It’s a jammed-packed episode of the non-award-winning Talkin’ Rock podcast. 

The legendary Steve Jones is up first to discuss his upcoming tour. He told me how much he loves touring with this band. We talked about the passing of Ozzy Osbourne, are there any “rock stars” left, and lots more. Really cool to talk with him for the first time. 

Mr. Big’s Eric Martin is next. Yes, he has an Ozzy story also from decades ago. We discussed his vocal idols, the final Mr. Big tour, and more. I love talking to Eric. He’s so easy going. 

Eric has two Michigan shows coming up in Paw Paw on August 7th, and Ludington on August 8th. 

Mark Kendall from Great White wraps up this episode. He told me about getting stranded here in Michigan last week—a true Spinal Tap moment. Yes, we also discussed the upcoming part 2 of that classic movie. Mark also told me about the passing of Jack Russell. He said he and Jack had never gotten in an argument. He went into depth about what he thought was under Jack’s addiction., It was truly a touching, heartfelt moment as Mark talked about addiction. 

Mark and the band are playing the Motor City Casino Soundboard on August 7th with Slaughter.
