And you're coming through. Nettie getting all down. Like, go ready. And you can't get up. Cause you're getting the bone. Let's do an episode of Rolling Stone.
Fetty Wap
Nice. Nice.
Wayne Fetterman
We did it. We did it. Fatty. Dude, Fetty's been getting some good recently, dude. The. The 500 gods have been smiling upon Fetty Wap.
Fetty Wap
Well, all I think of, it's literally the who canceled. It's literally. That's all I can.
Wayne Fetterman
Nobody. We. I don't know. I don't know how this one got dropped.
Fetty Wap
How would I follow through?
Wayne Fetterman
No, Jer. Like, this was. This was like the slam dunk Rolling Stones. How the. Is Fetty here for this, by the way?
Jeremiah
Now, this is.
Fetty Wap
This Rolling Stones. Now, Obviously, it's from 1965, but this is the Rolling Stone list. And Rolling Stone is on the list from Rolling Stone magazine, named after the band which was named after the song, the Muddy Water song.
Wayne Fetterman
You know what this feels like? This feels like that moment in time Cop. Where Ron Silver and the other Ron Silver touch each other, and then they both morph into the one person. Two weeks. That's total recall. But this is so function. It's so crazy how comfortable I am with this podcast. I. This. I could have, you know, any other guests. I'm like, God, I gotta go through the notes, right? This one. Not this one. This is like. This is a bowl of matzo ball soup. This is home cooking. Even though. Even though right now, Fetty is. You literally look like you're breaking into a.
Fetty Wap
No, I'm looking, I'm looking.
Jeremiah
He's cracking the.
Fetty Wap
Sorry. I had to look for it. I was. We had a little trouble getting. All right, let's start this thing. What do you want to know?
Wayne Fetterman
We're going. We're going right now.
Fetty Wap
Doing it.
Jeremiah
It's Christmas Day, by the way, and happy Hanuk to anyone.
Fetty Wap
All right.
Wayne Fetterman
Where are you? Right? We could have done this live, too, because I'm in LA right now.
Jeremiah
Live from a menorah lighting.
Fetty Wap
Yeah. Why didn't I come over to your house and do this?
Wayne Fetterman
I don't know.
Fetty Wap
Because, like, we did. That was the first one we did was that way, right?
Wayne Fetterman
Yep. It was there anymore.
Fetty Wap
Fly like an eagle.
Jeremiah
You could still go in. Say, I used to live here.
Fetty Wap
Do you mind if I go to that apartment?
Wayne Fetterman
Dude, that building. Paula, your crazy neighbor Paula that lived underneath. Dude, I was getting it from both sides. I was getting it from down below and over to the right in the building next door. That was. That was the worst. You know, it's crazy, like, how, like, now in New York, where I'm on the top floor, it's hardwood, I have the dog, I listen to loud music. I don't. I've never once had anybody ever complain. Anything that I did at the LA spot was complained against every single thing that I did.
Jeremiah
And Spotify let you do it from your kitchen studio instead.
Wayne Fetterman
Remember that? Yeah. And then you go to our valet.
Jeremiah
Wayne, and, like, Josh is like, nah, just do it in my living room.
Wayne Fetterman
Well, the plan was that you were going to pay my rent, remember? Like, that was the plan.
Jeremiah
I think that's, you know, but.
Wayne Fetterman
But you know, which is, you know, dude, we all.
Fetty Wap
We all.
Wayne Fetterman
We robbed Spotify.
Fetty Wap
Like.
Wayne Fetterman
Like, I don't even know that we robbed them. I don't know. We. We got mediocre numbers, and they paid us a bushel of money. No wonder they dropped us.
Jeremiah
I think Obama made more than you, though.
Wayne Fetterman
You were like. You were like, Morty Coyle needs $8,000 a week. Your budget was insane, dude.
Jeremiah
Yeah, but who else did we get paid?
Wayne Fetterman
Keys. He was. You know what's funny about Avery, too, is that he would get, like, mad at me when I'd ask him to work. Like, hey, man, so I need this, Carl.
Fetty Wap
Jesus.
Wayne Fetterman
Like, we're paying you to do nothing, you loon. Like, it's a job. Like, do you not want to do it? If you don't want to do it, then we'll find somebody else. Yeah, and Morty did such a good job. Morty did such a good job. He really. Dude, I'm telling you, I say it once, I'll say it again. Can't have him on the show because he'll talk incessantly. But. But, I mean, I love him more than. I love him more than anybody. The only person I think I love equally is you. Fetty.
Fetty Wap
Just knock it off. I can't deal with some kind of Christmas honesty. You don't need to see. You don't need to see me.
Jeremiah
You know, Wayne, do you celebrate Christmas or Hanukkah or.
Fetty Wap
I mean both and neither, if that makes any sense. I don't even. It's not my part of my thing, like really, you know, I get invited to things. I go. But I'm more of a fourth of July guy.
Wayne Fetterman
If you would. What's your favorite holiday?
Fetty Wap
Fourth of July.
Wayne Fetterman
Really? That's it.
Fetty Wap
Fourth of July and then maybe Thanksgiving after that.
Wayne Fetterman
Thanksgiving.
Jeremiah
You're a fireworks guy?
Fetty Wap
Is that why I loved. I can't tell you how much I enjoy fireworks. It is everything to me. I can't believe they exist. I can't believe they don't cause fires. I can't believe they're so loud. I, I just. The whole thing is. I don't know what the Chinese did, but hats off.
Wayne Fetterman
You know what they did? They played joke. They put pee pee in your Coke.
Jeremiah
Merry Christmas, everybody.
Fetty Wap
Merry Christmas.
Jeremiah
Celebrate both Christmas and Hanukkah in your household. What.
Wayne Fetterman
What do you celebrate talking to Fetty or me? You.
Jeremiah
Josh. What do you.
Wayne Fetterman
We do? Well, I'm barely. My. We're Jewish obviously. But my mom. My mom, we do. It's Which I love. We do a big English dinner every Christ. So my mom gets two big prime ribs and Yorkshire pudding and the British vegetables and we do like a. Old English. Like. And then my. Then my brother in law who everybody thinks is gay, he might be. I don't. I don't know. He's. He's a fesb. And he does. He does. He does community theater. So. I mean.
Fetty Wap
Right.
Wayne Fetterman
Take that. Whatever you want. I love him to death, but he. Then he. You know, he's just. We're a very. We're a very British. My mom really wants to be more British than Russian than we are. So we do a lot of British.
Fetty Wap
I can understand that.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah. But, but, but Chris, by the way.
Fetty Wap
We'Re gonna be talking about the British invasion.
Wayne Fetterman
I know. Dude. You know what? And we. We should dive in. We should. Because I only. I gotta. I want to be at the gym by. By 4:50. I need to pick some pants up at 4. 3:30. Well, not 3:30, but. So. Yes, So I mean. All right, where do we start? Because I don't want to. I don't want to.
Fetty Wap
Like here's. I have a couple questions. First of all, how many Rolling Stones albums have you already done? Like, are you tired of talking about them?
Wayne Fetterman
No, not at all. We're not. We're. They're they're the good. It's the same with Dylan where I think. But no, it's not the same with Dylan, because with Dylan, you need to know the old before you can get into the. To the new, you know? Or you got to know young Dylan before you know old Dill. That's a better way to say it. And I think with the Stones, you can enjoy their 70s and their late. Their early 80s and still, you know, appreciate their younger. So we did some girls. We did that record.
Fetty Wap
We did. Okay.
Wayne Fetterman
We did that with Marin.
Fetty Wap
Nice.
Wayne Fetterman
I went to his house and that was awesome. You know what I mean? We did another. Yeah, the famous garage. The famous. Yes, that was where Obama sat. And then we did the one with Thomas Everest Scott. Yeah, we did. What record was that?
Jeremiah
Between the buttons.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, we did.
Wayne Fetterman
We did that. Which was fine. We did one more. Don't tell me, don't tell me.
Jeremiah
I'll tell you the album and you guess the guest.
Wayne Fetterman
Go ahead.
Jeremiah
Tattoo you. Lead singer of collective soul.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, we did it. We did it with. Really?
Jeremiah
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, that was awesome.
Fetty Wap
The saddest Christmas.
Wayne Fetterman
Shut your mouth.
Jeremiah
Crying. He's crying under the Christmas.
Wayne Fetterman
What a great dude. That was so great.
Jeremiah
That's crazy. 10 times will be done.
Fetty Wap
I know. But you know what's ha. I looked at the Rolling Stone and they've gone from 10 to 5.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, right.
Jeremiah
The re rank you're talking about.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Re ranks have gone from 10 to cut in half, cut down. And that's from Rolling Stone that said the namesake of the band.
Wayne Fetterman
Well, why. Well, why is the magazine Rolling Stone and why is the band the Rolling Stones? Like, how do you know?
Fetty Wap
Of course. Of course I do.
Wayne Fetterman
Tell me.
Fetty Wap
It all goes back to a guy who's dead named Brian Jones. Jones, who was 1. Who was the guy who started the band.
Wayne Fetterman
He started them.
