Rock 'n' Roll Grad School

This week, we visit our sister show, Why? and talk about one of the most popular movie musicals of all time.

How can you not love The Rocky Horror Picture Show? And, even though he's not everyone's favorite, how can you not at least have a soft spot in your heart for Barry Bostwick's Brad Majors? 

This October, Barry, Patricia Quinn ("Magenta" in the movie) and Nell Campbell (the one and only "Little Nell") are taking the film on the road and celebrating the movie live and in person. For more information and dates, check out the show's website.

Do you like hard rock and metal? You'll love Night Laser. The Hamburg-based band is just about to release their 5th full-length record. For more information, you can check out the band's website.

Plus, we have a special announcement about a big event we're doing!

Legs McNeil is a writer who was there for many great moments in the history of music. Now, the co-author of "Please Kill Me," is telling his own story with "Resident Punk." It's a blast.

For more information, check out Legs' substack.

Vered Benhorin writes songs for families and her latest album is a collaboration with her son. "Adorable You" is a unique collaboration and children's music for people who don't like children's music.

For more information, check out her website.

Joyous Wolf is rock and roll. Their debut record just came out and it is a blast. We talked with their guitarist Blake Allard. For more information, check out their website.

To listen to a Kamelot record is to go on a journey. And their new record, "Dark Asylum," is a new approach to the storytelling that fans have come to love. We sat down with founding member Thomas Youngblood.

For more information and to get your copy of "Dark Asylum," check out the band's website.

First, there's the name. It's great. Let's get that out of the way. And then there's the new record from this band called Audrey Horne. It's great too.

Mike Vos is a photographer and musician. His first album "A Thin Wall of Vellum" is coming out next month. We talked with Mike about his music and his photography and where the two intersect. For more information and to order his record, check out his website. 

This week we sit down with Primus drummer John Hoffman. Hoffer got the job after being selected among thousands of applicants for the job and going through the band's interstellar drum derby.
