NAMM '24 Recap

Why do we call it a show and not just a concert? Because you should PUT ON A SHOW! Are you not entertained? Well sometimes you're not, but hopefully in this episode we'll learn a few ways to make sure the audience is and you might have some fun doing it. Stay tuned.

We went to NAMM so you didn't have to. And for real you didn't have to. But there was a Bubba Gumps real close by and parking in the Toy Story lot was convenient and cost effective. Tune in for the highlights and low lights.

We’ve probably all heard somewhere that public speaking is the #1 most common fear among all people. Well getting onstage and playing Cat Scratch Fever by Ted Nugent has gotta be up there somewhere too, especially if you’re not that prepared and your gear sucks or you don’t have any sick clothes or piercings. Anyway in this episode of Shredcast we’re gonna crack wise on some tactics that might help you overcome your fear of getting onstage regardless of what hardware or software you might be working with.

For all of those looking to live vicariously through me (a professional cover band man and sometimes teacher and/or touring sideman), please look no further. Join me in recanting this week's highlights and lowlights. Soaring with the eagles and slithering with the snakes, I have been everywhere in between. I am your friend.

Don't be alarmed guys but we have a SPECIAL CELEBRITY GUEST on this episode. And for real don't be scared, have a seat when I tell you this but its a real live WOMAN! And she was IN MY HOUSE! *SHRIEKS* Today I'm joined by Kassie White who I know really well but you guys might know from absolutely shredding the bass guitar with bands like Precious Kid, Nylon Waves, Better Twin, Lindsay Coulson and cover projects like the incredibly named "Black Eyed Pies." Be warned this is not educational at all but you may have fun listening to it, you may not, but in any case would love to hear your opinions on if you agree with us or if you think we are stupid and got it all wrong.
