  • EP 488 - Hard Working Metal
    A lot of people suffer under the misconception that if you’re a “known” musician that you have it made.
    Our guests this week certainly turn that on it’s head as Dave Ellefson and Joel Hoekstra give a rundown of what they’ve been doing during these Covid quarantine times.
    These are certainly two guys that are doing anything but kicking back and doing nothing. Be sure to support them and grab a copy of Dave’s “No Cover” and Joels’s “Running Games”.
