Transcript
00:00All right, country fest is coming to an end and we could not end this without talking to our friend and our headliner
00:07Justin Moore man. God, it's so great to see you pal. Good to see you guys man. It's awesome
00:11I've been told to shut my mouth. So go ahead Tammy. I thought we actually did actually just to leave
00:18Thank you, it's getting crowded over here
00:23So are the antler lights on the stage yours or were those needs I thought they were yours
00:30They're mine. I was gonna say cuz they didn't seem like they quite came down
00:33I'm looking at those and our boss is like, holy blank beep
00:40Yeah, they are it's we got them
00:43Last year, maybe the year forward. I tell you the the funniest part. Well, it wasn't funny at the time
00:49It is now trying to cross the border going to
00:52Canada they do not like
00:54That at all because they're real antlers. Yes, I know but they were shed. So what is the problem? I
01:02Don't know. You're not supposed to cross the border with I guess animal parts
01:08Apparently, that's a good tip a good tip for the kids. Don't try and cross the border with animal parts. Thank you
01:14I love them. I think they're awesome. Thank you. It makes it feel like that's like your cabin
01:20Yeah, it's kind of like a saloon
01:23Cabin-y kind of thing. Yeah, it reminds me of my pool house
01:29Which is where our bar is
01:33Yeah, I just got it slowly for me, okay, right, okay. Yeah, I
01:38Thought it was like spoiled spoiling when you're spoiled. Oh, okay. Oh, yeah, we're still gonna make fun of your link
01:44I'm sorry. Your accent is just yeah, it's it's it's awesome. So dude, we have been talking about you so much in the
01:51You know just previewing the show tonight and our relationship together
01:56Since you started in your first single with us in in our little studio in Madison, Wisconsin
02:01And we've told the listeners all the stories about that
02:03We've told our fans about our prank the first year at stagecoach where you were so nervous
02:09By the way
02:11Google it Justin Moore
02:14It was good
02:16All the conversations we've had
02:18In this in this business where we're all y'all see you later and until you have a song that doesn't go anywhere
02:23No, we'll never talk to you again
02:30That's
02:34That's what this business is
02:35Yeah to us to be able to call you after all these years our good friend means so much a lot for us and the
02:41fact that you're here full circle
02:43We've been in San Diego for 15 years now, man
02:45And the fact that you're headlining our show tonight and there are eight thousand people out there a to scream every lyric to every song
02:52That you sing we're so happy to be a part of this with you. Well, thank you
02:56well same goes to you guys and I was thinking about it earlier because we were talking about
03:03Our relationship
03:05My record label gal who we got we got really good that the time you're talking about still here
03:13And she still likes us and brought that up to her as unprofessional as she is. I'm surprised. She still has a job
03:20So are we all so who swears more you or her?
03:26But I was thinking
03:28We met no seven
03:30All right. Okay, so we're talking about let me do the math what 18 years 18, okay
03:36Okay, good. Okay, you're on the road, which is crazy Wow and doing this and and we don't have that opportunity without
03:43Great relationships and friends like you guys at radio
03:47Doing what you have for us over the years. So it's always good to see you guys
03:51I would never ever ask a request during a set that you probably have a lot of time
03:55But I was such a huge fan of your cover of home sweet home on the Motley Crue country. Thanks, man
04:01You that's not an easy song to sing your range was killer
04:05Any chant? No, we're not gonna hear that tonight, are we? Um, we play it quite often
04:10Really it's on the set list tonight, but because we kind of change it up
04:15My band leader
04:27You know, we play it quite a bit and man it's you know, it didn't chart as high as we had hoped but
04:33Not
04:35Due to us no, no Motley Crue. I mean, it's a big hit when we do play it
04:40Well, you killed it and that's not an easy song to say you sing it better than Vince Neil does
04:48Anyway, I want to tell you that last night
04:50I was at a local country bar and they had a great band playing and he was actually promoting this without excuse my help
04:56He just brought it up because he was such a huge fan of yours
05:00And he was like you got to go if anything to see Justin Moore
05:03He's like, I wish I could sing like Justin Moore because then I'd be like Justin Moore
05:08But I just thought that was very sweet and that was without prompting. He had no idea
05:13I was there and so I thought that was great. Also, you have a an unusual birthmark that I just noticed you
05:20Know you have a heart on your neck, dude. Yeah, it kind of looks like a heart or Africa
05:31How you turn your neck, but it's well when you turn it that way it's kind of Africa
05:36But when you kind of turn this way, it's a heart
05:41Depending on whatever situation I'm in like if you're in Africa
05:49You go like that if I'm like, hey, I'm in Africa look do I have time for one more quick story before
05:55Explain your heart. I'm sorry
05:57What's weird is my daughter has the same one?
06:00oldest daughter and
06:02throughout my life
06:04And she'll get this
06:06Everybody's always going
06:10I'm skanky, but I ain't that's
06:13And you burned your neck on a curling iron. Well, yeah, but it's brown. So it's clearly a birthmark. Yeah
