His "Bro," of course!Out of that tight-knit musical (ahem) circle, "Bro" and Gary helped form ALLIANCE in the ’90s with singer/bassist Robert Berry and keyboardist Allan Fitzgerald. In this episode, they join the Bo-Hosts to chat about their killer new album on Frontiers Music, Before Our Eyes.They also reminisce about recording VOA (and whether live footage exists!), the possible whereabouts of their "55" jumpsuits, dig into their recording process, speculate on a VOA band reunion in Cabo, and face off in a round of RedRocker Rapid Fire.This episode took some serious calendar-juggling to make happen—so crank it up LOUD and enjoy!For more on ALLIANCE:https://www.frontiers.it/artist/2216https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmkNfnqrJCgFor more on David "Bro"Lauser:https://www.davidlauser.com/index.htmlFor more on Gary Pihl:https://garypihl.com/"What is understood...NEED be discussed"Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100085582159917Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebogusotisshow/?hl=enX:https://x.com/BogusOtisShowYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@TheBogusOtisShowTik Tok:https://www.tiktok.com/@thebogusotisshowConnect with the Bo-Hosts:[email protected]
