Live from Fremont's three experience in fabulous downtown Las Vegas. It's the podcast that

0:06

celebrates our city. This is living Las Vegas. We are celebrating and we

0:12

are spreading the positivity because we are here to say F yeah for F one?

0:17

Am I right? Nice? That's got to be the first time anybody's

0:21

done that, said F one? Right? Did you just coin that?

0:25

I can't be that. That's Mojo everybody, Mojo Roberts. Well, look,

0:31

I'm probably the first person. Well, I can't say that I emphatically

0:34

agreed with that sentiment. But I got to imagine that people aren't as excited

0:39

as we are on this podcast today about it. We're staying positive to to

0:43

all the negative stuff we've heard it. It's been going on for months.

0:47

Let's just put it all in the past and stay positive for five minutes of

0:51

positivity about it. I'll give you five minutes here about F one. Right

0:57

back to the well with it on this episode. No, because I didn't

1:03

say the word. I cleaned it up. It's okay. So when it

1:07

comes to positive things about F one, Look, there are as a spectacle

1:10

coming for this thing. Sure, so we're going to talk about some of

1:12

the cool things happening around that. If you are interested in going through the

1:18

amazing spectacle that is F one, there are there are some things that we

1:21

can talk about that could tip you to that way. If you haven't already

1:23

purchased your ticket yet, there are still some available. What a weekend.

1:26

It's going to be a weekend and it's going to be a first for Las

1:30

Vegas, which you know we've had a few of those in the last few

1:33

years. We've got our first Super Bowl coming up, and now we have our first race. The weather last week looked like we might have rain that

1:40

has gone away, looks like we're going to have rain. No rain for now. It's a blind melon song son change this weekend. These things can't

1:46

change in the desert. But it was interesting. We brought up the point

1:49

of what could happen in rain and you know, I was thinking, wet

1:52

tracks. Is that going to be okay? And you brought up, oh, we've had flooding in the past. Depends on how much rain, but

1:56

it doesn't take much before we got some standing water on the strip. And

2:00

so unless they've done something with drainage that we didn't hear about, and we

2:02

seems like we heard about everything that was going into the construction. Unless they

2:07

changed the drainage, I don't think they did. Enough rain would cause pooling,

2:12

which would definitely I would think shut things down. But again, you're

2:15

saying no rain this weekend. Good Look how positive we are. We are

2:20

beautiful forecasts. Frick yeah, I mean yeah, I mean the world's eyes

2:23

on Vegas will see a beautiful rain free. I feel like it's already started,

2:28

like the celebrations. I mean, we're recording this right now on a

2:30

Tuesday in downtown Las Vegas, but I feel a lot of people are already

2:34

in town for the race. They've already started their celebrations. They're ready to

2:38

get this thing started. Man, well, they say New York is a melting pot. Go out and listen to the accents and the foreign language being

2:45

spoken in the streets of Las Vegas. The world is here for the spectacle

2:50

that is f one in Las Vegas. I will say the swiping has been

2:53

a lot more interesting on the dating apps. All these fine looking foreign men

2:59

on there. How does that work? I was thinking the same thing. So you're saying that the white the swiping changes. Oh yeah, So if

3:07

people are in town. They could be using travel mode, they could be

3:10

you know, or anybody that comes to town. You find that they you

3:15

can discover them on the dating apps. Interesting, and so I've seen a

3:17

lot of interesting because European men close proximity, they're all they're all in town

3:23

already. I feel a lot of them are. Yeah, Okay, so I'm trying to find a European bubble buddy over here. What's the app bubble

3:30

tender hinge? I'm trying to get on ray Tony. I think you have

3:35

an interesting perspective on it then, because I don't think a lot of us

3:38

were aware that they'd be getting in on a Tuesday for the But yeah,

3:42

they're coming to spend the week. Saturday, it's all over or really Sunday

3:45

morning, right, so they're going back Sunday Monday. They're here for the week. It makes sense they'd be here and everything starts on Thursday. Yeah.