Fetty Wap
Yep. He started. Yes. Yes, he did. Yes, he did. It's very good. So. But he was already kind of almost kicked out of the band before then because he had some drug and emotional problems. This is before Emotional Rescue. He had some emotional problems and he needed better help. But he had a. You. I can't believe you haven't talked about this. But yes, he was a blues aficionado, especially Chicago Electric Blues. That was his jam. Muddy Water, Alan Wolf, Elmore, all of those guys. He loved not the delta guys, but the acoustic guitars.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Remember when they. We talked about this many times. So that was his thing. And there was. And so he literally put an ad in the paper looking for bandmates, like, for what became the Rolling Stones. And Rolling Stones was one of Muddy Water's songs. So they just was like, let's just name the band after this. Believe. And here's a little inside. Inside. Tell me you can handle it. I'll do it with the softer voice, please. They were originally the Rolling Stones with an apostrophe, no G. And then when they got the new manager, he added the G and kicked out one band member. But. So Ian Stewart was the first member to say yes. Ian Stewart later got kicked out of the band and became the roadie, if you can believe that. And piano player. Yeah. Really embarrassing. The Ian Stewart story is fascinating because he was the first guy to answer the ad. Was part of the band when they got it all together with. When it was six members. And their new manager was like, that's too many. It's too many. We need only five. We're gonna kick you out for two reasons. One, you're too old looking. Because they're trying to, like, appeal to the. But here's the crazy thing. Bill Wyman, the bass player, lied about his age and was even older than Ian Stewart. Another sidebar.
Wayne Fetterman
But love a good sidebar. Dude to get in the bed to.
Fetty Wap
Stay in the band. Like, hey, I'm 20. What are you talking about? He's 26. So. So instead of never talking to those guys again, it's like, yeah, I'll be your road manager. I'll. I'll set up your equipment. Can you imagine? To go from a member of the band to setting up the equipment. But he did play whenever they needed a piano on a record or something like that. He did play piano for a lot of. And played with them when they toured. He would play piano. You know, when I don't. You've seen the Stones? Or maybe not.
Wayne Fetterman
I just saw them this past summer. Yeah, I mean, I didn't mean this like.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, tell me here.
Wayne Fetterman
Good God. 81 years old. I know he has more energy. I don't. I can imagine what he was like in his 40s or his 20s. Because if he's as energetic, if he's more energetic than he was there. He put everything into it. He danced around. Never one. Boring. What? I'll tell you this. It did feel like Keith Richards was a little off a little bit. You know what I mean? He was a little sloppier, by the way.
Fetty Wap
That's the experience of a lot of people watching Rolling Stones concerts from the 70s on.
Wayne Fetterman
So it's always been Mick kills it and. And Keith is.
Fetty Wap
Or sometimes he is on, but he is a little hit and. A little hit and miss, that guy.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
And obviously they have Ron Wood still in the band. Correct? Holding it all down.
Wayne Fetterman
Yes. Ronnie Woods. And then. And then what's. And Charlie died, unfortunately. Yeah. Right.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, sidebar.
Wayne Fetterman
Sidebar.
Fetty Wap
I'll allow it. I'll allow it. So it's confetti.
Wayne Fetterman
Just work. Can we just make fetty? Third mic or second mic? I just. I. Dude, I don't. I don't want to live in a world.
Fetty Wap
But do you ever, like, think about that? Like, I like that somebody. Like, I always think it. Didn't the Metallica get their drummer from an ad in the Penny Saver or something like that? I believe so.
Wayne Fetterman
I know, but a lot of bands. I mean, dude, I know Bernie. Bernie Taupin and Elton John, I think. Right.
Fetty Wap
But it wasn't an ad in the paper. Right.
Jeremiah
Was the melody.
Wayne Fetterman
No.
Fetty Wap
Are you talking Melody Maker? Was the big music paper very good in England at that time, London at that time. But no, it was like a jazz thing. There were so many little lanes of music. And everyone was like, if you're playing skiffle, we hate you. If you're playing blues, we hate the skillful guy. If you're playing R B, we hate the blues, guys. If you're playing Bo Diddly, we hate. We don't want to hear that. Teenage. There were so many lanes going on, and it was really very divided society. It was very divided, like us politically right now. So it's. It.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
So that they. The stone. So. So anyway, Brian Jones was clearly in this Chicago Electric Blues and just. Just Mick and Keith. By the way, Mick is a middle class guy. He is not. He was going. He's like, maybe even upper middle class. He was not like a poor street urchin or anything.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fetty Wap
And. But he had met Keith as a kid, and then they. They moved apart. And then one day he's on a train on, like a. You know, a train, and he sees Keith, sees Mick, and he's holding two albums, one by Muddy Waters, one by Chuck Berry that he had just ordered from Chess Records in America because he couldn't get it anywhere. It's like, what is going on with them? And that's how they reconnected. They're still hating each other, but making great music. No, they do. They get along. They get along. They. But it's. It's. It's volatile, you know, it's.
Wayne Fetterman
Well, sure, but I mean, isn't all great art kind of come from. You know, it's like you're at you. And I wrote some of my best jokes when I was at my poorest. You know, it's like when you're dealing with, you're under stress. What, where. So where is this record in that.
Fetty Wap
Well, this is the problem with this record. This is obviously one of the first ones to eliminate in the re rankings. This, this is not an essential Rolling Stone record in any book. It's for. If you're a Rolling Stone fan, you are for this album. But this is. They started out as a cover band. They would do these Muddy Waters and Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley and most famously, who's that guy from Texas? Not Fade away Buddy Holly. You know what I mean? And, and that. And of course the whole time Brian Jones is like, can we just friggin do the blues? And what's great about this album is their biggest straight blues. Brian Jones Love Fest song is on this album. It's called Red Rooster.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, by the way. Yeah, that, that's the story. Side note, sidebar.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, approach the branch. Approach.
Wayne Fetterman
Okay, no, this is a good one. This is a good sidebar. When so the story of, of the one year anniversary of the goddamn Comedy Jam. I've told this before, but originally it was Burr. And then Burr got tickets to like go to a concert. And he's like, I can't go. And then he said, he goes, well, so you got to help me out. He goes, well, I'll get Marin. And so I call Marin. Mary's like, all right, so what's the show? And I explained it to him. You want to do a. Pick a song that everybody knows. And he goes, how about the Rolling Stones? And I'm like, oh yeah, dude, you could do Brown Sugar. You could do Satisfaction, Sympathy. You start me up something. If the audience knows it, dude, it'll rule. And he goes, yeah, I could give a. About the audience. He goes, I want to do this, this Japanese release from a B side called Little Red Rooster. And so he did Little Red Rooster, but he also then did Sympathy too. So. Yeah, he did. He did two. But yeah, I mean it's a, it's a. It's a deep cut. Deep cut, deep cuts.
Fetty Wap
It is a deep cut, by the way. It's not that deep in that in England it was a big. I think it went to number one. I think it's the only blues dong to one. Is that correct? I think I read correct. I just read it that. But it's, it's straight up blues and the slide guitar you hear is Brian Jones before he. He drowned himself in that pool.
Wayne Fetterman
Not to be confused, though, with the Brian Jonestown Massacre. Great band. You don't know them.
Fetty Wap
I don't know that.
Wayne Fetterman
Are you serious?
Fetty Wap
I seriously don't know.
Wayne Fetterman
So there's. The Brian Jonestown Massacre is a band from San Francisco. I can't believe you don't know them. Because there was a year.
Fetty Wap
What year should we talk they.
Wayne Fetterman
Late 90s to now. They are. There was a doc. I can't believe you don't know this because you're a music nerd. There's a. There's a documentary, it's phenomenal, called Dig D I G. Exclamation point. And it's about. It's about these two bands. Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols. Do you know the Dandies?
Fetty Wap
I've heard of that.
Wayne Fetterman
They had a. They had a moment in the late 90s.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Early 2000s. But it's about them. They were friends. And the Dandy Warhols, kind of. They didn't sell out, but they. They became way more successful. And Brian Jonestown Massacre, which is a far better band, imploded. And I mean, on stage would like Fight. Dude, it's such a good documentary.
Fetty Wap
Is it dig or D I G?
Wayne Fetterman
It's dig. It's dig. Exclamation point. That's how it's. Dude, it's.
Fetty Wap
Do you think it's on Tubi? Do you think it's on Tubi? That's where I go. That's my go to.
Wayne Fetterman
Dude. Tubia is like the. The best and the worst of all black movies.
Fetty Wap
Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. There's so many. Yeah. Chitlin Circuit movies.
Wayne Fetterman
Incredible.
Fetty Wap
There's like eight. There's eight Mantan Moreland movies on there. It's really. They're incredible. But, yeah, I will check that out. I will check that out. Maybe you really. Maybe.
Wayne Fetterman
I think. I think you will love it. And I think you'll also love the music of the Brian Jonestown Massacre. They are a really good band. They just. It's like psychedelic rock, but, you know, it's just. They. They just imploded. They couldn't. Because Anton Newcomb, the guy that started the band, is just batshit. And I mean, they would fight on stage. He would fight people on stage and kick them out. Out of the band in front of everybody. It's awesome.
Jeremiah
I might have a video of this one on stage.
Wayne Fetterman
Fight.
Jeremiah
I was looking it up. Okay, let's see if I can Share it with the people.
Wayne Fetterman
By the way, what does everybody do, man? My. My. I think my. My skin and my fingers are, like, cracking. Do you guys. What do you guys do? Okay, she's ready to play Resentments. But this isn't from the movie. This is recently.
Jeremiah
Oh, yeah, it just happened again. Was this like.
Wayne Fetterman
This happened again? Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Okay.
Jeremiah
That's crazy.
Wayne Fetterman
You want to see? Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Brian. Jonestown Mass. Okay.
Wayne Fetterman
Ryan. Jonestown Massacre. All right, so. So, yeah, so take us while he looks that up. So. So where is it?
