And as always, the KSR Pre Show is brought to you by Italics, fine Italian dining right

here in Lexington, Kentucky at the city center on Main Street. That's where I'm at today. Shannon

the dude is in Louisville and hope everybody had a good, fun, sweaty weekend. Shannon, I don't

know about you, but I was sweating a lot. Yeah, I got to tell you, Friday night, we played the band, Alice Blue Game.

Oh, yeah, Mount Washington.

It was so hot out there.

And I seriously don't think I have ever sweat it more in my entire life than I did Friday night up on stage.

By the end of the night, it looked like I had just jumped into a lake.

That's how

sweaty and nasty and just flat out hot that it was. But we did have a great crowd out there. So I want to say thanks to Mount Washington for showing up and city of Mount Washington for having us out there. It was a lot of fun, even though it was really, really hot. Yeah, that's the hometown, too, right? I mean, so nothing like going back home to play a show.

I mean, so what was the get-up? Were you in pants? Oh, yeah, I'll wear what I'll wear on stage. I don't let the... Well, see, there you go. Yeah, I don't let the weather determine my look, you know? Like, I'm still going to wear what I wear. So you're not going up there in some cargo shorts?

No, no, no.

A front man should not in some cargo shorts?

No, no. A front man should not ever wear cargo shorts, in my opinion. Oh, come on. Come on. You got to look like you belong up there, not look like you're some, you know, guy off the street that's jumping up on stage and playing with a band. You got to look the part. So, yeah, so jump into those skinny jeans. That'll be your lead singer. You think baseball players go, oh, it's too hot.

I'm going to put my shorts on. You got to look the part. So yeah, so jump into those skinny jeans. That'll be your...

That's right.
