In this episode of The Tone Mob Podcast, Blake Wyland is joined by Amico Demuzio—pedal steel guitarist and multi-instrumentalist for Charles Wesley Godwin's band. They dive into Amico's unexpected journey from welding school dropout to full-time touring musician, fueled by a love for lap steel, vintage Peavey amps, and weird-sounding pedals. If you're a gearhead, there's plenty to sink your teeth into: Boss Slicers, Jerry Garcia tones, Kernum pedals, amp plugins that sound freakishly real, and why the pedal steel might be the most emotionally charged instrument in modern music. They also explore the joys of analog gear, silent stages, DIY tone shaping, and whether or not Peavey amps deserve their crusty-but-beautiful comeback. Plus: cold pizza, mushroom foraging (the sober kind), and a few tips for getting started on pedal steel without throwing your back out—or your wallet. Whether you're into country, indie, Americana, or just love a good underdog story, this episode delivers music talk, gear insights, and laughs in equal measure.

Real Estate Investing With Jay Conner, The Private Money Authority
***Guest AppearanceCredits to:https://www.youtube.com/@BlueCollarWealthClub "Becoming a Private Lender with Jay Connerl"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-k2ACFciBk In the world of real estate investing, securing funds efficiently and reliably can be the linchpin to scaling your business. Jay Conner, a seasoned real estate investor and the so-called "Private Money Authority," recently shared his invaluable insights on the Blue Collar Wealth Club podcast with host Jerry Garcia. His journey from banker-dependent investor to private money mogul presents a fascinating story of innovation, resilience, and education.The Turning Point: A Crisis into OpportunityJay's foray into private money was not born out of curiosity but necessity. After six years of relying on traditional bank loans, he faced an unexpected closure of his line of credit in 2009, despite a strong credit history. This abrupt financial crisis pushed him to seek alternative funding methods, leading him to discover private money.In a conversation with a fellow investor, Jay learned about the world of private lending and self-directed IRAs, where individuals can use their retirement funds to invest in real estate for higher returns. This discovery was pivotal. He realized that the key to raising private money lay in educating potential lenders rather than asking for loans.Educate First: The Private Money ProgramJay emphasizes the importance of separating the conversation about potential investments from actual funding requests. His approach is based on teaching individuals about the opportunity to become private lenders. He crafted a comprehensive program that includes competitive interest rates, attractive terms, and robust security measures.By conveying this knowledge through private lender luncheons and one-on-one meetings, Jay effectively secures significant funds without making direct asks. He underscores that desperation has a smell, and by providing information upfront, potential lenders are drawn in by curiosity and interest rather than pressure. This strategy has allowed him to cultivate a network of 47 private lenders, amassing $8.5 million in funds.Building Trust and Offering SecurityFor Jay and his private lenders, trust is paramount. He demonstrates his commitment by securing all loans with real estate, providing a 25% equity cushion to safeguard against market fluctuations. Additionally, lenders are named as mortgagees on insurance policies, ensuring their interests are protected.By acting as the underwriter, Jay guarantees that his deals align with the pre-established terms, eliminating any surprises for lenders. His success in consistently securing private money is rooted in transparency, reliability, and the proactive teaching of financial opportunities.Empowering Business Owners with Private LendingJay extends his insights beyond real estate, suggesting how business owners can leverage private lending. For those seeking to become lenders, he advises knowing the borrower's experience and securing loans wherever possible. For business owners in need of funds, Jay suggests having a well-planned program to present to potential lenders.He highlights the advantage of having funds lined up before they are needed, preventing the desperation-driven pitfalls seen in alternative financing options like merchant cash advances. This approach offers business owners a flexible, lower-cost borrowing option, helping them manage cash flow and growth seamlessly.Beyond Real Estate: A Broader VisionJay's teachings on private money are not confined to real estate. They offer a blueprint for financial empowerment, allow