Fetty Wap
Anyway, so this is like. This is again. Because one thing about. You should know about the Rolling Stones is they were signed. They did one cover of a Chuck Berry song. They took that demo over to deca Records, which were reeling because they had turned down the Beatles the year before in 62. And the Beatles were starting to explode. And the. The thing was deca, you know, they're English label, the whole thing. So they signed the Rolling Stones. Thank God. Because that guy. Same guy. Same guy, same head of. And they put out some EPs in England. Those are like four songs on a. Again, it's all weird. So United States would get different albums than England got, but this is, I believe, the third US Album that came over here. And it's. It's a really fun album. I listened to it last night. I knew. So three of the songs I like. It's just. If you're interested in how a band went from a cover band to an original music band, it's like the Beatles.
Wayne Fetterman
It's like, please, please me. It's like. There's still a lot of covers on it, but there's also. There's also a couple, like, really delicious songs on there. I mean, this is their third record. March 65.
Fetty Wap
Yep, yep, yep.
Wayne Fetterman
Let's see. Yeah, I mean, I don't. I don't like. I mean, I just have all the mishpagash, like, of course, classmates, the blah, blah.
Fetty Wap
Can I say before. Before we get to this record, the second hit that the Rolling Stones had, not a number one, was written by Lennon, and McCartney, was called I want to be your man.
Wayne Fetterman
They gave it I want to be a man. Is that it? I want to be a man.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, you're just saying the title of the song. You're just saying.
Wayne Fetterman
But that's the song.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, I know it is. I. No, I always like when someone. Is it the song, and you just say the title and say something.
Wayne Fetterman
Is it.
Fetty Wap
So is it the song that goes. I want to be here. Yes, it's gonna be in this yeah, you got it. You got. But you are correct, that is. And then the Beatles later released it with Ringo singing on it. But here's the thing. They brought it in and it was only halfway done. And the. This guy, the Rolling Stones manager, Andrew Oldman, I think his name is. Yeah. Goog, I think is how you pronounce it.
Wayne Fetterman
We gotta be very careful how you say that, dude.
Fetty Wap
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
Wayne Fetterman
I always used to say. I always used to do a joke about how like, like, like, you know, because, you know, they're Paul. Like Paul McCartney. If he. If he was racist, he'd be the most adorable racist. The way he talks to be like, I hate the gooky wooks.
Fetty Wap
So anyway, he brings Lennon and McCartney to meet these guys and they were like, do you have anything for us? Because they're like, well, we have the beginning of this. I want to be your man. They're like, we like this. This literally McCartney, Lennon go in the corner of the recording studio, write up the rest of the lyrics and hand it to him. And that becomes their second big hit. I want to be your man.
Wayne Fetterman
Wow.
Fetty Wap
Come on. That again. People were covering Beatles, were covering other people. Now Stones are covering the Beatles. So it's. So anyway. But this album is a little later than that. And it's. I don't know, there's like. There's like three, like incredible eras of the Rolling Stones, in my opinion. There's.
Wayne Fetterman
What are they so like, so. So you have early and. What's early? It's early.
Fetty Wap
Just blues, blues and. And not fade away and all of that stuff. Have you ever seen a television show? And I can't recommend it more highly enough. It's called the Tammy Show. It's the teenage Association Music International award Show or something like that. That. It was done here in Santa Monica, probably not far from where you're sitting right now. Are you in Santa Monica?
Wayne Fetterman
No.
Fetty Wap
Are you in Dennis.
Wayne Fetterman
West Hollywood.
Fetty Wap
Oh, you're in West Hollywood. Okay, so you're.
Wayne Fetterman
I'm at the Riot Hyatt. I'm at the High. I'm at the. I stay at the Riot Hyatt. Where.
Fetty Wap
I love it.
Wayne Fetterman
Where Led Zeppelin.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
And all that. Yeah. Dude. Dude. Jt, you know that like, I'm in.
Jeremiah
One of the most Last week.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah. I'm in the most fate. One of the most famous rock and roll halt hotels. Maybe like Chateau Marmont is definitely.
Jeremiah
Yeah. But they went.
Wayne Fetterman
But they just wait. Wayne is. Wayne is like shaking his head like, I shouldn't have said that, I'm assuming.
Fetty Wap
No, no, no. There's. There's a lot of bad stuff that happened in this hotel. It was a different time.
Wayne Fetterman
The guy jumped off the roof.
Fetty Wap
Well, yeah, I mean obviously that from the Comedy Store but yeah. But there was a lot of debauchery and I don't think a lot of people got rock musicians got boyfriend of the year awards here.
Wayne Fetterman
Is this where. Is this where Led Zeppelin did fish in the.
Fetty Wap
No, I don't think it was. I think it was.
Wayne Fetterman
That definitely popped fish in the.
Fetty Wap
The legend was that it was a baby shark, but it might not have.
Wayne Fetterman
Now I'm going to use DirecTV remote.
Fetty Wap
But anyway if. If you want to see what the Rolling Stones were about. Pretty Satisfaction pre Paint It Black. These are still early songs. P. Pre Ruby Tuesday. All of them. Check out the Tammy show and you'll see it's incredible. They closed the show. They follow a guy named James Brown. They follow James Brown on that show and the teen. It's. He's so friggin charismatic that Mick Jagger.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh yeah.
Fetty Wap
It's dripping with charisma.
Wayne Fetterman
He was also really good looking too. Like very.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Interesting looking like.
Fetty Wap
Yes.
Wayne Fetterman
Chief on the other hand has always looked like a guy in the Beetlejuice waiting room. You know he's really keeper esque. Yeah but brute. But Bruce. But. But Mick. Mick is incredible.
Fetty Wap
Incredible. And. And unlike the Beatles, not just the singer. Singer. And we play like the maracas and he's like you. It was just like would never. Strap on.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh dude, I'm. That's.
Fetty Wap
No but I'm just saying just Singer. Singer. He's like. That's what he. That's what he did. And if. When you see the Tammy show it is mind blowing and at the end all the acts come out and join them. It's a. It's a really wild scene. It's a really wild youth culture scene End of 1964 here in Santa Monica and. But anyway this is. That's the early part of the early Stones is that you know and then they have all these hits. They. I mean the big one of course the one that broke them with Satisfaction and that comes out after this album same. Oh oh, this is what we want. Yeah.
Jeremiah
You're watching the right thing.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fetty Wap
This is it.
Wayne Fetterman
Tammy Show.
Jeremiah
Oh wait, we went some volume here.
Wayne Fetterman
Can you hear it Playing drums.
Fetty Wap
He's dead.
Wayne Fetterman
You keep playing it. We'll be right back. Just keep playing it.
Jeremiah
They followed James Brown.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, here we go. Wait, hold on.
Jeremiah
Amazing.
Fetty Wap
It's amazing.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
And this is before any of their huge hits. Any of.
Jeremiah
We got major shaky legs.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Still doing. Still doing his move. Look how he might be 19 at this age. So total performer again. This is before Jumping Jack Flash. This is before Miss Shoes. This is before starting any of this stuff.
Jeremiah
They're just doing blues, right?
Fetty Wap
I'm kind of a rock and roll. For some reason. They don't want Bill Wyman. I guess he wants.
Wayne Fetterman
Look too old.
Fetty Wap
He's off to the left. Adrian.
Wayne Fetterman
Dude, women were so hot back then. Look like they're 30.
Fetty Wap
But then they. He also. We can stop this. We. He also like slows it down with. I think they. He might have done Time is on My side on this one, which is a cover song that they had a big hit it with such a great song. So it's just. They're just. I can't believe I get to talk about the Rolling Stones.
Wayne Fetterman
Thank you. That excited.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, they're one of the thing. They're one of the. The bands of this British evasion. It's like the Beatles and the Stones and then maybe Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. You know, I mean, it's like there's not that many, but there's not that many.
Wayne Fetterman
The jump is the Beatles, right? The Beatles are the ones that kick it into hard drive. So who at this time, who's more popular?
Fetty Wap
Beatles. The Beatles are more popular. The Beatles are more popular at all times. Except when the Beatles break up in 69. Actually announced in 70, the Rolling Stone starts doing these big concert tours, like two and a half. Don't forget when the Beatles performed 30 minutes. That's all you ever got of the Beatles. After Hamburg, you only got 30 minutes and was part of a variety show. The Stones would do two. Two hours, something like maybe more. And real concerts. Real like, oh, we're gonna go to a concert. And they started getting billed as the greatest rock and roll band in the world once the Beatles broke up. And that was there. Yes, yes. In 71. And also, you know, they had the. They had those four in a row. The four albums that I'm sure you're going to talk about with someone way bigger than me. That Exile. Yes. Sticky Fingers, Beggar's Banquet, Let It Blade. Those are the four. That's the Mount Rushmore of them. But again, that's after Satisfaction and Ruby Tuesday and Mother's Little Helper and all of these other great 60s songs. But then they took it to a whole nother level.
Wayne Fetterman
When did they when did they.
Jeremiah
This list already the highest grossing touring.
Fetty Wap
Let me see.
Jeremiah
Fans.
Wayne Fetterman
Number one. Yeah.
Fetty Wap
So that's the tour you saw. So 222.99 million. How much of that was your ticket?
Wayne Fetterman
I think we paid four or. No, 600 for tickets.
Fetty Wap
600? Yeah, we had.
Wayne Fetterman
We had awesome seats, though. We had awesome seats.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
I think Taylor Swift, man. She really just kills it.
Jeremiah
Raking in the loot. 3 billion.
Fetty Wap
But it looks like she. So. Yeah, but it's looking to.
