EP9 - Poor Old Lu Reunion Shows: Nick Barber, Scott Hunter, Aaron and Jesse Sprinkle

In this conversation, the band members reflect on their recent reunion shows and discuss the emotional impact of performing live after many years apart. They share insights into the preparation process, including rehearsals and song selection. The discussion highlights the genuine connection they feel with their fans and the nostalgia that comes with revisiting their past work.  Ultimately, this talk is a celebration of their musical journey and the lasting significance of their legacy.  Listeners will enjoy a stroll down memory lane, as the band members recount  Jeremy Enigk's (Sunny Day Real Estate) early involvement in making music with the Poor Old Lu guys and what led to his departure.  The faith of many of Poor Old Lu's members has changed since writing their songs in the 90s.  As such, they reflect on playing songs that lyrically no longer represent their current belief systems.  They discuss which albums they are most proud of, why the latest release, "The Waiting Room" (2002), doesn't feel  like part of the “canon" and why a new Poor Old Lu album would.  Can Poor Old Lu fans  anticipate more music from this iconic band that means so much to so many?  Listen to find out.   Join the RosterMusic.Club.
