Cubs manager Joe Maddon loves talking baseball and music, and he's here to do both. Maddon and good friend Willie Forte join Matt Spiegel to discuss Maddon's upcoming event, the Burnout Classic & Casino Night Fundraiser. The event, set for Saturday, Sept. 2, will occur at Fields Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram in Glenview and listeners can get tickets at eventbrite.com or at bstreetband.com. The event supports Misericordia & Joe Maddon's "Respect 90" foundation.
In addition to discussing the event, Joe and Willie talk about Willie's band "The B Street Band," the longest-running tribute band in the world. The guys discuss their passion for Bruce Springsteen's music and how their friendship continues after so many years.
