Hey, it's Mike Waters from the Waters Wake Up call this morning, Tunes Day.
It seemed like a good day to talk storm tunes.
You can't have a good thunderstorm without the god of thunder, right?
God of thunder and rock and roll.
That's what we're trying to do, get rock and roll for the thunder.
Play it loud and proud, man.
Loud, proud, and shout it out loud.
Yeah.
Thanks for calling, man.
Yeah, you bet.
You better have a great
day.
Yeah, you too.
Stay safe.
Yeah, you too, man.
How about Hurricane by
Bob Dylan?
Oh, yeah.
About the fighter.
Yeah.
That's a good one.
Rock you like a hurricane.
There's also Hurricane by Neil Young.
Replace them by Hurricane Katrina and the Waves.
Sure could.
Yeah.
Yeah, we could.
Hi, Mr. Ladder.
Well, hello.
How are you?
Good, how are you?
I'm good.
Thanks.
I was just going to say my, like, rainy day phone is definitely linger by the cranberries.
Oh, yeah.
I know the song.
So what is it about linger?
It's like moody.
And so
like when you look outside and you just hear it like the rain falling and whatnot, I just feel like it kind of that song that I just go to.
I'm like, I kind of like this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Even if the song has nothing to do with storms, it still maybe has the atmosphere or just gives a really good soundtrack to it.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Good one.
Thanks for that.
Yeah, no problem.
All right.
Have a great
day.
Can I suggest some storm songs?
Well, that's what I'm asking for, although.
I like to call them toons on toons day, but hey you do what you're gonna do you do whatever you want
Okay.
Yeah.
Um, how about Thunder Island?
Thunder?
Oh, that's a great one.
Thank you for that.
Yes.
Followed.
Followed when it's over.
Sounds of silence.
Sounds of silence.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or maybe it's not over.
Maybe it's a hurricane and maybe sounds of silence is the eye of the hurricane.
So we can go from say Thunder Island into sounds of silence and back into Thunder Island.
That would be a true hurricane because you're on an island.
So the thunderstorm may very well be a hurricane.
I'm just thinking out loud here.
It may not make sense, but it does to me.
Thank
you for saying the doors.
Yes.
Yes.
Such a good song.
Even if it didn't say anything about a storm, it would still be a great storm
tune.
Yeah,
you hear the rain first and you hear some thunder and then Jim Morrison coming in sounding cool
and have a couple cool ones with it.
Yes.
You're the man.
All right.
You're the man.
Thanks for calling with that.
Yep.
Have a great day.
Hey, good morning.
Good morning to you.
How are you today?
I am just peachy.
Peachy Keen.
So you got a good storm tune riding.
Storm out writing the storm out.
That was the other one I was getting a lot of texts for as riders on the storm and riding the storm out
The
live version is great with that synthesizer sound coming up like it's a storm warning It's a great song
or you can always close out with understruck.
I could good night.
Hey, you're you're kind of smart
I'm looking forward to hearing the stormy to today
That would certainly go along with a good storm.
Well put,
well put.
And with all these storm tunes, I really wanted to call Mrs. Waters and see if we were all ready for the storm at home.
Helmets
are good.
Yep.
How about the hatches?
Are they battened?
Yes, they are battened.
So what are the hatches and what do you need to do to batten them?
already done it.
You should probably have the exact way on how to do it.
It means that I have the helmet.
I have the flashlight.
I have some snack.
I have the radio with the batteries.
I have a little place set up for us in the basement.
It sounds like we're batting down, but what about the hatches?
We're not the hatches, are
we?
When there's a storm, we become the hatches.
So it has nothing to do with eggs.
No.
Okay,
because I thought it was an Easter thing.
No, we can't eat eggs in the basement.
I guess, since that's where the litter boxes are.
Right.
Because if we're eating eggs, we might mistake something that's not sausages as sausages.
Right, and that may be a little icky.
I think a little icky is an understatement.
A lot icky would be more like it.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Weekday mornings, 5.30 to
10.
