Back in the early days of WUW we thought it important, in the interest of equal time, to give listeners a different perspective on some of the acts we didn't necessarily care for. We'd planned call this recurring segment Otherside, and have a special guest enthusiast let us know why we were wrong. We subsequently forgot all about it, but not before we managed to get a few Othersides on tape. So since we have no Regular Episode for you this week, we offer Brian's friend's mom Judith, Kid Rock Fan. Note: this interview was originally recorded in early May, 2016.
Reformed music writer J. Gabriel Boylan rode a train all the way from New York, New York to fill in for a touring B. Rian Langan. And it's a good thing, too, because Gabe actually has a history with today's subject: Jamiroquai. Rory has no history but whole a lot of issues with singer Jay Kay, and the other two also talk. Check out which crazy hat the guy wore here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cszCm5FrSM&t=1601s
Brian continues to entertain a grateful nation, and Rick had a speaking engagement, so Rory and Pat are joined by two special guests: NBA namedropper Andrew Jones and Dr. Dog's very own Toby Leaman. The subject of the episode is Buckcherry, charmless throwbacks to a simpler, sleazier time. Watch the set along with the podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgUfWr2zOtE
Brian is playing music on the road on tour with a band he's in, so the remaining usuals are joined by Brandon Beaver, successful guitarist for mewithoutyou and Buried Beds. Beaver (as he's known) has some fun showbiz tales to share, and Pat lets us in on the latest craze for jam band enthusiasts. Speaking of jam bands, today's set is by moe.
