It's rare to meet a hero.  

I have been a Tubes fan and, subsequently, a massive Fee Waybill fan by default since I was old enough to understand their music and subversive nature. They were a cosmic force, built in the 60's and unleashed on the world in the 70's. They had it all.  Musicianship, showmanship, and crazy bonkers attitude. There was no stopping them.

Interviewing Fee was a dream and if I have anything to say about it, the dream will continue another day soon. For now, you'll have to be satisfied with what I got until I get more. 

Tied for the number 1 singer in the world, it's Fee Waybill on the Rockstar Superhero Podcast!