3:51

So we were actually kind of preparing for this before we hit the on

3:54

mic on our on our studio here, and it's funny, we didn't know

3:58

a whole lot. We had to ask sure a bunch of questions like is it just Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and when is the race or what

4:03

time does it start? You listening to this right now may not realize it

4:08

doesn't start TLL ten o'clock on Saturday night. I pre show, I said

4:12

ten pm. You guys looked at me like you were shocked, like that's

4:14

the first time you'd heard about that. That's late. I get it. It's in Europe. You gotta be able to you know, so what they're

4:17

gonna watch it like eight in the morning there, and in the States they're

4:20

used to. F one fans in the States are used to watching on tape

4:24

delay because all of these things that happen in Europe, you're not watching them

4:27

in real time in the overnight. So the next morning you get on and

4:30

it's the tape delayed thing, you know, the race that you missed from

4:33

from last night. So that same thing will be going on. I think

4:35

in Europe this is going to be happening, you know, not quite prime

4:40

time, but definitely during the day for most of Europe where the key markets

4:45

are. But here it's ten pm at night. Think about New York. If you're an F one fan in New York, it's happening at one in

4:49

the morning. You're not gonna watch it in real time. You're gonna wake

4:51

up the next morning and watch the tape delayed race. So it's a unique

4:55

aspect of it. But yeah, ten o'clock at night, people ask me,

4:58

are you gonna watch it? Yes, I'm gonna watch it for about

5:00

fifteen minutes before I fall asleep because I go to bed on a Saturday night.

5:03

I don't know, not very not very often will you find me awake

5:06

at ten o'clock. But I'm guessing, and I'm going to go out on

5:10

a limb here. Locals that are excited for F one and know all the

5:14

things you just spoke about because they are F one fans are probably few and

5:17

far between. Most of them are probably bandwagon F one fans that they're pumped

5:20

with the party. Yeah, dude, I'm watching because I'm a Vegas fan.

5:23

I'm not an F one fan. I don't think maybe I could come

5:27

up with one driver's name, the guy who won it all. That's the

5:29

other negative that some people said about this Las Vegas Races. What they're competing

5:33

for has already been won, so this is kind of like just a showcase

5:38

kind of thing. But I'm not coming up with the guy's name. What

5:41

was the guy on Ricky Bobby? Was that John Pierre or something like that,

5:44

shaking Ricky Bob. That's the only one I know. Yeah, oh

5:47

yeah, you remember what I'm talking about. Yeah, the guy who played

5:49

Boratory. Well, American Express is the official art baron Conor. That's there.

5:55

You go. A funny individual. He's very funny, and he nailed

5:58

I mean, he nailed the accident. He honestly prepared for that. They're

6:01

the official partner American Expresses for Las Vegas first ever Grand Prix, and they're

6:06

gonna be doing a whole bunch of things as the weekend approaches. They're going

6:12

to be uh let's see, remember reading some of this over the North Coval

6:15

Zone presented by American Express is going to have the fan experience there, which

6:19

is happening Thursday through Saturday. It's an immersive three story activation. You got

6:24

to have an American Express card and be a member there for their guests U

6:28

plus three's how you get into that. It's access only through reservation, which

6:31

I think most of the things are around F one. It's adjacent to Coval

6:36

Straight. As drivers race to turn five, they're going to have F one

6:41

theme Friendship bracelets. Shout out to Taylor Swift Refreshments, Liquid Deaths and Moet

6:46

Hennessey and anyone with access to North Coval Zone by American Express can enjoy one

6:53

of a kind photo moments to commemorate the weekend outdoor seat seating areas with TVs

6:57

to via the F one broadcast tunes from DJs. They're gonna have food,

7:00

trucks and games and all sorts of fun side shows, and including a unique

7:06

mural designed by Las Vegas local muralists Mila May. I'm not familiar with her

7:12

work, but cool. That is cool that they're doing all of this.

7:15

It's exclusive because you got to have you know what that was, or you're

7:17

making fun. No, I don't know who. That is cool they're including

7:19

a local artist. I agree with you to think you're speaking to like people

7:24

listening to this podcast. They're not going to be at that thing, right

7:27

are they? I'm not to that part of it. No, But as

7:30

I tell you about some of the entertainment for the opening ceremonies, maybe maybe

7:33

right. I mean, look, they're covering every genre of who's performing at

7:39

this thing. Everyone from Major Laser, which is you know part diplo.

7:44

Mark Ronson Journey's going to be there. Now Rogers and Kylie Minogue just got

7:47

to and you were just bragging about Nole Rogers Rogers. Yeah, there's I

7:51

mean Steve aokj Balvin thirty seconds from ours. Jared Lettile might even climb our

7:56

Empire State Building, Swedish House. Mafia is going to be there, will

8:00

I am, Andrew Andre Day, Bishop Briggs there more. This is like

8:03

a paragraph form, so I'm trying to scan through it here. So what

8:07

you have a ticket to the race and it gets you into this ceremony,

8:11

this opening, this concert to open it up. What night is that concert?

