School Nights Only is back. After two months away from the studio, and as our podcast rankings plummet in North Africa, we resume the adventure. This one features a recap of Royel Otis at the Mission Ballroom. 

Kerry Alexander of Bad Bad Hats joins SNO to chat about Lost Lake “diva mode,” the new Psychic Readings cover album, and why the best shows often happen in tight little clubs. Plus: living room tour, under-the-radar recs, and Badfinger over Bad Company.

Life affirming. The SNO crew ends up with access they didn’t pay for, and Chris might have cried a little. Military grade smoke flares, fine, but absolutely no tiny tambos allowed. And what’s with the ice situation?

Casual Drag was excellent, and we love you Edinburgh. Matt (Gimli) and Ryan (Aragorn) survived the hostel just fine. Chris made friends with some Highland cattle.

SNO talks with the frontman for garage-punk trio Casual Drag, ahead of their show at Sneaky Pete's in Edinburgh. We'll be there, and we've been warned not to wear kilts. Plus, The Honky Tonk Shaman deserves better.

The pull of nostalgia is strong with this one. Chris, Matt, and Ryan prepare to head to Edinburgh, Scotland, to see Noel and Liam and buy up all the merch. Plus, we preview our first official School Nights Only show across the sea (not Oasis).

School Nights Only sits and chats with Danny Davis, the man behind Husbands, one of our favorite bands. Chris gets to live out his dream of being a music journalist, Ryan gets to geek out on Oklahoma bands, and Matt, well, poor Matt had technical difficulties. 

The Blue Stones are not the best band from Canada. According to Matt, Tragically Hip has them beat by a long way.  Also, Chris gets out of a parking ticket ... In Canada. They're so nice.

In this bring-a-friend episode, Josh and Eric stop by to chat about their School Nights Only guest experiences. Ryan and Eric get sentimental about their special bond, and Josh was late for the sitter.

 In this very special episode, Chris, Matt, and Ryan each pick four shows they'd immortalize in stone. Chris brought a spreadsheet.
