I thought it was going to take all of my three day weekend to format, but I did it in one hour, and it looks great. I can't believe I remembered how. It's weird that in person I always sell "Black Dog", but online "Band On The Run" sells much more. My last two episodes on Stitcher had some weird distortion thing in the intros, which I did not cause. That reminds me of how excruciating it was trying to make my CD sound the same across all playing platforms, and I talk about that a little. I talk about recording my album and all the four track recording I did over the years. I had some troubles with my album's producer, who may or may not have had a severe cocaine addiction. I tell how The Cars chose their band name. I talk about some things I heard author Hugh Howey say some things I agree with on another podcast. I talk about the legend of Ozzy Osbourne pissing on the Alamo and whether that is true. I also discuss the world's most prominent scholar of the Alamo, who happens to be a classic rock superstar. I observe the anniversary of Bon Scott's death and do a poor imitation of his replacement, Brian Johnson, which hurts my throat. The anniversary of "Spinal Tap" happened, too, and I talk a little about that movie. One rocker thought it was like a horror movie because it was so real. Next, I talk about Michael McDonald of the Doobie Bros. co-writing "I'll Wait" with David Lee Roth! Ted Templeton got them together. I also talk about Slash's regrets about his image, along with the Glimmer Twins, the Toxic Twins, and Guns n Roses. I tell a story about a Slash show my buddy went to. Finally, I talk about how to enjoy podcasts even if you have a sketchy 3G or 4G connection. You can download your favorites on Stitcher using Wi-Fi and play them back without using a live connection. Thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoy the episode.
