Life In The Stocks

The life of a musician can be tough on the body and mind, especially when you throw alcohol in the mix. Here, in Episode 029 of Life In The Stocks, punk troubadour Dave Hause (The Loved Ones) discusses his new found sobriety, which leads to a deeper discussion about friendship, maturity, creativity and music. Thanks to Dave for being such a great guest and a stand up guy.Follow Matt Stocks on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram: @mattstocksdjCheck out the Life In The Stocks Patreon page, support this podcast, and get all kinds of extras in return, from bonus podcasts & DJ mixes to archive print interviews & radio shows.www.patreon.com/lifeinthestocksMatt's first book, 'Life In The Stocks: Veracious Conversations with Musicians & Creatives (Vol. 01)' is also out NOW and is available via Amazon, Waterstones & Rare Bird Publishing.https://rarebirdlit.com/life-in-the-stocks-veracious-conversations-with-musicians-creatives/ Hosted on Acast.

The resulting talk includes stories of five-a-side football with David Bowie, parenthood, partying, growing up in Wales, singing with Tom Jones, war & terrorism, technology & social media, and plenty of heart warming tales about the late great Stuart Cable.

Maverick comedian, actor, broadcaster and movie maker Tom Green joins Matt for this special episode of Life In The Stocks. As a lifelong fan of the original prankster, Matt relished the opportunity to talk to Tom about everything from Freddie Got Fingered and The Tom Green Show to his battle (and ultimate triumph) with cancer and the stigma of being Tom Green. This is an episode NOT to be missed.Follow Matt Stocks on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram: @mattstocksdjCheck out the Life In The Stocks Patreon page, support this podcast, and get all kinds of extras in return, from bonus podcasts & DJ mixes to archive print interviews & radio shows.www.patreon.com/lifeinthestocksMatt's first book, 'Life In The Stocks: Veracious Conversations with Musicians & Creatives (Vol. 01)' is also out NOW and is available via Amazon, Waterstones & Rare Bird Publishing.https://rarebirdlit.com/life-in-the-stocks-veracious-conversations-with-musicians-creatives/ Hosted on Acast.

This week's guest on Life In The Stocks is the best kept secret in rock 'n' roll: Mr. Michael Monroe. Michael made his name in the early '80s as the singer in Hanoi Rocks, without whom there would arguably be no Motley Crue or Guns N' Roses. After Hanoi split in 1985, Michael began a solo career that's still going strong three decades later, and over the years he's forged lifelong friendships with a who's who of rock royalty: Alice Cooper, Steven Tyler, Axl Rose, Slash, Lemmy, Dave Grohl, Steven Van Zandt, Ian Hunter, Johnny Thunders, Stiv Bators & Ginger Wildheart...the list is endless, making this an extra special episode with a bonafide rock 'n' roll legend!Follow Matt Stocks on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram: @mattstocksdjCheck out the Life In The Stocks Patreon page, support this podcast, and get all kinds of extras in return, from bonus podcasts & DJ mixes to archive print interviews & radio shows.www.patreon.com/lifeinthestocksMatt's first book, 'Life In The Stocks: Veracious Conversations with Musicians & Creatives (Vol. 01)' is also out NOW and is available via Amazon, Waterstones & Rare Bird Publishing.https://rarebirdlit.com/life-in-the-stocks-veracious-conversations-with-musicians-creatives/ Hosted on Acast.

To celebrate this landmark episode of the podcast, Life In The Stocks brings you its most vulnerable conversation yet. The guest is Ryan Hamilton, formerly of Smile Smile & People On Vacation and now a solo artist in his own right. Even if you don't know Ryan's music you'll want to hear his story. Think Rumours-era Fleetwood Mac but with less cocaine - although Ryan did once smoke a joint with Woody Harrelson. It's a story of friendship, adultery and betrayal, and of second chances, hope and joy. Enjoy!
