 That Eric Alper Show SiriusXM Host and Publicist, Eric Alper

The gang talks about live music making a huge comeback, why people are upset that Billie Eilish doesn't know who Van Halen is, the huge importance that cultural context plays towards a song and why Eric Alper loves Jerry Lee Lewis, among other things.

Eric Alper had nothing for lunch, but during the show, he was eating Skittles. Because it contained everything that he wanted … “sugar, sugar, and more sugar.” 

Show quote:
“It was an honor and a pleasure and absolutely, let’s do it again.” - Eric Alper

• Rush - Red Barchetta
• Frank Zappa and The Mothers - Camarillo Brillo | 1

Tom Hamilton from Joe Russo's Almost Dead, Ghost Light, Billy & The Kids, Electron & Brothers Past

The gang talks about how intentions are so important when recording music, when music activates parts of your brain that you may be uncomfortable with, focusing on the macro of songwriting and people talking during concerts - among other things.

Tom Hamilton Jr. had an amazing breakfast sandwich with scrambled eggs and pepper ketchup on a potato roll with Korean fried chicken on top of it.

This week the guys talk about the New York Scene of the late 1990s through the 2000s with bands like The Strokes, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Moldy Peaches, LCD Soundsystem, and many more. 

In this week's music news segment "What's Happening?!?!?" the hosts discuss:

David Crosby Dead at 81

• Founding member of The Byrds and Crosby Stills Nash and Young has passed away at age 81.
• His wife released a statement that the folk-rock singer/songwriter died peacefully surrounded by his family after a long illness.
• Crosby released his 8th solo studio album back in 2021 and had spent his whole life creating music and inspiring generations.
• He is credited, along with his bandmates, for progressing folk and rock to where they are today.
• Let us know what your favorite David Crosby song or memory is on Facebook or Instagram.

Boygenius Are Back

• A perfect transition from the sad passing of one of folk rock’s founding fathers to the birth of a modern folk-rock supergroup’s debut album.
• Boygenius, who has often drawn comparisons to Crosby, Stills, and Nash, have announced that they are back and this time we are getting a full record from the band.
• The trio consists of rockstars Julian Baker, Lucy Dacus, and Phoebe Bridgers.
• Over the last couple of years, these Sad Girl Icons have been exploding in popularity.
• Each artist has put out a successful solo album since 2020. Bridgers with her smash hit Punisher in 2020, and with Dacus’ Home Video and Baker’s Little Obvious both released in 2021.
• For the uninitiated, I would recommend checking out the band’s Tiny Desk Concert from 2018. It really highlights the harmonic beauty that happens when these singers combine.
• In the concert, which is available on NPR Music’s YouTube channel, the band performs songs off their 2018 self-titled EP.
• This last week the band made the cover of Rolling Stone, recreating the famous Nirvana pose, and announced their new album, titled the record, which will be out on March 31st 2023.
• 3 songs are available now on streaming services and I would recommend checking them out.
• Each of the bandmates take the lead on one of the tracks, which provides a nice contrast of writing styles in the same musical umbrella.
• We even get a scream from Phoebe on the track $20.

Otoboke Beaver On Tour In the US

• The Scared Fox discusses the 2022 album from the Japanese punk band Otoboke Beaver. 
• The album is called Super Champon and is a very fast and chaotic punk rock experience. 
• The band is playing in Underground Arts in Philadelphia on Feb 24, 2023
• For a sample, take a listen to the song I Don't Dish Out Salads off of Super Champon

NOFX Announce More Dates For Their Farewell Tour

• Legendary Pop Punk Band NOFX have announced additional dates for their farewell tour.
• The LA skater/stoner punk band started in 1983 which makes this their 40th year.
• Last year, Fat Mike announced the band would be breaking up and go on one more massive farewell tour.
• The tour is billed as Punk in Drublic Presents NOFX 40 Years, 40 Cities, 40 Songs Per Day.
• So far the band has announced tour stops in Austin, TX in late April, and then in May the band is playing in San Diego before going oversees to Spain, The UK, Austria, and Germany.
• In late June 2023 the band will be back in the states Sucking Live in Columbus, OH, late July in Tacoma, WA and in late September in San Fransico and St. Petersburg, FL.
• There seems to be a lot of space in between that could be filled with more dates to be announced sometime soon.
• They are bringing other Pop Punk legends on this tour with them, some opening bands include Pennywise, Circle Jerks, Bad Cop/ Bad Cop, Good Riddance, Lagwagon, Mad Caddies, Strung Out, Sick Of It All and Me First and The Gimme Gimmes among others.
• I know I want to go see them live at least one more time, they were my absolute favorite band from 8th grade to like 11th grade.
• I also kinda hope this is a bluff and that they will just casually get back together sometime soon.

The New York Scene

• Now let's move on to our main event for this week, The New York Rock Scene of the 2000s.
• You may not be familiar with this scene but I can guarantee you have heard of most of the bands we are going to be talking about tonight.
• I’ll be honest and say I didn’t really know much about it until a friend of the show suggested I watch Meet Me In The Bathroom. It's a documentary based on a book by Lizzy Goodman.
• Since I’m a music nerd, of course, I bought the audiobook after watching the movie, which I found very entertaining.
• The book is an oral history of the scene, told by some of music’s biggest names. Spoiler alert, the NY scene is basically driven and made popular by The Strokes.
• Some famous artists who tell the stories are Karen O, Moby, Julian Casablanca and the rest of The Strokes, Kimya Dawson, Adam Green, Conor Oberst, as well as members of TV on the Radio, LCD Soundsystem, and Interpol among many others.
• I would recommend checking out the book if you are into music history and if this discussion interests you.

Philip Lassiter is an 11-time Grammy award winning horn/string arranger, and former section leader/arranger of Prince and the New Power Generation.

The gang talks how important a great music video can be, Philip's experience working with Prince, using tools to keep listeners engaged and utilizing horn arrangements to compliment a composition - among another things.

Philip skipped lunch, but had a grilled ham and cheese sandwich dipped in a savory sauce for dinner.

• Chuck Mangione - Feels So Good
• The Bar-Kays - Holy Ghost | 1
• Mark Lettieri - Star Catchers | 2
• US3 - Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia) 
• The Seatbelts - Tank! 
• Bobby Sparks - Horny Dreams | 2
• Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4
• Philip Lassiter - Simmer Down

The gang discusses hyper maximalist music, when a song compels you to take action, how the physical position of an instrument can make all the difference and using your tools as effectively as possible to connect with yourself and the audience, among other things.

Jesse Miller is a Philadelphia-based musician best known as the Bassist, Sampler and Modular Synth player for the instrumental electronic jam band, Lotus.  Lotus has influences of classic electronic dance music, funk, post-rock and dance-rock. Over the years, their unique musical blend of electronica with jam music has helped forge a new path in the jamband landscape, influencing many younger bands in the scene.

The gang talks about the songwriting approach to turn electronic songs into a live instrumental performance, using auto-tune as a tool - not a crutch, when long droning bass parts lend itself to the other parts over top of it, how Jesse's side project 'Octave Cat' came to be, and why Fred Again makes Mike drive around in the car like a sad boy - among other things.

Jesse prepared some latkes the day before so he cooked up a couple of those for lunch but was waiting for some green chili to cook up that he was going to eat after the show.
