As a live music enthusiast, I've had my fair share of concert escapades, but I pale in comparison to my latest podcast guest, Russell Kahn, the Chief Content Officer at News-O-Matic and a veteran of nearly a thousand shows. Imagine losing yourself in the throngs of a Phish concert or catching John Popper's harmonica mid-air; these are the moments we live for. In our conversation, Russ and I swap tales from our collective memories, recounting the rush of our first concerts and the bittersweet evolution of ticket prices that has since shaped the concert-going landscape.
Transport yourself to the heart of iconic venues like Madison Square Garden and the more intimate havens like Bowery Ballroom as we traverse the sacred spaces that have hosted the soundtracks of our lives. From the electrifying comeback performance of Phil Lesh to the unexpected letdown of a RatDog show, we relive the highs and lows that have defined our musical journeys. The anecdotes shared span the gamut from backstage shenanigans to the cherished impact of classic concert recordings and films that have become as much a part of us as the live experiences themselves.
Whether you're a seasoned ticket stub collector or new to the allure of live music, this episode is a heartfelt tribute to the power of performance and the eternal chase for the next unforgettable show.
