Customer Reviews
Funny and insightful
Very interesting look into musician touring - the joys, challenges and surprises. The episodes are conversational and the guys have great questions for each guest. Looking forward to season 2!
Great Chemistry
This podcast gives insight to life on the road in a way that makes you feel like you are sitting on the back of the bus on the way to the next gig. From The C and C music factory to Amsterdam, these two Chris's have super interesting guests that spill out tour stories without self aggrandizement. Standout episodes are Michelle Branch and hired gun, Ray Suen.
Great Guys, Great Podcast
Great questions, great chats, great stories. Baio's got one of the all-time great podcast laughs; CT's love of the Nets will inspire all walks of life.
