From the independent film producer who has to make his or her day despite inclement weather, to the guitar tech changing the umpteenth set of strings on the bus at 2 AM, I’m fascinated by these people and their stories.
That’s where the idea for the short film ROADIE was born.
I released the film in 2004 with the hopes that it would find its way onto the thousands of tour buses crisscrossing each other from venue to venue. A couple of awards and a few buses later, turns out it’s had something of a life of its own.
If you’ve ever wondered who some of those people are in the long list of credits at the end of a movie and how they got there, or who those sweaty guys in black T-shirts are on stage before a concert or what the hell a record producer actually does, then this podcast is for you.
