Get ready to rock with us at Piper's Pub in Pompano Beach, Florida, as we bring you the electrifying atmosphere of a live rock show with Wicked! Join me, your host, The Pipeman, for an exhilarating chat with Dan from Wicked, who shares the anticipation of leaving behind the dreary New York weather for their North American tour alongside metal legends Raven. Listen in as we revel in the magic of intimate club performances, where the energy crackles and fans get up close and personal with the music they adore. Plus, we've got a quirky twist for you - Wicked's drummer, Gunner, has a familial tie to Raven that promises some hilarious on-tour pranks. This conversation is a tribute to the live music scene, the kind that forges lifelong memories and connections.
In our latest chat, we also pay homage to the cherished tradition of collecting physical albums and the irreplaceable joy they bring - like finding hidden gems tucked away in the sleeve of a Kiss "Love Gun" album. We encourage you to rediscover the delight of holding your favorite music in your hands and to keep the spirit of live shows alive by supporting artists on tour. As we gear up for the tour with Raven, don't miss out on the community vibe that only a live concert can offer.
