Pete Bloke and Crafter give their thoughts on the current tragic events that have been occurring far too frequently. I play songs from the bands these guys used to be in and want to highlight the importance of a strong friendship group that has your interests in mind. Stay strong.

ORIGINALLY POSTED ON FEBRUARY 22, 2021 ON THE SHINFO X DESMOND PODCAST. Today I spoke with Northlane's guitarist Josh Smith, we chatted about the music industry, early tours, and the struggles that touring from an early age can have on your life down the track. Ive been a big Northlane fan for years, hugely because of them being influenced by my all-time favourite band which is MISERY SIGNALS. i play some songs, we talk shinfo, you know the deal by now. share, like, and subscribe. 

ORIGINALLY POSTED ON FEBRUARY 11, 2021 ON THE SHINFO X DESMOND PODCAST. The most metal dude to ever grace the podcast and the biggest guitar shredder I've ever seen. Mick is in Aversions Crown, and I used to be his roommate on the gold coast. He has been coming to byron bay shows since the early days and is a full blown yes man legend that gets himself into interesting situations by just saying yes. Listen to his stories and see what happens.

Today my special guest is Joel Attenborough, this guy has been in plenty of great hardcore and punk bands in his time, and is the guy that gave me alot of help starting this podcast because he runs his own much more professional sounding podcast called Myage Podcast. i should say the word podcast again i think. We have known each other for years and we talk about life, music and burritos. what else would you want to listen to huh.
