Hello everybody sorry we are late this week we've been on the road as you know and all of the episodes that we did before we left town of been used and we are live, and will be live, every week from the Happy Together Tour. We have this little short episode to give you all a little tour of things hope you enjoy the short visit and will see you again every week now from the tour!

Hello everybody it's us live not taped ahead of time. We are just finishing up our 2nd break on the Happy Together Tour. We thought we'd take everyone through the typical day out there on the tour and let you know what it's like on the bus and at the venues and how it all goes down out there. Hope you enjoy some of the insights and we'll have some terrific guests heading in to August and the autumn. Thanks everybody see you on the road!

Carl Giammarese, one of the founding and still current members of The Buckinghams, sat down and visited with us. We've toured many summers with the Buckinghams and have gotten to know Carl very well. Even so it's such a pleasure to visit and hear things we still didn't know about and delve a little deeper. The Buckinghams rocked the '60's and beyond with a sound that ultimately would help blaze the path and open the doors for their fellow Chicago musicians trying to make it big, the group "Chicago". Hits like "Kind of a Drag", "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy", "Don't You Care?" and of course "Susan" cemented The Buckinghams as one of the top groups producing hits in the '60's. Enjoy the episode.

Ian Anderson is a genius. He really is. What a story what a visit we have to say. Ian brought a new dimension to "frontman" with the arrival of Jethro Tull. He played the flute like a lead guitarist plays a guitar and developed a stage character that could be theatric, entertaining and somewhat even intimidating at times (or as Ian put it, "...the girls really never approached me"). He is a man beyond his flute and his gifts to this planet are beyond his music. We would even suggest going through some of the research like we did before listening. We didn't even know where to begin. A fine British fellow!

Kara McKee is a singer/songwriter who had an amazing adventure on "The Voice" when she was chosen by John Legend to be on Team Legend. Her experience was something and we got an insight into the scene behind "The Voice" and how the whole thing works. Kara is the daughter of the governor of Rhode Island, Dan McKee, and a brilliant financial talent also. She opened for us when we recently performed in Westerly, Rhode Island and sang her beautiful songs and had a great performance. Please enjoy getting to know Kara McKee.

Yes Chris Carter is synonymous with "Breakfast with the Beatles" his fantastic Sunday morning show on Sirius XM now in its 15th year. But Chris is also the founder of the 80's/90's band Dramarama. Chris is also a film/rock documentary producer most notable for producing the "Mayor of the Sunset Strip", a rock documentary about the life of renowned LA DJ Rodney Bingenheimer. Lots to go over with Chris and it was a blast....enjoy.

In the late '70's through the early to mid '80's the Cars were it. Their first album sold over 6 million copies and they had hit after hit including "You Might Think", "Drive", "Just What I Needed" and "Good Times Roll" to name more than a few. As you can imagine Rock 'n Roll Hall of Famer Elliot Easton, who's signature lead guitar work would become identified as part of the Cars "sound", has a story to tell and it's so good to hear how some of these major bands found themselves and their audience and Elliot and the Cars are no exception.

We're having a sibling visit today talking about this and that. We can't tell you how many times we schedule a subject matter and then once we get going we don't get to it and we talk about other things. That's kind of what happened here so just enjoy the visit, lots of guests coming we're rocking it on the Happy Together Tour and see out there!

In this weeks episode we introduce you to the great singer Steve Augeri who was the guy who stepped into the lead singer's role vacated by Journey's Steve Perry when Perry's voice gave way to the years of strain singing Journey songs. Steve Augeri was to fill that roll for 8 years but his story goes beyond Journey as you can imagine. So relax, sit back and enjoy a visit with Steve Augeri.
