Shaun Squad Society
The Shaun Squad Society Podcast is a podcast written, produced and hosted by three women who want to keep the Magic of a Midnight Sky alive!
Cindy, Dorese and Dame became friends at a Shaun Cassidy concert and immediately decided to form "The Shaun Squad." Soon after, the Shaun Squad Society Podcast was conceived to discuss and reminisce about all-things Shaun Cassidy, from his first years as a teen idol to his current career as a writer and producer.
This podcast brings together a community of Shaun's devoted fans, the ones who played his albums non-stop, and who tuned into The Hardy Boys Mysteries every Sunday evening. And now, 46 years later, Shaun's story-telling tour has delighted fans again. So, join us for the stories, fun-facts, and fascinating interviews as we take you down memory lane with our Teen Dream, Shaun Cassidy.

Shaun Cassidy’s Unwrapped Holiday Tour sparked instant fan buzz, and we’re here for every detail, from the first surprise drop to the rumors that leaked early (yes, we’re looking at you, Key West). We talk through why a holiday concert tour makes perfect sense after his intense 57-city run, and how Shaun seems to be having more fun than ever balancing music with the stories that make each night feel intimate.
We also dig into what fans actually want from a holiday show: familiar favorites, new songs, and the warm, unscripted moments that turn a theater into a living room. Shaun is also asking fans for some song suggestions, so we pitch some ideas. We break down the VIP meet and greet appeal and why a Q&A can feel like an extra show.
Plus, we share and upcoming event with My First Crush Wine at Vega Vineyard!

Intro
SPEAKER_03And we're fine with it. We're like, okay, if you got the energy, we don't have the energy to do that. What did he do? Like eat and then take a little break? He did like two weeks of shows and then took what a two-week break? Something like that. Yeah, it was kind of cool.
SPEAKER_04It's a workout.
SPEAKER_02He's got a workout going on. We know how hard it is because all we tried to do was go to three shows in a row, and I thought I needed resuscitation.
SPEAKER_03We were exhausted. It was a lot to do. We can't imagine what he goes through.
Welcome Back To Shaun Squad
SPEAKER_03Welcome to the Sean Squad Society Podcast with your hosts, myself, Cindy, Doris, and Madonna, where we invite you to share in our enthusiasm and reminisce about all things Sean Cassidy.
SPEAKER_02From his teen idle days to his recent adventures back on the road again.
SPEAKER_04Please join us for the stories and memories that connected us to those happy days that helped create the Sean Squad Society Podcast.
SPEAKER_02Hey, we're all together. Look at this. Yeah, we are. It's Cindy, Doris, and Dane. Yay! Nice to be here. Good having you, Dame. I hope everything's good and everything is um all okay and glad you're back.
SPEAKER_04It's all good. I'm I'm happy to be back and I'm happy to be with you girls. It's fun to join you.
SPEAKER_02We have a really fun episode to talk about today because there's some cool stuff happening. We're gonna unexpected. And that's what brought us back together this month. Yep. We're gonna talk about the upcoming holiday unwrapped tour and some of the past stuff and just fun, exciting events on the horizon. So we got a lot of good stuff we're gonna be sharing today.
The Unwrapped Holiday Tour Reveal
SPEAKER_04We do. Well, on July 21, Sean came by and he surprised us. He sure did. He had exciting news, and we're like, we always get excited about this. He said he would be doing a holiday tour called the Unwrapped Holiday Tour.
SPEAKER_03And isn't that funny? That sounds interesting. What does it sound like? What does that title remind you of?
SPEAKER_04Underwrap. Like his other, yeah, his other um record, the underwrap. Yeah, you said something funny to him online about let's not make a mistake and put un and then wrapped or something. Go in and try to get our tickets. Oh, yes, for the pre-sale code.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, what did you say about that? Don't put the wrong name in. Don't put underwraps instead of unwrapped. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Well, he said he'd be sharing holiday favorites, old new songs, and of course, more stories, more family stories that we love to listen to.
SPEAKER_03That's how he gets wrangled in, right? Because he knows he's a storyteller. So for us to see him, in his mind, he's got to say, Well, I'm gonna go out and tell stories. Well, great, because we can listen to the music and hear a story. So we both get the better end of the deal. Yes. And he's having fun doing it too. You can tell. He is starting wearing him out. He's loving it. No, it's been a lot of fun. And he's covered a lot of cities lately, too.