Wayne Fetterman
Holy. Dude. I went to. Let me. Wait, go back, go back. I've been to. I went to see Rolling Stones, Coldplay, Elton John.
Fetty Wap
What?
Wayne Fetterman
Last year, Metallica. Keep going. I miss Madonna.
Fetty Wap
Right? Look at that. Paul McCartney.
Wayne Fetterman
I want to see. I want to see Eagles again. I just saw them at msg, but I want to see them at Sphere. The Sphere. I really like Eagles right now. They're really. They're.
Fetty Wap
Wait a minute. Artists with conscious revenue. They're number one all time.
Wayne Fetterman
No Eagles, according to over a billion.
Jeremiah
But where's Taylor Swift?
Fetty Wap
I don't know.
Wayne Fetterman
Ed. Shereen, you know, he. He's like up there too, but, you know, he just. He plays by himself.
Fetty Wap
That is one. Sharon, I will say that is one of the most amazing. That he played the Rose bowl by himself with just a looping machine and a guitar. What do you think about that? Reflect on that. For me, one person, not a band by himself, doing.
Wayne Fetterman
I don't know why he's so popular.
Fetty Wap
What?
Wayne Fetterman
I don't listen to his music.
Fetty Wap
I'll tell you why he's popular. You want me to explain it?
Wayne Fetterman
Please.
Fetty Wap
Federman theory. Authenticity. He seems very authentic. There's not. He's not show business. He doesn't seem like anything like that. He's like. I think people really respond to that in now in politics and in music. And again, look, there's. Bruce Springsteen is like, whatever. That's a show and all of that. But that one guy could do that without dancing. Nothing. You don't like those songs?
Wayne Fetterman
I don't know Any Shape of you.
Jeremiah
It's really good.
Wayne Fetterman
How's it go?
Fetty Wap
Really beautiful tunes.
Wayne Fetterman
The Shape of you. Is that how it goes? Is that the song.
Fetty Wap
You do know? The song you do know.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
According to. Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Tell you, dude, Fetty should be on every episode.
Fetty Wap
Dude, that is funny. No. All right.
Wayne Fetterman
Leaving money on the table.
Fetty Wap
That's my theory on Ed. On Ed Sheeran. That's.
Wayne Fetterman
What if. Wait, what if. What if Fetty joins the podcast and it becomes the biggest podcast? Like, we are messing with The Boys.
Jeremiah
I would love that.
Wayne Fetterman
We're the Joe Rogan Experience. Like people are coming on. It's Josh, Adam Myers, Wayne Fetterman.
Jeremiah
We're doing six hour episodes.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Jeremiah
Inviting Morty on for a quick side morning.
Fetty Wap
Already on for.
Wayne Fetterman
Daniel.
Jeremiah
The king of sidebars.
Fetty Wap
So anyway, listen to this. I didn't know about this album. As you know, I was alive when this album came out. I didn't know about it. None of my friends had this album. This was not a thing. This wasn't like a Beatles album or anything. Like all.
Wayne Fetterman
So why is it on here then?
Fetty Wap
A couple of reasons. One, the bias of the original list makers from Rolling Stone magazine. Really, really wanted to talk, not just about those big four albums we mentioned. And maybe there's a couple of Miss you and stuff like that. But the. But they want. They wanted to talk about the development of that band and this album is definitely part of it. But there's only one really Rolling Stone song that they ever sing is on that album and Red Rooster. And that's it. So it's not loaded with anything, but it does have a nice feel to it.
Wayne Fetterman
And Heart of Stone.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, that's it. Exactly, exactly. Heart of Stone. So. So that's, you know, that is on my favorite Rolling Stone album, by the way, which is called hot rocks. It's 1964 to 1971. I don't know if you know that album.
Wayne Fetterman
I do. I do. So there's something that goes. Hot Rocks. The rocks are hot with them. Hot, Hot Rocks.
Fetty Wap
You do know that. You do know this song clearly confirmed. But that's the. That's their greatest hits. That's their greatest Hits that they put out in 71 during Christmas. And that's just the best. I believe it's their biggest selling album, by the way. Is that Hot Rocks.
Wayne Fetterman
Really?
Fetty Wap
I would. They would have to be.
Wayne Fetterman
Did they have a lot of number one records? The. The Stones, Like, I feel like. I feel like. Yeah, because like when they. They're not like Bowie, where it's like was. Morty used to say, like every album was like. Like an event. You know what I mean? But. But they. Because they were. They've been around so long and they keep. Because I feel like they just keep releasing records throughout the years and none of them have really made a. Of a difference.
Fetty Wap
Well, they also kind of half broke up. Like Keith had his own record. Mick did that song with. With David Bowie. Speaking of David Bowie, the Dancing in the Street. You remember that when they did that? Yeah, they did a Live Aid as well, if I'm not mistaken. And then. So they. They were. And then they came back together for. I think it was the Steel Wheels. Is that the name of that album? I saw them and guess who I saw open for them. You don't have to guess. You know, good Living Color. Oh, not to show, but the band.
Wayne Fetterman
Personality. I love that you thought it was like the TV show, like Tommy Davidson, like, went out there with Alan Greer, and they're like, you can be who you want, not be in living Color.
Jeremiah
That was fun DJing up in the.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, exactly. What was the name of the clown that Damon Wayans.
Wayne Fetterman
Homie the Clown, Homie don't play classic. That was. That's. Dude, that show. I mean, come on.
Fetty Wap
If that show had opened up for the Rolling Stones, I mean, it would have been.
Wayne Fetterman
It would have been awesome.
Jeremiah
More star power than the Rolling Stones.
Fetty Wap
Yeah. And then Mad TV open for Metallica. It was a fun time.
Wayne Fetterman
The Ben Stiller show and Coldplay.
Fetty Wap
But here is the other band that opened for them. Guns and Roses. Both. Guns and Roses, Yes. And they. That was at the, I believe, the Los Angeles Coliseum, which is going to host the 2028 Summer Olympics, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, correct.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, I think you're right for it. Now.
Fetty Wap
They're prepping for. Right now. They're painting that thing, dude.
Wayne Fetterman
I mean, what are they gonna do with all the homeless people, man? They got to clean this city up, dude.
Fetty Wap
Well, we'll do it. We'll do it.
Jeremiah
They're starting with the airport.
Fetty Wap
We will do it. We will take care of it. But yeah, so. So anyway, that's the. That's the Rolling Stones. And they've been, you know, guess they keep putting out an album and every once in a while have like a hit, you know, or Beast of Burden or something like that. But basically, after. To me, after 74, you know, after exile, it's. It's. They basically became. Well, you know, they're just covering their early stuff and putting, you know, and doing a couple new songs.
Wayne Fetterman
Don't.
Jeremiah
I mean, nine number one albums.
Fetty Wap
How many?
Jeremiah
Nine.
Fetty Wap
Okay, let's see. So let's see if. See, look at this. So even their great albums didn't go to number one.
Wayne Fetterman
God, it's crazy. Hey, everybody. So you guys have probably heard me talk about how I've been in bands my whole, whole life. I love writing songs and performing in front of crowds. Just like with comedy, as a musician, it can be kind of hard to cut through the noise and really stand out as an artist, I feel like half the music projects I've been in have ended just because we couldn't figure out the answer to that eternal question of how do we get people to hear us? But then again, that was before there was Distrokid. Distrokid is a digital music distribution service that brings your sound to the the masses. It's a one stop shop for getting your songs on itunes, Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon, Deezer, Tidal and many more. What's Deezer? I never even heard of Deezer. How many of them are there? I know all that. That's like the holy grail of streaming services though. And, and getting paid. They want to. We want to get you paid for your music. That's huge because a lot of bands go broke before they get big. But Distrokid collects earnings and payments and sends 100% of these earnings to artists minus banking fees and applicable taxes.

Jeremiah
38 top 10 albums though. That's crazy.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah. So that's interesting. And they're just. I mean, and again, they didn't start out as songwriters like that, they were able to. The two of those dudes were able to do it. There's just incredible. Right?
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Incredible songs. Just incredible songs. It's only rock and roll, But I like. I mean. So start me up. I mean, start me up.
Wayne Fetterman
Start me up is like. That's how they. That's how they open.
Fetty Wap
What about that song? What about that song Sympathy for the devil? Have you heard that thing?
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, that is black. Paint it black and. And the movie full metal jacket. Dude, scorsese. Scorsese has used. I always wanted to do that with. With marin because, you know, Marin loves the stone so much. I always wanted not. Not painted black, But I wanted to do gimme shelter. Well, don't be. But now you're doing all right. Just the round red knife. I'm doing brown sugar now.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's all right. And you're. They don't sing that song anymore. You know that song got canceled.
Wayne Fetterman
Did it really? Black, so. Yeah, well, it's black. How can it taste so good? Dude, my voice is gone, right? This sucks, dude. I'm not sick, but, like, I'm the. The weather is just so dry here.
Fetty Wap
Oh, complaining about california weather. Just so I'm clear, You're complaining about the weather in california? In southern California.
Wayne Fetterman
Here's the thing, dude. Like, you see my.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, let me.
Wayne Fetterman
Fingers.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
I've got. I've got. I've got cracks in my skin, and it hurts.
Fetty Wap
What do you think?
Wayne Fetterman
They wake up every morning? I don't know. I think it's going back and forth between. Between new york and los angeles, and the. The weather changes, and it's definitely.
Fetty Wap
You do eat pretty healthy. You're not like me, Correct?
Wayne Fetterman
Well, what do you eat?