Ever had a concert experience so powerful it stays with you for decades? Those magical nights when the music and memories fuse together to create something truly unforgettable? That's what we're exploring in this deeply nostalgic journey through legendary concert moments.We kick things off with spontaneous concert adventures from the pre-internet era. Remember when buying tickets meant physically going to a record store and getting whatever seats they handed you? Jim recounts how an impulse decision led to witnessing U2's iconic ‘The Unforgettable Fire' tour at Madison Square Garden in 1985, while Jimmy shares his technique for sneaking into better seats at Atlanta's Omni arena.The narrative shifts to one of rock's most celebrated collaborations - the night jazz saxophonist Branford Marsalis joined the Grateful Dead at Nassau Coliseum in 1990. What began as one song invitation turned into an entire set of improvisation that produced some of the Dead's most transcendent music.We then travel to spring 1995 for a poignant look at Jerry Garcia's final tour. Despite his weakened voice, these Atlanta and Tampa shows represent the last opportunity I had to see the legendary guitarist before his untimely death. The episode isn't just concert tales - it's filled with fascinating musical connections across generations. From The Who's power chords on "I Can't Explain" to Billy Bragg borrowing Simon & Garfunkel's lyrics, we trace the lineage of influence that keeps music in constant conversation with itself.Have you experienced a concert moment that changed everything?

Send us a textSamson “Sam” Grisman has been surrounded by music his entire life. From a young age, he fell in love with the music played around him by family, friends, and especially his father, David.David, a multi-instrumentalist, has performed for decades with and/or alongside Peter Rowan, Red Allen, Maria Muldaur, Darol Anger, Doc Watson, Mike Marshall, Tony Rice, and Andy Statman.David has called his particular stylings “Dawg music,” embracing his nickname, “Dawg.” That nickname was first given to him by close friend and frequent collaborator Jerry Garcia.Music has been so prevalent in Sam's life that from a young age, he assumed everyone played music. He saw people's instruments as part of their personality, and he thought everyone was born with a proclivity towards their instruments.Though he has since realized that learning an instrument comes with time and practice, he has never lost what he considers a sense of duty to perform, and he wholeheartedly embraces the music he grew up around.David always encouraged his children to learn instruments, practice playing other people's songs, and work on original compositions to build their musical experience.

Join us on a captivating journey through the storied history of the counterculture movement with none other than Dennis McNally, the celebrated publicist for the Grateful Dead. Dennis brings his unique perspective to our discussion about the hippie movement's lasting impact on modern society, including the rise of organic food, yoga, and Human rights. With anecdotes from his personal experiences and upcoming book entitled "The Last Great Dream: How Bohemians Became Hippies and Created the Sixties," Dennis provides fascinating insights into the evolution of cultural narratives. Our conversation wanders through the vibrant cultural renaissance of San Francisco, beginning with the poetry explosion of the 1940s. Dennis paints vivid pictures of pivotal moments, like the debut reading of Allen Ginsberg's "Howl" at the Sixth Gallery and the transformative Monterey Pop Festival. Along the way, we uncover how artistic and spiritual connections have shaped icons like Jerry Garcia and influenced movements like the Deadheads, all while reflecting on the delicate balance between personal stories and historical accounts in McNally's work. Dennis also offers a thoughtful exploration of psychedelic substances, from the transformative effects of LSD to the modern implications of ketamine in mental health treatment. As we discuss the commodification of counterculture, we highlight the importance of storytelling in preserving these influential movements for future generations.

Ain't no interview like a GRACE SLICK interview! That's right — the outspoken Rock-and-Roll-Hall-of-Fame singer of Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship, and Starship, and the voice of the psychedelic rock generation and beyond is on the show. Whether she's talking about the playing of great guitar players she has known (everyone from her legendary Airplane/Starship bandmates to other heroes, including Jimi Hendrix and Jerry Garcia) or tackling any other subject under the sun — sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll; '60s counterculture; DeLoreans; Miles Davis; '80s pop culture; hilarious drummer antics (yes, your ears are burning, Donny Baldwin) — Grace is gloriously unfiltered and a true musical treasure. As guitarist of Jefferson Starship since 2012, I was thrilled to finally dive deep into these topics and more with Grace, who — along with her and Paul Kantner's daughter, China Kantner Isler — I've been lucky enough to call a friend for a decade now.

