Episode 53. Andy Rice. Hard Work & Hard Lessons in Booking Hardcore Bands.

Most of the bands that would come to rise in the era at the outset of This Is Hardcore Fest, Sound & Fury and United Blood are bands that would or have been booked by Andy Rice. His story is much like so many others on the show. Self taught from touring in previous bands, lead him to be able to become one of the busiest and successful booking agents from 04 onward. His story and principles on how to work within our world is focused here. There is still so much to go on with Andy beyond what we captured in these 2 hours, but Andy is someone who is not only a friend of mine, but has done so much to keep the ball rolling for so many hardcore bands. He comes at this from a very strong will backed with blue collar approach and has alot of ethics that separated him from so many of his peers.
