470: Train’s Pat Monahan on 25 Years of Drops of Jupiter, New Album Mad Dog in the Fog and Touring with His Son
Watch the video: https://lifeminute.tv/music/video/trains-pat-monahan-25-years-drops-jupiter-new-album-mad-dog-fog-and-touring-his-sonTwenty-five years after Drops of Jupiter became one of Train’s defining albums, Pat Monahan is celebrating the past while keeping his eyes firmly on what’s next.The multi-GRAMMY Award-winning band is currently on its Drops of Jupiter: 25 Years in the Atmosphere Tour with Barenaked Ladies and Matt Nathanson, ahead of the August 28 release of Train’s 12th studio album, Mad Dog in the Fog.And this time, Monahan has a special tourmate. “My 14-year-old son is with me, so he's performing every night and going viral on the internet,” Monahan told LifeMinute's editor-in-chief Joann Butler during the Joann Butler in Studio With... interview. Of all the songs he has written, Monahan still considers “Drops of Jupiter” the most significant. “Writing that about my mom… for it to connect with people like it has over the years, pretty cool,” he said.The 2001 hit has since earned RIAA Diamond status and surpassed two billion Spotify streams. Train’s new album, Mad Dog in the Fog, brings Monahan back to the band’s beginnings. Named after a San Francisco bar where Train played for free in its early days, the record traces what he describes as his journey “from Pennsylvania to San Francisco.”His road to Train almost sounds like a movie itself. While Monahan was playing in a cover band in Erie, Pennsylvania, members of Cher’s touring band happened to catch his set. Cher guitarist David Shelley pulled him aside afterward and told him, “You need to move to LA because you've got the thing.” It was the push Monahan needed to take a chance on music — a decision that would ultimately lead him to Train. Monahan also opens up about the deeply personal story behind new song “Pennsylvania Turnpike,” finding his own voice as a songwriter, his upcoming musical Begin Again, and why he believes music can heal, guide and bring people back. This is LifeMinute with Train's Pat Monahan.

I don't know, man. It's crazy. I never saw this coming,” Sixx told us on the most recent episode of Joann Butler In Studio With...The band is celebrating the milestone with The Return of the Carnival of Sins Tour, marking the 20th anniversary of Carnival of Sins with a 33-date North American summer tour. The shows feature a refreshed setlist, including songs the band hasn’t performed live in decades, while continuing to deliver the hits that made Mötley Crüe a rock powerhouse.Sixx says some of those songs have taken on a meaning beyond what he originally wrote. Discussing “Kickstart My Heart,” which was inspired by his heroin overdose and recovery, Sixx explains that the song’s impact has grown beyond its original story. “The songs have outgrown the lyrics,” he says, noting that fans often experience the song through its energy and emotion rather than just its lyrical meaning.That connection with fans remains at the center of Mötley Crüe’s journey, whether through live performances or special releases like Crücial Crüe: The Studio Albums 1981–1989, a box set celebrating the band’s early catalog.After more than four decades in music, Sixx says creativity continues to drive him. For Mötley Crüe, the ability to evolve while staying connected to generations of fans is what keeps the music alive. “To be creative and stay creative—not just in music but in other things that I do—is very exciting,” he says. “That’s why I’m on this planet.”For Sixx, the journey continues to be about staying open to new ideas and finding new ways to create.For tour dates and ticket info check out motley.com/tour.

466: Stewart Copeland Enjoying Life and Music on His Own Terms
Watch the video: https://lifeminute.tv/music/video/stewart-copeland-enjoying-life-and-music-his-own-termsWhen you ask Stewart Copeland about his drumming, he says he likes to “bang stuff.” Well his art of “banging stuff” has made him one of the most important and influential drummers and artists of all time.He’s a composer, an innovator, and a musical force who helped redefine what a rock drummer could do — and on this episode of Joann Butler In Studio With…, we sat down with the seven-time Grammy winner to talk about all of it.Copeland walks us through how The Police came together, what first drew him to Sting, why he was convinced the band had to stay a three-piece, and how those early instincts shaped one of rock’s most iconic groups. He also gets candid about where he is now, telling us he considers himself “kind of retired from show business” — still making music, still performing, but only for the projects that genuinely excite him.Life beyond The Police: The “Have I Said Too Much” tourStepping back from the traditional grind of the industry hasn’t stopped Copeland from connecting with audiences — it’s just changed the format. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee is bringing his first North American spoken-word tour, “Have I Said Too Much – The Police, Hollywood, and Other Adventures,” to cities across the country. Expect personal stories, photos, video, and live audience Q&A — a genuine behind-the-scenes look at a career that spans from the formation of The Police to his adventures well beyond music.How Stewart Copeland formed The PoliceOne of our favorite moments in the conversation is Copeland’s own account of how The Police came to be. We asked him what caught his attention about Sting, why he pushed for a three-piece lineup, and how guitarist Andy Summers completed the chemistry that defined the band’s sound. His answer is part strategy, part instinct — a mix of practical thinking and the musical influences that shaped one of rock’s greatest bands.The Police album that means the most to himWhen we asked Copeland which Police record means the most to him, he didn’t hesitate: Reggatta de Blanc. He tells us why that era marked a creative high point for the band, and why the album still holds a special place for him decades later.A childhood in the Middle East that shaped his musicCopeland’s path into music started early — and unusually. Raised in the Middle East by a father who worked for the CIA and moonlighted as a musician, he tells us music was simply part of the air he breathed growing up. He remembers just wanting to “bang stuff” as a kid, and shares the surprising story of his first drum teacher — an experience that left a permanent mark on his playing.From Neil Peart and Taylor Hawkins to Buddy Rich: Stories from a legendary careerWe couldn’t resist asking about the drummers who shaped him and the ones he’s shaped in turn. Copeland shares memories of jamming with Neil Peart and Taylor Hawkins, and tells us one of his proudest career stories: the time jazz legend Buddy Rich asked him for an autograph. He also reveals the origin of his signature technique — the “orthodox grip” he still uses today, taught to him by his first drum teacher, a drummer from an Armenian strip club in Beirut.The legacy of one of rock’s most innovative drummers Across the whole conversation, Copeland brings the humor, honesty, and hard-won wisdom of a decades-long career — giving us an inside look at the music, friendships, and choices that built his legacy.