Fetty Wap
Food that is fast. Well, I want it. They make it. It's there. They give it to me. I give them some money, and I get out of there.
Wayne Fetterman
So I.
Fetty Wap
That's why I like my food right now.
Wayne Fetterman
Right now. I'd say I'm eating. I'm eating like. Like, I'm only eating, like, one meal a day right now. I just. I don't know. I went out and, like, got chilaquiles yesterday at this taco place. And then I didn't eat dinner. I didn't eat lunch. I just had, like, a cookie or something later that night.
Fetty Wap
And. Cookies?
Wayne Fetterman
No, I had chile killes, which is, like, Mexican. Like a mexican breakfast dish where they, like, do, like. It's like scrambled nachos. You never had it?
Fetty Wap
No. Can I recommend the crunchwrap supreme at Taco Bell. Just throwing it out as an option. My finger. Look at my fingertips.
Wayne Fetterman
Healthy. Not cracked.
Fetty Wap
Not cracked. Speaking of Stevie Wonder, I would.
Wayne Fetterman
I would. I'm not opposed to Taco Bell at all. I mean, Taco Bell is delicious.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Just, you know, it's gonna kill you. All right.
Fetty Wap
The guy who can't speak and is bleeding from his fingers.
Jeremiah
So you said paint it black on Full Metal Jacket, but what are the best Rolling Stones appearances on scores and soundtracks? What is the Fighter?
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, I would say, dude, give me Shelter. Give Me Shelter. Scorsese uses that song so much, I think in. I would be. I would. I would. I honestly, I would love to find out how many times he's used Give Me Shelter. That's a good question, because I bet you he's done it. I bet you he's done it.
Jeremiah
At least from the Departed, it has it here.
Wayne Fetterman
Departed. No, he's done the Departed. He's done Goodfellas. He's done Casino. He did it. Kundan. The one about the Dalai Lama. He used it for that. He used it. Age of the Innocence.
Fetty Wap
He did not.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, he did. Dude, I love.
Fetty Wap
So anyway, so I was. When I got the call, when you got. Sent me the text to do, were you. I was. I couldn't believe it. I was like, is this good? Because I'm used to, as, you know, professor long hair level music on this show.
Jeremiah
Billy Blues.
Fetty Wap
Bland, Bobby Blues.
Wayne Fetterman
Wayne, we need your help.
Fetty Wap
Tell me who it is. Who is. Is it the Beatles? Is it Zeppelin?
Wayne Fetterman
No.
Fetty Wap
Okay, wait, is Bruce Springsteen.
Wayne Fetterman
No, it's.
Fetty Wap
Is it Madonna?
Wayne Fetterman
It's Puna Singh, a northern Himalayan chanter that did a record that eventually Paul Simon kind of used. This is what. This is the. This is eight records before Greece land.
Fetty Wap
Right, right, right. This. Right. This is how we got in. This is how we get into that. Yeah. What number is it on the list? What number is it?
Wayne Fetterman
This one? Oh, aren't the fake one or the f. Fake one? Oh, the fake one. Fake one is. Is number 372.
Fetty Wap
He's so high for an album I've never heard.
Wayne Fetterman
I know, dude, but it's. It's important, I guess, according to these old white guys. No, dude, this was. I love when I get to gift you with this. And I tried to get you to do Harley, too, remember?
Fetty Wap
Let's not talk about it. He goes, he's gonna make me look bad. It's gonna make me look bad.
Wayne Fetterman
Please. No, he wrote. He just wrote back, please.
Jeremiah
Mazda. Bonnie took one for the team, actually. That was great.
Wayne Fetterman
That was a great episode. Great dude. And he knew it enough. And, you know, this is just a tough. This is like a tough few weeks. Just.
Fetty Wap
I guess I'm surprised. I'm just surprised because Bob marley has sold 75 million.
Wayne Fetterman
We all. Well, I didn't know this.
Jeremiah
Josh told me about Legend for the last.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Jeremiah
How many years?
Wayne Fetterman
20 years.
Jeremiah
It's the number one album.
Fetty Wap
Album.
Wayne Fetterman
So we thought we were gonna get Citizen Cope for it. My. My buddy who's a singer songwriter, he is gonna do Exodus in a few months. That's what he wants to do. So. So by the time we got to that, then she started. Then Emily starts shout, you know, throwing out Hail Marys. We thought we had nick hexum from 311. Yeah. The lead singer, 311. And. And he. We probably could have gotten him if we had a few more. We had another week. You know what I mean, Jay? But like, it just, just. It fell through and then, and then it just got scattery. We're like, who do we ask? And this, this. And then, you know, when I get the text to you, it's like, you.
Fetty Wap
Know, I know, I know.
Wayne Fetterman
You know where we're at.
Fetty Wap
There's the barrel. There's the barrel. There's a thing we've near the bottom.
Wayne Fetterman
We need to record it tomorrow between 3pm and 3.30pm and then the way.
Fetty Wap
You put it out, because you, you know, I love being the guy like, oh, in a crunch, Wayne can come up in a second and do all this. Like, all of that appeals to me as a person and as a friend to be like, oh. I'm like. But when you said Bob Marley, I just went, please, no.
Wayne Fetterman
Please, please, no, no, please.
Fetty Wap
That is not nice. And it's weird that I can't connect to that music because it is. People think it's the most joyous music on the planet Earth, that it's life affirming, that it's of the people, the thing, the message. One love. What is it? One love. One.
Wayne Fetterman
One love. Yeah, yeah. Let's get together and feel all right. Oh, well. By the way, Wayne, if you do Bob Marley, you don't do Rolling Stone.
Fetty Wap
Oh, right. Okay.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah. You. You would have. You wouldn't have. You wouldn't been doing this one because we couldn't. We. I mean, that. That would be nuts, dude. We just double dip Wayne Fetterman. But which, which I would love and you know it like 100. We could do it. I. Dude, we did Professor Long Hair. And Bobby Blue Bland very close to one another. But. But Emily, my favorites.
Fetty Wap
One of my. If I can reminisce was, please. The Jerry Lee Lewis, all killer, no filler. Oh, that was incredible. That was one of our best freaking great.
Wayne Fetterman
So we've got so many great moments. You've. You've accounted for 5% of this podcast. You know, that.
Fetty Wap
That. Okay. Do you want to talk about this album?
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, dude, I got a filler.
Jeremiah
Fact. Stephen Van Zant of the E Street Band once wrote, the Rolling Stones are My Life.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Jeremiah
If it wasn't for them, I would have. I would have been a soprano for real. He would have turned into a. Oh, I gotcha.
Fetty Wap
I thought he went an opera singer in the metro. And it's weird because I always thought of them as more of. As an outdoor. But it's funny. Okay, Material People.
Wayne Fetterman
It's great. You tell us what's important, what's why, you know, wow, you. This is your chance.
Fetty Wap
Look, these are all. I'm looking at the list right now.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
The one that really sticks out for me is obviously Heart of Stone. I really think that it's a beautiful. It's really just a beautiful stone. Yeah. Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
That's actually it, though.
Fetty Wap
I really like it. Is it? And I really like his vocal on it. And also Jagger is an example of. You don't have to be a great singer to be a lead singer, because he's not a great. He's a great interpreter of songs. Right. You would you say he has a great voice?
Wayne Fetterman
No, I. I would never. I would never put him up there with like. Like, Paul McCartney has a beautiful voice.
Fetty Wap
John Lennon. Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
John Lennon.
Fetty Wap
Yeah. Or who's the guy from Queen? What was that guy's name?
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, Jeff Tate.
Fetty Wap
Yeah. Jeff Tate from Queen. Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Queen's Reich, you know. Right.
Fetty Wap
He's a great vocalist. And so. So anyway, Tarte of Stone, obviously, it's a single. And the three ones that really catch my eye are obviously Little Red Rooster, because I know what that meant to Brian Jones and that he got to play sly guitar on this incredible, you know, Willie Dixon song that was sung by Howlin. I mean, this is right up their alley and it became a hit for them. And. But I. Because I'm a boogie woogie piano player guy from the third from the forward, from the 40s. That's my genre. I love that genre. There's going to be no albums of those dudes. There's a song called down the Road a Piece, and if that is based on an old song from 1940. That was a boogie woogie song. And they really. You really get exactly why Rolling Stones became so popular, in my opinion. It's because they were able to really get a phenomenal groove going in their music. Just phenomenal.
Wayne Fetterman
Is this, Is this, like. Was this a very popular record for them? Like, like.
Fetty Wap
No, it didn't go to number one. It certainly.
Wayne Fetterman
No, no, no. But I mean, but I mean, it's, it's. It's like.
Fetty Wap
I think it was just. They were just still. Again, this is all pre Satisfaction.
Wayne Fetterman
So anything pre Satisfaction has changed everything, right?
Fetty Wap
Everything. And Satisfaction came to Keith Richards in a dream.
Wayne Fetterman
No recorded it.
Fetty Wap
Went back to sleep in the same way yesterday came to Paul McCartney in a dream.
Jeremiah
Come on.
Fetty Wap
Same thing.
Wayne Fetterman
When I'm trying to find. No, no, no, I get it. But I'm trying to find what I'm trying to find when it came out. When Satisfaction came out.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, this album came out early 65. Satisfaction came out probably by the summer of 65, because I remember when Sat Satisfaction came out, but it wasn't.
Wayne Fetterman
Satisfaction wasn't. And it wasn't on an album. It's. It was on. It's just a single.
