Fourth Time's A Charm For This Labor Of Love - DVI Podcast 071 - The Eisenhowers' Ray Weir

This particular episode of the DVIP has become a labor of love..."labor" being the operative term. It literally took four tries to get this interview recorded. I think it was well worth the effort.

My guest this week is Ray Weir, from the band The Eisenhowers, and Gum. We talk about The Eisenhowers' new CD Film Your Own Atrocities. We play some tracks from the album, as well as a few older ones too.

"Kid Rock"... Literally: An Interview With Light Of Doom, DVI Podcast 070

My guests this week are the members of Light Of Doom, from Escondido, California (suburb of San Diego). They came in fourth place on The Next Great American Band, on Fox TV network this fall. These guys are amazing! Rarely can you find individual 12 and 13 year olds who can play their instruments so well, let alone sound so good as a group. I am greatly looking forward to seeing and hearing their development over the coming years.

I can't wait for them to come to Vegas! Or maybe I can make it back east for a show.

California Bluegrass - Dvi Podcast 068 - Interview with Cliff Wagner And The Old Number 7

I'm really starting to enjoy this relationship I'm building with Fox. I like the show The Next Great American Band and all, but I'm always left unsatisfied. I never get to see a band for more than a few seconds during interview footage, and only for a minute and a half while they're on stage. Granted, they have a lot of ground to cover in a very short amount of time, so I'm happy to be able to talk to these bands as long as we want here on the podcast.

My guests this week are members of Cliff Wagner and the Old Number 7. I was very surprised they were voted off the show so soon. I thought they definitely had the talent and the chops to make it much further than they actually did. I think their rendition of "Poison Ivy" was great. I really liked the way they turned Billy Joel's "You May Be Right" into something of their own.

Cliff, Devitt, and Craig join me for episode 068. You can download the show's MP3 FILE here. (right click and "save as...")

And finally, I don't go much for special shows, like holiday specials, or year-end retrospectives, so I won't bore you with one of those. I do want to say to everyone though: Have a merry Christmas, or whatever holiday you celebrate. Also, have a happy and prosperous New Year.
