Ep. 44: Is it really selling out if nobody's buying?

Ep. 44: Is it really selling out if nobody's buying?

For as long as people have been creative, the topic of selling out has also unfortunately been present. Fortunately, for us, we decide to tackle or begin to tackle what it might mean to sell out. Of course we lay down some definitions so that we're not all over the place completely but we also pose some questions and provide examples as to what a sellout in a creative space could be or might not be but we tend to think of them as such because we don't like the direction the creative types are going. Check this one out and catch up with everything we've been watching and listening to!

Ep. 43: Don't call it a comeback, he's been Pete for years + first installation of TRRP Friends Club

Aside from including very cool ponds in our title, we also have a very cool guest once again. Gracing our halls at TRRP compound once again is Mr. Pete Majors! You know him, you love him and you know he's the fabulous host of the Idlewild experimental music festival, and it's third installation and happening in Idlewild California! Make sure to click on all the relevant links we've got up to find out any information you might need before making your way out there and make sure you enjoy yourself and as always, be cool with all of the kitty cats! Additionally, Pete joins us to talk about not just one of our favorite albums but also one of his, coincidentally that album is the Danzig self titled first album, released in 1988. As we wax poetic on the rumblings of one Mr. Glenn Anzalone and Company, this also serves as the introductory episode of the TRRP friends club which is going to serve as a way to invite our friends and talk about albums we all enjoy of course starting with this one. Plus make sure to stick around and catch up with everything we've been watching and listening to aside from Danzig of course!

Ep. 42: TRRP (that's us) reimagines the top 10 American rock bands list!

Here at the Rehearsal Room, you have to know we love making lists and this episode is no different! On this broadcast, we reimagined what it means to be America's top 10 rock bands as it pertains to us… The fellas. You might be surprised at some of our choices and in most cases, you probably won't be if you've caught any of our previous episodes and listened to what we praise and what we don't! Check it out and catch up with what we've been watching!

Ep. 41: Is Record Store Day worth it? Our thoughts!

Record Store Day or RSD, if you're into the whole brevity thing started off as a great idea, to get people's attention back into supporting independent record shops and luckily for us, this also helped bring about the resurgence of vinyl and vinyl collecting a couple of decades ago. But as with every good idea, doesn't always stay as pure as the intent might have been? We do a little digging around and add our collective two cents into the conversation of whether this biannual event is worth it for the consumer and the locations hosting these events. Plus catch up with what we've been watching and listening!

Ep. 40: Do you really want to hurt me as played by the cancel culture club

This week's topic is "cancel culture". We know, we know… There are no other phrases that might deter people quicker than a heart attack. Well maybe "tax season" or maybe "doctors visit "and a favorite "visiting our parents house". Anyway, we don't just start naming people and listing off all the bad things they did even though we kind of do but also we try to get into the thought process of what people mean by cancel culture because it's not just one thing and it hasn't been one thing for a long time. A very long time as you'll find out. And you'll also maybe find out that it's not actually about cancellation since nobody really gets canceled but we've already said the word cancel a whole lot so just listen to the episode. Plus catch up on what we've been listening to and watching!
