On this episode Aaron takes us back through a history of what Thayer Street in Providence used to be like in the early 90s, the specific way he likes a certain drink and which RI staple is a sham in his eyes, a touching generational story with his family, how often a nearby pizza place would deliver to The Living Room, and the magnificent energy a long-running annual DIY festival was at the beginning!
Plus, listen to the end to hear his band, Hillbilly Graham Crackers, play "Lord Have Mercy" (audio credit: Joseph Carvalho) during From The Living Room To The Parlour: 40 Years of Local Music, which took place on April 18 + 19, 2015 at The Parlour Providence!
