Gig Hoes

A very special episode with Mark “The Animal” Mendoza, the legendary bass player of Twisted Sister, who takes the Hoes through the ins and outs and ups and downs of the rock star life. #markmendoza #twistedsister #marktheanimal #vondashepad credit of the month/week New Old Music from  Marla https://open.spotify.com/album/5WZt8gTfi83BlJneoE0Z3w?si=oYtOcD1IQ-2tHjUp9paU4g  

Taking a left turn, the Hoes interview comedian Susie Felber, who proves that you don’t have to be a musician to be a Gig Ho. Whether she’s performing in a club, a laundromat or a prison, Susie leaves them rolling in the aisles, even when there aren’t any.

From playing nightmare bowling alley gigs to heavy metal festivals for thousands of screaming fans, prolific guitarist, bassist and singer Tia Clark has seen it all, and lived to tell the Hoes about it.

What do you do when your instrument is bigger than you are? Renowned harpist Claudia Wigent brings ‘the coolest toy to the party’, but getting it in, out, up and down can be quite a challenge. 

Special Video Version on Youtube! Street closures, flaming trucks, a bottleneck of human flesh: an in-depth look at one epic New Year’s gig in midtown Manhattan with the Hoes and podcast alumni Larry Ballereau and Warren Odze. 

Just like the postman, neither sleet nor snow nor dark of night stops the Hoes from delivering holiday cheer.

Willa's brother Larry Bassen, the original club date rocker, tells tales of larcenous band leaders, Brazilian showgirls, epic practical jokes, and more.

Downed trees, mudslides, blizzards, ice storms, 12 hour traffic jams: sometimes the hardest part of the gig is getting home. Credit Of The Week: https://youtu.be/pXxm1bHWN-4 Apple:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/gig-hoes/id1691015332

Trumpet player and preeminent music agent Norman Spizz has seen it all, from dinner with Joe DiMaggio to ‘bark’ mitzvahs to primate ushers.

23 hour plane rides. Communicable diseases. Wrong side of the road mishaps. From Hawaii to Cancun to Thailand, from hurricanes to Hershey squirts, when gigging out of town, anything can happen, and usually does. Credit Of The Week Link: https://on.soundcloud.com/DrK3E