Fetty Wap
It was a single, but then it was later on an album after this. But this is all pre Satisfaction, pre Mother's Little Helper, pre Paint It Black, which has that weird kind of like Indian mysticism sound to it. Another. All of this. So those are all like. To me, the quintessential Rolling Stones are like, oh, these guys are. Are really. I don't know if they're the Beatles, but they're friggin great. And just so, you know, at the beginning when they started out, they were the band of the juvenile delinquents. Especially in England. That's how they were. They were billed as the anti Beatles. The Beatles always were in the same suit, right?
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Always took the bow after all of that crap. They did none of that. They were like the. The bad boys. They were the bad boys of it. If again, now it looks. It seems quaint, right? But if you listen to their lyrics, they're very misogynistic. They're like under my thumb and they, you know, and all of that kind of stuff. I mean, obviously Brown Sugar is about a slave girl having sex with her. So it's like.
Wayne Fetterman
It's about a slave girl.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah. It's not great. It's not great.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah. Really?
Fetty Wap
Yeah. Look at the lyrics. Read the lyric. Read the lyrics.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, holy. Did you know that? I'm trying to.
Jeremiah
I Did not know that.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, in the stable they going get you. I'm sorry. Sorry.
Fetty Wap
But I mean, what a song. Brown Sugar. I mean it. And then jump it. Whatever. So this is right before they become as huge as you can get outside of the Beatles.
Wayne Fetterman
So outside of. So when Satisfaction came out, what was that?
Fetty Wap
Yes, that I do remember that I do remember as a kid.
Wayne Fetterman
So what was that? Like just overnight biggest band in the world type thing?
Fetty Wap
No, but because they had already tore. They. They were already. I had already heard of the band, but I didn't know, you know, I knew maybe Time is on my side or something like that. I don't know. I think it was a number one song and it was on the radio all the time. And they were. They just catapulted. Catapulted in the. You know, because there was other British Invasion band. There was the Herman's Hermits, there was Eric Burton and the Animals. There was. What's the guy? Mercy Customers. I can't think of that guy's name from. Yeah, so there was a bunch of other British bands, you know, that were in. And suddenly they just. Cat. I mean, but they were already good before. But Satisfaction was, you know, the fuzz guitar and all. Not that it was the first time fuzz guitar was used, but like the riff. Well, if you think of Whole Lot of Love or any of these riff songs, which just don't, you know. Yeah, it's all. That's all. It's all that. It's all.
Jeremiah
I'm reading that Brown Sugar, though, was removed from their set list in 2021.
Fetty Wap
And I don't know.
Jeremiah
He says, didn't they understand this was a song about the horrors of slavery?
Fetty Wap
Of course.
Jeremiah
And so it's kind of like hip hop or something like, you know.
Fetty Wap
Yes, yes.
Wayne Fetterman
If it was a song about the horrors, it would be like Brown Sugar. Brown Sugar. It wouldn't be like, It Rules the Black. It's the greatest thing ever.
Fetty Wap
So they did remove it, right? They don't. I don't think they sing it anymore.
Jeremiah
Oh, he did say, I would never write that song now. But until this point, it was the second most played song.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah. One of their best songs.
Fetty Wap
Would their number one be Satisfaction? I assume that's in every show.
Wayne Fetterman
I assume, sure. I think. But they. I think they. They. You start every show with Start Me.
Fetty Wap
Up Up, Start Me Up.
Wayne Fetterman
That's like, what a great way. That. That right there. Take My money, I'm jump.
Fetty Wap
I really like jumping Jack Fl. I. I mean, it's so Stupid to say you like that song. I mean, everyone likes these.
Wayne Fetterman
I love the movie Jumping Jack. Can I tell you that?
Fetty Wap
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Goldberg. Yeah. Such. That's such an underrated movie. You ever seen that? Jeremiah.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Jeremiah
Jumping Jack. What is it?
Wayne Fetterman
Jumping Jack Flash, where she. She just plays this like. Like, I don't know what. She just plays this woman that gets. That gets like roped into it like a. Like. Not a jewelry thief, but to help this guy out, and it's like a spy. It's really funny. My sister and I love the world back then. Yeah, she really was. So what were you about to say, Betty?
Fetty Wap
No, I was gonna say I like the. The other Whoopi Goldberg movie Sister under my thumb. I was. I don't want to say Branch, okay, Because I get in trouble anyway. But.
Wayne Fetterman
What.
Fetty Wap
Oh, wait, what was I going to say? Oh, but in the middle of this all, don't forget, they lose their. The guy that started the band, right? He dies in the pool.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
And they get. There's some drug arrests and they. They have to move out of England because of. For tax reasons. And they play the song that a lot of people think is the end of this. The concert. That's the end of the 60s. The Altamont Speedway concert. Are you familiar with that concert?
Wayne Fetterman
I am. I am. Tell us about it. Just so everybody knows.
Fetty Wap
Well, I mean, I'll do it briefly. I mean, it's.
Wayne Fetterman
Briefy.
Fetty Wap
This is. You know, we remember last time we talked about, you know, messenger service and all of those, you know, there 67 bands, obviously. Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead. So this is.
Wayne Fetterman
Is.
Fetty Wap
This is the dark side of the summer of love. Two summers later, in outside, 50 miles outside San Francisco at the Altamont Speedway. A free con, free concert. Socialist kids, flower power, the whole thing. We don't. We're rejecting your world. Your world. And for some reason, they hire the Hell's Angels to do security for the concert. I don't know who. Who made that call. I don't know who made that call. And. And then it. It just turned dark and violent and one of the concert goers, I believe, had a weapon on or something, ended up getting killed by the Hell's Angels.
Jeremiah
What about the acid in the beer kegs? Isn't that like, part of the story?
Fetty Wap
Oh, it is. All I.
Jeremiah
Again, the Hell's Angels spiked all the drinks.
Fetty Wap
It was dark. It was really dark. And a lot of people point to that moment is the end of the.
Wayne Fetterman
End of the flower, Right? Yeah.
Fetty Wap
The end of the flower power movement. And like, now we're. We're into a different era now. We're into singing about slave girls. So it's a whole different. It's a whole different.
Wayne Fetterman
I mean. I mean. Yeah, man. That's like. That's really. That really is like. It's a. It's a. It's because it was trying to be like Woodstock.
Fetty Wap
Yes.
Wayne Fetterman
And. And they just did everything wrong.
Fetty Wap
And you had to pay to go to Woodstock. I mean.
Wayne Fetterman
I mean, eventually they just picked over. Yeah, but did anybody ever get in trouble for that?
Fetty Wap
Yeah. I think one of the vendors lost his liquor license.
Wayne Fetterman
Is that true? I mean, to laugh, but.
Jeremiah
We'Re so jaded.
Fetty Wap
I know. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That poor gentleman died. That poor gentleman died. I don't. That's a good question. I know there's a film about it. The Ma Brothers, I believe, did that film. So.
Jeremiah
Ultimate free concert.
Fetty Wap
Yes. Yeah.
Jeremiah
Hunter was.
Wayne Fetterman
What's his face? He's like.
Fetty Wap
What was his name? Just so I don't.
Jeremiah
Alan Passara.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, everybody. And. And Keith. Not Keith, the other guy. I can't think. Mel. He bought him. Mel. God damn it.
Jeremiah
Sara was tried for murder in 71, but was acquitted on grounds of self.
Fetty Wap
Self defense. Because the guy did have a weapon, Right?
Jeremiah
Yeah. I think two other people died of a hit and run car accident and one drowned in an irrigation canal. In case you were wondering all.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Mick is like. He's like, please. He's like, just chill out. Like, please. Like. Yeah, it's. It's. I can imagine what that must have been like.
Jeremiah
And the Grateful Dead were supposed to. They were scheduled to perform after the Stones and did not play due to the increasing violence.
Wayne Fetterman
Wow.
Fetty Wap
I mean, it's a real you.
Wayne Fetterman
That murder killed my vibe. It's harsh in my mellow.
Fetty Wap
I was gonna do it. A 38 minute version of Trucking and now I don't think. I don't think I'm up to it. Dudes hire back to my Mercedes Benz.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, man. I am. It's really giving me a bad trip, man. Hilarious.
Fetty Wap
So anyway, this was fun. Thank you again. The Rolling Stones are just. Wow. I mean, what a powerhouse. And they're still going. You saw them this year. I mean, it's insane.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah. Is there anything we. Is there anything like that needs to be brought up about this that we're gonna miss?
Fetty Wap
I don't think. I mean, it's. You know, there's a bunch of COVID songs. They do, you know, this other song off the hook, which isn't great. A great song. And that's an original. Yeah, this is this whole thing. They're doing Chuck Berry songs.
Wayne Fetterman
So this record.
Fetty Wap
They're doing Bo Diddley songs. It's. It's like sort of a made up album. There's some singles over here. It's not.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, it's not really, but here. Let's do this. Rolling Stone have sold over 240 million records worldwide. Rock and Roll hall of Fame. They were inducted by Pete Townsend. Only artists to top the UK album charts in six different decades made more money than you two. Springsteen, Michael Jackson or the who. Since the formation, they have survived. Well, that's multiple feuds. 30 studio albums, 23 live records, 12 compilations, over 340 songs. Still not as many as the Shekels put out. My. My Jewish hip hop group though. The Stones ranked 4th best selling group of all time received and been nominated for multiple awards including only three Grammys. They only won three, but they've had 12 nominations. What if they. You know. You know what's also funny is like.
Fetty Wap
What.
Wayne Fetterman
Like the Beatles lost album of the year? Do you want to know for when they. When they. For Abbey road.
