Episode 2: Acappella Gold OR Isolation Drills

Housekeeping/Grammys/Santana.

Paul mentions black metal/ electronic act and Goblin enthusiast Mortiis as an example of echo-y production. (I think that this is more about comedy/a call back to an episode you haven’t heard yet then than actual production sounds) Here’s a video in case you want to see a man dressed like a goblin walking around looking “creepy” : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM-VTCesxHg

We didn’t mention it, but we do have an email address:

The real news IS depressing. If you want to really dive into it, here’s a blog that runs down the political misfortunes of the day. https://whatthefuckjusthappenedtoday.com/


Paul tries to sing like James Hetfield, but just sounds like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHBtpqbOKXk

Just a Side note…that song was Nominated for a Grammy. Full Circle!


Rob Zombie’s 2016 album has a long ass name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Electric_Warlock_Acid_Witch_Satanic_Orgy_Celebration_Dispenser


Here’s an article about James Hetfield's mic malfunction: http://time.com/4668510/grammys-2017-lady-gaga-metallica/


Here’s a review of the new Megadeth album: http://www.blabbermouth.net/cdreviews/dystopia/


Apparently, the Grammys were both predictable and bizarre. https://theringer.com/bizarre-2017-grammys-adele-beyonce-chance-the-rapper-5226a0316447#.cyrkrq3jm


Also…I cut the bit when I talked about this, but I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the Geto Boys song about how Willie D, the gangster of love, really wanted a Grammy, so here it is. Enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-58--SUONK0

Load is the longest Metallica album (78:59)…Holy shit.


Here’s an article on Jethro Tull beating Metallica for a Grammy: http://teamrock.com/feature/2016-11-28/what-happened-the-night-jethro-tull-beat-metallica-to-a-grammy-award

Here’s Santana saying some nonsense: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=11800608

An angel named Metatron speaks to Santana. So that’s a thing.

Santana does have a twitter account. It’s not the @theotherrealSantana. He has 137K followers, which is a fuck ton more than we have…and no, we’re not going to actually post the name of the real account. If you wanted to follow Santana, that is not going to be on us.

Ad Read : Cherries' Berries

Now we’ve all been there, you’ve been at work all day you’ve commuted home through the horrible rain, you get in and you’re starving. There’s no food in your house, obviously – like us you’re a childless freak who listens to podcasts  - you’re sick of that one Thai place you go to all the time – you don’t want to have yet another pizza delivered. What do you do?

That’s where Cherries Berries comes in – for just $60 they’ll send you refrigerator cold, fist sized strawberries dipped in white chocolate. Don’t like white chocolate? Think that chocolate should choose a fucking lane? That’s no problem, you can just pick it off. And these berries are guaranteed to arrive in 2 to 4 weeks.

My wife and I tried this last month and apart from the sugar crashes and all-day headaches we could not be happier.

Go to http cherries berries dot com and use the promo code Keepin It 5150 with Stephen and Paul to get 30% more strawberries in your first order.

Cherries Berries - food at the speed of fruit.

Featured Segment – “Acappella Gold”

Stephen has used the internet. That was a proven falsehood.

Here is an article on how to isolate and save vocals from music tracks. I don’t know why we didn’t google that before we started to record. It took me, like, three seconds to find it.

Under pressure  - Vocals only -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMQb9LCNGxs


Here’s thing about the making of Under pressure - http://www.openculture.com/2013/06/listen_to_freddie_mercury_and_david_bowie_on_the_isolated_vocal_track_for_the_queen_hit_under_pressure_1981.html


Running with the devil – Vocals only -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IArxakPsPE0


Paul was wrong about the set being 70% new material, but there is a lot of new songs on here: http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/van-halen/2012/tacoma-dome-tacoma-wa-3dfb913.html


Also…2012 van Halen was not good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WfQ-hV3WtA


But Gary Chareone Van Halen was better  than you think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lT8RdKN8u9w

Nope: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dakg3h1qoUY


Pantera sure did cover Planet Caravan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWChhdIgT6Q

Paul: “Kool and the Gang were good. They just were.”


Presented without commit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cY3oGfiJTpI

Paul is serious, there will be a hatchet piece on Led Zeppelin coming soon to a keepin’ it 5150 podcast near you.


Black in Black – vocals only - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHIxFr7hy9g

The debate ranges on. http://ultimateclassicrock.com/bon-scott-brian-johnson-debate/


Stephen makes a great point with Money Talks… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lqdErI9uss


Then ruins his own point by bringing up Fire Your Guns… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8IRvD04QHw


Here’s the set list from AC DC show Paul saw in 2001. It still holds up (except the really long version of Bad Boy Boogie. That did not hold up then, and doesn’t now.) http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/acdc/2001/tacoma-dome-tacoma-wa-43d7db2f.html


We can’t list all of the two good songs that are on every late period Ramones and AC/DC album. We don’t have the room. You guys are going to have to do some of the heavy lifting.


Classic Straw Man argument: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_IWlPHMziU

Here’s Kiss’s mission statement and national anthem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcj34XixuYg

Or our other national anthem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQRYVsqVT3M

Or yet our other possible national anthem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hyjJizFBpo

Our State Anthem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydl1IIYCLRc

Side note…We talk about Kiss for a really, really  long time.


Skip to 3.20 for that Beatles song Paul was referring to when he said that the Beatles kinda invented Kiss: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qrDlRsARwk

Enter sandman - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S_YM1rP0uI

Ad Read : Matroxi Hypersleep

You're listening to a podcast and our research indicates that means you care about two things: the enormous amount of time you spend at the post office, brought about by the pressures of running your own business, and sleeping on an internet mattress.


At Matroxi-Hypersleep we've perfected the right combination of springs, foam, sleeping pills and straw to make a mattress that the state of Arizona describes as "meeting many of the standards required for sale to prisons and livestock hospitals". We don't just guarantee that this is the best night's sleep you'll ever have, the chemicals in our mattress make us go further :

•  Waking up suddenly, frighteningly, sober at 3am - gone
• Those anxiety dreams that you think are about work but are really about your dad - gone
• Sleeplessness caused by constantly dwelling on the fact that stump-fucking rednecks put a fascist in charge of your country and no matter how smart you are you will never be safe again  - gone

You'll literally sleep for days at a time on a Matroxi-hypersleep mattress.

Recomendations 

Paul – combatwoundedveteran/orchid - split 6" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkMLNjfCK04

Twinz (deep cover ’98) which came out in 98 instead of 96. Paul has approximate knowledge of many things.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7fBmlX80fA


Stephen – recommends the Santa Clarita Diet. Here’s a trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjRnbOgoAUQ
Paul does not disguise his disgust.
