    SlapperCast Episode 291: Musicians Don't Get Paid Enough We recorded this one shortly after leaving Lake Havasu City where we played a string of three shows over the weekend, two of which were outdoor gigs. One of those was in EXTREME heat conditions, which leads us into a discussion of how musicians really don't get paid enough for the kind of work that we do. 00:01:49 — What's Lake Havasu City like? 00:03:40 — Playing gigs in 100+ degree weather 00:05:41 — Musicians don't get paid enough 00:06:52 — How to fix bad coffee on the road 00:08:10 — SnackerCast 00:09:48 — Traveling professions are hard 00:11:26 — More on playing gigs in extreme heat 00:14:14 — More on Havasu 00:19:24 — Similarities between Galveston & Lake Havasu City 00:21:43 — Wrap-up and THANK YOU Show dates Blaggards.com Facebook Bandsintown Follow us on social media YouTube Facebook Twitter Instagram Become a Patron Join Blaggards on Patreon for bonus podcast content, live tracks, rough mixes, and other exclusives.

    Sidetrackable

    This one was recorded in bits, mostly on August 16 as we drove to our gig at Gracie's in Bastrop, TX. Patrick drove separately that day, so he recorded a bit by himself earlier this evening to round this episode out. Topics include why we settled on our chosen instruments, and how our different personalities blend to form a whole band. Had some audio problems in the "van", so apologies for the choppy volume levels.