8:13

It is on the November thirteenth race organized. I think this is throughout

8:18

the whole thing. Well, it's at multiple locations. It's at the Wink

8:22

Grid Club, It's at the Paddock Club, the Skybox, the Heinekens silvermin

8:24

grandstands. So they're spreading it out, got it over multiple locations throughout the

8:30

racetrack. It is interesting. Have you, I know you both have seen

8:33

that aerial shot of I guess one of the turns that they built with the

8:37

grandstands there. Yeah, I think, yeah, it's pretty. The aerial

8:41

shots all look great. It's gonna look good on television. Look, here's

8:45

the thing. We've all been a little negative. I say all pretty much

8:48

everybody I've heard from over the last two months. It's more than we expected

8:54

from a obstruction standpoint. I think you said last week, what was the

8:56

word you used, intrusive. Yeah, it's just been more intrusive than any

9:01

of us anticipated. We like to be able to when we go to the

9:05

strip, drive down the strip and see the fountains, but you can't,

9:07

and you haven't been able to for six weeks. So it's all been a

9:11

little more than we expected. And then the paving and the construction of it

9:15

all, and the headaches that it has caused in traffic, all of that's

9:18

been a negative. But look, all of that's a part of growing into

9:22

being a main location for F one for the next ten years. So all

9:28

growing requires some patients. And when you get past the initial period of growth,

9:35

I think what's gonna happen is we're gonna feel like old F one fans

9:39

like three years from now, like in year three of the race, we're

9:43

gonna be like, yeah, that's our race. Look how awesome it is.

9:46

We might even feel that this Saturday, but even in the lead up to it, I think in year three, by then we're gonna be like,

9:52

yes, of course we have one of the coolest F one races in

9:56

the world and it happens right here in our backyard. Of course we're going to feel that way. But this last two months it's been a lot.

10:01

Yeah, it has been a lot of inconveniences. And we we like to

10:05

tout that we are the entertainment capital of the world, and we are undisputedly

10:09

right. Sure, we've I've heard people say that we're becoming the sports capital

10:13

of the world. I would argue of America. But this is an important

10:16

stepping stone to be able to say that we are becoming a sports capital of

10:20

the world. The important stepping stone there, so sports is entertainment, and

10:26

the entertainment capital of the world should have an F one race, and if it doesn't, you got to build one. And the building of it is

10:31

sure to inconvenience some people for a minute, and when we get past it,

10:35

we'll all be F one fans. I just told you I don't know

10:39

an F one driver's name today, But in year three, am I going

10:41

to have a favorite driver or two favorite you know what I mean, Honey

10:45

Rock and his jersey them. You just might have a few swipeing on bumble.

10:48

Who knows he's already got some favorite drivers. Get them? Yeah,

10:54

yeah, thumb up them. Yeah, you could do that, or you

10:56

could swipe rights. Swipe right is a safe all right, well leap let

11:01

me know if there's any you swipe left on. I'm curious, how are

11:05

you not on a dating app? Or you're not saying why sorry? That's

11:09

why? Thank you? I did not know, see I am. It'll

11:13

be interesting to see, one how we react to what Las Vegas flexes and

11:18

surprises are going to be added throughout the whole spectacle of all of this that

11:22

we just don't know about in advance, or who travels here. I'm sure

11:26

any and everybody is going to be here, whether you're a celebrity, an

11:30

actor, an actress, dude, a drive like. I just think any and everybody's going to be here. And here's another thing to think about.

11:35

There's going to be things on the sphere that we've never seen before. That's

11:37

your account on that I see from my television right through my TV the window

11:43

to the world right there out Centennial Hill, look enjoying it. Maybe I'll

11:46

even have a Heineken Silver as look at that of the F one. It'll

11:52

be interesting to see what we do with it and what how they take it

11:58

all down. Look, anytime you do something new, there's gonna be growing

12:01

pains. There's gonna be things, learning curves that you have to get past

12:03

in year one. If this is gonna be a scale down version of in

12:07

terms of set up next year, the great, then we've got through the pains in the first year. I hope that's the case, and I'm gonna

12:11

stay positive and just say it at that. Just hopefully they can get everything

12:16

dismantled and take it down so we can get our beautiful strip back, you

12:20

know, in just the season. No, in time for Super Ball.