SPEAKER_02For this tour, he decided to get in some places he'd never gone. Right. Yeah, like Denver. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Michigan. He put Michigan.
SPEAKER_04New York City. Near him, Los Angeles. Hey, hey, but what about that story about Key West? Like a couple days before he announced this, the rumor started. And there was a copy of his cover that said that he'd be going to Key West. And we were wondering if this could be true. And then he's he announced it like a day or two after we saw that. Yeah. Going around online.
SPEAKER_03So I'd love to go to Key West.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. I mean, it's a great little island, I'm telling you. Um to see Sean now.
SPEAKER_03I'd love to go. Yes. Let's all go. But this news started leaking out, guys. Well, he said he had surprises, and we were trying to figure it out. What was the surprise? And I know before he said he wanted to record a Christmas album. Yes. So I thought it was a Christmas album.
SPEAKER_02And he just came right in and said, Well, he will put a couple of new songs in Spotify. He'll have Yeah, he's working on it. So maybe one might be a new original Christmas song.
SPEAKER_03Right. And we did not expect a tour because he just got done with the 57 City tour. Right. For six months.
SPEAKER_04His agent, though, said, Okay, we may be finished with 57. Let's do more. And Sean's like, no, no, no, no, no, no. I don't want to do more. But then he said, Well, what about if it's just like a holiday tour with just a couple months? So that was the agent trying to get him to do more, you know, knowing that we wanted him to do more.
SPEAKER_03And apparently the response he got from this tour made him think about it again. And he thought, well, yeah, that would be fun to do a holiday.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_03And luckily he's coming to Illinois again.
SPEAKER_02When he was teasing it, I swear I never thought too. He was like, got something coming. And I thought a new TV show. That was well, I thought a new Broadway. I thought he said he's working on a Broadway.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. He said he's working on a Broadway and that he actually had a deadline to work on one when the agent came to him. And Sean said, No, because I'm working on this and I'm trying to get it finished by this deadline. Yeah, that's when he said, Well, hey, let's just go out, have you go out and do some holiday type of show.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Just for a couple months, he said. And that's fine with us. And he always includes Illinois for some reason. Yes. And I'm excited about it. And we're happy about that. Well, Dame, you live in Oklahoma and Doris and I live in Illinois, but Illinois Central. So I guess maybe that's why he does that.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Yes. I love getting together with you girls, though. It's it's a
VIP Meet And Greets
SPEAKER_03lot of fun. We had fun with the last tour.
SPEAKER_02We had a great time with it. It was more than fun. It was exhausting. It was a job. Yeah. But this new tour, I'm really excited about it because, well, for personally, for me, I'm kind of excited because we're going to only one, but it's gonna be also meet and greets. He's gonna include his uh VIP, is what I'm trying to say.
SPEAKER_04I know, and I'm excited about the VIP part because he doesn't tell us what all is really included. And I heard Tracy say something about looking into maybe putting candles in there for us. Oh, that would be nice.
SPEAKER_02A holiday candle. I remember that. Oh, yeah. When you sit in, he answers your questions. Yeah. Cause we're excited. It's there.
SPEAKER_04That's true. More stories, lots of stories, all in between. Go to the VIP and it's like an extra show.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, it is. But I forgot about the swag bag. Yeah, see what kind of goodies. Didn't someone give them the idea to make the wine bottles, the my first crush wine bottles into candles.
SPEAKER_03Yep. Some of the fans made a candle out of it and they thought that was a great idea.
SPEAKER_02So that would be kind of cool. Yes.
SPEAKER_03But some people complain that when uh they were shipped the candle, it broke. It broke. Yeah. So they have to be careful with that. So with if they put in a swag bag, hopefully these won't break. Yeah. That's why. Yeah, they would rather do it this way. Maybe in person, yeah, than through the mail.
SPEAKER_02Yes.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. This year they're not doing the holiday party, so it's nice that we're doing the shows with him. Oh, well, yeah, I would take that in a minute. Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And by so that people know what Dame's talking about, Sean's My First Crush Wine at Vega Vineyard every year. If you were a wine club member, he would host a little holiday party for wine club members. And it was kind of really up close and personal. Yeah, you and Dame got to go to that before. We went to the first one.
