(Still) The Best In Town. At Download Festival 2023, The Blackout reunited, playing their first shows together, since disbanding in 2015. As the podcast was offered to conduct a live stage show at the event, we invited riff master, anger specialist and comedic genius, James "Bob" Davies, on as our special guest, to reflect on the bands comeback shows, behind the scenes prep and what's next. In this conversation, we discuss the feelings of stepping back on stage, getting to warm up with a hometown gig, overwhelming fan reactions, secret rehearsals vs announcing their reunion, mentally overcoming the death of the band, why nostalgia is such a beautiful thing, overthinking little things, life away from music, side projects, classic tour memories, opinions on writing new music, embarrassing himself in front of Faith No More, ridiculous tangents, beautiful moments, touring, 2024 and more! Turn it up and join Sean and Morgan to find out Sappenin' this week!
