Get up and get your ground out of here. Hit all the bums and miss work and hard this year. And bring us to the things the sister do. If you're feeling nice You know your level's worth and all No other is worth a I'll push a man behind his heels Baby, stop crying all the time Baby, to the face of such the blue You might be asking yourself right now, did Chris just play fucking Kiss to open up his show? Like usually he has this taste of music that's pretty good. Nice mix of older stuff with new. Nothing too flashy, nothing. Top hundred usually. Maybe some bonaivère here and there. But everybody be afforded a little bit of bonaivare. Because he's gotten quite popular, the guy's very talented, right? But Kiss? Now let me first acknowledge something. Right off the bat, because I'm going to tell a funny story about Kiss. And the Marbell Shuck fans might get a kick out of my plans. Because this show is a yin and yang. The first part, the yang, not that that makes any sense, but the first half is silly, but serious. Because what I'm going to tell you is a real goal. But yeah, let me get it right out of the way right now and tell you that Kiss is not like the most awesome band ever musically. I'm not gonna like try to say like I'm not gonna hold in one hand kiss his portfolio of what my buddy Scott English calls mostly songs about wanting to put your dick in something. But I want to say good things about it too. But let me get the ugly part out of the way. Yes, the most of the songs are about sex. But you know, hey, come out of the 70s and 80s, and if you're a rock band, I guess that was fitting. I mean, I've seen days of confusion like you, like 800 times. Everybody was just basically trying to, like, where can I score weed and where can I get laid? After school, that's a big football game, Friday night. Not a bad, all-American dream. But Kiss is not great. If you hold their portfolio in one hand, and on the other hand have like Led Zeppelin, you know, maybe you go well technically speaking execution wise Led Zeppelin's like about a hundred times better. Okay that's out of the way that's the low hanging fruit that's the easy stuff. I don't want to suggest to you that you're gonna fight hard on okay as dear listener you're sitting at home or in your box or in your kitchen, making camomile tea, snuggling up to a warm, toasty evening in your, in my case, I got a fire going because it's the fucking polar vortex and shit. It's November in Memphis. Usually it's like 67 degrees in November all the way through Nathan Thanksgiving. But now it was like that temperature. And then all of a sudden snow this morning. The world doesn't make any sense sometimes. But let me blow your mind with this shit, okay? What if I was gonna tell you that Kiss? This might make you a Kiss fan because we are now ravenous Kiss fans. And that's the first shocking part of this show. Let me get that out of the way now. Don't hang up on me. Please stay on the podcast. I think it's worth it. And plus we're friends, right? You should fucking just listen to me. I know it's a weird night too to be podcasting. It's a Thursday night. Usually I don't do this, but I figured, hey, I want to reach out to my friends, my homeboys. It was an awesome barbell shrug day yesterday, so I followed up with me just rambling and bullshitting after drinking too much scotch mixed with apple juice. I know the people and I ask a Christ go Chris go Chris Chris Chris Chris Chris it's after what's on the podcast happens in this case to be 11 13 right late you always like go to bed too late in this case you're trying to lean up right well I don't want to maybe yeah I'm on a little bit of that why are you drinking apple juice before you go to bed?