Send us a textDaniel C. Jones has always been drawn to pedal steel guitar. In the early 1970s, he fell in love with the country rock scene at the time. What stuck out to him, though, wasn't the Nashville country scene – it was the alternative country scene.Jones loved the sound of performers such as Jerry Garcia, his project New Riders of the Purple Sage, and Peter E. Kleinow (or “Sneaky Pete”). In 1971, Jones's brother took him to see a performance of Garcia's most well-known band, The Grateful Dead. Waylon Jennings opened that night, joined by Ralph Mooney, pedal steel guitar player for Jennings's group the Waylors.Jones says the instrument called to him because its sound instantly captivated him. Throughout the 1970s, he steadily performed on the road full-time, but by the 1980s, he prioritized his education. He earned a BA in Music from Sonoma State University in California, an MM in Musicology/Music Theory at the University of Colorado (CU) Boulder in 1984, and a Ph.D in Musicology at CU Boulder in 1991.Jones taught musicology at CU Boulder for over twenty years before retiring after the fall 2019 semester. Throughout that time, he performed pedal steel guitar on the side, both by himself and with the instrumental group Standard Deviations.Now, Jones focuses entirely on playing, particularly embracing standards from the Great American Songbook. His original compositions and arrangements are all instrumental, so for him, it's important to find pieces that lie well in the instrument's range.

My guest this week is a legend of American string band music.When David Grisman raised his middle finger to MCA Records, after being dropped for failing to meet arbitrary sales targets, he couldn't have known it would spark a 35-year musical revolution. As one of America's foremost, and best loved, mandolin virtuosos turns 80 this year, he offers a fascinating glimpse into the birth, evolution, and future of Acoustic Disc, the independent label he founded in 1990 that became a vital archive of American string band traditions, as well as home to over three decades of his own music.Grisman's journey from frustrated artist to label founder came at a pivotal moment in music history, as CDs were eclipsing vinyl and the digital revolution loomed on the horizon. He built his own studio, using gear he bought from the iconic 1750 Arch Studios, and Acoustic Disc was born. The label's early success—including Grammy nominations for its first two releases—established a blueprint combining Grisman's new compositions, collaborations with luminaries like Jerry Garcia and Tony Rice, and carefully chosen historical recordings.The switch from physical media to digital distribution liberated both Grisman's creative vision and business model."It's just too beautiful a concept to make one product and sell an infinite number without manufacturing anything," he explains. This shift allows him to release an album every month, including expanded versions of classic recordings with Tony Rice, Jerry Garcia, and others. These "deluxe editions" offer fascinating insights into the creative process behind influential albums like Tone Poems, capturing not just the music but the conversations between master musicians at work.Whether you're a huge Grisman fan, dedicated bluegrass lover or just a fan of acoustic music at its best, Acoustic Disc's extraordinary catalog offers a gateway into America's rich string band traditions.

In this episode of "Tales From The Green Room" Sam Grisman Project mainstays Max Flansburg and Chris English visit with hosts Dennis Strazulo and Tami Larson backstage at Terrapin Crossroads' Sunday Day Dream Vol. 4 in San Rafael, CA. Max Flansburg shares his experience of visiting California for the first time, his musical beginnings in the Finger Lakes region, and joins the roster of stellar guitar players marveling at the mystical encounters surrounding their playing of Jerry Garcia's iconic Alligator Stratocaster, with his own jaw-dropping story! Percussionist extraordinaire Chris English reflects on his rich musical background rooted in a family of pastors, delves into the background of the formation of SGP and describes the emotions of band leader Sam Grisman as he prepared to step in for the ailing Phil Lesh with the day's headliners moments after the interview. Both guests describe the magic moment from the night before when Billy Strings joined the band during their show at the UC Theater in Berkeley along with long-time friend and cross-genre violinist, Alex Hargreaves - adding an exciting twist to the backstage tales told by these fine musicians. It's a perfect warm up for anyone planning to catch SGP shows as they tour the country, and a chance for listeners who have already heard this must-see band to learn more about two of its extraordinary members.

