Tales from a rocker in a walker

Bonus episode 'In this episode, I discuss songs with dark origins that don't sound dark. This is a bonus episode, so it's a little bit more off the cuff than some of the others. Please excuse the brief pause that I had to take, but I do hope you enjoy it. You'll hear about songs from Third Eye Blind, the band, and other bands like the one who famously brought us the song 'Teenage Dirtbag,' and seemingly harmless songs that are not actually harmless at all, like 'Three Blind Mice' and more.

In this episode, we discuss hilarious stories from the road, the infamous fart from hell that smelled around the world, favorite concerts, instruments, how the band Flannel came to be, and much more.

In this episode, I talk with Flannel front man Patrick Roberts about new projects, stories, and opinions regarding all three bands he's been involved in, concerts he's attended, and one great story about the interesting spelling of the word 'eyes,' among much more. This was another fun episode to do, as many of you know, the members of Flannel have been friends of mine for years, so much so that they've become some of my chosen family. I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as I enjoyed doing it. We didn't get to some of the social media questions yet, but those will be addressed at a later time.

In this episode, I recap Stitchfest that took place at the 445 Lounge and Grill this weekend. It truly was an amazing gathering, featuring the bands Flannel Good Fire, Paradise White, and The Outside Kids, all to benefit the local Friday feeds that are put on for the homeless and those in need here in Rapid City. This episode is a little shorter, but I think I covered everything, and I hope you enjoy it.