12:24

Oh no, we got the holidays first, come on trees back in in

12:26

front of the Bolagio. I'm sure they will, like I would like,

12:31

is this unrealistic to say, hey, Black Friday is going to be like a week after the race. Can we get it back by then? Yeah?

12:35

Right? I don't know. Yeah, I will be complaining if it

12:39

takes them just as long to tear it down as it took them to put it up, all the grand stands in the viewing areas and platforms and everything

12:46

that's obstructing view right now, if it takes a long time to get it torn down, I'll be complaining at that. Well, they said, they

12:52

said when they tore down the trees at the Blangio that they will have new

12:54

trees up for Christmas or for the Christmas season. So that leads me to

12:58

believe like by the time, like in a far it's here, that's got

13:00

to all be taken down. That's two weeks. We'll see. You're all

13:03

the clock F one But a great look for our city. Let's all hope

13:07

for the best. I think F one will become a point of pride for

13:11

people who live here, but right now it just doesn't feel like that.

13:16

But let's see how you feel on you know, Sunday night. Yeah, gonna be a point of pride or a point of pain. That is TVD.

13:22

So far it's been all pain and no pride. But we're gonna hopefully turn the tide as Saturday approaches ten o'clock really o'clock PM, Okay, And

13:30

I think it'll be pride because you got Donnie Osmond doing the yeah anthem.

13:35

Then you got over sixty flag carriers while he's doing the national anthem, local

13:41

teachers yep from the Hunderson District, along with some students. So I mean,

13:43

I like, to your point, I'm glad they're including us in this,

13:48

you know event. That's a great point. I didn't really even consider the locals that are activated throughout all the different ways they're bringing him in.

13:54

That's cool that they're doing that. Yeah, here's a positive. Okay,

13:58

if you want last tickets, they're way cheaper than we talked, very true.

14:03

Or or you could spend seven thousand dollars to go to Club Sports Illustrated

14:07

to check out Shaquie O'Neil and David Beckham seven thousand dollars can get a selfie

14:13

with them. That's kind of cool. Geez. Yeah, okay, all

14:16

right, we'll see. I'm gonna withhold judgment until after this is all said

14:20

and done. But it's it looks like it's a Vegas spectacle like we normally

14:24

do when events like this come to our city. Let's just hope that to

14:28

your point, we can get transitioned out of it easy and less painfully than

14:31

it was going into it. I think we stayed positive. We said we

14:35

would. We did. Hey, by the way, that was ten minutes.

14:37

You know how hard that was. All right? You're sweating a little bit, That's how hard it was. All right? Can we talk about

14:43

how awesome it was to see our Vegas Golden Knights in suits at the White

14:48

House this week for their photo op, and that's congratulation that made me happy

14:54

for The President said something to the liking, and I don't know if this is a direct quote, but it's this. The idea of what he said

15:00

was that it was against all odds that we got there. Oh did he

15:03

say that something that was against all of It was a different clip that I

15:07

heard something like that. I listened to the full speech from the President US

15:13

or something to that. He pulled the chips stacked against this bitch. I

15:16

don't know if that was the exact quote, but it was the idea of

15:20

we didn't see that coming. The clip I heard was so right on and

15:22

well written for him. Was I was just going to say, you know,

15:26

somebody wrote that for him, that that team has meant so much to

15:30

this community. And then he referenced on October, so you know, for

15:33

all the reasons that we know as people who live here. Yes, of

15:35

course that team has meant so much to this community. And then to do

15:39

what they did last year, and look, I don't know any f one drivers names, but I know all those dudes in the White House yesterday and

15:46

they had a blast Mark Stone for president because he took the podium and I'm

15:52

like, he kind of looks like a natural up there. I mean he's

15:54

Canadian. Maybe he's Canadian. I don't know what I was going to say

15:56

that would prevent him from being in the White House for that reason, maybe

16:00

he maybe he couldn't be president. If you're suggesting he couldn't, all right,

16:03

you're probably right. But they didn't give the microphone to William Carlson.

16:08

That was a safe idea. After the parade, let's not do that.

