This episode is fantastic, featuring two guests that span music, technology and food. Mark Rose made a name for himself in Spitalfield, before launching a successful solo career. We talk about his music, but focus on his Downwrite platform, which enables consumers to commission custom songs from performers large and small. Want Richard Patrick of Filter to write a song for your daughter's Bat Mitzvah? Go to Downwrite. Want Bob Nanna of Braid/Hey Mercedes to write a song for your indie film? Go to Downwrite. I love the concept, and we go deep into it. Kyle Schrage is the “beard” of “Beard and Belly,” located at 6157 N. Broadway. He walks us through the menu (everything made in-house) and shares items like the pastrami Reuben (OMG), Spicy Pickled Eggs and the Short Rib poutine. We finish with cream pies, as you do. Lots of great conversation between the three of us coming from Edgewater at the beginning of a long weekend for a lot of us. Hope you enjoy listening! Now is the time to go solar!

What does it look like to record an album, let it rest for 2 decades, then revive it and release it? Matt will tell you.

ON LOCATION! We sipped on local brews and talked about tour stories and new music, and of course: 80's TV and Film. Yes indeed, at The Fat Lab 2.0 studio, where Danny is at the helm. Danny was a member of my band Dogwood -- he was the guitarist on our album SEISMIC, and he toured with us all the way til the end. Before that, he was in LOGOS with his brother (Andrew, Dogwood's touring drummer after Russ) and their cousins. Now, he is a Sound Engineer and a Studio Wizard, recording instruments and vocals to perfection in his own spot. He has also been writing songs with me in Saint Didacus, and we have a few more in the works right now... stay tuned for those! _____________________________________________________ Danny's music: saintdidacus.bandcamp.com and/or SEISMIC by Dogwood (here is a "good" review of the album) and of course, LOGOS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqRSjnQa1gk Danny online: instagram.com/da.knee.mon.toy.uh and instagram.com/thee.fat.lab (just opened that account!) _____________________________________________________ THANKS FOR LISTENING AS ALWAYS -- LOVE CHEF JOSH (YOSH) Follow the show on instagram.com/thefamilycast and for more exclusive content check patreon.com/familycast and linktr.ee/familycast for all the links!!

How did you get into sales?DT:Desperation.  Sold books door to door to work my way through college. Went to Colgate university in 1976 and didn’t have a lot of money, couldn’t go back sophomore year unless he made $5K. Southwestern Corporation, Nashville, TN. As long as I can make $5 grand, I’m in! Incredible sales experience.  COMMISSION ONLY! Sent to Bellingham, WA.  95% of people quit. I couldn’t quit because I didn’t have enough money to get back home.  I had to consult with bank Presidents to gas station attendants and it was a fantastic introduction to the sales process. We read Tommy Hopkins and learned consultative selling. I was a slow percolator and it took me a while to get it.  I was out in the field 2 weeks and I was scared, would fumble through stuff and didn’t have high confidence. A lady took me in, gave me a cookie as I stumbled through my sales pitch and said SHE WOULD BUY! Took the $25 and ran to McDonald’s to eat my first meal in a week!Door to door selling carrying his Dictionaries in a rolling case. Building rapport, at the time had to “wait for my husband to come home” DAN → that’s exactly what your neighbor said….Ms Joyce said the same thing, but realized she could spend the $$ because it’s her kids education → now his customers were ready to buy showing proof of sales from their neighbors. Last month using that strategy closed 40% of people after everyone knew him and got a deposit from most people! First year Individual Contributor $5,0002nd year 9 guys recruited, got a cut from that , 7 quit, 2 stayed and made $8 grand!Junior year went to Vegas playing pokerGraduated college in 1980  from Colgate University Played bass in heavy metal rock and roll band Being a bass player is a great foundation for being a great business person1982 tired of making $25/week - 14 computer stores in BostonWalked in to Computer Store, Roger Lund gave him a shot and Dan became #1 sales person in 3 monthsRoger left for Startup, wanted to take Dan with him and would pay dan $1,500/year more.

Talk to accountants and they WOULD CRY seeing how easy it made their life!The way you sold computers is you would put a sign out and people would come byMarried 31 YEARS! Dan all energy and enthusiasm, his wife Amy is the smart one and she was a great sellerAfter 9 years at Business Land. Started his own company as CEO scaled to $30 Million as a professional services locationBought training company that went Bankrupt, was AWESOME (learning)! Had to tell employees and their locations and tell people he had no money.  Learned humility at 40 and to always have a contingency plan4th startup, Groove Networks, bought out by Microsoft, his VP of Sales was Brian HalliganGot a call when Brian & Dharmesh wanted to start HubSpot because he had great energy and was the best salesperson they met!Mark Roberge - Sales Acceleration Formula - VP of Sales at HubSpotDidn’t miss our number for the first 27 months at HubSpot and everything I knew about selling and business changed completely after I joined HubSpot!15:00“I am by far the luckiest guy in the world, I’ve had dinner with Bob Marley,  taught Steve Tyler how to fire his manager met Muhammed Ali,  and met with  president’s.

