Customer Reviews
True ROCK & ROLLER
Steev is an all out GREAT GUY! He has been there, done that and has a million great stories to tell. Anything you want to know about music, he’s got it. If you ever get the pleasure to speak to him you can go for hours without feeling anytime pass.
I knew him when!
Steev has been a constant source inside knowledge of the Boston (and beyond) Indy rock scene and I’ve been glad to know of him since the jitty pre Y2K era of 1999.
All around cool guy who likes cats and pro wrestling. The pod is worth a listen - just please get The Chelsea Curve on while I’m still able to hear it.
Great podcast
Steve does a really great job and clearly does his homework with all his guests !! The conversation is easy flowing and he has some true icons on his podcast, Highly recommended !!
