Fred, what's it like to work with Hardy and Wally?

What a golden ticket I've gotten?

There you have it.

Toucher and Hardy resumes on the Sportsland. Gotcha.

This is a lounge feel.

This is just a lounge feel. This is video game music.

It's like a lounge.

You want to something upbeat, you know?

This is loud.

This sounds like lounge music from the early odds.

Yeah, that was a thing for a while, remember?

Oh, it was a big thing.

Big thing.

Which I didn't mind so much because there was no pressure to dance. Yeah. The club, they used to have seats and chairs at the club, and then you would go in. Well, before that, you had the swing music, and that you were compelled to dance. I was far too young for that. You were too, then you're younger than me. There's no way you were around. Yeah, but it was such a big thing in Boston that like, I mean, I wasn't able to go into the clubs and like take advantage of it, but I was very aware of it. That's got to be really embarrassing if you went balls out into swing. You know what's funny? This is the irony, Fred. You know, I was a total band geek. I played in the jazz band in high school, but then when the swing music got big, everyone's like, oh, isn't that good for you?

I'm like, no, that stuff's corny, man.

Like, who wants that?

There's... a total band geek. I played in the jazz band in high school, but then when the swing music got big, everyone's like, oh, isn't that good for you? I'm like, no,

that stuff's corny, man. Like, who wants that? There's Brian Setter's revival for five seconds. Oh, boy, I worked at Borders when Brian Satcher's revival came out. Jump-Jiving. You want to talk about N-Caps. Oh, did they have an N-CAP for Brian Sonsors Orchestra?

That's right.

I was just had moved to Atlanta. I was at one of his shows at the Hard Rock in Vegas, like when the swing dance thing, like swingers had come out and people are doing it. And like, yeah, I think we were there anyway, but it was just, okay, we'll pop into pop into the joint. So Brian Setser, all right, see what it's like. And there they are, the people in the zoot suits, and they're doing their swing dancing, and they're swinging each other around and flailing around. Like, why don't you stop it? Jesus, Jones. You know, it's funny. Enough with that. Over the break, Fred, I read the book, a book about like Youth Brigade and B.Y.O.

And all that, like the Stern brothers in the hardcore punk scene in L.A.