16:12

He was sober, though it looked like the President was like, I've been

16:15

there since day one, and he winked at William Carlson. Yeah, okay.

16:21

So we're happy for them and they continue to have a strong season. And then we got and they're playing the Washington team tonight to Capitals and it's

16:29

a tough road trip, obviously, a hard start to the hot start to

16:33

the season. They're the best team in hockey, but a lot of road

16:36

games ahead. Most of the rest of November, they're on the road.

16:40

There's only one more home game this month. So yeah, I mean that's

16:44

a tough thing. They've got to go five hundred maybe you know, maybe

16:47

better than that on this road trip. Well, it's good you said five hundred because that is where our Raiders stand now. Look at the beginning of

16:52

the season, and I know this is still a long shot, but they're

16:55

not out of contention for the playoffs. So you know, with our Super Bowl being here, there have been two Super Bowls in history that have had

17:02

the home team have home field at the Super Bowl, and it's still in

17:06

the cards for us. It's not out of the cards. Let me put it that way. Yeah, five and five. You can make the playoffs.

17:10

From five and five. You got to get hot, and you're gonna have to beat some good teams. They've got the Chiefs twice, they've got

17:14

the Chargers, they've got a tough schedule. You've beaten some easy teams to

17:18

get back to five hundred, and the Giants and the Jets. So you

17:22

five hundred go out and prove that you belong and then maybe you'll be in

17:25

the mix at the end of the season. And since they fired their GM and coach and bench Jimmy Garoppolo, the killing it dude. Yeah, everything

17:32

seems to be pointing in the right direction again. Some tough games ahead that

17:36

they'll have to play. They'll have to play better than we've seen them play

17:40

to beat the Chiefs. Well, anything could happen. I'm just happy to

17:44

see them putting some wins on the boards. Yeah, they're fun to watch, man. It has been fun. A little talented guys on that team.

17:48

And we begin some good looks too with you know what, was it Sunday night football too? So with the Chiefs two games, if we can

17:55

take one of those, that's a good look. Yeah, I agree, get that home game for sure. And Taylor, i'm't or what, I'm

18:00

just curious, all right. So the Raiders, we've talked, the Golden

18:03

Knights. Oh you have a kill that one band, the Killers, the

18:07

Killers. Gosh, that one band. Did that you say quote unquote first

18:11

Vegas ballad, the favorite band, Las Vegas favorite group. Right, you

18:17

say something about Las Vegas first band. That'll be in the Rock and Roll

18:19

Hall of Fame. I think they'll be in the Rock and Roll Hall of

18:22

Fame first ballot. I know you disagree. So they're coming out with a

18:26

compilation album on December eighth. Look, if you're a Killers fan, this

18:29

is supposed to span their twenty years. Can you believe it's been twenty years

18:32

of Killers music since Hot Fuss and so twenty years. I guess they're gonna

18:37

it's like their favorite songs of the twenty years in order consequence, consequence,

18:42

what's the worst? Sequentially? There you go in order, like, look

18:45

at me coming up with the worst? What's going on when they came out?

18:48

So yeah, I mean I looking forward to it on a new song

18:51

on their December eighth. It's called Rebel Diamonds New Killers Music. This isn't

18:55

the greatest hits per se, it's their favorites, right. I think it's

18:59

like songs they've chosen for this compilation. They did a greatest Hits like ten

19:03

years ago, so this is the next one, you know, at their twenty year anniversary. So yeah, I think it's their favorite songs. But

19:07

also, how are you gonna leave out mister Brightside and some of those songs

19:11

everybody loves, but maybe it'll be a special version or something. And the greatest hits that was called hot Fuss. Right. Hot Fuss was their first

19:17

though joke. I had one joke, Why are you hating? I'm not

19:19

hating. I it sounds like hate. No, we've said this before on

19:23

the podcast. You and I have gone round and round. I think they're

19:26

a great band. I think they will mee in the Rock and All Hall of Fame. I just don't think first ballot, that's all. But do

19:30

you love them or do you hate them? I think they're okay? Okay,

19:33

so that's hate my no. I know. I say one of the

19:36

best bands twenty years and you're like, they're okay, they're good. They're

19:40

good. That's different than okay, okay, you're right. I'm sorry. They are good. Scale of one to ten, how good are they for

19:45

you? From one being the word like one, I can't listen to it

19:48

ten. It's one of my favorite bands. I have to go see them

19:52

when they're in town. They are one of my top three favorite bands from

19:55

Las Vegas. Oh, he's avoiding. You heard eight for me? I'd

20:00

say six or six or seven for me? Comfortable. Well, that's not

20:03

okay, six or seven? Like, let's just put you in the seven

20:07

group. That's not okay, that's like you like that, that's good,

20:10

Okay, you're right there. Okay, Like I'll go see if they were

20:15

in town tonight and I offered you free tickets, would you would you go?

