Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Rick Beato Brings His Buzz To New Zealand
Q: So when you go and do these talks, which you're going to do, what do you expect from the audience? What can they expect from you?
Rick explains that he opens with personal stories, does careful song breakdowns, and values an engaging Q&A where audiences ask varied questions based on location, with AI and other topics trending at times but shifting to more traditional curiosities over time.
Rat Scabies of The Damned Can’t Believe It’s Been 50 Years!
Q: And what was Nick Lowe like to work with at that time?
Nick Lowe was great and decisive; he pushed us along, picked takes, and helped us capture the energy in a couple of days, which made the album feel urgent and alive.
Rat Scabies of The Damned Can’t Believe It’s Been 50 Years!
Q: Right. So I gotta ask you, when you perform a song like New Rose, which you recorded 50 years ago, and it was a big deal back then, what does it feel like now when you play a song like that?
The play and the adrenaline have changed with age, but the energy of the crowd still gives me a buzz, and I try to stay in the moment even as I focus more on technique and avoiding the pitfalls of aging on stage.
Delaney Davidson and The Fall Of Lucifer
Q: What was it like working with your co-producers and musicians on this album?
He describes collaborative sessions as varied and dynamic, with separate approaches from different contributors, and shares anecdotes about studio experiments and specific instrumental textures.
Delaney Davidson and The Fall Of Lucifer
Q: What drives you to keep making music after all these years?
He emphasizes continual learning and curiosity about recording, production, and the craft of singing, saying the process of discovery keeps him moving, not solely commercial goals.