SPEAKER_04I really, yeah. And I remember sitting outside of where he was inside singing, and I could hear him singing in there. I heard people singing jingles. So I walked in there and I saw that Kathleen was singing with him, and they were having so much fun. So it felt like we were family, where you know, he gets his family around the piano and they sing holiday tunes. Yes. And it felt like we were actually there doing that with Sean. But what was hilarious is that he was just singing away and getting into it. And then he stopped and he said, Okay, you guys, I want to say this. This is funny. I know Sean likes to say, Okay, don't record this because I better not find this on the internet. But something that really sticks out to me is it's so funny and so cool and so much fun. Where he would not do this, probably where that would be on video or something, and except us putting it out there. And it's when they were singing jingle bells and he was ringing the jingle bells, and that just cracks me up so much. And it's so personal, and it's so much fun, and it and it's cute.
SPEAKER_02So he did a couple of holiday songs in New York for the Magic Tour. I thought he had his bells when he remember the Magical Midnight Sky Tour, and he did a couple of new Christmas songs.
SPEAKER_04Okay, did he get those bells at that time too?
SPEAKER_03He saw it on YouTube. I think he was just inserting a few. Okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Well, he was having fun with those, and it it cracked me up in a fun way. Don't you dare put any of this on YouTube or I will hunt you down.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, he he did.
SPEAKER_03I'd like to see that. Come and hunt me down, Sean. Come and come to Chicago, please find us. Hunt me down. I will invite you in.
SPEAKER_02But yeah, it was uh we don't want to be in trouble. Oh, yeah, yeah, definitely not. That was a good time. And Dame, to your point, it is that's exactly the vibe he wants it to be. That he's inviting his friends to his house and having a holiday party. Right. That's but it won't be this year, unfortunately, because he will be on tour. And so he can't host the unless he does something on tour one night.
SPEAKER_03Well, they mentioned that, but I don't know if they could figure that out or not. Yeah. I think they mentioned it last year.
unknownYes.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, Sean said something about, well, we could just do it on the East Coast or something. And and I think Tracy said, uh, no, we we need to think about that. They're they're a funny pair.
SPEAKER_02They're cute together. Well, Sean comes up and he spews out this stuff, and Tracy being the brain's going, let's just pull this back a little bit and give us some real thought before we actually go into executing this plan.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, you know what I was just remembering the last time Sean did a QA and somebody I think asked him about the girls and everything, you know, with being this teen idol. And was she worried if he did another tour? And she said, no, go get him.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. Well, I mean, seriously, who's gonna worry that their 67-year-old husband is going out there with 60-something-year-old women.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, really? You know, Sean, Sean's really excited about all this, and I know in my past it was all about the poster and you know, that type of thing and his shows, and and we just saw Sean, you know, Sean this, Sean that. But now he feels like we're getting to know him so much more than even watching him in The Hardy Boys or looking at his poster because now he gets a chance to, you know, pretty much sit down with us and tell us stories behind his life with his family. And we're all interested in that.
SPEAKER_03So yeah, and he said himself it's better for him now in his 60s because now the audience is older and the connection feels more personal. So he's getting to know us on a different level now. And he likes that.
SPEAKER_02And we can't run as fast to chase him around. We can't leap. Nobody's gonna be pulling his hair out this time. We can't leap in a single bound up onto the space. Yeah, that's not happening.
SPEAKER_04We're not running after his hair out, yeah. We want him to save his hair this time.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, he still has nice hair. He still has hair.
Why Shows Feel More Personal Now
SPEAKER_03Yeah, he still has nice hair, yes. When he was on his last tour, it was a big tour. And did you notice these famous people coming out to his shows? Oh, like Valerie, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04She was at the Palm Springs one, right? Yeah, and then it was 50 years before they got to meet backstage.
SPEAKER_02Yes, and Gary Cole, his ex-um star of American Gothic, he came to the final one, the final road test tour for the wrapping up the tour. And who else? Um, Eric McCormick. Oh, yeah, Eric McCormack. He did. That was the most surprising one. Yeah. Because I didn't get a connection. I'm like, how is he even connected?
SPEAKER_03I forgot how he's connected, but what show was he on? Will and Grace. Will and Grace, that's right. Love that show. Which one did Ryan meet him at?