20:18

Yeah? Out of respect? Yeah? No, no no, would you go because you want to go? And out of respect to them?

20:22

I would go because I mean, that's a great opportunity to see a band

20:26

that has beloved in this town that is playing at hometown show. Yeah,

20:29

I would go. All right, let's say it's Puddle of Mud. Now,

20:32

if you said it's one hundred dollars a ticket, I'm Puddle the Mud.

20:34

Nickelback or the Killers? Who are you going to see? Mojo?

20:38

Oh? Never made it as a blund No, I'm going to the Killers.

20:44

If from that, that was like the most telling oof I've ever heard,

20:49

Like Nickelback, they're good. See I got a bad Oh no,

20:55

yes, I'm hating. I was doing Puddle of Mud to two okay because

20:59

she said puddle of and I thought, maybe Sener you love puffy. Nickel

21:03

Back is a solid eight for me. Okay, okay, and that was

21:06

got that out of the way. You can throw. I don't think you have good taste in music. I think you're wrong about the Killers I have.

21:11

I genuinely have commercial taste in music, so I like songs on the

21:15

radio. I'm a big fan of the radio. And uh, that's that's

21:19

probably a fault to some people in terms of how I view music. But

21:23

familiarity is important to you. If you don't know it, and if you

21:26

can't sing along with it, then it's not right. You know, for

21:29

whatever reason, it didn't cut through for you. That's probably why I put Imagine Dragons on a bigger pedestal. Yeah. I think they're a great band,

21:34

and they've got hits. They are an excellent band. They've got more

21:37

hits. Songs that are bigger than Killers are nine from me. By the

21:40

way, I'm a nine. I had no doubt I was gonna say ten. I thought it would be ten. I thought you'd say ten. You're

21:45

a big fan. I probably only have a handful of tens. I don't

21:49

know if the Killers are there yet. Okay, one more, what's your

21:52

favorite Killer song? Oh, it's impossible to pick a favorite. I I

21:57

probably don't go Hot Fuss with it. I think, oh, it's not

22:02

impossible. My favorite song is is when You Were Young? Oh that's this

22:08

is perfect. You know what's the Samstown album more than I like the Hot

22:12

Fuss album. And there's probably six or eight songs I've loved since the Samstown

22:18

album. So I actually, this is going to be shocking to everybody in

22:22

the room and listening. Let's I agree with Tony. That was my favorite

22:25

Killer song. It's a fantastic song, stop, an unreal fantastic song.

22:30

And I was an expert level on guitar Hero playing that song. Oh is

22:36

it a guitar Hero song? I never did that. I haven't played that in forever. I played if they had it at an arcade. I went

22:40

to a David Busser's here in town and they had it. So I totally played When we were Young the Killers. Yeah, so weird. You and

22:45

I agree on that song. It's a great Killer song. You're right about

22:48

that, and not off a hof buss. Okay, you haven't announcement,

22:52

which is a great segue. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's when we

22:56

were young announcing the next day for next year. Nice segue. We didn't

23:00

even have that in our notes. But yeah, they announced the lineup for

23:03

year three of When We Were Young. Yeah, and it's only one day

23:06

next year Saturday Actubern. They start with one day, they'll out a second

23:10

as it sells out. You think that's what they did last year and the year before. They did three the year before because of demand. So they'll

23:15

they'll timper demand based, they'll out of shows based on how many people want

23:19

tickets. Gotcha My Chemical Romance, fall Off Boy, my favorite, and

23:25

who I'm looking forward to? Who gets an absolute solid ten? The used,

23:30

The used is good, They're underrated. Jimmy World Pier. I think

23:34

this year's lineup is a better lineup. I love Green Day, but this

23:38

year's lineup is a better lineup for me than last year's lineup. And I

23:44

don't agree with that only because the headliners were bigger. The Blink Green Day

23:48

pairying was massive the year before Spring Yeah, it was Paramore and My Chemical

