What a journey it’s been. 50 episodes down and many more to come. In this episode we discuss how supply shortages have begun to hit manufacturing with musical instruments. Specifically how the shortage of guitar tubes is having an impact on amp sales and what the future holds.
We also have a bit of a fanboy moment in this episode as well. Listen to find out the details.
Thank you all for the support.

Welcome to 2022! This is an episode that we’ve been talking about doing for about six months. We’re very excited to finally flesh it out and share it with all of you.
In this episode we discussed the differences of being a musician in a modern praise and worship enviroment / church, versus being a hired gun / side man with a touring band / artist.
Of course there are many similarities in both environments. But there are some big differences that make a world of change if you’re approaching it with the right mindset and attitude.
Happy New Year, everyone!
