Gerry Beckley of America + Mark Schulman of P!nk + Hannes Braun of Kissin' Dynamite | Ep. 465
Packed episode! Featuring Gerry Beckley of America, Mark Schulman formerly of P!nk, and Hannes Braun with Kissin' Dynamite. Plus, my review of half a Foo Fighters show.
First, Gerry Beckley, co-founder of the iconic band, America. For my actual radio job, I worked with Gerry to help promote his new self-titled album on different radio stations. Hear a brief behind-the-scenes clip of Gerry and I talking about Slash.
Then we're joined by pop/rock drummer, Mark Schulman (former P!nk/Billy Idol/Cher). Mark is also a motivational speaker and an author. We chat his new book, "The Attitude Equation: Rockstars In All Fields Share Their Secret Attitudes," the Matt Sorum chapter, and his brief stint with Velvet Revolver.
After that, German vocalist Hannes Braun returns to the podcast to talk Kissin’ Dynamite’s new offering, "Back With A Bang," status of rock today, and his classic interview with Slash.
And if that's not enough, I give you my review of half a Foo Fighters concert at a stormy Citifield in Queens, New York...
