Podcasts about platinum boys

In this episode of the pod, Elisabeth speaks with Joey Turbo, co-owner of Promises Bar in Milwaukee. Turbo starts the conversation off by reflecting on his experience touring with his band Platinum Boys in Europe, and how the experience solidified for him a new standard of hospitality for touring bands, one that he wished to emulate. Turbo has been making music in bands since the age of 12. He moved to (and fell in love with) Milwaukee when he was 18, and went on to play in the Milwaukee band Platinum Boys, Catacombz, Peroxide, and Rio Turbo — a band that was formed years ago specifically to fill a gap in a bill, and to support another band touring through Milwaukee. Through his diverse experiences, Turbo feels he's been supported, cared for and mentored by many in Milwaukee– and now he is looking to return the favor for the whole community through operating Promises. Turbo reflects on the music scene in Milwaukee: where making music is truly about “the love of the game.” In his view, you don't make music in Milwaukee to get rich — but that there's something more authentic and real about the creativty here, in part because the stakes are so low. And because the music scene isn't known outside of the city, people who come to Milwaukee and experience the quality of what goes on here are often blown away. Through operating Promises, Turbo is trying to make it an affordable experience for customers, and offer a super accessible space for artists to perform and express themselves, work on their craft, and be fairly compensated for their sharing passion. But there's not a particular goal—he's more invested in providing a flexible, continuous space of “happening.” Turbo feels like it's hard to define Promises because so many people have influenced him and contribute to the experience. Ultimately, he hopes that it's a place where everyone can have fun. Turbo hopes that visitors to Promises will come out and find “future old friends, yourself, and a smile -- whether it's on the face or in the heart.” He closes out the interview by stating that he wishes to pass a law (enforceable by each person, and community accountability) for all arts and culture players: that you can create awesomeness if you respect yourself, respect other people, and be cool.

This week, the Platinum Boys assemble to dish about Insomniac's Spider-Man on PS4 as well as look to the horizon at the PlayStation 5 and discuss how Sony can stay on top. Discussed: Animalistic, William Shatner sleep stupors. The changes that Forsaken has brought to Destiny 2 is starting to push even Todd away. Red Dead Redemption. Todd's soft, peasant body is returning to work. Marvel's Spider-Man for PS4. Will Sony's confidence be their downfall as we move into the next generation of consoles and PlayStation 5? If so, what can they do to avoid it?

“Slow Walker came upon the Earth from a multi-dimensional void, in search of the green goddess. They offer harmonic resonance, and only ask for love in return.” Slow Walker’s initial 2011 release — Good For Business — burst onto the scene with its intense punk n roll sound, filled with plenty of pent up energy and just enough sweetness (to sound more melodic than most) and with an added balance of grunge and psych to keep listeners satiated and on their toes. 2016’s quartet lineup of Andy Patterson, Justin Harris, Nick Fulsher and Sam Reitman will see the release of a new cassette on Stale Heat Records (Robert Plantain’s Grunge Lords Vol. 1) and hopefully a continuation of the increasingly psych-ier output (as evidence by their 2014 s/t LP). Slow Walker, alongside likeminded Milwaukee bands — Midnight Reruns, Rashita Joneses, Drugs Dragons and Platinum Boys — are all creating a beer-drenched and sparkling, but muddy, sound that is becoming synonymous with a new generation of Milwaukee rockers.
