Thank you for producing a great podcast. Special kudos for Oni Logan and Vickey Hamilton. I was lucky to have seen Guns open for Motley in November of 87 in Greensboro, NC. I had already heard Welcome to the Jungle and loved it. I remember telling my brother that “these guys are going to be huge”. I did see the Use Your Illusion tour in Charlotte and Greensboro as well. It was still a great show but to be honest, it just was not the same after Steven Adler was gone. Thanks again and keep ... more
I just binge listened over the past few days to so many episodes of your show and it brought me so much joy and nostalgia. You remind me of Marc Maron with your ability to relate to your guests but with plenty of space for them to share their stories. Keep going!
He gets - somehow - some decent guests but I laughed out loud as he bragged about what a great interviewer he is - plot spoiler: he isn’t - and yet he’s been trying to get in touch with a previous guest who refuses to answer his calls. Hmmm, I wonder why?
Brando is so chilled and open minded to everyone’s view !
Love this show as it feels so relaxed, no egos and gives ya info ya never knew!
Cheers

A rock-forward interview series centered on iconic hard rock and Guns N' Roses-related culture, history, and legacy.