Fetty Wap
Okay, so that's 69. Yes. I'm gonna assume Bridge Over Troubled Waters.
Wayne Fetterman
Nope, they lost. We had this guest on. We had. We had the drummer from the band on.
Jeremiah
Oh, you got the machine.
Wayne Fetterman
No, we didn't have Brad on.
Fetty Wap
Now that's a good question. So I don't know Blood, Sweat and Tears.
Jeremiah
Boom Story we've heard by the way too.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah, he.
Wayne Fetterman
He told us a good Woodstock story. He's awesome, dude. He came to the jam. We're like buddies now. Took me and Nick. Huh.
Fetty Wap
One of their. My favorite songs are there. I mean, I love Spinning Wheel, but there's a song called Lucretia McIevil if you don't know it. That's your. That's your assignment for the. Not a Rolling Stone song. Not the Tammy Show. Lucretia McIevil is the name of the song.
Wayne Fetterman
I will go listen to it. Wild Tonight. Lucia. Blood, Sweat and tears.
Fetty Wap
All of it. All of it.
Wayne Fetterman
Ah, like a sweet girl she's wearing.
Jeremiah
I have one factoid.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, let me hear it.
Jeremiah
The minor notes on the initial pressings of this album.
Fetty Wap
Go ahead, tell me.
Jeremiah
Contained producer Andrew Lou Goldham, who ultimately became their manager. But his advice to the record buying public, which was quickly temporarily removed from sub. Subsequent pressings. This is what it said. This is caps the Stones new disc within cast deep in your pockets for the loot. To buy this disc of groovies and fancy words if you don't have the bread, see that blind man, knock him on the head, steal his wallet and behold, you have the loot and if you put in the boot. Good, another one sold, dude.
Fetty Wap
So that they wanted. Literally, that's. Again, this goes. This refers back to what I was talking about earlier, that they were the band of the hoods, of the ruffians, of that. And, like, this is the. This is Stones. Yeah. And no smiles if you don't have the money. You see that blind guy over there? Hit him, steal his money, take him with your boots and then buy the record. They're like Oasis, just so you can hear Red Rooster.
Wayne Fetterman
Oasis is like the. Is like the band of, like, the. You know, the soccer hooligan. I think so. I think Oasis is very. Dude, when I went to see. I want to see Liam and John Squire at the Brooklyn Paramount, which is a beautiful theater in. In downtown Brooklyn. I think it's downtown. I don't really know Brooklyn that well, but this theater is amazing.
Fetty Wap
You're saying the Brooklyn Paramount is in Brooklyn? Brooklyn, yeah. Okay, let me. I'm writing this down. Hold on.
Wayne Fetterman
Okay. Like, you're making Brooklyn, New York.
Fetty Wap
Go ahead. Sorry, sorry, I'm sarcastic, but they were.
Wayne Fetterman
No, I love it. That's why. Dude, that's why.
Fetty Wap
Go ahead.
Wayne Fetterman
Go ahead. You're here because of that. You're here because of the genius that is Fetty Wap.
Fetty Wap
Okay.
Wayne Fetterman
And then we. Yeah, but then we go. And it was. It was like all the. Everybody in the audience were all soccer hooligans and they were all doing these chants and, dude, it was so awesome. It was so awesome. Like, just that. Like, that, like, British people rule. I'm going to see Oasis in England, so I'm very excited about that.
Fetty Wap
I always thought they were more girl band. I always thought they were more like the chicks like them.
Wayne Fetterman
I mean, chicks love them, but dude, guys love them, dude. Also, Liam's like, a badass. Like, he's a. He's. He's.
Fetty Wap
Did they get in fights on stage as well?
Wayne Fetterman
Not like, oh, here, pull up. Hold on. Pull up. Let me see if I can find the link to it. I want you to see the Brian Jonestown. Hold on. Brian.
Jeremiah
Jonestown, Nolan, Liam, fight on stage, 2014, man.
Wayne Fetterman
No, but they. They don't really. Hold on. Wait.
Fetty Wap
The Eagles also had. Or. Excuse me, Eagles is the name of the band.
Wayne Fetterman
Dig. This is what you want. You want the movie. Dig.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, I want to say. Oh, I'M gonna watch the whole movie.
Wayne Fetterman
Nobody here watch. I think you gotta watch this part. Is this it?
Fetty Wap
It's only.
Wayne Fetterman
Oh, yeah. No, no, no, no, no. Here, this is. It's on. Tick Tock. God damn it. It. I can't wait until they shut Tik Tock down. Oh, Jer, I just sent you the thing.
Fetty Wap
Oh, I see the link. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's. I would say it's 2 minutes in. 2 minute 50 in.
Wayne Fetterman
This was at a showcase for, like, industry. This wasn't like some show.
Fetty Wap
They're like, guys, ICM is in the crowd.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
This is one of the best rock and roll documentaries about, like.
Fetty Wap
Okay, okay.
Wayne Fetterman
Just, I. Because what's really cool is, like, they, they could have been this enormous band. They're so. He's so talented, that guy Anton. Like, he, he made. And he's hugely influenced by the Rolling Stones. He made a song called, like, the. My Majesty's Satanic.
Fetty Wap
Right, right, right.
Wayne Fetterman
Basically, you know, it's. He's very heavily influenced. Genius. I don't throw that word around a lot. That guy is. Musically, I'm telling you, you're gonna dig the music that you, that you hear. I think you will.
Fetty Wap
Well, you know, they, the Stones did have this very public humiliation. And with. They did a vert. Like a version of Sgt. Pepper's a psychedelic album that was called, like, their Majestic.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this or something.
Fetty Wap
Right? Yeah. And it was a big bomb. And then they come, they're like, oh, really? Okay. And now we're gonna come back and write I, you know, have four.
Wayne Fetterman
Is that true? Is that, that, that record kind of was like a bomb. And then they, they switched gears.
Fetty Wap
Oh, it was a huge emotional. Yeah, it was a big. It was a public humiliation. And then the drug thing. And then they started then Beggars Banquet, and then they're on their way.
Wayne Fetterman
What about, what about. Angela used to always talk about blues.
Fetty Wap
Right, right.
Wayne Fetterman
What is that? That's like a documentary?
Fetty Wap
No, that was a. If I'm not mistaken, that was a song that, like, was least, but it was not officially released, so it was like this underground tape. And then I, I, I'm not sure I know. They also did something called the Rock and Roll Circus at that time, which they had John Lennon on, and it was Eric Clapton. It's a, like a TV show that didn't really, really go anywhere either. I think there were some rights situations with that. And then the next thing you know, they're like, playing stadiums and, you know, Big Lips are behind them. And they're, you know, they're branded. And it's crazy. It's incredible.
Wayne Fetterman
He's doing.
Jeremiah
He's starting coke on the. In the movie, Mick Jagger, right?
Wayne Fetterman
Groupies injecting heroin.
Jeremiah
Oh, my God.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, These. These were dudes. I mean, what.
Wayne Fetterman
They're just the coolest.
Fetty Wap
They're a very interesting band. They're very.
Wayne Fetterman
Really are.
Jeremiah
Look at this.
Wayne Fetterman
I see why Marin loves them. Like, he. Like, he loves. Like, he's obsessed with them.
Fetty Wap
The Satanic Majestics. Request. Is that what it's called?
Jeremiah
The Satanic Majesty's Request.
Fetty Wap
Request, yeah, that's it. I can never remember. I just remember when that thing came out, they were like, what the hell?
Wayne Fetterman
There's some good songs on there. There's 2000 year old man. There's the two. There's. What else? There's. There's. She. She sees in color or whatever. She's a rainbow.
Jeremiah
Oh, that is a great song.
Fetty Wap
No, this. This album actually has been reevaluated through the years and has a better reputation than when it came out. But everyone was like, at the time. Yeah. I mean, a little. Go back to those ratings. I'm looking at those ratings. All right, never mind. There you go.
Jeremiah
I got too far.
Wayne Fetterman
He's terrible.
Jeremiah
Oh, down here.
Wayne Fetterman
Sorry.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. These are pretty good.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Entertainment Weekly gave it a C. But.
Fetty Wap
It'S not like one stars. I mean, at the time, it was a real. I mean, don't forget, this comes out 1267. 6-1-67 is when Sgt. Peppers comes out. 67 is also the summer of Love, which we'd already talked about. Like, it was a real. Like, oh, we can do psychedelic music. And I think this is one of the criticisms of the Rolling Stones that they kind of jumped on that and then miss you with the disco and all of that. That they were always, like, trying to be, like, relevant, which they don't have to be. They're the Rolling Stones. They're incredible and. All right, gentlemen, that's it.
Wayne Fetterman
Dude. Well, let's do our favorite songs. Let's get us out of here. Let's do it the way we always do it. Right?
Fetty Wap
Okay. Yeah, go. You go first.
Wayne Fetterman
I. I'm gonna go. My favorite song. Let me look at the list again. I think my favorite song off of this is probably no Woman, no Cry. Oh, wait, I'm looking at the Bob Mar thing. Hold on. Right here.
Fetty Wap
Stand up. Sit down. What is the name of that song?
Wayne Fetterman
I think I. I mean. I mean, Hardest Stone is the one that I, that I knew and I felt very comfortable with Little Red Rooster probably because I have like a very. Because of that situation with Mark. I think that's a, That's a good one. So I think I'm gonna pick that.