SPEAKER_02The one with when um, the one with Gary Cole, the last one. Okay. Okay, perfect. Yeah, I think that was neat. I was trying to figure out the Eric McCormack, because I would probably think Sean Hayes would have been there because he might have had a crush on him as a scene or something, but there is a connection.
SPEAKER_03I just don't remember what it was.
SPEAKER_02That's all right.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Because they mentioned that when he saw him. Yeah, that was so cool. Mm-hmm. Thanks for reminding me of that. Yeah, that was fun. But do you remember anybody else? Did um Bernie Toppin go to any shows? He's friends with Bernie Toppin?
SPEAKER_02Yeah, he's good friends with Bernie.
SPEAKER_03He may have gone to the Nashville. I think he went to the Nashville show. I don't remember. Do you mean the the Opri short? Yeah, the one in the beginning, the first show.
SPEAKER_02Yes.
SPEAKER_03He might have been at that one.
SPEAKER_02He might have. Yeah. But other than that, yeah, those were the ones that are stand out in my mind. That other the what else stands out big about that tour besides the fact that it was a big tour. Yeah. The holiday ones were really neat. Yeah, that is. But I'm trying to think of what big standout came from the uh Road Trust tour. Something that was like, wow, never expected that, but I can't think of anything besides the fact that he he lived through a 50-something city tour.
SPEAKER_03Well, like he said, he wasn't strong. When he toured before when he was younger, he was doing the Hardy Boys. So it was it was on off. Yeah, he was doing in between. This show is a consistent full tour. And he likes this.
SPEAKER_04He likes this so much more.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, he was pretty ambitious this time. And we're fine with it. We're like, okay, if you got the energy, we don't have the energy to do that. What did he do? Like eat and then take a little break. He did like two weeks of shows and then took what a two-week break? Something like that. Yeah, it was kind of cool.
SPEAKER_02That's a workout. He's got a workout going on. We know how hard it is because all we tried to do was go to three shows in a row, and I thought I needed resuscitation.
SPEAKER_03We were exhausted. It was a lot to do. We can't imagine what he goes through.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. I mean, but it's also worth it. I think I've been to like 20 total things, you know, and it's so worth it. You just want more. That's why you keep going.
SPEAKER_03And too,
Band Lineup And Setlist Wish List
SPEAKER_03his nephew is still in the show, Cole. Yes, Cole. He plays a mean guitar.
SPEAKER_02Now, yes, let's talk about that. And Kathleen will be with him this time. Hey, we love Kathleen. Yeah, Kathleen is coming back. And I'm excited about that. It's a full band. Full band. Full band. And Cole is really good on a guitar. And I think Cole wants to just break loose and get into some really hardcore rocking songs. And well, right now Sean's.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, Sean's out asking on his Facebook page for songs.
SPEAKER_02Today, as a matter of fact, he's asking for suggestions on what songs should he add to his playlist. Right.
SPEAKER_04And I and I didn't even think of this one. I said a different song, Mary Did You Know, which is beautiful. But I didn't think of the but I didn't think of the one that Doree mentioned. And I love this idea of him singing, what, Doreese?
SPEAKER_02Baby It's Cold Outside. It's from the show. That would be so cute. It's from us, actually. That I put it up as a group that we should have um Baby It's Cold Outside. That would be so adorable. And the one that I mentioned personally was Holiday from his first album.
SPEAKER_03I think the only one song he did on the first album was Be My Baby.
SPEAKER_02Yes, Be My Baby is on the first album. And of course, the do run run. And to do run run.
SPEAKER_04You know what's funny? That, like you said about that do, run, run. Well, he put that on there recently when he was talking about this holiday show. And he said that is a Christmas song, isn't it? So he had that in his background.
SPEAKER_02It was very funny. But I'm glad you brought up the do-run-run, Cindy, because I've been wanting to say this out loud. We have some people in the world, none of our followers, of course, but there are some people in the world that think it's the do run run. R-N, R-U-N. And it's run run. R-O-N. And just to clear it up so everyone knows, it means nothing.
SPEAKER_03Right. The writer even says that. The writer of the song said he just had to fill in some words.
SPEAKER_02When Bill Spector was at the piano working out the song, and you know, you get the lyrics and the medley and the beat and all that. And he had to play a little verse. He was like the do rhyme, rhyme, rhyme. And he just kept it in there. It was just empty words. And when people say, What is a da do rhyme rhyme? He said nothing. Nothing, we don't know. But of course, I see why it gets mistaken as to do run rhyme, but I've always wanted to say out loud that it's the do ron rhyme. And that's how it's always been. Sean is not changing the words here. 60 years later. It's always been to do run rhyme.