With a focus on simplicity, minimalism and human-powered adventure, Nick Russell embodies what it is to be a free-spirited, big line splitboarder while making a living at it. Russell has eschewed guidebooks for true adventure, hunting for big lines and pow based more on a feeling than a calculation. This organic approach to becoming an expert in the backcountry takes years and more than a couple sandbag missions, but in the process creates a deeper connection with the land and with his comrades. Russell's most recent mission, captured in the Patagonia Films feature Papsura – Peak of Evil, along with his partner Jerry Mark and filmers Morgan Shields and Blake Gordon, claimed a first splitboard descent on an iconic line in the Indian Himalaya, a month-long mission that exceeded all expectations – a rare occurrence PowBot refers to as “The Jerry Effect”, related to the late Jerry Garcia. The boys also chat about the state of public lands in the midst of an onslaught against government agencies, with Russell encouraging listeners to call (202) 224 3121 and tell your local elected officials what you think about the drastic cuts against the Forest Service, National Park Service and Bureau of Land Management.4:45 – Introducing Nick Russell – core lord big mountain splitboarder.8:30 – Follow up to the butt vest discussion – Nick endorses the concept of the butt vest.15:15 – A little more about who Nick Russell is.

The Grateful Dead's last performance at Nassau Coliseum was on March 28th, 1994. And I remember that day as if it were yesterday. My law school study group and I traversed to the Coliseum, scalped front row tickets, and somehow, I made it backstage.The most magical thing occurred: I accidentally bumped into Jerry Garcia, the Dead's iconic frontman, and I convinced Jerry that I worked for my law school's newspaper. He agreed to a brief interview. I never shared the audio version of my conversation with Jerry Garcia publicly until now.The Grateful Dead is one of the most influential bands in history. Between 1965 and 1995, the Dead played over 2,300 concerts across the globe. Jerry Garcia was the leader of the Grateful Dead, a ‘60s counterculture icon who embodied peace, love, and artistic freedom.I hope you enjoy the ride.Order Marc's new book, "Some Future Day: How AI Is Going to Change Everything"Sign up for the Some Future Day Newsletter here: https://marcbeckman.substack.com/Episode Links:Dustin Blank on X: https://x.com/DustinBlankDustin's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dustin-blankElevenLabs: https://elevenlabs.io/To join the conversation, follow Marc Beckman here: YoutubeLinkedInTwitterInstagramTikTok

I couldn't be more psyched for this week's guest, LP Giobbi. LP is an absolute bundle of joy and light and her shows are life-affirming and community-building celebrations that connect us through the common bonds we all share. LP is a DJ, Producer, jazz-pianist and activist. She was one of NPR's Favorite New Musicians of 2023 following her debut album Light Places, and her latest album Dotr, features Danielle Ponder, Portugal. The Man, Alabama Shakes and Holly Bowling, among others. LP has played a multitude of festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, Electric Forest with the likes of Diplo and SofiTukker, just to name a few. She is also well-known in the jam band community for her Dead House performances featuring electronic versions of the music of Grateful Dead, and her stellar 2023 remix of Jerry Garcia's 1972 album, Garcia, is a perfect example of building the bridges that create those common bonds. I talk to LP about her life as a performer and what exactly it has taken (and at what cost) to get to this point, and we also explore her work as an advocate and activist. She founded Femme House, a nonprofit that advocates for gender equity in electronica, heads up her label Yes Yes Yes, and is also Global Music Director for W Hotels. LP is Everywhere, to loosely quote a Dead motto. This is truly one of my favorite interviews, and LP is a bright, shining light that you will learn so much more about through this amazing conversation!!For more information on Roadcase: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email: info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music: "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
