SaVenger

saVenger joined Bill for episode 416 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show, live to tape, from their practice studio. They played some of their originals live for us! (This was the first time they played for anyone but themselves with this lineup!) They also taught me what a Portmanteau is, when I asked them where their name came from. Do you know what that is? We talked a little bit about their show at Gigaroo on July 7, 2018. It was at this point that they debuted their song, “Lemonade Grenade”. When we returned from their debut they told us the story behind the song and we discussed their first show which will be opening for Mona Lisa Smile on June 9 at JB’s Roadhouse in Deer Lakes, PA. The members of saVenger give us a little bit of a history lesson on the forming of the band and the Pittsburgh experience for the transplanted members (Who moves here from Florida?). Bill finally transitions into a host for a bit and asks them about which of their songs they’d want to survive a fire that destroys the rest of their catalog.  This was an early segue into their next live performance of their song, “Slashtronaut”. Johnny Horton came up again on the show, who knew this was going to happen a bunch of times… There’s more to come from saVenger in episode 418 so stick around!

Kaleido

Kaleido enters their first voyage on the Pennsylvania Rock Show by starting off by telling us about the meaning behind their band name. Bill then asks them about the most embarrassing moment that one of their band members had on stage (they couldn’t talk about themselves). This is where the interviews always get interesting. In a role reversal, the band asks Bill about his most embarrassing moment on the show (see the Bloody Seamen episode)… Bill has them talk about their own music collections to give you an idea of who influences the band. Kaleido give us a little bit of insight into the Detroit scene, but because they are a nationally touring band, they didn’t feel they could do the scene justice. We open up talking about the upcoming documentary on Kaleido, called 9 Mile (okay not really) and the bands that they have performed with. Find out what you would hear if you played a Kaleido album backwards. Find out which 1 song Kaleido thinks should survive the time and best represents them the best. You can also learn about who has most supported the band members over the years.

Six Bar Break – a lil bit o' Country

In segment 1 of this episode with Six Bar Break from Harrisburg, PA, we start things off by talking about the band’s influences and genre that they play. Bill even got in a few of his KISS references early on. The band introduced us a bit to the Harrisburg musics scene and talked about the best and worst parts of where they are located. If you listen closely, it sounds very in line with our scene. Segment 2 started out with us finding out how they came up with the name Six Bar Break and their most embarrassing moment on stage (that may have been the sound guys fault). Bill then asked about the building of the band over the years. Bill asked them to talk about some of their favorite unsigned bands from the Harrisburg scene, next. Bill followed up by asking them to create a superband from their scene with the stipulation that they were the manager and were not allowed to play in the band in any way.
