Episode 259: Dock Curious

SlapperCast Episode 259: "Dock Curious" PART ONE: Patrick and Chad continue our conversations about Elvis, Phil Lynott and Thin LIzzy. We imagine what might have been if Philo and Elvis had collaborated, and also talk about Lizzy guitarist Brian Robertson ("Robbo"), who was only 17 years old when Phil Lynott hired him as the first replacement for Eric Bell. PART TWO: Recorded in the van with Turbo on our way home from our gig at the Wounded Ostrich in Deep Ellum, Dallas. We had a GREAT time at the show, and thus the energy levels in this segment are high. We talk about our experience at the gig, and Turbo also brings us up to speed on his recent visit to Costa Mesa for a special SJC Custom Drums event. Also we do a few "shine-a-lights" on songs we've been digging on recently, which had been missing from the last few episodes. 00:00:00 — Intro 00:00:57 — Elvis’s comic book influences 00:01:46 — More on Elvis 00:10:43 — What if Phil Lynott and Elvis collaborated? 00:16:10 — Mötley Crüe using backing tracks live 00:19:56 — Brian Robertson (Thin Lizzy guitarist) 00:22:06 — Our love of Thin Lizzy 00:25:54 — Patrick's Shine-a-light 00:26:38 — Wounded Ostrich gig recap 00:33:17 — Turbo's SJC Event recap 00:44:09 — Upcoming shows 00:44:52 — Shine-a-lights 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.
