#239 - Extreme Tales From the Concert | Bob Heil & Brit Turner | Music’s Cancel Callus

Greg found himself home in L.A. most of last week and decided to catch Extreme at The Bellwether. Living Colour opened the show. Tom Morello was in the crowd watching his childhood hero, Nuno Bettencourt. Mr. Bettencourt’s remains unaffected by time. It’s Tales From The Concert!Song: Extreme - “Get the Funk Out”Jay brings us two important remembrances. American sound and radio engineer Bill Heil, founder of Heil Sound, passed last week at the age of 83. Known for creating/inventing the modern rock sound system, Heil worked with legendary acts like The Grateful Dead & The Who, and invented the "Talk Box.” We also lost Brit Turner, drummer for Blackberry Smoke, last week at the age of 57. The Southern Country Rock band, founded in 2000, successfully combines blues, rock, and country with a jam-band worth ethic, amassing many loyal fans, including Jay.Songs:Zack Oakley - “Hypnagogic Shift“Blackberry Smoke - “Waiting for Thunder“Last week, Nick mentioned the success of Ye’s latest collaborative album with Ty Dolla $ign and then read a NY Times piece this week about the success of disgraced artists. The piece thoughtfully discussed the pushback on pop-culture’s cancellations and, to a lesser but present extent, the reality that it’s always been this way. It’s a rare dip into Sociology, but that’s where we’re end things this week!Song: Plantoid - “Wander/Wonder“
