Going Off Track

Max Huber of The Swingin' Utters talks about his days as a Marine, stationed in El Paso. Then we get into how he had to convince his bandmates to sign to Fat Wreck Chords, how his heroes in the UK Subs embraced him as a young punk rocker and what it was like to see the Swingin' Utters' peers Green Day and the Offspring become household names during the Bay area punk explosion.

Mötley Crüe's legendary bassist and founding member, along with his Sixx:A.M. bandmates DJ Ashba (Guns N' Roses) and James Michael discuss how the music industry has changed over the past few decades, how selfies have ruined concert-going, what happens when you google "blood in your urine" and how they stay healthy after so much hard living.

The Coheed And Cambria frontman talks about how he balances his band with his line of comics, children books and toys. We also talk about what you do when you find out your drummer can't do a European tour an hour before you're supposed to leave and how to deal with a bassist who’s just robbed Walgreens for drugs with a bombthreat.

The Pulitzer Prize winning novelist, screenwriter and playwright talks about his fantastic new music-driven novel Know Your Beholder and how he’s seen New York City's East Village transform over the past two decades. We also discuss loneliness, basketball and being a touring musician.
