In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run.  It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season...  We felt like it needed much more attention.

In the wake of Flickerstick's reunion (long after Soulcracker, Harlow, and Josh Dodes threw in their towels), we have decided to break down this insanely dated time-capsule of what-the-f*ckedness and talk with other touring musicians, friends, and music journalists about what they got wrong and what they got right.

For this episode Ian, Nat, and Ross are joined by the lovely Rayshele of Harlow to celebrate their exit from the show in pt 1 of a 2-parter-party in Tampa.

You can watch every episode of the show for free on youtube HERE.  Catch up and catch the magic.

If you want early access to these episodes (+ the extended version of this episode), head over to the Rigs of Dad Patreon Page where you can also hear more unedited, ad-free interviews with previous guests, patreon exclusives, and beyond! PLUS early access to other episodes.  AND billing has been paused for the month of July.

Ross put out an album under the name COGENTS. It's available wherever you listen to music and highly recommended for those looking to scratch their ambient itch.

Ian has some MUST LISTEN TO MUSIC over at the Interesting Times Gang Bandcamp Page.

Nat and Ian have some tunes you must check out.  Keep up with all things Strangelight by Checking out their BANDCAMP page for all the details.
