520
with another leading member that is no
longer with us, and a member

1088
01:28:56.600 --> 01:29:00.560

gonna say, I thought you're gonna say

1091
01:29:09.880 --> 01:29:14.640
poly Shore. Oh, poly Shore
is an ass and a weasel there,

1092
01:29:14.720 --> 01:29:17.000
I said it. And if anybody
wants to tell him that I said that,

1093
01:29:17.239 --> 01:29:19.199
tell him I said that, and
tell me he could find me right

1094
01:29:19.239 --> 01:29:21.800
here at Back to the Eighties,
I was gonna say. And if anybody

1095
01:29:21.880 --> 01:29:26.439
wants to fight you for that,
they're more than you'd be more than happy

1096
01:29:26.479 --> 01:29:29.560
to oblige. Oh man, you
know, if I could get poly Shore

slap the crap out of him one time,

1098
01:29:32.800 --> 01:29:34.880
I mean, my god, I

1099
01:29:34.920 --> 01:29:39.279

01:29:47.720 --> 01:29:51.920
used to feel when I was very
chaotic and fearless as a young man.

1103
01:29:53.479 --> 01:29:59.079