SPEAKER_03Right. So now, what are our requests now for the for some songs for his new set? What do you think? Give us a oh yours. I want. I like I want something from his live album. You lost that loving feeling. Yeah. That's cool. That would be neat too. Because he's saying that, and he said it before. He says he loved that song. And I love it too. And he's saying it good on the live album. That's the only time I ever heard of it.
SPEAKER_02When I heard him sing it, I thought it was the best redition since Elvis sang it in Vegas or his Vegas set. And of course, the Righteous Brothers are the original artists, but I think Sean is right there next to Elvis. I love it. You could go, it is the biggest covered song forever. Darrell Hall and John Notes did it. Yeah. Everybody under the sun has done.
SPEAKER_03Sean may even, he may even sang that at Navy Pier in Chicago back in 78. He did sing it. I think so. I lost all I lost my mind when he sang it. I was going nuts. Yeah, he had a great purple outfit on. Yeah, it was it was the coolest thing. But I think he sang it there. Yeah. No, it's not. I think he did. He did. He did.
SPEAKER_04But girls, he's saying that now his his voice is even stronger. So he really is enjoying this. Yes. Even stronger than when he was. So I think he can pull it off again.
SPEAKER_02And you know, it would be great. People would lose their mind, though.
Sing Alongs And Family Stories
SPEAKER_02I don't know if he could do it, but if he could have someone there, like from Top Gun, and they could be sitting there and he goes, I get down on my knees, and he gets down. But no, that would just go absolutely.
SPEAKER_04He did that in Dallas at one of the shows I went to recently. He actually was so happy about his son's teaming team winning like a game or something. So then right outside of where we were staying, he did that little recording and he got down and he sang that part.
SPEAKER_02But you're right, Dave. He did it. Who knew that Sean would be out doing karaoke with the piano player? Yeah, yeah. That was they went to a karaoke and they started singing New Lost Night. Loving loved it.
SPEAKER_04And that was right after the show I went to. So that was really neat. It was it was just a few minutes after I had just, you know. If only you knew where he was going, right? If only you knew. Yes, I know.
SPEAKER_02I should have been there. Should have been looking around. Yep. You know what else I think he should add? And I didn't put this on his Facebook. Maybe we should. You know how artists um when they lower the music a little bit. And then they put the mic out, they hold the mic out to the audience and they go sing. Yes. He should add a Christmas song that's a great sing along song. Oh, that's a good idea. Hold the mic out to the audience and say sing at the chorus and then everybody sing it. I'll go on stage with him and sing it. Other than jingle bells. Exactly. Other than jingle bells, what do you think is a great song for that? Where we can sing back to him. I want to put that on his Facebook. Yeah, why not? I don't know what's a good idea to say, though.
SPEAKER_04Well, maybe our listeners can give us some ideas.
SPEAKER_02That would be I I've always wanted Sean to include that part in his show. He doesn't do that. Even if it's not a Christmas song, in the I saw the magic show, which really it wouldn't fit. But this last road to us show, he doesn't stop Laura to like bring down the music song and let the audience carry the ver the chorus.
SPEAKER_03And I think that is the coolest thing. Yeah, more interaction with the audience. I know he likes to do a set, he's he's set in his mind with that, what he's doing, but a little bit more interaction with the audience would be fun. That would be fun. Yeah, that's a good idea. And I wonder who's gonna talk about. I'm I'm assuming he's gonna talk about Christmas with his family at these shows. Because one Tory talked about David, and then one Tory talked about his dad, then one Tory talk well about his mom. Like he's inserted these different family members. Well, yeah, she's older now. I don't know if she tours or not. Never mind. I don't know.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. I think Cheryl is right comfortable at home with her Martin's.
SPEAKER_03True.
SPEAKER_02Martinis, you mean? I call them Martin. Oh, you call them Martin? I think they're more Martin than Teeny. Oh.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_02God bless her though.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_02She's moving right along.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, she's so special.