Listeners all over the world know Bob Nanna as the voice of Braid (one of the most influential emo bands of all time), as well as celebrated projects like Hey Mercedes and The City On Film. Long before he was making a name for himself with those bands, Nanna was a drummer who was keeping time for lesser-known suburban Chicago outfits like Slaphappy and Friction. Recently, My First Band host Tyler Maas spoke to Nanna about the unconventional recording process for his new solo album, Celebration States, and how he's both staying creative and keeping busy in isolation. Over the course of the roughly 80-minute conversation, the emo icon also talked about his pre-Braid projects, the highs and lows of Braid and Hey Mercedes, the wealth of other musical endeavors that came after those seminal bands, and the process of building a network of musicians for his Downwrite custom song business. Along the way, Maas also accidentally referred to Michael Cassady as "Neil Cassady" and Nanna talked about playing a recent socially distant backyard show to an audience of seven people. My First Band is sponsored by Mystery Room Mastering and Lakefront Brewery. The show is edited by Jared Blohm. You can listen to My First Band on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify and wherever else you get podcasts. Music used in this show comes courtesy of Devils Teeth ("The Junction Street Eight Tigers"), Friction ("Squelch") and Bob Nanna ("Mr. Albatross").

In episode 5, the whole gang stops by to talk about our favorite venues we've ever played, what we should reinvest the border wall money into, and whether or not my wife pooped on the floor. We then get the chance to talk to Bob Nanna from Braid and Hey Mercedes about his most embarrassing childhood moment, his favorite band that he toured with, and his involvement with Downwrite.

This episode features former lead singer of Spitalfield and cofounder of Downwrite.com, Mark Rose.

Braid. Hey Mercedes. Two of Trav's favorite bands. The cool thing is you can talk to one Bob Nanna and cover both. First we have a few records to talk about. Then Stephen tells one of those stories that reminds you that it could be embarrassing to go "commando". Bob Nanna tells us about the space between the end of Braid and the beginning of Hey Mercedes and how it went down in Hawaii. Hear about how Hey Mercedes met their tour manager Chris on the Vagrant tour. Bob Nanna was nice enough to open up about a cancer scare, yet how he somehow found the peace to not let it be a scare...plus he got a hat out of it so that's cool. Cancer sucks. We are all getting older every day and there comes a time where we have to make smarter decisions about our health. Drink more water, folks. He reminds us that when you go see a band they didn't just come from their tour bus fully rested...sometimes they didn't even sleep the night before. Remember that. Bob is involved in something pretty special called Downwrite, where you can hire a songwriter to write a customized song just for you. It's a really neat, intimate approach and I recommend the site. Just scroll around and see who's involved. Bob is covering his top 100 songs (yeah...) all the way up to his favorite song "Chesterfield King" by Jawbreaker. Thanks for listening. We love you. Take care. Bye-bye.

Recorded at GMAN in Wrigleyville, Mark Rose sit's down with us to talk about his experience being in the band Spitalfield along with his new solo music and www.Downwrite.com. Visit www.markrosemusic.com

This week, Bob Nanna of Braid is on the show talking about The Lemonheads' "It's a Shame About Ray". Bob takes us back to his high school days, traveling overseas with this album at his side, and talks about how this album continues to be a part of his life to this day. We also talk about Downwrite, which is an awesome way for people to get customized songs written by some of their favorite artists.

Welcome to Episode 007, featuring the ever-so-talented William Beckett. You might know Mr. Beckett from his time spent fronting Chicago-based band The Academy Is... from 2003 to 2011, but these days, he's a hard-touring solo artist. His debut full-length album, Genuine & Counterfeit, was released last year on Equal Vision Records. I caught up with William on a rainy Saturday evening in Vienna, Virginia to talk about his involvement with Downwrite (a service that connects fans and artists to create one-of-a-kind songs), re-living high school memories via music, and why skipping school actually helped him in the long run. Stick around until the end of the show to find out how you can win a William Beckett prize package, including a signed CD! If you like what you hear, be sure to subscribe to the podcast on iTunes so you don’t miss a single episode of the stories behind your favorite songs. Thanks for listening!

Mark Rose (Spitalfield) and Bob Nanna (Braid) stop by to talk about music and their new website Downwrite.com.
