The hard truths about touring

After last weeks more tongue in cheek look at the world of touring this time I take it a bit more seriously and try and examine some of the hard truths about what living on the road can do to you, how it can punish the vulnerable and reward the stoic, inspired by a post sent to me about touring, "the hard truths' I go through the pros and cons, the mental pressure, the health issues, indulgences without responsibility, the rewards and high points of a strange and odd life and how many years it's bound to take off your life!....living on the road APOLOGIES FOR THE RELATIVELY POOR SOUND IN THE SECOND HALF, MIC ISSUES..... speaking of, very shortly I am out with DREAD SOVEREIGN DEC 11 ◆ SWEDEN, Gothenburg, The Abyss DEC 12 ◆ DENMARK, Copenhagen, Rahuset DEC 13 ◆ GERMANY, Hamburg, Bambi Galore DEC 14 ◆ GERMANY, Oldenburg, MTS Records DEC 16 ◆ GERMANY, Erfurt, Club From Hell DEC 17 ◆ GERMANY, Stuttgart, Schwarzer Keiler DEC 18 ◆ AUSTRIA, Salzburg, Rockhouse DEC 19 ◆ GERMANY, Freiburg, Artik DEC 20 ◆ BELGIUM, Diest, Hell DEC 21 ◆ NETHERLANDS, Enschede, Metropool nemtheanga_primordial on the gram support the show over at : https://patreon.com/AlanAverill Primordial on Spotify YES THERE'S A NEW LIVE ALBUM OUT !! https://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQ sponsored by Metal Blade records https://metalblade.indiemerch.com/ promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your order ships worldwide For info on my work as a booking agent go to: https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficial or email alan@dragon-productions.com Primordial cds/lps available from https://www.metalblade.com/primordial/ death metal VERMINOUS SERPENT https://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTA doom DREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXA goth APRILMEN https://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast [http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

I got the gas station Blues.....

In today's podcast I cast a cranky middle aged eye over the whole debacle surrounding the band Vitriol, where members were left at gas stations, tours ended, gofundme's started and tears for the gram....what happened to not doing all your dirty washing in public, is that a thing of the past? or was it always like this, and if I was to be kicked out and left at a gas station every time I misbehaved on tour I'd probably be living in one right now, or at least in the bushes outside..... nemtheanga_primordial on the gram support the show over at : https://patreon.com/AlanAverill Primordial on Spotify YES THERE'S A NEW LIVE ALBUM OUT !! https://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQ sponsored by Metal Blade records https://metalblade.indiemerch.com/ promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your order ships worldwide For info on my work as a booking agent go to: https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficial or email alan@dragon-productions.com Primordial cds/lps available from https://www.metalblade.com/primordial/ death metal VERMINOUS SERPENT https://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTA doom DREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXA goth APRILMEN https://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast [http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

The Black Metal Streisand effect

In today's episode I consider the Streisand effect, how responding to critics and attention can create more noise, how I once gave a lecture in Black Metal once upon a time, would that work now? and how the scene back in the day and it's adoption of extremity was never meant to bear close analysis, a brief discussion of what a live album used to mean.....keep your tongue in your cheek... nemtheanga_primordial on the gram support the show over at : https://patreon.com/AlanAverill Primordial on Spotify YES THERE'S A NEW LIVE ALBUM OUT !! https://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQ sponsored by Metal Blade records https://metalblade.indiemerch.com/ promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your order ships worldwide For info on my work as a booking agent go to: https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficial or email alan@dragon-productions.com Primordial cds/lps available from https://www.metalblade.com/primordial/ death metal VERMINOUS SERPENT https://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTA doom DREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXA goth APRILMEN https://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast [http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
