Brought out the gang for todays episode! We’re joined by Chad Quair, Alex Cook (¥€$), Nasih, & FuegoREDD. All them have been in the podcast before and are close friends of mine. Over the past 6 months that we’ve all been connected, we’ve started working in music and formulating sort of a collective. Throughout the episode we joked around a lot and talked about the greatest rappers of all time, mischief as teenagers, & how Bam Adebayo may or may not be a Florida Assassin. Hope everyone enjoys the show!

On Todays episode we’re joined by a very close family friend and loved one Johnny Drugan! Johnny is a Professional Bassist endorsed/sponsored by ‘Lakland’ from bands like ‘Beneath Me’. You may also know him for his highly respected, restored drum and guitar shop ‘Drugan’s Drums & Guitars’ in Des Plaines, Illinois that he owns and operates with his brother Brian. Johnny is like an uncle to me and someone i’ve always looked up to for his ambition and passion with following his dreams, so it was cool to get a chance to pick his brain about how his life and passions came to be. He spoke about his beginnings in music and with my family, how his grandfather mentored Johnny Winter and his father was Winter’s first bassist and close friend, & about his love for vintage instruments and the shop’s environment! It was great conversation with an even greater guy, hope you all enjoy!  Johnny’s Links: https://www.drugansdrums.com https://m.facebook.com/drugansdrumsguitars https://reverb.com/shop/drugans-drums-and-guitars-1 https://www.instagram.com/drugansdrumsandguitars?igsh=OTlnbDkwYnUybDd2 https://youtube.com/@drugansdrumsandguitars?si=zkfx2L4Xa7NQXuRy https://www.ebay.com/str/sonicfonzsstore?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=kCMfK9MgR_i&sssrc=3418065&ssuid=b3ua1ryfqjq&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
