Welcome to the Cold Beer Surf Club. Your host is none other than pro surfer, musician, gardener, boat owner, Santa Barbara lifer, and 805 Beer athlete Conner Coffin. In the inaugural episode, he kicks things off with special guest Chris Shiflett, lead guitarist for the Foo Fighters. Despite their different journeys around the globe - Conner on the Championship Tour, Chris on countless rock and roll tours - they connect over tour life, the parties and temptations of youth, the day-to-day toll on your body, and battling nerves. A fellow Santa Barbara local, Chris looks back at starting his career in the SB music scene, the bands that influenced him most, turning his passion into his profession, his first break in the punk band No Use For A Name, and how he joined Foo Fighters. Conner and Chris also nerd out on guitar gear, give some gardening tips, and relive a memorable surf session with Tom Curren and Bobby Martinez.
