Greg and Dan Interview Vinnie Amico of moe. Ahead of Peoria Riverfront Show

Greg and Dan sit down with Vinnie Amico, longtime drummer for the iconic jam band moe., to discuss the group’s upcoming performance on August 7th at the Peoria Riverfront from 7–10 PM. The show is part of the band’s ongoing summer tour, and promises a night of vibrant music and celebrating over three decades of musical exploration.

moe. was originally formed in Buffalo, New York, in 1989, and Vinnie joined the band in 1996. Known for their improvisational live performances and loyal fan base, moe. has become a cornerstone of the jam band genre.

Vinnie reflects on the band’s 35-year journey, including their early days and pivotal role in helping launch the Peoria-based Summer Camp Music Festival in 2001, as well as their earlier involvement with the Summer Sessions series in 1999. He also shares insight into how the band got its unique name—moe.—and how their sound has evolved over the years.

The band recently released their 14th studio album, Circle of Giants, in January 2025, which Vinnie describes as his personal favorite. The album is a celebration of the band’s 35th anniversary. Despite the decades on the road, Vinnie emphasizes that there’s still excitement every day, and the band remains passionate as they prepare for the next leg of their tour.

Greg and Dan talk with Jason Chapman of Quality Water Solutions about the growing concern of lead contamination in Peoria's water supply — an issue that has gained enough traction to make Chicago news headlines. Chapman sheds light on how this long-standing problem is resurfacing, with historical roots dating back over 30 years. Illinois once held the highest levels of lead contamination in the nation, and it appears that aging infrastructure is now bringing those concerns back into focus.

Chapman explains that several risk factors contribute to elevated lead levels, including the age of water delivery systems, older plumbing fixtures, and residential construction prior to 2014, when lead components were still commonly used in pipes, faucets, and soldering materials.

To help residents determine if their homes are affected, water testing kits and sample collection services are available. These kits can detect whether lead or other contaminants are present in tap water. Chapman notes that while federal and state governments have funded pipe replacement initiatives, progress is gradual and the issue could take years to fully resolve.

Beyond lead, water contamination includes other serious threats such as heavy metals, bacteria, and even microplastics. These additional pollutants further emphasize the need for comprehensive testing and long-term infrastructure improvements.
