From the Archives: We had the pleasure of speaking with the boys from Get The Shot at last years Heavy Montreal. Not only are they both insanely talented players, I think we ended up speaking off-camera for almost an hour *after* the interview.  In this interview, we cover everything from tone, gear, recording set-ups and switching to Postive Grid Bias heads.  Hit the links below for more from Get The Shot: https://gettheshot.bandcamp.com/ https://www.facebook.com/gettheshothc https://twitter.com/gettheshothc https://www.instagram.com/gettheshothc/ https://www.youtube.com/user/GetTheShotHC   Music By: Meka Nism

If you've watched TV in Canada in the last 20 years you have either heard or seen Orin Isaacs. In addition to being one, if not the biggest music directors in broadcast here, he is an incredibly talented musician who has been in the game for almost his entire life.  Orin has an absolutely incredible backstory and great insight into the music industry. Now running Swing Low Productions in Toronto, ON I was lucky enough to have him join me for not only a great interview, but great conversation.    https://www.swinglow.ca/

Max Webster front man, and all around awesome guy (who happens to be Canadian!), Kim Mitchell joins me on this episode.  We go back and hear about how Kim went from Sarnia, Ontario to the Greek Islands with a guitar in-hand.  Gear talk does occur as well, but this episode is all about the love of music, guitar playing and crazy stories. Enjoy.    http://kimmitchell.ca/ https://twitter.com/TheKimMitchell https://www.facebook.com/kimmitchellband/
