Season 8, Episode 1 – Ryan Sorensen from Disraeli Dreamers Part One

Seanorama, FastFretFingers, and CoreyGeek welcomes Ryan Sorensen to the podcast and opens the show talking about the Disraeli Dreamers, the Royal Albert, and Night Moves. They get heavy on the local music scene, the health of it and the health of music venues. They talk about the changes in the laws and how that has changed the makeup of how venues make ends meet. What is the future of the scene and the proliferation of original bands playing tribute shows. What is a Tribute show and what does this mean to the scene? Breaking news: the future of the Disraeli Dreamers and what is next. What are the economics? They break down attendance of these venues and the state of the music industry. What about bands playing covers in their sets? Do Tribute shows have any original material? They discuss pay scales between cover bands, tribute shows and all original shows. Should a cover band replicate what they are covering to a T or take it another direction? And who was that Ozzy Osborne cover band Sean and Todd saw?

Profile picture for Sean McGinity

Sean McGinity

Hi, I am Sean "SeanGeek" McGinity. And I am a geek. For me, the definition of the word geek comes from liking something so much, that I deep dive into it. Not just consuming it... but becoming it. I "geek out". Everything started with comics. I read them and studied them with a fine eye, and then started making my own. Since then, I have "geeked out" on movies (Star Wars The Evil WIthin, Hurt), music writing, recording, and performing (The Classic Embers and Dome), writing (the Symka comic and the upcoming Intuitives novel), and now... this Podcast.

Todd McGinity

Hey guys, SeanGeek here. Just to be clear, this is me geeking out on Todd "FastFretFingers" McGinity here. Todd is the GOAT. My brother is an established musician, mastering the Fretboard with a blistering discipline. If there was a guitar style, tone, pitch... Todd would find a way to replicate it. From his early days mastering Van Halen and Rush, his musical palate has expanded with forays into classical and flamenco, hard rock, blues and pop. From live performances to learning the recording process, when it comes to music, he has done it all.
