Episode Description

Episode 5. From Afar featuring Gary Cherone Superfan Alyssa, creator and curator of the Extreme Fan Page ExtremeTakeUsAlive on Twitter. Join Scotzo, Wolfie and Chaz as they take Alyssa along on their journey through this next track off Van Halen III.

Alyssa's passion for Gary's artistry, and her Extreme knowledge and appreciation of Van Halen take the guys to a place no one expected Chaz to end up. Is that a good thing or bad? We get a lot of inside scoop on Gary's side projects, like his Who cover band, and his work with his brother, and what it's like to be in the same room with him and his energy. Alyssa's adoration of Gary is endearing, and it soften's some of the sharper edges in what's always a "trash Gary" party! (Apologies to no one.) And this is the stage in the show's evolution where we think people may be listening, so we invoke our right to make statements and issue our new call "C'mon Wolfie!" and we're not talkin' our Wolfie.

As always, the most important constituent - what did Wolfie think of the track and the Van Halen III Redux version?

Remember, Van Halen III Redux is the work of ⁠⁠⁠⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Tom Petty Project⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠⁠⁠⁠ podcast host Kevin Brown and producer Scott D. Monroe, our own Scotzo. Listen to their ⁠⁠⁠⁠Redux version of VHIII⁠⁠⁠ ⁠that's lighter, leaner, and in some circles a means to salvaging the disc a producer in a different circumstance might have produced. Ahem.