SPEAKER_02Speaking of Shirley, I just saw online that in Pittsburgh coming up very shortly on one of the streets, they're gonna put a brick in the wall or something honoring Shirley for her contribution to Pittsburgh Theater. Theater. Yes. The one where Borshawn had her birthday celebration. Yeah. So I just saw that and I thought, how nice is that that they're gonna do that for her? That's awesome.
SPEAKER_04We want to hear his stories. I mean, yeah. If it includes any of his family members, you know, and and that's like you were saying, Doris, where we could sing part and interact with him. Maybe he's nervous because we're not going to sound like all the Cassidys.
SPEAKER_02No, that's the beauty of when when the when the performer allows the audience to sing. That's the beauty because it's just them, and it doesn't matter how they sound. It's the greatest gift for an uh audience to give back to the songwriter their song.
SPEAKER_03You sang it back to well, like he says, a song can live in your heart forever, and that's where his songs are. Yeah, they're in our heart, and we know them and we carry them with us.
SPEAKER_02Yes, yeah, yes.
SPEAKER_03So that's what counts.
SPEAKER_02I would love if he can include that. And I'm
Tour Dates Road Map And Highlights
SPEAKER_02gonna put that out on his Facebook question of the day. Okay.
SPEAKER_03So no, just so you know, the tour date starts on November 5th in Colorado, Grand Junction, Colorado, which he's never been to before. No, he hasn't. So that's a new one. Oh, and then Denver, Colorado, then another one in Denver, Colorado. He's covering Colorado pretty well. Wow, good for him. He's representing Sean Denver. Yes, and okay, John Denver fact. How is he connected with Sean? I don't know. Tell me. He introduced Sean at the Grammys when Sean was the opening act at the Grammys back. How did I forget that? Oh man. John Denver introduced Sean that he was going some he was going places. Yes. And he was right. He was up for the new artist of the year, and he's going places here. Sean Cassidy. Great Grammy upset. Yes, with Debbie Boone. I know. We already covered that. But John Denver introduced him. So that's a good memory there, Cindy. Sean's going back to pay homage to him.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_03I can still picture that. You got you put Sean Cassidy on YouTube, and that's one of the first videos. Oh, I love that video with the white outfit. Gorgeous. Yes.
SPEAKER_04And he does his little thing.
SPEAKER_03And I don't know if you guys notice this, but he, I don't know if this is a nervous thing, but he shakes his hair. Do you think he's nervous when he does that? I think he knows how beautiful it looks.
SPEAKER_04He just knew that was such beautiful hair. And oh, we love that problem.
SPEAKER_03I think his hair was hairsprayed then because it didn't move. Oh, okay. He was shaking it and it didn't go anywhere. And I'm like, okay, yeah, they hairsprayed that.
SPEAKER_04But well, that's because he's he's cool. He's always been cool. And that's if you're cool, that's what you do. You shake the head.
SPEAKER_03That's right. That's right. All right. I'm still looking at his calendar. So November, okay, after Colorado's Missouri, and then Iowa. And then November 13th, he does come to the Waukegan Genesee Theater in Illinois.

SPEAKER_04Except it's cold.
SPEAKER_02Except it's too cold. Well, hopefully not. Remember last November when we were at three shows? One show was cold. One show we were outside with no coat. Well, we were in Wisconsin the first show. That was cold. That was cold. Then the second show we were outside with no coat. It was beautiful. And then the third show it was pouring down rain inside.
SPEAKER_03Yes. Yes.
SPEAKER_02We had a bit of everything. We covered all three seasons.
SPEAKER_03So November?

SPEAKER_03So much fun. You'll have to meet us there too, so you can get in on the action.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. Just come on now and see what we might have fun to do.
SPEAKER_03Okay. And it will be fun. And it will be fun. If you read other shows you went to, then you have an idea. It's worth it. Work, work, work. Yes. So then after a while, Keegan is Nashville. He's going to Nashville later on this time in the tour. And I I wonder who might show up at that show. Yeah. I'm wondering. Patrick, maybe? I'm thinking Brad Paisley because Brad Paisley knows the Naked Lunch Guys. Yes. And Kimberly, Brad Paisley's wife, is a fan of Sean. Well, yeah, now that's putting some connections together. They may have already gone to one of the shows. I don't know, but I think they're going to go. I'm just going with Patrick, his brother, and you're putting all these connections together. Kimberly, his wife likes Sean. That's all I know.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. And David Wilde.
