The show notes are as follows:

On this show I talk about the virtual community of artists I have as internet friends. Check out Greg Renoff’s website www.vanhalenrising.com. He is a host on the ‘New Books in Popular Music’ podcast and is writing a book about the early years of Van Halen. He did a great interview on the ‘Rock and/or Roll Podcast’. My buddy and fellow Scottie owner Jake Lee from Hollywood is friends with the visual artist at www.DeanKarr.com who has photographed lots of musicians and directed tons of cool videos. Jake has a cool daughter named Hannah who you can hear at the very end of this episode. Check out my friend Marie at www.MyWildSurmise.wordpress.com. She writes about her life experiences through the prism of rock and roll. Check out my Australian author friend Simone Bailey who writes rock fiction at www.bingellsblog.blogspot.com. She has a new book called ‘Silver Studs and Sabre Teeth’. And last but not least, check out the ‘Rock and Roll Geek Show’ podcast. It is the oldest music podcast, hosted by Michael Butler.

On this show I talk about someone who got arrested and a funny story that reminded me of. Then I talk a long time about Bob Welch, who was in Fleetwood Mac, had a big solo album called ‘French Kiss’, and recently took his own life.

My horrible allergies delayed this episode, so I hope to do another one in a few days. Hope you enjoyed it!
