Episode 177 - That One Time On Tour w/ David McWane (Big D And The Kids Table)

 

Apple Podcasts

Today on the program, I got to sit down and chat with Mr. David McWane from Big D And The Kids Table.

I have always been a big ska fan. When I was younger and got into Punk/Ska/Hardcore/Indie Music…to me it was all punk. Growing up in Indiana, underground music was all under the punk umbrella. Big D was always one of the Ska bands that I loved. They had ska parts, punk parts, reggae parts, you name it…they had it.

It was a pleasure chatting with Dave…it had been a very long time since we last spoke. He is such a real, humble, down-to-earth guy. You can tell from our chat how much music and art mean to him…

This brings me to their new record, “Do Your Art” that just dropped via Side One Dummy Records. This record is killer and has all the elements that made me love Big D in the first place.

Their new singles, "Dark Hearts" & “Mercy Brown” are currently available everywhere….
On all the regular music streaming platforms, YouTube, Much Music, MTV, your local public library (*possibly), backstreet speak easies, that one cool record store your town had that actually closed a year ago but you didn’t notice because no one goes out and buys music anymore they just talk about how much they support it, blasting from all your idols, heroes, mentors and gods driving your dream car giving you the finger as they cut you off, several copies have been sent out into other galaxies( -prove it didn’t happen..), greeting cards no one knows what to do with after they’ve been given because they look expensive, Napster, limewire, Myspace, independently run angelfire and geocities fan pages, rare import bootlegs, dark ally dive bars, the BBC, CBC, FOX News, boats, hostage negotiation loud speakers, build-a-bears, barn yards, backyards coast to coast across this beautiful nation you call “____”, malls, anywhere the cool kids who are in the “know” are….

WHERE.

Basically, if you haven’t been listening to and following Fire Sale you’ve been living under a rock (not the cool kind) and mustn’t have any friends…..which is sad although just another reason to go check them out now. Then you’ll have something to talk about once you find (*abduct) some.

Worst case scenario, it’s the perfect soundtrack to crying yourself to sleep in the dark alone because no one cares about your feelings.,


And how about Chris's old bands on Spotify…
