Episode #84 Neil Giraldo / 80s Cruise 2025

On episode #84 of “Sound Up!,” Mark Goodman and Alan Light welcome Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Neil Giraldo to talk about his spirits company Three Chord Bourbon, upcoming tour dates with Pat Benatar, and much more. Mark recaps his time hosting last week’s ‘80s Cruise, which offered both musical highlights and genuine tragedy. Alan reviews the Love Rocks NYC benefit concert, which featured performances from the likes of Alicia Keys, Beck, and Cher. We give our thoughts on Lady Gaga’s new album, “Mayhem,” and her appearance as host and musical guest on “Saturday Night Live,” and we cover the passing of Tony! Toni! Tone! founding member D’Wayne Wiggins. We share Pod Squadders’ memories of their oldest ticket stubs and get a series of concert reviews from a listener in Houston. Our New Music picks this week include songs from I’m With Her, Dolly Parton, Chloe Qisha, Jonah Kagen, and Ingrid Andress. We want to make you part of the conversation.  Leave us your comments via text or audio message at [email protected] https://www.instagram.com/sounduppod/https://twitter.com/sounduppod     Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
