Ep. 91 : Bob Balch (Fu Manchu, Big Scenic Nowhere, Play This Riff)

My guest on this episode is Bob Balch of the mighty Fu Manchu. This band came on my radar so many years ago and I had the pleasure of opening for them and seeing them on a few occasions. This band, and Bob, always deliver the goods! Be sure to check out one or all of Bob's other projects which include his online teaching website PlayThisRiffs.com, his online lessons, and Big Scenic Nowhere.
