99: The Wayback #99 | Josh Wolf - Concert Campouts

<div>SPONSOR: Tempo Meals - Get 60% off your first box when you go to <a href="https://www.tempomeals.com/WAYBACK">https://www.tempomeals.com/WAYBACK</a> Josh Wolf is here for his second ride in The Wayback, and this time we do a deep dive on some of the most memorable concerts of our youth in the 80s and 90s (Check out "The Campfire Special" on YouTube and his podcast "Hey Maaan"). First we reminisce about sleeping outside overnight for tickets, and Josh remembers the time he ruined his parachute pants at a Paul Young show. We then get nostalgic about seeing some of the all time greats, like the Beastie Boys, REM, David Lee Roth, The Grateful Dead, Jimmy Buffett, and Lollapalooza '94. Josh then takes us back to his Seattle days, where he witnessed first hand the immense cultural impact of Nirvana and the rise of the grunge scene. Ryan then gets deep on the genius of Jimi Hendrix, and remembers the time he ran into Jimi's bass player, Noel Redding, at a small club in Los Angeles.

<div>SPONSOR: Brunt Workwear - Get $10 off your order by using code WAYBACK at <a href="https://bruntworkwear.com">https://bruntworkwear.com</a> Mike Vecchione is here for his second ride in The Wayback as we cruise through 1980s Youngstown, Ohio (Check out his stand-up Special "Low Income White" on YouTube). Mike gets nostalgic when we visit his childhood home in Canfield, Ohio, and we both recall what it was like walking to school as kids. We then reminisce about the 80s phenomena that was Bon Jovi's "Slippery When Wet," the "satanic panic" around Ozzy Osbourne, and the emergence of other hair bands like Poison and Mötley Crüe. After a quick detour to Ryan's childhood home in Sykesville, Maryland, we also relive some other 80s childhood staples like Mike Tyson pay-per-views and sitcoms like The Jeffersons, Sanford and Son, and Taxi.
