159. LIFERS - Bruce Lamont

The LIFERS Podcast

Bruce Lamont is a lifer’s lifer and a true embodiment of the fabled midwestern work ethic. His band Yakuza is celebrating its 25th year this Sunday at Thalia Hall with a show that will surely feature selections from their latest (and greatest?) album SUTRA. But that’s not all that Bruce has cooking — and Yakuza is far from his only band/project. Oh, no, no, no. If you’re new to the world of Bruce Lamont, you’ve got a lot of fucking listening to do. But fear not! We at The LIFERS Podcast are here to get you up to speed. This week we talk about Dyslexic Apaches, VFW halls, 85 dollar Queensryche shows, Pococurantes, saxophones, car rides with Sanford Parker, bag taxes and syntaxes, bar gigs at SXSW, more Warped Tour misery, and pizza parties with Pantera. As Bruce would say: DO IT!!!