SPEAKER_03Well, it's a connection. Yeah, it's a connection. You never know. So then they're going to, yeah, after Nashville is St. Louis, Missouri, um, Indiana, he's going to hit, then a show in Michigan, Nebraska, Minnesota, Iowa, Indiana. I think.
SPEAKER_02He's going to Indiana again. Because you say Indiana, Michigan, Nebraska, so and then he's going back to Indiana.
SPEAKER_03Oh, yes. Okay. November 15th is St. Louis, Missouri. The 17th is Indianapolis, Indiana. Then he goes back to Indiana on the 24th. Okay. Yeah, you're right. He skipped back. Didn't realize that before. Okay. What a fun Christmas. Go to Indiana again and then Kent, Ohio, which we've been to that one before. Yes, we drove there.
SPEAKER_02Yep, we were there. How far apart are those shows? The Indiana show and the Kent, Ohio show.
SPEAKER_03The Indiana show is the 24th and the Ohio is the 25th.
SPEAKER_02Okay. I was gonna say, because you know geographically they're close. Yeah. So I can see them putting that show after Indiana.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, and then he goes to Rhode Island and then New York, Massachusetts, New York, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Connecticut. He's all out in the East. Over there doing those original 13 colonies. Yeah. Yep, then Washington, D.C., and then he goes south. Then he's going south for the winter. Orlando, Florida, Key West, Florida, Clearwater. Ponte Verde. Smart. Ponte Verdra Vedra? I don't know how to say that. Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
SPEAKER_02I gotta tell you, you weren't lying, Cindy, when you said Key West would be great. That would.
SPEAKER_03I would love to do that. So and I think his in-laws live in Florida. Yeah. So he'll be there for a while. Yeah, I saw that he was going to Key West before he even announced it.
SPEAKER_04That was interesting. Yeah, sometimes things get leaked. Yeah, they do. If the venue leaks it. I was like, wow, we're all going to Key West.
SPEAKER_00We're all going to Key West.
SPEAKER_03That was my guess. Before he said anything. So yeah, Key West was mentioned. And then after Florida, he goes to Woodlands, Texas, Arlington, Texas, Standing Florida. Arlington again. Yes, he was there.
SPEAKER_04I've been to the last two in Arlington. Okay, yeah. So he must like it there.
SPEAKER_03That must be a popular spot.
SPEAKER_02That's okay. I think that just sounds like a whole lot of shows for a very short period of time.
SPEAKER_03I know.
SPEAKER_02That is a lot of shows.
SPEAKER_03I'm impressed. Man. Yeah. So Arlington, Texas, San Antonio, then San Francisco, California, Los Angeles, California. He ends on December 20th. Wow. Right before Christmas.
SPEAKER_02And it starts on what date? November It's on November 5th.
SPEAKER_03So what is that? Seven weeks of just packing them in? Seven, eight weeks, yeah. And I'm thinking if his mom goes to a show, it might be the last one in Los Angeles. I mean, if she goes to any. Yeah. I'm thinking Los Angeles at the end.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_03LA. Wrapping it up. And you never know, too. He's added shows before. Sometimes he went to some places after Christmas, like for New Year's. So keep looking. Yeah, surprise. Yes, he did that before. So keep looking because that would not be unusual for him to add more shows.
SPEAKER_02No, it wouldn't be.
SPEAKER_03So I don't know how. He would. If he's enjoying himself, maybe he will. Good for him. God bless you. But he'll be out west by that time. So I'm assuming the shows
Winery Trip And Updates
SPEAKER_03would be West. So we'll find out.
SPEAKER_04Back home.
SPEAKER_02So speaking of going places, ladies, we do have we do have one thing that we're gonna do together as a podcast group. Oh no, I'm so excited. Dame, I knew you were. I am so excited. I said, oh my goodness. Oh my goodness gracious.
SPEAKER_04And the goosebumps.
SPEAKER_02So like I said earlier, that Sean does host these um winery events for the wine club meeting. Even if you don't drink. Yep. And yeah. And this year, for the first time, all three of us will go to the wine event this coming October. We will all be.
SPEAKER_03This will be my first time, and I'm looking forward to it.
SPEAKER_02So Dame and I am too. Dame went without us, and now the three of us are going.
SPEAKER_03Yes. So so excited. So we'll find out all about this uh winery.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, we might come back with some cool stories for a podcast. You never know. We oh, I think we're gonna have a lot to share after that.
