614 Summer Slammer
Notas do episódio
I'm catching up on your voicemails, podcast stickers are here, and MxPx is on every Vans Warped Tour date this summer and fall. Amelia asked what video games I play, which took me from Pong through Zelda, Skate or Die, Mortal Kombat, Madden, and Tony Hawk Pro Skater. I was a fan before we were ever on the soundtrack. Rich asked which bass got the first Pokinatcha Punk pick guard, so I go through my StingRay history, from the first one I put on layaway to my Sterling by Music Man signature bass. David Herrera (no relation) called asking for some advice for his son who's playing bass at 16: keep it simple, keep it fun, and be consistent every day. Nate's car stereo ate his CD, which got me telling the story of microwaving rejected mixes during Panic and how one of those CDs became the album art. And Frank asked why I switched from fingers to a pick (I smashed my finger in a bus door).
