Ep 763 : James Hume former Lead Singer of the San Francisco band Roadrunner
Update: 2024-08-12
Description
In 1980 I started hitting the San Francisco Bay Area rock clubs nightly. The Stone , Old Waldorf , Mabuhay Gardens, Uncle Charlie’s, The Phoenix Theater , Keystone Berkeley, Cotati Cabaret. I had a huge thirst for Rock n Roll.
Of course the big bands like Van Halen ,AC/DC , Judas Priest and Ted Nugent would come through town but that was like once a year so you had to find something more out there and that something was a blossoming local rock scene and the early kings of that scene was a band called Roadrunner.
This band absolutely crushed it live and it seemed like over night they were selling out every club in the Bay. By 1985 the band was done.
I will Never forget those days and especially my guest today lead singer of Roadrunner James Hume.
I learned all of my early rock n roll lessons from this band.
I don’t think I’ve talked to James since 1985 so it was an honor to catch up with him and really hear his story.
You may not of heard of Roadrunner but I guarantee you will love the stories. From Metallica opening up for them, Dio trying to get them a record deal and the infamous band house "The Cave"
Dig in my friends and hear some San Francisco Rock History.