SPEAKER_04Well, he sits at the tables and tells stories. He really does. He loves telling stories and we love listening.
SPEAKER_02Yes. That's gonna be a nice time, and it's not a horrible time of year to travel. It's next month. It's uh I mean in October.
SPEAKER_03October, it'd be kind of mild. Just jump in a skip and we'll be there. Well, it's Southern California still, right? So it's still warm.
SPEAKER_04And that's like oh, I remember, was it last October when I went? And I literally had planned to wear a slight, you know, like a little jacket or something. I did not need it. It was so hot.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, it's it's warm in Southern California. So that's gonna be a nice, uh, a nice trip for the three of us. Other than just, you know, the Sean shows, I don't think we've gotten together in a location before.
SPEAKER_04Right. At an event. So this will be just a fun thing to do, all of us together.
SPEAKER_02Maybe we should do a Facebook Live while we're there. Why not?
SPEAKER_04Good idea. Then everybody could enjoy it.
SPEAKER_02Make sure to follow us on our social media and we will pop in and you know let people know how things are going and what's happening. And we'll just keep you kind of up to date a little bit. Why not?
SPEAKER_03Everybody would love to see that. I know I would.
SPEAKER_02I was more thinking like before the event, like not at the event, of course. I don't think that we Sean would appreciate our story live at his event. Okay. But you know, when we get there and different times throughout this the visit there.
SPEAKER_04Right. Like we did last year when we were together in Illinois and Wisconsin.
SPEAKER_02Yes. Mm-hmm. So it'll be fun. Just keep following us. We don't always know what we're gonna do, but believe me, we do it and it'll happen.
SPEAKER_03You want to include the fans so everybody knows what Sean's doing and what we're doing.
SPEAKER_02I think the day before the Sean event, there's a vineyard event, like a wine tape. But yeah, we'll be keeping people informed and up to date on our little escapades in Southern California.
SPEAKER_03Why not California? You know, like Sean takes us with him when he goes, we will do the same. Yes, yeah, take the fans with us.
Listener Requests And Sign Off
SPEAKER_03So excited.
SPEAKER_02So, you guys, I think this has been great. We just got together for the first time in a few months, and we have a lot of fun stuff coming up. And yeah, we're pretty excited to hear about this tour.
SPEAKER_03Real excited. Because I didn't think it was on the list.
SPEAKER_02And I certainly didn't think what you just read off. I was, I'm like, really? That must be. So many.
SPEAKER_03Holy crap! Yeah. I know. That's almost that's like almost every other day.
SPEAKER_02He wouldn't be doing it if he didn't like it. Yeah, we are. You know what I think? I think touring is like giving an animal a taste of the meat that once they taste it, they gotta have it again and again and again. Well, his brother did that. His brother toured till the end. Yeah, so maybe I don't know that he will continuously do it every single year like David did. David didn't stop there. He just did it literally till the end. Yes, he I think he should write a a Broadway production, get Patrick in front of the uh, because Patrick is behind the scenes theater. Get bring Patrick back to the front of the scenes and put the thing on, even okay, I'm calling it a Broadway, a stage production, write a stage production and it's at Patrick's Theater and Theater. Get the singing going with the Cassidy.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, if it's a Broadway play, he's gotta get his brother involved. And then Drian can be a good thing.
SPEAKER_02Even if it doesn't make it on Broadway to Broadway, let it let I think a nice theater production starring Sean and Patrick Cassidy and let and let Ryan do all the set design for it. There you go, Ryan. Right? Yep. That's what I'm throwing out.
SPEAKER_03Well, if he does do a Broadway show, I'll be there.
SPEAKER_02This was great.
SPEAKER_03This was great. We yeah, we have events coming up, and yeah, we're all looking forward to it. So many. We'll see what happens. Let you know about our adventures. The adventures of the Sean Squad Society. Exactly. With the three musketeers. That's yep. All right. Thanks, you guys. This was so much fun. Fun. Always have fun on this podcast. I'm glad you're listening. And let us know too what's what songs you think he should do. Yeah. In a set. Let us know.
SPEAKER_02You can leave a uh talk back here, I think it's called. And um, you can follow us on social media. There's something, a place there you could put it your response. And we'd love to hear what you think. Yeah. Perfect. Thanks you guys.
