Nash explained that live music has become increasingly financially unsustainable - and she hopes monetising pictures of her behind will help bridge the gap.

As Kool & Tha Gang would say, "Celebrate Good Times, Come on!!!!" We are celebrating the release of 50 Episodes of The Here's The Deal Podcast, The Max Baker Jr. Story. We begin in June of 2004 w/ a mini gathering in OKC & an Infinite Records Showcase at Bricktown Live. Jeff Brownen finds an All Access Pass from a couple of Drowning Pool shows, one in Tulsa & one in OKC. The pass featured Moore, Oklahoma's own Jesse Jane. Seeing the picture of Jesse jogged Max's memory about being in a music video with Jesse Jane... Max played a preacher who got a lap dance from Jesse inside of a Church... The band was called "Shotgun Rebellion" & the song is called "Devil's Daughter" with the video shot & produced by Clark Deal at 3130 Studios & is available to stream on Youtube. Max's Mom was not impressed with his acting debut... HAHAHAHA!!!! One of the biggest bands in the world in 2023 is The Killers, who are selling out Arena's & Stadiums, Max discusses a show w/ The Killers live at Bricktown Live in 2004, a less than 500 capacity venue, where tickets were less than $10.... Every band has to start somewhere.... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Bob Dylan sing-a-long to start this Episode. We pick up in 2004 w/ The Crossroads Guitar Festival again then transition into a chain of events in Max's life, that would knock him back down to the bottom. Monday June 7th, 2004 is a big moment in this story. However, if it were the end of his Rock N Roll Adventures, this podcast wouldn't exist. This is an in depth conversation about the pitfalls of owning a record store selling new & used product.  "My old band, from Tulsa/Claremore played our very first Oklahoma City show for Max at Bricktown Live opening for Old School NYHC band Murphy's Law w/ OKC band Old Major on Wednesday June 9th, 2004. I didn't know until recording this episode what Max was going through in his personal life. My mind is completely blown right now!" - Jay Ramone Find out what happens when the headliner calls and says their going to be late & the sound guy says, "hey guys.... keep playing, we will let you know when they get here"....  One of the most legendary shows at Bricktown Live in OKC ever!!!!! Damageplan came to Bricktown w/ local bands Lock n Load & Element... The day of the show, Dimebag Darrell Abbott (Pantera/Damageplan/Hellyeah) decided he wanted to have a cookout, went across the street to Bass Pro Shop in Bricktown & bought a grill & all the supplies needed & had a cookout, right outside the frontdoor of the venue next to the bus... People driving or walking by were in total shock to see Dime grilling on the sidewalk!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We decided to release Episode 45 a little early.... So bare with us as we get out of order on this one. Episode 44 has not been skipped. It will still drop on Monday as originally intended. Part of getting older that no one likes to talk about or deal with is, losing those close to us along the way. Many of these people played a huge part of Max's life, concerts, event productions, building stages, driving artists all over this state & being part of the Adventures of Max Baker Jr. On February 22nd, 2023, we lost another legend, Ronnie Gene Simpson (63). Max met Ronnie at a very young age riding mini bikes, ripping through the southside as well as getting banned from a school talent show. They reconnected as young adults and began working shows & events together, leaving a trail of stories along the way. This episode is a tribute to several of our fallen brothers that helped create these stories.... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is not an April Fools joke.... We decided to release episode 41 on 4/1/23... We begin this episode with Back to Back All American Rejects shows at the Brady Theater in Tulsa & the Bricktown Events Center in Oklahoma City. The Tulsa show was filmed for a DVD release... After that we discuss another Tulsa Pimpadelic show.... Where are they now????? We'd love to hear from someone from the Pimpadelic camp to get them on this podcast! June 8th, 2003, KATTFEST featured Godsmack as the headliner... 20 years later, Godsmack headlines KATTFEST 2023! This podcast is as much about the Music & Entertainment Business as it is about the history & legendary concerts that have come through Oklahoma. We discuss what happens next for the next crop of Classic Rock artists... 1990's Grunge artists are now, technically Classic Rock artists. How do they continue to tour & remain relevant?!? We also discuss an Otherside show with Killswitch Engage that didn't happen, the band cancelled the day of the show due to travel issues. The fans were extremely upset about the show not happening & taking it out on Max. The attitudes being thrown at Max, made him think it was a good idea to put the Tour Managers cel phone number on the front door, encouraging the attendee's to call the TM & voice their displeasure.

Right off the bat, at the very begining of the Episode, Listen to Big Dad Ritch of the Texas Hippie Coalition do his impersonation of Max Baker Jr. & hear his take on "Here's The Deal"... We left off at Feb. 21st, 2003, a show with Malevolent Creation & Anal Blast at the Otherside in Tulsa. Max tells his adventures of distributing flyers for that show at Oral Roberts University... Who knew such judgement would be thrown at Max from the believers.... Henry Rollins comes to town doing a spoken word show. at the end of Feb. 2003 Max & Jeff discuss an ICP & 2 Live Crew show at the Diamond Ballroom. Throughout numerous episodes Max has discussed "issues... problems.... & show stoppers"... This ICP show had a show stopper situation that had to be corrected. When you rent venues to put on shows, occasionally you've got to fix those show stoppers to ensure the show happens.... THE SHOW MUST GO ON! Jeff & Max discuss the Mad Dogs & Englishmen reunited show April of 2003 with Joe Cocker & Leon Russell. We all agree, in one of the biggest rock n roll feud's of all time, we're all Team Leon! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
