Episode 101: Bob Schneider

keep that stiffy rollin'
hello my friends! i hope you're all happy and healthy. i just got in from a show in houston. the show & the drive home were good. when i travel with skyrocket!, i ride with paul and cory (who wrote and sings our theme song, "needle hits the groove"). we had a talk this  morning about our first time hearing kiss and van halen. it was a very nostalgic conversation and it made me happy. also, i recorded it. we call ourselves, "the sharks", so i thought it would be cool to have a short segment on the show called, "the shark chronicles". it would just a couple of minutes of one of our conversations during our travels. look for that soon!
my guest for episode 101 is austin music juggernaut, bob schneider. i've known bob for almost 20 years and although we're not close, i consider him a friend. he is the most prolific artist i've ever met. he is constantly making music, art, poetry and always playing shows. he has a huge following in austin and around the united states. he's created a career for himself based on great songs and live shows, and he's managed to keep his audience growing and growing. the guy is really amazing.  i hope you enjoy our conversation in his green room before soundcheck as much as i did.
