And so it was kind of nerve-wracking, and I was like, "Oh, okay." And, uh, but it was cool.

I got the call back, and then there was another call back, and another call back.

And I made it to the final round.

It, it was quite a few days and the last, like, two or three days she came, and we went to this undisclosed location, um, uh, where, where she was.

And, and, um, and so we auditioned for her there.

And, uh, a- at the end, it was between me and this one other guy and, and she went with the other guy.

Wow

... went up one at a time, and we all watched each other, all the drummers.

So how did you get involved in this with I mean, and who are the other members of the band? And did you guys have conversations with them? Like, how long has this been on the drawing board?

You know, we just started rehearsing a couple of days before the two shows that we played.

So we just got together, all of us.

Yeah, last week, last week.

But I had met him a couple a week or two prior.

I had met William Shatner a week or two prior just because we got our we got some in-ear monitors molded together.

So I did get to speak to him prior to the rehearsals and he was so cool.

Like as well as we've all heard them a million times.

Tone because I interviewed Mark Slaughter years ago and him and I got in a discussion and he was telling me about the, they have like these wicked blocks and resonate a lot better, right? I've never tried it as a guitar player myself, but how did you get involved with them?

So I've known Adam of FUTone for quite a few years and I don't know.

I see him on the road here and there, and he's always a great guy.

I always see him at the NAMM shows.

And one of the last shows I think we were playing, he grabbed my guitar on the side.

I was messing with pedals, and then he picked it up.

Then he was going to go bring it over and hand it to me to play.

Paul Newman to

And, um, things like that.

But when we first started dating, uh, we were going back and forth a lot and then, uh, and we all had things going on, busy summer.

And so Tommy was like, "We need to have a two-week rule." So we had a two-week rule.

Either, you know, we couldn't go over that without seeing each other 'cause then, you know- If you look at life, it can get crazy.

It's easy to, to just go apart if you're not seeing each other and keeping in touch, and we're both so busy.

So, um, we d- we started doing that, and that has worked out great.

What's the most influential city you've been to, or place?

Hmm.

what I figured.

I feel like out of everybody I know, I don't know anybody like I'm busy until I go to bed and I wake up early and I still don't have enough hours in the day.

Any day.

It's crazy.

Like I'm, I always ask Tommy, I'm like, where did the day go? Why don't we have enough time? Like, and then I see friends like, Oh yeah, I just, I just hung out today.

I'm like hung out.

Like I can't remember the last time I just hung out.

is on theirs too oh

That's what I figured.

That sounds amazing.

Oh,
