Manage episode 522060521 series 3591260
The show is explained.
We get one thing out of the way: The greatest generation of music is knocking on heaven's door - go see them live NOW.
We do a plug for Dynamic Bitcoin.
We meet Frank X Gallagher, the man behind the console, at your live concerts, who makes the B-52's, The Talking Heads and others - sound incredible. Fresh off the road doing sound for B-52's/Devo/Lene Lovich shows nationwide, Frank takes a break after Thanksgiving to join the show. Frank has done everything in live rock, from Scotland to New York City, to the west coast and everywhere in between. We talk 60's, 70's, 80's artists, and go under the covers a bit on how live sound lives and breathes, and how Morrissey ducked tossed links.
We play "Thank You, No Thank You" and Frank is a gentleman and shows you who is worthy, and kindly, who is not.
We finish as always with Disclaimers and Thank You's.
