The List for Monday, June 20th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Thinking about starting a band?  Sometimes the hardest part is the promotions….Just ask Parmalee Star Matt Thomas On The Funny Ways The Band Promoted Themselves When They Were Starting Out … “We were relentless about promotions.  We’d ride around with stickers on our cars, we even rented one of those signs in our front yard with the big flashing arrow that said Parmalee Friday night at the club.  My dad would pull it around in his blue Ford pickup truck.”

First jobs are..well let’s face it FIRST JOBS…and, their not always the most fun…Jon Pardi tells CMT that he hated working at a grocery store. Saying “The worst job he ever had was at the hometown grocery store. He didn’t want to work. He was 15 and didn’t want to work at the grocery store. bagging was fun.  But going down the aisles and pulling up cans and turn them around and face them. Was the worst he would just get so bored…

In a surprise twist, Pixar and Disney’s new movie Lightyear lost Father’s Day weekend and failed to holdover Jurassic World Dominion at the domestic box office.  Lightyear was expected to top the chart with a $70 million to $85 million opening. Instead, the Toy Story spinoff buzzed to a disappointing $51 million.  That’s to bad, it looked like a fun movie…

The things that we do for art….and authenticity…In a new interview, Faith Hill said she was forced to let her armpit hair grow out before filming “1883”.  “Taylor called my husband.  We were at our nephew’s wedding, and he said, ‘Who’s gonna be the one to tell your wife that she has to stop shaving under her arms?’ “And I’m thinking, ‘What?  We’re at a wedding.  Can this wait?’  He goes, ‘No, stop tonight.’  That was three months  before filming. She thought maybe they could just tape something on…but no…it really grossed her out.
