REO Speedwagon: Back in the Early Days

from The UCR Podcast

On the eve of an REO Speedwagon concert retrospective event featuring special guests and former members, Alan Gratzer, Neal Doughty and Bruce Hall join Matt to talk about what fans can expect at the State Farm Center in their hometown of Champaign, Illinois, Saturday, June 14. It's a conversation that comes fully loaded with a lot of tales about the early days and the fame that eventually followed, plus encounters with Joe Walsh, the late Sly Stone -- and even some hotel-related mischief and mayhem. It was a wild ride inside the Speedwagon and thankfully, we pressed record on the trip! Find ticket information at statefarmcenter.com.
