Scene Mom Says: The Visa Win, the Ticketmaster Trap & the 95 Year Old Metalhead

Time: ~29 min. It's Episode 103- and I have some big personal news! After three years in Massachusetts I am going back to radio on WVAO 105.9 in Athol, starting Wednesday September 9th, 11am to noon with a replay at 8pm. It's a modified version of this show with a lot more music and they have an app so you can listen from anywhere! The podcast will continue. I'll be uploading the radio segments to the feed after each show. More details in the episode! This week a band called Boy Throb turned a visa nightmare into 1.3 million TikTok followers and eventually got their fourth member into the US. John Oliver is selling tickets to his comedy tour through Ticketmaster and rather than being hypocritical it actually proves exactly the point he was making in 2022. And William Shatner, 95 years old, fresh off beating Stage 4 melanoma, is playing his first ever metal show. With Rob Halford. And adoptable puppies on his rider. Plus music history, your marketing tip, and an all Arizona indie lineup! Let's get into it!
