I‘m Don. I am a huge music dork and I love talking to and about musicians and bands. Since 2009, I have had the honor of talking to some of my all-time favorite artists. I cover a lot of genres because, well, I love all kinds of music. Classic Metal, Thrash Metal, Black Metal, Classic Rock, Power Pop, Singer/songwriter, Jazz, and anything else that has made it‘s way into my life. My goal is to deliver interviews in a way that is not just entertaining for the listener but for the artist as well. I try to set a relaxed, ”living room” type of vibe and have a conversation and talk about anything. I like to let the artist steer the ship and that is always a treat for me and I find myself learning new things. I hope you will enjoy my podcast!

In 1988, a friend of mine showed up at my house with a cassette and said, "Dude, you need to hear this song." He put on the LA Guns debut album and played me the song "Electric Gypsy" and I loved it. I picked up the album and played it until the tape was almost clear. LA Guns has been at it for 40 years. With 15 studio albums, 10 live releases, and countless videos, LA Guns, in 2025, is surely not going anywhere anytime soon.
I had a chance to talk to LA Guns guitarist/songwriter/founding member Tracii Guns and I couldn't have had a better time. We talked about the new album, being dorks in school, and our mutual love and admiration for Poison guitarist CC DeVille. This was a lot of fun and I hope y'all enjoy it!!!
