Cult rock 'n' roll guitar slinger Kid Congo Powers joins me on Life In The Stocks this week for Episode 326 of the podcast.


We discuss his upbringing as a Mexican American in East LA in the 1970s, playing in The Gun Club and the genius of Jeffrey Lee Pierce, creativity, experimentation, addiction & recovery, the inspiration and lasting legacy of Poison Ivy and The Cramps, the band's recent renaissance period after Goo Goo Muck appeared on Tim Burton's TV show Wednesday, energy, escapist entertainment and the darker side of rock n roll, and so much more.


You can also catch Kid giving guided tours at the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas this weekend.


Tickets can be bought here: https://www.thepunkrockmuseum.com/guided-tour-tickets
