The first interview I was pretty nervous to conduct as Chris Colohan is one of my favorite vocalists of all time.

Make Do And Mend is an awesome band. James is an awesome dude. He sings for the band. Through the transitive property, I had to interview him for the show and we did just that when I was in Gainsville, Florida for The Fest. We sat down on a park bench and discussed Warped Tour, the perils of being in a relationship while on tour and living in a house full of brothers.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Had a great chat with the bass player, Billy Hamilton, from hardcore/screamo band Silverstein about the transitional life in between a touring band and real life.

Here is an interview I wanted to bring you for quite some time with Keith Latinen, vocalist from the band Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) and owner of Count Your Lucky Stars. I didn't know him at all, but within 10 minutes we were discussing playing in a band with your wife, how one defines success and when does a band make the next "move" up. A very revealing chat from a band that doesn't do a ton of interviews.
