Episode 82 - Adam Slack
from Straight To Video · host Adam Slack
We talk to Adam Slack - Guitarist for rock and roll band The Struts. Adam takes us back to his early days growing up and his love of pop music before diving down the rock and punk path after being blown away seeing his first Green Day video - something that would later come full circle when his heroes would acknowledge his songwriting in the most amazing way possible. During his journey we learn of the incredible but bumpy path The Struts would have to take on their road to success and along the way hear about record shop instores with McFly, last minute calls to support The Rolling Stones, Motley Crue's Tommy Lee trying his best to understand a Welsh accent but most of all we learn that talent, drive and the most bizarre twists of fate and chance can lead to much deserved success and a lot of fun.This episode is brought to you by our friends Dead Skull Coffee.https://deadskullcoffee.co.uk/discount/STVSpecial thanks to Affinity Photo - The hottest photo editing software on iPad, Mac & PChttps://affinity.serif.com/photoIntro Music by Johnny Monacohttps://www.johnnymonaco.com Incidental Music by Night Fires Please visit The 80s Video Shop Patreon Page to find out how you can help grow our very own 80s Video Shop. https://www.patreon.com/80sVideoShop
