In the non-stop cavalcade of Scott’s ‘90s pals, Blake Smith is among the closest. As guitarist and vocalist for Fig Dish (and later, Caviar and The Prairie Cartel) — Blake has been there with Scott through a lot of the ups and downs of the Chicago music scene for the last — oh, never mind how many years it’s been. Just listen. On this episode we talk about bad band names, playing the Metro for the first time, bad touring experiences (where Blake tells the story that makes Scott gag), working with Lou Giordano and Tom Lord-Alge, “Eminence Front” vs. “Athena”, Sponge-jacking, Zebra, and for some reason Gabe is dressed like a leprechaun pimp.