23:52

Romance the year before, right, Yep, So you're bringing bringing back some

23:56

they're bringing back simple Plan, the bringing back all American reads, bring it

24:00

back May Day Parade. Yeah, so there is some resampling of what they've

24:03

had in the past with the lineup. But I get it, there's only

24:06

so many bands from that era, right right. People love it, so why are you going to try to I don't know, reinvent it. Just

24:11

put it back out there again. People love it's loved. It's become one

24:15

of the best festivals of the year. It's a vibe, it's a great,

24:18

great event, and those it's that's a cool venue too. I enjoyed

24:22

myself out there. But my question is, speaking from my Warped Tour years

24:26

and experience, there's got to be a time when all good things come to

24:30

an end. So I'm just curious to see how long it has a run

24:34

for at some point. Yeah, that's a great point. Well how long

24:37

did warp Tour went on for two years? Like twenty years? Yeah,

24:41

Now you take away the top line of that lineup. You can just shuffle

24:45

reshuffle that over and over and over again. But you got to have those

24:47

anchor bands. Yeah, And I judge it off of that and follow out

24:51

Boy. By the way, if you haven't seen Fallout Boy in a decade, they've leveled up. Like we saw him at our iHeart Radio Music Festival.

24:56

They were fantastic. In fact, I was, I was shook,

25:00

and how much better they've gotten over the years. They sounded great, their

25:03

vocals were great, the pyrotechnics they were literally I could do without the Billy

25:08

Joel cover, but I digress. Who's uh Billy Joel's one of the greats.

25:11

I know. But the whole recing, you know, we didn't start

25:14

the fire with kind of corny. That's like we see the third grade teachers

25:17

do for their class, you know, to teach them about history. What band in that genre hasn't been added to any of the lineups yet? Is

25:23

there anybody they've missed, like in that genre or adjacent to the genre that

25:27

they've missed? I predicted Fallout Boy and Weezer. Weezer hasn't done Weezer hasn't

25:33

done it. Good Charlotte they had this year which was awesome. Who else

25:38

the US, which is what they're doing next year? The three eleven at

25:41

that thing they did first year? Didn't they three eleven fits? No?

25:48

I think they did first year really almost positive. I feel it's more like

25:52

the reggae It still fits vibe. Yeah, anyway, it's still those tickets

26:00

Chili Peppers fit. If they ever had absolutely the Eleves. Okay, you

26:04

think the Chili Peppers fits absolutely? Yeah, they played Lollapalooza that I mean,

26:10

the Lolla Pluza is still part of that. How about a no Doubt

26:12

reunion with no doubt No doubt would be big Smashing Pumpkins would fit on that

26:18

although Nirvana, well, well I know, let's not get crazy, all

26:22

right, all right, food fighters always I don't think of food Fighters in

26:26

those terms, but okay, yes, whatever you like. It is like

26:30

punk rock, I feel like, yeah, but they could they could do

26:33

a sick New World Fest. Yeah, I think they're a little I don't

26:37

know they're heavy enough for that. I think that the fans of all those bands would also stay for food Fighters. You know what I'm saying. They

26:41

would be like I get to see all those bands and food Fighters, all

26:45

right, I'm in anyway, When do those tickets go on sale? This

26:48

Friday? This Friday is when the pre sale starts at ten o'clock and then

26:53

all tickets to start at nineteen ninety dollars or nineteen ninety nine down. Cool,

26:57

you get twenty dollars off four ticket a payment plan all right, Yeah,

27:03

three eighty comes later. But yeah, Look, if you haven't done

27:06

the festival, it's fun. Now map your day out because you can't fit

27:10

it all in one oh no way. So there you go. That's all we have and we did it. We were positive about F one next week

27:17

continues to be positive. We don't have a bunch of headaches that we're going to complain about. Yeah, I'm gonna try not to watch the news just

27:25

to see, you know, because I don't want to see their negative. I'm sure they're gonna have Like I'm sure there's gonna be accidents. I'm sure

27:29

there's gonna be you know, the news is generally positive about it because there's

27:33

advertising is attached. But true, if you don't, if you want to

27:37

avoid the negativity, just stay on Twitter. I mean that's that's where everybody's

27:41

going to go to complain. Well, we'll be here to talk about what we're thankful for, and we'll let you know if that's a part of it,

27:45

if we're going to be seeing F yeah or F no. As we
