Nox Emesis PARS517

On episode 517 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show: Sachem, Sarah, Jake, & Anthony from the band Nox Emesis joined Bill to introduce themselves to the scene. They formed just before the stay-at-home orders and haven’t had a chance to play out yet. Segment 1 with Nox Emesis Where did the band name, Nox Emesis, come from? What cartoon would you be in as a band, and which character would play each of you? If you could sit on a bench for 1 hour with anyone from music history, who would you sit next to and what would be the only question you get to ask them? You get to headline and internationally touring band, what 2 local bands would you take with you as openers? Mark Gibson president of the non-profit venue, Club Radioactive asked, “How do we get young kids into live music?” We did an individual musician introduction at this point of the show. Christina of The Shadow Event asked, “How many songs do you have as a band?” What would your dream, first show be? Segment 2 with Sachem, Sarah, Jake, & Anthony What would our traveling road tunes be, if I was tagging along on a tour with you? If you were going to manage a band of hand picked musicians from the Pittsburgh scene, who would be in your band? If you were in the movie, Rockstar, what band would you join? Where can people find you online? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q515aBARXxY

Dead Men visit the PA Rock Show

The members of Dead Men from East Stroudsburg, PA join Bill on the show for Episode 396. We began the show by discussing their music style/genres. Rich, Levi, and Kevin give us a bit of an inside look into how the band formed, the band name, and their writing process during the first segment. Dead Men told us about their song Damned, Doomed, & Cursed. Segment 2: We started out learning about Dead Men through asking about the person that supported each of them the most as a musician (we get to learn about Levi’s musical family), what bands and albums are in their music collections, what band would they like to open for and at what venue, what their favorite venue is… we played a short round of “Either or”. We then move onto finding out about their embarrassing stage moments. The band wants you to grab a free copy of the ep at:  https://deadmenband.bandcamp.com/.  We ended things with a few shout outs to www.aproradio.com, www.weeklyrockblog.com, and www.977rocks.com.
