All right, talking about Death Leopard Rock of Ages. Deaf Leopard is one of my favorite bands. Again, I wasn't the first one to have this, but friend Tim bought it. Right. And of course we I knew the songs. That chirping you heard was the YouTube channel with the Eagles. I'm sorry, it just fine. That's fine. I heard it too enough to find it. I know it's fine. I didn't realize it was so loud. That's where it was coming from. Like, holy crap, what am I doing? That's from 1983. That's when that came out. A lot of memories on that one too. I mean, at that time, I was just basically turning twenty.

SPEAKER_06 11:56

Right.

SPEAKER_05 11:56

So, you know. I remember at one time when it came out, people were comparing him for Led Leopard. But I guess at that stage it was a new band.
