Dive Bar Mitzvah

This episode accidentally became bittersweet. We chat about David Bowie's birthday and knowing he can't last forever, comedy at rock shows and if you can do a cleanse while drinking 3.2 beer. We also try to avoid a growing but very real displeasure to our presence. This all makes it a *great* episode. Follow us @divebarmitzvah!

In this episode we're back in the Big Easy chatting with former I.R.S. Records A&R man John Guarnieri about his time in the music biz-- and what a time it was! From hanging out with the Cramps to signing the Bangles to controversies with the Dead Kennedys and laughing Mötley Crüe out of his office, it's a look back at a great time for music from someone who witnessed it on the front lines.
