Ch. 21 - Seriously, Man, You're Fired!

“Am I Famous Yet?” chronicles the life of a working musician who has gotten to know renowned rock stars.

Follow this sideman’s hilariously heartbreaking search for fame, financial stability, and the ever-elusive quest for emotional peace of mind.

Ivan “Funkboy” Bodley has performed with 50 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, appeared in 12 Broadway shows, and is a Blues Hall of Fame inductee.
