I'm thrilled to welcome Warped Tour founder, college professor, philanthropist and all-round scene legend Kevin Lyman onto the podcast this week. Kevin is someone I've always wanted to have on the show and it was so good to finally make it happen. Huge shout out to his daughter Sierra for linking it up. If you're interested in US punk rock, the inner workings of the music industry and the organisation of mass scale live events, Woodstock '99, Kevin's take on the whole Dickies debacle, why the Warped Tour came to an end, what he's up to nowadays, and the future of punk rock music, this is an episode you do not want to miss. Thanks to Kevin for taking the time out to do it.
