want to take me early I'm like okay let's do it yes so talk about some of the things that you've been working on because I know I feel like you're uh constantly in promotion but for other people so that's pretty cool yeah um well last week last week I realized that I haven't been promoting that much but I have been promoting all the time but if you've seen me on Facebook I usually have like little quick little things that might be funny like um someone posts about a tree I'm like yeah I'm already on the next tree let's go let's go come on I'm like you got to Branch out a little bit like I'm already at the next tree you're at this tree I'm like it's just a one of the memes I saw I'm like it's so funny so you got start maybe at the beginning beginning um former KKL student yes exactly I love KKL Lisa Z wherever you are I know you're watching somewhere I know we got a radio conference coming up and feel like that's where we first met right many um more than what 10 years ago but yeah so 20 long we say a long time Troy long time no maybe a little bit short later I don't know but um I have a couple Pages they started back in 2019 it was just a page and then I created a couple groups may have seen me out there but um some of them they're all they're all promotions but they all have different aspects of uh promotions as I just said bands live music he's a mixed media file yeah you come to me you promote me and uh I'll promote you um well you love great music great music always I'll listen to something but um I have to be honest if it's three country mov three country songs in a row I'm like can you change the station please that's what it does for you three in a row three in a row is for someone it doesn't have to be blue grass or I'm like I'll listen to something but instrumental even I'm like go got a go beat you know yeah yeah I like all kinds of genres but yeah country is my least known I guess I will hang out depending if it's catchy or not and I do like Bluegrass I think it's really good my parents used to take us to the cinjun Bluegrass Festival in Esco Gro Island every single year it was our um September trip I only went for the food okay let's be honest but I really did enjoy me a good fiddle yeah everyone needs to eat something yeah right hey John what's up thanks for joining us on the show this morning we've got Troy in and you've got upper Cape live which is um one of your newer Pages where you're promoting stuff yep upper Cape live so I had it originally found with mash B born and sandwich not that order no relation to anything else but um um now I'm switching the Plymouth and barn West Barn area yeah because I there's many of my friends that play in those areas so why not stretch it I'm like but it's based in those four towns just right over the bridge yeah so I created that one before that the one in 20 19 was live at fouth 18 not in fouth which is another one I can't speak on that one but um just promotions if you're a band if you're soloist guitarist whatever have you if you're a host of uh trivia or like uh music Bingo kind of I know that's out there now that's that's really come on and you like take a card and you have to yes cage and Bluegrass John don't tease me what's up Edy that was the name of it it's still actually a festival it's so goes on every single year and I've always wanted to go back and I've never been able to get back there because when you live on Cape Cod uh we are busy all summer long and Labor Day weekend is a very busy weekend for us it marks like the I don't know meteorological end to our Cape Cod summer you're upper Cape guy but really you're weam weham yeah I was born weam the age old debate yeah is weham Cap Cod you know is that your question because I can I can feel like that's your question like I can I can sense some questions sometimes but not always is Squam Cape Cod I know it's a gateway to Cape Cod but is it Cape Cod I think if you're on the highway once you hit that 2024 sign I'm like that's where you decideed that's where I decide I'm like Massachusetts yet or is it still we him because that's a long stretch between exit three and no the now exit three because they what 10 is it yeah change they changed they changed the um this this the numbering system yeah yeah yeah exactly um even when you're on rout six I mean it does make sense when you're mile marking however it really threw everybody for a loop and we just don't like change we're people I mean now you're now you're in the 60s I'm like no it used to be three four five is easy but now like 67 is like high is like why is it so high oh because the mileage like it's easier for the for the your average person counting miles right sure I guess but yeah wear him guess that's where we're we're marking it as soon as Massachusetts put the big sign on the side of the highway we've decided from there on is Cape cot John it is not on Cape no no no no no I mean I my mile marker is the bridge did you hit the bridge call me when you get to the bridge that is a cape Cotter thing y yeah I know exactly if my guests on a regular day are hitting the bridge I've got 15 minutes before they're going to be here maybe 10 for me yeah yeah yeah for you no that's it yeah but but I'm already on this side so we're good exactly if you're on this side of the bridge you're at Cape Conor welcome welcome you spent a little time away but you you've been a weham guy from uh from the beginning from the beginning yeah there's many people out there that I've talked to they know my page they know my um basically it's new me right now because this is where I wanted to begin with you or someone on the radio and or getting a newspaper but I'm like that's kind of hard I just want to speak my people need

Tik Tok I will tell you that I clean my pans now from a little video that I watched on Tik Tok my daughter has like alerted me to all kinds of fun little nuggets that I learn from my Tik Tok learning yeah I don't I there is a lot of Cesspool out there believe me and when you lose a full hour or a half of a day to scrolling because yeah you're in it it is addictive it is 100% addictive it is made

food Rebecca I'm not even worried about the eating portion I'm just worried about the going under portion and then then how is it going to affect me speaking you should be fine that's all think you'll be fine I know but it's one of those things where you get a little bit nervous and like there is a possibility of not feeling your face there is a possibility of losing movement in your face uh because one of mine is wrapped around a nerve ending like that's very scary to me scary like all of a sudden now I look like I have Belle's py for life like paralysis is a very real thing so yeah that's it's a little bit scary for me other than that I'm tough I can take it's just teeth right we're all right um I saw that the average tax refund this year is a little bit smaller like a good thing or a bad thing I don't know if what it affects anybody I always pay so I'm not the recipient of that but I did see people saying one of the funniest memes I saw yesterday was someone who put out

and outs of some of the places that people visit for maybe a drink but I don't drink of course that's one way to do but I'm around people that do so well that that you bring up a really good point about when we have places that have entertainment it's always in a drinking establishment yeah so it is nice to be able to to go where there's no boots um we did a speed dating event and a couple of our guys were really really quite kind but they were like no I'm not Drinkers and that's why it's really hard for me to meet people we had 50 people attend we're going to be doing another singles Meetup and one of the ones that we're going to be doing is for older folk uh 55 plus is going to be our our next event that we do but we're always going to be mixing it up from the 20s to the 40s as well so definitely um we're getting a newsletter together if you're interested in any of our singles meetups I'm going to throw a Google form up for you to get signed up to um just mix because we desperately need to get together with people and just fellowship and being around other singles and it doesn't have to be in a drinking establishment no right no it does not but um but I mean
