#13 Failed Bands and Breakups
For our one year podcast anniversary, we invited past guests Adam T Davis (Gnarboots, Episode 4), Pink Thunder (Robo Beat ‘Em Up, Episode 5), and Joey Guthrie (Curious Quail, Episode 6) to talk about past bands and breakups. We learned some of the early stories of how past musical projects came and went, and how we got to where we are now.
At the end of the episode, hear a few songs from our past dug up from the vaults. First, an early Gnarboots incarnation, “Fashion Police” by The Fashion Police. Second, “In The Flow” from the King Penguin Quartet, featuring Professor Robot on bass. Third, hear “Ricci” by The Spanky Hockenpuss band with Doctor Octave on vocals and drums. Finally, endure “Human Harvest” by Spuck, a necessary step on the road to Robo Beat ‘Em Up.
