Featuring music from: Royal Honey, Steve Hawk, Slam Band & Sam, Dan Stonerook, The Whelming Waters, The Bail Jumpers Segment 1 with Slam Band & Sam Where did the band name come from and who is Sam?!? If Adam was going to run for president and the rest of you are going to end up in his cabinet, what is his slogan going to be? Why would I find Slam Band & Sam in a social studies book? We then talk about the Vault Recording Studio and their label. Who is your Dave Grohl? You get 1 hour to sit on a bench and talk to any musician in the world, but only ask 1 question… If you ended up in a crossroads with the devil and he offered you whatever you wanted, what would you sell your soul for? Tell me a little bit about Jimi Was… Segment 2 with Slam Band & Sam Let’s say you get to headline a tour, what other bands would you want on the bill with you? What city would you start the tour in, and at what venue? What is the soundtrack that we listen to while traveling between cities on your tour? What is coming up for Slam Band & Sam? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGC4CRWjYC4

Patrick Varine of Charlie Hustle and the Grifters, Charlie Hustle and the Pickers, and Covered in Grass joined Bill for episode 363 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show. Pat gave us an explanation of the bands’ names and how the band was formed. He gave us some insight into how the writing process works for the band. Patrick, explains the background of the band and what each member brings to the melting pot that is the band. One of the songs that they play is Riders on the Storm, which immediately brings to Bill’s mind The Blues Brothers 2000. He points out that he felt that Charlie Hustle and the Grifters could have starred in that movie. It was at this point that the band Covered in Grass comes into the conversation. Pat seems to be a student of both music and the internet, you’ll have to listen to understand why we believe this. Subscribe: iTunes | MixCloud | Android | Email | Google Play | TuneIn | RSS | More He talks about how a lot of Pat’s original songs have New Orleans references in them, he also mentions that they usually have something to do with relationships. Sometimes the songs come from a lyric book that he keeps. Pat mentions that the Calliope Songwriters Circle was very helpful in his progression as a song writer. They meet at the Bloomfield Tavern in Bloomfield.
