Notice a little extra rasp in Dave’s voicebox? Blame it on the belting; this week your buds talk about safely getting back in our rehearsal and recording studios. Pro-tip: wireless units, while cheesy, are excellent for physical distancing.

If that doesn’t rev your engine, have you ever been curious on how to record a remote podcast? You’ll definitely learn some tips and tricks on making a pro-sounding episode even when everyone is in different rooms.

Finally, the dudes also get into the recent situation where Hank was able to salvage some gear headed for the trash; with a little elbow-grease and can-do attitude Hank rescued gear such as a vintage EHX pedal, Mackie mixer, Yamaha 4-track, Traynor amp, Gretsch floor tom, DW pedal, Jet City cab, and Basyn MIDI foot controller.

Also discussed: the honestly pretty neat Pickaso guitar bow, free Surge soft synth plugin, former guest Shelby Pollard’s new guitar cafe venture Black Bobbin, Hank writing for Reverb, Great White and The Chainsmokers having Bad Ideas, Black Sabbath, (Peter Green era) Fleetwood Mac and the story of a famous 59 Les Paul Burst, and the Lakland Geezer Butler bass.

Even if you’ve already checked it out in the past, please take a minute of your time and go back to saveourstages.com. Now’s the time.
