00:00Billy, do a lot of people DM you on Facebook and ask you to plan stuff?

00:08Yeah.

00:09Well, during the pandemic, it worked out well because people just from all over the world

00:12were writing to me to play bass.

00:14We ended up doing about 600 tracks.

00:17Wow.

00:18Based on 600.

00:19And the entire map of genre and style from absolute beginners with a little drum machine

00:26to pro major guys and stuff like that.

00:30So Facebook has brought this band about, so it's been a blessing in many ways.

00:39Very cool.

00:41Yeah.

00:41Now, I was thinking about this on the way into work today, growing up in Buffalo myself.

00:44What would the young kid that was playing in Talos think of the career that you've had?

00:49Well, I never really thought about, you know, some kind of a mess, huge.

00:58I mean, I wanted to be successful in some capacity, but I almost more wanted to be a player.

01:04I wanted to, you know, satisfy myself and say, you know, do things that I set out to accomplish

01:11as a player.

01:12And then the rest kind of came along, dragging along behind it as far as success goes.

01:18And I think that's a good thing to do because I really wasn't looking for money or fame at

01:25all, but I just wanted to be a, you know, be the best player I could be.

01:30And I think that's why eventually there was some success.

01:33Because I think if you concentrate just on success and money and fame, I don't think you

01:38go anywhere.

01:38You know, you really got to concentrate on the product you're doing, on the thing you're

01:42doing, and be the best you can be at it.

01:48You know, I think that's fantastic.
