Your two favorite weekend warriors did DEEP this week, both into the past and into the philosophical.

Listen as Paul and Dave chat through recent gigs — and those from long ago, including some history on Bitter Pill and Dave’s tour with Hypnotic Clambake.

Gear gab is more about how you use the gear than it is the gear itself, but both iPads and mixers make appearances throughout.

And then it’s a conversation about working with the right — and wrong — kinds of booking agents. As Paul often says, “when someone tells you who they are, believe them!”

Oh, also: Dave is Hairless for the summer.

Always be performing, folks!
