    #6 of Season 2 (The end or no, who knows) FEATURING Tracy Weaver as she interviews Nate Weaver of Vivid Imagination, Murder Ranks, Otion and more; favorite venues, what's next in season 3...

    Tracy Weaver takes on the role of host and goes in depth with the various bands Nate has kept time with.. The ups and downs, starts and finishes, but all the good times and times that could have been better. Though, in the end it all worked out. Tracy reflects on the bands I have been fortunate to play with, some of the crazy stories and a few of the tough times too. Tracy came up with this idea and I thought it would be fun. I don't talk to all the folks I have played with over the years, but I have stayed in touch with some. I am grateful for all those days and hope for more in the future.