Fetty Wap
I love Little Red Rooster. And by the way, when the first time I saw the Rolling Stones in that Guns N'ROSES Living Color concert, not only did he do Little Red Rooster, but Eric Clapton comes out. Oh, oh, yeah. And does. And just brings down the house. There's actually footage of it online. We don't have to bring it up. Not of the one at the Coliseum, but when they do it in New York, he. With the whole tour, he would come out and play that song. And it, it's. It was one of the greatest things I'd ever seen.
Wayne Fetterman
I love that. I love that so much. What's your least favorite song?
Fetty Wap
Oh, that's a good question. My least favorite song. You know, I, I don't know. It might be off the hook. It might be their song. Like these, these others are like, there's your good cover songs.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah.
Fetty Wap
Or maybe, maybe, maybe Down Home Girl, the Jerry Lieber song. This is Lieber before Stoler, I guess. And.
Wayne Fetterman
I get that. That's what I love about this podcast. I know that name.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, yeah. You know that guy. Jailhouse Rock. Come on, man. Come on, come on. You know Jerry Lieber?
Wayne Fetterman
Jerry Lieber. Yeah, the Libra Clan.
Fetty Wap
Two Jewish guys from the Queens or whatever are.
Wayne Fetterman
Jack Nietzsche played piano, Tambourine on the track.
Fetty Wap
I know it's interesting. That was. He was like their. Ian, you can see is also played the piano. He was the guy that got demoted to sometime piano player. If you ever see a picture of him, he has like a, like a big Jay Leno chin and it's like, you know, show business is tough. They wanted a young band for the young kids. Right. You saw the Tammy show. We watched that today, dude. It's.
Wayne Fetterman
It's. That's right. That's the whole thing, dude. That's the whole thing. To get rid of it. Tick Tock is for young people. I'm. They don't want no gristled 45 year old man trying to be younger. That would be my never been my blues name. Bleeding Fingers Miles. Josh. Bleeding Fingers Miles. Bleeding Fingers Josh. Adam.
Fetty Wap
This ain't no joke.
Wayne Fetterman
This is my song. Heart of Stone. Heart of Stone. This is my song also.
Fetty Wap
That might be the song to make out to. It's Heart of Stone.
Wayne Fetterman
Really? Yeah.
Fetty Wap
That's a nice song.
Wayne Fetterman
Love you called it make out to. Because you know what I was gonna say.
Fetty Wap
I know. That's where we differ. That's where we differ. I like make out music.
Wayne Fetterman
I'm gonna miss you this. I'm gonna miss you this. New Year's.
Fetty Wap
Happy New Year to all the listeners. Oh, 2025. 2025. I say 225. There's no correct way.
Wayne Fetterman
How many episodes will Wayne fetterman do in 2025? How many did he do in. In 20? Can we break them up by year? Do we have that real quick?
Jeremiah

Wayne Fetterman
Pre pandemic. Then you did two. Damn, that's crazy. You did. You only did. You didn't do any in 2020, which is insane. Holy. Dude, you really. You won a hundred records without doing one. Then you did both. Yardbirds.
Fetty Wap
Oh, my God.
Wayne Fetterman
In 21. In the Spanish engineer having a rave.
Fetty Wap
Up in the engineer one.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, then. Then you came back and you did 2 and 22. You did sun and white light, white heat. Then 23. This is where we start. This is where we start falling off.
Fetty Wap
Leaning. Leaning on the federal.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, dude, 23. You did Smokey. You did CSN.
Fetty Wap
Yes.
Wayne Fetterman
You did your favorite Jerry Lee Lewis. I'll Kill Her. No filler.
Fetty Wap
That might be my favorite.
Wayne Fetterman
And then, dude, 24 was your year. You did Professor Long Hair, Bobby Blue Bland.
Fetty Wap
Fans you've never heard of, right?
Wayne Fetterman
Cream. We Cream.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, of course. Wheels of Fire. Did we do.
Wayne Fetterman
Yeah, Wheels of Fire. But then, but then you did. You did the Beano record. But that was also a Joe Bonamassa record.
Fetty Wap
Yes, that was me just asking him questions about the width of his guitars.
Wayne Fetterman
What strings for you and like two other guys listening to this podcast.
Fetty Wap
Believe me, he was very informative. Like, I liked how self deprecating Joe Panamasa was.
Wayne Fetterman
He was great, dude. He was. He's a really cool guy. And then you did. You did the. You did another sit in with Morty. That was really a Morty episode. Quicksilver Messenger Service. And then you did the Stooges. So you did 1, 2, 3. So including this one. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. You did 7 out of 50. Out of 50. What? 52 weeks out of the year.
Fetty Wap
Yeah. That's almost two months of the 12 months.
Wayne Fetterman
Jesus Christ. They.
Fetty Wap
But you know what? But the. If my legacy can be one thing, it's not long hair. It's not Bobby Blue, Bland. It's not any. Any of those.
Wayne Fetterman
Even jll.
Fetty Wap
It's Wayne, please. No. Fetterman.
Wayne Fetterman
Please. No. Bob, please, no. You didn't do it. Don't worry. And then what's your thing to end this? How do you want to. How do you want to tell the audience to go, listen?
Fetty Wap
I mean, it's almost ridiculous to sing the praises of the Rolling Stone. Stones. It's stupid. It's like, if you don't know that this is one of the seminal acts in show business over the last 65, 70 years, you. You just don't know. It's Rolling Stones. I mean, it's. They're still. They're like competing with Taylor Swift as 80 year olds.
Wayne Fetterman
I know. That's crazy. It's really. When you. When you. When you say it like that, it's crazy that they're in their 80s and they're still the biggest. That just shows you how bad music is that these guys. Or like, why are they touring?
Fetty Wap
It's.
Jeremiah
They don't need it.
Fetty Wap
I don't know. I. It's got to be fun to do these shows, right? I would think. I would think.
Wayne Fetterman
I mean, they hate each other, don't they?
Fetty Wap
No, no, no, no. I. Who knows? It's a big corporation. You know, They're a big corporation and they're just. But. And it also, to me, shows the power of a. And we talked about this last time, the great, great frontman of a charismatic front man. The power of that. To draw your band out and make it special. And there's no doubt about it, whatever it is. Mick Jagger has that.
Wayne Fetterman
He really does. He really does. You know what?
Fetty Wap
Right.
Wayne Fetterman
But also. You got it too, buddy.
Fetty Wap
Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
You got it.
Fetty Wap
A lot of people compare us.
Wayne Fetterman
No, you're. You're one of my favorites. You know that? That's why I can't wait to have you back. We'll. Well, hold on. Let's look at what we're going to probably have you back for. You might as well do it now.
Fetty Wap
Do not.
Jeremiah
Please, no.
Wayne Fetterman
Veteran, please. No, hold on. I got it right here. I'll tell you. Right. I can tell you right now, which I'm assuming because Emily tries to pawn off somebody else, and I go, just go, Wayne. Wayne. The other guys are fine.
Fetty Wap
Wayne Carpenters. Oh, which one close to you? Yeah, I do that.
Wayne Fetterman
But I. But I also might be able to get Burr for that because she's a drummer. Yeah, yeah, I could see him. I could see him wanting to do that. So, like, we got From.
Fetty Wap
By the way, from Downey, California, right down the road.
Wayne Fetterman
No, so we got. So we got Todd Rundgren, please.

Jeremiah
It's just when he's available.
Wayne Fetterman
Don't worry about me. But you know what I mean, dude? Like, why not?
Fetty Wap
Why not? Why not?
Wayne Fetterman
Because the world changes. Let's work ahead a little bit. Yeah. No, Jer, like, I love you, but.
Fetty Wap
Yeah, I am for it. I'm for it.
Wayne Fetterman

Fetty Wap
Yeah, that might be something. Yeah.
Wayne Fetterman
Definitely. We got Cross, He, Stills, Nash and Young. I could see you doing that. Oh, we should get. We should get Wayne to do NW UA straight out Of Compton.
Jeremiah
Don't typecast people like that.
Fetty Wap
You know, you should do a joke about that band.
Wayne Fetterman
How so? What do you mean?
Fetty Wap
I don't know if I can say. I think I can do it without saying it. Okay. I go. I always thought the title, the name of that band was redundant. It's like once you go with the the N, I feel like the wa is redundant.
Wayne Fetterman
It's kind of pointless.
Jeremiah
That's a good point.
Fetty Wap
Right? Do you really need that qualifier after you start with the end?
Wayne Fetterman
What else?
Fetty Wap
We got as edgy as they get.
Wayne Fetterman
That's. That's edgy for you. We've got. And then the Birds. We could have you. I could see you doing Birds younger than yesterday. I could definitely see you doing. Oh, Definitely see you doing the Meters. Rejuvenation.

You know what this is? What I'm learning is you don't know me. You don't know me.
Wayne Fetterman
The Meters. We did them already, didn't we? Yeah, we did them with Marshall Warfield. Right.
Jeremiah
We should pair Fetty Wap with another guest that we did. Excited.
Wayne Fetterman
I know.
Jeremiah

Fetty Wap
Yeah, I would like that. I would like.
Wayne Fetterman
He should be the co host. We need to talk about it. I'm telling you. I know he doesn't want to do it it because he likes coming in and dropping his science and leaving. But, you know, I think, you know, pn. I'll make. We need to make Fetty Wap merch. We should make Fetty Wap. Merch. If we. Dude, if we. To the people listening right now, if. Would you buy Fetty Wap merch? Tweet at us. Let us know. Yeah, dude. Oh, dude. Next year we got Radiohead coming up. Okay. Computer.

Jeremiah
Still listening at this point.
Fetty Wap
