We’re both tired from the weekend, but we can rally to get into our feelings about Nicolas Cage playing John Madden in an upcoming biopic, which leads to football season starting and Steve’s experience sports betting as Nikki takes on a new sports picking endorsement, which of course leads us to Vegas baby! We mourn the loss of Phil Donahue by celebrating his greatest episode “Real Peter Criss vs Fake Peter Criss” and that puts us in the time machine marveling at how we survived a world before the internet and luggage with wheels?! Steve tells us about touring in the ‘80s before GPS & what it was like moving from Baltimore to Kentucky at 10 years old in 1975.

We break down the most recent Journey drama involving Neal Schon, Avenged Sevenfold and Arnel Pineda asking for a million fans to ask him to leave. We also have a beef brewing between Megadeth and Peter Frampton, but that one doesn’t have legs. We also think Frampton can do no wrong. We talk about how Jeff Beck’s legacy is living on with his wife and guitar tech bringing his guitar to his friends, like John Mayer & Billy Gibbons to play. Today is the 5th anniversary of Steve’s book “Hard to Handle” and we talk about his writing process, while Nikki gets the full scoop on some of the stories that didn’t make the final edit. Ahh, and forgive Steve for a bit of spontaneous laryngitis on this podcast.

They Look Like a Bit of a Clown Car Right Now

Steve missed recording our podcast earlier tis week for an epic boat trip, so of course we need to hear about it. But, the real story is all things Jane’s Addiction. Steve gives us his unique take on being in a band that implodes on tour, and we look into recent band break ups, like REO Speedwagon and who’s next? Nikki’s pick is Kansas and Steve’s pick is Foo Fighters.

It’s more Addiction than Jane

We talk about how the Oasis reunion has brought Ticketmaster to the conversation again. We have the insider take with Nikki having worked for Ticketmaster and Steve having toured with Oasis. David Gilmour is talking abut selling Pink Floyd’s catalog again and we speculate on what it’s worth after Queen sold for over $1Bil. Did you ever wonder how money changes a musician? Steve talks about an interesting stipulation with his recent interview with Slash about Guns n Roses. As a drummer, as a musician, as someone who worked with brothers, we get Steve’s thoughts on Alex Van Halen’s forthcoming autobiography “Brothers.” We wrap with (obvs) the return of football season this weekend and our predictions for the San Francisco 49ers🤘
