    The Ghosts of the Music Stands

    SlapperCast Episode 378: "The Ghosts of the Music Stands" This week we talk about Turbo’s upcoming surgery, his subsequent indeterminately long break from playing with the band, and the weird feeling of playing with fill-in drummers. We do some shop talk (mostly about live sound engineers), and then, as we often do, we start talking about food.

    Sevenworth

    SlapperCast Episode 377: "Sevenworth" This one was recorded in several bits: two segments recorded immediately after our show at the Cascade Celtic Festival in Leavenworth, Washington (which includes us bickering about whether or not Safeway was open), and the main episode segment recorded the next morning as we drove to Portland, Oregon. We talk about the amazing time we had at the festival, the wonderful reception we got, and also a bit about music gear we've coveted, and the favorite gear we've ever owned.
