Did you ever wish you learned to play guitar or drums but never got around to it? Do you love live music but wish it was you on stage? Do you ever wonder what it would be like to sing in front of hundreds or thousands of people? Well, then, why not come hang out with Nick, Mike, and Jase as we sit back and discuss everything about being in bands all our lives!

High off the immeasurable success of our first podcast episode, we continue with that frantic momentum by discussing tuning our instruments to the universal frequency (A=432Hz, duh!), how Mother Gaia is actually a man, and how we grew into our various roles as a band. Jase does the whole podcast all boned up because he can't figure out how to turn off his hardpore corn. We discuss our first R4C gig, read some musicians' classified ads, argue about drum stick sizes (while Jase watches corn, of course), and learn that Mike is so rich that he can afford stairs, earning him the title, "Mr. Fancy-Pantsy-Richy-Stairsy-Boy." Also, what does it mean to 'boff?' Maybe you'll find out! (Hint: No, you won't find out).

On our first episode, we discuss Tom Petty, tuck jobs, Esteban as a legitimate musician, and possible juicy leaks to AOC, should one of us run for president. Is the drummer for Green Day better or Blink 182? We do, eventually - and sporadically - discuss being in a band. Hang out with us as we drink a couple good beers and make fun of each other!
We’ve spent our entire lives playing music and playing in bands and now comprise the Hudson Valley’s number 1 90’s & 00’s cover band, Run For Cover, playing all the songs we’ve grown up with and love. Whenever you see a band playing at a bar, club, festival, or private party, there’s so more that goes on behind the scenes to make that happen: decades of dedication and practice, tens of thousands of dollars spent on equipment, and thousands of hours of practice, not to mention negotiating with club owners and even organizers, dealing with inter-member conflict, and the struggles of being both artists and businessmen.
Join us as we discuss topics like ”Polygamy: How being in a band is really being married to several people!” and ”Imposter! That’s Not Your Real Name! - A guide to dealing with crazy stalker fans” and ”Why do I have to pay so much for a band to play at my wedding? Don’t they just get drunk and act stupid on stage?” (the answer to that last one is, ”Yes, but...”)
