All Over The Map

After almost seventeen years Jon Allen is leaving (has left), the Steve Tyrell Band! He takes us through what he actually did and didn’t do during that time as well talking about his law school plans and what it took to get prepped for all of that crazy business. Pianist Gary Matsumoto and guitarist Grant Geissman join in on the conversation adding the momentum needed to complete this episode because Kevin was busy eating. Lyman with his gift of gab basically saved the podcast, (just ask him).

Hey hey hey it’s the 30th episode of All Over The Map and because NOBODY demanded it and after about twenty-two years, the boys are finally BACK! And since they are NOT original in their collective thinking at all they did this episode AGAIN at you guessed it, Catalina Jazz Club. They reminisce about The Jazz Cruise 2019 from which they had recently returned and tell stories of hanging on the ship with some of the best musicians that Jazz has to offer. They also talk about the week before the cruise, which included three gigs in TX and then it was off to Atlanta, South Carolina, and then BACK to Atlanta where fellow drummer and podcaster (www.workingdrummer.net), Zack Albetta showed up to check out a show. It was crazy few weeks to say the least!

Lyman shares the good news that he is going to be Best Man for Jon Allen’s upcoming wedding in August and once again they make the annual trip to Italy and Kevin talks about the other places he visited while in Europe. (Don’t be jelly). And big changes have come to the Steve Tyrell camp…

Episode 28 comes to you Dear Listener (for the second time), from the Emerald City! Kevin talks about the completion of his upgraded home studio and staying busy during the summer recording projects for clients at home. AND believe it or not he gets on another diet HOWEVER, this time it’s really working! In the What’s New department Lyman and Kevin back up some well-known singers for Miriam Garfield’s 80th Birthday Bash. (She’s the sidekick on the show http://martiniinthemorning.com/). Lyman along with his group Black Market Reverie, also perform at the shindig.

Kevin the previous night attempts to open up a wine bottle, which just so happens to have a twist off corkscrew and Lyman, hogs the playlist on his computer. Lyman’s son makes the Granada Hills All-Star Little League Team and finally, the guys get sidetracked talking about the videogame Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Once again Lyman and Kevin find themselves driving to LAX. Shocking, we know. Lyman discusses his displeasure for the renovations being done at LAX and their new policies. Kevin promotes his guest appearance on Zack Albetta’s Working Drummer Podcast, (http://www.workingdrummer.net/) and Lyman has a new CD along with singer Renee Myara. It’s a mixture of jazz, classic French pop, Americana and their own original songs. The name of the band is called Black Market Reverie (https://www.blackmarketreverie.com/), and their debut release is entitled "The Rainy Days". Kevin finally took the plunge and invested into revamping and upgrading his home studio, http://www.kevinwinard.com/studio.html. Be sure to visit his page to hear samples of his work for hire! And oh yeah, Kevin started Weight Watchers. 

Lyman hires Kevin to record some drums for a song that Lyman produced for actor David Haydn Jones. David is best known for his recurring role as Mr. Ketch on the hit show Supernatural. The song is “Makin’ Bacon” and you can find it on CD Baby, https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/davidhaydnjones and on iTunes. All of the proceeds go to David’s favorite charity, The Alzheimer’s Foundation of America!

It’s only taken five months but Lyman and Kevin have another podcast! In this episode Kevin talks about his trip to Steve Tyrell’s cardiologist in NYC and they both share the amazing experiences that they had the week prior on Jazz Cruise 2018. There was fun to be had, librations to be consumed and music, music, MUSIC to be heard!

Kevin turns 53 and Lyman has a new CD coming out featuring him playing ukulele, bass and singing. Kevin does not, however he IS considering revamping his home studio. So there is that.

Buona Sera! Hey hey hey, it’s the twenty-fifth episode of All Over The Map and as promised Lyman and Kevin recorded it in BEAUTIFUL Toscana, Italia at the gorgeous Monteverdi, Tuscany! (https://monteverdituscany.com/) The boys decided to try something new and asked many of the folks who stayed the week at Monteverdi as well as some of the employees to join in on the festivities and talk about some of their favorite moments. As always, there’s plenty of ball busting to go around and also there were some very special guests like Lauren Tyrell who just so happens to be the boss’s daughter, her husband Nathan who is one of the funniest people on the planet and brand spankin’ new newlyweds Glenn and Rene Allan! The Chief Financial Officer and all around good egg, Steve Abbott explains the origins of Monteverdi and Kevin espouses the talents of his girlfriend’s driving techniques. After all she IS Asian…Francisco Trejo who works with the owner of Monteverdi (Michael Cioffi), takes things up a notch by offering to hire another band for next year’s events and THEN proceeds to spill his wine all over Kevin. Good times indeed! Lyman chimes in on Jon Allen’s marvelous navigational skills and Jon’s better half Abigail shares her favorite experiences. The lovely Karin Lindenberg from Germany warms our heart by contributing a beautiful and poignant moment and finally, Bob Mann may or may not have pushed his wife down a flight of stairs. It’s noisy and raucous BUT an amazing time was had by all! We hope you enjoy… AND don’t forget, if you like us OR hate us (we don’t care either way, we just crave the attention), please visit our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/alloverthemappodcast/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel or give us a rave review on iTunes! https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/all-over-the-map/id996286878?mt=2.

