There's No Spontaneous Joy in America | Ep. 2

Drew and KB are back for episode 2 of Beers on the Table, working through a few microphone malfunctions and an even bigger question: has America forgotten how to have spontaneous joy?After a night at Summerfest, the guys wonder why people now sit, scroll, and wait for the “right” act instead of simply wandering in, hearing something great, dancing on a table, and letting the night happen. They also revisit the pre-phone glory days of designated meet-up spots, camping out all day for a prime concert view, and experiencing a festival without documenting every damn second of it.Plus: the apparent disappearance of live bass players; backing tracks, click tracks, and whether rock and roll needs mistakes; their most memorable Summerfest shows featuring Tina Turner, Tom Petty, Pearl Jam, Jason Isbell, Roy Orbison, the Beach Boys, Eric Clapton, and more; Waze’s deeply questionable “still there/gone” construction reporting; World Cup and Brewers talk; golf’s squeezed major-championship schedule; and another Summerfest scouting report.They also point you toward Deer Tick, Father John Misty, the Family Stone, Hot Mulligan, Trapper Schoepp, Hailstorm—and the spectacle of David Lee Roth attempting to sing in public.
