Welcome To The Suburbs
Ride along with two great friends on a road trip through life as they navigate ridiculous detours, side trips and pop culture experiences.
Their humor and undeniable chemistry comes from a two decade friendship, infused with Greg’s experience as a touring comic and sketch comedy writer and Andy’s career as an audio engineer for acts as diverse as John Mellencamp, Aerosmith, and Bob and Tom.
Laughter suppled, snacks not included.

S2 Episode 46: April Wine, Crows Feet, Foreigner When Foreigner Was Foreigner
Andy drove to Nashville, Indiana to see April Wine in concert this fall. He noticed that police cars were abundantly sprinkled along the interstate in construction zones. They had to be prop cops. Surely there weren’t really policemen in those cars. The opening act was Sweet. You may remember their hit Love Is Like Oxygen. Ironically, oxygen tanks were worn as concert apparel by concert goers along with walkers and canes. What is the average age of concert goers when Flomax is the drug of choice?
Greg talked about smuggling southern comfort in the hood of his parka while attending concerts in high school and college. Harder to pull that off for summer shows.
They both snuck cameras in to concerts. Greg’s was confiscated when he pretended to be the paparazzi. Into concert jail it went along with 100’s of bags of pot and liquor. Something the venue staff enjoyed in abundance.
Andy’s question: did you do this when seeing real Foreigner or fake Foreigner? Greg’s response; Foreigner when Foreigner was Foreigner. Are we clear on that?