After a whirlwind trip to Ohio the boys decide to try something new: Bookend Podcasts! That’s right folks, they did back to back podcasts. (Not really, they were five days apart) The previous episode had them driving TO LAX. This episode has them driving FROM LAX back to the Valley. Simply incredible.

While in baggage claim Lyman out of the kindness of his heart buys Kevin a Starbucks coffee but gets the order wrong (of course), and then expects Kevin to carry it to his car when he knows damn well how much luggage Kevin has. So typical of Lyman…

They regale about how incredibly well treated they were by the people who hired their boss man Steve Tyrell and the band and cover the weekend’s festivities on and off the stage. Lyman goes to a Mud Hens baseball game the first night without Kevin because that's how Lyman rolls.

Kevin talks about reconnecting with old friend Scott Lavender and his wife (music director for Johnny Mathis), from his Captain & Tennille days. And being the topical intellectuals that they are, they give a blow by blow of the McGregor/Mayweather fight.

The boys give a shout out to their super duper listeners Cathy LaFever and Cat Ellen. Kevin then exposes lifelong friend Todd Pierce who has a Disney podcast with 20,000 listeners per month on how he won’t help promote All Over The Map. Some friend indeed…

Be sure to check out Episode 25, which will be coming to you from beautiful Toscana, Italy!

The boys are back! Episode 23 takes place on the way to LAX where Lyman and Kevin get caught up on the summer’s events. Lyman is the busiest bass player in Show Business and Kevin actually has four days of recording sessions in a row. (It’s a Festivus Miracle!).

Lyman and his family take a vaycay to D.C. While back home in Los Angeles he does a couple of personal recording projects and considers starting his own record label. To combat this Kevin isn’t quite as productive but is proud of the fact that his goatee is getting longer.

They then both talk about their next big trip, which just so happens to be in Italy! And yes, they promise THIS time to do a podcast!

The guys finish off this episode by talking about LA traffic and the potholes (pun intended), of this season of Games Of Thrones…Nerd alert!

Vegas Baby! That’s right folks Lyman and Kevin come to you from downtown Vegas! (Just remember: What happens in Pacoima stays in Downey…). They MAY or MAY not had been over-served the previous night. Who are we kidding, they were both suffering from the Booze Flu as Lyman’s Mother likes to call it but through THE POWER OF MUSIC, after playing the show they come back stronger than ever. They discuss the passing of the great Don Rickles and they also talk about the previous weekend where they were once again at Feinstein’s in beautiful San Francisco. (There’s a trivia movie quote in the podcast so if you can answer the question you will win ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!). The great jazz tenor saxophonist Rickey Woodard stops by after the show to say hello to y’all and the boys give tons of shout outs to friends and fans. Not shockingly, Kevin loses yet another bet to Lyman.This is the first time in the history of all of their twenty-one episodes where they decide to break things up and do it multi-city! That’s right folks, through the magic of modern technology the very next day they fly to Amarillo, Texas and continue the episode resulting in having a surprise guest sign off! AND don’t forget, if you like us OR hate us (we don’t care either way, we just crave the attention), please visit our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/alloverthemappodcast/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel or give us a rave review on iTunes! https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/all-over-the-map/id996286878?mt=2.

Ladies and gentlemen: Alert the media...It's our twentieth episode! And what better way to celebrate it than by recording it in a place where we've been time and time again. That's right, the world famous Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. In this not-so-historic episode Lyman serenades you dear listener (and me), with a little ditty on his ukulele and he sings too! Kevin discusses the phone interview he did with the wonderful Robyn Flans on her podcast "Robyn Flans Drummer Interviews” and since he was so ill prepared when recording said podcast and couldn’t remember the link here it is for you: https://www.spreaker.com/user/rfdi/kevin-winard.

Lyman and Kevin weather a storm LITERALLY while driving back from Miami with mutual friend Tia Shaffer in tow. Lyman went to his sister's wedding in Hawaii and Kevin once again goes to Costco.
