Cody: So hear me out. We sleep in the van on the beach, then we take the ferry across to New Jersey and just get to Philly that way! Dale: …. Don’t I ridicule you enough? Cody: You’d get bored if I didn’t throw out dumb ideas at you. Dale: Unfortunately you’re probably right.

Cody, after an hour of silence in the hotel room: You know. There’s a giant bell on Facebook marketplace. We could get it and then roll up to Philly like “What up, bitches, ours is intact.”

Cody, riffing over the course of a few minutes: “I’m good at anything that DOESN’T make money.” “I think it’s perhaps some sort of family curse.” “Yes, any task that doesn’t lead to monetary gain is where I thrive.”

Dale, tapping out tempos because we lost the studio notes with exact tempos for songs: God, we’re such cowards, this is 118, it’s not even 120BPM. Cody: It’s just a slow 120. We were just dragging it. Dale: …. It’s not like you can tune a tempo to 432hz for fun my guy.
