Episode Description

There will come a time when you will be needed, You will be called upon to Perform with very little notice and sometimes with very little expectation.

You should always have something prepared to perform at the last minute. Always have something ready “just-in-case.” This may happen because the promotor or booking agent knows you have the talent, you have proven yourself to be resourceful. Sometimes you will get that last minute call out of their desperation to fill a slot. While this can be disheartening, flip the mindset. This is your time to shine. This is your opportunity to blow the roof off that place. This is the moment to make them wonder why they never booked you before. Be ready for it.

I’ve been a lifelong tunehead and fan of many genres with a particular passion for live shows, big and small. And while I’ll be discussing the music played, the podcast won’t simply be a critique of the performance.People recall a gig’s small moments that can end up defining the event in one’s mental hard drive sometimes more than the tunes: what happened before and after; things seen and heard; technical malfunctions, musicians passing out on stage, etc. Therefore, the podcast is about the “concert-going experience” rather than simply bein Ward and Parker - The Podcast Ward and Parker Ward and Parker The Podcast is a chat show with Cliff Ward and John Parker; acoustic, folk, pop duo from the UK.
